STATE DENTIST PERFORMS 1,499
OPERATIONS ON DAVIE PUPILS
Dr. H. S. Zimmerman, state
dentist from the North Carolina
State Board of Health, has just
completed his work in Davie
county. He spent one week in
each of the following schools:
Mocksville primary school, Wil
liam R. Davie school, Farming
ton school, and the Smith Grove
school. During tlie four weeks in
the county Dr. Zimmerman in
spected the mouths of 675 chil
dren and treated 244, There
were 369 children whom he re
ferred to local dentists for treat
ment.
^ Dr. Zimmerman performed a
total of 1,490 operations includ
ing 189 fillings. 255 extractions
and thorough cleaning for 244
children.
Dr. Zimmerman spends a part
of his time in educational work
and gave a total of 21 lectures
on Oral Hygiene with a total at
tendance of 675 school children.
Of the 244 children for whom
Dr. Zimmerman worked 90 were
“repeaters,” thus showing the re
lationship between a good
healthy mouth and achievement
in school. It is hoped that ar
rangements can be made to have
a state dentlst'spend a longer
time in the county next year in
order that the children of all the
schools may have the benefits
of this service
1,000 DAVIE SCHOOL CHILDREN
EXAMINED BY HEALTH OFFICIALS
Dr. J. Roy Hege, District Health
Officer for Davie county, and
■the county nurses have Just com
pleted examinations of the school
children in tlie Davie county
schools. Exactly one thousand
children, including eighty-seven
pre-school children, were given
a physical exanilnati<m. Of the
^ildren examined 631 were vac
cinated for smallpox; 96 chil
dren were Immunized for whoop
ing cough and 60 were’ immu
nized (or diptherla. There were
7a children who had never been
inununized for either whooping
cough or diptherla and they
were given the combined or mix
ed immunization.
Dr. Hege found 341 children
with bad tonsils and 19 with
heart defects. Every effprt will
be made through the schools
and the health department to
secure the immediate correction
of these defects.
The physical examinations
made by Dr, Hege were thor
ough and efficient but should
be followed up by parents for
the purpose of remedial and
correctional measures. It is im
possible for the health depart
ment to assume the full respon
sibility of all health conditions.
Parents are urged to follow up
the findines of the health de
partment and of the state school
dentist.
Teachers of the schools will as
sist the parents and pupils in
any way to secure the immedi
ate correction of physical de
fects. It Is especially Important
that parents give close atten
tion to nutrition defects as child
feeding affects the whole physi
cal condition of the school child.
Children who carry lunches to
school should be provided with
a well balanced lunch if they
are expected to do efficient work
in the schools.
It is hoped that program can
be carried on in the schools to
develop tlie matter of nutrition
and scholastic achievement on
the part of pupils.

Each week The Enterpriie avmmariies the war
news, both abroad and at home, ao that readers may
get a quick, bird’s eye view of important happenings.
General Elsenhower’s offensive in the west is gpin-
ing in power and drive. Pour allied armies aie driving
for the Rhine and Eisenhower* says that their aim Is to
destroy all Germans west of the lihine.
These armies are sweeping down on the Ruhr and
Rhineland cities of Cologne, Duesseldorf, Muenchen-Qlad-
bach, Duisburg and Coblentz. German prisoners taken
are reported to be demoralized and the resistance has not
been as fierce as formerly. The Nazi commander is up
against the problem of shifting, reserves on a flaming
200-mile front. Cologne is only. 10.miles away from the
grasp of. the allies.
FIGHTING IN EAST
Berlin says that there is heavy fighting on a 100-mile
front along the Oder and Neisse Hvérs facing Berlin and
Dresden and that the Red army had .advanced to within 23
miles of Stettin, Baltic port which feeds Berlin.
Hitler now faces what he.'has feared most: an all-out
war on two fronts.
It is significant that Hitler has not withdrawn some
20 cracK divisions from Italy. Observers think he is hold
ing these troops to help him after Berlin is taken by the
allies and he flees’to southern Germany to continue the
fight.
FIGHTING ON tw o
U. S. Marines have seized and put into operation one
airfield on Iwo Jima and have taken most of the second.
Fighting on this eight-square mile island is the bitterest
of our history and our casualties have Jieen more tljan
6,000. It is necessary to take the island both to afford
bases from which to bomb Japan fuid also to protect our
bombers from interception by Japs on their bomb runs
to Tokyo and other cities. *
MANILA 4B 0U T FREE
Manila is about completely retaken and General Mac-
Arthur has turned over the civil government for liberated
areas of the Philippines to the president of the country.
Tokyo area, meanwhile, received another bombing
last Sunday by more than 1,000 carrier planes and B*29a.
During the week the heaviest bombing ever known
has taken place on communications centers, including
Berlin, in western Germany. Berlin is rapidly becoming
the most bombed city in the world.
COAL STRIKE
John L. Lewis has opened his 1945 campaign for more
pay for\^miners by saying that a strike of nearly 400,000
miners may be just around the corner.
At Che Dodge plant of Chrysler in Detroit 14,000 work
ers have struck because eight were fired for loafing and
the workers have ignored an order of the War Labor Board
and union officials to return to work.
CIVILIANS AT WAR
'Phe Government needs and asks its citizens in this
169th ¡week of the war to:
1. Give all ypu can to the 1945 Red Cross Drive. Vol
untáis contributions of $200,000,000 are needed to carry
out its vast program of service.
2. Keep on saving urgently'needed waste paper and
kitchen fats—also tin cans, where they are locally col
lected.
3. Help save cargo space in transport planes by using

*NEED FOR RED CROSS AID
GREATER THAN EVER SAYS
O’CONNER AS DRIVE OPENS
Cate Fer 1180,000,000
Fund To Cany Serrtece
Throughout This Year
Waehliifrton D. C.—Feb. 28-
Tomorrow the American Red
Cross will open its appeal to the
naitkm tot $180,000,000 to con-
■ ttaue Its world-wide ojjeratlon
with battle front troope, In hos
pitals and on the home front.
Slmultaneoiisly P r e s id e n t
Roosevelt, Ba.sil O’Comnor, chair-
, man of the Red Cross, and Colby
Chester, chairman of the War
Fund campaign, called upon all
m Americans to support the fund
" drive as an indication of their
badclng of men in the front lines.
In officially opening the cam
paign Chalnnan O’Connor point
ed out that the need for Bed
Cross services in the coming
, year will be greater than ever
before.
“Anerlcan men have been
' flgbUng throughout the world
for a long time,” he said. "Thie
. year they will need all of the
moral support we'can give them.
The American Red Cross is
bringing home to those men
wherever they may be stationed.
"The task in the next twelve
montlis will be greater for the
Red Cross lAan ever before, for
not only must we serve the men
in the war zones, but we will be
required to give Increasing as-
cdetanoe to the boys coming back
to the United States.
"We know the American pro-
ple will respond with overwhel
ming generosity, knowbig that
the money they give to the Red
Cross will be used to serve the
men ahd women who are serv
ing hi uniform for us.”
It was estunated here that
more than .3.000,000 American
Red Cross volunteers will conduct
the house to house canvass which
begins tomorrow. Each canvasser
will carry credentials Indicating
Red Cross affiliation during the
campaign.
Outlines Achievements
Otullnlng achievements of the
Red Cross during the past year
Mr. O’Connor declared the Red
Cross is serving in every theater
of war and with every command.
Red Cross workers also are on
duty at scores of out-posts over
the world, are giving aid to
wounded men In hospitals in the
major battle areas and in the
United States, he said. The total
number of workers has more
than doubled since the last War
Fund campaign.
In every Invasion during the
past year, hi pointed out, the
Red Cross has either gone with
the troops, or has followed within
a very short time. Red Cross
field directors were with General
Elsenhower’s men in the great
amphibious hivaslon of France,
and with General MacArthur’s
forces when they returned to the
Philippines.
Home Front Service Expands
Red Cross service on the home
started, and during the past year
the Red Croiss has met the re
quests of both the army and navy
for whole blood shipments to
battle areas in Europe and in
the Far Bast.
Millions of surgical dressings
have been prepared for front line
and hospital use.
Trained nurse’s aides have been
used In increasing numbers In
domestic mllltory and naval hos
pitals to relieve In the ShortJige
of professional nurses.
Red Cross workers at packag
ing centers have maintained a
steady stream of prisoner of war
food parciils for shipment to
Germany and to the Far East.
Aid for Disasters
have been obtained since the war
Neither ha.s the Red Cross re
laxed In its traditional service
to humanity in time of disaster,
Mr. O’Connor said. More than
200 domestic disasters have found
Red Cross workers on the Job to
relieve stricken families and to
aid In the rebuilding of commu
nities. Hundreds of thousands of
dollars have been poured out to
rebuild homes destroyed by
floods, high winds and fires.
Meanwhile,Red.Cross produc
tion workers in hundreds of com

CONSERVATION .
By G. VV. McCLEUAN
J, W. Cartner In South Mocks
ville is preparing to seed 11 acres
of improved pasture and clovers.
Mr. Cartner is about 68 years
old and says he thinks this Im
proved pasture will be profitable,
and a source of pleasure. Noth
ing Is prettier than a real pas
ture with pretty cows on it.
Pasture Is also the cheapest
source of feed. It does splendid
^11 conservation, too,
W. G. Gaither near Sheffield
has a good meadow strip he
established last fall. He seeded
grasses and white clover. This
summer he can turn water'from
terraces on to it. He can also get
hay from this strip.
J. L. Boger and son, Jim, near
Cana are preparing to sow four
acres of improved pasture
grasses. Mr. Boger seeded seven
acres of alfalfa last fall too. Per
manent hay .and pastures are
.■nore irsportant than ever with
the extreme scarcity of, labor
and the need of leed.

The War News
The war news ia good and there is a distinct possi
bility that Germany may be licked by summer. And it
seems to lie agreed that the war against Japan is ahead
of schedule.
All of us have a tendency'to count our chickens be-
iore they hatch when it comes to the end of the war.
That’s natural but we should not allow ourselves to for
get that there is much hard fighting yet ahead of us and
that our heaviest casualties may yet have to be faced.
Take, for Instance, the de^erate struggle now going on
At Iwo Jima.
At the same time Eiaehhower has opened his winter
offensive on the western front. This offensive must not
only reach the Rhine but also carry on to Berlin. While
we are dealing the dee^tti blow to the enemy, we must re
member that It is bound to cost lives.

