Wrecks - And Jobs

The dire need for manpOWer-fOr ev-
cry man and woman to take the most es-
sential job possible-is tragically empha-
sized by the recent train wrecks which
have shocked the nation.
There is no question but that the rail-
roads are short of men. They are carrying
the heaviest biggest loads in their history
and they are doing it despite equipment
shortages and with not as many skilled
and unskilled men as they should have
The railroads of this nation have long
thought of safety before most anything
else and they have done remarkable job
during the war of handling record traffic
with minimum of casualties. But in spite
of their caution, wreck like the recent
one near Philadelphia, in which the dead
and injured ran into the hundreds shows
the need for even greater caution. Prob
ably that is only possible if the railroads
can get more help.
It may seem a far cry toward aiding the
railroad situation if a girl takes job as
clerk in store, but there actually is def
mite relationship. 1t means that man
can be relieved from the job, he can take
seni-skilled job in a war plant and man
needed by the railroads who is in war
plant now can go back to railroading
If all of us do the best we can at an es-
sential job it will help prevent disasters in
our country as we'll as speed the winning
of the war.

NOTIFICATION OF "NEXT
OF KIN"

Notification of "next of kin" of
naval personnel killed, missing,
wounded, or captured-except
where death occurs within the
continental limits-is generally a
telegram giving such available
information as may be divulged.
In case of death this telegram is
confirmed by a letter from the
Secretary of the Navy, conveying
condolences and giving any addi-
tional details. Next of kin are
also furnished data as to rights
and benefits to which they are en-
titled. In the case of missing
person, the next of kin receives a
letter about the continuance of
allotments for insurance premi-
ums and for dependents. If the
navy receives further details of
the casualty, next of kin are
promptly notified.

RULES FOR COPPER
WIRE ARE EXPLAINED

Continued from Page One)
total Of $4,000 pounds for the cur
rent quarter-year, and this
amount will be allocated to coun-
ties according to local needs. This
plan of rationing is designed to
effect a more equitable distribu-
ton of existing supplies, and as
sure those eligible for wire that
they can obtain the amounts
which they are allotted"
Under the program, Mr.. Gam
bill said, copper wire applications
will be approved only for essen
tial needs which will add to the
food production program or save
labor on the farm. The maxi
mum amount which can be allot-
ted to new users of electricity, af
ter power line extensions have
been approved, will be IS pounds
for any one farm. Where an eX-
tension of farmStead wiring is re-
quested on a farm already served
by electricity, the maximum al
lotment will be SO pounds of
wire. The number of livestock
and poultry units on the farm will
determine the amount of wire
which may be obtained.
There is no provision made for
obtaining wire for farm dwellings,
or for other uses not directly re-
lated to the food production pro-
gram" he declared.
Farmers need not apply under
this procedure for certain small
purchases of wiring materials, he
said, as a farmer may purchase up
to rs feet of insulated copper wir-
ing, except for household use, by
certifying to his local dealer that
he is a farmer and needs the
equipment for production pur-
poses.
Certificates issued for purchase
of copper wire must be surrend-
cred to a supplier within ten days
after date of issuance or they be-
come void, he added.

What Will You Buy?

In an effort to avoid majo depression
after the war, manufacturers will soon
want to line up their potential customers
for automobiles, refrigerators, washing ma
chimes, home equipment, and numerous
other things-including airplanes.
It is going to be difficult job for in
dustry to shift from making war equipment
to manufacturing the civilian goods they
made before the war. Unless they plan
way ahead, it would seem almost certain
that they would be forced to curtail opera
tons during the shift period and put mil
lions of men out of work for at least a few
months. And that would be enough to set
off major depression.
But if industry can be assured of i'm
mediate customers and is persuaded by the
public to shift to civilian manufacturing
even faster than it shifted to war work in
1941, depression may be prevented.
The surest way for us to do that is to
put in our orders now-or at least to CO.
operate on all studies which will be made
to determine what we are actually going
to buy. It would undoubtedly be of great
help if each family would hold confer
ence and determine now what they can
afford to buy and what they have full in
tention of buying during the first year fol-
lowing the war.

