1 am not going to participate in
partisan politics and controversies;
I am going to discuss a subject
which concerns all parties of the
present and the future, and that
is, philippine Population Problems
and National Economic Planning"
I wish to pause for a moment
and state with all the emphasis at
my command that in terms of
millennia the survival of a nation
rests more upon it's population
power than upon its military forces.
The ancient Egyptians and the Ro-
mans, who in their heyday, sub
jugated everybody within striking
distance, were later crushed and
replaced by waves of invading
hordes. The armies of India and
China were frequently defeated, but
their population power remained in
tact, virile and uncomfortable by
famine, pestilence, floods and wars.
After the second World War.
defeated but populous nations like
Germany and Japan were courted
by both sides, more presistently
than victorious but smaller and
weaker nations like the Philippines
and Holland.
China, which for centuries was an
underdog in a political football
emerged from the last World War
more powerful than Britannia who
used to rule the waves.
Populous India and Indonesia
after centuries of western domin-
alton, finally asserted and secured
their sovereign rights.
We can not afford to lose siqht
OF the fact that we are within the
orbit of a population aggregate Of
over a billion people, more than
half the human race. Next door
neIghbors to US are Japan with
90 million; Indonesia with 80 million
and China with 6o2 million. Within
radius of two thousand mIIes
which is about the distance be-
tween Seattle and San DIEGO. ara
India and Pakistan, which TEEN
with their 43o million people. e
1t is not a good policy to leave
unoccupied for generations rich
virgin lands that are a standing
invitation to invasion.
If we have to make a choice
between leaving a treasure house
indefinitely empty to run the risk
OF being robbed by bandits at their
opportune time, and ushering \
multitude in an orderly fashion. and
share with them and defend the
treasures with us on our own terms
and according to our laws. we
should prefer the latter.
The adoption of a dynamic and
an encompassing population policy

GOLF COURSE

! The first joint project ever under
taken by Loris and Tabor City, the
building of nine hole golf course,
has moved along with some degree
of success. But the public still hasn't
fully grasped the need for completion
of the project.
Directors of this corporation know
that it will take at least $4,000 to
build a course that will be entertain
ing and interesting for those who
wish to play. Up until now, about
$4,000 has been raised. There's still
a right good distance to go and if
the facilities are to become reality,
the folks of Tabor City, in particular,
are going to have to get busy.
Loris has done surprisingly we'll
and, so far, has sold over $4,000
worth of stock while Tabor City has
sold about $4,000. The movement was
started in Tabor City and Loris Joined
in upon request of interested local
citizens.
Industry almost always is interest
ed in recreation facilities when they
consider settling in community.
That's one of the reasons why a lot
of local persons who have never play
ed golf, and don't expect to, have
bought stock in the golf course.
These facilities will provide mex
pensive recreation for both men and
women, young and old. 1t therefore
becomes apparent to us that the pur-
chase Of share of stock in this goif
course is contribution for the bet
terment of mankind in these COM
munitieS.
The local finance committee u.cIn-
berS have contacted a lot of people.
Many have bought stock, many have
made promises and some have turned
down the opportunity to participate.
At least 80 more local persons anus.

future. It's our hope that some en-
thuSiaSm will be stirred up soon and
that work can get underway on the

WOMAN OF YEAR

The Home Demonstration clubs OF
Columbus county have selected Mrs
ESsie Powell, OF the Bethel club, "a,
its Nv oman of the Year" From the
outstanding contributions that Mrs.
Powell has made to her home, church,
school and community, it is apparent
that she is deserving of the recogni-
ton.
By the same token, it is imperative
that the other IA women nominated
for the honor get some recognition
also. Everyone OF the ladies who were
selected by their individual clubs for
competition in the countrywide COM
petition, are SO remarkably outStand-
ing that to select one over the rest is
difficult
The primary thought perhaps that
should come from the selection of
Columbus County Woman of the
Year is the fact that we are blessed
with a great number of fine ladies
who go about improving homes,
churches, schools and communities in
such totally unselfish manners.
We can help but wonder Just
what kind of communities we would
have without the active civic leaders
that nome demonstration clubs pro-
vide all over Columbus. Certainly
they are doing great deal toward
making Columbus a better place to
live and a better place in which to
bring up families.
Not only were the 10 nominees for
the county honor outstanding, there
are dozens of other ordinary, unrec-
ognized home demonstration club
women who are playing a vital part

PRINCIPLE IMPORTANT

With the electin over, we guess
We can make a national observation
without some one accusing us of being
political.
That observation has to do with
what President Eisenhower said in
his TV address the night following
the British and French armed entry
into the Israeli and Egyptian war.
This might not be the exact text
but in essence Eisenhower said,
When you believe in a principle of
peace, you have to vote for that prin-
ciple whether it affects your friends
or your enemies" That is unpreju-
diced thinking in our opinion.
With only two great powers in the
world today, Russia and the United
States, it becomes apparent that no
world war can worry the world I'M
less one or the other or both gets
into the armed conflict. The rest of
the nations of the world are so de-
pendent upon these powers that
without their support, no real war
can last long. There can be no ex-
tended skirmiShes but war materials
and supplies are not available among
the other nations to fight war of
worldwide consequences.