RATION REMINDER
Rat Killing’ Camjpaign
We hope that every family in Davie county will par
ticipate in the sprradiifg of bait to kill rats. Oeorge Hob
son, covmty agent, and Miss Florence Mackie, home dem
onstration agent, have done a swell job. in organizing the
campaign., It is a common occurrence for farm and city
homes and business establishments to report rats as big
as squirrels. For instance, they have dug holes to enter
the writer’s basement so large that you could easUy put
your fist through the opening.
Both the county commissioners and officials of Mocks-
Tille and Cooleemee are to be congratulated on aiding
jn the campaign.
It is our job to see that the bait is put out. Remem-
ter that the bait must be spread by every one on the same
night to get the best results.
Rev. John A. MacMurray
Everybody who:knows Rev. John A. MacMurray, local
Presbyterian minister, hates to see him leave Mocksville.
A talented Christian gentleman who lives by the Golden
Rule, he is the kind of citizen that any community needs
more of.
Wise in the ways of human nature, he has never
sought to wean the wicked from their evil ways by “hell-
flre and brimstone” methods. Nor has he attempted to
knit the lagging faithful closer to the Master’s desire by
threats of Divine punishment. He has a genuine respect
both for man’s conscience and for^ an intelligent applica
tion of the_ admonition to-“judge not, lest ye be Judged.”
'Working as much by example as by precept, he has
endeared himself to those who know him. One who loves
scouting and who has mastered its fullest significance in
the training of youth, he has done much for the promo
tion of good citizenship, among the Boy Scouts of our
country
His return to Florida, however, was not unexpected
and our best wishes go with him and Mra. MacMurray.

A Share In Kindness
Nothing in life Vs more difficult for peace-loving peo
ple to bear than war with all its grini horror, its unending
trail of .sorrow, its disruption of homes and its utter waste
of life and property. Yet the people of this nation are in
the third year of the world’s most horrible war.
Each day more blue stars in service flags turn to gold
as this son, that brother or that father falls on a distant
and unknown battle-field. Each day hundreds, or thou
sands, of men aré carried back to hospitals with grievous
wounds. Each is a member of some American family.
Thousands, yet millions, of American men in uniform are
tired beyond belief of battle, and homesick for home and
family. Yet they know they must keep on.
There is no one of us but would give everything to
lighten the burden of sorrowing families who have lost
their men, or calm the fears of those whose men have
been wounded. We would give all we could to ease the
pain of the injured, or still the homesickness in those who
must fight on.
Today, as the American Red Cross opens its campaign
for funds, we can do. our share in lightening the burden
of sorrow, in calming the fears, and in easing the pain of
the wounded.
The American Red Cross was created just for that
purpose and through its channels of Mercy we can do most
ior those who need our help.
The Red Cross is at the front keeping alive the at
mosphere of home for the men who are fighting; the Red

TOTAL FOOD RATIONING IN JAPAN
All food and clothing In Japan Is rationed, as well as
matches, medicines, gasoline and fuel, the Office of War
Information states in a comprehensive report on condi
tions within Jaipan. Food is distributed to Japanese con- /
sumers through neighborhood associations, which lamie
the rations. Each association serves 10 families. A local
chairman is appointed by the police. Local food corpora
tions deliver food rations to the consumers at their doors.
“SAFETY FIRST’ FOR FARM INVESTMENTS
When the farmer invests his hard-earned money he
should be careful to Invest it where he is certain that his
principal will be safe, is the advice of M. L. Predmore, ф
Chief of the Agricultural Section of Treasury's War Fi
nance Division. He recalls how many farmers, lured by
high interest. Invested to their sorrow in speculative stocks
and bonds during the last war period. “For this rea«m,”
he declares, ^‘War Bonds are a first choice for the invest
ment of farm savings. They have all the resources of
America back of them. In addition, the Series E War Bond
pays the highest interest rate of any Government security
now aviilabie.”
A tightened home canning sugar program for the 1945
season—a program designed to Insure a fair distribution
of the available sugar to those who actually need It for
canning—has been announced by Administrator Chester
Bowles, OPA. Highlights of the new program ai« as fol- •
lows; ’The housewife will apply at her local War Price and
Rationing Board and indicate the amount of canning she
Intends to do this year. Local boards will issue five-pound
home canning stigar coupons. 'No ration stamps In War
Ration Book Four will be good for canning sugar this year.
For canning fruits and fruit juices, the allowance will be
on the kMsis of one pound for each foiir quarts to be can
ned. Tiie total allowance must not exceed 20 pounds pier
person, or 160 pounds to^^ single family, even though th^
family may contain more than eight persons.
Distribution of the 10,000,000 yards of cotton goods
that is being made available for the first quarter of 1945
to merchants in rural areas has been limited to merchants
who, in 1944, received less than 20 per cent of their 1943
sales of cotton goods, the War Production Board reports.
The allocation of the cotton goods was made specifically
for over-the-counter sale to persons who live )n small towns
and rural areas and who usually purchase such goods for
use in making garments in the home. For the purpose
of the distribution program, small towns and rural areas
were defined as communities of less than 25,000, WPB
explained. No priority assistance was granted to,retailers
in towns with greater population.
Nearly 390,000 American families financed urgently
needed home repairs and maintenance last year with funds
advanced by private financial institutions and insured by
the Federal Housing Administration. Abner H. Ferguson,
commissioner of the National Housing Administration,
says, “Pi-operty repairs and improvements are expected to
create a large number of jobs during the transition pe
riod from war to peace. As soon as wartime restrictions
can be removed, FHA stands ready to extend Its aid to
property owners and financial institutions to undertake
the vital task of property rehabilitation with a convenient
plan of financing.” It is estimated that property repairs^
and improvements, when restrictions are removed, will ag
gregate $3,000,000,000 in the first 12 month period.

C utting The Cost
O f B etter Living
Long before the war, ‘‘conservation’’
was a strong selling point for electric
service. Time — energy — fijcd were
among economies of ths electrical
household, not to mention the conveni
ence and comfort of doing things the
cpre-free electrical way.
These ecomonies have been doubly
important as aids to th3 family budget
in War Time and os a help to more ef
ficient living during the time that has
imposed new duties ond ooprjrtunities
for service on the American home-
ma!'.er.
Remember to be os careful as you
con v/ith yoyr appliances: ____
Keep them,clean, avoid loose screws
or ruts, oil where.indicu! ;'. nnd treat
your c'r'is and plugs with an eye for
long trouble-free service.

Nazis are hemmed into three pockets in the other 20 miles.
Destruction of the bridges probably means that the
allies will moVe more difficulty in establishing bridgeheads
on the eastern bank of the Rhine but it also means that
the Germans have lost thousands of troops east of the
river. The quality of the troops captured is not of the best
order and many of the best German fighters have escaped.
FIGHTING IN EAST
The Russians may be ready very soon to resume their
march on Berlin. They have eliminated any danger of a
flanking attack from Pomerania, reaching the Oder river
within sight of Stettin. Marshall Zhukov has no deep or
wide river to cross ori his drive to Berlin. General Eisen
hower, on the other hand, may require time to bring up
equipment to cross the Rhine. It looks like Russia has a
better chance to reach Berlin before the allies in the west.
FIGHTING AGAINST THE JAPS
The fighting against the Japs at Iwo Jima still re
mains bloody. Our killed are already 2,050 Marlnef but the
Japs have lost six times that number. The capture pÇIwo,
however, is not far off. i/
General MacArthur says the Japs have lost slx?,i^ 10
divisions on Luzon and that the other four are Split up.
We have made two more landing on Luzon and it will not
be long before the port of Manila can be put into use.
PEACE CONFERENCE
Forty-four nations have been invited to participate
in the World Security Conference which opens in San
Francisco on Apirl 25. It is devoutly hoped that at this
confeperice plans will be formulated which will lay the
foundation for world peace for a long time to come.
Any treaty which is signed must be ratified by a two-
thirds vote of the U, S. senate and this country will have ,
representatives of both polltioal parties. Senator Vanden-
berg and former Governor Stassen, leading Republicans,
have indicated they will attend.
CIVILIANS AT WAR
The Ûovemment needs and asks its citizens in this

DAIRY HERD IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION

The well-rounded program of the dairy herd improve

each year now showing wider results, says Secretary of
Agriculture, Claude R. Wickard. Effects of the use of proved

Hoots, near Advance approved
a farm plan with the Middle
Yadkin Soil Conservation Dis
trict the fore part of 1944.
During 194-1 they built over
12,000 feet o'f nice terraces,
bought and applied one carload
of lime and sowed three acres
of serlcea lespedeza.
Recently they seeded six acres
of pasture grasses, planted 2,000
black locust, and sowed 400
pounds of sweet clover seed.
They’re planning to sow three
more acres of serlcea this 'spring.
Deep rooted plants like serlcea
and sweet clover are quite good
for soli conservation. They can
also be used for hay, pasture, and
seed.
W. T. Seamon, near St. Mat

Civilians AWOL
The three thousand strikers and operators of the
Enka plant, near Asheville, N. C. are as much A. W- O- ^
in our opinion, as those fellows reported from the Euro
pean theater of war. Enka makes some very necessary
war material, yet the plant has been idle for weeks. Our
fighting men will feel that loss of prodtiction very deft'
• nitely. How come that we can put 11,000,000 men in uni
form and tell them where to go, and how much mud, rain
and snow they must fight In; the dangers they must face,
and the death which they must die, and then hold up
our hands in helpleasneas before a group of civilians who
defy the government? Is that Democracy? In effect they
have said no, “To h - - with the fighting men. We want
ours, that is all that we are concerned with.” That in
cident alone is sufficient evidence that we need that Work
or Fight bill.
NCVTE: Since !tiw:alXMre was written the governmept
has taken over the plant.
A Big Job Well Done
The critics of the government, and especially those
Gold-playing columnists, might pause long enough to
view the marvelous and prodgious job which has been
accomplished. Look at the navy and the army today in
comparison with Pearl Harbor days; try to calculate the
enormous amount of goods produced, transported, and de
livered to 11 million fighting men—figures which stagger
the imagination. Take a look at the accomplishments of
our figntlng forces; they have gone forward steadily, and
have suffered few real reverses; compare conditions in
our country with those of other lands, and see how well
our economy has stood up under the strain of four years
of- war. These, and many more items could be .mentioned
in counting the marvelous accomplishments of those of
our leaders who have the charge of affairs. Mistakes? Of
course But in the magnitude of the job how could they
have been averted? In comparison with the job, and with
the accomplishments the mistakes are relatively insignif
icant.
Beyond Profit and Wages
If the economic interests of this county are in earnest
about wishing to cooperate in establishing a better world
order they must be willing to face frankly some facts,
. and adjust their aims and methods towards securing that
better world. The business world must learn more than
the law of economics; those laws must be infused with a
moral sense which lifts this economic above the bare mat
ter of gain. It may be trite to say that humanity is pri
mary, for those schools of thought have been saying that
for years, but few of us have said It with a full sense of
its meaning, or with a willingness to translate It Into prac
tical action. Some of us have studied, and watched, the
operation and the effect of some economic practices In
the past, and we are despairing of the attitudes now taken
by many of our leading congressmen, and by men In high
l)uslnes3 positions. This present war had Its origins In
the philosophies of Fascism and Nazllsm, but they, In turn,
had origins in economic mal-practlces. The policy of cer
tain nations to seize and control the resources of raw ma
terial, and the policy of business to buy and sell without
moral responsibility and restraint, were fruitful causes of
both those abominable philosophies. If the kind of social
and economic practices brought us Into the chaos in which
we find ourselves today, isn’t it common sense that we
set about finding some new methods and practices which
promise something better?
I Those who are trying to bring back the over-conser-
vatism of fifty years ago, and those who are planning
upon buying and selling without regard to moral and
social principles are preparing to lead the world into new
disasters. If Free Enterprise is to survive it must know
how to serve. No groiip of men can stem the tide of social
progress any more tlian King Canute could stop the
waves oi the ocean by word of command. The business
world needs some men who know something more than
men wlao know the laws of economics—they must have a
moral nense of responsibility, a Christian conception of
human life, and with some spiritual character and in
sight which will enable them to catch the Divine wisdom
and power in a cooperative effort to work with God in
making His kind of a world—and not a world of mammon
and unvighteousnass.
Growers Adopt Five
Point Cotton Plan
Robeson county has adopted
plans for a cotton program (or
1945 that may be followed to
advantage by other counties in
North Carolina says J. A. Shank-
lln, Extension cotton specialist
at State college.
At a recent meeting of farm
ers, ginners, cottonseed crush
ers, merchants and bankers, á
flve-polnt plan was agreed upon
to encourage the economical pro
duction of quality cotton.
The first point of the plan was
that all farmers, both landlords
and tenants, be encouraged to
plant as largo a cotton acreage
aa they can be reasonably sure
of harvesting
Second, that a one-variety
cotton improvement program be
adopted for the county.
Third, that Ooker 100 Wilt
Resistant be the adopted variety
of cotton and that the Smlth-
Doxey • cotton classing service be
furnished to farmers by all gin
ners In the county.
Fourth, that the group endorse
the N. C. Stite Five-Acre Cot
ton contest and that a similar
contest be conducted for Robe
son county on a local basis In
addition to tlAe state contest.
Fifth, that landlords and ten-
ents work out a more satisfac
tory mean.s of crop sharing and
that all sooperate In boosting
cotton production.
Such plans as those adopted
In Robe.son county, for.cotton_lm=.

