that the recent dry spell coupied with the high winds had caused fires to get out of con-
trol and burn an estimated twelve to fifteen thousand acres of wooded land in Masonboro
tovmship during last weekend. They estimated that the damage to land values exceeds
$250,000.00. He pointed out that New Hanover County was one of seven or eight counties in ?I
Ithe State which did not participate in the cooperative Forest Fire Controi Program. They ,
had the highest praise for the excellent job done by-the air force and rurai volunteer i
fire departments although they were handicapped by the lack,of equipment for fighting a ;
major fire such as this. The cooperation of the local pulp wood companies is commendable
and the men themselves stayed on the scene until physically exhausted. He suggested

y (NEWS DIRECTOR ASSOCIATION -
The Chairman reported that he had a Memorandum from Ben J MacDonald advising
/ FOREST FIRE CONTROL -
that a letter of thanks be written to all of them. One case was cited
where a known fire was set by a woman cleaning up her yard. Some suggested that care-
less and intenLionally set fires should be investigated and the parties prosecuted to
the fullest extent of the law. If it had not been for the determined efforts of those
dedicated men fightino the fires at least 20 to 30 homes would have been lost. The
Chairman thanked the delegation for bringing this matter before them so forcefully
and stated that now is the time to request the State Department of Conservation and
Development through their division of forestry to articipate in the cooperative fire
control program during the next fiscal year 1963-64. After a.brief discussion, Mr:
Mayhan offered a motion that the Executive Secretary be instructed to write..the Forestry
Division of the State Department of Conservation and ask them to inciude•New Hanover
County in their Budget for the next biennium in order.to participate in the cooperative,
forest fire control program. It was seconded by Mr. Metts and unanimously adopted.
CORONERS SEMINAR - ?I
W. Gordan Doran, our local Coroner, informed the Board that the Institute
of Government is conducting a seminar for coroners and med'ical examiners to be held in
Chapel Hill, May 8th - lOth. He reported that the expenses in connection with this
seminar are nominal but that his main concern has to do with the possibility of the
Deputy Coroner being called into service during his absence. Each time he is called, ?
his minimum fee is $15,00 which the Coroner has been paying out of his own pocket since
using up the $150.00 which was budgeted for that purpose. He reports that he still
has approximately $1,000 in the Autopsy Fund and suogests that sufficient funds might '
be transferred out of that account to pay any additional expenses. After a brief dis-
cussion, Mr. Metts moved that the Coroner be directed to attend the seminar and that ?
any additional expenses which might come up be paid out of an appropriate fund to be
determined at a future meeting. It was seconded by Mr. Mayhan and unanimously carried.
(ROAD PETITION - A petition was received from Glenn M. Tucker of Wilmington Beach Investment
Corporation requesting that Georgia and South Carolina Avenue from U.S. #421 to 7th

? SCHOOL PENSIONS -
Chairman Hall observed that he had been approached by several retired school
teachers who had taught for 35 or 40 years in the public schools in this County at
salaries ranging from $75.00 to $100.00 per month and that the pensions which they are
receiving are pitifully small. It has come to his attention that the State is consid-
ering making additional contributions toward this cause and the Chairman offered a
suggestion that the matter be considered by this Board. County Auditor T. D. Love
stated that the amount of the pensions is determined by di?tUaries in New York and that
after the State pays its share of the pensiori, the County then makes*the difference be-
tiaeen the amount paid by the State and the total amount set by t}ie actuary as ,just and
proper compensation. After briefly discussing the problem, it was decided by common
consent tfiat the Chairman should ask a member of the Board of Education to explain
the entire pension set up and supply each Commissioner with a prepared statement so
that he would be in a position to ask intelligant questions and make comparative studie:
?of the systems of other counties.
ELECTION COSTS - •
Mr. Henry C. Bost, Chairman of the New Hanover County Board of Elections,
was recognized and stated that the cost to the taxpayers for good, honest and legaily
conducted elections in New Hanover County compares favorably with other counties re-
gardiess to any other reports to the contrary. He recommend`ed that very earnest
consideration be given to setting up a permanent registration system with a full time
Board of Elections office located in the Court House, He estimated the initial cost
of setting u this system would approximate $10,000 and that the operating cost should
not exceed $4,800. He pointed out that this would save considerable money as it
would reduce the time given to elections of the whole board. He is of the opinion
that.as the City participates in the use of the election equipment such as booths and
bailot boxes and would profit and benefit from the modernization they should pay at
least one-third of the cost. He reminded the Board that New Hanover County operates

recommendation for the use of voting machines for New Hanover County-but that he now
strongly urges'the Board to consider the purchase of voting machines stating that they
would pay for themselves in not more than 10 years. He eliminated himself or his com-
pany from bidding on any voting machines but suggested that they study the two machines
which are approved for use in North Carolina; the Rockwell Nanufacturing Company of James-
town, New York or the Shoup Voting Machine Corporation, Nashville, Tennessee. The Chair-
I,man thanked Mr. Bost for his time and information and suggested that the matter be placed
„on the Agenda at a lat,er date for their consideration.

