heavy material loss Business consider that trade

failure of our population to increase.

The success of the Dare County Teen-Age Club which
meets in the Community Building here each Saturday night
has surpassed everyones expectations teenagers

it's excellent place for their children to be- The one un

SO-CALLED THINKERS PLUG
FOR GOOSE-STEP SOCIETY
Chester, Pa. Times)

A contrast between the social
ed "intellectuals" of this goth
century with those of the 18th
and 10Th centuries is pointed up
by George S. Schuyler, writing
in The Freeman Magazine.
Progressively for the past
half-century or more the artists,
writer's, scholars, teachers and
professionals have boarded the
bandwagon of totalitarianism, ell
oquently advocating a goose-step-
ping society in which production,
distribution, exchange, education
and recreation again will be con-
trolled by a tiny minority in the
name of all the people," writes
Schuyler.
''This Utopia has been describ-
ed variously as socialism, COM
munism, facism, nazism and plan
ned economy, but it all adds up
to the same thing. In the 18th
century this was called autocra-
cy. Today it is called democracy"
The intellectuals, through their
writings and leadership, paced an
emancipation of the slaves of gov
ernments, rulers and other auto
Gratis of the 18th and 10Th cen
turtles. Many of today's so-called
intellectuals are setting the pace
for return to a slavery of a far
worse type, Schuyler contends. It's
an interesting observation with a
lot of validity.

VIRGINIA BEACH
CLEANS up?
(In the Norfolk Virginian-Pi


lin the Norfolk Virginian-Pilo
The best news in a long while
from Virginia Beach is the ex-
preston of confidence from Mr..
Charles w. Gardner, president of
the Virginia Beach Hotel and Cot
tage Association, that the win
ter's change in moral climate will
extend through the summer. Mr..
Gardeners full statement appears
in the letter column today, but
one section deserves repeating,
and also community support. Says
Mr.. Gardner:
You and any others who may
be watching this town will see
by our actions that we want ant
will have a balanced resort.
You will also find that talk has
been changed to action. No mat
ter how much pressure is
brought to bear by certain peo-
pie to change this new condi-
ton back to the old, they will
not succeed because we are uni
fed in opposing them and uni
fed in our desires to make Vir-
ginia Beach a leading and out
standing resort in this country.
That is saying something. 1t of
fers real hope that a break has
been made in the old pattern of 9
raid in May before the real sea-
son begins); State ABC Board
raid in mid-August (when the
heart of the season is about ov-
er) and great furry of right
eous activity later in the year
when the big season is over.
Besides the fact that all of Vir-
ginia, and especially the Norfolk
area, is interested in the charac-
ter and prosperity of Virginia
Beach, there is an especial reason
why community decision must
be made now. The impossible is
happening in other resorts. The
Kefauver Senate Committee In
vestigation is actually running the
gangsters and major crime lead
ers out of such resorts as Tampa
and Miami. WHERE WILL THEY
GO NEXT? A non-comprising at
titude is needed if they are to be
kept out of Virginia Beach. An
easy-going attitude will invite
them.
Virginia Beach, however, can
not act with complete independ-
ence even with it's new determine
ton. Geographically, it is enfold-
ed by Princess Anne County. Ec-
onomically, politically and social
ly it is integrated with Princess
Anne County. It must look to the
county to reinforce the beachhead.
Mr.. Gardner, as president of a
powerful resort trade association,
has spoken for VIRGINIA Beach.
Can anybody speak for Princess
Anne County?

LEND A HELPING HAND

(In the williamson Enterprise)
If any organization or agency
ever needed a helping hand, the
March Of Dimes needs it in Mar

"snipers" have not even dared at
tack, for they know there have
been no provisions, ifs or butts
about the work.
Last year Martin County had
two infantile paralysis cases-one
a colored child near Oak City and
the other was a white child in
Cross Roads Township. The In
fantile Paralysis Fund in Martin
County was opened to both with

were determined. One of the child
rem was in Central Carolina Con-
valescent Hospital, Greensboro.

The other one was treated in a
Raleigh Hospital.
During last year the Fund in
this county spent $2,944.55 for the
care Of those children. At the pre-
sent time, the Fund owes S275.OO
