Lack of Confidence

COME of us, now in business, can re-
~ member the days of 1882 follow
ing the stock market crash and SUBJ
sequent events The people were
obsessed with a lack Of confidence
causing them to quit buying needed and
necessary commodities, soft goods as
we'll as durable goods At that time
prices had become unreasonably high,
because investors we're gambling on the
margin, resulting in inflationary stock
prices. The people were responsible for
the bull market in 1929 The public is
tickle. No we'll explained reason why
buying suddenly declined. The point we
make is that formerly the loss of con-
fidence was in the people - the buy
ers. There was sufficient money avail
able for investment, but the investors
realized the condition of abnormal in
flation, quit buying, which slowed bust
ness, forced foreclosures, finally lead
ing to demands for cash funds from
financial institutions Government fail
ed to instill confidence or to assure the
public. President Hoover moved eau
tiously.
With the change of administration,
President Franklin D. Roosevelt an
nounced the New Deal and in 100 DAYS
of lightning moves practically unhamp-
cred or controlled by Congress, appeal
ed to the public to restore confidence.

FOOD PROCESSING
IN NORTH CARO- LINA
GROWING INDUSTRY



RALEIGH.-Food processing is
big business in North Carolina. It is
q business which has shown re-
markable growth since the end Of
World War ii.
Yet there Is a strong and grow
ing feeling among those who give
time and thought to studying this
increasingly important part Of the
States economy that even greater
and more profitable use can and
should be made of the food products
now grown in North Carolina and
5 those that can be produced. And
they insist more food processing
can make this possible if fuller adj
vantage Is taken Of opportunities
existing in this field.
IA 1850. the output value of foods
processed in the States approxi-
rnately 900 active food manufactur-
in9 establishments was s649 mil
lion. q gain of s412 million over
what { was for 1947. In 1889 it
was $50 million, according to In
dustrial Directory and Manufac-
turers Record, Atlanta, Ga.
Growth Of the food processing
industry has been materially aided

in which some OF the main ingred-
tents are vegetables.
The survey showed that while
there are 1870 seafood professors
in North Carolina doing a gross
annual business Of So million, q
considerable amount Of seafood
taken from State waters is carried
outside the State for processing,
It is ironical but true that large
seafood is later returned to North
Carolina for sale and in some in
stances marketed and served as
having been processed in other
states and which carry brand la
bells of companies located in the
states in which the products were
processed. Some seafoods are
brought into this State for pro-
Icessing when economic or natural
conditions make it necessary.
The poultry business is one in
which remarkable strides have beer
made in the past two decades. It is
estimated that As truckloads OF
more of processed poultry leave
North Carolina each working day OF
the year, and that 16 truckloads OF
25, 900 pounds each is consumed
each day in this State.
|. Gross cash income to farmers
raising poultry in the State in 1850
was put at $170 million.
An indication of how this poul-
try business has grown can be seen
in the fact that broiler production
| in North Carolina increased from
4,400, 900 in 1910 to 1857 100 ir
1860. Growth in broiler production
has resulted in the construction
of a large number of processing
plants in the State.
The survey also showed there are
in North Carolina % dairy plants
producing both milk and ice cream
SO plants producing milk, IS produc-
ling ice cream, 2 producing butter
Ione producing evaporated milk, anc
one producing milk, butter and milk
powder. These plants represent ar
investment of more than $50 mil
lion, employ about 5000 persons
and have $50 million annual pay.
roll. The farmer is said to receive
about $50 million per year from
the sale of dairy products.
Cash receipts from dairy pro
ducts rank third among the agri-
cultural commodities marketed by
North Carolina farmers.
There are some $50 livestock
slaughtering and meat processing
firms in North Carolina. These
plants are said to handle arounc
800 million pounds of livestock an
nually, but the survey showed tbs
State is dependent ON other areas
for almost two-thirds of its meat
requirement despite the fact tina
! no later than 1858 it ranked It'll

ton, 33rd in sheep and lamb pro

Price support will be available
on frost damaged wheat at special
discount rates, Fred Iversen,
chairman Of the Richland County
ASC committee, announced this
week. The original 1862 program
announcement did not include
support for wheat damaged by
frost.
Heavy frost during the first
week in September caused some
damage to spring wheat at higher
elevations which was unharvested
at the time of the frost. There has
also been damage in areas where
wheat maturity was delayed by
summer hail storms. Price support
eligibility requirements have been
brOadened to meet this abnormal
situation and to give price protec-
ton to the damaged wheat. Farm
ers can obtain loans now and mar
ket the grain later in a more or
derby manner after the extent and
severity of the damage has been
determined.
A few weeks ago price support
provisions were relaxed to extend
eligibility to light weight wheat
which was affected by stem rust.
This may also be applicable to
some frost damaged wheat, Mr..
IverSen said.
Frost-damaged and light weight
wheat must meet all other eligibi-
lily requirements, Price support
