AAA OFFERS FARMERS OF COUNTY $317,698.00 Farmers of Franklin County can earn $317,698.00 in Agricultural Conservation payments under tbe 1939 Triple-A Farm Program, it was announced by E. Y. Floyd, AAA executive officer of State College. Last year tbey earned $211,881.00 by complying with acreage allotments and carrying out soil building practices. Floyd said tbat farmers who expect to qualify for payment in this year's program should sign an individual farm plan before June 15, if this has not already been done. To determine whether this requirement has been met, a producer should check bis re cords to see if he has a copy of the Farm Plan. Floyd stated Coun ty Farm Agents and local AAA committeemen are prepared to as sist every farmer in understand ing bis soil-depleting acreage al lotments, in working out a goal for spil-buildlng practices, and )n otherwise earning his miximum payment. In addition to the payments for carrying out soil building practices and complying with soil depleting acreage allotments, a Cotton Price Adjustment* payment is available in counties Where' cotton is grown. This county's maximutn Cotton Price Adjustment payment for 1939 is $2,965.00. Floyd said that two soil build ing practices being encouraged this year are tbe application of triple-superpboshate and ground limestone. Payments may be earn ed for applying phosphate in con nection with the seeding of peren nial or biennial legumes, peren nial grasses, annual ryegrass, winter legumes, lespedeza, crota laria, or permenant pasture (ex cept in connection with soil-de pleting crops). Limestone can be applied to any crop, except that applications of less than 1,000 pounds per acre on peanuts, flue cured tobacco, and commercial vegetables will not be counted. The Triple-A is making triple superphosphate and ground agri cultural limestone available in all counties as grants-of-aid ; that is. the material is being furnished now with the cost to be deducted from soil building payments next year. County farm agents are pre pared to help all farmers obtain the phosphate and lime as grants .of-aid. TAXES - Whether taxes are or are not business deterrents depends to a large extent upon whether govern ment activities are necessary acti vities, whether they are efficient ly performed, and whether govern ment policies as a whole are sound. Given a certain amount of revenues to be raised, howeyer, for whatever reason, it is obvious that certain ways of raising them will have a more deterrent effect cn business than others. What the present advocates of tax revision are now advocating is merely the adoption of the least harmful ways of raising the existing level of revenues and the repeal of the most harmful ways. That problem should not present insuperable difficulties. In fact, there is re markable agreement among the tax revisionists concerning the necessary program. ? New York Times.

Charlotte, N, C., June 6. ? Citi zens ol the two Carolinas are be ing urged to participate in the fourth annual "Safety Sabbath", sponsored by the Carolina Motor Club in an effort to reduce high way accidents, which will be ob served throughout the two states Sunday July 2. "Ministers, the press, radio, public officials and civic organiza tions are expected to exert a pow erful influence in molding public sentiment against careless and reckless driving at all times and the observance of Safety Sabbath has been set especially before In dependence Day in hope that the holiday death and accident toll of 1938 will be materially lowered," Coleman W. Roberts, president of the motor club, stated today. "Last Year 475 people were killed and over 10,000 injured throughout the nation on July 4. Is -the Carolinas, 24 lost their lives, 10 dying- as result of auto mobile accidents. Lack of caution and regard for the 'other fellow' were the principal causes of the fatalities." Suggestions for Safety Sabbath programs, research dataapd safe ty facts have been compiled by A. M. Huggins, safety director of the Carolina Motor Club, and are available to all interested parties. Mr. Huggins anticipates unusual cooperation from public spirited citizens and has hopes that the Carolinas will show great improve ment this year. "In 15 years of war there were 244,357 casualties compared with 441,912 traffic deaths in 15 years of peace", Mr. Huggin^points out. "In war, soldiers die for a pur pose but what purpose can there ( be in killing hundreds of thousands on the highways of our1 peaceful country? This slaughter is worse than war and public sen timent is the most rapid and sure ! way of curbing this disgraceful condition." Safety information may be sec ured from Mr. Huggins at his of- 1 fice in Carolinas Motor Club bead- 1 quarters at Charlotte. ^ What would Hitler say if agita tors started a movement in Ger many asking Britain and France to ,step in and take the country. It might not be a bad idea, at that. Manton Is Convicted : Ex-Judge Fkm Prison In Bribery Case. New York, June 3 ? Former ] Federal Circuit Court Judge Mar- ( tin T.
