cording to Mrs. Gartrell.
She described the school con
ditions, revealing that children
had to take compeiilive examina-
NM to get into hlgb school and
that the ratio of children per
mitted to attend high school was
very, very low.
Mrs. Gartrell stated that the
Chinese soldiers had no idea
whatsoever of what they were
fighting for. That the army would
«oriitioas in the dtlea at China.
She pointed out that the United
States was a place that milk bott-
lea could aet unmolested on the
doorstep but that in China this
could not exist because six mil
lion people die annually from
hunger. She described the illit
eracy and superstition with the
example of how they put red tags
on the children stating that the
child had had smallpox in the
effort to fool the^evil spirit of
smallpox into passing the child
by. Three out of four children
conscript able boys and men from
the street offering them no op-
pertunlty of even adviaing their
fsmiy of where they were going.
She pebitsd out that they were
given very little training before
being sent into bettle and that
they w e M dMtrt from «ne army
to the other in an effort to find
immediate better cn^tioM , As
China has experisaeed war lor
the last 40 yean and the inva
sion of many foreign troops, the
people want peace and are ready
to accept it on most any terms.
She slated that In her opinion
they have no idea whatsoever as
to what Communism means, and
are only desiroua of peace. Mrs.
Oartiell reveeled that in Ksr
opinion. General Chiang had done
more to unite China than any-
O M in Ita previoua history, but
said that he may have outlived
hie ussfBtaMss in the preiwnt tur
moil. She stated that she had
great faith in the Chinese people
and believed that one day they
would become a nation that the
entire world could be proud of;
but she added, “What will hap
pen between now and then 1 do
not know. However,' the Chinese
people today need our earnest
prayers.”
Mrs. Gartrell was introduced
by R. B. Sanford, Jr.
J. K. Sheek presided in the
absence of the president, J. H.
Thompson.

Г и в М Rites HeM For
Mrs. Henry Price
Mrs. Nora Winchester Price,
73, widow of the late Henry 1*
Price, and mother of Curtis Price
of Mocksville, died suddenly at
the home of her son, Julian Price,
in the Wesley Chapel community
near Monroe, Monday night at
П o’clock. Her death came as a
great shock to the members of
her immediate family. Mrs. Price
seemingly was in good health and
had just enjoyed visiting the dif
ferent members of her -family
during the Christmas season. Her
sudden pasisng, therefore, came
as a great surprise to all.
Mrs. Price was born in the Wes
ley Chapel community July 13,
1879, and with the exception of
the last five years, spent her en
tire life in that conununlty. Her
husband was a former state sen
ator from Union county.
Mrs. Price was the mother of
12 children, eleven of whom sur
vive, 8 sons and 3 daughters.
Funeral services were held at
the Wesley Chapel Methodist
church on Wednesday afternoon
at 3 o’clock. Following the serv
ices, Mrs. Price was buried in the
family plot of the Monroe cem
etery. Active pallbearers were the
eight sons.

The 1949 annual fund raising
drive of the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis which
sparkplugs the never-ceasing
drive against polio, will begin on
January 15 and continue through
January 90, E. H. Gartrell, chair
man of the drive in Davie county,
announces.
The need for funds, Mr. Gar
trell said, has never been greater
since the founding of the Nation
al Foundation of Infantile Paral-
yais in 1938, to spearhead and
coordinate the battle against this
disease.
The quota for Davie county has
been set at $3,000 this year, which
is double the $1,900 quota of laat
year. The increase is due to the
polio epidemic of the past sum
mer which forced Davie to bor
row money from National
foundation to take car^ ef^its pa-
tienU.
In Davie county and many oth
er counties in North Carolina dur
ing the past year there was the
worst polio epidemic this sectien
of the country has ever h M i'
means that the foundation
its chapters were called upon ^
supply expensive equipment and
personnel and every other aid
known to medical science for the
stricken.
The Davie chairman points out
that tlie people of Davie county,
in common with Americans ev
erywhere, have been most gen
erous in supporting the fight
against infantile paralysis and
added that indications that they
will be even more

c<H.ntar STATE DEPARTMENT SAYS MECHANICAL
INSPEOION PROGRAM SAVES LIVES
The motor vehicle department
today came up with some con
vincing evidence to show that
the mechanical inspecton pro
gram is doing the job it was in
tended to do—save lives.
The department stated that in
1946, 104 fatal accidents, killing
one or more persons per acci
dent, were caused by defective
equipment on vehicles. In 1947,'
the year the Legislature pasesd
the inspection law, and while
there was much publicity and dis
cussion concerning it, only 58 fa
tal accdents were.caused by ve
hicular defects.
But the department announceil
that the record' for‘iWs is’even'
better. For the first nine months
of the year, statistics show, only
24 fatal accdents were attributed
to defective vehicles. The depart
ment explained that since the in
spection law went into effect in
January of this year, motorists
have realized the importance of
Icceping their vehicles in safe
condition, and the lanes have
done much to educate motorists
as to safety devices on their ve
hicles that‘need constant atten
tion.

the mechanical inspection divi

Importance Of
‘*Vltal Statistics”
W e have just commemorated
the Holy birth. During this
'Christmas season, we again heard
'or :reread the account of this
'Wrth. It will never grow old.
luvpose no rccord had been made
or account written, what satisfac
tion and encouragement would
we have missed. So, 1 think it
anropriata to make several ob
servations about the record of
births which has become of more
and moi« importance to each of
I.
The bookkeeping of life and
death is called *Mtal statistics.”
Any community which pretends
to keep a record of its doings
must have this rccord. Vital sta
tistics when well prepared and
accurate give valuable informa
tion as to the number of people
—as to birth, age, sex, color, race,
Occupation arid so forth. This
over-all record is kept by the
Bureau of Vital Statistics in the
various states.
In North Carolina, following
birth, the name of every child,
together with the date of its birth,
the name of its parents, and other
essential information must be
filed with the state board of
health. Physicians, midwives and
others art required by law to
report all births within a given
time of their occurrence, usually
within one or two days. This is
as it should t>e, for it establishes
certain basic information without
which many rights of the child
in question might be jeopardized
or even denied in future years.
The Arery fact of citizenship itself
rests upon one’s birth. There are
many legal documents which
cannot be finally authenticated
without information concerning
one’s date of birth. The same is
true of insurance policies and
claims under old-age and surviv
ors insurance in which one’s date
of birth plays an important part.
Before the adoption of the
present system of recording, one
of the main sources of informa
tion establishing d^tcs of birth
was the church wliich, in tnost
cases, required - registration - at
christening time. Another source
was the family Bible, in which
names of children and their dates
of birth were written. Baptismal
and Bible records are accepted
by the Social Security adminis
tration as proof of date of birth
under certain circumstances. The
Bureau of Vital Stastitics accepts
either of the above two sources
for the issuance of delayed birth
certificates. The record of births
in North Carolina, since 1913, is
fairly complete. One born be
fore 1913, would have to use other
records in proving date of birth.
Christmas cakes, iced cookies,
and other goodies are survivals ot
the old custom of giving confect*
kmery gifts to the senators of
her 11, 723,000 vehicles had been
inspected at the state’s 40 inspec
tion lanes. He estimated there
are around 87,000 vehicles that
still must visit the lanes by Jan
uary 1, and urged motorists to
get their Inspections as quickly
as possible. Moore said the lanes
would be able to take care of all
these cars if the owners will only
bring them in.

