Hargrove Bellamy, who asserted
that the group could not act with

of the picture, letting the airport
manager work directly with the
county commissioners. He charac-
terized the board as IAN authority
without authority" and said air
port employees should be informed
of tn, inability Of the group to
get the pay raise through.
On the other hand Addison Hew-
lett, chairman OF the board Of
commissioners, said it was not
true that the airport board had no
authority. He said the county had
not baked at any proposal nor
interfered in any move made by
the authority.
Another point of sharp disagree
ment arose at the meeting over
whether or not Bluethenthal field

Joseph Norwood, district airport
engineer from Raleigh, said the

across the field from Pennington
