Price Support
Deadline Is
January 81

Chairman Josephson of the
County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation committee to-
day reminded farmers that the
time is growing short during
which they may secure price sup
port on commodities grown in
1854.
January 81 is the final date for
securing loans and purchase a.
greements, but he advised farm
ers not to wait until the last day
to request support. The mechan-
les of making support available,
particularly in the case Of farm
stored commodities offered for
loan, require some time. There
fore, it is suggested that producers
who intend to get loans on farm
stored grain make their applica-
tons not later than January IA.
This will allow the committee and
office personnel time necessary to
inspect the collateral and complete
papers.
Although inspections are not
required on warehouse-stored
commodities or on commodities
offered for purchase agreement.
it does take some time to COM
plete the papers. Producers, there
fore, should request support as
far as possible in advance of the
January 81 deadline.
Support is currently available
on commodities produced in Rich
land county at the following rates:
Wheat, $2.16 per bushel; oats, SO
per bushel; barley, $1.O1 per bush
ell; rye, SIPS per bushel; flax
seed, $2.98 per bushel; and beans.
pinto U. S. No. l, $6.83 per hun
dred weight, Great Northern u. S.
No. l, 1888 per hundred weight.
Chairman Josephson also re-
ported that a large quantity of
grain has already been placed
under loan. AS of December IS
there had been 61,466 bushels of
wheat; 1925 bushels of barley:
and 81 bushels of flax under loan.

aginary trip where people speak
French only and so the girl scouts
start here with learning to speak

Atty. Hebert Guest
Speaker AtLegion
Auxiliary Meeting

Inc american Legion auxiliary
heard a special program dealing
with legislation, at its January
meeting, arranged by legislation
chairman Alma Murphy, and fea-
turing Howard Hebert as guest
speaker.
Mr.. Hebert, in a very informa-
tive talk on Federal Legisla-
tion," traced a bill from the time
a congressman decides that his
ideas should be incorporated into
a law, until it emerges on the
presidents desk for his signature.
He pointed out that money bills
dealing with revenues or taxa
ton a originate only in the
House of Representatives. Upon
introduction of a bill into either
house of Congress, its name or
title is read by the clerk. it is
numbered and printed and then
goes to a committee, dealing with
its special kind of legislation.
where it is studied. It NAV be
amended, rewritten, tabled. or
approved. If approved, it is re-
ported to the floor of the congress
and placed on the calendar to be
considered in its turn. When it
is brought before the members. if
is given its second reading, and
a copy is then given to each mem
Der to be studied. 1t is then voted
on, after possible debate, and if
passed is sent to the other house
of Congress where it goes through
similar committee study and read
ings.
Mr.. Hebert said if changes are
made in the bill, it then goes to
a conference committee of both
houses, who make what changes
are needed to secure approval of
both groups.
The speaker in the house, and
the vice-president in the senate.
are extremely important because
they decide which committee is
to consider each bill. This is often
a life or death matter for the
bill, as an %unfriendly committee
may table or pigeonhole a bill
SC that only a vote of the house
can bring it out for consideration
on the floor.
After passage, Hebert explain
ed, the bill goes to the president
for signature. He a sign it into
law, veto it and return it to the
congress for possible passage over
his veto by a two thirds majority
of each house, may allow it to
become law without his signature,
or hold it until Congress adiourns
(near the end of a SESSION. and so
kill the bill.
In addition to the legislative
and executive departments, the
Judicial Department has a part
in our legislation, by its interpre-
tation of laws, and, Mr.. Hebert
said, it is up to the courts to de-
eide exactly when a law applies
to a specific case, and to inter
pref the law. The courts also de-
eide whether a law is constitution
al, and whether it violates civil
liberties.
Musical entertainment was a
piano solo by Janice EbersoIe.
who with her mother was a guest
of the unit. This was greatly n
joyed by the group.
At the business meeting follow
ing the program, it was decided
to donate $40 to the March of
Dimes. This is double the amount
given last year, because of the
increased need and the large
quota.
Members were asked to work on
getting additional members before
the next meeting when new
members will be initiated. Each
member will bring a white ele-
plant to the February meeting
to be used a a game prize at the
meeting.

CONTRACT FOR
ADDITION TO
COURTHOUSE
Dare Board Of Commissioners
Plans to Let Same on JAM
uary 25fh

Advertisement is being made
this week that the Dare County
Board of Commissioners will open
bids on January 25th for coustruc-
tion of two-story addition to the
Dare County Courthouse, which
structure will house enlarged Of
fices for several departments and
hold a new Jail. It is estimated the
costs will be $4,000, but from
general appearances it looks as if
$4,000 will be required, if the old
dilapidated courthouse is to be
made safe. -
The $4,000 cash which the
county now has to be spent on this
PROTECT came from the sale Of a
tract Of land, which was donated
to Dare County by the late David
Lindquist of Hartsdale, New York,
who was owner of Bodie Island
Club at the time of his death, and
who was chief engineer of Otis
Elevator Company.
Mr.. Lindquist was great
booster of Dare County, and had
quietly aided other things in the
county. He died in 1915.

RISKY LIST SHIPS
LOSING RIGHT TO
SAIL THE SEAS
Coast Guard Finding Old Navy
Vessels Not Seaworthy
for Commerce

Reports indicate that LIST ships
which have had so much trouble,
will be banned from the seas.
These old steel vessels, sold by the
Navy, have been widely put into
merchant service on the ocean and
coastwise routes. The letters LIST
means Landing Ship Tanks. F"
Two of these vessels, about 800
feet long, were driven ashore in
a gale near Rodanthe while being
towed to a shipyard fer recondi-
tioning, shortly after the war.
They are now ideal fishing places
and big catches are currently
caught there by rod and reel fish
ermen.
A few weeks ago, one of these
ships, the Southern Districts sail
ed from Port Sulphur, La. for
Maine with a cargo of sulphur.
This ship has been given up for
lost, and with her was a young
Hyde County Man, her Chief En-
gineer. He was Walter Jennette,
29-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
B. C. Jennette Of Sladesville.
This week debris from the ship
was picked up off the Florida
Keys. At the same time an investi-
cation is going on in New Orleans
concerning the lack of seaworthi.
ness of the ship. Former seamer
who quit her called her a big
bucket of rust. She was described
as leaky and patched up, and COM
pletely unfit for sea service.
Coast Guard headquarters il
Washington has ordered cancella
ton of sailing certificates for al
converted LIST vessels. The mer
have been instructed to board all
such vessels and take away the
certificates.
In 1851 another of these ships
the Southern Isles, went to pieces
off Hatteras. The captain of this
ship had Hyde County name. He
was Capt. George F. Sadler.

FOUNDER FISHING FLEET
BUSY AT OREGON INLET
Twenty Boats Operating From
This Point; Losses Can Wipe
Out Profits

Some 20 or more fishing craft
are based at Oregon Inlet now,
and fishing at sea for founders
has been pretty good. Some of
these boats are from Hatteras and
Carteret County waters, along
with the usual fleet of Dare Coun-
ty boats. The catch is sold right
at the docks of Oregon Inlet. to
several local buyers including
Malcolm Daniels of Wanchese,
Willie Etheridge, Frazier Peele
and Willie Newsom of Hatteras.
Fred Basnight of Manteo had a
good day Friday and seld his catch
for about $275. On Saturday how
ever, he lost his entire net and
attached equipment when it hung
on some old wreckage on the bot
tom. The rig lost was valued at
about $500.
When fishing is good, it is
costly business at times and few
fishermen ever make a fortune.