Mr. Henry C.-Bost, ChBirman of the New Hanover County Board of Elections; was ?
recogni2ed and stated that the cost to the taxpayers for good, honest and legally conducted
elections in New Hanover County compares favorably with other counties regardless to any
other reports to the contrary. He recommended that very earnest consideration be given.
to setting up a permanent registratibn system with a full time Board of Elections office
located in the Court House. He estimated the initial cost of setting.u this system

ed out that this would save considerable money as it would reduce the time given to elect-
ions of the whole board. He is of the opinion that as the City participates in the use
of the election equipment such as booths and.ballot boxes and would profit and benefit
from the modernization they should pay at least one-third of the cost. He reminded the
Board that New Hanover County operates under a Special Act of the Legisiature permitting
a day's pay for each eight hours or a fractlon thereof. He remarked that never before
had he ever made a strong recommendation for the use of voting machines for New Hanover
County but that he now strongly urges the Board to consider the purchase of voting machines

seif or his company from bidding on any voting machines but suggested that they study the
two machines which are approved for use in North Carolina; the Rockwell Manufacturing
Company of Jamestown, N. Y or the Shoup Voting Machine Corporation, Nashville, T¢nessee.
The Chairman thanked Mr. Bost for his time and information and suggested that the matter
be placed on the Aoenda at a later date for further consideration.
MICROFILNING -
Mr. Edward L. Grvehn, Field Representative for Hall and McChesney, Incorporated ?
of Greensboro, North Carolina stated that he had recently conferred with Miss Ada Louise ,
McCulioch, the Register of Deeds, and N. Foster Edwards, Clerk of Superior Court, about
using microfiim for'recording documents in their respective offices. He stated that the
Recordak System is adaptable to the requirements to each office and at the'same time in-
expensive. The total cost of the installation of this equipment for a 35 milometer film
would amount to $3,500. He presented each of the Commissioners with a detailed brochure
outlining the specifications and suggested procedures of the operation. He is willing
I to place one of the machines in operttion as a demonstrator for a period of from 60 - 90
I days in order to allow t'he employees and attorneys to*become accustomed to its use and
'I make a fair, sound ,judgement. Mr. Nletts questioned Mr. Grueha about the fairness of
? aliowing him to demonstrate his equipment and then the Commissioners possibly not buy it
I or buy a competitive machine. Mr. Gruehn stated that was one of the hazards of the
business and that they would not consider it an unfair advantage if they purchased another
machine. During the above presentation, the following representatives of the Bar Associa-
tion were presenL: Messrs. J. D. Carr, Allen W. Cobb, Royce S. McClelland and James
» B. Swails. After discussing the matter, it was decided that they would continue to study
the problem and make a decision not later than Budget setting time.

October, 1962 for an accounting machine. He stated that the need for this equipment ,
has not lessened since that time Hut is continually growing more acute and if the tax i
records were gotten out on time, it would be necessary to replace the oldest accounting
machine now in use. He introduced representatives of the National Cash Register Company
who manufactures the only machine with the specifications meeting the requirements. They
reported that at the present time, they could allow a trade-in of $1200.00 for the old
machine but that after April 22nd, this offer would expire and be reduced to $100.00 un-
less his company is willing to extend the time. The County Attorney ruled that if any
of the specifications were changed since the date that they were advertised in 1962, they
wou2d have to be readvertised to meet the legal requirements. Mr. Metts then offered a
motion that new specifications for Lhe accounting machine be readvertised with such
clauses as the County Attorney may sugoest to meet the legal requirements, to include the
amount allowable for the trade-in for the old piece of equipment and with the stipulation ,
that any or ali bids could be re,jected or accepted as the Commissioners considered for
the best interest of the County. It was seconded by Mr. Mayhan and unanimovsly approved.
JAIR CONDITIONING - HEALTH BUILDING
Chairman Hall remarked that the Consolidated Board of Health had unanimously
approved a request for air conditioning the Health Building this summer. They have secur?ed
informal bids which range from $3800.00 to $4500.00 and he'hoped to have the blessings of
this Board so that they could go ahead with the installations. 5ome Commissioners thouo't
that it was an item that should be discussed during the Budget consideraLion. The County
Attorney ruled that spending that amount of money in one contract would require publlc
advertising. While no formal action was taken on the matter, the Chairman sugaested that?
bids be publicly advertised for and presented to the Board for their cons3deration at the I
earliest possible date. '
`REPAIR BILL - BULLDOZER '
The Chairman stated that the bulldozer belonging to the Health Department
had been loaned to Wrightsville Beach for use in pushing up some of the sand dunes destroy-
ed by the storm last November. 'rVhile in the3r possession, it broke dot:m and it was
necessary to employ a heavy duty commercial equipment company to drag it out of the surf
before hioh tide. The total repair bill amounts to $600.00 which the Wrightsville Beach
Town Board requests the County to pay. After d.iscussing the matter, Mr. Metts offered
a motion that the County pay $250.00 on the repair bill. It was seconded by Mr. Mayhan
and unanimously adopted.

The Chairman reported that the University of North Carolina has some portable
grandstands in sections which will seat 500 people or more at the price of $3,50.per seat.
H¢".suggested that consideration be given to the purchase of a section for use at Hugh
MacRae Park or other public functions of the County. By unanimous common consent,
the Board referred this matter to the Chairman to see if he could work out an acceptable
agreement with any agencies which might use them such as the New Hanover Saddle Club at
their Horse Shows held at the Hugh MacRae Park Riding Rink.
?ANERICAN SHORE AND BEACH PRESERUATION ASSOCIATION -
The Chairman reminded the Board that the annual meeting of the American Shore I
and Beach Preservation Association is scheduled to meet in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

sented at that meeting. Mr. Metts then offered a motion that the Board approve the
attendance of any 3 members that might be able to go and that their expenses be authorized,
It was seconded by Mr. Mayhan and unanimously agreed. `
