SALVATION OF MANTEO'S
DOWNTOWN BUSINESS AREA.

Some businessmen in downtown Manteo having become
alarmed at the trend in recent years toward the large
mercal development along the back Highway g.
nave expressed to us the thought that the most forward step
that could be taken for the protection of the principal bust
ness area OF the town the waterfront would be for the
town to into long range development plan create
municipality owned parking and public dock beginning
In front of the courthouse and extending northward for
considerable distance occupied now mostly by
vacant and outdated buildings.
The idea is to these buildings buy the property by
bond issue necessary clean up the grounds and beautfy
them with shrubbery provide public dock to attract the
yachting trade that IL foot channel has been built
to Oregon Inlet and further deepening of the channel north
ward has been approved.
There time in the old days, when Manteos water
front its biggest commercial asset All boat lines depart
ed from it, and it the mail freight and passenger ter
nal for all Roanoke Island and large part of Dare County
also considerable fishing center All of these things
gone Many of the towns larger businesses located
westward the highway and the principal attractions
bringing people down town the hotel the bank the
courthouse and the ABC store.
There would be who would oppose the improve
ent suggested but of always

up the project and work it. it could be made pay big and
from final deterioration the fine trading which is
the most important asset the town has 1t would add
much wealth and great prestige through the years. and

COASTLAND SHOULD SPRUCE
UP AND DRESS UP BETTER

AS tourists who have just taken
the Oregon Inlet Ferry we were
delighted to read your account of
the new regulations soon to take
effect. Uniforms would certainly
make a better impression, and
l should think it would add dignity
to the attendants job.
May I also add few impressions
of the Outer Banks-from the tour
lists viewpoint?
First the negative: The only
road the tourist takes is the main
one. For many miles here is moth
ing to distract him from the beau
ty of the bay, the dunes and the
ocean. Then he drives through a
town and is appalled, at the slop-
piness of the yards, the junk, old
cars, chairs, bits of lumber and
broken down fences. There is no
attempt at gardens-or even neat
ly raked sand! If he stops to eat
land tourists do frequently he
looks for the "least rundown res
taurant."
Ocracoke was given a big write
up recently in a national magazine.
There was a lot said about the
quaintness and charm of it's wind
ing streets, the delicious food, etc.
etc. We drove there expecting to
stay a week. But the village was
so delapidated, junky and depres-
sing that we took the next ferry
back! Three other couples told US
they had the same reaction!
On the plus side: The Outer
Banks have tremendous beauty and
great potential as tourist mecca
But unless the towns are made
more attractive they will miss a lot
of business!
Could there not be an annual
contest between the towns for the
best civic mprovements-gardens,
interesting signs (such as natural
pine) for all advertising, colorful
neat stores, ETC., ETC.? This would
have a double barrelled effect: 1t
would increase the pride of the
villagers and intrigue the tourists
and their money!
Sincerely yours,
(Mrs.) Murlie M. Fitch

HOW NEEDY PERSONS
MAY GET FREE FOOD

What the surplus food program
is: For many years the United
States government has accumulat-
ed backlog of surplus foods. Presi
dent Kennedy has made this food
available in increased quantities to
states which wish to distribute it
to needy persons. North Carolina
is participating in the program.
The State Department Of Agri-
culture administers this program in
North Carolina. County depart
ments of public welfare certify per-
sons eligible to receive the food.
All persons who are receiving
public assistance and general as
sistance are eligible. Other needy
person not receiving financial as
sistance from public welfare may
be eligible, including unemployed
part-time employed and other per-
sons in need of food assistance.
However, the final determination
of need will be the responsibility of
the county superintendent of public
welfare. A person should apply at
the county department of public
welfare.
Federal law requires that the
food be in addition to present pay
ments. No time limit has been set
on the program at the present.
Foods to be given are corn meal,
flour, rice, milk, lard, dry eggs,
butter, peanut butter, pork and
gravy, and rolled oats.
The President of the United
States in his overall planning for
a sound agricultural policy has in
dictated that the huge surplus OF
food should be disposed of in a way
that will help those persons who
need it most.

AFTER GOOD CATCHES
WEATHER FOULS FISHING

Following good fishing during
the past week end the rough wealth
er since then has fouled up angl-
ing efforts of an increasing num-
her of folks who have come here
TO pit their skill against channel
bass, fresh water species, and fish
in the surf.
More than 80 channel bass the
largest 81 pounds were caught in
the surf on Saturday and Sunday,
near Hatteras Inlet. In addition the
first bluefish of the season, one
weighing a pound and one quarter
and caught by Mrs. T. D. Gwaltney
III of Smithfield, Va, was taken
from the Hatteras surf.
T. D. Smith of South Mays
Head caught several sea mullet
from Seaport Fishing Pier on Sun
day. The mullet We're small but
the fact that such fish were being
caugh north of Oregon Inlet was
encouraging for anglers. The Smith
catch was the first reported in the
Mays Head area, although others
fay have had similar luck.
Donald Oden at Hatteras report
ed on Thursday morning that win
dy weather had made fishing un-
favorable in the surf, but that
"round heads" (sea mullet) were
being caught near the village, He
stated that one of Capt. Edgar
Styron's cruisers had gone offshore
early Thursday but may have to
turn back due to rough seas.
w. S. White in Manns Harbor
when asked about fresh water fish
ing in East and South Lake said
ct was 'ttoo windy" but that few
bass and Dream had been AIKEN
from the more protected waters OF
roadside canals during the current
blow which was scheduled to end
this week end.
