These folks have around five mlles of terraces they have built with farm equip ment. They apparently like ter racing. Krnest Lagle near County Line has an unusual stand and growth of pasture grasses he sewed this fall. He will control erosion and produce some cheap feed on this plot of ground. L. R. Towell, Mr. Lagle’s neigh bor, also did some fertilizing and supplementary seeding on a partial sod on about four acres. Mr. Towell had developed an un usual stand of white dutch clo ver and some blue grass before this fall by applying lime and phosphate. W. R. Mundy and son, Floyd, had nearly twelve thousand feet of terraces built this fall. They had not planned to do quite so much until they found out how well they liked the ter races built before the rainstorm In September. Then, they decid ed to do more. “Win Against Water—Protect Every Acre.” It’s a' short cotton crop for North Carolina.

Publisher SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $2.00 Per Year Inside of Davie County—$2.50 Per Year Outside of Davie County. Strictly Payable in Advance. Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1£!79. , North C nruiina ^ N E S S ASSOCIAT We Should Help Germany To Remember An English bishop receives a letter from a Oerman bishop In which he complains of the harsh treatment now being given to the Germans. He cries for the Christian apirit of forgiveness. Most certainly, we do not want to treat Oermany with the same hard treatment Oermany meted out to those whom she conquered, but there can never be a new Germany, and one entitled to Christian treatment until Oermany shows some signs of repentence. Such demands as made by the German bishop jreveal, not onlyy the spirit of repentence which deserves forgive ness, but'the same old arrogance of the Germans who could commit all of the crimes In the catalogue against others, and it would be right. To them it became wrong only when done to a German. As the reporter who gave the story said of It; "We have not received a copy of Bishop Bell’s answer to the German divine but we think he might well send him a few pictures of concentration camps and murder factories with the suggestion that he and the other “Innocent women and children In ghastly misery” mediate a while longer on the crimes their nation com mitted.” The High Cost Of Stubbornness We are aware of the high cost of war. Succeeding generations will also share in it. We know that, of course, when we enter into war, but when we feel there is no other course we chopse it with full knowledge of what is involved. These days of peace are also being costly because we choose to make them so. The deadlocks between labor and management are costing the nation a huge sum of money, and a lack of goods which deprives many of comforts and conveniences. If the failure to produce continues for a long period the economic loss will be appalling, and himian suffering will naturally follow. If capital secures no re turns on investments, and labor receives no wages, not only will those two groups suffer, but the rest of the gen eral public will suffer along with them. Prolonged failure •to produce will cause suffering and misery which are quite imcaUed for. It will be the price which we pay for a com petitive system which we have all accepted as a basis for conducting business. The cost will fall little short of war expenditures. The general public, with only the conflicting state ments of the contending groups, find it difficult to place the blame, and can only conclude that it can be charged up to the general stubbornness of a lot of human brings who so far in their progress towards a great goal have fail ed as yet to sprout any wings. The only thing definite hi sight is that the fight is on, and it will, perhaps, be a fight to the finish. But It Is going to be a costly war. We very much fear that a good many people are not only going to lose face, but find them selves without anything to feed that part of It which leads to the stomach. Lybrook Barn Catches Fire A barn-lolt lull of lespedeza hay In the horse barn o{ the D. J. Lybrook farm at Advance was destroyed by flre of unde termined origin last Thursday.

VOLUME XXVin “AU The County News For Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1945 "A« The County News For Everybody”NO. 40 HUNTERS TELL TALL TALES OF SHOOTING DEER, B'AR DOWN EAST Dr. a. V. Oreene and Clegg Clement of Mocksville seem to have iound the hunter’s para dise down east. After much per suasion they have revealed that they go to Castle Hayne near Wilmington In Pender county, a hunting ground owned by friends of Dr. Oreene, where he has been going for 26 years. On November 5 they Journeyed down and came back, they said with a straight face, and there was nary a witness to contradict these otherwlse-perfectly-honest gentlemen, with two deer and two bear. One deer had 6 points, the other 8 points and each of the bear (or bears) weighed not a pound less than 300. On a recent trip they bagged three deer, no bear being men tioned by the Daniel Boones. One deer had 9 points, another 8, but the third, they Anally confessed, had only two points. Dr. Oreene spoke Joyously of the outdoor life, fltten to kill the average man—to hear him tell It. They slept with their clothes on In a pile of straw in a house with pine lighter knots In a fire place for heat. The cook, who haa been accompanying Dr. Oreene for years—he comes from Davidson — arose somewhere around 3 a.m., had breakfast ready by 4 o’clock. On the first trip they killed a rattler with 14 rattles. On the last trip they lost the dogs In a ralnsorm. The above facts are not sworn to be true. They come only as the fulsome report of those who have been there—and come back to sit around the drug store and tell tall tales of their feats to make the listeners envious. Oh, yes, Doc Greene brought back a couple bushels of oysters In the shell—Just enough for a nice roast for two or three. Scoutmasters Attend Meet Bryan Sell, C. T. Barber and C, L.

FOUND NOT МЮ SUIT HERE In a case which took three days to try, a superior court Jury here last week exonerated Sher iff L. S. Bowden of any negli gence when he was also serving as Jailor in 1942. The suit was brought by Jamea T, McDaniel for $25,000 damages and three times whatever award the jury might give him. After the Jury had brought in its ver dict, Judge W. H. ^Bobbltt ot Charlotte rendered a decision in one issue that the case was bar red because of a year’s statute of limitations in bringing the suit. Accordingly, even if a Jury had found the sheriff guilty ot negUgence and awarded Mr. Mc Daniel some damages, It appears tliak the judge would have thrown out the case. During the course of the trial the Judge stated it was questionable whether the case should be al lowed to go to the jury but after studying the matter overnight he decided to do so. The suit was the result of the arrest of Mr. McDaniel on Feb. 21, 1942, in Cooleemee on a charge of being Intoxicated. He was brought here and placed in the county jail. In the Jail at the time was one white man and three colored men. It was charged the sheriff did not seg regate the white and colored prisoners as required by law and that Us a result one of the col ored men, Clifford Connor, hit McDaniel over the head with an Iron pipe or some other instru ment, knocking him uncon-, scious; that he was taken ta the hospital, where he stayed two or three days and that he suffered subsequen't Injury from the blow. • ■ ' The defense claimed that Connor, by his request, was al lowed by the sheriff to sweep up and do work around the jail; that several hours after McDan iel had been placed in JaU the latter came into a room where Connor was shaving and wanted to borrow a razor blade. Connor refused and was vUlfied by Mc Daniel, It was claimed, and as a result Connor hit McDaniel with his fist and pushed him from the rom, McDaniel falling on the cement floor outside the room; that the sheriff took him to the hospital. The plaintiff, through coun sel, J. M. Waggoner of Salisbury, gave notice of appeal to the su preme court. The sheriff and the sheriff’s bonding company were represented by A. T. Grant. Members of the Jury’whlch-'de- clded the issues were H. C. Jones, W. S, Howell, Paul Jones, Harold C, Gregory, Lewis Miller, H. R. Eaton, Paul Blackwelder, G. H. Motley, Robert Cook, D. G. Grubbs, C. E. Vogler and Reid Hauser. ' Two insurance cases in which Annie R.

