New Deputy
Welcomed In
Cumberland

Editor, The Farmville Herald:
We here in Randolph District,
Cumberland County, have a new
Deputy Sheriff, as Paul Asal
takes over the duties after the
resignation of Granville Higgins
whom we havd become attach
ed to and have to regretfuly
give up.
Mr.. Higgins served from the
beginning of Sheriff William v.
French's election to this i'm
portant office Our best wishes
go with Mr. Higgins in his new
undertakings. There is more
Importance attached to the
office of sheriff than we some
times seem to give credit. They
are always subject to call and
we rarely ever need them until
we need them They get no ex-
ira pay and very few thanks for
tae great service they render.
No people are more law abid-
ing than the responsibility of
Law Enforcement in its pro-
cedure, which begins and ends
with the office of sheriff.
l feel that we here in Cumb-
erland have been wonderfully
blessed with the best protection
and conscientious law enforce
ment that could be experienced
by any peace loving people and
l stand ready and join with you
to give Paul Asal and the Of
flee Of sheriff full support.

Prosperity In Debt

TREASURY Secretary Douglas Dillon
recently told reporters he foresaw
three consecutive deficits in the years
ahead. The deficit for next fiscal year
is estimated at ten billions. But many
of the Kennedy administrations esti-
mates have proved rosy in the final an
alysis. SO this is a doubtful forecast.
This fiscal years deficit is also to be
large. Can the dollar stand up under
the impact Of four more heavy deficits?
How can initiation be controlled when
four deficits stare us in the face?
These are the question no one pro-
vldes the answers to and which are
worrying conservative economists and
many members of the House of Repre-
sentatlves and the I. S. Senate

De Gaulle's Choice

president Charles de Gaulle of
France has slammed the door on
British entry into the European Com
mon Market. He has also tossed aside
the United States offer Of Polaris mis-
siles.
While negotiations might contiue. the
British chance of entry into the six
nation Common Market seems doomed.
The French leader, now with almost
the same authority Adolph Hitter had
i'll his first years, seems bent on domi-
mating the continent of Europe.
This is a poor omen of the future for
all those in the western democracies
who felt and feel that unity among all

WASHINGTON. Feb. 6

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6
Premier KhruShchev is dangling
a glittering lure as part of a
proposed deal for a package
agreement involving both West
Berlin and a ban on nuclear
testing.
The Kremln rulers come-on
gimmick is an offer to do away
with the Berlin Wall.
The price demanded for ein1i-
mating this hated East-West bar
rier is acceptance Of a series of
far-reaching concessions by the
U. S., Britain and France. In eff
feet, they amount to bowling to
Khrushchev's key terms on both
Berlin and a test ban, as fol-
lows:
(n Allied troops in Berlin to
be put under United Nations
command. and the city to be
"neutralized" Two months after
the UN command is set up, the
Berlin Wall would be torn down.
~ Access routes from West
Germany to West Berlin to be
placed under United Nations
control. with passage guaran-
teed by Russia and the U. S.
80 The Allies to give de facto
recognition to East Germany by
accepting troops Of this Gem
muniSt satellite as guards on the
lnternationalized access routes
from West Germany.
az Agreeing to the Soviet's
test ban plan limiting on-site in
spections to three a year to de
termine if there is any cheating.
This package deal was pre-
sented several weeks ago to
U. S.. British and French dis
armament negotiators in Ge-
neva. This is the first disclosure
Of it.
State Department authorities
believe there is a direct connec-
ton between this weeping
scheme and the Russians re-
cent sudden suspension of the
seemingly promising Washington
test ban negotiations and re-
quest that they be shifted to Ge-
neva. U. S. officials anticipate
the Reds will attempt to inject
their package plan into the &C.
neva deliberations.

other weak prop to an economy which
is experiencing normal fIuctuation
and already bolstered by too many
weak supports.
The federal government is presently
spending an increasingly fantastic "a

conceivable for an individual, business
or government, to increase spending and

sed the fact that proper man

it was disastrous to excite a

To do SO causes her to reverse
