Heads March of Dimes GEOROE B. HOBSON HOBSON HEADS POLIO DRIVE GQorge Hobson, Davie county agent, has been named director of Davie county’s 1948 March of Dimes. The appointment was made by Dr, Ralph McDonald, state chair man of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, upon the recommendation of E, C. Morris, county chairman.

Davie county’s quota for this year has been set at $1,240. This figure Is approximately the same as last year. This county has been very fortunate In that only a few cases of Infantile paralysis have occurred. Other surround ing counties have not been as fortunate. In spite of the fact that North Carolina raised more than half a million dollars for tills cause In the campaign last January, it has been nece.ssary for the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis to transfer over $200,000 to our state last year to meet the expenses ''for the care of Infantile paralysis patients who were stricken either In the 1044 epidemic, or during 1045, “It Is necessary that every one lend their support during the campaign In order to get sufficient funds to provide the necessary care for, the stricken children,” Hobson said.

M. Pennington, who was In charge of the program, stated that members had been Instru mental in helping to launch the $100,000 bond election. Friendlier personal relations, good food and promotion of the new furniture plant here were among the things cited by mem bers as helpful during the past year. Selection of definite communi ty projects In which they might aid was the main expression for 1046. Promotion of better schools and erection of a community clubhouse were two objectives mentioned.

The first six months of testing is over and the club is not found wanting In Its desire to serve the town and county. A solid foundation has been laid for community serv ice under the skillful, tactful, energetic hand of the pres ident, Kim Sheek. Happily, the club could not have chosen a more apt leader to weld the various personalities Into a group where the Individual has voluntarily poured his talent and energy into the pot of common good— and en joy doing so. Mr. Sheek has abundantly earned the meas ure of his success and members hold hitn in esteem and affection. It Is evident that members of the club do not wish It to be Just another organization for "fun and fellowship.” They know that If the club thrives, It must serve. They . want It to thrive and they want to do what they can for their community. We predict that 1946 will see some outstanding community developments which they will fos ter.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers. Are you getting your money’s worth In cleaning powder and soap? Are you putting enough soap In your washing machine to get the clothes clean 'and sparkling, but not more than Is needed? Home management spe cialists say It takes about two Inches of standing suds.to get a load of clothes clean In the washing machine. A bit of ex perimenting with the measuring cup will show you how much soap It takes to make two Inches of suds. Every home laundress knows that soap makes suds more quickly, if it Is shaved, grated or pulverized. If your retail store is out of soap flakes or powders, you can make your own from bars of laundry soap, which Is generally easier to find. Be sure the soap is well dried, cut It into pieces and run It'through the meat grinder. Let it dry well, then pulverize. You may wish to use a grater or slaw cutter to make flakes or chips. This may also serve as a thrifty way to use up small left-over bits of bar soap.

McCLELLAN Milton Call of Mocksvllle fol lowed the recommendations of the Middle Yadkin District on renovating a one-acre pasture of his in the spring of 1044. He had a rather poor sod and a good bit of broom sedge before treating. He applied lime and 600 pounds of 2-12-6 fertilizer and seeded on top without seedbed preparation a mixture of orchard, red top, Dallls grass and White Dutch Clover. Mr. Call got considerable re sponse to the above treatment in 1944, but during 1945 the re sults were even greater. He fed a nice heifer on this one acre and during the drouth there was enough of dry grass hay to feed the young cow. This is proof that good pastures pay well. George Hobson, county agent, and the Soil Conservation Serv ice are urging farmers stronger than ever to have better pas tures. Farmers aré invited to talk to Mr. Call or one of the above agencies. Kenneth Hoots near Advance sowed twenty pounds of Ladino Clover, whltih is arnew glahf strain of White Dutch clover, along with a mixture of grasses last fall.’ He got an unusual stand"of this mixture and the acreage he has sown will prove the adapt ability of this splendid mixture on sandy land.

IS IT SEEKING FACTS-OR NEW ECONOMIC POWER? DOES ITW ANTTOKNOW THINGS-OR RUN THINGS? THESE QUESTIONS CONCERN YOU AS WELL AS GENERAL MOTORS. For years the facts about General Motors have been made public. In spite of this, the UAW-CIO demands a chance to look at our books, with the hint that we could meet Union de* mands “if the truth were really known.” W e have firmly declined to recognize this as a basis for bargaining: 1 The Full Facts are Published How much General Motors takes in each year— how much it pays employes— how much it pays to stockholders— how much it pays in taxes— how much net profit we make—and Something New has been Added The obvious fact is that the UAW-CIO has gone beyond its rights under the law— and is reaching not for information but for new power— not for a look at past figures, but for the power to sit in on forecasting and planning the future. A “look at the books” is a clever catch phrase intended as an opening wedge whereby Unions hope to prj^ their way into the whole field of management. It leads surely to the day when Union bosses, under threat of strike, will demand the right to tell what we can make, when we can make it, where we can make it, and how much we must charge you— all with an eye on what labor can take out of the business, ratl;;ier than on the value that goes into the product. many other facts ai« plainly stated In annual reports and quarterly reports. These are broadcast to 425,000 stockholders from coast to coast— sent to newspapers and libraries. Additional copies are free for the asking. All Figures are Thoroughly Checked Every General Motors annual statement is audited by out side auditors. Similar figures are filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission. Does the UAW-CIO honestly believe that General Motors would or could deceive these experts? Basis of Collective. Bargaining is Defined The Wagner Act lays down the rules for collective bargain ing. These cover such areas as rates of pay, hours of work, working conditions. « No mention is made of earnings, prices, sales volume, taxes and the like. These are recognized as the problems of man< agement. ' 5.This Threatens All Business If the Union can do this in the case of General Motors, it can do it to every business in this land of our& Is this just imagination? Union spokesmen have said, “The Union has stated time after time that this issue is bigger than just an ordinary wage argument, that it is bigger than the Corporation and bigger than the Union.” For I^abor Unions to use the monopolistic ppwer of their vast mem bership to extend the scope of wage negotiations to Include more than wages, hours and working conditions is the first step toward handing the management of business over to the Union Dosses. We therefore reject the idea of a “look at the books” not because we have anything to hide but because the idea itself hides a threat to GM, to all business, and to you, the public.

C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879. W RITE IT 1946 In the division of time we are now entering upon an other year., It will take us some time to get accustomed to writing It 1946, but soon the habit will be fixed. But we shall write something more than dates. Our age stands facing some of the greatest problems— and some of the greatest opportunities, ever offered to mankind. If last year we considered the problems of war to be terrible and taxing, we are beginning to realize that those were child’s play compared to the problems now facing us in this year of peace— at least the cessation of armed conflict. The problems facing us cannot be dismissed with wisecracks over the radio; we can’t escape them by going to the movies or the golf club; night clubs and plentifulr ness of liquor will not enable us to forget or drown the problems which face us. We must face them, or be des troyed by them. They will not be dismissed; they must "be solved by serious-minded, intelligent men and women. We are writing page after page of history. Even our failures to act write pages in the book now being made. Some of us will be living when the book is opened, and we shall see what we have written. This is indeed, a day of crisis. Choice and actions now will detemine the destiny of millions for many years to come. Each one of us Is doing a bit more than writing a new date—^we are writing some of the greatest of world history.

