among London residents as 10 the
appearance of their home town.
During the depression and the
period of material shortage which
was created by the war, it was
quite understandable that home
improvements could not be made.
Housing shortages were response
BILE for many families being fore
ed to live in quarters that would
otherwise be considered as most
undesirable. But now that the
situation has improved and the
general economic standard is high
er, people are apparently content
ed to live as though these former
conditions still prevailed
In certain sections of the city
one can drive for several blocks
through nothing but rows of shan
ties. Many of these properties are
owned by people who are beyond
doubt within the financial means
of Improvement Apparently these
owners (some of which are quite
successful business people) are
quite contented to sit back and col
lect rent while still enjoying very
low tax rates on these none-too-
lovely homes. 1t seems as though
the conscience of many of these
owners would bother them, but
seemingly they are far beneath
reproach or conscience. This is a
very discouraging factor to the
owners of decent looking property
nearby, as the slum-like property
seriously de-valuates their own.
Other cities have instigated
overall improvement campaigns,
many of which the local newspap-
ers were either directly or indir-
ectly responsible for. Civic pride
and personal pride of the resi-
dents in many cases stimulated
cleaning up and improvement or
deplorable areas. Many lovely
homes and new housing additions
are digustingly contrasted by Lon
don's entirely uncalled for slum
districts. Why not get a movement
under way toward beautifying
these places? ? Why not make Lon
don a city to be proud of in its
entirety Perhaps if you were to
publish a few pictures of these
above mentioned areas for any who
might remark that they are un-
aware of such things locally, it
would help
A little ambition and interest as
we'll as perhaps bit of pressure"
could indeed make London pret-
ty town in contrast to what it is
now considered.
i shall watch this column to see
if there are any replies by anyone
who can honestly take an opposite
stand. also hope to see an inter-
est taken into this matter by those
holding similar opinion.

STRAWBERRIES

1t now is apparent that the straw
berry market in Tabor City this year
has been a success. And that is some
thing to crow about in this period of
farmer uncertainty in this area.
Starting out the season with only
ambition to maintain place for
farmers to sell their Strawberries,
the promoters of the project feel that
even more than that has been attain
ed. First, as the introduction of the
pint size crate came in, farmers are
now aware that at least little
greater revenue can come from ber-
ries than they have realized in most
prior seasons.
Second, where no buyers were
available or even interested in the
market at season opening, now three
or four truckers have been actively
buying berries for several weeks. And
on the end-of-the-week selling days,
they buy about all the berries that
come i'll. This has worked to great
advantage Of the farmer. It's the ber-
ries on the end of the week that are
usually hardest to dispose of in the
Northern cities. They have to be held
over a day or so and often are over
ripe when put on the wholesale
market.
Third, local buinesSmen felt the
need to keep the farmers selling their
crops in Tabor City. They rightly be-
lieve that when another market is
lost, it further reduces the retail po-
tential OF the community. Thus, the
operation of the market this year has
aided in the maintenance of better
economy.
Strangely enough, berries being
auctloned here last week brought a
higher price than berries sold in New
York. The fact that buyers were
available to distribute the berries in
Carolina grocery stores kept the price
good most of the week. Thursday
and Friday the price was roughly
$500 higher on the crate in Tabor
'llN t"&G they ""Ic in New York.

COR PETE'S SAKE

We raised our head a few times
several months ago when Pete Strick-
land was able to evade capture for
week after week after having been
involved in cutting spree and later
allegedly shooting his brother.
Pete was finally apprehended and
last week faced the Judge on the
cutting charge. On that charge alone
he got three to five years and still
has to face the possible Indictment
OH the shooting charge
For Pete's sake, we hope he learned
Il lesson and that once his debt to
society has been paid, ne Will be
better citizen than he has been. There
are many others equally as crime
conscious as Pete but his case war
ranted more attention perhaps be-
cause of his apparent genius in evad-
ing arrest.
And we confess we are happy that
law enforcement officers succeeded
in bringing him to justice after il
appeared for awhile that he might go
forever uncaught.

Editorials . .

This fact is life-saver to the farmer
seeking to make money on his berry
crop. The New York market was
flooded with the Louisiana and Cali
fornia crops but housewives in the
South were still looking to this area
for berries on the Sunday menu.
b. Alton Carroll rates the biggest
hand shake of anyone for keeping the
market operating this season. 1t is
extremely doubtful that merchants
could have continued the market
many days without his full support.
And when he came to the rescue and
took over the market on his own after
three days, he assured Tabor City
of 1857 market. He has done an
excellent job and has the best wishes
of everyone. It's certainly our hope
that the trouble he has gone to toward
maintaining the market will prove
profitable to him as it has to the
farmers and merchants in Tabor City.

TALK
LONG WILL THEY REMEMBER
BY AL HARRISON

Students who took part in the school strike re-
Gently will long remember it. Chances they will
look back on it as of the foolish things they did
a youths.
My looking back similar situation doesn't
recall any pleasant memories OF course, the ono
staged at my high school in Spencer was of short
duration We were the given the utmatum to
either return to classes be expelled from school
Whether not they inserted the strike activities
our school records is beyond knowledge but that
was one of the promises the school officials made.
In remniscing, can't help but face the fact that
the man who was then serving principal in Spencer
committed suicide years ago while serving al
principal of school here in Eastern North Carolina
The difference III the situation of my youth and
that of last week the stand took. Here. the
students went on strike to help the principal The
Spencer students went strike Directing to the prn-
cpalS policies.
Any way you look at it. a strike defes someone
IN some way another. And it isn't a healthy student
activity.
