and School purposes. This Board
deems it advisable to use all the
above mentioned funds including
the above amount in General fund
for the purpose of enlarging the
Hyde County Courthouse.
at is upon motion duly made,
seconded and unanimously adopted,
resolved that the Representative of
Hyde County be and he is hereby
requested to introduce bill in the
General Assembly of North Caro-
lima, if the same be constitutional
to permit Hyde County to use the
above mentioned Timber Funds,
for the purpose of enlarging the
Hyde County Courthouse; and to
authorize the levy of tax, but
not to exceed ten cents on SlOO
per year for a period not to ex-
ceed four years in order to raise
sufficient funds to complete said
construction"
Representative Dick O'Neal was
also asked to secure passage of
two other bills in the General AS
sembly. One would provide the
county with a clear title to lands
which had been foreclosed upon
for non-payment of taxes. This
resolution declared that the sale
and improvement of a number OF
tracts of land foreclosed in the last
thirty years has been greatly hin
dered, and further, that the board
deems advisable a law to prevent
legal attack on title to any land
that has been held under a tax
foreclosure deed of record for as
much as 10 years and provided the
owner prior to foreclosure had
failed to list property for any con-
tinual 10-year period since deed
was filed.
The other resolution asked for
legislation to give the commission
ers authority to pay for the cost
of providing a lot for public dock
for the Far Creek harbor at Engel-
hard and for furnishing a disposal
area, in order that the U. S. Corps
of Engineers would redredge Far
Creek to minimum depth of II
feet. The legislation would further
permit the levying of a special tax
for the purpose of paying the cost.

OPEN HOUSE HONORS
MRS. HARDWOOD MONDAY
Librarian Since 1895 is Special Guesi
When Manteo Woman's
Club Enfertains

Mrs. Van Ness Harwood, who %
years ago organized the Dare
County Library for its sponsoring
organization, the Manteo Woman's
Club, was guest of honor Monday
evening at an Open House held in
the rooms of the library in Manteo.
Mrs. Harwood has been with the
library since it's beginning and has
seen it grow from a collection of
few hundred books to the present
total of 1892 volumes. While
Mrs. Hal Ward is at present the
head librarian, Mrs. Harwood con-
tinues to assist. Mrs. Michael J.
Hamm is also member of the
staff, and operates the bookmobile
which delivers books to every place
in the county. Mrs. Rennie Will
hanson has served as treasurer
since the library was first organi-
zed in 1885, and has through the
years raised funds with which to
operate the institution even when
it seemed a hopeless task.
For the reception the library
was decorated with arrangements
of daffodils, camellias and white
narcissi. The refreshment table
was covered with white linen
cloth and held a silver punch bowl
banked with red camellias and
flanked by white candles in silver
holders. Mrs. NJ. K. Fearing pre-
sided at the punch bowl and Mrs.
w. ]. Andrews assisted in serving
an assortment of homemade cook
les, mints and salted nuts.
Guests were greeted at the door
by Mrs. James c. Bardin, Mrs. M.
X. Fearing, Jr., and the honoree,
who wore a navy blue outfit with
shoulder corsage of yellow rose
buds. Approximately 100 guests
called during the evening. Mrs.
Harwood spoke few words of ap-
probation in behalf of the library
and it's friends, and the Manteo
Rotary quartet sang a special song
to her.

