GOALS IMPORTANCE - For
the third time since the war
ended the nation is concerned
about coal production. The Am
erican public is beginning to
realize the Importance of full
production to the nations well
fare. Everyone,s livelihood is in
some measure tied to steady
production of coal - even ag-
riculture's, as w. c.. Stolk, vice
president of American Can
Company, reminds us. The
prospect of supplying the full
metal container needs of Gust
omers the rest of this year and
OF having cans in 1948 for ev-
erone who has had to resort
to substitute packages depends
on continued steel production,
he warned. A long Stoppage of
steel production caused by
failure to resume coal mining
promptly after the holiday, he
said, would be a threat to the
late season canning crops"

Volunteers Needed

When New Hanover county had been
well organized for civilian defense and
the regular units were set up and func-
{ tioning, it was found that many persons
were unable for one reason or another
to devote the required time to any of
the services. For their benefit a special
registration was conducted and some
thousands of men and women were list
ed, their special aptitudes catalogued
and notation made of the periods they
might be called upon for volunteer SER
vice.
Now that the war is over and civil
liam defense a pleasant memory, it is
established that another need for volun-
teer work exists in a variety of activi-
ties. This time it is the Community
Chest that issues the call.
Under sponsorship and direction of
the Social Service League next week
is to be devoted to the registration of
f. all persons willing to devote a part OF
: their time to volunteer service for any
of the Chests member organizations.
The young women Of the Service
League have given of their time and eff
fort without stint in organizing for this
registration. They we'll deserve high

Contradictory Proposals

Ii we assume that general price levels
include only a fair margin of profit for
the manufacturer or producer and the
merchant, President Truman's appeal in
his economic message for a reduction in
prices is not justified. This assumption,
which is merely that and nothing more,
does not take into consideration specific
cases where the public has been SUBJ
jected to gouging.
On the other hand, and granting for
the sake Of argument, that prevailing
high price levels are due, at least in a
considerable part, to wage increases
during the war period, chiefly as a re-
suit of labor strikes, the Presidents ap-
peal to labor to seek only moderate

The Governors Message

I Governor Cherry's address to the
legislature contains proposals that well

ttion.
/, For example he urges a uniform 20
per cent increase in salaries of teachers
J and all state employees. One group in
the states educational circles insists
this is too small. It demands not less
than 40 per cent. A stubborn battle is
ss1indicated before any bill on salaries can
be passed.
MIR. Cherry calls for careful con-
sideration of the proposed good health
program-an essential need in the state;
for a ten million dollar increase in the
reserve fund, obviously with the inten.
ton of tiding the state over any recess

and out of any appropriation made for

In this connection, and with fine
common sense, he urges that the row.

sion be given authority to so spend the
money that a dollars value can be had
for each dollar spent" 1t is to be re-
membered that a dollars purchasing
power is no greater for the state than
! for any individual. 1t will be in the in
terest of the taxpayer if Mr.. Cherry's
proposal that he and the commission

act as watchdogs over the treasury re-
ceives legislative approval. They can
he trusted not to follow a niggardly
policy in expenditures.
The Governor also recommends that
"a thorough study be made to learn if
the state can be of greater assistance
to the veterans, that a broader highway
safety program, with an increase in the
highway patrol force, be instituted, and,
Of primary Importance, that the state
maintain a balanced budget.
Altogether, the message is sound. If
the legislature accepts a majority of
his suggestions. the Cherry administra-
ton will prove one of notable achieve
ment.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-01-10

further increases inevitably would make
it impossible to lower prices.
The two proposals contradict each
other.
While there is a decided inclination
among republicans in Congress to write
their own budget, Mr.. Humans pro-
posal that taxation be left at it's present
rates in the interest of reducing the
national debt ought to be adopted, how
ever heavy the burden is.

dolin and guitar. The play, which
has been given by Army and anna
teur groups, is available in More
by Corwin," published by Holt in
1914.
The radio drama took 80 minutes
to play and, Corwin recalls, per-
haps a week to write. He earned
his share of the prize money, he
says, principally by complying
with Rogers request to submit
some dramatic writings of suitable
length. Up to 10 days before the
premiere, composer and librettist
had met only twice.
Despite the radio source of the
script, the opera definitely was not
written for the radio, Rogers en-
phas yes. Born in New York city, he
has held Pulitzer and Guggenheim
awards, and has recently become a
member of the National Institute OF
Arts and letters. Corwin, born in
Boston, figured most recently in the
news as the round-the-World envoy
OF the Willkie Memorial of Free
dom house and the Common Coun-
Gil for American unity.

A rookie was coming out of the

cone held in his right hand. His
frantic attempts to change hands
and salute when a staff car rolled
by were disastrous to the cone
which plopped to the ground. To

Airport Needs

Airport Needs
Despite the tremendous federal in
vestment in the Wilmington airport, the
unsurpassed quality of it's runways,
favorable weather and other natural
advantages, the plant can not achieve
real success so long as it must operate
on a shoestring.
The pinch-penny policy that has pre-
vailed since the county took it over
makes for failure.
Wilmington has such an opportunity
to develop the airport and attract not
only greater use by commercial lines
but large patronage by private plane
owners as will never come again. But
it must be recognized that it is not a
continuous or self-perpetuating oppor-
tunity.
Unless advantage is taken of it
promptly it will pass and the COM
munity lapse back to the prewar situa-
ton, before the Army took over and
built the field into one of the finest on
the Atlantic seaboard. In those days,
and after years of effort, the field was
SO far below par that few private planes
and no airlines stopped. The fight for
air mail service was stubbornly carried
through a decade of failure.
Now, to be sure, the airport is on
the schedule of several commercial
lines, we have air mail, we get an &C.
%casional private plane, but its utiliza-
ton is under par because customary
~convenlences have not been provided.
There is essential need for an ad-
mlnistration building and for an apron
on which planes may be Unanswered
for loading and fueling. If they were
available, regular flights through Will
mngton would multiply. During our
long summer innumerable private
planes bearing vacationists would land.
This is not mere speculation. The
Airport Authority has proof of it's &C.
curacy. So positive it it's proof that
those directly concerned with operation
are constantly discouraged in their ef-
tort to build up normal patronage.
1t is no wonder that members of the
Authority should suggest some indie
pendent control of the field be set when
the administration makes an issue of
small Increases in pay for field en-
Eployes and ignores the major need for
adequate field accommodations.
There is no sound reason to doubt
that the airport can be made to paw
handsomely, but not until needed i'm

Profits result from wise investment.
The county administration cannot

better prospect of good revenue, than in
installing the needed improvements at

need, it canpot do better than step out
