FARM MOBILIZATION DAY BE HELD JAN. 12 Food Is one of the three es sentials to win the war and this country faces a food shortage this year. Consequently, the full re sources of. the country are being mobilized to produce more food this year. Davie county. In co operation with every other county In the U. S. A., has set aside next Tuesday, January 12, to make plans for raising more food In ,1943. President Roose velt has designated this day as National rarm Mobilization day. Davie will be asked to Increase Its food and feed production 20 per cent this year. Members of the Davie USDA war board met Monday and dis cussed the details. A series of meetings will be held through out the county on January 12 when the food needs will be dls cussed. All farmers are asked to attend. In Davie particular stress will be placed on more dairy prod ucts, poultry, corn for hogs and soy beans. These are products that the county can best in crease with Its preserit facilities. It Is pointed out that farmers face many problems this year in increasing their farm pro duction, due both to shortages 'br labor and farm machinery. At the same time It is stated that the farmers will demonstrate that they have the same In genuity that manufacturers have in making war goods. One Idea for overcoming the shortages Is to use fully all farm equip ment and labor that are avail able. Where one farmer has some farm machinery that his neighbor does not, he'may swap the use of the machinery for the labor of his neighbor. MEETING PLACES Meeting places and times on January 12 to discuss the 1043 food program are; At 2 p. m., William R. Davie school, Smith Grove school. Fork community building, Mocksvllle courthouse. At 8 p. m., Farmington school, Davie Academy, Sheffield, Ad- cance school building. PLEASURE CAR DRIVING OUT; FUEL OIL F. F. A. Boy Helps Win the War p. R. Smith, Jr., above, Is another F. F. A. boy in Mocks ville schools who is doing , his part towards helping produce more food to win the war. He is seen with two purebred Hampshire hogs, part of a hog project. He has already raised 15 pigs in the last six months and has nine more for sale. He Is a second year student in agriculture and the project Is under the supervision of J. W. Davis, agricultural teacher.. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. P. R.'Smith of Smith Grove. Ч i'iT /.-I Effective at noon yestarday, idl pleasure driving of automobiles was stopped by the OPA in the 17 eastern states and a 25 per cent slash was made in oil-heated noo- residental buildings. Private home^ are not affected by the order but such places as schools, stores and theatres are. The OPA left i l to school Isoards, store operators and others to determine how they will meet the reduced oil rations. Any motorist driving to amusement centers or to ’’purely social engagements” faces the cancellation of all or part of his gasoline ration. HITLER FACES DISASTER Hitler, in the opinion of many observers, faces hia greatest disaster of the war in Russia. Not only did he fall to take Stalingrad and the Grozny oil fields but the Russian winter offensives have shown much, surprising strength. Red troops are now within . 100 miles of Rostov and 21 Nazi divisions now face either destruction or withdrawal. Russian communiques tell of continued heavy loss of Nazi ^ soldiers, as well as the capture of ».number of strategic points, particularly Mozdok in the Caucasus and. Vellkte ^ Lukl on the Moscow front. L m L E ACTION IN TUNISIA Mud and rain continues to halt major operations In Tunisia where fighting is largely confined to patrols and some aerial activity. Heavy flghting is expected by our troops shortly for the possession of Tunis and Bizerte. FOOD RATIONING PLANS Agriculture Secretary Wickard directed OPA to begin rationing abuot 200 canned, frozen and dried vegetables and fruits as soon as machinery could be set up. U. S. civilians will eat nearly one-third less of these foods in 1943 than they have been accustomed to eating, Wickard said, but their diets can still be well-balanced and iiealth- ful. Rationing in the U. S. does not mean sub-standard diets. OPA said the rationing would begin in early Feb- urary, under the ‘‘point’' system. Supplies of goods to be rattoned will be temporarily and briefly frozen on retailers shelves and in distributors and processors warehouæs. Before l3eing issued a ration book, consumers must de clare canned goods they have on hand. Those goods will deducted from their allowances. Henvy penalties will be. imposed for giving false information. ' Under the point system, the housewife uses her stamps when she buys rationed foods from the storekeeper, the storekeeper uses the stamps when he buys from his sup plier, and the supplier, in turn, uses the stamps to buy Tfom his ôannei 01' iïuiii aiiothei supplier. All along the lino, there is complete freedom of choice. And since the point values are the same in every store throughout the nation, the retailer’s business in those rationed foods will be limited only by the point value of the .stamps he takes in from his customers, Thus, according to Elnie Davis, (Continued on page four) PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N.

Yet at home, too many of us are presenting the enemy with in formation of the same military value, the office of censorship says in a statement. This is the information which newspapers and individuals are asked not to tell the enemy: Do not tell the names of ships upon which sailors serve. Do not tell the troop uni’ which soldiers serve over’ There Is no objection i ■ veallng that Pvt. John Jones is In Australia or that Seaman Tom Brown saw action !n the Atlantic, but there Is military Information which endangers the lives of American fighting men in stating that Pvt. John Jones, "Company C,' 600th In fantry,” Is in Australia, or Sea man Tom Brown, "Aboard the USS Wisconsin," is In the At lantic. The office of cenaorahip says: "We ask editors not to publish these troop identifications, anrl we ask parents and relatives not to reveal them.

RATIONING INFORMATION ON CANNED FRUITS, VEGETABLES W- The following questions and answers to explain the principal points of the forthcoming pro gram for point rationing of can ned, bottled, and frozen fruits and vegetables, juices dried fruits, and all soups are released by the Office of Price Adminis tration. 1 Q. When will actual rationing begin? A. As early in February as possible. the retailer time to take an in- the fruits and vegetabes evntory of his processed food, canned at home last fall? 2 Q. Why Is it necessary to sus pend retail sfUIng at all? A. There are several reasons. In the first place, of course, all food stores throughout the coun try must be given an opportunity to prepare for the .start of ra- tioninu. They must have time to build up supplies, to train clerks, to receive and post the official OPA list of point values and familiarize themselevs w 1th those values; also It will give Secondly, the public must be re gistered for Book 2, be notified of the actual point values, and be given time to study them and budget their points for the first ration perold. 3 Q. How will the housewife know v/hcii point values a r c changed? A. The newspaper,s and radio will carry the annoucements, and every food store will have an OPA poster showing point vaues of each particular pro duct, A new poster will be ivjued when point values change. 4 Q, Will the point values be the •same In all stores, or will they vary between high-prlce and low-price stores? A, The point values are the same In every store In thi; coun try, regardless of the price charged. The housewife, In buy ing a No, 2 can of tomatoes will have to surrender the stamps for the same number of points regardless of whether the price is 12 cents or 15 cents, or whether the can Is of Grade A, B or C, or any other grade de signation such as “fancy”, “choice” or "standard”. ^ all canned soups 5 Q. How long will the first ra- interchangeable. If we can’ 1S W .V A. No. Nothing you have pack ed at home need be declared and no stamps will be deducted for these home supplies. It is ex pected, of cour.se, that you will use your home canned goods in stead of buying commercial products and thus help your government spread food supplies as widely as possible. 8, Q, There seems to be some question about dried and de hydrated vegetables and things like dehydrated dog food. Are these covered by rationing? A. No. Only dried and dehyd rated fruits — apples, peaches and the like. Dry vegetables like navy beans, split peas, and len- tlles are not included. 9, Q, What about chicken soup canned beef broth, turtle soup, and other soups made of meat or poultry stock containing few If any vegetables? A, All canned soups are ra tioned, no matter what their content. But not dehydrated .soups, 10, Q, But why ration all canned soups; why not only those made all or largely from vegetables? tlon period last? A, That will depend largely on the date when rationing be gins. If It were possible to start February 1, the first ration very probably would take in the en tire month of February, If, as now seems probable, rationing will begin on a later date, the first period may be an "odd” one covering either the balance of February or possibly the balance of February and the, full month of March, Thereafter, however, rationing periods likely will cor respond to the calendar months 6, Q, What Is going- to be done about people who have an ex cess supply of these commodi ties on hand? A, Everyone applying for War Ration Book 2 will be required to fill out and sign a "consumer declaration" form stating ex actly the stocks of processed foods on hand. Book 2 will have stamps removed for excess stocks and thus, In effect, will compel the applicant to use up the,se stocks before buying any more. Heavy federal penalties can be applied to those making a false declaration, 7. Q. Does this ‘‘declaration’’ mean that I will have to declare t \ E i 0 M e f u t COMPLIMENTS OF THE SEASON It is needless to state that we are grateful to those of you whose good will and friendship , has made 1942 worthwhile to us. May we wish for you a Hap py and Prosperous New Year! — • BUY WAR BONDS • — MOCKSVILLE BUILDING First raid on Europe by U. S, bombers was made on Ru mania in June, American fly ers helped chase Rommel out of Egypt, bombed Axis bases In Libya, t get one kind, we are very likely to take another. If we only ra tioned vegetable soups, a great demand would develop for meat and chicken soups, with the re suit that these would disappear from the shelves in a very short time. 11. Q, Why is not canned sal mon and canned meat included In the present rationing pro gram? A, Because ordinarily canned meats and flsh are not used in terchangeably with canned veg etables. The present program was intended primarily to cover processed fruits and vegetables, 12. Q. Will the housewife have to make an Inventory of ' her canned goods by products—so many cans of peas, .so many of beans, so many of cherries, and so on? A. No, she need report only the -tetal-number ofr cans that her household has on hand when rationing began, 13, Q. Can the housewife use the ration books of all the mem bers of her family when she goes .shopping. How about the maid who is furnished meals? A, Yes, she may take along each ration book issued to mem bers of her household. Just as CHESTNUT GROVE Mr, and Mrs. D. L.

