town election will have passed by,
if it is not complete before the
end of May. The situation can give
rise to lot of political implica-
tions.

tribute toward the subsidy until
July 1, 1859. He said this will al
low time for states to make con-
stitutional changes or enact leg
islation necessary to meet the sub
sidy requirement.
Meistrell pointed out that North
Carolina, with it's lengthy coast
line, lakes, streams and hills "has
almost all of the problems we're
to meet throughout the nation"
He said joint attack on the prob
lens by the federal government
and the Tar Heel State might re-
solve some of the issues we could
apply nationwide"
He was frankly interested in OBJ
tanning the views of the North
Carolina Congressman on various
aspects of the program, and said
as a result of exchange of views
he expects to have "more concrete
proposals ready for presentation at
a Southeastern regional confer
ence in Raleigh, March Is.
Rep. L. H. Fountain, who, as a
member of the House Banking and
Currency Committee, played a
leading role in adoption of the
flood disaster insurance program,
told Meistrell that his presentation
at the Washington meeting "indi-
Gates you and those working with

enough for service that a great
reduction will be possible in the
tax rate, giving considerable relief
to the large property owners of
the town. In any town-operated
utilities, there is little likelihood
of relief for the little fellow, as
he must continue to pay high for
current, while the large property
owner will benefit through a re-
duction in taxes,
Other Side States Position
1t appears that sentiment in the
town is against embarking in the
power business, judging by the
number of citizens who have criti-
cized the two Board members who
voted against granting the fran
chise to VEPCO on the first read
ing. Quite unfairly, some people
have Jumped on" Sam Midget,
who a quiet, friendly man, not
given to contentionness. In all fair
ness, these men have a right to
their opinion, and need time to
make up their mind, even though
they had a month to begin think
ing it over and to gather infor-
nation.
Elsewhere in this newspaper to-
day, they are publishing their view
of the situation. S. E. Midget and
M. L. Daniels Jr. have clearly
stated their views. It should be
read by all interested persons.
Even the Roanoke Utilities owners
say they see nothing wrong about
the two Board members not being
willing to make up their minds at
this time. eve should respect the
other fellows point of view, as
much as we expect him to respect
ours" says w. B. Fearing, presi-
dent. 81 hope we will continue
friends all through this thing and
afterward, regardless of the out
come"
Island Citizens On A Limb
Outside of the town of Manteo
are about three fourths of the cleo
trio light customers of Roanoke
Island. The subject is of grave
concern to this voiceless majority.
Should the town go into the cleo
trio light business, this majority
of consumers would be dependent
upon the whims of who might wish
to serve them. If they have to
appeal to the town of Manteo for
current, they may not be able to
hope for any improvement in serv-
ice or reduction in rates. If any
other concern attempts to serve
them, it's rates too may be I'M
reasonable, in view of the large
investment that may be required
to construct system.
The two town Board members
are trying to get competent adj
vice as to what is best to do in
this matter. An engineer has been
employed who will come over for
$500 and tell them whether a sur
vey is worth while, and also what
a survey will cost. Such survey
may or may not be ready for sew
