Each week The Enterprise itunmiiriies the war newi, both abroad and at home, >o that readers nuty get a quick, bird’s eye view of Important happenings. Allied armies In the west are achieving their objeo tlve of destroying German forces in the field. The First and Ninth armies caught an estimated 110,000 first class Oerman troops in the Ruhr when they joined behind their lines. The enemy must either fight their way out or sur render. Last reports stated they were trying to fight. Another Nazi force is in danger of being trapped in Holland and they are reported fleeing. Observers think that it cannot be long now before the Allies in the west meet the Russians somewhere in Central Germany. Many observers Ihink that all organized German re sistance will be over by the end of this month. Everybody is wondering about V-E day. It is stated that General Eisenhower will announce the time when it comes. His.announcement is expected to state that all organized German resistance has been overcome but Hit ler and some of his choice SS troops are expected to con- ; tinue the struggle in Bavaria and Austria—if he is able to do so. I ; It is possible that the Russian advance may cut off Hitler’s hope of fleeing to the Bavarian Alps. Hitler has been placed as number one on the Allies war criminal list and most people doubt that he will ever be taken alive. FIGHTING IN THE WEST Russian troops are now only 20 miles away from the capital of Austria, Vienna, where a hard fight is expected. The Russians in the center, only 31 miles from Berlin, have not been able to make any advances for weeks and Berlin hints that an offensive in this sector is not far away. GERMAN PRISONERS Hitler ordered every German to fight to the last ditch but apparently they are not doing it. The Allies took 350,000 prisoners in March. Correspondents who have Interviewed German civil ians and captured soldiers find that they have no sense of war guilt for destruction of towns, starvation of citizens and forcing minions into slave labor. They want this country and Britain to rebuild their cities and feed them. Prison camps captured by the Allies in the west were found tp have Americans who were, being starved to death, the average loss in weight being 25 to 40 pounds in only a few months. The prisoners were those taken by the Ger mans last December in the Ardennes bulge. INVASION OF OKINAWA Marines and infantrymen of this country invaded Oki nawa, only 350 miles from the Jap' mainland on Easter morning. The invasion met with little resistance, much to the surprise of everybody and already our forces have cut the 10-mile wide island in two and captured two of the five airfields on it. The Japs are estimated to have 100,- 000 men on the island and before it is finally captured much bloody fighting is anticipated. The Okinawa invasion was made by the largest am phibious force ever assembled in the Pacific, some 1,400 ships. The British also had a task force in action. Okinawa will enable us to bomb Japan proper, Formosa and the China coast, as well as stifle communications. BYRNES R E SIN S James F. Byrnes has resigned as War Mobilization di rector ancl Fred M. Vinson takes his place. His resigna tion is taken as another sign that the end of Germany Is near since he recently consented to remain until Germany was beaten.

McQUAOE ••■••••••••■•••■■••a Publisher SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $2.00 Per Year Inside of Davie Coimty—$2.50 Per Year Outside of Davie County. Strictly' Payable in Advance. Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879. STEP IN RIGHT DIRECTION The North CarollAa Legislature, in passing the Hos pital Bill, has taken a step in the right direction in lay ing the foundations for further efforts towards providing hospitalization for all of the people. It is an undeniable fact that many persons are suffering today for lack of medical treatment, for the very simple reason economic status does not permit it. We trust that the good work goes on until education in right living, as well as provision for those who are sick, will be extended to every comer of the state. The physical unfits discovered in the physi cal examhiatlon of soldiers is both warning and exhorta tion for the state to do something about it. FREEDOM TO REPORT Much has been said recently about freedom of the press. Some criticism has been made of restricting news, even when that news might be of help to the enemy. The American press is also contending for freedom in otur postwar world. We are in sympathy with all laudable ef forts to secure freedom but at the same time we wish to add our plea for a better sort of reporting. Headlines and written articles are so designed as to secure attention by making them as sensational as possible. We seldom see the sane, constructive utterances of congressmen, yet there must.be some of them who, at times, must say something sensible. But the public gets a sort of general Impression that the congress is composed of an asinine collection of individuals, as so much publicity Is given to the asinine remarks, of the more irresponsible members. For our part we’d like the reporters to create a different Impression, and a different mind In the mass of people , by really playing I up the fine things. Such a method would, we believe, create and promote more constructive thinking, and more sobered expression. Likewise, we be lieve that the best In people should receive more atten tlon. The attention given to divorces, as news of a sensa tional sort, tends to create more divorces. More atten tion should be given to the people who make, good homes, and thus help to make a great country. If, as the re porters sometimes reply, “Well, this Is the stuff the people want and pay for we still have our belief that the Press has a responsibility to educate people to appreciate the better sort of stuff. CLOTHING ASKED FOR WAR NEEDY AND ASSEMBLY POINTS NAMED -TREATMENT OF GERMANY We are among those who would not pour relentless punishment upon the German people, but we believe that the Allied world should discharge Its responsibility in destroying the spirit of Nazism which has found a home In the minds and hearts of the German people. Granted that Hitler and his gang are responsible-for teach ing a whole generation of the youth of Germany, and thus moulding the character of a people, thè Germans them selves must share the i responsibility for lending them selves to such a plan and program. That the present gen eration of Germans are far removed from all the accepted ideals of justice, mercy, a sense of brotherhood, and other virtues which spring from the Christian religion, is an established fact. Unfortunately, millions of Americans have never taken the trouble to ' discover the German mind, and to observe the state of degradation to which those , people have fallen. The destruction which they have heaped upon Europe Is so brutal, criminal, and so marked with depravity that it does stagger the Imagination of decent people. Our troops now entering Germany are finding out that the Ger mans have been living well — and the German army has been living on the fat of the land. The reason, of course, is that millions of other Europeans are starving because the Germans stole their food. Orders have been found in which Hitler directed all German troops to make American prisoneris feel the superiority of the German and not to hesitate to torture and kill them. The Ger mans, so they were taught, are so superior that all other peoples must be made to feel their Inferiority. If we sometimes feel the frightfulness which must^ now be falling upon the German people let us remember that we did not START THIS WAR. The cold, sober fact is that the Germans have destroyed themselves; the very forces and powers which they created have now turned upon them in all their might. It is, of course, a world; tragedy, but we might well spare our sympathy for thej innocent peoples who have been so ruthlessly destroyed by Germany. The month oi AprU has been designated as United Clothing Collection month. The Home Demonstration clubs In the county are cooperating in the collection of clothing of all kinds to send to needy destitute peo ple of war devastated countries. This is a good time of year to launch such a drive. Home mak ers will be storing winter cloth ing and unpacking summer clothes. There will be garments that can’t bie used, by family members that some one else can use, and every woman should welcome the opportunity to con tribute to the life saving and comfort giving obligation to the millions of Innocent people In lands ravaged by war. They will freeze unless we give; this be ing true we should give to the uttermost of our resources. The following is a list of clothing most urgently needed: Infants garments; particular ly knitted goods, men’s and boys’ garments; overcoats, suits, coats, and all types of work clothes, women’s and girls’ garments; oyercoats, jackets, sweaters, dresses, underwear, aprons, jumpers, smocks and nightwear. Bedding; blankets, sheets, pil low cases and quilts, if in serv iceable condition. Shoes; oxfords or high shoes of durable type with low or medium heels. Cotton clothing should be washed and woolens dry slean- ed when It Is not advisable to wash them. The Home Demonstration agent’s office will be headquar ters for the collection In Mocks- vUle. The homes of clothing lead ers in the various home demon- straUon clubs will also serve as collection points. Clothing lead ers are: Mrs. O. H. Hartley, Jerusalem club; Mrs. Wade P4irches, Pino club; Mrs. Caesar Wyatt and Mrs. Wade Wyatt, Fork club; Mrs. Cecil Leagans, Cana club; Mrs. Jim Barnes, Bixby club; Mrs. R. C. Foster, North Calahaln club; Miss Ann Anthony, Cooleemee club; Miss Margaret Day wait, Kappa club; Mrs. I. O. Roberts, Claricsville club; Mrs. C. H. Barney, Dulins club; Mrs. J. W. Davis, Mocks- ville club, and Mrs. Minnie Bry son, Advance. Residents of the (|Ounty are asked to begin their collections now, and send them, to one of the above assembly points. COOLEEMEE AJOKEADAY Under Oftth L ai^er '^And what was tlie defendant doing meanwhile?” Witness: “He was telling me a funny story.” Lawyer: “Remember, air, you are under oath.” Witness: "Well, anyway, he was telling me a story.” Non Musical Interpretation The conductor of the toarid glared at the cornet player. “Why on earth,” he yelled, “did you leave off playing just as, we got to the chorus?” “Well,” said the cornet player (a raw recruit), “On my music It said Refrain. So I did.” Green Perslmmona Bowler: “I understand that Senator Green wanted you to act as his private secretary.” Simmons: "He did, but I was not willing to accept the honor of such a position because I would have to sign everything, Green, per Simmons.” A WAC went for a walk in the woods, and coming to a beautiful lake decided to go for a swim. She laid her clothes carefully on the ground an dtook a dip. As she emerged she saw a lieutenant coming down the path. Not hav ing time to dress, she quickly hid from him behind a tree. The of ficer approached, stopped and shouted, “Camouflage Company No. 1 dismissed.” All the trees marched off.