The war in which we are engaged is a total war and -wlll-require-total-eifor^—meaning-by-total-efloEt-the undl vided effort and unreserved devotion of every man, woman and child In our country. In this New Year message to the people of North Caro lina. Senator Josiah W. Bailey reminds us of some of the t.hings that lie ahead. Says Senator Bailey: “The year, 1943 upon which we are entering will in every day of it and every hotir, be a time that tries the souls of men and women and children. This is not rhetoric. Our aouls will indeed be tried in 1943 and all the way through. We ought to have an end of complaining and men ought to be made ashamed of complaining. We must assume the attitude of the soldiers who are now either fighting or pre paring to flght in our behalf. They must obey orders. They must do their duty whatever the price. Some must die, others must be hungry, others may be captured, others may be wounded. Every one will be deprived of his liberty and his autonomy. We must pull the whole country to gether in united effort. The labor leaders must cease to think that they can use this opportunity to collect f6es or increase their membership or aggrandize their power. Business men, farmers, and all sorts and conditions of men must ccase to be thinking about how to get ahead or how to get advantage or how to get money other than the necessl- lUes of livelihood. Hie object now is not political power, nor is It world advancement, or improved conditions or the making of money. Tliere is but one objective now and that ia the winning of this war. There is but one duty now and that is to sustain tlie government and its armed forces. “Let is strive and endure in the earnest hope that the pres ent struggle will be the final World War—the final war. It Hr not necessary that we enter 1943 sadly or in dread. Let 10B enter it with hope and faith and unshakable resolution to bear every burden and do our p u t that the next New Year may come in peace or such prospects of peace and such retrospects of duty done as will make glad all hearts everywhere.” MOBE ABOUT WAR NEWS Director of the OWI, competition in the trade will be maintained, and a minimum of record keeping will be required of the storekeeper. TASK OF U. S. New Year's day 1943 marked the first anniversary of ttw formation of the United Nations. In his first press conference of the New Year, President Roosevelt recalled the world situation that existed one year ago when 26 nations bound together by the universal Ideals of the At lantic Charter, signed the United Nations declaration and thus created "the mlghtest coalition in history”. <Three other nations have since joined this coalition.) Today the unity achieved by these 29 signatory pow- ers i.s bearing rich fruit. The Untted-MatioHa, said the President, are passing from the defensive to the offensive, ever conscious, however of the supreme necessity of plann ing what is to come after, of carrying forward into peace the common effort which will have brought them victory in the war. Our task on this New Year’s day is three-fold, Mr. Roosevelt said - - first, to crush completely the present “•bandit assault” upon civilization; second, so to organize »elatlons among nations that forces or barbarism can never again bi-eak loose; and third, to cooperate to the end "that mankind may enjoy in peace and in freedom the unprecedented blessings which divine providence through (Die progress of civilization has put within our reach”. AXIS STILL STRONG Axis economic strength and weakness was outlined in a “beginning-of-1943” balance sheet Issued by MUo Perkins, Executive Director of the Board of Economic Warfare. Germany, said Mr. Perkins, has passed her peak production but is still economically formidable, with little likelihood of complete economic collapse in Oermany in 1943. Japan, however, is- much stronger in raw materials than she was a year ago, and except for a major weakness In shipping is now within reach of a powerful and In trenched economic position. The ability of the Axis powers to support defensive warfare is especially marked, he said, tiMit as both economies are strained, inflicting bombing damage on Oermany and attacking Japanese shipping will have Immediate effects on these coimtries’ war product- ~ X ywNNff vimHiN mwiru CUT DOWN HIS dKRevr Ion. PRODUCTION As for U. S. production, Chairman Nelson said that In 1943 this country expects to produce about twice as many arms as were produced In 1942, spending better than $90, 000,000,000 for war, as compared to 1942’s $52,000,000,000. November armament production showed the greatest monthly gain since the U. S. began to rearm In the summer of 1940—four and one-third times more war material turned out than In the month before the Jap attack on Pearl Harbor. Mr. Nelson gave the box score of November war production (over October): Airplanes, up 18 per cent; ordnance, up 13 per cent; army and navy vessels, up 9 per cent; merchant vessels, up 26 per cent and other mnu- Itions, up 9 per cent. Special attention has been given to the items most needed in the type of warfare now being waged in North Africa, with outstanding gains recorded Inthe output of single-englne pursuit planes, medium bombers, smaller transport planes, navy fighters, and in production of the self-propelled guns used In tank warfare;. Right now the U. S. Is turning out enough rifle and machine gun ammunition each month to fire 83 rounds at each Individual soldier In the Axis armies. In one year of war, production of small arms ammunition has In creased 550 per cent—and Is still going up. Backing up our production of finished war material s our production of metals and minerals. A year-end re port from the Bureau of Mines announces that In 1942 we produced more metals and minerals than In any year of our history. RELATIONS WITH NORTH AFRICA A communique from the Office of Oeneral Qlraud French High Commissioner, said no atteAipts to divide the French people in North Africa will be tolerated. The communique, explaining that steps had been taken to insure tranquility behind the fighting lines, said most persons had accepted the recent developments calmly but a small element had been trying to cause unrest. President Roosevelt expects to confer with Oen. Charles de Oaulle, but has already discussed, with a mission from Oen. Qlraud, the question of supplies for French troops. Elmer Davis and Milton Elsenhour of the Office of War Information told a press conference that unless substan- ial quantities of food and clothing arrive in North Africa before February 1, there will be serious trouble there. Miinh of the food earmarked for that area by lend-lease has arrived, but much more Is needed. From the beginning of the North Africa operations to December 26, 277 enemy airplanes have been destroyed. Allied losses for the same period 114—59 from the USAAF and 55 from the RAF. Allied air activity In North Africa has taken five main forms—short range fighters anr fighter bombers (mainly provided by the RAF) do battle area attacking; bombers (mainly provided by the USAAF) carry out daylight at tacks on ports, shipping, airdromes and railways; RAF reconnaissance planes protect convoys and attack U-boats, and USAAF transport planes bring men and supplies into the forward areas. In the southwest Pacific area in 1942, 1,286 Japanese planes were destroyed or damaged, according to an allied Air Force announcement. Allied plane losses in 1942 were small.

Tell the Jury whether you think he would be guilty of stealing this money.” Witness: "How much was it?” Boss: “No, son, I’m afraid I can’t hire you. We can’t use much help Just now.” Boy (determined to please); “That's all right, sir, I wouldn’t be so much help.” HERE AND THERE BOND QUOTA The January war bond quota for Davie is $35,574, Knox John stone, county chairman, has been informed.

TO HOLD NATIONAL MEET Tiie Davie Electric Membership Corporation, which operates ru ral electric lines In Davie, Yad kin, Iredell, Alexander, Rowan, and Wilkes counties has been invited to participate In a national meeting to focus at tention on the Increasingly im portant rolo of rural electrifica tion as an aid to wartime food production, W. L. Jones, super intendent, announced. Featuring natinoally promi nent spaekers, many of them leaders in the public power field the meeting has been called by the National Rural Electric Co operative Association, with sess* ions to be held January 19 and 20 in St. Louis, Missouri. It will be the first annual meeting of the NRECA, an organization formed several months ago in the interest of the rural electri fication movement. All of the 800 REA-flnanced rural electric systems in the country have been asked to send representatives to the meeting, although official delegates and alternates are to be named only by the systems that have Joined NRECA, according to Mr .Jones, who said the local co-op is a member. The theme of the meeting, “Power For Food’’ was explained in a letter received by the local co-op from Congressman Clyde T. Ellis, of Arkansas, general manager of NRECA, who extend ed the invitation. Discussion of how electricity may be put to wider use in the food production program will in volve a “re-appraisal” of regula tions that have limited the use of materials for expansion of rurla electrification. Congress man Ellis stated. Measures to be considered include; the possibil ities for additional service con nections along existing electric lines, in case where materials are already available; the in stallation of wire on poles that were erected before rural line building came to a halt several months ago; and relaxation of restrictions on tiie manufacture of appliances such as milking machines, motors, water .sy.setm and other devices, so that the farmer may obtain all the tools he needs to make his maximum effort, with minimum labor.

Thla would create shortages of tbe alternate foods which would then have to be rationed after the supply had been seriously depleted. 3. Q . What foods are included In the new rationing program? A. Canned, bottled and frozen fruits and vegetables, fruit and vegetable Juices, dried fruits, and all canned soups. These are known as "processed" foods. 3. Q. Just what is a processed food? A. A processed food is one that has been.. preserved so that it will keep as long as it stays in h; Iti processed condition. Canned : loods, for example, keep as long ÿ ,M;,,tÈey remain waled, frozen foods as long as they remain frozen. 4. Q. Are Jams, Jellies, and marmalades included? A. No, these are not generally used Interchangeably wtlh can ned fruits. 5. Q. Why are foods that are not used extensively Included in the rationing program? A. To preserve for consumers as wide a choice of foods as possible in spending their ra tion points. 6. Q. Is evaporated milk in cluded in the new rationing program? A. No, punned mlllc Is not be ing rationed in this program. 7. Q. What do the numbers of the ration stamps mean? A. The numbers on the stamps (8, 5, 2 and 1) show how much the stamp Is worth in "points." 8. Q. What is a point? A. A point is a ration value much as dollars and cents are money values. Rationed foods have both point and money values. 9. Q. Why are the stamps of different colors?. A. The blue stamps will be used for rationing processed foods, the red stamps will be used later for meat rationing. 10. Q. What do the letters on the stamps mean? A. The letters on the stamps will be used by the office of price administration to desig nate the time during which a stamp is valid. For example, stamps lettered A, B and C could be designated for use during the first ration period. 11. Q. Why is It necessary to give clllTerent point value.s to dlflpent kinds of processed foods? Why can’t they all have the same point value? A. Low point values will be given to foods that are relative ly plentiful; high point values to those that are mo;.^ scarce. The buyer can get more for his "points” by buying the foods with low point values. Since most housewives will no doubt do this, it will relieve the de mand for very scarce foods. ONE COLORED FARM SHOP CLOSES; ANOTHER OPENS In the recent meeting at Win ston-Salem of the farm leaders of 12 northwestern counties it was announced that available new farm machinery would be only 23 per cent of normal.

Colored farmers of Davie county are preparing themselves to cope with this situation. — The flrot class Iw-repair uf farm machinery closed recently •with a banquet. L. F. Williams served as master of ceremonies. The impressive thing about the remarks of every class member was that he had really leraned to perform many Jobs in the re pair of machinery that he thought a blacksmith could do. W. H.

BUDGET IS 109 BILLIONS; RUSSIA GAINING Ban on Pleasure Driving Explained The ban pn pleasure driving, as defined by the OPA, does not include such things as reg ular shopping trips, visiting sick, procuring medical atten tion, attending funerals, at tending church services, meet ings related to occupational or professional work, driving to work where it is essential to use motor transportation and other ordinary or emergency driving. The ban does Include driving 10 make social calls of any kind, going to places of amusement or recreation, to parties of a so cial nature, sightseeing, touring, vacation travel. In further listing types of meetings that come under the pleasure-driving ban are: civic clubs, fraternal organizations, parent-teacher associations, book clubs, sewing circles and all other social organizations, It is also a violation to drive to eat ing places where other means of eating arc available or other eating establishments.are near er by. Ban Packages To Soldiers Washington—because of the enormous amount of space used in transporting packages, Sec retary of War Stimson said the army has ruled that beginning January 15, no package may be sent to a soldier overseas unless it contains an article which has been requested by the soldier, and the request has been ap proved by his commanding of ficer The post office, he said, will not accept a package unless the written request, bearing the commanding officer's approval, is presented. Even such pack ages will be limited to five pounds, and may not be more than 15 lHche.i In length. Mag- azlnes and new.spapers may be mailed only by the publisher, and only if the soldier is a sub- (ConMnued on page eight) In the biggest budget in the history, of all mankind, President Roosevelt asked congress for about 109 blUton dollars in 1944. The budget Includes an additional 16 bll* lion in new taxes and "forced savings.’ War takes about 100 billion of the new budget, roughly the amount the government spent from Its birth in 1789 through 1930. The new budget proposes to raise about half of the cost of the war, 51 billions, in new taxes. The new budget would also cost every man, woman and child in this coun ty $825, based on a per capita cost. . Thp new budget reflects the cost of total war in a de mocracy and means heavier taxes for everybody this year. It is expected that some form of “pay as you go” taxes will be worked out soon—which will be accompanied by an estimated 25 per cent less of basic things for civilians than they had in 1941. Because of government spending for war, people will have more money this year to spend for fewer things. The government will absorb that money through more taxes and savings, rationing and other controls. RUSSIA CONTINUES HEAVY GAINS At last Berlin is beginning to admit to the German people that they are meeting I'everses in Russia. The Reds continue to report the capture of key points in the Cau casus and on the lower Don. Russian troops are now within 60 miles of the highly-lmportant town of Rostov, the fall of which would trap about 22 Oerman divisions. Oermany is reported making withdrawals in this area. WEATHER HALTS AFRICAN OPERATIONS Rain and what President Roosevelt caviled “appaling mud” continue to halt widescale operations in North Africa. It is expected that it will be February before the mud dries sufficiently to allow ground activities. Allied bombers, however, continue to blast Axis-held points. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT’S MESSAGE President Roosevelt will soon send to congress infor mation on his proposal that social security be extended to cover every American “from the cradle to the grave.” He told reporters that it will be up to congress to work out the method for achieving that objective. In his “State of the Union” message to congress, the president spoke of the third freedom—freedom from want— and of what the young men and women of America want beyond the winning of the war. In addition to the oppor tunity for employment, the people want assurance against the evils of all major economic hazards, an assurance that “this great government can and must provide.’ The president said the U, S. has reason to be proud of Aviation Machinist staff Sgt.

