SUGAR RATION CUT 25 PER CENT; CANNING ALLOTMENT ALSO PARED Washington— A 29 per cent cut in sugar ration was announc ed by the Office of War Informa tion, which declared United States sugar reserves to be at "rock bottom.". The new sugar stamp, numiber 30, good for five pounds, valid now, must last-four months in stead ol three, OWl announced, in behall of OPA and the War Food Administration.•# Home canning aaiotments also were slashed. Only 70 per e'cnt as much sugar will be avaUable for rationing as, in 1044, and the maximum 1945 canning allot ment will drop to IS pounds, compared with 20 pounds last year. No family, however large, may receive more than 120 pounds of canning sugar, i,as against the 1944 limit of' 160 pounds. Restaurants, hotels, school and other institutional users were cut conslredably, and such industrial users as bakers and canners also may expect a reduction on July 1 when their’ next allotment is due. “No increase in total sugar supply can be expected for more than a year,” said OWl dis couraglng any hope that speedy victory in Europe might make the reduction short-lived. The move was attributed to "a sharp reduction in sugar suppllesi tremendously Increased require ments lor liberated Europe and a rate of civUlan consumptiodji exceeding allocations," "Consumers this year for the llrst time in two . decades must depend entirely on current pro duction,” the announcement said, “domestic reserves are at rock bottom," lit Coast Guard ADVANCE PLAi The senior class ol Advance High school will present a com edy In three acts, "The Man In the Green Shirt," at the school on May 11 at 8:30 p, m.

Each week The Enterprise minunarl^i fhe war newa, both abroad and at home, 10 that readen majf get a quick, bird’s eye view of Important happenlngi. It has been a week of momentous war news. ^Immler made an offer of surrender to this country and Brlttün. The Allies and the Russians joined hands in two sectors on the western front. Berlin Is taken by the Russians. Mussolini is dead and Hitler is .reported dead. The war In Italy is over. The war in Europe Is on an "hour to hour” basis. ' WAB IN ITALY OVER ^ / The Italian war came to an abrupt close Wednesday when all Oerman land, sea and air forces In Italy and southern and western Austria surrendered uncondition ally. The surrender, signed last Sunday afternoon, was by the Oerman commander-in-chief In the southwest and the supreme commander of the SS and policé In Italy—to Allied officers including the Russians. It Is estimated that nearly 1,000,000 Oermans sur rendered and the Allies , may now advance to within 10 miles of Berchtesgaden without any opposition. ЗЪе troops Included remnants of. 22 Qerman divisions and six Italian Fascist divisions. Previously GrwslahW noted Fascist commander who was .reported executed, surren dered the Ligurian army and Qeneral Clark said the сал|- palgn In tialy was about over, f , , HOUR TO HOUR BASIS к.-; ‘ ^ • The war In Germany is on an “hour to hour” basis - and nobody would be surprised to hear of its end at any time. President Truman said he would make a radio speech on V-E day asking the people to refrain from cele bration and stay on their war jobs. ; |.^j : HIMMLER’S OFFER Himmler made an offer last Saturday to surrender Oermany to America and Britain but excluded Russia. It was promptly rejected and there are many reports that another offer will be made to include Russia. Coimt Bernadotte of Sweden is the intermediary. DOENITZ ANNOUNCEMENT Meanwhile the Hamburg radio, only large one left In Germany, said Hitler had been killed at his command post in the Reichchancellery in Berlin on Monday after noon and that Admiral Doenitz, head of the Oerman navy, had succeeded him. Doenitz asked the Oérmans to keep fighting. Many think the radio announcement is a hoax, al though Hitler mayhave been dead for some time. Himmler said only a few days before that Hitler was suffering from a cerebral hemorrhage. Th& announcement adds further confusion in Germany. Some observerai state the Nazis and Germany Army professionals are at odds atout what tp do with Germany now that the Hamburg state ment will only mean prolonging the war until the Allies can seize by arms those sections still held by the Germans. MUSSOLINI GONE Mussolini was shot in the back of the head last Sun day by Italian patriots at Como who captured him when he tried to. get into Switzerland. He was later hung by his heels in the public square at Milan and spat upon. He was buried in a wooden coffin in a potter’s fkld without Identification. Kilfed wUh him was his beautiful young mistress and 17 of his Fascist followers. ALLIES JOIN HANDS U,.,S. and Russian troops joined hands on April 25 but thei official Joining was made two days later at Tor- gau which is 75 miles south of Berlin. The announcement was made simultaneously in Washington, London and Moscow. Since that time U. S. Ninth Army forces have made a second junction with the Red army and Patton’s Third (Continued on page 8) 11 )'1,1 , ! ( , ^ ^ > I PAGE2 THE MOCKSVILLE (K. C.)

Scuppemong Grape In North Carolina The Musct^ine grape, of whliA the Scuppemong Isottae most popular variety. Is the most Im portant species In the isoutb. Particularly, should be of in terest to all North Carolinians because it Is native to Uie east ern part of the state and many of Its varieties originated there, says M. E. Gardner, head of the horticulture department of State college. There are a number of opin ions regarding Its origination but most people believe that the Scuppemong originated In this state, either on Roanoke Idand or In Tyiell county. At any rate, the honor of nam ing the Scuppemong belongs to a newspaper published in Ra leigh In 1811, “The Star.” Dr. Calvin Jones, a noted naturalist, and Thomas Henderson were the editors at that time. It was probably Dr. Jones who named the grape u he was serv ing as the agricultural editor of the paper, and took the name of the grape from the Scupper- nong river along whidi so many plantings of the grape had been made at that time. Some people believe that the original vine ot this grape Is still growing on Roanoke Island, however, Gardner feels that this Is a mistake as the vines on the UQand appear to have been planted in rows. It is true, he says, that theM vines are very old, but not so old as some others to be found In Tyrrell county, from which the grapei on Roanoke Island were probably brougiht.

As a consequence, they said, poultry processhig plants of the state are now able to operate only about one day per week, and housewives are finding It virtually Impossible to obtain any chicken meat in the grocery stores of North Carolina. Basing/his remarks on a sur vey Just completed by the war food administration, marketing specialist Marlon Dllday charged that "out-of-state buyers and truckers are taking poultry out of North Carolina. Breeding flocks are being sold and per manent damage to the poultry industry will result.” He appealed to farmers to re frain from selllne^ their chickens to “anybody who happens to come along with a truck and an attractive price,” “Any farmer who sells a fryer, for more than 30.5 cents per pound or a hen for more than 27 cents per pound is co operating with the black mar ket,” said Dllday. He reported that North Car olina’s largest poultry processing plant, the Siler City Poultry Ex change, which has a capacity of 12,000 chickens per day, can ob tain birds for only one day’s operation per week, while two in Raleigh — Hudson’s Seafood and Paul try and White Gate Poultry and Egg farm—are to gether , operating only one and one-half days per week. BUY WAR BONDS — STAMPS! State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT . N. C. state Collece Just as an engine knock, may be a sign of trouble in an auto mobile, so any strange noise in a household motor—in the gash ing machine, sewing machine, vacuum cleaner or refrigerator— calls for Investigation by a re pairman, say home manage ment specialists. A rattle Is a sign that something Is loose and needs tightening. Knocks or bangs may mean serious trouble. The housewife should stop the motor Immediately and And out what the trouble is. The wrong side of thè garment Is ofteri the right side for iron ing, say clothing specialists. They advise ironing on the wrong side all dark-colored cot tons, also linens, rayons, satin Weaves, crepes and wools—the last always protect by a preM- ing cloth.. When garments are turned to the right side, they may need to have a few wrinkles smoothed out, but the less the iron Is used on the right side, the better the appearance. White and light-colored cot tons are ironed on tJie right side. Heavy fabrics or parts of clothes that are double in thick ness .generally need to be Ironed on both sides. Damask, for ex ample, is Ironed flrst on the wrong, then on the right side. Embroidery may be smoothed out quickly on the right side, then ironed on the wrong side over a thick, soft pad or Turk ish towel. Collars, culls, pockets, hems and heavy seams are Iron ed first on 'the wrong, then on the right side. If the fabric shows shine where it is pressed on the right side, press over a cloth or tissue ipaper.

