Participation In USDA
Food Program Increases
Atlanta, Ga. - U. S. De
partment of Agriculture food
programs aided 236,154
needy persons in North Caro
lina during February, 11,031
persons more than the num
ber that received food
assistance in January.
U SDA's Consumer and
Meeting Service said that
62,839 persons in 33 counties
took part in its food stamp
program and received
$439,499 in bonus coupons.
C&MS' family food distri
bution program aided
173,515 persons in 61 coun
ties. The foods distributed
had an estimated retail value
of $1.9 million and included
dairy products, canned and
dried fruits and vegetables,
canned meat or poultry, grain
and cereal products, as well as
other items such as peanut
butter and scrambled egg
mix.
C&MS officials attributed
the increased participation to
a slack in seasonal employ
ment and the addition of
Catawba County into the
food stamp program.
In North Carolina, the
food distribution program is
administered by the North
Carolina Department of Agri
culture, and the food stamp
program is administered by
the North Carolina Board of
Public Welfare, both in co
operation with the Consumer
and Marketing Service.
Franklin had 2,624 per
sons to participate in the
food stamp program.
One of these days some
people are going to learn that
hard work only teaches a real
appreciation of values.

There must be a reason
that the Savings and Loan Business has again set new records
in the amount of money people are saving with them.
Is it because savings and loans are Specialists in the savings
field? And because they are savings specialista, is It because
they offer the best savings plan for the most people? /
Frankly, we think "yes" is the answer to both questions,
because people tell us. They like the idea of being able to get
their savings when they want it ? on demand.
They tell us that they like'our businesslike methods of setting
up accounts and paying dividends ?? without "gimmicks."
In five minutes time, your account can be opened for any
amount. Come by this Saturday morning!
