SAN FRANCISCO. July 26.-The
economic warfare of frozen funds
left the Japanese liner Tatuta Maru
still idling ON the high seas tonight,
with nearly 100 American citizens
and scores of other passengers
wondering just what the future has
in store.
The N. Y. K. Line said it had re-
Ceived no word from its 17,600-tOn
craft since yesterday when it
radioed it would be in the San
Francisco Harbor at 5 am. The
ship originally was due Thursday,
but hove TO with A other America
bound Japan ships after the United
States strongly denounced Japan's
move in Indo-China.
Most sources here believed the
Toxic government was waiting for
assurance that neither the $l5,000,-
900 ship nor its 81 500 900 cargo of
silk would be detained before issuing
orders for the craft to dock. 1t was
believed to be about 100 miles off =
shore.
Meanwhile. the British Govern
ment asked that in any move to have
passengers brought to shore the
United States include Desmond Tuf-
nell, British naval attache at Toxic.
There probably was no shortage
of food for the 243 passengers and
the crew of 280, informed sources
said. But unless the ship has taken
on new supplies at sea it appeared
It's fuel would be exhausted in an
other two or three days.

Navy Recruiting
OfficersTOBe
Here Fri. & Sat.
All Young Men Interested In
Joining Navy Are Invit-
ed To See Them.
PRESS is PRAISED

United States Navy recruiting
officers, J. L. Brown and F. A.
Marlborough, chief petty officers
of the Salisbury office, will be in
West Jefferson Friday afternoon
and Saturday to interview all
young men who are interested in
joining the Navy or the Naval re-
serve.
The recruiters will be at The
Skyland Post office or the Com
munity building and will be glad
to talk to any man between the
ages of II and 40 about the Navy.
Any person can obtain full in
formation from them without any
obligation whatever to join. Dur
ing the past week Carl Ashley, of
Crumpler and Eddie Woodie, of
Glendale Springs, have sent in
coupons, requesting more infor-
nation about ''life in the Navy.
The Navy editor of this paper
states that he still has a number
of free booklets that may be had
for the asking.
''The Navy advertising cam
paign in the newspapers of North
Carolina has already been a great
success" Lieutenant Command
er McF. w. Wood, officer in
charge of recruiting in the Caro-
linas, wrote Ed M. Anderson this
week.
"The enlistments for October
set a new record for these two
states, of 553 men. Of this total,
we know for sure that the adver-
Using was directly responsible for
at least a fourth of them, possibly
more. This October figure is more
than double the enlistments for
the same month last year and
there has been built also back

sideration which we hope will
make November an even bigger
month than October" he wrote.
"The originality and resource

Many At Good
Roads Luncheon
Celebration Marked the Com
pletion of Highway SO to
Tennessee Line.

More than 1875 of the leading
citizens of the county met at Riv-
erview high school last Saturday
noon when a number of dis
trict and state highway officials
were feted at a luncheon in appre-
citation of the completion of the
new black-top surfaced highway
from Laurel Springs to the Tenn
essee line.
This highway number 80 is what
was formerly Is and is about 40
miles in length. It is estimated
that it serves around two-fifths
of the people of the county and
its completion means a great deal
to this entire section.
Wade E. Eller, chairman Of the
good roads committee to organ
lied to work toward the compile
ton of the road, served as toast
master at the luncheon.
A number of leaders spoke
briefly. Ira T. Johnston expressed
the appreciation to WPA and to
the highway commission for the
completion of the road. w. B..
Austin gave the history of the
movement to complete the road.
Professor Bower H. Duncan ex-
pressed the appreciation of the
people in the Riverview section.
V. D. CURE, state highway COM
missioner and Gordon Hackett,
former commissioner, spoke of
their interest in the road and
their pleasure over its compile
ton. A number of other visitors
spoke briefly.
Among the other highway Off
Gals present were E. Ford King,
Zeb Stuart, Jim Council, c. A.
Hayworth and Captain George
Doggett. Lowell Smithey officially
represented the WPA.
Members of the committee of
which Wade Eller was chairman
and Austin Jones secretary said
they wanted to thank everyone
for their cooperation in making
the event success.
The luncheon was served by
the women of the community and
a number of contributions were
made by the West Jefferson mer-
chants.

Over 1000 Farmers
Already Signed TO
Produce More Food
Ashe Farmers Said To Be Co
operating With Food for
Freedom" Drive.
TO CANVASS COUNTY

Realizing their patriotic duty as
well as yielding to a desire to in
crease their income next year,
Ashe county farmers are co-ope-
rating splendidly with the flood
for freedom" campaign, it was
learned yesterday from the farm
agents office.
Approximately 1000 farmers,
nearly one-fourth of all of them
in the county, had signed up by
last Saturday to increase their
food and feed production in 1912,
it was reported.
The canvass is being made by
% AAA community committee
men and they are working hard
to finish the entire county by
December 1st.
This canvass is being made to
determine how many farmers can
and will increase production of
milk, poultry, eggs, hogs, soy
beans, garden vegetables and hay
crops next year.
Initial reports indicate that the
increase in the county in each di-
vision will be much greater than
the average asked by Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard.
A big increase in milk, poultry,
eggs and hog production is indi-
Gated. There is likewise keen in
terest in increasing the hay crop.
Because of the necessity of
sending vast supplies of food and
feed products to England and
Russia, the need for more food
production in this country has be-
come acute and consequently
prices on such commodities have
increased.
Farmers are also being request
ed to sign up for participation
with the 1912 farm program,
which is very similar to the AAA
plan used this year.
Only a few farmers contacted
by the triple A men so far have
refused to sign, it is stated.
