come to this courthouse to hear
me, I'll certainly remember
you.~
Such was the promise of Fay

who appeared in Whiteville last
Thursday to gain support in his
pre-campaign movement through

fically announce to the approxi-
mately 100 persons there that

throughout eastern North Caro-

a meeting that lasted just about
an hour. From here he went on

Another phase of the economy

economy and must be further

Sanford stated that the econo-
my of the farmer must be lifted
to put him on the par with in
lduStry. He touched briefly on the
highway situation and also said
a few words on highway safety.
Sanford concluded his short
talk by saying that North Caro-
lima must have strong schools,
supported by a strong farm econ
lomy and strong system of in
dustrial development.
The gubernatorial candidate
was introduced to the group by
Alec Gregg of Lake Waccamaw.

Phone Rate
Rise Fought
In Maryland

BALTIMORE, July 6 (AP).-
The Public Service Commission
was asked today to order a re-
duction rather than an increase
in rates of the Chesapeake &
Potomac Telephone Co. in
Maryland.
Rudolf A. Carrico, Peoples
Counsel, made the countermove
in opening his attack on the
utility's petition to increase
rates about 10 per cent.
Mr.. Carrico asked the COM
mission to suspend the present
rates and direct the C8SP to
file a new schedule based on
the last PSC decision"
Wilfred T. McQuaid, the for
mer peoples counsel, had
claimed the C&P earned Sc
million more than was author
lied by the commission in 1858.
He sought to have the C&P
refund the money to custom
ers, but the commission decided
it did not have such authority.
Mr.. Carrico argued before the
PSC that "the telephone COM
pany is not entitled to the
new increase it proposes" He
said the present rates in Balti-
more are higher than any of
the country's Is largest cities.

Mrs. wilkins said the an
nexation plans of Falls Church
got me to reading the code
carefully" The code indicates,
she said. that it simply is nee
essary to call the matter TO the
attention of the Circuit Court
and the court would have to
declare Falls Church a city of
the first class.
I'm considering annexation
they should also consider the
fact that they will have to be-
come a f1rst-class CITY," she
said. That's going to cost
them a pretty penny"
State Senator John A. K.

practically speaking" no one
could force Falls Church to be-
come city of the first class
unless the person seeking to
do so is a party of interest.
Must Be Party of Interest
The supervisors, or Mrs. Will
kins, being outside the city,
would not be party of interest
and the attempt to force first
class city status on Falls

Proposed Plan Endorsed
Fairfax County Planning En-
gineer John Yaremchuk said
his Jurisdiction indorsed the
proposed solution of the inter-
sections traffic problem.
E. H. Pierce, jr., area man
ager for the Mobile Oil Co.,
which recently opened a sta
ton on Duke street at Taylor
Run Parkway, said his firm
has mo quarrel with anything
that will move traffic" He ex-
pressed concern, however, over
access to the station from the
interchange.
The Jensen Manufacturing
Co., which recently completed
its new plant at 2644 Duke
street. asked that full con-
sideration" by the city be given
to any plan which would elm
mate the factory.
In response to a question by
Mr.. Croft about why the inter-
change was shifted west of the
present intersection, w. M. JEFF
freSS, assistant district engineer
with the State Highway De-
partment, said that construc-
ton costs are lowered by shift
ing the interchange.
Pointing out that the shift OF
the interchange would demolish
five recently constructed build
ings, Mr.. Croft asked whether
the increased construction costs
would be as large as the cost
Of buying these new buildings.
Mr.. Jeffress replied, That's
something that would have to
be studied"
Residents of the area sur
surrounding the interchange
expressed concern over their
access to Duke street. Hubert

could have access to his ground
if he planned to develop it

stand the position of Fairfax
County in opposing the annex

not believe the city could be
forced to- change it's status if
it didn't want to.
