4-H CLUB ACTIVITY
YOUTH INSPIRATION
Fostering in Rural Boys and

College Station, Raleigh March T.
The All club movement is fostering
in rural boys and girls a desire for
advanced training in colleges and uni
verSitieS to better fit themselves for
life
The number of club members who
plan to enter college is increasing
every year, said l.. R. Harrill, state
and many of the foremost agricultural
and home economics students are for
mer All club members.
The fact that All boys and girls are
going to college. in increasing num-
bers indicates that club work awakens
in the rural young people a realiza-
ton of the value Of thorough train
ing and a we'll .c&nded education,
Harrill stated.
One of the most outstanding agri-
cultural students ever graduated from
State College said he would not have
carried his scholastic education be-
You'd high school had it not been for
the inspiration, encouragement and

many rural boys and girls to attend

is why the club organization is seek

The large number of All boys and
girls who choose agricultural or home
economics courses at college also at
tests the fact that All clubs are show
ing rural youths how wholesome and
satisfying life on the farm can be
made, he continued.
Although Harrill did not have exact

Legislature Not Enthusiast

New Social Laws
Daily Dispatch bureau,

nn Il. e, ia CK ER WILL

Raleigh. March 7.-Although the
Virginia legislature has been IN SEES
sion for some time and is stlll IN SEES
sion, it has failed to do anything at
all about providing for old age pen
sions while the law it has enacted
with regard to unemployment lnsur-
ance provides that it shall not become
effective until after the U. S. Supreme
Court has held that the Federal So
cial Security Act is valid and constr
tutional. it was learned here today
from an authoritative source. The re-
suit is that Virginia, with it's leglsla-
ture in session, has not provided for
any more state social security legis-
lation than the 1885 North Carolina
legislature provided for this State a
year ago, it is pointed out here.
Under the new Virginia act, unem-
ployment insurance cannot be put in
to effect until the Supreme Court
passes upon and upholds the Federal
Social Security Act, which may be
many months yet or not at all. 1t is
understood that Governor Peery, of
Virginia. recommended that a commits
sion be named to study the old age
pensions question in Virginia, with an
appropriation of $4,000 for this pur-
pose, but that the finance commit
tees are, even opposed to this plan and
likely to report the entire proposal I'm
favorably. If this is done, Virginia will
be entirely without any provision for
cooperating with the Federal govern
ment to provide old age pensions an
der the Social Security Act
In spite of the clamor from some
quarters for special session here in
North Carolina to enact old age pen
sioms and unemployment insurance
laws, to cooperate with the govern
ment under the Social Security Act, a
good many observers here are con-
vinced that it would be difficult to
get laws of this sort through a special
session, certainly not without tremen-
dous opposition. For it is agreed that
