Counts Resigns Presidency
OF Merchants Association

In a surprise move yesterday
afternoon, r. p. Counts rendered
his resignation as president of the
Tabor City. Merchants Association
TO become effective Wednesday
September Is.
In all probability, Davis Bruton,
vice-preSident, will be elevated to
the top post.
Counts, in his letter of reSigna-
ton TO the Board of Directors, Of
Tered no concrete reasons for his
action; however, he told a news
paper reporter that the utter con-
fusion in the Merchants ASsocia-
ton made it extremely difficult
to promote a project without con-
tacting each merchant individual
ly and getting their consct.
Hitting at those who criticized
his efforts to carry out the Labor
Day closing, Mr.. Counts said. Il
was not responsible for closing on
Labor Day. 1t was suggested to
me by several merchants in town
on Thursday morning that the
merchants be polled on the matter
of closing Monday Acting as pres
ident of the Merchants Associa-
ton | contacted the merchants
and the majority stated that they
desired to observe Labor Day as
IA holiday"
IF the merchants would pull
together the job as president would
not be difficult. AS il now stands,
it requires that the president be
absent from his own business too
often said the resigning presi-
dent.
Counts was elected to the presi-
dency at the annual meeting of the
Merchants Association last De-
GENDER. He succeeded S. +. Rogers
as president.
while serving as president.
Counts was responsible for many
worthy projects and promotions
among the merchants. During the
past six months, a bargain days
promotion was staged successfully
approach signs to Tabor City were
erected as part Of the Finer Caro-
lima Program but directly under
taken by the Merchants Associa-
ton, and promotion of the local
tobacco market.
Several committee meetings
have been held recently in con-
junction with the Yam Festival
scheduled for October ID, Is, and
Is. Counts said that he would be
cad to cooperate in any way with
whomcver is named to the presi-
dency.
There is a definite need for an
cxccutive-secretary 20 carry out
the program OF the Merchants AS
sociation," said Counts in offering
a suggestion as TO how the pro-
gram could be carried on success
fully.

JEWISH RESEARCHER
DEVELOPS BLOOD TEST
FOR CANCER

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. (JTA)
- A simple blood test for cancer,
developed by a California Jewish
scientist, DR.. Harry S. Penn, was
described here to the American
Association for Cancer Research.
The new test, which has been
applied experimentally in 10000
cases, represents 10 years of re-
search by DR.. Penn and a re-
search term at the University of
California at Los Angeles. The
test is described as simple and
speedy and administerable by any
trained technician. Its developers
insist that for the present, how
ever, it should be used only under
strict hospital or clinic conditions.

ALMOST SOLVENT

We have come over two-tbirds
of the way toward balancing the
budget declared President Eisen-
hover in a statement of federal in
come and OutgO for the fiscal wear
ended last June 80 The Presi-
dents report showed that his Ad-
ministratiOn had cut ten billions off
the 'irreducible" budget proposed
by the outgoing former President
Truman, and that actual spending
was 6.5 billions below the previous
fiscal year. The deficit was down
to a mere $3,029O0O,0O0 which is
about 245 millions less than the
red ink estimated last January.
These fiscal achievements mean
a great deal to the American peo-
pie, said the President. 1--WE have
made possible a program of tax
cuts totalling rs billions. We have
matted imitation Our people have
new confidence we are laying a firm
base for a healthy and expanding
economy for better national secur-
lty and for more jobs for more
people"
In fact, we are now convinced
tnat Senator Harry F. Byrd is quite
right in his contention that there
is no need to lift the present 275
billion dollar debt ceiling-as
Treasury Secretary George NJ
Humphrey insisted was necessary
year ago. Cutting spending down
to mt revenue is the Byrd formula
It seems to work as well for Uncle
Sam as for Joe DOaks.

Johnny Can't Write
Without A Pencil
AP NeMsfeafures

Most mothers give little thought
to the most basic item of school
equipment for their offspring g-the
pencil.
They may spend hours selecting
the right shirts, skirts, trousers,
sweaters and socks for that impor-
tant first day Of school, but pencils
are taken for granted.
1t might surprise many parents
to know that pencil manufacturing
did not start in the United States
until about 100 years ago. Before
that school children had to use
states and chalk, or charcoal.
Since that time the pencil man
ufGcturers have developed Is de-
grees of hardness in lead used in
the modern pencil ranging from
the fiint-like leads used by stone
cutters and engravers to the, soft
leads used by artists, cOpy-readers
and school children.
It is pointed out that although
pencils may look alike. more than
$50 kinds are now available, each
with a special use. Small, thick
pencils are made to fit the chubby
hands of children just learning to
write. Others are made to write on
slippery surfaces such as glass.
cellOphane, plastics, metal and
home freezer packages. Surgeons
use a special pencil for outlining
the operation area onehuman ana
tony, and packing plants use an
other type to write identifcations
on sides Of beef.
Children are having fun with col
ored painting pencils, made with
soluble leads, which can be used
to sketch in picture, which then
is turned into painting by use of
brush dipped in plain water.
Americans used more than 300
million pencils last year. That
means that Junior should have al
least two to start the school term.
Just to be sure he's getting his
share.