A part of the duties of ilremen l8 to instruct people on how to avoid fires. We have Just ended a great conflagration caused by the hatreds and misunderstanding of peoples and nations. For many years peoples and nations were kindling little fires which finally climaxed in a world-wide war. We are now trying to learn how to prevent wars In the. future— at least, we are hoping and saying that we do not want any more war. Yet, strangely, we are kindling and feeding those lit tle fires which are always bound, sooner or later, to end in a great conflict. We are arraying ourselves against each other. In our own land we have divers groups engaged In serious and disastrous conflict; we have people in almost every nation endeavoring to stir up their people against other nations. Foremost among such groups we have some here in the United States trying in every way to build up sulplcion and hatred against Russia; we even have people who are trying .to build ui> a feeling against our closest ally, England. \ Aside from other considerations, our common sense should tell us that we are creating the spirit and the con ditions out of which war is born. We (.can’t go on with hate and expect the reign of love. The people who incite others to racial hatred, to class hatred, or to any kind of hatred are a constant mcnacc to the peace of the world. Why blame politicians, why “cuss” the government, when we the people are creating the spirit out of which war is born?

C.) ENTERPRISE PAGET FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Q. What about sprinkling DDT ■over corn as It Is put In the crib to kill the weevils? A, Dr. B. B. Fulton, research entomologist of the Agricultural Experiment Station, says that he ■cannot recommend this practice. Preliminary results with a small application of 3 per cent DDT dust Indicate that the health of animals may not be seriously affected. With fairly large doses the animals lost their appetite. Dr. Fulton says he is not sura that the DDT will kill all the weevils because the pests start In the field and are carried into storage, where they feed in the larval stage inside of the grains of corn or inside the husk, where they do not come in contact with the DDT, COLORED NEWS By MARGARET WOODRUFF Q.

Ç. Farm Program Close to War Levels Is Urged Washington. — A 1946 farm program calling for near war time levels of food and farm commodity production to meet an "almost unlimited need" has been recommended to Congress by Secretary of Agriculture An derson. The , program suggested a slight Increase in the over-all crop acreage, but some reduc tion in the total quantity of live stock products. "The end of the war,” Mr. An derson said in a statement, "has not brought an end to the al most unlimited need for Amer ican food." He suggested an over-all crop goal of 356,244,000 acres com pared with this year’s indicated planting of 350,588,000. The secretary said the goals. If met, would provide civilians with more food than they had during the war, as well as fur nish supplies for the Armed Services and for export, includ ing aid to war-devastated areas. The announcement did not give prices at which the govern ment will support markets. This phase of the program will be announced later, ofClclals said. The program will be submit ted to representatives of the de partment in the states and coun ties, including local farmer com mittees, and to farm organiza tions, for suggested revisions. Final goals will be announced about the first of the year. In the case of crops, these per centage reductions from 1945 acreages were recommended: rice 7c, dried peas 10, soy beans for beans 10, peanuts 20, pota toes 5, truck crops for fresh mar kets 1, truck crops for process ing 4, and burley tobacco 10. The recommended livestock production goals call for the fol lowing percentage reductions from 1945 production: milk, 2 per cent, hens and pullets on farms on Jan. 1, 13, eggs 15, chickens raised next year 17, turkeys 10, cattle and calves on farms at the end of next year 2, beef cattle on farms at the end of next year 3. A 1 per cent Increase In the 1946 spring hay crop was sug gested, while no change was rec ommended in the number of sheep and lambs on farms at the end of next year from the num-? ber on farms at the end of this year. The longer a Victory Bond is held the greater, ia its earning power. State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT N. C. State College Slicing bacon by hand, espe cially when the cut is largely fat, has always been an unwieldy, difficult Job, even with the sharpest knife. Meat specialists ot the U. S. Department ot Agri culture suggest hardening the slab before slicing, by storing it in the freezing compartment of the refrigerator. When .chilled until firm, bacon is easily cut into thin, even slices. В Ш THESE WAMT APJ a. for what YOB WAMT FOR SALE—Good horse. P. D.

Wallace 5 St 10c Store. 12-14-ltp Before discarding a wool skirt that. has begun to look worn and shabby, consider the possi bility of giving it a new lease on life by turning it inside out. Wool goods and garments atlll are scarce, so every effort should be made to get full wear from the clothes on hand. Often the faded color, apots, and wear that make a aklrt look worn are only surface deep. If the underside looks new and if the fabrlo,whea held up to the light, showa no algn of wearing thin, the skirt is probably worth reversing. A skillful darn is the disguise for small holea, anaga, or worn places in wool clothes. Some of the. important little secrets of successful darning яге: (1) Use a fine needle and short thread. Long thread pulled back and forth across a tear or hole tends to stretch the darn out of shape. (2) Use thread that blends with the material-preferably ravel- Ings from the same cloth, or dull-finlsh thread of a matching but slightly darker shade. Thread usually works up lighter than It appears on the spool. (3) Darn on the right side, but ateam- press the finished darn on the wrong side, then brush the right side to lift the nap. Cull pullets can probably be sold at better prices now than later, says C. F. Parrish, in charge of extension poultry at State college. ief At Last For Your Cough Oreomulsion relieves promptly because it gots right to the seat of the trouble to help loosen and expel Berm laden phlegm, and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender, iU' trouble to help loosen and expel bronchial mucous mem .„.es.Tell your drugBlst to sell you a bottle of CreomulElon with the understanding you must like the way it quickly allays the cough or you are to have your money back, C R E O M U L S IO Nfor^Coushi, Cheit Coldi, Broncliltis WALKER FUNERAL HOME Funeral Services—Ambulance Service Phone 5711 Phone 48 Cooleemee, N.

CASH The Interest of all ot the people Is more Important than that of any group and the Mocksville Rotary club was con> gratulated as being an organ ization through which local cit izens could function for com munity betterment as one Indi vidual, by T. M. Cash, superin tendent of Forsyth county schools, at the Tuesday meeting of the club. Mr. Cash, a native of Davie county, reviewed the growth ot Mocksville and the county. He harked back to the time when the town first secured lights and he heartily endorsed the approv al of the forthcoming bond election to provide more water for the town. "Any man who goes to the polls for adequate water for the use of everybody, even though he may have sufficient for himself. Is a good citizen,” the speaker said. Speaking with much humor and sparkling wit, Mr. Cash also referred to the old story that Samuel Spencer once came to Mocksville and wanted to place here the Southern railway shops now at Spencer. “He did not do so, I understand, because he did not find a community that was united for progress,” Mr. Cash said. "The community Interest as a whole must be united for progress and overcome the petty bickerings of groups, even though the various groups are striving for good." The rorsyth educator referred ,to the Increase in purebred cat tle In the county and then pointedly philosophized on the maintenance of purebred, pro gressive parents to provide chil dren, which are coming along with the historical Increase of the birthrate during wartimes, with good schools and other ad vantages. In contrasting the Interest of groups with that ot the com munity as a whole, Mr. Cash told the following humorous story: “Ari elderly man of 70 married a sprightly, attractive woman of 30. He was wealthy and moved to the town where the bride lived. “Immediately the real estate agents began looking for some site for him to live and they called on the gentleman. “ 'Where would you Uke to live in the community?’ asked one of the agents. “ 'If you would like to be near the Baptists, we can get you a home on Riverside Drive. “ ‘If you prefer a locality near the Jewish people, we can set tle you near the First National bank. '“ If you like to have Catho lics as neighbors, there Is a very desirable place near the city hall. “ ‘Should you choose the Pres byterian section, there Is an ex cellent location near the Ice plant. ‘"O r If you like the Method ists, a site Is available close to the gas plant.’ "The gentleman listened quiet ly until the salesmfin bad fin ished and remarked " ‘Young man, 1 came here to settle down. I want a place near a good public school’.” Nlc Mando was In charge of the program and presented Mr. Cash. Paul Blackwelder had Dr, Robert King, new pastor of the Presbyterian church here, as a guest; Orady Ward had Jim Uz- zell, new scout executive of this district; Dave Rankin had Dr. W. M. Long, who was recently released from service. Bill Pennington, presiding In the absence ot President Kim Sheek, asked members' of the club to seriously consider the bond election here next Tuesday and' aid In getting out a large vote. Rev. H. C. Sprinkle said the matter was highly Important and that the additional water was greatly needed for the town. The W.SX3.8. of the Methodist church served the meal, consist ing of baked chicken, dressing, glblet gravy, string beans, cran berry sauce, yams, hot rolls, ba nana custard with whipped cream and coffee. The president of the club, Mr. Sheek, presented In absentia a Rotary scroll consisting of the four tests of a good Rotarían, and the secretary, Jeff Caudell, gave each member a 1046 desk- size Rotary calendar. The club meets next Tuesday at the regular time and next Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. the Christmas party will be held in the Sanford hall. No meal will be served at the Friday meeting.

