MAINS Harbor's MI. Carmel Church
Has New EducafionaI Building Underway

| Methodism first came into the
Manns Harbor area sometime
around 1900 when preachers be-
gan to come by and hold serv-
ices. The first church building
for Manns Harbor formerly
Croatan) is said to have been
across the main highway from
the Lee Mann property. The
second building was situated
where the home of the late C..
IW. Mann now stands. Mr.. Tom
Emory Mann donated land for a
third building which was erect
ed about 1888, while the Rev.
Joseph Lennon from the Vir-
ginia M e hodist Conference
was the preacher in charge. The
building was remodeled, and it
was dedicated by Bishop Kilgo
/ in 1916 while the Rev. Marvin
B. Cox was pastor.
The church was moved to its
present site and repaired in 1949
after being damaged by hurri-
cane. The Rev. w. B. Gregory
was pastor at that time. One of
the earliest preachers remem-
bered who served the church was
the Rev. Thomas Hayman.
Since the church was moved
to its present site, the. Rev.
Tracy Varnum, The Rev. A.L.G.
Stephenson and the Rev. George
M. Kelly have served on the
charge. The Rev. Stephenson
served for seven years.
The present Pastor, is the
Rev. C. R. Olson of Manteo. Dur
ing his services with the church,
all obligations with the Confer
ence have been met in full. A
new roof has been added, and
new light fixtures have been
installed.
A new educational building is

Head.
He soon discontinued the Mays
Head trips, and moved his ferry
operations to Curl'ituck Sound
in 1927 when he secured a lar
ger boat specifically built fol
ferry service and took over the
run from Point Harbor to Kitty
Hawk with which Captain Ivey
Dowdy of Kitty Hawk had beer
experimenting.
With the opening Of the
Wright Memorial Bridge over
Currituck Sound in 1881, Cap
tain Baum moved his operations
to Croatan Sound, where he be-
gan a regular ferry service be-
tween Manns Harbor and the
north end of Roanoke Island.
In the spring of 1882 he sup
plemented the Crotan Sound
run with a second schedule over
Alligator River from East Lake
to the end Of the sound side
road in Tyrrell County and con-
tinued both of these runs until
his death, December %, 1915.
The Croatan Sound and Alliga-
tor River schedules were main
tanned under the direction of his
widow, Mrs. Annie Baum, until
the ferries were sold to the
State Highway Commission.
In addition to pioneering ferry
service in the coastal area, Cap
tain Baum was also one of the
first to see the potential of the
tourist business on the Dare
Coast, and in 1889 he built the
Wilbur Wright Hotel at Kill
Devil Hills, which is still operat-
ed by his daughter, Mrs. Diane
Baum Voliva.

Highway Commission when the
ferries and rights of operation

boat, and the unloading of the
last car, and now that the last of
Captain Baum's ferry routes
have been bridged-I am con-
fident that every person here
today would want to honor Cap
tain Baum's memory by stand
ing silently for ten seconds.

MR.. EVANS REMARKS:

MR.. EVANS REMARKS:
With the tying up of this fer
ry and the last car leaving it,
you have witnessed a noticeable
event. This was not only the last
ferry the State Highway Com
mission will ever run across ALI
gator River, but also is the last
ferry to run over the routes
pioneered by Captain Thomas
Baum.
Dare County has produced
many able leaders. Certainly one
of those would be Captain Baum.
In the days when these Coastal
Counties were inaccessible here
was a man with courage, wisdom
and vision. He backed his judg-
ment by placing in operation
ferries over Albemarle Sound
(from Point Harbor in Currituck
County to the north end of Roa-
noke Island), over Croatan
Sound (from Roanoke Island to
Manns Harbor), and over Ali
gator River (from the point
where we now stand to the
Sound Side Road in Tyrrell
County,.
May I give you brief facts
on Captain Baum's life and ferry
operation:
Captain Thomas Baum was
born August 10, 1884 in the
Mays Head woods.
In 1926 he began operating
a small converted freight boat