MORE ABOUT WAR NEWS on May 14, 1945, with a goal of 14 billion dollars, the ^easury Department announces. One objective of this drive wlll ide the sàie of $7,000,000,000 worth of Government securities to individuals. This is the largest quota ever set for individuals in a War Loan Drive. As a part of the campaign to raise this amount, an intensive program for the sale of Series E Bonds in plants and factories will be gin April 9. “It is clear,” Secretary Morgenthau said, “that Federal, expenditures are going to remain at a high level for some time to come. It is also apparent that funds b the hands of non-bank Investors will continue to in crease sharply under present conditions. It is highly de sirable to channel as much of these funds as possible into Government security Investment, and to put them to work in the prosecution of the war.’* RISE OF FARM REAL ESTATE VALUES CONTINUE The average index value per acre of farm real estate (1912-1914, index value 100) for the United States as a whole was 126 on karch 1, 1945, representing a rise of 11 per cent during the last year, and 5 per cent during the preceding four months, according to the Bureau of Ag ricultural Economics. Values rose 15 per cent during the year ended in March, 1944, and 21 per cent In 1919-1920, when the peak of the World War I boom was reached. Val ues have now advanced at an average rate of one per cent a month for four years. The rise for the 1941-45 per iod Is 85 per cent of the increase for the four-year period 1916-1920. During the year average values Increased 15 per cent or more in nine States, and 10 per cent or more in 26 States. The Increases during the year equalled or ex ceeded the record increases of 1919-20 in five States. PURCHASERS OF PASSENGER CAR TIRES CLASSIFIED IN FOUR GROUPS A preferential of occupations for use in selecting per sons to receive passenger car tires has been approved by OPA in cooperation with the War Manpower Commission. Under the new plan the number of elegibles Is not reduced, but they are classified Into four preference groups for the aid of local War Price and Rationing Boards whose oc cupations are of emergency nature, and to workers at es tablishments faced with production emergencies. Within this group are eligible phyislclans, public health nurses, police and employes at critical war industries such as those producing urgently needed aircraft and ammunition that are experiencing a manpower emergency. The exact plants, however, will be determined on the advice of local WMC officials. Group II Includes persons employed In other es sential plants, and those whose occupations are highly Important to the war effort. In this group are farmers, farm workers and representatives of management, labor and Government who recruit for essential establishments. Group III Includes such occupations as buyers for essential establishments, and persons who travel to essential es tablishments on request to perform necessary technical services, such as those who advise these establishments on machinery maintenance problems. Group IV takes in all other persons eligible for Grade I passenger tires. NO NEED FOR PESSIMISM ABOUT FOOD SUPPLY, SAYS MARVIN JONES “I hope no one will be misled about the food situation,” says War Food Administrator Marvin Jones. “No one has gone hungry in this country. No one is going hungry. In 1943 the American farmers produced 32 per cent more food than this or any other nation ever produced before thè war. In 1944 they upped this by 5 per cent, making a rec ord increase of 37 per cent above prewar production. This record was made In ?plte of the handicaps of war. This year the farmers themselves set goals that call for an even greater crop acreage. Our armed forces will continue to be well-fed. We will continue to help our fighting ,allies. Our own people will continue to have plenty of good, whole some food, and we will contribute our share to the relief of starving people, even If It means a new hitch In our belts. This is a practical matter and a part of the war It self. Anyone who sells the American farmer short makes a mistake.” SALE o f UNGRADED FARM EGGS NOW PERMITTED Because of heavy demand for eggs and a relatively short supply, steps have been taken to permit the sale bf “current receipt” (ungraded) eggs, f. o. b. the seller’s farm, place of business or other location, OPA has an nounced. OPA also said that on sales to a Government agency, one and one-half cents a dozen may be added to the celling price for eggs that have been treated for preservation by immersion in hot water followed by a coat ing of mineral oil. ^ILK pro d u ctio n fo r 1945 EXPECTED TO EQUAL LAST YEAR’S OUTPUT Milk production on farms during 1945 Is expected to be at least as large as the 1944 output of 119 billion pounds, says the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Milk cows on farms January 1,1945, totaled 27,785,000 head, or 129,000 more than on January 1, 1944. Returns to dairy farmers because of higher production payment rates but- terfat, probably will average higher In 1945 than In 1944. Also dairy products-feed price ratios will continue favor able to milk producers with the 1942-1943 average. ‘ш FRIDAY, APRIL б, 1945 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE PAGES Pje/Uxmaii-QJdJki Cpl.

The same amount of sugar (700,000 tons) has been set aside this year for home canning as was set aside last year. i<ast year, however, 300,000 tons more sugar than the total amount allocated for home canning was bought by housewives. A large part of this sugar was bought with Stamp 40, the home canning stamp, and much of it was used for or dinary 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 1045 no stamps will be validated for canning sugar. Housewives will te given siigar coupons for hoqie canning by their local boards. Each housewife’s home canning sugar’ allotment will be based on the amount of can ning 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 persona. The government is asking chicken raisers to grow one or two extra broods of chicks, start ing right away.

Ijo o d farmers—for over a hun dred years—have hauled natural nitrate for their crops. Since 1830, when the iirst 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- ebie to bring it in. It everyone takes hia share promptly when offered, at least 850,000 tons can be supplied iot year's crops, While some nitrate nomjaliy goes into mixed fertilizer, most of it is applied direct to the crop —top dressing for grains and grasses, side dressing for corn and cotton. Direct application to fruit and vegetable crops li 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 ail 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 io- 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. Mr. and Mrs. Lester Bowles and son, Edward Lee, Mr. and Mrs. Francis Shore and daugh ter, Carolyn, and Miss Jeanette Shore visited Mr. and Mrs. J. B.