A joint statement issued earlier in the week by WPB, the war department and the navy said tlie revised 1943 war production program anticipates munitions production double that of 1942, with heavy emphasis placed on air craft, merchant shipping, and naval escort and combat vessels. As revised and adjusted to fit our actual strategic battle plans, the program provides for about twice as many planes as built in 1942, more than twice the merchant ship tonnage of 1042, and considerable increases in naval escort and combat vessels. These are, for the most part, items difficult to make, items requiring large quantities of ma terial parts, skilled manpower and special facilities. As for merchant shipping, Mr. Roosevelt told the press the 1942 goal of 8,00^0,000 tons was exceeded by almost 91,000 tons, The present rate of shipbuilding is 14,400,000 tons a year, and as things look now the 1943 goal of 16,000,- 000 tons may even be exceeded.

Another good indication a rough coat of hair that is aov/ in shedding in the sirring, '■’lien, too, digestive troubles will develop, e.5peciaily colic.

Treat ment is best administered by a .e'ocrlnarlan, v.'ho uses pheno- ihiiuiine and carbon tetrachlo- ridc for roundworms and carbon (;isulphidc for bots. Q. Where are the best sources ol obtaining clean seed with a high germination? A. A. D. Stuart, Stale collcge need speciaii.st, says clean seed are readily obtained in North Carolina in two ways. The farm er may buy either certified seed with the blue tag of the North Carolina Crop Improvement as sociation, or lie may purchase seed showing an oil’iclal analysis tag on the bag stating the seed has high germination and pur ity. Q. How Is farm machinery best protected during tlie wln- t,er? A. David S. Weaver, agricul tural enylneer of the extension service, .says rusting and rotting go on continuously when metal and wood are exposed to weath er. P’or this reason the macliln- ery should bo housed, if po.ssible, and protected with paint and grease. Bccause of tlie slacken ing of farm work during the winter, this season forms the best time for this important work.

Yes, Bill has been guarding that crossing for a good many years now . . . and never before has he seen the likes of the transportation job the Southern Railway is doing today. You see, when America declared war, the men and women of the Southern knew that they would bo up against the biggest, most important job they had ever tackled. They know now that millions of fighting men are counting on them to keep enormous quantities of war goods rolling. They know now that Uncle Sam is depending on them to move troops by the millions...swiftly, safely, at a moment’s notice. They know now that gas-and-tire-rationed civil ians are looking to them to handle essential civilian travel and the transportation of civilian necessities. It’s a big, tough job...chock-full of headaches and heartaches, But the Southern’s men and women are g e ttin g it d o n e l That's why full-packed trains are rumbling by. Bill's post at the crossing in an endless procession ... carrying freight and passengors in a volume that amazes even railroaders. W hat's more, the trains that are heavy with war traffic today will keep on rolling after Victory is won. For then the Southern Railway will be serving a new and a greater South...a busy, prosperous Southland. And Bill will still be saying, “ I never saw the likes of it!” President SOUTHERN RAILW AY SYSTEM It isn't just for luck that the propagandist are khocking on Hollywood, PAGE 4 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

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, 1879. y^Norih Cûrôljno '^PBESS^ÜCIAIIC^ The Immediate Task We are in agreement witii tliose who believe we should be considering the world after the v/ar, but we are unable to see the wisdom^of debating it now. This is the time.for study, and there should be groups appointed to do that, but, tiie immediate job is to defeat Germany and Japan. One has to catch a goose before he can cook it, and we must secuer some control before we begin to exercise it Events of the past few years, and conditions at the present, should convince us beyond a doubt that we can win only by hard fighting, and that every man, woman, and child in America should be harnessed to the job. In For It Not only are we to have congress in session, but we in North Carolina wil have the state legislature in meeting ior a spell. Both, we are well aware, are necessary, and de spite their many faults, being composed of human beings, have done fairly well in making Democracy work. But, to be frank about it, the recent session of congress left us with deeper impressions of the weakness of Democracy than its strength. That, we suspect, was due to the fact that the weakest members made the most noise. We do hope for more reason, less politics, and more patriotism in the new congress. And, it is our hope that our legislature, realizing the seriousness of the times in which it meets, will bring the state into effective coopera tion with the national administration, and with the whole war effort. Save the oratory for picnics. A Great Man The front pages of many newspapers throughout the land carried the story of the passing of Dr. George Wash ington Carver, the noted Negro scientist, who had been a member of the Tiukegee Institute faculty since 1894. Dr. Carver was born of slave parents, but became one of the world’s outstanding scientist. Dr. Carver, a Black Man, gave proof that ability is not confined to race, but in all races there are men, who if given the opportunity, will develop great powers of mind and spirit. He was an humble man, another mark of greatness. He made discov eries which added millions of dollars to the income of Southern farmers, and in many other discoveries made contributions of incalulable worth to the scientific world. The world recognized him as a great man, and a great scientist. He might heve made a fortune, but he choose to live simply, and to give his discoveries to the world. His great mind rested on the firm support of christain char acter. Dr. Craver’s life, his achievements under great diffi culties, and his contributions to society give us an answer as to what the Allied world is fighting for, or should be iighting for—that every person,, regardless of race, color, or creed should have the free opportunity to develop to the limit of his capacity, and. to fulfill the Divine purpose in his life.

The records showed that the total yield of the Sequoia pota toes was 2,462 pounds and the total yield of the Irish Cobbler only 1,638 pounds. This was an Increase in yield of 824 pounds in favor of the new variety, or 50 per cent better than the Irish Cobbler. Because of its excellent yields and its resistance to diseases and insects, the Sequoia will be planted by even larger numbers of North Carolina farmers this year, McCrary said.

Reports also indicate, he said, tliat the Japanese are piass- ^ ing a large armada near the Solomons, presumably for an- ^ other drive on the Islands. According to the navy, there have been no Japanese landings of reinforcements and supplies on Guadalcanal in recent weeks. None of the ten destroyers which were headed toward the Island and intercepted on January 2 by U. S. airmen and torpedo boats succeeded in getting through the American defenses. On January 0, American warplanes in the South Pacific attacked a Japanese trans port in the Shortland island area of the Solomons and re ported a possible hit on the stern of the ship. From Secretary Stimson comes word that on all fronts the outlook is “favorable.” In North Africa, the British first army has scored gains in the north toward Bizerte, the French have ably iought off German attacks in the south ern sector, and Allied aerial activity against enemy ship ping has been highly effective. Mr. Stimson interpreted the German position in Russia as grave and pointed out that in the Caucasus' a German withdrawal appears to have begun. Turning to the Pacific, he said American and A us-^ tralian forces have virtually completed ejecting the J a p a -w nese from New Guinea island, and in the Solomons Ameri can forces have been reinforced and supplied and their po sitions strengthened. He pointed out, however, that the Germans and Japanese have suffered few major reverses, and cautioned against underestimating their offensive capabilities. A, U, S, fifth army, to be commanded by Lieut. Oen. Mark Wayne Clark, is now being formed to fight in North Africa. This will make Lieut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower supreme commander of two Allied armies, the other being the British first army commanded in the field by British Lieut. Gen. Kenneth A, N. Anderson. COST OF LIVING An OPA report on tliree typical months of residential rent control gives complete details of how the nation’s $8 billion annual rent bill has been held in check. Rent con trol has spread over 356 areas, and now covers more than 76 million Americans. Tenants in these areas are assured of stable rents in 1943 and freedom from fear of evictions. Moving toward simplified and standardized retail food prices, the OPA has established uniform retail and whole-* sale margins on nine food commodities—coflee, canned fish, cooking and salad oils, shortening, corn menl, canned^ citrus fruits and juices, evaporated and condensed milk, pure maple and corn syrups, and flour and flour mixes. Thus every housewife in the principal population centers will now know exactly, in cents per package and per pound, the celling prices oh these items in her food budget. This is only the initial step, said OPA. Broader action lat^r on will cover a wide range of products including meat and many staple groceries. FOOD DISTRIBU'nON The food distribution administration is establishing machinery to deal with widespread local food shortages. Since national food supplies are not inadequate, these local food shortages are almost entirely the result of maldistri bution, and the new program is intended to obtain more equitable supplies of foods until such time as rationing be gins. To handle these critical supply problems, Food Ad ministrator Wickard has directed the FDA to organize at once local and state committees of government represen tatives and representatives of the food manufacturing and distributing industries for the territory concerned, includ- inlg a representative of each of the food retailer groups and of each type of general line food wholesalers. The committees will investigate food shortage com 9 plaints from consumers, dealers, institutions and organi zations. The aim will be to give one-day service to verify complaints, such verification to determine whether actual critical shortages of essential foods exist. , If the situation cannot be corrected locally, It will be referred to the FDA state chairman who will try to obtain supplies elsewhere within the state. If it cannot be cor rected within the state or at the regional level, it will be re ported to FDA headquarters In Washington. FDA head quarters will then deal with appropriate national trade or industry associations. And in view of the success of recent arrangements with the American Meat Institute and the offers of similar cooperation by other Industries, the FDA believes this can be an effective means of meeting the more critical problems of shortages. Meanwhile, manufacturers of creamery butter have been directed to set aside for direct war requirements 30 per cent of their monthly production, beginning February 1, to obtahi sufficient supplies of butter for the needs of the armed forces and for minor export to Allied nations. i After January 9, the production of all citrus juices. \j except unconcentrated grapefruit juice, will be reserved for war requirements. This is food distribution order No. 3, and its purpose is two-fold—-to insure adequate supplies of canned citrus products for government war require ments and to conserve tin by requiring civilians to use fresh cltruB fruita instead of canned fruits.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON 4VUII The Sunday School lesson for luary 17 Is, “Jesus Winning eoula.”—John W, !•«. I....Older than the pyramids, many springs and wells have llowed ceaselessly for uncounted millenniums. Mighty palaces and fortresses have been reared and have crumbled to dust. Oreat empires have risen, thriven and fallen; but the lowly springs have flowed on, ministering to myraids of thirsty souls, a par able of spiritual influence. One of the most famous of such wells, which bears the name of the Patriarch Jacob, is slightly off the main road that runs north and south throughout the length of Palestine. It Is a short idlstance below the city of Nablus the ancient Shechem. Beside it are the remains of a Crusadei' Church, and the beginnings of a new Greek church; for the arceks hold title to the spot, and miantaln worship in a chap- M built over the well. One’s Im- ^jbinatlon plays over the long sucession of thirsty children ■ who, throughout three thousand years, have drunk from this well which Jacob dug for the use of his own company and flocks, never dreaming of the heritage he was bequeathing to mankind. This particular well's great antiquity Is less In the visitor’s mind than the one incident which made It famous. For here one evening sat the tired and hungry Jesus, and to a flippant and flirtatious Samaritan wo man expounded the greatest truths of religion. That Jesus so often lavishly gave of His best to the least Is one of the signifi cant facts of the Oospel. A pom pous Civil War statesman Is re ported to have brushed aside an appeal with the curt words, “I have no time for individuals.” Whereupon his visitors retorted, ■‘Then you are ahead ot God Al mighty." For Jesus Incarnated and taught the truth that God's cars Is for His creatures, one by one. ■ When Jesus asked for a drink from Jacob's well, the Samaritan woman raised the race Issue; “For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans”. Our present day Is sorely troubled by the Negro question the Jewish question. Good Care Assures More Young Lambs Saving a liigh percentage of the new lamb crop and getting them ready for an early market iii one of the important wartime jcba of the North Carolina I'ui'mer, according to Dale C. ¿iiodgrass, animal husbandry i!;:ten.sion .specialist of N. C. •Slo.te college. By follov.-iug a few simple, wcii-establlshed practices, the •liieepman can be sure of suc- cc'.’i.s with his young . animals. Snodgrass li.sts some of these practices as follows; Have the ewes In a good, strong, thrifty condition befoie lambing, and be sure that the flock is separated from othei stock, especially hogs. . Do not disturb a ewe at lamb ing time, unless she needs help, but be sure to stay on the job.' Carelessness may mean the loss' of a lamb. See that the young j iamb nurses and does not be come chilled. Should the ewe disown her lamb, try' to got her to claim It, Gradually Increase the feed given to the ewe after the lamb Is about one week old to stimu late the flow of milk. During lambing time, the ewe should be housed at night nad during liad weather. If a new born lamb becomes chilled, take it to a warm room room and put It in warm water up to Its neck. After the young animal is wanir, taice It oui; ot tile water and dry it thoroughly before placing it with the ewe In a warm dry place. , Watch young lambs closely during the first ten days for such common ailments as con stipation, diarrhea, and “pin ning.” For digestive troubles, give the lamb one teaspoonful of castor oil or one tablespoon of milk of magnesia. Dock or castrate the lainb when from one to two weeks old. The ram lambs can be docked and castrated at the same time. White for Sporte and the Orentlal question. We cannot settle any of these with glib comments of vague post ponements. We must face them frankly, and deal with them in the Jesus way. He disposed of them by aflirming the universal ity of God's care for all His crea tures. Religious intolerance he condemmed; God is a spirit, to be worshipped in the spirit and in truth. Included in the Divine fatherhood in human brother hood. Children of God must have enough of the Father’s spacious love to care for all His other children, regardless of creed or color. One of the most hideous aspects of Hitlerism, against which we make war. Is its mur derous persecution of Jews, and its arrogant assumption of racial superiority. One by One More important to the patient Teacher from Nazareth, as He sat that day by Jacob’s well, than either His hunger or thirst, was the salvation of the sinful Sam aritan woman. He knew the worst about her; yet He also dis cerned the best within her. And by winning her, He won a mess enger of salvation to her neigh bors. So the chain lengthens, link by link. One wins one, and that one wins one, and thus the King dom grows. By changing that Samaritan woman and making her a missionary, Jesus opened her village to a two-day sojourn by Himself and His dlclples. m o TMCSC W AM T A P J^.for what YOV YfASnr WANTED—Used washing ma cliine In good condition, Mrs. .