Coal For Our Schools

Much progress has been made in the
schools of North Carolina during recent
years and two of the recent steps about
which we are particularly proud are the
twelfth grade and the nine-months' term.
But now that these goals have been ac-
complished, we should not rest on our
laurels. There are many other improve
ments in the public schools of this state
that should be considered Among these,
which have long been discussed are the
following:
1. Raise the compulsory attendance law
to 16 years old and provide for the admin
istration of the law.
2. Codify the public school laws.
3. Provide for supervisors or directors
of instruction in the county and city adj
ministrative units
f. Increase the salaries of the school
personnel.
S. Provide pre-school educational facul-
ties
6. Reduce the average daily attendance
required in the allotment of teachers
teacher load.
T. Strengthen the teacher training facil-
tiles and also provide more intensive in
service as well as pre-service training.
8. Plan for postwar school building
program.
g. Revise the standards for the accredit-
ment of both elementary and high schools.
10. Secure Federal Aid in order to more
nearly equalize the educational opportuni-
ties in the various states.
There are also others, and we hope that
efforts will never cease to improve North
Cardinals school system so that it may
eventually be classed among the best in the
nation and that the children of this state
may have the advantages which are right
fully theirs.

Solving Some Problems

Something new in the way of question
naire surveys is the one made by large
eastern aircraft corporation which queried
its employees on some of their inmost
thoughts
The results are most interesting. To
the question, "Do you think the top man.
agement of the company is competent, sin
cere, interested in your" the answers were
far in the affirmative And when asked,
"What is the most serious problem this
company and its employees must overcome
to make the greatest possible contribution
to victory?" employees listed shortage of
materials, absenteeism, and inadequacy of
trained personnel as the chief problems.
Other questions were:
what do you think can accomplish
most toward building 'morale'-the will
to work to win-among employees"
'How do you feel about possible enemy
attacks on this plant?"
There are all brands of foremen; what
do you think of yours?"
do you think the majority of your fell
low employees are competent, sincere, do
ing their best?"
eff you were hired within the past year
were you courteously treated by the per-
sonnet office, the plant police, your fellow
workers? Were you placed on the job for
which best fitted? Is the personnel de-
partment aiding you?"
care you receiving enough gasoline for
necessary driving to and from work."
The answers were most gratifying to the
company. They show staff of employees
for the most part well pleased with COM
pany policy and procedure, and fully con-
scious of the problems of war production
in their plant.

Buy War Bonds Now!

"Buv War Bonds is something we have
all heard again and again and will continue
to hear. And l hope that everyone will
continue to buy as many bonds as possible.
How many of us have ever stopped to think
lust what these bonds mean besides being
one of the best investments in the world!
Aside from that, we should remember
that every bond we buy is helping to crush
our enemies, to maintain democracy and
freedom to bring about peace on earth,
goodwill toward men; for we cannot hope
for peace until we have ended this war and
set in motion a plan to maintain peace
throughout the world. We should remem-
Der that in buying bonds we are backing
the efforts Of the men on the battle fronts,
men who are fighting, being wounded and
killed. Theirs is by far the hardest task,
the greatest sacrifice Surely, all the bonds
that we can buy is little thing in COM
parison to their efforts We should remem-
Der that the bonds we buy help to buy the
equipment they need to destroy our enc
mics, yours and mine Without equipment,
courage and valour we can never succeed.
Let's give Ashe county men and all 9TH
ers fighting for liberty and democracy, all
of the support they need, by buying bonds.
We should remember, too, that we have
a reputation at stake here on the home
front. We have goal to reach during this
Third War Loan Drive. We cannot afford
to fall short. Let's buy more War Bonds
and buy them NOW!