President Harry Truman, the man called to occupy the position long held by a man universally acknowledged to be among the greatest men pf our times, has made a most favorable beginning and has inspired the nation and the world with, confidence in his ability to carry on. His utterances and actions have been marked ,with sim plicity, directness and deep earnestness. He has shown a deep understanding of the ideals and plans of the late leader, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and has expressed in no uncertain terms the determination to carry on as he be lieved Roospvelt would have carried on. In the course of human events Harry Truman was not selected as Vice President because the Democratic convention believed him to be a man of outstanding abil ity, but becauM he was a likeable fellow, and the turn of political events seemed to make his selection a weight in the balance towards election of the ticket. But, as the newsmen have gone over the record of his life, they have discovered that he is a man with more ability than gen erally accredited with, and a man who has a mind of his own tmd able to use it. His great gift of common sense may be the needed element in curying on the plans of a great intellectual to successful completion. President Truman has the confidence of both Dem^ ocrats and Republicans, and he stands a good chance of uniting the minds and interests of both parties in a de termined effort to win the war, and to make a lasting peace. Such a good beginning, we sincerely believe, is prophetic of a most useful and successful administration. Our prayers go up for President Truman, and we pledge whatever help we may be capable of rendering to our new Commander in Chief, ?O ff 1« COtD STÁNOA»AJOKEADAY "You’r« ilbokinft «down; In the mouth, Macl" i;; i '; "Ay, I am that.

He’s run out of whiskey.” "Nae-*l’ve run oot o’ teeth I” De8ei*ving Some Bouquets For their handling of the news covering the death of President Roosevelt, and for their programs during the period of national mourning, the radio networks deserve the thanks of the entire American nation. From first to last there was a spirit of reverence, and such accurate coverage of events that the whole nation was drawn to gether in à common experience and uplifted, even as they sorrowed. The bringing together of the many details of ej^ressions throughout the whole country made a pic ture and created an atmosphere which interpreted the man and the event to the people, and acquainted the peo ple with each other and their nation. No one event in all American history has so imified the people, and helped them to a fresh understanding of their own Democratic ideals, and radio was the agency through which it was done. This was public service of the highest sort, and it will bear fruit in helping to solve thè problems which lie ahead. Incidentally, we should like to point out a few items which might weU become permanent policies and prac tices in radio service. Even though we were in the midst of mourning, it was a relief to get away, even for a few days, from a lot of iatuff which passes for music. In those days we had music which comforted our corrowing hearts; we had music which elevated and inspired; we had music which touched the deepest and best of our nature. We shall continue to possess such a nature, and radio can perform a great service to American thought and life by giving us music which nurtures and nurtures that better self. Prevent Cannibalism In Poultry Flocks Serious losses may occur In poultry flocks If cannibalism Is allowed to develop. At the very first sign ot feather pulling, hip or back picking, vent picking, or tadl picking, the poultryman must take measures to control the. condition. ' It Is thought that the trouble may be' due to overcrowding of tihe birds or some feeding defl- clencjr, according to the Exten sion poultry specialists at State college. They recommended sev eral changes to help correct the situation. First give the flock more room, including out-of-door range or yarding, If possible. Second, use an antl-plck salve or paint about 25 per cent of the flock (both picked and non-plcked birds) with tar. Add axldltlonal salt to the mash at the rate of 1 pound to each 100 pounds of m a^ for several weeks. As to feeding, the Irlrds may be given 5 pounds of whole oats In hoppers per 100 birds for each day, with green feed not exceed ing an ounc;B to a bird. Addi tional meat scraps may be fed but this practice should be dis continued if diarrhea develops or an Increaw of blood spots In the eggs. Darken the nests by hanging sacks in front of them. Hang a head of cabbage, or some salty meat skins, alx>ut a foot above the floor so, that the birds will have something to pick. No one seems to know the ex act answer as to just what does cause canntt>alism but there are many remedies for correcting the condition. We Are Democratic After all, we liked that little break at the beginning of President Truman’s first public speech after becoming President. It was difficult for him to realize that he was playing the chief role, and started out with his speech be fore being properly presented. We heard the presiding officer say, “Walt a minute Harry until I present you.” Harry obligingly waited. Imagine, if you can, Winston Churchill presenting His Majesty King George, saying, “Walt a minute George until I present you.” Somehow, we like that "Walt a minute Harry." De mocracy can be very informal and yet not lost Its dignity. This'country is safe as long as we are so genuinely demo cratic—with simple dignity. PpR VlOTORT BUT WAR ВОШВ AND STil Farm Safety Rules Mus Be Followed Emphasizing the fact that keeping fit on the home front is equally as Important as keep ing fit on the war front, F. S. isioan, farm labor supervisor for the State college extension serv ice, points out that every farm worker must recognize and ob serve certain essential points in farm safety. In the first place, he says, no one should attempt to gd out from town or office to do heavy farm work who has not first h ^ a thorough physical check up to be sure he Is fit for the job. To this, the farm worker must add tne proper amount of sleep each night, and wise eat ing habits. In carrying out the work on the farm, the new wrker should wear comfortable clothes—loose, slopy, and ragged clothes are dangerous around farm machin ery. T h e farai worker should also learn to work ,the rl^ht way, which includes such sim ple, but important details as keeping one’s balance on ladders, avoiding haytlme hazards, prac ticing safe tractor, operations, and using care In working with livestock. Even in carrying out farm re pair jobs, Sloan says, there is a margin ot danger' that every farm operator shoul^, recognize, He should put special emphasis on using the right tool for e^ery job, using only toois that are in good condition,' and practicing the right procedure In using every tool.

More pounds of feed are re quired to produce each pound of live roaster or capon than to produce each pound of live broil er or fryer, says Prof. Roy Dear- styne, in charge of the Poultry Department at State College. "As growing chickens Itlcrease In size, relatively more feed Is used for maintenace of the body and re latively less Is used for growth." he explains. “Poultrymen should seriously consider this fact in times such as these, when there Is a meat shortage and an urgeni; need for a constant flow of poul try meat to the market.” 'Q. Can ÿou tell me how I can find the seed of the sweetgum tree? A. '!The seed of the sweetgum tree Is produced In the prickly balls which grow on the tree and drop off during the fall,” says R. W. Graeber, In charge of Extension forestry at State College. " The balls^ should be gathered before they drop from the tree and be stored in a dry place. When ; thé balls are thoroughly dry, thé seed can be shaken out. First, y<ra will see a small brownish gralni about like dry sand. Then, oh continued shaking, the winged seed will dropout.” , Q. I am now with the Pacific fleet. How can I get traihlng for a.Job as tobacco buyer? A. “I am sending you bulletins on the different phases bf to bacco production, marketing, and handling,” says E. G. Moss of the Tobacco Branch Experiment Station at Oxford. ”You are for tunate in having some tobacco backgroun^. Should you wish to become a tobacco buyer, the only way I can suggest Is for. you to contact a tobacco company when you return to the States and take a Job with them In handling and packing tobacco. By this plan you will learn their methods of hand ling and their grades, all of which you must know to be come a successful buyer.” Bot infestations In workstock seem to be heavier than last year, says Howard Stamey of State“ CbHegeraiteF a5iei»aing a number of horse and mule clinics In the mountain coun ties. , POUITRY WANTQ) ALL HENS, POUND 27c ROOSTERS, POUND 1 8 c EGGS, DOZEN Z2c The Winston Poultry Co. has purchased the Mocksville Poultry Co. formerly owned by Jack Bitzick and we give you top market prices for your poultry and eggs every week day of the year—not just one day a week.

