quite an effect on English his
tory,-not the nothingness that
in vain implies and as for the
Romans and the Normans, their
blood is well and truly inter

former legacy of the Spanish

THE HIGHER
THE FEWER
There's Always Plenty of Room
At The Top
By
NANCY J. MIDGETT

On reading an article by Peter
Lyme in the Christian Science
Monitor this morning I noted
that Queen Elizabeth II ended
her six month tour of the Bri-
fish Commonwealth when she
stepped ashore from the roval
barge at Westminster Pier, on
the river Thames near the houses
of Parliament. The article, touch
ing on "the splendor and TO-
nance of the past" and "the sea
traffic berthing at Thames side"
recalled to memory a song we
learned at school. 1t was sung by
our entire class (grade to you)
and was one of two songs we
battled with in competition with
other classes of our abiIty-?. l
will write it as my memory has it.
From the Cotswolds, from the
Chilterns,
From your fountains and your
springs,
Flow down Oh, London river,
To the seagulls silver wings.
Isis or Ock or Tame,
Forget your olden name
And the lilies and the willows
And the weirs through which
you came.
Your stately towers and turrets
Are the children of a day;
You see them lift and vanish
In your immemorial way.
The Saxon and the Dane,
They dared your deeps in vain.
The Romans and the Normans,
They are past but you remain.
Your water gate stands open
Der your turbid tides unrest,
To welcome home your children
From the East and from the
West.
Ger every ocean hurled,
Till their tattered sails be
furled
In the avenue of Empire,
In the highway of the world.
Then swing US to the surges
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1954-05-21
NET FISHERMEN
REMINDED TO PAY.
COMMERCIAL TAX

Raleigh May 81 = Attorney
General Harry Mcmillan held
today that commercial fishing
taxes must be paid by owners
and operators of all boats using
traWl nets for the taking of
shrimp in State-controled waters.
The opinion was given at the
request of Director Ben E. Doug
las of the State Department of
Conservation and Development,
which has supervision over COM
mercial fishing in waters under
State control.
Douglas asked MCMILLAN for
his Interpretation of State laws
governing the taxing of owners
and operators of boats and diff
ferent appliances used in COM
mercial fishing waters.
I'VE hope" Douglas said, chat
Mr.. McMullan's opinion will help
define what constitutes a COM
mercial fisherman under our
commercial fishing laws"
The ruling, Douglas said was
requested in view of inquiries
from persons who say they de-
sire to use boats and seines for
pleasure fishing and taking of
clans, oysters and shrimp"
The attorney general said Cen
eral Statutes 113-174.4 levies an
annual license upon different ap-
planes used in the States COM
mercial fishing waters and in
cludes among other taxes a tax
of 81 per hundred yards of frac-
ton thereof on seines.
, G. S. 113-1747, Mcmillan add
ed, levies an annual tax on GER
tain boats, including trawl and
motor boats, of fifty (5O) cents
per foot in overall length if the
boat does not exceed &c feet in
length or seventy-five (75) cents
per foot of overall length on
boats exceeding 26 feet in over
all length.
Mcmillan said G. S. 113-174.8
clearly provides that no tax shall

Henry A. Colgate, President of
the Seeing Eye, states in what
he said was continuing effort
to stamp out a persistent rumor
which crops up periodically and
is now spreading with alarming
rapidity throughout the coun-
try"
"Such collections can only re-
suit in disappointment to blind
people and their friends who
save the articles" Mr.. Colgate
said, 'tfor they are not redeem
able by the Seeing Eye nor are
they redeemable by cigarette
manufacturers for dog guide.

fide residents or citizens of North
Carolina who take fish, oysters,
CLANS scallops, or crabs other
than with dredges for his own
personal or family's use and con-
sumption. ''But if any person."

section of the law reads, shall
sell or offer for sale any such
products without having first
procured a license, he shall be

guilty of misdemeanor and
shall be fined not less than five
dollars (5) or imprisoned not ex-
ceeding thirty 500 days."
MCMILLAN pointed out that G.
S. 113-174-8 does not include the
taking of shrimp and that per-
sons apprehended taking them
without having procured State
license to do so face prosecution
under the statute upon which he
ruled at Douglas request.
