Problems
By LARSEN

WASHINGTON. - Tie Depart.
ment of Agriculture reports that it
has had to turn down requests
from thousands of veterans to help
refinance farms which threaten to
fold up. The department says the
most Of these farms just aren't
capable of being worked at a
profit, and it would be foolish to
put more money into them.
The big reason for this unfortu-
nate situation is that veterans
have bought land which simply
isn't good enough for successful
farming, and there are many con-
tributing reasons, too.
The New York State College OF
Agriculture has put out a pam.
phlet which the Department OF
Agriculture recommends every
prospective CT farmer read before
deciding to become a farmer. It
lists m a mistakes veterans
should avoid. Here they re-:
Do not buy a farm until you
have talked over your plans with
the county agricultural agent or
the local veterans advisory COM
mittee. They can help you avoid
booby-trap farms.

One Dissenter
The proposal for action against
pettlng was adopted with but one
asserting vote at a joint meeting
wednesday night of the Student
Senate and faculty's committee on
student affairs.
Dean of men E. E. Stafford,
who said he was ''snocked" by
couples "all tangled up" in public
said he would refer the reccp-
mendation to Dean of Students
Fred H. Turner, who is out of the
city at present. If Turner approves
the action, he said, the regular

LUMBERTON. May 2.-Ex-
cepting the last few days of the
past week which have been on
the cool side, the Border Belt
has been favored with warm,
sunshiny weather since April
18th, states R. C. Rankin,
supervisor of sales on Lumber
TONS tobacco market. At the
present. time ideal weather
prevails. God rains came on
the 25th and 26th and, with
warmth and moisture in the
soil, freshly planted tobacco is
doing fine. In the early fields
the first tobacco set out is
taking root nicely; stands are
almost perfect, and this part
of the crop is off to a good,
growing start. It is hard to
estimate the precent Of the
crop in the field at this time
as planting dates have been
spotted, being governed by the
effect of blue mold, but splend-
i'd seasons have speeded up

RURAL HEALTH

NEW BERN, May 1.-THE
need of better educational ad-
vantages and health care, as
well as better roads, for the
rural people of this section and
all North Carolina was stress
ed by State Representative A.
c. Edwards of Hookerton in
addresses before the Jasper
Farm Bureau and Brinson
Memorial Farm Bureau units
in Craven county. Declaring
that rural school children are
entitled to but do not have the
same educational advantages
enjoyed by urban pupils, the

physicians prefer to locate in
larger cities and thus leave
rural communities in many
instances without proper medi-
cal care.

The War Department has an- nounced through u. 8. Army Re- crtiiting Service, in Waterbury, Q startling change in it's policy on re- enllstments, It. Harry o. Rolf, re- veaied. This is in keeping with the new accelerated program of secur- ink voluntary replacements for men now in service who deside to ry- turn to civilian life. A nationwide advertising campaign is now in progress so that all veterans will understand the new regulation. Formerly men had only 20 days in which to reinlist and hold their grade. Now they have 90 days from the time of discharge to the day of reenlisting. This allows veterans a longer time to look around in civ- ilian life before deciding what to do.
 Prior to this announcement, vet erans had only a month to act. Now the January 31 deadline has neen removed.
 Thousands of these non-comniis- stoned ratings were awarded to men of responsibility and intelligence during the war and many of these men will be needed in the peace- time Regular Army to pass on to new recruits the lessons learned during the war. For this reason the War Department is giving these men the opportunity of retaining those ratings in the Regular Army is they reenlist.
 By reenlisting, these men will also receive bonuses amounting to $50 for each year of previous SGT vice, in addition to mastering pay when they are discharged from the Army of the United States to enlist in the Regular Army. They also will be granted a 90-day fur tough with travel, paid to their home and return, and if they re- enlist for 8 period of three years, will be given their choice of branch of service and overseas theater.