VOLUME XXVIII “AM The County News For Everybody” MOCKSVILLE, N. C., FRIDAY DECEMBER 21,1945 “AH The County News For Everybody”NO. 41 UNION REPLIES TO ERWIN MILLS Durham, Dec. 14,—Following a etatement ol the Erwin Cotton mills that It regretted negotia tions had been broken off be- ■wcen the management and etrlkers, and that Erwin mills paid as high wages as any In the south, a union official Issued a statement calling that a mls- reipresentatlon ol the lacts. H. D. Llsk, assistant state di rector of ТМША-СЮ, declared, "To me the company’s remarks are a complete misrepresenta tion of the facts, but, if Its ex pressed regrets over cessation of negotiations are to be taken se riously, I for one am glad to hear It. For if true, it is to my knowledge the first Interest In settling the dispute the mill of- Aclals have shown. “Up until now It has been only too apparent that they did not appear to care whether prog ress looking toward settlement of the strike wa;s made or not. Yesterday the company affirmed that ‘they had from the begin ning offered the highest cotton mill wages It knows of in the South and under the fairest ot working conditions, no different as to workloads from those pre vailing in well operated plants throughout the South.’ "This statement from the company conforms with their actions wlhlch have been de signed to cover up the circum stances which caused the strike. Jt Is not strange to the union that the company should say this, since they have from the first refused to air the issues causing the strike before an Im partial arbitrator or a govern mental comml^ion. As to the fairness of the company wage offer, it actually proposed wage reductions which in some cases amounted to as much as 25 cents per hour. As for the workloads Involved, the company’s proposal was designed to give more work to employees where impartial arbitrators had already awarded relaxation In the present work assignments. "Yes, negotiations have ceased, and the reason Is that the Erwin management was quibbling over pennies while making millions of dollars in rpoflts. The Nation al War Labor board in Its di rective Order of February 20, 1945, In the 23 Southern c«ton mills cases, of which the Erwin company was one, awarded a ten cents an hour increase. This was in two parts, flve cents to be applied across the board to the present wage scales and the other flve cents to be distributed over the wage scale through ne gotiations between the parties. This was to be done in a manner which would balance the wage scale. The Erwin company gave the flrst flve cent increase, and then proceeded to destroy this gain when negotiations were be gun between the union and the company. This was done by proposing wage rates and in creased workloads that in most cases completely wiped out tlie entire increase. "If the Erwin company is seri ously Interested in concerning themselves over the fact that negotiations have been broken .off, thsy alone know that this is due to their refusal to grant concessions that other Southern (Continued on pace 8) Statement From The Erwin Cotton Mills Co. The following statement, dated December 12, was received from the Erwin Cotton Mills Com pany In Durham: Negotiations between the Er win Mills and the Textile Work ers Union of America, CIO, broke down on Monday night. Those negotiations had been proceeded by weeks of negotiations with four Federal Conciliators and one State Conciliator in attendance. The Erwin Mills at Durham, Erwin, and Cooleemee are in volved with approximately 5,000" employees in a strike which is now in its tenth week. Mill officials state: , "The Erwin Mills regret that three weeks of further negotia tions brought no agreement. The Company has from the begin ning offered the highest cotton mill wages it knows of in the South and under the fairest ot working conditions,'no different as to work loads from those pre vailing in well operated mills throughout the South and hi the mills of our principal competitors in this territory. The Company had hoped for fair consideration of these facts.” GIRL SCOUTS GET AWARDS The (Mocksville girl scout troop held its investiture service last Monday evening and pre sented pins to Billy Carol Angell, Bobby Jean Angell, Nan Bowden, Jane Click, Peggy Daniel, Nancy Latham, Doorthy Shore, Ger maine Wellman, Canncn Greene, Billie Jean Harmon, Mary Sue Rankin and Frankie Junker.

Dr. J. E. Pritchard told local Rota rlans at their Tuesday meeting they could help to arouse public opinion for careful driving, as well as themselves faithfully obey traffic laws. "For the 10 months of this, year, in this state there were 027 killed and 3,313 Injured in automobile accidents,” th e speaker asserted. Causes of accidents were traced by Dr. Pritchard to speeding, failure to observe stop signs, careless driving on the highway especially around curves and “hogging” of the highway by those who fall to give the other driver his share of the road. . Many youths who have nor mally long lives are killed, many injured for life, overcrowded hospitals are burdened with pa tients including some who can not pay because of accidents which might have been avoided, Dr. Pritchard declared.

One Wednesday afternoon three stacks of mead ow hay belonging to Kimbrough Sheek behind his home were burned. It is thought the Are must have started from some hunter or passerby’s match or cigarette. Or, as says Mr. Sheek. it could have been from some rabbit whose hind foot hit a rock and touched off a spark. On Friday morning the home of John Smoot, colored, caught flre from a chimney, it Is thought. Some of the contents were saved. PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

Mr. Smoot was Impressed with the enthusiasm these men have In promoting soil conser vation work. He was also Im pressed with the progress being made In 83 counties in soil con- Bervatlon work. Mr. Smoot Is actively lighting erosion on his own farms and realizes bhe seriousness of losing soil yearly on the Individual farms. He will make another good supervisor as J. G. Craw ford has. Wallace Green near the Coun ty Home did some more terrac ing this fall and has done a. splendid job of contour drilling grain with his terraces. Three years ago Mr. Green was rather skeptical about doing much ter racing, but after he had some experience he Is highly pleased with this practice. He makes it a practice to turn under legumes, too. which Is a necessary part of good farming, as soil without humus Is only a weak mineral and not very productive. W. M. Cartner, near Davle Academy has about one acre of. Improved pasture grasses and clovers he sowed last year. He put a yearling on It this year without any other feed.

