Search For Redfern
Is Almost Given Up
Colon, Panama.?Private Gustay
Pacht. of the United States Army,
ill with jungle fever, returned to his
quarter nt France Field Friday after'
an unsuccessful expedition to the \
back country of Dutch Guiana in |
search <>f the missing American aivator.
Paul Redfern.
He reached Panama on the Dutch
liner Columbia from Curacao, where
he left Tom Roch. the German-Amer- ,
ican explorer who has been his companion
in the attempt to find the flier
who disappeared eight years ago on a
flight from the United States to
Brazil.
Pacht, who obtained a leave from
the Army in order to as ist Roch.
said he believed no expedition could
be successful in the search for Red- ,
fern, who Roch claims still i> alive,
unless r i>* well financed.
The soldier said obstacles in the
jungle proved too much for them de- j
spite the co-op*,ration of the Dutch
jrove rnment.
lie said Indians stole the little expcdition's
entire eciuipment and that
lie would have died of fever in the
jungle except that Roch. 1 'ously ill
himself, carried him to civilization on
his back.
Pacht said he did not want to re-!
turn without Redfern, but that Roch j
insisted on the grounds that he felt
responsible to the United States'
Army for Pacht"s safety.
Farm Work Is Good
For Foaline Mares
More colts will he born in North
Carolir.a this spring than .it any
other time during: the past 10 years,
said R. II. Ruffner, head of the ani- :
mal husbandry department at State ;
College.
A renewed interest in horses and
mules has spread over the State, he I
said, and the high price of good draf: 1
animals has induced many farmers t< 1
breed their own workstock. '
Tin- . aling mare does not need to i
lose a great deal of time from her 1
work, Ruffner pointed out. In fact, 1
ordinary farm work is the best exercise
she can get prior to foaling \
time. ]
He recommended that she work up ]
to the day she drops her colt, then J
be given an eight-day rest. After
the rest, it is better for her and the
colt if she returns to work.
If for some reason however, the 1
dam and foal are not doing well, it
may be best to prolong the rest period.
Meanwhile, endeavor to ascertain
the trouble and correct it as 1
quickly as possible.
Before the colt is dropped, feed
the mare an abundance of legume 1
hay. A 1.200-pound brood mare at '
farm work should get a grain ration
-consisting of 6 pounds of corn, 6
pounds of oats, and 2 pounds of
wheat bran per day.
The first two days after the colt
is bom, do not give the mare any
grain except two pounds of a wheat
bran mash morning and night, Prof,
essor Ruffner continued. On the
third day, a pound of oats may be
added to the mash.
Keep up this light feeding during
the eight-day rest period to insure a
gradual development of the milk
flow and to prevent digestive disturbances
of the marc or foal.
If good pasture is not available,
give the mare all the legume or mixed
hay she will eat.

6 The Cheroke
TREASURY ASKS
LARGEST CASH
LOAN SINCE WAR
Washington, March 1?The treasury
ienight asked the nation for a
loan of $1,809,000,000, including
$800,000,000 to supplement its cash
reserves for relief, farm and bonus
payments.
Interest rates on the offerings of
government securities approximated
the record low costs for comparable
borrowing set last summer
Specifically, the treasury asked for
$1.2.">0.001',til mi ;;; ea^h. the largest
ash request since World War financing.
Of that amount, however.
$450,000,000 was intended for repavmtnt
of short-term loans due
March 16.
In addition, the new securities
were offered in exchange for $559,000.000
in notes maturing April 15.1
Actually the operations would lift
the pros, national debt $*00.<'00.000
?the amount of new borrowing?to
$31,300,000,000. the largest in history.
Temporarily form March 10 to
April 15?the debt will stand at
about *11 RAQ nnO 000 Po>.-ivm,.nl
of the maturing note- will drop it to
the lower total.
The offering- were made to the
money market for the usual quarter
ly financing dat, in mid-March. The
net proceeds are expected to combine
with heavy income tax payments
to give the treasury a "working"
ca.-h balance well in exec-- of
$2,000,000,000.
Farmers Urged To
Fight Own Battles
Raleigh.?L. J. Taber of Columbus,
Ohio, master of the National Grange,
in an address here today before more
than 200 North Carolina farmers, asserted
the L* ited States Supreme
Court*, decision on the AAA had
neither killed the AAA nor taken
from the farmer his right t-< equality.
Taber also spoke at a luncheon
meeting and held a number of conferences
as he -pent a bi-y day in
Raleigh.
Taker urged en hi hearer- the
theory that farmer-* have equal
lights with every other class of citizen.
and he declared the farmer must
fight his own battles. To do that
successfully, he said, he must organize
into an effective grouping.
"The government must and will
do its part, but the farmer ? i t cooperate
with the government. Fundamentally.
the farmer must fight as
other groups, such as labor, for what
he has a right to get." Taber .-aid.
'l'hc Grange head aid the farmci
has a much right to engage in collective
bargaining as labor, "but t<i
have collective bargaining recognized
in the sale of crops, we must have
co-operative exchange.*'
Taher said the government is making
"steady progress" in the agricultural
field, and that the processing
tax and benefit payment provisionare
the only parts of the AAA that
are dead.
He praised the soil conservation,
ub-marginal lands, and resettlement
programs as necessary in constructive
agricultural planning. He demanded
for the farmer an "hone t
iollar," defining that medium as a
lollar on a basis which will prevent
ither uncontrolled inflation or uncontrolled
deflation.
He told the farmers the Grange
in its ten-point program for the year
is advocating such a dollar, a loosening
in foreign credit, shifting of the
land reclamation program from the
Department of the Interior to the
Department of Agriculture, and reicntion
in the Agriculture department
jf the forestry program.
In his luncheon address, Taber said
ready access to credits and markets
is the greatest aid government can
give ine American farmer in his fight
for existence in the machine age.
"The present administration ha;
given us the best system of rural
credit in history," Taber said, "but
we need even further advancement
if agriculture is to develop the all
important qualities of opportunity
and reward for its followers."
Dr. Clarence Poe of Raleigh, editor
of the Progressive Farmer, introduced
Taber as "the constructive
and progressive, but not radical"
leader of the Grange for 12 years.
"Leaders of agriculture must recognize/'
Taber said, "that we can't
go back from the progress of the
machine age and that we mu4 learn
to hold our own in an era that lends
itself directly to development of
economic and political dictatorship.
"if we can't humanize a mechanical
cvilization, we have reached our
zenith.
"The present depression differs
Horn all those that have gone before
in that there is now no west
ind no new frontier to use in cur-j
rg the illness, and the pathway of i
ivilization ha' to be redirected.*' t