In the “Agi'onomy Suggestions
for February" there are three
drawings which show why lime
is applied to acid soils, how the
proper amount of lime benefits
the plant, and how too much
lime may cause crop losses.
Where llmc Is not applied on
acid soils, iron and aluminum

fully used by the plant.
Where too much lime Is added,
diseases may become worse and
some plants may die. Also, such
plant foods as manganese, boron,
and Iron cannot be used by the
plant,

test made, do not apply more

NEW LETTUCE IS CALLED SLOBOLT
A new summer leaf lettuce called Slobolt has been
announced by the Department of Agriculture, and is al
ready being increased by seed growers to make it avail
able to gardeners. It will be listed in the 1946 seed catalogs.
This new lettuce withstands midsummer temperatures
without quickly shooting or "bolting” to seed. If plants
are set 10 to 12 inches apart and only the basal leaves
are used as they reach a desirable size, lettuce may be ,
harvested from the same plants over a period of several
weeks, making It a very desirable home-garden variety.
Slobolt has frilled light-green leaves that have the very ^
wrinkled effect described as savoyed. The plants are of^
moderate size and the seeds are black.
CEILING PRICES RAISED FOR SHIPMENTS
TO DEHYDRATING PLANTS
Country shippers of white potatoes and onions who
make carlot deliveries to dehydrating plants may add 14
cents a hundred pounds to their ceiling price for services
required In carlot distribution, says OPA. County shippers
have always been permitted to add 14 cents a hundred
pounds to the celling price of potatoes for carlot sales de
livered at a terminal market or other wholesale receiving
points. However, many dehydrating plants are located
in potato producing areas and are not in terminal market*
or at other wholesale receiving points. The OPA provision
is expected to make it easier for dehydrating plants to ob
tain supplies of white potatoes from nearby country ship
pers. It is also expected to free freight facilities for othef
important cases.
HEALTH OF NA'nON SHOWS NO SERIOUS DECUNB
Despite the strains of three years of wartime living and
yorklng, and an increasing shortage of physicians, psychia
trists, nurses and hospital facilities, the physical and men
tal health of America’s civilians shows no indication of a
serious decline, the Office of War Information states In
a comprehensive report on the state of the nation’s health.
It adds, however, a warning from Surgeon General Parran
that our lines against diñase are lightly held, and that
our shortages of health and medical manpower leave us
vulneraole to a breakthrough on many fronts. The shor^
age of doctors continues to l)e more acute in rural areas
than in towns and cities. Sanitation In many nural parts
of the country remains at a low level. Correction of de
ficiencies in the nation’s sanitary equipment would require
constru(;tion of about 11,500 water systems, adequate sew
erage facilities in more than 10,500 communities, safe
water and privies for 5,000,000 rural homes, 400 milk pas
teurization plants in 34 states.
HALF U. S. SPINNING FACILITIES TO BE
CONVERTED TO COTTON YARN
As a further step toward increasing the production
of yanis"^d fabrics needed to meet urg'ent military re^ ~
quirements, WPB has directed the conversion to cotton
yarn production of at least 50 per cent of the country’s
spinning facilities producing spun rayon and similar yarns.
The direction affects all mills operating on the cotton
system and producing spun rayon, cotton-rayon mixed or
other blended or mixed fiber yarn except cotton-wool
blended or mixed yams. It applies to both sale yam and
ntegrated mills. The direction becomes effective on March
26, 1945 for all persons who produce yarn, but no fabrics;
and on April 9,1945 for all persons who produce both yarns .A
and fabrics. ^

Good Care of Bees
Will Triple Honey
Get ready for the transfer of
bees from old fashioned box and
log gums to modern hives at
the beginning of the first Im
portant early spring honey flow,
says Prof. Ross O. Stevens of
the Zoology department at State
college.
He explains that one good col
ony la worth more than a half
dozen mediocre colonies. One
may get a start in bees either by
buying complete coloniea or by
obtaining bees and placing them
in modern hives.
Swarma may oe obtained in
one of three ways, according to
Stevens. Packages ot bees may
be bought from reliable bee
raisers. Second, swarms may be
obtained during the swarming
season from other nearby bee
keepers. Third, bees may be
transferred from old fashioned
gums to modern hives.
Stevens cites several advan
tages of the modern hive; with
removable frames, It Is possible
to make sure that enough honey
Is left for the bees; to find old
queens and replace them with
vlg&rous queens; to regulate the
brood chamber so as to produce
some worker bees and fewer
drones; to control swanning
more effectively; and to take
off surplus’ honey without the
messy job of cutting It out.
With better management of
bees, North Carolina should eas
ily produce three times as much
honey as at present, according
to Stevens. PUractical sugges
tions on Improved beekeeping
may be found in Extension Cir
cular No. 274, A free copy of this

Today Chilean Nitrate is so

bagged at American ports.
Because of its natural origin,
Chilean Nitrate contains in ad

Jciter, Pvt. U.’s wife told him she w.is soing to
liavc a hiiliy. Tlicre wasn't cnounli money «o pny
for medic.ll care nnd hospitalization. Helpless,
Pvt. R. npp;a!ed lo the Ked Cross. In a few days
hi received word that they had assisted his wife in
ipplyiiiy ior cmerBcncy maternity and infant care.
Suppose you w ere w ounded, disabled, job-
Itss and disciiuraBcd? A Marine Private, he was
v/ounded in the South Pacific and discharged for
disability. He went home discouraged at the pros-
pcct of making his living again. Unable to take
up his former trade, in desperation he appealed
to the Red Cross. They put him in touch with
the proper agency-he’s doing swell, now.
Suppose your m other w ere ill and w ith

mother was desperately ill and without money.
He remembered'advice he'd heard and went to
his iled Cross Field Director wiiu requested the
boy’s local chiipter to arrange for care. They did.
Now, an::icty lifted. Seaman T. M. is a better
liahting man. Another example of your Red Cross
in action.
Suppose your son w ere taken prisoner?
Imagine the anxiety ot the parents of Pvt. E. D,,
who had had no word from him in months. Tlie
Red Cross sent a welfare inquiry. And then the
International Red Cross reported that he was
healthy and well, and was receiving regularly the
American Red Cross packages that helped keep up
his spirits. Your money gets the packages to him.

they carried him to the field station and gave him
8 more pints of plasma. Without Jt, he would
have died.
Suppose you’d lest your leg? And you
couldn't bring yourself to tell your family? It
happened to Sgt. J. T, and now his parents were
coming to see him in the hospital. He appealed
to a Red Cross worker to break the news for him.

The Red Cross can’t do this work without your holpl
The actual cases outlined above illustrate just a few of the thousands of ways
in which the Red Cross helps our fighting men—at home and overseas. But
without your help there would be no Red Cross to do this humanitarian work.
For the Red Cross is wholly depcndént on the money that you and other sym
pathetic Americans contribute. And after three years of war, tlie work of your
Red Cross is greater than ever.
Think of the suffering you can alleviate by your contribution—and how proud
you can be of your pan ix; this work. iV^on’t you give all you can?

Adulterated Cocoa
Seized By State
sixty-four thousand pounds of
adulterated cocoa intended for
sale to the housewives of this
State have been removed from
the market by the N. C. Depart
ment of Agriculture and donated
to the Children’s Home In Win
ston-Salem for use as fertilizer,
it Is announced by Dr. E. W. Con
stable, head of the Oepartmen’a
Food Division.
He said that since cocoa con
tained ground cocoa shells, was
diverted for use as fertilizes,
since this type of adulteration
is not permitted in stock food,
“and so was given to the child
ren’s home for the Improvement
of the soli on the grounds.”
The cocoa was manufactured
by the J. B. Robinson Co., of
Cleveland, Ohio, according to
Dr,‘Constable, the major portion
of the seized quantity being
handled by the Brown, Rogers,
Dixon Co„ ot WlnstonSalem.
Other concerns dealing In this
seized product wer^r the S, L. Col
lins Grocery Co„ of Winston-
Salem, the Armfleld Bakery,
Leaksvllle, the Lexington Gro
cery Co., of High Point, the U-
Save-It Store, located In Greens
boro, Watts Cake Co., of High
Point, and Progressive Stores, of
Durham.
All ot the stores handling the
cocoa "cooperated flully” In Its
disposition after the adulteration
had been discovered, explained
Dr. Constable, adding that they
were relmbur.sed by the Ohio
company, “which then abandon
ed the product, preferring not to
come Into North Carolina to de
fend the action."
He reported' that other pro
ducts manufactured by this con
cern which could not be sold
under State food laws have In
cluded a conootlon known as
“Covee", a dubstltute for coffee,
a cocoa substitute, imitation
ketchup, and chocolate syrup.
Eggs .set by U, S. commercial
hatcheries In January were 121
million as compared with llSVa

Farmers Should Buy
Fertilizers Early
A .shortage of trucks and'box
oars for transportation, a short
age ot labor In manufacturing
plants, and shortages In certain
materials all point to a bottle
neck in fertilizer deliveries In the
spring.
“Last year some farmers waited
nntil the last minute to buy their
tertlllzer and then had It del-
jivered on time without the In
convenience of storing It during
the winter,” says Dr. Emerson
Collins, In charge of Extension
agrnonmy at State College. “Re
cords show that growers are not
i buying nearly so much tertlllzer
early as last year and the situa
tion is becoming more alarming
every day.
“The latest information shows
chat quantities of chemical nitro
gen may be about 100,000 tons
of nitrogen short of the July 1
estimate. Production of super
phosphate for July, August, and
September was dlssapolntlng be
cause military requirements were
taking a good portion of the sul
phuric acid supUes. Potash pro
duction appears adequate but
there Is a shortage ot box cars
for moving it to fertilizer plants.
“These factors Indicate that
unless farmers accept delivery of
their fertilizer early, it will be
Impossible for the ‘ industry to
supply the fertilizer on time for
next year’s crops. This does not
mean that everyone should rush
In and buy their fertilizer at
once.
“However, If growers are to be
assured of having their fertilizer
on time, they should discuss their
requirements with their estab-
li.shed dealer and accept delivery
as early as he recommends."

