Stabilization Members Need Cards
To Be Eligible For Parity Prices
If Original Is Lost, Duplicate Should Be Obtained Im
mediately From L. T. Weeks In Raleigh; Parity
Prices Available Without Card
"Farmers are .urged to have j
their stabilization cards with |
them at sale time or they will'
not be entitled fo the parity pri-!
ces this season until renewing I
their membership," according to J
Dave S. Neilson, sales supervisor
of the Whiteville tobacco mar
ket.
At a recent meeting held in ,
Lumberton to familiarize the J
warehousemen, supervisors, and
other interested parties, of the
changes in the Flue-Cured To
bacco Stabilization Corporations
policies for this season, It was
learned that farmers must be
more careful with their member
ship cards if they are to be
granted parity prices. Neilson stat
ed that if a farmer did not
have his card at the time of the
sale of his leaf he would have to
rejoin the stabilization corpora
tion by paying another $5 for
membership, unless he obtained
a duplicate from Raleigh before
selling. .
The memberships that were
issued last season were good for
three years if the farmer still has
his membership card. If not, he!
must appty to the stabilization of-1
fice in Raleigh. Any grower who
has misplaced his card may re
ceive a copy of the same by writ
ing to L. T. Weeks, Box 1672, in
Raleigh, North Carolina. A new
membership card will be issued
for $1 from the stabilization's of
fice in the capital. I
"If any growers who expect to j
sell during the first week on any
market do not have their mem
bership cards they must obtain
them before they sell and pay
the $1 fee for re-issue, or pay $5
and join again," stated the su
pervisor.
The Whiteville market will
open on Tuesday, August 3, and
all growers are urged to have
their membership cards with
them in order to avoid any un
lecessr.ry delay in their sales onj
he local market.

CATHOLIC INFORMATION
Must We Believe Our Priests
"I can subscribe to most Cath
olic beliefs," a Protestant gentle
man recently remarked, "but I'll
be darned if I'll believe them be
cause some Catholic priest tells
me I must."
Must! What slaves that word
makes of us; but are we not
willing slaves when it is truth
we must believe.
The school child must believe j
that there is such a place as In
dia?that there was such a per
son- as George Washington?that
there will be an eclipse of the
moon on a stated date. So also
must you and I, not because we
have discovered these things for
ourselves, but entirely on some
body else's say-so.
But religion! Haven't we soul
freedom? Can we not believe as I
we like? Well, hardly. If we!
are thinking men we must believe |
in- an intelligent, creative God. If i
we are Christians, we must be-|
lieve in humanly inexplicable
mysteries?a Trinity of a single
Divinity?a Virgin Birth?a Man
who was God?a Resurrection
from the dead?an Ascension In
to Heaven. We could not discover
these things for ourselves. We J
must believe on the say-so of
some person or some book.
And so with the Catholic and
(lis priests. The priest doe$ not,
ind cannot, create religious
truths; but he teaches them with
the same God-given authority
with which the Apostles taught
and converted the world 1900
years ago.
"Go ye, therefore, and teach all
nations . . . teaching them to ob
serve all things whatsoever I have
commanded you, and lo, I am
with you always, even unto the
end of the world.'Amen" (Matt
28:19-20, King James' Version).
And that is just what the Cath
olic priest has been doing for
nearly twenty centuries?teaching
ill nations all things whatsoever
Christ commanded; and so he
will continue to do, with the
promise of Christ being with
him, even to the end of the
world.
Must we believe our priests?
We must! Por us it would be"
unintelligent to do otherwise.
If It's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!
