job, and now we must clean it up"
Mr. SorenSon's firm added more
than so quality control inspectors,
whose job it is to peer over the
shoulders of workmen and make
sure every task is cleanly performed.
Extra special care is taken with
pipes. They are assembled and
formed into sections in clean
rooms" closed off from other activ-
tiles and kept free of dust by
vacuum cleaners.
Inside the rapidly forming ship
itself, the piping-ends Sealed-is
installed under tarpaulin cover.
Elsewhere, near -surgical cleanliness
is virtually impossible
In dark chambers where the only
air has to be pumped in, workmen
play a deafening symphony with
rivet guns, jack hammers and other
Shipbuilding tools. Although the
huge vessel is damned with men
working only inches apart, they
barely can hear each other speak.
On each daytime shift, there are
1000 machinistS, electricians, pipe
filters and other skilled tradeSmen

toiling in the propulsion compart-
ments only. They are, however, but
a fraction of the main work force,
the bulk of which are ShipwrightS
and welders.
When these men pour out of the
mammoth ship each afternoon,
more workers file in, to labor
through the night. With a legion
of lights ablaze, the Enterprise
brightens the sky for miles over
Virginia's Tidewater Peninsula.
Bright also is the promise the
Enterprise holds for the future, as
the centerpiece of the new nuclear
Navy.
Atomic carriers will be essential
to defense, declares Admiral Arleigh
Burke, Chief of Naval Operations,
because missiles have not, and will
not in the foreseeable future, re-
place manned aircraft in limited
wars"
And even in the event of a gen.
eral war, atomic carriers would play
an important role, the Navy points
out, because of their ability to
survive and counter-attack.

SOUTH SELLS $sS,OOO,O 900
in PULPWOOD DURING 1858

The value of pulpwood produced
in North Carolina totaled $780,
900 in 1868, according to the
Southern Pulpwood Conservation
Association, Atlanta, Ga. This
value was based on a 12-state pulp
wood production survey by the U.
S. Forest Service Experiment Sta
tionss in Asheville, N. c., and New
Orleans, La, in cooperation with
SPCA, Atlanta.
A total of 81 of North Cardinals
100 counties shared in this income.
with Buncombe, Onslow and CO.
lumbus Counties leading in this
harvest of the tree crop.
For the South as whole, pur-
chases of pulpwood totaled S4O4,-
100000, with practically all Forest
ed counties from Virginia through
Texas participating.
The survey revealed that more
than 16 percent of the total re-
gional production of pulpwood was
hardwood. In North Carolina, hard
wood usage was about 10 percent
of the total.

OBSTRUCTION OF A SORT. !"

They have distinction of sort
These farm-hands so detected;
They're most exploited, most ignored
And also least protected
o-o-o-O-O-O-o-o
Their pay is low, their hours long,
They're forced to live in novels
Far worse than any kind described
In "proletarian" novels.
o-o-o-O-O-O-o-o
They're sick at heart in body, too =
Such poverty surrounds them
Small wonder migrant workers feel
Some evil spirits hounds them.
o-o-o-O-O-O-o-
Yet corporate farms are blas-free-
And lest this sound erratic
We mean they'll exploit anyone;
They're strangely democratic.
o-o-o-O-O-O-o-
Skin color doesn't mean thing
To the profiteering farmers;
They'll grind you down, black, white or brown
From here or the Bahamas.

"Togetheness" Is their tack,
They crowd whole famihes-often two