The Reds lifted the seige after seven days and nights of fighting, capturing the ancient fortress of Schlu68selburg which Hitler had fortified with pill boxes In depth and which was thought to be Impregnable. Red armies are also smashing-towards Rostov, having crossed the northern Donets river. The Soviets say that only 70,000 of the 200,000 Germans which were encircled before Stalingrad now remain.

Several drivers in the county have already been reported to the local rationing board and will be given hearings to prove they were on essential missions when checked by the officers. ' Unless those who have received tickets can prove to the con trary, they will be deprived of ration books, it is sttaed. Newspapers j^In Wartime One of the principal func- ■ tions of newspapers during wartime Is to keep the people Informed. It is the news paper’s contribution towards helping win the war, classi fied as an essential Industry by the government. All newspapers, particularly the smaller ones, have been and are facing rising produc tion costs and decreased reve nue. That explains two things: First, the increase to $3 in the circulation price of The Enterprise. Second, the fact that ad vertisers are called on to sup port various governmental campaigns, such as war bonds, to help win the war. The gov ernment does not, as in Eng land, pay for advertising. It b sends advertising material to " the newspapers and urges them to iiave (he advertising sponsored by local concerns. As an example of the cam paigns newspapers conduct to Inform the people, we cite the article and picture in this week’s paper on point ration- in*.

(Enterprise Staff Photo.) B’ollowlng a meeting in Winston last Friday when rep resentatives of 14 counties gathered, to hear the details of point rationings explained, leaders of farm clubs and va rious communities of Davie county met at the courthouse last Tuesday afternoon to discuss the new rationing system which will be put into effect soon. At the Davie meeting Miss Florence Mackie, home demonstration agent, presided and a round table discus sion was held after the following topics were explained: Miss Mackie, the necessity of rationing during war. Mrs. O. C. McQuage, community service chairman, point rationing as related to war ration book two. R. S. Proctor, function of the schools in carrying out the registration and information about the rationing pro- grom to the school children. Mrs. W. H. Kimrey, clerk in the rationing board, an swered questions relative to the ban on pleasure driving. Those from Davie who attended the Winston meeting included Mis. Kenneth Bruton, Cooleemee; Miss Florence ■MacKie,' M'§: W.'ir'Ktmfey, Mrs."OT‘C.’McQuage;-’R'.'S. Prpc- ' tor, D, R, Stroud of the rationing office,'and Paul Black-' welder, chairman of the rationing board; J H. Thornpson, chairman of price panel; As community service member of the rationing board, Mrs. McQuage gave the following high lights about the new point rationing as it was explained in Winston: 1. Every eligible man, woman, child and baby will be >iven war ration book two. This book, is not used for sugar or coffee. 2. The blue stamps are for any kind of canned or bot tled fruits and vegetables, canned or bottled juices and soups, frozen fruits and vegetables, dried fruits. Red stamps will be used for meat. 3. The stamps in the book are point stamps. The number on each stamp shows how many points that stamp is worth. 4. Letters on the stamps show when they are to be used. The year will be divided into rationing periods. All blue stamps marked A, B and C can be used in the first ra tioning period but cannot be used after that time ends. 5. Blue stamps buy any kind of rationing processed foods. 6. The government will set points for each kind and. size of food. For example, a can of beans may take a dif ferent number of points from a can of peas. 7. The grocer will have a list showing the point value for each article. The government may make changes from time to time in the point values, probably not oftener than once a month. 8. Before you buy it is important to know how many points the foods will cost you. 9. Use only enough stamps to make up the right amount. For example, if the food you buy calls for 13 points it is better to tear out an 8-point stamp and a 5-point stamp than two 5-point stamps and a 2- and 1-point stamp. Save your smaller point stamps for low-point foods. You can take the stamps from more than one book belonging to your househld if you need to. 10. All stamps must be torn out in presence of tlie merchant, no loose .stamps being acceptable. 11. To buy sugar and coffee war ration book one must be used as at present. 12. Prior to the beginning of the rationing, there will be a ten-day freeze on all processed foods to allow the grocers ,to stock up. , 13. Dates for registration for war ration book two have not been announced by the government. The regis tration will be conducted by the schools at the various school houses. PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, JANUARY 22, 1943 SWICEGOOD IS WAR VETERAN AT ÂSE16 Hubert Hoyle Swlcegooct, son of Ml-, and Mrs. V. A. Swicegodd, is buck on the home farm al' the age of IG, an army veteran' with an enviable record behiacii him. He has an honorable dls-i charge In his pocket, ii lot of¡ exciting memories of the air field at Fort Bragg and a de termination to'get back into service Just as soon us he can. When he enlisted last May 25, in his desire to get Into tlie scrap lie streched his age a mite. He's ia good-sized, husky lad and the army recruiters at Mocksvllle didn’t question the fact that he was 18. As a matter of fact, he celebrated his 16th birthday the day after his acceptance. He entered with such zest into the life of a member of the air force ground crew, and learned so fast that he was made a pri vate first class in about three weeks, which would be some thing of an achievement for a much older man. At the time he was probably the youngest sol dier in the entire camp, largest army artillery base in the world. Somehow or other the truth aljout his age reached the ears of his superiors, who followed the only course open to them, though no doubt with regret. They sent him back home after five months and seven days of army life. They let him keep his unl- iorm, however, though his In signia removed, and he still lie 's Goirii'.' B ack HUBERT HOYLE SWICEGOOD wears It, wii,ii Justifiable pride!

IT PAYS TO ADVERTlSBi BROUGHTON TO OPEN LIMEROCK Firing of a dynamite charge on January 22 will officially open the long closed lime quarry in Yadkin county owned by the state highway and public works commission. The charge, which is expected to send tons of agricultural lime tumbling to the floor of the mine, will officially begin opera tions of the long closed lime mine at Limerock. Continued operations by state highway commission forces will afford farmers of Yadkin, Surry, 'W^llkes a'hd other surrounding places, good quality lime at a lower cost than heretofore. Governor Broughton, High way Chairman D. B. McCrary and other oflicials representing state highway and agriculture departments will attend a ban quet being presented by local people in Elkin. All farmers in the section have been cordially invited to attend this meeting as well as a special agriculture session for farmers also held in Elkin at 5 o’clock. The lime mine In Yadkin county, which has long re mained closed due to reports of geologists, who claimed its work ing would be impractical, is be ing reopened because of effort of the governor, former Highway Chairman Ben Prince, now In the armed forces, and local peo ple of Surry, Wilkes and Yadkin counties. The lime Is of good quality and primary purpose of opening the mine will be to ofTer the farmers a local source rather than having to depend on In creasingly unreliable and rising cost of the stone shipped by rail. Opening of the local mine is also expected to lower the cost of lime considerably. William A. Graves * Dies at Lone Hickory William A. Graves, 62, died Saturday afternoon at his home at Lone Hickory.

He has 24 combat missions to his credlt-U is a good average, he said, for the period he has been In actlon-and is pretty lucky to be alive. The crew that he had to start with are about all gone just three of them left, and all have medals. Seven of the men . who gave their lives were award ed medals, tooi Lieutenant Ferebee says, "My medals don’t make me a hero, though, just shows I am still giving ’em some hell.” ^'In terestin Commenting on the country, Ferebee wrote, "Africa Is an In teresting place to see. It Is a place where a kid would stand and stare all day. I see camels and such all thé time—just run ning around in the open.” Men of the original crew who made the supreme sacrifice have been replaced by "some mighty good boys, so we are carrying on for the other fellows who weren’t so lucky as we,” the of ficer writes. The letter, written Christmas eve, and sent to Ferebee’s uncle C. T. Ward, 426 Washington ave nue, Winston-Salem, said, "I am due for a rest period in a few weeka—where it will be spent I . do not know.” He adds, "But I don’t care to return to the States until this thing Is over.

