These Two Like Work
Tell Mr.. Caldwell They Want to BE
Busy, Pay or No Pay

There have been tales of un-
employed persons who are will
ing to accept money or supplies,
or both, from the government,
but who show no eagerness to
do work in return. Here is a
case of the opposite sort.
Several men on the govern
ment's relief list have been put
to work for the town of Chapel
Hill. There is money enough to
pay them for only three days a
week. At the end of the three
days last week two of the men
came to J. l.. Caldwell, the town
manager, and one Of them said
eve want to keep on, even if we
don't get paid for it. We'd rath-
er be busy than be doing moth
ing"
"There was nothing phony
about their offer, either" says
Mr.. Caldwell. "They are good
workers, pay or no pay"

Food-Production Project Is Launched

George H. Lawrence, county
welfare officer, and Don Mathe-
son, county farm agent, are max
ing good progress with the food
production project launched as
part of the state wide relief
campaign.
The essence Of the project is
that farming families applying
for government aid must qualify
for it by raising corn, potatoes,
peas, beans, cabbages, and tur-
nips, and other vegetables with
which to satisfy their needs for
food next fall and winter. The
government and Tin the case of
tenant farmers) landlords are to
supply seeds and some fertilizer.

Permitted Now to Perform Only Certain Speci-
fed Functions, but It's Operations May
Be Enlarged before End of Week

After being closed Monday
and Tuesday, the Bank of Chap
ell Hill re-opened Wednesday for
the limited business permitted
under the modification order is
sued from Washington.
Here is what the bank is do
ing: 1t is giving access to safe
ty deposit boxes. 1t is making
change, subject to the rule that
it must not pay out gold coins or
gold certificates. 1t is accepting
cash for deposit in special trust
fund accounts which are kept
separate from old accounts and
may be drawn upon at will. CAT
present, however, these special
accounts are not subject to with
'drawal by checks sent out Of
town; depositors who want to
make withdrawals are asked to
come to the bank for their mon
ey). 1t is financing transactions
necessary to maintain the public
food supply.
The rules against Withdrawals
may be modified at any time.
The bank here, like banks all
over the United States, complies
with the orders from Washing
ton, and it does not know when
new order will be issued. The
operations permitted at this
writing (Thursday afternoon)
may be expanded by the time the
Weekly reaches its readers Fri
day morning. If you have occa-
sion to do any business at the
bank, look in the daily papers
for the latest dispatches from
Washington and then make in
quiries Of the bank officials.
The Bank of Chapel Hill had
no reason to close at all, as far
as it's own condition was con-
cerned; it closed only because Of
orders from the national and
state authorities. There was

The People in Chapel Hill Are Not
Made Gloomy by Bank Crisis

The people Of Chapel Hill are
taking the bank holiday in good
spirit.
The atmosphere that pervades
the village is far from one of
gloom. Rather, it is an at
mosphere of keen interest.
What next?" is on everybody's
tongue; but it is not foreboding !;
it is expectation and curiosity as
to the news that the radios and
the newspapers are to bring
from Washington.
Men and women go about their
daily tasks and pleasures with
the accustomed cheerfulness and
confidence. A spirit of coopera-
ton dominates the community.
There has been one exception
to this. A few persons have
rashed to the grocery stores to
lay in abnormal supplies of food
stuffs, unaware, no doubt, that
the boarding of food, as Of mon
ey, is contrary to the general
welfare. 1t is recalled that dur
ing the World War this was re-
garded as a form of social
treason" and of course it is not
in accord with the prevailing
sentiment Of Chapel Hill people.
The storing of food has a ten
dency to force prices up. And
there is no reason for the accu-
mutation of extra supplies, since
the government has authorized
the banks to finance normal food
requirements.

MOtOrist Gives Alarm
Stops to Notify NeighbOrhood That a
House Is on Fire

A motOrist passing along the
Pittsboro highway, about a mile
from Chapel Hill, yesterday af-
ternoon, saw sparks bursting
from the roof of the home Of Mr..
and Mrs. Feltner. There was no
evidence of excitement; in fact
there was nobody in sight; and
so the motorist decided that he
had better let the neighborhood
know about the fire sparks.
He stopped his car and mott
fed the family in the house
across the road from the Felt
ners'. This family spread the
alarm, and presently crowd of
volunteer fre-fghters was on the
job. The Lamar Stringfelds
came in from Southern Pines,
and as they approached they saw
their next-door neighbor's roof
swarming with men. Mr.. String
field joined them.
The fire was put out in a little
while.

quaint himself with their needs,
and aid them in carrying out the
program.
Notices have been circulated
through the county, to acquaint
farmers with the details of the
scheme. Every farmer who ap-
plies for aid from the federal,
state, or county government
must sign an agreement to fol-
low a definite food-production
schedule. The extent of plant
ing depends upon the number Of
persons in the family.
About 200 farmers met Mr..
Lawrence and Mr.. MathesOn at
McDade's store, in Cedar Grove
township, one day last week
to hear the plan explained. There
are to be similar meetings at
other places in the county.