Pennington Files Fcjr Mayor HEREftTHERE The town of Mocksville may have a political race on May 8 for the first time in many years. All of the present Democratic members of the board of town commissioners have filed for re-election in the primary on April 30 and there is considerable talk of an independent ticket opposing them in thi general election on May 8. W. M. Pennington, local business man, haS filed for mayor in the Democratic primary. T. I. Caudell, incum bent, announced last week he would not seek re-election. So far no opposition has been announced to Mr. Penning ton. Members of the present board who filed this week for re-election include S. M. Call, J. C. Sanford, C. A. Foster, Dr. P. H. Mason and J. D. P. Campbell. A number of .years back Mocksville had an independent ticket which was known as a Citizens ticket and it went Into office. The talk now—and it is of serious proportions—Is a ticket composed of Democrats and Republicans. Such a ticket would require a petition signed by a stipulated per centage of the voters requesting that the names of the candidates be placed on the ballot in the general election. Registration books for the Democratic primary open today, April 13, and close April 21. The books are open from 0 to 5 p. m. and until 9 p. m. on Saturdays. The last date for candldatcts to file for mayor or commissioner in the primary Is April 19 at 6 p. m. ^ Registration books for the general election open on April 20 and close April 28.

DAVIE CROPS HURT BY COLD AND FROST; FULL EXTENT UNKNOWN The full extent ol the damage done by the heavy frost and cold last week has not yet been ac curately determined, according to George Hobson, county agent. There has, however, been a good deal ol damage. One reason Is that It is esti mated that we have had the earliest spring In 90. years and nobody has any previous experi ence on which to base their judgment. Mr. Hobson, after making a tour this week through the coun ty and talking to farmers, said It looked like all ot the grapes, plums and cherries had been killed. The grapes, however, may put out new growth. Peaches seem to have been thinned out in some sections and In others there will be a Files For Mayor STORES CHECKED Only 19 of the ,.39 food stores checked In ,March were found to be In vlcdatlon of price reg ulations.

Apples appear not to have been hurt so much and a fair crop Is anticipated. It is most too early to tell the extent of the damage to small grain, Mr. Hobson says. The early-seeded barley, however, which Is heading out at pres ent has been severely damaged and farmers may be forced to salvage this crop for tiay. Wheat and oats seem to have escaped much damage, a for tunate break tor the farmer since these crops constitute a large acreage in the county. Some early - planted garden crops also suffered .from' the frost and below - freezing weather.

Red clover Is a val uable and profitable crop, but re quires proper liming, fertilizing and Inoculation. Reed Hauser and J. O.

This Is a new practice for this community, but more will be done when the other farmers learn the value of terracing. . Jessie Singleton and W. H.

It Is needless to say these ditches were making gul lies. They have been tom down and new lines rhn by the Middle Yadkin District. M. S.

C., as Second* Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1870. “THE WORLD DO MOVE” Eric Johnson, President of the American Chamber of Commerce, recently addressed a labor imion in New York, and offered some pretty sensible ^vlce. He advised busi ness managers, labor, agriculture and government to take a leaf from the Yalta conference and agree on a program for “Peace at Home." As one reporter told it, Mr. John son said that monopoly is a “sissy” way to do business. He was courteously received, and was courteous In his address. No great diskster has yet followed this meeting of two representatives of different groups. It does provide some thing for serious consideration by both labor and man agement. We must learn to cooperate, not how to fight. SOLDIERS AT THE PEACE TABLE Some persons, whose names escapes us at the moment, has made a suggestion which merits the attention and approval of those who plan for post war peace. He says that the war correspondents at the front, and the men who have fought on the various battle fronts should be called in to the council tables and be permitted to give their ideas about the conditions of peace, and the order ing of the new world society. Those men have seen vrar closc up; they have been through all the hell of it, and they have, understandings of war, and of peace, which those far removed from the actual scenes of war cannot have. They have won a right to be there; and they have learned something which will prove of tremendous value to those who p l^ for peace. BEGINNING OF THE END The crossing of the Rhine and the powerful Allied drive into Germany marks the beginning of the end of the struggle to destroy Nazism. Even though much hard lighting remains to be done the results of that fighting are clearly indicated. Thosè boasting, brutal braggarts who set out five years ago to trample the^world under the hobnail shoes of a beastial Germany, are now retreating into a small pocket of their "invincible" Germany to make their last desperate stand. Chickens will come home to roost. Germany is now being hanged on the gallows which she prepared for others. It. is. tragic,, of course, but the world may better spare its pity for those whom Germany made to suffer so terribly. No one, at least very few people in the world, wishes to destroy the German people, or punish them beyond their desserts, but until the German people can come to think and act in some gen eral agreement with the thought and actions of the de cent people of the earth, she cannot hope to find a place In the family of nations. Once she shows such a mind the rest of the world will be disposed to help her to re covery. Germany has destroyed herself. A STUDY IN CONTRASTS Pictures given by war correspoijdents, and news items from the home fronts, furnish material for a study in contrast. Over there it is soldiers red-eyed and tired from three days fighting without sleep; it is soldiers covered , with dust, and again covered with mud; it is soldiers be ing carried back on stretchers; soldiers with arms, legs, faces shot away. There is the terrible stench of blood, of rotting carcasses of horses and men. Over here the mayor of New York defies the government and extends the cur few that night clubbers may have a little longer to enjoy the twirl of the dance, the exhilaration of liquor, and the satisfaction of delicious foods. And, but for those gallant men who are dying in Germany, New Yorkers might be enduring the terrors of bombing, and spending their nights in bomb shelters. The callousness of the people at home, who complain of having to give up night clubs, do without a little meat, or suffer deprivation of some luxuries, is a greater tragedy than the sacrifices of the men at the front. They are motivated by high ideas, sus tained by great courage, and show themselves men to command the admiration of mankind. Certainly, mil lions of workers on the home front deserve just as great praise as the men at the front—but therCvls a sizable por tion of the American people whose selfishness and greed send up a stench like unto those dead horses on the battle field.

Rural Areas Need Larger^ospitals As part of their recent report to the Governor of North Caro lina, the Rural Medlrel Care Committee pointed out that the rural areas of the state «how a deficit of 6,000 hospital b«da if they are to have the facJUties called adequate by the Amerlran Medical Association. Dr. C. Horace Hamilton, head of the Rural Sociology Depart ment at State College, and a member of the Oovernor’s Com mittee, says that the state has 128 general hospitals approved by the Medical Association; con taining 8,475 beds, or 2.4 beds per 1,000 population. To meet the standards set by that group, how ever, the state must provide at least 4 beds per 1,000 people, or an additional 6,000 hospital beds. After allowing for imavoldable vacancies, amountUig to 25%, the .6,000 additional' beds would provide the state with 1.1 days of hospitalization per person. In 1940, North Carolina used only .52 of a day hospitalization per person as compared with .¿0 for the nation, and over 1.0 for states like Maryland, Minnesota, and Louisiana. North Carolina ranked 42nd In the nation In the' number of hospital beds per 1,000 popula tion in 1940; 39th, in admissions to hospitals; 40th, In percentage of hospital beds occupied; and 43rd, In days of hospitalization per person.