Importance cf Reporting
Social Security Numbers
Investigation of Social Security
number errors on Social Security
reports filed by employers of this
area for quarter ending Septem
ber 30, 1948, consumed part of the
time of two employees in’ her of
fice last month, Mrs. Ruth G. Duf
fy, manager of the Social Se
curity office said yesterday.
Over and above the time spent
in the local offices, each investi
gation places additional burdens
on the bookkeeping departments
of the Social Security Adminis
tration and the employers involv
ed. lA most instances time spent
in correcting these errors exceeds
the time spent in preparing the
original report.
Mrs. Duffy said that although
these errors fall into two cate'
gories, the same remedy will cure
both. “If an employer will in
sist on actually seeing the Social
Security card as soon as a new
employe goes to wock, he is cer*
tain first, of getting the Social
Security numer for each em
ployee and,” the emphasized, "sec
ond, he is aUo certain of getting
the correct Socal Security niun-
ber.”
“Social Security payments,”
Mrs. Duffy continued, “are based
on the worker ^ving credit for
«t least iso in wages in a specified
number of reporting periodi.
Therefore, the decision to pay or
:not to pay Social Security bene
fits can, and sometimes does,
hinge upon whether a worker fi
nally got credit for a relatively
small amount of wages which
were reported incorrectly by the
employer. By the same token,
i>enefit checks are smaller when
some wages ar not posted to the
worker’s account.”
Mrs. Duffy pointed out that
while most employers are marking
proper reports, the reiatvely few
who turn in incorrect or incom
plete reports are endangering the
Social Security protection for
which they and tlieir employees
have paid.
A representative of the Win
ston-Salem Social Seeurty office
is in Mocltsville on January 26 at
the courthouse, second floor, at
12:30 noon.

FARM OUESTIONS
ARE ANSWER®
Question: Do farmers have to
file federal income tax returns?
Answer: Yes, a federal income
tax return is required of all farm
ers whose gross income during
1948 was $600 or more even tiiough
no tax is due. The farmer fias
two. choices as to the filing ot
returns. 'He may (1) file a re
turn and pay the tax due by Jan
uary 15, 1949, or (2) file an esti
mate of the tax due and pay this
estimated tax by January 15, and
then file the return and pay any
balance duo by March 15.
It a declaration ot estimated
tax is made, foriT. lOiOES must
be used. Form 1040 is used for
reporting the annual income tax
payment but Form 1040F is used'
for computing the net farm prof
its. These forms may bo obtained
from local deputy collectors of
the Bureau of Internal Ilcvonuo
or by writing direct to the of
fice ot tlie colletcor in your dis
trict.
Certain alternative procedures
are allowed farmers in reporting
for Federal income tax purposes.
For example, farm indome may
be determined on the cash basis
or the accrual basis. The cash
basis includes only the cash re
ceipts from farm products sold
during the year minus the cash
expenses. Tlie accrual basis
takes into account not only the
net cash returns but also includes
inventory changes during the
year.
A proper record of farm re
ceipts and farm expenses is im
portant for preparing an accu
rate income tax return. For tax
purposes, however .only the fi
nancial results of the farm busi
ness need be reported. The bu
reau of internal revenue does not
insist that farmers keep records
in any special way. If the basic
facts are in writing, the neces
sary rearranging for income tax
purposes can be made.

G.N.WARD
Question; What special winter
care should my tractor get?
Answer: The owner should
drain out heavy summer oil and
replace it with winter oil of the
proper grade. If possible, the
crank pase pan should be removed
and all sediment cleaned out. If
the cooling system has no ther
mostat heat control, a radiator
curtain should be used to insure
an operating, tempertaure, of 160
to IW degrees. U the carburetor
is fitted with a heater by-pass
from the cKhaust, this shold be
adjusted for winter position. In
addition, spnfc plugs should be
cleaned and rsset to muihctur-
er’s specificatioBs, and the break
er points in the distributor diould
be given the same treatment A
complete check-up also requires
valve adjtutment. Finally, if the
tractor is to be used often during
the winter, anti-freeze should be
placed in the raditor.

MAKING ELECTRICITY FROM STEAM
Rivers rushing from the mountains across the Piedmont were this region’s first source
of electricity. To assure constant service, even in timss of drought and flood, steam
stations were added to the Duke Power system early in the 1920’s. Today, such sta
tions ore doubly necessary because of the demand for power in the busy Piedmont has
passed for beyond the limited potential of our rivers.

Counties of this area shared in
a record of 60,000 homes hooked
to REA electric lines in North
Carolina in 1948, according to
a report presented to Governor
Cherry last week by Gwynn B.
Price, chairman of the state’s ru
ral electrification authority.
, Over 10,000 miles were added
io North Carolina REA lines in
the past year, the report Aowed,
making a total of 40,8М.в7 miles

Mvately owned utilities, the re*
that the agency’s biggest job is
still ahead.
Its engineer, O. D. Barber, Jr.,
explained in an introduction toj
the figures that ‘>the nearer we,
get to the Tast farm the bigger the
problems become.”
“In number there are 96,986
farms in North Carolina without
electric service,” Barber wrote.
“This seems like a small job in
^mparison with that shown in
lilK.. Ifpjvever, it must be re*

I
Counties of this area have ben*
efited greatly from the REA pro

Here are the numbers of miles
A o(^|i|M.a9d.num

as outlined in the report:
Davie, 449.SS mUes and 2,434
users; Iredell, 772.67 miles and
4,341 users; Alexander, 330.44
miles and 1,883 users; Yadkin,

Wilkes, 624.36 miles and 5,131

Davie, Iredell, Alexander and
portions of the other counties of

with headquarters at Mocksville.

. The REA indicated, however,
“In the years ahead the tough
problems will te |n working out

trie lines can be extended into
these areas. Another reason mali^
ing the task more difficult is the
so-called bottleneck areas. Th«a
are small groups of people or (in
gle individuals living in htlween
lines of different electric «gcncies
or sometimes in between lines of
the same electric agency."
SeeeM IB Nallee
State and federal agricultural
agencies credit North Carolina
with 287,412 farms, the second
greatest number in the nation.
*• Ekteiiainr electfic
the last of these will not complete
the job of rural electrification.
Barber claimed.
‘*A problem facing rural elec
trification now," he explained, is
the necessity of getting an abun
dance of electric power to the
many rural points where it is
needed in the quantities needed
and at prices low enough to ac
celerate its use for the many pur
poses in which it can be utilized.
The present shortage of materials
and the high cost of construction
is working against the accom
plishment of this undertaking."

In checking over the minutes of
the recent county convention in
which three county committee
men and two alternates were
elected, the State office found
that the chairman, regular mem
ber and first alternate were elect
ed by plurality vote instead of by
majority, whereas the regulations
stated that voting must be done
by majority vote.
they found that the dele
gates and alternate delegates in
South Fulton and North and
South Farmington which were
elected to the county convention
were not eligible to serve. They
were not eligible because thy did
not qualify for payment and did
not receive any grant of aid ma
terial under the 1048 Agricultural
Conservation Program. Therefore
it was necessary that a new elec
tion be held in these communities.
This election was held on Decem

delegates were elected: South Ful

ton, R. A. Foster; South Farming

elected delegates and the three

gBk r O mds;** ■ -
Mr. Gartrell listed two primary
reasons for greater donations than
ever before during the campaign.
On the one hand there is the ever
present threat of a local infantile
paralysis epidemic, such as last
year’s crippling attacks in parts
of North Carolina and California,
while on the other is the tremen
dously high cost of after-care for
those stricken.
“Funds of local chapters were
soon exhausted,” Mr. Gartrell
said. <*Then they found how im
portant was the emergency fund
at national headquarters. Appeals
were promptly met with addi
tional funds.
“Similar epidemic conditions
may be duplicated in Davie coun
ty. Greater donations to the
March of Dimes campaign will
enablo us to fight back if the
dreaded disease hits at home.”

