12-December-Mocksville EnterpriseVOLUME XXVIII “АИ The County New* For Eveiybodjr** MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1944 "AU The County News For Everybody”NO. 9 SHOWSMEANSOFSTAMPINGOUT COUNTERFEIT GAS COUPONS HERE Counterfeit gasoline coupons have recently appeared in Davie county, beginning in Cooleemee, and D. R. Stroud, clerk of tlie local board, urges the following precautions to protect every­ body: 1. For the individual who buys gasoline: Present your gas coupons In the folder to your gas dealer at the time you drive up for gas. Such action will be ap­ preciated by the dealer who may feel reluctant in making such a request because of possible of­ fense to the customer. 2. For the gasoline dealer; Have the filling station attend­ ant to check the gas coupons of the customer before putting gas in the tank. If the dealer will compare the number on the cou­ pons with the folder and with the license number of the car, there will be little or no counter­ feit coupons accepted by the dealer, Mr. Stroud asserts. OUTLINES STATE PROGRAM TO MEET NEEDS OF BEHER MEDICAL CARE Dr. Reynolds, who is the No. 1 authority on health matters in our state, has shown us that North Carolina ranks 45th among all the states in number of doctors, 42nd in number of hospitals, 41st in maternal and 39th in Infant dettths, and 48th, or the very bottom, in draft re­ jections In the army camps. The needs are plain—more doctors, more hospitals, more insurance—and here are the six main remedies which the gover­ nor’s commission is recommend­ ing to the people and to the 1945 general assembly to meet the,se I needs: 1. To set up a state appro­ priation of $5,000,000 to help the •counties and communities to build new hospitals (or to en­ large existing hospitals) and health centers of the publicly- owned or non-profit type, wher­ ever and whenever needed. This contemplates a small number of district hospitals of approxi­ mately 100 beds and a much larger number of small county or rural hospitals and rural health centers—each under the administrative and professional control of its own locally- elected board of trustees. (In no case will a grant by the state exceed SO per cent of ihe total coat o( hospital construction.) 2. To expand the present two- year medlca). school at the Uni­ versity of^Morth Carolina into a dtandarjf four>year school with a oeiifoal hospital of eoo beds. T i \ ^ would serve Jointly to pro- i'Vide the state another needed medical center and to train more doctors, particularly for the rural areas. 3. To set up a state loan fund for medical student.s with extra aid for those who agree to prac­ tice medicine at least four years in rural areas. 4. To cooperate with adjoin­ ing states in establishing a re­ gional medical school for Ne­ groes. 5. To appropriate $500,000 in state funds annually to be used In paying $1 per day toward the rare of each charity patient in any hospital In the state, this amount to be supplemented by similar grants from cities, coun­ ties and probably private sources like the Dhke endowment. 6. To encourage the develop­ ment of group medical insurance plans which will enable the peo­ ple to repay the costs of exten­ sive Illness requiring treatment by specialists and extended hos­ pitalization. "The family that can pay for its own hospital and medical care will do so,” It Is empha­ sized in the commission’s recom­ mendations. “Yet the burden on even these families should be eased through health-and- hospital insurance. "The family that can partly pay its way, will pay this part (likewise helped by Insurance to the fullest possible degree); gov­ ernment and philanthropic aid being provided for the re­ mainder. “The family that poverty, ill­ ness or other misfortune has left honestly incapable of pay­ ing anything for its light against disease will nevertheless be help­ ed to an equal chance with the rest of us in its same grim bat­ tle against ever-menacing death which we must all make and see our loved ones make sooner or later." The proposed plan thus is not only a program for the indigent, worthy as that may be. It also provides more and better doctors (continued on page 8) United War Fund $1,500 Behind The United War Fund In Davie Is still $1,500 short of its goal, E. C. Morris, chairman, announces.

DAVIE FLIER SENDS SAMPLE OF JAP PROPAGANDA LEAFLET SHOWS JAP REACTION First Lieut. Joe Forrest Stroud, son of Mr. and Mrs. D. R. Stroud, of Mocksville, is having a lot of fun strafing and dive bombing the Japs in a P-47 Thunderbolt, according to a letter received November 27. He also enclosed a copy of a propaganda leaflet which the Japs dropped from a floater planet one night which shows the line'taken in an effort to Influence American flghtlng boys. Joe has been In the iHwiflo area for 33 nontbs and ten months of this tbne he flew .......'f.:’.' iST LT JOE F. SntOVD four-engine transports, winning the Air Medal for numerous flights over enemy territory. Upon his request he was trans­ ferred to the 47th Fighter Squadron and served there for several months as test pilot. Wanting more action, he asked for transfer to the 19th Fighter Squadron. Since being a mem­ ber of this outfit he has over 2,000 hours In the air and some 25 missions. He has been award­ ed two Oak Leaf Clusters to add to his Air Medal. He writes that he has enjoyed every minute that he has been in thé air. Headed “Poor, reckless Yank* ee-Doodle," th e propaganda leaflet Is quoted as foUows; “Do you know about Oie naval battle wone by American tSth Fleet at the sea near Taiwan (Tomosa) 9nd philippine.

The Third Army Is within artillery range of Saar­ brücken, The First and Ninth Arimes are some 23 to 27 miles from Cologne where thé fighting is from house to house. The French First Army has closed the gap in the lines between Belfort and Mulhouse, The U. S. Seventh made some advances on Haguenau above Strasbourg. O n the eastern front the Red army has overrun more communities in eastern Slovakia and in northern. Hungary the Nazis have been cleared from the right bank of the Tisza river, open new offensive west of Danulie. T Ò K Y O B O M B E D Tokyo has been bombed twice by the super-forts and no place in Japan is too far to be reached. Methodical de­ struction of Japanese war industries has begun and the bombing tempo will rise with each passing month. G E R M A N PRISON ERS Allied armies on the western front have captured 73(),- 749 German prisoners since D-day, the equivalent of 73 di­ visions. STETTINIUS N A M E D Edv/ard F. Stettinius, Jr., was promoted from under­ secretary to Secretary of State to succeed Cordell Hull, who resigned because of ill health. He is expected to continue Hull policies. V IC TO R Y P L E D G E O F AN AM ERICAN I am an American. I and my sons have a big stake in victory. While my sons are fighting for freedom, I will work hard here at home that food and weapons in abund­ ance will ever fight on the side of America. I will do my part to keep our country financially and economically strong. All income from my work, above the need for necessary expenses, will be invested in war bonds to buy the equipment that my sons—the sons of all Ameri­ cans— will use to speed the victory. In making this invest­ ment in victory, I am also laying up the financial reserve for peace and against the day when my sons will come marching home. When that happy day comes I and my sons will build a better and stronger America in a world where liberty and justice have been made safe for all. M y thinking— my money— my time will stay in this war until the finish. H O M E LOAN S T O VETERAN S SPEED ED American communities have a stake in the fact that the federal housing administration has acted to speed the making of insured home loans to veterans by private insti­ tutions under the terms of the G I Bill of Rights, The F H A is now accepting at its fleld offices from private lending agencies applications for the insurance of principal loans supplemented by loans under Section 505 of the O I bill. These are cases where the veterans administration guaran­ tees an equity loan not to exceed $2,000, and where the principal loan, which must comply with FH A regulations, is insured by FHA. The federal agency seeks all possible protection of veterans in what may be the most important single financial transaction in their life. VITAL WAR ROLE Pfc, Benjamin F.

McCLELLAN Considerable terracing h a s been done this month by Davle county larmers. Pink Hendrix and Eugene Fos­ ter near Redland built some good terraces recently with a farm tractor and plow. This Is the first terracing done In the Red­ land community. Most of the flelds In that locality would be helped by terracing. S. Clyde Hutchins near Hol­ man’s Crossroads put some lime and phosphate on a portion of his pasture last sprjng. He found the cows preferred stay­ ing on thp treated part of his pasture. There Is a reason for this as the grazing has more food value and wlll produce more milk and growth. John Ferebee near Calahaln built some terraces for Z. N. An­ derson recently. He built 3,400 running feet in about 11 hours time. BAILEY'S CHAPEL Mr. and Mrs. Sam Hege and children , spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Pete Markland.

