ry t. Go1rell, in a dispatch from
Cherbourg, said United States arm
OF and infantry slashed through
the streets in a heavy rain and, in
some parts of the city, under heavy
artillery fire fom Capr de la Hague
to the northwest.
RESISTANCE COLLAPSES
German resistance at Fort Dur
oule, one of the strongest of the
German fonts in the system guard
ing the city's south gates, collapsed
Mcneay, Gorrell reported, when u.
S. shock troops destroyed its big
guns with charges of TINT.
The Americans rounded up 3,4OO
prisoners in the last "a hours, Cor
rell said. The rate of the roundup,
the Nazi shelling of parts of the
town, and the dwindling of resist
, ance in the streets indicated to him
that the German defense was about
over.
Isolated German strong points o.,
! the right flank continued resist
ance. There were pockets of resist
ance in the Hardinvast area. In
the western section of the city, only
sporadic S1liping from buildings in
the arsenal area impeded the Amer
leans.
Some Germans were holding out
in the Fort St. Sauveur area. Die
harcs fought back as patrols pen-
etrated the regions of Brenaville,
Beaumont-H Hague and Ste. Croix-
Hague.
TRY TO HOLD HARBOR
The massing of artillery on Cap
de la Hague, from which coastal
batteries also were active against
Cherbourg, suggested that the Nazis
were seeking to deny the allies use
of the harbor as long as possible,
Gorrell said.
Even while Americans battered
down the last resistance in Cher
bourg, Gen. Sir Bernard l.. Mont
gomery launched the next phase of
the invasion campaign. His British
troops Stormed forward ON the Caen
-Bayeux front at the southeastern
rim OF the beachhead, aiming at
Vl!leS-Bocage, l3 miles southwest
of Caen.
The British lashed out Monday

Social Security Cards
IMPORTANT miss Bolton

Having a social security account
card is no indication that the holder
is legally employable under the child
labor regulations, Miss Bolton,
Manager of the Social Security
Board office at Dayton, Ohio,
pointed out today. Reports reach
ing the Social Security Board indi-
cate that some young people are
offering these cards as evidence
that they are employable, and, in
few isolated cases, that employers
are accepting them, she stated. The
young person offering the card may
or may not meet the child require
ments, he said, but in this connec-
ton his social security account card
has no significance.
'The responsibility of an en-
ployer under federal and state laws
regarding the hiring of minors is in
no way affected by the fact that the
applicant for work may hold So
cial security account card" Miss
Bolton explained. ''This card" she
said, "only means that the holder
has had social security wage ac-
count set up for him under the Fed
eral old-age and survivors system.
The account is for the purpose of
determining the insurance benefits
to which he or his family will be en-
titled at his retirement age or in
case of his death. Eligibility for en-
ployment under child labor regu-
lations is not required in order to
obtain a social security account
card"

Tobacco Farmers
Pleased With Crop

SOUTHPORT, June 11.-Bruns.
wick county tobacco growers are
in a jubilant frame of mind. Daily
farmers who come to town de-
clare that their fields of weed are
in the best condition and most ad-
vanced, for early in June, of any
crop they have ever grown.
The same is being said of the
corn CROP. in fact all crops. From
the day the seed was planted or
plants put out the county has had
the best crop growing season that
anyone remembers ever having
Seeds and plants have grown right
from the start.
The past May has been a re-
markable month for the entire alb
sence of cold damp east winds and
chilly nights. The temperature al
night has been more like that
found in July and August and
these warm nights apparently con.
tributed more than anything else
to rapid plant growth. Previous
May months have invariably
brought along cold spells, east
winds and other conditions thai
combined to stunt crops.
If June weather is anything like
that which prevailed in May,
Brunswick county is due to pro-
duce a wonderful tobacco and corr
crop, in addition to other money
and food crops. The outlook is ex-
tremely encouraging.

BRUNSWICK CLUB
HOLDING CONTEST

SOUTHPORT, June II. = The
Brunswick County Home Demon
stration Council at it regular
meeting during the past month,
made plans to sponsor feed bag
sewing contest, according to the
home agent, Elizabeth Norfleet, OF
the State college extension service.
The contest will begin immedi-
ately and end at the fall feder-
alton meeting, she says. All arti-
cles made from feed bags will be
displayed and prize awarded for
the best in each class.
The council elected this for
their project as there is short
age of cotton goods, but an ample
supply of feed bags, both white
and printed, the home agent says.
Council members felt that the
contest would encourage original
ty and ingenuity on the part OF
club members and would be help
full in suggesting new uses for the
bags to everyone, Miss Norfleet
says.
Following the business session,
Maxwell, extension entomoligist at
State college, gave talk on gar.
den pests before the council.
He showed colored clides of &C.

and worms on them and showed
the damage the pests could cause.
After showing the insects and the
damage they cause, he suggested
ways of combating them and an.
swered number of questions fol-
