Cattl* Producers >
; Return Favorable
Referendum Vote ,
“By an over-whelming
86.7 per cent North Carolina
cattle producers returned a
favorable vote on the Beef
Referendum,” reports
Charles E. Messer,
president of the N. C. Cat
tlemen’s Association. “Due
to the concerted efforts of
the N. C. Beef Development
Taskforce and the county'
extension livestock agents,,
plus countless other, well'
over die required fifty per
cent of the registered voters
returned to cast ballots on
the Referendum.”
Official registration in
North Carolina was 3,045
cattle producers. Os those
who registered, 1,037
returned to vote, 1,080 in
favor of the referendum, 277
against.
In Chowan County, there
were 15 beef producers
registered, nine of which
voted, all in favor of the
referendum.
The Beef Referendum is a
self-help program, financed
by voluntary collections
from cattle producers. “If
the beef business is going to
get more profitable,
producers themselves are
going to have to make it
more profitable. The Beef
- Referendum provides the
tools - promotion, research,
foreign market develop
ment, marketing in-;
formation - to do the job,”
Messer said.
“The beef industry’s
present research and in
formation effort is
inadequate by any standard.
We spend a small fraction of
what many other, smaller
commodity groups spend.
The referendum, if passed
nationally, will generate the
S3O to S4O million a year
needed to solve our
problems and strengthen
our markets,” said Messer.
1 4-Week Series
t
On Channel 2
r-r. • k!
A fourteen week series of
patient education programs
will be aired from July 30th
through Ocotober 29th on ti»e
University of Nprth
Carolina Television Net
work. The program which
will be seen state-wide and
will be on each Saturday
from 6:00 to 6:30 P.M.
The series was produced
by the American Diabetes
Association of Minnesota
and is being sponsored by
the North Carolina Affiliate
of the American Diabetes
Association as part of its
statewide patient and public
education program.
John Laurents, Executive
Director of the American
Diabetes Association of
North Carolina stressed the
importance of Diabetes
patient education. “From a
three year study of diabetes
in North Carolina it was
determined that 71 per cent
were in poor control of their
disease. A basic lack of
understanding is
widespread among people ;
with diabetes as well as the
general public. Diabetes
today is the third leading
cause of death by disease in
this country and current
evidence seems to indicate
that good control of the
disease can prevent or delay
long term complications.
Because the disease has a
cumulative effect over
many years, most diabetics
fail to recognize the im
portance of property un
derstanding and managing
their disease until its too
late. Personal motivation is
vital to achieving a
measurable improvement in
the health status of the -
state’s 350,000'psrsons with
Diabetes.