Hospital and Medical Care W hen the general assembly m ^ts at Raleigh in Janu­ ary one of the most important things they will have to consider is the proposed state-wide program of hospital and medical care by a commission appointed in February, 1944, by Governor Broughton to draw up a plan. This com- znlssion has made its recommendations and we heartily endorse the plan for one reason, if for no other: It is a pían that will reach small towns and rural areas of the state where hospitalization and medical care are most badly needed. As stated, “the ultimate purpose of this program should be that no person in North Carolina shall lack ade­ quate hospital care or medical treatment by reason of pov­ erty or low income.” * The plan, which has the endorsement of the N. C. Medical Society, has three broad objectives: 1. More doc­ tors through a four-year medical school at the University of North Carolina with a central hospital of 600 beds. 2. More hospitals and health centers with emphasis on a large number of county or rural hospitals of 60 beds; dis­ trict hospitals with 100 beds; health centers for small rural communities with a small number of beds to provide facili­ ties foi minor operations, dental services, obstetrical serv­ ice, simple diagnostic and laboratory services. 3. Oroup hospital insurance. The state would support the medical school and pro­ vide $5,000,000, or a third of the entire cost, to help coun­ ties and communities to build and enlarge hospitals and health centers. The need of a hospital; better medical facilities, and more doctors in Davie county Is obvious to every one. In our opinion, it ranks as T H E N U M B E R O N E N E E D after the war. W e see no way that they can be secured except by some such plan as evolved by the Governor’s Commis­ sion. In any event, it will take time for the program to reach fruition but we know of nothing for which the peo­ ple would rather pay taxes than to be relieved of the fear of not being able to pay for adequate hospital and medical care when they or members of their family are sick. Tells of Care Of Wounded " “ Dear Editor: You have asked me to write of some experiences I have had In my army life while serving In North Africa, England and Italy. Since I am with the medical corps I have been working In a station hospital in Italy tor the past two months. I can’t really say 1 have seen plenty ot ac­ tion. But I am with those boys who have seen action and were wounded. I believe I can say the boys get the best of care. The doc­ tors and nurses pass through the hospitals twice a day and we are there night and day with them. We work on night and day shifts. I would like to say to mothers and wives who have .sons and husbands in service who have been wounded that we are there to care for them, to try to give them motherly care or to do anything to satisfy their wants. The army has some ot the best doctors to be had. Those wounded boys keep in good heart of recovering from wounds, and faith goes a long way. - So let us here In civilian life do likewise, liope the war will soon be over and we can all be at home again. ' I have recently spent a tew days with my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eufus Beck, on Route 2, before returning to Charleston, S. C. Yours truly, Pfc, Harry T. Beck. COOLEEMEE Mr. and Mrs. A. W.

Hitler supposedly Is staying in a huge castle at Klesshelm, about seven miles from his usual mountain retreat, while new for­ tifications are completed in the Salzburg-Berchtesgaden area. It was there that the brain spe­ cialist—Identified by rumor only as Professor Horster—was re­ ported to have examined him. This story, obviously unau- thofltative but distributed on London’s European grapevine a4 “hot” information, at least had the reliable background of Hit­ ler’s almost complete retire­ ment from the public eye and ear since the bombing attempt on his life last July 20. Oerman citizens haven’t seen or heard from their fuherer since a voice, supposedly his, made a broadcast during the early hours of the morning foUowlng the bombing.

Day after day, ^ he sorted letters, his thoughts had turned to the poor children of his country suffering from tuberculosis. One day, In the midst of the Christmas rush of mall, it occurred to him that stamps could be used in allevi­ ating the suffering of the sick. He obtained permission from the klTii of Denmark for the sale of a stamp which had no value in conveying a letter but was of In­ finite value m saving lives. Thus, In the winter of 1904, Binar Hol- boell, the Danish postal clerk, put on sale the flrst Christmas Seal. That same year an or­ ganization had been formed In the United States called the National Tuberculosis associa­ tion. The purpose of tJils or­ ganization was fundamentally the same as Holboell’s—to com­ bat the White Plague. They adopted the Danish postal clerk’s Idu '. of the «e«I m « meant ot flnanelng thla wo№: 'T6<i«y'the North Carolina Tubereutoiil« as­ sociation Is only one among the many affiliates of the National Tuberculosis association which sells Christmas Seals for health’s sake. This year the NTA, wishing to honor the great postal systems, ^ chosen for the symbol on IM seal a postman. This is the more appropriate because It was a postal employe who flrst thought of the Christmas Seal. Behind this symbol lies the whole story of communication, from the tomtoms and signal flres of primitive man, the runners of early days, the stage coach, to the ocean liner, airplane, tele­ phone, telegraph and radio of today. Since the NTA was organized in 1904, the death rate from tu- ttereulosli has ¿een eat 78 par deht. Yet It ttiu tai№i a nfejlil every nine minutes and more Americans between the ages of 15 and 48 than any other diseases. In North Carolina alone it killed over 14S0 people la«t year. Undoubtedly progress In the control of the'disease haa been made; In fact, It might be said that the forces of tuberouloals control have landed on the en­ emy’s shore but that doesn't mean the flght is about over. To the contrary, everyone muat flght harder and more relent­ lessly-joining In this "all-out" flght by buying the seals that save lives. Maize Is proving an excellent feed crop In some areas of east­ ern Carolina. Yields of SO bush­ els per acre have been reported. ANNOUNCEMENT DR. T.

GRANT Register of Deeds CHARLES R. VOGLER Commissioner DONALD REAVIS Commissioner ii ii p R. P. MARTIN Commissioner This week’s war news was somber, as Indicated |>y two events: One was that the correspondents on the western front were allowed to send dispatches back to this country stating that a winter campaign against the Germans seems inevitable and that American losses are expected to be the heaviest of the war. The second was a home front statement by Lieut. Gen. Somervell, head of the army service forces, who said that for* the flrst time munitions are being used up faster than they are produced; called for 300,000 more war workers at once; asserted the war in Europe may not yet have reached its peak and that we are not yet all-out against Japan. Meanwhile the Germans claim that American casual-, ties on the western front for the last three weeks have been 170,000. It is now evident that the Germans intend to flght to the death west of the Rhine to protect the heart of the reich. During tue week allied troops sluged away at the Sieg­ fried line. Front reports assert that the Allies have knock* ed out 180,000 German troops ih the first three weeks of the winter offensive and the Nazis have been unable to halt either the Third Army push to or beyond the Saar or the Third and Seventh Army drives northward between Saar* brucken and the Lauterbourg corner of the Rhine. The Russians have crossed the west bank of the D an­ ube Vrom the 30-mile-long Csepel Island south of Budapest and this Hungarian capital is already beseiged from the east. D O M E S T IC N E W S The U. S. state department has been streamlined with the appointment of three new men as assistant secretaries, placing emphasis on the economic problems which face this country for the next few years. Congress passed the pension bill for families of de­ ceased World W ar I veterans. Eligible childless widows will get $35 monthly, $45 with one child and $5 for each addi­ tional child. To be eligible, a childless widow's income must be less than $1,000 yearly and less than $2,500 if chil­ dren. The widow must also have been married to the vet­ eran for ten continuous years before his death to be eligible. MORE DAVIE BOYS ARE INDUCTED AND MORE TAKE PHYSICAL EXAM CHARLES F.

W. lyicCLELLAN Wlllle Reeves near Sheftleld is doing commendable work In try­ ing to hold and improve two hilly farms he rents. Mr. Reeves has done considerable terracing, applying lime sowing legumes Including sweet clover. About four years ago, Mr. Reeves plant­ ed some kudzu on some hilly de­ pleted land. This last summer when pastures were dried up this kudzu was a Godsend to his cows. The milk increased con­ siderably in a short time. Mr. Reeves plans to dig some crowns from this field and plant some more unprofitable land to kudzu. Bill Smoot near Sheffield had some profitable grazing from kudzu last summer too. J. N. Smoot, father of Bill Smoot, questioned the possibil­ ity of getting finy thing to grow on the field where the kudzu was planted In 1942. He thought the land almost too poor to grow anything. There is at least 2,000 acres in Davie county that would be bet­ ter off In kudzu than In un­ profitable crops. More tobacco growers than ever before are treating their tobacco beds with chemicals to save labor in weeding the beds next spring. Wilson county re­ ports 494,000 square y a r d s treated.