POPULATION
State Department Memo Urged
More Fertility Control Research

this. Virtually all the NH
funds have been used for basic
research, rather than on prof.
ects aimed specifically at de-
veloping birth control tech
niques, the report said.
A detailed examination OF
NH projects for 1866 found
146 that we're more or less rele-
want" to fertility control, of
which &c were rated as dis
tinctly relevant. Those 66 cost
less than one-fifth of l per
cent of the Institutes budget
for the year.
DR.. Albritton reported the
unanimous judgment of the
consultantS that research on
human reproduction and fertil-
ity control was only a fraction
Of what it should be.
His report recommended a
five-year program totaling al
most $50 million for resee rch,
testing and field trials of fam
lily planning techniques, con-
struction and operation of re-
search facilities and training
of scientists.
This crash program" con-
cept has been virtually elimi-
mated in the revision the re-
port has undergone in the
seven months since it was pre-
sented. The latest version, in
formed sources say, does not
put a dollar estimate on the
scope of the proposed program.
Now the report simply tells
interested scientists that NH
will welcome applications for re-
search grants on all aspects of
human reproduction, particu-
larly those relevant to fertility
control.
To stimulate their interest
and indicate possible leads for
new investigation. the report
contains a detailed listing and
analysis of current research
projects, both private and gov
ernment- financed.
Officials point out that re-
search in this area could pro-
duce more than a new or i'm
proved technique of family
planning. Better understand
ing of the physiology of human
reproduction could also give
leads on congenital diseases,
problems of infertility and
other subjects of medical con-
Germ.
The officials are also anxious
to note that the report does
not focus on birth control" in
the narrow sense of that
phrase. Among the topics sin
gled out for more investigation,
informants say, are the "rhy-
thm method" of family PLAN
ming sanctioned by the Roman
Catholic church.
Nonetheless, the political. re-
ligious and moral Sensitivity of
this subject has given the Of
ficials who have seen the re-
port great concern. Weeks and
even months have been con-
sumed in arguments over the
language of the document.
The original plan was to give
the report wide distribution
throughout the scientific COM
munity. Whether, when and
how it will be published are un-
settled questions.
Harvey A. Bush. director of
public information for the De-
partment of Health, Education
and Welfare, told The Star this
week: "As far as l know, the
basic decision has not been
made on whether it will be
published. Parts of it are still

William F. Rickenbacker,
son of Capt. Eddie Ricken-

j. Stewart Hunter, assistant
to the surgeon general for in
formation, added: Il cannot
say what will be done with the
report. 1t is apparent that

Draper Report Stirred Row
Administration officials say
there is mo predispoSition to
bury the report" But they are
anxious to keep it from becom-
ing the center of an angry pub
lie debate that might leopard
ize the steps already taken to
bring this country to grips with
the population explosion"
The officials are also aware
of the political embarrassment
such a controversy might cause
the administration. President
Kennedy was caught up in the
1859 argument over the recon-
mendation by a foreign aid ad-
visory committee, headed by
William H. Draper, jr., that the
United States subsidize, on re-
quest, the population control
programs of foreign countries.
The Draper report was de-
nounced by the American Cath
olic bishops and was rejected
in strong terms by President
Eisenhower. Mr.. Kennedy, then
a candidate for the Democratic
presidential nomination, also
opposed it.
THE United States Govern
ment does not advocate any
policy concerning birth control
here in the United States" Mr..
Kennedy said. Nor have we
ever advocated such a policy
in Western Europe. Accord
ingly, I think it would be the
greatest psychological mistake
for us to appear to advocate
the limitation of the black or
brown or yellow peoples.
They must reach decisions on
these matters based on their
own experience and judgment. 3"
The President repeated this
viewpoint at a press conference
last year. He has insisted from
the time the controversy de-
veloped that he would keep his
personal convictions, as a
Catholic, separate from his
judgments on what the ma
tional interest required in the
way of population policy.
U. S. Interest Grows
The record indicates, as a
matter of fact, that the Ken
nedy administration is paying
far greater heed to the prob
lens of population than did its
predecessor.
Robert Barnett, career for
eign service man named as
special assistant to Undersecre-
tary OF State George Ball last
December, has been making
contacts with private agency
officials and Government Of
fices whose work touches on
population problems.
He also is making known
within the Government the ad-
ministration's desire to focus
attention and interest on this
problem. Exchange of infor-
nation is being encouraged,
notably between American pub
lie health service doctors serv-
ing overseas and their profess
Sional counterparts in the aid
receiving nations.
To meet the need of many
of these nations for more ac-
curate information about their
population trends, there has

