Vicland stands and yields well
and has heavy test weight per

Since its release in 1941, it has
been gaining rapidly in popularity
throughout the northern corn belt,
where it has proven very satisfac-
tory for combine harvesting.

WASHINGTON, April A. W.D -
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt bore
the ordeal of her husbands last
ride to the White House like a sol
der.
Only once did she waver.
Her black limousine drew. to one
side as the caisson stopped before
the White House portico. She didn't
wait for help but opened the car
door and stepped out alone.
For a moment, her tall figure
seemed to crumple slightly but she
quickly gathered herself together
and waited for her son, Brig. Gen.
Elliott Roosevelt, and, her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Anna Boettiger, to join
her.
They were a lone little group,
standing by the side of the car
those few, long minutes.
Soon the four daughters-in-law
all of a size and all wearing black
dresses and very small black hats,
arrived to stand in single straight
line behind them.

APPEAL FOR USED
CLOTHES RENEWED

Wilbur R. Dosher, chairman of
the United National Clothing Col
lection in New Hanover county,
has proclaimed this week as the
time for all residents to clean out
all clothes closets in an effort to in
crease local collections of used
clothing.
"Apply this test" Mr.. Dosher
said, Am I wearing it now? If
not, out it goes"
Mrs. Roosevelt, in a recent col
umn, called upon the women OF
the nation to observe this week as
the opportunity to put all old used
clothing to a practical use She said
that this was to be one of the big
gest features of the United Ma
tional Clothing collection" he said.
Although it was anticipated that
some shipments would be ready
this week, an advance shipment of
I'll pounds of used clothing left
Wilmington Friday for the State
central depot in Raleigh. This
shipment represented early col
lections from the schools, where
many more clothes are being col
lected daily.
Because no central location for
packing clothes before shipment
was found to be available in Will
mington, Mr.. Dosher said, sorting
and packing must go On in the
schools and churches serving as
collection centers. For this reason,
it is difficult at this time to esti-
mate the total number of pounds
Of Globes so far received, as these
scattered centers have no facilities
for weighing them, however re-
ports received to date are very
promising, he added.
Mr.. Dosher pointed out that
under the leadership of w.. D. Mac
MILAN, the is laundry and dry
cleaning establishments are al
ready packing all unclaimed gar
ments at their plants, were title
has passed to the cleaner. -Four
it these establishments have re-
ported that they have very large
lots" of such clothing on hand
and it is expected that most of this
will be moved out during the COM
ing week.
Mr.. Dosher urged all citizens
to take their clothing contributions
to the churches and schools, prev
iously designated as the official
collection centers. All clothing
contributed should be clean but
that it need not be pressed.

TEACHERS TENURE
Law IS ADVOCATED

RALEIGH, April IA R DIR.
Ralph Mcdonald. retiring presi-
dent of the North Carolina Edu-
cation Association, today called for
a tenure law to protect school
teachers, principals and other en-
ployes against dismissal without
just cause.
Mcdonald spoke at installation
ceremonies held here by the
NCEA, which saw Mcdonald Sue
ceeded as president by Mrs. An
ME Laurie Mcdonald of Hickory.
C. W. Phillips of Greensboro de-
feated DR.. A. M. Proctor of Dur
ham for the first-vice presidency,
which automatically elevates him
to the presidency in 1916. Miss
Ethel Perkins of Raleigh was re-
elected secretary-treasurer and di-
rector of the National Education
Association.
Newly elected members Of the
borad of directors are D. H. Con-
ley of Greenville, who succeeds
Miss Bertha Cooper of Elizabeth
City as representative of the
northeastern district; and Hugh
Bean of Marion. who replaced
Junius Allison of Asheville as rep
resentative from the western dis
trict.
DR.. Mcdonald, twice defeated
candidate for governor. told offic-
ers of the NCEA that ''the needs
OF North Carolina schools literally
cry oft for u.s.
He listed as prime necessities
| the low ing recommended
changes in the present school set
up:
81. A tenure law to protect
teachers, principals and superin-
tendents against dismissal without
just cause.
80. A sound and adequate sal
airy schedule.
'3. At least 10 months Of en-
ployment for teachers (the same
as that now offered to principals
Under an act of the 1945 legisla-
ture).
4. Reduction in the teacher
load in high schools and elemen-
tary grades.
IS. Raising the compulsory
school attendance law to 10 years,
and provide for real enforcement
of the law. (The recent legislature
raised the compulsory law from
IA to 16 years of age.)
&c. A system of state school ad-
ministration which will place con.
troll of purely administrative mat.
tiers in the State Department OF
Education rather than in a COM
peting administrative system set
UP by the State Board Of Edu-
cation.
~. A real program of voca-
ton education for all high school
children of the state.
'8. A health program which will
provide full medical and dental
care for all children, provide ade-
quate remedial treatment, and
promote healthy childhood"
ITO go farther with education"

