This event has skipped only two years during its existence, last year and in 1935 when polio caused cancellations. This year the picnic is operathig under the handicaps of wartime shortages, particularly of food commodities. Somehow, though, the women of Davie county are go­ ing to see that everybody has enough to eat. And each is dipping Into the family larder of scarce items to provide that food. It is a tribute to their Ingenuity and deter­ mination to see that the picnic is a success—^and a suc­ cessful picnic means help for deserving children who must be fed, clothed, educated during war or peaoe. So this year we suggest that the. menfolks who give of their time, money and energy each year to make the pkmlc a success make their best gentlemanly bow to the ladles. Meeting In Berlin The meeting of the Big Three In Berlin, with all of their aides and advisors, t>rovides a tremendous contrast to the situation of the Allied world a few years ago when all of Germany was goose stepping, strutting, and trampling ruthlessly over the helpless small nations of Europe. They were talking then of enslaving the world; now, they find themselves under the power of those whom they would have enslaved and destroyed. There is quite a difference in the Allied treatment of the Germans, and the treat­ ment meted out to the Allies by the Germans. Of course, we do not want to apply the law of “Eye for an eye, or tooth for tooth,” our policy is, and Should be, one of restoration. But, It Is up to the Germans to make that restoration possible. To be kind towards repentence ia Christian and wise; to be kind towards arrogance and pride is meek'surrender to the forces which we fought to 4leetroy. If the German people do not feel the consequence ®f their criminal folly, they will remain the same kind of (Germans, who were capable of the ruthless destruction Sihlch they visited upon Europe, and capable of planning for another world war. This time we have entered Berlin, but unless we occupy it with firmness and justice our sol­ diers have fought and died in vain. A returned soldier says: “When they (the Germans) found that the Americans wei« not going to treat them with cruelty, they began to век for their rights and privileges,” They are not asking for rights and privileges as a repentent people, but demand­ ing, as the same old arrogant Germans, their rights as the super race. Kindness, they construe, as weakness on the part of the inferior races. We must learn how to combine kindness with Justice. Since the ban on fraternization with Germans has been lifted, we read of American soldiers walking along hand in hand with German girls. That sort of fraternization is not victory, but surrender to a skirt which lately was red with the blood of Its victim. NORTH FORK ■Mr. and Mra.

Answer; There are several methods employed in breaking the rest period: cold storage for several weeks; greening by spreading the , potatoes in in­ direct light; and chemical treat­ ment. Since fall crop potatoes should be planted the latter part of July, the quickest m ethod- chemical treatment—should be used, says H. R. Nlswonger, hor­ ticultural specialist of the State college extension service. Question: What Is meant by "area coverage” In connection with REA power line construc­ tion? Answer: The term means the making available of electric service by REA cooperatives to ail consumers in a given area without leaving unserved sec­ tions and farms stranded In re­ mote areas, explains Prof. David S.Weaver, agricultural engineer of the State college extension service. “lihls type of service sharply contrasts with former methods which authorized the construction of i»wer lines only along highways and Into thickly- settled farm sections promising immediate collections of reve­ nues. Question: Should raspberries and dewberries be sprayed in summer? Answer: By all means spray the new canes ot both raspber­ ries and deu-berrles to control diseases. Use commercially-pre­ pared Boredaux mixture accord- hig to the directions of the man ufacturer as recommended for spraying other fruits.

Miss Parker Rides Again Dorothy Parker, attending a Hollywood party (doesn’t that have a familiar ring?), met a young actress atid compliment­ ed her thusly: "I think you’re the most beautiful woman in Hollywood.” "I know you don’t really think that,” demured the Y.A., "you’re Just saying It.” "Well, ■that makes us even,” snapped Miss Parker.

Surely there’s no need to go out. You can send Mary with It.” John turned upon her more In sorrow than In anger.

REFRIGERATORS Price regulations governing sales and rentals of used mechanical household refrigerators have been amended, effective August 6, OPA said. The following changes are made: 1. Control of refrigerator rentals by landlords to ten­ ants Is clarified. 2. Refrigerators sold “as is” must have all parts necessary for operation. 3. A consumer selling a used mechanical refrigerator must give a written agree­ ment to pay for all parts and repairs needed to fulfill the guaranty. All models produced in 1941 and 1942, and all lift top refrigerators, are given dollar-and-cent prices. The $S warranty allowance added by the seller on used refriger­ ators with a one-year guarantee is Increased to $10 on 1939 and 1940 models. SHOES—APPAREL More leather shoes for civilians will be produced dur­ ing the last three months of this year than In any previ­ ous quarter of 1945, because of scheduled military cut­ backs, WPB and OPA announced. A production rise of civilian shoes containing leather In the uppers or soles to approximately 26,000,000 pah’s per month during the fourth quarter of 1945 Is expected. Prohibition of the use of leather soles In production of footwear with moccasin-type or mudgtiard vamps, sad­ dle-type footwear, and certain other types of shoes was' removed by WPB. Fifteen million yards of staple cotton fabrics, com-' monly used for home sewing, have been made available for distribution to civilians in stores serving sinall towns and rural areas, WPB announced. These fabrics Include gingham, seersucker, lawn, bleached and/or unbleached Class “C” sheeting, print cloths (percale, plisse (crinkled crape), and outing flannel. HOUSEHOLD GOODS Rationing of gas cooking and gas heating stoves to consumers will end July 31, OPA and WPB said in a joint announcement. Combination ranges, except oil-gas com- bhiations, also will be sold certificate-free after that date. Oil cooking, oil heating, combination oil-gas stoves and oil conversion burners for stoves will remain rationed . . . An order requiring manufacturers to usp additional quanti­ ties of water-softening “builder” materials In their prod­ ucts, will increase by. ten per cent the United States pro­ duction of household “heavy duty” laundiy-type soaps, the Department of Agriculture said. niAILER GAS Special gasoline rations for moving house trailers used by workers who move from job to Job will be Issued here­ after, only if the workers are employed at essential estab­ lishments or construction projects, OPA says.. Previously, gasoline rations could be issued for moving a house trailer to be used as housing for a person in connection with his, occupation, without regard to kind of work performed. This permitted persons doing non-essential work to ob­ tain more gasoline for travel than the maximum “B” ra­ tions provide for occupational driving Occupational ra­ tions were not intended for transporting migratory work­ ers not occupied on essential jobs OPA explains. GAS STOVE RATIONING ENDS Rationing of gas cooking and gas heating stoves will end July 31 It was announced yesterday by OPA District Director L. W. Driscoll, who said that combination ranges, except oil, gas combinations, also will be sold certificate- free after that date. Remaining on the ration lists will be oil cooking, com­ bination oil-gas stoves and oil conversion burners for stoves, he added. A substantial Increase in gas stove production sched­ uled for the third quarter was given as the reason for. the OPA action.

It waa the first night that I spent In a foxhole wtiere I couldn’t stick my head out. We kept taking towns until we got to the Roer River, that was about the 1st of December. From then until February 23, we had out posts along the river. That is where I spent Christmas and New Years. “Bill said the ack-ack boys could really ^ ove the stuff up In the air. Well, I agree with him on that, but from what I’ve seen, it doesn’t do any good. I saw them shoot at a plane one night for 15 minutes, and they haven’t hit It yet. It dropped a bomb on the house where our second squad was staying. I was lucky,-because I was on an outpost by the river. Bill should see the fireworks when the In­ fantry starts working. Boy! He wouldn’t be able to just stand there, tho’, he would hit the ground, or else! February 23 we crossed the Roer. I was in the first alligator, in the first assault, but it hit a mine, and was knocked out. Later I was overcome by smoke, which came from a smoke screen our engi­ neers put out. We took several towns on the other side, then we were releived, while the others raced for the Rhine. We were staying in Munchin-Gladbock, Where we were guarding 0th Anny Headquarters. That was a racket. We crossed the Rhine March 31, near Wessel. From there we went from town to town taking care of displaced persons. Some of the towns we were in, is Weme, Detmold and a town near Munster. On April 23, we started for the Elbe River. We were the. extreme left flank of the eth Army. We walked a- bout 30 miles in two days to reach the Elbe, and not a Shot was fired. I got the gun I sent Dad near there. We reached the Elbe about 80 miles northwest of Ber­ lin. We stayed there about a week, then we atarted moving to thethe rear. I hated to leave there because it was such a beau­ tiful place. And we had all we wanted to eat, chicken, turkeys and eggs. We.arrived in this town about May 3rd. It really is a beautiful place, even tho’ It is almost torn up. We puU guard duty around here. I don't mind it, because I had rather do this Davis and Daisy Belle Burke. ....Poplar Springs—Thomas Hol­ man. St. Johns—Lucile H. Douthit.

H. Thompson FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question; How can I control bottom-end rot of tomatoes? Answer; Blosaom-end rot can be materlaUy reduced, but not entirely prevented, by avoiding the use of heavy appUcatlona of nitrogen, especially manure and by supplying additional super­ phosphate. Also the application of water to the roots of bhe plants wUl frequently check the disease. Question: What Is an effective control measure for boll weevil? Answer: Boll weevUs may be controUed by dusting the cot­ ton with five to seven pounds of calcium arsenate per acre. Ap- pUcatlons of the dust should be made at Intervals of five to seven days. If aphids become numerous, add 40 per cent nico­ tine sulphate to the calcium arsenate to make a two t>er cent nicotine dust. This would be one pound of 40 perc ent nicotine sulphate to 20 pounds of cal­ cium arsenate. Question; Is peniciUin effective In treating all types of live­ stock diseases? Answer; Like sulfa drugs, penlcUlln is effective against some types of disease-producing germs, but wholly useless against others, says Dr. C. D. Orlnnells, veterinarian of the State college agricultural experiment station. Dr. Orlnnells pointed out that penclUln Is of no value against virus diseases such ^ hog chol­ era and sleeping sickness and that many of Its other uses are in the experimental stage. He suggested that a veterinarian be consulted before the application of the drug. -Currituck county farmers are busy picking, packing, and d ip ­ ping tomatoes to New York city an do^er northern markets.

The interior appoint­ ments of the plane are identi­ cal with those of the personal plane used by the late President Roosevelt. The plane Is outfitted like the flying headquarters recently de­ livered to Oen. Douglas Mac- Arthur, with sleeping quarters, an electrically - equipped galley, conference room and desk.

Stalin’s Rank Raised To Generalissimo Moscow—Premier Joseph Stal­ in bears the title of Generalissi­ mo, third Russian In history to hold that rank. The others were Count Suv­ orov, hero of the 18th century battles with the Poles and French and Prince Menshikov, soldier and statesman of <the 17th and 18th centuries. The Supreme Soviet elevated Marshal Stalin to Generalissimo and the press today carried huge front-page pictures of Stalin, all posed In his Marshal's uniform. The question was raised as to what he would wear at the im­ pending Big Three meeting.