Less manpower and a reduced number of older trucks, ODT emphasized, will be available to haul approx- jimately the same, and in some products, larger tonnages than were hauled in 1944. The WFA 1945 production goals call for the planting and harvesting of 300,000,000 acres of cultivated, crops and 64,000,000 acrés of hay. It also expected that 135,000,000 head of livestock will be slaugh tered. During 1944, ÒDT said, the greatest harvest of agricultural products ever produced by the American farmer—livestock poultry, milk, fruit, vegetables, grains, etc., was successfully moved from producing areas without any loss due to lack Of trucking transportation. NEW CHEMICAL TOEATMENT FOR POLES AND POSTS ANNOUNCED Scientists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture have developed a method by which farmers arid other users of wood-lot trees can introduce chemicals into the sap stream of the wood to Increase the length of service of fence posts, bean poles, garden stakes and other utility poles. The fresh-cut saplings are simply allowed to stand in a wooden tub or trough containing the right amoimt of chemical in solution for a period of about six hours or until they have taken up thè required amount of chem ical. Chemicals recommended include chromated zinc chloilde, zinc chloride and copper sulfate (bluestone), of which the chromated zinc chloride is the best. The chro mated zinc chloride is twice as expensive as zinc chloride or copper sufate, but it protects the wood longer and is also less corrosive to wire staples than copper sulfate. One ppund of either of the chemicals dissolved in a half gallon of water will treat one cubic foot of, wood, or the equiva lent of a sapling which measures about four inches at the base and is about 30 feet tall. All of the recommended chemicals are poisonous and should ke kept out of the reach of children, pets and livestock. None of them should be stored in metal containers. Because copper sulfate is corrosive, it must not be used in metal tubs or troughs. IRON CASTINGS UP-RATED TO AID FARM MACHINERY PRODUCTION To insure delivery of essential farm equipment, a lim ited volume of malleable iron castings needed in the pro duction of farm machinery and equipment will be up rated to AA-1, WPB announced. Production of farm equipment (exclusive of repair parts) is at present about 20 per cent behind schedule, and shortage of malleable iron castings is one of the chief factors retarding produc tion, WPB said. The up-rating to AA-1 is expected to result in a considerable improvement in meeting produc tion schedules for the year July 1, 1944, to June 30, 1945. TIRE DEALERS’ PRICES TO BE CHECKED ■Volunteer assistants of local War Price and Rationing Boards will visit tire and tire repairing firms during the period from April 15 to 30 to check dealers’ prices for tires and services and Inspect their records and postings in a nation-wide compliance survey for the Office of Price Ad ministration, says OPA. The volunteer price panel assist ants will check to see that the seller’s ceiling prices are posted , in his shop, that he is giving sales slips to each purchaser, and that he is keeping records of each sale as required by the regulation. They will also check the prices he charged on the last few sales of specific items, from his records. Ceiling prices for new and used tires and tubes, recapping, repairing, rellners, patches and boots are specif ically listed in the regulation. Finally, they will ask if he makes any extra charges for extra services and how he determines such charges. Dealers who are found in vio lation of any of thésè requirements will be asked to come in for compliance conference with the price panel of their local board. Those who are selling above celling price will be asked to make refunds to buyers who paid excessive amounts and may face treble damage action. Action by the survey is based on Revised Maximum Price Regulation 528 which fixes ceilings on tires, tubes and certain services lift the health standards of the people, Or.

Frank, operator on a B-25 bomb er, was reported missing In ac tion over the Kuriles island since last Dec. 30. The captain said the craft was last contact ed by radio and position neat the Kuriles but the time and substance of the message was not given. Other crews return ing to their base reported tur bulent weather in flight but could furnish nothing further as to the exact nature of her son’s loss. " The captain said Frank proved on numerous occasions by means of his faithfulness and courage that he was an extraordinary soldier; that he went beyond the call of normal duty to more thoroughly execute his assign ments and that it was no exag geration to say that his loss was a blow to every member of the organization. - There were seven men in R ank’s plane and a list of the nearest of kin of the others was sent Mrs. Poplin. She has cor responded with six of the seven families. One of them wrote that Frank’s plane was having motor trouble in the fog and that an other plane turned ’back with the one in. trouble.

We must get along with less sugar this year because— 1. Military needs are high. Bach soldier actually consumes twice as much sugar a year as the average civilian now receives. 2. Ships which otherwise might be brlngtag sugar into the United States are hauling supplies to the battel fronts. 3. Manpower Is scarce at sugar refineries and shipping ports. 4. Beet sugar production last year was 500,000 tons short, making the stock of sugar small er for this year. 5. Last year many people over- applied for canning sugar. We used so much sugar that stocks at the beginning of this year were abnormally low. Do not apply for more sugar than you actually need for home canning — help make our war Merchants Reminded To rile Price Charts W. M.

C., as Second -Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879; WHERE PEACE BEGINS We are arriving at the point where peace talk must begin to be translated into action and into organized forms. We must not expect peace of a lasting sort to be thrown out upon the world at random Just because we are tired of war. Peace is something which must be created and it starts in the heart and mind of the indi vidual. The most of us are looking to Truman, Stalin and Churchill, together with their advisors tnd the mili tary, to make a better world. Our role, we seem to think, is to criticize the mistakes which they m^ke. That, mil lions of people feel, is the contribution which they have to make to world peace—and we could mention a number of columnists who take that role seriously. But our leaders cannot make anything which does not flow but of the mhids, hearts and attitudes of the peo pies whom they represent. They cannot possibly organize the conflicts of individuals, nations and races into a unity which will Insure peace. Individuals, nations and races must possess the attitudes and the will which can be or ganized into peace. That means, of course, that each one of us must be prepared to look at things through the eyes of the others as well as our own; we must be prepared to make some sacrifices before we can ask others to make sacrifices. If we want peace we must pay for it. We have paid a far greater price for war than we should have had to pay for peace. It is better to be sensible at . the beginning of a project, than to have to learn through bitter experience and be sensible with nothing to show for It. This new world is much more than what the few leaders say and do; it is a matter of what all of U3 ARE. MOURNED TOWARDS FRIENDLY COOPERATION There ought to be a sort of penitential examination of each of the many groups within our social order. It ought to be intimate, personal examination—not of the other fellow, but of each one and each group. There are tones and arguments between labor and cap ital today which does not prophesy good things for the future. Both are acting childishly. The nations opposed to Germany and Japan went to war because some totali tarian ideas of government threatened the liberties of free people everywhere. We don’t want totalitarinism in our government—neither can we have it In business, by man agement or labor, and continue to be free people. When capital had its day it went in for some totalitarianism on a big scale. It demanded the right to determine for many people the returns which capital should have, the wages which laborers should have and the hours which they should work. Its theory of competition made this a legitimate practice. But labor, having discovered that it could do .some competing on its own, has been steadily going along in the way of some totalitarianism of its own. And, as John L. Lewis has shown, a union dictator can do some consid erable dictating. While labor has won many deserving points in its efforts,it threatens to go beyond them. This means war between labor and capital and war is war no matter where we find it. Labor and cauital must learn to know and appreciate each other and talk things over with all the facts before them. Such war cannot possibly bene'fit either group and the public will suffer even more. This is a time, not for war, but for sincere, thoughtful men on both sides to talk things over. War between these groups will destroy what both create. Surely there is sufficient character, common sense and willingness to make concessions on the part of all groups to enable us to ci-eate in peace and distribute according to needs. Foster Brothers Meet In Pacific Harold Foster and his brother, Lester, who are serving with the U. S. Anny In the Paclllc area, met over there on April 5. Harold, In a letter to his parents, told them that he was talking with another soldier who said that hls'brother^ Lester, was In his cpmpany and that he would bring him over to see him. He said he did not give It much thought, because he did not be lieve he was there, On the fol lowing day the soldier walked In with his brother. This is the first time they have seen each other since Lester entered the service two years ago. They also visit ed Olenn Bivins and Tom Athey, two other Cooleemee boys, who are In the same outfit with Har old. Harold and Lester are sons of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Foster, who have another .son serving In the European war. About May 1 give all sheep except lambs. Individual doses of Cu-^Nlc.

