Fertilizer Plant Plans Spark River and Water Source Reclassifications
The plan to build a fertilizer facility and dyeing plant near Riverton prompts review of the Lumber River swimming area. Streams near Butner and Cullowhee will be reclassified as water sources for John Umstead Hospital and Western Carolina College. A Texas Gulf Sulphur project seeks to fill a 100 acre Pamlico River area, drawing wildlife concerns and an expected vote by the state committee. A September public hearing is planned, with city curfew measures in effect after a street dance incident.

Former Employee Testifies On Union Breaks at Stevens
Roanoke Rapids North Carolina AP A former Stevens textile employee testified at an NLRB hearing that the firm clamped down on smoking breaks after a union organizing drive began. Reginald Nicholson the first of about 80 discharged during the campaign testified he was warned and then fired for taking extra breaks after joining union activities. Two other service boys in the fabricating division Andy Bell and Leroy Casey also testified about their dismissals. The plant superintendent Mason C Lee gave Stevens reasons for the terminations. The union says the firings were due to union activity. About 60 employees were discharged across Stevens plants in North and South Carolina as hearings continue.
