ESTABLISHED 1899 Superior Court In Recess After Brief Session on Monday Number of Canes Are Settled And Removed from the Doeket Yesterday ? Catching up and going ahead of the calendar, Judge W. H. S. Bur gwyn. presiding over the "special term" of Martin County Superior Court, yesterday afternoon ordered a recess until tomorrow morning Without the aid of the jury of the court, litigants effected agreements in at least half a dozen cases, the trial of others requiring only a few minutes of the court's time. Starting out with what appears to be a "weak" docket, the court at tracted very few persons yesterday other than the litigants, lawyers, jurymen and witnesses. Judge Bur gwyn convened the term promptly at 10 o'clock, heard various motions and cleared his desk at 3 o'clock un til tomorrow morning following a short noon-day recess. Proceedings in the court: Riddick Griffin took nothing in his case against Carl Griffin A divorce was granted Lillian An drews in her case brought against DeWitt Andrew The action was based on charged of adultery.

The following cases were settled by agreement: Fertilizer Company against Jenkins; Fertilizer Company against Honeycutt, Fertilizer Com pany against Hall, and Fertilizer Company against Blackman. No judgment had been filed in the cases early today A settlement was also effected in the rent case brought by Smithwick against Walters. The case of Town of Williamston | against Cunningham was continued until next week for trial. After being postponed several times and after being tried once, the $10,000 damage suit of Mitchell against Hall will apparently be tried Thursday of this week. At the sug gestion of counsel, the court ordered a special venire of eighteen men drawn for handling the case The names of the special jurors are: E. W Gardner, of Jamesville Town ?hip; M. T.

Judge Burgwyn will return at that time after spending the recess at his home in Woodland. ? Law Now Checking Draft Delinquents That draft board authorities mean business and nothing but business was evidenced here yesterday when the names of four registrants were turned over to the county sheriff with instructions to check up on the delinquents. Questionnaires, mailed the four registrants on Monday of last week, had not been returned to the board at noon yesterday The sheriff was directed by local draft board officials to call upon William Degraffread, Jamesville; Jodie Gaynor, Williamston; John Henry Taylor, Bethel, R.F.D., and Hubert Evans, Jr., Robersonville, ana learn why their questionnaires had not been returned within the five day allotted period. Gaynor was con tacted here later in the afternoon and it was learned that his questionnaire had not reached him, that his em ployer had been sick and the mail was piling up on the company's desk Hie board will consider the excuse at its meeting tonight. If an exten sion is granted, Gaynor will not be subject to an indictment by the Unit ed States District Attorney at Wilm ington. Any registrant who does not comply with the regulations is sub ject to indictment. All of the four men failing to get their questionnaires returned are colored. Up until noon today approximate ly 200 of the 400 questionnaires mailed out since last Monday had been returned. The returns are well ahead of the schedule, many of the registrants getting their question naires filled in and returned within two or three days.

Four County Men Will Answer Call To Service Next Month Four Mantn County men ? two while and two colored ? will be drafted into the armed forces of the United States next month, it was learned from unofficial but reliable sources today The call for two | white men will be answered by vol unteers. Draft Board Chairman R. H Goodmon announcing today that Ellis Clifton Wynne and Leslie Worth Pierce are now in direct line to represent the county in the first round-up of man-power. The selec tion of the first two colored men will be effected at a meeting of the board tonight when there'll have to be some rooting done to fill the quo ta for Negroes According to reports reaching here the two white men will leave here on December 9th. The two colored men are slated to leave on the 13th ?and that date falls on a Friday The men will go to Fort Bragg. VICE PRESIDENT The actual conscription of white men in this county will hardly be necessary during the course of the next month or two, a report from the draft board office today stating that the names of additional volun teers are being added to the list de siring to enter the service immed iately. Johnnie B. Harrell, son of Mrs. Annie Lee, entered the service a few days ago. boosting the list of volunteers in the draft-age group to seven. While the reserve list will meet early quotas, it is quite likely that heavy calls on the draft ma chinery will be in order between the early part of next year and July during which period a quota of 147 men is to be filled in this county. So far not a single colored man has volunteered for service, but Booker T Bradley said yesterday that he was willing and ready to go when they called him. James C. Manning, supenn dent of the Martin County schools, was unanimously elect ed vice president of the north eastern district of the North Carolina Education Association in session at Greenville last Friday evening. Increased Tobacco Parity Provided in Congressional Act Flamiupaii Art Will Hardly lir Applicable