Maybe it's alright to order a guitar or a buzz-saw by mail, but when you buy insurance of any kind, you need a local man to advise and help you. For these reasons: 1. Insurance is so adaptable to individual needs these days, that practically every policy should be "tailor made." You need someone to measure your personal requirements and ad vise you closely. 2. If, later, you have a loss and a claim, your local agent can ar range collection for you with a minimum of worry to you! k i America Fore INSURANCt CROUP ? WATAUGA Insurance Agency E. F. COE.

WE SOLICIT YOUR BUSINESS boonIe sheet metal works Home Lane, Mgr. New Phone 273- W THIS WEEK IN WlSHIfrGTOlV me report 01 me commission headed by former president Herbert Hoover on reorganization of the executive branch of the federal government likely will be filed piecemeal with the congress between now and March 13 when the commission will officially die. "Several billion" dollars would be saved if report of the commission is carried out and more effective and efficient gov ernment would result, according to the report. President Truman is in full accord with the report of the commission. In the meantime, of tremen dous importance as the congress got down to the committee stage in legislation was a report made, by Secretary of Interior J. A. Krug before the senate commit tee on interior and insular af fairs headed by Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney of Wyoming I Secretary Krug's report was revealing in its scope both in the work being done with our natur al resources and what is not be ing done but should be done to conserve the raw materials and energy required by the nation to produce the staggering amounts of goods and services necessary for our standard of living. For instance, we consumed two billion barrels of oil. six hundred million tons of coal, 96 million tons of iron and steel and 300 billion kilowatt-hours of electric power last year. But what hap pened in addition to this tremen dous output? For every two tons of coal mined, one was left In the ground and lost; more energy was wasted through flaring of natural gas in the fields than is produced by the entire series of TV A dams; weight of the average automobile increased in the face of declining iron ore and oil re serves; public range lai)d was over-grazed at the cost of less meat and wool tomorrow; we waste more undeveloped electric power than we produce, and burn in the air a fifth of the natural gas we produce. I What we need do is look for more mineral ores in the 90 perj cent of our area which is not even geologically mapped; we need to add 17 million acres to farm land by irrigation and in crease yields on 9 million more acres by supplemental water! which can best be done by basin wide development in the Colub bia, Missouri, Colorado and other! river valleys. Half the public range in the west needs more grass and other vegetation; 220, 000,000 acres need re-seeding; we are using up saw timber at twice the rate of growth; we will need 80 million kilowatts of ad-{ ditional power by 1970 of which| 30 million kw should be hydro electrically provided by the fed eral government; we must ex tract oil from shale and coal; we must maintain the principle of the family -sized farm. Said Secretary Krug: "The! basic and traditional principles! which assure the use, develop-' ment and conservation of our natural resources for the benefit of the people as a whole, were seriously attacked during the 80th congress by those who would like to be able to exploit our resources for private gain. This attack came dangerously close to success, particular)! in sofar as it was directed ft 1W public power program and the concept of the family-sized farm." 1 Testimony before the house i and senate committees on labor and public welfare in hearings on the increase of the minimum wage in the wages and hours act, is enlightening. More testimony insofar as the larger cities and towns are concerned is that the raise from 40 to 75 qents an hour minimum will cause no hardship since that wage is already being pard. Not so, however, in many small business concerns in small towns and rural areas, mostly in the South. Some testimony was brought out that average wage of unskilled labor in many .sec tions Of the South is about SO] ccnts an hour and that a boost to 75 cents will put some small businesses out of business. ? ? ? Probably never so adequately . . . without question never so succinctly or with such polish and finesse has a question been handled by our state department as Secretary of State Dean Ache son handled the Joe Stalin press ' peace propaganda. Secretary ; Acheson punctured the phony ' propaganda with such finality ' that there could be m> question 1 in anyone's mind, least of all Mr. ' Stalin's, about where this coun- 1 try stands with regard to Rus sia and Russia's broken pro- 1 mises. President Truman was i bombarded with questions in his press conference following the < Acheson statement. The Presi- : dent wisely refrained from fur ther comment other than to say Mr. Acheson had covered the question adequately and had said all there was to say on the subject.

This the 28th day of January, 1949 FRED M GRAGG Clerk Superior Court, Watauga County 2-3-4C-H Hot Ashes Can Cost Plenty in Cold Cash This is the season when hot ashes cost the nation plenty in :o!d cash. County Agent L. E. ruckwiller of the State College Extension Service warned local farmers today. "More than 1 1 million dollars is lost each year in fires caused ?jy carelessness with hot ashes and coals," he declared. "With the country's fire losses at an all time high ? 700 million dollars *ras burned up in 1948 ? there is io excuse for such waste." Mr. Tilckwiller suggested four Fire safety rules for farmers dur- ? ing February and March- 1 1. Never empty hot ashes or :oals into wooden, cfardboard or flammable containers. Use, in stead, a metal trash barrel, pre ferably of the lid type. 2. Keep the area surrounding the furnace, stove or fireplace free of refuse and combustible material. 3. Be sure an Underwriters' ? approved fire extinguisher of the type designed to put out coal or nil fires is handy. 4" Always usu a fire- screen m front of the fireplace to prevent sparks from escaping into the room. Good habits of fire safety shough be taught each member of the family, the county agent said, because "tending the fire" has become everybody's job in spite of modern inventions which have made many parts of the job automatic.
