a ~. set forth by Mrs. Borden in
sor address. She cited the splen-
Id record of war activities and
challenged the 4,Ol daughters of
North Carolina to work just as
hard for the peace. She reported

Under the administration of Mrs.

I'VE have been fortunate in hav-
ing as our historian, Mrs. Robe
son. who has emphasized locating
unmarked Confederate historic
spots and authenticating the data
concerning them. Now that the
war is over these places where
history of this state was made,
con be marked; said Mrs. Borden
She stated scholarships which
total thousands of dollars are
awarded annually to girls and
boys of Confederate ancestry. She
told Of the Honor Roll for World
War II daughters are compiling
Of men and women of Confederate
Ancestry who are eligible for the
U. D. C. cross of military service,
the raising of pensions in North
Carolina for Confederate veterans
and widows and the disposition
Of the site of the Confederate Sol
dlers Home in Raleigh. Although
The state owns the land, the U. D.
C. have always been consulted
about any proposal for its use. The
State Commission for the Blind
has been given permission to
erect preconditioning center for
the adult blind on the grounds. The
blind must be taught to care for
themselves, and to get about be-
fore vocational training can begin
and this preliminary training will
be given in Raleigh.
On October 18th, the Tooth An
nlversary of the birth of Gen.
Julian S. Carr, Mrs. Borden, at
the invitation of the Durham
Chamber Of Commerce placed a
wreath on the grave of the noted
Confederate soldier, industrialist
and philanthropist. She has been
invited to the Charleston Navy
YARD next month to christen a
ship.
True to our patriotic tradition
we are now planning for recon-
version and lasting peace. God
grant that we may have wisdom
anu courage to build peaceful
. W. with justice and opportunity
iOf all peoples the world over"
concluded Mrs. Borden.