Lu- clen Truscott (front, left), com« mander of the American occupa« tlon sone In Germany, and Lt Gen. Walter BedeU-Smlth aa thexyttlM thacamp. ALLIES PROPOSE TO END CONCEPT OF GESTAPO RULE WITH JUSTICE The wreckage of Germany’s legal system which the Nazis left behind is less easily visible than the ruins of Berlin’s and Dresden’s bomb - torn houses. But it may be more dilTtcult to reawaken in the Germans a sense of, and confidence In, law than to rebuild the Reich’s cities. No legal system is perfect, and neither was that of the Weimar republic. Its main weakness, however, was not based in the wording of its statutes but in the reactionary and overnatlon- alistlc attitude of a large num ber of German Judges In pre- Hltler days. Still, up to Janu ary, 1933, the Individual was, except for some isolated cases, adequately protected against ar bitrary action of the authorities. With the Nazi rise to power the picture changed almost overnight. The secret state police — the dreaded Gestapo—was given the power to arrest and punish with out trial. The population of Germany was reclassifled in groups of full rights, minor rights, and no rights, according to the individ ual’s political views, racial char acteristics and religion. The Judges were authorteed to deviate from any written law whenever they felt—or were told by their superiors—that "the people’s sound instance” or “the interest of the German na tion” required it. A number of special tribunals was established, such as the People’s Court and all kinds of Honor Courts, These courts had their own rules of procedure which left the defendant not even the right to appeal the verdict. Battle Against taw In the eight years from Hit ler’s release from the Landsberg fortress to his appointment as reich chancellor, the Nazi lead ers had had time enough to draw up plans for the battle against the law. When they opened their campaign it was with a co-ordinated attack on three fronts. The three objectives on which the Nazis wene determined to lay their hands were the legis lature, the judiciary, and the German concept of right and wrong. Conquest of the legislature was the easiest step. The Reich stag was excluded from partici pation In the government by means of the Anabllng Act of March, 1933. Moreover, sii;ce all Reichstag deputies were party members, they could be relied upon to do Hitler’s bidding on the few occasions when they were allowed to cast their votes Practically all legislation enact ed under .the Nazi regime was initiated and drafted by the relch cabinet. Bench Resists It took somewhat longer to subdue the bench. Unreliable and undesirable elements in the judiciary were removed by means of the law for the restora tion of the professional civil service, issued April, 1933. Other decrees put an end to the Judges’ Independence from the administration, and political pressure and opportunism as well as the introduction of en tirely new concepts of law grad ually made the Judiciary a pli ant tool of the Nazi party. The final disintegration of what had been left from Ger many’s legal system of pre-Hit ler days took place in 1942. In April of that year Hitler had the Reichstag confer upon him "un limited dictatorial powers” and four months later he issued an order for the "vigorous admin istration of Justice empowering Reich Minister of Justice Dr. Otto Georg Thlerack to “devi ate from existing law.” ' From that moment on, condi tions In .Germany could only be described as "legalized lawless ness,” Jurists Controlled The appointment of unswerv ing Nazis to the posts of law teachers at the universities and the Influence of the party-con- the average shopper walks eleven miles a day, trolled Academy of German Law exercised their Influence on the younger generation of judges and attorneys. The League of German Na tional Socialist Jurists (BNSDJ) In which membership was com pulsory for every German law yer, helped keep the older gen eration of jurists In line. Official directives advising de fense lawyers that their duty was not to prove their clients’ Innocence, but "to reconcile them with the Judge’s verdict,” not only deprl/ed the defend ants of their last thred of legal protection but also destroyed in the lawyers any feeling of hold ing a position of 'public impor tance. The "defense reform” was just one of the many Nazi In novations in the legal sphere. While the "people’s sound in stinct,” "state requirements,” and the "community benefit” were made the basis of verdicts, a new criminal code, published In 1035, and some later decrees Introduced a number of new and baflllng concepts into jurisdic tion. The Nazis abolished the rule of “nulla poena sine lege” (there can be no punishment unless provided by law). They Intro- 4-H Club Gardeners Produce Much Food Every county In North Caro lina has its boys and girls grow ing 4-H gardens and the total number of gardens runs Into many thousands, which are con ducted under the supervision of the farm and home agents of the State college extension serv ice and its horticultural special ists. Rachel Sites, a member of the BalU Creek Senior 4-H club in Catawba county. Is only fourteen years old, but yet she presents a good example of what so many of her 4-H brothers and sisters in gardening are doing. This year Rachel won the vic tory garden contest In Catawba, sponsored by the Sears-Roebuck foundation, and came second in food preservation. She pro duced 60 bushels of vegetables, growing 11 different types, with snap beans, lima beans, and to matoes leading. Besides furnishing an abun dance of fresh vegetables for the family, Rachel canned 201 quarts of snap beans, lima beans, beets, corn, garden peas, and tomatoes. Miss Sara Smith, assistant home agent of the State college extension service for Catawba, says that Mr, and Mrs, Fred sites, the parents of Rachel, en couraged her in every way possi ble in her gardening work and points out that this Is one of the most important points in conducting 'successful 4-H ac tivities.

NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION Notice Is hereby given that the partnership heretofore existing between M, H, Murray and H, H.

LANIER l-ll-4tn duced the principle of joint re sponsibility for parents and children. They decreed that people could become guilty and liable to prosecution by their mere "Intention” to commit a crime; In cases of political crimes, punishment for the "criminal Intent” was execution. Antl-soclal feeling was declared a crime, and the, definition of the term was kept vague enough to charge every opponent or sus pected opponent of the regime with being antl-soclal. Other Innovations of the most far-reaching consequence were: The Imposing of protective cus tody on Innocent people or on political or "professional” crim inals who had served their sen tences: sterilization of- "crimi nals”; use of the Inmates of prisons and concentration camps for medical experiments; finally, the most terrible of all Nazi In novations—their theory that the value of an lndlvldual”s life was dependent upon that individu al’s race and that members of races declared “Inferior” by the Germans could be extermlnatd at will.

MCNAIR INCORPORATED Laurinburg, N. C. A Statement by the Erwin Mills Approximately 5,500 employees of The Erwin Cotton Mills have been out of work since October 8. Oh that date the Textile Workers Union of America, CIO, called the strike. The Erwin Mills was anxious for work to continue. The Union said no. Why? BecauM the Union wanted unsettled parts of a new contract written by an outsider— an arbitrator. That’s a most unusual suggestion. To let an outsider settle disagreements under the terms of a contract after it is signed is the custom in most union contracts. That’s what arbitration means in collective Itorgaining. That’s what we have been doing. That’s what we have agreed to con tinue doing. But to let an outsider write the terms of a contract itself is entirely different. For years Organized Labor and Manage- ■ ment generally have maintained that to let an outsider write the terms of a con tract itself is to forfeit their prime re- aponsibilities and obligations. Organized Labor and Management, in general, agree that the very roots of collec tive bargaining would be jeopardized by allowing a third party to write the contract. This opposition by Organized Labor and Management against permitting an out sider to write the terms of a contract is well founded. W hy have collective bar gaining if the terms of a contract are to be determined by a third party? W hy not just have some government agency or super Judge make the decisions and rele gate management and labor to the role of puppets? Among the Union’s unmet demands arc the following: Full pay for six holidays not worked. Pay the total costs of ALL of the follow ing insurance benefits for each employee: Life insurance, accidental death and dis- mcnibei'ment insurance, health and accidnnt benefit insurance, hospitalization and inci dental insurance benefits, maternity benefit insurance, medical care benefit insurance, and sui'gical care benefit insui'ance. One week’s wages for each year of serv ice with the Erwin Mills if an employee is laid off due to teduiological changes in manufacturing. A thirty-minute pjiid lunch period. No Southern cotton mill grants those demands. The Erwin Mills is in a highly competitive business. Practically all the cotton goods we manufacture are of standard specifi- . cations. They are sold on a price basis. In normal times, competition is intense even down to a fraction of a penny. The Erwin Mills must keep Its selling price in line with other Southern cotton mills. That means it must keep its costs, including labor costs, well in line with those of other Southern cotton mills. In the face of this competitive situation, we cannot risk the chance that an outsider will put us too far out of line with our competitors. His decision could destroy our business. Meanwhile, some facts bear repetition. Since January 1,1941 straight-time hour ly wages of our employees have increased 50.64%. W e are not asking our employees to do an unreasonable amount of work. W e are not asking them to do more work than is now being done by workers in competing Southern cotton mills. W e are not asking them to do more work than was done by many of our own employees before the strike was called. If, however, an employee or the Union vfecls that tlie work assignment is too much, that question would be subject to arbitra tion. Tiiis is arbitration as it is generally practiced. Within the terms of the con tract, an arbitrator can decide whether the work load is too much. He may order ad justment of the work load and of the rate of pay. The Erwin Mills would have to abide by his decision. Could anything be fairer than that! The Union has inferred that the Erwin Mills is in violation of War Labor Board directives. This is absolutely untrue. Throughout, our history u>e have built a repu- tation for fair treatment of <iur employees. We intend to continue this fair iffatm ei^. • The Erwin Mills has offiired its employees opportunity for earning the highest cotton mill wages it knows of in the South. The work required is no greater than that it» well'Oper- ated mills throughout the South, The Erwin Mills had hoped for fair consider^ ation of Ihesi^ facts^,We sti^l matn(a(jtt ti^ hppe,, The Erwin Cotton Mills Company i \'> li - V OLU M E X X V IH “AM Ti‘c County News For Everybody” M OCKSVILLE, N C., FRIDAY, JA N U A R Y 18, 1946 “AH The County News For Everybody”NO. 45 MARCH OF DIMES CAMPAIGN GOAL IN DAVIE IS $1,240 . pa vie county’s goal in the March of Dimes campaign for Infantile paralysis Is' $1,240, George Hobson, chairman, an nounces.