Farming In 1943 It is evident that farmers of this section are going to have a hard time this year. There will be less labor and what is available will cost more. There will also be less farm machinery available. At the same time the farmer is asked to increase his production in 1943. That would be a hard task in a normal year because the weather last fall was exceptionally good and crop yields were much better than average. So the farmer, like many others of us, faces a problem in war time. No doubt he will come through because lie has Ingenuity and will fhid many ways to overcome handi caps. Swapping labor for machinery or vice versa may be one of the best means of reaching production goals, One favorable factor is seen for the farmer; the out look for prices is extremely good. New Ration Books For the next few weeks this county, as of all the others in this country, will be learning about the new universal ration books which will soon be issued. Housewievs will buy many of their foods by the “points system—a value which the government will assign to each commodity according to its plentitude or scarcity. . Since the “point" system will be the only one avail able, everybody must learn how to use the new ration books. The new system is not as complicated as it seems. Many school chldren will learn about it and tell their parents. ' The principal fact is that all housewives must know how to use the new books when the new system goes Into effect, expected to be early next month. Meanwhile this newspaper is carrying a series of ar ticles about the new ration books, everything that is cur rently available, and suggests that you read them care fully. On the front page of this week’s Issue is a story about the ration meeting in Winston-Salem last week. Pay Now Twenty-seven million Americans will soon be paying heavy Income taxes that as time goes on will become even heavier. To all but a mere fraction of this number, personal income taxes will be a new experience. In fact, according to recent surveys, a good proportion of these people do not yet realize they have been included in the taxable brackets. They are making no preparations to pay taxes. They are spending their money as fast as they earn it. The threat to government authority and solvency by a mass of potential tax delinquents, is serious. A practical solution Is the prompt adoption of a pay- as-you-go arrangement such as the Ruml plan. Mr. Ruml, former dean of social sciences at the University of Chicago, ;and Chairman of the Board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, observes that: “Nothing can be gained by arguing that people ought to have saved the tax on last year’s income out of lastyear’s Income. The fact is that they did not do it and now they cannot do It” Every taxpayer must realize that we cannot survive Avar, and return to a system of individual freedom unless the government remains solvent. If It is to do that, the people will have to pay taxes and buy bonds on a devastat ing scale. Tax laws must be mercilessly far-reaching and 'efficient.

WOMEN IN WAR This week, WMC Chairman McNutt, announcing that 4 million women are now working in war plants, predicted that In very short time one out of every four workers In American war Industries will be a woman. To meet 1043 ' war production goals, the number of women workers must Increase, until, by the end of the year, 6 million women will be engaged In war production work. * An intensive campaign is to be launched this month by the Red Cross nursing service,, to recruit 36,000 graduate registered nurses for the army and navy nurse corps, 100,- 000 Red Cross nurses aides to assist professional nurses l i ^ civilian and government hospitals, and one million stu dents in Red Cross home nursing classes, teaching methods of protecting health and preventing illness In the home. Mr. McNutt, as director of defense health and welfare serv ices, announced that if even minimum civilian and mili tary needs of the nation are to be met, 05,000 young women must enter schools of nursing between June 30, 1943, and July 1, 1944. AGRICULTURE AND WAR Calling on farmers for unprecedented production In 1943, President Roosevelt said food already sent to the peo ple of North Africa Is saving the energies and the lives of American troops there, Food, he said. Is a weapon in total war and the record crop produced last year by American farmers is a major victory of the United Natoins. Year-end estimates from the department of agricul ture show 1942 output of livestock and livestock products (for sale and home consumption) up 12 per cent over 1941, crop production up nearly 14 per cent and total agricul ture production up more than 12 per cent. But it is still likely that, due to unprecedented national Income and ris ing government requirements, 1943 demand for farm prod* ucts will rise well ahead of production, Attainment of t l ^ 1943 food goals would mean a 12 per cent increase (ove" 1942) in livestock and livestock products, a 4 per cent In crease In total agricultural production, and a total 'food production Increase of about 6 per cent. If these goals are attained, 1943 will be the seventh consecutive year to set a food production record. After government requirements have been met, the volume of 1943 food production left for civilians is expected to be about the same as the 1935-39' average, which was adequate to feed the nation five years ago but is 10 per cent below 1942. , OFFENSIVE IN LIBYA The Allies have opened an air offensive against Gen eral Rommel’s retreating Afrlka Korps In Libya, On Sun day, January 10, Allied planes bombed and machine gunned the German forces on the coast road between Misurata and Tripoli. On Tuesday, January 12, they made a lightning attack on Castel Benito, ten miles south of Tripoli, raining bombs on the airfleid, setting Are to buildings and destroy ing at least'Ave enemy planes oh the ground . . . and on the way back. Flying Fortresses rushed into a 75-mile run ning battle with German Messerschmltt fighters and with out loss brought down 14 of them. On the 13th, Allied planes. In broad daylight, opene^ a heavy attack on German positions in the Wadi Zemzem area and in a fierce air battle shot down four Messer- schmltts and damaged others. The night before, bombers had attacked enemy landing grounds at Misurata (which Is about 60-70 miles north of the Wadi' Zemzem defense line) an(\ had followed up by bombing Axis-held roads wd fields and machine gunning transport convoys all the way from Misurata to Tunisia, 270 miles to the west. Allied fighter and bomber planes, the next day, again carried the battle to Misurata and to Tripoli. Meanwhile, the activity in Tunisia contlues with Allied air forces hitting hard against the Axis coastal towns and the French reporting gains in the southern sector. On the New Guinea, U. S. and Australian troops con tinue to close slowly In on the tight little Japanese strong hold on Sanananda point. Hampered by torrential rains, Allied troops on Friday were still one and one-half miles from the main enemy positions.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON T h e S a a d a y S c h o o l L e sso n f o r J m n K T y S I ta “ J e s u a T h e B ra » « o f L lfe ”-< J o h n 6. Ita significance aomewhat ob- acured by day-to-day battle news the government at Washington recently took a step that marks a new advance In civilization. The President appointed Gover nor H. H. Lehman of New York, to begin preparations for a task greater than the landing of an expeditionary force—nothing less than the feeding and rehabili tation of all the hungry and broken Jives that war will have left In Its wake. The only pre cedent for this vast project of benevolence Is the magnificent slmUar service rendered to the destitute after the first World War by Herbert Hoover and his organlztalon. This vast service grows straight out of the Christian character and ideals of the na tions. There Is no precedent in the history books for this global philanthropy. It derives directly from the New Testament. It Ipchoes and practices the teach in g s of Jesus. News of this well- night Incredible altruism may have a direct efiect upon the ending of the war. Doubtless the propaganda agencies of the United Nations are Informing the hungry people of Europe that the shortest way to end their sufferings is to submit to the forces 'which bear bread, as well as guns and planes and tanks. A Parallel, Feeding As we think about the fa miliar story of the Feeding of the Five Thousand, our minds naturally move on, in the path indicated by Jesus, to the other hungers than the merely phy sical form which the world suf fers. Of course, bread comes flrst, as It did in the miracle on the sloping mountainside which looks down upon the northeast ern corner uf the Lake of Gali lee. The Great Teacher was mindful of all human needs. Valorous deeds can scarcely co incide with an empty stomach. Food for the body Is the basic requirement of life. It was In evitable that one of the "Four Freedoms" to be attained In the postwar world Is freedom from want. We cannot continue to live serenely on an earth where millions are constantly hungry. It was the higher hunger for PIONEER DOCTOR PASSES AT 84 Funeral services for Dr. S. L. Rus.sell, pioneer physician, were conducted from North Deep I Creek Friend’s church Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Rev, Pcrcy Key and the Rev. Charles H. Hutchens were In charge. Burial was made In the church graveyard with Masonic rites. Dr. Russell died Sunday morn ing at the home of his daugh ter, Mrs. Guy Hoots, East Bend, Route 2. He had been In de clining health for some time but his condition was not critical until four days ago. He was 84 years of age. Born In Yadkin county June 21, 1898, Dr. Russell was a son of Green and Nancy Spillman Rus sell. He spent his entire life In Yadkin county and was a prac ticing physician for over 50 years, retiring four years ago when his health failed. Dr. Russell was educated at the old Center Academy and was graduated from the Nash ville School of Science, Nash ville, Tenn., and^ John Hopkins university at Baltimore, Md. He was married to Miss Min nie Vestal, who died In 1901. He was a member of Yadkin lodge 162, A. P. and A, M. Surviving are one daughter, Mrs. Guy Hoots of East Bend, Route 2; one son, C. Russell of Yadklnvllle, Route 2, and four grandchildren. Yadkin Deserter Nabbed By M. P. Paul Southard, private In the United States army, was ar rested on the charge of deser tion by local deputies and mem bers of the military police last Saturday. Southard was sawing wood In the town of Yadklnvllle when the arrest was made. He is reported to have been absent without leave from the army for about a month. He Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Emory Southard of Knobs town ship. He had been stationed In a Florida camp. Sheriff Inscore, In reporting the arrest, said that his force Is now on the lookout for two other Yadkin men who have deserted the army. truth that had led the great Galilean throng to the moun tainside, and so far engrossed them that they forgot their hunger. There Is a hunger and thirst of the spirit that must be fed. A Small Boy’s Part Greatest of all Christ's mir acles was the feeding of the five thousand. The story Is a color ful one. There were crowds so intent upon listening to the new Teacher that they forgot to eat. As evening drew on the disciples began to worry about the situa tion. Andrew, who was the noticing type', had spotted a small boy with his lunch yet un tasted. (Imagine the absorbing nature of the occasion that could keep a small boy from food.) With heaven's own orderli ness, Jesus bade His followers seat the host. Then He took the boy’s small packet of food, and, after giving thanks, as Chris tians do at meal time, He di vided the ever-multiplying food: for It Is still the nature of Christ to erilarge our llttles, to make lowly lives great, to Increase consecrated service.

Suggests Stop Light Here Be Abandoned Robert S. McNeill, local attor ney, suggests that the stop light on the public square be discon tinued to save gasoline. His let ter to The Enterprise on the subject says; "Now that all motorists in the 17 states along the Atlantic sea board are required to save gaso line, and since reccnt O. P. A. regulations curtailing the con sumption of gas have reduced motor vehicular travel to an almost Irreducible minimum, • would it not be sen.slble and in line with our common war effort to discontinue the use of the stop-light on the public square? "Other town.s in the state, notably North Wllko.sboro, in the Interest of sasollno conser vation, have abollshecl for the time being the use of stop lights at street ^ Intersections. Why should not Mocksvlile do ' likewise? With no traffic in sight motorists are now required to stop ‘on red’ until the green light flashes on, thereby wasting daily many gallons of fuel that is so badly needed for our armed forces."