Cannibal: "Oh, yes, we got a taste of it when the last mission ary was here.” Ticket Guidance A distinguished bishop, while making a Journey by rail, was unable to find his ticket when the Inspector asked for It. "Never mind, bishop,” said the official, who knew hhn well, "I’ll get It on my second round.” However, when the Inspector passed through the coach again the ticket was still missing. "Oh, well, bishop, It will be all right If you never find It,” the Inspector assured him. "No, It won’t,” contradicted the bishop. “I’ve got to find that ticket. I want to know where I’m going.” PRESIDENT FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT Franklin D. Roosevelt is dead. His memory, his deeds and accomplishments will live forever. ..All that is mortal of the great humanitarian has been laid beneath the sod. But men like him -in a real sense—can never die. So much has been said since the imiimely passing of our great leader last week, that almost anything we might add now would be repetition. Our nation, in fact, the entire world except Germany and Japan, has mourn ed his death as no other person has ever been mourned before. The grief was not simply “official,” either. It was a genuine feelhig of Iqss. The great multitudes of the world felt that, In the passing of Franklin Delano Roose velt, they had lost a very personal, and a very real friend. Especially was this true among the little people—the down trodden and imderprlvlleged in this country. ;^yen so, it was likewise felt among the people of the liberated coun tries of Europe. He was their champion, too. No doubt there will be physical monuments erected to the memory of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. But far greater thdn those markers are the many things that are not physical, of which many have already been con structed, or are already nearing completion. But possibly the greatest of these—only the foundation of which has been laid—is the establishment of a permanent and lasting peace throughout the world and for all time to come. ' It was in this effort that Roosevelt died. It was in this that he had madfe the final dedication of his life. t If the structure of lasting world peace can be built upon the foundation—the Roosevelt foundation—already laid, truly that will be the greatest monument that can be built to the memory of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

PRESIDENT RobiSËVELT DIES The nation and the world was shocked last Thursday by the death of President Roosevelt at Warm Springs, Ga. of a cerebral hemorrhage. 'The funeral was held in the East room of the White House Saturday afternoon and burial in the family plot at Hyde Park on Sunday morn ing. Local business houses closed between 3:30 and 4:30 p. m. last Saturday in tribute. President Truman has taken hold of the reins of the government with a firm hand. He has stated that he will follow the policies laid down by President Roosevelt and he has been pledged the support of leaders of both political parties and citizens generally in prosecuting the war against our enemies and making a durable peace. Meanwhile Stalin has agreed to send his top man, Molo tov, to the San Francisco conference and the Polish ques tion seems nearer to a solution. HOUSEWIFE COOPERATION It ifl a simple matter for a housewife to report an over ceiling price to her local War Price and Rationing Board, OPA explains, in stressing that price control can be effec tively enforced only with the public’s cooperation. All such reports, OPA said, are confidential. Even if court ac tion results, the housewife who reported the above-ceiling charge does not have to appear unless she wishes. OPA also pointed out that the retailer about whom a report is made doesn’t necessarily land in jail. Often retail charges above ceiling are made through mistake, and not delib erately to gain an excessive wartime profit. All a house wife has to do to report an above-ceiling charge is to tele phone, write or visit the board and give the following in formation: (1) Your name and address, which will be held confidential; (2) Name and address of the store; (3) Description of the article, for example, “a No. 2 can of (brand name) peas”; (4) The amount of money you were asked to pay for it. If you can tell how much' above the celling price you were charged, be sure to do so. BLACK MARKET IN MEAT The reason for the black market in meat are explained primarily by two figures, the Office of Price Administra tion said. American civilians with the purchasing power now available to them provide a demand, at ceiling prices, of 170 pounds of méat per capita per year. Allocations for the present quarter of this year allow for a civilian con-,, sumption of 115 pounds. This difference between a de mand of 170 pounds and a supply of 115 ik>unds consti tutes the root of the black market. Such an enormous gap between demand and supply has placed a terrific pres sure on firms and individuals in the meat Industry to vio late price regualtions. The need for an aroused public opinion against black market operations is of the utmost importance, OPA pointed out. The housewife who will ingly pays black market prices for meat Is depriving our men in the armed forces, cheating her fellow citizens of their fair share of meat under rationing, and lining the pockets of greedy men who are taking advantage of the war for their personal gain. RENT CONTROL , In areas where rent control is in effect all rental ac commodations must be registered. Landlords who have not registered rented living quarters with the OPA area rent office should do so at once. ALCOHOLIC DRINK PRICE POSTINGS Standard-form printed OPA posters showing ceiling prices of alcoholic drinks muist now be displayed in all eat ing or drinking establishments serving alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises. The official OPA standard form printed list must be used. Copies may be obtained from local War Price and Rationing Boards. • Similar standardized official posters must be used to show ceiling prices of beer and other malt beverages. Unofficial posters will not meet requirements of the posting regulation. CEILING PRICE POSTERS Revised community ceiling posters for processed foods which have just been distributed to retail food dealers are printed in brown ink so they may be readily distin guished from previously issued posters. One of the new posters must be displayed for every fifteen hundred square feet of floor space in a store, and they must be placed where they may be read at a distance of not more than two feet. The new posters contains some 500 odd items, and the prices indicate that food prices in general have decreased 4.5 per cent since the first community ceiling prices were published in May, 1943.

M. Pennington, chairman of the Davie War Price and Rationing board, said to day. A letter sent to all retail deal ers in this region reminds them that they" must affix sugar stamps from Ration Book 4 on gummed sheets. Form 120-A, fa miliarly referred to as "bingo,” sheets; that sugar coupons must be detached in the presence of the seller and that they muist not accept loose sugar ration stamps, he said. Mr. Pennington pointed out that a sugar dealer failing to observe these regulations might automatically force himself out of the sugar business and that he renders himself liable to other penalties. When a dealer turns in his stamps, Mr. Pennington added, they quickly find their way to the Regional Verification center in Atlanta, where they are sub mitted to a violent ray test, which instantly reveals counter feits. The source of the stamp is identified by a check mark, after which it is charged back to the merchant, and may then -be turned over to OPA’s enforce ment division. Even though the dealer ac cepted the counterfeit stamp in good faith the loss to him re mains unchanged, for his sugar allotiment is , automatically re duced by the amount covered by the counterfeit stamps, he said. The purchaser of sugar, he said, has a self-protective inter est in not tendering loose stamps and in not removing stamps from BIXBY Relatives and friends gather ed at the home of Mrs. T. B.