Nearly $88,000 has been donated to the Oxford Orphan« age during the past 65 years of the annual Masonic picnic. It began as a suggestion while on a picnic at the “Shoals” where Cooleemee Is now located. John H. Stew- art suggested that the money left over from buying re­ freshments be given to the orphanage. A generous heart and purse has always characterized the picnics. Records in the Mocks­ ville lodge from year to year show how the idea of support for the orphan boys and girls was nurtured. As far back as 1886 formal Invltaitlons were Issued to the picnic, asking for attendance with a dinner basket to be do­ nated to the cause. OLDEN DAYS Back in the early days the picnic had aU of the flouridi of the times. For a consider­ able time an excunion was run from Winston, the first mention of the excursion in the minutes of the lodge behig In 1802. It was later found, however, t!iat the picnic train became a com­ petitor in the sale of drinks and other commodities and it was .abandoned. While the picnic dinner has always been one of the main attractions, there have been a number of other features. In 1895 watermelon sales were men­ tioned In the reports of the lodge. In 1906 a morning pic­ ture show grossed $44,23 for the picnic and a morning basebaU game brought In $57. Hat col­ lections were also the vogue In some years. In 1905 for instance there was $36.50 taken when the hat was passed. BUY GROUNDS In the early years the Masons were given the use of the pic- nigc grounds by Herbert Clem­ ent. In ■ 1897, however, it was decided to buy the grounds of five acres from Mr. Clement, WhUe no member ot the local Masonic lodge would brag about it, during ail of the years of the picnic no one has made a dime out of it. Pood services and unbounded energy have been llberaUy contributed so that every cent possible might The process of distribution of tobacco twine is responsible for ample supplies In some North Carolina counties and shortages In others, according to Tom Scott, chairman of th e' State AAA committee at State col­ lege.

WE FEEL WE ARE AMONG FRIENDS SHEEK BOWDEN Concession Committee temporary barrier. ■While Mr. Bowles predicted rapid removal of price ceilings in general during the coming year, he pointed out that there will be some fields, where ma­ terials are scarce and the pent- up public demand enormous, in which controls should be main­ tained as protection against in­ flationary prices. No Comfort for Builders He mentioned building mate­ rials particularly. Nearly every­ one seems to be plannhig to “build a house when the war Is over.” Moreover, he pointed out, people have the money to do It. WHh demand and supplies so badly out of balance. It would be extremely dangerous to let nature take its course in this particular field, in his opinion. The OPA head pointed out that these major decisions will be up to Congress. He warned that these decisions would be difficult to make because the pressure on Congress to lift the lid completely would be tre­ mendous. “The OPA is determined not to be a bottlbneck In this pro- J. F. JOHNSTON Basket Committee gram,” said Mr. Bowles. It is the plan of OPA to re­ move price controls In as many fields as possible and as fast as practicable, the Committee was told. In many cases, when it ap­ pears that the time is ripe lor such action, the OPA, aftor con­ sultation with industry, will sus­ pend controls for a 90-day trial period. It prices stabilize themselves without 'the controls, the,suspen' /slon will be made permanent. Mr. Bowles predicted that price controls can probably be remov­ ed in the textile field In the not too distant future. The textile situation is bad now, he admitted, with produc­ tion way behind demand, but he believes a balance will be struck sooner than many people think, making it possible for OPA -to step out of that field. He believes that price controls on food can be lifted by next year providing 1946 crops come up to expectations. He said that the OPA has al­ ready removed rent controls in several fields, and is studying the possibility of stepping out DR. W. R. WILKINS Advertising and Publicity Committee L. M.

He explained the necessity of maintaining a flexible control long enough so that business will have the assurance of a fairly stable price level on which to base their calculations. After the last war, when con­ trols were lifted within six months businessmen didn’t know what would happen and began to stock up with huge in­ ventories as a guard against price rises. Small businesses suf­ fered heavily later on as a re­ sult of this, Mr. Bowles pointed out ,because they stocked up later and less extenslyely at higher prices. He referred to the 4,000 bank- rupteles which followed when the country plummeted into a deflation period. A total of 137 farmers sold 14,121 pounds of wool with an advance of $5,309.23 on the wool in the cooperative pool at Will- lamston.

SILVERDIS Refreshment Committee Tobacco Bam Fires Cause Heavy Losses , A considerable loss of money is sustained annually by North Carolina tobacco farmers when bartis filled with tobacco burn, but a few precautions against fires would prevent a tremen­ dous amount of worry and money, says David S. Weaver, extension agricultural engineer of State college. A survey made of some to­ bacco bam fires in 1944 reveals that the replacement cost would be about $400 each with an average loss of $300 worth of tobacco, or a total loss of $700 for each fire, Professor Weaver points out. The three Important causes of fires in tobacco bams are: 1. Tobacco leaves falling on the flues and furnace. 2. De­ fective flues and-furnaces. 3. Inadequate and unsafe founda­ tions. Professor Weaver suggests the following methods of fire pre­ vention: Careful selection of sticks of proper length and suf­ ficient strength, together with GUY W. MoCLELLAN Basket Committee G. G. DANIEL Refreshment Committee P.O. RANKIN Bàaket CommittM H. C. SPRINKLB Proiram Committee P. G. BROWN Dinner and Tables Committee the correct looping and hang­ ing of the tobacco on the sticks, th e placing of poultry wire net­ ting directly over the furnace and flues might be of consid­ erable value in reducing fires. The furnace and flues, says Professor Weaver, should be carefully checked for any defects before the first firing of the year and between each cure. Furnaces should be at least two feet longer than the length of the wood used, so that the fire is well up from the mouth of the furnace. Furnaces and flues should be well protected by masonry, such as brick work, from parts of the^ wooden structure. At least twelve Inches should be the dis­ tance between any part of the furnace and a wooden piece. The stacks should ’ always ex­ tend higher than the roof of the barn.

After Sanders built a combi­ nation tobacco bam and sweet potato curing liouse In accord­ ance with a blueprint prepared by State college extension spe­ cialists, he and Heclcstall laid plans for. the growing of tobacco and sweet potato crops. The State college extension service and the state depart­ ment of agriculture were ac­ cepting orders for certified Louisiana Porto Rico seed po­ tatoes in the winter of 1943, and Heckstall placed an order for 30 bushels.

A sweet potato harvesting demonstration was held on this farm in 1944 when agricultural experts from State college and the state department of agri­ culture demonstrated Improved practices In digging, grading and curing sweet potatoes. After experimenting with varying lengths of spacing in the drill, Saunders found that he pro­ duced more Number 1 potatoes and fewer Jumbos from the ten- inch spacing. He used his barn for curing the crop. In March of this year the stored crop of potatoes was In­ spected by the Crop Improve­ ment association, and the pota-; toes were, graded for U. S.

Saunders reported that he re­ ceived $2,700 for his four acres of tobacco and $1,200 for three acres of sweet potatoes. Pros­ pects for this year’s crop are fine.

HENDRIX Gate Committee “I never saw such fire brought together so quickly,” said Cap­ tain Stockman ,who fought also on Guadalcanal and Saipan. "Our men would go up a hill and start over the top. One bar­ rage from the enemy, zeroed in on the crest, and it would be all over'us.” t Reason for the desperate dow- nesa of Uie Okinawa campaign, according to the front-line, first­ hand testimony of these men, included these obstacles: The Japanese were holed up in caves and ancient tombs which were sometimes three and four stories deep, with ventilating systems, electric lights and rails for push-cars. Some hill caves hid 3,000 Japanese. "Some hills seemed actually hollow,” one sergeant exclaimed. Japanese s o 1 dl e r a would emerge from these caves after the tremendous Amerloan shell­ ing stopped and be ready to re­ pel with mortars, machine guns and tihousands of hand grenades, the attacking Marines or O. I.’s who would come driving up one of Okinawa’s never-ending se­ ries of hills. The "reverse slope” defenses of JAMES E. KELLY Refreshment Committee DR. M. H. HOYLE Advertising and Publicity Committed the Japanese took a heavy toll. The Japanese maintained their caves and battle-trenches on the reverse slope of hills, out of reach of off-shore naval gunfire and on-shore American artillery. When American troops reached a hilltop, the Japanese would rush to topmost trenches and pour withering fire against the attackers. When the rains cahie, the red J. H. COOK Refreshment Committe« C.

Shot at Like Stranded Ducks On Okinawa American troops encountered their first 30-min­ ute Japanese artillery barrage in the Pacific Area. Because they were advanchig steadily fi^m lower to higher hills, they .were exposed often to artillery fire from .above, from which there was almost no cover. When mud was knee deep, It sometimes re- qulred six to eight stretdier- bearers to carry one wounded man to safety. Of course, American artillery of all kinds, naval guns, navy and marine fliers and tx>mbers and flame throwing tanks pour­ ed a devastating barrage againet th r Japatteae- and-thcir posttiono throughout the campaign, and the results can be seen in the lopsided casualty figures and high percentage of Japanese kUled. But whether strategy was somewhere at fault, or whether the Japanese were super-tough because this campaign was close to home, It was no picnic. Be­ cause the Army and Navy be­ lieve the American public should get a clear picture of what our troops are up against, these 44 officers and enlisted men will tour the United States for the next 00 days, telling , their stark story.

This bomb killed 200,000 Japs, obliterated 4.1 square miles of the built-up area of 6.0 miles. Tokyo admitted that practically nothing escaped death in its path. This Davie man was Maj. Thomas Wilson Ferebee, who was bom at Cana on November 9, 1918. He is the son oi William Flave Ferebee, 54, and Zella Ward Ferebee, 63, the latter being a native of Farmington. They operate their 112-acre farm on Mocksville, Route 1, located five miles from here on the Statesville highway. The farm was for­ merly owned by Tom I^arl Dwlggins of Mocksville. Tom is the third of 11 children. Major Ferebee was the bombadler on the B-29. Only , he and two other members of the crew knew what they carried. Col. Paul W. Tibbets, Jr., of Miami, Fla., who pilot­ ed the plane and Navy Capt. Wiliam S. Parsons of Santa Fe, N. M. Colonel Tibbets had trained specially for the mission and during the training Major Ferebee has been likewise engaged, although his, family had no inkling of the worK he was doing recently. All they knew was that-he was on special missions, particularly in this country when sta­ tioned at Wendover Field, Utah, and before going to thé Pacific some two months ago. The B-29 took off from a base in the Marianas., INTERESTED IN FLYING Tom has been interested in ilying since he was a child, according to his parents. His mother related that once when he was still under ten and she thought him in bed with the measles, he had gotten out to watch an airplane overhead. He took his first ride in a commercial plane when he was in his teens, she letting him have the money but not knowing irntil later what he did with It. Major Ferebee is a graduate of Mocksville High school, after which he attended Lees-McRae college at Banner Elk.- Whlle there he was the only three-letter man in athletics, captain of the football team and a member of the varsity^ teams of baseball and track. In the spring of 1940 as he was completing his i^ho- more year at Lees-McRae, Tom thought he saw war com­ ing to tliis country and he enlisted in the army air corps to get a head start.

The cost of per fecting this great weapon, which the Germans worked feverishly to master, cost a cool $2,000,000, ООО. But in the Indirect words of Churchill and President Tru­ man, ‘|the battle of the labora­ tories was won by the Anglo- Amei^ican scientists, and this victory may well spell the differ­ ence between victory and defeat of our forces in Europe and in fact ,throughout the entire world. The. power of the bomb is so great that one plane can carry enough explosive to do the dame damage that 2,000 planes could do, carrying the very powerful TNT. It is said that the new discov­ ery may also be turned to peace­ ful uses, too, such as the turning of wheels of Industry, running trains and propelling airplanes. But the greatest possibility of the new weapon right now Is the opportunity it offers of flatten­ ing Tokyo and all the other Japanese towns and cities If they don’t choose tihe other al­ ternative-unconditional surren­ der. We сапЧ help but say: “Hats off to our great American and British scientists for their noble work in this endeavor.

