that wartime controls on

This decontrol action in the

Eccles, speaking in Boston, said
the Reserve board has "felt for

ONE AND ONLY - Readers of
Along The Cape Fear did not have
to wait until today for the Federal
government to release its special
census of Wilmington to learn that
the city boosted a lone actor.
This choice expose was made
several weeks ago, but that's far
from all the information to be
cleaned from the 26-page bulletin
that answers many a question con-
corning the Port City along the

Despite the fact that the poor

gentler sex, there being 25,372 of

strangle hold on many of the
cultural aspects Of the city's life.
NO ACTRESSES - Not a single

the Census Bureaus count is cor

of the ladies as far as the trade or

Her husband is around 26.
Chances are that he works

The husband would most
likely be a craftsman or q
