YEAR-ROUND BUSINESS

Asked to explain the Democratic sweep
in the last election, Vice President Nixon
made fortnight answer: "Our opponents
deserve the victory they have won because
of their hard work and their excellent or
ganization.
1.-The great lesson of this election for
both Democrats and Republicans is that in
these days campaigning is year-round
business ;"
Certainly all students Of politics, what
ever their partisan affiliation, will agree with
this And the lesson Mr.. Nixon emphasizes
can be applied to related areas.
AS an example, many business leaders
have lately pointed to the need for greater
participation by business people in politics.
They say that there is need for matching
force" to counterbalance the aggressive po-
iitisa work of those fighting them.
This is all to the good and it should be
done-all elements in this country have the
obligation as well as the right to go down the
line for their beliefs. But if business people
or any other group, think that the job car
be done on sporadic basis, few weeks OF
a few months before an election, they are
going to be in fe7 rude awakening. Sue
cessful campmgning-wheth for candi-
date, law, a principle, an idea, or anything
else-is neyer-ending, and it begins right

AMBITIOUS ALASKA

Alaskans get pretty tired of having to
explain to the rest of the nation that they
do not all live in dreary frozen wasteland.
Now that their territory has become state,
and there is new surge of interest in learn
ing about Alaska, they will find themselves
encOuntering less and less ignorance, and
more understanding, of their northern land.
One of the early champions of Alaska as
a potential state was James Wickersham,
delegate to congress from 1909 TO 1917 and
again from 1881 to 1888. He introduced the
first statehood bill in 1916. Wickersham,
writing in a national magazine in 1910, had
some good answers for the people who were
saying then that Alaska wasn't ready to be
a state. He wrote
SIN 1850, when California was admitted
into the Union, she had no lines of railway,
telegraph, trades or business connecting her
with the other states, and was thought to be
only valuable for placer gold. Her agricul-
ture and trade, her railroads and present
grandeur, have all grown since her admis-
sion.
alaska is a greater country and richer
in all of its natural resources than Califor-
MIA was in 1850. Alaska has more gold than
California and Colorado; more copper than
Montana and Arizona; more coal than Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Ohio; more fish
than all other American waters combined"
Alaska has come long way since 1910,
of course But now, nearly so years after
that bold statement, Alaskans will have the
chance they have wanted to show that Alas
ka, too, can develop more grandeur, more
trade, more economic solidity.

ONE WONDERS

A great many people, from President Els
enhower on down, have said that this will
be a big-spending Congress-substantia
bigger, even, than its immediate predecess-
ors. That view is based on the fact that
numbers of successful candidates for Con-
gress, Governorships, and state legislatures
have "big government" PHILOSOPHERS, and ad-
vocate enlarged programs of public works,
welfare, and so on.
The view, therefore, is understandable.
Yet, one wonders.
The operative phrase here is general
principle" The voters, for the most part,
approved big-spending policies of a general
and non-Specifc nature. Yet in state after
state those same viters decisivey voted down
specific ballot measures, carrying definite
price-tags which would have made govern
ment bigger and swollen budgets and taxes
In sum, the voters seem to like the idea
of an ever-increasing flow of mamma from
the seats of government. But when it comes
down to cases, they don't want to sign the
checks.
This attitude can't go On forever. The
American people will have to decide not only
what they would like 10 have, but what
they're willing to pay for.

SOCIAL SECURITY
By ANNA X. RANKIN,
Field Representative

We, in the Norfolk District So
cial Security Office, have had
many inquiries about the recent
changes in the Social Security Act.
But, in spite of the increase in in
quiries, it seems that not everyone
who should know about the new
law actually does.
For example, there are many
aged men and women who have
survived child who was support
ing them. Until now they could
not become entitled to benefits be-
cause the son or daughter was
survived by spouse or child. I'm
der the new amendments 70 the
law, aged parents, who We're re-
ceiving at least one-half support
from deceased son or daughter
can get payments beginning with
the month of September 1858 if
they make application at their So
cial security office. Some had al
ready applied before this change
was made. 1t will be necessary for
them to file another claim.
Many disabled workers, some of
whom have had their claims disal-
lowed, may now find that the lib
eralization of the disability pro-
visions are to their advantage.
Disabled workers who have worked
any five of the ten years before
becoming disabled will now meet
the work requirements necessary
to make them eligible for the disa-
bility freeze or for disability bene-
fits if they have reached age SO.
1t is no longer required that dis
abled person also have worked at
least half of the three years before
his disability began.
Disabled sons and daughters of
retired, disabled, or deceased work
ers may now get benefits without
having to show that they were get
ting one-half of their support from
their parent. These children are
now age Is or over but have been
disabled since before age 10.
Also. workers with ng-standing
disabilities may benefit from the
new law which extends from June
30, 1858 to June 80, 1861, the peri
cd in which they can apply to
have their social security records
frozen as of the time they first met
the disability requirements.
Applications for benefits or for
the disability freeze may be made
at your Social Security Office, 22O
W. Brambleton Ave, Norfolk 10,
Virginia.