MeCLEIXAN Robert Ellis near Cornatzer recently built a meadow strip to empty terrace water on at a later date after he gets vegeta­ tion established. He has built around 3,000 feet of terraces too. This Is hiS' first terracing work and he likes It fine. He Is mak­ ing preparations to seed some more alfalfa this fall. He has seeded four acres of serlcea les­ pedeza this spring, and is hop­ ing to Improve part of his pas­ ture this fall. Hubert Boger near Farming­ ton is making ‘preparations to sow seven acres of Alfalfa this fall. He is right in his belief that he will be able to Improve hli.pther land by toeing able to turn under more lespede» smce he won't n e^ sis much of It for hay. J. Frank Hendrix near Dulln has built during July about 12,- 000 feet of terraces, diverted water from his bottom land, and made him a nice road into his farm. Mr. Hendrix Is working toward a herd of cattle. He al­ ready has some alfalfa and hopes to put: in considembly more. He also has «m e of tlM best grazing land seen in DavM county. It Is a pleasure to see. the farmers of Davle county show* ing more interest in the Middle Yadkin Soil Conservation dis­ trict work in trying to save rad improve their soil, and at fh« same time bringing in moré and easier income. - « * ■'■'■{’Hi PA0E4 ТШ5 MOCKSVILLE (N.

Oraham of the University of North Carolina, before the Alabama Con­ gress of Parents and Teachers at the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, in which he made another strong appeal for fed­ eral aid to education and to hospital and rural health cen­ ters, made a big hit In the home state of Senator Lister Hill, who Is sponsoring the two bills, according to reports reach­ ing Washington. "The fog which has surrounded the proposed plan for federal aid to education has been cleared for Aubumltes by Pi«sldent Oraham,” now regarded as the foremost cham­ pion outside of Washington of this proposed legislation, says an editorial in “The Plainsman,” student paper at Auburn. “In a Short, brilliant speech he pointed out why the nation must give federal aid to public schools if we are to maintain freedom of opportunity. “'President Oraham thoroughly convhiced his audience that federal aid for public schools is vital to the future of the South. At the same time he quickly put the idea of fed­ eral control into the background.” The editorial referred to the “Hill Bills”—for federal aid to education and to hospital and rural health centers— now before Congress, as “two of the most progressive pieces of legislation for the South In recent years.” President Oraham recently told the House Committee conducting hearings on the bills that while speaking in a Southern State, a heckler hi the audience said: I “If the federal government grants money to the State of New York, under its new constitution It may use that money for the transportation of Catholic school children. Ilierefore, I am opposed to federal aid to education.” Dr. Oraham remarked on the xmreasonableness of this Attitude. He told the committee that, if New York wanted to make transpcrtatlon available to all children, regardless of the school they attended, it sihould be allowed to do so without any interference from the federal government. He insisted that, in framing a law for federal aid to education, we must think above all things of the child. Why, President Oraham asked, should a school bus driver be required to ask a child Whether he or she is go­ ing to a public or non-public schools? “We should not deny any child the right to walk on public sidewalks,” he said, “so why should they be denied the right to ride in a public school bus taking children to school?” Good Neighbor Policies Oood Neighbor Policies extend to more than serious attempts to restore the Oerman people; to something more than good-will between the Americas. They extend to the many groups within our own country; Indians, Negroes, Chinese, Poles, and the numerous other racial groups which make up America. A good Neighbor Policy implies more goodness and forbearance upon the part of him who would play the neighbor, than upon the part of him to whom he would play neighbor. There are quite a number of Japanese In America, the third generation, or Nesei, as they are called. These Japanese have demonstrated their loyalty to America. Our soldiers testify that they were among the finest soldiers we had In Italy. No person should be maltreated on account of his race or color, but solely on his own character. That Is what we teach about Democracy, and that Is what we should practice. Here In the south our chief racial problem lies in the relationships between the white and Negro races. We have spoken, and continue to speak of the inferiority of the Negro. That there has existed an Intellectual and social inferiority is quite true—but, as people who profess to be Christian, it Is time that we were asking WHY THE IN­ FERIORITY? Scientists have demonstrated that differ­ ences in ability do not lie In the color of the skin, but in the environment, and especially the environment of op­ portunity. It Is always the duty of the strong to help the weak. No man with a need can stand beside one who has, without his standing there making Its own appeal for help. Friendliness, kindness, good-will towards the Negro; helping him to work out his social and economic salvation within his own race has nothing to do with what we are always dragging In as social equality. North Carolina leads the South in such friendly efforts, and our own Oovernor Cherry Is manifesting some fine qualities of leadership in that direction. The strong race always lifts itself when H tries tolift the weiaker one^^ ^ ^ ^ USED CLOTHING REPORT MADE Clothing contributed by the American people will reach mil­ lions ot war victims overseas be­ fore winter sets in, according to a report from Henry J. Kaiser, national chairman of the United National Clothing collection. E. C. Tatum, local chairman of the clothing drive, who received the report, made it public today. It dUclosed that 20,397,427 pounds of clothing had been baled as of July 23. Of this amount, 15,564,206 pounds had been shipped or were specia- cally scheduled for shipment, and arrangements are )>elng made to ship the balance. Mr. Kaiser’s report pointed out that the clothing already ship­ ped or specifically scheduled for shipment will aid people in nine countries in t h e fololwlng amounts: Belgium , 1,816,284 pounds; Czechoslovakia, 2,022,- 276 pounds; France, 3,535,816 p ou n d s; Greece, 1,334,472 pounds; Italy, 340,045 pounds; the Philippines, 1,041,725 pounds; Yugoslavia, 4,423,647 pounds; Oh'lna, 50,000 pounds; Russia, 1,000,000 pounds. Commenting on this report, Mr. Tatum said "Every person who helped our community col­ lect approximately 2,300 pounds of clothing for overseas war re­ lief should feel proud <of having participated In this great cause. We are all glad to know that the clothing is now on its way over­ seas to relieve the sullering peo­ ple. We warmly welcome the official assurance of Mr. Kaiser of a baling and shipping pro­ gram designed to get pur con­ tributions, along.with those of every other American commu­ nity, on the backs of the needy boys and girls and men and women before winter.” Mr. Tatum, summarizing fig­ ures cited by Mr. Kaiser, said that reports filed by 7,671 local chairmen in cities and towns all over the nation showed collec­ tions totaling 150,366,014 pounds of used clothes, shoes and bed­ ding.

State College Hintf To Farm Homemakers By RVTH CVRRENT N. C. State Colicfe Prospects of a sizeable drop In civilian supplies of commercial­ ly canned foods—particularly to­ matoes—is an added incentive for putting up plenty of tomatoes at home this summer. If a tomato plant gives a good average yield of 9 pound« of tomatoes, this will be enough to can about 3 quart Jars of toma­ toes. On the average, 0 to 10 plants will yield a bushel of to­ matoes—enough for putting up 15 to 20 Quarts of tomatoes. Gardeners who want to get the most in vitamin value from their sweet peppers will pick them red instead of green. This sugges­ tion comes from scientists who recently tested different varie­ ties of peppers at different stages of growth. Peppers are rich in both vita­ min A and C when they are at the mature green stage, but they show a remarkable Increase as they redden. Ten varieties of peppers grown at the Rhode Is­ land Station increased an aver­ age of 3,175 per cent in caro­ tene and 49 per cent in ascorbic acid as they became red. Fi- mlento peppers grown at the Georgia Station and harvested late in the season after frost were 50 per cent richer in as­ corbic acid tllian those harvest­ ed early hi the season. Even the small amounts of sweet peppers ordinarily used stuffed or in salad, or to add color and flavor to main dishes may do a considerable bit to­ ward adding food value to fam­ ily meals, especially if they are allowed to become red-ripe. Stuffed red peppers are attrac­ tive, and deliclousr and sliced red peppers add appetizing color and flavor to salads as do green, say nutrition specialists. There are some indications ithat the downward trend in the farm labor supply may have ended, according to the United States department of agricul­ ture. Hybrid com acreage has been expanded at such a rate as to make up nearly two-thirds of America’s corn acreage today, according to federal statisti­ cians. Whatever befalls the Japs, they invited it and forced us to give it to them. You can’t offer peace terms to a rabid dog.

"Really?” snorted the nattily, etc. "Well, you’re perfectly wel­ come to search me.” Dead Patient A professor at medical achool asked a student how much of a certain drug should be adminis­ tered to a patient: Young Man: “Five grains.” A minute later he raised his hand.

CIVILIAN JEEP’S PRICE That drivin’, four wheeled demon, thé jeep, as now adapted for civilian use, has been provided with a dcdlar* and-cent celling price of $1,000 f. o. b. Toledo, Ohio. This figure will be plus taxes and the customary trade additions for transportation handling and optional equip* ment. The price is somewhat higher than the pre-war s^ttng price of light passenger cars, because the civilian jeep is not primarily a passenger car vehicle but falls into ttie utility trucking classilcation. With all listed accessories, Which can be had Individu- ally as on a passenger car, the civilian jeep will sell ftnr a few cents under $1,350, plus federal excise tax. Improvements over the military jeep, OPA said, inclrad6 the addition,of a drop back and the addition of a heavier frame plus sealed beam headlights. Some purely military features of the war-time jeep has been eliminated. GAS FOR VETERANS Up to 30 gallons of galline will be provided discharged servicemen for use in attending to personal affairs and making adjustments to civilian life, OPA has announced. Issuance of the ration is restricted to enlisted men who had been seperated from active service no longer than 30 days on August 3 or thereafter before making application and is the largest ration possible under present allocations edam available to civilians. This program would not affect the one already in prac­ tice of allowing special gasoline rations to service men har­ ing more than a three-day leave. FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question: When is the best time for seeding alfalfa? Answer: About September 1, so that the plants can establish a good root system before win­ ter weather begins. From a practical standpoint, the agro­ nomists suggest that the land be prepared in early August so as to find It good practice to seed alfalfa In “turnip weather,” or Just before the rain. Question: Is overfeeding of cows harmful? Answer: John A. Arey, Exten­ sion dairyman, says that over­ feeding is not an' economical practice. Feeding a full ration never means overfeeding. It means feeding each cow accord­ ing to her ability to prpduce milk economically. A cow capa­ ble of producing, around 260 pounds of butterfat a year uses about 50 per cent of a full ra­ tion to maintain her body. The other 50 per cent goes into pro­ ducing milk. Question: Will a pinch of salt help egg whites hold their stiff­ ness when whipped? Answer: Yes, say the food specialists at State College. An­ other trick to learn is that the white whips best at room tem­ peratures. How long to whip is another secret the cook needs to know. Whip until the white will hold up In a soft peak and looks glossy, but not so long that It Rotarians Have Group Singing Group Sbjiging, with Miss Sarah Foster as leader and Miss Marie Johnson as accompanist, fea­ tured the meeting of the Rotary club Tuesday. Phil Johnson was In. charge of the program. The meeting was held at the high school, the meal served by the Mocksville Womans club. The meal consisted of fried chicken, creamed potatoes, bean and corn, together with strips of ham, slic­ ed tomatoes, hot rolls, brown sugar pie, iced tea. Those serving were Miss Ruth Booe, Mesdames Christine Daniel, J. W. Davis and G. O. Boose.

