A referendum on the issue was
held August 25, 1858 in the midst
of considerable confusion as to the
issue. There were widespread ru-
mors in the Town of Kill Devil
Hills that if the issue was voted
down, the new town could build
its own water system and sell wa
ter in Mays Head and Kitty Hawk
at a profit. The final vote was:

Following the defeat in the orig
inal referendum, the commission
ers voted to continue their efforts
to secure an adequate water sys-
tenn. Between the election in 1858
and 1858 the survey has been
twice brought up to date; health
inspectors have continued to test
water supplies of business estab-
lishments and to require new wells
or individual chlorinating systems
when pollution was found. They
warned also that there was danger
of permanent pollution of the
whole water supply. But the issue
has not been put to another vote
until now because of widespread
confusion on the subject, and be-
cause the floating of bonds in the
Kitty Hawk and Mays Head areas
for the construction of schools has
placed an extra burden on the tax
payers.
The Forthcoming referendum has
been called by the Sanitary Dis
trict commissioners with the full
realization that the people who
will pay some $3.50 of the cost
will have no vote, and that the in
stallation of such a system will
impose, at the outset, an additional
tax burden on nonresident prop
erty owners already concerned
about Dare County taxes. An in
quiry to property owners in 1857
showed that about $3.50 of proper
ty owners replying, including nom
residents expressed approval of a
water system by indicating that
they would tie in with the system
at the time of construction. The
present commissioners feel, as
have their predecessors, that the
matter of providing safe water
supply is of such paramount i'm
portance, that there is no other
alternative.
Commissioners of the Sanitary
District are elected by popular
vote by the qualified voters OF the
district-the very same voters, in
cidentally, who will determine
whether or not the referendum
shall pass.
The commissioners, and dates of
service, are as follows:
John R. Duvall, Chairman, Nov.
IL, 1949-April II, 1852; J. E. Har-
ris, Secretary, Nov. II, 1949-Dec.
9, 1854; Mrs. C. P. Midget, Nov.

Smith, Secretary, Dec. 8, 1856;
Oscar Sanderlin, Dec. 8, 1856
June 81, 1858; o. L. Baum, July 8,

The area involved in the SAM
tary District is a narrow strip
approximately Is miles long, ex-
tending from the south end of
Southern Shores on the north to
the extension of U. S. Highway
GA to the ocean from Roanoke
Sound Bridge causeway on the
south, bounded on the east by the
Atlantic Ocean and on the west by
an arbitrary line 700 feet west of
State Highway 1853. In addition,
the old Mays Head soundside COM
munity was included in the origi-
nal boundaries of the district, and
Avalon Beach was added by pop
ular demand November l, 1866.
Other outlying communities, in
GLIDING the village of Kitty Hawk,
where water supply is an especial
ly acute problem, can come in to
the District in the future by petit
ton or can arrange for purchase
of water. The proposed system is
designed to make this expansion
possible.

It has already been determined
by engineers that a suitable
source of water is gravel-packed
wells to be located in the vicinity
of the Fresh Water Pond. In or
der to be assured of the very best
and most economical supply, how
ever, further test wells are now
being dug by the U. S. Geological
Survey the entire length of the
Sanitary District in order to get a
complete picture of both quantity
and quality of the water supply
available through deep wells. The
source of supply will be determin-
ed on the basis of results of this
survey, which will be completed by
the middle of September. Half OF
the expense of the survey is being
paid by the Geological Survey and
half by the Sanitary District. The
North Carolina State Board OF
Health will do certain of the tests.
the North Carolina Department
of Conservation & Development is
cooperating in this also.
From the source or sources, wa
ter mains will extend throughout
the district, with three 100000 gal
lon elevated tanks placed at inter-
walls for storage. There will be a
fire station at each of these loca-
tions. Every building in the dis
trict will be within three miles OF
a fire station and within 500 feet
of a fire hydrant. This will place
the district in class s as approved
by the N. C. Fire Underwriters
Association and fire insurance
rates will be cut.
Costs of the proposed system
are:

pumping station, elevated
tanks, purchase of land,
water mains, hydrants,

would be a combination Water
Superintendent-Fire Chief and the
other an assistant and clerk.
This annual cost would be paid
partly through water service to
the customers and, for a time,
partly through tax levy in the
district. Current estimates by the
engineers call for a tax levy fol

