Mr.. Comfy Garfield Greer, first Negro
Extension Worker in this section of Vir-
glnla, retired from active service as County
farm Agent on March 31st. He had held the
post OF local county agent of Albemarle
county for the past thirty-five years.
Mr. Greer is native of Crumpler, N. c..
and the eldest of five children of the late
Lavinia and Moses Greer His early educa-
ton was in the public school of Ashe Coun-
ty, North Carolina where his father was en-
gagged In farming. Young Greer was later
graduated from the Agriculture Depart
ment OF Virginia Normal and Industrial In
stitute, now Virginia State College. The late
Mr.. George w. Owens was then head of the
department. Further study was at Hampton
Institute, and South Carolina State College
In 1913, Mr.. Greer married Miss Mary
Lou Carr, the eldest daughter of the late
TeXle Hawkins and Hugh Carr of the Union

alter, he was employed as Farm Agent
since which time he has worked under the
following State Agents Messrs Walter
Young, j. L. Charity, T. B. Patterson. and
Ross Newsome.
Since this type of work was new to all
farmers of this area, it required a great
deal OF patience, courage, faith and a real
love for the work as well as vision to nut
over the program. Not only was the work
new, but Mr. Greer was a stranger in the
county also. But with his characteristic con-
servatlsm and rugged honesty, and will to
succeed, ne soon won the respect of all with
whom ne came in contact. Thus, it can truly
be said of him that he was pioneer in the

On no other day do people
feel so glad to be living and
able TO enjoy the warmth of
the Merry Christmases" that
ring through the air.
No wonder the not too dis
corning person may see too
much "commercialism in
Christmas. We in America
are 160 million strong. We re-
quire much merchandise for
our gifts Of love to families
and friends. If the stores fur
nish those needs is that not
proper and is it not their func-
ton.
We send millions Of Christ
mas packages of food, clothing
and toys to the unfortunate of
other lands. That activity
alone requires financing, pur-
chasing, wrapping, shipping,
all Of which is a part of COM
merce.
Those Of us who go home to
see the folks for Christmas will
either motor, go by bus, rail
road or plane. II takes oil, gas,
employees to get us home for
Christmas and that's part of
commerce. Surely, no one
would begrudgc the money we
spend TO see our loved ones
on Christmas no matter where
they may dwell.
Life in a modern world is so
complex that unless we think
carefully we may fall into the
habit OF caviling at even the
great celebration of Christmas
MS too commercial. Our modern
society has grown and pros
pered because of industry and
commerce. The free enterprise
system from which our pros
perity has come is based on
wise commerce.
As n matter of fact our
American Christmases would
not be what they are ii there
was no commerce,
Because of the so-called
commcrcialization of the festi'
val we may do our religious de.
votionals in more beautiful
temples devoted to the Son OF
Man. The sinews of American
labor, industry and commerce
together have raised thousands
of churches, supporting them
well to the honor the Christian
Saviour. II this be CONNER,
cialization let us please have
more of il.

Recently the Manchester Guar
dian reported that the arms
traffic in West Africa Is caus-
ing some anxiety. Although it
has been going on for couple Of
years, officials in British and
French West Africa now seem to
realize the implications Of the
proportions to which it has grown.
One Of the biggest arms scand-
ais for many years in the Gold
Coast is now being investigated.
In the past theft Of arms and am
munition in the Gold Coast was
treated with secrecy by the Gov
eminent.
The arms traffic seems to be
based in Liberia. Business men in
Liberia state that the sale Of arms
is one Of their most profitable en-
disappearing into French terri
TOTES. One Liberian merchant In
Cape Palmas made a profit of
over $4,000 on one shipment. He
is now building a number Of large
houses from his trading profits.
What is being done with the
arms? They are mostly used for
hunting. But the danger that a
large quantity of arms In any
Colonial territory can spell dam
ger In case of uprising has never
been minimized by the Colonial
Powers. The British consequently
are strict. 1t Is common know
ledge that the Communists are
busy In West Africa and that
they operate mostly from French
West African bases.
AS usual our newspapers pass
the buck to others. l reported
many years ago the presence of
arms in various parts of Africa. I
have written many times recently
that there are more arms In Afri-
ca that the governments realize.
Having lived on borders during
wars and uprisings, know some
thing about arms dealing. And I
know how easy 1t is to get arms
from government stores, even the
British.
AS the people Of the United
States are paying big bills for
colonial development and have
inve.. ed vast sums in colonial
enterprises one would imagine the
U. s. Government would seek in
formation on the arms traffic.
Nigeria's Columbite Expansion