MANTEO GIRLS TEAM
WINS TOURNAMENT
AS SEASON CLOSES

The Manteo High School girls
basketball team concluded a very
successful season last Saturday
night by winning the Albemarle
Rural Conference tournament
championship.
The Manteo girls had finished
in second place in regular con-
ference play, losing once to Griggs
and once to Central. Manteo drew
bye in the first round Wednes-
day night and did not play until
Friday. On Friday they faced the
third place Griggs girls and beat
them easily for the second time
this season. The Central girls beat
the Weeksville girls in sudden
death overtime to go into the fl
mails with Manteo.
The two teams met Saturday
night at 1880 in the Elizabeth City
High School gym. The game was
tight most of the way, with the
score tied at half time. Central
had a 7-point lead one time but
Manteo soon cut it down. With
three minutes remaining in the
game, Manteo took 1-point lead
and froze the ball for the remain
der of the game. During the freeze,
Manteo received foul and added
another point to give them a two
point lead and then Mabel Jean
Basnight broke away for a lay-up
for Manteo to give them a four
point lead and the game. Final
score was Manteo As, Central Al.
Mabel Jean and Helen Baum were
high point leaders for Manteo.
The Manteo boys lost in the first
game of the tournament Wednes-
day night to Weeksville. The Man
teo boys were awarded the sports
manship trophy for the tournament.
Jean Sears and Jean Toms were
on the all-tournament teams from
Manteo for the girls and Coy Til
lett Jr. for the boys.
Coach Ayers is rightfully proud
of his teams showing this year
and believes that they played some
of the best ball games he has seen
any of his teams play. His girls
finished the season with a 17-2
record. The Manteo boys finished
with a fair season with a 80 rec
ord.
Coach Ayers has seen his girls
improve greatly from the first of
the season and did not lose
single girl through failure all year.
On the other hand, Coach Fry has
been unable to get his team func-
tioning because many boys failed
or were suspended for time.
Wednesday night of this week
the Manteo boys travelled to Will
liamston to play in the District
NCAA tournament. They drew
WILLIAMSON, one of the top-seeded
teams and lost to them 61-43.
Bobby Duvall and Coy Tillett were
high point men for Manteo. Perry
was high point man for William
ston with "a points.
This game concludes the basket
ball season in Manteo as far as
the high school teams are concern
ed. The Manteo Little League
teams will conclude their season
next week.

Administration Seeks
Hike In REA Interest

1t will not add much immediate
hardship to the REA co-ops' burdens.
But government officials admit there
has been nothing illegal with the
previous procedure. Why, then, make
this change at all?
LONG SOUGHT GOAL
1t should not be overlooked for a
minute that powerful forces inside
the Administration have had a hard
money fist cooked for long time at
the REA co-ops. Boosting REA inter-
est rates is an aim with something
like fantastic intensity for many of
these people, originating way back
when utility executives, big bankers,
and such were trying with all their
might and main to kill off the "radi-
caP' REA experiment. The savage
punishment for REA co-ops that was
written into the Hoover Commission
recommendations- the Admins
tration admitted REA would be
stopped dead in its tracks-is one
illustration of the intensity of this
feeling.
The fist of higher interest rates has
been expected right in the nose by
REA coop leaders for some time now.
Higher interest rates already are be-
ing imposed in other government lend
ing programs. Early this year all kinds
of noises were being made in the
Treasury and White House-even by
Eisenhower himself-pointing toward
action to inflict hard money on REA
co-ops, too.
But suddenly there was lull. Last
winter the British government told
Washington it wanted to waive its in
terest and principal payments. This
imposed the delicate duty of rene
gotiating easier terms for the British.
While the British loan matter was be-
fore Congress, there was blackout
on Administration hard-money talk
aimed at REA co-ops.
The people's voice., 1957-06-07
PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT
TO THE BRITISH

The British loan is extremely i'm
portant to high Administration Off
cials and the financial interests with
which they are connected and politi-
cally allied. This loan is for 81 y bill
lion, and bears interest at 29o, just
like REA loans. Not only were prin-
cipal payments deferred for the first
5 years-but no interest at all was
charged for this 5-year period. More
over, the British are entitled to waive
up to 7 of the annual principal and
interest installments when they fall
due. which has the effect of stretch
ing out the term of the loan up to
Z years. 1t therefore will run through
the year 1000 or up to 2007.
This is considerably more generous
than even the New Deal was toward
the REA co-ops back in the days when
the government could make a tidy
profit by lending money at 29o in
terest, before the cost of money to
the government had been deliberately
inflated by government authorities.
Any attempt to put the squeeze on
REA co-ops for higher interest pay
ments would have been extremely en-
barrassing at the time the British
loan was being buttoned up.
But Congressional approval of the
British loan became final on April 20.
Sure enough, the hard money camel
has begun again to sniff its way into
the REA tent. 1t will probably be
only matter of time before REA
leaders will have the uncomfortable
experience of having the whole camel
to contend with.

Farming E. . like any other industry -.
needs the effciencies and economies of
specialized departments.
The farm business needs a sales de-
partment and purchasing department
:. someone to counsel on insurance
and credit and many more depart
ments to work out important problems.
If it weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special
lied services. Purchasing cooperatives
supply materials and products of high
est quality at lowest possible cost. Mar
keting cooperatives help improve the
quality of produce and sell it at the
most favorable prices. Mutual insur-
ance companies provide protection at
lowest cost. Credit associations lend
money for farm operations.
These cooperatives make farming
more business-ike and more profitable.
