Babson Advises Housewives To Buy Now

BABSON PARK, MASS, Feb.
9-For forth years l have been
comparing monthly retail prices
for household goods. With the
exception of the war years, these
retail prices have always been
lowest early in the month of
February.
Reducing Inventories
The efficient merchant dis
likes to carry any merchandise
more than a year. The McCrory
Corporation, which has over 400
retail stores in about the same
number of cities covering close
to forty states, marks every
thing down to zero which has not
sold during the year.
Bankers do not like to loan on
inventories which are over a
year old. They fear that changes
in styles or colors, or some other
price factor, may be very seri-
Gus. All of this means that wise
merchants have truly mark
down" sales in the early part of
each year.
Beware of Some MarkdOwns
Markdowns are advertised
directly after Christmas. but
often do not begin until January
The goods chiefly pressed for
sale are white goods" which
include sheets, pillow cases,
blankets, Grapes. spreads, and
even rugs. Some of the stores
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1961-02-14

will have big markdowns of
dresses and lingerie for misses
and grownups; also of boys
sports jackets and sweaters,
which are usually overstocked.
Nylon stockings are being Of
fered at ridiculous prices. But be
sure to save the labels until
after your goods are washed.
Some years housewives can
get real bargains in January;
but usually women are short of
cash so soon after Christmas an
do not buy too much at that time.
In the meantime. every mer-
chant is carefully watching his
January sales; if these are not
good, he puts on real mark
downs in bruary Hence,
we are now in the month
when careful housewives will
stock up on household needs.
Buying on Credit
was brought up to pay cash
and my family continues the
habit. But the housewife maybe
justified in asking for credit to
buy at these real February
nlarkdowns. 1t is much better to
get this credit from the store at
which you trade than to borrow
at high rate of interest from
some Finance" or Small
Loan" company. Tell the stores
credit manager that you want to
take advantage of the February

More Foreign Aid

less hesitant to go along with increased
OUTLAWS.
If the program tends to more military
aid and grants, there is likely to be
major opposition.
The lesson which all should have been
learned by now - in the United States
is that we cannot buy friends. Nor
are we obligated to make good losses
and grief caused by every hurricane or
earthquake all over the world, generous
as our impulses might be at any parti-
cular moment.
Loans and technical assistance =
where it is wanted and appreciated -
will enable other peoples to help them
selves. This we must concentrate on,
for we cannot play Santa Claus to the
world - with 300-billion dollar ma
tional debt And it may be close vote
in Congress on any expanded aid pro-
gram that is not carefully designed to
avoid pitfalls Of past aid programs.
The one solid lesson Of the last fiji
teen years is that L. S. dollars do not
buy friendly countries and most mem
bers of the Senator and House now real
ize the truth in this statement.

Education For All
Our Children

Editor Of Herald
1 would like to talk about just
what our problem is in Prince
Edward county and try to make
our thinking clear on just what
all the fuss is about.
The first thing that happened
here was the strike for new
school by the colored children in
the county's r. r. Morton High
school. Now, we needed this new
school and as a result of the
strike we got the million dollar
R. r. Motion High School located
south of town about a mile from
my house. l thought out people
would be happy with the success
of getting this beautiful new
school which put our county in
debt almost a million dollars.
But, then the money-h hungry,
poWer-hungry crowd brought in
the NAACP., sued for integra-
ton and We lost all of the public
schools. 1t seems that most of
the folks in the county felt that
by going into debt to build the
new R. R. Notion High School
they had been about as far as
they were going and that they
were not going to integrate the
schools.
A majority Of the people GER
tainly feels this way. because al
most 5000 voters in the county
signed a petition to the Board of
Supervisors asking that the chill
dren of the county be educated in
some other way if the court
forced Indignation. This is ex-
actly what the Board of Super
visors did. They made arrange
ments for all of the childrer
colored and white to get enough
money from the county and stat
to go to school. The white peopl
set up their schools under wha
they call the Prince Edward
School Foundation and their chill
dren haven't missed a day from
school.
They set up another system to
help educate the colored chill.
dren. This was called the South
side S c h ols, Inc. Southsid
Schools sent out applicatio.
blanks to the parents of every
colored child in the county ask
ing them to enroll their children
in schools. Only one child was
registered. The N.A.A.C.P. went
TO work to break this up and
they did break it up. No colored
children went to school in the
1880 school year because the
N .A.A.C.P. would not let them.
This year Southside Schools of
fered to set up schools for the
colored children again. They call
ed a meeting of white ard col
ored citizens. l was at the meet
ing. Well, over half of the col
ored people there wanted not to
to to SOuthSide Schools for this
year because the N.A.A.C.P. has
told them not to. l know because
I was there. They voted our chill
dren out of school for the second
year.
The N.A.A.C.P. has got to keep
a fuss going = as soon as any
thing is settled they will be out
of business ard the preachers
and the lawyers will stop getting
the big money and lose their
