SENATOR JORDAN
mk REPORTS
Kißigi; From WASHINGTON
Washington After five years
of opposition to the idea, it was
revealed last week that the Ad
ministration is now prepared to
support the proposal for a World
Food Bank made in 1954 by the
late Sen. W. Kerr Scott.
The change in position was re
vealed in a political speech Vice
President Nixon made in North
Dakota. Last Tuesday, newspa
pers throughout the Nation car
ried big headlines about Nixon
advocating a World Food Bank
as a means of reducing our farm
surpluses and helping needy peo
ple throughout the world.
The Vice President failed to
mention in his speech two very
mportant facts in connection with
his suggestion:
I. This same proposal was
made by Senator Scott, Senator
Murray and others as early as
1954.
J. The President and the Ad
ministration strongly opposed
Senate resolutions which would
establish a World Food Bank in
troduced by Senator Scott, Sena
tor Murray and others in 1955.
J was glad to see that thg
Vice President, after five years,
saw fit to go along with such
a worthwhile program. I am
confident that had it not been
for the opposition by the Ad
ministration to the proposal
through the years, we would 1
have a World Food Bank in op
eration today.
The plan, as envisioned by
Senator Scott, was a sound pro
Suggestions On Ornamentals
By C, W. OVERMAN, County Agricultural Agent
Why Plants Fail To Bloom is
a good question, but hard to an
swer. In most cases it is be
cause of rapid growth or lack of
sunlight. It’s never because of
a male plant. Some plants have
male and female flowers on sep
arate plants, but obviously both
sexes have to bloom. If too
much nitrogen is in the soil
plants put on excessive vegeta
tive growth and produce few
flowers. Naturally, don’t use ni
trogen (or complete fertilizer)
around these plants, but only
phosphate and potash. Some
times cutting some of the roots
(plants can’t reach out as far
for nitrogen) will cause a plant!
to bloom. Never girdle (remove
all the bark) a stem or plant to
make it bloom. A girdled stem
will eventually die. A knife cut,
without removing bark, around a
stem might help but even this
is not suggested. The important
thing is the proper nitrogen level
and ample sunlight.
Don’t- expect Jpo many blos
soms from young plants, espe
cially while they are growing
Plants making slow growth in
poor soil will usually bloom!
ahead of those growing in good I
soil ' 'and making rapid growth. .
Why Do Plants Fail To Set!
Fruit? This may be due to (a) |
lack of blossoms, (b) frost dam-|
age. (c) male plants (remember!
male plants bloom but do not
set fruit), (d) poor, pollination
(caused by rainy weather at time
of blooming, high temperatures,
lack of bees to distribute pollen,!
or a poor pollinating variety).
If a poor pollinating variety is j
your trouble, plant another va i
riety for cross pollination. Ex-
KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
John T. Grooms, representative of the Social Security
Administration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North
Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the
Citizens Bank Buildng.
Would you take the bread
from the mouth of an orphan
child? Os course, none of us
would knowingly do so, but some
might do so without realizing
it.
Lack of knowledge about the
Social Security law on the part
of the employer and/or the
worker can result in money not
baipg payable to feed and clothe
a child whose working father or
mother has just died.
Protection under social securi
ty in case of death, disability,
or old-age depends upon the
breadwinner’s having worked a
certain length of time and hav
ing gotten credit for the work
tut his social security account.
Many people work,, but some
times they do not get the credit
because they and their employ
er* are unfamiliar with the law.

' wide pool of surplus food and

; through the United Nations,
j Nations in need could borrow
j from the pool and repay Jater
in cash or with raw materials

I Nations might deposit wheat in
the pool and withdraw rubber.
Another nation might deposit
copper or rubber and withdraw
corn or wheat.
The idea of surpluses being |

is certainly a reasonable and
logical one. Such a plan of-,

for us to dispose of some of our|
surpluses and at the same time
be of real assistance to hungry
and needy people throughout the
world. Furthermore, it would
take away many of the give
away features of our present pro
grams of surplus disposal. t
After the Vice President re
vealed that the Administration
had changed positions on the
matter, Senator Murray offered
a new draft of the original reso
lution he and Senator Scott in
troduced in 1955.
I hope the Vice-President and
the Administration are ready to
carry through with their new
views, because such a program
could be a tremendous help in
solving many domestic and for
eign problems.

Tar Heel Landowners Urged To
Plan For Trees Os Tomorrow
North Carolina can play a big
part in fulfilling America’s grow
ing need for timber, says a fed
eral forestry expert.
"The nation will have to dou
ble the growth of sawtimber by
th e year 2.000,” says Hugh Red
ding of Asheville, U. S. Forest
Service Supervisor for the State.
“We now produce 47 billion (b)
board feet a year. For the year
2,000’s three hundred and sixty
million population, we’ll need a
rate of 105 billion (b).”
There are some 16 million
acres of privately owned forest
land in North Carolina, most of
it in the hands of small land
owners. "A major part of sup
plying the needs of the nation
will be up to them,” says Red
ding. “Demand will be far more
than industry and public land
can take care of.”
From a new USDA booklet,'
“Look to Your Timber, Ameri
ca,” Redding cites four ways of
stepping up growth: (1) in
crease tree planting; (2) keep
newly cut lands productive; (3)
strengthen control of diseases,
insects and fires; (4) make bet
ter use of timber now being cut,
and of dead and cull trees.
“Sawtimber growth in the na
tion in 1953 was 9 per cent more
than in 1944, when the last prev
ious appraisal of the timber sit
uation was made,” says Redding
“But the best trees are most
heavily cut; and the smaller
poor-value trees being left are
less useful.”
About 50 million acres of
American land need planting and
millions more acres are not
stocked to full capacity, says
Redding. “Too many acres lie
idle after timber cutting while
the owner waits for natural re
seeding. Such acres should be
plantwl soon after logging.”
Redding says destructive agents