DR. YOUNG ENUGHTENS LOCAL
ROTARIANS ABOUT VHERINARY
Before local Rotarians, Davie
County’s genial veterinarian. Dr.
Clyde Young, vigorously attacked
the methods and aims of the so-
called anti-vivisectionist cult who
are attempting to push through
laws forbidding animal experi
mentation by medical science, un
der the guise of cruelty to ani
mals. Dr. Young pointed out the
false propaganda and weak argu-
mento of the anti-vivisectionists
and explained in detail how ani
mal experimentation was the ba
sis for all medical progress.
Dr. Young traced the history of
the profession of veterinary and
gave interesting facts and figures
concerning this profession. He
pointed out that at the present
time there were 175 veterinarians
in North Carolina, and approxi
mately 12,500 in the United States.
Six years of college and uiUver-
sity study are required tor a vet
erinarian, with a year’s inteme-
ship being required in two states,
Alabama and Pennsylvania. The
first veto{i||i^jaa ^ l ^ t b
Carolina in IM l
Dr. Young pointed out the work
of the veterinarian in eliminating
and controlling such livestock
plagues as hoof and mouth dis
ease, tul>erculosis, bangs disease,
lockjaw, etc. Dr. Young revealed
that North Carolina was the first
state to eliminate T.Bi infection
in cattle and that as the result tho
former almost common condition
of hunchback in people, which
has been attributed to TB infec
tion of the bone received from in
fected milk, has almost been elim
inated. Dr. Young, in closing;
stated that the chief aim of the
veterinary profession is to control
and eliminate disease before it
strikes.
W. M. Pennington presided in
the absence of President J. H .
Thompson, and paid tribute to
Dr. Young and his work since
coming to Davie county. Visitors
for the occasion were Mrs. Mar
garet McNeill, Edgu DtckeraoM,
and Miss Jane Click, pianiat, all

Imitation is one of the basic impulses of human life. From earliest infancy

SECRECY HAS NO PLACE IN GOVERNM ENT
‘‘Government should never be remote. The people are
entitled to know what is going on. It is my purpose to go
on the radio from time to time and make first hand reports
of my stewardship. I shall also make information about
our government available as fully and completely as pos
sible through the reporters of the press and radio. SECRE
CY HAS N O PLACE IN TH E PEOPLE’S GOVERNM ENT.”
Thus stated Govenor W . Kerr Scott in his inaugural ad
dress delivered last Thursday in Raleigh.
Whether it be on the national, state, county or munici
pality level, the government is “of the people, for the peo
ple and by the people.” Those governing bodies in control
are there to serve the best interests of these people as a
and report to them from time to time on their prog
ress and problems. The periodical reports of these Ixtdles
to the people have long lieen recognized as the life blood of
a democratic form of government and many of the reports
are made mandatory by the State of North Carolina.
W . Kerr Scott has gained the admiration and respect
of the press, radio and people by this forthright declaration
of the proposed public relations policy for his administra
tion. When fully informed, the populace appreciates the
problems a government encounters, the progress made, and
will vigorously support a progressive government.
Draft Quotas For Two
Months^ Are Canceled....
Washington.—^The army an
nounced this week that it will
draft no men in February and
Mareli.
It canccled an original call for
5,000 me nin February.
Army Secretary Royall said
that “voluntary enlistments and
rc-cnlistments, averaging 33,000 a
month for the last two months,
have made selective service calls
unnecessary for the next two
months.”
Noting that the selective scrvice
act requires the army to limit its
draft calls to the difference be
tween raquiromcnts and intake
throush voluntary enlistments,
he said:
“As long as voluntary enlist
ments and ro-enlistments remain
sufficient to maintain the strength
of tho ariny there will be no calls
for inductions.”
The air force and navy have
not used tlie draft system.
The name Vermont is derived
from the French "verd mont”
meaning green mountains.

Those present voted to join with
the Presbyterians for the month
of January, to hear Mrs. E. H.

book of the year which is ‘«Chi
na-Twilight or Dawn,” by Frank
in North Carolina.
The above publications will be
used in preparing articles here
and in addition, information about
local county schools will appear
aâ occasion arises.
When we begin a discussion of
our schools we naturally would
ask: “To what minimum educa
tional advantage is every child
entitled?”
The Education Commision has
answered this question as fol
lows:
A competent teacher interested
in him as a person.
A building that provides a safe,
sanitary, comfortable and attrac
tive school home.
Safe, dependable and comfort
able transportation to and from
school if he lives beyond reason
able walking distance.
Experience in school that will
develop in him the skills and at
titudes and understandings that
he and society need.
Personal guidance and oppor
tunities to develop the special in
terests and abilities he may have,
such as music, art and mechanics.
We should guarantee and pro
vide a well-roimded, balanced
program of minimum essentials,
determined by the needs of chil
dren, youth and adulU.

Raleigh—"Be a ‘winter winner'
against traffic accidents!” ’
That’s the advice of S. L. Gay-

Highway Safety Division of the
Department of Motor Vehicles.
"When driving in rain, gleet, or
snow,” Gaynor saii*, "every mo
torist should be especially alert
at the wheel and have the proper
equipment to cope with winter
conditions.” Statistics show that
accident rates increase from 24
to 53 per cent during ice and snow
months, according to the National
Safety council.
Gaynor urged all North Caro
lina motorists to study endorsed
methods of reducing accidents and
fatalities caused by poor visibility
and other hazards of the winter
season.

Air Force Will Increase
Aviation Cadet Training
The U. S. Air Force will in-
•cfease*Its" âViatlôn cadet’training
program from three classes to
eight classes a year, beginning in
April, 1949, to permit more effi
cient use of aircraft, personnel,
and instruction schedules.
While the annual enrollment
will be larger than for any pre
vious peacetime year, the size of
each class will be reduced.
The next class, beglnnng April
, will initiate the expanded pro
gram. It will be limited to approx
imately 600 cadets. Classes of sim
ilar size will follow at intervals
of approximately six weeks. In
the October, 1948, class—the last
under the March-July-October
class system—1,300 students were
enrolled.
Men accepted for Air Force
aviation cadet training must be
between the ages of 20 and 26^
years, with two years of college
education or the ability to pass
equivalent ejcamination, and must
possess high moral, physical, and
personal qualifications.
The aviation cadet program pro
vides 12 months of flying, aca-
dcmic, and military training.
Graduates receive pilot’s wings, a
commision as a second lieutenant
in the Air Force Reserve, and
assignment to three years of ac
tive duty.
Outstanding graduates immed
iately receive commisions in the
Regular Air Fçrçe, All ipthff padr
liâtes have an opportunity while
on active duty to qualify for one
of the Regular commissions of
fered each year bythe Air Force.
For further information con
cerning this program contact your
local U. S. Army and U. S. Air
Force Recruiting Station. Which
is located in room 243 Post Office
Building, Winston-Salem, N. C.,