The district headquar­ ters oflice has been established In MocksvlUe, but a achedule of work will be made so that the health officer’s time wUl be more or less equitably divided among the three counties. Dr. Mordecal’s appointment was effective July 1, 1945, but It waa underatood that a few weeka would be neceasary for visits to other health depart­ ments preliminary to commenc­ ing the local work. Since July 1, Dr, Mordecal has been an ob- aerver and atudent In the clty- county health department of Wlnston-Salem, Sallabury and Chapel HUl, He alao made a vlalt of ten days to the U. S. pub­ lic health service medical center In Durham, Dr, Mordecal atates that cllnlca and procedurea In tbe Davie, Stokes and Yadkin county health department wUl proceed along the llnea already estab- llahed with perhaps greater em­ phasis upon disease prevention and health education. Dr, Mordecal further states that hla hobby la gardening. As a general thing he believes this hnportant phase of life Is too much neglected by county resi­ dents throughout the state. Is Is altogether too frequent that one sees the money crops —to­ bacco, cotton and corn, planted too close to the house—no place being reserved whatever for the kitchen garden., If ChUdren are to have good bone and tooth development they need a greater variety of fresh vegetables over a longer period, as weU aa freah eggs and mUk. Right now—August 3—is the time to prepare the garden for a fall and winter crop—cab­ bage, collarda, beets, fresh snap beans, radishes, trunlps for greens, kale, mustard and let­ tuce. These Items-are aU excellent health foods when properly pre­ pared and people should learn to Uke them. MELON FEAST T. C.

He underwent an ppemtlon for the injury, was home for several months recuperating and when he re­ turned to duty, he began to «^ecialize as a bombardier. He still pilots, however, at lower altitudes. 27 MONTHS OVERSEAS Major Ferebee spent 27 months overseas in the Euro­ pean theatre, flying 61 missions. He returned home in the spring of 1944, shortly after he had been promoted to his majonty. While overseas he won many honors, decorations and hau some close calls. He чшз twice winner of the Distinguished Plying Cross; holds thÄAir medal with 10 Oak Leaf Clusters and five Bronze sirvlce Stars; was the bombardier on Colonel Tib- bet’s В-Ш in the first strike against occupied Europe from EnglanÄ; was a member of Tibbet’s plane that flew Oeneral Eisenifower and Oen. Mark Clark to Gibraltar when final plans were laid for the invasion of North Africa; flew as lead bombardier of the formation making the first bomb strike in the North African invasion. SHOT DOWN TWICE Relatives report that Major Perebee was shot down at least twice during the time he was in Europe, the plané making forced landings on both occasions. On one mis­ sion the landing was made in the water 200 miles from shore and the members of the crew were picked up by a British cruiser after they had floated around for about 18 hours. On another mission Oerman flak killed a buddy In the ship and he fell on Major Perebee, causing some cuts around his face. On another occasion in this country a B-29 developed trouble over a western town, became enveloped in flames and It was necessary to continue to fly the ship until open country was reached when he baled out, the last man to leave the plane which crashed in the countryside. APPEARANCE Major Ferebee is flve feet, 11 inches tall, weighs about 180 pounds, has blue eyes and brown hair. He is гштаг- ried, is popular with the ladies and has a sweetheart who is a model and lives in Kansas City, Mo.

С.; John, who owhs a portion of the farm adjoining his parents; Tom, Bill, who Is a machinist flrst class in the navy now on Okinawa and who has been in service since August, 1940; Mrs. Zella Virginia Harris, Burlington; Mrs. Katherine Loudermilk, Atlanta; i^an d a Lee, at home, a rising senior at Appalach­ ian Stal« Teachers college; Maxine, Luela, Joe and Carolyn, all at home, BOMBING EXPLAINED In explaining the details of the atomic bombing, which carries more destruçtion than 2,p00 Superforts or 20,000 tons of TNT, Captain Parsons said: “It was 0915 (9:15 a. m.) when we dropped our bomb and we turned the plane broadside to get the best view,” said Captain Parsons. “Then we made as much distance from the ball of flre as we could. “We were at least ten miles away and there was a visual Impact even though every man wore colored glasses for pro­ tection. We had braced ourselves when the bomb was gone for the shock and Tlbbets said ‘close flak’ and it was just like that—a close burst of anti-aircraft flre. “The crew said ‘My God’ and couldn’t believe what had happened. . . 1’^ “A mountain of smoke was going up in a mushroom With the stem coming down. At the top was white smoke but up to 1,000 feet from the ground there was swirling, boiling dust. Soon afterward small flres sprang up on thç edge of town but the town was entirely obscured. We stayed around two or three minutes and by that time the SHOOTING STAR' IN FLIGHT Aptly named is the ‘,‘Shooting Star” P-80, the new army Jet plane pictured here in flight in the vicinity of Wright Field, Ohio. It travels across the sky with meteoric speed and is as beautiful to watch as a real shooting star. Actual speed In m. p. h. is still kept secret by the army. This is an official U.S.army air forces photo. Ntt) .: i 1 t/.J smoke had risen to 10,000 feet. As we watched the top of the white cloud broke off and another soon formed.” Details of the bombing were disclosed at a press con­ ference attended by Oen. Carl Spaatz, who termed the new bomb the “most revolutionary development in the history of the world.” Spaatz was obviously highly elated at the new bomb­ ing weapon. He sc id if he had had it in Europe “it would have shortened the war six to eight months.” Maj. Gen Cur­ tis Lemay said that if this bomb had been available there would have been “no need to have had D-day in Europe.” Grim details of what happened on the ground came only from Tokyo. The enemy broadcast revealed that the blast was so terrible that the dead could not be distinguish­ ed from the injured. Neither could be idehtifled. Destruc­ tion was so great, and need for relief so urgent, that au­ thorities had been unable to establish the extent of civilian casualties. FUTURE USE UI4CERTAIN There was no hint when the next atomic bomb would be dropped, but Washington and London toyed with the theory that Japan soon would be given a final uncondi­ tional surrender ultimatum before the next atom is drop­ ped. Spaatz did say that the Japanese would be warned by leaflet that they could expect more such raids. COST TWO BILLION . President Truman said it cost two billion dollars to de­ velop the atomic bomb; th^t this country and Britain had the secret, scientists of the two countries working together since 1940. Sites where the bombs are made are located at Oak Ridge, near Knoxville, Tenn. ,at Richland, near Pasco, Wash., and an installation near Santa Pe, N. M. As many as 125,000 were working in the plants but they .^id not know what they were making. The atomic bomb is a harnessing of the basic power of the universe and a force from which the sun draws its power, the president said. The president added that atomic energy may supplant the power that now comes from coal oil and falling water. Production of the bomb was one of the greatest war secrets in the history of the world. ..BRING ORDER OUT OF CHAOS A couple of Yanks of the V. S.

"Thank God it’s over," was the expression which weis gen­ erally heard In the happy and unrestrained crowd, A community service of thanks­ giving and singing of hymns, led by Dr. J, E. Pritchard, was held at the Methodist church here Wednesday morning at 10 a. m. All busines houses were closed all day Wednesday. The celebration In the county was held by the ringing of church bells. On Wednesday most of the farmers were back at work. Cash Your Milk Draft Information Just received from the State AAA office shows 32,- 009 drafts issued prior to Nov, 1, 1944, to dairy farmers were out­ standing as of June 30, 1945. In view of the number out­ standing it Is likely that many farmers have temporarily mis­ placed their drafts and have for­ gotten about them. Fanners par­ ticipating in the dairy program who have failed to cash their drafts are urged to do so at once in order to assist CCC in their record keeping.

MASONIC PICNIC IS BIGGEST IN HISTORY, REPORTS SHOW The 1945 Masonic picnic held last week appears to have been the biggest in history, both in attendance and receipts, accord­ ing to a partial check-up by Knox Johnstone, chairman. There were 9,212 paid admis­ sions at the gate, although some of these were perhaps duplica­ tions due to the fact that tickets were changed at 6 p. m. There were 97 dinner baskets against 84 in 1943 and the re­ ceipts were $650. W, Kerr Scott, commissioner of agriculture, was the princi­ pal speaker and he urged an Improvement In the rural church to keep pace with mate­ rial Improvements which have come to the farm, A group-of boys and girls from the Oxford Orphatlage sang songs during the morning and afternoon, Jacob Stewart was In charge of the program. A • group ' of ' Shrlners from Charlotte, led by Lee Folger, brought a new feature to the occasion, the "Dixie Doodlers," who gave an enjoyable program in the evening in the arbor. Drinks and sandwiches were sold out by evening but some thirsty people managed to get ice water. There was a full pa­ tronage of the rides and amuse­ ments.

Peace came to the world last Tuesday night when President Truman announced that Japan has accepted unconditional surrender and that Allied forces have been ordered to cease firing. Oen. Douglas MacArthur, “the man who came back,” was named supreme Allied commander to receive the formal Japanese surrender. World War II—^The bloodiest conflict in all of human history—^was at an end, except for the formality of signing surrender documents. V-J Day will not be proclaimed until after the Instru­ ments of surrender aré signed. The three Allies in the Pacific war—Oreat Britain, Russia and China—will be represented at the signing by high ranking officers. Mr. Truman proclaimed the glad tiding at 7 p. m. (EWT) shortly after he received Tokyo’s formal reply to the Allied surrender terms. Summoning reporters to his office, he read a statement which said: , “I deem this reply a full acceptance of the Potsdam declaration which specified thelmconditional surrender of ' Japan. Tokyo informed Mr. Truman that Emperor Hirohlto la prepared “to authorize and ensure the signature by the Japanese government and the imperial general headquar­ ters the necéssary terms for carrying out the provisions ot the Potsdam declaration,” ‘ i His Majesty is also prepared to issue his commands^ to all the military, naval and air authorities of Japan and all the forces under their control wherever located to cease active operations, to surrender arms and to issue such other orders as may tie required by the supreme commander of the Allied forces of the execution of the above mentioned' terms.” Thus was the “infamy” of Pearl Harbor fully avenged three years, eight months and seven days after Japanese planes struck a nearly-mortal blow against the United States without warning. Japan had paid the full penalty for the treachery that plunged the United States into a two-front war—the cost­ liest in all history. The terms of blood and treasure, the great conflict had cost the United States more than 1,000,000 casualties and $300,000,000,000. The most to the world was more than 55,000,000 casualties and a trillion dollars in money, mate­ rials and resources. World War II ended six years—less 17 days—after Ger­ many precipitated it by marching into Poland. The end was announced calmly by Mr, Truman who declared a two-day holiday—Wednesday and Thursday— for all federal employes throughout the nation. \ ' Other vents which thè surrender set in motion include; From now on, only men under 26 will be drafted. Army draft calls will be cut from 80,000 a month to 50,000, Mr. Truman forecast that five to five and a half million soldiers may be released within 12 to 18 months. The Navy piled a $6,000,000,000 cancellation of con­ tracts on top of a previous $1*200,000,000 cut in its ship­ building program. Congress was summoned back to work on September 5, more than a month ahead of schedule, to get busy on unem­ ployment compensation, surplus property disposal,. full employment, government reorganization, and the continu­ ation or abolition of war agencies. The office of censorship said it was getting ready to fold up. News, radio, and mail censorsihip are due to end onV-JDay. f Director Elmer Davis declared the life of the office of war information “soon will be over." A war production board official predicted that agency ' would go out of business once Industry is on a solid peace- time basis. ' 'U ’<■ Jl r t í - ; ’ PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

None of the other occupants of the car was injured, It is thought that Miss Smith had her head leaning out of the car window and that when tlie vehicle failed to make the curve, her head was caught between the door and the ground. Her skull was crushed. Helton, his wife and Miss Smith had driven to Bheek’s service station, Just across the (contlnned on page I) CELEBRATE VICTORY Shortly after President Truman announced Tuesday night that the Japs had surrendered, Mocksville celebrated by a pa­ rade through the streets with horns and sirens of the fJre en­ gines and ambulances blowing, church bills ringing and a final impromptu dance in the street around the square. "Thank God it's over," was the expression which was gien- erally heard in the happy and unrestrained crowd. A community service of thanks­ giving and singing of hymns, led by Dr. J. E. Pritchard, was held at the Methodist church here Wednesday morning at 10 a. m. All busines houses were closed all day Wednesd£(y. The celebration in the county was held by the ringing of church bells. On Wednesday most of the farmers were back at work. Cash Your Milk Draft Information just received from the State AAA office shows 32,- 009 drafts issued prior to Nov. 1, 1944, to dairy farmers were out­ standing as of June 30, 1945. In view of the number out­ standing It is likely that many farmers have temporarily mis­ placed their drafts and have for­ gotten about them. Farmers par ­ ticipating in the dairy program who have failed to cash their drafts are urged to do so at once In order to assist CCC in their record keeping.