KING IS ROTARY SPEAKER Declaring that a man with riches was a failure only when he used such wealth selñshiy and not In the service of his follow- man, Dr. Robert King, pastor of the local Presbyterian church, told Mocksville Rotarians at their Tuesday meeting that “service and not wealth” was the test of whether or not a man was a true failure in life. The speaker cited som^e exam ples of failures and successes, mentioning the fact that the rich man in the Bible was a fail ure not because he had wealth but because he failed to take advantage of serviiig wlien Laz arus lay at his door. He also mentioned an Instance of a wealthy man in a community where the speaker served as pas tor who devoted his wealth for his selfish ends and died unhon ored and unwanted. As an example of service and with the best Rotarían qualities he had ever known, Dr. King told of a classmate at Davidson col lege and the seminary who struggled through both institu tions to pass his examinations because of lack of early schola.s- tlc background. He Anally emerged as a preacher in great demand by large churches but who chose rather to serve a small mission because he was afraid others would decline, finally serving in World War I and be ing killed while trying to rescue a wounded buddy on the bat tlefield.

WEIRD AUTO WRECK HERE In one of the weirdest auto accidents seen in this locality in years, a car driven by Otis Rea vis, 19, corporal in the army, who is home on furlough, demolished the side of Stratford Jewelry store here last Tuesday after noon about 4:15 o’clock. There were three colored peo ple in the car, Reavls, who said he was staying at the home of his father, Virgie Reavls, on route 2, while at home; Qharlie Naylor, 20, of route 2, and Frank lin Lyons, 16, of route 4. Naylor was taken to the hospital with a fractured skull and the other oc cupants had cuts and bruises around the head, which were treated at Long’s clinic. The car came up the sidewalk on Main street In front of the home of Mrs, J, B, Johnstone, barely missed the law office of R, B. Sanford, Jr., continued across Avon street and on the sidewalk between the street and gas tanks of Davie Tractor & Implement Co., before crashing into the northern front entrance of the jewelry concern. All of the brick supporting the build ing were knocked out and the display window of the store was a shambles. The mon said they had been to Booetown and were coming to town. Sherill Bowden stated that Reavls had been placed In the county jail and that charges of drunken driving and reckless driving would be filed against him. Reavls is being held In jail without ball and charges of ml- llclous damage to property and no drivers licence have been lodged against him Should Nay lor die, additional charges will be added, it was stated. The stock of jewelry in the display window was insured but the plate glass window was not, it was stated. • ■'— ....-....- — • Ba.sketball Team Plays Landis Here The Mocksville Merchants basketball team will play the Landis American Legion team at the local hish school gym on Wednesday, January 33, at 8 P.

By GEO. B. HOBSON, County Agent Looking Ahead in 1946: Many poultrymen are confused as to their production plans for the . new year. If employment and Incomes are reduced, poultry and egg consumption will likewise be reduced. The majority of poul try producers have answered the call for Increased production. Many new producers have en tered the business. Poultry and egg production has increased more than will be needed for peacetime consumption, unless foreign markets or new outlets and uses for eggs are found. The present rate of poultry produc tion cannot be maintained on the available feed supplies for 1946 In the nation. Therefore, adjustments must be made. N O W IS THE TIME TO CULL As the prices of poultry and eggs decrease and feed prices re main relatively high, many mar ginal poultry and egg producers who entere^l the business while profits were attractive, will re- • tire from the business. Many of the new producers Just enter ing the poultry business wlthi- out much knowledge of and ex perience with poultry will fall in competition with old, established and experienced producers. Have No Fear if Your Program is Sound: No doubt there are temporary discoura'glnK .times ahead for even the well-estab lished, experienced poultry and (pgg producers. However, all oth er types of farming, business, and industry will also meet with the need for adjustments In production. Therefore, the expe rienced poultry producer has as bright a future as will be found in most other iines'of endeavor. The solution of the, poultry producers’ problem lies in more ciTicicnt operation, both produc tion and marketing, use of labor- saving deviccs, Pullorum clean chicks of better breeding, better brooder house, range and laying house management. To hold the heavy poultry and egg consurap-— tlon, the price to the consumer must be reduced somewhat and at the same time, the producer must reduce the cost of produc tion and improve the quality of the products It takes planning and efficiency to do this, Kecommended EfTiciency Prac tices: 1. Center your attention on quality poultry products, rather than quantity production. 2. Place your order for chicks early with a dependable breeder or hatcheryman. Secure Pullo rum clean chicks If possible. If the chicks are for broilers, se cure them from a source where selection for broiler qualities has been practiced. If the chicks are for layers, secure them from a certified flock or its equivalent, that Is from a flock that Is mated with production - bred pedigreed males. 3, Practice thorough san itation from the time the brood er house is made ready for the chicks until the layers are dis posed of after their laying year has been completed. 4. Use range shelters and clean ranges. 5, Use a high quality feed and plenty of it, but don’t waste It by using feeders that are too small, by filling over 3/3 full, or (Continued on p M f t) FAGE2 THE MÓCKSVILLE (N.

Answer; A great big ‘No’ from T. T. Brown, Extension poultry- man at State College. A 4-H girl had 95 chicks, three weeks old, on Friday” morning...OrT Monday morning she had only 25 and here’s what Brown found when he visited her. The feed was sitting on a concrete floor and was damaged from absorb ing moisture. There was a crowding of the chicks and poor ventilation in the house. She was feeding all mash starting and growing, plus grain, when she should 'have been . using broiler mash. Question: What is the best pecan tree to plant? Answer: First choice with most people, according to J. Y. Lassiter, Extension horticultur ist at State College, Is the Stu art, because it is resistant to scab and one of the most con sistent bearers; You should get budded trees from one of the Southern States, not grafted trees—a one-year top on a two- year root. Many pecan trees die the first year because they are not mulched with plenty of straw around them and because they are not vatered during dry weather. They must be given attention the first year, if you expect them to live. ^ & 7.95 7.95 And this Spring there’s more style now« than ever before in these tboes.