Cheap seeds are/ in the long run, the most costly Now Is the time to plan to har vest. crimson clover seed, vetch, or rye grass seed for. a AAA pay ment of $3.50 an acre, but not to exceed $87.50 per farm. Hessian Fly Causes Serious Grain Loss A corp of wheat in Wake county, seeded 25 days after the normal fly-free date for that section, which is Octo1?er 20, should have made a relatively good crop but it has been almost totally destroyed by the Hessian fly. The Infestation did not begin ii> this field but' in an adjoining field, which was seeded bn Sep tember 15. Here the Hessian fly killed about 50 per cent of the wheat plants last fall and built up a large inf esta tioni ^hlchln turn attack the later-seeded wheat this spring because it was much more succlent. J. Myron Moxwell, Extension entomologist at State' College, saya that formers must be care ful to observe the fly-free dates in the state: October 1 to B for the Mountains; October 20 in the central section of the state; and. October 25 to 27 on the Coast; Thé practice of seeding wheat in theearly sown temporary graz ing crops in September is par ticularly dangerous, according to Maxwell. Even though the ani mals graze the crops rather closely, still a ^rge infestation of th’ e Hessian fly Is built up which will damage wheat crops not only on the home farm but also on surrounding farms. “A farmer may get by an early seeding of wheat for a year or two but there come a time when he will be sorry that the ever followed this practice,’” Max well says.“ ' We cannot be too careful about the seeding dates for. our wheat cropi." TANKEE SHORTSTOP * 6 e f By Jack Sords Dairy Show Planned By Asheville Group Flans have been made for the first iuniqr Dairy Cattle show for the Mountain area to'be held in Asheville early in Oc- tober,ysays J. 'A. Arey, extension dairyman at State college. Agricultural leaders and' busi ness men of Asheville, at a meet ing in the Buncombe county court house, drew up plans for thé new show to be sponsored by the Asheville Merchants as sociation. Prizes of $2,000 per year will be made available for the show by the merchants. Territory to be Included in the show will comprise the coun ties of Buncombe, Cherokee, Clay, Oraham, Haywood, Henderson, Jackson, Macon, Madison, Mlt- ohell, Swain, Yancey, McDowell, Rutherford and Polk. A steering committee com posed of county farm agents and vocational teachers from the area Included was appoint ed at the organizational meet ing. County agents on the com mittee are: W .R. Palmer, Ashe ville, John Hollamon, Hender sonville; and Howard Clapp of Waynesville. The vocational teachers are: J. M. Nesbitt, Weaverville; E. J. Whitmire, Franklin; and J. H. Sparks, Candler. This new calf show is one of three other Junior Dairy Cattle shows to be held In North Car olina next fall, these will be held in Charlotte, Lexington and Fayetteville. A state - wide show for Negro youth will also be held at Greensboro In Septem ber. Five-Acre'Cotton Contest Sugestions A number of Important pointa should be taken into consider ation by those farmers who en roll in the state five-acre cot ton contest and attempt to pro duce from 12 to 15 balea of cot ton tfn 5 acres, say Extension agronomists at State College. The very best land should be selected—land that is well drain ed, has a high moisture holding capacity, and Is capable of us ing a relatively large amount of fertilizer to advantage. The agronomists suggest that the area be carefully examined to see that it has no weak spots in it, as this will pull down the total yields. Land that has had good cover crops turned under is especially suitable for the con test. In addition to the use of good seed, the agronomists empha size,the Importance of having a relatively large number of stalks of cotton to the acre. In previous cotton contests some prize winning growers have used three - foot rows with 2 to 4 stalks In the hill and the hills about 8 to 12 Inches apart. Prize winners have also used liberal amounts of fertilizer at planting and relatively large amounts in accordance with the ability of the land to utilize the fertilizer. Where large amounts of fer tilizer are ussd at planting, tha agronomists suggest that the fer tilizer be applied about 10 days before planting or with a side placement machine, so that the stand of cotton will not be dam aged. In the contests in the pasft, most of the prize winning grow ers have topdressed just after chopping and have made only one applicatlgn of topdresser. Eating more eggs at this sea son will have the double-barrel ed effect of bolstering the war time diet and utilizing a plen tlful food.

S. Army forces closed In on the fortified lines (map A) where strong Jap units were standing in the defense of Naha, local capital, and landed on Tsukan Island off Nakagusuku Bay. Though Marines continued sweeping through light op position toward the north of the island (map B) observers believe that the fighting In the south would develop Into an extended campaign. The ground dominated by our forces Is shaded In the map at upper rljfht. Okinawa’s strategic near ness to China and Japan, Which makes its defense vital to the enemy, is shown in map at upper left. MOIIEABOirr WARNEWS Is nearing a juncture with the Russians in Austria. CIJTIINO GERMANY TO PIECES Meanwhile the Allied armies are cutting Germany and German-held territory to pieces, despite peace rumors and about the way that General Elsenhower said the end would come. The strongest points still held Include Den mark and Norway, where the Germans are reported hold ing fiercely; Hitler’s Alpine redoubt where our forces are only 40 miles from Berchtesgaden; Czechoslovakia and the port areas with Hamburg as the hub where British troops are less than 20 miles away. END OF BERLIN NEAR The end of Berlin is hear and may comie at any time. The Russians have .taken more than 100 blocks of the city’s administrative center and a Moscoy correspondent says what was once the world’s fourth largest cUy is now a mass of rubble. It is now definitely established that the American troops halted at the Elbe river to let the Russians tUce Berlin, it was on an order from Allied supreme head quarters. Nothing was said at the time because the Ger mans might have withdrawn troths from the western front. PACIFIC FIGHTING ' Fighting on Okinawa is still bitter Ibut progress is being made. General Bucker says the. job is to kill as many Japs as possible as soon as possible with the least possible loss of lives bf our men. Our losses are less than one man hurt for every Jap killed. Our total casualties through April 27 was 11,413 of which 1,847 were killed, 9,148 wotmded and 418 mlSslng.^ The Jap killed through April 25 were 21,260. Though not yet confirmed by General MacArthur, the Japs and Australians say we have made an emphlbl ous Invasion of Borneo, one of Japan’s richest oil ^nd rub ber conquests. \ SAN FRANCISCO CONFERENCE There has been considerable comment that the l^an Francisco conference has gotten off to a bad start. But we are reminded that differences will occur and that the 'OH BOY-HERE COME OUR BUDDIESI' fbiai result will be a conititutiqá to p ^ d e a framewoik ifoir. world iecurlty. Considerable criticism has been made by obaervers over the seating of Argentina as a member, denying a Rus sian request for delay, and at the same time refusing to recojihizë the' Warsaw Fbllsh delegation as a member. The explanation is that this country supported a requeirt by Látin American countries to seat Argentina if they In turn would give Russia the three seats she wanted. Commentators freely predict that no conference will succeed unless this country and Russia agree to work to gether for peace. Molotov and Eden may leave within a few days because of the pressing problems of the war in Europe and thçlr leaving Is expected to prolong decisions. The Government needs and asks Its citizens In the 178th week of the war to: 1. Stay in the fight against a wartime rise in prices. Inflation will remain a danger until supply and demand regain a normal balance. Bu;/ only what you need. Save your money for the better products to come after the war. 2. Ask your local salvage committee whether your commui^lty has tin collection facilities. If so, save and turn in all discarded tin cans. 3. Serve all the daytime hours you can space If you are a trained Nurse’s Aide. Employ the training the Red Cross has given you, thus releasing registered graduate nurses to use their special skills. AUTOMOBILE BRAKES ; ' An automobile brake check program, sponsored by the International Association of Chiefs of Police In co- bjpera|tion with Government agencies, started April 15 and will end June 1. Purpose bf the program is to help isave pas^nger cars from the scrap heap, to maintain adequate transportatloh for war workers, and to reduce traffic accidents. In 1044, It is estimated, some 250,000 cars were scrapped after they were damaged beyond re pair in accidents. To determine whether your brakes are adequate to stop your car In time, a simple brake check Is récommended. The check Is made by placing an ob ject one inch thick at the base of the brake pedal, anc p uling down the brake pedal. If It strikes the object before the brakes begin to take hold, they are, Inadequate and may be in dangerous condition. Between April 15 rad June 1 traffic officers will check pasiwnger cars in volved (1) In accidents, (2) In traffic violations In which c^s áre moving, and (3) cars operated In a manner In dlcating faulty brakes.

