Add'iai^fe Sum To Farm hcome V - »;• Hortii Caitdina Fanners Have Received $10,337,038 From Federal Ctovermnent WaahinKlon, Oct. •.—A total of $ia4,'^09,668 has been added to farm income in 1933 and 1934 in rental and benefit pay ments disbursed up to September 1. t(f‘flirmers co-operating in the adjustment programs for wheat, cott$|, tobacco, corn and hogs, according to the monthly report Issued today by the comptroller of the Agricultural Adjustment administration. Of this amount North Carolina farmers received $10,337,038.81. Tobacco growers have been paid the , largest amount, $5,432,- 411.56 while cotton growers have drawn in rental and bene fit payments $4,845,057.93. Fro'm September 1, the date of the monthly report, to October 5, farmers have received checks for rentfj and benefit payments ap proximating $58,000,000, bring ing the total of rental and bene fit payments to around $352,- 000,000. Also contributing to farm in come are expenditures totaling $101,308,068 in the purchase of surplus hogs, butter, cheese and cattle; in export operations for wheat, and in conservation of seed, as shown in the monthly report. Of the rental and benefit pay ments disbursed to date of the report, producers participating in the cotton program have re ceived $152,903,516; wheat pro ducers $70,505,594; tobacco pro ducers $15,978,833; and corn- hog producers, $55,421,723.

Rental and benefit fi gures, however, do not include transactions in distribution of profits or advances on cotton op tions, either exercised or through participation in the cotton pool, as these are included in a separ ate report. BRAME’S RHEUHA-LAX FOR RHEUMATISM Quick fteiM R. ML BRAME ft SON Nonh WUkMbtfn, M. C This Week h Fnemploymcnt the Problem Washington, Oct. 9. (Auto caster)—The big worry of the Administration is still the mat ter of unemployment. How are workers going to he put hack to work? Four-fifths of all the ac tivities of the Government are now being focussed on that ques tion. It lies at the bottom of the reorganization of the NRA. It was the keynote of the Presi dent’s radio talk to the nation the other night. And nobody has come forward with an answer which satisfies everybody. Perhaps the new NRA organi zation will work out a formula that will do the trick. Washing ton is not at all sold on the theory which is being advanced in several quarters, and which seems to be gaining ground, that in the best of times there are al ways three million men out of work, on any given date. The principal trouble with all the discussion of unemployment is that nobody really knows how many able-bodied, willing work ers are out of work, now, or at any time in the past. There nev er has been—perhaps there nev er can be—an accurate separa tion of the unemployed into the two or three—classes into which they naturally fall. Classifving The Workers There are the skilled, compe tent workers, who give a day’s work for a day’s pay; the sea sonal workers who prefer to loaf in off-seasons, and the unem ployables, who often manage to get on payrolls in the flushest of flush times but work only when necessity drives. There is coming to be a gen eral agreement in .Administra tion circles that a high propor tion—some put it at 90 per cent —of all the present unemploy ment is in the so-callcd “durable goods” indiistrie.s. The major in dustry in this category is build ing, and that docs not mean homes alone, but factories, ho tels, hospitals, railroads, ships, and every other sort of construc tion work which produces things which are not immediately eaten up or worn out but are useful to earn money for their owners. Financing durable goods in dustries requires long-time capi tal investments. And it is pre cisely there that the difficulty begins of inducing private capi tal to invest. Hanks can’t lend— ought not to l«nd—inon^-on der posit subject to call, on long term mortgage loans or bond Is sues. The amended Securities Act makes It somewhat easier to float bond issues for such pur poses. The President and Congress The President was reassuring in his radio talk. He came out pretty squarely for the “driving power of individual initiative and the incentive of fair private prof it.’’ There persists a fear, how ever, that the next Congress may not see eye to eye with either the President or with private capital. That there will be more radicals in the next Congress than in the last one is the prevailing belief here. More of them will be la belled “Republican,” in all prob ability; but party labels mean nothing to business men when their money is at stake. Until the temper of the new Congress has been demonstrated, which will not be until some time after it convenes in January, there may not be any material increase of the willingness of private cap ital to finance many projects. The progress made under the Federal Housing Act is regard ed as highly encouraging. It is bringing money out for “mod ernization” of homes at the rate of hundreds of millions, and if the reports which reach Jim Moffett’s headquarters are to be relied on, some time next month will start a big movement of new home construction. 'This may run to a billion dollars or more of investment, with a corres- . ponding increase in employment in the building trades. Richberg and Williams As to the reorganized NRA. certain facts and personalities stand out. Personalities first. Two men will run the whole show. They are Donald R. Rich- berg and S. Clay Williams. They are the only full-time executives provided for. Mr. Richberg was for years counsel for the rail road brothe'-hoods. He does not believe strongly in government dictation to business, but he doesn’t think business can or ganize effectively and stick to gether unless the Government lends a hand. Clay Williams, as was pointed out iu this corres pondence some weeks ago, is held in high esteem by industri al leaders, who have been “pro- WARM and SNUG as a Mother's / // Hugl WE’VE GOT YOUR SIZE IN HANES UNDERWEAR TOMLINSON’S DEPr.