Question; What Is the proper equipment for trimming trees? Answer; Good equipment should include a safety belt, adequate rope, a pole saw for pruning where it is unsafe to climb, and ordinary saws of sev eral sizes and types. No cutting should be done on a windy day and care should be taken not to cut a limb directly above you, unless measures are taken to prevent It from falling on you. Cutting tho underside of a limb first will Insure that it will fall free and you also can get a good, clean cut.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By RUTH CtiRRENT N. C. State College Taking care of a man’s suit makes sense any time, but this fall brings special reasons for care of suits, new and old, say clothing specialists. Suits are still made, of wartime fabrics that need help from the wearers to keep them looking well and to give service. Here are a few remhiders for suit care. Keep suits brushed. Get dust out of folds and corners. Work with the grain of the cloth and use a good clothes brush. A whisk broom only hits high spots. A suit properly brushed and hung needs less pressing. Hang coats squarely on broad wooden hangers of the wish bone shape made for men’s suits. When a coat must hang on a chair, take time to pull shoulders into shape over chair corners. If a coat must hang on a hook, hang It by the loop at the back of the neck. Best way to hang trousers is upside down, using a hanger with clips.

These statistics reveal that, the percentage of total cesualties sustained by the Infantry in both World Wars varied only a fi’actlon of one per cent. In World War One the losses of the infantry amount ed to 75.2 per cent, In World War Two, 75,02 per cent. This despite the vastly expended role of mechanization and air power, the Inescapable fact remains that the brunt of battle is still borne by the infantryman whether he slogs along on foot or drops from a glider plane . Though armed with a multiplicity, of new weapons rang ing from the M-1 Oarand to the latest type tank-busting bazookas, the infantry soldier’s task is still fundamentally the same as it has been since organized warfare began, namely to seek out and come to grips with his foe. No one realizes better than the infantry soldier, his depen dence on adequate artillery, armored forces, and air power. Yet, time and time again positions which had been bombed and shelled to rubble could be taken only after the most desperate kind of hand-to-hand fighting. Thus should and further accolade be necessary for these men who struggled up shell-torn beaches or through mud and snow to storm their objectives, they can claim the distinction of having sustained by far the heaviest casualties as an added justification for the infantry’s proud title of the “Queen of Battles.” Stepping (Half-Way) Down The spectacular aspects of Hlrohlto’s descent from a mystical and mythical elevation have for the moment caught the world’s attention. His renunciation of the legend of the Emperor’s divinity writes itself in blazing .rays in one of the most astonishing pages of history. .But when we have stopped blinking we may turn our thoughts to that event’s less dazzling aspects. One of these is the question whether Hirlhito’s move is not a quietly and shrewdly calculated political maneuver amount ing not so much to a renunciation as a reclamation project. The objective of such a move could be to save as much power of the Japanese throne as is now salvageable. After all, the renunciation of a legendary divinity is really the dismissal of a servant—not the ousting of a master. In Japanese eyes, at least for the last three quarters of a century, the religious connotations of the thronfe have been made to overshadow the political aspects. But, in reality, the political connotations were the im portant ones. They were oppressive, reactionary to a point hardly believeable by the occidental mind. And even in Japan they haj^ to be buUressed by fostering super stition among the unenlightened masses. General Mac Arthur has said he is gratified by Hlro- hito’s move. The general may have foreseen the move when, as executor for State Department policy in Japan, he announced a separation of church and State, Hirohito has provided a smashing first act for a great political drama. But if the drama is to have substance, the following acts will have to disclose as deep reforms In Japanese political thinking as are now forecast in pop ular religious thinking. Such reforms must certainly re sult from basic changes in spiritual concepts. But how swiftly they come will depend in part on how much aid or hindrance they receive from those classes of Japanese who have in the past benefited from what the Emperor now admits was a “false concept,” If the Emperor is no longer a god, is he still the re pository of sovereignty of the Japanese nation? Or do the people become sovereign? And through what methods and when? The Japanese Emperor has attracted world attention not only to his more or less graceful descent from cerulean realms but by the political potentialities that his move opens up. From here on we shall be watch ing for these. A BRONZE STAR won by his hero father, Capt. Victor Briggs of New York Is pinned on the coat of little Victor Briggs who appears more interested in the donor—Brig. Gen. F. S. Strong — than in the gift.

Long'Time Plans of Work for Counties Farmers in many countlcs in North Carolina are now develop ing long-time plans for agrricul- ture in their sections with the assistance of the county and home agents of the Extension Service. These plans vary with the size of farms, the type of agriculture, and many other factors. In Caldwell county, for ex ample, Max Culp has served as assistance and as farm agent since 1939. Seventeeth 4-H clubs have been organized and the members are centering their ac tivities around gardening, calf projects, and poultry production. Most of the farms In this section are small and have 10 acres or less of open crop land. The Klwanls Club assisted in forming a pig chain of five links, with a good boar and 4 gilts, each boy returning two pigs to the chain. The 4-H members se lected Berkshlres as the hogs they wished to grow, , ^ The Rotary Club and other bujslness interests became in terested In a calf club chain and, as a result, 0 Jerseys and 0 Guernseys were placed In the chain. As a means of increasing food supplies, the acreage of alfalfa has been doubled This crop will receive spq^clai atention in the future. Since about three out of every four acres on the average farm is In timber and since there is a good demand for timber pro ducts, Culp is assisting farmers in learning the true value of their timber. He cites an in stance where the farmer figured his timber to be worth alx>ut $1,500 or more. When the trees had been marked and scaled, the timber was sold for $4,000 and there was left an excellent stand of white pine, about 50,000 board feet, Caldwell County has a num ber of small dairy herds and poultry flocks. There are some peach and apple orchards All farms have ’ small grains, and much progress Is being made In permanent and supplemental pastures, Ellis Vestal, secretary of the N, C.

Brown, Extension poultry specialist at State Col lege, There must be air inlets and outlets provided if the air Is to be permitted free clrcula- i tlon so as to remove the fumes and excess moisture from the house. If the fumes are not re moved from the. house, the growth of the chicks will be stunted. If the excess, moisture In the air Is not drained off from the house, the floor and litter will become damp and that con dition often results in outbreaks of disease, especially coccldlosls. The shed-roof brooder house facing the south is easy to build and easy to ventilate. Brown suggests that the windows should be so Installed that they will pull In at the top. Side shields should be used so that fresh air entering the house will be diverted upwards so as to prevent a cold draft from reaching the chicks on the floor. The pull-in windows with the side shields should be set low so the bottom of the window will reach within one foot of the floor, ' The fresh air is brought in through these pull-in win dows, and air outlets should be provided above the plate, be tween the rafters on the front or south side. All the air inlets and outlets should be on the south side in cold weather. Win dows or ventilators should be provided on the other sides for hot weather brooding but these should be kept closed tightly during cold weather. The amount of opening for air Inlet and outlet should be regulated according to the wea ther. However, those openings should not be closed complete ly even In real cold weather. Old brooder houses without proper ventilation can be alter ed easily and quickly so as to provide good air circulation without floor drafts. If the air in a brooder house seems damp and stuffy when you walk In, the ventilation Is Inadequate or Improper for best growth and health of the chloks. FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED QUESTION: Should young pines planted for timber be pruned?