AGRICULTURAL BREVITIES In 1944 the European corn borer caused a corn crop loss of over $22,000,000. Corn borer surveys in the fall of 1944 revealed a potential Infestation that can cause Increased losses in 1945, If weather conditions are favor able to the pest. Because of the early spring, safe dates for the disposing of stalks and stubble of corn and other coarse-stembied crops and weeds may have to be ad vanced In all areas. . . . Since Cheddar cheese produc tion Is expected to Increase this year, supplies for civil ians In 1945 may be equally as large as they were In 1944 . . . Most dependable way to prevent hog cholera Is to keep the herd safely Immunized either by the seriim- virus method, or by use bf the newer crystal-violent vac cine.

Many books hay« been so muti lated. that stamps are missing or so frayed that their number can hardly be determined. Many booics in this condition with sugar stamp 13 missing have been brought to the ration board for replacement. This cannot be done without the approval of the board which may take from 30 to 90 days. For your own convenience you are urged to place your ration books in a folder so they will be usable during the period they are valid. Lost books will not be reissued until an inquiry is made by the board.

After many tobacco farmers reported to county agent, George Hobson, that the blue mold had almost completely wiped out their tobacco plants, he contacted county agents by telephone In the tobacco growing sections in the eastern part of the state, and found that the farmers there are through setting their crop and have an abundance of plants left, over. Edmund Aycock, county agent at Kinston, reported that tobacco growers there were throut^ set ting tobacco, and were beginning to plow up the plant beds. He thought it would not be neces sary to go that far to find planti, as the farmers around Smith- fleld and Goldsboro were also through setting, and would be wUling to furnish plants to oar growers at a very reasonable price, probaidy at |1 per thou sand, which would pay for the fertilizer on the plant beds.

He also warns grow ers not to secure plants from the Wilson or OreenvlUe area, aa there has been an outbreak ot black tfiank. It Is mderstood that several farmm from the county went Wednesday to secure enough plants to set their crop.

Gemany surrendered unconditionally to the Al lies last Monday morning at 2:41 a. m. (French time). The formal capitulation was in the big red schoolhouse at Iteims, France, headquarters of General Eisenhower. President Truman and Prime Minister Churchill made an officii announcement of the surrender at 9 a. m., e. w. t., on Tuesday. A similar announcement was expected to be made in Moscow. Churchill said the surrender was to become effective at one minute past midnight Tuesday but that the order to cease firing began Monday; DAY OF PRAYER President Truman proclaimed Sunday, May 13, a day of prayer in thankfulness for the final and tmconditional surrender of Germany and in memory of those who have given their lives in the struggle. 'me President also urged all Americans to stick to their posts until Japan was beaten into unconditional sur* render. Victory Is only half won^ he warned. OERMAN SIGNER Signing of the surrender for Germany was Col. Gen. Gustaf (Alfred) Jodi, new chief of staff; for the supreme Allied command, Lieut. Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, Eisen* hower’s Chief of Staff; for Russia by General Ivan SuslO' parov, member of a military mission on the western fronts for France by General Francois Sevez.* Sixteen newspaper and radio correspondents and photographers were alsa present. Thus the war came to an end five years, eight months and seven days after Hitler Invaded Poland. Still all of the fighting is not over for battles still raged in Czechoslovakia where Nazi General Ferdinand Schoer- ne!r defied the Doenitz order to' lay down arms. Negotiations for the surrender lasted 33 hours with General Smith carrying the burden for the Allied com mand. Friedeburg tried to surrender to Britain and the United States but he was promptly turned down and told to get somebody who could sign for totaU surrender of all German forces to all of the Allies. FIRST NEWS OF SURRENDER The first news of the surrender came, last Monday morning at 9:35 a. m., eastern war time, when Edward Kennedy, chief of the Associated Press western front staff, telephoned the story from Paris to London where it was relayed to this country. Kennedy’s great scoop caused SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters American Expeditionary Forces) to ban all filing by the Associated Press corre spondents in the European Theatre of Operations for nearly seven hours and when the ban was lifted Kennedy was in definitely suspended from filing. The reasoh no official confirmation, came for nearly 24 .hours was that Washington, London and Moscow wished to make the announcement simultaneously. It was stated from London Monday that Churchill and Tru man were ready to make the announcement at noon Mon day but that Stalin was not ready at that time. ' Everybody wondered liow the Kennedy story passed the censors and the answer appears to be that British censors had no special Instructions on handling surrender stories, and since Kennedy’s iitory originated abroad, and was only being relayed through London, under standard British censorship practice there was no question raised about passing it. The British Broadcasting Company said one of the reasons for delaying the Qfficlal announcement was the alow German military communications; that it would take hours for the German high command to relay the sur render order to all troops and that such radio transmitters as l^ey had were^too feeble to carry very far.

Community Newspapers North Carolina community newspapers, like many other institutions, are rapidly changing. They are^ becom ing better edited, better printed and adopting better business methods. These improvements are normal and to be expected in a rapidly-changing world. And small town newspapers of this state are in the vanguard of the nation. Such evidence is witnessed by the fact that two of the state’s weeklies, the Elkin Tribune and the Skyland , Post at West Jefferson, have recently won national recogni tion. The Tribune, a long and consistent winer in state and national contests, was adjudged second in the nation for general excellence—a heady honor of which Harvey Laffon, publisher, and his staff should justly cherish. The Skyland Post also won second place in the nation for community service for the work it did last summer in fighting the spread of polio in Ashe county. Ed i^der- sori is publisher of this excellent community newspaper but his wife, Stella, runs it since Ed’s time is largely engaged in similar enterprises at Brevard and Forest City. It does not reflect less credijt on Ed, however, but illustrates how fortunate he is to haye a wife who is gifted, able and a hard worker. A great deal of hard, consistent work is necessary to publish a community newspaper—the dream of the city newspapermen notwithstanding. Stella’s success demonstrates another change in small newspapers: the increasing importance of women in run ning them. ' There are an increasing дитЬег of women in our opinion, such as former school teachers, who will find a satisfying and useful outlet for their curosity, energy and social aptitude in commimlty newspaper work. Indeed many develop into first-rate executives and owners, such as Beatrice Cobb, Stella Anderson, Mrs. Mcdullough, Addle Mae Cooke, Mrs. Swindell—to mention some In this jstate. Many women occupy vital roles In the operation of small town newspapers, particularly In these war times. They work oil over the place. Including the composing room. We are very fortunate to have one such with us— Ruth McQuage, wife of the editor who manages In some mysterious way to run a home at the same time. Un- ..Questlonably_the-Lord_must.Jpye_the ^untry editor.to endow so many of them with “the cream ofthe crop.” The backbone of a community newspaper Is a chronicle of the small doings and here women are in their element. They have a keen appreciation of the joys, sorrows, ac complishments, aspirations and commonplace events of their neighbors. A circle meeting can become a “town meeting of the air” with more excitement for the woman than a few-and-far-between mystery murder for the editor. A mere personal In the paper can and often does evoke an hour’s lively conversation for women. And the average woman Is far more sensitive to the needs for social Im provement of the community than the average male. A feood portion of the time the editor of the community newspaper, who is generally the publisher, is necessarily occupied with the “bread and meat” end of the business. Cansequently, there Is a wide, expanding field In com munity newspaper work for the bright young woman who is Interested in a career and a place where she can both have a lot of fun and be a vital part of the community. COME WHAT MAY! THE SAN FRANCISCO CONFERENCE One of the most momentous gatherings of our time, and perhaps, the greatest in the history of mankind is now taking place In San Francisco, California. Represen- .tatlves of the great leading powers are gathering to take stock of the world situation, and to make a serious effort to deVise ways for the peaceful settlement of issues which may arise between the nations of the world. The voices of the small nations will be heard, and heard with effec tiveness. The great powers will give earnest considera tion to their appeals, and they will have weight In deter mining the articles which may be drawn up by the con ference. This conference cannot make peace by Itself, but it can lead the world Into framing an instrument which will enable the nations of the world to live together In peace and prosperity. The conference cannot wave a magic wand and, presto, the world will be at peace, l^ey can only organize the spirit, the heart, the mind of the peoples of the world. Therefore, the peoples of the world should be thinking, praying, and speaking for peace. Prayers should be offered by Christians, Jews, Mo hammedans, and all other groups of peoples who are seeking to know Qod, and to know Him in peace and happiness. One hopeful thing at the moment is the fact that our leaders have prayed and they have asked our people to. pray. This time we must ask God to the peace conference. A NATION GONE MAD When Hitler published Mein Kamp, people outside of Germany read it and smiled. They could not believe that sane people would accept such a crazy philosophy of life. Even at the beginning of the war, many, far too many, Americans looked for a revolt in Germany. It took us long years to leam that Hitler was In dead earnest, and that the German people had full^ accepted him and his philQSOphy. As the world has seen the result of that philosophy in all the horrors which Germans have per petuated upon the world, it has come home to the mind and hearts of decent peoples that the whole German na tion is depraved, Insane and diabolical. Now, our soldiers are witnessing the sufferings of .American solders held prl£K>ners. It was difficult for them to believe, even after they had heard of German mass murders and other ¡atrocities. The Alliied world will itself commit a crime against mankind if they do not bring those criminals to justice. We should be motivated,.not by hate or revenge, but by a stern sen№ of justice. Hitler has actually de stroyed Germany. His whole policy and actions have drawn upon him and the German people the physical forces which he and his Germany created. They are learning that, “he that taketh the sword shall perish by the sword. Germany’s cup of iniquity has become full, and'now Germans drink from ll^ th e cup which they themselves filled.

