WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Feb. 8
(AP).-A two-man Czech trade
delegation yesterday began
meetings with the Canadian
Wheat Board for substantial
purchases Of Canadian grain.
Canada recently made large
sales Of wheat to Red China
and the Soviet Union.
Karel Jiracek, deputy man
aging director Of the Czech

wouldn't have bothered coming
to Canada If all he wanted was
800, 900 bushels of wheat. This
was one Of the figures on Czech
requirements circulating here.
!. He gave no figures Of Com
munist Czechoslovakia's total
requirements for grain imports.
It's usual suppliers are Russia
and Red China. He said Russia
and China are meeting their
contract commitments.
Mr.. Jiracek said reports of
poor crops in Russia and China
due to drought had no connec-

The situation in public

There District officials evolved
a policy Of completely open
occupancy. The result: Today
more than 80 per cent of the
8,100 public housing units are
occupied by Negroes.
Nobody is happy about this
ratio. Mr.. Tucker, himself a
Negro, would like to see a more
balanced one. He said public
housing officials in recent
years have sounded him out
on controlling admission to
units by race to achieve more
balance.
This poses a tough question
for all those philosophically in
favor Of open occupancy.
Agreeing to quotas violates the

Generally speaking, open

most controversial concerning
housing built partly or wholly
with Federal funds-like urban

Negro organizations are at

Congress. largely because of
opposition from Southern law
makers, has never written

This lack of a Federal man

thority into the hands of local
housing officials. In much of
the South, for instance, pub

Urban renewal officials -.
chiefly those In the Redevelop-

funds for such protection must be
made available by the public

A REPORT ON
BOATING SAFETY
ACTIVITIES IN N. G.
BY ROD AMUNDSEN

The art of boating has been in
existence since the first cave man
made his way across a stream on
a floating log. Laws regulating the
use of small boats are much more
recent, being of general application
in North Carolina only since the
1859 General Assembly passed the
Boating Safety Act.
The need for controlling boat
ing activity became obvious when
Americans, nationwide, took to
spending their leisure time afloat.
Pleasure boating has been one of
the fastest growing forms of rec
reation in recent times. When
many people engage in particular
form of recreation, whether it be
a card game or an athletic con-
test, rules or Laws become neces-
Sary.
The Honorable Herbert c. Bon
ner, one of the Nations outstand-
ing representatives to Congress,
authOred the Federal Boating Act
of 1858, "to encourage uniformity
of boating laws, rules and regula-
lions among the several states and
the Federal Government to the full
lest extent practicable, subject to
reasonable exceptions arising out
of local conditions -"
In effect, the Bonner Act relieved
the U. S. Coast Guard from respon-
Hbility for numbering boats power
ed by machinery of more than ten
horsepower, and gave this and 9th
er responsibilities to states whose