MASONIC PICNIC IS BIGGEST IN HISTORY, REPORTS SHOW The 1945 Masonic picnic held last week appears to have been the biggest in history, both in attendance and receipts, accord­ ing to a partial check-up by Knox Johnstone, chairman. Therfe were 9,212 .paid admis­ sions at the gate, although some of these were perhaps duplica­ tions due to the fact that tickets were changed at 6 p. m. There were 97 dinner baskets against 84 in 1943 and the re­ ceipts were $658. W. Kerr Scott, commissioner of agriculture, was the princi­ pal speaker and he urged an improvement In the rural church to keep pace with mate­ rial improvements which have come to the farm. A group of boys and girls from the Oxford Or.phatlage sang songs during the morning and afternoon. Jacob Stewart was in charge of the program. A • group ' of ' Shriners from Charlotte,' led by Lee Folger, brought a new feature to the occasion, the “Dixie Doodlers,” who gave an enjoyable program in the evening in the arbor. Drinks and sandwiches were sold out by evening but some thirsty people managed to get ice water. There was a full pa­ tronage of the rides and amuse­ ments. ON HIT SHIP Avalon Frye, son of Mr. and Mrs. Claude Frye of Mocksville, was a member of the crew on the battleship Mississippi that was hit by a suicide Jap plane last January at Lingayen Gulf, caus­ ing 40 casualties.

Peace came to the world last Tuesday night when President Truman announced that Japan has accepted unconditional surrender and that Allied forces have been ordered to cease firing. Gen. Douglas MacArthur, “the man who came back,” was named supreme Allied commander to receive the formal Japanese surrender. World War II—The bloodiest conflict in all of human history—was at an end, except for the formality of signing surrender documents. V-J Day will not be proclaimed until after the instru­ ments of surrender are signed. The three Allies in the Pacific war—Great Britain, Russia and China—will be represented at the signing by high ranking officers. Mr. Truman proclaimed the glad tiding at 7 p. m. (EWT) shortly after he received Tokyo’s formal reply to the Allied surreniier terms. Summoning reporters to his office, he read a statement which said: / “I deem this reply a full acceptance of the Potadam declaration which specifled the-unconditional surrender oi Japan. Tokyo informed Mr. Truman that Emperor Hlrohito le prepared “to authorize and ensure the signature by the Japanese government and the imperial general headquar­ ters the necèssary terms for carrying out the provislone ot the Potsdam declaration." > >01 His Majesty is also prepared to issue his commands to all the military, naval and aiir authorities of Japan and all the forces under their control wherever located to cease active operations, to surrender arms and to Issue such other orders as may be required by the supreme commander of the Allied forces of the execution of the above mentioned terms.” , Thus was the “infamy" of Pearl Harbor fully avenged three years, eight months and seven days after Japanese planes struck a nearly-mortal blow against the United States without warning, Japan had paid the full penalty for the treachery that plunged the United States into a two-front war—the cost­ liest in all history. The terms of blood and treasure, the great conflict had cost the United States more than 1,000,000 casualties and $300,000,000,000. The most to the world was more than 55,000,000 casualties and a trillion dollars in money, mate­ rials and resources. World War II ended six years—less 17 days—after Ger­ many precipitated it by marching into Poland.- The end was announced calmly by Mr. Truman who declared a two-day holiday—Wednesday and Thursday— for all federal employes throughout the nation. , ' Other vents which thé surrender set in motion include: From now on, only men under 26 will be drafted. Army draft calls will be cut from 80,000 a month to 50,000. Mr. Truman forecast that five to five and a half million soldiers may be released within 12 to 18 months. The Navy piled a $6,000,000,000 cancellation of con­ tracts on top of a previous $1^200,000,000 cut in its ship­ building program. Congress was summoned back to work on September 5^ more than a month ahead of schedule, to get busy on unem­ ployment compensation, surplus propèrty disposal, .full employment, government reorganization, and the continu­ ation or abolition of war agencies. The office of censorship said it was getting ready to fold up. News, radio, and mall censorship are due to end on‘y-JDay. . ' birector Elmer Davis declared the life of the оШ(» of war Information “soon will be over.” A war production board official predicted that agency would go out oi business once Industry is on a solid peftce- time basis. ■ i ■ • ■ ^ r.'-, PAGE 2 l.,v’ f r r/ , f r ^ ^ ^ , V, p THE MOCKSVILLE (N.

Summer Ailments My Be Avoided Pointing out that Illnesses be­ tween the middle of July and the last of August were erroneously attributed to dog-days, Dr. Mor- decal, district health officer, points out some precautions which citizens may take to avoid outbreaks of fevers, diarrhea and hydrophobia. Dr. Mordecal’s suggestions are; 1. Screen your houses and avoid mosquitoes, and you will not contract malaria (chills and fever). 2. Swat the fly, guard your drinking water and strengthen your resistance against typhoid fever by being Inoculatod against this disease early each summer. Late, however. Is better than not at kll. This will protect you against this serious infection. 3. Cut the weeds about your premises, fill up the mud holes and use plenty of soap and water on your skin. This will cut down the sores and ground Itch too.I Birr WAK В О М М -вТА М М NEWS OF FARM CONSERVATION , By o. w. McCle llan J. O. Crawford, near Coolecmfee had the District Personnel to survey a site for locating a fish pond recently. Mr. Crawford plans to build a pond according to the latest specifications using control methods to eliminate silt­ ing from adjoining fields. On a field nearby, Mr. Craw­ ford waa plowing under an enormous amount of sweet clover and lespedeza. This practice will retard erosion considerably. Farmers are learning the need for more humua in their soils. Without humus, soils are merely weak minerals. Thomas Nance, near Bixby has been trying to control water with ditches for several years. This year he decided to build some terraces with the assistance of the District. He Is proud of his terraces and Is doing some more. He says he places a high value on the good he has gotten from terraces in a five acre cotton field. J. Lee Cartner, near Smoot’s Store is making preparations to sow an acre of Improved pas­ ture. He is going to use ladlno clover in his mixture. He saw how well ladlno clover was do­ ing on the Oroce farm when he visited It last spring. T. O. Cart­ ner, on an adjoining farm made a meadow strip last fall, limed, fertilized, aAd sowed grasses and clovers. Now he can turn water on to It, also get hay from It.

Jtaitered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second- •Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 1879 Tom Ferebee Scholarship Fund We have heard many expressions this week from Davie county citizens about means of honoring Major Tom Fere­ bee when he comes home from the war. Of course his name has gone around the world, and with that the name of Mocksville, after he dropped that first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Long after all of us are gone—and the atomic bomb and atomic energy will be vastly improved from to­ day—his name will still be that of the pioneer bombardier. His name and that of the crew will be similar to the Wright brothers who flew the first airplane. Of course Davie county will want to honor one of her most noted war heroes. A celebration of “Tom Ferebee day,” for instance, certainly would be in order at the ap­ propriate time. Nevertheless, we think the folks of the cotmty would like to see something permanent accomplished to his mem­ ory. We suggest that no better could be found than the establishment of a scholarship fund for the education of Davie county youths. Everybody in the county could, and should, have a part in contributing towards such a fimd which, like the Masonic picnic, can grow in stature and usefulness each year. Perhaps the local Rotary club might find the sponsorship of such a fund appealing. The Way Of Empires There were some of us who felt, when Singapore fell, that the old British Empire had passed. Recent events seem to confirm that belief. There will always be an Eng­ land, and a great England, One has only to remember how England stood up under the worst of Hitler’s slows to be cpnvlnced ot England’s greatness and a firmer belief in her future glory. England is great—and England will con­ tinue to be great. ji However, that greatness will be manifested under dif- ierent social, economic, and political conditions. The con­ servative party in England represented too much of the Idaels and practices of bygone ages. Democracy is some­ thing more than a name in the modem world. Public schools, the theatre, the church and many other social and religious influences have opened the minds, and the tastes of the masses of people. They want to share in the cultural and social progress of the world, and they realize that be­ fore they can do so they must share in the economic opportunities which make such culture possible. Under a constitutional monarchy, England has had more de­ mocracy'than is generally recognized. But the people there are determined to have more, and they showed in the recent election that' they know somethings of the pro­ cesses through which more democracy can be secured. There will be a great England in the future; a great Com­ monwealth of Nations, but It will be a Commonwealth in which all the people concerned will have a share in making and enjoying. Politicians In this contry might well note what happened in England, In States T-4 Marrln A. Creamn, son of Mr. and Mn. J. T, Creason of Cooleemee has returned to the states from 59 months In the Pacific. He has been throu(h the Mariannas and Siapan cam­ paigns and has been awarded the good conduct medal with 1 battle star. Under the point sys­ tem his score Is 89 points. Winston Churchill , The majority of people in the United States were sad­ dened by the defeat of Winston Churchill—the man 'who had safely steered-England through one of the greatest crisis in her history, • But his defeat was not something personal. The people of England appreciate him, and England will continue tcf show lier appreciation of him in personal ways. However, the greatness of this one man, and the genuine affection for'him were hot sufficient to hold the party which he represented in power, Churchill will have little to worry about. He played his ix)le and played it well. History will, accord him a place with the world’s great. He will stand out always as a synonym for faith and courage. He will"be a symbol of Britian in the same way that the lion has been her sym­ bol, Nor, is that respect and affection confined to England, Whereever there are free peoples, and as long as freedom endures there will be world-wide affection and respect for the man who kept faith and courage in the hearts of all free men high enough to withstand the greatest on­ slaughts of the'enemy, and to fight on until victory came.

ENTERHUSE PAOET GAS RATIONING NAY BEOVER WITHIN WEEK AFTER VICTORY WON Washington—Emergency plans ready, government agen­ cies await a white signal to start the American economy toward a goal of unprecedented civilian production. The signal, due when Japan quits, also will serve to un­ veil programs for putting millions of released war workers in peacetime jobs as rapidly as possible and for gradual lifting of rationing and other wartime restrictions. Expected quickly, too, are plans that may provide for «asing of stringent wage controls and outline the scope of price controls in the immediate postwar period. In the meantime, this is the home-front outlook as the war appears to be nearing the end: Rationing—^Elimination of gasoline, fuel oil and tire programs within a few days to six weeks after V-J day; gasoline may be released within a week. Shoe rationing is due to go in two or three months. Food, especially meat and sugar, will stay under controls for some time because of continuing military requirements. Consumer Goods—Volume production before the end of this year, particularly of such small items as toasters. Irons and other home appliances. At least 500,000 passenger «ars, double the number planned originally, are expected. Refrigeretors and washing machines also are likely to be in good supply late this year. Price and Rent Controls—Due to be retained for at le^t six months, possibly a year on a limited scale. ''Manpower — Government officials estiitiate at least 5,000,000 war workers will lose their jobs within six months after V-J day. They make no prediction how long it will be before these workers can be absorbed in civilian produc­ tion. Travel—Troop demobilization is expected to prevent lifting of restrictions for at least 60 days. All agencies with a part in reconversion have been told by the White House to say nothing about their plans until President Truman gives the word. Steps are being taken to trim drastically the current $48,000,000,000 annual rate of munitions production. Over the weekend the navy halted construction of 95 ships that would have cost $1,200,000,000, and the army indicated its purchasing would be cut more than $25,000,000,000 on a yearly basis. With even more cutbacks to come, production officials estimated that manufacture for military purposes would plummet to a rate of aniund $12,000,000,000 a year within a few weeks after Japan folds. This expenditure would be mainly for maintenance and repair and for experimental projects. As for reconversion, the war production board said it is all set with a “clear, simple and orderly” plan to lead industry from tremendous mimtions production to record output of consumer goods. In striving to achieve this goal set by Mr. Truman, the agency plans to drop many controls at once, retaining only those required to prevent “a chaotic scramble for mate­ rials” and to avoid Inflationary prices. To help provide jobs quickly, WPB . plans to use its priorities assistance authority to rush expansion of manu­ facturing plant facilities. Any peacetime production proj­ ect which will serve to reduce xinemployment will get a green light Immediately. ‘ The agency is not worried about materials. In fact, a WPB official said the war’s end will mean a flood of steel and other materials for consumer goods. The only brake on production, he added, will be lim­ ited plant facilities and the time required for manufacture to hit its stride. The government’s gravest concern appears to be over mass unempl03rment expected during the months industry is struggling to get full peacetime production under way. War manpower commission officials have said it is “anybody’s guess" how long it wiil take to get war workers into consumer goods jobs. They expect, however, that fall will be well along before the upward.surge of joblessness can be reversed.