Poultry Suggeatimis
For January, 1949
Poultry and egg outlook: The
outlook for the productTon of
broilers )n 1949 is encouraging.
While some surpluses are antici
pated during the year, these are
anticipated during the year, these
are expected to be of a tempo
rary nature and should not dis
turb or interrupt the production
program for the year. The out
look for the production of com
mercial eggs also appears to be
very encouraging and it is antici
pated that the demand for chicks
for replacement purposes will be
strong. There are many factors
that influence the efficient pro
duction of both poultry meat and
eggs and these should be watched
very, closely by the farm people.
As an example, the price of corn
could serve as a barometer and
could suggest an expansion or re
trenchment in the production of
broilers. Most poultrymen and
some feed merchants are expect
ing the price of corn to be sta
bilized around 81.40 to $1.45 per
bushel. If this happens, it will
mean a favorable price for poul
try meat produced. The feed-egg
ratio is favorable at present.
1949 resolutions: Now is the
time to make your New Year’s
resolutions. In making poultry
resolutions, take an inventory of
your business and resolve to in
crease the efficiency of your poul
try enterprise, even though you
have only a small unit. The fol
lowing are resolutions; if made
and kept they will prove helpful
in improving your efficiency and
increase your poultry profits:
Resolve to purchase only high-
quality chicks that are free from
pullorum disease and chicks bred
to do the job that you want done.
Use, at all times, a high quality
feed and feed for maximum re
sults. ,.
Provide sufficient room for the
chicks to live and grow. Avoid
crowded conditions.
Follow a definite sanitation
program in the house and provide
a resurface or board walk on the
outside immediately in ironi of
the brooder houM if tooted in
LIBRARY ADDS

persons receiving old-age and
survivors insurance benefits is a
child under 18. We have had
many inquiries asking if a wage
earner’s step-child can receive
the same amount as his own chil
dren. A step-child receives as
much benefit as a wage earner’s
own child. However, before
monthly benefits can be paid to
a step-child, certain requirements
must be met. In the case of a
living retired worker, the child
must be a step-child by a mar
riage that has existed for at least
36 months before the application
is filed. The child must be un
married and under 18 years of
age. The child must be depend
ent on the worker at the time the
application is filed. If a child is
living with or being supported by
his own father he would not be
considered dependent on his step
father. In the case of a deceased
worker the child must be a step
child by a marriage that has ex
isted for at least 12 full calendar
months before he died. Other re
quirements are: the child must be
unmarried; must be under 18; and
must have been dependent upon
the worker at the time of the
worker’s death.
Recently a widow came into our
office and gave the interviewer
the /0]J9WiU5 facts: Her husband
had died two months befoff She
had been married to him for Môrè
than two years. She had one child
one >tw oM and another child by
a prior marriage who was seven
years old. She asked it benefits
could be obtained for the chil
dren. She said that Ijer husband
had told her he had been work
ing under the Social Security Act
since it began and for her to get
in touch with the local office if
he should die. But neither her
husband nor herself had ever
checked with the office to see if
the husband’s step-child was eU
gible. We were, happy to inform
the widow that }x>th children
would get monthly benefits until
they became 18 and that each
would get the same amount.
You see, the widow knew that
the wage earner’s child would be
entitled to benefits but did not
know whether or not the step
child could receive benefits. For
tunately, she and her husband had
discussed old-age and survivors
insurance so she knew where to
get the answers to her question.
She also knew that the claim had
to be filed within three months
after the month in which her hus
band died to prevent loss of ben
efits.

to the state college. The cotton
was ginned, and the following es
timates were made by the cotton
specialists: Seed cotton per acre;
percent lint; lint per acre; lint on
the five acres; staple length.
Mr. Koontz’s estimated yield of
lint was 4,900 pounds on the five
acres. The land on which this
cotton grown was in wheat and
red clover in 1047. The cotton
had to be planted over May, 1948.
He used 2,900 pounds of 3-12-6
fertilizer on the five acres of the
first planting. No other fertilizer
was used.
The average estimated lint per
acre of ttiose In the contest was
808 pounds.
Poor stands of cotton caused
some yields to be lower than oth
ers, and some of the planted over
crops did not have time to ma
ture before first.
The county agent’s office ap
preciates the cooperation given
them by these contestants and we
hope to have each of them and
more enter the same contest in
1840.

OUR SCHOOLS TODAY
A N D TOM ORROW
What is our most serious edu
cational problem?
Undoubtedly our most critical
school problem is that of provid
ing enough qualified teachers for
our white elementary schools in
the state. There^ are j[re_n.(iW.-a^
■OOOleachers, teaching 100,000 ele
mentary and high school children,
without proper training. We need
this many teachers plus the num
ber it would take to reduce the
teacher load from the present 33
children to 30 pupils in average
daily attendance per teacher.
Teacher education institutions
in North Carolina graduated only
199 white persons who are quali
fied to teach in the elementary
schools, and only 150 of these
started teaching last fall. This
year one of our teacher training
colleges has 70 graduates who
plan to teach, of this number only
eight plan to teach in the primary
and grammar grades.
How then are we going to pro
vide enough teachers? Obviously
we catmot get them from other
states. These other state«,, in
most cases, pay more salary to
teachers.

Psychiatrist Speaks
To Local Rotarians
Dr. Lloyd Thompson, professor
ot psychiatry at the Bowman Gray
School of Medicine, and former
colonel and senior consultant for
the Europe^ Theatre during
World War II, gave local Rota
rians glimpses into his work and
of the purposes of psychiatry at
the weekly meeting Tuesday.
Dr. Thompson revealed that 47
per cent -of all those occupying
hospital beds are there because of
mental conditions, although many
possess physical symptoms. That
over 50 per cent of the total hos
pital patients are mental patients,
and that approximately 200,000
people are admitted to mental
hospitals each year. Also that
from 25 to 30 per cent of all pa
tients seeing a general practition
er were due to emotional prob
lems, although they possessed
physical symptoms. Dr. Thomp
son stated that the purpose of
psychiatry was to help the patient
40 understand self and to grow
up emotionally and socially. He
cited instances of the steps taken
both at the Bowman Gray School
Robert S. McNeill, prominent
local attorney, paid tribute to the
purpose ot the Junior Chamber
of Commerce organization, and
proposed several projects for
civic and| community improve
ment that might be deemed wor
thy by the Jaycees to sponsor.
Mr. McNeill gave his first im
pression of Mocksville when his
work in the early 1920’s required
that he be transferred here. He
described his first impression of
Mocksville as being a god-forsak
en wilderness without any lights
and with plenty of muddy streets.
He traced the evolution of the
town from that time until the
present, depicting the growth,' im
proved conditions, brought about
through the efforts of the Young
Men’s Business and Profesional
club of Mocksville, that later
joined the Lions International and
existed for many years under that
name.
Mr. McNeill stated that history
had shown thdl youth was most
alway symMic of progress, and
that today youth was being look
ed to for the advancement of the
town of Mocksville. That any
town that wishes to grow and

Meat Inspection Ordinance Is
Recommended To Commissioners
The Davie County Board of county commissioners, or, in case
Commissioners has under consid
eration ' the passage of an ordi
nance requiring inspection by a
qualified veterinarian of all fresh
meat sold in Davie county except
such surplus meat as may be sold
by farmers, states Carl E. Shell,
sanitarian.
State laws govern the slaugh
ter of animals intended for sale
to the public for human consump
tion, but there is no state law re
quiring either ante-mortem or
post-mortem inspection. Inspec
tion of fresh meat is usually con'
trolled by local governing bodies
Mch u ^ Bowd of HMiltii. the
of a town, by the town commis
sioners. ^
Most of the counties surround
ing Davie have ordinances requir
ing all fresh meat to be inspect
ed before it is ottered for sale.
Local slaughterers are at a dis
advantage in trying to sell their
meat in adjoining towns, and.tta
general consumer is at the mercy
of any unscrupulous dealer be
cause Davie county baa never
been able to work out a satirfae-
tory method of meet inspectiak
Public health officials are k»-
Urested .in the p u s » of
in ortar to
the spread of diseases that may
be contracted from unwholesome
meat or meat products. Slaugh
terers want their meat inspected
in order that they may sell it in
adjoining counties that require
such inspection. And the general
public is interested in meat in

continuing to prosper through
out the county.
The Central Telephone com
pany expanded its facilities in
Davie county during the past year
more than in any recent years.
A new underground cable has
been completed in the business
district, enabling better service