or formula for the use of said mon
les for employing and equipping
such additional personnel as may
he necessary for carrying out the
provisions Of this Act and for pay
ing a proportionate share of the
salaries. expense, and operation
al costs of existing personnel ac-
cording to the time and effort ex-
pended by them in carrying out the
povisions of this Act. Such plan or
formula may be altered or amended
from time to time by the Wildlife
Resources Commission as existing
condition may warrant :"
A formula, as prescribed by law,
was worked out. 1t provided for 40
OF wildlife protectors time as de-
scribed above, 2Oeo of the use of
equipment during the boating sea-
son, plus appropriate compensation
back to the Wildlife Resources
Fund for boating safety education
and related activities.
In spite of curtailed activities
resulting from a shortage of funds,
North Cardinals boating safety
program has met with approval.
The boating public-having de-
mand enforced safety on the states
waters-began to believe that the
presence of uniformed and trained
officers policing these waters was
making them safer for leisurely
outdoor recreation,
But let's look at the record. Dur
ing calendar year 1860 wildlife
protectors boarded or otherwise
examined 41,S07 boats, citing 1919
boat operators for violations of the
boating safety law. During the
same year, 40 persons were killed
as result of boating accidents.
Eighty-three accidents occurred in
volving 80 injuries and property
damage amounting to $2S,661.
There are no previous records of
boating accidents for comparison
since mandatory boating safety is
little more than a year old. During
calendar year 1860 fewer than 49,
600 boats were registered in North
Carolina.
Forty fatalities among $4,000
registered boat owners does not
compare favorably to only IL hunt
ing fatalities among more than
100000 licensed hunters during an
equivalent period. Each of the AGO.
600 licensed hunters, while hunting,
bore lethal weapon; and North
Carolina law does not provide for
mandatory hunter safety.
The Future Outlook
Where do we go from here?
Within reasonable limits, North
Cardinals boating safety program
will be as good as income from
boat registration will allow. Obivi-
ously, more funds are needed. Our
Legislature believes that the
boating safety program should be
self sustaining in essentially the
same manner as our wildlife con-
servation is paid for by buyers of
hunting and fishing licenses. There
are several possibilities for acquir-
ing more funds, each to be deter
mined by legislative perogative.
None void meet with popular ap-
prevail.
AS matters stand as of January
81, 1861, the Wildlife Resources
Commission has received $17O,229
in boating registration revenue
The coastland times with which is combined the pilot and herald of Belhaven and Swan Quarter. [volume] (Manteo, N.C.) 1959-1973, 1961-04-14

legislatures passed suitable laws.
North Carolina was among the
first states to have such law.
Where the Coast Guard had juris-
diction only on certain waters AMI
over certain types of boats, the
Bonner Act and subsequent state
laws have made possible reasonable
control over boats on all public
waters.
The N. C. Boating Safety Act of
1869 bore an effective date of JAN
uary 1, 1860. In writing the law,
the Legislature realized that before
the Wildlife Resources Commission
1.-THE agency of government respon-
sible for carrying out the provis-
ions of the Act) could begin regis
tering boats certain organizational
structures would have to be set up.
These would cost money. To facili-
ate getting the boating safety pro-
gram under way, the Act provided
for a loan of 100000 from the
States Contingency and Emergen-
cy Fund.
Organization
The Boating Safety Act allows
the Commission to select boating
safety committee from within its
membership, and to implement ohe
administrative, enforcement and
education requirements of the
law within its organizational struc-
ture under supervision of the Ex-
ecutive Director. Numbering of
boats and accounting for boat
registration funds was dele
gated to the Finance and Per-
sonnet Division, enforcement to the
Wildlife Protection Division, and
safety education to the Education
Division. Thus activity pertaining
to the Act was incorporated into
the Commissions overall program
without setting up a separate boat
ing safety division. To handle the
additional work load in the Raleigh
office one accountant, two account
ing clerks, two stenographers and
one education representative were
employed.
Actual registration of boats and
the assignment of numbers to boat
operators was begun in December,
1859, since boats coming within the
provisions of the law We're required
to display numbers beginning JAN
uary l. Further, boating safety ed
ucation was begun prior to the eff
fective date of the law to give in
formation to the boating public on
the safety requirements and the
other provisions of the Act. Hence
it was necessary to employ addit-
ional personnel and purchase con-
siderable office equipment before
any money was received from reg
istration fees. 1t was for this rea-
son the law provided for borrowing
100000 from the Contingency and
Emergency Fund. This amount
must be repaid by September, 1861
as the law now stands.
Coast Guard Approval
The Bonner Act requires that
states passing motorboat safety
laws have their system of number
ing boats approved by the U. S..
Coast Guard. This provision was
made to bring about uniform boat
registration procedures among the
several states. North Cardinals
system of numbering was approx
ed without any difficulty.
Under the Bonner Act the Coast
Guard relinquishes only its respon-
sibility for numbering certain
classes of boats. It still maintains
authority to enforce boating safety
