Commissioners Turk
Believes Saving Of
Taxpayers Money
Important Issue

Coun'y Commissioner Harold
Turk believes that the most i'm
portant issue before Dade County
voters is the saving of taxDaverS'
money in these days of high
prices and high taxes. Turk. a
candidate in the coming Primary
for the seat he now holds or the
County Commission from the 5th
district. is determined to do all he
can to pare down county eXpenses
TO what he terms "an acce ptable
level for the citizens of Dade
County"
"But this does not mean add
ed County Commissioner Turk
"that important Improvements
should be neglected. On the con-
trary, efficient county manage
ment means improved methods of
administration and technology.
There is room for expansion par
ticularly in projects which are
self-supporting. The thing to re-
member is that citizens of Dade
county are already heavily bur-
dened by federal. state, county
and city taxes. Not to mention the
thousand and one hidden ta--
in everything they eat, wear, use
and buy"
Friends and supporters of Coun-
=" Comm 0ner Turk oelieve
'No+ his csmnaign to retain his
seat on the County Commission
will be an overwhelming success
as the economy-m minded commits

TRAVEL BUREAU
SELLS "PACKAGE
TOURS" TO
NASSAU

Returning after three-day
visit to Nassau, Stanley Sweeting
and Charles North, representing
North's Travel Bureau, reported
that this picturesque island city
in the Caribbean continues to be
4 haven for the American tourist
trade. The well known hospitality
and warmth generated by the is
land folk to visitors prevail
throughout this land of the pink
pearls"
Observations by members of the
agency unfolds an enchantment
the island has that serves as a
tourist lure for all nationalities.
Air transportation, with all its
modern conveniences and demo-
cratic atmosphere contribute to
the popularity of Nassau as a
friendly British neighbor.
Seeking further information in
order to encourage Negro tourist
travel to this resort, these repre-
sentatives sought the help of
Nassau's Development Board, an
organization designed to find ways
and means of advertising and
publicizing this tiny capital in the
Bahamian archipelago.
This was made possible by one
of the islands popular figures,
congenial Allen (Baron) Smith,
manager of the Shalimar hotel,
who will serve as special repre-
sentative and key man of North's
Travel Bureaus Nassau head
quarters.
MesSrS Brown and Kiel, direc-
tors of the NDB, promised the
American travel representatives
that full cooperation from that
department is assured.
Sweeting feels the large ma
jority of tourist are bypassing
Nassau for Havana, Haiti and ia
maica, because there has been
neglect in selling" the many ac-
commodationS and entertainment
facilities available in Nassau.
Now North'S Travel Bureau is
prepared and ready to sell pack
age tours (hotel, sightseeing and
eating accomodationS) to all de-
string this type of service.
Assisting Smith in the opera
ton of the Nassau office will be
dapper Uric Ferguson and a host
oI capable native guides.

IT'S ORANGE BLOSSOM
TIME AT CAPE HATTERAS

Buxton. - Hundreds of citrus
fruit trees were budding and some
had burst into full blossom here
this week with summer-like
weather prevailing. The famous
grapefruit tree in Mrs. Maude
Whites yard was peppered with
buds and if each burst into bloom
and produced a grapefruit, the
yield from this much publicized
tree will be the largest in its 10
year history.
Mrs. Loran Barnett's orange
tree which had started from seed
mixed in table scraps that her late
husband had thrown to his pigs
during the mid-thirties was also
in full blossom. Mrs. Barnett's
fruit laden tree was photographed
in December and the pictures
plugging Cape Hatteras and it's
citrus growing enterprises were
publicized from coast to coast.
Tht trees set out two years ago
were also in bud or blossom and
some of those made available three
months ago by the State Depart
ment of Conservation and Develop
ment to residents of this commun-
ity were also showing signs of
budding.

FRESH WATER ANGLERS
INVADE COLINGTON BAYS

Mays Head Colington Island,
location of many fresh water bays,
has been experiencing a sports
fishing boom during the past sew
eral days. Hundreds of anglers
have landed hundreds of large
mouth bass from waters of the
area and the business has meant
much for the residents of these is
land communities where CONNER
cial fishing has been below par
during the past winter.
Most of the male population of
these islands make a livelihood
during the winter months trapping
for muskrats, hauling nets or fish
ing eel-pots. Then during mid
Spring when the large mouths be-
gin taking lures, most of the men
become sportsmen guides.
Small inboard boats and a few
cupboard powered craft are used in
taking the anglers to the best
places TO flSh.
When the black bass begin tax
I ing lures in local waters it is usu-
ally not difficult for an expert
angler to land his limit from the
bays in half hour of casting.
Best catch of the current week
was made by Mayor Pete Moore of
Madison and a party of friends.
They landed total of 10 large
mouths, using silver minnow and
Hawaiian wigglers for lures. Some
were taken with pork-rind added
to the minnow. The largest fish
taken was pound 2 ounce speci-
man, landed by Mayor Moore.

ISUMMERY WEATHER CROWDS
DARE UNITY BEACHES

Mays Head.-Summery weather
last week end resulted in hundreds
OF persons coming to the beaches
of Dare, County, the largest April
throng ever seen here, according to
Ras Westcott, operator of West
colt Enterprises.
Most of the hotels that have been
opened for the season enjoyed good
patronage but there were no full
houses reported. Previously on
Easter week end when several of
the hotels were still to be opened
for the season, some of the hostel
ries, including motor courts filled
to capacity.
Amusement centers were going
full blast here on the week end.
Live orchestras were playing in the
night clubs and the fishing piers
reported fair patronage. Windy
weather made the fishing about as
poor on the week end as it has
been this year, but there were
many anglers here trying to catch
fish from boats, bridges and piers.
One of the attractions on the
eek end were the dogwood
splotched woods of Mays Head,
Kitty Hawk, Duck and Colington
Island. One observer said that
there was more dogwood this year
than ever seen on the Dare coast.
He was referring to the dogwood
