Hawaii State Stamp
To Be Single Color
BY BELMONT FAIRIES
Star Stamp Editor

Lie I-CSIlI OH AlloAA I1d AVIAN
statehood stamp will be
printed in a single color, the
Post Office Department an
nounced yesterday as it re-
leased photographs Of the
design.
Joseph Feher'S art work for
the stamp, selected by a COM
mittee named by the Cover
nor of Hawaii, was approved
after minor changes.
Mr.. Feher'S picture of a
Hawaiian warrior lifting a
welcoming lei to an Ameri-
can eagle bearing the star Of
statehood in its claws was
meant to symbolic the final
indignation of Hawaii into
the United States.
Deletion of the eagle and
enlargement of the star, as
suggested by the Stamp
Advisory Committee, simpli-
fled the design without harm
ing the symbolism. The
position of the ~. S. Air
Mail 7c" inscription also was
changed slightly in the final
version.
The stamp will be issued at
Honolulu on the day Hawaii
becomes a State, probably in
early August. Covers for
f1rst-day cancellations should
be sent to the Postmaster,
Honolulu, Hawaii, with re-
mittance of 7 cents for each
stamp required.

BlufftOn Firm
May Manufacture
Gas "GO-Carts"

What may develop into a new
business in Bluffton was given
impetus last Saturday by the
Historical Car Festival and the
appearance Of two small gas
powered "go-carts" which made
an enormous hit with the towns
small fry - and adults, too.
1--WE had been toying with the
idea of making a pilot model of
one of these carts, and possibly
putting them on the market, "
Frank Steiner of Steiner's Gen
eral Repair said Tuesday.
After Saturdays appearance of
two carts being marketed by
Neal Machine and Tool, Lima,
Steiner said that he had been
swamped with inquiries on when
he was going to start building
them locally.
He estimated that he had at
least 18 good prospects for the
little machines which will be
powered by a two and a half to
five h. p. motor. They would be
capable of speeds of Is to rs
miles per hour.
Not only youngsters, but adults
are interested in the go-carts,
Steiner said. 1t seems to be a
new fad that may become a big
thing.
In some communities special
tracks are being built for oper-
ating the carts safely. 1t may
be possible that something of this
type can be accomplished here,
Steiner said.
