I-I»M ~ I ■■ Industry Attracted To North Carolina 144 Industries Started or • Last Year North Carolina industry is becom ing more diversified and is moving into eastern and western counties | with increasing strength, Paul Kelly | reports to the State Board of Con- i servation and Development. Kelly, chief of the board’s division I of commerce and industry, said that last year 144 new industries either were started or announced for North Carolina. These offer prospective em ployment for 11.700 workers, with in vestments of more than $37,000,000. Besides, there were 91 expansions of j existing industry at a cost of $23,- 000,000 which would employ 4.500 1 more workers. And since no prepared that report i late last month, Kelly added, 10 new [ projects have been announced or are ! about to be announced which will em- [ ploy 1,800 more workers. » " —“ —V Column By |a.mrs MacKemzlf k t During a year at Richmond, Vir-, ginia, I spent much time interviewing and counselling those unfortunate youngsters who lived at the Juvenile Detention Home there. The reasons they had been convicted and sentenced as juvenile delinquents were almost as numerous as the boys and girls themselves. Some, for example, were there for petty theft, others for house breaking, still others for constantly running away from home. But all of them, white and colored, were victims of one circumstance —their parents did not love them. Not all had come from broken homes, but all had come from homes where they were not wanted. Often, T fear. We fail to realize that) children are people, with the same fundamental needs and desires of adults. One very basic desire, stem ming from the inherent dignity of hu man personality, is to be accepted by .♦'me group, and to be a necessary . Xt of that group. In the plan to ! uod, that group is the family. But when parents fail to make a child feel he is a very necessary part of the family, the child turns to some other group for acceptance. Often that group is a good one, such as a church, or an independent youth organization, and the child’s need for acceptance is filled in a wholesome way (though not in the way Cod intended). At other times, however, the child will unite with other children whose parents have made this same mistake, and form a gang. And that’s where juven ile delinquency begins.

These points are emphasized in a 16-page recruitment booklet received i by high schools in this county from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The School of Educa tion has embarked upon a recruitment program designed to attract qualified young people to the public schools as teachers, administrators, and educa tional specialists. The booklet points out that there is a great shortage of teachers in all states, especially in the white elemen tary schools, and that “teaching is no longer the thankless, underpaid, un* K|Bam I skilled drudgery with which so many of the uninformed still regard it.” Basic state salaries in North Caro lina for a Class A certificate holder, ' the booklet points out, are $270 a month for beginners. Graduate certificate holders, with a Master’s degree and 12 years of teach ing, can earn in certain North Caro lina city systems as high as $4,500 for nine months work. “We want to gat this message across to young people,” said Dean Phillips in distributing the first is sues of the booklet, “that teaching in both the regular and special fields of public schools today requires real tal i ent, and pays good dividends to both J the young men and women entering ! the profession and to communities where they will serve.” .1 She Gives You TELEPHONE SERVICE, Too!