lieve in the work of the county
and community committees. With
these hands I wrote the language
into the various farm bills that
provide for county and communi-
ty committeeman selected by the

the best method of administering

may have the benefit of their ex-

ing the program. They know
how to administer this program,
and we can depend on them in
this emergency. The state and
county war boards have been do
ing unusually fine work. These
boards will be continued"
Pointing to the increasing need
for food for wartime uses, Chair
man Gambill said all-out produc-
ton will be necessary next year
to reach 1914 goals.
GAS yet, we do not know what
these goals will be, but it is like
ly they will be as large, or larg-
er, than they were for 1943.
Reaching levels of production we
have reached in the past is due,
in a large degree, to excellent
work of the county's 40 COM
munity committeeman and agen-
cies making up the county USDA
war board. These men will be
called upon again next year to
conduct a campaign for food pro-
duction, and we owe them our
full support, he declared.
Full details of the 1914 produc-
ton program win be announced

HOUSE VOTES IN

ton jubilantly summed up the
action in these words:
Chairman Bloom (D-NY) Of the
Foreign Affairs Committee: "The
House of Representatives has
spoken for the people of the Unit
ed States and the people of the
world. We want a lasting peace"
Representative Fulbright:
''This is just the beginning of
the process Of building a foreign
policy for the nation in this mo-
dern world. To be effective this
must be a continuing process, re-
quiring the assiduous attention of
our best statesmen. It is quite
reassuring that the House of Rep
resentatives has taken the initia-
tive in this matter. I believe this
is reason to hope for a better
world"
All of the members of the North
Carolina House delegation voted
with more than two-thirds of the
House in passing the resolution.
There was little criticism among
the Tar Heel delegation of the
language of the measure. Most
of the members agreed with their
Representative on the House For
eign Affairs Committee, William
0. Burgin who has always &C
claimed any concerted legislative
effort to require that America take
an active part in world fellowship
and order after the cessation of
hostilities.
Only one member of the dele
cation, Representative ]. Bayard
Clark, of Fayetteville, was absent
when the vote was taken.

1 have just finished reading
''The Robe, one of the newer
books in the Ashe county library.
I can highly recommend this to
any readers interested in the
spiritual side of this war.
l am wondering if the average
person realizes what fine insti-
tuition the Ashe county library is
and how much Mrs. G. D. Neal
has meant to it.
I have been a borrower for sew
eral years and I know from ex-
perience that the selection of
books in the Ashe library is one
of the best that can be found in
small library. This is due to
Mrs. Meals thought and planning.
I hope that the county commits
sioners, board of education, wo-
mans club and other cooperative
agencies will continue to sponsor
the library and that it will con-
tinue to grow in service. think
it would be a fine thing if Mrs.
Neal could be paid a regular sal
airy in keeping with her efforts
and that the library could be
kept open longer hours.
would appreciate you publish

NAPLES is BURNED:
RUSSIANS PUSH ON
Continued from Page One)


Prime Minister Churchill told
commons that American forces
had landed on Sardinia and were
helping four Italian divisions
drive out the Germans. At Saler-
no, he said, eve have recovered
the initiative and are now able to
advance northward on a broad
'front.'"
The last Nazi barrier before the
Dnieper crumbled yesterday as
the Russian army slashed across
the Desna river line and surged
on toward Smolensk and Kiev in
titantic drive to push the Ger
mans back to their invasion
boundaries.
A Moscow-broadcast communi-
que recorded by the Soviet moni-
tor announced that the Red army,
surging through powerful defens-
es, had scored big advances on
every sector of the front, indica-
ting that the Germans would be-
come more and more hard-press-
ed to keep their feet on Soviet
soil through the coming winter.
On all fronts, the Soviets lib
Grated Russian communicates by
the hundreds, killed upwards of
1000 Germans, destroyed 90
tanks and captured "a more, and
took many prisoners and vast
quantities of supplies, the COM
munique said.

erican transport planes have seiz-
ed Kaiapit, go miles above newly
captured Lac, New Guinea, and
only 70 miles south of the enemy
base at Madang, Gen. Douglas
Macarthur announced yester-
day.
The transports swept down on
a grassy field last Saturday night
and Sunday, disgorging Austria
lians who repulsed enemy count
erattacks and drove the Japan
csc out of the immediate area.
Such daring move outflanks the
enemy's base at Finschhafen on
the HuOn peninsula.
Kaiapit is inland on the Huon
peninsula northwest of Finsch-
hafen.
