HOUSING WE NEED

There has long been a desperate
need i'm Tabor City for more adequate
housing for both white and Negro.
There are far too many people living
in Substandard homes, and from these
ShackS children are growing up with
lopSided view of the world and
Democracy
The Federal Government. aware of
the need for housing not only in the
big towns but in the villages even as
small as 500 peope. two years ago
made il possible for towns with vision,
planning ability, and progressive
spirits, to eliminate part of the houS-
ing problem. BY reducing the popula-
ton limits from $4,000 to 500. the
government gave the Federal Housing
Authority the appropriations and
rules by which small towns could
eradicate its Slum areas and give even
the poorest people u chance to live
above the filth that many have known
for generation, or more.
In the State of Georgia. these
homes financed by the Federal Coy
eminent are Springing up in almost
every county. Some counties have
several towns with such projects.
They are building these homes for
white and Negro in different sections
of the towns. and all are nice. i.vabie
individual homes, not apartments
dumped together.
In North Carolina. Greenville.
Laurinburg, Murphy. Star. and White.
vile are in the process of getting
these homes approved and built.
Many, many other towns will soon
follow in their footsteps.
Tabor City has more than its share
of SubStandard homes and cou!d ap
ply and. we believe. get Il conseQuen-
tlal share of these housing units. 1t
would take conSidera bic work by
many civic-minded citizens VINO would
have to donate their time and efforts
with no hope of financial gain. II
would take aggressive city Govern
ment with men interested in the vel
fare OF the people and willing to wor,
to accomplish that end. 1t can be done
no other way
The question is, are the town Of
flciaiS interested in betlering the LOT
OF the citiZenry by going all-out tn
make the housing project a realitv2
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1962-06-13

There is no evidence, absolutely
none, as the State of Georgia will wit
ness, that these projects influence in
any manner the Indignation of the
races as some who oppose 1T would
have the people believe. Every
Southern project approved to date has
been on the firm basis of separate,
but equal in quality, projects for both
races.
These homes are built entirely by
federal funds. a local housing author
ity is appointed and these local people
manage the housing units. Those
folks who occupy these homes pay
rent based on what they earn. If they
have low earnings, then they pay
low rent. If they get better Jobs and
better pay, then that rent increases
III proportion to those earnings.
They must contract to keep those
homes in good state of repair with
the lawns moved regularly and every
thing else kept attractive. clean and
liVable.
From the rents collected and paid
to the housing authority, this COM
mittee pays the town an annual
shelter fee" instead of taxes. This
fee Is based entirely upon how much
revenue was derived from the project.
All monies over and above expenses
are then paid to the Federal Govern
meEt which hopes to get all its origi-
nal investment back in 40 years.
This housing movement is one in
which the local communities can only
win. There's no way of losing. And
while there are those. like us. who

Moving in the Rain
By Raw Wicker

LAST Tuesday we arrived in Tabor City from,
Chapel Hill closely followed by a NOTTINGHAM. full
of assorted beat-up furniture. and thunder storm
full of tree bending wind and buckle full OF rain
We later learned that it was the first rain to come
to these parts in quite while, so were glad it
followed us to town. The storm hit Just as the moving
men were unloading our humble belongings In our
apartment on Live Oak st. An hour later the rain
soaked movers left, and were officially at least,
living i'm Tabor City. .
With the furniture in out of the weather, our
next lob was to move the family = one wife, one
son Gage eight months) and one daughter Gage six
lears) Wednesday came and so did the family.
Tabor City already like home, since we
were raised in small town, and any town over
about 5000 people gives that crowded feeling.
We lived most of our life in Aberdeen small spot
up i'm the Sandhis of Moore County with population
of 1903 counting dogs cats, and an occasional Yankee
who come down to play golf We spent the last four
wears i'm Chapel Hill catching little book learning
n between working in Il printing office, and catching
numerous maps in class.

New Job

Mr.. Carter informed us last week that he Was
taking off a few days to drop fish hook IN Florida
waters. and was leaving the Tribune IN our lap
Since we had never worked on newspaper betoreO
It scared at first, but we figured the best way
to learn was i'm the old dot yourself school. SO
while the boss is fishing We'll try to get out paper
They gave us IA diploma at Chapel Hill last week
signed by Gov. Terry Sanford that says we know
something about the newspaper business, but after
reporting for work last Thursday we are beginning
to wonder if the governor knew what he was DONG.
There seems to be a vast difference in learning
something out of Il book and then trying to put IL
into practice.
We're looking forward to becoming part Of
thi, community and hope can learn enough about
he newspaper business to be able to stay around
Tabor City for years to come.
