Looking Ahead
Red Cross Still
Accepting Funds
For Hungarians
Moore County has met its min
imum quota in the recent appeal
for funds to aid in Hungarian re
lief, it has been announced by
Mrs. Audrey Kennedy, executive
secretary of the Moore County
Chapter.
“This does not mean, however,
that we have stopped accepting
funds,” she said. “-The quota of
$829 was a minimum one and we
would hope, particularly in view
of the extreme need at this time,
to oversubscribe the quota by a
substantial sum.”
General Alfred M. Gruenther,
retired Supreme Allied Com
mander in Europe and president
elect of the American Red Cross,
appeared before television and
newsreel cameras Monday with
an appeal to American people in
support of the Red Cross drive
for $5,000,000 for Hungarian re
lief.
“The tragedy that has befallen
the heroic Hungarian nation is a
matter of great sadness to liber
ty-loving people everywhere,”
he said. ‘'“When I left Europe No
vember 21, a widespread cam
paign was in progress there to
help the Hungarians overcome
starvation and disease.

Everette Ray Needham of San
ford, charged with a variety of of
fenses of forgery, is in Moore
County jail today in default of
$2,000 bond.
Needham, 22, was given a hear
ing in Moore Recorder’s Court
Monday and bound over to Supe
rior Court after Judge J. Vance
Rowe found probable cause on
several of the counts.
O. W. Loving of Cameron signed
warrants charging four separate
acts of forgery by which the youth
had obtained a total of $427 from
the Vass and Carthage branches
of Carolina Bank. He is also un
der bond to answer charges in
Chatham County for obtaining a
car under suspicious circumstances
and under $500 bond in Lee Coun
ty after appealing a traffic con
viction earlier this week.
Needham was charged with for
gery in the following counts: on
July 27, as security on a 90-day
note for $200 at the Vass bank; on
August 28, as co-signer on a 30-
day note for $52 at the Vass bank;
and on September 28 ,as security
on a 30-day note for $75 at the
Carthage bank.
He had been indicted by Loving,
well-known farmer in Cameron,
for signing the name of his father,
J. R. Loving, to the notes.
O. W. Loving and his brother,
Carl, said their father, who owns
the farm which they manage for
him, is 91 years old ,in ill health
and can no longer sign his name.
They said nothing was known to
them of any of the notes until
word came from the branch banks
that payment was not being made.
They said they had withheld in
dictment for a while in coopera
tion with the banks, who were
trying to see if they could get
their money from Needham, but
“when we saw Needham’s parents
were about to get all tangled in
this mess, we felt we should act.”
The youth’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs. F. E. Needham, are tenants
on the Loving farm.
Needham was also threatened
with another warrant Monday
when a Sanford salesman came to
Carthage and said the youth had
bought a television set a few
weeks ago and had made no pay
ments on it.