Sugar Ration Books Are Still Good Raleigh, Jan. 8.—Recent an nouncements that sugar ration books will henceforth be Issued for all of North Carolina by the OPA district office in Raleigh does not mean that present hold ers of books will get a new one, Thedore S. Johnson, director of the Office of Price Administra tion, said today. Johnson said the announce ments simply Indicated that re turning service people, who have never had ration books, or fami lies having new babies, may ap ply for sugar ration books by ob taining an application blank at the local board and sending it to the Raleigh office properly filled out. The same procedure should be followed to replace lost or mutilated books, Johnson said. A lot of people, he added, thught that new books were be ing Issued to all persons. This Is not true.' i • U'* ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of the shareholders of the Mocksville Building & Loan Association will be held in the office of the Association JANUARY 24, 1946, 7:30 P.

His own obligation Is to grow in his job, thus helping, through business expansion, to create other jobs . . . His co-operation is necessary to progress in his native Piedmont. He Is convinced that opportunity remains open to him, for all around him he sees top places filled by men that started at the bottom. He knows of mqre than one thriving plant in his community that at one time existed only in the mind of some worker busy in a cellar or a one-room shop trying out an idea. Electricity as the worker’s partner in progress is taken for granted in the Piedmont Carolinas ... where, for over 40 years, it has been used to create jobs. By expansion of the facilities of the Duke Power Company well ahead of a corresponding expansion in industry, power has always been ready when, and in whatever quantity, demanded by Piedmont progress.

With practically a complete cessation of the build ing of houses during the war, except, of course, where war needs dictated the erection of temporary structures such as, lor instance, the Manhattan Project, there has developed a pent-up demand which builders estimate will require the con struction of 1,000,000 or more ■homes annually for at least the next 10 years. The National Housing Agency forecasts the construction of 12,000,000 new nontarm homes In the next decade. The mere fact that there Is an accumulated shortage of hous ing facilities Is no indication that even urgent needs will be adequately met in the next year or two. Little can be done during the balance of this year, since the unfavorable season Is now at hand for outdoor woric. Even if the weather were propitious, there are severe' shortages of such needed Items as lumber, particularly hardwood flooring, gypsum laths, iron soil pipe, clay sewer pipe, tile and brlcls. Short also are plumbing goods, radiators, refrigerators and heating equipment. Even If materials were available, the lack of skilled plumbers, paint ers, bricklayers, carpenters, etc., would slow the building program to a crawl. Then, too, about 75 per cent of the building con tractors operating before the war are out of business. Other Deterrents to Construction Additional checks to building are laid to strikes, to OPA pric ing policy and to certain union rules which come under the gen eral name of feather-bedding. It might be thought that the higher costs which prevail, esti mated at about 35 per cent above prewar, would be further deter rent. But the ballooning of the prices of old houses by 50 per cent or more indicates that mar- ke't values offer hardly any bar rier to the transfer of residential property. When people are des perate for a place to stay, prices become secondary. But while the program may be retarded by the foregoing fac tors, the "beginning of the boom is already at hand. Actual con struction In the first nine months of 1945, chiefly military and industrial, gained about 11 per cent over 1944, while con tracts signed In the 8-months period rose 53 per cent, Gradual expansion in output of the va rious Items now short appear assured as men are released in larger numbers from the armed services. The annulment of gen eral order L-41 on October 15 last which ended all major WPB construction controls was the signal for the Inauguration of widespread building activity, at least In the preliminary stage. Spring to See Real Momentum L-41, which was instituted by WPB chiefly to conserve scarce materials, also had flxed an $8,000 limit on the value of new houses. This not only held the price down but darned up build ing as well. Today architects are busy devising plans unhampered by a price colling on the com pleted house, though, of course, OPA ceilings on materials con tinue In effect. Real estate ofr flees and mortgage loan socie ties report a big expansion In contemplated new building, par ticularly under the liberal fed eral lending program for the GIs. The momentum in building will be much more evident next spring when construction ma terials will flow to the market In larger quantities. Since It is estimated the Industry canijot become geared to full production inside of two years, observers feel that the building of 450,- 000 homes in 1946 will represent a substantial achievement. This will call for the expenditure of which is smaller than the total about $1,900,000,000, a sum spent for new homes In 1939. In any event, hundreds of thou sands will have to wait for a new home until 1947 or 1948. Of particular interest at the present time is the attitude of the Administration toward the question o£ price controls. Since there are scarcities of building materials, and costs are fully a third above prewar levels, the trade can look for a continuance of controls until supplies are plentiful or near to catching up with demand. Inflation looks like a real threat to the Office of Price Administration, the Of fice of War Mobilization and Reconversion and to the Nation al Housing Agency. Industry Scans Possibilities At a meeting held in Wash ington recently, called by Pres ident Eric Johnston of the Na tional Chamber of Commerce to form a new Construction Indus try Advisory Council, represent atives of more than 80 national trade and professional organi zations heard John W. Snyder, O W M R director, ask for expand ed production of houses so that controls could be lifted. At the same time he said, "If produc tion Is stifled and restrained, controls will continue necessary builders feel that controls them- for a longer period.” Many selves are partially responsible for a slower building program. The latest furore has been caused by an OPA proposal to put a price celling on every new or used house built by private enterprise, a proposal turned down by Congress last spring, but now revived. For new homes, the agency would add to actual construction costs a margin of profit lor the builder, and for old homes It would establish as a celling price the flrst resale at an uncontrolled price. This procedure was termed dangerous and unworkable by Douglas Whitlock, representing the Chamber of Commerce of the, United States, before a Sen ate Small Business subcommit tee. He declared that no organ* Izatlon competent to adminis ter such a task existed, that it would hamper construction ac tivity of smaller builders, lead to a black market and to jerry building. Competition, he said, would avert Inflation, More Supplies Will End Controls The desire of the building In dustry to be freed of controls is understandable, since to ener getic entreepreneurs accus tomed to the democratic free doms, they are a rather new and irksome harness. But we are just out of the shadow of war. Scarcities persist on all sides. People have more money saved up for contingencies than ever before. Should the nation, there fore, throw aside all restraints at once and let supply and de mand function without let or hindrance? The answer Is pat ently—‘No. A wild scramble could readily result, with sky rocketing prices and a succeed ing slump, such as occurred aft er World War I with 400,000 homes built In 1919; soaring pi'lces checked buyers and only 250,000 homes were built In 1920. Controls limit profits. It is true, but government officials are forced to choose a course between the rocks of Inflation ary prices and the quicksand of restrictions that grow out of controls, A fair profit for the builder Is essential but the buy er, driven by necessity, should not be penalized because some rapacious elements exist In the construction field. Dropping L-41 should give a pronounced im petus. Further release from controls will Inevitably result as supplies become more ample. N.

Carson, superintendent of schools, Stokes county; and Mayor W . M, Pennington, Mocks- vllle. This new board was organized January 8, 1940, as provided for in a general assembly bill last March (H. B. No. 321). The board Is charged with the re sponsibility of caring for mat ters relating to the interest of the public health in this tri- county district and it replaces the former health boards in each of the three counties. The law requires that the board meet at least once each year In some city, or county in this three county health department. The establishment of the dis trict board tends to streamline the administration setup of the local health department and will be an hnprovement over the old setup as it facilitates the pro cedures formerly handled by three boards. The State Health Officer, however, In a recent let ter has made it a point to ex press the appreciation of the State Board of Health for the interest and willing co-operation at all times on the part of the members of each of the former county boards. These gentle men have rendered valuable service locally and to the state. Join the March of Dimes. Kitchen Fats Still Are Greatly Needed The end of rationing of meats and fats and oils has In no way lessened the need for the sal vage of used kitchen fats, Hill man Moody, assistant state di rector of the U. S, Department of Agriculture’s Production and Marketing administration, de clared this week. Quoting Secretary of Agricul ture Clinton P. Anderson, Mr. Moody asserted that "even though rationing is ended, there still remains the need for pre venting waste of any fats, and for salvaging all used fats which are needed for the manufacture of soap and for other Industries.” Meat dealers; Mr. Moody pointed out, will continue to pay housewives four cents a pound for used kitchen fats. He urged housewives not to let up on this essential and patriotic "recon version activity,” Inasmuch as supplies of Industrial fats, which go Into the making of soap and other civilian goods are still very short. This supply situation, he said, will continue serious until the war-halted Imports again reach peacetime proportions. Mr. Moody paid high praise to the loyal help of North Carolina housewives who, throughout the war years, have conserved, sal vaged, and turned in used kitchen fats. He took occasion also to laud the cooperation giv en by grocers and meat dealers throughout the state for their share in the salvage program. Moody said that rural house wives can salvage mlich fats during the hog-killing season, and suggested that the Home Demonstration clubs conthiue their fine work which they did with this project during the war.