TALK
BY AL HARRISON

Pm not who loves to dwell on statistics Yet,
when it concerns me statistics often tell story.
The one told in Sleeping Tar Heels, handbook
written by Roma S. Cheek of Duke Universty's de-
partment of political science will make many Tar
being Tar Heel But we tend to crow without basis
Here of the disturbing facts pointed
out by the Duke University professor:
Q) In 1854, North Carolina ranked 44th in bank
deposits which many people consider an important
indicator of economic well-being.
(2) In 1854, North Carolina ranked 47th among
states in the percentage of its college age population
which actually attends college.
(3) The average Tar Heel" has less than eight
years of schooling, making North Carolina 44th
among the states in this Also, N C. ranks 43rd
among the states in percentage Of the population
with five years or less schooling having gil per
cent of its population 25 years and older in this
category.
(4) N. C. is 46th among the states in the large
number of pupils per teacher in the classroom.
(5) North Carolina is 45th in percentage of its
school age children actually in school; and eight
from the bottom in the average value of school
property.
CO. In the latest year for which comparable fig
person for its public schools and $37.41 per person
for alcoholic beverages.
CD North Carolina State Board of Health statistics
indicate that year in and year out about one out
of every ~ born in North Carolina is born out of
wedlock.
(s) One-fourth of North Cardinals gainfully
poyed citizens engaged in farming while the farm
income is less than one-half of what it is for the
average farmer across the nation. Farm income in
N c. continues to drop and during 1855, the rate of
decline in n. c. greater than for the rest OF the
country.
co. North Carolina ranks the lowest of all the
AZ states in its public welfare expenditures.
G0) In the of crime, n. C.. is the highest y
all the 48 states in aggravated assault crimes Also
n. c. crimes of murder and non-negligent mansaugh
229 per cent higher than for the nation as
a whole.
Cd n. c. ranks 4Sth in the amount of state and
local funds spent per child under 81 for services TO
crippled children.

pace. I'm reading pages per week in the hand

PROGRESS BUT
STILL DEATH

In 1880, about the time the auto
mobile age really began to roll, one
third of our traffic accident fatalities
were pedestrians.
And, in % years pedestrian deaths
have dropped only slightly, to about
2O-25 per cent as Il matter of fact.
That would suggest we are making
some progress in pedestrian protec-
ton, as undoubtedly we are. Cease
less education, better street lighting,
walk-wait traffic lights - these are
some of the things that have brought
Improvement. Gains have been made
despite the fact that the proportion
OF drivers in our total population is
much greater than it was % years
ago.
Despite such favorable influences,
23S pedestrians died on Tar Heel
streets and highways last year. Pro-
gress is slow and painful - 10 the
pedestrian often very painful.
National Safety Council figures

are most often persons who have
never drive Il car, and consequently
nave less understanding OF distance,
speed, lighting, stopping ability -
the limitations of the man behind the
wheel.
We need 20 push every physical
protection for the pedestrian-light-
ing, street and signal engineering,
oEerpasses and tunnels. We need firm
ana lar enforcement of regulations
applying to both motorists and those
on loot.
But most of ali we need to teach
Doth the common sense of sharing
the eartn and the paths man has built
across it. The horn-honking and fist
shaking conflict one observes on al
most any street corner is Senseless-
The motorist has great obligation

SOOerng realization that his steel ar
NOR viii always win over yielding
flesh.
The pedestrian must surrender
some of his heritage of walking where
and as he chooses.
The man on foot and the man on
wheels must learn to live together in
spirit of courtesy and fair play.

CAN'T MAKE UP THEIR MINDS

1t seems the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad could
lend itself the role of civic cooperation without
much difficulty pretended.
The change of heart concerning movement of the
guard rail in the business district leaves little to shout
about. n
According to a local official, the railroad brass
expressed the opinion that movement of the guard
rail closer to the tracks would create safety hazard
suggest railroad officials take another look. The
guard rail the south end is close to the rails
the distance proposed for the north end If moving
the north end closer constitutes a hazard, hes
clearly existed the south end for quite time
Personally, it would leave a better taste in the
mouths of local citizens if the Coast Line showed
little civic spirit.
