nn KVTES^^ U/PDOT, K*HOOJI Fun Yovrfi fowxioion TAKE INDUSTRY TO THE WOODS One of the nation's number one headaches is throbbing In rural communities throughout America. It is the headache possessed by rural leaders and civic groups as they compete with large cities I for the placing ■ of industrial en- I terp rises ino r H near small towns I and Tillages. During recent months billions I of dollars have been appropriat- Eyes ed for the pur pose of bolstering American de fenses on water, on land and in the air. The capacity of existing industrial facilities necessary for the turning out of materials and finished products is rapidly being Women get "Build-up" A good way to relieve periodic dis comfort from functional dysmenor rhea due to malnutrition, such as headaches, nervousness, cramp-like pain, many women find is by using CARDUL It usually sharpens ap petite, increases flow of gastric juices, and so aids digestion, helps build resistance to periodic dis tress.

In order to provide additional production, new plants must be built to handle the tre mendous volume of machines and other items necessary to the suc cessful defense of the nation. The great question of the day is the location of new facilities for national defense. Great cities are tell in: g their advantage through bureaus of specialists. These specialists inform industry and government why manufac turing plants and other opera tions required for defense should be concentrated in or near the nation's largest centers of popu lation. The pressure is on Again. Vol umes of statistics are being pro duced, showing why this or that city should become the center for making tanks or other specified weapons of warfare. Pressure groups are exerting every in fluence to secure the benefits of national preparedness. Airports, aircraft plants and aviation schools are being rapidly built, NOT IN RURAL COMMUNITIES BUT IN CITIES. Bombings of European cities should teach us a lesson. We hear much these days about bombings of these centers of de fense industries. Why mass air targets in the cities? A large bomb dropped almost anywhere in such an active area causes dis ruption of necessary wartime in dustrial operations. An example of such centralization in the United States is that of the ma chine tool industry. One of the major companies producing these necessary machines for defense and industrial programs puts out 60 per cent, of all turret lathes produced in this country. Think of the disastrous results of one large bomb dropped in that vital area. What is better military strategy than to have our new industrial units and airports nestled in the hills and forests of our vast coun tryside? We snould profit from the experiences of European na tions who now are frantically building new factories in rural areas. Every thinking American knows full well the necessity for strengthening our defenses. He is ready to assume the taxation necessary to make this possible. Since resourcefulness has been the strength of our country, we should continue this same quality by not overlooking any oppor tunities to make this an even stronger nation. Again the op portunity has come to utilize this resourcefulness. We can prepare for conflict and build for peace by settling new defense industries in the scattered rural areas SP 1 ' " ' "J ' ' «" • • " ' THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, WORTH CAROLINA NATIONAL AWARD WON AGAIN BY LOCAL COMPANY George S.

This is sound from a military point of view and from economic and so cial standpoints. Redistribution of industry will lead to greater economic stability as well as so cial advantage. The great ob stacle to the redistribution of in dustry has been the impractica bility of moving established man ufacturing concerns. Now new plants are about to be built and efficient redistribution of industry can be successfully carried out. For the first time in many years rural America presents the greatest advantaged to industry. Now is the time for new hope to spring in the hearts of the in habitants of villages and small cities of this nation. But hope alone cannot acomplish anything. Action is the thing that is nec essary. The leaders of rural communities should use these basic arguments as the founda tion upon which to build in the minds of Industrial and govern ment leaders an accurate picture of the advantages to be found in their respective communities. The measure or a great people is to be found in the two-fold ability to insure its security while at the same time not losing the stride of its progress to greater achievement. | MULBERRY j Several from this community are attending the revival in pro gress at Union Cross this week.
