'i boeo, North Carolina, aa teeond-claaa matter onto of March 4, 1879. MONDAY, JUNE 14, 1943 KM>w4iow aa«l Tahk*— A^ over the country, in hundreds of >var production plants, managers, engineers, designers, mechanics, assemblers, and oth ers are demonstrating the industrial know- iow that has so long played a vital part of our industrial growth and progress in both peace and war. From plant after plant came reports of savings—savings in the use of critical ma terials, in time required for production, in overall manufacturing costs—savings in design, fabrication, assembly, and in ship ping space. One automobile company alone was able to save the government $169,178,141 on last year’s production. This amount is equivalent to giving the government—cost free—1,000 medium tanks, 200 torp,edo boats, 2,000 anti-aircraft cannon and 450 interceptor planes. In hundreds of other cases exceptional savings in time, money, and material have been made through the application of mass production technique and the development of entirely new manufacturing processes or in the application of entirely new princi ples or products. For instance, the 45-calibre submachine gun which before th^ emergency cost the government $225 has been replaced by an equallr'effective weapon which costs only $21. And in another case the 50-calibie aircraft guns which used to cost $1,000 can now be produced for $400 i^ fbe redesigns 52 pounds of steel and 2 pounds of bronze are saved. V Overwhelming Production— In his first speech since he was named Director of the newly formed Office of War Mobilization, James F. Byrnes, pre sented some conclusive figures on over whelming war production; “The 100,000th plane manufactured since we began our war ■ production pro gram came off the assembly line today," he said. “During the year, we will double the size of our fleet. “In the month of May this year we pro duced three times as many pieces of artil lery for ground troops as we did in all nineteen months of the last war. “We are building merchant ships four times as fact as they are being sunk. “America has turned out 2,225,000 ma chine guns since it began to rearm. “In 1943’s first five months 100 fight ing ships were finished—almost as many as were finished in the entire year of 1942. . “Our production of high explosive pow der has been six times greater th^n dur ing the last war. “We have shipped to lend-lease coun tries almost twice as many motor vehicles as we produced for ourselves alone in the last war. If all these vehicles were park ed bumper to bumper they would reach twice across North Africa.” Mr. Brynes went on to describe the re- markabf? achievements of America’s new inveptions such as radar, the locator which is giving us fighting superiority over the Axis, the new destroyer escort v'hich is •liunting down enemy subs, and other in genious new developments. This tribute is paid to the same Ameri can industry which the Axis powers thought capable only of producing refrig erators, washing njachines, and other es sentially J>eacetime products. Little did our enemfes realize that while free Am«ican enterprise was engaged in manufacturing the everyday conveniences which gave to tjhe American people the h^fhast Kviijg standiUQd in the world, it ; "iA sicmi^ANiryidfcSf ' ' (Winston-^leffl JouruaJK - . In the attack leading to the uncondli^ tional surrender of the Kalian stronghold of Fantelleria the devastetifif' power of the aerial arm when concentrate ,ed against a specific military pbjectlvq h^ been dramatically and convincingly dembn- •strated. ’> / It is significant that the Axis forced oil the island raised the white flag before any ground forces had landed. The island ap parently had been literally pulverized into submission,-largely from the air. Although the British Na^ also had shelled the island on two or three oecasionst the greater dam age was done in the alirtost incewant rain of destructive bombs from the skies. Most of this bombing, according to ports, was carried out by American Flying FbrtreSses in daylight precision bombing attacks. Thus the result of the campaign against Pantelleria provides new proof not only of the advantages of air. power when properly employed, but also of the efficien cy of daylight precision bombing. In this connection, we note that Emil Ludwig, the famed German writer, de clares that Germany can and probably will be brought to defeat and surrender through the continued and expanded employment of Allied air.power. The people can’t take this terrific bombardment from overhead, he contends, and a land invasion of Ger many will not be necessary. He may be mistaken in this, but it becomes increas ingly evident as the Allies step up their aerial assaults, that the airplane may play a mere vital role in breaking the resistance of the Axis Powers, both in Europe and in Asia, than many believed a few months ago. • . V LIFE’S BETTER WAY WALTER E. ISENHOUR, '' Hiddenite, N. C.