Poycliiatriat Speaks
To Local Rotariano
Dr. Lloyd Thompson, professor
of psychiatry at the Bowman Gray
School of Medicine, and former
colonel and senior consultant for
th* EuropeAi Theatre during
World War II, gave local Rota-
rians glimpses into his work and
of the purposes of psychiatry at
the weekly meeting Tuesday.
Dr. Thompson revealed that 47
per cent of all those occupying
hospital beds are there because of
mental conditions, although many
possess physical symptoms. That
over 50 per cent of the total hos
pital patients are mental patients,
and that approximately 200,000
people are admitted to mental
hospitals each year. Also that
from 25 to 30 per cent of all pa
tients seeing a general practition
er were due to emotional prob
lems, although they possessed
physical symptoms. Dr. Thomp
son stated that the purpose of
psychiatry was to help the patient
40 understand self and to grow
up emotionally and socially. He
cited instances of the steps taken
both at the Bowman Gray School
Robert S. McNeill, prominent
local attorney, paid tribute to the
purpose of the Junior Chambtr
of Commerce organization, and
proposed several projecta for
civic and| community improve
ment that might be deemed wor
thy by the Jaycees to sponsor.
Mr. McNeill gave his first im
pression of Mocksville when his
work in the early 1920’s required
that he be transferred here. He
described his first impression of
Mocksville as Ixiing a god-forsak
en wilderness without any lights
and with plenty of muddy streets.
He traced the evolution of the
town from that time until the
present, depicting the growth,' im
proved conditions, brought about
through the efforts of the Young
Men’s Business and Profesional
club of Mocksville, that later
joined the Lions International and
existed for many years under that
name.
Mr. McNeill stated that history
had shown thát youth was most
alway symtelic of progress, and
that today youth was being look
ed to for the advancement of the
town of Mocksville. That any
town that wishes to grow and
Meat Inspection Ordinance Is
Recommended To Commissioners
The Davie County Board of county commissioners, or, in case
Commissioners has under consid
eration ' the passage of an ordi
nance requiring inspection by a
qualified veterinarian of all fresh
meat sold in Davie county except
such surplus meat as may be sold
by farmers, states Carl E. Shell,
sanitarian.
State laws govern the slaugh
ter of animals intended for sale
to the public for human consump
tion, but there is no state law re
quiring either ante-mortem or
poat-mortem inspection. Inspec
tion of fresh meat is usually con
trolled by local governing bodies
such IS th® Botrd.ctf Htilth, thft

Most of the counties surround
ing Davie have ordinances requir
ing all fresh meat to be inspect
ed before it is offered for sale.
Local slaughterers are at a dis
advantage in trying to sell their
meat in adjoining towns, and the
general consumer is at the mercy
of any unscrupulous dealer be

been able to work out a satiirfw-

Long-Handled equipment need
ed by homemakers:
Even small considerations count
is saving time and strength on
cleaning jobs around thei house,
household equipment specialists
believe. For example, tho length
of the handle of any cleaning tool
is important because it affects
the stooping which causes un
necessary fatigue.
In brushing up floors a long-
handled dust pan and a push
broom are recommended instead
of the common short-handleed
dust pan and dust brush because
the long iiandles save back-bend
ing. -.Before'buyings a vacuum
cleaner, it is a good idea to try
it out to see whether the handle
is the right lengtii for comfort
able use.
When waxing the floors, spare
the bacic by using a long-handled
I waxer.
When washing kitchen or bath
room floors, use a long-handled
mop rather than the ardous hands-
I and-knees method.
Even in dishwa^ing a handle
may prevent stooping. If the

The mounting toll taken by in

nel, Rev. E. H. Gartrell, Davie
county chairman of the 1949
March of Dimes, declared today.
“Noting a serious national
shortage of qualified physical
therapists in the polio field," Mr.
Gaitvcll said, “the national foun
dation for Infantile Paralysis, in
.September, 1942, awarded its first
phy.sical therapy scholarship.
Since then some 1,100 such schol
arships have boon made by the
organization to date. As a re
sult. about one in every four qual
ified physical therapists in the
nation today has received train
ing tiirough this^ National Foun
dation program."
Mr. Gartrell declared that some
2,.i00 professional persons have
received training for work with
polio patients under the Nation
al Foundation’s educational proj
ects. Mr. Cartrell explained also
that scholarships and fellowships
have been made, and are avail
able for research in fields related
to polio. “These.’include virology,
orthopedics, pediatrics, neurology
and epidemiology,” Mr. Gartrell
said. «‘Postgraduate study is also
underwritten for physicians in
public health, orthopedic surge
ry, physical medicina and pedi-
atvics.”
Pointing out that residents of
every state in the union, as well
as persons living in the Posses
sions, have benefited by these
scholarships, Mr. Gartrell said:
“Mauch of Dimes funds pay for
this heavy expense. To e.vpand
this work in proportion to the rise
in polio incidence, we must break
all records] during the present
March of Dimes campaign which
ends January 31. Wo must give
more to the 1949 March of
Dimes.”

FARMERS ADVISED
TQ TEST SOILS
The use of the proffer analysis
and amounts of fertilizer for the
production of certain crops is
more important than the average
farmer realizes. Some people
seem to think that if they use a
certain fertilizer, regardless of
the analsis and in the amounts
that have been used for years,
they are using proper treatments.
However, different crops on dif-
I ferent types of soil require dif-
j ferent amounts and analysis of
I fertilizer and lime.
I Any farmer can take samples
I from his fields and send them to
the Soil Testing Division, State
Department of Agriculture, Ra
leigh, N. C., where the sample will
be tested and a report of the
needs of the crop to be grown on
' that field will be sent directly to
the farmer. This service is free.
The farmer will have to pay the
'postage necessary to get the sam
ples to Raleigh, however.
Every farmer should have each
of his fields tested. The matter
of testing soils is too important to
neglect.

supply of the soils boxes, so mak*

A G O O D RESOLUTION
A few weeks ago the New Year was greeted throughout
the nation with prayer and song and dance. We said good
bye to 1948, extended a welcoming hand to the Newcomer,
and exchanged mutual expressions of hope with our friends
tliat the New Year would prove happy and prosperous.
At the same time, the great majority of Americans
gave some thought to New Year resolutions. Most of us
might even have kept some of tiiem, right up to this “late”
date. But if we did not, there still is a chance to redeem
ourselves right now.
There is one resolution every man, woman and child
should make and keep. It is an easy one. It entails little
or no sacrifice. It will give you a grand feeling—but more
important, it will help bring back to health youngsters you
may know, or have heard of, or perhaps n^ver even knew
existed.
That resolution is simply to: “JOIN THE M ARCH O F
DIMES, JANUARY.” The dimes and dollars given to the
1949 appeal of the National Foundation-for Infantile Paral
ysis will enable that organization to rebuild chapter funds
exhausted during last year’s polio epidemics—which were
comparable to those of 1916, worst in history.
You will never miss the dime or dollar you contribute
Resolve not to give generously to the BIARCH OF DIMES.
You may be sure you will share in the prayers of thousands
of little ones. You will write the score for a song ot a
brighter future. Yes, these polio-stricken children may
even be able to dance again . . . because YOU helped.

