something for the rural people.
Finally, Miss Mary don't know
whether you know this or not,
but I have called Mrs. Scott Miss
Mary" ever since our counting
days more than thirty years ago
told me to either go on and run
for Governor or forget my
dreams.
l ran for Governor; and you,
the people, by your votes, breath

Forward Program. 1t has been
your program since its inception
the program of rural and city
people, recognizing inequalities,
and dedicated to their correction.
In developing and carrying out
any program, teamwork of the
highest order is needed. There
is no proper place in government
for either tempermental star per-
formers or vision-lacking foot
draggers.
Mistakes have been made in
some of the mechanical or ad-
ministrative aspects of our Go
Forward Program, When such
mistakes were detected, steps
were taken to eradicate them-if
this was possible-and if not pos
sible, to reduce to minimum the
ill effects of faulty judgment
The lesson taught by the Para
BILE of the Talents, found in the
Bible, has ben freely used in put
ting flesh and substance on the
body of the Go-Forward Pro
gram.
These buried talents-State
funds not needed for day to-day
operation of your government
State funds lying idle in banks
were dug up, invested, and have
. earned for you more than ten
million dollars in interest.
Your tax dollars were put to
work as rapidly as possible, with
efficiency and economy, to fund
the deficit in services that had
accrued during World War II.
With federal and local coopera-
ton, your state government has,
in the last four years, invested
over three hundred and thirty
one million dollars in permanent
improvements - greatly needed
schols, hospitals, and administra-
tive buildings.
We have built more roads in
the last four years than any other
State ever has in a like period.
We have built both secondary

The press and radio sometime,
critical and sometimes compli
mentary, have been most help
full. My friendships with mem

cemented by our sparring anC

public informed in detail as tc
how its business was being con-
Quoted.
am grateful for the contri-
buttons to the overall program

successfully carried their services

l shall always remember the
cooperation of members of the
Council of State and also the I'M
selfishness of the members of the
team who worked with me to
make the Go-ForWard Program
an instrument of service for all
of you. Thier advice and assis-
lance has been invaluable.
In the days to come, in the
peace and quiet of my Haw River

HE WENT GOOSE HUNTING
AND KILLED SQUIRREL, FOX

Manteo.-Brantley A. Brown
went duck and goose hunting in
the marshlands of Mays Head dur
ing the Christmas holidays and
failed to get any wildfowl. He
did not come back empty handed
though, because he made a per-
feet shot and bagged a squirrel
that crossed his path. Later as he
walked along a grass covered dixie,
he saw what at first he thought
was a mad dog approaching and
he killed it, to discover that in
stead of a dog it was fox. Thus
Brown is probably the only duck
hunter of the year who failed to
get wildfowl but bagged a fox
and squirrel while on his hunt.

