ian A. Chad wick, running lor

Moi 1 is.
Volunteer Worker
Mrs Tillett informed the group;
that she is a volunteer worker for j
Senator Graham. "He's running !
very well and we certainly e.xffvt
to win," she declared.
She arrived in Carteret "County
Sunday and left yesterday alter
noon. She will speak tonight al
Hertford to a several-county gath
ering.
"Senator Graham has been more
I than president of the University
ot North Carolina," Mrs. Tillett de
' elared in referring to his recent
high position in education. "He
has the interests of all people al
heart and has closely watched their
progress in the small towns and
rural areas. Rural electricity, ru
i ral telephones, his concern with
the welfare of the farmer, and his i
particular interest in North Caro
lina's seacoast towns have been a ;
well known fact for the past JO
years," she continued.
'Look at His Fast'
"The best way to judge a man is
fo look at what he has done in the
past," the former national commit
teewoman declared.
"We feel he is qualified as 110
other to deal with international
problems. His work in establish
ing the United Stales of Indonesia
was instrumental in blocking the (
Communists in Asia. No other ran- j
didate can match his outstanding I
record in peace making and stales j
mauship.
- "He was head of all southern 1
universities and colleges in the
; atomic energy study He knows the
i commercial and military uses ot
| atomic enefgy and how it should :
j toe handled to the best advantage >
: for all peoples.
I "As a profound student of his
| torv. he has a valuable background
for study of today's complex prob
lems.
"Senator Graham is winning
wide support among the women.
Especially women teachers. No one
has done more for education than
Frank Graham in the way of in
creased salary, establishing a nine
I month school year and 12 grades.
"He has supported libraries,
worked for bookmobiles, and con
stantly led the vanguard for better
ment and progress in North Caro
1 lina," Mrs. Tillett concluded. *
Mayor Hassell announced thai
committees will be working for
I Senator Graham in each county in
I the precinct.
Rolarians Hear
Judge Hamilton
Moichcad City Rolarians heard
a talk by Judge Luther Hamilton
at their meeting Thursday night in
the First Baptist Sunday school
rooms.
Judge Hamilton warned of the
dancer of Communism, stating that
the Russians are being schooled in
that political philosophy as though
it were a religion. He said that
Communism has spread to embrace
one-third of the world's population
and that as a new generation arises,
so arises a new crop of Commun
is^tic fanatics.
The speaker announced that
their state religion is more potent
than weapon:, and that adherents
of the free democratic principle
must not, apathetically, allow the
menace to encroach upon the free
dom-loving nations of the. world.
In charge of the program was
Thomas 1) Lewis. The Rotarians
also collected $32 that night to fi
nance the sending of one boy to
Boy.. State at Chapel Hill next
month.

Smyrna Seniors Make

Long Phinned'tor Trip
By Eleanore l>car Phillips i
The graduating class of Smyrna'
high school will riot need to hear. !
in a bacca laureate sermon, that all i
that is necessary to succeed is the j
will to do. They already know that, !
and this week proxed that I hoy had
the ability to aim high ami reach
the heights.
The seniors with their teach' r
and three grade mothers, returned
Sunday from a six day trip t?? New
York City and Washington. 1J C.
For the past two years the stu
dents have aimed toward a tup 1??
New York, and they came into
their senior year with $78 saved
from their junior year, towards the
proposed jaunt.
This year tliey made $1,19;* by
giving a Thanksgiving dinner, pre
senting the senior play ;<t both '
Smyrna and Davis, holding a pop
ularity contest, a square dance,
selling Christmas cards, all occa
sion cards, stationery , flower seeds.
Easter cards, and special tooth
brushes, by holding cake walks, pie
and candy sales, and by giving a
Negro minstrel, first at Smyrna
and again at Davis.
The aim of the class was to un
derwrite the expense of the trip
themselves, so that no member
would be unable to make the trip
because of financial difficulties,
and so no parent would be called
on for extra moneys
It goes without saying that the