The Finish Drive Our armies are engaged in the final phases of the I!im)pean war. How long it will take nd one knows, but it is safe to say that it is the beginning of the final drive to crush the Nazis. A great offensive has been started, and at the moment it is going well. General Elsenhour calls for all-uut tiffort on the part of everybody, and that in­ cludes the W ar Bond Sale, which is now on. While our boys are digging in and forging ahead in Europe, we folks back home must shell out wherewithal to keep them amply supplied. Thia time it is a matter which cannot be delayed. Victory now means every effort now. "Buy Another War Bond, and Hold O n To Those You Have." A Study In Contrast South Carolina's pride in the Hon. James Byrnes, la somewhat hurt in— let us say, the pathos, surrounding the passing of Senator "Cotton Ed” Smith. Senator Smith had rendered distin^ished service to state and nation, and there are many who will mourn his passing, even though saddened by some of later dispositions and actions. He let his personal feelings betray him. He held some beliefs, feelings, and attitudes which did not fit into the world in which he spent his latter days, and he was not big ehbUgh to changé, and grow up along with the nation and, the South. For, the South has, very decidedly, left behind it many of the attitudes and the spirit tb‘ which Senator Smith clung. His passing, and the manner of it, is a symbol of a dead past, and prophetic of a new future. .Both Christianity and Democracy are expanding more rapidly than extreme reactionaries can assimulate. In the nature of things they must be left behind. W e wish that there could have been a happier ending to the career of a m an who has in the past times rendered great service to his state.

COLEEMEK PROGRAM . Cooleemee Post No. 54 of the American Legion announces a most interesting program of music and fun at the high school auditorium Wednesday evening, December 13, at 8 o’clock. The program is tree to the public, and everybody Is invited. The program will be put on by the 225th .Army Ground Forces band. Camp Butner headquarters has promised that both the dance orchestra and the concert band, with Warrant Officer Cauncey V. Kelly wielding the baton, ■will render their finest prograin. The appearance Is to promote the sale of war bonds in the Sixth War Loan. The dance orchestra will, ^play some popular numbers such as; "When Johnny Comes March­ ing Home.” “Sweet and Lovely.” "On the Sunny Side of the Street.” "My Blue Heaven.” The concert band will render: "My Hero." "Stars and Stripes Forever.” "Finlandia,” Sgt. Nick Barlle will sing; "Oh, Johnny.” "I Said No," "I Don’t Want to lave You." "I’ll Walk Alone.” Col. Herbert M. Poole, com­ manding oftlcer, sponsoring the show, also promises plenty of fun. “The German Soldier” skit, "The Doctor" skit, and *'The Russian Refugee’’ skit will be presented by actors that f'un- lovers cannot afford to miss. A piano, trumpet and vocal soloist will add variety to the program. The local Legion post will en­ tertain the Camp Butner boys at a supper in Cooleemee Wed­ nesday evening before the pro­ gram starts. The Cooleemee Legionnaires aro enthusiastic over the oppor­ tunity to sponsor this kind of entertainment for our town, and they are hopeful that a big crowd will be on hand to greet the Camp Butner boys and en­ joy their entertainment. W. H. Neal, vice president of the Wachovia Bank and Trust company, will direct the sale of war bonds during the evening. EPHESUS NEWS Mr. and Mrs. B. B.

Vesper Mrvlces were held at this church iast winter and were at­ tended by more people than were the evening services In former years. This will enable the people to attend the second service and go home and spend the evening at home. Also It will make It unnecessary to keep the church building heated for such a long time In these war times when fuel Is scarce. Lieut. Qeorge J.

By CLARENCE POE (Chairman, State Commission on Hospital and Medical Care) Our first article outlined North Carolina’s pressing needs for more and better hospital and medical care while the second summarized the six main reme­ dies which the state commission of leading doctors and laymen Is recommending to the people and to the coming general as­ sembly. The preceding articles revealed some appalling statistics about North Carolina’s rank among the states In various health matters —45th tn number of doctors, 42d In number of hospitals, 41st In maternal and 39th , In Infant deaths, and 48th or the very bot­ tom In draft rejections for phy­ sical reasons Now let’s look at the other side—the human side—which Is always the flrst consideration when you or one of your loved ones are 111. Let’s consider a few q^ses of the sick-and-needy, whether It waa for want of money, facilities, care or what not, and then try to put our­ selves in their places.' Standing In the burying ground on the old home farm where I was reared, a cousin pointed to the grave of a flne woman who had died of child­ birth complications and said to I do if I get seasick?” Captain; "Don’t worry, you’ll do it.” Belgium, occupying an area of 11,800 square miles, Is about the size of Maryland.

Judge; "Well, just do what you can of It.” Customer; "And you have the nerve to ask two dollars a bot­ tle for this nerve tonic?” Chemist; "Yes, sir. It shows what the stuff will do. I take It regularly.” Voyager; "Captain, what shall Greensboro with relatives, Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Daniel spent Sunday afternoon In Spen­ cer as the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Eller. Mrs. Nora Parker has been confined to her home for the past few days with a severe cold. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Spry have been notified by the war depart­ ment that their son Jim has been slightly wounded. Sue Veach has been sick for the past few days. C. R. Wilson, who holds a po­ sition with' Firestone rubber plant in Winston-Salem visited his family here Sunday after­ noon. Promoted Sgt. Lawrence A. Cook, son ot Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Cook, of Route 1, who is with Pat­ ton's Third Army in Germany, was recently promoted'to ser­ geant. He entered service In May, 1943, and has been over­ seas since November of that year. He spent nine months In North Ireland, going from there to France, He was wounded somewhere in France last September 28, recently re­ turning to his company, and his wife, the former Miss Mil­ dred Shumaker, has been no­ tified that the Purple Heart Is being sent her. J. F- Ridenhour Passes at His Home John F. Rldenhour, 72, died at noon Sunday at his home, Mocksville, Route 4. Mr. Riden­ hour was the son of the late Monroe and Clara Creason Rld­ enhour. Surviving are his widow, the former Miss Louise Foster; three sons, C. F. Rldenhour of Coolee­ mee, Baxter and Lester Rlden­ hour, both of Burlington: five daughters, Mrs. Allen Hellard and Mrs. Ethel Tiller, both ot Cooleemee, Mrs. Dora Deadmon of Mocksville, Route 4, Mrs. Sadie Steele of Salisbury, and Mrs. Thelma Ritchie of Roanoke, Va.; also surviving are four brothers, Richard Rldenhour of Roanoke. Va., Jess Ridenhour of Salisbury, and Henry and George Rlden hour both of Advance, Route 1, and two sisters, Mrs. Lizzie Hel­ lard and Mrs. J. M, Bivins, both ot Cooleemee, Twenty-nine grandchildren and nine great grandchildren also survive. Funeral services were held at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning at Cooleemee Methodist church, with rites in charge of the Rev. H. C. Freeman, assisted by the Rev! G. W. Fink. Burial was in Liberty Methodist church ceme­ tery. RETURNS FROM OVERSEAS Sgt. J. Vergil House, son of Mr, and Mrs. J. D. House, has ar­ rived from overseas, where he spent the past ten months. He .suffered, a broken ankle on Au­ gust 20 in an air raid In France, from which he has not fully re­ covered. He will undergo treat­ ment at Walter Reed General hospital, Washington, D. C. me; "Her doctor told me he could have saved her life If he had been called In time. But she and her husband were poor and, not wanting to make a doctor’s bill they couldn’t pay soon, wait­ ed too late!” Starting home from my office recently, a man going blind ask­ ed me to read the bus sign for him. "I am going to see an oculist for serious eye-trouble he says might have been easily checked when It started a few years ago,” he said, “But I had a family who needed every cent made—and 1 put It off too long.” Sometime ago a renter moved on my farm I found he had had two bad attacks of appendi­ citis but waa risking a third at­ tack (which might have been fatal) because he had not had money enough for an operation, A member of our 193S general assembly recently said to me: "I had a sick Negro on one of my farms and found out it would cost $17* to get a doctor's visit for him—$3 for the visit and 50 cents a mil« each way for the 14 miles the doctor would have to travel.” This Is, of course, an extreme example; but a doctor’s visit on my old home farm would cost $10 now. Such aré four revealing inci­ dents from my own experience, and almost every reader familiar with life among the masses of our people can add hla own Il­ lustrations In ternis of poignant tragedy and illness. The broad plan proposed for our state would be a Ood-send to these slck-and-needy, but there Is abundant évidence that better hospital and medical care ii needed by the great masses of ptir . people and not our lowest economic group alone. In a recent survey of the same problem by “Fortune" m'ágaalne. It was declared that 00 per cent of the American people feel un­ able to pay the whole bill for all they need In the way of medical- care In a normal year like 1935- 3«. Our slx-poInt program, which was outlined In last week's ar­ ticle, would be of tremendons service and beneflt to this great middle class, which Is the foun­ dation of our state, and even to thè wealthy. It U a program. In short, for all the people of the state. There are a hundre(d ways you can do it—buy bonds to the limit—help save pa­ per—use food scraps—garden and can— write the boys—make your job important to winning the war! At least that’s the way my fellow em­ ployees and I feel about it. You see, over 1200 of us have gone into the armed serv­ ices and we want them home again as soon as possible.