R. Collins, In charge of Exen- slon agronomy at State college. He suggests that the grower take an acre ot good land, nor mally producing about 20 to 30 bushels per acre; have the soil tested for lime; and apply lime where recommended. Lay off 12,446 feet of row. with the rows 3 1-2 feet apart, Prepare a good seed bed In the usual way. Use a well adapted corn hybrid or a looal variety and plant enough seed to get the desired stand., If the corn follows tobacco or cotton, use 300 pounds of 6-8-6 or 5-7-5 fertilizer per acre. If the corn is in rotation with small grains and legumes for seed, or where legumes are turned under, apply 300 to 500 pounds of either of these fertilizers. If the corn Is in rotation with peanuts or legumes for hay, apply 300 to 500 pounds of 4-8-8. The number of plants per acre Is most Important. For yields up to 50 bushels, space plants 24 Inches In 3 1-2 foot rows; 50 to 70 bushels, 21 Inches; and 75 to 100 bushels, 16 Inches. This gives 6,000,7,200, and 9,350 plants per acre. For yield Increases of 25 to 45 bushels per acre, apply 60 to 80 pounds of nitrogen per acre. This amount of nitrogen can be ob tained in 375 to 500 pounds of nitrate of soda or 190 to 250 pounds of ammonium nitrate; also, from other quick acting ni trogen materials. ,Where hay or legumes have been removed, on ueanut lands, and on potash deficient soils, apply 100 pounds of muriate of potash per acre along with the nitrogen as a topdresser.

Answer: The purest marl does not have quite as high a neu- tralllng value for acid soils as the average dolomltlc lime stone, says Dr. Emerson Collins, in charge of Extension agrono my at State College. He also points out that the marl does not carry magnesium which is particularly needed in the Coas tal Plain, the Sandhills, and on the heavier acid soils. A yield of 11-2 bales of cotton per acre takes up 86 pounds of magne sium and 30 bushels of soybeans take up about 40 pounds. Mag nesluni promotes the formation of oils and fats and acts as a oarrier of phosphate in thé plant. Question: Do we need to pro duce as much food as last year? Answer: President Roosevelt says that "as we enter the new year, the demands» for our food at home and abroad are so great that it is essential for every man and woman to do everything to help In the huge task of get ting the food produced and seeing that it Is conserved and shared. Many of our favorite foods are scarce. To this end, I ask the people in cities, towns and villages to assist our farm ers in every possible way to reach the food goals which have been set for this year." Question: How can honey production be increased? Answer: With practical man agement, bees in North Carolina should yield at least 3 times the average amount of honey pro duced at present, says Prof, Ross O. Stevens of the Zoology De partment at State College. His State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RVTH CURRENT N. C.

Push the plug in flimly, being isure it is all the way in so you will not bum the con tact points. To break contact, take a firm hold on the plug and pull it out quickly. Don’t wig' gle it out. Never jerk on the cord itself, either to dlscoiviect it from the appliance or the outlet, or to straighten out the kinks. Such Jerkhig may pull the wires loose from the screiwis that hold them in №e older kind of plug. This might cause ^ rt. Keep kinks out of cord. Kinks or bending the cord too sharply may finally break the fine wires that carry the electricity. Broken wires may cut through the in sulation and touching each other, cause a short. Keep cords off the fl<wr. This is for their protection and for safety too. Danghng cords may trip the unwary. Donlt run ap pliance cords under a rug. Go ing over them with a vacuum cleaner and walking on ■them day after day will hasten cord failure. Durban, South Africa, has a $160,000,000 postwar reconstruc tion plan. Important nps For The Brooder House The right kind of windows and proper ventilation in the brooder house play a big part in suc cessful chick raising, says T. T. Brown, Extension poultry spe cialist at State College. It has been estimated that only about one poultry house in ten in North Carolina carries both of these features. The wrong kind of windows will cause chilling of the chicks and lead to overcrowding. Poo^ ventilation results in damp floors and litter, which encourages coccldlosls a d other diseases. Also, the chicks grow out and feather very Irregularly. The shed-roof brooder house, which faces the south. Is easy to ventilate, according to Brown. He suggests windows that pull in at the top, with shields on each side to prevent drafts from reaching the floor. There should be air outlets between the raft ers on the south side. Unless the moisture - laden warm air is allowed to escapo through these outlets between the rafters, the floor of the house will be damp and the chicks will not make proper growth. Windows that did« up or tide- wise, or wlndowa that «re hinced at the top and pull either out or in, should be changed. All such windows allow cold air to drop to the floor and, cause crowding of the chicks, r Proper air outlets between the rafters on the south side are an absolute essential for every good brooder house. Brooder house plan No. 63 gives full details and drawings showing the construction of windows and how to provide for good ventilation. A free copy of this plan may be obtained by writing the Poultry Department, State College. Raleigh or from the office of the county agent. Spring pigs should be vacci nated against cholera around weaning time, says Dr. 0. D. Orlnnels, agricultural experi ment station veterinarian at State college. Grow more oil crops this year to help meet war needs, says the war food administration. This means treating peanut seed, dusting the plants with sulphur, and more attention to the soybean crop.

(You’ll find his .weight listed in the tables below.) But 26 million other Americans can tell you how/ to tip the Kale« in your favor. It’s simple. Just start swinging now-before he take« a poke at you. This 7th War Loan doesn’t really get started until next month. But you (an get started now. Like the 26 million patriotic Americans on the Payroll Sav ings Plan, you can start putting an extra part of , your pay check—over and above your regular bond, purchases-into War Bonds right now. Then, when that 7th War Loan starts^ you’ll have a big part of your share of extra Bonds already bought and paid for. And every punch at your opponent helps lick theirs^ too. Start swingingl The reason your quota is so big this time is simple. 1st, whether we’re ñghting Germans and Japs, or Japs alone, there’ll be no easing up in this fight till every last enemy is on his knees—or dead. 2nd, to save time and work, there will be fewer War Loans this year. Only 2 instead of 3. That means 'we~musi tackle a bigger loan both times.' So don’t give that quota a chance to buifaio you. Start licking it right now. Sock away an extra slice of your pay into War Bonds this week and every week till your quota’s licked. ' It^s a tough customer to beat. But not one mil lionth as tough as the opponents seme of your friends and relative« are facing over their bayonets. FIND. YOUR QUOTA « i i AtiS.

FRIDAY, APRIL 27, 1945 “AU The Coimty Newi For Everybody"NO. 26 No Independent Ticket Will Be Offered For Town Offices But List Of Complaints Announced Because of the disinclination of some prominent Dem ocrats to cut across party lines even in a mimlcipal elec tion, a spokesman for the proposed independent ticket for commissioners for the town of Mocksville states that no candidates will be offered in the election of May 8; The present board of commissioners filed for re-elec tion and there was no opposition in the primary. Conse quently in the election on May 8 they will be unopposed, as will be W. M. Pennington for mayor. No opposition to Mr. Pennington was to have been offered on the inde pendent ticket. There has been little or no interest in the municipal election in recent years. Two years ago the total vote was only 68 and four years ago only 201 votes in a contested primary. Although many Democrats stated they did not wish to enter an election as an independent candidate, followers of both parties have freely èrpressed themselves as being in favor of à change of some of the members of the present board who have served for a long time. They said that such members were ultra-conservative in their views; that they had fought progressive measures artd that some times their private interests conflicted with the best in' terests of the citizens of the town. COMPLAINTS Claiming that they receive too little from the town for their tax dollar, some of the criticisms of the present board Include the following: , 1. Inadequate collection of garbage from homes and business houses, 2. No continuous effort made to clean up the back lots. It was agreed by all that Hugh Lagle was highly efficient but imderpaid and the town does not fiimish him enough men to do what he is asked to do. 3. Slack law enforcement, particularly on Saturday nights where beer drinking takes place. 4. Inadequate planning for recreation for the young people, particularly the city park. 5. Lack of upkeep of side streets In the town. 6. Lack of sufficient water supply to meet any extra need for any local industries—and no plan to overcome the shortage. 7. Indifferent attitude about attracting small, new industries which might còme here. 8. No effort made to relieve the housing shortage. 9. Unregulated taxicabs. New Hours for Ration Office Beginning- May 1, next Tues day, the war price and ration ing board will observe liew hours ior the pubilc. The ollice wUl be open from 10 a. m. to 12 o’clock each day of the week. Monday through Friday, It will reopen at 1 p. m. and remain open until 4:30 o’clock.

