Governor Stevenson Pays Pop Call
Governor Adlai Stevenson of Illinois flew in to Southern Pines
last week and spent a short while visiting with his sister, Mrs. Ernest
L. Ives, shown with him above. He was on his way to join his three
sons for a brief vacation in Florida.
Asked by a Pilot reporter for a statement on the McCarthy sena
torial investigation, the governor was emphatic in his condemnation
of such tactics. “It’s one of the njost outrageous performances ever
pulled off,’’ he said. Governor Stevenson said he agreed with other
public leaders that the attack on the State department was motivated
purely by “politics” and that the comndunist angle had little to do
with it, though he did not minimize this issue.
Governor Stevenson said that he had hoped to come back to the
Sandhills for a real visit later in the spring, but he doubted that he
would be able to take another trip so soon.
Antic Wind Blows Dust And Branches,
Tumbles Treetop On Shaw House Roof
The tail end of a windstorm
sweeping up from the southwest
caused high winds over North
Carolina Monday of last week,
which in the Sandhills produced
a sandstorm looking like some
thing out of a desert movie.
Roads leading in and out of
town were beclouded with the fly
ing dust particles. In town, dead
limbs were wrenched from many
trees.
The top of the noble old syca
more in front of the Shaw House
blew off and crashed down on the
roof of the century-old cottage re
stored by the Moore County His
torical society. A hole was knock
ed in the roof and a number of
the hand-hewn cypress shingles
were displaced. On being noti
fied of the disaster by phone,
Howard Burns, streets superin
tendent, sent the town crew down
to effect temporary repairs. Work
is going on this week to restore
the roof to its former beauty.
Antenna Torn Down
The antenna belonging to Col.
C. H. Burkhead’s “ham” radio set,
a special apparatus installed at
some cost and difficulty at his
home on Ridge street, was torn up
by the blow.
The wind made a special haz
ard of a grass fire which started
Monday about noon behind a
house on West Pennsylvania ave
nue, between Stephens and
Gaines streets, and in a few sec
onds had raced across the back
lot. The Southern Pines volun
teer firemen, arriving fast, had a
job to do to stop the blaze before
it reached one of the frame homes
close by. The truck could not
get anywhere close and they
worked with two Indian fire-
pumps (manually opersfted) plus
rakes and hoes to^get the fire out
in double-quick time.
The only building damaged was
a lone “Chic Sale” standing in the
path of the flames.
Forest Fire
That night, an alarm brought
the firemen rushing to the aid of
the N. C. Forest Service crew in
fighting a large fire which swept
several acres of field and forest
on Morganton road west, just
south of the city limits. Wind
blowing hard in the direction of
l^est Southern Pines constituted
a serious threat. The fire, how
ever, was stopped in a fight which
lasted from 8:30 until about 11
o’clock. 1

Poole On Council
Protesting Action
Against A & P
C. D. Matthews of Hamlet, J.
Hawley Poole of West End and M.
Edmund Aycock of Laurel Hill
represented North Carolina on the
National Peach Council which
adopted a resolution opposing the
anti-trust lawyer’s suit against the
A & P Food stores because the ac
tion “endangers American busi
ness generally.”
Matthews and Poole were pres
ent as directors of the council,
with Aycock as alternate. j
In the resolution adopted at
Washington, D. C., during the
council’s ninth annual conference,
A & P and the Atlantic Commis
sion company, its produce-buying
affiliate, were described as “con
cerns which have served us and
customers well.”
Criticizing the suit, the council
said it felt “such a precedent en
dangers American business gener
ally, and especially other large'
concerns now operating effective
ly in the marketing and process
ing of farm products.”
The resolution also expressed
the council’s appreciation to dis
tributors and retailers (both
chains and independents) for their
aids to production and marketing.
Twenty-two states had repre-
sentati'fes listed as directors or
alternates on the conference pro
gram.

cleaning tip: Use ladders to wash

Most of the 1949 accident toll
was made up of one or two-death
accidents. The National S2tfety
Council says that only three ca-
tastrophies caused as many as 50
deaths each.