If stocks pile up in fertilizer plants and agents' ware- , houses, the stream of supply wilt choke up. They must move fast or the lack of man*power will cause a para­ lyzing shortage. Take the Chilean Nitrate situation for example. To ■upply the quantity needed for 1945 crops, many car­ goes must be unloaded each month at each port, then moved out by train and truck for immediate allocation. It roust move out of agents’ hands as fast as it moves In. If not, the choke-up starts and works back to the ports, even back to the ships. ' Already there’s a threatened shortage of nitrogen, due to sharply increased war needs. Unless you help smash the bottle-neck by taking your nitrate as soon M it ia offered, the shortage will become acute. Thous­ ands of tons vtrill pile up at U.S. ports or on the docks in Chile.

C., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1944 "All The County News For Everybody *NO. 11 ENUMERATORS WANTED TO TAKE FARM CENSUS BEGINNING JAN. 8 Hayn« Baucom, supervisor of this district of the farm census, Bureau 9f Census, with head­ quarters at Monroe, wants at least 16 enumerators to take the farm census In Davie county which begins January 8, 1944. Enumerators will get three days training and be paid $3 a day during the course. Those who wish to apply are to write to Mr. Baucom at '"iitonroe and get application blanks. Details of the farm census are shown below for the Informa­ tion of the farmers of this sec­ tion: ' The agrlcultUTal resources and production of the United States at war will be measured with the taking of the coming census of agriculture, scheduled to begin th« first week in January, 1946. Basic information on agricul­ ture, including statistics on farm acreage, crops, livestock, farm labor and other Items re­ lated to farm operations will be obtained. Ofllcials of the bureau of the ceitsus. United States depart­ ment of commerce; the bureau of agricultural economics, United States department of agricul­ ture; the war food administra­ tion, representatives of farm as- sociations, cjnd agricultural ecoc- omists and statisticians worked Jointly toward developing a simple yet comprehensive farm and ranch schedule for the cen­ sus. Months of preparation pre­ ceded the completion -of the schedules' and the final selection of the questions to be asked. MANY ANGLES The flrst questions, to be asked by the enumerator will be con­ cerned with identifying informa­ tion for each fàrm household— the name/'of the farm operator, his race and age, location of the farm, the number of dwelling units on the farmstead and their facilities, such as running water and electricity, and the number of persons residing on thè farm­ stead. An economic evaluation of the nation’s farm properties will be obtained through questions on the status of the farm operator, that is, paid manager, owner, or tenant; the value of owned land and buildings, as well as those rented; the amount of any mort­ gage debt; and the value of farm machinery. Information on the utilization of land resources'will be obtained by requesting figures on the acreage of each farm, the total being subdivided by acre- (contlnued on page 4) lOW STATE MEDICAL CARE PLAN TOAID LOCAL UNIT AND PEOPLE So fat our discussion about this great program for more and better hospital and medical care has been on a general and a state-wide basis. Now let's get down to case right here at home and se'b what this program will mean to oui* own community and people, and especially to you and to me. As you read In the Initial ar­ ticle, the minimum approved standard is one doctor for each 1,000 people. This county has one doctor for each 4,162, Again, the accepted requirement is four hospital beds per 1,000 people. The flgure for this county Is ex­ actly none. Yes, our .county as a whole is below thé minimum requirement Ijpth doctors and hospitals, J ^ 't h e situation Is even worse among the people who live in the outlying areas away from the towns—and doctors. So much for the general sit­ uation. Now let’s look at your case and mine. A majority of our readers, we dare say, are able to pay for any normal medical care they or their families might need. However, Fortune magazine made a survey of the same prob­ lem recently, and its finding was that "The best medical care is bought by the rich and—In some large cities—obtained free by the poor. “To get first-rate care the mlddle-income group must mort­ gage Itself,” Fortune reported, "Ninety per cent of our p'opu^ lation feel they can not pay for care adequate to their needs" in a normal year. Now suppose you happen to be in the fortunate 10 per cent that can pay for any care needed, but you have fin emergency case in your family, and you happen to be in one of thè many sections of our state that is 25 or 50 miles from the nearest hospital? Or one of the 34 counties without a single hospital? Or suppose you can’t get a doctor promptly for the simple (Conttoned on page t) ^ In New Guinea Cpl. William (Bill) H. Hoots, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hoots, of Mock.svUle, Is now in New Guinea, He was recently promoted to corporal.

The "E" quota is $108,00|0 and the “E" sales are only approximately $67,000, Knox Johnstone states. HEREftTHERE IN TEXAS S.

BIRTH ANNOUNCED Seaman 1-c and Mrs. Charles Markland of Advance, a son, No­ vember 24, at Mercy hospital, Charlotte. Seaman Markland, serving on an LCI in English waters, took part, in the inva­ sion on D-day. Mrs. Markland Is making her home with her parents, Mr, and Mrs, V, Q. Mor­ ris, of Stanly. Each week The Enterprise snnunarises the war news, both abroad and at home, so that readers may get a quick, bird’s eye view of Important happenings. General Isenhower recently said that the Germans would make their final stand west’of the Rhine and It now appears more certain that such \frill be the case. This means that the hardest grimmest battles in Europe aré yet to be fought before Germany Is licked. The Rhine, Meuse and Roer rivers guard the critical gateways into the Rhine-Ruhr valley and a die-hard, foot- by-foot defense is expected before the Germans are blasted out. The Nazis are depending on bad weather, both to keep down cir support of our troops and hamper ground action. Againd¿ such handicaps and aided by strong defenses of the Siegfried line, the Germans hope to wear down the Allied objective of driving to or beyond the Rhine this winter. Nevertheless the Allies have gained their flrst objectives in this huge struggle on a 275-mile front by cracking the last outpost of the reich. RUSSIANS D R IV E O N B U D A P E ST Some reports have the Red army fighting in the sub­ urbs of Budapest and this Hungarian capital is expected to fall soon. Berlin alsa" says something which' appears more im­ portant; That the Russians are massing men and mate­ riel for a drive on Austria and Germany. The Russians have been waiting for winter weather when a heavy assault is anticipated to coordinate with the drive in the west. R E C O R D B O M B IN G S During the past week the bombings by the Allies on the industrial towns and feeders for the western front have reached a new peak exceeding that of D-day. Some 4,000 planes poured 7,000 tons of explosives on the reich in one day, hitting Frankfurt, Hanau, Giessen and other nearby rail centers supplying German troops on the American First and Third army fronts from the Saar basin all the way north to the Ruhr. O R M O C IS T A K E N General MacArthur announced during the week that Ormoc nad been taken from the Japs and that the garrison had been wiped out in desperate fighting. The Japs are es­ timated to have had 75,000 men on Leyte during the fight­ ing so far. Determined efforts have been made by the Japs to reinforce Leyte and the latest report is that ten ships of 11 in a convoy were sunk or damaged off northwestern Leyte on Monday and Tuesday. The Japs claim that the decisive battle of the Philippines is being fought on Leyte and it “xplains that efforts to keep General MacArthur from establishing a springboard for assault on Manila. Much bitter fighting still faces our troops before the Philip­ pines are taken. (Continued on page 4). NEW HEADS OF MOCKSVILLE MASONS Master s. R. liATHAM Senior Warden 0. H.

McCLELLAN Paul Stroud near County Line saved around 500 pounds of sericea lespedeza seed from some eroded hilly land. He plans to sow a good bit of his seed on some troublesome land on his newly bought farm. T. O. Angell near Mocksville saved around a ton of seed from five acres of what was unpro­ ductive land in 1942. He plans to seed additional acreage. Norman Rummage saved 1,430 pounds of sericea seed on E. C. Morris’ property in Mocksville. This land was about as poor as land can ever get, in 1942, but It is much improved now. Joe Smith near Fork church has about five acres of sericea he grazed this summer. He also got some seed from this plot. Sericea lespedeza is a valuable crop for hilly dry land. It got a poor start in Davie county sev­ eral years ago when people paid high prices for seed expecting to get rich growing seed. They gave no thought of its value as a hay and grazing crop. Since consid­ erable seed are being saved in this county there will be lota more of this crop used. . DULIN Mrs. J. X. McCulloh and daughter, Jackie, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. W. Q.

