Merchants Begin
Local Farm Tour

With the opening of the auc-
tIoncer'S chant only u days a
way, there was an air of antici-
Ipatcd boom in Tabor City this
week as farmers continued tc
harvest what promises to be one
of the best crops in history in
this area.
With price supports set at re-
cord highs and with apparent
excellent quality of tobacco COM
ing off the stalk rapidly. this
community took on q ne
pearanceS of economic Satisfac-
ton.
Local merchants have organ
lied into teams of two as they
did a year ago and have design

unity as areas in which all the
people should be invited 10 sell
tobacco and to trade in Tabor
Cry.
With directors of the Merch-
ANTS Association responsible for
each segment of the area that
has been marked off on a huge
map in the office of the erecu-
tive secretary Tally Eddings. the
teams of goodwill seekers will
set out this week. Farmers and
their families over a wide area
will be contacted by the visiting
businessmen from Tabor City
who will offer nothing for sale
but simply invite folks to trade
and TO sell in Tabor City.
This widespread tour by teams
of merchants last year was said
TO have been one of the most
successful promotions ever spOn-
Sored by the association.
And while merchants were do
ing their bit TO promote Tabor
City and to invite farmers, the
two tobacco warehouse firms
here were equally busy.
The r. G. Coleman Company.

houScmen and businessmen a.
like are optimistic over the pos
sibility of making it two years
in row in 1858. The excellent
quality of tobacco being grown
in the area makes that a distinct
possibility. tobacco authorities
say.

Records Speedup
Social Security

Persons who apply for social
security retirement benefits can
help speed up the payment of
these benefits if they bring GER
tain records with them when
they file application, according
TO Ernest F. Fitzpatrick, Manag-
er, of the Wilmington, N. c. Of
flee, which serves New Hanover
Bladen, Brunswick, Columbus
Duplin, and Fender Counties.
The applicant should, of course,
nave his social security card
with him, but, in addition, the
card of any other member of the
family for whom claim will be
filed.
Information about employ
ment or self-employment in the
last IL months is always necess-
airy. Considerable time can be
saved in completing the claim if
the applicant can furnish q
statement of his earnings In the
present year and, if employed, a
copy of his W. for last year. II
Self-employed, he should persent
copy of his last tax return and
evidence of payment of the soci-
al security tax, in the form of
a cancelled check or money ord
'er receipt.
Because it may take some APP
plicants several weeks to obtain
proof of age, they should begin
action on this well in advance,
Mr.. Fitzpatrick said. Generally,
the rule here is that the older the
record, the better the proof. An
original record made at or soon
after the time of birth, prefer
ably a public record, is best of
all. Where that cannont be OBJ
tanned, an old, unaltered family
Bible record written in ink may
be satisfactory. Other records
which can be considered are an
old census record, a World War
L draft record (the social Secur-
ity representative can give in
formation about tanning
these, a marriage or voting re-
cord or an insurance policy. Any
one of these records, especially
N 1t is more than ten or fifteen
years old, may be sufficient, but
sometimes a conflict in evidence
makes it necessary to furnish
two or more of these proofs.
The social security office is
glad, Mr.. Fitzpatrick said, To-
give specific help and informa-
ton where it is needed in this
matter of proving age as well as
IN other aspects of establishing
.entitlcmCnt to benefits, and be
cause we are interested in pay
ng claims promptly" he said.
we urge future applicants to
give some time and thoughts To-
planning ahead to present the
necessary proofs"
Mr.. Fitzpatrick also said he
would like to remind those peo-
pie coming TO his office of the
new address. II is no longer I'M
the Custom House but is now at
its new location on Ia South
10th Street.