He found that Sherman’s army had overlooked just one product of his farm, a bundle of leaf tobacco., With the help of his sons “Buck” and “Ben,” he flailed this tobacco by hand, loaded it Into a wagon drawn by two blind mules he had brought back with him from “the surrender,” , and peddled it on overnight trips. ' iThus was begun:... by thrift, under free industry .. * ^ the tobacco fortune that within a generation began to enrich the life of the Carolinas through endowment for fechools, orphanages, and hospitals; the founding of a great University where Truth frees men’s mlnda; and the development of a power company that has grown^ and will grow, by serving.

It would comprise a foot­ ball field and a baseball field, be sodded and have running water available. No grandstand is contemplated tor the present. The clut^ house would be of sufficient size to afford a meet­ ing place for the publlo gather­ ings, including the facilities for serving meals. Robert S. McNeill, who presided at the meeting, outlined the plans and Mayor W, M, Pen­ nington announced that the town board at a special meeting iMt Thursday night had agreed/ to maintain the park should the building be done. Maintenance ot the park by the town would include a care­ taker who would live in a propos­ ed cottage to be erected some­ where near the center ot thes , park. The park would then have» supervision and police protec* tlon. '-"'■•.i, Mr, McNeill appointed two committees to investigate costs of the athletic field. Dr. P. H. Mason is chairman ot the ath­ letic committee, together with J, K. Sheek and Dr, G. V. Oreene. On the building com­ mittee are E. C. Morris, chair­ man, Orady Ward and J. P. Le- Grande. Both committees are to make their Investigations qulcJUy and report later at a special meeting . of the legion. The building com­ mittee will submit plans for the building and estimated costs ot construction. The athletic com­ mittee will determine costs tor building separate football and baseball fields, both of which will be sodded. After the tacts are obtained the‘legion will start a county- wide drive tor the necessary funds. It was roughly estimated at the Monday night meeting that the cost ot the athletic field would be around $2,000 and the remainder ot $10,000 for a club house and probably a caretaker’s cottage. ' There was some discussion at. the meeting about the present shortage ot labor and materials which would make building costs run higher than normal but It was generally agreed that now was the time to raise the money for such a project, Orady Ward reported that the legion now-has close to |1,000 which was previously raised tor; such a purpose, the money now being in war bonds. The legion owns a two-acre plot in the park which was donated by the late T. W. Rich tor a legion hiit or community club house. , д ,м, - ' “ / Ч * ' PAGE 2 ГН • THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

McQUAOE PubUahw SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $2.00 Per Year Inside ot Davie County—$2.50 Per Yeiw 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, Community Meeting House Mocksville SfXid Davie county are badly in need of a place to hold public meetings and now is the time to raise money for such a project. The local American Legion post is fostering such a place which may be called a commtmity house, legion hut or some appr(q>riate name. For the Legion this is a con­ tinuing project which war interrupted. The ^¿on has about $1,000 in War Bonds towards a structure. They also have the two acres in Rich’s park which was given them for the construction of a building. It is fitting that the legion should be the fountain he&d of a social and recreation center. It fits the organization like a glove, representing a cross section of Davie county. At a meeting at the courthouse last Monday night it was proposed that the legion members find out the cost and details of erecting an athletic field for the general public, including the high school, and a community house. Some have estimated that the present cost for both would be around $10,000. Now is certainly a good time to raise the money for such a project. Actual construction could begin when conditions are more normal. We believe the people of Mocksville and Davie will be glad to contribute for such an undertaking and we trust the legion will shortly have the details ready to present to the public. History and Cinderella Every child has loved the story of Cinderella and her Prince Charming who found the golden slipper, then the owner, and took the poor little girl from poverty to riches. We call it fiction—something imagined, but apart from real life. However, history is full of actual experiences which »r e more marvelous than fictional creations, fi' We could hot help thinking that when we saw the pictures of M r.Tnunan at the Potsdam meeting, he had income a member of the Big Three, and took his place between Stalin and Churchill (later Mr. Atlee). He moved along with the greatest men of his day, and shared with them the greatest responsiblities ever cast upon human beings. Yet, Mr. Truman was bom on the farm. He and his family have been close to the soil, and there is about him ■still the simplicity of the atmosphere in which he grew up. Fortimately, Mr. Truman has been loyal to that simplicity. High office has not affected him other than to make him feel the weight of his responsibility. His language has been simple and straightfoiward, and reflects good common sense, and an understanding of the Issues with which he has to deal. In one hundred days Mr. -Truman has had experiences which have come to few men, If, Indeed they have ever oome to another. This plain man of the people was elevated to the Presidency unexpectedly, and at a time when all the faith, courage, and brain of a nation were needed. It can truthfully be said that he has gone to the top. No nation has any greater honors to offer, as can no other situation. All America is proud of Mr. Truman. He is a living em­ bodiment and example of Democracy. We are a Democracy, and Democracy works. The people can rule. The farm boy has moved from simple life,of the country to stand with the kings and the great of the earth. Actually; he is at the top—^his simplicity and honesty bear witness to his greatness, and to the greatness of Democracy. Innocent Germans ^ A couple of war correspondents took a walk with two German girls, and this time with more ear than eye. They did a good Job of listening Just to find out what Germans were thinking about. The girls were quite prepared to propagandize the Anierlcans. They had albums of pictures showing damage by bombs. They would point out places to the Americans and say, "This Is what you did". “This Is what your bombers did”. But never once did they refer to all those years when Germans went goose stepping over the, world murdering, raping, robbing, destroying. That evidently, was quite all right to the German mind. Tliei only crime of which they could possibly think was an Injury to a German. . The price ot rayon staple tlber has been reduced trom 60 cents a pound in IMO to about 24 cents at present.

"I want a seat on the next plane to Chicago.” We’re not sure whether the ticket agent was given a week’s vacation to recuperate or not. Fertilize Grains Before Planting Vnless small grahis are plant­ ed after suoh liberally fertilized crops as cotton and tobacco, they should receive fertilization be­ fore planting, says Enos Blair, Extension agronomist .at State College. Where legume« have been turned under, the recommenda­ tion Is 300 pounds of 0-12-13 or 0^14-7 per acre. After com or hay crops, small grains require a complete fertilizer. ’The recom­ mendation for the Coastal Plain section Is 300 pounds per acre of 4-10-6 or 4-8-B and for the Piedmont and Mountahis, 300 pounds per acre of 3-12-6 or 4-12-4. In dlscunlng small, grain fer­ tilization, Blair cited an out­ standing demonstration con­ ducted by Roland Salter of Car­ teret County with oats. The plot without any fertilizer pro­ duced 31 bushels per acre. An application of 300 pounds of 4-10-6 per, acre at planting pro duced 36 ,bu^els; a topdressing of ISO pounds of nltrat^,of soda on March 1 and lio' fertuizer at planting, 53 bushels; and both fertilizer at planting and the nitrate of soda topdresser, 63 bushels per acre. On the high plot of 63 buidiels per acre, with oats valued at one dollar per bushel, the total pro­ fit from the fertilizer treatment was $24.00 per acre. Blair recently recommended the following seeding rates for small grains to those farmers who are conducting rotation ex­ periments with him: wheat, 1- IVa bushels; oats, 2-3 bushels; rye, same as for wheat; and bar­ ley, 2 bushels. As to seeding rates for winter legumes, he suggested 20 to 30 pounds of seed for crimson clov­ er per acre; vetch, IS to 25 pounds; and Austrian whiter peas, 30 to 40 pounds. Recom­ mendations for fei<tillzation axe 200 pounds of either an 0-12-12 or 0-14-7. Domestic Silence In a Philadelphia family re­ cently, the engagement of a daughter was announced.

Livestock Need A ' Good Water Supply Dirty water and unsanitary watering faculties are causing North.Carolina livestock produc ers to lose tens of,tliousandi of dollars each year, says Dr. 0. D. Orhinells, vei^lnarlan for the Agricultural Experiment Sta­ tion at State College. Outbreaks of disease often re­ sult from animals drhiklng from stale summer ponds. Even though animals are on clean pasture, drinking water from contami­ nated lots may easily sprep^ disease germa and parasites. “Plenty of clean water for all farm animals Is one of the very best health Insurance measures that a farmer can take during the summer months,” Orlnnells explains. He suggests good watering troughs that are exposed to the sun and thoroughly scrubbed at frequent intervals. The trough should be raised high enough from the ground to prevent thehr behig contaminated by the drop­ pings from the animals. Orlnnells also suggests an a- bundance of water for hogs and plenty of good shade during sum­ mer because hogs cannot per­ spire. Plenty of water for the dahry cow means greater produc­ tion of milk. Horses and mules need a good supply of water to prevent heat strokes during the summer season. Beef cattle can­ not make maximum gains with­ out adequate water. Clean water and proper water­ ing facilities pay real summer dividends In larger livestock pro­ fits. Heavy Infestations of horn worms have occurred In many tobacco growhig areas of Nof’th Carolhia, according to reports of farm agents to the State college extension otevloe. RED ARMY В А П Ш FORWARD Russian Armored Spearheads are reported making gains at al­ most all points In their attacks against the Japs. A Tokyo broad­ cast stated that Red forces landed In the Jap half of Sakhalin Islimd (1) and reached Keion. On the mainland, one Soviet army was moving up on a 360-mlle front extending from HuUn (2) to the.Korean Irontleri In the Khabarovsk area. Hallo (3) was taken. Other Red troops pushed forward (4) with Harbla as the eventual objective. In Western Manchuria, Mlentno (5) waa captured. Deepest penetration was made by unlta that passed Wangyehmlao <6) and drove on Into inner Manchuria. Sgt. Kermit Mitchell Is In East Indies AN AIR TRliUfaPORT COM­ MAND BASE IN THB N. E. I.— Sgt.

