— -■—J« WITH THE FARM W OMEN 1 By VIRGINIA M. v NANCE, Extension Home Economics Editor ' —— ' Water Testing Three areas in Rowan County are the scene of an outstanding community improvement project. A-well water testihg program has been carried on in Bostian Cross Roads, Liberty'and Lingle- Central-Salem communities. In each area, the community leaders used sterilized bottles secured from the county sanitarian office to collect samples of the water used by each family in these com munities. According to Home Economics Agent Edith Hipshaw, 256 wells were checked. Atotal of 35 wells furnishing water'for 300 families was found to be unsafe for drink ing. Recommendations for purifying the water were given to the own ers by the city abattoir. Problem Kitchen A home freezer was the cause Os chaos in the kitchen of Mr. and Mrs. Rob Moore, McFarlan. Home Economics Agent Dallas Pozza suggested two possible ar rangements to ease the situation. These ideas , were vetoed by Mr. Moore because he felt there was not adequate room for the equip ment to be changed. A yardstick came to the rescue. Five minutes later there was no problem kitchen. With accurate measuring and a few hard shoves the equipment “fitted the space like a glove.” Lovely Reception A fervent plea for help with a 25th wedding anniversary cele bration brought Mrs. Cliff Mor-j gan, Perquimans County, to the office of Home Agent Paige Un derwood. By studying material from the home agent’s files plus a visit to the library, Mrs. Morgan felt she was better qualified to or ganize the reception.

Home Nursing Macon County Home Demon stration women realize an ade quate background in home nurs ing better prepares a woman for homemaking and motherhood. Mrs. Florence Sherrill, home eco nomics agent, reported that class es were held in the Mulberry and Holly Springs communities. In,order to take advantage of the home nursing instructor'? course, Mrs. Ayers drove 70 miles each day. Her efforts were re warded when Mrs. Doyle Long summed up the feelings of all thg women attending the classes by saying, “I wish every woman in the county could attend the home nursing classes.” Family Economics Family economics was the sub ject of recent demonstrations given by Granville County Negro Home Economics Agent Mary Parham to the Home Demonstra tion Clubs in her territory. Emphasis was placed on the en tire family unit studying their in come, fixed expenses, and needs; then, making adjustments and plans before spending the in come. One of the outstanding features of the program was the results of Mrs. Sallie Smith who showed the outcome of planned spending over a period of years. She testi-, fied, "My housework is easier through planned expenses and j savings from my small tobacco crop; I have an electric churn, washing machine, pressure can ner and home freezer. Because of other family planning, we en joy canned and frozen foods in the winter that were conserved from my summer garden; there fore, our food bill is very small.” Anything You Want “Anything is possible if you work hard enough!" This is the philosophy of Mrs. Archie White of the Estelle Community in Cas well County. Foi; a number of years, she has wanted tile on her kitchen floor. Financially it has been impossible. This year her husband produced 0.2 acres of tobacco for a variety test. The proceeds were given to his wife. With this money, she was able to purchase the tile, paste and felt. Mrs. White, by doing all the wmrk, was able to cover her floor for one-half the price. She is proud of her accomplishment, as well as grateful for a fulfillment of a long-time desire. No Comment] ' S By JAMES W. DOUTHAT Assistant Vice President, Government Kelations Division of the National Association of Manufacturers "NO COMMENT" is a report of incidents on the national scene, ’nd does not necessarily reflect •'TAM policy or position. Washington—One of the major| topics of conversation in Wash-' ington is the forthright speech by Postmaster General Summerfield to the Congress of American In dustry advocating that the nation follow time-tried basic economic principles in order to assure its continued greatness. The speech was regarded as of highest significance, since it went farther in this direction than any other Administration official has ever gone publicly. (There was.

THE FLYING GAS PIPE —The gadget shown on the launch* ing pad of the submarine USS Growler, at Portsmouth, N.'iL, is a stand-in for a Regulus II missile. Some 13 tons of con crete-filled steel pipe and assorted hardware, it duplicates weight and balance of the more expensive missile. What's more, the dummy can be recovered and reused.

Principal comment in this con nection is the effect that guch an Administration program would have on the outcome of the 1960 Presidential and Congressional election.

In this connection, the Post master Genera) is convinced that his program (to use his own words) is “the essence of true liberalism—the kind of liberalism which knows that the strength and glory of our nation is the strength and glory of free men organizing and conducting their lives in freedom, and which seeks to spread the life of freedom to all the peoples of the world.” Here are som,e of the major principles supported strongly by the Postmaster General princi ples which many feel must be: followed in the future if essential 1 Champion bourbon ■/.JNMMflflk If •am *9.80 -1- •* mm Pint 8 Years Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey | I mts ttu. atAifP tmm »«mn.

Antitrust laws must be ap plied to unions .(like they are to industry) in order to curb the dangerous monoply power which permits them (among other things) to force wages ever up ward and bring on ruinous infla tion. 2. The political activity of or ganized labor—just as the politi cal activity of all other individ uals and groups—must be brought within reasonable bounds and clearly governed by law. Mr. Summerfield, a former chairman of the Republican Na tional Committee, has deep con victions in this regard. He believes that it is absolutely un-American for labor bosses to be permitted to spend union dues in political efforts that are often in direct opposition to what the dues-paying union member him self wants. 3. Legislation is essential to bring about a clean-up of labor racketeering. Something more ef fective than the “milktoast” Ken nedy-Ives Bill, recently rejected : by Congress, is imperative. 4. Believing that excessive tax ation interferes with the nation’s economic growth, he advocates a program of “thoughtful, responsi ble tax reduction and reform.” 5. A sensible and courageous fiscal policy ij essential to block j the plans f. r federal spending thu*" would create de ficits. even when cur economy is operating at full blast, and which would feed .wdlcssly the fires of inflation.
