Allotment Compliance Needed To Share Soil Bank Payments Compliance with all acreage al lotments is a basic eligibility re _ quirement for payment under the 1957 Soil Bank Acreage Reserve Program, H. D. Godfrey, Admin istrative Officer for the Agricul tural -Stabilization and Conserva tion State Committee, says. In order to complete pay ments under the 1957 Acreage Re serve Program, as sobn as possi ble, ASC county offices have been instructed to make payments un der the Acreage Reserve Pro gram as soon as compliance has been checked on the commodity placed in the Reserve, with no re gard at the present time to the acreage of other allotment' crops on the farm. According to God frey, this means that a farmer who accepts a Soil Bank Acre age Reserve payment and is la ter found to have over-planted 'some other allotment crop on the farm will be required to refund the total amount of the Soil Bank payment or be subject to legal Campaign Is Now In Full Swing Keep North Carolina Beautiful Governor Luther Hodges’ new campaign to rid North Carolina of the “litterbug” is now in full swing—and will continue through the summer.

A farmer who places land for a particular crop in the, Acreage Reserve Program not only has to meet program requirements for those acres but also must stay within his farm’s allotment for all other crops covered by the program. This includes cotton, tobacco, peanuts, and corn. Farm ers must also comply their wheat allotments provided the wheat allotment .4 over 15 acres. Where wheat acreage is being placed in the Soil Bank Reserve, farmers must comply with their allotment even though that allot ment be less than 15 acres. Godfrey explained the making of these Soil Bank payments be fore all compliance-is checked by saying that the percentage of farmers who do not comply with the allotment programs is so very small that it would not warrant holding up all payments until all compliance had been checked. ducting the 90-day effort. “This is the first step toward what we believe will be a much cleaner and more attractive State”, said Governor Hodges. “We are starting with the high ways, public parks and recreation centers because there the accum ulation of travel-trash is the first eye-sore to greet the t%veler. But we hope this movement will spread to include every city street, every school ground and every individual’s own private yard. “Our big problem is to arouse i the conscience of our people. Once a person stops to. think, he is not likely to dump trash out of his car window or leave the beaches, mountain resorts and ; public parks looking like so many trash heaps. It’s ah easy matter to keep litter in a bag in your car, and then empty it when you : reach a proper receptacle—such ! as many filling stations are pro ; viding. As for that empty ciga rette pack, why not put it back i in your pocket where it’s been all the time, instead of throwing it ■ along the highway? “We are counting on the chil- I dren to be a big help in putting this effort across. Boys and girls are very adept at arousing their parents’ conscience—as all cf us parents know. And this is a movement in which they can set the good example for us to fol low.” BLOODSHED BOXSCORE ON N.C.HIGHWAYS Raleigh The Motor Vehicles Department’s summary of traffic deaths through 10 A.

Outdoor Dramas Now Showing Continued from Pago I—Section 1 Roanoke Island, site of the first English settlements in America. With the exception of three years during World War 11, it has played each summer since then and has been seen bv over a million people. Roanoke Isl and was the objective of Sir Walter Raleigh’s ill-fated at tempts to establish English col onies in the New World in 1585 and 1587, and it was the tragic mystery surrounding the disap pearance of the “lost” colony of U 587 which inspired the drama. ' Land surrounding the Waterside Theatre is now Fort Raleigh National Historical site, where th? dwellings of the early col onists and the little earthen 'fort which guarded them have been restored. Scenes in the drama re-enact authenticated events in Elizabethan England and on Roanoke Island, but Playright Green does not at tempt to solve the mystery of what happened to the Roanoke Colonists. The Cherokee Indian Reserva tion in the Great Smoky Moun tains is the home of “Unto These Hills,” its cast including descendants of the Cherokee leaders portrayed in the drama. Written by Kermit Hunter of Chapel Hill, “Unto These Hills” is beginning its eighth season as America’s box office cham pion among outdoor historical dramas. It is produced in Moun tainside Theatre at the com munity of Cherokee on U. S. 441 near the North Carolina .entrance to the Great Smoky 'Mountains National Park. “Unto These Hills” is the story of the Cherokees’ struggle to keep their homes and the martyrdom of one of their leaders, Tsali, to permit his people to remain in the Great Smokies rather [than be removed to the wesj across the “trail of tears.” j Daniel Boone, who blazed a j trail across North Carolina’s | Blue Ridge Mountains, before the Revolutionary War, is the I central figure portrayed in I “Horn In the West.” In this ! play Kermit Hunter tells the 'story of the westward move ment of pioneers who carved homes out of the wilderness and defended their freedom in I the Battle of Kings Mountain. jThe drama, which has played j every summer since 1952, is I staged in the Daniel Boone Theatre at the town of Boone six miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway in Northwestern North Carolina. The dramas are produced by non-profit historical associations and draw much of their direc tion and talent from the Caro lina Playmakers and the Uni versity of North Carolina’s De partment of Dramatic Art, Cha pel Hill.