Rich, 85, one of Dlvle county’s best Isnown sons, died last Monday morning at 1 a. m. at Miami Beach, Fla., where he was spending the wln- A te r. He had been 111 a week with ^W bronchial pneumonia. The funeral was held at the home of the sole immediate survivor, Mrs. H. T. Brenegar, of Mocksvllle, at 11 o’clock Wednesday morning. Final rites were conducted by the pastors of three local churches: the Rev. W. C. Cooper, the Rev. E. W. Turner, and the Rev. A. L. Aycock. Interment was in «the family plot in Rose cemetery here. Active pallbearers were D. Q. Grubbs, O. R. Horn, O. N. Ward, P. J. Johnson, E. E. Hunt and B. Y. Boyles. Honorary pallbear ers Included members of the local American Legion post and members of the town board, both present and former. Mr. Rich was born in Davie county November 17, 1857, the second child of the late Calvin U. Rich and Betty Williams Rich. His wife, the former Mrs. ^ Emily Hanes, of Wilmington, P Del, died 20 years ago. Mr. Rich attended private achool under Prof. Richard Ster ling, old Trinity college in Ran dolph county in 1874-75, and finished his training at the Uni versity of North Carolina. The following four years he taught school in Scotland county near Laurinburg, then came to Cal lahan township, Davie county, and taught two years. At the age of 26 he attended Eaton and Burnette’s Business college In Baltimore, Md., graduating in 1883. From there he went to Wil mington, Del., and was with the Pennsylvania railroad for 23 years doing clerical work. On June 20, 1907, his wedding day, he resigned his position with the railroad and went to Philadelphia, where he entered the real estate business, remain ing there until the death of his wife in 1924, when he retired and returned to Mocksville. ^ Since most of that time Mr. " Rich spent the winters in Flor ida to safeguard his health, coming home In the spring to his residence here on North Main street, In addition to the substantial competence he acquired, par ticularly In Philadelphia real estate, before he retired, Mr, Rich inherited a considerable amount from his brother, the late Edwin Dee Rich, who was treasurer of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. Mr. Rich donated 45 acres in North Mocksvllle to the city as a public park which bears his name, after he had Improved and beautified the surround ings.

In discussing the past year’s operations, it was brought out clearly that it was a good year for the farmers and mostly resulted from the in creased war demands of agricul tural commodities, as well as the increased buying power due to higher wages. However, the group did not fail to see that along with the increased de mands and good prices that they were, helped by having a good growing season for most all crops. These tenant purchase farm ers did much to aid in the war efTort In 1942 by raising most all of their food and feed, can ning adequately for . home use, increasing milk, poultry and hog production and on the average repaid more than twice the amount due on their farm loans. This is in line with the presi dent’s recommendation in pay ing debts as soon as possible and in accordance with farm security instructions which per mit a borrower to repay more in good years and less In lean years and Is known as a variable re payment plan. Several of the TP borrowers are now as much as 2-3 years ahead of schedule, thus they are prepared for crop failures or lower prices. An aver age of 19.8 per cent ot the gross cash income of these borrowers was applied on their farm In debtedness. Much time was spent in plan ning to make their farms pro duce war crops and essential livestock and livestock products to capacity in 1943, thus follow ing, in so far as possible, thè recommendation made by the secretary of agriculture for full mobilization of each farm in thè United States for 1943. An interesting high light of the meeting was the good cafeteria-style luncheon served under the supervision of Miss Jeannette Curent, home man agement supervisor, with the as sistance of the families, and using only those foods raised on the farms In Davie county.« Ceiling Put On Mixed Feeds Prices Now, for the first time, OPA has placed mixed feeds used for poultry and livestock under price control. For wholesalers and retailers of mixed feeds this means that their ceilings are de termined by the addition of specified dollar mark-ups to list prices. The feed price action was taken as a round-about way of lessenin gthe pressure against celllngs on such vital cost-of-living Items as milk, butter, cheese, eggs and many meats. WEATHER After three days of summer weather when the temperature reached between 70 and 80, It turned off cold and drizzly on Wednesday. President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill, In the most unprecedented and momentous meeting of the century, have reached “complete agreement” on war plans for 1943 designed to bring about the ‘‘unconditional sur render” of Germany, Italy and Japan. Defying every tradition, the president of the United States flew across 5,000 miles of the Atlantic ocean for a ten-day meeting with Winston Churchill at Casablanca in North Africa which saw the leaders of the two nations bring Oen. Charles de Qaulle and Oen. Henri Qiraud to gether for the first time in a little villa just outside the city. Virtually the entire war staffs of both nations partici pated in day and night'discussions which ended Sunday afternoon with a press conference before a group of war correspondents flown secretly from -Allied headquarters halfway aci’o.ss North Africa. . , These are the high spots of the conference, which Roosevelt and Churchill agreed was unpreced/ented in his tory and may decide the fate of the world for generations to come: AGREE ON PLANS 1—The leaders of America and Britain, both military and civil, have agreed on a war plan for 1943 designed tc maintab the initiative in every, theatre of the war; 2—Churchill and Roosevelt agreed that peace can come only through “unconditional surrender” of Germany, Italy and Japan; 3—Generals Giraud and De Gaulle, meeting for the first time under sponsorship of the president and prime min ister ,are negotiating for a united French movement de signed to put French armies, a navy and an air force again into the field against the Axis; 4—Premier Joseph Stalin of Russia was kept informed of the results of the conferences. In fact, Churchill and Roosevelt offered to meet Stalin “very much farther to the east,” but the Russian chief was unable to leave the USSR, due to the need of his directing the present Red army offen sives. The president and prime minister also hav^ been in communication with Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and “have apprised him of the measures which they are taking to assist him in China’s magnificent and unrelaxlng struggle for the common cause.’ 5—Maximum material aid to Russia and China will be one of the prime alms of the United States and Britain. F. R. VISITS TROOPS 6—Roosevelt visited American troops in the field In North Africa, the first American president to visit an active war theatre since Abraham Lincoln., The meetings were held in a closely-guarded, barbed- wlre surroimded Inclosure at a hotel in Casablanca under the greatest secrecy. Prime Minister Churchill arrived for the meeting first. When President Roosevelt arrived by plane a few hours later, he dispatched Harry Hopkins to the Churchill villa, and the prime minister immediately came to start the meetings. The first began at 7 o’clock in the evening of January 14 and lasted until 3 o’clock the next evening. President Roosevelt met correspondents In the garden of his villa Sunday afternoon.

GIVES FARMERS ADVICE ON KUDZU PLANTING I'armers.who have been most successful in establishing kudzu have found that through land preparation well in advance of planting helped to get good stands, says O. W. McClellan, work unit conservationist of the Middle Yadkin soil conservation district. Land prepared in the fall or early winter was well settled when the plants were set out, an Important factor in getting good results with this fast- growing plant. ^ Xn preparing land the conser vationist recommends plowing deep furrows as feet apart and applying one to twa tons of manure and 200 pounds of miper-phosphate per acre in the furrows. Then throw additional furrows to the row to form a broad, flat bed, approximately ten feet wide, and allow to set tle until planting time. If the beds have not sbttled sufficiently by then, it will be necessary to harrow, roll, or otherwise Arm the ground to produce a firm bed. Plants set out in loose fresh soil, often dry out and die. With an ever Increasing em phasis on the production of food crops, the demand for kudzu planting stock by Davie county farmers is expected to exceed that of any previous year. Add ed to that is the possibility that the supply of plants may be limited. For these reasons, Mr. McClellan says, it is Important to take every precaution to see that plants set out this winter survive. SEED The 1942 production of winter cover crop seed, including Aust rian winter' peas, vetch, crimsoil clover, and rye grass, totaled 261,630,000 pounds, as compared with 124,040,000 pounds in 1041.

Mc Crary, acting chairman of the state highway and public works commission, looks on as the governor flres the charge. Broughton said the state would sell the lime to farm ers at $1.25 per ton. This is the second mine in the state, owned by the state highway commission, which is turning out agricultural lime to aid of farmers of North Carolina. OfTlcial opening of the mine was followed by a banquet given In honor of the gover nor by civic clubs of Elkin. The banquet was attended by many civic and farm leaders from Yadkin as well as ad joining counties. HIGHWAY COMMISSION OPENS YADKIN COUNTY LIME MINE Elkin—Oovernur J. Melville Broughton, January 22, set off ^ n e a rly 400 sticks of dynamite, V w hlch ofllclally reopened the century-old, state owned Yad- ., kin county lime mine at Lime- rock. With a deafening report, which echoed back from the heights of Pilot Mountain, many hundred tons of lime rock fell )rom the newly opened face of the old mine onto the floor be low. Rocks from the blast hurtled far out into the muddy Yadkin river several hundred yards away. 1 / Attending the opening cere mony, in addition to the gover nor, were many other state of ficials, Including D. B. Mc Crary, acting chairman of the state highway and public works commission. In an address, following a banquet sponsored by Elkin civic clubs, Governor Broughton announced that cost of the llnie to farmers would be $1.26 per ton. This price will cut costs of lime for Wilkes, Surry and Yad kin county farmers by more than half. Broughton pointed out that possibly the price could later be reduced, should the state high way commission And that pro duction costs would permit. In his address, aimed directly at the more than 250 farmers of the section attending, he pointed out that their part In the war effort was as Important as the men who were actually on the fighting front or‘those manu facturing war materials. The governor lauded the ef forts of the three members of the lime committee, H. F. Laf- fobn, 3. W. L. Benson and W. M. Allen, who had untiringly fought for the reopening of the mine. Highway Commission Chair man D. B. McCrary placed credit for opening of the mine with this committee, as well as with the governor and former Highway Chairman Ben Prince, now a major in the U. S. army. McCrary expressed the hope that the mine would live up to all the expectations of local people. Dean I. O. Schaub, head of the State college extension serv ice, also pointed out to the farm ers their Important roll in the war effort and urged all to take advantage of every foot of land they owned and plant vegetables for the next year. He also point ed out the coming meat short ages, which could be aided through the enlargement of the cattle program. Latest analysis of a limestone sample crushed from the mine showed a calcium carbonate content of 82.03 and a mag nesium part of 1.51, or a total analysis of 83.54. An earlier an alysis made on October 30, 1942, showed a total of 95.31 per cent. The mine will begin operation immediately and the state high way commission already has crushing equipment set up near the quarry. The work will be under the Immediate supervision of district engineer, C. G. Ash by, working under Division En gineer Zeb Stewart. Lime from the mine was used for agricultural purposes as early as 1850, but no mining has been done since high waters swept the crushing plant away in 1916. The mine has been owned by the state highway commission for about five years KAPPA Mr. and Mrs. Fred Cartner spent Sunday afternoon with Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Dwlgglns. Mrs. F. W.

ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, JANUARY 29,1943 THE MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE Published Every Friday at Mocksville, North Carolina O. C. McQUAGE .................................................. Publisher SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $2.00 Per Year Inside of Davie County—$2.50 Per Year Outside of Dttvle County. Strictly Payable In Advance. Entered at the Foal Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 THE PRESS AWARDS We extend our congratulations to three of our neigh bors in winning coveted prizes of the North Carolina Press Association just announced: Harvey LalToon of the Elkin Tribune for the best community service; Ed Anderson of the Alleghany News, Sparta, and Transylvania Times, Bre vard, for a double-barreled win with these two papers for general excellence; Colonel Santford Martin, editor of the Winston-Salem Journal-Sentinel, for the best editorial. Mr. LalToon did an exemplary piece of work for his community in succeeding to get the state open the lime mine in Yadkin county for the farmers of this section. Only last week the Governor formally opened this mine and told some 400 farmers of its significance. In our opinion the greatest value of Mr. Lafloon’s work was his ability to se cure the steadfast determination of citizens of his section to leave no stone unturned until they were fully satisfied whether or not it was feasible for the state to open the mine. It was an uphill battle that met many obstacles in the beginning and those less stout-hearted would have quit. iMr. Lafloon’s newspaper, however, kept banging away at the objections until they were overcome.,Needless to say, however, the newspaper could not have accomplished its purpose had it not been for the hard work, particularly that of the lime mine committee of which Mr. LaiToon was a member, that the citizens did to convince the state au thorities of the economic practicability of the project. It was a fine case of the use of printers ink in serving the com xnunity. Mr. Anderson bagged two capital prizes—an accom- jplishment in which he and his readers should take much pride. An immediate past president of the N. C. Press As sociation, Ed Is a first flight newspaper man. Ably assisted by his wife, Stella, who Is a highly competent newspaper woman in her own right, the Andersons are an outstand ing example of the able newspaper folks in the weekly field in this state. A well-deserved orchid to each! Colonl Martin’s editorial entitled "The Last Sacrifice” is being reproduced In this issue of the paper. It speaks lor Itself. Interlarded with a pungent resume of what we are fighting for, is a plea to the state legislature to give the school children a full term even in wartimes. We can only hang our heads in sorrow of the realization that too many people still would rather use their children to help make a livelihood rather than sacrifice for their future opportunity. Written by Santford Martin, this editorial in the Win ston-Salem Journal won the $100 best editorial prize of the N. C. Press Association last year. THE LAST SACRIFICE The Legislature of this State soon will face a problem which no other North Caroltoa General Assembly ever has been called upon to f^e. It will have a thirty-one-million' dollar surplus on its hands. I. In dealing with this problem, there are some things we hope it will not forget. One of these Is that the people of North Carolina are in dead earnest about this war. They know that this is not just another war. They know that we could have lost any other war which we ever have fought, since the Revolution of 1776, and still could have made a reasonable peace with our enemies and retained our in dependence as a nation. But this war is difTrent. If we lose this war, the United States will be taken over by the- Germans and Japanese, ,iust as the Nazis have taken over Poland, Prance and other European countries which they have conquered, and just as the Japanese war lords have taken control of the Philip pines and other territory which their armies have overrun. We won’t be able to make a reasonable peace with a victorious Hitler and Hirohito. If we lose this war, we and our children will be slaves working for the "master races" of Europe and Asia. This is a war for survival. Either we win or we die. The people of North Carolina believe in the American way of life strongly enpugh to suffer for it, and, if neces sary, even to die for it. Unfortunately, there seems to be confusion in sòme quarters over what the American way of life really is. Some say it is the New Deal; others think it is the Old Deal. A vast majority of the people of North Carolina are Democrats. They have voted overwhelmingly for the New Deal in three Presidential elections. But they know that the American way of life for which we are fighting now Is neither the New Deal nor the Old Deal It Is the right of the people to have either or neither. If they desire. . They know that the American way of life is not a static A JOKE A DAY Г'1 WOULONT т к ASOVTHER UNLESSI coiAO smr бометмыб good. A N O .O H В О У . IS T H IS S O O D ! ’* economic, social and political system. It Is the freedom of the people to change things by orderly processes. It means the rule of the majority and full respect for the rights of minorities. It does not mean that the ma jority always will be right, but it does mean that the ma jority always shall be free, even to make mistakes. It does not guarantee happiness, but It does guaran tee freedom to pursue happiness along any road where men believe happiness may be found. It means the right of every individual to worship or not to worship God as his own conscience may dictate. It does not recognize caste or class, or that the acci dent of birth gives any man or group or race the right to rule other men. It recognizes the dignity of personality and man as a free moral agent, and under it has thrived for. more than a century and a half the only government In the world which ever has dared officially to proclaim that all men are created equal. Because they are determined to retain these great freedoms, guaranteed to them by. the Bill of Rights, the people of North Carolina are willing to make every sacri- Ice necessary to win this war. If the Legislature keeps faith with our people, the first bill passed by it will be one to require that most of the huge surplus in the State Treasury shall be invested In United Si'ates War Bonds. But while the Legislature is thus contributing to vic tory on our battle fronts, it should not forget the home front. If our democracy Is to survive, there is a mighty army on our home soil, no less than on foreign soil, which must be supported. This army is composed of over 23,000 teachers and more than a million children in our public schools. If we fail to equip this army for the forward march on the home front, there can be no lasting victory for democracy in North Carolina on any front. It is as true today as when James Madison said it, that— "A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring It is but a prologue to a farce or iragedy, or perhaps both. People who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives us.” Thè State’s biggest business Is the school business. The best investment North Carolina ever has made is its in vestment in that business. We believe in economy in government. But failure to maintain an adequate public school system is not economy. It is wanton waste of our most precious assets. Certainly no one can claim that our State school sys tem is adequate, so long as North Carolina teachers are among the poorest paid in the nation, and so long as our children have a shorter school term than the children of 41 other states enjoy. Length of the school term is vital. Educational authori ties are agreed that the most important single thing in a school program is the number of days in school. The plant and equipment, the teachers, the curriculum and every thing connected with the school may be of the highest type, but if the child is not there, these are of no avail. We cannot even claim to have democracy in educa tion, when three-fourths of the children of our Common wealth are denied the advantages of a nine months school term which the other one-fourth enjoy. If democracy means anything, it means equality of opportunity. Charles B. Aycock, North Carolina’s greatest Democratic leader of the last half century, put it right thirty years ago: “Equal I That is the word,’ he said. "On that word plant myself and my party—the equal right of every child born on earth to have the opportunity to burgeon out all that there is within him.” If "equal” was the word then, it ought to be the word now. There are a thoцsand sacrlfice.s we should make to win this war before we place our little children on the altar. The last sacrifice should be the public schools. Two Sunestions A cleric owned a farm, and endeavored to practice rigid economy in its operation. One day, taking a stroll, he saw his ploughman sitting idle on the handle of his plough, while the horses took a needed rest. The sight rather shocked the good clerlc-farmer's sense of economy. He was paying the man 25 cents an hour, so he said gently, but reproachfully, "Jotui, would n’t it be a good plan for you to have a pair of shears and be trimming these bushes while the horses are resting?" John returned the minister’s gaze and answered: "And might I suggest that you take a bowl of potatoes Into the pulpit and peel ’em during the anthem?’ NUTRITION CLASSES TO BE OFFERED BY COOLEEMEE RED CROSS AND OCD visitor: "So you have been In the sanatorium five years.” Patient: “Yes, oil and on.” Visitors: "OH and on what?” Patient: "The bed." A clerk was helping a colored employe to All out an applica tion for a civil service examina tion. “Do you belong,” asked the clerk, "to the Nazi Bund or to any political party that plans to overthrow the government?” "Yessuh,” said the Negro. "Which one?" asked the clerk, taken back by the applicant’s placid candor. “De Republican," was the earnest reply. “You can never talk to that patient,” said the nurse to the doctor as they left a room on the women’s ward, “without her giving you a full recital of her ailments.” "Yes,” said the doctor, “you might almost call It an organ recital." In the sanatorium flrst-ald class the question of fainting came up. The instructor ex plained to the class t^hat the cause of fainting was primarily a fault of circulation and that it could be prevented by getting the head lower than the heart. “For instance,” he said, “if you feel faint, and don’t want to call attention to it, just lean over and tie your shoe lace over again." A woman In the front raised her hand. "What sort of knot should be used?” she asked. Preaching Mission To Be Held At Fork February 11, 12, 13, 14 special services promoting the nation wide preaching mission of the Episcopal church will be held at Ascension church. Fork. The preacher will be the Rev. Edwin B. Jeflress of Mount Airy. The Rev. Mp. Jeflress is the son of Edwin B.

Mr. JeiTress Is a graduate of the school of commerce of the Uni versity of North Carolina, and of the General Theological semi nary of the Episcopal church In New York city. For the past six summers he has been on the Stan at Vade Mecum—a sum mer conference of the Episcopal church. There will be services each night at 7:30, Sunday morning at 11, and other mornings at 10. LIVESTOCK The addition of new registered herd sires, together with those already on hand, is expected to result in definite Improvement in the Harnett county livestock work. Mrs. Gordon Tomlinson left Wed nesday for Miami Beach, Florida to visit her husband. The Red Oross war fund drive will begin March l.-T. 0. Pegram has accepted the chairmanship of the local fund drive and plans are under way for the ap pointment of committees to serve with Mr. Pegram. It Is more important than ever that everyone make every effort to support the Red Cross this year. With the cooperation of the OCD the Red Cross will offer in the near future classes in nu trition. These classes will be conducted with the rationing system In mind and the best use of the available foods and con serving those which are scare. The classes will be taught by Miss Inez Hubbard and classes will be limited to 20 members, which will meet twice a week for two hours for a period of 20 hours.' A committee from the Woman’s club has been ap pointed to arrange for the classes and a meeting place Watch this paper closely for further announcement of classes. The present work at the Red Cross production room has nearly been completed. Anyone still having Red Cross overalls out please bring them In either Tuesday or Thursday between the hours of 3 and S In the aft ernoon or between 7 and 9 at night. A new shipment of sew ing materials is expected in this week and it is hoped that a number will come in to sew. Even if you can’t sew come in to inspect the sewing rooms and see the work in progress. Growers Confused On New Varieties Recent correspodence from North Carolina farmers to the Extension plant pathologist at N. C. State College has indicated a general confusion regarding the disease-resistant flue-cured varieties of tdbacco. K. J. Shaw and T. E. Smith, associate plant pathologist of the Experimental Station, report that some growers apparently think the varieties resistant to all disease Instead of to aspeclfic disease. Varieties resistant to black root rot and blackshank, two of the Important tobacco diseases, were made available recently to farmers after years of experi mental work. The "400” variety was devel oped in experiments located near Reidsville and Is resistant to black root rot, a disease atacklngl State College Hints For Farm Homemakers By RtlTH CURRENT (N.

