TIME FOR MORATORIUM ON
JOBLESS PAYMENTS
There is something revolting about
the fact that in this day and time,
when jobs are going begging and a
crying need for worlcen exists
everywhere, some persons are collect
ing unemployment compensation
benefits. No honest, upright citizen
begrudges the payment of benefits to
unemployed who have made con
scientious efforts to obtain work and
who are liable to suffer unleqs
financial assistance is obtained from
some source. But reports have come
to us that it is a common practice
for able-bodied workers to quit jobs
and make false representation which
enables them to "qualify" for pay
ments.
The unemployment agencies were
born during the depression and con
stitute one of the great strides the
nation made in social legislation.
To repeal this legislation would be
a step backward and heaven forbid
tliat it ever be done. Abuses, how
ever, should not be tolerated and the
strong arm of the law should- lash
out furiously at those who falsify in
order to receive payments. It be
hooves every law-abiding citizen to
notify the unemployment agencies
of any cases in which persons are
illegally getting checks.
It occurs to us that it might be
wise to declare a general moratorium
on unemployment payments. Let the
funds pile up and be paid when jobs
are at a premium. If those lean
years never come, then turn the
money over to schools and churches
because every day we are becoming
more and more convinced that educa
tion and religion, coupled with
plenty of hard work, are what this
nation of ours needs.
NOT LACKING -COURAGE
Not even Pandora's Box could
have held as many plagues and evils
as have popped up daring the office
tenure of President Truman, the
man who did not want to be presi
dent and who, at the 3tart of his
administration, humbly told the
Congress and the people that he
needed their help in order to fulfill
the duties of the most important
office in the world.
Last Fall and Winter when the
United States seemed to be groping
for a sound foreign policy and the
nation was not taking the lead, as
other countries expected us to do,
in formulating a permanent peace
program. President Truman's stock
dipped and such slurring quips as,
'To err is Truman," were bandied
back and forth, and cartoonists of
opposition newspapers 'ribbed him
as one who lacked courage and did
not even know his own mind.
The President seems to have in
creased in stature in recent weeks
arid a soft pedal has been applied to
the uncomplimentary remarks which
no longer are popular. Placed on
his desk have been two strongly
backed bills which he vetoed and
sent back to Congress. First of these
was the Case Bill. Then came the
emasculated OPA Bill. With these
vetoes, the President sent mesaag
outlining his reasons for disapprov
ing the proposed legislation. His
reasoning was sound and generally
was praised by the press and citizen
ry
The unpretentious, humble map
is more capable than be admitted
and, along with sympathy, deserves
praise for the courage be has dis
played in fulfillment of his duties.
Hi# very humbleness was evidence of
courage and recalls to mind these
lines from James Russell Lowell:
"The wisest man could aak no more
At what age do married people be
come reconciled to the fact that they
an equally different and differently
equal?in short, what is the age of
?enmity?
Man or woman, if you cant say
"No" yon moat take the
"Now is the time as M*er before
0 extend the nee of temporary grai
ny crops for hoes," said Dr. Roy
x>worn, pasture specialist, at' the
ecent hoy breeders field day sit State
College.
Loworn pointed out that having
togs on pasture is not only a sound
nanagemcnt practice that has bet
??cognized for years, bat now offers
1 way to relieve tile acute feed
ihortage and still grow quality meat.
Although it is too bite to use
rome of the crepe this summer it is
lever too late to plan for the future,
rhe main crops recommended are
listed as follows:
Soybeans: Any leafy variety,
iown in narrow rows, is good. Use
a bushel of seed per sere.
Lespedesa: While this is not the
best grazing crop, it can be used to
advantage except in dry periods.
Kudsu: A new plant for hog graz
ing and one that gives excellent re
sults when properly used.
Alfalfa: This king of the hay
crops is very satisfactory for hog
grazing. It can be grown on any
well drained soil, but due to its a
grvwlh must be fertilised
heavily with lime, phosphate and
Tadino Clover: Another new plant
which makes an excellent growth
suitable for forage. The seed are ex
pensive, |S.60 a pound, and 2-4
For winter grazing, rye grass and
crimson clover are still the best we
have. They should he sown early,
seeded heavily, 16-20 pounds of clo
ver and 26-30 pounds of rye grass
per acre, and fertilised liberally.
One can expect plenty of potatoes
at the J. T. School, Concord, Route
2. The school endeavors to pro
duce enough vegetables and fruits
to meet its requirements. This year
1,800 bushels of-potatoes were har
vested.
Give s married man a little free
dom and hebecomes suspicious.
If sugar is lacking, try, drying
some of the fruit on hand. Peaches
can be dried in the oven or out in
the sun successfully, and delicious
pies can be made from the dried
fruit.