HOW TREATIES ARE RATIFIED;
EXECUTIVE MAY REJECT TREATY
Washington —'Parliamentar
ians notwithstanding, the Sen
ate does not “ratify” a treaty.
With a spat« of treaties bound
to come out of the present w ^,
It Is more than ever important
that Americans realize how
treattes are made, who does rat
ify them, jusl when they do be-
-oome effecUvc, what happens to
them once they are signed, seal
ed, and delivered.
What the Senate has done In
the past and will be asked to do
in the future is to give its “ad
vice and consent" by a two-
thirds majority to treaties the
Executive already has drawn up
with foreign powers. While the
layman may consider “advice
and consent” the equivalent of
ratification, the trained diplo
mat expresses horror at such
confused thinking. It is, actu
ally, the President who ratifies
a treaty, when he signs the docu
ment the Senate has approved.
ExecDtlve May Reject Treaty
But the public should not be
too ashamed of its failure to rec
ognize the niceties of ratifica
tion, since the Senate itself is
equally fuzzy on the subject.
After the Senate has given the
"advice and consent” required
by the Constitution, it rubber
stamps the document ratified.
Actually it only consents to rat
ification.

need to ratify a treaty thé Sen
ate has approved. President The
odore Roosevelt refused to do
so in one instance where amend
ments the Senate had tacked on
to his original treaty did not
please him. However, except in
the most unusual circumstances,
to refuse to do so would be turn
ing down an agreement the Ex
ecutive had negotiated, which
does not make sense.
Also it Is not generally appre
ciated that treaties the Senate
has rejected do not necessarily
expire. Unless returned to the
President, at his request or the
Senate’s decision, a defeated
treaty can remain indefinitely
on the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee calendar. For ex
ample, the St, Lawrence water
way treaty which failed to win
a two-thirds vote still Is “alive”
in commltttee
Changes Alter Urgency
Treaties cat; be returned to the
President without Senate action,
on the Committee’s decision or
the^resldenf.o request. Thus just
prior to the war the original
double-taxation agreement with
Prance, which had been submit
ted to the Seüate. was sent back
to the President because of
changed military conditions.
Later it was resubmitted and has
since been accepted and rati
fied. An example of a treaty or
agreement pulled back by the
President before the Senate got
around to considering it is the
Anglo - American petroleum
agreement recently withdrawn
by President Roosevelt.
While President Thomas Jef
ferson’s action In refusing to
send a couple of treaties to the
Senate (they dealt with commer
cial arrangements with Great
Britain) Is unusual, a President
does not have to send treaties to
the Senate. However, since the
executive branch of the Govern
ment Is the one that draws up an
agreement with a foreign coun
try, there Is little If any point In
the Executive so doing and then
refusing to ask Senate consent.
Political or military conditions
may have arisen between the
time o'f treaty signing and send
ing to the Senate to account for
withholding it
Treaties can rest Indefinitely
on the Senate Committee’s cal
endar. There are several there
that were sent up more than 20
years ago. They will stay there
until acted upon or specifically
withdrawn by the President or
sent back by the Committee.
12 Vital Step«
Treaty making, one quickly
discovers, is neither simple nor
exact. The formalities and nice
ties, the procedures and pro
cesses and International agree
ment must go through are as
coi^pllcated and confusing as
the social protocols that have
governed court procedure and
high society. '
Thus one does not Juat get an
agreement with a foreign coun
try, win Senate approval for it,
and then put It In effect. Oh, no.
There are not just three steps
to it. There are at least 12 Im
portant stepa (this is {ill after
the long process of writing the
agreement is finished) or pit
falls, at any one ol which the
treaty may disappear into ob-
Uvion.
First It must be signed, then
submitted by the Secretary of
State to the President, then sent
by him to the Senate, then re-

ferred by it to Its Foreign Rela
tions Committee, then published
In the Senate's confidential doc
uments, then removed from the
"Injunction of secrecy,” then re
ported by the Committee with
or without amendments to the
Senate.
At this point, the Senate does
or does not give Its “advice and
consent.” If It consents, the
President then ratifies It, after
which ratifications must be ex
changed or deposited. It then
must be proclaimed and finally
registered. Only then has it
reached the end of the trail.
Tips On Setting
Strawberry Crop
Many communities hi North
Carolina are planning to set
strawberries this spring, with
100 to 200 plants for each family
hi the community, so as to pro
vide an abundance of small
fruit and give more variety to
the average diet.
Orders for all plants are pool
ed and shipments are made to
some person who Is centrally lo
cated. County and home agents
of the Extension Service plan to
follow the crops' closely In those
sections ' that are hutltuting
these cooperative project«.
The favored varieties to be
planted aire Massey and Blake-
more, with the Premier and Dor-
sett being used In some sMtlons
of Western Carolina, according
to H. R. Nlswonger, in charge of
Extension horticulture at State
college. Eastern growers will set
not later than March and those
hi the western section during
March and April, after the pe
riod of freezing and thawing has
passed.,
Nlswonger suggests that the
plants be set 2 feet apart, in 3-
foot rows. When the plants ar
rive from the nursery, the roots
should be kept moist by spread
ing the plants and covering them
with wet sacks.
He also suggests that ihe
plants be se< with the crown
level with the soil. When the
plants are set too shallow, the
roots dry out and the plant dies.
If the crown is set too deep and
Is covered with dirt, the plants
do not make good growth and
often die.
The roots need to be spread
In setting the plant. All leaves
showing any signs of leaf spot
diseases should be removed.

FIRST LT. PETER HAIRSTON GETS
BRONZE STAR FOR GALLANTRY
First Lieut. Peter W. Hairston,
Jr., who is with the 2nd Infantry
division in Germany, was award
ed the Bronze Star Medal for
gallantry in action last Dec. 24 in
Belgium. The dlscrlption of the
incident for which he was
awarded the medal follows:
‘‘Hq. Co., 612th TD Bn. was
quartered in Schbolhouse Sour-
i rodt Commune, Belgium. 1st
t. Hairston was in schoolhouse
when the nearby section of High
way N-28 was attacked by
strafing planes. Learning that
at the beginning of the attack
an Army truck driver who had
been on the highway at the time,
was injured , 1st Lt. Hairston left
the cover provided by the school
house, traveled a distance of
approximately one hundred
yards to the injured man and
assisted In removing him from
a ditch at the side of the road
to a passing ambulance. The ini
tial attack had also set fire to
the ammunition in one of the
trucks In bivouac adjacent to
the highway. 1st Lt. Hairston
proceeded to this truck, while
the attack continued, and en
deavored to control the fire with
the extinguisher. When the fluid
in the extinguisher was exhaust
ed, he removed the boxes of am
munition that were still burn
ing from the truck to the ground
where they were ’extingntshed
by T-5 Leslie P. Strack. In his
conduct, 1st Lt. Hairston acted
in disregard of his personal
safety, with gallantry and ex
emplified the best traditions of
the service.”
COUNTY AGENT GIVES ADVICE
FOR PUNTING SPRING GARDEN
At Ft. Meade
Pvt. Charles E. Burgess, son
of Mr. and Mrs. W. E, Bur
gess of Rt. 2, entered service
on Oct. 24, 1944. He trained at
Camp Croft and was recently
stationed’ at Mt. Meade.
By GEO. B. HOBSON,
County Agent
The beautiful spring - like
weather that has been prevalent
for several days has given a large
number of people a fever to
staxt a garden. ^The War Food
Administration tells us that the
need for Victory Gardens will
be greater than ever this year,
lerefore, it is a satisfaction to
people gardening.
Among the vegetables that
should be planted now are: Irish
potatoes, garden peas, carrots,
beets, radish, tendergretn, tur
nips, spinach, onions, a,nd set
cabbage plants. Those garden
ers who got most of these vege
tables planted the last of Jan
uary are Just that far ahead.
Quite often I hear complaints
about getting a stand of carrots.
I have overcome this by plant
ing radish in with the carrots.
The radish will germinate first,
and break the crust which en
ables the carrots to come up.
The radish are ready to use in
a few weeks, and all should be
pulled out of the carrots by May
15.
One of the mistakes many
gardeners make Is to plant the
onion sets too deep. Then later
they pull extra soli around the
onions, which makes them de
velop a large neck. This large
neck type onion is fine for table
use while still young and tender,
but they will not keep when
mature. If you want to grow
onions to keep for later use. one
of the yellow varieties, either
the Ebenezer or Yellow Globe
Danvers, should be selected.
Shallow planting, about 2 Inches,
and light cultural practices
should be used. When the onions
mature, separate the ones with
the large necks, and the ones
that have gone to seed from the
other onions, and use them first
as they will not keep. Store In a
dry, cool place where there is
plenty of ventilation. They may
be tied in bunches and hung up,
and stored in an open shed. Next
fall before freezing weather ar
rives the onions should be re
moved to a warmer storage
place.
We have several bulletins that
contain many valuable sugges
tions on gardens that are free
for the asking.

EASTER SEALS
MAILED MONDAY
The urgent need of voluntary
health and welfare services was
stressed .today by Mrs. Paul Don
nelly In announcing the formal
opening of the annual Easter
seal sale for crippled children.
Seals were mailed to citizens of
Davie county March 12.
The seal sale, which is annu
ally participated in by approx
imately 2,000 county and 'local
units throughout the country,
will close on Easter Sunday.
"Ше Easter seal sale Is an
annual reminder of the social
problem caused not only by the
fact that crippled children grow
up' nnd need emploj-ment, but
also because of the great num
ber of persons who have been
injured either In the army or
In Industry,” Mrs. Domielly said.
Mrs. Donnelly said that recent
government figures indicated
that there are two and one-half
million persons In the country
afflicted with orthopedio handi
caps. She also pointed out that
almost' four million men under
thirty-eight years of age have
been classified as unfit for mil
itary duty.
As evidence of progress, she
said that about eighty per cent
of the nation’s Industries are
now employing disabled people
in Jobs that range from aircraft
manufacture to munitions mak
ing. The federal government has
employed almost 30,000 disabled
men and women in the last two
years in government Industries
and in federal clerical Jobs or
professional positions, she point
ed out.