Cordell Hull The resignation of Cordell Hull, the Secretary of State, brings genuine regret to millions of Americans re­ gardless of party affiliations. Mr. Hull has made one at the besó secretaries which this country has had in many decades. He has served over a period of time when the greatest events in world history have been taking place, and his leadership during this time entitles him to a seat among the honored great men of America, and o| the world. His work in making for neighborliness among our South American neighbors has been an outstanding achievement, and his principles and plans for a world order after the war have met with wide approval, both In this country and among our Allies. Mr. Hull, a very plain, modest, unassuming Tennessean became a state» man oi the first order. A great man and a great citizen has earned the right to sit among the immortals. The prayers and best wishes of the whole country will go out to him in the hope of his recovery to health and strenght. SOME FUN!vesttgation. The information Is transferred to punch cards at the census bureau, after review of the completed schedules, and the cards are thereafter iden­ tified only by number. Most tabulations of census data are made from the punch cards, and through various sorting and compilation methods specific data can be grouped toiisther for the nation-as a whole, for states, counties and for any minor civil division within the county of any state. HERE'S T W PUP ^ ORDERED.! W E T IB ES TH IS W A V !" Towards Peace The battles move slowly. The fighting is tough, and the cosb is great. But we are moving, and moving towards victory, as far as victory of arms is concerned. Then will come the period which will call for more wisdom and more sacrifice than the war has demanded— if we are to really achieve permanent peace and a world order which will maintain it. W e can never achieve that goal if every nation, or group, or hidivldual, wishes to have its own particular wishes written into it. The aim will be to organ­ ize world society on the basis of what is just, and best, for all, as we ought to know will mean surrender of some things by everybody. Only in that spirit of approach can we come to these problems and tasks with» any degree of hope for a better world. Tta begin with we must write that spirit into our individual lives, into our community, and our immediate relationships before we can hope to write it Into a world order. MORE ABOUT Census age Into land harvested or idle land used for pasture or graz­ ing, land with crop failure, and land Irrigated. LABOR FORCE A comprehensive picture of the country’s farm labor force and its yearly cost is expected to be reached on the basis of queries as to the number of farm workers employed at a given date, both paid and unpaid, in­ cluding enumeration of the la­ bor of the farm operator and thé farm work performed by mem­ bers of the operator’s family. The total uash outlay for farm labor throughout the year also will be asked. In this connec­ tion, information will, be re­ quested on the number of days on which the farm operator may have worked off the farm for pay or profit. Questions relating to acreage and production of field crops harvested during the year,will vary from region to region. Fig­ ures on the amount of corn and sorghums grown will be obtaln- England And America Those Amei^icans who. have sometimes complained that England has not done her full share in this war should study the facts and figures recenly released. The cold figures cannot tell the whole story, but they furnish im­ pressive evidence of the almost superhuman accomplish­ ments of the British people. They have suffered in patience and in silence the terrible destruciveness of the Germans, and they- have contributed more than their shai'c in pro­ duction and effort. .

Cope have gone to Gainesville, Fla., where they will spend two weeks with tor ,the Rev. A. T. Stoudenmlre, under whose leadership the pro­ gram began. The message was brought by the Rev. A. T. Stoudenmlre, who used as his text Exodus 14:19, "Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.” He referred to a bigger task ahead—that of building a church to go into the church house. That task Is yet unfinished, he said, and challenged the church to “go forward." Much credit Is due the fine building fund committee which is composed of C. B. Hoover, chairman, R. V. Alexander, sec­ retary, E. C. Tatum, treasurer, L. J. Davis and J. F. Everhardt. They worked hard at the Job and never failed In any effort that was put forth.

The committee mapped plans to raise the $4800, which was more than double any pre­ vious goal. That goal was not only reached, but was surpassed by $2,649.20. Much credit is due the people as a whole for their fine coop­ erative spirit to put over any worthy program. Without this not have succeeded.

' M O R E A B O U T W A R N E W S T R E E L IG H T PR ICE BASE SET The office of price administration has Issued an order providing that the price to consumers of Christmas tree lighting sets, when assembled by retailers, must be no more than the total of the retail prices for each of the parts mak- Ing up the set. This action was taken in view of the fact that because of the shortage of lighting sets many retail­ ers plan to assemble their own from wire, plugs, sockets and bulbs on hand. Incidentally ,no new sets are being made. T EC H N IC A L F U T U R E F O R B O Y S SEEN Parents of boys will be Interested in the report just published by the United States office of education which takes the view that new developments in electronics, air transportation and automobile design, as well as creation of improved materials for textile,- food and construction uses, will demand a large increase In trained technical per­ sonnel. The report states'thtit about flve trained ‘tech­ nicians are needed In modern industry for every profes­ sional engineer. These technicians fall into four main cate­ gories; engineering and science aides requiring a year or two of pre-employment training; narrowly trained special­ ists such as inspectors; production and maintenance super­ visors, and semi-technical salesmen, accountants and like workers. Housewives might well make a note on their shopping calendar for next month that plentiful foods for January will include the following: Onions, eggs and fresh apples (especially lower grade apples) in the unprocessed food class. And, in processed foods, peanut butter, jams (ex­ cept berry types), jellies, apple butter, citrus marmalade, frozen vegetables, frozen baked beans, dry mixed and de­ hydrated soups ,soya flour, soya grits, soya flakes, wheat flour and bread, macaroni, spaghetti, noodles and oatmeal. These will be available over most of the country, according to the office of distribution of the war food administration. Tie a war bond on the tree— the thoughtful gift to your loved ones. Point values for rationed meats, butter, margarine, cheeses, canned milk, canned fish and processed foods will continue unchanged from November values during Decem­ ber ,the office of price administration points out. At the a-aine time 1^ was stated that December meat poundage Is expected to be about 5.4 per cent higher than last month, while the quantity of rationed meats is estimated at 11.8 per cen above November levels. The incrases, O P A cau- tioncl, are small ineration to the country’s ability to con­ sume. A total of 3,000 automobiles makes up the national quota of new motor cars available for sale this month— the same amount as in November. December passenger car tire quotas, however, will be 150,000 units higher, or 2,000,- 000 tires, than in the preceding month, O P A states. A slightly higher quota of truck tires spells little or no relief from s'xortages in this category. M O M m o v T Medical Care reason that there aren’t enough doctors to go around and they are all out on calls? All the money In the world wouldn’t help you or your child then, would It? Yes, the program recommend­ ed by the governor’s commission would be a Ood-send to the sick- and-needy, but it would also be a tremendous service In provid­ ing "inore doctors, more hospi­ tals, and more insurance" for the rich and middle classes. Let’s put all considerations of charity, ideals, and altruism aside for a monient and look at the matter from a cold-blooded, dollars-and-cents selfish angle. The estimated cost of operat­ ing such a program is not quite one and a half million dollars a year. This is an average of less than 40 cents per year for each man, woman, and child in the state. For this 40 cents, here is what you and I, our neighbors, our poor, and our whole commu­ nity stand te tain: ’ 1. A stat« fuiid to auiaf our county or town to buUd ouraAvea a hospital and to build ourselves smaller rural health centers, ac­ cording to our present and fu­ ture needs. 2. A 'central state hospital, which will also be available to local patients, and which it is hoped will develop into a great medical center, offering our citi­ zens the asme quality and va­ riety of medical service which they now expect only 'from a few nationally-known hospitals. 3. A four-year, medical school and a state loan fund to take our bpys. from this county and train tl\e additional doctors'we need, especially for the rural areas. 4. These three phases would all be of service to every inhabi­ tant of the state—whether he were a full-pay patient, part- pay patient; or charity case— and there would be, In addition, a state fund 8f $1 per day for each indigent patient in any hospital in the state. SPECIAL BONO FOR OLDER FOLK The treasury haa a bond es­ pecially for the older people, but many of them don’t know about it, the agricultural section of the war finance division points out. This is the current income se­ ries G-bond paying two and one half per cent interest per annum every six months and maturing in 12 years. Any person who needs regular 5, A systematic effort by the state administrative agency to encourage all our people to take out as much medical Insurance as they can afford and thus pre­ pare themselves in advance to meet as large a percentage of theri expenses for medical care as they are able. The cost of this great program for good health would be less than 40 cents per person per year. That’s a bargain we can’t afford to pass up, isn’t it? income from Interest on tlictr money ’ sKouM consider the O series. No Income Is more cer­ tain than the treasury check which Is mailed every six months to owners of O bonds. For a cur­ rent Income government bond maturing in 12 years, two and a half per cent is a high rate of Interest, the treasury points out. The G bond is the ideal invest­ ment for tlie farmer piast 65 who might be retiring in less than ten years. Farmers are not now Included in social security. Pew of them have an annuity of any kind. In old age they must live off the Income of tlielr property and Investments. Current Income is not the only G '^bond feature that appeats to the older investor. Like the pop­ ular E- bond the G series has fixed redemption values. They can be cashed anytime after six months from issue. Counting in­ terest already received, this cash redemption value is always more than cost. In the event of own­ er’s death the estate can redeem In New OttiiiM Pvt. J. L.