Looking to Morehead. . . Sporta
?on of thelM^ita Have their eyes
toned to Moreheed City, where next
week's seeeipn July 22-23-24 of. the
Board of Conservation and Develop
ment will Mag forth the final say
so on hunting regulations for the
approaching season.
The board will hear recommenda
tiona of the Division of Game and
Inland Fisheries for a curtailment
in kCl through shorter seasons and
bag limits on some game species.
The division's proposals, made in
January so that sufficient time
would be allowed to sportsmen to
speak their minds on the subject, are
based on the problem of maintain
ing adequate breeding stock in the
face of an anticipated step-up in
hunting pressure.
Hot spot will be recommendations
for cuts in seasons on deer, quail,
turkey and rabbit. Already at pub
lic meetings, representatives of the
division and the board have listened
to various suggestions, including the
desire for better law enforcement
and a.request for lay days for the
hunting of all game species. All in
formation and recommendations of
hunters will *be presented to the
board? Commissioner John D. Find
lay will outline the division's pro
posed changes.

The rains cams . , ; The epidemic
of rains which came with July has
thrown a shadow on the fishing
picture in Borne sections of the
State, especially in the east, but
there are still some bright spots.
Robeson county comes up with a
"first" for the distaff side. Miss
Lois Kinlaw caught a 16-inch hick
ory shad in Lumber River with Hook
and line. This was the first shad
ever caught that high up in the Lum
ber, according to E. W. Came, fish
and game protector.
The waters of Catherine Lake
yielded a black bass weighing nine
and a half pounds, 27 inches nu
girth, reports Protector Lonnie
Koonce of Onslow county.
Up in the mountains there were
reports of fine catches of rainbow j
trout. Wayne Rogers of Waynee
ville took one of 24 inches and one
of 19 1-2 inches, and Charles M.
Crook of West Asheville, Route 3,
brought in a string of^ eight averag
ing 18 inches in length and nine
pounds in weight.
Rogers had a real battle with hid
24-inch rainbow, wnich he took from
Cataloochee Creek. It took him 20
minutes and the help of others in his
party to bring in the big boy. He
was fishing with Floyd Woody of
Canton, and Hugh Rogers of Clyde.
Less than an hour's fishing gave
Crook his good string which he took
from Frozen Lake, near Rosman.

More rain trouble. . . Fishermen
aren't the only ones who are looking
anxiously- at the skies after the
month's heavy rains. Damage to the
quail and turkey crop is feared in
many sections.
Protectors Alex Davis Of Cart
eret county and Eugene Jones of
District 11 (Chatham, Lee, Moore
and Randolph counties) have dis
turbing reports on possible damage
to game, and Protector Lester A.
Pierce of Pasquotank county, al
though reporting food conditions for
fish and game good at present, drops
a hint of danger ahead if there is
more rein.
Good reports on game birds come
from scattered sections.. Protector
H. Grady Farthing, noting the fin
est crop of young quail on hand that
he has ever seen at this time of
year, says it appears that Hunting
will be good an both quail and
grouse in Watauga, Ashe, and Alle
gheny counties, and on quail in
ilkes. He also reports that ~
ibbits are very much in
lis year.

Still after them lij. . Fish and
game law violations in North Caro
lina m June declined slightly from
the 1946 peak established in May,
according to records released by C.
D. Kirkpatrick, chief of law enforce
ment of the Division of Game and
Inland Fisheries.
'During June the division's fish
and game protectors obtained 440
convictions, as against 480 for May.
Violators paid out last month
$1,681.70 in fines and $2,813.61 in
court costs, as against $2,152.11 in
tines and $2,696.14 in costs paid in
May.
Largest single type of violation
in June waa fishing without license,
which accounted for nearly one-third
of the convictions. Next was the
taking of underaize fish, of which
about one-fifth of the violators
were convicted.
Waterfowl hunters, note. , . The
1946 migratory bird hunting stamps
have gone on sale in all first and
second class post offices. The stamp

drawing by Robert W. Hmes, artist

tial if you're going after migratory
game birds?it's illegal to hunt
