 Crowley, Markham on Board
 The Crowley reelected along with Emanuel is Wisconsin Democrat who formerly held high government posts as Alien Proper ty Custodian and head of the Federal Deposit Insurance Cor poration. While on Uncle Sam's payroll, he drew a far bigger salary from Emanuels Standard holding company combine. There was much criticism of this divided loyalty" at the time.
 Markham, also reelected as di- rector, is Alien Property Custodian now. His presence on the Stand ard boad indicates that Emanuel wants to have good Washington connections.
 Despite his international ties, Emanuel continues, year after year, as boss of two huge holding company systems reaching into many vital industries. Through his radio stations, he is in pos ition to influence public opinion on wide scale.
 The S. E. c. says its hearings will ask many questions about the Standard holding company empire. The commission is pretty conservative nowadays, but it may reveal some startling facts.

Middletown News
By CHARLES c. GARVIN.

If you didn't attend the program at the Zion AME church last Sum- day afternoon when Mrs. Eunice Jackson presented two groups of singers from Hartford. The Singing Kees, a group of five young women from Hartford, started the program and their wonderful rendition of a variety of songs warmed the hearts of many Christians.
 Two little girls and two little boys known as the Jackson Jubalee singers offered their selections with great satisfaction. It was amazing to see and hear them perform. Their rendition of the many songs they sang gave inspiration to an under standing audience.
 Up on the north end of the city at Little Zion Baptist Church, Rev. z. A. Hart's subject for the morning services was Increase our faith" This subject was used at an oppor- tune time because in these days men and women of all walks of life need to increase their faith. We must have faith in someone. But first of all, faith in God and our selves will carry US through our darkest hours.
 Mrs. Marie Cutler will present the Meriden Gospel Singers tomorrow at the Little Zion Baptist Church. This church is planning to build new building in the near future. It has already purchased a plot of ground on the corner of William and Sumner streets.
 It is nearing conference time in New England and we find the loyal workers in Middletown get ting together and trying to get their contributions to send in. Sun day, May 26 at three in the after noon Mesdames John Davis and T. J. Riddick will sponsor baby con- test. They are getting up program to accompany the contest. The names of the babies to enter are as follows: Joyce Marie Weston, Joan Byrd, Mary Lee Graham, Curley Ready, Jr., Patsy Hunter, and Inez Meyers.

 Players

Tar Heel
Gardener
BY John HI. Harris
N. C. State College

A friend of mine suggested few
days ago that we should change the
term, Victory gardens, to peace
gardens since the war is over. My
reaction is that we still have the
victory and peace to win and, until
that time, why not continue calling
them the victory gardens. In fact,
the victory garden has large part
to play in winning the peace. There
can be no worldwide peace so long
as there are thousands who are
hungry; hungry through no fault
of their own.
Now. let's leave off the philoso-
ply and go into the garden. With
spring almost a month early this
year. it should be safe, except in
the mountains, to plant practically
all Of the tender vegetables. I said
practically because there are two
or three exceptions. Lima beans,
eggplant, and ckra, for instance,
require not only warm days but
warm nights as well before they
will grow satisfactorily. Except
in the eastern part Of the state, I
would delay planting these vege-
tables until around May l.
There is an old saying about
planting the garden on Good Fri
day. That is exactly what too
many people do. There is nothing
wrong with planting part of the
garden on Good Friday; in fact,
this is an excellent practice. Too
many people, however, plant the
entire garden on this day and then
wait until the next year before
planting again. In other words,
what I mean is, make successive
paintings of most vegetables. Have
them coming in throughout the sea-
son. The gardener that brags
about having vegetables to throw
away is not wise gardener. Plant
ings of snap beans and corn, for
instance, should be made every
two weeks throughout the season.
Two or three paintings of tomatoes,
squash, and lima beans should be
sufficient. Other vegetables, such
as carrots, mustard, turnips, let
tuce, beets, broccoli and cabbage,
should only be planted in very ear
ly spring for a spring crop and
again in late summer for fall
crop.

Remove all stumps, wood de-

Kill Pockets
leave clear space between the
woodwork and the ground, adequate
to allow ventilation and subse-

should be made in the foundation
to prevent dead air pockets and
to provide frequent changes of air.

KILLING POULTRY
DISEASE LOCATED
New Malady Believed To
Be Of Para-Colon Type;
Data Checked

COLLEGE STATION, Raleigh,
April AR. E. Greaves, diagnosti-
clan of the State College Poultry
Science Department, announced to-
day the isolation by the college la
boratory of two previously unknown
poultry diseases.
Early study of the first of the
maladies has led to the belief that
its bacteria is of the para-colon
type.
The second bacteria, unknown in
recorded poultry diseases, is now
undergoing bacterial and serologi-
cal tests.
The diseases were discovered by
Greaves in examination of ailing
fowls sent to the laboratory by
North Carolina poultrymen. More
than 5000 ceases" are submitted
to the college laboratory for exami-
nation and diagnosis each year,
Greaves said.
IA the past year." the scientist
said, eve have examined parrots,
rabbits, guinea pigs, thousands of
chickens and turkeys, and one mis-
directed fellow even brought in a
golfish with a stomach ache
Greaves, a State College grad
uate, has been attached to the
poultry laboratory since 1927. He
said that study of several months
probably will be required to gath
er full information on the two new
poultry diseases. The phantom
germs must first be introduced into
experimental fowls for observation
of effect and then subjected to ex-
tensive laboratory tests.
Most common disease found in
the hundreds of baby chicks sent
to the laboratory, Greaves observ-
ed, is of pullorum origin.
After the ailing fowl is examined
and its trouble diagnosed, techni-
clans then advise the sender about
what may be done to prevent and
remedy its recurrence.

Favorable spring weather, cou-