A. A. A.CM M IUM
On January M there was part
of the facts in regard to the re
daction of A.A.A. committee. One
thing waa overlooked. The whole
truth. Sometimes getting iustjpart
ol the truth causes us to miKon-
ceive the actual (acU .of an « •
tira aituation.
Siim thia is a tarm program,
it is only fair to the farmtra of
Davia cmiaty that they know the
whola truth about » thing so vi
tally important as tha elactioa ol
their coaunitt««^ men who are to
aerve tham aad look out for their
interest aa well aa the interest
of the program.
After the State committee was
ask^ to review the minutes of
the county convenUon ot Dec. 9,
1M8, they found that the meth
od ot plurality voting had been
used, as it was made a motion,
seconded and carried when voted
on by the IS delegates present.
This method was not used in elect*
ing one or two officers, but
throughout the entire convention.
So don’t let anyone fool you by
making the false impression there
were “stunts" pulled over you by
the delegates using one method
of voting on one office holder
and another method for another
—each had an equal chance. This
same way of voting had been used
before, under the same fieldman,
Mr. Van Johnston’s supervision;
with no fault being found. How
ever, that is not and has not been
in accordance with the regula
tions to elect the county com
mittee by plurality without get
ting prior approval from the state
office.
The little flaw in voting did
not seem to be the main object in
having the minutes reviewed for
after the chairwoman, as‘ elected
in this convention aesigned Iwr
cause she was not eligit)le tf> serve
siact she had not drawn a soil
chaek or granted aid of mgteiW
in htr n|mo Instead of har hus-
>«i4.«id
for services through the program,
even though she served as chair
man of community committee two
years as community committee
assistant one year and has meas
ured 90 percent of the tobacco
crops in her community for the
past three years; was born, raised
and farmed in Davie county prac
tically ail her life—yet not qual
ified tor county committee; Mr.
Van Johnston offered the sug
gestion to step the other officers
up as elected in this same con
vention to avoid another election,
thiu making the vice-chairman
chairman, regular membar vic»r
chairman, etc. Since it seemed
to be tlio sentiment of the group
to follow tho law so closely so
far, oligiblo delegates were da-
mondoji to constitute a lawful-
election; hence the second eloe-'
tion tor quaUfiod delegates and
alternates was called after aeve-
ral farm reports were callod for

APPEALS FOR POLIO PERSONNEL SET
ALtTIMEHt6Hi№«48EPIDEMie
When rccoid polio epidemics
hit North Cnrolina last summer,
urgent appeals for physical the
rapists ond nurses for emergency
duty poured into the National
Foundation for Infantile Paraly
sis. Rev. E. H. Gartrell, 1949
March ot Dimes chairman ot Da
vie county, revealed today.
‘‘Despite tlie acute shortage of
these professional persons, the
need was mot,” Mr. Gartrell said,
‘‘although the National Founda
tion and its chapters were hard-
pressed to supply the demand
due to the e.\tremely high case
load of patients.”
Mr. Gartrell disclosed that at
the peak of the polio season the
National Foundation, with the
cooperation ot the American Phy
sical Therapy association, the
American Red Cross and otiier
groups and individuals, was able
pliysical therapists and 1,500
to put into the field some 200
nurses. The majority of these
vltally-needed polio fighters wore
on duty in North Carolina, Cali
fornia and Texas, he said, and
200 other hard hit states were
supplied with trained personnel
for emergency duty.
“Salaries, maintenance and
transportation of all physical
therapists and nurses who served
polio patients last summer,” Mr.
Gartrell said, “were paid for by
Marcli of Dimes funds.
“Until research finds a preven
tive or cure for polio,” Mr. Gar
trell concluded, “treatment is all
imperative. We must have at
liand sufficient money to meet
the costs of patient caro. It is
only through the March ot Dimes
that this work can be financed.

Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors
Insurance in Baltimore, Md.,
shows that about 2,300,000 per
sons throughout the nation are
now receiving monthly payments
under the Federal Social Security
program at an average monthly
rate of almost 40 million dollars.
This is an all-time ‘‘high" tor the
Old-Age and Survivors Insurance
program, said Mrs. Ruth Duffy,
manager ot the Winston-Salem
Office of the Social Security Ad
ministration, who reported these
figures locally. One year ago the
payments were being made to
to about 1,975,000 persons at an
average montlily rate in e.'ceess
ot 38 million dollars.
Under the Social Security Act,
monthly insurance payments are
made to qualified workers in

ment shows that monthly retire
ment payments totaled about
$366,000,000 in 1948. Payments
to survivors (ciiildren, widows
with young children in their
care, aged widows and aged par
ents) amounted to approximately
$177,000,000. An additional 32
million dollars was paid in lump
sums to survivors of insured
workers who were not immedi
ately eligible for monthly pay
ments.
Old-Age and Survivors Insur
anee is primarily a family insur
ance program, said Mrs. Duffy,
pointing to the fact that for the
nation as a whole (as well as lO'
cally) three of every fi\-e bene
ficiaries are women and children.
Approximately 13,200,000 wage
and salary earners now have life
time protection for] themselves
and their families under Old-Age
and Survivors Insurance through
completion of a required number
of years work in Social Security
jobs. This is an increase of 1,-
600.000 since the end of 1947.
These workers have at least some
protection for life, regardless of
their future work history.
About 78,700,000 living persons
had some wages credited toward
future Social Security benefits at
the end of 1948, an increase of
1.800.000 persons over the num
ber reported a year ago. During
1948 some 50,000,000 persona re
ceived wagestin covered employ
ment.
The Social Security Adminis
tration believes that on the basis
of experience during the past 12
years H is feasible to extend So
cial Security coverage to employ*
ments now excluded, such as
farm work and domestic service
in private homes, as well as to
the self-employed persons, said
Mrs. Duffy.
A representative of the Social
Security Administration will be
in MocksviUe on January 26 at

"He Has Paid Dear, Very Dear, for His Whbtle
To the tnd of his life Franklin remembered the price he paid for his
first whistle— many times its worth.
Later, of another's bad bargain, he wrote, "He hos paid dear, very
deor, for his whistle."
The qualities for which F/anklin is remembered are a searching
mind that discarded the worthless and held on to the real, determina
tion to advance throDgh self-improvement and productive work, and
an honest respect for thrift.
Franklin risked his neck to Incorporato these quolities into a new
government.'
On his birthday tomorrow, let us imagine Franklin reviewing the
American scene.
Comss the uncomfortable thought that, appraised by this early
citizen, we are paying "very dear" In American character for the
privilege of avoiding the responsibilities upon which the American

P A G E S THE M O C K S m L E (N. C.) ENTERPRISE FRH)AY, JANUARY 21,1M9
M O K E ABOUT
Y O U R SCHOiDLS
the sophomore year, have given
the following reasons why they
"cfo" 'ndl” plan" To" teach" й:КооГ:"Г,'
Low salaries, as compared to oth
er work; 2. Poor equipment and
poor building facilities; 3. Not
enough retirement allowance; 4.
Too many pupils in a class; 5.
Lack of normal social life; 6. Un
pleasant working conditions; 7.
Unfair adult attitudes.
Obviously people who expect
to teach school in the future also
expect to be treated as normal
human beings in the communities
in which they work. To get teach
ers the community will need to
make teaching more attractive if
the best people are secured for
the classrooms.
Salaries will have to be raised
to the extent that teaching will
be financially attractive to young
people. This salary increase
must of necessity go beyond the
salary ot those who hold com
mercial positions that carry only
minor responsibilities. Teaching
is a job of great responsibility
and salaries will need to be in
keeping with this responsibility
It teachers are secured and elect
to remain in our classrooms.
The legislative program in
Morth Carolina it found in Bill
H .8 .2 introduced by Umstead and
others calling tor $2,400 minumum
oalary tor teachers holding Class
A certificates with sufficient
Srearly increments over a 12-year
period to hold experienced teach-
•la.
House Bill H. S. 3 introduced
bjr Umstead and others providing
for an appropriation of $50,000 to
assist counties in their building
ycograms.
Last week the Budget com-
niasion recommended a 20 per
cent increase tor teachers and
Farm Bureau Meets
At Wm. R. Davie
Davie county farm leaders are
gseatly -concerned .about .the. sue.-..
cess of the Farm Bureau organ
ization in surrounding counties.
They are interested in organizing
and securing a large membership
of Davie farmers into this farm
organization. Farm organizations
have done a great deal of good
for the farmers. Few farmers
realize the good that the Farm
Bureau hr', dor” and is doing for
them.
Last yepr several auenpts were
made to organize and strengthen
the Farm Bureau in Davie county
on a county wide basis. The re
sults were very discouraging.
This year an attempt ot organ
izing will be undertaken on a
township basis. A meeting of
farm families of the Clarksville
township will be held at the Wm.
R. Davie school, Wednesday night,
February 2. R. Flake Shaw, ex
ecutive vice-preisdent of the
North Carolina Farm Bureau,
will speak and answer questions
concerning the value ot being a
member ot the Farm Bureau. Re
freshments will be served to all
present.
Although they are concentrat
ing on the Clarksville townshiu,
M. D. Pope, president, and S. H.
Chaffin, secretary, ot the Davie
Farm Bureau, made it clear that
all other people in Davie county
who are interested In the Farm
Bureau and the job it is doing
are cordially Invited to attend
this meeting.