CELEBRATION

invited" Captain Midget contin-
ued. "Many of our friends from
the mainland and other island COM
unities will be here this year be-
cause we now have a paved road
from Oregon Inlet southwark to
Hatteras village and there are al
so hotels and boarding houses
where visitors can stop overnight"
Old Christmas Origin
Even Captain Midget will adj
nit that he is not sure about the
true origin of Old Christmas cele-
brations at Rodanthe. Years ago
many of the older communities OBJ
served January 5 as Old Christ
mas here on the North Carolina
coast but today only Rodanthe and
its neighboring community adhere
to the custom.
Folks here will probably agree
with you if it is suggested that
Old Christmas hinges around Epi-
phany, festival of the Christian
Church concentrating the show
ing of the Christ child to the Magi-
Wise Men of the East who follow
ed star to the Bethlehem stable.
Their gifts of gold, franklin
cense and myrrh for the baby
Christ may have started the Gus
tom we have of exchanging gifts
on Old Christmas" said Captain
Midget. Actually it was visiting
newspaper writers who injected the
Epiphany angle to our observance
Our Old Christmas comes on Epi-
phany eve."
Actually, a more logical expla-
nation of why Old Christmas is
observed in Rodanthe on January
5, probably dates back to 1852.
That was the year England and
her colonies adopted the New Style
Calendar, calendar which drop
ped II days for English-ruled
countries during the mid-1Sth CEN
fury.
The New Style calendar was
one created by Pope Gregory XIII
in 1882, replacing the Julian calen-
dar or Old Style which had been
adopted during the days of Julius
Caesar in as A. d.
Only Roman Catholic dominated
countries adhered to the Gregorian
Calendar following it's original
adoption in the late 10th Century.
Pope Gregory's calendar author
lied the dropping of 10 days, MAX
ing the next date after October A
1882, October Is. To properly com
pute time correctly during the fol-
lowing centuries, this Gregorian
calendar directed that three times
in every four hundred years the
leap year arrangement should be
omitted Thus by 1852 when Caro-
lima was an English colony, and
England finally adopted the New
Style or Gregorian calendar it
was necessary to drop IL days.
Many subjects of King George
IL, luCIuulHS MS AMERICAN COlOH-
lists objected to dropping IL days
from the Julian calendar to adopt
the New Style calendar of a 18th
Century Pope. They thought it
was I'M Christian to tamper with
dates, especially their religious
dates.
"Give us back our II days." was
cry heard from certain subjects
throughout the Empire of Great
Britain.
When the II days were not
"given back" many communities
throughout the Old and New World
continued observing Old Christmas.
Through the years the custom was
dropped, except here in the viii
lage of Rodanthe on Hatteras Is
land, where the residents still cele-
brate on January 5, and where
they also celebrate New Christmas
on December %, with stocking
hanging, giving gifts just as they
will be doing again on Monday
night.

Bliss Admits Error
Barred Many Jurors
Over 4-Year Period

E. Goring Bliss, secretary OF
the District Jury Commission,
admitted today in Federal court
his office from 1948 through
1852 had erroneously excluded
approximately 10 per cent of all
persons summoned for jury serv-
ice-those claiming a legal resi-
dence elsewhere who had voted
in a national election within
four years
The admission by the vice
president of the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Co. came
during pre-trial motions in a
case involving Representative
Ernst K. Bramblett, Republican,
of California.
The House member is charged
with padding his office payroll
to the extent of $4,000 from 1850
to 1851.
Revealed in 1852.
Questioned by Defense Attor-
ney Edward Bennett Williams,
the Jury commissioner said the
erroneous practice was brought
to his attention in December,
1852. Col. Bliss explained that
in l948 more authority was dele
gated to the jury commission
staff. He said an honest mis-
understanding" resulted.
Thereafter, Mr.. Bliss said, en-
ployes marked as disqualified any
prospective juror who admitted
Juror voting within four years
of receipt of the jurors queS-
tionnaire.
Residence Was Issue.
Mr.. Bliss said the staff mem
bers should have first passed the
QUESTIONABLE to a member OF the
commission to determine Wheth-
er the Juror was. in fact a resi-
dent of the District before dis
qualifying him merely for voting.
MI. Williams told Judge F.
Dickinson Let's of the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District OF
Columbia the practice was a
complete and systematic eXclu-
sion of qualified class OF
Jurors"
The lawyer said it excluded
from the indicting grand jury the
very class of person into which
his client falls. Mr.. Williams
also said his investigation dis
closed that approximately 10 per
cent of those considered eligible
for jury service were disqualified
for voting in the States.
Claims No Prejudice.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney William Hitz contended ex-
clusion of the voting jurors die
not prejudice Representative
Bramblett. He pointed out that
the courts have held that only
the exclusion of a certain type Of
voter-for instance because o1
his race. creed OF religion-woulc
be illegal.
Judge Let's postponed deci-
sion.
Although hundreds of indict'
mentS were returned by granC
juries during the 1948-1952 pc
riod. only three cases are out
standing. They include th'
Bramblett case, the United State
VS.. United Tankers, ship sail
deal, and an RFC infuence-ped
ding case involving Joseph Ro
senbaum.
Court attaches and attorney
point out that all other case
already handled by juries select
ed under the erroneous system
have been finally concluded
They said the time limit il
which the jury selection ques
ton could be raised has loni
since passed and the conviction
or acquittalS which resulted il