OPACAUTIONS AGAINST SHOE VIOUTIONS Charlotte—The placing of in fants' leather shoes on the ra tion lists May 1 by the OPA caused a number of schemes to be developed by shoe buyers to circumvent the regulations with one of the favorites being the old return merchandise racket which has been used ¡before when other commodities were placed on the ration lists, ac- Rording to OPA authorities. The return merchandise racket works like this. As soon as a customer hears that a certain commodity is to be rationed he goes to the stores and buys up all of It he can get. Then after the ration date becomes effec tive, he takes the merchandise back on some pretext that it fails to meet his needs and de mands that he be given ration stamps for it. The Charlotte district OPA of ficials yesterday were receiving complaints from throughout the district about the racked work ing in regard to the infants shoes, according to C. D. Parker, shoe rationing execu tive. Persons who heard that the 0-4 shoes were to be rationed M ay.l ru^ed to the shoe stores and bought as many of the tiny shoes as they could get. After May 1 they take the ^ oes back contending that they do not fit and demanding that they be al lowed either to exchange the tiny shoes for adult footwear or be given their money back along with a new shoe ration stamp. ':№e ration stamp, of course, is used to buy footwear elsewhere, the officials said. Capturad 6«n#ral ELBAVILLE Bill Kester and son, Oraig, of High Point , spent the week end with Mr. and Mrs. R. C.

PAGES THIMOCKS¥HXI(N.G.)FSroAY,MAYll,lM8 MOBB ABOUT WAR NEWS OEBMANS ANNOVNCE FIRST The Oerman radio, however, was the first one to make the announcement at 8:38 a. m. J^ n d ay m p r^ g in broadcast which was unconfirmed for about an hour untU Kennedy’s dispatch came through. KENNEDY’S STORY Kennedy’s story was dated from Reims, France, and was as follows: Oermany surrendered unconditionally to the western Allies and Russia at 2:41 a. m. French time today. (This was at 8:41 p. m., eastern war time Sunday.) The surrender took place at a little red schoolhouse which is the headquarters of General Elserüiower. The surrender which brought the war in Europe to a formal end after five years, eight months, and six days of bloodshed and destruction was signed for Germany by Col. Gen. Gustav Jodi. Jodi is the' new chief of staff of the Cterman Army. It was signed for the supreme Allied command by Lieut, Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, chief of staff for General Eisen hower. ' . It was also signed by Gen. Ivan Susloparoff for Russia and by Gen. Francois Sevez for France. General Elsenhower was not present at the signing but immediately afterward Jodi and his fellow delegate, Gen. Admiral Hans George Friedeburg, were received by the supreme commander. They were àsked sternly if they understood the sur render terms imposed upon Germany and if they would be carried but by Germany. They answered yes. ' Germany, which began the war with a ruthless attack upon Folaild, followed by successive aggressions and bru tality in internment camps, surrendered with an appeal to* the victors for mercy toward the German people and armed forces. After signing the full surrender, Jodi said he wanted to speak and was given leave'to do so.. “With this signature,” he said to soft-spoken German, *'the German people and armed forces are for better or worse delivered into the victors’ hands. “In this war, which has lasted more than five years, both have achieved and suffered more than perhaps any other people in the world.” ' MOSCOW ANNOUNCEMENT Moscow announced the surrender of Germany to the Russian people at 1:10 a. m. on Wednesday, 10 hours and 10 minutes after President Truman and Churchill pro claimed V-E day. The final articles of capitulation were signed in bomb- torn Berlin, which ratified the military surrender at Reims, Frfmce. Signers for Germany included Field Marshal Keitel, chief of the High Command; Admiral Friedeburg, head of the navy; Col, Gen. Stumpf, head of the Air Forcé. Signing for the Allies were Air Marshal Tedder, General Elsenhower’s deputy commander; Marshal Zhukov for the Russians, General Spatz, head of the U, S, Strategic Air Forces, and General de Tassigny, head of the First French army, witnessed the signing. TERMS OF SURRENDER The terms of the surrender bind the Oerman High Command to do the following: 1—To surrender unconditionally to Gen. Dwight D, Elsenhower and the Soviet High Command all forces on land and sea and in the air. 2—To order all military authorities and forces to stop activities at 12:01 a, m, Wednesday and remain in position occupied at that time. 3—Not to scuttle or damage any ship, vessel or plane, 4—To issue, and to ensure the carrying out of any orders issued by Eisenhower and the Soviet command, . 5—To realize that the surrender will be supplanted by any general instnunent of surrender imposed by or to behalf of the United Nations applicable to Germany and the German armed forces as a whole. By the surrender terms any German troops who re mained under arms at 12:01 a, m, Wednesday became guerrillas and bandits, deprive(^ of the protection of the laws of war. The German High Command received one copy of the military surrender terms. Eisenhower had one, France one, Russia one. The Germans had also an Allied fleet order which specified: 1—All German and German controlled ships were to report to the nearest radio station and receive orders to go to ports, 2—Warships, auxiliaries, merchantmen and other craft already in harbors were to remain there, 3—Submarines at sea were to surface, fly bl^k flags, report their positions and proceed on the su;rfjace,to desig nated ports, 4——Warships ¿nd auxiliaries were to point their guns directly ahead or directly to the rear, remove'breech blocks to make them useless, and unload torpedo tubes, 5—liiine sweeper and salvage vessels were to remain ready to engage in mine sweeping and salvage. 6—Demolition charges and controlled mine fields were to be neutraliMd. VVHERB ABE NAZI LEADEB87 Nobody yet knows what has become of the Nazi lead en. Moscow reported a body had been fbund in Berlin that might ^be that of Hitler. There was also a report that Goebibeis and iiU family had been found dead in an air raid shelter in Berlin. Goerlng has not been heard from for some time, the last report being that he had flown the country with his wife and $20,000,000. The where abouts of Himmler are also unknown, though there was one report that he was with Doenitz who gave the “cease firing” order to Germans over the Flensburg radio. A later dispatch said Goerlng, his wife and child, were captured by the American Seventh army on a road east of Kitzbiihel on May 8. Field Marshal Kesselring was also captured, Goerlng claimed Hitler had ordered him shot, that he was confined at Berchtesgaden but escaped with the'aid of his airmen, ON THE HOME FRONT. At home the “brown-out” has been lifted, horse and dog racing allowed to resume, the curfew lifted and there is a prospect that civilians may get 8 to 16 per cent more gasoline.