Prices Hold Steady
Late News Indicates That Fear OF
Advance Is Not Justified

Articles published in the
newspapers this week caused
people to fear a considerable ad-
vance in the prices of food, but
later news indicates that the
fear is not justified.
1--WE have been selling things
at our usual prices, said eess
Fowler of the Model Market yes
terday; and at the NJ and other
stores there was no advance.
Mr.. Fowler said that the whole
salers from whom he had made
purchases this week had not
raised their figures.
On the front page of the
Neaps and Observer Tuesday ap-
peared the headline, Food
Prices Expected to Increase
Sharply Today" The headline
Wednesday was Banking Holi-
day Causes Commodity Price
Ascent" and yesterday a des-
patch from Chicago was headed
"Meat Prices Come Down as
New Supplies Arrive" The
despatch said: "Counteracting
yesterdays rise in livestock and
fresh meat prices, the farmers
from nearby states laid the spec
ter of a threatened shortage in
Jig time. Before the end of the
day prices of live hogs had fallen
40 cents a hundred pounds, and
prices of pork declined sharply.
The president of the Produce
Exchange in New York made the
laconic statement: Supplies of
basic food supplies Of all kinds
are most abundant" b"
The rise early in the week was
due to the uncertainty caused
by the bank holiday Uneasi-
ness was allayed by the gov
ernment's announcement that
the banks were authorized to
finance the shipment and hand
ling of foodstuffs.

Bank Here Re-Opens for
Limited Business under
Orders from WASHINGTON
"Business as Usual"
Commerce Pursues Its Even Course
Merchants Accept Checks

Business as Usual" has been
the watchword with Chapel Hill
merchants this week.
The bank holiday which be-
gan Monday has not brought any
alteration in their dealings with
their customers. They have CIV
en- credit to everybody to whom
they normally give credit, and
they have accepted checks just
as if these checks could be taken
to the bank and promptly
cashed. The consequence is that
they are holding great sheafs of
checks.
There are occasional excep-
tions to this. One or two of the
cash-and-carry stores not under
local control are accepting cash
only.
The moving picture theatre,
which ordinarily accepts only
cash, is taking checks in pay
ment for tickets. Manager Smith
has one of the largest accumu-
latlons of checks in the village.
Scores of them are for 80 and 35
cents, and very few are for more
than So. A check has to be made
out for the exact amount of the
purchase of tickets.

Chapel Hill Chaf

For several months George
Coffin Taylor, on leave of alb
sence from the University, has
been putting the finishing touch
es on a book about Milton that
will add to his renown in the
world of scholarship. But when
he was here at the weekend |
observed that he evinced far less
pride ppf- iae III ifnf this this achievement than
in the prowess of his son Ed
mund as a boxer.
The boy is a high school stu
dent in Charleston, S. c., this
year, and in a recent bout he won
the right to represent his school
in boxing tournament soon to
be held in Charlotte. Mr.. Tay-
lor was able to quit his labors in
the Harvard library and get to
Charleston in time to witness
this bout.
Edmund was knocked down
early in the fight, but he was on
his feet again in two or three
seconds the father told me with
enthusiasm, "and pressed his op-
ponent to the ropes, and knocked
him down twice and won the de-
cision." Mrs. Taylor, who was
listening to the recital, did not
seem to take much pleasure in
her husbands tribute to the for
titude with which Edmund took
a stiff crack on the nose. Evi-

e. G.. Johnson, carpenter and
painter of CarrbOro, has given a
demonstration of how to buck
the depression. The important
feature of his program is
simple: he cultivates a garden
vigorously and thus cuts down
his expenditures for food.
George H. Lawrence, county
welfare officer, showed the ed
itor yesterday a summary of the
record kept by this Carrboro
citizen in the year 1882.
Mr.. Johnson devoted to his
garden a plot so by 100 feet on
his place near the public school

VACATION CALLED
OFF BECAUSE OF
BANKS CLOSING
Students Lack Money for Trip
Home, and So Authorities
Postpone the Recess
IT MAY COME AT EASTER

Because of the banking holi-
day the University authorities
have decided to postpone the va
cation that had been scheduled
for next week, March 13 to 18.
Final winter quarter eXamina-
tons are now in progress, class
room work for the spring quar-
ter will begin Monday, and new
students will be registered Mon
day.
A. vacation will probably be
decreed for Easter week, April
II to p. If it is, this will be a
return to a former practice. A
few years ago a mid-March re-
cess was instituted so that work
would be suspended between
terms rather than after the
spring term was in full swing.
The inability of a great num-
ber Of students to obtain cash,
for the journey to their homes
and back, was the cause of the
alteration in the schedule.
The postponement was an
nounced at an emergency cOnvo-
cation Monday morning in Me-
mortal hall. The hall was
packed to the doors, and stu
dents, faculty members, and
other citizens of Chapel Hill lis
tened intently to President Ora
ham as he set forth the reasons
for the decision and appealed for
cooperation in the solution of the
problems arising out of the ma
tlonal crisis.
If we took a vacation now, "
he said, many of the students
would be unable to get home and
many who did get home would
be unable to return. Let US stay
here and fight our common
enemy, the depression, together.
There is no cause for hysteria,
bat rather every cause for clear
thinking, faith, and action"
The postponement was ap-
proved by the faculty advisory
committee and the student coun-
cil.
Students whose funds are cut
off as a result of the banking
holiday will be allowed to regis
ter for the spring quarter with
out the prompt payment Of fees
that is ordinarily required as a
condition Of entrance.