Pope Names
Cardinal

VATICAN CITY - NC)- In
the conclave, following his
election, His Holiness Pope
John XIII placed his red cardi-
nails zucchetto skull cap) on
the head of Msgr. Alberto di
Jorio, secretary of the conclave,
according to reports following
the election announcement.
This is in keeping with old
custom and indicates that the
recipient is the first cardinal
to be named by the new Pontiff,
and that he will be elevated at a
forthcoming consistory.
After his election and accept
ance, the new Pope receives the
white zucchetto from the hands
of the secretary of the con-
clave. In times past, the new
Pontiff has often placed his own
red zucchetto on the head of
the secretary before taking the
white skull cap for himself.
MSgr. di Jorio was born in
Rome on July ID, 1888, and was
ordained in 1908. He was elect
ed regent of the Secretariate of
the College of Cardinals 10
years ago, and was named Sec
rotary of the secretariat just
prior to the conclave.

World Rejoices At Pope Johns Election

VATICAN CITY, OCT. 28-"We have Pope,
His Eminence the Most Reverend Lord Cardinal
Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, who has taken the name
of John XIII"
With these words was announced to the waiting
throngs in st. Peters Square and to the world the
name of the latest successor to st. Peter, the Vicar
of Christ on earth.
His Eminence Nicola Cardinal Canal, Senior
Cardinal Deacon, made the announcement.
The intense drama Of the past several weeks
was focused on one momeni-that few seconds pause
between the words I'VE have a Pope" and the pro-
noUncing Of his name. All the anxiety of watching
over a dying Pope, the following sense Of loss, the
preparations, the anticipation of the announcement
Of his successor were focused there. And, when the
name was pronounced, another awed moment Of
silence followed before the more than 0 $1,000 souls
that packed St. Peters Square burst info their deaf
ening first acclaim of the man, the priest, the Bishop
Of Rome, the Sovereign Pontiff Of the Catholic world
who would in the future bind and loose for them
on earth as in heaven. A new era was begun.

After both the morning and afternoon sessions

and Its announcers said a pope had been chosen.
The smoke soon turned Enthusiastically black, and the

Study Issues,
Then VOTE!!

Next Tuesday an estimated 3,450, 600 Ohioans
will join millions of other Americans in exercising
their right to vote.
We Catholics know we have a moral obligation
as well as a right to vote. This is especially true
when there are so many vital issues placed before
the electorate as is the case this year. Surely, none
of us will fail to do his DUTY in this important mat
ter.
Know your candidates and the issues on the
ballot. Ask your relatives and friends to exercise
their right to vote. Pray that the best interests of
our state and local governments may be served by
the results of this election.
Examine your conscience carefully and vote ac-
cording to its dictates. Certain exaggerations are to
be expected in any campaign, but it is distressing to
find such confusion and controversy, transformation
and mlSlnterpretation, and evidences of downright
viciousnesS manifested in the current issues, especial
ly Issue No. 2 on the Ohio ballot.
We should remember that Issue No. / which
deals with permitting metropolitan county govern
ment is important. The various levies for child well
fare and education also demand our attention.
AS for Issue No. 2, SO much has been written
and spoken it would be SuperfluouS to review it
here. The Bishops of Ohio expressed the view last
Spring that passage of that issue now would not
solve the problems confronting labor, and the recent
DCCW Convention incorporated it into a resolution.
Other, including some Catholic priests, have writ
ten in favor of the amendment.
All of us should set aside emotionalism and
any kind of class feeling and honestly vote for what
will benefit the working man.
Is he best served by the abolition Of union
security provisions whereby management can
hire and, fire as it pleaSeS and no man need belong
to a union unless he wishes it? Or should state regu-
lation of contract negotiations be avoided and should
labor and management continue to work. toward their
goal under mutually agreed upon conditions? And
even if the common good requires compulsory
union membership?
In the words of Plus XII, we should ask our
selves what will best promote: "the union and soil
darity of men in the whole OF economic life"

For three days the world had awaited the de-

fifty-three members Of the College had entered the
conclave enclosure in the Vatican on Saturday after

chimney pipe above the SiStine Chapel at 1853 in
formed the crowds waiting in st. Peters Square
that the voting had been inconclusive.
Four times that day the ballots we're cast, twice
in the morning and twice in the afternoon. Although
all the votes were inconclusive, the ordinarily high

One of the highlights of
his career was a diplomatic
