program is badly balanced as
between strictly money crops
such as cotton and tobacco, and
live stock, dairying, grains and
the like.
"It is too much to claim that
the development of North Caro-
lima ports would result in a COM
plete solution of these problems.
It cannot be doubted, however,
that the reasonable and sound
development of our ports would
bring about almost Immediately
industrial development in this
Sc ton where it is so badly
needed. A study of the port
states to the north and south OF
us will indicate how completely
this is true.
Furthermore, one of tn e
greatest needs of North Caro-
lima, agriculturally and industri-
ally, is the processing of the
states own products. Eastern
North Carolina, for example,
grows in great abundance such
crops as peanuts and soy beans,
which are susceptible of almost
unlimited processing for food
and other useful purposes. I'm
fortul ltely, however, almost the
entire crop is shipped elsewhere
to be processed, ultimately, in
part, to be shipped back to US
in finished products, bringing a
high price. Undoubtedly, better
shipping facilities through our
ports would attract to North
Carolina many processing plants
dealing with peanuts, soy beans,
corn and wheat products, can
neries, fertilizer plants, lumber
processing plants, and the like.
"It is with these things in
mind that the General Assembly
of 1945 created for the first time
in the history of the state an
overall ports commission, desig-
mated as North Carolina State
Ports Authority. Under the re-
quirements of the Act, a mem
Der of the commission was ap-
pointed from each Of the coun-
ties of Carteret, New Hanover,
Brunswick and Cumberland.
The other three members are
from upstate, one being a lead
ing textile manufacturer,
another prominent in the furni-
ture field, and the third an exec
utive officer of a large tobacco
processing company.
"The General Assembly in
creating this Ports Authority
made no appropriation of funds.
However, thanks to the undaunt-
ed faith and untiring energy Of
the able chairman of the com
mission, R. B. Page, with the
unanimous support of the other
members, much was accom-.
plished during the first two
years of its existence.
During the year 1916 negoti.
ations we're successfully con-
Guided under which the Federal
Works Administration allotted tc
the State Ports Authority 800, 600
for the purpose of making a full
and comprehensive port devel-
opment and traffic survey. With
the aid of one of the foremost
engineering and traffic concerns
of America, such a survey is
nearing completion. 1t will con-

comprehensive survey ever
made of the needs and posi-
bilities of port developments in

General Deyers explained that in
addition to this opportunity to
choose his field of specialists train
ing, the Army recruit who meets
prescribed qualifications may also
qualify for enrolment in one of the
Potential Leaders Courses now
conducted by the Army Ground
Forces.
This leadership training pro-
gram, he said, serves not only to
train enlisted men for the respon-
sibilities of on-commissioned Off
GERS but to prepare outstanding
men for enrolment in officer cam
didate school and advancement to
commissioned status. The six-week
leadership courses are open only to
men who show potential leadership
ability and have average or super
ior intelligence.
General Devers said the preset
ected school plan is open to men be-
tween the ages of IL and "a, inclu-
sive, who are high school graduates
or can show that their practical
experience has given them an equi-
valent education. Army Ground
Forces schools in which courses are
now available under this plan, he
said, are the Artillery School at
Fort Sill, Okla; the Seacoast
Branch of the Artillery School at
Fort Winfield Scott, Calf; the
Armored School at Fort Knox, Ky;
and the Army Ground Forces
Physical Training and Athletic
Directors School at Camp Lee, Va.
Typical Army Ground Forces
courses in which prospective re-
cruits may request enrolment, ac-
cording to General 'Devers, include
the Motor and Truck Vehicle Main
tenance Course at the Artillery
School; and the Submarine Mining
Operations Course at the Seacoast
Branch of the Artillery School.
The Army Ground Forces com
mander emphasized that although
only high school graduates or the
equivalent can take advantage o.
( the preseIected school plan, mer
who have not completed high schoo
may enlist Immediately in the Arm!
and, after completing basic mill
tary training, apply for enrollmen

GENERAL DEYERS, AGF COM
MANDER, CITES ARMY CAREER
OPPORTUNITIES

The Army's new pre-selected
school plan and leadership training
program provide exceptional OPP
portunities for Intelligent and am
bilious young men to qualify for
career service in the Infantry, Ar
tillery, on Armored Cavalry, ac-
cording to Gen. Jacob l.. Devers,
commanding general of the Army
Ground Forces.
The pre-selected school plan,
General Devers, said, makes it pos
sible for a man between the ages of
II and 81, inclusive, with a high
school education or it's equivalent
to select one of the Army's so
specialist training courses before
actually enlisting.
He explained that a prospective
recruit may choose his two fayorite
fields OF interest from among the
Army's many career opportunities
such as construction, crafts, me-
chanical, scientif1c-medical-
cal, machine shop, or electrical and
radio. In each of these two fields he
may indicate two specialist train
ing courses he would like to take.
IL he is accepted for enrolment in
one of the four courses he chooses,
and is satisfied with the course, he
may then enlist in the Regular Ar
my for three, four, or five years
with positive assurance that he will
be assigned to that course.
Designed to increase the educa-
tional value of Army service
to young men and to provide addi-
tional incentives for career service
in the Army, the pre-selected schoo
plan is open not only to recruits
who want to serve in the Infantry
Artillery, or Armored Cavalry, bur
to men who would like to enter ont
of the administrative or technica
services.
tThe privilege of enlisting in th'
Regular Army specifically for train
ing in one of these specialist cour
ses is one of the greatest career in
centives we can offer young men,
/ General Devers said "These cour
ses include not only military spec
! ialties but technical trades which
man can follow in civilian lif
whenever he retires from tn

they are in the Army may do so