The recently-organized Mocksville Rotary club has a great opportunity, in our opinion, to promote the develop ment of this town and county. Very shortly the members are going to get together to lay out a series of projects which they will foster. We offer the following two tentative suggestions: 1. Promotion of a community meeting house, perhaps In cooperation with the local post of the American Legion which already has a site and some funds towards its con struction. There is a great need for such a building where groups can get together and where boys and girls may meet for recreation and entertainment. There is a particular need for facilities for serving meals. 2. Promotion of the county library, Here is a project close to the heart of all parents who want their children to have better educationail advantages, aside from the fact that grown-ups can u^ It freely and profitably. The li brary is growing rapidly and it is a source of much satis faction that many of the folks patronizing the library are those who cannot get good books in quantity elsewhere There are entirely too many trashy books and magazines now sold hereabouts, as anybody knpws who cares to in vestigate. •Die state, county and town are cooperating in fur nishing money for the library but not near enough is available to meet the demand. Some people have proposed that Davie build a mod em county library and this idea should appeal to somé Rotarían who would do a lasting good for his community. Of course various members of the Rotary club will háve. ideas which they Would like to see developed for the common good. It Is our hope that the ideas will be. drop ped into the hopper and that the local club will emerge with definite programs they will sponsor. Otherwise we fear the club will wither and dle-lnsofar as any good to the community Is concerned. ALLIED UNITY By the time this Is printed we may have some reliable Information concerning the whereabouts of Hitler. Dur ing the closing days of April all sorts of reports coming out qf Europe, and inspired, as we may well,believe, by Germans themselves, made a last desperate effort to break the unity of the Allies. The Germans wanted to surrender to England and Amierica. That was clearly another at tempt to stir up trouble between Russia and her Allies. They were making vain,attempts to throw veils of mystery over Adolf Hitler, and thus start some legends around which the Nazis could start building for another war. We do not wish to see America take the role of merely seconding motions, but we are glad that our leaders are showing willingness to comprom^e in some instances where such compromise will preserve unity. We can afford to risk some compromise, even «as other nations must like wise do, but we cannot afford to be merely proud and stub born. England, we feel sure, will be willing to do likewise. We trust that Russia and France will both show that same spirit, that our unity may remain firm and unshaken. PROPHETIC CONFIDENCE The confidence inspired by President Harry Truman in his first days in office, is something for which the whole nation can be thankful. Men of all parties have expressed confidence, and have given assurance of cooperation. That confidence was inspired by his humility, a virtue which is always the revelation of some great qualities. Profess ing, as he did, his need of Divine guidance and the need of his fellowmen, marks him as a man with sufficient un derstanding', courage, and faith to meet the great respon sibilities which rest upon him. Most Americans are deeply sensible of the loss sus tained in the passing of Mr. Roosevelt. Not even his oppo nents deny the power of his leadership, and the need for it now. People everywhere réspond to a voice which car ries the faith, courage and determination of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. But the sense of that loss is actually .putting all Americans to work for the things for which; lie fought, and for which he gave his life. President |lS:umii|i has manifested,' unexpectedly, greater qualities ,of lead* ' ership than he was believed to possess, and he pledges him- . self to follow along the general lines of his predecessor. The loss of a great leader makes all of the people more deeply sensible of their responsibility and all Americans are now going to work together for winning the peace which lies ahead.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT N. C. SUte Collaie Better nutrition for chUdren n many famUles depends on more home-produced food. The nutrition scientists suggest that parents need constant education oh the advantage of home gar dens and home food preservation. They urgd the growing of more tomatoes and also cabbage, ruta bagas and broccoli, particularly to furnish meals with more vita-, mln C. Home gardeiM t^ould grow green and yellow vegetables to furnish diets with more vitamin A.: The minimum aUowance for vitamin A Is at least one serving a day of a green vegetable. Such vegetables furnish not only A but add some vitamin C and im portant minerals to meals. Orowlng gardens for frissih summer vegetables Is only a part of the home production of food needed for better nutrition of ChUdren. RamlUes need to under stand how Important it Is to put up fruits and vegetbles by the best methods of preservation to Insure adequate, year-round diet. More canning of tomatoes, green beans and peas is advisea. Where possible, freezing preserv ation Is recommended because It saves labor, keeps the fresh flav or of foods, and ho№ more nu tritive value. Home gardens should also Include extra vege tables for winter storage-ruta- sas, cabbage, wliiter squash and carrots.

FARM SAFETY WEEK The second annual National Farm Safety Week will be observed this year from July 22 to July 28, the U. S. De partment of Agriculture announced. Its purpose is to focus attention on the need for carrying on accident and fire prevention activities in rural communities. In 1943, the Department of Agriculture said, farm Occidents killed 17,- 200 persons and Injured 1,500,000. Of those Injured, ap proximately 15,000 were crippled ior life. The monetary loss from these accidents amounted to about one billion dollars. Farm fires last year cost the lives of 3,500 farm people. More than $90,000,000 in property was destroyed. The majority of farm accidents and fires can be prevented, said the Department of Agriculture, by a, simple three- point safety program: (1) Learn to recognize the accident and fire hazards on your farm in youf farm home; (2) Cor rect or remove all hazards that you can; (3) Leam to live and work safely with those hazards that cannot be imme diately corrected or removed.

Joe MarsK AdvertUement How Sober Hoskins Goff His Name Everybody kids Sober Hoskins about his name. Of course, they allow that it’s appropriate. Sober never drinks anything stronger than a glass of beer. And a harder worker In the fields there never was. **ShnckB,’’ Bays Sober's dad. "TTe named Bober 'Sober* Just bccanse he looked that way when ho was born. Ijiko we called his sister ‘Gay,* and his other sister 'Prissy.* And It’s had Its effect on all of 'em,” he adds with spirit. (Prissy Is the old maid in the Hoskins family.) From where 1 sit, there may be something in what Bober’s dad says. Naming children after virtues is a fine old American custom. Look at the names of our pioneers and pilgrims: Faith, Pious, Charity, Hope, Ernest. Maybe we should nse snch names more often. And one I'd like to add Is "Tolerance." II wo all had Tolerance for a middle name, and lived np to It, wo*d have a better, happier world. О I94S, UNITtO 8TATÏS H IW IKS FOUNDATION, North Carolina CoikriIH«* tdeer H.