Kerih CAroIino PRESS ASSOClATf V©, PAGEANT IN BETHLEHEM There was nothing spectacular, nothing new about their entrance into Bethlehem—Mary on a donkey, Joseph on foot, the halter in his hand. No one noticed; no one cared. They were poor, ordinary, lowly Nazarenes, com mon peasants come to sign the census-rolls, foot-sore and weary, typical of otliers who had come for days in steady streams to the city they called their own. Bethlehem, tiny village, lay prostrate on a Judean hill. Swollen with strang ers, aching with activity, moaning aloud in drunken music and lustful laughter— this was the village through which Mary and Joseph picked their way, searching for a room. From inn to inn they went in desperation . . . but always there was no room, not a single bed, even for Mary, heavy With child. At last, alone in the quiet outskirts, they chanced upon a rude shed built for cows, and there beneath the breath of beasts Mary brought forth her son, wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, be cause there was no room for them in the inn. Somehow nature went wild that night, the world turned topsy-turvy—all Creation shook for joy and bowed toward the stable. Angels appeared to shepherds on the hillside and sang the news that He had come. He of whom the prophets spoke, for whom the world had waited. A giant star fell from its orbit and traced a route across the midnight sky. Wise me nsaw the star and set out on camels To adore. Nature rejoiced and laughted for joy for He had come, this Child of Mary, on Christmas Day— He, the Christ, the Saviour of the world. Aged prophets, centuries before, had told about His coming—holy men with bushy beards, on speaking terms with God. For God had told them Adam’s crime would one day be reversed; that He would send His only Son to ransom Adam’s children. God had promised, and now His Word was Flesh; Christ liad come to save the world from sin. Strange birthplace for so great a birth—a stable filled With cowsi Strange place to cuddle at Mary’s breast, to ieel the touch of gentle hands ,to listen to her lullabiesi Strange birtliday for the Son of God! But that is what He chose—a strange beginning for a strange career. For tliirty years He would live unknown, as Joseph’s son in Nazareth, earning His bread with labor and sweat, a lowly Nazarene. And then one day He would leave His home and foot His way through Palestine, raising the dead, curing the sick, giving sight to the blind, his heart on flre to do the work for which He had come. People would follow Him, praise His name, on Sunday try to make Him King, and on Friday nail Him to a cross. Strange career for the Son of God, nestled now in Mary’s arms. Strange, Indeed, that this little Child should come to earth that all men might be saved. Wondrous, that this Child who suckles should be the God who made us. Strai?ge, but true. And breathless, we adore! TIME FOR SOBER THINKING As part of the confused order comes the strikes which have reached such proportion as to threaten our whole social and economic system. For a long time, capitalistic practices so offended the general mass of people that they sympathized with labor in its iight.for larger opportunities. The gains of the past twenty-five years could not have been secured without this public sympathy. Conditions are now in reverse, and the gains of labor are threatened by their own actions. With no production, no wages, and no profits, there is bound to be such economic loss as to affect everybody. The mass of people is fast realizing that it is the general public which will suffer most, and they are demanding of their government that legislation be enacted which will curb excesses and bring order to the country. That is the primary function of government, and unless government acts swiftly it may find itself at the mercy of disrupting and disorderly forces. Labor has not shown that it has the sense of responsibility which goes with power, and tlie public is recognizing the danger of power witliout a sense of responsibility, The gains.of labor in that past have been welcomed, even by management itself, because they were recognized as contributions to th general prosperity.: But the present attitude of labor puzzles and angers the public, whose in terests, after all, are paramount. Let us hope that both groups will be willing to cast aside some of their pi'ejudices, and consider all of society instead of their particular demands, WOODLEAF NEWS Lt. and Mrs. Leo Morgan are spending the holidays here with Mr, and Mrs, S.

Mail Going To Aleutians Lost The war department has re ported the loss during a violent storm oi the bulk of the over seas Christmas mall destined for the Aleutian areh. This mall, which was being transshipped by small surface craft nt the time of its loss at sea, originated in the United States during the Christmas mailing period, September 15 to October 15, when no request was required from the soldier. In order to permit the send ing at once of Christmas parcels to army personnel through APO V29, postmasters may accept one parcel from any Individual for mailing to persons receiving mail through this particular APO without the usual request requirement if the parcel is pre sented for mailing not later than December 20.

C. Cotton Cord Tires Greatly Improved Automobile tires of cotton cord that run 70,000 miles at high speed and greatly improved truck tires have been developed under the stress of war. The Improved cotton cord used in making these tires gave out standing performance and was much better than standard cord. The first of the experimental tires were made with 90 percent synthetic rubber and 10 percent natural rubber. Director 1. O. Schaub says that he expects an improvement in cotton production in North Car olina in 1946. He urges farmers to follow the seven-point cotton program next year, produce cot ton of better grades and quality, and reduce production costs. As to present and prospective supplies, experts predict a sharp decline in carry-over in 1946 and a substantial increase in cotton consumption in foreign coun tries. Some reduction of world carry-over Is likely by August 1, 1946. The competition between cot ton and rayon continues to be keen. Rayon cord gave slightly better performance than the im proved cotton cord in the tires, but this was attributed mainly to a difference In the type of cord construction used, as no fabric failures occurred in any of the tires made with the im proved cotton cord, U. S, reports say. Bemedaled Sergeant Prizes General’s Coat Honolulu—Technical Sergeant George Buta, of Honolulu, has a Purple Heart, Silver Star, Bronze star and campaign ribbons.

Mr. Usk continued: “The Er win company has ‘done its bit’ for the cause of raising textile prices by adding to,the already great scarcity of clothing. Only now, as the first ol the year ap- IMioaches, when excess profits taxes are to be eliminated, do they begin to show ‘remorse’ for their position. Having made eleven cents more on each wage dollar last year than did Gen eral Motors corporation, they ore atiU dissatisfied. They still want to 1)oth eat and keep their cake. Hiey are determined to get Mgiher prices, greater profits, and stlil pay lower wages than previously. This is a position which is untenable before an honest appraisal of the facts. "If the company Is as sure as they try to have the public be lieve that the wages they ofler and the workload proposed by them Is 'so honest and fair, then the Union cannot understand why the company is unwilling to tion.

Smoot, seaman, second class, Mocksville, N, C., is getting ready to rejoin the ranks of civilians, together with thousands of others going through this Naval demobiliza tion center headed for the States. At this staging center, the prospective dischargees are grouped according to what sep aration center they will report to for their final papers. They are placed aboard ships headed for the States as soon as ship ping space is available, are concerned over supplies of wilt resistant cotton seed ior planting in ’46. The quality of the seed in the area Is very low this season. Crop Disease Loss Is Many Millions Losses from diseases on the major farm and truck crops of North Carolina run into many millions of dollars annually, and many of these losses can be prevented or reduced with a great saving to growers, says Howard R, Oarriss, Extension plant pathologist at State Col lege, He gives a good example of what may be done by citing the record of L. S, Dllday of Ahos- kle township in Hertford Coun ty, who dusted 5 acres of pea nuts with sulphur to control leaf spot diseases and left an other 5 acres undusted as a check in the same field. When yield records were tak en by Dllday, he found that the dusted peanuts had yielded an average of 2,142 pounds of nuts per acre as compared with 1,- 491 pounds for the undusted area, a gain of 651 pounds of nuts per acre. Oarriss believes In being con servative. In estimating what may be accomplished in dusting peanuts in North Carolina, he says that if half of the peanut acreage in the State were dust ed with sulphur to control leaf spot diseases and if the gains were only one-half as large as those obtained by Dllday, the result would be about 49 mil lion pounds of extra nuts, val ued at about 4 million dollars on the basis of October 15 prices. Oarriss says that County Agent J. W. Ballentine of Hert ford and other county agents of the State College Extension Ser vice In the peanut area have done an excellent job in calling the attention of growers to the need for fighting leaf spot di seases on peanuts and that their work on this one crop alone is saving their growers large a- mounts of money. Tests have shown that the cost of dusting can be paid lor by the increasjes in the yield and quality of the hay. Kerr, Bobby Watson ...................

