That's That
 By BRUCE GUSTIN

Telephone Workers made in aban- doning demands for settlement of the telephone strike on nation wide basis. This is matter that should be handled on local ba- sis between regional companies and their employees. The idea that telephone wages should be the same everywhere, regardless of local conditions, is plainly un- sound. Putting bargaining between the union and the companies back on local basis has hastened the end of the strike in many places Custer of five Communist min z siters from the cabinet looks like on attempt by the Ramadier gov ernment to put Frances political house in order to get another loan from the United States. The one : billion, three hundred seventeen million dollar loan obtained here last year is about gone. France is reported to be planning to ask for seven hundred million dollars more. In view of President Tru- mans policy and congressional opposition to American financial aid to. Communist dominated countries, French Premier Rama dier probably thinks Frances chances of making another "touch' in this country depends upon elimination of the Commun- ists from his cabinet.
 There's an old saying that the way to fight fire is with fire The only way the United States can ! m bat Russian propaganda abroad is with American informa- tion. The $31, 100000 appropria- ton sought by the state depart ment for its cultural relations" program may be excessive. But reasonable provision for continu- ance of the American foreign broadcasting program certainly should be made.
 According to the Soviet govern ment newspaper - Izvestia - the newspapers of Russai are free and honest, while those of the west are corrupt, dishonest and distrusted
 by their readers. The Russians also claim to have democracy. Their notions of what constitutes
 freedom of the press are as fam tastic as their interpretation of to-
 talitarianism as democracy.
 !! Freedom of the press in Soviet Russia means government control of the press. Here in the United
 States it means freedom from gov
 ernment dictation. The bill of
 rights of our constitution, which
 is the foundation of the American
 free press, provides that Congress shall make no law abridging
 freedom of the press"
 Congress has talked lot about
 Presidential succession. One inn
 portant point which has been ig-
 nored until recently is Vice Pres
 idential succession. When Presi-
 dent dies in office, the Vice Pres
 ident succeeds him. No provision
 has been made for a successor to
 the Vice President, in such a case.
 To remedy that, Congressman
 Gary of Virginia has proposed a
 constitutional amendment provid-

r CROP
SET AT $50, 900 BALES

RALEIGH, Oct. g. @ RE
ports October l from growers
and ginners indicate a 1947 cot
ton crop of 450, 900 bales in
North Carolina, the Federal
State Crop Reporting Service
stated today.
The figure is two per cent IN
der the September l forecast
and about two per cent greater
than the $40, 000-bale crop har-
vested in 1916.
Harvesting of cotton is well
advanced in Southern Piedmont
counties and getting into full
swing in Coastal areas, the serv-
ice reported. The crop got off to
a late start in the spring, and
many growers had difficulty
getting a stand. AS a result,
said the report, cotton is open
ing very unevenly and harvest
ing in some sections may be ex-
tended over a longer period
than usual.

Mrs. L. O. Ellis, executive
secretary of Associated Charl-
ties, said that her organization
had no immediate intention OF
making a drive for funds but
that they might have to ask the
public for donations if they did
not secure revenue from other
sources.
Chairman Addison Hewlett,
Sr., one of the commissioners
absent last Monday, said
Wednesday, II do not think care
of INDECENT should be paid for
from a public treasury. I feel
that a certain amount of respon-
sibility rests with the citizens of
the community"
The commissioners were pre-
scented with copies of a survey
and statement to Mayor E. l..
White from the state welfare de-
partment that consolidation of
all relief activity under the
county welfare department had
been tried successfully and was
recommended for Wilmington

plain that agriculture activities

Anderson's suggestions for
centering more activities in

/. Setting up a USDA farmer
elected county COMMITTEES in
each county.
z. Housing all agricultural
agencies in the county at one
location.
3. Setting UP a USDA state
committee in each state.
4. Putting the Soil Conserva-

Conservation program activities

5. Provision for an assistant
secretary of agriculture. The
secretary could assign him
national responsibility with re-
spect to the state and county

could be given responsibility
for fitting together the work of
departmental agencies carried
out in the counties.