R, Beaudhaihp, Breeding Cockerels Should Be Selected The selection of breeding cock erels on a definite program ad hered ta by all. hatcheries In North Carolina and toy those flock owners producing hatching eggs Is the next step In a state wide plan for better broilers and greater ¿gg production, says C. F. “Chic” Parrish, in charge of Extension poultry at State Cal- lege. He, explains that while ex cellent progress has been made in recent years, much yet remains to he done. “The chlck-buylng farmer wants chicks that will live, make rapid growth, and feather completely at an early age,” Parrish says. “These quali ties are hereditary and are trans mitted from generation to gene ration.” Any observant person can go into a brood of chicks when they are one day old and identify rapid feathering chicks by the relative length of the primary feathers and the coverts, and the well defined secondary feathers. Chicks with four or more well defined secondary feathers are rapid feathering. When chicks are ten days old, those with well defhied tall feathers are rapid feathering. Those with no tall feathers are slow feathering and should not be used for breeding purposes. “When cockerels are eight weeks of age, they should have full back feathering, full tail feathering, and weigh ot least two pounds. TWs type of cockerel will improve tlie growth rate and featherhig qualities of most flocks. “Other desirable requirements are that medium long legs, broad and full breasts, good sexual de velopment, . and good type or shape for the breed. All cock erels should be re-selected at at 8 to 8 weeks of age. About one-third will be of the desirable type." BUY WAR BONDS — STAMPS! State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT N. C. state College Sliced oranges give more vita min C than orange Juice, and unstrained Juice more than strained juice. Strahied orange juice contains only from a half to three-fourths ■ the amount of vitamin C contained in the seg ments, so is the most extrava- gent way to u.se oranges. Home economists say jam Is the easiest of strawberry spreads to make, and comparatively eco nomical, since It can be made from the sound but riper, less perfectly shaped, and less uni formly sized berries. One secret in making good strawberry jam is to use & wide shallow kettle, and to cook in small batches. Speedy jam-mak ing helps hold the natural bright color and flavor of the berries, and cuts down on loss of their vitamin C. To Be Tried Her# Ш Ш T n is r Ш М Т A M NEEDED—Men’ for inside work.

This hard-hitting ship, while under threat of air attack, moved up withing 3,000 yards of the ahore, cruising slowly back and forth and pulverizing the beadi target at point blank range. The crew could clearly see the ex plosions from the ship’s i^ells as iher guns smashed pillboxes, gun emplacements, warehouses and trench fortifications. The ship’s anti-aricraft gun ners fought off deadly air as- •aults during the bombardment period, and on one occasion only iikUltul maneuvering of the vewel by her c<»nmanding officer saved her from a torpedo wihich had been dropped. At one time a Jap “Zeke' bomber, puraued by two U. S.

Using almost every thing... from toothpicks to crossties, from pins to steel rails...there are few articles produced in the South that the Southern doesn’t buy. Andthereare few cities, or towns, or counties in the South that do not feel the helpful effect of railway purchases. They ring local cash reg isters, stimulate local trade, and provide jobs for thousands of workers in other industries . . . year after year. ' Thus, through its purchases, through the taxes it pays, through the 50,000 railroadijobs it provides and the vital transportation service it renders, the Southern Railway System really “Serves the South”,„and so helps it to grovv and prosper.

We suggest that they rediscover the delicacy of turtle. The turtle abounds rather plentifully in creeks here abouts and it is first class eating. Folks don’t seem to appreciate just how good it is. The reason is that it takes time to dress and prepare. What brought the subject of turtle to our mind was the fact that a colored friend of ours, once hearing us say that we loved turtle soup, brought us an 8-pound turtle the other day. , Parboiled and fried, turtle meat is better than veni son or bear, ^according to the writer’s notion. And the Boup—well, that’s something different when it is flavored to taste. THE JOB AHEAD ' If we thought the war was a tough job, what about what lies ahead? There may not be as much bloodshed, but there will be many headaches and heartaches. Europe ' is almost destroyed.

They fed their own people with their loot, and for • a long time protected their country from destruction. Then, destruction began to rain down over Germany. Now, she lies a mass of ruins, and becomes our greatest problem. We must be careful that Germany does not again play us for a sucker. Five million Germans have surrendered to us—many of them rushing to do so In order to escape the Russians. They know what they have done to Russia, and being afraid that Russia may now do the same to them, they flee to the Americans for protection. They know that we will treat them as prisoners of war and feed them; they have heard how we have coddled the Germans in our prison camps—even after wc learned the horrors our men .suffered in German camps. Now, they come to us whim pering, but still arrogant, demanding that we protect the scoundrels who destroyed the countries which they occu pied. RUSSIA’S MOLOTOV The Russian Commissar, - Mr. -Molotovj is- one-of the outstanding figures in the San Francisco Conference. It Is Mr. Molotov whom people are trying to see, and it is Mr. Molotov’s utterances which command headlines. He has proven to be a leader of ability. Mr. Molotov stands as something of a symbol of Rus sia. Russia has been one of the great surprises of the war. It must be confessed that we in America really know very little about what the Russian system of government is, but there is one thing very evident—it has done something to the Russians, and they like it. Stalin Is supposed to be a dictator, and there ls.no doubt that his orders are gen erally obeyed; but there is a great contrast in his govern ment and that of Nazi and Fascist countries. In Germany and in Italy, Hitler and Mussolini really dictated to the people—dictated their own minds and wills. They suc ceeded in so organizing government that their groups put down all semblances of liberty, and those who tried to resist were thrown Into concentration camps. From our soldiers and war correspondents have come the clear im pression that in Germany and Italy Nazis and Fascists fought because they were compelled to fight. From all of our contacts with Russia there has come the impression that the average Russian fights because he wants to; be cause he has something to fight for. It is, now clear that the present Russian regime has done something for the average Russian that he appreciates, and that has trans formed his social and economic condition. What has ap peared in operation does not resemble what he had known, or thought we knew, of Communism. As someone said recently, “Russia moves to the right so fast that she makes America appear to moving to the left.” Differences between America and Russia are inevit able, but the policy for both at the nioment is to study each other in confidence and with unity. We have done well together'in war, surely we.can do well |n peace. Rus sia and America emerge as the two great powers; it is absolutely necessary that the two nations learn to live together In peace. t O M I - E U i i r J. A.

W. Driscoll today advised householders who cook or heat water with oil, that they may now obtain fuel rations for use In their cooking stoves and hot water heaters, even though they have a coal or wood burning stove or furnace available. The restrictions which formerly precluded fuel oU rationing for domestic cooking and for heating water where coal or wood burning stoves or furnaces were avail able, have been lifted for the period from May 1 to Sep tember 30, he explained. “This does not mean that the fuel oil supply situa tion has eased,” Mr. Driscoll said, "but similar action was taken the past two summers, and the supply of fuel for civilians during the present heating season Is about the same, or slightly less than It was then. . NEW PRICE REGULATIONS ON AUTO REPAIR ANNOUNCED Specific limits have been set on the hours of labor that automobile repair establishments may charge for In computing prices for 56 common passenger car repair jobs, the Office of Price Administration announced. This action, effective Jime 14, 1945, Is taken to check a prac tice in some repair shops of charging customers for more hours of later than were actually required 'to do the par ticular repair job. The repair jobs cpvered range all the way from a minor brake adjustment to the complicated job of installing the crank shaft and bearings. All shops are required to supply sales slips or receipts to customers for any of the 56 listed operations, regardless of whether or not requested by the customer. The slip or receipt must describe briefly the service, cite Its number in the new reg ulation, the shop’s hourly rate, the number of hours charged for, the prices charged for parts and materials, and the total charge. Automobile repair services not among the 56 listed continue to be priced as formerly im- der the services regulation. MORE WAR PRISONERS TO BE USED IN AGRICULTURE The War Food Administration announced that It has been assured by the War Department that Increased num bers of prisoners of war wlllЪe available this year for agri cultural work. 'The WFA Office of Labor repoiiied that a peak total of 85,000 war prisoners will be used in contract work In the period through July as agricultural laborers. Last year approximately 65,000 prisoners of'war were available. The men will be assigned through the nine service command areas of the army. The type of farm work they engage In will be determined by the Dlrectprs of State Extension Services. WFA will request an even larger number of POWs for farm work In the peak of the fall harvcsthig season. LARGE INCREASE OF ALARM CLOCKS NOT LIKELY SOON Limitation Order L-275, issued April 14, 1944, to con trol production and distribution of spring-driven and elec tric clocks, has been revoked to permit manufacturers to Increase production whenever the large military contracts they now hold are reduced and materials and skilled labor-becoma. available, _WPB_ announced— It- said,- how ever, that It foresaw no sharp Increase In the number of alarm clocks available to civilians In the Immediate fu ture. Production currently is at about one-third of the pre-war rate, estimated at 12,500,000 alarm clocks .per year. FEEDSTUFFS SACKING CHARGES Farmers aijid others who use products feedstuffs will benefit by the new mark-ups effective May 21, defining maximum charges that may be made for sacking feed stuffs such as meat scraps and tankage, OPA District Di rector L. W. Driscoll In Charlotte said today. The markups where the seller furnishes the' sacks Is $3.25 per ton over the maximum bulk price, or the addi tion of a reasonable market value for the sacks, not more than their maximum price at the time of sale, he ex plained. A charge of fifty-cents per ton to cover the expense of packing Is permitted the seller If t^ie buyer furnishes the sacks, he added.

