Mr. W. C. Watson, inspector from

of trades except agricultural and do

ed by said minor on each day of the

There is widespread agreement

whether it be called uncertainty or
by some other name, is primarily due
to the fact that we have reached a
nother period of national readjust

large measure, on the course that will
be taken. How far shall the Fed

Fame of Carteret
Flowers Spreading
The fame of Carteret flowers
is spreading. Last week in New
York City the National Library
Association held its annual con
vention. The huge banquet hall
; was decorated with a variety
of Carteret county grown flow
ers from the farm of H. B.
Avery. Miss Dorothy Avery is
a member of the Library Asso
ciation. The fertile soil of East Car
teret county has been widely
acclaimed during the past few
years as suitable for growing
flowers. Each day for weeks
large shipments of many spec
ies of flowers have left here by
railway express. The flower
growing industry, is fast be
coming a 'big industry' in
Carteret county.

Although Roy Eubanks, ace photo

there is more truth than poetry in the
sub-caption beneath the cut. Had
not the National Association of Aud

plume hunters some 40-years ago,
women would have continued wear
ing aigrettes as chapeau decorations
and within a few years the demand
would have exausted the supply. That

birds, would have become extinct

live Today
SOCIAL SECURITY
Only the needy applicants
will share in the Old Age and
Childe Dependent assistance
which becomes effective in Car
teret and and other counties of
North Carolina today. "This
Social Security program," says
F. R. Seeley," should not ue
confused with any Townsend
Plan and emphatically, it is not
an old age pension." Mr. Seeley
gave the following facts relative
to Carteret county.
The old age assistance to the
needy of Carteret this year will
be between thirty-five and forty
thousand dollars. From present
indications, it appears that there
are so many applicants who will
be accepted, that the net aver
age per accepted applicant will
be only about $7 or $8 per
bonth.
The Social Security Program
may not be thoroughly organiz
ed for at least two years and
at that time the monthly allow
ances in all probabilities will be
increased.

anyone under 16 years of age

Welfare Department Is
Being Swamped With
Applications
COUNTY BOARD ACTING
IN ADVISORY CAPACITY
The State's Social Security pro
gram becomes operative today, ac
cording to an announcement made
early this week by Mrs. W. T. Best,
Commissioner of the State Board of
Charities and public Welfare,
through Mrs. W. B. Aycock, director
of the County Organization. The
newly-formed board of Carteret,
named during early June consists of
Fred R. Seely, the state appointee;
A. Grady Willis, Atlantic appointed
by the county commissioners and Dr.
Frank Hall of Morehead City, the
third appointee. These board mem
bers will assist in the administration
of the program in this county.
They will also serve in an advisory
capacity to Mrs. George Henderson,
superintendent of public welfare in
Carteret, aiding her in developing
policies and plans. At the present
time the Carteret Welfare Depart
ment and similiar departments in
each of the 100 counties in the State
are investigating applicants for Old
Age Assistance and aid to Dependent
Children. The county Board of Wel
fare must also pass upon applicancts
approved, which in turn will also
furnish any application requested by
the State Board of Welfare and
Charities. '
There has been much mis-understanding
about the Social Security
program which will be governed by
the Welfare Department and Welfare
Board in Carteret. It will take, it is
believed, quite some time for the
people to understand the program,
throughly, but every effort is being
made to give every applicanct com
plete consideration and all informa
tion requested or sought.
The terms of office for the County
Board of Welfare follows: State Ap
pointee, until May 1938; Commis--sioners'
appointee until May 1939
and the third until May 1940.