Harding Greene
Killed In Action
A message was received here
this week from Mrs. Daisy
Greene, who is spending the win
ter in Washington, D. C., stating
that she has received a message
from the War Department that
her youngest jfon, Harding, was
killed in action In Germany on
March 4.
With the crossing of the Rhine by the U. S. First army
at Remagen and the capture of Kuestrin on the Oder river
38 miles northeast of Berlin by thé Russians, everybody is
now trying to guess when the war against Germany will
be over.
Churchill said the other day that one big heave would
do the job. Most observers guess that Berlin may fall by
the end of April and that most of the Heaviest fighting
against Germany will be over by summer.
Hitièr, however, is going to fight to the end. He so
stated the other day, urging Germane to fight to the death
rather than sui lender and become enslaved.
It is not though that there will be any formal ending
of the war against Germany. Various units of the German
armies are expected to surrender from time to time and
Hitler is expected to continue guerrilla warfare from
strongholds in Bavaria and Austria.
CROSSING TUE.RHINE
The seizure of the bridge intact over Remagen was a
spectacular development of the war which was made only
10 minutes before the Germans were ready to blow it up.
Berlin says we- have two armored and two infantry di
visions across a bridgehead five miles deep and 11 miles
wide. The Germans were taken by surprise and have not
yet launched any counterattack, although they have tried
to destroy the bridge by dive bombers.
One correspondent says General Hodges has so much
power across the river now that only a major counter
assault could dislodge it.
While there is a news dimout over most of the western
front where the Allies hold 150 miles along the Rhine, it
is thought that General Eisenhower is making plans for
other crossings of the Rhine north of the Remagen bridge.“
In fact Berlin says many crossings have already been
made by pontoon bridges. The Germans appear to be
expecting the bigg'est crossing in the vicinity of Wesel
where the country across the Rhine is flat and favorable
to open warfare.
FIGHTING ON EASTERN FRONT
Both Hitler and Goebbels are said to have visited the
eastern front. Kuestrin fell to the Russians this week and
Berlin says that six Soviet divisions are now thrusting
towards the capital from bridgeheads west of the Oder.
Other Red forces are only nine miles from Danzig. Berlin
states the Russians are extending their bridgeheads and
getting the Oder crossings out of range of German artillery.
The Oder is the last natural barrier fi-om Berlin.
AIR WARFARE
Allied bombers continue to rake German communica
tions and industries from the Ruhr to the Baltic sea. Essen
Dortmund, Kiel, Berlin, Swinemueifide are a few of the
well-known places that have been plastered.
RAIDS ON JAPAN
For the first time «Tokyo felt America’s air might
when 300 Superforts burned out J5 square miles in the
heart of the city with incendiary bombs and followed two
days with a similar raid on Nagoya, Japan’s great aircraft
production center.
Fighting is still bitter on Iwo Jima but the remain
ing Japs have been split into small pockets on the north
ern end of the island.
The Yanks have invaded Mindanao without much op-
oosition, taken the civic center of Zamboanga and a stra
tegic airfield. The invasion was last Saturday and Min-
danoa is the second largest Island in'Ihe Philippines.

DON’T COMPLAIN -EDUCATE
Some Americana'have complained that England al<
ways gats ahead of the United States In diplomatic en
counters. There may be some truth in the charges, as Eng!^
land puts her diplomats through long periods of train
ing. They are men who understand various sciences, as
well as having learned the practical knack of getting on
with folks. ■
In the past we have done little to train our diplomats,
and the salaries have been such as to make it necessary to
appoint men with private fortunes sufficient to sustain
them in the highly expensive business of being diplomats.
We have selected men for important posts, not only in
diptomatic affairs, but in many other important offices,
upon the basis of the ability to win votes by the back slap
ping methods of politicians. We have even elected men
to high office on the basis of hillbilly music. What can
we expcct with such a method? Is there a business firm,
a successful one, in all the United States, which would
pursue such methods, in selecting managers? The United
States government is a very big busine», and only the
best trained men should be selected for the job of running
It.
MEDALS FOR SIX
The above caption stands at the head of an article
telling af the awarding of medals to a number of peo^rie
who had lost sons in the war. The pictures of the dead
soldiers stood above the article, all of them fine yoimg men.
To those parents the medals will mean something. They
will stand always a symbol of the sacrifices, the conti'ibu-
tion which they and their sons made to freedom, and the
satisfaction of knowing that their sons were brave men
who did not shirk their duty when the call came.
The story and tlie pictures present a great contrast to
trie news item surrounding them. There we have descrip
tions of people complaining about rationing, closing of
night clubs, a threatened coal strike, the account of a
strike in other plants making material for the war effort:.
It is a contrast which throws some of our civilian popu
lation into an unlovely part of the picture. Those fellows
look down In silent protest, their sacrifices crying out
against the fools who complain of night club closing, and
who look upon rationing as a terrible hardship. To what
depths of depravity have people sunk who can read of men
dying on battlefields by the thousands while they view
such minor things as sacrifices.

In lieu ot a program, a helpful

Wo have had occasion to mention recently the fact
of a gradual emergence and establishment of two schools
of thought, rather than two political parties. It remains
to be seen which of the two, or whether either one, will
give support to one or other of them, but their presence
is a fact in our present day history.
For convenience sake we might labor them Capital
and Labor, though the term is not adequate, as these
philosophies criss-cross here, even as they do in politics.
We are familiar with the fact that for many years the
Capitalist group was looked upon with disfavor because
it exerted Its influence through lobbies and other methods
to establish and extend its power. Quite a sizable portion
of society looked upon this with disfavor, and certain sec
tions expressed that disfavor in terms of social and political
action.
Judt now we have the other group rising into power,
and using the same methods to promote its interests and
its power. The curious thing about it is that labor,
strongly organized, falls into the danger of a control with
in itself which is as much of a menace to the rank and
file of labor as the old order was. It must be remembered
that labor leaders have as much of the old instincts
and dedires for profits and control as any other section
of humanity, and it is not surprising to find among them
those who look to the feathering of their nests instead of
the interests of the workers.
Both groups seem to be afraid of government inter
ference; yet both seek governmental approval and back
ing; The truth of the matter is that if these two groups
cannot cooperate In a truly Free Enterprise there is noth
ing left except government control, if the interests of the
whole people are tp be protected. So, if we have Free En
terprise and free governmental control, it remains for
the individuals making up these groups to learn how to
work together, to cooperate instead of fighting. Govern
ment is not going to force itself into social and economic
affairs unless the welfare of the whole depends upon its
intervention. There must be order in society before it
can give justice, prosperity, and security. If we, as a
free people, can create that order by cooperation we need
have no fear of governmental control. It is just common
sense for the various groups to seek and maintain a unity
among themselves.

Warning Issued On
Hybrid Corn Seed
There is a tremendous differ
ence In com hybrids. A well
adapted strain Is an excellent in
vestment, while an unadapted
strain is an exceedingly poor In
vestment and one that is almost
sure to bring loss when compared
with standard varieties ot com.
Dr. Paul Harvey, In charge of
the corn breeding work for the
Agricultural Experiment Station
at State College, points out that
in their tests superior com hy
brids have averaged about 30 per
cent better yislds than standard
varieties, while poorly adapted
hybrids have averaged about 23
per cent less than the varieties
generally grown on the farm.
"In addition to less grain, these
poor hybrids had poorer quality
garln, more lotten kernels, and
more weevil damaged kernels,”
Dr. Harvey says.
He points out that some North
Carolina growers are making the
mistake of ordering corn hybrids
from other states by mail with
out first obtaining information
as to yields and quality ia this
state. The iact that a hybrid
gives excellent yields in Indiana
is no guarant'ie that it will prove
profitable in North Carolina.
In the northern part of the
state, some growers who have
lieen unable to obtain hybrid
seed have gone over Into Virginia
to purchase seed. Recently one
grower in the northwestern sec
tion of North Carolina spent $915
for corn hybrid seed of a strain
that repeated tests in this state
have shown to give much lower
yields and poorer quality than
can be obtained with standard
varieties.
"Play sate with your 1945 com
crop and plant a good standard
variety, If you cannot find seed
of one of tho good hybrids re
commended for your area of the
state,” says Dr, Harvey.

ABOVE-CEILINO SALES COST AMERICAN FAMILIES
BILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY
“ *OPA Administrator Bowles says: “We estimate that
above celling sales cost American families $1,000,000,000
a year. It’s made up of the pennies, dimes and dollars
shoppers paid because they ‘didn’t care’ or-‘couldn’t be
bothered’ to complain, and that grocers charged because
they had fallen down on the Job of price compliance. Food
represents 40 per cent of the average family’s budget,
That’s why wé feel that everyone—food retailers and their
suppliers, consumers and community representatives who
serve on local War Price and Rationing Boards will want
to back the Food Price Compliance Program.” Present
OPA plans call for a three-way drive by grocers, consum
ers and OPA to bring about more effective price control
of all foods sold at retail in the groceries and meat markets
of the country.
GLOBAL AIR EVACUATION SYSTEM
SPEEDS Wounded y a n k s hom e
Nearly 800,000 wounded, sick and Injured American
servicemen have been transported by airplane from battle
zones in all parts of the world in the two and a half years
since air evacuation became an accepted part of the mill-,
tary medical program, the Office of War Information says
in a comprehensive report on air evacuation for our wound
ed servicemen abroad.
One out of five American war casualties who return
ed to this country last year came by plane. They totaled
43,000—a number 10 times as great as the number brought
home by plane in 1943.
Military authorities today are enthusiastic about air
evacuation and term it one of the five greatest life-saving
measures of modem military medicine. Without air evacu
ation, reported the Air Surgeon General of the Army Air
Forces, “neither sulfanilamide, plasma nor surgical skill
could have availed to save the lives of thè woimded.”
Not only does air evacuation provide the speediest
means of removing the wounded from battle zones to rear
areas, but it has proved its value loglstlcally, the Army
told OWI. The same planes that fly the wounded out of
battle areas, have flown in laden with vital supplies—food,
munitions or medical necessities.
In the fighting zones It is likely that the roads are
limited in number and capacity, and that rail lines are
either non-existent or consist of one-track lines. By mov
ing patients out over these surface lines, sometimes it is
impossible to move supplies in. Air evacuation relieves
the roads so that there is no interruption in the flow of
needed supplies.
Air evacuation has also been endorsed because of its
strategic value to the military commander in battle. It is
reported to have contributed to the success of every major
land offensive involving American forces in this war. The
success of a campaign, it is said, sometimes may hinge on
an army’s ability to evacuate its non-effectives. In Tarawa,
for instance, thè retention of the wounded on the Island
would have hampered military operations. In New Guinea,
where the only other form of evacuation was by foot or on
pack animals over the Owen Stanley Mountains, all casu
alties were moved by air.
The Army, Navy and Marines all use air evacuation
today. The Troop Carrier Commands of the Army Air
Forces transport wounded from battle zones to rear areas
of safety, and the Air Transport Command flies those who
are returned to this country. The Naval Air Transport
Service carries out a similar program for the Navy.
Both the Army and Navy maintain schools where the
medical flight personnel is trained, and recently a group
of 24 Navy nurses was selected for the first class of the new-
ly-«stabllshed Navy School for Air Evacuation, Alameda,
Calif. The AAF School of Aviation Medicine is located at
Randolph Field, Texas, where a new class of 10 nurses
starts every three weeks. Each group is given an inten
sive nine week’s course.
HOW to GET $5,000 FROM $37.50 A MONTH
"If you want $5,000 in 10 years, just start investing
$37.50 in War Bonds each month and you’ll have that
Five Thousand when 10 years roll by,” says M. L. Pred-
more. Chief of the Agricultural Section of the U. S. Treas
ury’s War Finance Division.
He especially recommends this method of saving for
the farmer who wants to build up an investment that will
assure funds for the education of the children, or money
for worth-while improvements.
To i>e exact the accumulation would total $4,998 in
10 years. If $112.50 is invested quarterly, or $225 each six
months, it will add up to the same in the end, since the
increment on ail “E” Bonds is reckoned on a six month’s
basis after the first year. These larger investments at
longer intervals will suit most farmers better.