HOBSON f County Agent Realizing that the demand for hybrid seed corn Is Increasing, and that over $1,000 will be spent this year by our farmers for hy brid seed, which Is grown out- Bide the county, we secured L. S. Bennett, from the N. C. Crop Improvement association, to con duct a school last Wednesday on how to grow corn hybrids. After the meeting was held the lollowlng men each agreed to try one-fourth acre In order to qual ify as apprentice growers; John Albert Miller, Route 4, MocksvUle. J. O. Crawford, Cooleemee. Clay Allen, Route 2, Mocksvllle. Joe Smith, Route 3, Mockavllle. Oeorge Evans, Route 1, Mocks vllle. They will secure their seed «tock from the N. C. Seed Pro ducers Foundation. The seed they get will have been (nbred for at least five years, and all of the seed showing poor char acters, which are brought out by inbreeding, will have been discarded. If ^hey do a good job In carrying out the Instructions of the Crop Improvement asso ciation they will qualify next year as, approved hybrid corn seefl growers. In the cornbelt states of the middle west about 98% of the corn grown Is from hybrid seed. Just as soon as adapted varieties are grown for our section of the state we feel confident there will be a ready sale for the seed. We normally grow about 12,000 acres of corn In Davie County. This takes Ubout 1,500 bushels of seed to plant the crop.

Sprinkle, told lo^al Rotarlans at their Tuesday meeting that It was dangerous not to have a will, hazardous to write one yourself and risky not to keep It up to date. Mr. Sprinkle, who was pre sented by his father who was In charge of the program, gave many humorous and serious in stances of ‘‘wills." He empha sized a will should be changed as conditions and flnancial sta tus of the Individual change, citing the fact that the late F. W . Woolworth wrote a will early in married life leaving his es tate to his wife. At the time of his (death his wife was In an Insane asylum and there were millions to be administered which he had Intended giving to various charities. The speaker also reminded his hearers that an estate could save money in many Instances when the will was properly drawn; that the true Intent of a will might be voided by an in dividual attempting to write a will. He also stressed the Im portance of keeping a will In a sate place, citing a case of the signature of one maker of a will being destroyed by a cockroach, “The safest thing to do is to have a lawyer draw your will and then keep it up to date as a protection to yourself and family,” Mr. Sprinkle asserted, A, T.

MARCH OF DIMES IN FULL SWING The March of Dimes Campaign is In full swing. The feature event next week is the Polio Dance in Sanford Hall, Wednesday night, January 30. The public Is cordially In vited to dance to help some polio victim jjajk. People don’t stop to think how fortunate we are, in that Davie county only had one Infantile paralysis victim in the terrible epidemic of 1044. The cost of hospitalization for this one child, however, amounted to $532.68. There were 859 cases in North Carolina that year, or an aver age of 8,0 cases'per county. The best Insurance thixt we can take out to prevent such a catastro phe is to give generously to the March of Dimes Campaign, be cause one-half of the funds raised will go to the National Foundation to further Its re search in the cause and cure of polio. The other half remains in the county to be ready for any emergency that may arise. Since polio knows no’ racial, religious, or economic distinctions, it's the duty as well as the privilege of every Davie county citizen to contribute to the March of Dimes, So give, and give gen erously to the person in your community who is collecting the money fo rthls worthy cause. George Hobson, chairman of the March of Dimes campaign this year, stated that the joy of being able to help some little child, walk again was vividly brought to his attention the oth er day. A man called him over the phone and said he was leav ing a dollar at a local doctor’s ofl'lee, and asked that he eall for it. The man who left the dol lar was a cripple, and was un able to take the money to Mr, Hobson’s olTlce, DISCHARGED Pfc.

Gregg Cherry in the Forsyth county court room, when they were presented medals in recog nition of tlieir service. Selec tive Service officials who serv ed without compensation for at least two years received this honor. Members of the draft board receiving medals were J, H. Robertson, E, M, Holt and L, L. Miller. Dr. P, H, Mason, Govern ment Appeal agent, was also a- warded the honor. New England once was burled under 1,000 feet of ice. Due to lack of personnel and wartime conditions, a preliminary survey of markets and restaurants made in Davie county last week showed that places inspected had drifted to very low standards. No place in the county made more than a C rating. Sanitary conditions in and around Mocksville were called “deplorable”. The survey was made by W . Murray Linker, Jr., of the state board of health, district sanitarian, and Carl E. Shell, recently appointed sanitarian of this district, with headquarters here. The inspectors made the fol lowing report; Each place In the. county was acquainted with regulations and excepting places where condi tions are out of hand, all places were allowed to continue to in operation on condition that all requirements be met within a specified period of time. According to the grades which will not be announced until next regular Inspection, no place in the county made better than a C rating. Several places were closed un til arrangements for raising their standards were made. The cleanest restaurant found In the county was a cafe operated by a colored citizen of Mocksville. In the future both the county and state Inspectors will make frequent Inspections and the regulations will be rigidly en forced. All restaurants mus't have per mits issued by the health de partment before they will be al lowed to open for business. Some of the major requirements are the following: One: adequate facilities for washing, rinsing and subjecting all eating and drinking utilities to approved bacter-lcldal treat ment. Two: sufficient equipment to heat an ample supply o'f water to temperatures of 170 degrees and above. Three: ample provisions for refrigerating all food. Five: hand washing facilities, including warm water, soap and towels. Six: health certificates and clean aprons and uniforms. Seven : control of roaches, flies and rats. Eight J good housekeeping in general and approved means of garbage disposal. Any restaurant rating from 80-100 Is awarded grade A; from 80-90 grade B; from 70-80 grade C. Any restaurant found oper ating with a rating less than 70% Is subject to closing or in dictment or both. In such cases the permit Is automatically re voked and the requirements must be met and a new permit Issued before they may again resume operations. DEPLORABLE In discussing general sanitary conditions in and around Mocks vllle, Mr. Linker said there was a deplorable situation with re spect to garbage and refuse found In large piles back of the stores in the business district. When operators were warned that they must provide garbage cans, clean up their premises and see that all garbage and rubbish were re moved at frequent Intervals, they protested of their inability to comply because negligence of the town's garbage collections system, Mr. Linker said. "It .seems that no attempt Is made to pick up garbage at all except once a week in the busi ness district," he continued. “In some Instances, although the garbage is available to the trucks, operators are required to carry the garbage and rubbish to other designated areas of col lection. ‘'Such piles of open garbage are a menace to the health of the community because they af ford excellent fly-breeding con ditions and furnish food for rats which adds very materially to the potential spread of typhus fever. “This situation demands the interest and support of all per sons interested in the better ment of the community. All back lots should be cleaned and raked and garbage removed at least several times each week during the winter and at least dally during the summer months, par ticularly In the business area," Dr. Alfred Mordeeai, district health officer, made the follow ing statement: "Improvement of the sanitary conditions in this section is of vital Importance to the public health and public support of the present efforts to Improve con ditions should be a concern of, all citizens. “Statistics show that altogeth er too much ptomaine poisoning, intestinal infections, dysentery and other epidemic di.seases have broken out in this state each summer. Many of these diseases are plainly traceable to poor sanitary conditions in eat ing places and local premises." i>nnv 9 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.)

