Editorial
NEWSPAPER POLICY

1,s+ waek,s innocent little editorial
rayord;nn the interceding OF town ol-
ficlals upon occasion IN court ac'lon
met with lively reception TO Say 'iio
least.
Thus act,in this newspaper feels COM
neIled TO- restate its policy, made clear
in the opening editions but apparent
" Gisregarded by some.
No person or groups OF persons Will
Influence the opinions expressed LII 'ne
editorial columns, no fences Will oe
straddled hut rather 4 stand VIII DC
taken that seems to us the most bene-
fetal te = bigger and greater lanor
Civ. We will not cover up the truth
to protect anyone or any group we
will poi stand for distorted views on
any subiec, which might hoodwlnk the
people in this and surrounding areas
This newspaper will continue to give
credit where credit is due, criticism
when il is deemed necessary, and strive
at all tiiues to be promoting Influence
upon anything that will tend to make
Tabor City and this area better place
in which to live.
We viii, so far as possible, avoid
name calling in editorial columns. Name
calling, it seems to Us, might do more
harm than good and it is always our
aim to better conditions and never to
do anything that might cause us to take
a backward step.
We realize that cur relative newnes
to Tabor City might lead some to be-
lieve that our editorials are written
when we are only half-cocked and that
we are not fully aware of what is being
said. We are new, but old in the news
paper field. old enough to know when
enough facts are manifested to warrant
the attention of the public.
We strive to hurt no man but to help
all. TO do this, the chips may some
fall on your shoulders. Can you bear

Thanksgiving
Turkeys Seen In
Record Numbers

Thanksgiving's turkey is already
we'll on it's way to the nations dim
ing table, and prospects are for bet
ter civilian supplies at lower prices
than ever before.
That is, prices will be lower un-
less other kinds of meat are SO
scarce poultry becomes in unusually
greater demand.
Production of turkeys was stepped
up to record heights during wartime
OF augment other meats drained off
to the military forces. A government
crop report estimates production this
fall will be down about nine percent
from 1945's peak. but there still will
be more than ever available for the
public.
The reason is that storage stocks
have been at their highest point in
history this summer, while military
needs have been cut drastically. This
leaves the orersupply and the cur
rent seasons nearly record crop al
most entirely to the tender talents
Of the housewives.
Last years record crop was about
As, 100000 head, this years about
100000 according to the depart
ment of agriculture.
Though the decline is nine per-
cent, the 1916 turkey population Is
around 81 percent larger than the
l938-1942 average.

10 TINE TO REL11N

Currently mass N-ray tests are being
conducted in all parts Of the country IN
the battle against tuberculosis. The
United States Public Health service
plans to cover the entire country be-
tween now and the latter part OF this
month. Local support for this effort
is needed to urge those who might be re-
lrctant to have the test made, for only
by 100 percent cooperation Of the pub
lie will this effort prove worth while.
In the sections of the country near
military establishments the VD ques-
ticn is again raising its ugly head Held
to minimum among members OF the
armed forces during the war, a general
relaxation Of rigid controls have caused
the ND :.ates to rise to, and sometimes
above, pre-war levels. While this ques-
ticn is one which is generally hush-hush
nevertheless recent wartime precautions
have mols or less brought it out into
the open with the result that treatments
have improved and become more widely
public;zed. If we are to stamp out this
disease now is the time to speed up, not
relax our efforts.

SOME PINT NEEDED

The Tabor City Negro scrool is IN
need Of some immediate repairs. The
old school building hasn't been painted
in many moons and unless some one
puts some paint on its faded walls be-
fore too long, Tabor City negro school
is going to be too far gone for remod-
cling. -
1t seems to us that with the current
acute shortage Of everything In the way
OF building materials, the county would
profit by taking immediate steps to
preserve the school building.
The land is exceptionally wet where
negro school stands anyway and the
excess moisture is doing much to de-
teriate the ancient structure. PANT IS
scarce but it undoubtedly could be pro-
cured for 6 worthy cause such as that
now imminent
The inside of the building needs
some work also and seating facilities
have 50 much room for improvement
that it is a subject by itself. If the South
is to continue progressing in the educa-
lion field, much must be done towards
encouraging the colored people to go to
school and it doesn't look much like our
local negro pcpulace is getting that en-
enlargement.