PUBLIC WELFARE OBJECTIEVS IN DAVIE COUNTY ARE STUDIED Dr. Klleh Winston, stAte com- mlsstOMr of public welfare. In a^wMt to pavle county this week ' 4nid In reviewing with Mrs. Luclle Donnelly, superintendent of public welfare, progress made In first quarter of present fiscal .year (July 1 to November 1), it was ’ pointed out that in July, Davie county with an average old age assistance grant of $10:07 was 57th in comparison with other counties in the state. Whereas in November, Davie county had an average grant of 111.09 and was 32nd in com­ parison with other counties; with aid to depe^ent children stlU more marked progress had been made—in July the average aid to dependent children grant w«M $27.53 with Davie ranking lOth and in November the aver age grant was $34.93, ranking third in the state.

CHILD FEEDING STUDIED HERE Mrs. Gladys S. Thomas, as­ sistant supervisor ot the child feeding program, visited Davie county on Thursday, December 14, to assist with the child feed­ ing program In the Farmington school and in the Cooleemee school. Mrs. Thomas also visit­ ed the Mocksville school to check on the eligibility of the Mocksville school for federal funds. Mrs. Thomas was well pleased with the handling of the program In the Farmington and Cooleemee schools but declined to approve the Mocksville school because of the lack of space in the building. The child feeding program is an effort of the federal govern­ ment to provide good wholesome food for every child regardless of their financial ability. A com­ plete meal served with one-half pint of milk is provided for every child usually at an average price of 10 cents per meal. Any defi­ cit incurred by the local school is reimbursed by the child feed­ ing program to the amount of nine cents per meal. Federal funds must be used in purchas­ ing groceries and milk from local grocers, farmers and dairymen. It Is hoped that as soon as build­ ing facilities can be Improved that a good wholesome meal can be made available to every child in Davie county. Name Chairmen For Boy Scouts Robert S.

Each week The Enterprlw sumnMurlies the war newe, both abroad and at home, m that readers may get. a quick, bird’s eye view of iihpoitant happeninp. Partially lifting a news blackout, as this is written Al­ lied headquarters has announced that a portion of the western front where the Germans have counterattacked has been stabilized. The Oermans fiercely attacked along a 70-mile front and penetrated the U. S. First army lines between five and 20 miles inside Belgium and Luxembourg. The attack was in great strength with tanks and ^rpower, the latter a .surprise. The object of the attack appears to be two-fold; one, to prolong the war and get a negotiated peace, particularly at this time when Allied political fortunes are in a muddle in Greece;, two, to seize Aachen and Leige through which supplier are going to our forces. While military observers say the situation will be “con­ tained," it is not taken lightly. Marshal Rundstedt has rushed many first class divisions into the fray, and the air fighting is repôïléd to be heavier m an u-aay. m e uerman leader is recognized as a capable soldier and he evidently struck before General Isenhower was ready to throw a hay­ maker at him and break into the Cologne plains. Heavy casualties are reported on both sides. IN T H E PHILIPPINES In the Philippines the invasion of Mindoro has met with practically no ground resl|stance and 742 Jap planes were.reported shot ^6w n diiriftg the pest week. In addi­ tion Admiral Nimitz says that the Japs had 41 ships sunk and 61 damaged in a three-day air attack on Luzon last .week. The conquest of Luzon, however, is expected to be a hard struggle for General ManArthur. G R E E K SITUATION The situation In Greece still remains serious with con­ siderable flghting. Churchill has declined to debate the problem while the battle on the western front is in prog­ ress. It appears, however, that there will be no peace in Greece until the resistance forces are given an opportunity to share in the running of the country. D R A F T CALLS Washington says that draft calls will be upped in Jan­ uary and February. All men under 30 who have been re­ jected ior the draft since last February will be re-examined in 1945, except those with obvious phy.sical defects. PR ESID EN T B A C K President Roosevelt is back in Washington after a three-week vacation at W arm Springs. He said no date had been set for a meeting with Churchill and Stalin, stated there was no formal signing of the Atlantic Charter but that the United Nations had agreed to the principles. The senate conflrmed the appointment of six men to the state department who had been questlonecl on their views. 17 MORE DAVIE BOYS ARE INDUCTED INTO SERVICE The following 17 Davie boys left here last Tuesday morning for Camp Croft where they were Inducted into military service: william Grimes Phelps, Cool­ eemee.

ENTBRPinSB PAOBS STILL BE NEEDED ON FARM Right at the start, let’s ac­ knowledge that we are doing too much plowing in some sections of this country. Then, having made that clear, let’s go on to say that It is nonsense to main­ tain, as Edward H. Faulkner does in Plowman’s Folly,, that the moldboard plow has sapped the \ soil of its fertility, raided the nation’s food basket, fostered crop pests, and even paved the way for the current vitamin-pill fad. Mr. Faulkner’s book is well written, and his thesis has at­ tracted wide attention in a nation which has been increas­ ingly conscious of a “farm pro­ blem” ever since the dust bowl disaster of the middle thirties and especially since ratinoing and victory gardening have made almost everyone interested in crops. But Mr. Faulkner’s thesis is Your patronage we have enjoyed, Goodwill and friendship, too, Our gratitude we try to show By saying “THANKS” to you. We’d like to have you know, that wltto | Our efforts we will strive To keep your valued friendship and Goodwill with us, alive. '■i And noiw we wish you one and all Our bearty wish sincere, For a Very Merry Christmas And a Prosperous New Year. MAYFAIR BEAUTY SHOPPE Miss Jo Cooley, Ovvner TAKE YOUR FEimUZER NOW„ There's ■ cridt in the makingl If stocks pile up in fertilizer plants and agents' ware* houses, the stream of supply will choke up. They must move fast or the lack of man-power will cause a para­ lysing shortage. Tdice the Chilean Nitrate situation for example. To supply the qumtity needed for 1945 crops, many car­ goes must b« iwloAded Mch mon^ at each port, thea Bwved out by train and track for immediate allocation. It must move out of agents' hands as fast as it moves la. If n9t, the. chjtAe-up starts and works back to the ports, even back to the shipa. ' Already there's a threatened shortage of nitrogen. 4ue to sharply increase war needs. Unless you help •mash the bottle-neck-by taking your nitrate as soon as it is offered, the shortage will become acute. Thous­ ands of tons will pile up at U.S. ports or on the docks In Chile, The only place Chil­ ean Nitrate does you any good is on your crops. Get t you«'» »ow ■. ■ while you can.

The moldboard plow is not the cause of our soil pro blems. Even though it is true that in some areas we have plow­ ed too much it would be folly to discard, as he wants us to, an Implement which has done much to make the United States the world’s leading food producer. Surely we’re not ready to discard it because a former county agent and insurance salesman has cul­ tivated a bountiful tomato patch near Elyria, Ohio, without using it. Faulkner contends that the moldboard plow, which turns up the soil to a greater depth than other methods of cultivation, has ravaged Mother Earth’s fertility and thus made It necessary for farmers to depend more and more on artificial fertilizers to nourish their crops. It seems to me essential to refute his reason­ ing and present sound advice for revltallising our farm lands. The evangelist ol Plowman’s Folly bases his gospel on his own supposition that crop roots tend always to develop very near the surface of the soil. (This is not true, as I will later explain.) The moldboard plow, he argues, buries fertilizer and green man­ ure well below the surface and thus beyond the reach of crop roots, and as a result the released nutrients are of no value to the plants. Secondly, Faulkner, also visions the manure and surface resi­ dues, buried at the plowsole, as a sponge layer which absorbs water as a blotter absorbs ink. This layer of decaying organic matter draws water from the soil above, Faulkner explains, and also interrups the capillary rise of water from the subsoil below. As a result, Faulkner bellevee, an artificial drought is produced in the surface soli where the plants are rooted. His third important point is that plowing is a violation of nature’s laws; he explains that nature has done very well with­ out plowing, as exemplified by her giant redwood trees, tropical Jungles, and pampas grass.