A third person ality of importance is Sidney Hillman, Mr. Hillman is a lawyer and is the dominating spirit of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers, the largest labor or ganization of the A. F. of L. With Richberg’s Brotherhood affiliations and Hillman’s con nection with the Amalgamated, it looks as if the Federation’s strength in labor affairs was on the decline Both Richberg and Hillman favor “vertical” unions, as opposed to the Federation's “craft” unions. The New NRA Sol-np The new set-up consists of the Industrial Emergency Commit tee, to shape policies, consisting of Secretaries Ickes and I’erkins, .Administrator Davis of AAA and Relief Administrator Hopkins, together with Richberg and Wil liams. .Administration will be by a new alphabetical bureau, NIRB — National Industrial Recovery Board—headed by Clay Williams and including Sidney Hillman, Leon C. Marshall, Walton H. Hamilton and Arthur D. White- side. Policies of the new Recovery Administration will lean, it is believed, strongly away from price - fixing, strongly toward more competition in business. Codes will be simplified and made more workable. Part Play^ed By.Card|BUiis br BatUe of Cet^ai)^ Captain S. A. Ashe, ot Raleigh, once said “Pride in ancestry is one of the virtues of a people,” and that we may increase that virtue let us refresh our mem ories in the part our ancestors took in the battle at Gettysburg. Directly after the battle of Get tysburg, President Lincoln de tailed Colonel Fox, of the regu lar United States army, to write a story of regimental losses on both sides during the War Be tween the States, and in it we find; "the loss of the 26th North Carolina Regiment at Gettys burg was the severest loss suf fered during the entire war by troops on either side.” Wm. A. Smith commander of North Carolina division. United Confederate Veterans, in 1926 said: “North Carolina did her duty nobly on the fatal field at Gettysburg July 1, 1863. Some regard this battle as the high water mark of the Confederacy —the turning point—the decis ive battle of the War Between the States. July 1, Meredith’s famous “Iron Brigade’’ and Stone’s no less famous “Pennsylvania Buck- tails,” were seasoned troops— stubborn fighters, here were brought face to face with Ram- seur's and Pettigrews North Car olinians. The Federals shouted, “We’ve come here to stay,” and about 1,500 of them did stay and enrich the soil ot Pennsylvania at the fearful cost of 1,000 brave North Carolinians. The 26lh Regiment had 12 color bearers shot down when its gallant colonel, Henry G. Gurgwyn only 21, seized the flag, to be in turn mortally wounded, and fell with the be loved emblem around his body. In Picketts famous charge the third day—Pickett and his staff stopped 600 yards from the Yan kee line in a hollow protected from the enemy’s fire and did not go further to the front. Vir ginia lost 399 killed and North Carolina 770 killed outright, nearly twice as many. This tells the tale—who bore the brunt of the battle.’’ North Carolina soldiers deserve was while in camp there that they learned obedience to orders which brought them fame throughout the war. The late Walter Clark says: “We had great Generals, hut their fame rests upon the incomparable soldiery who made them great The greatest figure ot that great time was the confederate soldier of whom it can be said, not in eulogy but in simple truth, that as long as the breezes blow, while the grasses grow, while the rivers run, his Tecord will be summed up in eternal fame in this sentence: ‘He Did His Du ty’.’’ BESS GORDON F.

