B. F. BUMy; Hopewia, Va. United Dry Forces in North Caro lina, declared in a statement to day that the consumption of in- totxicants ■would not be decreased through Senator John Sprent HUl’s proposed liquor bill in the general assembly, and that revenue from the measure would not prove pro- ning of the .AAA in 1933 up to December 31, 1934. according to Dean I. O. Schaub, of State col- !eg='. However, the fig^ure above does not include all the payments due the growers for their part in the 1934 program, the diaii says, since some of the payments are still being made. Cotton grower.s received the largest amount of the total pay ments. having gotten .$7,090,- 603.16. Tobacco growers came next with payments of $5,658,- 055.02, while com-hog producers received $323,125.01 and wheat growers $70,196.79. The $1,089,916.26 spent in ad ministering the program in this state went largely to pay the wages of county and community committeemen, and farmers ap pointed to assist with the pro grams. Reports received by the agri cultural extension service of State College from the various counties indicate that the work of the county farm agent is be ing more and more appreciated by the great group of thoughtful, progressive farmers who are at tempting to put the agriculture of North Carolina on a profit able, selh-sustalning basis. Dur ing the recent Christmas season, groups of farmers contributed gift.s to the agents in cash, cars, food, clothing and other remem brances. These groups seeming ly realized that the agents have worked day and night for the past two years, especially, giving freely of their time and energy to aid farmers in their prob lems. There have been, of course, some irritations at the oper ations of the compulsory laws but this has been no fault of the farm agents. In every case, they have championed the ca:ise of the farmers and have sought to do that which was he,st under the circunislances. The labor of these agents has been largely responsible for the successful ad ministration of the AAA pro- .granis and for bringing new profits to land-owners. Farmers, on the other hand, have cooper ated with the agents in a com mendable way which speaks well for the future of farming in the j State. I With the new programs plann- | ed for the future, it is felt at the' college that nO county can be \ without the services of these. farm representatives. Story Dellwrs Address FiUed ^itb In teresting FaHsV. Members of the North Wllkes- boro Klwanls Club listened Fri day noon with intense Interest to an address by Prof; T. B. Story about Colonel Benjamin Cleveland and 'Wilkes county in Its early stages prior to and dur ing the American Revolution. The club opened Its meetli g with singing America and ti e invocation by Rev. H. K. King, Methodist pastor. Following the luncheon a number of business affairs were taken up. Chairman of the public affairs committee read a letter from the Morgan- ton club in behalf of the State School for Deaf at Morganton asking the local club to pass a resolution asking the legislature to appropriate as liberally as possible for the support of that institution. The resolution was adopted. Harold Kay, manager of the Liberty Theatre, was taken in as a new member of the club and he was presented with the Kl wanls button by Dr. P. C. Hub- hard. R. W. Gwyn was a guest of J. B. McCoy and Little Miss Emily Olive was a guest of her father. Rev. Eugene Olive. J. R. Hix bad the program and presented Prof. Story, who is secretary of the club. Due to the fact that the business session consumed much of the time Prof. Story did not give all the facts he had in store about Wilkes county’s leading hero in the A- merican Revolution but bis ad dress was of much interest. He stated that Ben Cleveland was of direct descent of Oliver Cromwell, famous in English his tory, and that he was born at Bull Run in Virginia. When he moved to thl.s section while a comparatively young man he set tled on the headquarters of what Is now Roaring River, later mov ing to Ronda. Cleveland was an aggressive hunter and had faced grave dangers in the wilds of the Blue Ridge among hostile Indians. He was influential at the state’s capitol in getting 'WHlkes incorporated as a county and was appointed head of the justic es for the county, as well as head of the militia and bondsman for the county officers. He was Wilkes county’s first representa tive to the legislature. the period ^ the American Revolution Col.' oieveland hang ed a number of tories on the Tory Oak In Wilkesboro and or ganized one of the main units for the Battle of King’s Moun tain, using the historic Rendez vous Mountain between Reddles River and Lewis Fork Creek as a gathering ground for what was one of the most agresslve contingents in the Americans who routed the British under command of General Ferguson at King’s, MonntalD time. » jif ■ JProf.^Btory,went onto relate^ hfait^'AlMit Aowed that Col., Cletolaad waa active tbrouthont thsr war and the number t>f Tories he haaged.
