CAROLINA B 81
BEGAN ON $3.50

The Carolina Building and Loan
association was organized in Feb.
ruary, 1912, with an initial invest
ment $3.50 by the late L. W.
Moore. In the first series of the
association there were ia SUBJ
scribers to shares, the offices being
located at 1913 IL Princess Street
in a space approximately 6 IL x
20 TT. After the second year larger
quarters were necessary and the
entire building at 1913 Princess
Street was leased.
So great was the progress of the
institution that in 1918 they moved
to 205 Princess Street, and in 1921
to its present location.
The Carolina reached its frs
s'Million Dollar mark in January
1924, and on its 25th Anniversary
had assets of one and a half mil
lions. The 1.-TWO Million Dollar
mark was reached in December
1888; the ''Three Million Dollar

Emergence Of Unemploy-
ment AS Big Issue Test OF
OF Business Stability
By Cambridge Associates
Whether governmental machin-

Whether governmental machln-
cry can be developed to even out
fluctuations in the business curve
appears now to be a question that
will not be settled until unemploy-
ment again becomes serious is
sue. Sometime, however, the at
tempt will be made and the cur
rent debate will attain new sig
nificance.
The formidably titled Murray
Wagner Thomas-O'Mahoney bill
aroused much controversy. One of
its chief novelties was the pro-
vision that would establish an an
nual survey Of business needs and
prospects and attempt to gea.
government spending to the re-
quirements OF the times.
Even in its original form the bill
did not guarantee "sixty million
jobs" The planning board pre-
sumably had the difficult task OF
defining full employment
Fuu employment
Opposition to this so-called Full
Employment legislation was based
on the continuing and increased
injection of government authority,
the possibility that government
spending would be excessive and
politics dominated, and that no
further legislation was necessary
to give the government the right
to increase or decrease expendi-
lures for necessary government
works as the situation demanded.
Whether this specific piece OF
proposed legislation was suited to
the purpose will not be argued
here. 1t does appear certain that
when unemployment mounts
above six million there will be in
tensified pressure for government
action. 1t will be desirable, SEEM
ingly, if the problem is considered
before emergency steps have to
substitute for better considered
measures.
The Argument
Many economists believe that
the sixty million jobs" goal Is
higher than is necessary or desir-
able. During the war, with nearly
eleven million Of the best segment
of the labor force in uniform,
miracles of production were &C.
complished by a working popula-
ton that numbered less than IS
million at its peak.
Obviously, longer work weeks
were the rule than have been
found efficient in peacetime but it
is also true that many OF these
workers were phys { lily ILL
equipped and hurriedly trained for
their jobs. The same volume OF
production IN peacetime, using
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-02-17

mark in December, 1913, and the
So, 900, 100000 in December, 1945.
Throughout all of these years the
Carolina has provided systematic
plan of investment and mortgage
loan second to none. Countless
thousands have become home
owners through the B & L plans
and millions have been saved and
invested through the Carolina
systematic plans Of investment.
The association has kept pace
with the times. 1t was the first
Building and Loan Association in
Wilmington to issue full paid and
running shares; the first to bring
the IL IL cents series or 12-year
loan plan to the local borrowing
public, and now it is operating
under the monthly direct reduction
loan plan,f which is SO appealing
to borrowers. The institution has
available for lending more than
three million dollars in cash and
its record for mortage loans in
January of this year total more
than 100000 actually made.
The Carolina has every faith in
the future of Wilmington and in the
outlook for both home construction
and home financing, spokes-
man declared. 1--WE welcome the
opportunity of serving the return
ing G. Is, three of whom are now
connected with this institution,
therefore naturally we feel a keen
interest in their needs" he con-

unity Of al peace-loving nations
In the postwar period. Not since
the darkest days of the war has 1t
been SO necessary as now for the
United States, Great Britain, the
Soviet Union, China, and France to
work together. A special response
bility still rests upon these nations
to exercise Jointly, both inside and
outside the United Nations Crgani-I
zation and other machinery of inter-
national arrangements, world lead
ership toward unity and co-opera-
ton among all nations. Achieving
and maintaining that unity and CO.
operation must continue to be the
predominant duty of craftsmanship.
No matter how laborious the task,
If the large nations can agree and
act together to that end, then there
is hope that our military victories

with 1t issues and difficulties which
could not be evaded. But they knew,
too, that unless all peace-loving
nations were prepared to meet these
issues and to solve these difficulties
in a spirit Of unity and through CO.
operative action, the end Of the war
might well be followed by political
and economic chaos from which the
world could not recover for gener-
ations.
AS I look ahead, 1t is perfectly
clear to me that all nations must,
with whole-hearted devotion, con-
tinue to base their relations upon
the paramount fact that the primary
interests of each of them alike lie
in the assuring Of its security in
a world at peace, and the fostering,
In such a world, of the economic
and social well-being of its people.
They must never fail to act on the
principle that these great common
interests cannot be attained except
by the practice of justice and fair
dealing toward each other, and
through mutual confidence and
mutual respect. So long as the
governments and the peoples keep
their eyes fixed on their common
interests and are resolved to act in
accordance with this manifest prin-
ciple, they will find ways to adjust
their differences.
Only if each nation is united
within itself behind policies designed
to promote these common interests,
and only as the nations continu-
ously cooperative with each other
in support of those interests, can
we assure-for ourselves and for
those who come after us-enduring
peace and free institutions. Only
thus can we have a world order
ruled by enlightened reason and just
law rather than by stark terror and
brute force.
