A Red-called walkout Topped

Red belt around Reggie Emilia,
Bologna and Modena it brought
commercial and industrial ac-
tivity to a standstill.
The wave of rioting, in which
more than 500 demonstrators
and 200 policemen have been
hurt began two weeks ago and
reached its bloodiest pitch in
street fighting yesterday in the
northern industrial city of Reg
gio Emilia. Five rioters were
killed and one policeman was
critically wounded in an ex-
change Of gunfire in that Red
stronghold. About 20 others
were injured.
Police said they fired ma
chineguns into the air after
the demonstrators used fire.

1000 diehard demonstrators
fought behind barricades and
on rooftops, hurting stones and
homemade gasoline bombs.
Fists flew again in Paliament

Mr.. Tambroni, who is ruling

GOVERNMENT PROMISES
TO HELP SHRINdPERS
Unvirsity Of Florida VIII Conduct Sur
veY To Determine Facts About
Industry
(From The Southport Pilot)

(From The Southport Pilot)
The government recently set in
motion a study of ways to help
the ailing shrimp industry.
The Interior Department an
nounced there will be an intensive
analysis of competitive conditions
in the field.
1t said the industry is in eco
nomic distress even though it hold
first place in dollar value of all
U. S. fishery products.
Shrimp imports have increased,
with indications they totaled 107
million pounds in 1859 compared
with s5 million pounds in 1858.
The 1858 total was more than
double the 1854 import.
AS first phase of the study,
the University of Florida has been
awarded contract to:
l. Assess the efficiency of boat
operations in the principal shrimp
industries of the South Atlantic
states and the Gulf of Mexico area.
2. Appraise each fishery as a
potential source of supply, bear
ing in mind port facilities, labor
available, navigational hazards, and
shore facilities for processing, re-
frigeration and transport.
This phase is to cost not more
than $16,400.
The study will be conducted in
the shrimp fisheries in North Car
DINA, South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, NJ i S i S ST. ii
Louisiana and Texas.
The ultimate objective will be
to determine the position of the
domestic shrimp industry in rela-
ton to foreign shrimp industries,
to analyze special problems in pro-
ductivity, and to recommend meas
ures to solve or mitigate such prob
lens.

MERELY WILD DESIRE
TO PUNISH THE SOUTH
To The Editor:


We hear much about hate litera-
ture these days, but what about
hate legislation? l am speaking of
"hate the South" civil rights legis-
lation. This legislation was meant
for "Southerners only"
When an amendment was offer
ed by Senator Lausche to extend
the provision to cover violation of
all Federal court orders, not just
those involving school de-segre-
cation, a motion was made to kill
the entire measure. Rather than
run the risk of eventual enactment
OF the proposal, they killed it. If
passed, the legislation could have
been used to curb unions involved
in injunction disputes. In other
words, the anti-Southern lawmak-
ers didn't want to enact a law to
punish all violators, but they just
wanted to make it crime if a
Southerner violated an injunction.
1t is elementary that the laws
as written by the lawmakers apply
equally to all. And it is the duty
of the judges TO see that the laws
which are enacted do apply to all.
1t is the righteousness of intent
OF those back of these proposed
laws which has prompted the term
infamous civil rights" to be ap-
piled to them.

MORE PRAISE EXTENDED
THE LIBRARY IN MANTEO
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Among the many pleasant sur
prises which awaited our family as
newcomers to Dare County was the
discovery of it's excellent library.
1t was Immediately obvious that
much thought, vision and discern
ment had gone into it's makeup.
Four years of association with the
library have confirmed this early
impression.
Of special interest to our aspir-
ing artist is the exceptionally COM
plete art collection, which includes
volumes of superb reproductions as
we'll as much helpful technical ma
terial.
The younger members of the
family never fail to find reading
suited to their various isterests and
activities. The junior science books
have been of great assistance in
school projects and home hobbies.
The library offers a real feast to
the pleasure reader, who may
choose from a balanced variety of
photography, essays, travel
books, science for the general
reader, as we'll as drama, poetry
and good selection of the classics.
History is presented in it's larger
aspects and witout bias. Fiction has
been selected with taste, and is
worthy of it's shelf space.
We are happy to express here
our appreciation for the use of
the Dare County Library. Its at
tractive atmosphere, it's ever cour-
teous and helpful staff make every
trip pleasure. We are convinced
that few small communities possess
libraries which offer their readers
such bounty.
