and I hope tha business
from our state will come
forward if they feel that the
policies and activities of the
Small Business
Administration need
revision or change.
This is one of a series of
hearings that this
Subcommittee of the Senate
Banking and Urban Affairs
Committte is holding in.
various parts of the country
to gather information. In
November, a hearing was
held in Utah.
As chairman of the
Subcommittee, I will
preside at the hearings and
will be joined by other
senators who are members.
We plan to hold both
morning and afternoon
sessions and will hear as
many businessmen as
possible.
These hearings are a very
real effort by members of
the Senate Subcommittee to
get some real input fromthe
operators of business that
are regarded as “small”.
And I think this is
important, because while it is
the large corporations
which get the publicity and
the headlines, it is the
“small” business which is
the real backbone of the
economy in a state such as
North Carolina.
This type of business is the
principal employer in our
state and in many other
states and in today’s
economy, may of them
simply aren’t making it. The
small Business
Administration was created
to help small business, and
if there are ways this help
can be improved, then the
Subcommittee wants to get
the facts.
If government regulations
are too stifling or if the need
for additional capital for
further growth and
development is hurting
North Carolina’s small
businessmen, the senators
on the Subcommittee want
to hear the details from
sworn testimony.
After ten months as
chairman of the
Subcommittee, I am
convinced of the importance
‘of the survival of the small
businessman to the national
economy. The December
hearings hopefully will
provide a vehicle for
finding ways to strengthen
the role of these businesses
in the state and nation.
The hearings are to be
held in the Old Federal
Courtroom on the second
floor of the Century Post
Office. Any person wishing
to testify that day can have
his name put on the list of
witnesses by getting in
touch with Tom Adams, a
member of my staff, at our
Raleigh office, P. O. Box
2719, Raleigh, 27602,

Quiet Atomic Trains
Are Over the Horizon
An atomic-powered railroad
should be technically or eco
nomically feasible in 1990 or
2000, according to a survey of
industrial firms and govern
ment agencies conducted by
the McGraw-Hill Publications'
Department of Economics.
Other findings of the third
Survey of Technological Break
throughs and Widespread Ap
plications indicated that noise
free trains will be available in
the year 2000, and trains made
of plastic may find broad use
in the twenty-third century,
after becoming technologically
feasible in the year 2150 and
economical 25 years later.
THE CHOWAN HERALD
Neaiatod* Assay
Is Inexpensive
Crop Protection
RALEIGH—How many
“varmints” are sharing
your crops? Soils of North
Carolina frequently contain
more than 10,000 plant
parasitic nematodes per
pint.
According to Dr. David
Rickard, nematologist for
the N. C. Department of
Agriculture, “this amounts
to about 40 pounds of
plant-destructive nema
todes per acre.
Considering this in terms of
other {riant-feeding animals,
who would want a 40-pound
goat eating away on each
acre of corn or soybeans, or
10 four-pound rabbits per
acre of vegetables?
“The presence of
nematodes will not be as
obvious as goats, rabbits or
other ‘varmints’, because
they are microscopic. Only
a special test, called
nematode assay, can be
relied upon to determine
their presence and the
hazard they pose to future
crops.
Dr. Rickard advises
against the use of any
chemical soil treatments
unless the kinds and
numbers of nematodes
present are known.
“The known presence of
nematodes in a neighbor’s
soil does not necessarily
mean you have a nematode
problem,” he declared.
“Some nematodes are only
harmful to certain crops,
and there are other means
to reduce losses to these
pests than chemicals
alone.”
The N. C. Department of
Agriculture offers all state
residents the services of the
Nematode Advisory Section
of the Agronomic Division.
There is a charge of $1 for
each nematode assay. For
instructions and materials
for proper sampling,
contact: The Nematode
Advisory Section,
Agronomic Division, N. C.

Blue Ridge Road Center,
Raleigh 27611 or call (919)

CARD OF THANKS
I would like to thank
everyone for the prayers,
flowers, cards, food, visits,
gifts and the other
expressions of kindness
shown me while I was a
patient in Chowan Hospital
and after returning home.

Word Os Caution Is Given
RALEIGH-
Commissioner of
Agriculture James A.
Graham sounded a word of
advice about new
agriculture products that
may not have been
thoroughly tested in North
Carolina prior to
distribution. That advice is
to proceed cautiously in
investing in any new
product that has not been
tested, demonstrated or
observed locally to
determine if it will increase
efficiency in crop
production.
Farm Products
Are Good Gifts
Chowan County Farm
Bureau has. joined a
statewide Farm Bureau
effort to increase
consumption on farm
products during the holiday
season, according to
Jimmie Parrish, president
of the farm organization.
He said the local Frm
Bureau will promote the
idea of giving farm products
for Christmas in an effort to
increase the sale of the farm
commodities especially
those in an economic slump.
Parrish pointed out that
the giving of such products
not only solves the age-old
problem of what to give for
Christmas, but also
expresses the true spirit of
the season.
The county farm leader
suggested that a number of
products lend themselves to
gift-giving, including dairy
products, fruits, turkey,
canned meat, peanuts, and
tobacco products. He also
pointed out that many
grocery stores sell gift
certificates which can be
redeemable in farm
products.
“It is important that farm
products continue to move
through the marketing
system in order to help
insure an adequate return to
the producer,” Parrish said.
“Further cut-backs in
production and the
possibility of higher prices
in the future might
otherwise result,” he added.

“Many new products are
being presented with claims
that they improve efficiency
in crops production,”
Graham said. Often the N.
C. Department of
Agriculture is unaware of
their development until they
are on the market. They
may be pulverized rock,
processed organic residues,
cultures of bacteria or other
microorganisms, or
mixtures with claims for
multiple trace elements.”
Products with claims for
fertilizer nutrients require
registration under the
Fertilizer and Lime Laws.
This offers the Department
of Agriculture a chance to
review research data and
exercise some discretion in
registration.
However, Graham points
out that cultures of
microorganisms do not
come under a registration
requirement unless those
organisms are considered
harmful to plants, animals,
or the environment.
“Private research is
invaluable to today’s
farmers and many products
necessary in today’s
agriculture were developed
from such research,” the
commissioner said.
“We should remember,
however, that we also have
a most notable Agricultural
Research Station and
Extension Program at N. C.
State University. It is
unlikely new advances in
agricultural research,
whatever its source, will
long go unnoticed by that
institution.”
Farmers should not invest
in such products until
observing satisfactory
performance in their area or
following recommendations
by the N. C. Agriculture
Experiment Station and N.
C. Extension Service.
Raspberries to rosebuds?
... In spite of all the odes to
the “little rosebud mouth"
the new season is returning to
the old poetry that “the lips
should be a bright raspberry
color” . . . but women being
the bright-thinkers they are
will wear what suits them so
be prepared for strawberry
lilac, rose, pink, plum or coral
if it “goes’.’ with the lady.(HO