PROTEIN MEAL IS LIMITED In an effort to prevent short ages In large livestock feeding areas of the Nation, the U. S. Department of Agriculture has Issued an order restricting the use of protein meal in the man ufacture of mixed feed for live stock and poultry, J. N. Smoot, chairman, Davie County AAA Committee, said here this week. “Necessity for the order,” Mr. Smoot explained, "arises from the heavy drain on supplies of protein feed caused by the large number of poultry on farms, near record volume of cattle feeding during the winter and the feeding of hogs to unusual ly heavy weights.” “The restrictions are a rein statement and expansion of manufacturing and distribution controls originally Issued in De cember, 1943, and terminated in 1945 after the feed situation im proved,” he said. The recently Issued order pro-, hlbits manufacturers from us ing more high protein meal In making feed for feeding live stock other than poultry feed than the quantity used for that purpose in the corresponding calendar quarter of 1945. The order provides that no person may use a larger quan tity of protein meal in the man ufacture of poultry feed than the following percentages of the quantity so used in the corre- Oeorge, Baity spent Saturday with Mrs, J.

This limitation is In line with the national 1940 goals calling for a 15 percent reduction in Lhe production of eggs and a 17 percent decrease in the number of chickens raised on farms. Tho order prohibits acccpt- ance of delivery of protein meals by a user in any quantity \<'hlch will cause his Inventory to ex ceed a 30-day supply based upon his use or sales during the cor responding calendar month of 1945. As a result of authorization to Impose set-aside requirements, if such was deemed necessary to accomplish the purpose of the new order, the initial set-aside for the remainder of January, beginning on the 16th is 5 per cent of the production of soy bean, cottonseed, linseed and peanut meal. Announcement regarding the percentages that processors will be required to set- aside in February is expected about January 25.

ENTEItPRISE PAOE3 There were 70 Farm Security lamllles In Davie County In 1945, eighteen oi which were tenant purchase borrowers and 52 oth ers who were borrowing for farm equipment and farm operation, ■ays Miss Lucy Pat Allen, FSA home supervisor. The total num- iber of persons were 412, making an average of almost 6 per fam ily. There were 28,566 quarts of fruits and vegetables canned during the year, which was around 422 quarts per family or 72. quarts per person. Also they canned approximately 4,120 quarts of meat which included 27 calves, pork and, chickens grown on the farms, according to Miss Alien’s report. Miss Al len states that “it is necessary to have a pressure cooker for best success in canning. Forty- three of these FSA homemakers had cookers this past year to do their canning and several others have been ordered since the new year.” Besides all of the canned food the FSA families also stored and dried all the food possible for home use. There were over 2,884 bushels stored and dried in 1M5, Including onions, peas, beans, peanuts, Irish and sweet potatoes.

PINO To Answer Hurley SANITARY CONDITIONS Representatives of the county and state health de partment made a preliminary survey of sanitary conditions In Mocksville and the county last week and they had some blistering things to say about us. They checked restau rants, markets and local back lots. Not a restaurant was found to be atrave grade C and the back lot grabage situa- was called “deplorable,” to put it politely. Local sanitary conditions have been discussed more probably than any other local problem but little or nothing has been done. Nature has taken its course— with ever present fUth. Of course the war has interfered with per sonnel and equipment— and the sanitary officers took a very reasonable view of the situation. After all, many of those responsible for public health have been to war, too. Some plan should be worked out— and then enforced— for keeping the back lots clean and garbage removed. Such a plan, we think, can be evolved between the merchants and the city offlcials for a minimum sensible standard of cleanliness necessary to public health. It should be done now before spring and the flies get here. Insofar as the restaurants go, patrons have continu ally grumbled about conditions but acctepted them for two reasons: help and food shortages and lack of a suflHcient number of public eating places. There is an excellent op portunity here, we believe, for some present restaurant owner or somebody else to establish a thoroughly modern place to eat. The sanitation officers-stated very plainly that those which cannot attain a grade C rating of 70% will be forced to close.

ADVANCE Confusion And Conflict For sometime we have been thinking of the strikes in terms of the relationships between labor and management, but It has now passed that phase and we see clearly the different groups are expressing a spirit of stubborness and greed. The amount of fault to be ascribed to each is more difficult to determine, but it is a human fàult, not one merely of labor or capital. Nor is it confined to the groups labelled management and labor. When labor strikes at management, or when management clashes with labor they are manifesting some thing which Is only part of tlie spirit which seems to have gripped the general public as well. The employers.,of labor have not been more selfish that the people who charge ex orbitant prices for the necessities of life. During the past Christmas season we saw people pay higher prices for the shoddiest goods we ever saw. People whose love for their children sent them out to buy toys, spent the most money for the least value, so we believe, than they ever did in their lives. It wasn’t th amount of the pay check which hurt so bad; -it was the excessive prices which had to be paid- an^ mainagement certainly had nothing to do with that. The CPA tried an experiment in releasing citrus fruits from price control, and at once citrus fruits soared. People seem to have lost their sense of right and justice, and have resolved their actions into “111 get all that I can regardless.” This is a time when the prophets of the land, if there are any prophets, should raise their voices against selfish ness, greed, and stubbornness. This is not a time to war against capital or labor, but to war against the selfishness in all of it. Such conditions as now exist will destroy all of us; every day we are creating conditions of cold, hunger, and misei7. We are bound to reap the consequences. We must face the facts, and we should have a national revival call ing for repentence everywhere. The times are serious, and call for wisdom, patience, and tolerance— not anger, hate, and stubbornness. Prefix Fools The government does not permit newspapers to carry the prefix, but are tempted to use it when we read of people buying mink coats for dogs, throwing fast parties with very, very high-priced whiskies, and otherwise making whoopee in a world in which cold, hunger, and misery stalks over a large part of the earth. People who have wealth can make It create happiness, prosperity, and peace; or, they can use it in such a way as to create hatred, envy and strife. The people who so foolishly vaunt their wealth before cold and starving people are the fools who make the decent rich suffer.

State College For painting old linoleum — areas In front of the stove or sink, that receive the most wear, can easily toe repaired by paint ing in a pattern Instead of paint ing the whole floor, Mark off large flagstone ahapes on the floor, putting large ones In the areas that may have to be repainted. Paint as you wish, choosing the colors that will harmonize with the kltcihen. Points to check, when buying pans and kettles, say house man agement specialists are: (1) Bal ance The pan and Its han dle should be well-balanced so that the pan stands even when empty. Too heavy a handle makes a tipsy pan that Is awk ward to use and may cause dan gerous apills of hot water or food. (2) Surface — lUie fewer the cracks at joinings, the more dur able and easy to clean Is will be (3) Bottom — A flat bottom helps keep a pan steady and means faster heating and more economical use of fuel. Pans for use on electric stoves should have dull-flnlshed bottoms to save fuel. A dull finish absorbs heat In contrast to a shiny finish which reflects it. (4) Sides — Straight sides are more economical of heat and also of space on the stove than flaring sides. (5) Handles — Handles of pans and covers should ibe comfortable to grasp and insulated against heat. (6)) Cove — A close-fitting cover Is essential for many cook ing processes, so buying a pan and cover together is often worth the extra money. (7) Thickness — Thin, light weight-aluminum Is less expen sive and less durable than the fVWVWWWVVWVWVSAAMVVWVVVVVWWVWVVVVWWWVWVVVWI STRATFORD’S HAS JUST RECEIVED A SHIPMENT OF The Sensational Th* Pm that Nswr Luks- N*«H Blols-Ranly Drinks Guaranteed To Write 2 Years Without RefUling Reynolds C I O K A International Pen _____ Including Stand in Natural Silver Color V guaranteed to write 2 years without refilling •x V never smudges or smears—no blot ter needed V won’t leak or drip in pocket or handbag V writes fine, medium, or heavy—to pressure V writes clearly thi’ough 4 to S carbons V writes on any paper, cloth; writes under water V writes at stratosphere altitudes with out leaking Stratford's “PEPENDABLE JEWELERS’* Expert Watch Repairing Mocksville, N. 0.