As we go to press the Russians have about two thirds of Berlin where the Nazis are using the subways to men ace the Reds from the rear. Some observers think that the final capture of Berlin may not be more than 48 hours away. There is a report that Hitler has been seriously in jured in Berlin but many think that he has already fled the city as have the other Nazi bigwigs. Meanwhile the British got around to a job that has long been expected. They dropped 12,000-pound earth quake bombs on Hitler’s chalet at Berchtesgaden and are reported to have wiped it off the map. It may be possible that Hitler and his gang may not be able to hole up in his redoubt in the Bavarian Alps. Third army tanks have almost reached the Austrian border, less ihan 80 miles from Berchtesgaden, and are within a hundred miles of the Russians to seal off Czecho* Slovakia in a great new trap. Stalin annoimced that Berlin was encircled and it Is estimated that 500,000 Germans are trapped. Some Russian forces have crossed the Elbe river on a 24-mile front southwest of Berlin and are only 17 miles away from American forces.

SAN FRANCISCO CONFERENCE, Forty-six United Nations are meeting at San Francisco. The meeting is not to write a peace. It is to lay down rules and regulations for world security. Many knotty problems lie ahead. Some of thera include the Polish question, multiple voting, trusteeship of islands. The Polish question is a thorn in the side of the conference. This country and Biritaln wants Poland represented by all elements of the country, so that it may be democratic, while Russia wants only the Warsaw communist govern ment to be the representatives of the government to be the representatives of the government. Stalin apparently thinks Poland will be controlled for the near future at any rate by the communists rather than by a democratic coalition and he signed a friendship and mutual assist ance pact with-.’the so-called Lublin government of War- saw.

WHAT TO DO WITH GERMANY As our troops advance deeper, into Germany the evi dence mounts in proof of «the horrible atrocities of the Germans—and there is small distinctions between the army and the civilian population. The German people, taught to think of themselves as superior people, suffered no pangs of conscience at their own diabolical deeds. They thought it quite right to deport, murder and starve millions of Jews, Poles and other peoples. The Allied armies are finding more and more of the evidences of mass murder of people being starved almost to death, and then shot or given gas. But now that the war has come home to them they have the nerve to complain. One titled lady, with hun dreds of starving Poles in sight, was indignant that the American officers should force her out of her castle. They are actually expecting America to pay them for war dam age—with no thought of reparations for the damage which they have done. In short, we have a whole nation of people who considered it quite proper for them to rob, murder, starve, torture other peoples, but that they were so above all others that they should be immune. We do not wish to create hatred, but there is such a thing as justice. Germany, by taking the sword invited the sword. The German people have no sense of guilt, no repentence. Even God Himself cannot forgive where there is no desire or capacity to receive forgiveness. Ger mans have reached the point of depravity which neces sitates force In overcoming them, and force and stern justice in controlling them. We have to face this situa tion frankly and deal with it on the face of its reality. A naval officer, writing to the Editor of the Washington Post, says; “In spite of the misery and barbarism inflict ed upon the world by the German nation for many years, and in spite of warnings that Just such a thing would happen, it is discouraging to find already the plea for moderation in treatment of the vanquished Germans. . . . I am sick of the pratting of the professional holy men, of cynical newspaper editorials. I am morally re volted by the calculated appeals of self-interested political statesmen. I am sickened by the holier-than-thou atti tudes of busy little club groups who salve their egos by condescending kindness to whimpering murderers. Let us put a stop to this morbid sentimentalism, this Insane refusal to be realistic . . . I refuse to believe that my com rades who have already died gave "up their lives foT less than the complete defeat of the German nation, for less than utter destruction of everything it stands for.” 1 Ammonia NoTloe Man (In drug store): “1 want some consecrated lye.” Druggist: “You mean concen trated lye."

Moore was awarded the Bronze Star for heroism while in action against the Japanese on Saipan with the Appleknock- ers of tOie famed 27th infantry division commanded by Maj. Gen. George W. Orlner. Presen tation of 'the medal was made by Col. Walter S. Winn, com manding officer of the Apple- knooker regiment. On June 30, Moore exposed himself to intense enemy flre to discover the location of enemy positions. On July 7, when his company encountered stubborn resistance, Moore, under with ering machine gun and rifle fire, stood erect and poured fire from his automatic rifle upon the en emy. This fire klled seven, and forced the remainder of the en emy to retreat. Private Moore’s cool, deliberate act of courage enabled his company to ad vance. ■ In addition to the Bronze Star, HOW TO TREAT AN ALLY It might help to do a bit of unbiased study of our Russian Allies, and make our attitude toward them con sistent with our honest discoveries. It would be much better than some of the talk about what to do with Ger many. We have no sympathy whatsoever with those American who belittle Russia, and urge mollycoddling of Germans. Such folks betray their Nazis sympathies. Let us not forget that hut for Russia Hitler would by this time be dominating the world. Let us not forget that American liberty is more secure, and thousands of Ameri can lives have been saved, because millions of Russians have died. One thing we do know for a certainty, and that is that a very definite campaign to create sympa thy for the Nazis is on, and that while some criticism of Russia is honest criticism, we should investigate every piece of it to see what lies behind it. A part of Hitler’s ability to rise to power lay in his creating the fear of Communism. When he got in power , he threw off the mask and turned on everybody. German agents are al ready scattering, and continuing their work. Big Peach Crop Seen For Nation Present prospects point to the largest early peach crop the Na tion has had In 20 years, accord ing to the Federal-State Crop Reporting Service of the State Department of Agriculture. The peach bloom was except ionally heavy In the 10 Southern early peach states, and growers are now concerned about getting the fruit thinned. Earlier than usual marketing of the crop throughout North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina, and Arkansas, where the bulk of the crop originates, was foreseen, Clyde Willis, crop reporting official, said Uie “freezing tem peratures could still reduce pros pects materially in these states, but the relatively large size of the fruit for this time of year minimizes the probability of ex tensive cold injury." He added that the light winter rainfall in most of the South eastern states is giving igrowers concern and continued' below- normal rainfall would "probably result in smaller sizes.” “The condition of the peach crop on April 1—and it has not materially changed since that time—averaged 86 per cent of normal,- the highest since re ports were begin In 1024. Con dition a year ago was 73; two years ago, 48; three years ago, 77; and the 10-year (1034-43) was 70,” Willis said. Decorated PFC. EDGAR L.

