The market derfend for offerings of refund ing' ibonds had disappeared en tirely and thia method of refi nancing was no longer available. I then set about to perfect plans for refinancing under vol untary agreements between local units and their creditors, and set up a Refinancing Division in the Local Government Commission. Where units could meet their ob ligations in full if they were giv en an extension of time, bonds were exchanged at par and the maturities sipread out so that they could be met when due without increasing the tax rate.

While the refinancing which has already 'been done, and is /being done, is the first step and the amount saved in interest approximately $46,000,000.00 is a great help, the task is not completed by any means—the real savings will come in being able to (buy bonds at a fair price and therefore the Director of Ix)cal Government still ha's a great duty and service to render to the local units in se curing their bonds, and will be able to do so now that most of the refinancing has been com pleted. During the past four years $6,- .302,088.00 par value of bonds have been retired for $2,772,- 918.00, or an average cost of a- 'jout 44c. This represents a sav ings to the units during this per iod of time of $3,529,170.00. A large nuni'ber of the units have only recently been refinanced and therefore have not yet built up .sinking funds, and of course, when they are all completed these figures will materially increase each year: 'but the figures given above will give some idea of what we may expect the savings to be in the future.

Washington.—'New tax legisla tion became a destinct threat Monday when President Roose velt suggested to congressional leaders that additional revenue may have to be raised to offset farm parity price suheidies. Senate Democratic Leader AI- ben W. Barkley revealed that Mr. Roosevelt brought the sub ject up at his regular Monday legislative conference in connec tion with the Senate appropria tion committee’s addition o f $21'2,000,000 for parity payments to the 1941 agriculture appropri ation bill. The discussion was general, Barkley said, and no decision was made. A conference of House Rapub- licans meantime unanimously adopted a report prepared by a 13-man com'mittee (headed by Rep. James W. WadaWorth, N. Y., apposing Mr. Roosevelt’s 'budget request for $460,000,000 of spe cial national defense taxes. BEST WISHES —TO THE— lOth Street 5c-10c-25c Store O.F.

Cotton Pushed Into Limelight Present conditions have pushed the much-abused and long-suffer ing cotton crop 'back into the limelight this year, says J. O. Rowell, extension entomologist at State College. Especially in tobacco counties have growers indicated they plan to plant their full cotton acreage allotment. For the past two years, North Carolina has produced un usually short crops of lint. Since the Triple-.4. program states that farmers may market all the cotton they produce on their alloted acres, every effort should be made to get a good harvest, Rowell said. Before they can do this, the State College man pointed out, they must take steps to control the ever-/present and ever-deadly enemy of the crop, the boll weev il. If a program of poisoning is started in time and closely ad hered to, good yields may be ex pected. Rowell said that cotton should be planted as early a.s the season will permit. This is the first step in the fight against the weevil. Then, too, varieties which will mature the bolls quickly should 'be used. The following varieties o f j 31-32 to 1 1-16 inch staple are: recommended for the different sections of the State: Upper Coastal Plain: Coker 100, Mexican, and Farm Relief. For the heavier soils of the lower Coastal Plain: Coker 100 and Carolina Foster.

After the squares form, a good program of dusting should be em ployed as a further control of this insect enemy.
