STAGGERED TERMS

The move underway to change the
structure Of the local Town Board
of Commissioners is sensible.
Under the present structure, it Is
possible that an election could find
an entire body of freshmen" run
nIng the local administration. While
this has not occurred i'll recent years,
the possibility alone makes the stag
gered term system almost mandatory.
Any member OF the Board can
vouch for the fact that it takes sew
eral months for new commissioner
to grasp the details of local govern
ment.
With staggered term setup,
whereby two experienced men are on
the Board at all times, town progress
is assured.
Although the new structure will
not have anything to do with the
terms of the present commissioners,
II approved, the coming election will
find voters sending two commissioners
into four year term while the other
two will serve 4 two year term.
Too, it gives the Mayor justified
authority. tie becomes voting men,
Der of the Board i'll case of tie. In
the past, the Mayor has served WITH
out authority TO cast vote although
he was as well informed on issues
as any other member of the Board
The move to change the structure
has not been made without the voice
of the people. commissioners have
talked with hundreds of citizens and
asked their views on the proposal.
Only few have opposed.
We hope the staggered term pos
slbility will become a reality. 1t is
the ounce of prevention that will keep
our town moving forward.

A PROBLEM IS SOLVED

When Carolina Power and Light
Company assigned Don Holmes as its
representative in Tabor City they
again displayed the fine cooperative
spirit that exists between them and
the communities they serve.
In watching the activities of Caro-
lima Power and Light Company in
various communities, one cannot es-
cape the important part they play
in community growth and prosperity.
They are quick to offer assistance
in all matters and customers are in
sured of sympathetic ear at all
times.
BY stationing Mr.. Holmes in our
community, Carolina Power and Light
Company has added safety measure.
1t is one we hope will not be needed
but should an emergency arise call
ing for an electrical Serviceman as
slstance will be only minutes instead
of miles away.
It's encouraging to know we have
conscientious organization such as
CP&L serving our area.

Corn BOrer Control
Is Planned In Kent

In connection with a statewide
corn borer control program being
organized by DR.. l.. A. Stearns and
Donald MacCreary, entomologists
at the University of Delaware,
George Vapaa, county agricultural
agent, has announced that plans
for borer control in Kent County
are about complete.
We hope to add up to $174.00 to
each average farm income in the
county, the agent said. This was
the bite" taken by borers from
each average farm income from
corn last year, as reported by DR..
Stearns. Total state damage by
borers in 1856 was an estimated
$849,194
County control efforts will in
volve getting every farmer to plow
under all old corn stalks by May 1,
The university entomologists said
earlier that this is the least expen-
sive way of controlling the corn
pest.
So far, the agent has been TAX
ing pictures and talking to farm
ers who are now plowing under
corn stalks and whose stories will
be used later in news releases
The plan, too, is to post fields OF
cooperating farmers.