Eventually these agen­ cies ruin the topsoil and even re­ move it by erosion or wind. Warming to his subject, the author claims that tillage with the disc harrow—or some other implement of shallow cultivation -^will cancel all the plow’s follies and in addition eliminate weeds, make food richer in vitamins, prevent crop diseases,' and foil insect pests. Some of the advant­ ages of using the disc harrow, as he sees them, are: (1) The sod and manure rubbish would be left near the surface—just right for the shallow roots. (2) This surface mulch would hold rain water at root level and pre­ vent erosion. (3) It would pre­ vent dust-bowl disasters by serv- tag to anchor the topsoil against the winds. If we are going to examine Mr. Faulkner’s arguments, we must become acquainted first of all with the rooting habits of com­ mon crop plants. In our Soils Building on the University of Wisconshi campus, there Is a large glass case con­ taining uprooted p|lants at var- k)us stages of growth. Oats, com, clover, and other plants were carefully dug out by a s e p ^ technique,. leaving all of their roots Uitact, and placed In this case some fifty years ago by Pro­ fessor P. H. King. Many of the roots of these plants exteno. to a depth of two or three feet and some much deeper. Less than ono-fourth of the total mass of the roots If found in tlii threc- inch surface layer where Faulk­ ner contends that the great bulk exists. Inveslgatlon throughout the world regarding the root devel- opemnt of crop plants have con­ firmed King’s findings Anyune who wislies to investigate root development of crop plants have confirmed Khig’s findings.

Sig­ nal Corps photo. root development for himself must remove the soil slowly and very carefully—preferably by a special technique using water under pressure. When a plant is pulled up, most of the roots (and all the deep ones) usually remain In the soil, which accounts, In part, for the misconception con­ cerning their length. It is not to be Inferred that all plants are deep-rooted. The common bluegrass which is grown in lawns and pastures, for example, is relatively shallow- rooted, although many of its roots penetrate to a depth of five or six inches. But even this shallow-rooted plant fails to sup­ port Foulkner’s reasoning. Biue- grass often grows indefinitely without plowing. Under these condilton, according to Plow­ man's Folly, it should seldom suffer for dorught, because there is no “blotter” (plowed-under organic matter) to soak up avail­ able moisture. However, everyr one knows that bluegrass lawns, unless artifically watered, suffer from drought long before the farmer’s corn, for which he has plowed under a heavy appiica- tion of manure and crop residue.

S. farms will be measured by the coming U S. Census schedule to begin on January 8. Basic Information on agriculture, Including si^atistlcs on farm acreage, crops, livestock, farm labor, and other Items re­ lated to farm operations wlll be obtained. Information obtained by the census takers wlll be strictly con­ fidential and the records from Individual farms cannot be used for purposes of taxation, regula- tlon,or Investigation, according to Dean I. O. Schaub of State College, who heads an advisory board of all agricultural agencies in North Carolina to work with census officials. Who Is farmer? Under the cen sus rules the grower must farm 3 acres or more or If less than three acres, his agricultural pro­ ducts In 1944, whether sold or used at home, must have amounted to $250 or more, to be considered as a farmer. The census schedule lists 184 questions but happily no one farmer must answer this number of .questions about his own op­ erations. The census committee working on the schedule began with more than two thousand questions and then boiled them down to one hundred eighty- four. “The coming cen.sus wlll give the most complete picture of American agriculture that has ever been obtained and It is par­ ticularly needed at this time,” Dr. Schaub said. “Let me urge every fanner In North Carolina to fully cooperate with the cen­ sus workers and give the most complete Information possible. The facts that are being: gathered at this time will not duplicate the Information being мкм1 by agricultural agenelea.” ; .

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1044 THE MOqCSVlLUE (N. C.) IMXEEnUSB PAflES NEWS OF FARM 1« CONSERVATION By a. W . MoGLElXAN Leon Baity, near Four Corners, la cooperating with Middle Yad* kin Soli Conservation district In trying to Improve and conserve his soil and Increase his yields and Income. Around the flrst ot Septem­ ber Leon sowed about flve acres to grains, rye grass and vetch for fall and winter grazing uilng ample fertilizer. He had seven cows he was milking’before his grazing crops were ready to use. The milk sold from the seven cows brought him IS0.51 for two weeks. When his grazing crops got ready to graze, he had turned one cow dry and was milking six. Dur­ ing this two week period, he sold ies.70 worth of milk with grain and grazing only with no Oood hay and grain was fed before the grazing came in, es* tlmated amount being around aoo pounds of hay per day with a value of at least 13 or $4 per day. Since he did not feed any hay for two weeks while grazing, . It is safe to jay he saved from |4a to ISO on hay, and he got $13.19 more milk which gives at least $55.19 return from the grazing already. This should be an Inducement for more farmers to do this next year. . There Is no cheaper way to feed eowa than to provide graz­ ing for most of the year and ■end the cows out to harvest it. Xt U a good soil eon«ervatk>n too. CONCORD M OR E C O U N T Y EIXHBIT DISBVRSEMENTS: OENERAL, SOCIAL SECVRlTir, POOR FUND, MARCH, 1944. R.

A Report to Those in Service From Davie This Is a report to those in service from Davie county, some 1,200 pr about 8 per cent of our total population, on how things are going at home as we enter the fourth year of war. W e have not done all that we could or should. It would be silly to say that we are fully dedicated to an all-out war. Only a few of us— those who have received that foreboding telegram “the War Department regrets to inform you that your son was killed in anctnlon”— have begun to realize what war means. W e have not lived as simply or as frugally as we should. W e have bought many shoddy things which we could do without because money Is plentiful and desirable merchan­ dise Is not. That money could have gone into more bonds or other savings to help us to assure you of your job when you come back without depending on a government hand­ out. The last thing we would want to see is a stingy gov­ ernment in providing any necessary rehabilitation for you but freedom includes the right to work out our own indi­ vidual economic destiny in the way that we prefer without being led around by the nose by government. That takes money and jobs. This iitatement about living frugally and saving goes in one ear and out the other for too many of us. But it is one place where we have stumped our toe and we may as well frankly admit it to you If we expect America to remain the best place on earth for a man to have a chance to write his own ticket for the good things he desires in life. We must report,'"too, that many of us have done too much preaching to the other fellow about “equal sharing of the scarcities during war’’, and not enough of practicing it. Rationing and price ceilings have done wonders in keeping down the cost of living but the job has not been perfect. W e have black markets— even yesterday a colored man offered to sell : us a carton of cigarettes at 50 cents above the regular ' price., W e have violations of celling prices, sometimes flagrant ones. W e have little white lies, and sometimes big black ones, to get some extra gas. W e still have too much hoarding, despite restrictions of pur­ chases. Yes, and we have had some draft dodging, too. You see we have 'not yet learned to make rationing and price ceilings work smobthly because too many of us “cheat” a little here and there. In other words, popular opinion is not solidly vbehind the restrictions and such agencies as the OPA cannot keep our nose clean If we are not In iavor of it. Of course the OPA now and then catches somebody trying to get away with murder and they crack down on him' but It is impossible for them to police every­ thing and everybody. As a people we do not like Oestapo methods and we have not been hard-boiled enough among ourselves in our own small communities to see that every­ body, shares alike and pays the same price. To be. brutally frank, about It, restrictions hamper the ability to make money and too many of us want to win the war and make money at the same time. Luxuries and the idea of making money go out of the window only as the impact of war comes nearer home. And we have played too much politics at a time when the chips were dovwi. W e have tried to keep the homefolks posted on the progress of the war, w,rlting a summary of it each week for our front page. This summary has been gathered from many sources: newspapers, radio, magazines, books. It represents considerable time and reading, although the job has never been done to our satisfaction. W e might tell you, incidentally, that we have refrained from any wishful thinking about the end of the war. We have emphasized week by week that the war would be a long, hard anü costly one and that it would take time and sacrifice to win It. Pictures of you still have top priority In the paper. In looking over back Issues for the three years we notice that we have run about 400 of them. Many of them were not as good as we would have liked bufthey were the only ones your relatives had of you. Now a word about the peace. W e admit that we are disturbed over the prospects of a lasting peace. One thing we have learned, however. W e must find some means of fixing it so that Germany and Japan cannot wage war for a long time and we must cooperate with other nations simllarly-mlnded. It is no easy job and we might as well make u)j our liilnds that we have a big stake In what hap­ pens on. the other side of two oceans. The kind of a peace we have will be determined by what we think and do here at home. W hen you get back home we expect your voice OUR DEMOCRACY ЬуМ«( If ............