Q. Is It best to press a garment
just after you make it?
A. “Press as you sew," say Ex
tension home economists at State
College, "Success or failure in
making a garment often depends
on the way-It Is pressed during
the making as well as after com
pletion. Press seams immediately
after stitching, ratlier than after
dress Is completed. Press aU
seams up from bottom and in
towards center of the gaiment.
Press darts on Ught fabrics to
one side, either up or towards
center. On heavy fabrics, alaah
darts and press open. Lift gathers

RED CROSS MUST MEET QUOTA
TO HELP RETURNING WAR VETS
J. H. Thompson, chairman of
the 194S Red Cross War Fund
•drive for Davie county, said here
yesterday that the Davie coun-
^ chapter meet its quota of 53,-
300 If the chapter is to continue
Its vital service to the return-
ins wax veterans.
“The need for local Red Cross
services continues to grow,"
Thompson declared. “In many
respects tihe Davie county Red
CTO.SS chapter's responsibilities
will increase as more veterans
teturn from the war fronts,
l^uids to continue these impor
tant programs for post - war
armies of occupation are essen
tial.”
Stressing the need for Red
Cross services to returning light
ing men, and their 'families, he
also pointed out that the regular
peace time program of the local
Red Cross is continuing to ex
pand.
"Our responsibiUty to our
fighting men will not cease with
their return home,” he as
serted.'"The need for I^d Cross
assistance in filing claims for
government benefits, for pro
viding temporary aid, for g;fid-
ance In' settling back Into civil
ian life, and for information con
cerning community opportuni
ties and resources has Intensi
fied a great deal. These are
pprime obligations of Davie
«ounty to Its returning heroes.
"Moreover, disaster prepared
ness, community health Improve
ment, and the many other sig
nificant programs of the Red
Cross play a role of growing im
portance in helping us all live
more complete, happy lives. For
all these reasons, each person in
Davie county should support
Che 1945 Red Cross War Fund
to the fullest extent possible.”
TJiompBon announced that the
drive all over the county was
progressing according to sched
ule. He said that he didn't think
there was any doubt about the
county reaching its quota. Al
ready several of the districts'
have announced virtual subscrip
tion of their quotas. He was high
in praise of the district chair
men and their workers all over
the county tor the fine manner
!n wliich they have carried out
ilje work.

Victory Gardens Are
As Important As Ever
Not long |go, War Pood Ad
ministrator Jones said . that
every one who grows a garden
serves his country as well as
himself. That means home gar
dens will be as Important this
year In providing food to win
the war as they've been since
we got into the fight.
I heard a man griping the
other day. "Why,” he said . . .
"this business about us needing
more food is a lotta stuff.”
The fellow he was with sort
of questioned htoi, so he went
on. "They talked about grow
more in '44 . . . grow more In
'44, Well . . . I grew more In
'44. I had a garden. Then what
happened? They took the points
off most canned vegetables
about the time my wife start
ed thinking about putting up
what I’d grown. She didn’t like
It a bit, She told me we don’t
hafta grow our own food. There’s
Ine Jc^nson, Jack and Robert
SpUlman of Mocksville and A.
T. Head, Tommie Ridenhour,
Robert Munday of Cooleemee.
plenty of It tor aole.’*
That’s what he ,said. And H
sounds almost reasonabl«
doesn’t it? But it’s not. Not by
a long shot.
I wonder why the man sup
posed point values could be
taken off most canned vege
tables. Ouess he didn’t realize
that he was partly responsible.
The amount of .home gardening
and home canning done last year
and the year before helped make
It possible to let everybody get
all the canned vegetables they
wanted during this past fall and
up to now.
We don't like rationing our
food. We’d rather not do It. And
canncd vegetables were ration
ed In the first place because
they were scarce. We’ve got to
keep our supply of them up If
we’re going to get our vegetable
supplies ration free.
Another thing. A recent sur
vey made by the Department of
Agriculture shows that toma
toes were the most popular veg
etable with home gardeners last
year. They were found in al
most every gairden In Uw coun
try. Naturally a whale of a lot
of ’em were canned at home.
And I’ll bet not a woman who
put up tomatoes la^ season Is
sorry she did It Because I know
and you know that canned to
matoes are one of our scarcest
and most vital food^ now.
But enough about canned
home grown vegetables. Let’s
look at gardening from the fresh
food angle.
Did you know tliat last year
. . over forty per cent of our
national fre ^ vegetable supply
came from home gardens? It
did. Victory gardeners produced
over forty per cent of the fresh
vegetables we ate last year. But
can you remember any time
when the nation as a whole had
too much of those fresh market
truck crops? Of course you can^t.
We didn’t have too much. We
needed all the fresh vegetables
grown in 1944. And we’re going
to need as much and more this
coming year too.
You’ve heard General Forrest’s
explanation of his winning tac
tics. "You’ve gotta get thar fust
with Uie most men.” In modern
warfare . . . the wording has
been changed a little to getting
there first with the most men
and supplies . . . but the princi
ple still holds. It’s still good tac
tics to get there first with the
most. It’ll win the battle.
As for winning the war , . .
well . . . to do that-. . . we^ve
got to hang on the longest. ’The
side that can last fifteen min

Germany’s western front has received another stun
ning blow and practically all of the Nazi resistance west
of the Rhine, has ended, freeing all of French territory
except a few scattered channel ports.
The U. S. seventh and third armies have joined In
the Saarland, Germany’s second largest Industrial area,
cutting off the Saar and Palatinate and trapping an en
emy force estimated as high as 80,000. Many Germans
are now surrendering without a struggle.
On the northern end of the western front the Allies
are massing for an assault on the Rhine.
East of the Rhine the Remagen bridgehead has been
widened to 24 miles, despite the fact that main span of
the bridge, 400 feet long, fell into the Rhine a few days
ago as a result of enemy artillery fire and constant strain.
Pontoon bridges were aiding In getting men and equip
ment across.
FIGHTING IN EAST
Stettin has been laid open to final assault by the Riis<
sians by their capture of Altdamm, 70 miles northeast of
Berlin. Berlin says that 200,000 Russians, In a new of*
fensive in northwestern Hungary, have swept to within
58 miles of the Austrian frontier.
Many observers think the time is near when both the
Russians and the Allies in the east will begin their last
long "big heave” to reach Berlin. Moscow hints the time
is near and that the Allies will meet soon in Germany.
AIR WARFARE . ' '
The air war against Germany continues in full fury,
Berlin for instance, being hit for 29 consecutive days or
nights. General Eisenhower has warned CJerman civilians
and foreign workers to flee 17 major Ruhr cities-to escape
Allied bombardment. German troops and civilians flee
ing from the Saar have had a severe mauling, leaving
mile after mile of burning vehicles and bodies.
FIGHT AGAINST JAPAN
Admiral Nimitz announces that American carrier
planes caught the Jap fleet in its inland sea lair between '
Kyushu and Shikoku on the south and the tail of Honshu
island on the north. They damaged 15 to 17 battleships
and carriers, sinking or damaging 13 merchantmen and
destroying 475 planes.
Our fliers are now using Iwo Jima for attacking Japan
and Panay island, third largest of the Philippines, has
been invaded by our forces against light resistance. The
airdrome at Iloilo, capital city with an excellent port, has
been seized.
The Government needs and asks its citizens in this
172hd week of the war to:
1. Retread, recap and repair every worn and usable
tire to avoid a serious breakdown of automobile transporta- -
tion.
2. Join your neighbors now in locating vacant lots for
commiuilty gardens. ' Beginning March 26, applications
for extra gas for travel necessary to cultivate Victory gar
dens will be accepted by your ration board.
3. Fill one of the 2,100 essential jobs in 50 war plants
manufacturing rockets, which are needed in far greater
quantities to hasten victory.

lOBACCO EXPERT GIVES TIPS ON
FERTILIZER FOR BEST YIELD
Palelgh — The fact that to
bacco - setting time Is not far
away — and the fact that the
market price for tobacco has not
differentiated between good and
poor offerings during the past
two or three years does not
mean that the farmer should
neglect quality. The ideal is to
make all the tobacco possible
to the acre and still maintain
quality, according to E. O. Moss,
assistant director in charge of
the Tobacco Experiment Station
at Oxford.
In a recent Interview prepar
ed for State Department of Ag
riculture publications, Moss said:
"Different soil types and dif
ferent fertility levels should be
considered by each Individual
before he decides on the amount
OP grade of fertilizer to be used
and the time of application.”
'In Ihis opinion, better results
will be secured on heavy or clay
loam soils if all the fertilizer Is
applied before .transplanting. On
very light sandy soils, best re
sults will be gained by two—and
in a few Instances three—appli
cations of fertilizer.
"All the fertilizer -that the
plant will utilize economically
should be used Mils year,” said
Moss, pointing out ithat if two
or more applications are made,
the time of the second Is very
important and should be effect
ed immediately after the first
cultivation, which usually occurs
about 20 days after transplant
ing. If there is a third applica
tion ,thls should come about 10
days after the second.
"Too much .phosphorus causes
tobacco to ripen too fast and It
does not have time to mature
properly and fill out; but too
much nitrogen grows tobacco
with a big frame, larger fibers,
arid poor color,” asserted Moss.
He recommended that more
phosphorus be used on heavier,
more fertile soils than on those
which are sandy and not so fer
tile. If properly mixed with the
soli so as not to ,Injure the stand,
potash is "almost always profit
able,” and as much as 20 pounds
of magnesium to the acre may
be used on all bright tobacco
land.
Moss said that "it would seem
wise” for all fertilizer manufac
turers to put as much as two
per cent magnesia in .tobacco
fertilizers. The calcium and sul
phur are usually supplied in suf
ficient quantities for all prac
tical purposes from the super
phosphate. Chlorine should be
restricted to a maximum of
three per cent, with two per
cent sufficient in most cases.
This element should "always be
used with caution.
The following .were Moss’ gen
eral recommendations for “a
good mixture” for tobacco as
outlined In the Interview;
Thirty to forty pounds of ni
trogen to the acre; 60 to 100