To tlir Current Crop Prospects for the tobacco farmer were materially brightened yester day when the Klannagan Bilt, In creasing the parity price on the com modity, was passed by the House of Representatives and sent to the President for his signature. While efforts are being made to have the provisions of the act apply to the 1940 crop, there is some doubt if it will be placed into effect before the next season. Ii Is roughly estimated thai the" act will up the income of Martin County tobacco growers by approxi mately $100,000 and possibly more. The bill was passed by the Senate some time ago, and only by a hard struggle led by the Farm Bureau was the proposal saved and finally passed by the House. While action comes too late to af fect materially this year's markets, tobacco belt congressmen hold high hopes that it will prove highly bene ficial in the coming season. Two ma jor benefits may be anticipated First, the Commodity Credit Cor poration will be able to extend more liberal loans to growers on their crops, and Second, tobacco is virtually cer tain to share in parity payment ben efits if they are made available un der the same terms of the legisla tion now in effect. If President Roosevelt gives his approval to the bill, it will, in effect, increase the parity price of flue cured tobacco from 18.5 cents to 22.4 cents. This gain will be achieved by changing the base period or calcu lating parity price rom the 1909-14 period to the five years extending from 1934 to 1939. ? (Continued on page six) SHIFTING That Martin County draft reg istrants are shifting from one place to another in fairly large numbers is evidenced in the changes of addresses filed with the draft board since the regis tration a month ago. Possibly forty young men In the 21-tt sge group have moved out of the county, and a greater number has moved to new locations with in Ihc Mxintv ? Well advised that they shall keep the board informed as to their latest address, the shifting registrants are sending In the changes even If they moved from one home to an adjoining one or If they are moving jaat around Incomplete Reports Indicate Red Cross Roll Call Is Lagging| Uhh Than $70 Reported To Date By CainvaHHers in This Chapter Incomplete reports from Mrs. J. ?, A. Eason. chairman of the Bed Cross I membership campaign here, indicate j that the annual roll call is lagging in this chapter. Less than $70 had been reported early today by the mem bership canvassers, but it was point- J ed out that hardly more than half of the solicitors had completed their work and filed their reports. While it is fairly certain that the Martin County chapter will chalk up a new record this year as com pared with the work a year ago, it is fairly apparent that the response will hardly measure up to the in creased need over a world-wide front of suffering and want. The drive will continue through Thanksgiving, and our people arc urged not to wait for a solicitor but to contribute to the organization at its local headquarters in the Branch Banking and Trust Company Names of members already re ported to the local chairman follow: H.

Peanut Crop Moves To Storage Houses In Large Quantities Nearly 10,000 Bajg* Placed In Storage Here in Than a Week The delivery of peanuts, delayed during much of last week by heavy rains and a suspension of picking activities, is again gaining momen tum, reports from the market here | today stating that almost ten thous and bags had been placed in govern ment storage and that cleaners and independent buyers are handling large quantities daily. Gurkin and Griffin at the New Carolina Ware house reported today between four and five thousand bags stored with the government. Barnhill. Gurganus and Corey at the New Farmers Ware house, the other government storage J house here, state that their deliver ies are nearing the 4,000-bag mark | today. The open market, while a bit in different in the face of one of this J section's largest crops, is picking the cream of the crop, literally speak-1 ing. and prices paid by those con cerns compare with the government's | price schedule. A reliable report gained here this morning states that 75 per cent or more of the deliveries to the govern ment storage houses is grading 65 per cent meat or better, giving the grower the top price of three and one-quarter cents. So far no grades have been reported by one of the storage houses below the 2 80 grade. Increased deliveries are anticipat ed by the storage houses during the remainder of this week. Pickers, idle during the past several days, are now operating again and a marketing rush is expected by independent buy ers as well as the operators of gov ernment storage houses. Late estimates indicate that 90 per cent of the crop along the Martin Pitt boundary has been picked and sold A large portion of the crop in the Robersonville area is reported sold. In this immediate section hard ly more than 40 per cent of the crop has been picked, but with the return of fair weather picking operations are likely to be advanced on a large scale during the next few days. County Man Awaits Word from Relatives In War-Torn Britain Uncertain Life Bravely Ac rrpiril by Uiitflinh, Rerenl IvCtter Report* Assured in a letter only a few days ago that everyone was well and that everything was all right. Elder E. C Stone, of Griffins Township, to day anxiously awaits later word ] from his native