Renewing Drive On Illicit Business Bobbing up here and there in the county during the illness of ABC Of ficer J. H. Roebuck, the Illicit liquor manufacturing business is now fac ing a renewed attack, according to a report coming from the officer yes terday. Hardly recovered from an appen dicitis operation, the officer with as sistants, has wrecked several plants in recent days, and if he has no re lapse the raids will continue in an effort to curb an attempted come back by the illicit operators. Friday night near Dardens officers wrecked a plant and poured out 100 gallons of beer. Sunday afternoon, the raiders wrecked a plant on the Martin-Beaufort line near Sweet Home Church and captured a 100 gallon capacity kettle. The opera tors had just completed a "run" and the fire under the boiler was still smoking. Yesterday afternoon Wheeler Smith, colored, was arrested by Dep uty Roy Peel as he (Smith) was walking to the plant with a copper kettle on his back, making ready to start operations. A second man was at the plant but he escaped. The offi cers confiscated the manufacturing equipment and poured out 1,400 gal lons of beer.

Some time ago she was hurt when a horse-drawn cart in which she was riding was struck by an automobile while she was going home from Williamston. A little ov er a year ago she was forced from her old home in the islands section of Williams Township by high wa ter. She continued to contribute to her support and even extended aid to others. Martin County Will Hardly Measure Up To All Expectations Committee Visiting Farmers To Give Allotments, I)is enss Defense Urogram Plans for the 1942 farm defense program are being carried direct to Martin County farmers this week by members of the community commit tees who are also releasing the 1942 allotments for cotton, peanuts and tobacco. Early reports are that this countv will hardlv measure un to all the defense requirements. While far mers have and are expressing a will ingness to cooperate in the program, the reports rtrrte that they are asking information about prices, guarantees Asked to plant 11,000 acres of pea- j nuts in addition to their regular al lotments. the early reports indicate that the surplus acreage will "hard7" ly exceed 4.500 acres. Agricultural authorities explained that the 11,000 acres would over-tax the land, and asked that the amount be reduced to 8,000 acres. It is possible that about half of that acreage will be planted to peanuts for oil. Reports from the office of the county agent today stated that no accurate esti mate on the surplus plantings for oil could be had on the few scattered returns coming in following the com mittee members' visits, that a great er participation in the food for de fense program could possibly be ex pected in other areas. Out of the first twelve farmers questioned in pne township, two said they could not plant land to peanuts for oil. One agreed to plant a lone acre for oil. Seven agreed to plant two acres each. One said he would plant three acres and another said he would plant four acres for oil. No check on other plantings could be had. but it is believed that a siz able increase will follow in the acre age to be planted to soybeans. The farmers had little to say about in creased milk production, but there is a fairly definite trend toward an increase in poultry and eggs. Possi bly 45-cent eggs will support that trend for ihe present, at least. ~~ Participation in the farm defense program is entirrly votuntary. If the farmers do'not see their way clear to .plant surplus acres to peanuts, soy i beans and other designated crops and cooperate with other features of the i plan there is absolutely nothing that I any one can do ajxiut it. The situation is being explained I to the farmers, and it is entirely up (Continued on pa((o six) Prison Chaplain Issues Challenge r Speaking to a religious group here last Sunday evening, Rev Lawrence A Watts, head of the religious pro gram for the North Carolina State Prison System, pleaded for the aid of the general public in rehabilita tion of those young men and women who have paid their debts to society in the prisons of our State The speaker, offering an interest ing review of the penal system and describing conditions in some of the prison units as tragic, declared that few persons were jailed for stealing out of necessity "They have not had the proper moral training in the home, the Sunday school or the church,"? the chaplain declared. "There are three worlds in society today," Rev. Watts explained. "One of these worlds knows nothing about the Bible. The second knows about the Bible but is indifferent to its teachings. The third is one in which the faithful few are striving to leave a better posterity for others who fol low," he said, pointing out that most of the prisoners comes from the first and second groups. The minister expressed an abiding faith in those- unfortunates who are paying their debts to society. "Out of the 9,000 persons in the prisons of our State, I sincerely believe all but about 200 can be depended upon to contribute something good to socie ty. If you were to open the prison gates tomorrow, all but abut 200 would remain and settle their debt to society," he said. He challenged the Christian peo ple of this State to help rehabilitate the man or woman who returns from prison. ?

Russian Capital Is in Serious ^ay Before Renewed Nazi Drive British ami Nazis Struggle for Control of Libya in North Africa ?Beating off constant attack for more than five months, embattled Russians were said to be in a serious plight today before Moscow where they are fighting one of the most crit ical battles of the war. Piercing the first lines of defense, the invaders bolstered by more than 600,000 fresh troops and about forty equipped tank divisions are gradually pushing on toward Moscow, some rcportsrplacittg^ the Nazis within 35 miles of the key city Russian authorities admitted to day that Moscow's fate hangs in the balance. So serious is the situation before Moscow that counterattacks have been necessary on the northern and southern flanks where the Rus sians made some progress in driv -mfr-the invading hordes back. Russian gains in the south were reassuring, and the defenders around Moscow with the aid of British tanks were said to be offering an increas ed resistance. While the Russians are fighting with their backs?tothe- wall in an effort to save their capital, British and Nazi forces are struggling for control of Libya in North Africa. The forces are fighting what has been described as a "show-down bat tle" with American tanks taking part in great numbers for the4 British. Both sides^are said to have lost heav ily in the more than two-day battle, the fury of which had never before been seen in the desert. The British were said to be hard pressed in the African fight at the end of 65 hours when their tank strength began to decline and infan try forces had to take over. Ger many was said to be rushing rein forcements by transport planes, and a stalemate in the battle was pre dicted by some. Japan, maintaining a militant atti tude. is said to be pushing toward Thailand with the expressed hope that there'll be no fighting In Wash ington the odds are three to one against a compromise, doubt for a peaceful settlement of the situation in the Far EastMiaving re-entered the picture after hope for a settlement had been expressed last week.

Hubert Coburn had his remaining leg amputated in a Rocky Mount hospital at noon today. His condition following?the?emer gency operation was described as "satisfactory" by a member of the hospital staff at two o'clock this af ternoon The limb was amputated above the knee, the hospital staff member stating the operatio*h was similar to tin* one performed nearly five years ago when the disease started spreading to other parts of his body. Attacked about five years ago, Mr Cobuin lay critically ill in a Rich mond hospital several weeks before his. first leg was amputated to save his life. He apparently recovered, and was apparently getting along very well until early yesterday morning when he started to get up shortly before seven o'clock. He felt a pain in his foot and returned to bed. After applying a heating pad to it for almost two hours, he got up and was shaving when his condition suddenly became serious. He was re moved to the hospital that morning, and late yesterday his condition was thought to have shown improvement. A marked turn for the worse was re ported this morning, and arrange ment were made immediately for the operation. If there are no complications and none U expected, Mr. Coburn should be able to return home within the next three weeks, according to a re port coming from a member of the hospital staff this afternoon. PARKING "If voluntary cooperation in the movement calling for limit ed parking by local people fail* to materialize between now and the week-end, it la quite likely that representatives of the local Chamber of Commerce will ap pear before the board of commis sioners next Monday and de mand police action," a repre sentative of the organization was quoted aJTsaying today. Since the voluntary action was suggested last week, many local people have cooperated, but It is understood that a few have in sisted on leaving their ears park ed in the main business districts for hours at a time.