Mrs. Arnault says she was

States Ambassador and was de-
ported two days later with her

gestionS, the administration
has:
/. Placed a man on the Un-
dersecretary of States staff to
work with Federal agencies and
private American groups that
do research and field work in
this area.
2. Encouraged the exchange
of information on the popula-
ton problem by spreading the
word through the State De-
partment and the Agency for
International elop ment
that an "off limits" sign for
mer President Eisenhower post
ed on this subject has now been
removed.
3. Provided additional assist
ance. through the Census Bu-
reau and AID experts, to
countries needing factual in
formation on their own popu-
lations.
4. Encouraged other coun-
tries and the United Nations to
expand their technical assist
ance and advice to countries
with population problems.
5. Launched some m o d e S t
public relations steps designed
to inform American citizens of
the scope of the population
problem and the measures that
may be required to meet it.
All these moves, taken with
President Kennedy'S approval,
have carried this Government
closer to a positive policy on
population than it has ever
been before. But because the
administration has drawn the
line at directly aiding overseas
population control measures.
some critics have charged that
its efforts are inadequate.
BY way of reply, Kennedy
administration officials assert
that control techniques used in
this country including the
new oral contraceptive pill -
have not proved suitable or ef-
fective when tried in the un-
derdeveloped lands. Much more
research must be done, they
contend, before there can be
broad-scale population control
measures in the poor nations
of the Southern Hemisphere.
Representatives of such
countries as India and PakiS-
tan, which have government
supported family planning pro-
grams of their own. agree with
this view. The greatest con-
tribution the United States
could make, they say, would be
to put it's unrivaled facilities
to work on fertility control re-
search.
Urge Expanded Research
Reflecting this attitude, the
State Department advisers, in
their secret memo of last June,
urged the National Institutes of
Health to expand its research
in this field as quickly as could
be justified by projects and
personnel to at least $40 mil
lion a year.
Later last summer, NH en-
barked on its own review. DR.
Errett C. Albritton of the NH
staff met with private experts
on research in human repro
duction. In September, he pro-
duced report on their find
ingS.

vate expenditures on human
fertility research at about $5.7

such nations as Sweden and
Japan, which pursue popula-
tion limitation as a domestic
policy. are being encouraged to
help the underdeveloped coun-
tries which have adopted SIM
liar policies.
The United Nations popula-
ton commission. a leading CEN
ter of research, was recently
enlarged with American help
and the United States delega-
ton to the General Assembly
voted last December to place
on the agenda a six-nation
resolution inviting countries
concerned with population
problems to request technical
assistance" from the U. N.
The resolution did not come
to a vote this year. but in
formed sources say the Ameri-
can delegation will support it
when it does.
New Studies Pressed
Meantime, AID armed for the
first time with authority to
conduct a research program, is
beginning to explore some of
the unknown interactions be-
tween population growth and
economic growth. Ways are be-
ing sought by which American
assistance programs can be
used to bring about the social
and economic changes that
would reduce population pres
Sures.
One possibility being dis
cussed is the providing of in
centiveS to raise the marriage
age, now very low in many of
the underdeveloped countries.
One official said:
If we could use our aid pro-
gram to expand educational IA
cilities for young men and de-
velop industries that offer job
opportunities for young women,
the result would be a postpone
ment of marriage for many of
those young people. That, in
turn, would have a greater i'm
mediate effect on the birth
rate than anything that could
be achieved through birt h |
control - and it would do sol
without arouSing any contro-
versy in this country"
While putting some of its
own people to work on these
problems. the State Department
is trying also to develop a eli
mate of public opinion recep-
tive to the steps that officials
think may have to be taken.
AS part of this public rela-
tions program, Mr.. Barnett has
prepared a new form letter for
people who write the depart |
ment about population matters.

States is not prepared to ad-
vocate, much less to impose

off 500. rails off 10 and utili-

Losses of key stocks went
from fractions to 2 or points.
It was the turn of the utili-
ties to receive the brunt of the
selling. Many leaders in this
field took steep losses and
there was no immediate devel-
opment in the news to account
for it.
International Business Ma
chimes, after steadying at the
start, fell 2 dozen points to
another new low of 430 for the
year. 1t plummeted 311a points
yesterday. After reaching the
new low, IBM recovered a few
points.
Some of the other higher
priced or volatile issues took
sharp losses. The ticker tape
ran late on three separate oc-
caSions in the morning.
SteelS. motors and rails re-
sisted the selling onslaught
pretty well, presenting a mixed
picture.
Fear of further sharp de-
cline was the chief reason
given by brokers for the con-
tinued unloading of stocks. AS
pessimism spread, however,
short selling increased. This
is the sale of borrowed stock
in hope that profits can be
made by repaying the stock
through future purchases at
lower prices.