EARLY ACTION is
ADVISED THOSE
SEEKING LOANS

| Farmers who intend to obtain a
price support loan through the
ASC county office should not wait
until the final date to make appli-
cation for the loan. The final date
for obtaining price support loans
on all 1868 grain crops except corn
is January 81, 1869, says ]. c. Will
liams, Jr., the office manager in
Hyde County.
The final date for obtaining price
support loans on 1858 crop corn is
February %. The necessary docu-
ments must be completed and in the
county ASC office not later than
the deadline date. These docu-
ments include the producers note
and loan agreement and the Com
modify Chattel Mortgage for farm
storage loans, and the Purchase
Agreement for Purchase Agree
ments.
Although loan applications may
be accepted until the deadline,
there might be some reason why
the necessary documents could not
be completed Immediately. The en-
tire transaction must be completed
by the deadline in order for a
farmer to be eligible for a loan. In
case of farm storage loans, it
sometimes takes up to two weeks
to complete all transactions in
volved. This is due to the fact
that representative of the ASC
County office is required to visit
the farm to make an inspection and
take sample. This sample must
be sent to the State Laboratory
for grading and the grade certifi-
cate returned to the local ASC Of
! flee before the loan documents can
be completed.
Price support loans on grains
bear interest at 3a percent per an
mum from the date of disbursez
ment. Interested farmers should
visit the ASC office for support
rates on their commodity and other
information regarding the availa-
bility of loans or purchase agree
,ments.
1858 Assistance
The ASC office assisted Is
farmers through loans N pur-
chasing bins for storing grain pro-
duced in 1858 and to be produced
in future years. Equipment to dry
grain was also included in these
loans, Mr.. Williams adds.
Storage will be needed this sum-
mer for small grain. Now is the
time to begin planning for storage.
Loans are still available to eligible
farmers for storage and drying
equipment.
Another reason storage may be
needed in 1859 is the fact that
there are no corn allotrents for
1859. Corn production could be
above normal this year and stor-
age on the farm could be profitable.
All corn grown on farms in 1859 is
eligible for price support. The sup
port rate has not been announced
for 1859 but will probably be above
the 1858 non compliance rate.
Interested farmers should con-
tact the ASC office, for information
/ on storage equipment loans.

COURT RULING NAY
MEAN TWO SCHOOLS
CONTINUE IN HYDE
Supreme, Court Says County
Cannot Build Central School
Before Title Acquired

RALEIGH, Jan. Is - An order
blocking construction of Hyde
County's consolidated high school
must stay in effect until the Hyde
school board obtains title in fee
simple to the entire school site, the
State Supreme Court said yester-
day.
The high court overruled Judge
Malcolm C. Paul,s decision last
Nov. 81 dissolving previous order
hating the construction.
Associate Justice William H.
Bobbitt, who wrote the decision,
pointed out that the appeal "pre-
sents no question as to whether
Judge Moore's order was erroneous
in any respect"
Judge Clifton L. Moore had
signed the restraining order last
April, holding that the construction
could not proceed until the Hyde
Board of Education obtained title
in fee simple to the entire 1915
acre school site.
Judge Paul was without Judicial
power to modify or reverse the
findings of fact or conclusions of
law made by Judge Moore,
Justice Bobbitt said. at is we'll
settled that findings and decisions
of one superior court Judge are
not subject to review by another
superior court judge"
Construction Halted.
Construction had begun on 3.n4
acres of the site to which the board
held title. 1t launched condemns
ton proceedings to obtain the rest,
La dissolving the order, Judge
Paul ruled that school authorities
had Substantially or completely
complied with its terms of obtain
ing the right to possession through
the condemnation proceedings.
This right was obtained when the
proceedings reached the point
where the school board put up the
$5,218 appraised value on the re-
naming 12.11 acres.
Owners of the land have re-
fused this amount and the pro-
ceedings are still pending in Hyde
Superior Court.
Judge Bobbitt wrote that there
is nothing in the record to indicate
that Judge Moore intended for his
order to be dissolved after the
Hyde board obtained "a mere
right of possession" to the rest OF
the site.
"The title of the landowner is
not Invested unless and until the
condemnor obtains a final judg-
ment in his favor and pays to the
landowner the amount of the dam
ages fixed by such final Judgment
the decision stated.
In vacating Judge Paul's order
the court said the restraining order
continues in full force and effect
Victory For Opponents
The decision was victory fo1
opponents of the consolidated
school, who will gain control of the
Hyde school board sometime III the
spring when the 1859 Legislature
appoints new school boards.
The appeal was made by Ear
Topping, who was elected to one o1
the hoard seats. The sllit named thf
