February 9. /9I0. 4 I'uzzlr The puul.li->- situation in North Carolina pie sents a rather peculiar puzzle Agricultural an thonties point out that this State is not produc ing its poultry and egg needs. Despite the re ported shortage on North Carolina farms, prices for the big food items are at a low point Adequate supplies can be shipped in from oth er states, and possibly market prices are held to a low figure bv those shipments But while North Carolina is importing poultry and eggs tarmers in this section of the State are shipping out poultry and eggs The business just doesn't rr.al". And agricultural uautra cannot L* taken sor lously when they urge farmers to raise more chickens "when the market prices range from ten to thirteen cents a pound How They I to 11 Eastern Carolina farmers with their wide level fields and a wide-range diversification have often wondered how western Carolina far mers manage to live It's a settled fact that west ern farmers, as a whole, enjoy a better living | than thoi.i?in the oavtern section of tin Stub ? And it has been a puzzle to understand how the mountain tillers of the soil could do so welj wjth nil!' flllll III III., m.n11iiI-ii? i mil flu, ultwij I in the valley. Glancing through a recent issue of a western Carolina paper, we saw a long list of names un der a small opening lead At first we thought every school young'un in the county had met the honor roll requirements to get his name in the list. Closer observation revealed the names ! of several hundred farmers who had applied for limestone and phosphate shipments in an ef fort to better their lands. Up until a few days ago, two Martin Coun ty farmers had applied for some of the soil building material. Possibly the big puzzle does not center around the western fanner and how he makes his liv ing after all. The puzzle is centered around the eastern farmer and why he doesn't make a liv tng >o Apology \ ceded There's been much said about the cold wea ther in the Sunny South. It's all right to explain Oldi such cold spells as the one experienced re cently are rare, but no apology is needed. In fact, things are coming to a pretty pass when one section has to apologize to another section ..i"r God's weather?_ ? ?? \ I hum To Hun a Tact* Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, rapped for stating that those who desert the farmer will be held to account, recognizes a ba sic change in agricultural America today. And we admire him for that stand Then- was a time when the farmer was kick ed from the table and nothing was heard from the farmer Conditions have changed, and agri culture with its organized ranks can be expect ed to return measure for measure. If is time to get down to basic facts and drag those facts into the open. The time is nut fur distant when farmer and I a bore i will be looking to Washington for an accounting of all tlip things that have been done and of all the things that are to be done in the name of a people's government. Hunincss Should Slop W /lining Tabor. H W Prentiss, Jr . new president of the Na tional Association of Manufacturers, tells the newspapers that Uncle Sam's budget "may be -iinaly buljiiu d" without an iiiucjso in taxes, ami that all that utuhda between the unenipluy ed nd lucrative jobs is "the lack of sympathy for business" displayed by those in power in Washington. Mr Prentiss is president of a cork company, but the newspapers always reverentially refer to him its "a scholar". He may be a scholar, but it is unfortunate that he uses his edudition to convince business men they are the victims of "New Deal" persecution, and that the nation's financial troubles may be met bv a mere turn of the wrist. ?Tin bm m that duiing the last seven years the Roosevelt administration has done more for business than it has for either the farmers -or the workers -To prove that, it is~ot#y=neccs=? sary to consider the condition of business when Roosevelt came in, in March, 1933, and its con dition today. Mr. Prentiss' own corporation would probably afford a fine example. Roosevelt has done much for the farmers and the workers, and they are grateful. But busi ness. which was 011 its knees frantically begging for help rn 1933, and got it in generous measure, continues to whine. Scholarly Mr. Prentiss should take a more enlightened attitude. ?
