TABLEL AND

A weekly discussion devoted to the

As was stated in the first part of
this article, it is difficult to see-to
comprehend the small losse, Of top
soil which are the BEGINNINGS Of sheet
erosion. When the land was first
cleared Of trees and plowed for farm
ing, it was covered with leaf mold
decaying leaves and plants, which had
caused changes in the upper layers of
the soil by reacting with il chemically
and by building up the dark grey
brown. humus in the upper part of
the soil. These portions Of the soil are
found in all undisturbcd areas of Car
lett County, where the forest still
stands, either without having been
cut at all or cut over lightly for
for timber without being cleared. It
IS these portions of the soil in which
the roots Of crop plants spread and
from which the roots derive the most
OF their nourishment When the land
IS cleared and plowed, the soil is laid
bare to the rains, from which il was
once protected by the trees standing
above it. Now that the trees are gone.

Acme Rebuilding Program

AS n of the leading plants in one
of the Wilmington areas principal in
dustries, it is interesting to learn that
the Acme Fertilizer Company has re-
ceive a CPA permit to proceed with a
$4,000 rebuilding program with work
to begin shortly after the first of the
year. On November II fire did con-
siderable damage to one wing of this
plant, and the chief expenditure will
go to restore this wing.
While the Acme company has been
under some handicap since the fire, it
had solved it's difficulties within a few
days by exchanging materials and oper-
atoms with another fertilizer factory.
Naturally, however, the company will
welcome a return to centralized produc-
ton.
The work to be done will provide en-
ployment to idle workers for some time
another source of qualification at tho
CPA's action.
Any consideration of fertilizer
would be incomplete without noting
that cotton planters in the Mississinni
delta complain that the manufacturers
nave cancelled N per cent to IS ner
cent OF ammonium nitrate shipments
INTO their area. The information is
gleaned from an item in a recent issue
Oh the Wall Street Journal. The Journal

they lament, cotton planting will be cut
lana yields on what is grown will be
sharply reduced.
Growers place the blame for the
shortage on the War Department, say
ing the Army borrowed ammonium
nitrate to send to Germany and japan
and won't pay it back. Government
spokesman reply that Army borrow
lngs were from supplies already mark
ed for export rather than domestic

SuccOr For The Needy

One cannot read of the severe earth
quake that killed an undetermined num-
Der of Japanese, destroyed buildings
and homes to an indefinite but large
number, in southern Japan on Saturday
without recalling that other temblor
on September 1, 1923, which vented it's
fury on Tokyo and Yokohama, with an
estimated death toll of 99,331 persons.
Nor can it be forgotten that the United
States government and the American
people contributed millions of dollars
for the relief of sufferers, still living
but left homeless and starving, or that
some two decades later Japan repaid
it's debt with it's sneak attack on Pearl
Harbor.
It is hard to overlook Pearl Harbor,
the needless slaughter of thousands of
Americans in the PHILIPPINES, or any of
the horrors of the war in the Pacific,
ever in the face of this act of God
WllICI IdO UIOuSIlt QlSdSCGI W 81 lldIlv
japanese. Yet there is a manifest duty
that must be performed in the stricken
area, a duty to the people creeping
among the debris of shattered homes,
a duty to prevent pestilence in the
earthquakes wake, a duty to salvage
from the wreckage the human lives,
even Of sc recent a foe, that without
aid would join the hundreds, possibly
thousands of dead.
The broad view is that they are not
responsible for the acts of their late war
lords, or if guilty of connivance with
them, still may be brought to full real
ization of their error through kindly
ministrations in their emergency. It
is not too much to expect that this is
the position both the government at
Washington and at General McArthur's
headquarters in Tokyo will take.

Buy Christmas Seals

The Health and tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION finds encouragement in the
fact that Wilmingtonians have contrib
uted $500 to the Christmas Seal
fund, which raises the total to within
$4,000 of the goal. At the same time,
the Association, which must curtail it's
activities if it falls short Of the goal,
also finds cause for anxiety In the I'M
subscribed balance, particularly as
Christmas, when the campaign auto
matically ends, is but two days off.
While the Junior Chamber of Com
merce has done a splendid job in selling
tuberculosis bonds, and the school chill
dren of the city have contributed far
in excess of their last years gifts, only
two thousand of the seven thousand
letters, containing Christmas Seals to-
gether with an appeal for their pur-
chase, have been answered. Five thou
sand recipients, or a few less who may
not have been reached because OF ad-
dress changes or removal from the city,
have not accepted their privilege to
contribute. If a fair percentage of
them send in their money in the time
still remaining any prospective curtail-
ment of the Associations work may be
avoided.
Considering that a life, or several
lives, may be at stake, persons who have
failed to help are encouraged to make
up their remissness. 1t is to be re-
membered that the progress against
tuberculosis is largely and directly
tracable to the Christmas Seal cam
paigns that have been held for more
than a quarter century. The disease is
no longer the scourge it once was. But
it remains an ever present menace to
mortal life.
The work that has been done will
not be finished until the disease is
stamped out. Your purchase of seals
can help.

TOP O. THE MORNING

The friendly beasts their stories told:
'T', said the donkey, shaggy and brown,
"Carried His mother up hill and down,
Carried her safely to Bethlehem town..
'I", said the COW all white and red,
"Gave Him my manger for His bed,
Gave Him my hay to pillow His head.
'I", said the sheep, with the curly horn,
"Gave Him wool for His blanket warm;
He wore my coat on Christmas Morn
"I". said the camel, all yellow and black,
"Ove the desert, upon my back
Brought Him a gift in the Wise Mans
pack".

law, toss in a few billion dollars of pub
lie money to pay the freight, and then
sit back and watch the miracles occur.
The compulsory public health bill be-
fore Congress is an example of this kind
of thinking. At a cost of from $4,000
900, 900 to $4,000, 600, 900 a year, it
would, in theory, produce wonderful i'm
provements in the physical well-being
of our people. But the plain fact is there
is much more to public health than a
law.
For example, public health is tied in
with such problems as housing and nu-
trition-and the proposed bill does
nothing about those problems. Improv-
ed public health also involves proven
tive medicine which will keep the in
dividual from being attacked by dis
ease-and the bill in question cannot
speed medical experiment and progress.
To the contrary, by r%egimenting the
doctor the bill would undoubtedly ham
per progress.

Dragline Is Essential

It should not be difficult to convince
the National Housing Authority official
scheduled to arrive in Wilmington next
Monday that the city needs a dragline
for use in Burnt Mill creek.
This minor stream has a bad habit
of turning itself into a river whenever
the rainfall becomes heavy, flooding
cellars over a sizeable area.
Furthermore, Burnt Mill creek could
be converted into a beautiful park, as
it meanders across the city, with it's
banks handicapped and lined with paths
dotted with decorative benches.

bride path, and Wilmington has long

You remember the parable Of the
unfrultful fig tree. The owner Of
the vineyard came three years
seeking for fruit on it but found
none. He then told the dresser Of
his vineyard to cut it down, be-
cause it was numbering the ground
to no profit. But the dresser beg
ged that it be given another year,
while he sought to make it fruit
full. We have no means OF know
ing how many of us are living on
this extra time. What we do with
1t is of far more consequence TO
us than what the world is worth
in dollars and cents.
And so as we worship the Babe

None of these improvements can be