C., FRIDAY DECEMBER 21,1945 ‘A« The County News For Everybody” ' . NO. 41 FARMERS TO PLAY VITAL ROLE IN LONG-RANGE SOIL PROGRAM Washington.—The Agriculture Department has adopted a "grass roots” approach to speed the reconversion of the nation’s farmland from wartime produc tion to long-range soll-bulldlng and water conservation. The 1948 program will give more responsibility to farmers, working through AAA county and community commiteemen, In recommending conservation practices. Under the plan outlined by W. E. Dodd, director of the Field Service branch of the Production and Marketing Administration, counties will be given allotments of funds to operate their con- «ervation programs. Past AAA programs have al lotted assistance principally on a state-wide basis. The 1046 pro gram will provide about the same amount of assistance as 1945’s. “We realize," Mr. Dodd said, "that the program will not be big enough to repair in one year the damage caused by heavy war time production. But to get as much accomplished as possible we are asking co-operating farmers to contribute a greater part of the cost of conservation practices than In former years." The 194« program will provide asaistance for these types of practices: (1) application of lime, fertilizer and other mate rials; • (2) planting of cover crops; (3) harvesting of legume and grass seed; (4) erosion con trol and water conservation; (5) range and pasture Improvement; (6) forestry; (7) other practices such as noxious weed control and clearing land for tillage and pasture. Under the 1945 program 3,- 600,000 to 4,000,000 farmers re ceived assistanoe on about 75 per cent of the nation’s crop land. Editorial Praises “Ike’s” Free Press Honolulu.—Stars and Stripes, Army newspaper, gave high edi torial praise to Gen. Dwight Ei senhower and Lieut. Gen. Robert C. Richardson, Jr., Hawaiian and mld-Paclflc commander, for permitting freedom of expres sion in Army newspapers. There were many generals and colonels In the European theatre who frequently proposed stricter control over the con tents of Army newspapers, the editorial said, but "General El senhower In every case rejected these proposals.’’ It continued: "Ho strongly upheld the free dom of the press . . . He in sisted the Stars and Stripes should have Its say on the be half of the servicemen." The Middle Pacific Stars and Stripes, published here, “has been free and outspoken," the editorial said, because Lieut. Gen. Richardson “permitted servicemen and the editors of tills paper to permit their intel ligence and honesty to deter mine the paper’s contents.” Negro farmers find that buy ing improved farm machinery on a cooperative basis Is es pecially suited for small farm ers.

Instructions For Cleaning Raw Wool Light, warm comforts may be made of wool for cold winter nights either by purchasing wool bats that are ready for quilting or by cleaning raw wool on the farm. Soft water Is neeed for wash ing the wool anti medium-hard water can be made soft by the use of 2 tablespoons of sal soda to each 5 gallons of water, says Pauline E. Gordon, extension specialist In home management and house furnishings at State college. She suggests that only the cleanest wool be used and only a small amount of wool be put Into the water at the time. “Do not stir the wool while In the water, because this causes the Wool to mat,” says Mlss Gordon. Before the wool Is put In the water, It should be picked apart nd shaken to remove all the loose dirt possible. “Dissolve enough neutral soap In the hot water to make a rich suds,” Is another suggestion from Mlss Gordon. “If 1 tablespoon of am monia nd 1 tablespoon of borax are added to each tubful of wa ter, this will help to dissolve the fat In the wool more quickly.” At least three suds and sev eral rinse waters will be needed to clean the wool. The flrst suds should be hot enough to be un comfortable to the hand. The last two suds should be cooler than the first, and the rinse wa ters should also be warm. Mlss Gordon suggests that the wool stand In the flrst suds about 20 minutes, and In the second and third suds for 10 minutes, and In the three rinse waters for 5 minutes each. The wool can be dried on wooden horses with the boards about 3 inches apart to give air circulation. Mother strawberry plants give much larger yields than June or September runners, tests of the Agrlcultural'Experlment Station show. Australians sometimes call tropical cyclones willy-nlllles, Four-H Club Girl Has Eye On Future Faye Lakey Is one of the many thousands of 4-H club girls In North Carolina who has an eye on the future and Is doing some thing about making those dreams for 1950, or thereabouts, come true. Faye Is thirteen years old and she Is determined to get a col lege education. Last year she en listed th ehelp of the county agent and he arranged for her to get a pure bred O.I.C. gilt in the pig club chain, sponsored by the Lions club. The sow brought 9 pigs in Sep tember. Two were returned to the chain and the other seven were sold at a proflt of $87.50. Faye also sold a cow and calf which she had raised and her college bank account began to grow. She has great hopes for further profits from her brood sow next year. This daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Lakey, who are demon stration farmers in the Tuskee- gee-Sawyer’s Creek Watershed of Grahm county, is also an ex cellent gardener even though she has been a member of the Stecoah 4-H club for only two years, says Louise Burnette, as sistant home agent of the State college extension service. Last ■ summer Faye planted, cultivated, sprayed, and har vested 20 different kinds of veg etables in her garden. She canned 260 quarts and stored them for the whiter. There will be a greater variety of foods on the family’s menu because, thanks to Faye, there are now 14 different kinds of vegetables on the pantry shelves. India to Set Up New Air Transport Board New Delhi, India.—An air transport licensing board is to be set up In India next year to co-ordinate development, pre vent uneconomic competition and ensure safety and conven ience In air transport, Sir Fred erick Tyninis, director general of civil aviation, states. Cotton yields In Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Iredell, Cleveland, and Rutherford counties are es pecially good this year, says Dan Holler of State College. IRAN REBELS IN TEHERAN PUSH IGNITING A NEW SPARK in the highly explosive Near East, armed members of the separatist Democratic Party, revolting against Iranian goverment authority in territory garrisoned by Soviet troops, are pushing along a rail line from Mlaneh, which they have taken to Teheran, capital and scene ot a famed Big-Three conference. Shaded area on map Indicates Iranian Azerbaijan, scene of Insurgent rebellion. Radiotelephones To Be “Aired” Soon Washington.—The government joined the radio Industry in pre dicting that the portable radio telephone will be a reality for civilians within the next year, at a cost of from $50 to $100. At least three manufacturers have announced plans to make available within three months sets of the type variously known by such names as “walkie- talkies” and "handie-talkies,” and others. The Federal Com munications Commission said that by that time it will have held hearings to establish stan dards and regulations. The F<JC and the commerce department say only minor stat utory wrinkles remain to be Ironed out before the hand ra diophone, permitting wireless communication up to a distance of five miles, becomes available to all. Channels already have been allocated between 460 and 470 megacycles. The commission’s Informal opinion now Is that each set and each user must be licensed. This will not be finally decided until after a pupllo hearing to con sider rules and regulations for the service. One of the chief reasons why adapted hybrid corns outyleld the open pollinated varieties Is that no barren stalks are found In the hybrid corn. 1946 Meat Supply Seen Equal to ’45 Washington.—Consumers can expect at least as much meat in 1946 as in 1945, but farmers may receive “moderate lower’^ re turns from sale of meat ani mals, the Agriculture Depart ment forecast. The meat supply in 1946, the Department said, is likely to balance demand at the 1945 level of wholesale and retail prices. This means, the department explained, that even If price ceil ings are removed, the general level of retail prices probably will be about the same as in 1945. The expected removal of sub sidy payments to slaughterers not later than June 30, 1946, may result In some decline in cattle and hog prices. The department predicted somewhhat greater pork produc- tlop. ' Smart Buck Ducks Guns In Barn Lot Harrisburg, 111.—Rural post man Bill Land su.spects deer In this vicinity are getting smarter.

