IMANTEO BANK
PROPOSES TO

Frank B. Turner, President OF
The Bank of Manteo, and Archie
w. Mclean, President of The
Planters National Bank and
Trust Company, Rocky Mount,
announced this week that the
boards of directors of both in
stitutions have tentatively a
greed upon plan to merge the
two banks under the national
Bank and Trust Company, and
that it is the intention of both
banks to recommend in due time
the merger plan for approval to
the stockholders of the two
banks and to the supervisory
agencies.
Many benefits may be derived
from this joint association, when
it takes effect. Resources of the
Manteo bank, insofar as loan
ability, would be increased
roughly tenfold. in Addition,
employees of the facility would
enjoy insurance and other ben
fits not presently available. The
Manteo bank would, of course,
raise itself to standards of a
National bank, as compared to
the present statelimitation.

ISTORYHOUR PLANNED
FOR PRE-SCHOOLERS

The Dare County Library will
conduct a "storyhour" for chill
dren entering the first grade in
September, beginning on Tues
day, July 8, at 10 am. The pro-
gram will continue each Tues
day at the same hour until Aug.
81.
Mrs. Jean Ward, librarian, has
expressed appreciation to the
Health Department for permis-
sion to use their lawn for the
"storyhour" meetings. On rainy
days the children will meet in
the kitchen of the Community
Building.
Fifteen children have enrolled
and only five more can be ac-
cepted for the course, according
to the librarian. Mrs. Ward has
indicated that this pre-school
"storyhour" has proved to be of
value in preparing the child for
grade one. Training in reading
readiness and in group behavior
help the child to adjust more
easily to the classroom" she
said.
"The library is happy to offer
this service and invites parents
to take advantage of it," she
added.

IN CURRITUCK
THE BUSINESS
TREND IS UP
Heavy Increase In Vacation
Traffic Accounts for Smiles
from Businessmen

Farmers and merchants in
Currituck County have reported
a rise in business activity in the
area recently as a result of ma
turing crops and increased tour
ist traffic on Highway 158.
A number of merchants in
Currituck last week commented
that their businesses are already
reaping the fruits of an increas-
ing traffic flow to and from the
Dare beach area. Service station
operators were particularly
pleased with business trends but
many expressed concern over a
continuing gas war in this area.
One service station operator
said, 81 can't really complain
about my business, it's as good
or better than last year this
time. More cars are on the high
way every day." He went on to
add, "If l was making any pro-
fit from what gas l sell things
would be okay. Last week,
though, before l had sold all the
gas out of my tanks, I was sell
ing gas at retail prices cheaper
than what I had to pay for it.
Now that it's out l am able to
sell at about what it costs me.
guess when the. retail price goes
back up, if my tanks are full I'll
gain back about what I've lost"
Farmers in the area are al
ready harvesting and selling
truck crops which include fruits
and vegetables. Beans, peas,
squash and other local vegeta-
bles are being trucked from the
es are being trucked from the
area and sold in roadside stands
daily. Most Currituck farmers
have been optimistic about prices
and about the quality of their
produce this season. Farmers in
the southern part of Currituck
are presently preparing to har-
vest an annual peach crop which
should be, as one said, "right
good, considering the rain we
had"

.ATOMlc MERCHANTMEN SAVANNAH
/ CRUISES; CONGRESSMAN BONNER
HONORED. OFFERS HIGH PRAISE

Under warm, sunny skies, the
first of series of official in
spection trips was held last week
aboard the newly commissioned
MS SAVANNAH, the worlds
first nuclear merchant ship.
With the State flag of North
Carolina flying from the mast
head of the cleaning white yes
sell the Federal Maritime Ad-
minIstration of the Department
of Commerce and the Atomic
Energy Comission, honored First
District Congressman Herbert C.
Bonner for his leading part in
!. initiating this historic project.
This advanced concept in mer-
chant ship design and engineer
ing is the outgrowth of legisla-
tion sponsored by Mr.. Bonner in
1855.
Under the persistent effort of
the Committee on Merchant
Marine and Fisheries, of which
Congressman Bonner is Chair
man, the legislation was pressed
through the Congress despite
vigorous opposition from various
sources.
In addition to Mr.. Bonner, the
group aboard the trim and
smokestackless vessel consisted
members of the House Merch-
ant Marine Committee, officials
of the Department of Commerce
Maritime Administration, the
Atomic Energy Commission, the
United States Coast Guard,
States Marine Lines (the agents
for the ship, and others.

stration of the practical applica-
tion of nuclear power to water.
transportation the vessel sailed
from her temporary home at
Yorktown, Virginia, close by the
historic site of the final battle
Of the Revolutionary War and

General Washington vin 1881.
She then proceeded out the
mouth of the York River and
across Chesapeake Bay and re-
turned, while the visitors were

even entire plant systems, will
be changed, when it is indicated
that significant improvements
can be made.
This fine new ship has five
important missions:
(D To demonstrate to the
world the employment of nuclear
power in an instrument of peace
for the benefit of mankind,
(2) To bring the power of the
atom into the market places Of
the world in peaceful trade and
commerce,
(3) To enlighten the. public to
the fact that nuclear-powered
ships are entirely dependable
and safe,
(4) To stimulate early solu-
tions to such problems as inter-
national liability and indemnifi-
cation, and, win for nuclear
ships, acceptance in the worlds
ports,
(5) To give the Maritime Ad-
ministration and the Atomic En-
ergy Commission the opportuni-
ty for prudently assessing the
the possible contributions of a.
tonic power to the progress Of
the American Merchant Marine
in providing shipping services
on routes essential for prudently
assessing the possible contri-
buttons of atomic power to the
progress of the American Mer-
chant Marine in providing ship
ping services on routes essential
for maintaining the. flow of the
foreign commerce of the United
States.
On recent acceptance trials,
MS SAVANNAH exceeded her
designed capabilities, reaching
speeds of over 22 knots. She
successfully passed all tests, in
cluding sudden stops, manuever-
ability, steering and reactor
tests. The ship was accepted
from the builder on May /, 1862,
following the successful COM
pletion of these tests.
The joint AEC/Maritime
group will file written report
of initial tests and sea trial re-
suits with the Aces regulatory
staff. Upon review of the re-
ports by the Acc staff on re-
actor safeguards, the findings
will be placed in the public rec
ord, after which public hear
ing will be held. Upon favorable
completion of the hearings, the
SAVANNAH will then enter a
period of extended experimental
operations, during which time
she will visit major United
States ports and then at later
date foreign ports.
At the conclusion of the
brief VOYAGE Mr.. Bonner said:
"This great ship represents an
other major milestone in the
history of the development of A
merican seapower. We may all
be proud of this achievement
and we must move on by bold
succeeding steps to meet the
challenge of the future"