Partly because of high feed costs
and also to take advantage of public
demand for smaller birds, marketing
is expected to be the earliest in IL
years of record and we'll ahead OF
last year, the department of agri-
culture said.
AS in the case of many other farm
commodities, record supplies will not
necessarily mean lower consumer
prices as in the classical working OF
supply and demand economics. Gov
eminent support will hold prices at
90 percent of parity for the duration
of the state of war plus two years.
For turkeys, the support average
farm price will be about 2O3 cents
pound, live weight. This figure
will vary among turkey producing
zones of the country.

FARMERS BILL OF RIGHTS

Farmers Bill of Rights is essential
to sound and equitable economic sys-
TEN, and thus to the Nations prosper
ity. Unless the farmer receives
square deal-which would call for
fair return on his investment and due
remuneration for his labor, along with
opportunity to get ahead and improve
his living conditions-the entire Nation
will suffer. Business and industry lean
upon farmer purchasing-power.

YOUR farm
AGENT Says
Charles d. Raper,
County Agent

Last week Clyde Wayne, a young
nrogressiye farmer who lives on the
shores of Lake Waccamaw, and I
stood in his 10 acre pasture that
was seeded three years ago to Dallas,
Lespedeza, and White Dutch clover.
At the time it was seeded he put an
application of lime, phosphate, and
potash on this pasture. Clyde has
two other pastures seeded to Carpet
Grass wears ago and another that
was grazed a few years ago and
seeded with lespedeza, with no fer
tilizer being applied to either OF the
pastures.
While standing in his Is acre pas
ture looking over his IL HEREFORD
BOWS and calves, we noticed tnat
this pasture was grazed very close
and looking across the fence we
noticed that the other two pastures
were not grazed fiery close, evan
though his cattle ad to 60 through
these pastures to get to water. After
investigating the amount oi eiaInis
being done, Clyde said he could us
ually find his cattle in his Is acre
pasture and could give no reason why
the cattle did not like the lespedeza
and carpet grass in the other two
pastures.
When asked about his fertilizer
we found that the two pastures mad
not been fortified to his knowledge,
so Immediately Clyde contacted the
rAAA, office ordering sufficient lime
and phosphate to cover MS pas
lures, and next spring he is planning
to add an application of Potash In
order to get more grass out OF MS
present pasture. He also plans TO
seed another ten acre pasture next
spring.

It is good to see countrywide dental
society such as the one in Columbus
county to which both the Tabor City
dentists belong. Both Dr.. n. X. Currie
and Dr. S. J. Potts are active members
and office holders. Birds of feather
flock together and we believe that in so
doing learn much from each other which
benefits all Other professions might
dc well to form along similar lines.

sUNE. TME MONTH or BRIDES
 As we all know June is the month of brides. Up m Reno they're flying flags at half mast.
 Nobody knoEg why so many people get married in June the only sound. scientific reason advances % far. is ehat the strong sun beating down on a mans head during that month makes him punchy and easier to catch.
 There's been Q great increase in the number Of couples who are going to Niagara Falls for their honeymoons. end it's easy to fienre out why they're up there looking for that barrel the guy went over it in and the first one to find it gets to live in it.
 Of course. brides aren't being carried over the thresholds any more the husband just picks heI up and jumps over the rope that holds up the tent
 And the material shortage IS pretty bad, too brides used t0 gear wedding dresses with long trains nov they settle for slacks with a short hand-car
 There's a shortage of every thing one bride has to wear fhe same orange blossoms her mother wore. It would have been all right. but the blossoLls had bl0oEned and three seconds after the groom sqneezed his bride to him to kiss her. they gere up to their knees in orange juice.
