Don't Start This

The Lost Colony agltatOrS are max
ing Roadway in their effort to have
the Roanoke Island pageant sub
sidIled by the State, which is dis
tnClly a step in the wrong direction
and which ma lead to greater de-
mands and more trouble both from
that and Other sources later on.
There isn't any more reason why
this great spectacle should be guar
anteed against deficits than several
or al! the others of d kindred nature
that are held annually in North
Carolina. Maybe it is not too ate
for our representatives to start an
agitation for substituting OF Hender-
sons forthcoming centennial celebra-
ton. for that also will have a definite
historical aspect.
The Lost Colony. as magnificent as
if is. should stand on its OWn or not
stand at all, 50 far as the State is
concerned. II has brought thousands
80 ~
Of visitors to the State and has been
a marvellous publicity and develop
mert stunt for the coastal county, but
that is no more justification for
subsidy than would be claims Tor
ether sections which also are rich in
historic lore and background,
Governor Broughton has been won
over to the subsidy idea, with some
reservations. and from there on the
sailing should be through calm seas.
FGr our part. We think the
Lost Colony pageant one of the very
finest things eVer undertaken IN
North Carolina. at least of its kind.
Adlectives are not squandered
when employed in describing the
spectacle. 1t is at once inspiring, IN
formative. educational and a lot of
other nice things that could be said
about it without the least bit of
exaggeration.
But the State simply shouldn't go
into the show business. That is not
the function of government.