notch the trustees are from the
Wilmington area.
The nominating committee for
the annual meeting consisted of
Mr.. Henke, chairman; Charles e.
Bichy, and William N. Cam, Sr.
The committees annual report,
submitted by its secretary, declared
that it has a total of 260 members
but to become a potent force in
accomplishing the Objectives of the
organization your board of trustees
feels that a minimum number of
$4,000 members is required. Each
individual present member is urged
to actively participate in recruit
ing additional members"
The report recalls that the COM
mittee had its beginning last June
when the directors of the Della
ware State Chamber of Commerce
authorized the appointment of a
committee of similar name. The ac-
ton was taken, Mr.. DEM said,
because of the general concern
about the direction in which gov
ernment at all levels in Delaware
was drifting; the unsound financial
position of the state: and the aD-
parent disregard on the part of
those in power to correct the sit
uation."
The chamber committee was sup
planted by the present corporation
in August.
The report notes also the cor
poration sponsored public meet
ing in The Playhouse on Sept. Is,
when Raymond Moley gave d talk
on the Importance of wider interest
by business and professional peo-
pie in the political scene.
A speakers bureau mas been or
ganized by the committee, and II
detectives for good government
compiled by the committee have
been widely distributed, the report
said. The group supplied the pro-
gram for the annual meeting last
week of a Chamber of Commerce
group, where the Syracuse Plan
was explained.

tai ingestion of such colored fluids
from Christmas tree decorators.
The fluid can be extremely toxis
to young children, it was pointed
out by DIR. Mark Kenyon, director
of the State Board of Health's pro-
gram for prevention of Gripping.
Another group of potentially
toxis substances used frequently
in the home at Christmas time are
fireplace colOrs. These substances
are metallic salts which when
thrown into a fire bring forth vari-
ously colored flames resulting from
the burning of different metallic
compounds.
Such powdered materials and the
colored fluids in tree decorations
are potential hazards when they
can be reached by small children,
DIR. Kenyon said, and should be
used only with extreme care. He
recommended that they not be used
in homes having small children or
pets, where curiosity may expose
them to a danger which outweighs
the benefits of the bubbling fluids
or colored flame.
The Delaware Safety Council and
the State Board of Health also Of
fered FIVE other suggestions for
Christmas safety at home. These
are:
1. Keep your decorations in a
safe place out of the way until you
need them
2. The tree is the last thing ycu
should bring into the house. Dry
Christmas trees are highly fam
mable. Be sure yours is freshly
cut Make sure you'll have pan or
container of water in which to
stand the tree. Learn TO hang the
lights carefully and secure the tree
firmly.
8. Prepare for the safe disposal
of discarded gift wrappings. On
Christmas morning gift packages
will be. torn open in haste and the
wrappings discarded haphazardly.
Provide metal container for their
safe disposal.
4. All gifts aren't Nsafe-unless
used properly If you receive a gun
for a gift, learn the rules of hand
ling firearms safely. Look for the
(UL) label on all electrical gifts.
5. Eat wisely and get adequate
rest. A dull-witted, ill-feeling per-
son is ripe for accidents.

Upon Union Security Agreements.
''The truth is that the proposed
initiative law would abolish rights
in Montana which are presently guar
anteed by federal law. The Taft
Hartley Act recognizes the union shop
in which membership is a condition
of employment. However, Taft-Hart-
ley allows states to impose more Sc
we're restrictions than the federal
law.
"The truth is that the proposed
law would restrict both the employ
err and the union representing a
majority of the employees. 1t would
forbid them from freely bargain
ing. 1t would say to them, You
may not agree on this matter even
if you both want to-"
Continuing, the labor attorney
pointed out:
"Today, everyone who can find a
job in Montana has a right to work.
Nothing in the law can prevent that.
Unions assist their members to locate
jobs, they should not be compelled
to assist those who do not contribute
to the cost of operating the union.
RTW seeks only to destroy the wage
earners' right to organize into unions
for the purpose of obtaining such
assistance and to add his strength
to the united strength of his fellow
wage earners in establishing wage

the fraud it actually is. Said Huppe
"This so-called RTW law is, in
my opinion, deliberately misleading
in it's appearance. While it appears
to establish rights, and by some of its
terms appears to be protecting rights
of the individual wage Garner, it in
fact does neither.
"The slogans, and materials cir
culated in its behalf imply the
right to job. All of the approach
of the proponents is intended to
present the appearance of some
positive law. The fact is that the
law will afford no additional rights
