merchants prepared for high tides
by putting up their goods. People
took their automobiles to higher
ground and lashed down gas tanks
and other outside facilities. A shift
of wind to the northeast, however,
drove the tide out, and the citizens
of Belhaven drew a collective sigh
of relief when Sunday morning
dawned bright and sunny upon a
town refuse-littered but dry.
Lucky for many farmers had
been the long spell of beautiful
harvest weather which had per-
mitted the housing or marketing
of most all the great corn crop
this season. Much of the corn had
already gone on the market.
Some losses were sustained
when the wind whipped valuable
percentage of soybeans to shreds.
Many beans had not matured.

AN OLD POSITION
is JUSTIFIED
(Hertford County Heraldl

(Hertford County Herald)
Our position on something that
is really not our business-but
became everybody's at the time
seems to be strengthened by later
developments.
That is our belief that England's
Princess Margaret acted with UNI
common common sense when she
decided against marrying Captain
Peter Townsend in what was by
all odds the most read-about Incl
dent of whatever year it was.
Now comes the latest news that
Townsend, just back from a trip
around the world or some such, on
which he went to forget" his
blighted love affair with the royal
house, is going on another such
trip, and again, the newspapers
say he is going to forget"
Hogwash!
Townsend isn't marrying mater
ial for such as the Princess, who
has struck blow for good order
by turning down a man who is
willing to go on and on trading in
the headlines on something that
should have been private affair
from the beginning.
We said at the time that Mar
garet's decision to turn down this
fellow would rebound to the good
Her action in upholding moral
principles and the rule of duty has
great usefulness in a world when
low morality is the theme and
most of those who achieve noto-
riety in the headlines do so by
some act of moral looseness.

CAN'T 1 DONE TOLD YOU"
(The News and Observer)

(The News ana ODSerVer)
So now at the demand of Pearl
Bailey, the Negro singer, the dia-
lect is going to be removed from
the movie version of the Gershwin
folk opera "Porgy and Bess." And
in her victory hardly anybody
lately has done the cause of her
race more damage. In seeking to
make all Negroes dignified, she
has only succeeded in special eff
forts to make the Negro in song
and drama seem pretentiously ridi-
culous. 1t would make just as
much sense to have Porgy and
Bess play their Charleston sea-
front roles in tuxedo and teagown
as to rob them of the rich, earthly,
poetic dialect they spoke and sang.
1t is not mark of dignity in
any race to be ashamed of the dia-
lect spoken by it's simple people.
And the simple people of all races
have spoken in dialect and been
depicted proudly by their artists
as speaking language differing
from the formal and precise. Ger
tainly Robert Burns was not en-
gagged in defamation of the Scotch
when he wrote poems in the dia-
lect of his people. And he would
certainly be a stuffed shirt Scotch
man who would revise the dialect
out of his verses now. Presumably,
however, if Miss Bailey were Eng
fish and asked to sing the leading
role in "My Fair Lady," she
would feel it necessary to decline
to participate in any part but the
last act.
. This sort of foolishness has
gone too far. Under pressure on
networks Stephen Fosters songs
have been rewritten. Timid school
administrators have pu h d
"Huckleberry Finn" off their read
ing lists. And now one of the real
folk classics of our time will be
revised by Hollywood to please a
singer who declines to admit that
her people ever spoke anything but
patrician prose.
"Ain't / done told you?" must
go. That line, the United Press re-
ports caused Miss Bailey to "flare
up" angrily. So maybe now it must
be, "Could it be that have not
expressed myself to you?"
Lord deliver us from such folly
in the name of tolerance! 1t is
high time that some intelligent,
educated Negroes protested this
effort to reduce the Negro in art
to the status of colorless mani
kin, stripped of all the marks of
trouble and struggle, disadvantage
and, yes, some. ignorance. Dignity
remembers it's past. Only preten-
sion would erase it.
