ARMY ENl|STMENTS IN
MONTANA SETS RECORD

The army recruiting service re-
ported March % at Butte that vol
untarv enlistments were breaking
all records in Montana, but that the
numbers joining the regular army
are still short of meeting current
requirements. Maj. H. Z. NC

cruiting service, revealed that IN a
little more than five months l,O3o
men had enlisted in the regular
army from the Montana area. Ma,
ior Mcknight reported 144 men had
been enlisted during the first three
weeks of March, which places the
Montana district third among the
seven states of the Ninth service
command.

ROBBER TAKES LARGE
SUM FROM LOCAL. STORE

The Laurel Safeway store was
robbed during the night of March
% of a considerable sum of money
and checks representing Saturday
sales by someone who, in the
opinion of officers working on the
case, evidently concealed himself IN
the store before closing time Sat
urday night.
The loss was discovered about
noon Sunday when the manager,
Jacob Bait, went to the store and
found a robber had ransacked a
real room and taken the money
and checks concealed there. The
cash register near the front of the
main room was not molested. II
contained a small amount of odd
change.
Because there was no evidence OF
a break-in the officers are of the
opinion that the robber had hid
den himself in warerooms at the
zeal of the property. When he de-
parted he unattached a back door.

Pacific Island Ruler
Wants to Join the u. S.

PEARL HARBOR. - Sixty-eight
thousand dark-skinned jewellers on
four million square miles of tiny,
primitive Pacific islands have eaten
U. S. navy chow, have farmed as
Uncle Sam instructed, have got
acquainted with American-estab-
lished schools.
So now King John Sigrah, ruler
of Kusaie in the sprawling Caro-
lines, has written to President Tru-
man asking that the United States
formally annex his coconutted king
dom and his 1900 subjects.
Another group of Central Pacific
folk staged an informal sit-down
strike on their airfeld jobs-until
the navy agreed to teach them Eng
lish in their off-duty hours.
Their reactions are those of many
other islanders across the Pacific,
whose livelihood was smashed by
the hungry Japs but is being re-
stored by American civil government
units.
Marshall islanders months ago
loosed a barrage of sketchily writ
ten appeals to the Americans to
stay.
The navy can handle farming and
school teaching, but annexation re-
quests, says fleet headquarters,
definitely will have to await U. 5.
and United Nations determination
of future policy.
Most of the islands are former
Jap mandates.

TUCKER T0LEAD
TEACHER GROUP

At a meeting Of the Brunswick
county unit Of the North Carolina
Education association held recent.
ly in Leland, Clean M. Tucker,
principal Of Leland High school,
was elected president to succeed
Mrs. Gay McKeithan, and Mrs.
Eva Mae Knox, second grade
teacher, was elected vice-president.
A discussion by the group Of
pedagogs on the proposed Merit
System was held. No definite &C.
ton wa staken by the association
until the teachers went into the
matter thoroughly. The teachers
approved the recommendations Of
the Governors Commission, the
main point being a study Of the
whole field Of salary schedules
where the Merit System is now
being practiced, and that every
precaution be taken to make the
system, If adopted in the state, the
best that could be offered to the
teachers.
The new Brunswick president,
who is a member Of the State Leg
islative committee Of the NCEA,
empha sized that teachers should
neither adopt nor disapprove the
proposed system while it is in a
definite period Of study, but that
all teachers should seek to know
the true worth Of any proposal
made which would affect the lives
Of children, and that after a care
full and thorough study, they should
then take a definite stand for or
against the system.
The tentative statement of work
ing policies and principles of the
Governors Commission on Study
of Merit Rating Of teachers,
which the NCEA committee has
accepted as a study procedure, has
been mimeographed and distrib-
uted to all Brunswick teachers for
further consideration.

therefore, not be amiss to refer to
history. When World War / was
forced upon us, it was the fortune of
our country that the reins of govern
ment were in the hands of that great,
courageous liberal Woodrow Wilson
No previous war was ever waged with
more vigor, or more honor to our
country, and when victory was won,
tho United States was the most
potent influence for good in the
world
To this defeat of Wilson's plan, we
can rightly charge the bloody world
conflict now known as World War II,
as well as other wars of aggression.
At the conclusion of Wilson's admin
istraticn, the republicans took COM
plete control of our government. His
administration had been clean and
free OF corruption, the war had been
conducted without graft, and the
lords of greed, of avarice and dishon-
osty, having long been held in check,
were ready and eager for the kill.
