Men and women, who have large investments in the industrial com panies of the nation, are almost un animous in the belief that the Gov ernment should do something to show big business that it is appre ciated and thus encourage industry to assist the nation in its defense program. The nation, through its Govern ment, is not doing much to placate the young men called to serve in the Army which is being trained to de fend the nation, including the invest ments of the Americans who would placate big business. KEEPING UP WITH THE SUN Aircraft officials are now predict ing' speeds of more than 1,000 miles an hour as engineers increase the power of engines and improve the construction of airplanes. Such speeds will not arrive in a month, or a year, but present speeds were considered impossible a few years back. The size of airplanes seems to have no limits and nobody -knows how big the plane of 1960 will be. New methods are being devised to eliminate air resistance which, at one time, it was thought would defi nitely limit air speeds. Huge planes, measuring 200 feet from wing tip to wing tip and weighing more than eighty tons, are in production and will skim through the air with the greatest of ease, thanks to modern engineering science. When the 1,000-miles-an-hour plane arrives it will be possible for man to fly around the globe, keeping up with the sun. Nothing but the international date-line would make him miss a day.

Ifs about time for the tariff-pro tected industrialist to quit grunibling about the benefits that the govern ment pays to farmers. CliMYemi! A number of women from the Woman's dub, Junior Woman's Club and Literary Club visited the Farm-? wile Oil and Fertiliser - Company Wednesday in the interest of the In dustrial Survey planned 1 by Mrs. John D. Robinson, President of the State Federation, as one of the out standing activities of her adminis tration. As women spend most of the money for the necessities of life they should know something of the industrial side. The visitors were cordially wel comed by Irvin Morgan, Jr., who con ducted them through the plant. The making of fertilizer, dairy feed and salad oil from peanuts is the chief work at present. The peanuts are! unloaded from a car into a machine to remove the dirt and then carried through a pipe to another building where the kernels are separated from the hulls. The hulls are used for) fuel and the nuts are ground and pressed into cakes and put inside a press cloth which is made from hu man hair. These cakes are put in a machine which presses out' the oil. The press cloth is then removed and the ends of each cake is trimmed off to save remaining oil. Each cake is then pulverized into powder like form for feed and fertilizer. Seven hun dred and fifty pounds of meal are made from one ton of peanuts and four hundred and fifty pounds of oil ' from one ton of peanuts. Cotton seed are made into feed, fertilizer and oil in practically the same way as the peanuts. Other fertilizers, that' help the farmers grow godd crops of corn, cotton, to bacco, grain and legumes are also made. In addition to the fertilizer plant thousands or bales ox cotton are ginned each season. The plant has been crushing the peanuts since 1933 but the industry was established in 1910 with R. L. Davis as President, J. I. Morgan as Business Manager and Josh Dixon as Shipping Tender. Since 1924 Mr. Morgan has been President; he and Mr. Dixon are the only two have been connected with the business during its thirty one years of service. For many years the plant furnish ed electric lights for the town and manufactured ice As safety measures, rails are plac ed around dangerous machinery, safety placards are in evidence and first aid kits are convenient in case of accidents. The industry has thrived and ex panded until now there are from one hundred and twenty to two hundred and fifty men on the pay roll, de pending on seasonal activities. Work goes on day and night in three shifts of eight hours. Each man is an adept, at his particular post, doing his job with clock-like regolarity, never idling and-tho roughly content ed with his work and pay of thirty cents per hour. The erection of this plant in Farm ville and its expansion has filled a: great need here and is an asset to; the whole community in the interest | of farming and labor.