Ralph Maresco takes a look at a iwr- tralt of the originals just be fore leaving his Corona, N. Y., home fo rthe Massachusetts port to flght any attempt by immigration authorities to send them back. Mrs. Maresco is English, Farmer Increases Income From Corn Thad Carlton Is a good exam ple of North Carolina farmers, who are finding that corn pro duction Is highly profitable when large yields are obtained through the use of hybrid seed and extra fertilization, particularly nitro gen. Tills Yadkin county farmer reduced the cost of corn pro duction from 87 cents a bushel to 57 cents, while at the same time, he Increased his net profits by more than four times, not counting land rent as an Item of expense. With 500 pounds of 3-12-8 fer tilizer, his local variety of corn, and about 4,000 plants per acre, he produce* 40 bushels of corn per acre at an expense of $35. With 500 pounds of 3-12-8, 10,- 000 plants ot Tenn-10, and 850 pounds of nitrate of soda, he made 115 bushels of corn per acre at an expense of $86. Carlton figured his profit, not counting land rent ,at $25 an acre with his local corn and $108 an acre with the extra fertilizer and the Tenn-10 hybrid, accord ing to County Agent D. R. Per kins of the State college exten sion service. Perkins points out that It re quires about 7 to 8 times as many man-hours of labor to produce an acre of tobacco as an acre of corn on the average and that there Is real money In corn where large yields are produced at a reasonable cost. He also points out that with Improvedv methods of produc ing corn, the grain requirements of the average farm can be pro duced on far less acres than at present. A Bronze turkey hen in the Agricultural Experiment Station flock at State College has laid 204 eggs since January 1. The average turkey hen lays from 25 to 45 eggs. The wraps are off LOBAN—a word that was whispered throughout the war—a whisper that told planes and ships at sea exactly where they were when they needed to know. nly a few research scientist* and technicians and a limited group of ship and aircraft navi gators and pilots have known that the word was simply a con traction of the phrase Long Range Aid to Navigation. On the North Atlantic, omong the Aleutians and the Islands of the Pacific, over the "Hump” from India to China, seamen and airmen have been kept on course by this heretofore mysterious electronic network that covered much of the earth's surface, un touched by enemy tampering, though hampered somewhat by nature. Tho LORAN network of shore- based coastal stations was main tained by the United States Coast Guard, which has Just re leased the details. It began late In 1942, when the battle of the North Atlantic was being waged by sea and air—greatly aiding accurate convoy rendezvous. New Fundamental LORAN uses a well-known fact f—that electronic waves tiavel a nautical mile in 6.185 millionths of a second. But it uses a new fundamental, "pulse transmis sion,” which enables time dif ferences to be measured accu rately. “Master” and "slave” stations were set up at considerable dis tances apart. Differences in ttme between radio waves from the “master”, and those In ef fect relayed through the “slave” were converted Into coded num bers by special ship or plane re ceivers. Tliese almost immedi ately gave the navigator his lines of position. LORAN Is one of the reasons television enthusiasts have had to wait for their sets; there is a cathode ray tube right square In the middle of every receiving set. So, instead of their seeing Bing sing on these tubes, essen tial to television reception, some ship's navigator has been poring over them to determine his po sition. LORAN operators have gone to sea and Into the air with charts' that would confuse the naviga tor of a decade ago. He would recognize the chart as a Lam bert polyconlc conformal projec tion, a map designed to mini mize distortion, but the hun dreds of red, green, brown and mauve hyperbolas streaming, crisscrossed, over It would puz zle him completely. The Navy, in co-operation with the National Defense Re search Council, constructed the transmitting stations. They send out pulsing waves on a frequen cy that Is as little susceptible to temperamental Irregularities as possible. The "master” Initiates Its wave, and the two “slaves” are activated upon reception of this wave to send, after a coded delay, their respective, pulsating waves. Exact Position Coded Having selected the set of sta tions that best covers his ap proximate position, the naviga tor tunes those stations In on his LORAN receiver set and (Continued on page 4) РЛГ.Е 2 THE •i*JSE FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21,1945 Radio Firms See 5,500,000 Sets For American Farmers Chicago.—Radio manufactur ers, counting their chickens in the form of postwar rural mar kets, say they Hope to sell S,500,- 000 sets to American families in the next flve years. How could they possibly sell that many? Rural electrlflcatlon Is the principal answer, as they see it. The Radio’Manufacturers Association bases Its estima'tes df - the - rural market on-the-llkelF hood that 3,150,000 more farm families will get electricity by 1950. It is also counting on sus tained rural buying power to call for replacement of most old radios. Latest available figures show that 90 per cent of the farms now electrified have radios. If the same percentage is main tained, this means a пет<^ radio for nine out of every 10 newly electrified farms, say the manu facturers. Moreover, they expect to do a big business in replacing the radios now in use on farms which they say (and hope) will no longer satisfy their owners. Their optimistic figure of 5,500,- OOO new radios is based on the assumption that farmers having electricity will turn in all their present radios — 2,340,000 — for new ones. Add that to the 3,- 150,000 sets to be bought by farm families whose homes will be electrified in the next five years, and you have the 5,500,000 fig ure. Bounds pretty rosy, but the manufacturers note that they have not counted the “rural non farm” population, v/hlch will also get electricity In their homes in the same period and who will be in the market for new radios. Farm Leaders Are Needed In 4-H Work JUl phases of 4-H activities are showing great progress in the Wallburg community of Davidson .(^ounty; and county and home agents of the State 'Ccdlege Extension Service say ithat thousands of such leaders 88 Mrs. R. Q. Lanning are need ed throughout the state. Mrs. Landing, the mother of a home agent, has been a leader of Home Demonstration work tor many years and now she is specializing in 4-H actlvtles, helping other boys and girls do a better Job. According to Lala Blalock, assistant home agent in David son, Mrs. Lanning has been pres ident of the county Home Fed eration Council, a representa tive to the State Council, and, a willing neighborhood leader. This fall she assisted with the Davidson County Pair and was made director of the canning department. So good was her own personal exhibit from the 522 containers of food that she prepared for her own family, that she won first prize at the fair. Later the same exhibit was carried to the fall federa- tlon meeting at Lexington, where about 15 home demon stration club women noted her excellent standards of canning. “Mrs. Lanning Is a very re sponsible, dependable leader, who thoroughly enoys her ac tivities," says Mls'.: Blalack. “She Is one of the most outstanding home demonstration leaders that Davidson County has pro duced, and we need thousands more like her, both men and| COUHfV To the Chairman of the Board of County Coinnii" sioners ot Davie County: ANNUAL REPORT OF INEZ NAYLOR Financial Agent of Davie County RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS From December 1 ,1944,'to December 1, 1945 GENERAL, POOR AND SOCIAL SECURITY FUNDS DECEMBER 1, 1944 CASH ON H A V n nR rRM IIRlf 1 H>44, V son, salary and travel ....................................... 112,60 labor on library .............................................. 128,00 Health Dept............................................................... 206.66 r.iee Journal, tax ad............................................... 15.00 ^ aecord, tax ad........................................................... 51.50 : rth, outside poor .1.................................................... 10,00 rary, outside noor ...................................................... 3.00 . ;.Iiller, outside poor .................................................... 4,00 .

New Secret Weapon Just Bow ’n Arrow Saigon, French Indo China.— Something new in secret weap ons has popped up here.* French authorities announced they had captured "a very clever type of Annamese automatic bow" which shoots flve arrows at a time from a special mag azine.

Support the Victory Loan I The adoption of standard con structions of cotton goods and the labeling of cotton products may bring a self-service selling plan such as is used in food stores. Spraying the bed mattress with a suitable DDT'preparatlon is all that is needed for the con trol of bedbugs, although a more general treatment of infested rooms will eliminate the bugs sooner.

