Tuesday, September 19, 1933 Supporting the Schools How much support —actual, self-sicril'cing sup port—will the people at large give to the public schools this year? Unfortunately, for a number of years people have been too busy making, or trying to make, money to pay much attention to children, throwing the burden on the teacher to drag them along the best they could. Now, since fols have turned their attention from money-grubbing, it is hoped that we will all t>nd time to lend a helping hand to the youngsteis and help them along with the problems that some times are hard and hold them back. We owe youth more personal attention than we sometimes give them, and we certainly need to keep young people in the best environment possible. A Noble Organization Every American citizen who cares when somebody is in need should support the Red Cross, which is the one institution that goes everywhere. It draws no color lines, and regards no religious creed, but goes to the relief of the distressed in their hours of suf fering. When we have storms, floods, earthquakes, and conflagrations, we find the Red Cross on the spot with shelter, food, and clothing. * Every citizen should delight to hold membership , in such a noble organisation. The Problem of "Repeaters" Repeaters cost many thousands in the schools every year In William&ton last year 201 grammar-grade pupils failed to pass their work without some condition, wfrtih puts pupils back, and not only costs double but is one of the most detrimental things that has to be coped with to preserve discipline And proper or ganizaion. It crowds the classes with older boys and girls, who naturally are hard to manage because they have lost interest in their classwork. Some plan needs to be worked out to prevent so many failure in school, and, if possible, correct the cause of the trouble. If parents will keep a close watch over their children when out of school, look around the back lots, around the corners, and on. the down-town streets, and the teacher will watch them closely at school, they will find the cause of most failures, but what is the use of finding the cause unless we take steps to correct it? One Trouble With Business The Reconstruction Finance Corporation wants to lend banks money at i per cent suJLljey can lend it out to help business. > If the present status continues, such a course Will do no good, for the bankers will not lend it. They will either hoard it or buy government bonds with it. If the Government wants to help business, it looks as if it would do better by lending the money direct ly to business. While it is true that many banks have suffered by loaning money when values were declining, it now aeems that they should not feel so panic-stricken and practically stop making loans altogether. The refus * al of banks to make loans accounts to some extent for the present dullness in business. Unanimity of Opinion on Tobacco Situation Hertford County Herald. Opening prices for the 1933 tobacco crop of the bright leaf belt have produced a state of mind that is practically unanimously favorable to any sort of pro gram that seeks to give the farmer a larger return. We can remember back yonder when warehousemen in particular fought a bitter battle against a move ment to organize growers; a time when there was general division amongst all groups of the tobacco industry. The result was disaster for the attempted organization. Today, however, there is a different sort of spirit pervading the tobacco belts. There is general agree ment that something ought to be done, if humanly poaaible, to relieve the price situation with which growers were faced when their crop was put on sale. It it almost akin to heresy to throw a damper on the movement now under way. The individual who at tempts to buck the tide is courting disaaer for Mm self and bis particular end of the otbacco business. More Money Needed ,■ President Roosevelt needs to add one more thing to his recovery program, and that is more money. The arteries and veins of American business are simply empty of the circulation medium that keeps business health. The United States can well be compared to an anemic child, which has tried to keep going with, not - ing to nourish its body. When this country was do.ng only half the volume of business it is now doing, i had just as much money in circulation as it now has. If we pay more for cotton, tobacco, wheat, and po tatoes, and more for wages, we must have more money to pay with. The little money we have is too easi y locked up and hidden from the channels of business^ More Money, Mr. President, to cooperate with, and then your plans will succeed. War Clouds Gathering Over State The war clouds over the .North Carolina sales tax are still threatening, and it now looks like the next North Carolina campaign will be fought out on a basts of sales tax or no sales tax. If the anti-sales tax folks are able to organize, the greatest tax fight ever pulled «,ff in this State will be staged in Raleigh at the session of he next legis *■ ture . , , . Already,we see the skirmish beginning, with strun„ sales tax messages creeping out of Raleigh from some source, not yet positively identified. Also the Hon orable I'ete Murphy is telling the folks how nice it is (or the poor folks to pay the tax. Of course, Mr. Murphy is an experienced legislator and has much influence in the North Carolina General Assembly. He was for horse race gambling, liquor, and for the poor man to pay a major portion of the tax in the last session. The two warring elements are trying to build up sentiment, and somebody is going to be kept on the firing line until the ext political platforms are written. Time To Limit Great Estates Who caused the world war is a much discussed question among some nations. Another question of just as much importance is "Who caused the world panic?" • _ a There is little doubt but that it was those fellows we have called "the captains of industry." Compara tively speaking, it was only a few people, the great financial geniuses, who led the pace and set the traps. They sold the public all kinds of flim-flam stocks and goods of every kind, most of which had very little value. When all the surplus money in the country was gathered into the hands of this group, then the bottom fell out and the whole business structure col lapsed, carrying all the small fellows down with it. While the |>eople have their eyes open, it is a good time for the government to limit great estates, so that in the future, no individual or combination of individ uals can amass fortunes sufficient to crush and de stroy fair competition. No man can gather unto himself a great amount of wealth without taking too much toll out of the other fellow's corn, and one of the important things for Uncle Sam to look after is the size of every mans toll dish and when one gets to digging too deep into the other fellow, to cut him down. We can have no safe and satisfactory business con ditions until both sides in every deal get a fair share of the profits —or losses, as the case may be. Farmers Hold Key Sampson hidependent It is unfortunate that the government has had to take a hand in the matter of reducing the acreage planted to various crops, when to reduce the acreage means mure money for the farmers. Yet there seems to be no other way whereby the desired reduction can be brought about. Time and again acreage reduction campaigns have been waged by agricultural leaders and the press prior to planting time. When public meetings, are held, the farmers generally will vote to reduce, but when the crop has been planted, as a rule, following such cam paigns the acreage to the crop in question is increased. It has been said that the reason for this is that one farmer will figure that the others will reduce and it is a good time for him to inceas.e A majoity seem to figure that way, judging from the results of such campaigns in the past. Under the "New Deal" plan applying to acreage reduction, the farmers as individuals sign an agree- ment with the Government to reduce the acreage to the stated crops. These agreements are binding and it will be the part of folly for a farmer to try to ig nore the promise to curtail the acreage. This should mean hat the acreage reduction agreements now be- ing signed for the next two years will bear fruits. Nobody can deny the fact that one bale fo cotton which sells for 16 cents the pound is worth more to the producer than two bales at 8 cents, especially when one figures the cost of cultivating, harvesting, and ginning. The same thing applies to tobacco and oth er crops. Know this to be true, farmers who refuse to cooperate with the plan of the Government to bring about higher prices are standing in their own light. If all the farmers will sign the acreage reduction agree ments, and live up to them, then higher prices will be assured. The purpose of the movement to bring about re duced acreage to the so-called "money crops" is to benefit the far mete; and surely they should gladly cooperate unitedly in the movement. The matter has been, and still is, in the hands of the farmers. If they fail to cooperate with the movement to bring about the desired relief for themselves, the blame will raat with them. We believe the farmers of this coun ty will lend their cooperation wholeheartedly. THE ENTERPRISE &KWTOOW Mi^Hf WHICH SEU fOft LESS . THW"i CEHTfc E*CH.
