UffICCTWW TWO. -4 PAGE FOUR SENATOR SAM ERVIN * SAYS * ► ' *•'. ... • ’ Washington—Dave Beck appear, ed before our Senate Committee last week. He refused to answer questions as to his dealings as head of the Teamster’s labor union. He | declined to turn over his records j to the committee. His defense be hind- the Fifth Amendment was not j a satisfactory role for a personj charged with his responsibility as, a powerful labor leader. We. have not heard the last of Mr. Beck. Topic Number One {But there are other things of far reaching importance going on in your Federal government. The number one topic of cloakroom dis cussion seems to be budget slashing and cutbacks in Federal spending. Pressure for economy has posed serious threats to foreign aid and school construction. The battle line? are forming for perhaps the greatest debate on foreign aid spending that we have experienced; the President’s program is in seri ous trouble. Reports Everybody got into the act of studying foreign aid. It is as much studied as anything on the face of the earth. The most recent execu tive reports have been issued by the Fairless and Johnston groups. Con gress is probing; I am advised that there are eight subcommittees at work on various phases of foreign! military and economic aid. The Administration’s strategy appears to 15c to come up with something new to sell the program to Con gress. Meanwhile, the legislators are getting word from back home to slash foreign aid. I plan to con tinue to vote against foreign eco nomic aid. Seniors Arrive The annual trips by North Caro lina high school seniors are getting under way, a certain sign of Spring. It iis a fine thing for seniors to visit | the Capitol, and I want to urge schools to consider making the trip. I am certain that they will find a warm welcome. Those Tarheels I do not want to rehash the re cent close basketball games which resulted in victory for the Univer sity of North Carolina. My pur pose is to point to the interest Tar Heels everywhere had in their team. During the final game at Kansis City when Carolina was fighting to win the national cham pionship, the annual Democratic Congressional Banquet was being held at the Statler here in Wash ington. Nearly 500 North Caro linians, many making the trip from the State for the affair, were en —WWA^/* \ \ »°* \ 'K *"* \ rus*£ f We now carry a com plete line of these famou* . .. treatment cream, fra r grances and fashioa *>•' imfSni make-up. ®mtd tot* cte*«. • • dew>»- ee skin up to 2'i timet mom thoroughly than any &p or other cleansing cream tested! 00 to $3.50, plus tax - HMi-sut itfsrta with Hi itMtUeneUgOtUktan t*'■ % Dorothy G*f tehioa ■ indium,Urn y^. .

Spacing Tobacco Is Very Important To Quality And Yield There are several factors that contribute to a successful tobacco enterprise on the farm, but one of the most important and one that probably has the greatest effect on yield and quality is proper spac ing. S. N. Hawks, tobacco specialist with the North Carolina Agricul tural Extension Service, says there is qo one answer for spacing that will fit every situation. “The soil fertility, variety, expected height of topping and type of tobacco desired are some of the factors to consider Tn determining the best spacing for a particular farip,” he states. | He .points out that •■’event tests indicate that at a given row Width,! and using betwhert 5,000 and 10,000. plants per acre, closer spacing can be expected to increase yields and lower price per pound. This lower price because of closer spacing is usually. caused by the increased amount of thin, chaffy tobacco, es pecially on the lower half of the plant. Available information indicates that when 42 to 54 inch rows are used and the hill’ spacing is kept constant, the closer rows increase yield and. do not materially affect quality, the specialist indicated. The spacing of other crops on the farm should be considered in determining row width for tobacco. For example, if com and cotton are planted in 42 inch rows and culti vated with the same equipment, it will probably be more convenient to use 42 inch rows for the tobacco also. In general, according to the spe cialist, tobacco spaced 20 to 26 inches between hills in 42 to 48 inch rows has prdduced satisfactory quality and good yields. Since the buying companies have indicated a stronger demand for tobacco with more body and oil in! 1957, it seems that a little wider spacing between' plants might be BULK GARDEN E. L. PEARCE E. L.

However, he says excessively wide spacing can be expected to lower yields without improving quality. This factor, like many others, requires a little sound judg ment and common sense in deter mining the proper spacing for your particular farm. TRY A HERALD WAN! AD PEANUT? Certified N.
