DOLPHIN CATCHES UP TO PAR

MACS HEAD.-Dolphin catches
by anglers fishing from Oregon In
let and Hatteras based cruisers this
year have been up to par in recent
days, but Gulf Stream fishing gen.
orally had gotten off to a slow
start during May. June catches
have been considerably better.
In addition to dolphin, excellent
catches of small tuna, amberiack;-
albacore and king mackerel have
been made by the angler who fished
for these species.
Inshore bluefishing has been fair
at the inlets, cobia fishing has been
very good, and founder fishing has
been very productive. Pier opera
tors report fishing fair to ex-
cellent depending on weather and
tides.
Newest fishing pier on the Dare
Coast opens for business at Ro-
danthe on Hatteras Island, July 2.
This pier gives Dare Coast a total
of five and sixth pier is nearing
completion in lower Mays Head.

HOW OREGON SETS ABOUT
WHIPPING RELIEF PROBLEM
(Mooresville, N. C. Tribune)

(MooreSvllle, N. e. Irlbune)
Eight counties in Oregon have
adopted plan for public welfare
that should be adopted in 100 coun-
ties in North Carolina.
No matter how good the times,
the cost of public welfare goes ever
upward. In Iredell county alone,
for instance, it has jumped from
$150,000 a year to around half
million dollars in the past Is years.
This comes about chiefly because
of the population growth and be-
cause medical science continues to
expand the span of human life.
The movement in the eight
counties in Oregon is expected to
spread to all counties in the state.
1t will reverse the trend of mount
ing relief costs, will save the tax
payers millions spent on relief pay
ments.
The plan is simple. In those eight
counties all able-bodies men on re-
lief rolls are required to work on
public projects. If there is any
doubt about mans ability to
work, he is given a thorough physi-
cal examination.
A study shows that from 20 to
IS per cent of the men certified
as able to work refused to work.
The welfare people try to find out
why, and if the reason is that the
reluetants are just plain lazy, then
all relief payments are cut off.
Many of the relief clients, faced
with the prospect of having to earn
living, have gone to work on their
own, preferring to choose jobs
rather than being assigned to work
with road gangs. Some others have
moved over to counties where the
plan has not yet been adopted and
where they can still get their re-
lief payments as straight handouts
and no work required.
The Oregon plan serves several
purposes. 1t takes able-bodied men
off the public dole. 1t chases
some deadbeats back into gainful
employment. And it gives the tax
payer some relief from this ever
spreading racket.
The plan seems to be sound,
equitable and fair, The wonder is
that somebody hasn't thought Of it
sooner.
1t is plan that merits the scru-
tiny of our next General Assembly.
Unless they can find something
radically wrong with it, they should
adopt it.

UNCLE DOCK FROM DUCK WRITES:
We Cant Make Progress in This CoastIand
By Biting Off Our Nose to Spite The Face

to the public goes, think they have
a right to tell you and me how
to vote.
Let us see, Mr.. Editor, on Sat-
urday, if our people are going out
and use commonsense or listen TO
agitators. Let us see if We, can
slap our real friends in the face,
Let us see if we are determined to
prove to the world that we are
foolish as we sometimes are and
completely without appreciation
and wish to be marked up as the
prime ingrates of our state.
1t would be nice to be on the
high side one time, and show that
I'VE appreciate the things our
friends away from home have done
for us. To show that we are not
going to be pulled around by the
nose and told what to do by any
body and everybody who drifts in
and tries to take over, without do
ing anything first TO thelp the peo-
pie who feed him.
Let us hope our people will stand
on their feet this time and work
for and with their friends: Let us
come away from the polls on Sat
urday after having Joined hands
with those who can continue to
help us, if we continue to show
them we want them to help us.
Best wishes for all those who are
not trying to give everything
away. 1t took a lot of hard work
to get what we got. 1t looks like
somebody is paying a lot to get it
away from US, and there are some
suckers agreeable to it.
Best wishes, always,