Cows which are allowed to graze on pastures causing 111- tasting milk should be taken off such grazing at least five hours before milking, says John A, Arey, leading dairy specialist of the State College Extension Serv ice.'Cows should be allowed to eat such vegetation after milking only.. Q. What is the best means of keeping nut meats from becom ing stale? A. Can or freeze the meat«, says Miss Ruth Current, State College Home Demonstration agent, who cites the latest re search on food preservation as the basis for her suggestion. Q. How long does it take to develop hybrid corn? A. At least five years of care ful cross-breeding is required to turn out high-yielding hubrids, says Dr. R, P. Moore of the State College Exprimeht Statibh. The hybrid corn breeding program in North Carolina is in its in fancy, Dr. Moore adds, since 1946 is Just the sixth year of the state-wide hybrid undertaking.

Steam presses succeeded the hand press, on which John Zenger won the first battle for freedom of printed speech. Today, giant electric presses replace steam. Through all mechanical progress our fundamental faith in the press as a cornerstone of Liberty has remained. Here in the Piedmont Carolinas is exemplified a free press brought to peak usefulness through keen initiative, resourcefulness, and vision.

It will not be so many weeks before the common housefly will begin to bra^d again. It Is now generaliy known that this pest Is the chief spreader of many diseases. Now Is a good time to repair those screens for the win dows. You might build also a *ood garbage stand and provide cans with covers. You might also write for a health bulletin on DDT—the new Insecticide. Rats and mice of course are not seasonal. They’re breeding all the time. A case of typhus fever was reported In Forsyth county this month. This Is a disease of rats, which spreads to man. It threatens to become more common as the rat pop ulation increases. Rubbish and all rat breeding and rat feeding places should be eliminated as far as possible In the home and In the stores. You might also put out traps and poisons. Now Is also the time to plan tor that kitchen garden. If you have stable manure spread It thick over the garden site and work It In the soil early, before the flies begin to breed. Be sure to include In your seed order some of the root vegetables for use next fall and winter. Plant a generous quantity of parsnips, salsify, leeks and carrots—as well as plenty of onions of the varie ty that store well, and potatoes of both kinds. Plant some herbs such as sage, parsley, thyme and peppers; these will come In mighty handy fjpr changing the flavor of your foods If they be gin to grow tiresome when cooked the same old way. A good variety of home grown veg etables will make for better health and cut down on your dental bills and money spent for medicines. Plan to put up cu cumber pickles too. The wise family will also be gin now to be Inoculated against typhoid fever. Don’t wait until the season commences. Remem ber It takes a little while after the Injections to establish a good Immunity. Besides you can spare the time for seeing the doctor now better than later. Your doctor and your health de partment are ready now to as sist you. Children who are to enter the public schools next year should be ImmunlMd against small-pox, diphtheria and whooping cough. They will not bo eligible for en rollment if this Is not done. It Is a state law and It will be rig-- Idly enforced from now on.

J. U. s. Liquid Wealth More Widely Spread New York.—Ownership of the liquid wealth of this country has undergone a significant change owing to the broadened distri bution of savings, according to a study published in the bulletin of the Life Insurance Companies of America. The analysis, based on surveys made by various government de partments, shows that a'pproxl- mately 45 per cent of all Indi vidual savings accumulated since Pearl Harbor belong to those In the medium and lower Income groups below $5,000 a year. These groups, it Is esti mated, will have close to $59,- 000,000,000 In savings by the end of the year, a sum greater than the total of liquid assets owned by all Individuals before Pearl Harbor. Total accumulated savings. Including currency and bank deposits from 1942 through 1944 with an estimate for 1045 made shortly after the Japanese sur render, are placed at about $132,000,000,000. Regarding pre-war ownership of savings and referring to statements In the Federal Re serve Bulletin, the life Insurance companies assert that “Individ uals with annual Incomes In ex cess of $5,000 probably held most of the amount of liquid assets outstanding before the war.” Income groups below $2,000 a year are attributed, with war time savings of about $11,000,- 000,000. The study calls this “a significant development’’ since these classes are normally In the no-savlngs category “be cause of the fact that savings by some are offset by dls-savings of others,” The survey concludes with an appeal “to conserve nesteggs and to keep on saving wherever pos sible,” Government studies at tempt to make allowances for estimated effects of unmploy- ment on savings this year, but recognize that unemployment Insurance will in many cases curtail the necessity for large drafts on savings for living ex penses.

Pecan Trees Furnish Fine Nuts and Shade There is simply nothing quite so fine as having some beautiful pecan trees around the farm home to furnish an abundance of nuts for the family, some to sell, and plenty of shade. J. Y. Lassiter, extension horticulturist at tSate college, suggests that at least five trees be set. Many people lose pecan trees after they are set out and the trees do not grow ¿is fast as they should. “What’s the matter with my pecan trees?” is the ques tion that Lassiter has to answer time after time. If Information is needed In growing these trees, ust write the Horticultural De partment, State College, Raleigh, for some notes recently prepared by Lassiter and John H. Harris. Here are a few suggestions for setting the trees. Prepare a good place to set the tree, put top soil around the roots, and pack the soli well. Then wulch the tree with straw and don’t forget to water , It during exceptionally dry weather during the first two years. Oet four foot, budded trees The Stuart is the first choice for the Coastal Plain and the Pied mont, with the Indiana and Green River in the mountains Other varieties for the Coastal Plain are the Brake, Success, and Schley. Indiana and Green Rivr also do well In the Pied mont. Use about 2 pounds of 6-8-6 fertilizer per tree when setting, and some stable manure, if It is available. Then increase the amount of fertilizer per tree each year by 2 pounds. It’s sur prising how much fertilizer a large tree can use to advantage Put the fertilizer in holes about one to two feet deep away from the trees at the ends of the limbs.

Pine Log Man’s Pay Puts Mayer In Shade Louis B, Mayer of the M OM movie firm is listed by the Income tax croupiers as the highest paid Individual In the United States today but E. P. Caler, “dirt” far mer of the Pine Log section of Clay county. North Carolina, whose Income has Increased more than 700 per cent In the past seven years puts Mayer In the cool shade when percentages are considered. Mayer netted almost a million dollars more money in 1945 than did Parmer Caler but the movie mogul's increase over previous years was low while Caler’s was 700 per cent over the eight years since 1939. Caler, who took over what was admittedly the 'poorest farm in Pine Log” In the Brasstown water shed project, got only $300 for his efforts the first year but in 1945 netted a neat $2,600. Clay county agent R. G. Vick of Hayesvllle, who said that the phenomenal improvement of the Caler farm was due to “follow ing a three-year crop rotation, growing winter cover crops and wise management,” declared that “this is typical of the farm and home Improvements which are being made by test-demonstra- tlon from families in Clay county.” Caler's plans for the future Include continued use of lime, phosphate, and legumes on his thread-bare land and continued income increases are expected.
