Buildings to be constructed in

ment structures for establish
ments of this character - bar
racks, mess halls, day rooms, SER
vice club, utility, administrative
and service buildings, and, in ad-
dition, will include temporary
hospital based on camp of ap-
proximately 10000 men. Approx
innate construction cost of this
anti-aircraft firing center which,
it is contemplated, will be ready
for occupancy about March IS,
1941, is about 100000 on a
cash-plus basis.
AS explained by Rep. Graham
A. Barden of the Third North
Carolina district, in which the
cantonment will be located, the
exact place where it will be es-
tablished is in Onslow county, in
the vicinity of Jacksonville, with
the expectation that land will be
acquired in Onslow, Duplin and
Fender counties.

county defaulted on payment OF
some bonds and interest until the
bond refunding program was
worked out and put into opera

At this meeting on the 10th, a
decision relative to re-valuat1on
program for 1941 will probably
be decided.
Many contend now that per-
sonal property taxes are too high
and real estate too low, while
others maintain that both are too
high. In comparison with other
counties, it is pointed out that
Ashe has one of the lowest valua-
tions in North Carolina.

Even aliens who entered the coun-

be prejudiced against them if they
came in since 1924 but register.