THE PRESIDENT’S REPORT TO THE NATION
On his return to Washington from the Crimean con
ference President Roosevelt made his report to congress,
and to the nation. It was a simple report minus oratory
or dramatics. But it did set forth some real progress
towards the peace of the world, and it was received by the
vast majority of Americans as a hopeful step towards
peace. The president made it clear that the responsi
bility for action rested up6n the congress, and finally,
with the American people. Let us hope that this time
the American people will not suffer a few disgruntled
people to destroy the great hope in the hearts of the world’s
millions of people. The people of America must let their
representatives know that they want earnest effort to
wards peace—not the gratification of personal ambitions
or hope of personal revenge. This is not a party war, and
not even a nationalistic war—it is a war of peoples that
they might have a world in Which they shall live in neigh-
borllness, prosperity and peace.
The Charlotte Observer in a long and sensible edi
torial, presented a fair appraisal of the president’s report,
concluding with these significant words:
“Americans who are worthy of their traditions and
heritages will accord the President their full appreciation
of the vast efforts he has been making in this sublime
cause and those who are wise and faithful to their re
sponsibilities as citizens of this great and incomparably
strong republic will follow him on into final triumph for
the reality of a future for human society clransed of the
curse of the Insanity of war.”
BLITZ IN REVERSE
We recall that at the beginning of the war, when Ger
many, after twenty years of building up a great war ma
chine, started out upon the conquest of the European na
tions; and, these nations were totally unprepared to meet
the might of Germany. Those were days when Germans
strutted. They introduced the world to" a form of all-out
war in lightning-like attacks whlth they called Blitzkrieg.
They destroyed town and villages, and drove millions of
helpless people Into exile, and murdered many millions
more. The German heel was indeed trampling in arro
gance upon the peoples of Europe. They moved without
serious halt until they reached Stalingrad, where the gal
lant Russians, In a battle which won the admiration of
the world, succeeded in halting the Germans. With the
help of the United States, Russia and England began to
build up their forces; America joined with them and the
tide was slowly turned. But with that turning the Allipd
armies kept it going, and today Germany Is getting some
of the medicine which she gave to others. Her cities and
towns are being destroyed, and her armies are being beaten.
Fortunately for Germany, the Allies have not reached
the point of depravity reached by the Nazis. The Ger
man people will not receive the brutal treatment which
the Nazis Imposed upon other peoples, though they must
suffer the consequences, of a war which tlaey began. There
will be some people who will now begin “Sob slsterlng"
about the plight of the German people, but it Is only jus
tice and only common sense that people remember what
the Germans did, and to realize what the Nazis are. The
leaders in Germany must be punished. That the Allies
will administer justice with mercy can be taken for grant
ed. But there must be mercy shown to other peoples,
and it will be no mercy if we forget to do justice In dealing
with the brutal Nazis who plunged the world into war.
Germany must be made incapable of starting another
war.
BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS—AND NIGHT CLUBS
It is not so much our objection to night clubs, as
the attitude which so many people took towards their
closing. It is the relative Importance which so many
gave to them In view of what eleven million men In the
armed forces are undergoing. It is a sort of symbol of
the attitude of so many people towards food rationing,
and the Imposition of small restrictions. If such people
have a heart and something which passes for a mind they
should take a look at the Western Front, and the men on
Iwo Island. Let them look at doctors arid nurses going
without sleep for four days and nights, working with
wounded and dying men. There are men coming in by
the thousands with arms, legs, or other parts of their
bodies shot away; some are blinded, everywhere there Is

stamp, and much of it was used for ordinary household
purposes. This year’s total sugar supply is smaller than it
was in 1044. If any over-issuance of canning sugar were
allowed, it would have to come out of the amount allowed
for other home use. In 1945 no stamps will be validated for
canning sugiar. Housewives will be given sugar coupons
for home'canning by their local boards. Each housewife’s
home canning sugar allotment will be based on the amount
of canning she did last year and the amount she plans to do
this year. She will be allowed up to a maximum'of 20
pounds per person, or 160 pounds to a single family, even
though the family may contain more than eight persons.
BUTTER SET-ASIDE INCREASED
FOR APRIL AND MAY
The War Food Administration has fixed the butter
set-aside quota (amount of butter put aside for govern
ment purchase) for April at 40 per cent of production,
and for May at 55 per cent of production. Previously, dur
ing February and March, the set-aside percentage were 20
and 25 per cent respectively. Efforts are being made to
maintain butter production and to keep the available civil
ian supplies flowing into trade channels on a fairly even'
monthly basis. During April and May quantities of cream
ery butter for civilians will be about 80,000,000 pounds аз
compared with an average of about 82,000,000 pounds dur
ing February and March.
NON-HIGHWAY GASOLINE INCREASE
FOR SECOND QUARTER OF 1945 v
The nation’s food growers will get extra gasoline for
non-highway use during the second quarter of 1945, says
PAW. Petroleum Administrator Harold L. Ickes has an
nounced the allocation of 1,276,000 barrels of automotive
gasoline a day for U. S, civilian consumption in the second
quarter of 1945, comprising the months of April, May and
June. Compared with the quantity of gasoline made avail
able to civilians in the corresponding quarter of 1944, the
new allocation is 19,000 barrels a day greater, the addition
al fuel being assigned to the_,War Food Administration
for farm use. Commenting on this, Deputy Administrator
Davies said: “The quantity of gasoline required for non
highway farm use alvmys rises sharply in the second quar
ter to provide fuel for spring plowing, cultivating and
planting, and we have provided for that increase as usual.
This year we were asked for an unusually large quantity,
with the explanation that it was hoped to enlarge the
productive farm acreage of our country by about 10,000,-
000 acres. There has been an Increase In the number of
tractors added 'to the nation’s farm equipment, and we
are informed that plans have been worked out to run all
tractors 20 per cent more hours per day.
NO RESTRICTION ON ROTENONE CONTENT
OF 1945 INSECTICIDES
Rotenone supplies for the current crop year (October
i944 through September 1945) will be approximately the
same as for the previous year, WPB says. Shipping facili
ties for importing the unprocessed rotenone from South
America still constitute a problem. However, supplies of
rotenone for essential commercial, farm, home and victory
garden.insecticide requirements are expected to be favor
able, according to WPB. There are no restrictions on the
permissible rotenone content of insecticides during the cur
rent agricultural year, as the result of a policy adopted
jointly with the War Food Administration, iWPB pointed
out. This policy Is Intended to enable manufacturers to
offer finished insecticides having a rotenone content nec
essary for adequate crop protection.
RATIONED FOOD ALLOTMENTS FOR
INDUSTRIAL USERS TO BE REDUCED
With civilian supplies of meats, sugar, butter and can
ned fruits and vegetables at the lowest point since the
war began, OPA has announced two actions designed to
bring industrial use of rationed foods into line with these
smaller supplies. - Industrial users include bakers, man
ufacturers of beverages, pharmaceuticals, fruit spreads,
and manufacturers of other unrationed products in which
rationed foods are used as Ingredients. The two actions
are: (1) Beginning April 1, 1945, the allotments of all ra
tioned foods for most industrial users will be reduced; (2)
Between March 16,1945 and June 15,1945, physical inven
tories of rationed foods and ration buying power (in the
form of checks, coupons, etc.) in excess of adequate work
ing Inventories will be taken up. The action thiis an
nounced is the third of three steps planned last December.
The first was taken on December 26, when the backlog of
old, unneeded rations stamps in consumer hands was taken
up and all consumers were put on an equal basis as the
year began. The second step came on March 6, when pro
vision was made for taking up the excess “spending power”
of restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and other Institutional
users.

G ofood farmers—for over a hun
dred years—have hauled natural
nitrate for their crops. Since
1830, when the first nitrate cargo
arrived from Chile, millions of
tons have been used on American
farms . . . 3,300,000 tons since
the outbreak of the war. This
year’s supply of Chilean Nitrate
depends largely on ships avail-
able to bring it in. li everyone
takes hia share prompHy
when offered, at least 850,000
tons can be supplied for this
year’s crops.
While some nitrate normally
goes into mixed fertilizer, most
of it is applied direct to the crop
—top dressing ibr grains and
grasses, side dressing for corn
and cotton. Direct application
to fruit and vegetable crops is
vital to yield and quality.
Chilean Nitrate is quick-act
ing inorganic nitrogen. It is im
mediately soluble in normal soil
moisture. It is all available to
the crop. But beyond all this,
Chilean Nitrate is natural.. ■
the only natural nitrate In
the world. Because of its natural
origin, Chilean Nitrate of Soda
contains, in addition to large
proportions of nitrogen and so
dium, small amounts of boron,
iodine, manganese, copper-34
different elements in all—many
of which are known to be essen
tial to healthy plant growth.
Good farmers the world over
have learned by experience to
prefer Natural Chilean Nitrate
of Soda. .In experiments, test
plots and in the field, it has
demonstrated its worth, It is the
safe, sure nitrate for your crops.

