Time To Start Thinking Now

Already you hear the murmurng about Whether
or not TABOR City should continue its annual Caronas
Yam Festival Before another October rolls around te
usual amount of discussion will be heard regarding the
merits of the event :, 49,. r.
Our position has long been known on the subject. III
50 far as we can remember nothing Tabor City has ever
done brought it so much credit gave better name, or
displayed the town before the widespread public IN SUCH
wholesome manner has the lam Festivals OF the past
four years. -
Now II the festival was wholesale financial loss as
it was in the beginning the price alone might make pro-
hibve But so long hard working people buckle down
to the task and raise the necessary funds Tor putting t
spectacle on then by all it should be continued
indefinitely 49,
There were very few people at the festival who didn't
feel that this years affair the best planned and man
aged of them all AS the festival 1t just naturally
grows better and people, There was absolute
" no doubt that this festival the best attended OF
them all.
In so many ways Tabor City is in rut. This event
alone has brought Tabor distinction in recent years

effort can be annual feature in Tabor City forever

Persons Denied Social
Security Benefits May
Now Be Entitled

Manv persons who filed for So
cial security benefits prior TO-
1851 and had their claims dlsai-
lowed for lack of an insured stat
us, may now be entitled to bene-
fit payments by reason OF tile
new amendments to the soclal
security law, according to N: "A.
Avera, manager of the Winning,
ton, N. C. field office of the Soclai
Security Administration.
Mr.. Avera explained that some
of these persons were insured at
one time but because of Irregular
employment under social security
they lost their insured status be,
fore attaining the age OF Do ana
were not entitled to payments at
the time they filed their CLAIMS:
/ He said that the new law restored
these individuals to their former
status and that they could be
drawing monthly payments II
they had reclaimed them by Ill
ing a new application as required
under the law.
Mr.. Avera stated that many
other persons whose claims were
disallowed were never insured be-
cause of widely scattered periods
of employment but that when
these periods of employment are
brought together under the new
law they add up to an insured
status, thus qualifying such per-
sons for monthly benefits.
Mr.. Avera pointed out that a
large number of persons who did
not previously file a claim were
told when they made inquiry as
to their status they did not work
long enough in covered employ
ment to be insured. He added
that these persons may also be
entitled to benefits and should
contact the social security office
without delay.

News About
The
Flying Squirrel

Yes, there really are Flying
Squirrels! Most people know lit
tie about them, though, because
the samal, fast-moving animals
hide away and sleep in the day
time. It is only at night that they
tirelessly explore the trees and
ground. They actually fly, too.
but not with wings.
To help him glide, the Flying
Squirrel has thin fold of skin
along each side of his body, be-
tween his front and hind legs.
when he leaps, with legs out
spread, the skin stretches and
makes the underside of his body
broad and flat. Like the wing of
an airplane, this surface enables
him to sail through the air.
He cannot stay aloft, like a
bird, but according to the Nation
al Wildlife Federation, he can
glide long distances between

Minute Sermon

One of the stories the children
of Israel long remembered ano
write down in their records was
of the time Moses lost his temper
and smote the rock. That was un'
like Moses, for he was so self
controlled and patient that he
earned a reputation of being the
meekest man in all the world
(Num. 12::3) Only once did ne
elbow his top" and express his
anger by striking the rock
Mum. 2O:1D That one time was
sufficient to keep him from lead
ing the people into the promised
land. (Deut. 32:51)
Oh, the tragedy in our lives
when we give way, in moment
of anger, to rash words and fool
ish deeds. We can repent, but
we cannot recall the conse
quesces. How many of us have
failed to fulfill the promise OF
God. (Jas. 1927 In the strain OF
life the only wise way is that
expressed in the words of the
little song:
That is the only way.
That is the way to win the day,
To just keep sweet"
The Psalmist thanked God that
serving Him had helped him con-
troll himself: 'Thy gentleness
hath made me great" Cps. 1880

Federal workers have no jobless
benefits and in past years the cash

commission, Frances Perkins, does
not favor having the commission
take the Initiative on the leave
cut issue, preferring that Congress
take the lead. The Budget Bu-

Federal workers leave on a gradu-
ated system based on length of

From all indications, the ad-

Greek MarshaI's Exit
Causes u. 5. Concern
BY the Associotsd Press


ATHENS, Greece, June T.
American Ambassador John e.
Peurifoy told Premier Sophocles
Venizelos today that the United
States is concerned over the resig-
nation of Field Marshal Alexander
Papagos as chief of the Greek
armed forces.
Marshal Papagos. who led the
successful fight against Com
munist guerrillas in Greece, re-
signed this week, giving bad health
as the reason. However, informed
sources said the real reason was a
months-old difference with King
Paul I and palace officials. who
felt he was trying to extend his
authority to nominations to the
kings military household.
The field marshal was reported
today to be unwilling even to con-
slider resuming his command eek
cept on his own terms. When
Marshal Papagos told the king he
was resigning, he did not leave any
sort Of opening for the palace to
work out compromise.
Mr.. Peurifoy also conferred with
the king tonight but refused to
comment on their conversation.
Their talks presumably included
the lack of a basis for compromise.
A high American source said
United States military leaders have
unlimited confidence in Marshal
Papagos and feel that all United
States military aid to Greece would
be fully exploited by him.

The Army says nearly one-third
of the 100000 Chinese and Korean
Communist soldiers who have been
taken prisoner were persuaded to
surrender by psychological war
fare.
Encouraged by the results OBJ
tanned with conventional psyche
logical warfare, the Army is con-
sidering seriously some new meth
DDS including the "use Of guided
missiles equipped with broadcast
ing or loudspeaker equipment to
circle over enemy troops" said
Brig. Gen. Robert A. Mcclure,
chief of the Army's psychological
warfare, called PW for short.
Gen. Mcclure mentioned, too,
the possible use of remote-co
trolled planes with broadcasting
equipment and carrying leaflets
which could be dropped.
The advantage of the missile
or pilotless plane with loudspeaker
equipment, Gen. Mcclure ex-
planned. is that they could spread
information and propaganda
which no edict can keep from
reaching soldiers or civilians. ;"
The Communist leaders have is
sued DEGREES threatening severe
penalties, including death, to any
soldier found with one of the
United Nations psychological leaf
lets or surrender passes" in his
possession.
Nevertheless the surrender
passes have been used by many of
the thousands of Communist
troops who have come into Allied
lines and. according to Gen. Nc
Clure. prisoners say that "thou-
sands of Communists have Sc
creted surrender passes awaiting
the opportunity to throw down
their arms"
The PW program "has over
come a conviction held by most
Communist troops earlier in the
campaign that prisoners would
be mistreated or killed by United
Nations captors
More than 400 million leaflets
have been spread throughout Ko-
rea by a variety Of means.
Gen. Mcclure commented in
connection with prisoner inter-
rogations that most Chinese
Communist soldiers in Korea are
surprised to find they are 'volun-
teers' in Korea" Then he added !:
THE average Chinese Commu-
mist soldier feels trapped. In many
cases he was formerly a member
