Governor Presented
NC Poultry Gifts
RALEIGH The First
Family of North Carolina
will be enjoying Tar Heel
grown and processed
poultry food products during
the Christmas and New
Year holidays.
The North Carolina
poultry industry presented
Gov. James B. Hunt and his
family an array at poultry
food gifts for the holiday
season during a presen
tation at the Governor’s
Mansion in Raleigh. Among
the bounty was gift packs of
broilers, eggs, duckling and
a festively packaged turkey
bearing the greeting,
“Happy Holidays, Mr.
Governor!”.
Ed Woodhouse, executive
director of the N. C. Poultry
Federation, pointed out to
Mrs. Carolyn Hunt, the
state’s First Lady, that
North Carolina probably has
a greater variety of poultry
food products grown and
processed in the state than
any other state in the nation.
In addition to chickens,
turkeys and eggs, North
Carolina also produces quail
and duckling.

THE CHOWAN HERALD
Program Is Adopted
“An acceptable program
for the elderly was
developed and adopted at
the White House Conference
on Aging held recently in
Washington, D.C., even
though there was an ap
parent structuring of the
conference to assure
adoption of President
Reagan’s social and
economic policies,” said
Ernest B. Messer, assistant
secretary of the Division of
Aging of the North Carolina
Department of Human
Resources. Messer headed
the 69 North Carolina
delegates and observers
that attended.
More than 600 resolutions
were introduced and passed.
Messer felt the most im
portant happening in the
conference was the support
by the delegates for the
Social Security System as it
is now constituted with no
reductions in benefits. The
delegates felt reform should
enhance, rather than
diminish protection.
Messer said the ad
ministration had appointed
400 extra delegates about
three weeks before the
conference began and they
played leading roles in in
troducing the President’s
program and receiving
recognition for this. The
committee chairmen, ap
pointed by the ad
ministration, also made it
difficult for others to in
troduce resolutions, he
commented. Only a small
number of the delegates was
assigned to the committees
they requested, according to
Messer.
However, he felt there
were several significant
recommendations passed at
the Conference. One was the
provision that governmental
agencies and private en
terprises make available
part-time jobs for senior
citizens and, if necessary,
training programs should be
structured to qualify them
for these jobs.
Members of the con
;(?i?W*;;;ostf4ed that
volunteer services by senior
citizens should be en
couraged and that tax laws
be changed to permit
volunteers to deduct ex
penses from income tax.
It was also recommended
that in-home services such
as home health care and
adult day care be expanded
and that regulations under
medicare and medicaid be
changed to permit reim
bursement for these ser
vices. It was the thinking of
the council that it would be
more economic to en
courage older citizens to
request care so they may
stay at home. Present laws
encourage the aging to go
into institutions.
Forced retirement was
attacked. The old laws
require retirement at a
specific age. The council felt
this should be abolished and
that a law prohibiting age
discrimination be rigidly
enforced.
There was a number of
resolutions proposing to
make housing and tran-
Mr. ReveHs, 76,
Taken In Death
Ulysess G. Revells, 76, of
Chowan County, died
December 12 at the Chowan
Hospital following a short
illness. The son of the late
Mrs. Allie Revells Dillard,
he was a retired farmer and
a senior deacon at White
Oak Church.
He is survived by his
brother, Lindsey Dillard of
Edenton, and two sisters,
Bessie Jordan of Tyner and
Ida Mae Ambrose of
Ahoskie.
Funeral services will be
held today (Thursday) at 3
PM. at the White Oak
Baptist Church by Rev.
Robert Holloman. Burial
will follow at the White Oak
Church Cemetery.

spoliation both public and
private more readily
available to the elderly.
There were recom
mendations for an ex
pansion of preventive health
services. It was also
proposed that government
and private enterprise set
up pre-retirement training
for prospective retirees.
Pension plans for employees
were advocated for
establishments and private
enterprise.
Among the 14 major
questions addressed by the
conference delegates were:
How will the “graying” of
America affect our social
institutions? How will it
affect our families,
economy, educational
system, and government
programs? What role should
governments and the tax
payers play in dealing with
these vital issues? What
roles can be played by such
private sector institutions as
business, labor unions and
professional associations -
voluntary charitable
organizations, religious
groups and others. What are
the areas in which public
and private sectors can
work together?
The White House Con
ference on Aging brought
together citizens from
across the nation to make
recommendations to be used
in developing a proposed
national policy. It is an
ticipated that this policy,
together with recom
mendations for its im
plementation, will be
presented to President
Reagan and Congress by
mid-1982.
The Division of Aging in
North Carolina is planning
to classify the recom
mendations of the confer
ence as to Federal and State
action that will be needed to
implement proposals of the
Council for use in the state.

USING WOOD ASHES:
With the increase of burning
wood for home heating there
has also been an increase in
the production of ashes.
There is good use for that
pile of ashes building up at
the back of the house.
Wood ashes can be
beneficial to lawns, gardens
and plant growth beds. They
contain potassium or
potash, which is an essential
plant nutrient, an they have
some of the same influence
as lime. In other words, they
can help to raise the pH of
the soil. There are no known
toxic constituents in wood
ashes that will damage
plants if used at appropriate
rates.
Page 11-A
The nutrient and liming
capability of wood ashes
varies slightly according to
the type of wood burned. A
general rule is to use no
more than one bushel of
ashes per 1,000 square feet
every other year.
Ideally, the ashes should
be broadcast on the surface
and incorporated into the
soil. Make sure you remove
nails and other objects that
might have been attached to
scrap wood.
As a precaution, it would
be best to have your soil
tested every two years if you
plan to apply ashes on a
continuing basis.