Each sheet covers an area of 32 square feet and this speeds the
work of application. The material is flreproof, which adds a valuable BBfety factor. It also is weatherproof, ratproof and termite-proof.Another reason for the popularity of this new siding treatment is the fact that asbestos boards need 1)0 painting or other preservative treatment. This practically eliminates maintenance costa.Before a re-siding job is begun, the farmer should make sure that foundations are in good repair,
that rotted timbers are removed

DAVIE COTTON GROWERS OFFERED
NEW FEDERAL CROP INSURANCE
The new Federal all-risk crop
insurance program now being
offered /Davie county cotton
growers is an Important help
in stabilizing the economy of
communities, according to J. N.
Smoot, chairman of the Davie
County AAA committee.
"The new insurance program
not only offfirs_lndlYldual grow
ers protection against the un
avoidable hazards to cotton
growing, but helps to keep the
community in a healthy condi
tion as well,” he declared.
"We all remember the terrible
droughts of 1934 and 1936. Many
farmers were completely wiped
out during those years, and those
who managed to keep going had
little or no crop to sell. As a re
sult, they couldn’t meet mort
gage payments and other obli
gations. They couldn’t buy ma
chinery, furniture, clothing, or
other necessities.
“Whole communities suffered
from these crop losses,” he add
ed, “but with crop insurance it
needn’t have happened. Crop
insurance would have protected
crop Investments and would
have absorbed the economic
shock to the communities.
The present program offers
cotton growers a choice of cov
erage of 50 to 75 per cent of
their average farm yields, and
protects against such unavoid
able hazards to crops as drought,
floods, storms, frost, wildlife,
snow, excessive rainfall, hail, fire,
lightning, wind, plant disease,
winterkill and insects.
The insurance program is ad
ministered locally by the AAA,
and growers have until April 10,
1945 to apply.
Any of the following will be
glad to help the grower with his
insurance and take his contract:
Bruce Turner, J. H. Robert
son, Mrs, Pansy Koontz, C. W.
Beck, R. A. Poster, L. O. Mary

, Germany may last only a few weeks longer. Opti
mism about the end of the war in Europe is more preva*

When Germany will be overcome depends on two
things. First, getting supplies across the Rhine and Ger
man resistance. The Allies need a railroad bridge to carry
heavy supplies in adequate quantity. That bridge Is not
erected but it is expected that a new record will be set
by engineers. German resistance so far has beén only
light to moderate everjnwhere across the Rhine except in
the north where the British and Canadian troops are lo
cated. Correspondents tell of Allied armies racing at will
across Germany. ,
SEVEN ARMIES ACROSS RHINE
General Eisenhower hbs seven armies that are now ,
across the Rhine. He has 1,250,000 men facing the Ger
mans. General Patton is on the loose again with his
famed Third army, operating under a security blackout.
Last German reports showed him 145 miles inside the
Reich. General Hodges’ First army broke out of the Re
magen bridgehead and are reported to have raced 120
miles from that area. General Patch has sent his Seventh,
army 32 miles across the Rhine. General Simpson and his
Ninth army are striking at the heart of the Ruhr, only
three miles from, Essen. General Dempsey’s British Sec
ond army, in the north has driven 30 miles across the
Rhine against strong resistance.
“IKE’’ SAYS NOT OVER
General Eisenhower announced that the German
armies east of the Rhine had been whipped but he does
not think it is all over. He expects the Germans to form
a new line nearer Berlin and he also says that our ad
vance is limited by the amount of supplies we can get to
the front. That means the construction of railways and
railway bridges over the Rhine.
Eisenhower also state that nobody knows what the Gfer-
mans will do and that they are trying to do it. He assert
ed there would be no negotiated peace, only uncondi
tional surrender which would be imposed on the Ger
mans.
Whenever the Germans stop all resistance the leader
of the Allied forces said he would give out the news,
somewhat an explanation of the rumor that spread thru--
out this country on Monday that the Germans had quit.
It appears that the Allied armies have been able to
link up on a 150-mile front. Just where the various
armies are is not known because they have moved so fast
nobody has been able to determine their location accu
rately and they are operating under a partial security news
blackout. German reports place Patton about 100 miles
in'Germany, nearing Nuernberg.
The Allies have .taken 250,000 prisoners in the west
since March 1 and it is estimated they are now surrender
ing at the rate of 10,000 daily.
The Rhine crossings have been made at a casualty
cost for smaller than was thought possible.
T h e historic push into the Ruhr across the Rhine be
gan last Saturday when the British Second and the U. S.
Ninth, followed by the First Airborne army, stormed across
the river barrier from landing craft similar to those used
on the Normandy's beaches. The airborne army, 40,000
men, was the largest operation In military history, hav
ing a fleet of 1,500 transports and gliders 500 miles long.
The greatest air blows of history aided the Invasion

. KATE SMITH asked
to write this message
on Saving Used Fats!
“The help ot every woman ia needed in saving
used /ata ior hundreda of battlefield and home-
front eaaentials, Bui some of ua don’t know all
the H-ays we can do it. Here are a few pointa I've
found helpful"—Kate Smith
MANY WOMEN SAY: “But I never have fata left over."
Certainly It’s good economy to re-use your fats... but there’s always
some left over even after that...and that little is more important
than you can imagine. Only one tablespoonful of used fat will help
make 5 machine-gun bullets. So there just ean’t ever be too little
to aavel Come on, everybody, scrape your broiling pan, your
roaster, skillet. Save meat trimmings and scraps of fat left on plates.
OTHERS TELL ME: “But m y fata are often too dark to turn
in," It doesn’t make a mite of difference how dark or blackened
...or what smelly things like onion or fish you’ve cooked in your
fat. Every drop of it will help make parachutes, synthetic rubber,
Boaps for the fighting and war fronts. Don’t feel ashamed to hand
it in to your butcher. If you save every bit of fat you possibly can,
you’re doing a job to be proud ofl ,
THEN YOU HEARl "But what sort of container will! use?"
Any kind of tin can will do. The next time you open a can of fruit
or juice or soup or vegetables,, save it. But please don’t use glass
...it almost always breaks and makes the fat difficult to salvage.
When the can is full, take it to your butcher. For every pound,
.you’ll get 2 red points. If you have any difficulty disposing of your
fats, call your Home Demonstration or County Agent,

Bert Loses the War
Single-Handed
Bert Cliilder’s house burned
down last week, nnd the only
good thing that canio out of It
was it cured him of swearing.
Bert Just couldn’t think of
•words to fit the occasion, so ho
just gave up.
Bert ndmlts It was his ,own
fault. Stnrtoa with n field fire
which ho thought ho had under
control, nnd when ho turned his
linck n minuto for a breathing
siioll, tlio tiro sprung up twice as
flcrco. By tho time the flronion
arrived, thoro wasn't much that
thoy could do.
From where I sit, there’s a
moral in Bert’s experience. A lot
of us feel we’ve got the fires of
this war under control... that
WG can relax a little, maybe let
up on buying bonds, donating
blood, or fighting inflation.
Just like Bort lost his fight
ngnlnst tho flro, wo can lose this

KEEP AN EYE ON CONGRESS
The American people must keep an eye on the con
gress and not permit another few "wilful men” to thwart
the will of thé American people, and render vain the suf
fering and sacrifices of eleven million of our soldier boys.
We must recall that one senator wrecked the League of
Nations, as far as America was concerned. He confided
to one, of his colleagues that he intended to kill it, not by
an open attack, but by reservations—and kill it he did.
There are some men in this present congress who are plan
ning on that same sort of strategy to kill American par
ticipation in a world order which does have some real
promise of making for peace. The people must insist upon
their representatives giving support to world cooperation.
PALE OPTIMISM
Ever since the war started there have been those in
America, and the number is by no means small, who have
tried to wave off the serious nature of the war by predict
ing an internal collapse in Germany. They were sure of
It a few weeks after we entered the war; they have con
stantly kept up their predictions, even though all of the
facts were against them. It must have afforded Hitler and
his gang much amusement and satisfaction, as they were
in a better position to judge about an internal collapse.
Those people seem not yet to realize that American casual
ties are nearing the million mark, to say nothing of the
millions lost by Russia and England. Hardly had our
troops made one crossing of the Rhine than those false
optimists came out with all sorts of speculation on the
early collapse of Germany. Such easy optimism gives
hope to Hitler. Our soldiers who do the fighting know
what a grim business it is, and they are not under illusions
as to early collapse. They know that it means fighting
of the hardest sort, and that many lives will be lost.
These pale optimists ride a very pale hoirse, but to them
it is a gallant steed. It is from the rank of those who áre
least effected by the war, and who lúake the least sacri
fices in winning it, who are so sure of early victory.
DECADENT DEMOCRACIES!
In 1937, when Joseph Davies, at that time Ambassa
dor to Russia, was passing through Berlin. He wrote in
his diary, as reported in "Mission to Moscow,” a clipping
from a German newspaper which went like this: “We ex
pect a change of epoch, a total breakup of political and
social ideologies. Democracies are done for. They are to
day consciously or unconsciously, nothing more than cen
ters of infection, carriers of baccllli, and handyman for
Bolshevism. That is one group; we are the other. Future
turns away collectivism from the uncertain reaction of
the masses. Democracies—they afe like sand, like shift
ing sand. Our political ideal is rock-granite peaks.”
We wonder what the Germans are thinking now about
dying democracies. With the whole German people driven
into their homeland and surrounded by the victorious
armies of the Democracies It does not present a picture of
dead Democracies, and a rock-granlte Germany. From
Egypt and North Africa, through Sicily and Italy; through
France, Belgium, Holland, and now Germany itself the
Germans have had opportunity to fepl the might of those
Democracies at which she sneered so contemptuously a
few years ago. That "rock-granlte” Is crumbling IJke half-
baked brick, and the brutal and vain glorious Germany
will have further reasons to revise her evaluation of the
Democracies. Until recently the Nazis have been able
to make the German people believe that myth of Ger
man invincibility, but they must be doing some thinking
as the Americans take Cologne, and other large German
towns. The might of Allied air powpr Is dally demon
strating the health and strength of the Democracies. All
in all, the Germans must by now be coming to the con
cision that it is a rather lively corpse.
BEING TREATED

and Mrs, J, E. Kllenburg of Cpol-

lowing a recurrence of malaria

Hitler from making a final stand in southern Germany

PROGRAM TO PROVIDE LONGER WEAR FOR SHOES
WPB annoimces an intensified program for the con
servation of shoe leather and for sole leather treatment
to provide longer wear. The sole treatment program,
which has received wide support from the shoe manufac
turers, will be extended to retailers and consumers in
order to assure their understanding and cooperation. The
retailers and salesmen, as well as the public, will be in
formed of the extra value of shoes with soles treated with
oil, wax or equivalent materials. Tests have shown that
such treatment prolongs the life of shoe soles substanti
ally. The program will cover all types of shoes adaptable
to sole leather treatment, since stress previously had been
placed largely on men’s work and dress shoes. Methods
of treatment of women’s shoe soles for use in the cement
ed type of women’s shoes are the subject of research in
the conservation program, and important results are ex
pected, WPB said.

Martha Masop, 15 - year - old
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. P. H.

the transportation problem In
delivering her newspaper route
here. She rides a horse.
Riding astride Rex with her

can deliver her route without
getting off her horse. Some
times she uses the buggy, but
not often. On Sundays she
uses the car to deliver and is
back at home by 7 a. m.
Martha Is somewhat of a tom
boy and likes to do things that
boys do. She plays guard on the
Mocksville High school basket

A tenth grade student at
Mocksville High, she takes an
active part In the Glee club and
airl Scouts as well as young
people’s work, of the First Bap
tist church.
She is an outdoor girl and loves
athletics, probably inherited from
her father who was known in the
Piedmont league some years ago
as "Doc” Mason when he pitched
for Winston - Salem when Jim
Kelly and Charlie Clancy man
aged the Twins. She loves to
hunt and fish with her dad and
Is a good shot on a bird hunt
with her .410 gauge shotgun.
Dr. Mason and his wife, the

ticed dentistry. They have made

for Rex, she will not worry about
gasoline for her nevyspaper