If In this report we appear to be less patriotic than we should and not doing our best to help you, please remember that we are confessing our shortcomings in order that we may do better. W e want to do our best and the hearts and minds ijf most of us are In the right place. It takes us a long time over here to realize some of the horrors of a bit­ ter, ruthless war over there. W e cannot ever hope to real­ ize fully but we have learned much In the last three years. Many of us would gladly change- places with you If it were possible At the opening of our fourth year of war, we renew our determination to stand proudly with you. come what may, till It’s won, P, S.

DAyiE FURNITURE COMPANY MocksviUe, N. C. forty ton« per acre of manure wer plowed under, this manure, In Itself, could »^hold hold only about one-tentti of an Inch of water, that Is, one tenth Inch of rainfall; and much of this water would be available to nourish plant growth Just as Is water held by the soli proper. Careful Inveslgatlons have also shown that the capillary rlae of water in soils is always rather slow. That is one reason why some plants, like corn, have de veloped the habit of going after the subsoil water by means of deep roots. Most crop plants go after the water rather than wait­ ing for the water to come to the roots near the surface. If they did not, they would dry up in midsummer like bluegrass. As a matter of fact, it is for­ tunate that water does not rise too rapidly in soils by capillary movement (similar to the move­ ment of oil up a lamp wick to the flame), for the topsoil be­ comes so warm and the air move­ ment at the surface is so rapid that evaporation and loss of water would be extremely serious. Owing to the slow water move­ ment, however, the evaporation during warm weather runs ahead of the capillary rise, and as a res­ ult a two-to three Inch layer of very dry soil is formed near the surface. This layer of dry soil acts in two important respects: (1) Since it is very dry, it fails to function sufficiently In bringing water to the surface where it would be lost rapidly because of active air movement and re­ latively high temperatures. (2) It serves as a good insulator for preventing the water under­ neath from becoming so warm that it would vaporise and es­ cape right through the layer of soli. Thus the layer of soil In which Faulkner proposes we do our farming must be dry much of the tliie so that it may serve as an Insulator for the soli below where plants must obtain most of their water and nutrients. And since crop plants obtain most of their nutrients below this surface lay­ er, the farmer must plow t» place manure and crop residues where it is moist, so that they can func­ tion most advantageously, Faulkner says that in nil of his experience no one has ever advanced a scientific reason for plowing. I have Just given one. Briefly, here are three more: (1) Plowing because of the special shape of the moldboard produces a shearing action in three directions on the thick lay­ er of soil that is lifted and turn­ ed. As a result, the turned soil layer is pulverized, and thus a more satisfactory seed bed 1« possible than with an implement that turns shallow layers. (2) Plowing also helps to im­ prove and rejuvenate soils by bringing the deeper layers from time to time near the surface where the desirable processes of aeration, oxidation, and alter­ nate freezing and thawing are more active. (3) And by plowing under or­ ganic matter it is possible to maintain an active soil layer deep enough to provide satisfac­ tory conditions for crop plants. Of course you will say "the proof ofthe pudding is in the eating." Do field tests actually show plowing to be superior to other methods of ’ cultivation? Experiments conducted by the Wisconsin Agricultural Experi­ ment Station, in which surface tillage was compared with plow­ ing, gave the following results: on heavy soil, wheat yielded 32 per cent more with plowing than with surface tillage; and similar­ ly, on a light light soil, the yield of corn was 16 per cent greater. Results of other experiments showing the superiority of plow­ ing could be cited. In his research Faulkner did not compare the two tillage operations: he simply grew crops with surface tillage and then concluded that his me- th’od was better than plowing. For the most part, he does not even tells usthe yield he obtained Because of the almost limitless tractor power which will be at the disposal of the future farmer, the form of the plow may change. However, for many con­ ditions the trend will not be in the direction of shallower plow­ ing, but rather in the direction of deeper plowing so as to make a thicker layer of active soil and A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU “ It’s a very pleasant, cheering custom to reifew friendly associations during the Yuletide by extending to you our sincere wishes for a MERRV CHRISTMAS L.

L PIERCE FOSTER if It’s Cotton See Foster’* thus Improve conditions for crop growth. ' There arc, of course, good and poor kinds of plowing. When heavy soils in a very wet con­ dition arc plowed, puddling rather than shearing takes place and the soil becomes lumpy and in poor physical condition. Also, when excessive amounts of raw organic matter are plowed under at one time, a loose porous layer at the plowsole h produced which Is detrimental to crops that fol­ low tomedlateiy. In order to ob­ viate the difficulty under these conditions, farmers are advised to disc before plowing. This pro­ motes an Ideal condition for crop growth because the organls mat­ ter is then thoroughly mixed with the soli at a sufficient depth to function most satisfactorily. Of course there are certain conditions where plowing is not advisable. For example, when hilly pasture ‘land is to be re­ seeded, it is often desirable to disc rather than to plow, so as to lessen the danger of erosion. And In the dust bowl, subsurface tillage, leaving the trash at the surface, is recommended In or­ der to help the soil absorb the water during heavy downpours and also to prevent the wind and water erosion that would result from too much disturbance of the surface layer Land can be plowed too often. It can also be surface-cultivated too often. This is particularly true of sandy land, which tends to be so open and porous that the organic matter oxidizes or burns up too rapidly. Surface cultivation and plowing both hasten burning. For soils of this type, crop rotation which keeps the land in perennial legumes and grasses a good share of the time are advocated. If such a system Is followed, plowing need occur only when an annual crop like corn It planted. ‘The Storm May Roar,’ Prayer Brings Calm ■ Capetown — Vlcc-Admlral Sir Robert Burnett, a key command­ ing officer In the South Atlantic, In a speech here, said: “Sailors see the wonders of the Lord and we have seen the an­ swers to our prayers. “I have yet to meet a sailor who has been through a great stoi-m or great action, who does not believe In God.” "About this girl you want to marry; has she • good connec­ tions?" asked a proud mother.

Clifton Parrish, Exten­ sion poultryman at State College, says there will be a definite shortage ag both wood snd fiber cases in 1945, according to re­ ports. He suggests that producers dealers, handlers, and everyone concerned with the movement of eggs to market should consider this shortage and place orders now for good egg crates. Q.How should I sow my tobacco beds where a chemical treatment was used to destroy woeds? A. Prepare a very shallow seed bed with a garden rake, says Or. Emerson Collins, in charge of Extension agronomy at State Col­ lege. Live weed seeds will be found in the soil just below the tirst few inches of top soil^ which received treatment. If these seed are brought to the surface of if seed are dragged onto the bed from the outside, these seed will rapidly germinate in the spring and undo all the good work of chemical treatment. For these reasons, a very shallow working of the bed at seeding is recom­ mended. Q. How much can I increase my corn yields per acre? 'a. “That depends on a number of factors,” says Dr. B. A. Krantz ot the Agricultural Experiment Station at State College. He took a sandy loam soil in Hoke county that was producing 19 bushels of corn per acre an raised the yield to 107 bushels per acre. He used N. C, 1032, a yellow hybrid corn; spaced the plants 17 inches apart in 3 V2 foot rows; and used 750 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre with high amounts of phos­ phate and potash. “The spacing provided enough plants to make a high ytold and the rainfall dis­ tribution was good throughout the growing season,” Krantz said. "The farmer kept the corn clean by the use of a harrow early, cultivated it twice, and ‘laid it by’ when it was two feet high.” Soldier Foils Nazis By Swallowing Man Memphis, Tenn., — Corporal David M.

Corp­ oral Snyder said he knew only one way to keep the map from the Germans if they counter­ attacked. He chewed and swallowed it.

For counties not meeting the October state average of 111.50 for old age assistance, a rise to a minimum average of $11.50. In Davle county this would mean an increase of 41 cents. 3. For counties not meeting the October sUte average of $33, a rise to a minimum average of $22. Davle county h«s already far surpassed this average. 4. An ofTiee tn each county adequate in terms of space, wait- lag room fadUties, equipment, and leaeral appearaace. Ob- Tlously Davle county Iws far to go to attain this objective.
