THE
Requirements For
New Grower Of
Tobacco Allotments
Anyone desiring to grow to
bacco on a farm in this county
for the first tjrne in 1944 should
make application for a new grow
er allotment at the AAA office in
the courthouse, not later than Feb
ruary 1, according to R. C. Francis,
chairman of the AAA committee.
Mr. Francis stated that in order
for a farm to be eligible for a new
grower allotment the landlord or
tenant must have grown tobacco
within the past five years.
It will also be necessary for any
one desiring an allotment to fur
nish a record of the tobacco acre
age which he has grown or shared
in from 1939 through 1943, ac
cording to Mr. Francis. The pros
pective tobacco grower will also be
required to list the amount of acre
age of cropland suitable for grow
ing tobacco, and the capacity of
curing space which he has on the
farm.
Mr. Francis stated that anyone
who had not grown tobacco within
the past five years would not be
eligible for a new allotment under
the present regulation.
Southern Buying
More Newspaper
Advertising Space
Employing the unusual technique
of advertising its own advertising,"
the Southern Railway System is
currently reproducing some of its
national magazine advertisement
in southern newspapers along its
line.
"Faith is the keynote of these
advertisements ... a compelling,
abiding faith in the future of
America's great and growing
Southland," Ernest E. Norris, Pre
sident of the Southern explained.
These magazine advertisements
which reach 1,492,153 people each
month tell of the contribution the
South is making to help speed
Victory; its agricultural and com
mercial growth in recent years; and
the new opportunities for Southern
industry and agriculture after the
war is over.
The railway is thus "proudly
telling the nation to 'Look Ahead
Look South'," Mr. Norris added.
To Demonstrate
Means Of Delicing
Livestock Here
Two demonstrations will be giv
en Friday by J. Myron Maxwell,
state extension entomologist, to
livestock men on the best methods
of clearing animals of lice and
grubs.
The first demonstration will be
held at the farm of Jack Rogers
on Crabtree at ten o'clock. The
second will be at the farm of
Claude T. Francis, in Ratcliff Cove.
Howard Clapp, county agfnt.
said it was important that more
cattlemen know of this procedure
and it will be time well spent to
attend.

Rev. Clay Madison
Heads "Spiritual
Ideals" Group

the First Methodist Church, has
been newly appointed to serve as
City Chairman in Wayn sville for
the Mobilization for Spiritual
Ideals, it was announced yesterday
by Dr. James W. Fifield, Jr. nation
al director of the movement.
With headquarters in Los Ange
les, California, and with more than
five hundred City Chairmen
throughout the United States, he
movement is one through which
clergymen of all denominations
have organized to oppose the state
ism trend which is considered to
be pagan and anti-Christian.
A governing board consisting of
such men as Will Durant, Chan
ning Pollock, Alfred Noyes, Upton
Close, Ely Culbertson, U. S. Sena
tor Albert W. Hawes, Roger Bab
son, and other leading figures serve

Mica Picture To
Be Shown Here
This Week-End
A special film, "The United
States Army Salutes the Mica In
dustry for Outstanding Results in
the Battle for Mica," is being
shown at the Park Theatre here
today and in the other mica produc
ing sections of North Carolina
under the auspices of Colonial Mica
Corp., Asheville, and promoted by
M. V. Dunavant, The movie was
filmed by the U. S. Signal Corps
and features the mica industry in
this state.
The mica industry in North Car
olina, centering in the Spruce Pine
area, produces considerably more
than one-half of the mica mined
in the United States. This min
eral, used in many of the strategic
war implements, such as electric
equipment, radio and radar, gun
mounts anij spotlight equipment,
has become increasingly scaice.
Mica mining has been classed as a
critical war activity and the in
dustry has been put. on a 48-hour
work week basis.
Dr. J. S. Dorton, State director
of the War Manpower Commission,
urges the residents who have a
chanoe to see this picture, and
thus see the importance of mica
to the war effort.
Fighting heroes back from the
fronts will display captured enemy
equipment and tell of the experi
ences of overseas fighters in the
lobbies of the theatres showing the
movie.