er and more active state organiza.

"ONLY THE STRONG CAN BE FREE"

Before the war, a favorite topic Of discussion was
the danger involved when government lived beyond
It's income. In those days, a billiOn-dOllar deficit in
the Federal budget brought cries of alarm from ev-
cry corner Of the nation. A thirty or forty-billion
dollar Federal debt was considered ominOuslv big.
Now we have a debt many times that, and the ann
ual deficit is a breathtaking fifty or sixty billion.
Yet, few even bother mentioning it, and fewer still
express alarm. However, this should delude no one
into believing that the fears Of former days were
groundless. tr
Figures now show that bank deposits, notes in
circulation and public debt in the United States,
have far outstripped similar figures for France and
Belgium, from the standpoint of percentage increas-
es during the war. We think of France and Bel
GUM as on the verge of financial collapse. So
where does that leave us?
The things that can save this country from the
financial plight Of Europe are it's natural resources
and great productive capacity. The combination Of
these two can develop enough commerce, enough
jobs, and enough income to support a great debt.
But we must not forget that, while our wealth in the
form Of natural resources is an act Of providence,
the tools to exploit those resources were developed
by enterprising men. The industries of oil, power,
mining, transportation, and farming, as we know
them in this country, came from the work and organ
ization Of individuals. Because they are owned and
operated by millions Of individuals, they are called
private enterprises. AS long as they remain priv
ate enterprises, they will continue to expand and
grow in the future as they have in the past. If CIV
en- the opportunity, they will bring new strength to
America, for America is a young nation. Her peo-
pie and her industries can overcome the problems OF
a gigantic war debt.
Our greatest hazard is that through fear Of the eff
fects Of debt and initiation on prices, we will aband-
on freedom in favor of permanent strait jacket reg
uation and a planned lowered standard of living
regulation that will lead to oppression, destruction
Of private enterprise, and eventually our ability to
produce.
We should remember that fear can destroy free
dom. We should also member now as never be-
fore. the words of a great statesman who warned
that only the strong can be free and only the produc-
tive can be strong.
The Omaha guide., 1945-03-31
NEW PURPOSEFULNESS

Me think we see in recent trial verdicts, both by
juries and judges, indications of new purposefulness
in the administering Of justice to Negroes charged
with crime against Negroes.
The laxness of the law in this regard has become
well nigh. a national tradition. In the South, Ne
groes who kill Negroes are given what amounts to
almost every consideration short Of decoration fol
Kidding the community of anther Negro. The North
while not as frankly contemptuous of the right of
wronged Negroes to be avenged, has winked off its
responsibility with paternal allowance Of some kind
Of predication that Negroes will be Negroes.
Locally, we have been pleased recently to note
evidence of awakening by the courts to their respon
sibility toward the Negro community. In several
instances in which sympathy for some ''poor, ignor-
ant colored boy has been asked, the court has buck
ed at such deception and has sternly insisted on de
Gliding the cases on their merits.
Susceptible, as all people are, to the influence of
preponderant opinion, the Negro, as a race, has
come to hold black life very cheaply. Added to this
is the encouragement to violence furnished by frus-
tration and by ignorance, which has but one sure
means Of expression-action; the result is the aver
age Negro community's high rate Of assault and
murder.
Firmness in the courts will not entirely mend this
situation, but along with education and racial equal
ity, it will help.
