We still have to live with ourselves.
There has never been a major all
crops failure in this area. We do nor
anticipate one now. 1t is our belief that
a short crop, particularly now that al
most the entire North Carolina CROP
has been damaged one way or another,
will result in higher prices for tobacco
that is sold. This will partially offset
the shortage in so far as income is con-
cerned.
Furthermore, there seems to be
heavy planting of sweet potatoes. New
uses are being found for sweet potatoes
every day. There is a good chance that
sweet potatoes will bring profitable
margin to farmers this year. No one
can saw in advance. If he could, we
would all be rich. Yet, the probability
of a profit in sweet potatoes remains
and there is good chance that farmers
in this area will be no worse oft this
season than in many of these past.
At any rate, whether they have
good year or bad one. 1t seems to us,
our actions should still reflect the fact
that they, the farmers of the area, are
the backbone of Tabor City. The rea-
son why business is here. The mean:
of your support and ours.

When the word started coming to
eyeryone's attention that the tobacco
crop was going to be short this year,
businessmen, statesmen, and persons IN
every walk of life started getting eau
tious.
Behind it all was the thought that
if the farmers have a bad year, local
business will be at a standstill and on
TOD of that the credit business that has
gone on since last year will be hard to
collect.
One man was heard making the
statement that ''I'm not putting out
anything else on credit"
Well, that's everyone's privilege.
He can extend credit when and in the
amounts he personally wants to and is
is able to.
Yet, let's look at our souls a mom-
ent. Should the tobacco crop suffer
terrific loss, and it is definitely below
par although recent rains and cool
weather have helped immensely, could

How to deal with the case of the
elderly has been commanding the in
terse attention of industry and the
iaboc unions. The unions have concen-
trated on an effort to gain retirement
pensions for their members of 500 or
more month, social security payments
Included. They have signed number
of highly favorable contracts, notably
with u. S. Steel, Chrysler, and General
Motors. According to Walter Reuther
they hope, in 20 years, to make $500
a r:onth the standard pension. How
ever, whether or not this occurs, few
believe that such pension plans are any

thing. the majority of workers are not
unionized, and it is hardly likely that
they would be willing to do without
adequate pensions while a relatively
small group reaped the harvest. For

The reckless leaders of the firemen's
union want to force down the throats
of the railroads and the public ridic-

been twice ruled out by Presidential
