Must Approve
Building and Alterations

A fire and building ordinance es-
tablishing a new fire zone and set
ting up more rigid building restric-
tons were passed by the Tabor City
Board of commissioners Tuesday
evening. Acting under authority
given by state statute, commissioners
accepted the ordinance which had
been prepared at their request by
City Attorney R. B. Mallard. Motion
for adoption came after a discussion
of the various features.
One of the principal features of
the ordinance is the requirement
that a building permit must be OBJ
tanned from Fire Chief Frank
Young, who was appointed as city
inspector, before repairs to old
buildings or construction of new
buildings may be begun.
This covers all construction within
the city limits whether within the
city limits or outside of the fire
zone.
ENLARGES ZONE
The new ordinance enlarges the
fire zone to include new business and
semi-business districts which have
been built up since the old fire zone
was established number of years
age.
! Small fees for the permits, half
, &c ~ ~, ,r,i11 ho rofainnH hV the
building inspector and the other half
turned over to the city treasury,
were set up. These fees are in line
with the policy of the smaller
towns throughout the state.
It was pointed out that the new
ordinance will not work any hard
ship upon anybody, but will estab-
lish uniform requirements to avoid
fire hazards and protect builders
against costly alterations through
failure to comply with building regu-
Iations.
Briefly the procedure is as fol-
lows:
Before starting to repair an old
building or erect new building, see
Building Inspector Frank Young.
Request for a permit will be con-
sidered and if the proposed repairs
or building plans meet the require
ments, building permit will be is
sued.
Call on Mr.. Young for an in
spection during the progress of con-
struction when changes in plans are
required.
4 On no account start repairs or
new building without a permit.
Failure to obtain one. commissioners
pointed out, may result in costly
delay.
ZONE BOUNDARIES
The new fire zone section reads as
follows:
THAT the area lying and being
within the following boundaries shall
be the fire district Beginning in
the center of the Railroad where
Seventh street crosses said railroad
and runs with the center of Seventh
street to the center of Lewis street,
thence south with the Highway 701
north with the center of Wall street

$500 Quota Set
For Holmes US0

Holmes county men still in the
armed forces represent approximate
ely Is per cent of the total from
the county who served at the height
of the war, according to Buford
Yerger, Of Jackson, state chairman
of the USO drive whick seeks to
raise S 3 $500 in the county as its
quota of Mississippi's goal of $780,
600 in a nationwide campaign to con-
tinue USO at home and overseas
during l947.
According to figures released by
state selective service headquarters,
767 men from the county still are in
the services. This compares with a
total of 3,185 who were drafted or
who enlisted during the war.
Poining out the country's stake in
supporting USO's efforts to provide
wholesome recreation and entertain
men for its men who will be in the
services during l947. Mr.. Yerger
stated that the quota asked of Mis-
sissippi during the October cam
paign represents a contribution for
each Mississippian in service which
Is only one-fifth of the average ask
ed of the nation as a whole.
Although USO had intended to
cease operations this year, it will
continue through 1947 at the request
OF President Truman and army and
navy leaders for continuation of its
recreation and entertainment SER
vices for the benefit of the more
than 10000 men who will be in

County's Farm Income
Nearly Eight Million
Dollars In 1916
Forms With Electricity
Jump From 283
To 500 Since 1o40

More than doubling their annual
gross income in comparison with
l940, as reported by the U. S.
Bureau of Census, Holmes county
farm families last year produced
crops and livestock with the record
value of more than $7,734,000. ~
This huge increase in farm reve-
nue. has already created heavy de-
mand for general farm improve
ments and for home remodeling,
according to a study released by the
Tile Council of America. With every
industry anticipating greater bust
ness in the state than before the
war, floor and wall tile manufactur-
ers alone expect their sales here to
triple in the next few years.
Increased sales of industrial pro-
ducts mean in turn a new level Of
prosperity for every local business
man and worker" said D. P. Forst,
chairman of the Councils Resident
ial construction Committee 10
The study shows that many farm
improvements were made even dur
ing the war. Since 1910, for example,
the number of farm homes reporting
electric lights here has increased
from 283 to 600. Heavy demand for
such undermining as installation Of
running water, thing of bathrooms
and improving kitchen layouts has
already resulted, according to Forst.
Forst also pointed out that farm
ers in the county today have 210
more tractors than in 1940,r accord
ing to the Bureau of Census, and
that the number of trucks on farms
has likewise increased substantially.
These facts not only indicate the
Importance of the farm market but
also make it one which no business
man or manufacturer can afford to
overlook" he said.

Industry Head
Speaks Al Rotary
$4,000 PoyroII Is
Enjoyed BY Duornt;
Expansion PIonned

Members Of the Lexington Rotary
Club heard j. W. Norwood, super
intcndcnt Of the Durant Manufactur-
ing Co, tell how industry can pro-
gress in the South.
Mr.. Norwood has headed the Du-
rant concern, manufacturing ladies'
silk hosiery. since the plant was
constructed in 1886. This plant was
the first industry located in the state
Of Mississippi under Gov. Hugh
Whites original Balance Agriculture
With Industry Act. The constitution
atty Of the legislation was carried
TO Supreme Court and the Durant
industry was the test case.
At present the Durant plant en-
ploys 1870 employees. all highly
skilled, and the payroll averages
$235.000. per year. The payroll would
have been larger except for the war.
All of the employees were re-
cruited from the ranks and trained
in the Durant plant. Very high
standards are maintained at Durant,
Mr.. Norwood stated.
"All of our employees m high
type people. They are examined for
disease and we do not take people
who drink.
"When you have from $4,000. to
$4,000. invested in a machine you
cannot afford to put an unreliable
man or woman ON it," he said.
Evidence of Mr.. Norwood per-
~sonally being sold on the South was
seen in his statement he had been
given an opportunity TO 60 back to
Indianapolis in the job of general
superintendent for all the Real Silk
mills and had turned ii down to stay
in Durant.
The Durant plant building owned
by the city, win be doubled in size
as soon as the question Fan be pre-.
sented to the voters of Durant who
will vote on a SEQ. 900 bond issue for
this purpose at ar early date.
Practically no opposition has been
voiced to the proposed expansion
and IL is expected To virtually
double the plant space and the num-
Der of employees with increased
payrools.
