Teachers Taking Summer Work Will Relieve Serious Labor Shortage If only two-thirds of the 25.000 teachers in North Carolina who are soon to be taking summer va cations will take essential jobs for the period, the number will be sufficient to fill all of the 16.047 jobs for whic 1 employers in the State have given order. Dr. J. S. Dorton. State director of the War Manpower Commission, ad vises. These teachers will constitute a pool of nearly two million man days and can do much to relieve the serious manpower shortage now existing in the State. Dr. Dorton points out Naturally all are not equipped and trained to take the specific jobs listed, but they can add materially to the war effort by taking jobs and can also add much to their incomes in this higher living cost period Di Cl 'de A Erwin, State sup rintendent of public instructions, has sent a letter to city and coun ty mpeiintcndents asking them to pass on to their teachers the urgency of the manpower prob lem and to advise them that the patriotic thing to do is to get into summer jobs which will contrib ute to : war effort or to civil ian needs All who are not plan ning to lake summer courses to improve their teaching ability, and Dr. Erwin states that such study is desirable, should get into useful activities. Naturally, all teachers who rn'cr the labor market tempor arily will ave no trouble in get ting released from jobs in time to resume their school work in the fall. They should have an understanding with their em ployers when they begin work. Maritime Day Is Next Monday Tie major event of National Maritime Day.

"Stag" BALLENTINE B\ reason of four consecutive terms of service in the State Senate (before that he was a member of his county board of commissioners for eight years) he perhaps knows as much about your State govern ment as any 'egislator to serve in this law-making body during the past decade. He is a graduate of Wake Forest College, a successful farmer and dairyman and has been a mem ber of our State Board of Agriculture since 1941. He is capable, dependable and aggressive. Few men rre more familiar with State's economy cr possibilities and none love it better. He is a member of the American Legion, Baptist Church, Kiwanis Club, Elks Club, and various civic and business groups. His Legislative Record Commends Him To Every Voter Who Wants North Carolina To Stay Out In Front. "H's personal, business, and political life has brcn suh.iccicd to some hard tests. In every instance, be ha measured up to the faith of a legion of friends. I" many years' experience, in close association with the tate'n bigger problems, he has proved solid, understanding, and as progressive as a jealous regard for his State's Welfare would permit him to be." ( Extract from one of many editorials which appeared in the State press following his formal announcement of candidacy.)
