Treasury Surplus of ST. Billion for Year
Roted Achievement Benefitinq Everyone

Unfortunately, there are
some disturbing signs on the
horizon. Yielding to political
and group pressures, the
Democratic c-controlled Con-
gress has just overridden a
presidential veto of a $750-
million expenditure that was
not in the planned budget
for the new fiscal year which
has just begun.
This is the second time a
veto by President Eisenhower
has been overridden in Con-
gress, both of which involved
an extravaganza and not an
absolute necessity. The in
crease, for instance, in the
Federal-payroll expense just
authorized by law amounts
to about 71a to 20 per cent
for the employees affected,
though the cost-of-living in
dex has advanced less than
IL per cent.
Every presidential candi-
date on the Democratic side
naturally felt he had to be
in favor of the increase, and
there were group pressures
which helped to sway mem
bers of both parties.
If, therefore, the overriding
of a presidential veto on a
question of economy is a
sign of what's coming in the
future, especially if a Demo-
cratic president should be
elected who goes along with
the spending" proclivities of
his party in Congress, then
maybe the surplus which has
just been achieved will be
the last for many years to
come.
Somehow the country has
not been as responsive lately
to the argument for an eco
nomical administration as it
was a year ago when the big
deficit of the previous year
was in the public mind. AS the
budget begins to be balanced,
thoughts in Congress seem to
turn toward spending not
only the surplus but a good
deal more.

Carl FurillO Fumes at Being Dropped by Dodgers

LOS ANGELES, R = One of baseball's longest and brightest associations came to an end yes- terday when the Dodgers gave Carl Furillo his unconditional release.
 It ended not on the usual hearts and flowers theme, but in bitterness an d counter -accusa- tions.
 E J. Bavasi, the Dodgers vice president and general manager, announced that the 38-year-old onetime hero of Flatbush had reached the end of the line with the Dodgers.
 "Furillo has been given his un- conditional release" said Bavasi

When six Dare County men on
May 10, found a sailing yacht,
called a Ketch, in the breakers near
Salvo last week, one of them swan
out to her, put a line on the boat,
and they got it ashore and saved 1t

keepers in cases where vessels are
abandoned at sea, they laid claim
to the boat in its entirety.
But when the insurance under

also claimed it, since it was their
risk TO pay for it. The boat is said
to have cost $4,000. The boat,

SMALL HARBORS
PLAN APPROVED
BY co. BOARD
Survey To Be Made Of Needs Of
All Communities To Determine
Project Size and Cost

A plan whereby the small har-
Dor needs of Dare's several COM
munities can be met is to be set
up for early action. The County
Commissioners this week agreed
in principle on making survey
of the needs of the communities,
whereby size of projects desired
and costs could be established in
order to plan for financing the i'm
provements needed.
Several small harbors of the
county, planned for the needs of
more than 80 years ago, are now
insufficient and some are in a con-
dition impossible insofar as bene-
fits to most fishermen go.
The small harbors, long used by
fishermen and aided by the county
from time to time, include the COM
munties of Duck, Kitty Hawk, Col
ington, Wanchese, Manns Hal'bor,
Stumpy Point, Mashoes, Rodanthe,
Waves, Salvo, Buxton, Frisco and
Hatteras.
Random estimates place the sum
needed to repair and put these har-
bors in condition at about $4,000.
Studies of the projects have been
underway by the county board for
a year.
The community of East Lake is
expected to have one of the finest
harbors in the area as negotiations
are underway to get the ferry
slip conveyed to the county for
public use on completion Of the
Alligator River bridge.
Already scheduled for early I'M
provement is the Manns Harbor
ditch built by the county many
years ago. Estimates are being pre-
pared for repairs to the county
ditch at Stumpy Point.

GREAT VALUE OF

Management Can Bring Profits
From Pulpwood Speaker in
Hyde Points Out

SWAN QUARTER. - The close
relationship between Hyde Co.
forests and the nations economy
was dramatically shown at a meet
ing of the Lions Club. This month,
in support of the "Pulp and Paper
Week" detectives.
In a program held in conjunction
with the southwide observance of
Pulp and Paper Week, e. K. Pit
man of Weyerheuser Company,
North Carolina Pulp Company.
Subsidiary, said that supplying the
raw material needed for the ma
TONS expanding pulp and paper
industry has placed "the trees of
the South in the mainstream OF
Americas modern marketing econo-
N.Y."
During color slide film presen-
tation entitled "Care of the Forest
Helps Paper Have Its Day." Mr..
Pitman said, "There are 1913, 000, 900
acres of commercial forest land in
the IL states of the South which al
ready supply nearly two-thirds OF
the raw material needed by the
pulp and paper industry"
It was pointed out that immature,
fast growing trees in well-stocked
stands soon crowd themselves out
Of full productivity unless enough
space is provided to give each tree
plenty of sunlight, food and water
at each stage Of it's development.
"The wise landowner provides
this needed space by periodic cut
tings," Mr.. Pitman said. Trees cut
in these operations when forests
are young give the remaining trees
adequate space for continuous and
intensive development of a much
healthier forest, better able to
withstand attacks from insects and
Diseases, he continued.
Total forest productivity means
more than just the production OF
pulpwood, it was explained. 1t in
corporates the utilization Of a va
riety of sizes and kinds of trees
for such products as lumber, poles,
piling, veneer, hardboard and many
others, the speaker said.
Many public minded agencies
in the South are working together
to promote this pattern of con-
tinuous productivity among indivi-
dual landowners, Mr.. Pitman said.
One of those agencies, the South

alton, has developed q three-foldl
