Flight Becomes Urgent as Plight of filling Man

 Keeping everlasting at it, Pilot Sheldon Simmons took off in the Alaska Air Transport Lockheed seaplane this forenoon about 9:30 o'clock on fourth attempt to fly to Chichagof, with the same five passengers with whom he had at tempted to hop there from Juneau Tuesday orning, Wednesday morning. and yesterday afternoon.
 Out for nearly three hours on his try yesterday afternoon, Simmons very nearly got through to the min ing camp, but was finally forced back to Juneau. It is thought that he finally completed the flight suc- cessfully today.
 Making the necessity for the flight more urgent, is the fact that a stricken man at Hirst- -Chichagof is in immediate need of hospital at- tention.

Employees IS and
Over to Get Social

Raleigh, April 28.-Social Securi-
ty account number of employees in
North Carolina who have reached or
passed the IS year age limit will be
issued by the postoffices in the State
for the North Carolina Unemploy-
ment Compensation Commission,
Frank Bane, executive director of
the Social Security Board, has adj
vised E. w. Price, director of the
Unemployment Compensation Divi-
sion of the State commission.
The message advising that this
method can be used for identifying
employees who had not previously
been issued Social Security account
numbers ebcause of their age read
as follows:
"Postoffices are being instructed
to issue Social Security account
numbers to employees aged sixty
five or over on and after April e.
Application entirely voluntary from
Federal viewpoint. You may, if nee
essary, and not earlier than Tues
day, April q, issue State publicity,
together with appropriate rule or
regulation making application COM
pulsory under State, but not Federal
law"
Acting on the message, the North
Carolina commission, in meeting
Monday, adopted a rule requiring
that employers of the State apply to
their local postoffices and secure
these special Social Security ac-
county numbers for all their en-
ployees who have reached or passed
the IS age limit and who do not
have such numbers.

Farmers Making
! Big Income Gains
High Prices of Grains, Benefit
Payments and AAA Are
Given the Credit

Government estimates credited
farmers this week with cash in
come gain of nearly a half billion
dollars in the first quarter of this
year compared with the similar 1886
period. The respective totals were
$1,945, 100000 and 81, 500, 100000.
The sharp climb, experts said
was caused in part by the upward
surge of general business activity
and in part by abnormal reactions
from last summers drought.
High prices of grains have put
some additional money in some
farmers pockets, the economists
said, and have forced others to sell
off hogs and cattle.
Government benefit payments I'm
der the 1886 Federal program also
accounted for some of the gain.
More than $200,00O,O0O went to
farmers from that source in the first
three months this year, against $751;
100000 in the same period of 1886.
The Agricultural Adjustment ad-
ministration sent out Sill, 100000 in
benefit payments last month alone,
the greatest amount in one month
since start of the Federal farm pro-
gram in 1888.

CCC Boys Plant Over so Million
Seedlings in 3 Months on
$1,000 Acres of Land
STATE GREATLY BENEFITED

Fifty-five thousand acres of bar
rem and idle lands in eight South
eastern States recently have beer
put to work in growing trees under
the federal reforestation program
This volume of acreage in tree
paintings in an area that once was
known as the land of cotton indi-
Gates that this region is fast becom-
ing a lively tree growing center With
an increasing demand for forest pro-
ducts, the yield from the trees
grown on these fifty-five thousand
acres of land in Alabama, Arkansas
Louisiana, Mississippi, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Oklahoma and
Texas, represents a potential source
of wealth when turned into lumber
pulpwood or naval stores. In addi-
ton to whatever ultimate revenue
this crop of trees may produce, they
also have further definite value in
protecting soil and watersheds.
The planting of this acreage re-
quired approximately fifty-seven
million seedlings and about three
months of work on the part of CCC
enrollees working under the super
vision of the U. S. Forest Service.
The figures represent only the
paintings on national forest lands in
the Southern Region of the U. S.
Forest Service during the planting
season which extended from Deem
Der 1886 to March 1887.
Barren cut-over and abandoned
farm ands acquired by the Govern
ment for national forest use consti-
tute the chief basis of operations
under this reforestation program,
according to Regional Foretser JOS
eph c. Kircher, of the U. S. Forest
Service, Atlanta, Georgia. After the
acquisition of these lands, the first
concern of the Forest Service was to
restore their productivity and to get
trees growing again as quickly as
possible on the barren areas. The
Forest Service hopes to continue its
reforestation program until all ma
tional forest lands which are now
devoid of desirable tree growth are
stocked with trees which will pro-
tect the lands from erosion, protect
watersheds, produce timber and 9TH
er forest products.
Mr.. Kircher stated that Louisiana
received the greatest benefit from
the paintings just completed. A total
of $4,000 acres of denuded lands in
that State required the planting of
about twenty-four million seedlings.
Mississippi's acreage was $4,000
which called for the planting Of
around twenty-one million seed
1ings, and some twelve thousand
acres in Texas required over ten
million seedlings for planting. More
than 800 acres each were planted in
North Carolina and Alabama. APP
proximately 600 acres were planted
in Arkansas. South Carolina and
Oklahoma had comparatively small
paintings, and limited planting for
watershed protection was done on
national forest lands in Georgia.
All of the tree planting work was
carried on with CCC enrollees who
had been trained by Forest Service
officers. In the great national pro-
gram to put idle lands and idle
hands to work, it is estimated that
since the organization Of the corps,
the CCC has planted in excess of a
billion trees. These boys in the
Southern Region earned their title
of tree troopers" during the work
of the past winter. Armed with

BISHOP ANSWERED
ON c. |. D. ISSUE
New York Episcopal PreIate
Is Told Free Speech
Should Prevail.
NJ the Associated Press.

81 the ASSOCIATED Press.
Cincinnati, Ohio, September 9.-The
Cincinnati Chapter of the Church
League of Industrial democracy, an
swering criticism by Right Rev Will
liam t. Manning, Episcopal bishop
of New York, said in q statement yes
terday that "the curtailment of free
speech should be as foreign to its
(church) principles as to those Of our
National Congress"
Bishop Manning's criticism involved
the leagues scheduled part in the
forthcoming general convention Of the
church here next month.
Bishop Manning held that an in
vitation TO Homer Martin of the
United Automobile Workers Union, a
G. I. o. affiliate, to speak at one of
the meetings, was move placing the
church on Martins side of the C. l. o.
A, F. of l.. controversy.
Bishop Hobson Approves Reply.
The leagues reply, signed by STAN
ley Matthews president, bore the ap-
proval of Bishop Henry Wise Hobson,
head Of the Southern Ohio diocese.
The foreWord of an official "tenta-
tive program" of the convention, to be
held October to 20, states that "vari-
Gus official organizations of the church,
together with a number of other groups
having no such connection. rightly
take advantage of the opportunity to
bring their work and programs before
those gathered at the convention
ut seems" read the leagues state
ment, that the foreword stating
definitely what does and what does not
constitute official action by the con-
vention, should absolve the convention
management of any criticism or re-
sponsibility for the presence Of these
speakers on the program.
Cites c. l. 0. Progress.
"On the other hand, the Episcopal
Church is on record AS having officially
Endorsed the principles of labor organ
ization and collective bargaining. The
c. I. o. has already accomplished more
in this direction in one year than any
labor group heretofore known, and
actually with less violence in proper
ton to the results attained
Many members Of the Episcopal
Church = wishing to be kept up-to-
date on what is being done through
out the country - will welcome
these meetings. Since the Episcopal
Church is a democratic organization
with government closely patterned
after that Of the United States, the
curtailment of free speech should be as
foreign to its principles as to those of
our National Congress.