Now, Red Cross girls and Leathernecks (upper left) swim and sun themselves at leisure.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE! tkt b u r t o n WILIIAMS Utility Tables IT’S a good idea to check the con­dition of the tops of utility tables in your farm home, milk- house, dairy barn, feed room, work­shop and other buildings. Utility tables are a common necessity on the farm. Thoy make work easier •nd more convenient. But to get the best service out of them, they must have smooth, durable tops that are easy to clean. Rough, worn table tops make work difllcult. Those that are hard to clean are unsanitary, and in most cases sani­tation is very important. If your utility table tops need new surfaces, the easiest way is to cover them cll with asbestos cement board. The board comes in large sises and in most cases a table can be covered with one sheet or less. The material is easy to cut to size •nd will provide a top that is hard, sturdy «nd easy to clean. It will resist wear indeflnitely. A couple of coats of boiled linseed oil or several coats of thinned shellac wiU prevent staining.Tha few pieces that wiU be needed probably can be obtained now at vour lumber dealer because asbes- tof cement products are non>criti- eal. The material has many other usM on the farm. It makes an ideal eover for teth the iMide and but- ■idt «1 balldiani WE PAY—Oasn prices for used automobUes.

ВНТПРЖЮТ FBTOAY, AUGUST 24, IMS On The Home Front ' The Japanese surrender has brought an end to a num ber of wartime restrictions on the civilian economy. But It still leaves problems of keeping prices stable, conservation of scarce consumer goods, atid other Ьайс matters lrtv/)lved In reconversion from war to peace, according to «port* irom the Office of War Mobilization and Reconversion, WPB, OPA and other government agencies responsible for an orderly transition to a peace economy. The report of the Office of War Mobilization and Re­ conversion, submitted by John W. Snyder, director, and en titled "From War to Peace; A Challenge,” stresses that the goal 0^ our peacetime economy is a vastly expanded pro­ duction which will make possible the attainment of the four major economic objectives which face us in the months ahead. They are: Jobs for all those willing and able to work; a steadily rising standard of living; stabilization of our economy to avoid disastrous Inflation or deflation; and Increased op­ portunities for farmers and businessmen. The report highlights the following important ques­ tions that VJ-Day has raised and gives some specific an­ swers: 1. MILITARY CONTRACTS: All military contracts are being terminated Immediately, except those required for experimental- and development purposes and foi: the maintenance and supply of the armed forces. The largest continuing item in army procurement will be in food and this will be cut as fast as demobilization will permit. Navy reductions vdll be smaller and more gradual. 2. DEMOBILIZATION: Demobilization from the arm­ ed services will return from at least 7,000,000 men to civil­ ian life within the next year. At present, the army is demo­ bilizing at the rate of 170,000 per month. Within several months, the rate is expecte to reach 500,000. The army will demobilize on the same basis as formerly, releasing first those men with the longest combat service and greatest niunber of depenents. The navy plans to demobilize some of its personel, almost Immediately. Both the army and the navy will continue to draft on a reduced basis, some men to replace those of longer service. 3. UNEMPLOYMENT AND MANPOWER: All controls over manpower are to be removed and the compulsory 48- hoiu: week ended at once. The U. S. Employment Service will devote Its best efforts to finding jobs for displaced workers and veterans and assisting claimants for unem­ ployment compensation. Unemployment currently Is estimated at 1,100,000 per­ sons. This represents the total without jobs on a given day, many of them being persons “between jobs.” This total of imemployment Is expected to rise to 5,000,000 or more within three months; perhaps to 8,000,000 before next spring, as those released from war jobs are joined by large numbers of men discharged from the armed services. Many of the unemployed will find new jobs within a few weeks— others will face extended periods without jobs. 4. PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION CONTROLS: Many production and distribution controls will be removed at once. Only those will remain in force which are essen­ tial for expediting production, breaking bottlenecks, pre­ venting Inventory hoarding, and assuring economic sta­ bilization. Rationing of certain scarce commodities must continue for a while. 5. PRICE AND WAQE CONTROLS: For some period of time the dangers of Inflation will be with us. There will be more demand for many kinds of goods and services than business can supply. As long as some materials and prod­ ucts remain seriously short, price ceilings on those mate­ rials and products must be maintained as a barrier against Inflation. Rent controls also must continue. While price and rent ceilings remain in force, wage stabilization must be continued. Wherever price ceilings will not be endangered, collective bargaining will be restored. Wage and price In­ creases will be allowed to correct substandard pay scales, to relieve hardships of individual workers and enterprises and, where necessary, to stimulate Increased production. e. LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM; In order to speed re­ conversion and to mitigate the extremes of hardship dur­ ing the transition period, a number of legislative enact- mentis are needed. These Include: Increased imemployment compensation benefits; revision of the fair labor standards act to increase minimum wages; tax program to stimulate production and to maintain markets; appropriations for the planning and execution of public works; adequate ap­ propriations for the United States Employment Service and retention of this service under federal control during the interim of transition.

Mattresses need special care in warm,' humid .weather to. keep them from Acquiring я musty, odor or . mildew, say textile epeclallsbB. At least once .a week mattresses need airing, and occasionally sunning in bright dry weather. Burehlng tufts and fleams prevents duet from collect­ ing at these places. A convenient time for the weekly airing is when sheets are changed and bedding removed. Stand the mattress up so that air from open windows can reach both sides. To prevent the mat­ tress from sagging in the center or becoming lumpy, turn it from top to bottom one week, and from side to side the next week. Mak­ ing beds up each day without pulling back the covers and air­ ing may save time but does not save mattresses. Body and head moisture made up In the bed may cause a stale odor to develop. A pad between mattress and sheet protects the mattress from soil and wear. Ready-made quilt­ ed cotton pads may be hard to find in stores these days but they may be made at home« Smooth quilts, cotton, blankets, or old spreads may be used for this purpose. Many good housekeepers also protect their mattresses with covers. These are made with box­ ed corners like square slip cov­ ers and with open ends. The open ends may be fastened by tapes, snaps and slpperi The same sort of cover for open springs protects the mattress from rust and saves sheets from catching and tear­ ing, Heavy muslin Is a good mat- terlal for such covers.

FARMERS ASKED TO REFRAIN FROM SUDDEN SALE OF THEIR PRODUCTS Farmers are requested by Agri­ culture Commissioner W, Kerr Scott to refrain from the Indis­ criminate sale of agricultural commodities because of the end of the war. The sudden unloading of vari­ ous farm products on an un­ settled market can only result in glutted,market.'} and low prices, said Scott, adding that "there Is no cause for anxiety for the Im­ mediate future of agriculture.” Charging that attempts are al­ ready being made to cut prices on faim-produced Items on the claim that surpluses exist, Scott expressed the opinion that many of these so-called surpluses exist only In the minds of “middle­ men” who want to take advan­ tage of a temporarily unstable economy to reap bigger profits at the expense of the farmer and the housewife. ' Scott said he had been advised that the consensus among Gov­ ernment officials and economists is that reconversion to a stable peacetime enonomy wUl be af­ fected by next June 1. “Prom now until that time the farmer and the laborer should hold to all that is rightfully due them In prices and wages”, said Scott. .He said that high wages and consequent high prices must con­ tinue for several years If the United States is to pay off its war debt. Every city man should know that somewhere there are three and one-half acres of land taking care of him. The future of that piece of land, how it is operated, the cost of production in supply­ ing the thhigs he needs is going to determine how he comes out in the years which lie just ahead,” asserts Scott. Looking at the immediate fu­ ture, Scott explained that Europ­ ean farms were released from Nazi hands too late In the season for production of crops this year, and consequently millions of in­ nocent victims of German op­ pression will be looking to America for sustenance during the next 12 months. “There is a worldwide shortage of meat and dairy products.

HEALTH OFFICER DISCUSSES DANGER OF WHOOPING COUGH Whooping Cough has been present In Davie this summer. Dr. Mordecai, new Health Offi­ cer, points out that while com­ paratively few cases have been officially recorded, he has rea­ son to believe that there have been many casea in some sec­ tions of the county and that new cases are appearing. So far the cases have been comparatively mild due to favorable summer weather. Many cases have prob­ ably escaped recognition by the parents, who for that reason, or because of the mildness of the known cases have not sought medical advice. The critical shortage of local physicians and the limited gas for automobile transportation have also been factors In the non-professional care and non-reporting. ,Dr. Mordecai points out that Whooping Cough is not a disease to be taken lightly. It Is a serious disease. U is one of the leading causes of death in Infants under one year of age and probably causes more deaths than either Infantile paralysis (polio), or menlngltlsi regardless of age. Now that gas rationing has come to an end there will no doubt be Increased travel and a greater mixing of society.

The sum total of all this may result in an Increase of this disease and likewise a greater vlrrllence of the disease. This notice should serve as a timely warning and the follow­ ing suggestions are made: ' 1. Any child who has a cough, or coughing spells, worse at night, should be treated with suspicion. It should not be per­ mitted to visit about and expose others. It should be held under observation and a physician con­ sulted. 2. No child who has Whooping Cough or who is a suspect, should be entered in school or permit­ ted to attend movies, Sunday School, or parties until cleared by a practicing physician or Pub­ lic Health Officer. 3. All parents with children should be on the alert. Children who have not had whooping cough should be guarded against exposure in so far as possible, and very great care should be taken .with respect to delicate Infants. Whooping cough Is often fatal in this group. 4. An effective vaccine Is now on the market which will pro­ tect Infants and children against Whooping Cough and children who have not had the disease, or who have not been Inoculated against the disease, should be immunized by either private physicians or Public Health De­ partments as soon as facilities will permit. It must be remem­ bered however, that It is often three or four months after the administration of the vaccine before the child reaches the full benefit of the Injections. Expo­ sure before full immunity has been attained may result in de­ development of the disease. Bearing this point in mind par­ ents should not relax vigilance. Children should avoid exposure to the disease if possible, for at least three or four months fol­ lowing Immunization. Some parents, because of their personal feelings fail to give theif infants the benefit of pro­ tection. The discomfort of needle punctures are certainly not pleasant to think about. Neither are the mild reactions that may follow, injection. But, these are certainly insignificant when compared with a full blown case of Whooping Cough, which means many weeks of paroxysms of coughing, vomiting of food, loss of sleep, loss of weight and probably bronchial pneumonia which may lead to the cemetery. When the decision is to be made, thé parents should ask themselves two questions, to wit: What Is best? Am I fair to my child?