Conant, president of Harvard university, advised against pin ning hopes on outlawing such terrible weapons as the atomic bomb. For example, he said, poison gas was not used in the World War II "not because it was out lawed, but because It was not an effective weapon.” The atom ic bomb, he commented. Is ef fective. Dr. Conant, an eminent chem ist, was. a witness at the last day of public hearings by sen ate milltary-commerce subcom mittees on legislation to set up a national science foundation. Senator J. William Fulbright (D.) of Arkansas asked Dr. Co nant whether it would take three or flve years for other countries such as Russia to catch up with America In the fleld of atomic energzy. "I’d put the figure at 5 to 15 years,” Dr. Conant replied. “It’s a guessing game.” As Dr. Conant saw it, there are three lines of defense against the atomic bomb: (1) interna tional arrangements, (2) mili tary preparations, and (3) basic research. The Woodstock Membership corporation of Belhaven, Beau fort county, has awarded a con tract for 30.4 miles of electric line to serve 109 members. Only four states have shown a decrease in the number of chickens raised this year. The states are Virginia, North Caro lina, Georgia, and Tennessee. Hitler Never Paid Any Income Taxes Frankfort, Germany. — Adolf Hitler, although one of the highest paid men in Nazi Ger many, never paid an income tax because he argued that “the head of the nation should not be annoyed by such require ments,” the American military government said Oct. 31. "Not only were large sums of money granted for Hitler’s use for which no accounting was required, but also no taxes were paid on extensive expenditures for erection of castles for his use," an ofllcitl report said. German fleld marshals, Nazi party ofiticials, and some of Hit ler’s personal favorites also dodged the payment of income taxes, the report said.

The procedure is performed again with the “master” and the other "slave” to get a second line of position. The Intersection of these two lines of position gives the navigator his position, or “fix.” An easy way to visualize the operation Is to consider two messengers leaving from the same pont at the same time, from Boston, for example. One gets directly to New York. The other, at the same speed, goes first to Albany and then to New York. Obviously, the second mes senger will arrive some time later than the messenger who went direct. The messengers need not go to New York, however, for there are a number of points at which they could meet with exactly the same difference of time between their trips. If all these points are indicated on a map, they can l>e connected by an evenly curved line, similar to the hy perbola oii a LORAN map, “Delay” Record Keys “Fix” The IX}RAiN system records the "delays" of the two sets of "messengers.” This gives two curves. And the navigator knows that his plane or ship is at the pcSnt where the two curves in tersect on the map. There are, however, several complications In the use of LO- RAN. Static electricity in humid air, thundertorms, and, espe cially, precipitation, all inter fere with the correct alignment and reading of the oscilloscope by causing “grass,” which is comparable to . visual radio static. “Grass” obscures the sig nal “pips,” or markers, on the scope, and, though there are at tachments designed to eliminate it, they also cut down the strength of the signals, so some times there is nothing gained. Sky waves are another diffi culty, but they are a mixed bless ing, for they extend the range from a daytime limit of 700 miles to a night-time limit 6f 1,400 miles. Sky waves ore sig nals which “bounce", that is, they bound from the transmit ter to the Ionosphere, an at mospheric layer 50 to 150 miles above the earth’s surface. In the daytime, ground waves only are Heavy Penalty Set For Wears of Nazi Garb London.—‘Any person found wearing German Army field gray uniforms or Wehrmacht head gear In the British-occupied zone of Germany will be liable to pun ishment up to the capital sen tence, according to the British nows service in Germany It is reported that about 40 per cent of the sweet potatoes produced in Vance and surround ing counties are lost because of Inadequate storage facilities and proper storage liouse manage ment. used on the LORAN receiver; they travel straight on a groat circle course from transmitter to receiver. Sky Wave “Bounces” But the sky wave “bounces” once, or, perhaps, two or three times; this delays the reception of the wave and must be com pensated for. There are tables for these corrections, and some of the charts have corrections marked on them. Nevertheless, it takes a very experienced and well-trained operator always to interpret his scope correctly, to know whether he deals with ground or sky waves, and to know how many times the lat ter have "bounced.” Further research will strive to find means to correct these dif ficulties and possibly to work out a means, as has one of our Al lies, of obtaining two lines of position simultaneously. This would remove the necessity of compensating for a fast-moving plane’s forward motion between the times of the first and second lines of position. At this time, a LORAN receiv er for an aircraft costs about $700; the Coast Guard suggests that, with moderate production, the price might come down to between $400 and $500. With improvements made on the existing system, it seems likely that a continuation of LORAN might well be consid ered in shipping and aviation circles. The Coast Guard has pose the postwar problem, how ever, of the necessity for main taining stations the world over and the ensuing need for some kind of international agreement on the continued operation of LORAN.

PIERCE FOSTER If It’s Cotton — See Foster” Mocksville, N. C. 15 Per Cent Decline In Farm Net Income Washington,—A decline of as much as 15 per cent in the net Income of farmers in 1946 was forecast by the agriculture de partment. The department said cash re ceipts from marketings probably would not drop quite that much. The net decline estimate, how ever, was based on the theory that some prices farmers pay for what they buy will increase. A 15 per cent decline in real farm Income still would leave it more than double the pre-war average, including the peak years following the first world war, the department said. In its 1948 outlook issue of the demand ond price situation, the department predicted that to tal demand for farm products would remain high through the year. "The curtailment of military purchases of most products will be offset largely, if not entirely, by expanding civilian require ments and increased purchases for relief and export,” the de partment said. "In some cases, the supplies released by the re duction or disappearance of spe cial military requirements will be absorbed only at lower prices.” The prices of fruits, vegeta bles, truck crops, and eggs "may decline somewhat more than those of other farm products,” it added. Farm wages, which have risen to almost three times'their pre war (1935-39) level, are likely to remain relatively high, although some declines are expectable in the second half of 1946, the re port said. Assuming average crop yields next year, total cash receipts. Including government payments, may be about $19,000,000,000. This is about 10 per cent below 1945, the peak. Total cash receipts for this year were estimated at about $20,400,000,000, with government payments bringing the total to around $21,200,000,000, 3 per cent above 1944. Indications are mat cash re ceipts from crops will be about 5 per cent above last year, re ceipts from livestock and live stock products only slightly higher.

There Is no way to compel delivery of goods, he added. The latest dig at producers comes from OEA Administrator Chester Bowles, who said In dis cussing reasons for the clothing shortage; “I think . . . a most Important factor is the tax situation. "Companies can look forward to a windfall If they withhold shipments now and release them next year when the excess prof its tax Is out of the picture." Mr. Bowles added in a state ment that “under the circum stances, the public’s need for clothes seems to mean very lit tle to some producers." Earlier Reconversion Chief John W. Snyder said In a speech that “Increasing reports are coming to Washington that some firms are holding up the flow of goods for which the markets are so hungry and which people need so badly." Mr. Snyder declared that “damming up the flow of goods Is Increasing the pressure aglnst controls that protect us from the threat of inflation, which Is to one’s Interest." Another official who has con cerned himself with the possi bility that foods are being with held Is John D. Small, head of the Civilian Production Admin istration. His agency has been making an Investigation ol manufactur ers’ Inventories, but thus far has reported no evidence of any hoarding of merchandise.

He said OPA’s plans were based on assumptions that the “vol ume of fabric shipment would be higher than It actually is, and that the flow of material would be carefully guided to those tyfes of clothes that are most essential and In the shortest sup ply." He did not elaborate on the latter point, but this may have been a reference to the fact that the War Production Board some weeks ago eased controls which had earmarked 75 per cent of all Automatic Pin*Boy Just Down the Alley Oroton, Conn.—The Electric Boat company, a submarine building firm, announced that one of its employees had Invent ed an "almost human” machine to elhnlnate the need for bowl ing pln-boys.

