LANCASTER, Pal. w. Prentis,
Jr., president of the Armstrong Cork
Co., has gained distinction in the
fact that he is identified among
the 25 known as the Committee for
the Nation, selected by the National
Association Of Manufacturers.
His associates back home. un-
doubtedly have, and will congratu-
late him for this distinction in this
nationwide recognition as captain
of industry.
But the workers in his domain will
have no reason for rejoicing at his
appointment on this committee.
Even though Mr.. Prentis claims he
is friend of the workers, his work
on his committee will be primarily
anti-labor.

Raleigh. April i-The Rural Re
habilitatiOn Corporation, one of the
youngest of North Cardinals corpora
tions in point of age, having been in
cOrpOrated in October. 1884, bids fair
to be one of the most important in
respect to the economic and social sal
vation of thousands Of Rural North
CarOlinians. Mrs. Thomas O'Berry,
State administrators of the North Caro-
lima Emergency Relief Administration
said today.
The corporation came into being
because of the problems arising in
connection with the agricultural de-
preston which was general through
out the state and nation. A survey of
rural families on relief rolls in this
state disclosed that over fifty per
cent or approximately $4,000 families
were capable of possible rural rehabi-
itation Of those families showing
the greatest promise, II per cent own
farms, 10 per cent own rural homes,
AZ per cent are tenants, II per cent are
displaced tenants and 3 per cent are
day laborers.

are ito restore confidence, increase
