Three From Each County
Elected Directors in New
Bern Meeting Tues
day
By WADE LUCAS

NEW BERN, Jan. 20-The Gen
eral Assembly was asked here to-
day to appropriate $4,000 for an
economic and engineering survey
of Eastern North Cardinals inland
ports and waterway facilities and
for a master plan" for their full
Ter development and greater utili-
cation.
The request was made at the
meeting of the recently-formed
North Carolina Coastal Marine
Council and will be laid before the
State Board of Conservation and
Development for action and trans
mission to the Legislators at the
boards mid-winter meeting in Ra-
leigh next Monday. The board and
the department were praised for
their efforts to help develop the
coastal resources.
In addition to asking for the
survey, the council-which was
formed last September at Belhaven
by people representing q separ-
ate Eastern North Carolina COM
munities-also requested that the
engineering firm submit a mas
ter plan" for development of in
dustrial commercial fishing and
recreational facilities. The council
recommended in its unanimously
adopted resolution that the firm
of Parsons, Brinckerhof, Hall and
Mcdonald of New York City be
employed to make the survey.
A dozen speakers gave hearty
endorsement" to the proposal for
a survey and the submission of a
master plan for development of
the coasts marine resources. Also
endorsing the survey proposal and
promising their full support to the
plan to develop the coastal re-
sources Ito their fullest extent"
were George R. Ross of Raleigh,
director of the State Department
of Conservation and Development,
and aubrey L. Cavenaugh of War
saw, chairman of the water re-
sources committee of c & D.
Ross pointed out that history
was reversing itself here today in
that around one hundred years ago
Eastern North Carolina pretty
we'll controlled the political and
economic life of the State" by
reason of it's water commerce and
other factors.
"You helped build the railroads
that helped develop our great
Piedmont and other section," Ross
said "and now in the words of
former Rep. Marion PARROT, Lee
noir County, you are asking for
some of the help that you gave
the other sections a century or
more ago."
Ross suggested that the council
look into the plan of asking the
General Assembly for the esti-
mated $225,0 that is collected an
nually by the State in gasoline
taxes on marine craft. Under pres
ent laws this tax is related if re-
quested but Ross pointed out that
only about $4,000 of the sum is
related annually. "You can well
afford to make this sacrifice of
$4,000 to get working capital for
development of your marine facil-
ities," he added. William F. Pat
terson, secretary of the Washing
ton, N. c., Chamber of Commerce,
took what was considered a hui
morous jab at the General Assem-

ceived ballots and more than half
of them responded.
Bankers in smaller towns and
cities commented more freely and
frequently were more critical,
even though they favored present
policies.
A frequently expressed opinion
was that the Administration is
not doing a good job of selling
ITSELF" that "its timing is poor, +"
and better explanations of it's
monetary policies are needed"
On present debt management
and monetary policies, bankers
noted that dollar worth some
thing is best. even if it hurts a
little to get it," There was wide
approval of the hard dollar" in
the sense that it is a dollar that
can be depended on. However.
many of the hackers questioned
