W.W. n hat'* II rong? It is really encouraging to hear a politician get up and tell about the Great State of North Carolina, its balanced agriculture, its belching smokestacks, its great school system, and its great this and that It kinder makes one feel good to live in such a great commonwealth, to have some part, even though it may be a minor one, in the development of such a great section It is equally disheartening to get back in a lit tle nook and scane the bare figures that are re leased to enlighten the people. Just recently there was issued a table showing the. per capi ta bank resources by states North Carolina, the great State that the political speaker would have us believe it to be. ranks 42 in the list, or just five places removed from the absolute bot tom. ~ Declare a dividend tomorrow and m this great State with all its vast natural resources, its cli mate and its toiling hundreds of thousands and there would be only $1114 to come from the banking world for each individual When one turns to New York where little wealth is actually created but where wealth is controlled, he sees the per capita bank resources approximating $1,767 as compared with a meas ly, shameful $124 in this, great State of ours It is really disheartening and causes one to wonder what's wrong fiuucrifiiin In The Hank* Surviving the obstacles thrown in their path by a-bighor etmrt and their own representatives,? farmers are now facing a greater obstacle m their march for agricultural freedom. Dissention among their own ranks is said to be developing, and unless their differences can be smoothed over and ironed out collectively then the farmer is headed for the same old rut where there is no liberty, freedom or the means to a decent living The dissention will appear as the new 1940 acreage quotas are announced. The situation will then be aggravated by outside groups who for the very simple reason that the acreage to certain crops is being reduced in another sec tion will want to enter upon the cultivation of those crops that were foreign to them in the past-in their own section. The peanut farmer who will have his acre age reduced under the program wilhvery like ly make every effort to go into the business of producing tobacco. The tobacco farmer who, by the way, has already lost close to fifty per cent of his old acreage, might want to go into the business of producing peanuts. If and when these groups start attacking each other, the farm program and farming itself is slated for tough sledding It must be remembered that the farmer who makes the sacrifices to build up a market that he might enjoy the fruits of his own labor in fair measure, is the farmer to get first consid eration. If a farmer foregoes fifty per cent-of his acreage, more or less, that market prices might hold to a figure akin to parity, then he is entitled to first consideration. It is not fair and just for a farmer to create that market and be cause he has created a market other farmers try to come in and enjoy the rewards of such ac tion. If a favorable market had not been budd ed by the old tobacco or old peanut growers then other farmers would not care to enter in to the production of peanuts or tobacco. And it is a poor come to pass when production must be narrowed by starvation prices when it is possible to advance and maintain a planned program that will offer the farmer a fair re turn for his laboi and the labor of his wife and children If the dissention stirring slowly under the surface at this time bursts forth in volume, about the only thing of any value on the farm will be the food the farmer and h.s family eats and the feed for his livestock. As far as a mar ket is concerned, there'll be places for farm products but there'll be little remuneration for the farmer in exchange Ituliffrrrnt I'uhlir Opinion Plagued by large-scale gambling for years, the citizens of several mid-western cities final ly recognized the damaging effects of the ille gal practice and almost overnight those citizens brought pressure upon the authorities to clean up the rackets The change was brought about solely by public opinion. It has been the rule rather than the exception for law-enforcement to follow in the wake of public opinion. Indifference on the part of the general public has lowered tlif efficiency of enforcement agencies and indirectly aided the cause of crime There is a marked indifference to the laws throughout the country. Often those who cri ticise the action of the other fellow turn around and act indifferent to law enforcement when they themselves are directly involved. Speed ing and reckless driving are deplored day in and day out. but it is 110 rare thing for those de ploring such dangerous practices to turn around and drive recklessly and speed through busy streets and school zones. Often the activities of the courts come in for '?riticism, but in more cases than one the critic w ill take the stand and swear to a lie for a friend or even an acquaintance. -Whett-p?4Uw--?pmhwi.H.inr'"rN it strict "hscrv ance of the traffic laws and demands the courts to mete out due punishment, when the gener al public abides bv the laws and participates in the enforcement of those laws, then, and not before, will hazards be lessened and open vio lations! of all law and order be curbed. We criticise the driver who speeds through our streets or the driver who ignores the little stop signs at street intersections and pays 110 at tention to traffic regulations along the road, but we. as motorists, crash the stop signs, speed through the streets and go helter skelter and with the inherent feeling that the. law was not meant for us. Just as public opinion demanded a change 111 those mid-western cities, publyj opinion can de mand a change right here at home. Parachutes According to*a-report from the U.
