Marvels Of Production Marvels of American production. Ameri can industry has shifted from peace time production to all-out war production. It has been done with the same American ingenuity that rated our peace time industrial produc tion the greatest in the world. Liberator bombers two years ago cost $238,000. Today the cost has been reduced to $137,000. Light tanks reduced from $45, 000 to $22,564. Price reduction on engines for swift fighter planes have amounted to 34 per cent since. 1940. What marvels of production. Such pro duction can defeat any power on earth. A pet regret is that we have but one vaca tion to spend in our country and no gas to get there. Morganton News-Herald. NATIONAL DITORIAL SSOCIATION 19 I I aJkM 77 i 'Hank Carolina i I AMOClATK S' nana Carolina A THURSDAY, JUNE 1, 1944 (One Day Nearer Victory) Manpower Shortage There is very definitely a manpower short age. Everyone knows it to be a fact. It is obvious with as many million men out of this country as there are today, that we would feel it keenly, coupled in addition to stepped up production. Yet walk the length of Main Street dur ing the supposed and so called working hours, and you will be surprised at the "sons of rest" that are still with us. Right in the middle of the busiest time of the day you will find them. Many of them may be in 4-F, we grant, but they could still cut grass and make a garden, which to our mind, would be far less tiresome than spending hours standing around the streets. We are inclined to think that our town is no exception, for we imagine that every community has its, shall we say, "parasites", or "lilies that toil not." Music In Our Lives The high school orchestra composed of twelve band student's; arid two vocalists from the girls' chorus of the Waynesville township high school band made a pronounced hit at the annual banquet of the Chamber of Com merce, held last Thursday night. This was to be expected with the home folks, because they were our children, but the out-of-town guests were only concerned with the quality of the music, and they too passed favorable judgment. One had only to watch the ex pressions on the faces of those present to realize that the group was putting their music across. We heard on all sides "Who is the director of the group?" "Please, tell me who those pretty girls are singing with the orchestra. They can sing and they look like they might be the belles of the town." "Who is that boy singing now?" "Does the group play profes sionally?" "Who is the drummer? He really knows his drum," and many more of the same order. The correct answer to the questions asked would have been too long for the occasion. In answering the personal inquiries, we would like to have told the visitors the his tory of our local band and the music it has put into the lives of our children as well as our community. How drab our gatherings must have been without the music we now enjoy by the band. The splendid performance on Thursday night was not of sudden attainment, but dates back to the first organization of the band. Many of the present players were too young to be members of that original group, but by hearing the others play, they were being trained long before they actually started to study music. Each year we have noticed an improvement in the playing of the high school band. The longer music is a part of the lives of the students in the school, the higher the standard of their per formance will become. As we listened to the music on Thursday night, we felt a deep sense of gratitude to the community leaders who made the band possible and to those who have continued their support of this phase of education in our schools. Success and Good Will When the Dayton Rubber plant opened its doors in a magnificent gesture of hospitality and good will to the citizens of Haywood County, they gained from the start the friendly interest of our folks. This appre ciation has grown with the expansion of the plant, which has afforded employment to hundreds of our citizens. The address of A. L. Freedlander. Dresi- dent of the company, gave further evidence on Ihursday night of the attitude of the management of the plant toward Haywood County and Western North Carolina. He left no doubt about how he feels toward this section and the people. If the growth of the plant will depend upon the good will of the people of this sec tion, as he pointed out in his talk, he need have no fear of its expansion, for the Davton Rubber plant and its officials have made a place for themselves among us. We have liked from the beginning their conservative attitude toward their development. It gave us conndence. They have done more than tney promised in the first instance. Their policy toward the community and the people, and their employees is in keeping with the fine spirit in our other industrial plants. In other words the Dayton Rubber ioiks speak our own language, and when we mountain folks made up our minds we like people, we are for them one hundred per cent. We liked Mr. Freedlander's idea of post war planning starting with the individual, for after ajl the Oommunity, the state and the nation are just what you and I make it. We are part of a whole and unless we catch the vision of things ahead there will be the same old story of the 1920's, which we do not want to see enacted ever again on the pages of American history.

Vision Without Boundary Lines One of the visitors at the banquet on Thursday night expressed surprise over the complete cooperation of three communities Waynesville, Hazelwood and Lake Junaluska, in their vision of promotion of this section. The visitor had met a Waynesville man in Asheville, and had been invited to the ban quet. "But the banquet is not in Waynesville, but in Hazelwood and must be an affair of that town," said the visitor. Even after the Waynesville man explained that the local Chamber of Commerce served three communities as well as the rural sec tion of Haywood County, the man did not understand. The visitor confessed that not until he sat at the banquet and observed first hand the perfect harmony and united interest of the people of the three communities did he comprehend. The man is a leader in his own community. He is active in promoting industry and in bringing new business to his area. He is a leader in his profession, but according to him he found something new. here. He stated that in the years of his exper ience in civic matters he had never seen a finer illustration of cooperation and unity of purpose. The idea of Waynesville, Hazelwood and Lake Junaluska with their bonds of common interest struggling with three Chambers of Commerce struck an unnatural note with us. Yet on second thought we do know that such things exist and that it might have been possible to have such differences here had not the leaders of the three communities possessed a vision beyond boundary lines.
