Raleigh, Jan. 30.-Ocean sport fish
ING along the North Carolina coast is
attracting more and more attention
in the northern and eastern states,
according to Raymond Camp, rod and
gun editor of the New York Times
and outdoor commentator for the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company net
work
Camp, with Walt Willis, hunting
and fishing commentator for radio
station WIN in New York City,
have been hunting in Wayne county.
During the past year my broad
casts have contained an increasing
amount of material about outdoor
sports in North Carolina Camp
said. 1--WE think North Carolina's
campaign to promote more sport
fishing is one of the best in the
country and the responses of sports
men has been very good. Sport fish
ing off your coast is undoubtedly go
ing to be major industry within the
next few years, provided the sports
men are attracted your way They
are already travelling across several
other states to come all the way to
North Carolina for surf casting and
sea fishing, due to the fact that sew
eral intermediate states have not
been as a.ert as North Carolina in
giving publicity to their coastal fish
ing"
Camps hunting and fishing broad
casts are sent out over a network of
% MIC stations.
Willis also reaches a very large
radio audience. He asked the news
bureau Of the advertising division
here to tell him just when the drum
or channel bass and blue fishing
starts next spring.
''The first night I broadcast the
news that the drum and blues are
running off the Nc; Carolina coast,
I Wi | get hundreds of requests for
additional information" he said.
Last year he sent hundreds of sports
fishermen to Manteo, Ocracoke, More
head City, Beaufort, Wilmington,
Southport and other points. 1t is al
ready getting so that when fisher
men think of drum they think of
North Carolina.

RV LYNN NISRET

Raleigh, Jan. O-Adverting to
charges that the Petroleum inter
csts" arc financing the lobby against
diversion of highway funds, an anti
diversionist yesterday called the roll
or the various groups, associations
and clubs which have resoluted or
programmed against diversion, and
then asked:
Who is financing the pro-diver-
sion campaign"
He went on to explain that the
burden of the diversion fight is be-
ing borne by State officials and en-
rloyees, whose salaries are paid out
OF public funds, which in turn have
been collected largely from the very
same groups which are supporting
the anti-diversion idea.
Led by the Highway Users Confer
cnce, composed largely of the indus
tries operating large fleets of trucks,
which are the identical industries
contributing the major part of the
revenue taxes, the anti-diversionists
contend that they are being forced to
finance both sides of the argument.
Then, too, such groups as the Grange
CHC Nuldl LcIIeI CARRIERS, HOIOI
clubs, etc., are made up of the peo-
pie who pay millions in sales taxes,
all of which goes into the general
fund out of which salaries of the pro-
diversionists are paid.
This may he begging the ques-
tion," but it is at least something to
think about while driving along
burning gasoline the tax on which
| started all the fuss.

Oil Interests Helping.
The petroleum interests have IN
dOubtedly contributed heavily to f.
nancing the anti-diversion campaign,
but Capus Waynick, former highway
chairman and now High Point En-
terprise editor, wrote of the battle: 'It
is fight in which every road user
and road taxpayer is interested"
HOey Leads DiversiOnists.
Lined up On the other side, favor
ing diversion, is the powerful State
administration, commanded by elo-
quent and popular Governor Clyde r.
Hoey. !.
{ This group contends that gasoline
should no more be exempted from the
State sales tax than any other pro
duct; insists that no real diversion is
threatened beyond the application of

system within the State, and for the
payment of the highway debt Obliga
tons, and there shall be no transfer
of such funds to the general fund of
the State of North Carolina.
In Ranks OF Ants.
Arrayed behind this resolution is the
anti-diversion army made up of di-
versified group of organizations and
individuals, who contend vehemently
that special funds collected from a
specific group for specified purposes
should be kept intact and spent wholly
for those purposes. - :.
Efforts have been made by the di-
versionists to impeach the motives of
their foe by reiteration of the charge
that the anti-diversion cause is father
ed by the petroleum interests"
Friends of Diversion.
These efforts, however, are refuted
by a list of organizations which have
openly announced their opposition to
diversion, many of these being dis
connected with or even ininaical to the
petroleum group. "A. partial list in
cludes the EasternA North Carolina
Chamber of Commerce, the North
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-01-30

this tax to gasoline and transfer of
the resulting funds to the general
fund in case of need; and lays great
emphasis on the danger of shutting
off the general fund from any high
way fund aid in case of emergency.
It's leaders have frankly admitted,
however, that the entire budget policy
for the next biennium is based on an
estimated need to transfer $7,OOO,OOO
from highway to general fund.
Opponents point to this as ilagrant
and open diversion in view of the fact
that there is now no contention or
pretense of an emergency which
might justify taking money from the
road funds.
Feverish Activity.
Both sides have been almost fever
ish in their activities for the last
week. Legislators have been flooded
with letters and kilograms from back
home" urging them to oppose all high
way fund transfers. Practically every
night the air has been filled with the
torrid oratory of radio speakers cp-
posing diversion. House and Senate
members have been checked and re-
! checked, button holed and re-button
holcd.
On the other side, the governor has
lost not one opportunity to hammer
away at the anti-diversionists and to
state and re-state his position. In at
least two public addresses last weel1,
| one to q civic club in Burlington the
other on the dedication CT new news
paper Luiiding in Asheviilc, he made
it the principal item of his speeches.
And that's the background of the
| hearing which will be held Tuesday
as the final stage Of the diversion bat
tie begins.
How long the fight will last and
what the ultimate result will be can
not be predicted. 81.
Big Crowd fer Hearing.
There are certain things which are
abundantly clear, however, For in
stance, that the Tuesday hearing will
! be attended by large, and perhaps
tumultuous, crowd. Anti-diversionists
are using every means in their power
! to whip up enthusiasm for the oc-
casion.
Publicly they have made no predic-
tons as to the size of the crowd eX-
pected, but in private conversations
| they give sincere, if a trifle optimis-
tic, indications that they expect al
least 5000 to invade Raleigh and are
hopeful the figure will go twice that
high. They admit that weather con-
ditions may be a deciding factor on
that count, and accordingly are max
ing no open boasts.
Governor Has Final Say.
After all this tumult and shouting
have died, Governor Hoey will go be-
i fore the Assembly, and on the air, in
an effort to counterfeit all the &C
cumulated effect Of anti-diversion ar
guments before and during the hear
ing. He is expected to re-state the po-
sition he has so often stated already
that there is nothing sacred about
gasoline taxes, that they should be
subject to sales tax as other products
i that there need be mo fear of trans
fers in excess Of the. sales tax amounts
that care Of the States highway sys-
tenn is safe in his hands, and that the
] only way to balance the States bulge
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-01-30

is to. authorize the $7OOoOOo transfers
in case of necessity.
And when all is said and done, that
final argument is likely to be de-
cisive of the outcome, for it is com
pletely obvious and needs no argu-
ment that if the good roads bin is
adopted, the legislators will be faced
with the stern necessity of Cd rails
ing revenue from new sources or (2)
cutting appropriations or 90 both.
Anti-diversionists contend this is
what the lawmakers ought to do and
brand the taking Of highway funds
as rather spineless following of the
line of least resistance.