OUR SCHOOLS TODAY
A N D TOM ORROW
What is the legislative program
of the united forces for educa
tion?
Discussion of this question
would naturally raise another
question, viz; What groups in the
State make up the united forces
for education?
In the first place, we may say
it is all interetsed groups who
have united their efforts for the
purpose of pushing the program
of state public education to the
end that every child may re
ceive the educational opportuni
ties to which he is entitled. These
groups are: The Parent-Teacher
organization ot North Carolina,
the North Carolina Grange, the
North Carolina Education asso
ciation, the North Carolina Edu
cation commission, the State
Board of Education, departments
ot superintendents, principals,
classroom teachers, and many
civic organizations throughout
the state. Membership in these
organizations runs into hundreds
of thousands ot school minded
peoples.
The principal points of the leg
islative program proposed by and
presented to the Legislature of
1949 are: 1. Supervision of ele
mentary education, to be located
in each county and paid bV the
state. 2. 117 attendance officers
to be located in attendance dis
tricts to be set up by the state.
3. Clerical assistants for larger
schools. 4.-State and federal aid
in the construction of school
buildings in the various counties
of the state. 5. Purchase of orig
inal buses by the state instead of
by the counties as at present. 6.
Special instructors for exception
al children. 7. $2,400 yearly as a
minimum salary for beginning
teasers with Class A certificates
and iBfireamento .afch year ot
EXCEEDS GOAL
The Davie county Christmas
seal sale exceeded the quota set
by the State association for 1948.
A report from the treasurer, Miss
Jane McGuire, and the secretary,
Miss Ossie Allison, shows receipts
over the goal of $800 as set in
November and a total of $834.87
collected.
Curtis Price, chairman for Da
vie county, and all chapter offi
cers wish to thonk every person
contributing so generously this
year.
The local chapter of the North
Carolina Tuberculosis association
assisted Yadkin and Stokes coun
ty in the purchase of an X-ray
machine to be used in the three
counties, which comprise a
health district. This machine,
which is portable, will be at the
Davie county health office as
headquarters.
The 1948 seal sale receipts are
as follows;
^ Mocksville and county, mailing
campaign, $395.30; Cooleemee,
mailing campaign, $107.79;

Faith in what tomorrow will
bring, and in the innate goodness

Local Polio Victim
Returns Home'
Uttle Richard Taylor, eight-
year-dd son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Taylor of Mocksville, returned
home last week from the con
valescent hospital at Greensboro,
where he has been a patient since
last September, when he was
stricken with infantile paralysis.
Richard was paralyzed on his left
side, affecting shoulder, arm and
hand. However, because of the
expert treatmcsit rendered, Rich
ard is gradiully overcoming this
affliction and has limited use of
his arm and leg. Richard will
return each week to Greensboro
to undergo further treatments
and checkups in addition to the
treatmenta he is receiving at

FARM BUREAU I
GREAT BENEFIT
North Carolina farmers need
only compare commodity prices
of 1932 with those of 1948 to ap
preciate what Farm Bureau means
and how small the membership
fee is in comparison with the or
ganization’s benefits. Perry L.
Alexander, Matthews, Mecklen
burg county, FB president, de
clared this week.
*<The annual membership fee
for Farm Bureau is only $3,” A1
exander pointed out “In other
words, a farmer’s sale of 6 pounds
of tobacco, 10 pounds of cotton,
25 pounds ot peanuts, 12 pounds
of hog, or 6 pecks ot potatoes
would bring enough to pay his
membership in the organization.
“Just compare this with 19Sl
In that year, a Fanh Bureau
membership of $3 would have re
quired the farmer to sell SO
pounds ot tobacco, 60 pounds of
cotton, 300 pounds of pewuts,
60 pounds of hog, or 30 pounds
of potatoes.”
"These figures show two
things,” Alexander said. “First,
if it weren’t for the militant fight
Farm Bureau has constantly
waged on the national, state,
county and community level for
farmers down through the years,
we still would be receiving far
les sfor our producta than we are.
Secondly, the membership fee in
Farm Bureau is very small when
you look at the gains farmers
have achieved because of the
steady drive the organizi^tion car
ries on for us.
“None of us wanta to return to
the barren, low-price days of
1932, but if we don’t organize to
the hilt, just as other groups are
organized, we could very well
lose all or much of the gains we
have made. Every farmw . in
Nwth Carrolina should be a mem
ber of Farm Bureau, and the time
to join is now—during the an-
ntial aiemberihlpeampalia.which
has a ««iota of <W.OOO.»
at North Cooleemee.
All plans and procedures will
be carried out u ^ r rtdes and

GOV. scon TELLS
HOW TO FINANCE
THE RURAL ROADS
Raleigh — Governor Scott last
night proposed a $200,000,000 ru
ral road building program and
asked that one cent a gallon be
added to the gasoline tax to help
finance it.
The governor urged the law
makers to pass legislation au
thorizing a $200,000,000 bond is
sue to “be submitted to the peo
ple in a special election to be held
as early as possible.”
. The funds would be used, the
governor said, to hard-surface
12,000 miles of country roads and
“to improve the rest of our rural
roads sufficiently to make sure,
by the end of the next four years,
that bad road conditions cannot
interrupt school bus service, nor
seriously impede transporttaion
of farm produce to market — or
workers to industry.”
The governor appeared before
a joint session of the General As-1
sembly last night to deliver his
road message.
“The people are demanding
that something be done to lift
them out of the mud," the gover
nor asserted.
The governor said that an ad
ditional one cent levied on gaso
line would produce about $7,000,-
ООО a year and that this, plus
what is now being used to finance
the present highway debt, “would
in large part Uke care of the
bond ittuc 1 recommend.” The
highway Gommision is spending
$5,612,864 for debt service next
year and $4,440,466 in 1»4»-S1.
North Carolina highway users
now pay Ш total gasoline tax ot
7 % cent« per gallon, of which
l.S cento ia federal tax and one-
fourth ot « cent is a gaaoline in
spection fee. Bevenue from 6
cenU ot the tax, minus coeta of
collection, goes into the highway
fund.
A total of about $14,500,000 a
year would be required to repay
the $200,000,000 bond issue, the
governor said, ‘‘under provisions
for its full retirement in 20 years.”