Kalesmen fatally wounded three men and shot 11 others, including seven women, before he was himself mortally wounded by police. He never bad a chance to use the bomb. The king and Barthoa were riding together in an automobile with the populace of Marseille cheering when Kalemen jumped to the running hoard of the car at 4:10 p. m., and poured out his fatal fusillade of bullets.

Mr, Jesse Fergii-son, was Com missary Sergeant of Company C. .After organization they went immediately to Fort Macon, on Hogue Island. There was a great deal of sickness among the sol diers. An epidemic ot measles and fever caused the death of quite a number.

In all other townships in the county the names of qualified voters remain on the registra tion books but anyone coming of age or moving into the other townships and who are entitled to register are required to do so on one of the three Saturdays for registration if they expect to cast a ballot on November 6. Early registration is urged in the townships where new regis trations have been ordered in order that the work can be done accurately and that there will not be a rush on the last day. At the time The Journal-Pa triot went to press this morning list of appointments of registrars had not been completed and it was indicated that this would be done this afternoon or tomor row. It is presumed that many ot the registrars appointed for the June primaries will hold over but appointments must be made in the newly created precincts. Three Bars of Gold Found In Davidson County Creek Stories of Lexington, Oct. ». a mysterious theft of a leather trunk filled with gold bars min ed in Davidson county by Ros well A. King, an English mining pioneer in ibis section, were re vived here today when it was re vealed that Meade Lopp, 20, ot this city, had found three bars of what proved to he apparently 24 carat solid gold in a sandbar while squirrel hunting Saturday morning. Lopp reported that he was walking along a small stream at a point near Lexington which he declines to reveal when he saw the end of a bright metallic bar about half an inch square stick ing out of the sand. He kicked the object and found the bar was about four Inches long. Sur prised by its color and unusual weight he dug in the sand and found two other similar bars. He brought them to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. I. Lopp, where all day yesterday the fanfily speculated on wheth er the find was brass or a more precious substance. Early this morning the father brought one of the bars to a jeweler and it stood the teat for high grade gold. The others were brought up and the three weigh ed 33 troy ounces, worth at cur rent prices over $1,000. They were placed with a local banking and insurance concern this afternoon and insured for $1,000 awaiting further develop- i ments.

Lights ihave burned late in shops, studio, and laboratory. Engineers and artists have brought into being revolutionary trends in the building of the new Ford V-8. Ford’s new automobile is more than ever tomorrow’s vehicle —in looks, in comfort, in speed, in driving econ omy. To fully appreci ate it you should set and drive the new ford. Tbe Ford Plant Re-opens P erhaps you wonder why Ford reopened his Charlotte Branch. He didn’t. The peo ple of the two Carolinas were responsible for the Charlotte Branch being made a Ford distributing center. Immediately after the introduction of Ford’s gi-eatest motor car creation, the Ford V-8, the people of the Carolinas started the wheels turning toward the reopening of the Charlotte Branch by purchasing the neAV cars by the thousands. The vast demand for Ford V-8’s created a serious delivery problem —a problem that had to be solved. Purchas ers wanted the new cars and wanted them immediately. What could Ford do to simpli fy this situation? Ford couldn’t expect the purchasers to wait indefinitely for their cars —that would soon lead into a more serious problem. The result! Ford’s Charlotte Plant was made the distributing branch for the two Carolinas. Our Organization Is Happy WITH Charlotte as the distributing center If for Ford V-8’s and Ford parts it gives our organization the happy opportunity to assure immediate deliveries in both cars and parts. So when you decide to select your new car you can now be assured that you won’t have to ■wait before you can enjoy this remarkable automobile.