Super Snooper has no picture, and for a very reason. When Super Snooper went to have hia picture made, the pho tographer -was scared, to death by his appearance. RUSimD TO CONCLUSION^ jWe ha-Ve been Informed that Su per Snooper la going to challenge our statement about his being drunlc when he tint a penny in a che-wing gum machine and record ed his weight by the to-wn clock. He says We rushed to conclu sions. He says that he was not drunk, and that just because he thought the town clock was penny' scales, because he had difficulty pro nouncing words when he wettt home, because he pulled off his clothes in the living room, and be cause he wore his hat to bed, that we rush to the conclusion that he ■was drunk. the devil. There is no doubt about this. Sin enslaves, and the devil is the author and instigator of all sin. He imposes every evil, wicked, binding, slavish habit upon man that he can; and all who are under his influence are enslaved by something. If it is not a bad habit, or one of less con sequence, it is an evil temper, or a wrong inclination. It is something that binds the soul, spirit and life. We see people everywhere bound by sin. They are the devil’s slaves. Sin reaches from the lowest to the highest and binds its subjects. It enters into all classes of mankind, all colors, all conditions. It cov ers the globe. Only the power of God can deliver us from the power of the devil and sin; and God only delivers those who come to Him and 5-arrender themselves completely, soul and body, mind and spirit, time and talent, unto Him. The true Chris tian is the only one that is not enslaved by the devil. God has broken every fetter the devil- had nim bound with and set him free, and will keep him free as long as he will serve and worship God acceptably and obey Him faithfully. ‘ - It is pitiful to see people bound hard and fast by sin. They grope and grovel their way through life as bondslaves of the devil, the archfiend of the pit, the enemy of God and all mankind, the destroyer of peace and happiness, health and strength, and the final destroyer of the soul. We of ten v/ond?r just why men will surrender their lives unto him when they could be set free by the wonderful power of God, live nobly and successfully, wield a good and great influence for God and humanity, then die in the triumphs of faith and vic tory and reach heaven; whereas they go bound all their lives by the devil and sin, waste their time and talent and much of their means, wield an^ influence that curses the wdrld, then die unprepared to meet God and go into eternity’s night forever lost. O careless soul, turn to God I Why- go bound by the devil all your life on earth, then go into eternity hound by him and his awful fetters of sin? Indeed sin enslaves. Every human be ing that is living in sin realizes'this as a solemn fact that cannot be denied. The vast multitudes of earth are the bond» slaves of sin and the devil, and go thrquifh liJfe that way.

CHANGED HIS OPINION— The story is told that Winston Churchill recently hailed a cab. in the West End and told the cabbie to drive him to BBC, -where he was scheduled to make a speech to the world. Driver^—Sorry, sir, yell have to get yourself another cab. I can’t go-fhat r£ar. • v j Mr. Churchill was somewhat surprised and asked the cabbie -why his field of operation was so limited. Driver (apologizing)—It hain’t horidnarily, \ir, but ye see, ^sir, Mr. Churchill is broadcasting in an hour and I want to get 'onte to ’ear him. Churchill was so well pleased he pulled out a pound note and handed it to the driver, who took one quick look at it and said: Driver—Hop in, sir.

So far as regards the charge of drunkenness, there wes nothing unusual about that. But the case of trespass proved a horse of ano ther coioh. Or we might say, a mule of another color. For Ar- phew wuB tried and convicted up- 0^ a charge that he wilfully did ride a mule into one door of the Blscoe Cotton Mill, through the entire plant and out the other door, making his way through a lane of machinery whirring at full blast. The same providence that usually looks after drunks was ap parently working for Arphew, for not -once did, he or the mule de viate from .the narrow patl^h meant safety or sudden dnkdihr. Unlike Balaam, whe-met with an obstruction, Arphew and his mule had right of way, and neither was damaged. '' On the charge of trespass pray er for judgment was continued for a period of two years upon condl tlon that Arphew violate none of the laws of the,.state. A SO-day road sentence w%s also meted out. The United States produced more than 10 billion rounds of small ammanitlonilast year. PVT. SAM WRITES— Pvt. Samuel Harris, the colored hoy who used to sweep and run errands around this office, is now way out in the wide open spaces et Fort Hauchuca, Arizona. Pvt. Sam writes us as follows: ‘‘Hello, Dwight: I get your pa pers every week and I enjoy them so much. I really enjoyed seeing my name and by brother’s name in the paper. How is everything in North Wilkesboro? I sure miss that place a lot. Do you all miss me there? Tell Mr. Carter and Mr. Hubbprd I said hello. Is Ki- zer still there? Tell him I said hello if he lu. Is Mrs. Mable still there? Seems that I don’t have much to write about tonight but I do want to hear a lot from good old Wilkes, and- you are the one to tell it.