For fish on Monday, Tuesday, Wed nesday or the other days of the week is one of the ways in which the meal-planner who knows her nutrition can help in the government’r request for conservation of meat. Fish, like meat, contains almost all the nutritive elements. Protein, for building . strong muscles and firm body tissues, is found In abundance in fish. And nutritionists say it is easily assimilated, too. Many minerals are found in fish. One of the most important ones Is lodlneA valuable in helping to prevent diseases of the thyroid gland, es pecially goiter. Iodine Is not found In many foods. Phos phorous fpr tissues and muscle building, calcium for bones and teeth are found in abundance in shell fish. The army is feeding fish to the soldiers. It is a good health insurance food. It should be eaten two or more times each week. But keep your eye on your pocketbook when you go to the market. Select a kind that is in season and keep in mind, too, that the more flavorful and nutritious varieties often have the lower price tags on them. The housewives who are strug gling with their food budget should try serving fish more often. the smaller roots and causing a slow, uneven, and stunted grow th of the above-ground parta. a Blackshank resistant s tra in * 1, 2, 3, and 4 were developed in experiments near Winston-Salem and have been released for com mercial use for the first time this year. They are resistant only to blackshank, a disease that attacks the roots and stalks and causes death rather rapidly. Growers should remember that these varieties are resistant only to specific diseases. In other words, if a farmer planted the "400” variety, he would not get resistance to Granville wilt, root rot,or soreskin, only black root rot. Likewise, the other new va riety strains are resistant only to blackshank. * BVT WAR BOND, STAMn O U R D E M O C R A C Y - FRIDAY, JANUARY 20,1943 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

SOME RESTRICTIONS ON FARM MACHINERY ARE REMOVED Raleigh— Several restrictionsl' on the manufacture and distri bution of farm machinery and equipment were modified today by WPB. The amendment does away with the three months restric tion on the distributor’s inven tory of repair parts and elimi nates the necessity of his filing a "certificate for emergency or der” to obtain repair parts. Certain provisions in the original order are changed as they apply to silos so that the weight of critical materials necessary for theii’ construc tion, rather than the number of units constructed, govern the quota. At the same time quota percentages of silo construction is Increased from 12 to 16 per cent. Water pump cylinders are de fined as repair parts in the amended order, thus permitting the cylinders to come within the 130 per cent quota for re pair parts. This change Is made because cylinders are not com plete mechanical devices in and of themselves but merely func tional parts of a water system. Among other less important changes in the order as amend ed are the following: "Grain bins and corn cribs, when made from material other than steel” are excluded from the definition of "farm machin ery and equipment,” and hence are no longer within this order. Harness hardware is added to horseshoes, muleshoes and horsesroe nails, as an item ex cluded from the restrictions limiting them to use on farms. Tractor mounted field culti vators, tillers and tooth weed- ers are added to Schedule A. The amended order separates combination stacker -loaders from the stationary type of stacker and assigns 75 per cent to Class C producers of combi nation stacker-loaders. Milk palls and strainers are added to schedule A as bracket ed Items and assigned 36 per cent and 75 per cent quotas re spectively to Class B and Class C producers, SCARCE Lenoir County farmers have indicated that the supply of to bacco seed this year is scarce, many loosing seed the had in tended to save either because of wet weather or the drought.

Weaver, State college horticulturist, says the seed should be planted in a cold- frame at once. Many gradeners who seed early in the spring wonder why their lettuce will not head, not knowing that the vegetable will not head after the weather gets warm. In se curing seed, the gardener should be sure to specify Imperial No, 44, Imperial No, 847, New York No, 515, or one of the older rec ognized standard heading va rieties. Plant the seed thinly In a well-prepared coldframe and take good care of the plants, As lioon as they tire large enough, they should be .set In a rich well-prepared bed, Q. Where may edible soybean seed be sold? A. J. A. Rigney. State college agronomist, says many farmers have written him a.sklng where they might obtain edible soy bean seed. To get such growers In contact with those having the seed for sale, he has agreed to let his office act as clearing house. Farmers with seed for sale and those wishing to buy seed should write to J. A. Rig ney, State College Station, Ra leigh. Q. What is North Carolina’s egg production goal for 1943 A. Under the food production program, North Carolina has been asked to produce 79,204,000 dozen eggs this year. This com pares with a total of around 70,000,000 dozen produced in 1942. Actually the 1942 goal was only 65,120,00 dozen. C. P. Par rish, poultry extension special ist, says farmers must give their poultry the very best óf care In order to produce this year’s re quirements. FAVORABLE The year 1943 has opened with many conditions favorable for continued heavy production of agricultural products, according to the U. S. Department of Ag riculture. For All Kindi of Job Printlnf -C all The Bnterprbt. MORE ABOUT WAR NEWS potatoes, soybeans, grain sorghums, peanuts, flax and dried peas—the crops on which subsidy payments will be made. Soybean growers will get $15 an acre subsidy for each acre they plant in excess of 90 per cent of their new goal not to exceed 110 per cent. On peanuts the rate on the same acreage percentages will b $30 an acre, $8 an acre on grain sorghums, $10 an acre on flax, $16 an acre on dried peas. 50 cents a bushel on sweet potatoes on the normal yield of each acre planted between 90 and 110 per cent of the goal. RUSSIA CONTINIIES TO GAIN Stalin said that more than 200,000 Axis c«ptlve> hftd been taken In two months, 102 enemy dlvielons routed, 13,• ООО guns and other eqtiipment seized in an advance of 245 miles. In an order of the day Stalin ordered the Russian troops to drive the invaders out of "our motherland.” LEND-LEASE tO RUSSIA In 15 months of Lend-Lease aid to Russia the U. S. has shipped about 2,600 plañes, 3,200 tanks and 81.000 military vehicles for Russian use against the Axis. The United Kingdom, also on a Lend-Lease basis, has supplied Russia with more than 2,600 tanks and more than 2,000 planes. Reporting on the United Nations aid to the Soviet Union, Lend-Lease Administrator Stettinius said we have shipped more planes and tanks to the U. S. S, R. than to any other country since the beginning of the Lend-Lease program, and since sufficient supplies of food are necessary to Soviet army success as are planes and tanks, we are now sending more food to Russia than to the United King dom. Although the Lend-Lease program began in March of 1941, aid to Russia did not begin until October, 1941. After a slow start, shipments began to increase and are still increasing, in spite of shipping shortages and enemy attacks along the supply routes. The weapons that got through from the U. S. to Russia were only a trifle compared to Russian production, but at the same timé American machines and parts, sent to replace vital elements lost when Russian industries moved to safety behind the Urals, were helping Russian factories to keep operating. Thus American products have had a part in the flght these corageous people are waging against our common enemies—in the great drive Westward, the battles that have destroyed quantities of Axis equipment and supplies and killed more Germans than all the United Nations put together. But, thé OWI points out, Lend-Lease is doing a job all over the world. The $7,496,000,in good transferred and services rendered by the U. S. up to the end of last November strengthened the fronts from Russia to Australia. Africa, for example, has proved that Lend-Lease , and flghting the war are the same thing. The supplies, installations and equipment brought in with Lend-Lease funds, the ports built up along the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, the Airfields, Docks, Warehouses, assembly and repair shops, pipelines, communications and railroads built with Lend-Lease aid—these are the facilities and bases now beng used by U. S. forces to fight the war in Tunisia, in the Middle East, and all the way to China. « Under, a sweeping decentralization program, the Nat ional War Labor Board is establishing 12 regional War Labor Boards, with full authority to make final decisions in labor disputes and in voluntary wage and salary ad justment eases. Each of the regional boards will be set up on the NWLB tripartite system of public, employer and labor representatives. William Davis, Chairman of the NWLB, said that under this plan wage stabilization will be done primarily in the field with the NWLB in Wash ington sitting as a sort of supreme court selecting its own cases for decision by orders for review. Only policy defining cases will be brought to the National Board. In October, 1941, the NWLB was given the task of stab ilizing wages and salaries, of assuming jurisdiction over the wage and salary rates or roughly 31,000,000 employees of some 300,000 non-agricultural business enterprises, ranging from restaurants to huge war factories. The Boará found that between Januaryl941 and May 1942, when the President announced his seven-point anti Inflation program, the cost of living had gone up 15 per cent. During that time, about two-thirds of all manu facturing wages had also risen at least 15 per cent. There fore,in ruling on wage increases, the Board felt that those whose wages had already risen enough to cover the cost of living increase should not be granted further increases, but that all others were entitled to have their average straight-time rates brought up to a point 15 percent above the January 1941 level. BETTER PACIFIC NEWS Japanese pockets of resistance in the Sanananda Area of Papaun New Guinea all that is left, of the Japanese Papaun Army of 15,000 shock troops—are rapidly dissolv ing before American and Australian troops. The American position on Gaudalcanal has improved much in the past week, since the capture by U. S. troops of Mount Austen, last Japanese position dominating Hen derson Field, and the United Nations position in the Pa cific war is now more favorable than at any time since the Marines first landed on Gaudalcanal in August 1942. In cidentally although for several months the Marines have been operating jointly with army troops in the Solomons Area, most of the Marines have now been replaced by army personnel. Maj. Gen. Patch, U. S, Army, took command of American forces on Gaudalcanal, relieving Maj. Gen. Alexander A. Vandergrift, U. S. Marine Corps. During the five-day period of January 13 to 17 our forces killed ^over 1,000 Japanese in various actions on Gaudalcanal. Even in the air, Japanese strength in the eolomons is steadily growing weaker. Maj. Gen. Millard Harmon, Commander of allied air and ground troops in New Zealand, pointing to'the enemy’s dwindling supplies of all categories and lack ôf pilots said the Japanese are definitely short in nweting the requlremtnts of their air I. and vhi(A forces. SIZE OF ARMED FORCES According to Under Secretary of War Patterson, the size of the armed forces is a military problem that shoul|| be left to the military leaders to workout. Citing President Roosevelt’s figure of 7% million in the army of 1944 and estimates of more than 2 million in the Navy and Coast Guard, Mr. Patterson said 10 million men in the Army and Navy is less than one out of every 13 of our population. Germany, has one out of every 10 under arms, Britain has one out of every 10, and Russia’s proportion is fully as high. “To say that we Americans cannot maintain one in thirteen—is a note of defeatism—we cannot leave the hard work of fighting to the British, the Russians and the Chinese. And a war like this one cannot be fought, certainly it cannot be won, without an army and navy of a size ad equate to the task,” LOANS FOR AGRICULTURE To help farmers increase production in 1943, Agri culture Secretary Wick^rd has made available through the Food Production Administration a new source of credit for the production of essential wartime food and fiber. Between $200,000.00 and $225,000,000 of additional funds will become immediately available at the county level, anjj the loans (shorttime loans at five percent interest), wl: will be made through the Regional Agricultural Ciredit Corporation, will be limited only by the amount needed, to do the production job. COST OF FOOD Although admitting that the farmer’s share of the consumer’s food dollar is now larger than it has been for many years, Mr. Wickard said the retail cost of food now represents the smallest share on record of the industrial worker’s income. According to data available for the first 11 months of 1942, the retail cost of food for the average industrial worker’s family amounted to 28 percent of the worker’s earnings, a record low in relation to in come, while the farmer’s share of the consumer’s food dollar averaged 53 percent, the largest share since 1920. FARM MANPOWER The War Manpower Commission’s Selective Service Bureau has liberalized the requirements for agricultural deferments, expected to keep many additional workers on the farms. The revised guide—approved by the Agri culture Department, the WMC, the farm organizations and other groups—provides that a local draft board may be justified in some cases in deferring an agricultural worker producing as little as eight war units of essential produc^ While emphasizing that the National objective Is stW a minimum per-worker production of 16 or more units, the new guide no longer considers 16 units a standard., WEEK END SPECIAL 2 5 » Off ON ALL LEATHER COATS HORSEHIDE AND CAPESKIN Mens, Womens, Childrens Heavy W inter Sw eaters WOOL AND PART WOOL Mens, Boys Wool Siiede and Wool SPORT COATS AND COATS JACKETS MENS DRESS PANTS WOOL AND PART WOOL PUNT BED CAm S GOOD GRADE, WIDE SELVAGE YARD, ... 4 c READY-MADE WITH EYELETS A-1 GRADE 3 and 5 yards Wide, YARD..............6 c W.