TOBACCO VARIETIES
ARE RECOM M ENDED
The time will soon be at hand
for tobacco plant beds to be sown.
Some varieties do better than
others in Davie county, and it
would be soupd business to sow
the variety that has proved to be
a high producer of the light, thin
grades of tobacco that are in
greatest demand, states F. E. Pee-,
bles, county agent. Weight of to
bacco is important so long as it is
of the quality that buyers pay the
highest prices for. The demand
for heavy, bony, rough tobacco is
growing less and leu.
The presence of the black shank
disease in the soil is worthy of
consideration.
On high class tobacco soils
where black shank is not too se
vere and where a two or three
year rotation is followed, Oxford
No. 1 is a good variety. However,
on stiff soils and under dry con
ditions the tobacco tends to be
narrow, heavy body and dark in
the upper one-third of the plant.
Vesta No. 30 is recommended
where black shank is severe and
a rotation is not followed.
The following varieties do vrell
in this section of the state, and
they produce the types of tobacco
that sell for high prices; Silver
Dollar, Yellow Special, Lemon
Bright, 400, 4001, 402, Mammoth
Gold, Yellow Mammoth, Gold
Dollar.
The 400, 4001 and 402 varie
ties seem to grow pretty big and
rough on fertile sandy loam. On
other soils they do well.
Silver Dollar, Yeliow Special
and Lemon Bright are good, broad
leaf favorites that yield high and
cure out to desired colors.

SOCIAL SECURITY
...By. ,Mw., Ruth O.. Duttx, M ft. .
Most everyone thinks of Old*
Age and Survivors Insurance as
a retirenieht plan for those who
are 65 years old or older. Actualr
ly the program benefits many
other groups, especially children.
•You may be skeptical as was an
employee of a small concern with
whom I talked several days ago
who said ‘‘How. will Social Se
curity help my children?" I’ll
tell you as I told him. That ac
count number card you carry with
you amounts to much more than
just your name and a long num
bcr. It represents an insurance
policy on which you make pay
ments every time your employer
hands you a pay check. And, in
ease of our death, your minor
children, if they are dependent
on you, are tlie chief beneficia
ries. The payments begin with
the month of death and continue
until each ot your chilrden reach
es the age of 18.
You have probably asked your
self a dozen times, “If something
happened to me, how would my
family get along? How far could
my wife stretch the monthly pay
ment from my life insurance?"
Here is an actual case where So
cial Security benefits are a great
help to a small family. I won’t
use the real names. Mrs. Stevens
told me that her husband had
died leaving three small children.
After talking with her a while, I
realized that I had seen her hus
band often on my trips to that
section of the area. He was an
was an attendant at a gas station
where I often stopped for service
and for directions to various parts
of the county.
I helped Mrs. Stevens complete
an application for Social Security
benefits for heraelf and the three
children. I could not tell her at
the time how much she would
receive but assured her that there
would be monthly payment«. Af
ter securing a record of her hus
band's earnings from our Central
Office in Baltimore, I wrote her
that she would get $50 a month
for herself and children. I later
saw her. She said that when she
first talked with me she had no
idea how she waa going to get
along with the small monthly pay
ments from the insurance policy
her husband carried, but with
the $90 from Old-Age and Sur
vivors Insurance the could get
by if the budgeted carefully. Thit
it only one of the many cates of
this kind handled each day by
Social Security Offices through
out the country. Your govern
ment provides this meUiod for
wage earners to build protection
for themselves and their families.

Recording of Polio
Victim Left
Unplayed By Parents
Asheville — A grieving couple
yesterday wished for courage to
play a phonograph record of the
hopeful words spoken by their
son on Christmas eve . . . three
days before he died of polio.
But a pretty young widow in
Birmingham, Ala., hoped she
could get a copy of the same rec
ord so 22-month-old Vicki could
hear her father's voice.
The disK was a recording made
at a Christmas eve party given
for polio victims by radio station
WLOS in Asheville. The victims
of polio, some on stretchers, oth-.
ers in wheel chairs and many of
them children in nurses’ arms,
were interviewed by an announc
er dressed as Santa Claus.
David Jasperson, 24, smiled
brightly as he said into the mi
crophone, “I hope to get out soon.”
Three days later he died.
Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Jasperson
of Fletcher received a copy of the
record Friday. The announcer
told them how hopeful the young
father had been during his last
moments of consciousness as he
spoke to radio listeners.
But the record still was silent
yesterday. ‘<We just haven't been
able to work up enough courage
to listen to it yet," his mother
Mid.
But pretty Betty Jasperson in
Birmingham said she would ask
the station for another copy of the
record so that little Vicki might
hear her father’s voice.
“About all that daddy means to
her now is the visits we made to
the hospital . . . the smells and
sounds . . . a smiling man in a
wheel chair waving at her through
a window.”
But Mrs. Jasperson said that
thick glass had frustrated her
husband’s efforts to talk to their
little girl.
Mortorists Asked
To Wait
Raleigh.—Arthur T. Moore, di

ed all motorists who do not have
to meet a January 31 inspection
deadline to wait until the lanes
are less crowded in order that
motorists who do have to meet the
deadline may get their vehicles
checked.
Moore said he had received nu
merous complaints and demands
from motorists that something be
done in order that vehicles facing
the deadline can get their inspec
tions. He added that the lanes
had been crowded all this year,

During the next, few days the American people will
write their own ticket against infantile paralysis, which in
the past six years has stricken n^ore than 100,000 of our
citizens.
One of the main facts to remember about polio is that
it is not primarily a fatal disease. Only about five to ten
persons out of a hundred who contract it will die. And
another fact is that 50 per cent of those infected Jjy polio
recover completely.
Yet, today there remains a drab overtone of darknss
in the infantile paralysis picture. When polio strikes with
paralytic force, often many lengthy years of hospitaliza
tion and treatment comprise the calendar of the disabled.
Aside from the victim’s pain and suffering, there is also
the cold factual problem of doctor and hospital bills. Not
one family in ten can afTord to pay for full or even partial
care of a case requiring more than a nominal hospital stayl
That’s where your March of Dimes steps in to lighten
the dark outlook. Besides financing research seeking the
final answer of how to prevent and cure polio, March of
Dimes funds are paying for the best available medical care
and treatment of polio patients throughout the nation . . .
whether or not they were stricken in the 1949 epidemics
or in years gone by-
Yes, not one family in ten can afford to pay when polio
strikes. But every family can contribute to the March of
Dimes. By so doing they help guarantee prompt and ade
quate aid to themselves and their neighbors should the
uisease attack them.
Remember the 1949 March of Dimes. Join in that
great parade. Every time you give a dime or dollar you
lend a mighty, helping hand.

Space is insufficient to discuss
all of these items in the legisla
tive program. I am sure you will
be interested in knowing mbre
about the purchase of school bus
es. We discussed supervision and
teachers’ salaries in an article!
last week.
Under the present law if an ad
ditional school bus is needed the
county is responsible for making
the purchase. After the bus is
worn out it is replaced by the
state at no additional cost to the
county.'
Should the proposed legislation
relating to purchase ot school bus
es pass the state would purchase
both the original bus and the re
placement bu*- In addition the
buses would be routed to within
one-halt mile ot children living
on passable roads.
Davie county would receive
great benefits from this propo.sad
legislation.
The problems of transporting
rural children to school would be
lessened and better service given.
The item oi aid to counties in
the construction and maintenance
of school buildings has been mis-
inlei'preted in many instances.
Many people liave been under the
false impression that the state
maintains school buildings in the
counties. No state funds are
available, at present, for building
classrooms nor for repairing
school buildings. The state pays
for part of the coal, all the salary
ot the janitor, and part of the
power and water bill. All other
Items of buildings and mainte
nance comes from county funds.
That is the reason for the bond
issue last summer.
Proposed legislation in 1949 is
that the state appropriate $50,-
