they are trying to collect.
The claims of the colonial peo-
pies are being asserted both in
negotiations and in about shoot
ing battles. The so million peo-
pie of Indonesia fought for
months and finally won pact
from the Dutch that gives them
somewhat more freedom than be-
fore.
In Indo-China, with a popula-
ton of more than 20 million, a
war is going on at the present
time. While the French govern
ment and the autonomous Wet
Nam republic, which it recog-
nized, were negotiating in Paris,
local French forces attacked the
Viet-Nam capital and tried to
wipe out the republic.

WHAT is happening in Indo-
China shows that the colonies
must not only win their freedom
with arms but that they need
arms to keep it. French big bust
ness interests, which exploited
the country for a long time, will
not give in, whatever the Social
list cabinet in Paris may say.
The big industrialists have a
weapon at hand in the famous
Foreign Legion, which in IndO-
China is composed of Nazi ex.
prisoners using American lend
lease arms.
The real owners of such sub
ject countries as India, Burma,
Indonesia and Indo-China are not
the British, Dutch and French
peoples but the great British,
Dutch and French trusts, in all
of which us. trusts have large
holdings. This is reflected in the
treaties" now being offered to
these colonies, which permit them
to fly their own flags and run
certain local affairs but bar them
from disposing of their own re-
sources.

things in that report which
would seem to me to be quite
valid.
TO BE sure, the emphasis
has been placed on corruption

that there is an unsound ad-

data could be deduced is about
twice in the municipal sewage
pollution; or, stated in another
way, industrial wastes comprise
two-thirds of the total pollutional
load of North Carolina streams.
Industrial waste pollution varies
from a minimum of 4 per cent of
the total pollution in the Meherrin-
Chowan river basin to a maximum
of 81 per cent of the total in the
Little Tennessee and Roanoke Ri
e basins, with an overall aver
age of IS per cent for the entire
state"
The report said it was worthy
of note that the pulp and paper
industry, the largest waste pro-
ducing industry in the state, treats
it's waste to a higher degree than
any other. Because of the large
volume, none of the pulp and pa
per waste is discharged to NUM-
cipal sewage treatment plants"
A measure by Rep. Wilson of
Caldwell would allow persons err
r%oneously convicted of felonies and
later pardoned to petition the state
for remuneration not to exceed
$500 for each year of imprison-
ment and a total of not more than
S.. 900.

PROBING
THREE BREAK-INS
Robberies In Different Sec.
tons Of City Reported
Yesterday

City police were last night in
vestigating three break-ins which
occurred yesterday in scattered
parts of Wilmington, and the
opinion was expressed by officers
conducting the investigation that
at least two were connected.
Mrs. Marie Burchelle of 2211
Princess street said someone enter
ed her home through a rear door
and ransacked the house, taking
a 12-pound baked ham, a ladies'
yellow gold watch, a mans white
gold watch and a mans suit.
The second break-in reported by
police occurred at 600 Central
Blvd, where the house of F. W.
Copeland was entered, likewise
through a rear door. Copeland's
house was ransacked, police said,
and $40 in money was taken from
a child's bank. Also stolen during
the robbery was a camera.
Also entered yesterday was a
house at 1851 Jefferson street
which was occupied by Wallace
Pruitt. The thief or thieves enter
ed by use of a key, officers said
and household goods, food, silver
ware and china taken.

Wilmingtonians Attend
Preuiew OfNew Picture

Over 100 Wilmington educators,
pastors, industrial executives, pro-
fessional men, civic leaders and
their wives met North Carolina"
last night in witnessing the tenth
and last Of the special previews of
Meet North Carolina" the sound
color travelogue produced by the
Standard Oh Company Of New
Jersey.
The showing of the film was held
Immediately following a dinner in
the banquet hall of the Friendly
cafeteria, with the Standard Oil
company as hosts. Arrangements
for the exhibition and banquet
we're made by Morrison w. Divine,
local sales representative.
B. L.. Frye of Raleigh, manager
Of the Raleigh district, and toast
master for the occasion, stated
that the company made the film
in order to make North Carolina
better known to others and to re-
acquaint Tar Heels with the scenic
beauty and advantages the state
has to offer. Fifty copies of the
film are to be made for later
showings to civic clubs, churches,
schools, and other organizations
throughout the state, he said. The
movie will be in Wilmington the
week of March II.
J. Laurens Wright of Charlotte,
formerly of Wilmington, division
manager of the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey, introduced
the film, which runs approximately

Along The Cape Fear

The Tory leaders were imprlson-
ed, some being sent out of the
colony. and the soldiers were pa
rolled to their homes.
1t is difficult to believe how low
the Patriots casualties we're in
this famous engagement. Only one
man was lost. He was MORALLY
wounded during the engagement
and died four days later.
The Battle of Moores Creek did
much to shatter the confidence OF
the British and proved a major
boost to the spirits OF the Patriots
who at that time still faced many
long weary years of var before
Americas independence was to be
won.
Truly a visit c to Moores Greek
National Military Park, the scene
of one of the most important mill
tary engagements in North Ameri-
ca, would be well worth your time.

Other Charlotte officials attend
ing the preview were H. Tom Saw

manager; and Jerry Ball, who was
in charge of operating the projec.
tor.
Scenes of Wilmington in the
travelogue include one of a ship
steaming up the Cape Fear and
an air view of the city.
WrightsviIle Beach also features
in the film with scenes of Lumina,
surf bathers crowding the beach,
fishing in the surf, from the piers
and from boats, the Ocean Terrace
hotel, sailing, motor boating, water
skiing and boat racing.
The film is also to be used by
the Department of Conservation
and Development in its advertising
program.
At the end of the showing, J. E.
L. Wade, local realtor, speaking
for himself and other invited
guests, expressed appreciation to
the Standard Oil company for the
producing of the film and making
possible the special preview show
ing. He also stated that he hoped
that some plan could be worked
out whereby the travelogue of
North Carolina could be shown
over the nation and that like films
Of other states could be shown

charged, despite the fact I voted
for his acquittal."
He said he felt that the state
should have put Harry Fales, head
of the City-C County Identification
Bureau, on the stand.
Fales first was connected with
the case when Grissett was ar
rested last January 18.
eff Mr.. Fales had been put on
the stand, some of the jurors
wouldn't have had that to talk
about"
He said that the charges of mis-
treatment of Grissett, made by the
defense during the course of the
trial, were not discussed. THAT
had nothing to do with the verdict.
Neither we're the newspapers dis
cussed.

gest part in his acquittal was the
state dropping the aking
charge" he said.

was on the case, and Il told them
everything I knew so that 1 could