Those problems can be solved more rapidly and successfully if the American people will adopt the same attitude of faith, cour­ age, and patient effort that marked them in the darkest days of the war. All of the problems cannot be solved in a few days, or in a few months. We must not look to govern­ ment too much for a solution of our problems. There are a certain amount of so-called red tape measures which are necessary in large organized efforts—and there will be,more of unnecessary red tape. The congress will debate long hours and through tedious weeks. In the final analysis It will be the American people themselves who will make the transi­ tion successfully ,or render It a time of confusion. For a time there will be heavy movements of troopis and mate­ rial; there will be periods of unemployment for many per­ sons; there will be, of necessity, a lowering of earnings for many; wages and prices may fluctuate. Those are things which we must expect, but they are not causes for panic. Here, in the dark days of war, “The only thing to fear is fear.” We Americans who have worked so well, and cre­ ated so much must not become paralyzed before the pros­ pects of peace. We must have faith, courage, and patience. We must be willing to make sacrifices for peace even as we made them in war. We have resources, genius, and ability to work. The needs for peacetime production will absorb millions of war workers; there will be markets for every­ thing which can be produced for a long period. The one great danger is simply fear—a number of people afraid of that they will lose jobs, or afraid of lowered income, or afraid of competitive markets. FAITH in ourselves, mixed with willingness to work and wait, will win the peace just as they won the war. ilMERICA IN VICTORY , r August 14th, 7 P. M., came the dramatic news for which we had been looking for years, and momentarily expecting for several dfiys previous. America was wild with rejoicing, and shouts, laughter ,and tears mingled as mighty throngs celebrated. It has been a long and costly war. Billions of dollars have been spent, and millions of lives have been lost. Vacant places in many homes, and wounded in scores of hospitals will long bear/ witness to the cost in human lives. But there are, and will be, gains to balance the losses. When America went to war the powerful German army was on its march of death and destruction, and the liberties of all free men were threatened. When it seemed as if Germany would win, Japan chose that moment to attack us at Pearl Harbor, and to attack without warning. It was a mean, sneaking, dastardly blow, and it revealed the sinister char­ acter of the enemy. We knew that we had a tough job, and we found it tough going all the way. But, at last, victory has come. Once more liberty loving people may breathe easily; the brutal philosophies of Fascism and Naziism have received a mortal blow, and freedom lives again. The men who have died did not die in vain; they saved the world from the awful blight of pagan philosophies backed . by the most improved Implements of war. There can never be tributes so worded as to pay the homage due the men who died. The world owes those men more than it can ever pay. The only adequate compensation that we dan render is to see to it that their sacrifices were not in vain, and not again shall the world be plimged into war. Our celebrations must be marked also with the sober thought of what lies ahead. We must not be proud and arrogant, but humble and grateful in victory. Our true greatness must be proven by the humility and thankful­ ness which we show now, and by the sacrifices which we are willing to make for peace. Cpl. Harold F. Foster Is Serving In Manilla Manilla—Corporal Harold P. Foster, son of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Poster of 18 Joyner street, Cool­ eemee, Is serving as a Wardmas- ter In charge of Technicians car­ ing for sick and wounded on the Medical Service with the 60th Oeneral Hospital near Manilla.

C. state Collefe Tomatoes grown In the sun on healthy 'plants are consid­ erably richer In vitamin C than those grown In the shade. To­ matoes produced outdoors have more 0 than those from green­ houses. Tomatoes gathered from the garden alter a sunny spell will offer more vitamin C to family means than those ripen­ ed during dark weather. Tests by scientists at state experi­ ment stations show that the In­ tensity of light on the plant during the growth Is of more Importance In Increasing this vitamin than any other factor yet discovered. Sunshine alone, however, is not enough. lUndemourl^ed, thirsty plants, suffering from loss of foliage, are likely to pro­ duce poor - quality, sun - burn­ ed fruits. Plants that are un­ evenly watered or have too much moisture at one time and drought at another are also poor In quality, even In sunny locations. Sunshine can add C value only If other conditions are favorable for the plant, nu­ tritionists say. Peaches are plentiful In all parts of the country. Commer­ cially canned fruits will be short ttils year and point values prob­ ably high. Peaches offer fair amounts of vitamin C and and. In addition, yellow peaches of­ fer vitamin A. Because they are naturally sweet, peaches need little sugar when canned. The development of new mar­ kets to hedge against the time when surpluses of farm prod* ucts may occur, is a "must” for the Immediate future of agri­ culture. z A custard sauce, served at room temperature, tastes sweet­ er than the same sauce made Into frozen custard.

On The Home Front WPB LIFITS CONTROLS In a series of sweeping moves to facilitate the recon­ version of Industry and speed the flow of a wide variety of peacetime product^ into the hands of consumers, while still avoiding price inflation, preemption of scarce supplies, or a buyers’ scramble, the War Production Board has drop­ ped 210 more individual controls over industry, J. A. Krug, WPB Chairman, says. Limitations on the number of radios, refrigerators and trucks that could be manufactured for civilian use were removed. Restrictions on a long list of other products were lifted and the materials freed for consumer goods. Affected are metal furniture, domestic stoves and laimdry equip­ ment, electric fans, motorcycles, storage batteries, photo­ graphic fihn, shipping containers, oil-buming equipment, silk and cotton duck, as well as a large number of other products. HOUSEHOLD GOODS Household washing machines, ironers and aluminum kitchenware will be back In the stores this fall at 1942 prices, according to Price Administrator Chester Bowles. Manu­ facturers will be required to tag the pots, pans, skillets, washing machines and Ironers with their retail ceiling prices, Mr. Bowles says. Models will vary in style and price much as they did before the war. QUOTA PERIOD CHANGED The date of the beginning of quota periods during which Class 2 slaughterers may slaughter 100 per cent of their quota' bases for cattle has been changed to quota pe­ riods ixginning on or after July 20, 1945, OPA says.

URGED TO GO TO SCHOOL Teen age boys and girls who have had wartime or sum­ mer jobs are urged to go back to school by leading officials of the Department of Agriculture. M. L. Wilson, Director of Extension Work, says: “In preparation for the worl of tomorrow, no boy or girl can af- for to sacrifice the educational opportunities which com­ pletion of his or her high school education offers. World War II has proved that it is relatively easy to acquire'practical training for a specific job. But to enjoy greatest happiness, and in order to take an intelligent and active part as a citizen in a free democracy, every boy and girl should con­ sider the completion of a high school education as the min­ imum educational goa'l.*^ H. H. Hockbaum, Chief, Division of Field Coordination, Extension Service, points out: “Boys' and Girls’ 4-H Club work does not stop with training in solving agrlcultiu'e and homemaking problems. It always accents the development of well-rounded boys and girls. It stimulates all to improve their education. Many thousands of 4-H boys and girls who have finished high school and gone on to college will testi­ fy as to the Importance of pursuing high school studies through to completion. Now more than ever before, every 4-H member needs to acquire the best possible educational foundation in order to meet new situations and opportuni­ ties that will come with the peace. This means a full high school education as a minimum. It is hoped that every 4-H member will set this as his goal.” NEW RATION STAMPS Five more re stamps in War Ration Book Four will be good for the purchase of rationed meats, fats, fish and dairy products on Saturday, September 1, OPA announced. The new stamps are Ll, Ml, N1, PI, and Ql. They are being validated for the usual four months’ period—in this in­ stance, September 1 through December 31. Five more red stamps in War Ration Book Four will be good September 1, and will remain valid for the purchase of five pounds of sugar through December 31. WOOD FOR FUEL Increased production, distribution and use of wood as fuel for residential heating is suggested by the Consumer Fuels Division of WPB's Office of Civilian Requirements as one way to relieve the nation’s critical fuel shortages this winter. OCR officials emphasize the immediate need for cutting fuel wood, especially hardwoods, to pemlt drying for 60 to 90 days before use. The importance of wood as a fuel is emphasized by the fact that the heat generated from one cord of hardwood (a pile 8 feet long, 4 feet high and 4 feet wide) is alniost equivalent to that produced by a ton of coal, WPB says. Farmers who earn partial livelihoods from wood crops, and workers release from war plants because of military cutbacks, are urged by OCR to make more fuel wood avail­ able to homes in their rural districts and to the urban areas in the vicinity.

Two Recipes Given For Making Soap Making soap at home is be­ coming a necessity in these soap shortage days. Extension spe­ cialists in home economics at State College present two stand­ ard recipes for uncooked and cooked soap. Six pounds of fat with 2 1-2 pints of cold water, and 1 can of lye will make about 9 pounds of soap. Six pounds of fat is equal to 13 1-2 standard meas­ uring cups of liquid fat. Pour water into a small enam­ el, stone, or glass container. Dissolvfe the lye in the water, stirring with a wooden spoon or paddle until dissolved. Mix in a well ventilated room but not In a breeze. Let the lye water cool until the container feels cool to the hand. Melt the fat in an enameled pan and stir with an enameled spoon or a wooden paddle. Cool the fat to the correct temperature through­ out the pan. Cool the fat until the spoon begins to leave a track In the mixture. Pour the lye solution into the fat In a small, steady stream, stirring slowly in one direction. Continue stirring un­ til the mixture is a honey-like texture. Let it stand for 10 to IS minutés until the mixture becomes thick like salad dress­ ing and then pour into molds or wooden boxes, lined with waxed paper. After 24 hours it is ready to cut. Cure soap for several weeks before using and never let It freeze. The formula for cooked soap is 2 quarts ot melted fat, 1 can of lye, 1 cup of liquid ammonia, 1 quart of water, and 1 tablespoon­ ful of borax dissolved in one- half cup of hot water. Dissolve the lye in water and let stand until lukewarm. Add slowly to the fat, stirring constantly un­ til Jelly like. Cook slowly. Add borax watër and mix thorough­ ly. Remove from Are, add am­ monia, and stir until about the consistency of thick honey. Pour into molds and cure for 6 weeks, COLORED NEWS ..By MARGARET WOODRUFF Miss Johnsle Foster of Win­ ston-Salem is visiting .'Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Foster.

Staite College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT N. C. state College Can plenty of tomatoes. With civilian supplies of commercially canned tomatoes and tomato Juice predicted to be much less than last winter, wjse home­ makers will can every garden tdmato that does not go on the family table. Rich in vitamin C, tomatoes are easiest of all vegetables to can and the only common gar­ den vegetable that does not re­ quire a pressure canner. Can tomatoes by the boiling water bath method, advise food conservation specialists. Here are Important points to remem­ ber in tomato canning; Look over every tomato, and useonly the ripe, firm and per­ fect.’Even when a bad spot is cut out, bacteria may lurk be­ hind to ruin the whole batch. Get ready only enough to­ matoes for one canner load at a time. Handle them gently so they will not bruise. Wash in several waters' to remove sand and grhne. To make peeling, easy, put to­ matoes in a wire basket or thin cloth, dip into boiling water a minute, then plunge in to cold water. Cut out stem ends and peel. Quarter or halve the to­ matoes so they will heat through quickly. Heat tomatoes in their own juice, stirring to prevent stick­ ing and burning. Let them come to a rolling boll. In the mean­ time, get clean pars and lids heated and ready. Fill one jar at a time wlthliot tomatoes. Cover with hot juice to within one-halt inche of top. Work rapidly, so tomatoes will not cool. Add one teaspoon salt to each quart. Work out air bub­ bles by easing a knife blade down Jar sides. Add morejulce It needed. Wipe jar rim with a clean damp cloth. Process IB BIXBY Pvt.

T ifi ЛЛ / the W BURTON WILLIAMS Beplacinflr Rotted Sills |?0R nenily 15 years, since the » start of the depression and through the war years, many farm buildings have suffered greater than normal deterioration because needed repairs have not been made.Unless these repairs are made now, buildings which could be mado eorviceable for many years will become useless. Farm buildings de­teriorate because foundations fall and damage other parts of the structure, because sills, joists and studs rot from backsplashing of roof drainage, because walls shift outr of place when sills are not anchorea to foundations and be­cause of a lack of proper bracing for wind and dead loads. In most cases lerloui damage CnilCBl «uvreu ■luaiexample, can be repaired by re­moving the decayed portion and splicing in new lumber. To prevent iuture damage, gutters should be Initallid to carry drainage water •way. This alio helps to protect the foundation, •Farm buildings can be protected from drainage and storms by cov­ering them with asbestos cement board or siding materials which will noi deca> and^are termite proof and flreproof, Thm nateri- als an BOB'eritieal.

Among the Duke Power Company’s 90,000 rural custo-' mars, many have made profitable use of electricity on the farm for 25 years. The Piedmont area, Ideally endowed for diversified farm­ ing, is ready for new agricultural enterprises. Cold storage and processing plants, dairy establishments, and abat­ toirs will moke profitable the production of more foods to use at home and more to rnarket elsewhere. Your utilities company has faith in the farm future of the , Piedmont Carolinas, and plans to forward it. A program ,of expansion is already underway, requiring the invest­ ment of more than a million dollars for rural transmission lines alone. these new lines will make life on hundreds of additional Piedmont forms more convenient, more productive, and MORE PROFITABLE.