CAPE HATTERAS AREA
CALLED BLUE MARLIN
81 CAPITAL OF THE WORLD"
By> AYCOCK BROWN

HATTERAS, June 25.-Now the
man who said it wasn't has ad.
mitted that North Cardinals Cape
Hatteras area is "The Blue Marlin
Capital of the World"
Esteban A. "Chilo" Bird, captain
of the Club Nautico de San Juan
team which won first place in the
Hatteras Marlin Club sponsored In
ternational Blue Marlin Tourna.
ment ending here last week made
the statement in the presence OF
Governor Luther H. Hodges on the
final day of the tournament. Not
only did Esteban's team win first
place, but he with two giant mar
lin, weighing 355, and $50 pounds
respectively, was top man in in
dividual scoring.
Governor Hodges" said Team
Captain Bird, ~ want to make a
statement. Now / am convinced
that Cape Hatteras is the blue mar
lin capital of the world"
Back in 1858 Bird had other
ideas. Reading John Randolph's
New York Times one autumn day
that year he learned of the 70 blue
marlin taken during the preceding
season. Randolph also quoted his
Dare Coast reporter who stated
"Cape Hatteras is becoming the
blue marlin capital of the world"
Bird Immediately contacted by
long letter the originator of the
statement on the Dare Coast. "We
believe Puerto Rico has more blue
marlin that your Cape Hatteras,"
he wrote and added, "To settle the
question, Club Nautico de San Juan
challenges a Cape Hatteras team
to determine whether more marlin
can be taken off North Carolina
or Puerto Rico.
DR.. j. C. Overbey, president Cape
Hatteras <Billfish Club here, ac-
cepted the challenge and formed a
five man team to fish against a
five-man team headed by Bird of
Puerto Rico. In June matches last
year the teams fished off Hatteras
and caught seven blue marlin. In
August off Puerto Rico in a re-
turn match three fish We're caught.
Still there was some question in
the mind of Bird.
During the week of tournament
this year 20 giant marlin were
boated off Hatteras from rough
waters. Seventeen of the giant
blues were officially entered in the
tournament for scoring.

TELEPHONE TAX SHOULD
NOW BE ELIMINATED
pine Bluff Commercial,

The federal excise taxes used to
be confined to small list of lux
ury items--liquor, furs, tobacco
products, etc. Then, as World War
II emergency measure, these taxes
were extended to certain purely
necessary and essential services,
such as transportation and the tele-
phone.
A Gallup Poll has found that the
tax on telephone communications
is the most unpopular Of all excise
taxes, for the simple reason that
it adds to the cost of a genuine
necessity. Moreover, state regula-
tory authorities condemn this tax
as being @ininnicable to the main
tenance of reasonably priced and
discriminatory communications
service" because it adds unreal
sonably to the rates and charges
which they have carefully estab-
lished. On top of that, it Is un-
doubleday a discriminatory tax,
since it singles out the telephone
from the other essential household

Dear Mr.. Editor:

Dear Mr.. Editor:
l wonder how many people are
seriously thinking about how inn
portant Saturday can be to us
people who live down here in this
coastland and who never got, a
thing without the help of friends
who live away from here.
We just don't have enough power
among ourselves to do much, ex-
cept as we show our spirit and
interest when we go out and vote
On Saturday, the people of North
Carolina will say by their vote who
will be Governor for the next four
years.
What are we going to have to
say about it? Are we going out
there and vote wild and radical just
because someone tells US we ought
to be different and show what we
can do? Do we vote merely to spite
somebody? If we do, we are just
biting off our own nose to spite
our face!
When someone comes up and
tell me what to do, l usually con-
slider by what right this party con-
siders himself important enough to
tell me how to vote. l ask a few
questions:
What has this fellow ever done
for me and for our county? What
has he ever given the people, how
much weight has he got, away
from home? What could he do for
himself, if he got in a jam? How
would he get along without friends
to help him out?
Yet, right now, some who have
been only troublemakers and who
are useless so far as their value

the telephone tax and the other