Coventry, England Just a short time before a devastat ing German raid killed and injured an estimated thousand people in his native home-town, Mr. Stone was advised by his sister that life was going on there about as usual de spite repeated air raid warnings and! the uncertainty of life, limb and | property under the German raiders. As far as it could be learned here today, Mr. Stone has heard nothing | from his loved ones across the ocean. The industrial city of Coventry was wrecked and almost leveled to the ground last week by angry German bombers in a raid lasting more than 10 hours. The county man does not know whether relatives, well and as happy as possible under the condi tions a week ago, aer living today I (C ntinued on page six) Rourul Up Pant-due Personal Taxes In County This Week Issuing a warnina to owner* that their properties would be confiscated if their personal taxes were not paid at once, the county sheriff-tax collector to day reported a pleasing response. Several hundred dollars were paid into the county treasury last week when two hundred or more accounts, averaging less than 13, were settled. It is estimated that consider ably leas than 17,000 of the ini tial 19,000 insolvent list remains unpaid at this time. At the rate payments are now being made, it is predicted that the insolvent list for the tax year 1939 will be the smallest in years. No prop erty has actually been confis cated, but papers are being pre pared and It Is likely that the of ficers will levy upon certain holdings before the month Is spent. Refusing to accept a settlement of the 1919 accounts the early part of this month, the county commissioners are expected to relieve the sheriff of the 1939 books at their regular meeting next month. The drive for per sonal property taxes was order ed by the county board at its last Draft Board To Start Classification Work Registrants Return 200 Questionnaires In Countv To Date Four Mm To \ii*v*t?r (.all From (anility Oil Dwein her 9th and 13th By late this evening four of Mar tin County's young men?two white and two colored?will have been se lected for a one-year training period in the armed forces of the United States. The Martin County Draft Board is meeting tonight in its of fices in the Lawyers' Building for its first classification work The meeting is the first regular one of the board's program in connection with final plans for drafting this county's quota of manpower for the nation's defense, the several other meetings having been held in con nection with setting up a working organization. At noon today. 200 questionnaires had been returned to the board of fices, and it is likely that a greater part of the men represented will be classified by the board at its meet ing tonight There are four main classifications, but attention will cen ter for the present on those men who fall into the No. 1 classification group especially those with a Class 1-A rating. Under this classification are five ratings as follows: (a) Man fit for military service; (b) men fit for limited military service; (c) mem ber of land or naval forces of the United States; (d) students fit for general military service to be avail i able not later than July 1, 1941. and (e) students fit for limited military service not later than July 1. 1941. The Class II group will include those men who are holding jobs nee essary for national defense. There are comparatively few men in this county who will likely fall into this classification Class 111, including those men w ilTi one or more dependents, will cover | a majority of the eases. There are six ratings under Class IV, and it is agreed that few if any men in this group will ever be call i?d. The ratings under Classification IV are, as follows (a) men who have completed service training with the armed forces including such men as Dalburgh Riddick, of Ever etts, who just recently returned from the army after serving so many years, (b) officials deferred by law, including legislators, judges, public' health officials and others; (e) non declarant alienor one who is not and deos not plan to become a citizen of the United States; (d) minister of re ligion or divinity student; (c) rnn ?cientiou* objectors who will be called only in cases of national im portance of necessity, and (f) those men who are physically, mentally, or morally unfit for militaiv serv ice. In classifying the first two hun dred men, the board will possibly place in Class 1 a number of men who will later be changed t?j a lower classification. It is possible ll'.at cei ? tain defects wid be discovered when the registrant is subjected to a physi cal examination. If he has some physical or other type of defect, the registrant will possibly be rated in the "F" classification in Group IV So, it does not necessarily mean that when a man is placed in the No. 1 group that he will be ipducted into service. All men falling into the Group I classification will be directed to re port for a physical examination in the offices of I)r. J. S. Rhodes in Wil liamston. These instructions will be placed in the mails tomorrow for a limited number to report immediate ly. These men will be required to furnish their own transportation to and from the doctor's office, but when the government calls them, they immediately become charges of the government with all expenses paid, including those for travel, meals and clothing (v;?11 ?

