Child Labor (Contniued from rage one) It will be permissable for merchants or employers to stag ger the hours of employment, ie., stagger the hours of employ ment, allowing a p nson under 18 years of age to work the nine or eight hours at intervals dur ing all hour day period. The new law will be enforced by the State Board of Labor rssisted by sheriffs, and police of various muncipalities. For vio lation of the child labor laws, the penalty is a fine of up to ?"i0 for the first offence. The rbove does not apply to agi'ijjiture or any of its branch es, although children working in agi ieultura! fields must have a permit and r:u;t ba under the supervision and direction of par ents or jr.:.: Social Security (Continued r.om p'ie me) route.; must bt clearly defined. Children under 16 years of age cannot work before 6 A. M. or after 7 o'clock at night, where the bread winner has died or abscounded, will share in an annual amount for the cur rent year of approximately $15, 000. The estimated average per child in Carteret will be $1.50 per month, it being understood that where there is but one child the amount will be a fraction more and where there are sever al children the amount will be a little less. In Carteret it is estimated that up to 350 children will share in the program and up to 450 adults. At the present time the Carteret County Welfare Department are busily engaged in reviewing the various cases presented. It was stated at the County Welfare Department today that those on 'outside poor list" or those who have been receiving checks from the poor fund of the county will be given fir.-s consideration in old rira assistant"-' and child dependent assist ance. It will be around August 1, I .'fore other applicants are considered, it was stated. IN WASHINGTON (Continued from pavte one) and there are many ideus as to how they are to be found. In other words, what is to be the concepts of Government in the future? Those who look for guidy.u-e in the events of .he past a:-. . ;' course, studying the trt.-.ds of the bygone days. For example, the Congres sional leaders of the past, many of whom vo regard as outstanding statesmen, were just as fearful for the f:;tu:e in 1837, as some of our people a.e about what lies ahead be yond 1937. But the developments of the last hundred years have amply proven that the fears expressed in 1837 were unfounded. There is every reason for hope that the fears of today are equally as unfounded. True, problems of today are per haps greater than ever before. No community nor state is self suffi cient. The price which the Virginia and North Carolina farmer will get for his products is affected by in- Girl Scouts (Continued from pa . ' very grateful to Messrs.

The ability of the manufac turers of automobiles and refriger ators in Indiana and Michigan to sell their products is affected by condi tions in Georgia and Tennessee. Emergencies in California, Iowa an Florida may curtail the supply of food in New York. In other words, whether we wish to admit it or not, we have come to the point where the Federal Government must help to find the solution to problems the states cannot solve alone. How? Find ing the answer is what causes legis lative uncertainty and slow move ment of legislative machinery. Too much importance depends on taking the right course. Nevertheless, there is growing real ization that something must be done about regulating the forces that have widened the gap between wealth and numbers. There is also realization that some of the programs and poli cies already tried must be reshaped in the light of the experience de veloped. The subject of highways, one of importance to every citizen, offers a splendid example of changing con cepts of Government responsibility over a long period of years. At the cutset, roads were built by town, ships and communities. Later, fin. ancial aid was given to counties by states. .New Jersey being the first in 1891. By 1903, eleven states we giving aid to counties and ten yeari later, forty-two states were aiding, counties. But even then highways were ing built around centers of popula. tion and not so much to connect those centers at any considerable distance from ecah other. The need for in. terstate roads was beginning to be felt. Because of this need there arose a strong public demand that the United States Government should contribute financially toward road building, as it had done a hundred years before. CAN TOMATOES Eighty five cases of ripe tomatoes were canned by George W. Huntley at the Beaufort Cannery today, the first to be packed in this method so far this season. Before the season passes he expects to can several thousand cases. Down at Marshall berg the Crockett Cannery will soon start packing ripe tomatoes. The capacity of the Marshallberg plant is 2,000 cases per day. For Independence Insure No man can feel independent unless his LIFE and his PROPERTY, his home, buildings and car are rully insured.
