FERRY BUSY IN AUGUST
CROSSING HATTERAS INLET

oCRACOKE, Sept. 7.-Hatteras
Inlet ferries carried 1881 cars
during the month of August and
did not miss scheduled trip. This
was within 16 cars Of 5000, the
highest number carried any month
this summer, The July figure was
slightly over 5000. In figuring the
number of persons who came to the
Island this route, one must bear in
mind that the count is made on a
car both coming and going, i. e,
any visitors to the Island come in
and go out and come back in, SO
actually the number Of cars is half
| of 5000, or three thousand. With
an average load of four persons
per car, this means that 10000
people visited the Island in August
At any rates hotels, motels, inns,
tourist homes, and cottages were
filled to capacity.

Dear Mr.. Editor.
l have been reading about the
bill President Ike vetoed whereby
a lot of public works projects
could have been completed in this
country for the benefit of our
people. These projects included a
lot of much needed waterways that
would help our people make a
living and our communities to
grow. This represented a lot of
hard work on the part of many
Congressman, including our own,
and yet our president wipes it off
the book with a veto. 1t called for
only billion dollars, but the presi-
dent never sneezes at giving away
several billions to foreigners, who
have long since learned they don't
have to work but need only to call
on the United States for provisions
and cash.
The Congress almost passed this
bill over likes veto, and missed it
by one vote, Had North Cardinals
lone Republican Congress m n
Jonas, joined with the rest of the
States delegation, the bill would
have been passed and benefited
many North Carolina communities.
Now admire those Congress-
men for taking it up and passing
another bill, and this same Jonas,
says he is going to stick by Ike
again, and to hell with North Caro-
lima because he's going to vote to
uphold Ike's last veto.
Well my friends, that's what we
get by betraying the party that has
been the friend Of this state, in
order to vote for Ike. Maybe they'll
get a belly full sometime but it will
be too late to help us old folks.
People needn't expect much
when they won't stand by their own
household, but this can be said.
Everytime a man betrays his
friends, a lot of innocent people
can get hurt too.
Mr.. Editor, do you ever stop to
think that here when the war has
been over for some is years, we
are still giving many nations, some
Of which fought US, billions Of dol
lars every year. Now this couldn't

sent Petition to Be Named
BY Sept. 30

A movement launched some six
months ago by interested citizens
and business men and women of
Dare County, announced this week

ors for the project, as well as
adequate business for the ven
ture.
A group of over twenty five
interested persons met to go over
the information gathered from all
parts of Dare County concerning
investors, prospective depositors,
and business prospects. The facts
indicated great interest in every
area of Dare County, Roanoke Is

propriate State and Federal agen-
cies is in progress, and a meeting

and directors of the proposed in
stitution, pending it's authorization
to do business.
Approximately three fourths OF
the proposed capital stock has been
subscribed to date, and total sub
scription is expected by the final

terest has been the desire to build
adequate banking facilities for all
of Dare County within the area,
and keep much of the business, be-
ing handled elsewhere of necessi-
ty, at home.