Harvey Shore Surrenders To y Federal Officers Wanted on a charge of selUiig bogus gaaoUme and sugar cou pons, Harvey Shore, of Cyde, surrendered to federal officials last Saturday and was ibrled In federal count at Wllkesboro Mon day. His wife drew a two-year pris on sentence and was fined $5,000 m a similar charge in federal court here early this month. Shore, indicted on a bench warrant issued by Judge John son J. Hayes, appeared before United States Commissioner M. W. Mackle >at YadklnvUle Sat urday morning in custody of federal officers. A $5,000 bond for his appearance in federal court was signed by Joe Brooks, a private bondsman. Testimony in the itrial of Mrs. Shore said counterfeit coupons were sold (to George Ernest White, bo Dwight Holder, a sailor who spent his leave working against black market activities, and to OPA Investigator E.

Use a solution of sodiumt chlorate, made at the rate of one pound of the material to the gallon of water, and spray It on the plants, says Prof. B. W. Wells of the Botany Department at State College. He also reports that a new and very effective chemical called ammonium suf- lamate has been developed re cently but it Is not available at this time. As to the sodium chlo rate, Prof. Wells warns that this George itestlfied he made two purchases, 'the second time giv ing a marked $20 bill in pay ment for 27 coupons. Shortly afterward he and federal offi cers searched the house 'and found coupons-jmostly counter feit—for 13,850 pounds of sugar and 492 gallons of .gasoline. Federal authorities described Shore as a notorious bootlegger who recently spent a term in the federal penitentiary at Atlanta. chemical la very active and must be kept «way from fire at all ttoiea. It should never be stored near aulphur. It muat be kept off the clothing. Q. Should breeding cokerels be dubbed? A. This Is especially necessa;iy for the breeds that develop large combs and wattles, says C. F. Parrish, in charge of Extension poultry at State College. Dubb ing reduces fighting and picking following the tearing of combés ahd wattles. It permits the cock erel to eat out of hoppers more easily. Dubbed cockerels give better fertility, which makes for higher hatchabillty of eggs, be cause of the better physical con dition of the bird. In dubbing, hold the head of the cockerel firmly in an erect posl'tlon. With a smal pair of strong scissors, cut the wattles close to the neck as they hang. Cut the comb by starting at the rear and cutting toward the front, at a point where the conib widens out on top of the head. Dub cockerels at about 8 to 10 weeks of ^ge and on a warm day to reduce bleeding.Breth«rt' R«iinlon Q. Can I ralae queen bees and nuclei for aale? A. Queen rearing and breeding is a very apeclallzed job, aays Prof. Ross O. Stevens of tlie Zoo logy Department at State College. The problem la to get the young queens properly mated When they leave the colony at about slz days pf age. Even though you produce a large ntunber of good drones In your colonies, the chances of mating with one of your bees Is not very great. Probably there are all kinds of bees In your territory. .

Nitrogen Produces Large Corn Yields New , methods for Increasing corn yields in North Carolina are being tested by a large num ber. ol growers this year and the use of large amounts of nitro gen per acre, when the corn la about knee high. Is one ot the most important points In the plan. State college agronomists of both the agricultural experiment station and extension service call special attention to the five steps In increasing corn yields. These five steps are the use of a proven local variety or an adapted hybrid; adapting the fertilizer to suit the soil condi tions; providing enough plants to produce desired yields; avoid ing late, deep cultivation, where possible; and varying the top- dreswr with soil fertility and expected yield increases. For yields up to SO busheb per acre, e,000 plants per acre are needed: for 60 to 75 bushels, 7,- 200 plants; and for 75 to 100 bushels, about 0,400 plants. Tests have shown that where land produces from 15 to 35 bushels per acre with little or no nitrogen topdresslng, the fol lowing increases per acre may be obtained, if all practices as to plants and cultivation are fol lowed: 20 pounds ol nitrogen per acre, 10 to 12 bushels; 30 pounds of N, 15 to 18; 40 pounds of N, 15 to 25; 60 pounds of N, 25 to 35, 80 pounds of N, 30 to 45; and 100 pounds ol N, 30 to 50 bushels ol corn. Fertilization recommended at planting for com in rotation with heavily fertilized crops is 200 to 300 pounds of 6-8-6 or 5- 7-5 and in rotation with leg umes for seed a,nd small grains, 300 to 500 pounds per acre. In rotation with peanuts and leg umes, the recommendation Is 300 to 500 pounds of 4-8-8 per acre. Grain wihichi la to be combined should be thoroughly dry, heads drooped land ithe straw raither dark In color. BETHEL T. L, Martin and Mr. Owens of Sumiter, S.

Fight Chinch Bugs With Dinitro Dust Dinitro dust has been proven very toxic to chinch bugs and kills them on contact. When the bugs begin to migrate Irom the small grain to corn llelds, a Ihie of dust about one inch wide is put between the grain and the corn to kill the bugs before they can reach and damage the com. The soil wihere the dust is ap plied muat be smooth and firm, and free of any. trash. The dust ia applied with special appllca- tora or a coffee can. About 15 pounds of duat is required to make 100 yards of barrier. If light rains occur, the barrier line may be freshened by brushing lighitly with a small broom or bunch of straw. When a heavy rain destroys the barrier, it must be re-established. AH traah must be kept off the dust line, or the bugs may go over the line on the trash and not be killed. The migration period lasts about one to two weeks, accord ing to J. Myron Maxwell, exten sion entomologist at State col lege. The dust barrier must be kept in good condition during this entire period and it la gen erally necessary to examine the barrier each day to see that no br^ks occur. ' Maxwell says that the dust stains the hands a bright yel low but it apparently is not harmful. The stain will wash out of cotton clothes but not out of woolen materials. The dust is not particularly harmful to live stock but it should not be han dled carelessly. Growers needing dust to fight the’ chhich bug should get In touch with the county agent.

Coal Stokers Used For Tobacco Bams Coal stokers seem to olfer many advantages compared to other methods o f' heating to bacco barns, especially under labor shortage conditions and a searclty of wood, says a new bul letin of the agricultural experi ment station at State college. The publication points out that troubles with stokers are due to the installation of over size stokers. Improper design ol 'the furnace for stoker use, in sufficient flues, and Improper draft regulation. A 30-pound- per-hour stoker is’generally ade quate lor an ordinary lour-room barn and a 40 pound size lor a five-room barn. For economy in fuel consump tion, several definite things muat be taken into consideration. Line the inside of the barn with alum inum foil. Fill the spaces be tween bhe studs with “rock wool.” Give the correct elevation to the heating system. Regulate the draft with a damper In the stack. Provide plenty of flue pipe In the barn. Use a proper size small stoker with a time clock con trol. Give no more ventilation than is required for proper dry ing. Thé time clock gives excellent control of fire during the pe riod of yellowing. It provides an automatic rise of temperature aa the leal drlea, thua requiring leaa attention. There ia an even drying rate both night and day. It la the leaat expensive and most dependable of all .control systems.

In addition to buying excra Bonds themselves, they’re willing to give their time to a job that’s as important as anything outside the battle lines. It’s important—and it’s big.
