vice and guidance on budgetry

The very suggestion of addition

tests. Only those who kept up with
Eday-by-day developments in the
situation realize how vicious this
GROUP became and how hard we
had to work to hold the program

In the end, the General Assemb-
lily, branded far and wide as the

aside the low estimates of revenue
and adopted their own, which ex-
ceeded the estimated budget fig

All this fighting and squabbling

to be part.

House at a morning session, those
working to kill the amendment ad-
vised me they had 81 votes pledged,
or more than enough to assure
defeat of the proposal. These lead
ers then tried to work out COM
promise, but their efforts were to
no avail. They, the proponents,
made a last-minute check the next
morning to see if they could
change any votes. Then, and only
then, did they decide to withdraw
the amendment.
One of the senators who helped
draft the amendment advised me
that Mr.. Coltrane was requested
to take up the matter of the
amendment with me in advance.
COltrane did not take it up with
me despite the fact l had appoint
ed him as my assistant in all mat
tiers relating to the budget. He
later told me he did not think /
cared and that it would relieve
the Governors Office of a lot of
work and responsibility.
Coltrane claims he was not a
party to the drafting; and yet he,
my assistant, knew about it and
neglected to advise me that the
plan was afoot.
l find it hard to believe that
Dave is either Intellectually dis
honest or a traitor. It is evident,
however, that he has permitted his
vision and acts to become warped
by constant pressure and thus has
destroyed his usefulness in carry

In doing so he has not measur-

A SOUND STATEMENT WHY SCOTT
ASKED COLTRANE'S RESIGNATION
BY w. KERR SCOTT, Governor Of North Carolina

trative heads appointed by him are
responsible to him to carry out the
policies and programs he has sub
mitted to the people and which
have been approved by the people.
When l have made mistakes in
judgment or in men, l have at
tempted to correct those mistakes.
In requesting the resignation of
the Assistant Director of the Bud
get, / have done just that. Mr..
Coltrane has not the vision, and
he has not kept pace with the tenn
pc of the "Go-Forward" admins
tration.
During the early months of this
administration l continually urged
the Assistant Director of the Bud
get to push with the business at
hand and not to bubble over minor
details. Despite these urgings and
warnings, some building contracts
were held up and refigured for
reasons which have proved I'M
sound. In some cases these pro-
jects are not even started. / cite
as an example that stands out in
my mind the addition to the Agri-
culture building.
The original plans for this build
ing called for six floors. The first
bids were recalled and the plans
revised for seven floors. By the
time this was done and bids cal
led for again, prices had gone up
and there was not enough money
available to build even six floors;
so additional funds were sought
and made available to build
the six floors. By this time,
the Korean War was under
way, and the project was halted
by the Tightening of priorities.
This building, thus, has not yet
been started, while the new high
way building, which was adver-

North Carolina government is
big business. In dealing with its
operations and problems, it must
be treated as such if our state is
to remain sound. The head of any
business must have men associa-
ted with him upon whose judg-
ment and loyalty he can rely.
In requesting the resignation of

course that any head of a business
organization would have taken I'M
