LISTEN AMERICANS!
:. by George S. Benson
prssLdsns - HsrdsnG college

For the past 20 years government spending on war and
defense preparation has been the major stimulus for the
American economy In those 20 the government has
spent SITS billion which is 10 times than the total
amount of money in circulation in the entire world.
This huge spending made the federal government a ire
mendous factor in the nations economic life 1t cannot
tnue indefinitely to play this dominant role without break
ing down the economic and political institutions that have
made freedom and prosperity possible
Forty years the federal government spent two
cent of the national income Twenty years spent 10
per cent and today is spending 25 per cent If the people
of America to permit it. this percentage would
strcted Studies that taxation goes much
beyond 25 per all freedom affected And history shows
that government will constantly in size and power
unless the people put on the brakes.
In the 20 years of big spending the family bread-win
earning $4,000 year his income taxes jump from
S44 to $488 year The $4,000 income of 20 years ago
taxed $500 today it's taxed $500 On his $160000
income, President Eisenhower pays $4,000 income
Tax rates such these put heavy yoke ambition
and cripple the profit motive that has spanked nations
progress. They would be permissible for short time in
IRENE national emergency, but otherwise they detr
mental to freedom and progress
1t is true that in the last 20 years American industry
expanded But the has been stimulated largely
the federal governments huge expenditures We
dare not accept economy longer than is absolutely
nance becoming permanent The transition away from this
dominance should begin AS the shift made private
enterprise expand normally and whoesomey tax
that incentive for investment is restored Given
normal incentive the private enterprise system will carry
nation to higher and higher living Standards whereas
government dominated system would shortly begin lower
ing our standard of living.

More Teachers And
Schools Are Needed

The necessity Of more teachers
and schools was cited in an adj
dress by DR.. Thomas G. Pullen, Jr.,
before the Maryland teachers at
their annual convention in Balti-
more last Friday.
He sketched the problem in these
round numbers:
In the next six years, there will
be 80 per cent enrolment increase
in the public schools.
There are now about 100000
youngsters in the schools. This
number will increase at the rate
of 24,000 to $4,000 in each of the
next six years. That will mean a
total of about 100000 additional
pupils in the siX-year period and
bring the total enrolment to about
100000.
The schools will need to add be-
tween 5000 and 5000 classrooms
in the next six years to take care
of this influx. That means between
800 and 900 new classrooms added
each year.
The schools will need to add be-
tween $50 and 1000 new teachers
each year to take care of the in
creased enrolment.
Because about 1000 teachers
quit teaching each year for one
reason or another, this means the
state will have to recruit $500 to
5000 new teachers every year.
The states teachers colleges
graduate a little more than 300
new teachers each year.
There are about $4,000 teachers
in the public school system now
and about q 900 will be needed by
1860. Considering the yearly turn
over, this means hiring almost 49,
600 teachers in the next six years.
The enrolment increase, on
which all the other figures are
based, has been calculated from
population studies and birth rec
ords.

INDECENT natiantS.

.MANTEO SCHOOL
LOSES VALUABLE
FACULTY MEMBER
Miss BonnybeI Evans Resigns
Due to Ill Health; Has
Taught Many
Years

One of Dare County's best known
and best loved teachers last week
resigned her teaching position in
the Manteo school, due to ill health,
and the news that she would teach
no more this year has brought sor-
row to the many pupils who love
her, and to the mothers and faith
ers who appreciate the fine quality
of her work with their children.
She is Miss Bonnybel Evans of
Manteo, who has for more than AZ
years taught in the North Carolina
schools, most of that time in Dare
County. Teaching for many years
in the intermediate grades in the
Manteo school, a number of years
ago Miss Bonnybel' was persuad-
ed to take over the first grade, and
since that time every child who has
entered the Manteo school as a be-
ginner has almost worshipped
Miss Bonny".
1t is hard to tell who is most re-
gretful that Miss Bonnybel's"
health has required her temporary
resignation, the children, the par
ents, the school faculty, or the
teacher herself. She recently stated
that she had been in the school
room for so many years that she
felt out of place elsewhere. Begin
ming her teaching career in 1910,
Miss Evans has missed very few
days of school land until she be-
came i'll last year and had to be
away for several months, never
for long period of time. She has
always been an untiring teacher,
faithful to the trust reposed in her
to give of her best to the students
who came under her supervision.
She has spent many hours over
and above the line of duty prepar-
ing interesting methods of pre-
senting lessons to cher children.
She has also given unstintedly of
her time and effort to all worthy
causes sponsored by or for the
school; and all worthwhile commu-
nifty projects. Indeed, the teacher
who tries to fill her place until
such time as she can return to her

ATLANTIC TOWNSHIP
TAXPAYERS PROMPT
TO LIST ASSETS

Kill Devil Hills.-The first day
of tax listing at Twiford's store
mere brought pretty fair" re-
Spouse, Mrs. Beulah Perry, tax
lister for Atlantic township, re-
ported.
After spending Wednesday and
Thursday at that location, Mrs.
Perry said, she is at Kitty Hawk

there again Monday and Tuesday.
As soon as possible after that she
will turn the books in, and those

cause so many owners of beach
property live elsewhere she does
not list nearly all of it. Blanks
are sent to owners whose addresses
are known so that they can list
their taxes and return the blanks
to Manteo.