COTTON PRODUCT PRICES Wholesalers and retailers of a number of cotton pro ducts have been required by OPA, effective April 21, 1945, to share the absorption of increases in producers’ prices for these goods. Up to now, wholesalers have been ab-, sorbing the entire amount of the increases on all, of the affected commodities except bed linens and towels. The items covered include specified types of bed linens, huck and crash towels, terry products, corded napkins, 100 per cent American cotton blankets, blanket robe cloth, diapers, diaper cloth, flannels, print cloth grey goods and dimity bedspreads. As a result of OPA’s action, ordinary con sumers—other than institutianal—will not have to pay higher prices for the cotton prodUtcs listed, OPA said. AGRICULTURAL BREVITIES April 1 farm wage rates average 10 points above the October, 1944 peak, and 33 points, or more than 10 per cent, higher than a year ago. This is 335 per cent of the 1910-1914 average . . . Prices received by farmers for eggs in 1945 probably will average moderately above last year, when they averaged 33.8 cents per dozen, or 94 per cent of parity ... Nearly nine million persons out of the supply remaining available for farm work were working on April 1, as compared with 8,400,000 on January 1. Total farm em ployment on April 1 yas allttle more than one per cent smaller than at this time last year . . . In general, March, 1945, was among the most favoralbe Marches that early lamb producers have ever experienced,, says the Depart ment of Agirculture. However, because of generally abim- dant food and high level of lamb prices, movement to mar ket may be no earlier than usual . . . Although allocation of controlled materials for production of farm amchinery has been cut to 195,000 tons for the second quarter of 1945, fcs against 256,000 tons in the first quarter, an increase in allotments can be expected after V-E day, a stepped-up far.m machinery program being a "must” as soon as materials are available. HOME GROWN RABBITS Demands for food brought about by the wau, and shortages of beef, pork, mutton and poultry for civilian consumption has resulted in an Increase in the production of domestic rabbits of from 22 to 300 per cent, the Fish and Wildlife Service of the Department of Interior has announced. Rabbit meat is quickly produced—only 90 days are required from the time the doe is mated imtll the young rabbits are ready for the table. Since the civilian shortage of. red meat will be noticed mostly between now ent time an'^ late summer, rabbits now ready for breeding will producá summer meat. The householder with asmall back yard ca^n keep three or four does and a buck of the medium weigjth or heavier breeds and have all the rabbit meat an averaij^ge family will use. Any surplus can be sold to neigbors. RabÓ^it hutches can be constructed of scrap lumber, used poultry wire, crates and similar inexpensive material. Clean t^ble scraps, garden waste, lawn clippings and palatable weeof(fi can supplement the^r regular rations. ICE REFRIGERAT¿»BS Begfaining July domestic ice refrigerators to meet military and essential bivilian requirements may be made by any manufacturer wWo has received specific written in structions from the Wat Production Board for the pro duction of a specific num ^r of units in any given quarter, WPB ‘announced. As befot-e distribution of domestic ice refrigetrators is not restricted, and consumers need no permit to buy them. Authorisation for production of 74,000 domestic ice refrigetrators i^ the second quarter of 1945 have already been made publite, WPB said, anci additional authorization for production ^of 1,000 refrigerators may shortly be Issued.

WHAT TO DO WITH GERMANY As our troops advance deeper-into Germany the evi dence mounts in proof of *the horrible atrocities of the Germans—and there is small distinctions between the army and the civilian population. The German people, taught to think of themselves as superior people, suffered no pangs of conscience at their own diabolical deeds. They thought it quite right to deport, murder and starve millions of Jews, Poles and other peoples. The Allied armies are finding more and more of the evidences of mass murder of people being starved almost to death, and then shot or given gas. But now that the war has come home to them they have the nerve to complain. One titled lady, with hun dreds of starving Poles in sight, was indignant that the American officers should force her out of her castle. They are actually expecting America to pay them for war dam age—with no thought of reparations for the damage which they have done. In short, we have a whole nation of people who considered it quite proper for them to rob, murder, starve, torture other peoples, but that they were so above all others that they should be immune. We do not wish to create hatred, but there is such a thing as justice. Germany, by taking the sword invited the sword. The German people have no sense of guilt, no repentence. Even God Himself cannot forgive where there is no desire or capacity to receive forgiveness. Ger mans have reached the point of depravity which neces sitates force in overcoming them, and force and stern justice in controlling them. We have to face this situa tion frankly and deal with it on the face of its reality. A naval officer, writing to the Editor of the Washington Post, says: “In spite of the misery and barbarism inflict ed upon the world by the German nation for many years, and in spite of warnings that just such a thing would happen, it is discouraging to find already the plea for moderation in treatment of the vanquished Germans. . . . I am sick of the pra,tting of the professional holy men, of cynical newspaper editorials. I am morally re volted by the calculated appeals of self-interested political statesmen. I am sickened by the holier-than-thou atti tudes of busy little club groups who salve their egos by condescending kindness to whimpering murderers. Let us put a stop to this morbid sentimentalism, this Insane refusal to be realistic . . . I refuse to believe that my com rades who have already died gave up their lives for less than the complete defeat of the German nation, for less than utter destruction of everything it stands for.” I A JOKE A DAY 1 Am m onia Novloe Man (In drug store): "1 want some consecrated lye.” Druggist: “You mean concen trated lye.” Man: “It does nutmeg any dlf- f9rence. That’s what I camphor. What does It sulphur?” Druggist: "Fifteen scents. I never cinnamon with so much wit." Man: "Well, I should myrrh, myrrh 1 Yet 1 ammonia novice at it."—-Exchange.

It would be much better than some of the talk about what to do with Ger many. We have no sympathy whatsoever with those American who belittle Russia, and urge mollycoddling of Germans.

'____________ FARMERS ARE URGED TO RAISE CHICKENS DURING COMING WEEKS Farmers of Davie county can make a deflnite contribution to ward Increasing tihe nation’« supply of meait by raising chlck- cns for m«at during ihe, coming weeks, according to J. N. Smoot, chairman Davie County AAA committee. Pointing out that civilian con sumption of red nieat during 1945 is expected to be no more than 126 pounds per person, compared wltii about 147 pounds iast year, Chairman Smoot de clared that one of the “quick est ways to increase the. total meat isupply Is t(^ Increase the number of chickens raised and marketed for meat.” Civilian consumption of chick en In 1044, he said, was 24 pounds per capita, but present prospects for this year are only about 20 pounds per person. One of the principal reasons for this Is that military purchases now are taking practically all the broilers produced in the four major producing areas and all the canned chicken. Military requirements for this year are estimated at 670,000,000 pounds, he added. "To encourage production of more chickens for meat, na tional celling prices on broilers, fryers, and roasters will be ad vanced an average of 1.3 cents per pond on July 1. For pro ducers in thlr. county, this means an increase of 1.0 cents per pound In the ceiling price,” CORNATZER ^ m p o d a n t REDUCTIONS • S p n n ^ COATS! Coats of fine quality 100% wool.

"Farmers who get their chick ens now can have them ready for market before the usual fall supply of red meats moves to market. There appears to be an adequate supply of brooder houses, feed and other produc tion facilities for farmers to in crease substantially their pro ductlon of chickens for market ing for meat during the sum mer,” he added. Mr. Smoot als3 declared that the war food administration has contacted hatcheries to encour age them to expand hatching operations this spring to supply extra chicks needed for market ing this summer and that the numbers available to Davie county producers should be suf flclent to meet demands.

If you have, here’s some news of interest to you about getting mail to him. The navy mail service suggests: 1. Since newspapers will be months old before they arrive (Okinawa is 5,280 miles from Fleet Post Office, San Fran cisco) , families should clip items of news interest and enclose them in letter mall, rather than send the whole newspaper, 2. If a man is "guessed" to be in an invasion area, his fam ily and friends should wait for sometime before sending any parcel post ‘packages. And, if he is known to be in the far Pacific, ipackages with food or perishables should not be sent at all. 3. Send photographs, snap shots and newspaper items to your bluejacket over seas, and send them In first class mall. Enclosures cannot be sent in V-mail letters. ■ 4. Use V-mail as often as possible. Write short, frequent letters. Remember V-mail has air priority over all other classes of mall In an effort to Increase the volume. BUY WAR BONDS — STAMPS!