'i'-i YARDSTICK for measuring a transportation service W hat does the Southern Railway System mean to you? To your community? To the Southland? Is there any way to measure the value of its service? Perhaps these questiona will help provide a “ yardstick”. .. • Does the Southern handle a/i kinds of freight. .. and passengers, mail and express, too? • Does it provide safe, dependable transportation, all year 'round, in any kind of weather? • Does it buy large quantities of supplies and materials in the South? • Dues it give steady employment ^o large numbers of Southern men and women? • Does it pay taxes which help to support your schools, police and fire departments, and other local govern« mental services? • Does it constantly and vigorously promote the growth of the territory it serves? Yes, the Southern Railway does a// of these things! Thus, with this "yardstick” you may measure how well ths Southern “ Serves the South"... and how much this railway means to you, to your community, and to the future growth and prosperity of the greater, better Southland.

Booras, Boston, Mass., President of Ahepa. wanted to spend war earnings, ther ewas a lag of many months before the goods the factories were making could get to the shelves for the public to buy. The government exercised' few controls. So the public bid up prices of scarce goods. Prices Skyrocketed The fear of scarcities caused many firms to rush advance or ders and panic buying shot up prices. Prlccs had already ad vanced during World War I. But half of the total Inflation came after the armistice. There was a misleading lull for a few months after November, 1918. Then prices skyrocketed. For example the retail price of building ma terials Jumped 141 per cent. Ninety per cent of the total rent Increases came after ces sation of hostilities. Other prices followed suit. Housewives paid a dollar for a pound of butter. By mid-1920, after 18 months of intoxicating business activity and advancing prices, a "buyers strike” oc curred. This simply meant that people wouldn’t or couldn’t, pay the amounts asked. And new goods were coming on the mar ket In big quantities. - Then came the crash. Markets collapsed. The result— Five and one-half million workers lost their Jobs. One hundred and six thousand Arms went bankrupt. Four hundred and fifty-three thousand farmers lost . their farms. Total losses estimated for merchants, farmers and Indus tries in inventories, equalled 116,000,000,000. When the construction col lapse came, in June, 1920, there were widespread bankruptcies among home developers, con tractors and building material supply houses. Hundreds of thousands of construction work ers lost their Jobs. And through foreclosure, many veterans lost homes which had been pur chased at inflated values. U. s.

Collards Are High In Vitamin Content The farmer or city gardener who has a good patch of col lards is in luck because research men of the agricultural experi ment station at State college haVe found that this vegetable is an excellent source of three Important vitamins. Some people have referred to the lowly collard with a sneer but they were all wrong about This popular winter vegetable. Some mothers have Insisted that their children must have oranges for better health. The chemists and nutritionists, on the other hand, have found that the collard has twice as much vitamin C as oranges. Riboflavin is one of the Im portant health-giving vitamins needed in the diet and generous supplies are found In the col lard. When the research men of the experiment station exam ined the collard for its riboflavin content, It was found to be twice as great as In milk, on a com parable basis. They also found the collard to be rich in carotene, the pro vitamin A.' They pointed out, however, that tHie fresher the collard, the greater Its vitamin content. In other words, get the collard in the pot as quickly as possible and do not cook It too long. Since many people prefer to wait until after frost to begin eating collards, the research men made a special study of the vitamin content after frost and compared it with the con tent before frost. Their studies showed no loss In carotene con tent and only slight losses In the other two vitamins. So, regardless of when the collard Is eaten, It Is tops among the winter vegetables. The most abundant foods in December will be turkeys, chick ens, carrots, cabbage, and white potatoes. -M A -^W E -TH A N K -Y O U -F0R ^U R -G O 0D -\ WILÉ AND PATRONAGE DURING 1945.

S. PROMISED ERA OF GADGETS -I F INDUSTRIAL STRIFE CHECKED Washington.—The senate sub committee on war mobilization forecasts that post-war America will be a mechanically splendid place, but today’s industrial strife adds'a capltal-letter “If”. The committee has released a 200-page pamphlet crammed full of examples of wartime techni cal advances achieved in the United States — listing 839 new gadgets, products, materials, processes, Inventions, and tech niques developed in 1944 alone. New-type ■ helicopters, safer railway travel, two-way radios for taxis, Insulated glass for homes, shrink-proof -clothing, dresses of fine-spun aluminum, fountain pens with a two-year ink supply—the war helped ma terialize these innovations and hundreds more But will indus try produce them? WiU^, they reach the waiting hands of con sumers? These are the devices await ing the assembly-line touch of American productive genius. These are the atomic nuclei of new industries and expanded factories, of more employment and new Jobs. But It is recog nized that they will not be pro duced while Industrial strife continues, while industrial plan ning Is Jeopardized by uncer tainty of production, while re conversion stalls in the middle of the big push. Senator Harley M. Kilgore (D) of West Virginia, chairman of the mobilization committee, touches another key point when he declares In the report’s preface: "Running through the com pilation there appears over and over the phrase that this or that device or technique was ‘em ployee-suggested.’ An equally re current theme is the time-sav ing and man-saving factor, American working people have contributed greatly to our war- winning technology, and by their contrlbutioiw they fre quently have brought about their own technological displace ment.” When new peanut-harvesting machines, for instance, cut har vest labor down to one-tenth the present requirements, that means fewer Jobs for some folk. Yet it is stressed that this tech nological unemployment can be fleeting and temporary if hun dreds build new industries which will hire far 'more men than those momentarily rendered Jobless. Senator Kilgore would be the first to suggest, however, that when costs are cut by labor-sav- Ing devices, these savings should be spread around In the form of higher wages or shorter hours or lowered prices to con sumers — and lowered prices mean greater buying demand, hence more production, more Jobs and new profits. Technical Advances Here, then, are a few of the technical advances awaiting the application of the philosophy of expanding production: In aviation are listed four new types of helicopter— one of which marks the first successful application of automotive as sembly-line techniques to heli copter manufacture. A new two- cycle, four-cylinder engine may be a strong post-war competitor in the light-plane power plant field. Air transport safety is in creased by a weather bureau de vice which measures the distance of cloud ceilings two miles high. For the farm, a Milwaukee firm has a plow-substituting machine ready for production which stirs up the soil six Inches while revolving blades cut up the clods. Three new machines have been developed to harvest pea- nus. New potato planters, sprinklers, and spinach cutters are ready for manufacture, Safer railway travel is made possible by a frequency-modu- latlon telephone between loco motive and caboose. Radio fac simile transmission for trains has been tested successfully, and radio telephone is ready, with wires and rails carrying the mes sages. Two-way radio has been used on busses and taxicabs. Some day, one may be able to call a cab by . radio. Whether it will answer is another matter. New homes built within the next few years will have the benefits of improved technology —if men can afford them.

Rationing of butter, marga- lard, and shortening may trae into the spring, 1946, he lie rloe.” Less Optimistic The secretary was less opti mistic with regard to domestic supplies of sugar and fats and oils than he Was several weeks ago when he discussed them at news conferences. At that time, he expressed the hope that fats and oils could be taken off the ration list by the first of the year and that the sugar situa tion would be eased consldera- by next spring. optimism on sugar was upon the reported ,000 tons of conquest in ex- ipplnes esume iava and hst Indies he said, liugar from Moreover, latest reports Indi cate, he said, that the Philip-, pines may not be able to export sugar for another 18 months. As for fats and oils, domestic production of lard, cottonseed, and soybeans has not been as favorable as expected. The meat situation, on the other hand, is Improving right along, the seoretary said, as a result Of increased marketing of livestock and plentiful supplies of turkeys and poultry for the coming holiday season. Anderson said the increased allocation of food for Europe will leave plenty for the main tenance of present levels of con sumption In this country. Growers In Pamlico and Car- taret counties are testing two new types of cabbage, Round Head No. 1 and No. 2, which are said to be resistant to bolting and cold weather damage.