Move Started To 1 Encompass Balkan i Nations By Hitler ? I.nil K<-|>ort<-<l On War Front* Kxrrpl in Orwr Today A general lull <>n most of the Ku ropeun war fronts was reported to day as Axis diplomats conferred with authorities from several Bal kail nations in an apparent of fort to bring the Utile countries into the Axis orbit. It is believed in some quarters that the present lull is the quiet that comes before the storm, that possibly the Axis powers are making ready to strike at Britain, or Gibraltar. 01 the Suez Canal. Leading diplomats from several of the' Balkan countries are confer ring with Axis leaders in Vienna But Turkey and Yugoslavia were not invited to attend the parleys that are being held there The bright spot in the new diplomatic move is semiofficial word from Turkey pointing out that the Turks will not fight it Hitler and his gang start for the Dardanelles. Turkey ?inti mates that she will resist invasion i attempts even if Russia stands back and yawns. It is fairly certain that Hitler is pleading with Bulgaria for permis sion to send his armies across that country and to help Mussolini's bat tered armies along the Albanian Greek border, ft is along the Greek border that the tempo of the war is being maintained today The Ital tuns are attempting a counter-at tack to save one of their main bases The Greeks continue their advances over a fairly wide front into Al bania, and reports state that the Al banians ale offering every possible aid to the brave and daring Greeks Unofficial reports state that the Axis are now building the frame work for a fierce attack on Britain in the Mediterranean, that German forces are being amassed just back of the Channel ports, indicating that another attempted: invasion is beOjg considered In the Far Fast, Japan is push mg its propaganda campaign against the United SJUites big posters, free ly distributed in the main cities, urging the Japanese to prepare against this country While Britain today is enjoying peace in its skies, the need for more American help is recognized in this country. It is being talked that a movement is being considered to have the neutrality act amended to permit United States ships to carry non-war materials to Kngluiid. The need for more destroyers lias also been recognized, and it is possible thai the United Stall's is making it possible for Britain to call in some of licr destroyers, by taking over pa trol duties no this side of the Atlan tic There was the incident involv ing four Gertttme ships off?thr~rrerst~~ of Mexico a few days ago One of them was scuttled and the other three hurried hack to port when they mistook American destroyers fpr those of the British Mussolini talked to his war--weary people yesterday, apologizing for the reverses m Greece and bitterly de nying reported damages to Ins fleet at Taranto.

W itucsscs Visited Here Early Sunday i Jehovah's Witnesses, religious sect | that has attracted much attention in j eastern Carolina in recent weeks, used their high-powered salesman ship in an attempt to effect a distri bution of their literature here Sun ' day morning Their visit, described | by some as over-bearing, was toler ated without incident,trot The sate of the literature was said to have been limited. Pushing into a sick bed room in a local home, one of the Witnesses virtually demanded the purchase of one of the leaflets. The husband of tin- home offered to purchase the lit erature to rid the premises of the Witness, but when, he learned that i it was the literature of Jehovah's Witnesses he kindly asked her to keep the money, but clear out of his home and take every page of the literature with her. Lengthy conversations were heard at the front doors of other homes, j but the local people tolerated the intrusions wtihout complaint. ' Several years ago an old gentle I man, meek and humble, came to see me and quietly offered the re ligious literature for sale," a local man said lust evening. "I bought 50 cents worth from the old gentleman ! and thought nothing oi-it. But the | Witnesses last Sunday, 111 my opin I ion, can only create trouble," the lo | cal man continued. ? /.1 nal Reaident III At Home On Main Street Mr. W A Jameii, well-known local citizen, continues ill at hia home on West Main Street here.
