THE RECORD SPEAKS . . . No serious injuries resulted, but the automobile property damage was boosted by $1,000 in two automobile wrecks in the county during the past week. Bad road conditions, caused by construction work on No. 64. were responsible for one of the accidents. The holiday season is at hand, and greater care should be ex ercised by motorists during the period. Pointing out 734 North Caro linians had been killed in auto accidents so far this year. Gov ernor Hoey today appealed to motorists to exercise greater care in driving during the holidays. ??The following tahiilatiftfjj nf f< i a comparison of the accident trend: first, by corresponding weeks in this year and last and for each year to the present time. 47th Week Comparison Accidents Inj'd Killed Dam'ge 1940 2 4 0 $1000 v 1939 210 160 Comparison Te Data / 1940 85 50 5 10.540 1939 64 58 8 11.870 Local Red Cross Chapter Pushing (hi Toward Quota (Continued from page one) Askew Jo< Gray Corey and anony mou.

While it is certain that no record acreage was planted to the crop,"in complete reports indicate that the county is producing one of the larg est crops of peanuts in its history. It is estimated that production will run between 400 and 500 thousand bags of goobers, and that the revenue will be well over a cool million dol lars The income from the goobers will not fall so terribly far below the tobacco revenue received by Martin farmers this year, it is be lieved War in Europe has virtually para yzed the cotton textile industry of ?'ranee, thus shutting off what was he second best European market for Jmted States cotton.
