rr THE INTERESTS Of employees, stockholders, GUS
toners and the public, the management OF Johns
Manvile concentrated efforts in 1916 toward increased
production for urgent postwar demands and broad
ened growth of the company.
Sales employment, and payrolls set new record for
full peacetime year. Profits improved over l945
This was accomplished in spite of labor shortages
due largely scarcity of housing and competition of
unemployment benefits strikes at two of M largest
plants lasting from November, 1945 to March, l94o;
delays in getting machinery, materials and con-
struction supplies; government controls which forced
the discontnuance of certain products, and generally
unbalanced conditions.
Here are the highHghs of Johns -Manuiue's annual
statement for the year l946:*
Te4aI Income . ... $92 million
For oil costs mos. show" below, 45A million
TO employees for salaries and wases 39H million
TO government for taxes Ih million
To stockholders in dividends 3h million
Leaving in the business 2H million
A. Earnings after taxes were 5000 per share of
stock.

ess than 1870 since prewar l94l Average srag
hourly wage 1870 higher than the beginning of
1o4l and pxces of materials substantially higher

DYE.REM0VING METHODS
LISTED FOR FEED BAGS

Many Delaware homemakers
know that the soft sturdy cotton
fabric of many flour and feed bags
can be used for all sorts of house
hold purposes such as aprons, tea
towels, luncheon cloths, draperies
and even bedspreads.
But the trick is getting the black
printing off the material. Five diff
ierent methods have been suggest
ed by textile authorities of the L. S.
Department of Agriculture.
/. Scrub the bags with water and
laundry soap. This often removes
nearly all the ink. The rest usually
disappears if bags are boiled i'll
soap water for half an hour and
rinsed. A chlorine bleach may be
used to take out the last traces of
black.
=. Wet bar of laundry soap and
rub on the dry bag until it is en-
tirely covered with thick layer OF
soap. Roll up the bag and let it
stand several hours. Then wash
and boil If neceSSar.".
3. Soak the Dag in kerosene over
night. Then wash-first in luke
warm water. then in sOapy water
and rinse throughly.
4. Cover the black print with lart
OF soft petroleum jelly, rubbing the
grease into the fabric thoroughly
Leave overnight to loosen the black
then wash in sOapy lukewarm water
and rinse
5. Boil bags in water with sodium
hydrOsulphite or other dye remOv
ers, which may be purchased a
drug stores. Follow the directions
given on the package. Rinse we'll.

July %, 1947
Sir:
Much contrary to the sugges-
ton of Mr.. 49,. Name withheld ----
and few others, the vote on as
sessing tobacco ten cents per
acre went over with a bang.
wouldn't you imagine it would
have gone over just aoAlt as cas-
lily had the assessment been one
dollar instead of dime? Just
watch for the raise suggested for
the next vote! With an equal
impact came the stormy flood
waters in many sections, leaving
devastation in its wake; now
thousands of pounds OF golden
leaves hang wilted around the
stalks, and there is not much hb-
erty we can use to change the sit
uation. but the most glorious
thought is that "All people should
be good people"

As you no doubt know, the
county does not derive any OF the
funds from fishing licenses, con-
fiscation sales, or fines. but does
get so percent Of the Fur Seal
Sales and as percent Of the Hunt
ing License sales. This fund does
not apply to payment OF your
salary and expenses, as you are
paid from the States portion.
Under separate cover we are
sending you 100 resident Fish

Hoping that the above informa-
ton is that which you desired,

Letters To The
Editor

August /, l947
Dear Editor:
You are to be commended o.
your editorial in last weeks Tri-
buae relative to paving roads in.
to Tabor City. How many recall
the story often repeated last fall
that the roads could not be paved
due to cold weather. Here it is
getting along to the fall of the
year and still nothing definite on
The roads yet, as promised.
-hilk an excellent time to pave
the roads would be during tobacco
season so as to hurt Tabor tobacco
business still more. This is not
ny idea but | wouldn't he a bit
surprised that something like that
wouldn't happen as our neighbors
re trying to have everything led
INTO Whiteville. In riding over
the county you can see quite a bi.
VI activity in the way of road
building. but on closer observation
YOU will see that they lead into
Whiteville. A number of farmers
living in the Tabor City area car
Wy their tobacco and other farm
PRODUCTS to Whiteville, not by
'hoice but by necessity due to tho
accessibility of paved roads lead
ng into Whiteville. Is this what
he State calls a market
Dad. that is. does it always have
o lead into Whiteville. to enter
his select group of roads.
| would like to remind the
eople Of Tabor City that taxes
re assessed and paid by farmers
n this area. So why should the
State continuously forget that Ia
hor City is in Columbus county.
What has this community receiv-
ID in return for taxes paid during
he last several years?
Mr.. Editor, l could go on about
a few other needed improvements
in Tabor, as the telephone and ell
ectric systems, but where do you
wind up? | think anybody living
here can answer that. Maybe
someday the people in Tabor City
will vote for someone who will
be friend to this community
and here's hoping that day won't
be too far off.
If this letter is published | would
your deleting my
name. | think it would be an ex-
rellent idea for others to write
Of their opinion.
Sincerely,
A Reader
Editors Note:
AS requested, the name of the
writer of tbs letter has been with
held upon request but held in
the files. His opinions are to be
because they go to
show that The Tribune isn't the
only faction in Tabor City that
realizes we have been completely
forgotten in Columbus county, es-
pecially insofar as road improve
nent is concerned.
