Atom Bomb, Radar, Rocket Combined In Single Army Weapon New Methods Will Re place Anti-Aircraft or Field Artillery The Army’s “ultra modem” super armaments program now combines , the three most significant develop ments to emerge from World War ll— the atomic bomb, the supersonic rocket and radar. These developments have been welded into a guided missiles program —a program which in many respects now is out of the development stage and is in the mass production stage. There can be no doubt that guided missiles have moved out of the realm of science-fiction into that of reality. In the eight years the Army has been working on supersonic rockets and guided missiles, several have been developed. Some of them—such as the Nike were developed for anti-air STRANGE CASE OF “THREE WOMEN IN ONE BODY” Pathetic plight of a young woman, although possessing but one body, has three distinct and radically different personalities.

Others, including the* Honest John and the Corporal—not to be confused with earlier research vehicles such as the Wac Corporal or the Corporal E— were developed as long-range field artillery to strike at targets on the surface of the earth. The Corporal E, a surface-launched test missile, was developed as a re-, search instrument by the Army Ord nance Corps. To date, announcements of spe cifics of these missiles have been Ign ited, but men responsible for the Army’s super - armaments program take pride in the fact that guided mis siles now have emerged from their design and cocoon stage into flight and tactical production. Army Chief of Staff General J. Lawton Collins said recently: “What the Army is doing is inte grating these arms —guided missiles, rockets, as well as atomic artillery— into our own pattern of t weapons.” During the past year the Army be gan production of tactical missiles and set the wheels in motion to activate combat units trained and equipped to fire at least two of the Army’s new missiles. The Army did not intend to sit back and wait until the first tactical guided missile was produced and then rush into a furious training program. In stead, it began training immediately on available test rockets and missiles so that tactical missiles could be em ployed in the field at the earliest pos sible date. This meant taking advantage of every opportunity for guided missile training, continued assistance in the development work at White Sands Proving Ground, sending personnel to factories and laboratories throughout the country to obtain on-the-job train ing, and missile operations and train ing for the men on whatever “hard ware” was available. “Where we use a guided missile THE CHOWAN HERALD..

The new weapons have 1 great possibilities, especially in bad weather. But the public should not jump to the conclusion that they will replace conventional weapons over night.” Credit for the achievements made in REO POWER MOWERS I SALES AND SERVICE | I Also Repairs and Service on I I All Makes of Mowers | Chowan Farmers Exchange, Inc.

Ho«r Raising Booklet Available To Farmers Hogs are grown in every communi ty in North Carolina. Chowan Coun ty is no exception. The trick is to I make hog-raising profitable. “Raising Hogs in North Carolina,” is the latest North Carolina State Col- I lege Extension Service publication and should result in happier hogs and bet ter pork, plus increased income for swine producers. Prepared by Jack Kelley, in charge of livestock for the Extension Service, and H. A. Steward, in charge of swine research for State College, the 16-page illustrated booklet is the latest infor mation on swine production from se lecting breeding stock and sow test ing to cross breeding,'herd manage ment, pasture, grains, antibiotics and minerals. On marketing, the authors warn farmers that “Even the slightest bruises lower the grade of prime cuts and hurt the sale of finished pork pro ducts. The use of sticks, clubs, sharp instruments, prodpoles and whips in jure hogs”—and your pocketbook. Kel ley and Steward suggest that farmers use canvas slappers or electric prods to drive hogs. North Carolina’s swine industry, which ranks second in the entire South and is a $65 million annual business furnishes a part of the food supply for most farm families and the income from cash sales is of considerable im portance. r nr Where Every Day is Bargain Day | Everything points to one [outstanding sact —your % ' telephone offers you the biggest bargain you can i f y A look at its low cost will prove the true value of your .telephone.
