THURSDAY, AUG, 5, 1943 Post War Planning P. W. Eshelman has been named to head the post war planning activity in Wilkes county. The Post War Planning committee is headed by Paul G. Hoffman, president of Studebaker corporation, and the purpose of the organization is to plan ways and means of providing jobs when the war ends. Robert M. Hanes, of Winston-Sa lem, is North Carolina chairman. Business men and many others realiV.e that industry must provide jobs after the war or the trend toward socialism will gain instead of being crushed. , People must have jobs, means of earn ing a living, and it is up to industry or gov ernment to provide those jobs. Those of us who believe in the American way insist that jobs whenever possible should be provided by private enterprise instead of government. When the government plays Santa Claus too much, the people not only lose their initiative but they lose their freedom little by little until they find themselves living according to the dictates of the hand that feeds them. The mo.st important job is winning the war, but in the meantime there should be some sound plans about the economic well being of the nation when the global con flict ends and millions of men now in ser vice return to their jobs. V Vaccinations Only a few decades ago .smallpox took thousand.s of lives each year in the United States. It has been a long time since any of your neighbors died of smallpdx. But the absence of the di.sease did not. just come about. It was brought about by medical science providing a preventa tive vaccine and by administering that vac cine to the people. Yet there remains today people who re- fu.se to be vaccinated and refuse to allow their children to be vaccinated. The same applies to typhoid and diph theria. Now the county board of health ha.s ruled that the law compelling vaccination against smallpox before entering school be enforced in Wilkes county. If leaving off smallpox vaccinations was a general policy in.stead of e.xception to the rule, the dreaded disease would return to kill and scar the people of our country. It is essential that stubborn people who refuse to accept a known and tried preven tative be ma4e to do what is best for them selves, their families, their friends, neigh bors and all the rest of the population. The law also states that babies be im munized against diphtheria when they reach the age of six months. If your child dies of diphtheria and has not been immunized, how can you help but feel that you were in part responsible for the baby’s death?

Borrowed Comment WHEN THE BOYS COME MARCHING HOME (Oxford Public Ledger) There is much of altruism based u^on sound thinking in the proposals revealed by President Roosevelt for post-war «con- sideration of those in service. There is no doubt but that many of those now in uniform are already concerned with their post-war employment or with plans for “picking up” where they left off in their educational efforts or other en deavors. In making preliminary announcement of studies now being made, the President said six points are under consideration, but he emphasized that in final analysis, Con gress- will determine the measure of con sideration that service men are accorded at mustering out and immediately there after. The man who goes through present-day military training gains in self-reliance and independence. He learns to do things for himself and he does them. The lesson is one he will bring back into civilian life at the end of the war. The service man of today has no intention of asking special favors, but his Government is obligated to him and must be the agency through which he is enabled to get a toe-hold toward re gaining his position in civilian activities. As the President emphasized, the plan as it is now being formulated is for th(; purpose of avoiding a “hasty, inefficient and ill-considered job at the last moment.” LIFE’S BETTER WAY WALTER E. ISENHOUR,. Hiddenite, N. C. SOMETHING FOR NOTHING Perhaps the great majority of mankind want something for nothing. This is ac cording to the natural tendency of the heart apart from God. However, this is not right, especially when it comes to things of great worth and real value. We .should realize that everything worth while costs something, and we should have prin cipal enough to give sufficient for values received. Manj" people want a living, but are not willing to earn it. They know it co.sts others to feed and clothe them, and to meet their expenses in various ways, but they are willing that it shall be done while they fail to give of their time and labor sufficiently to earn it. No doubt tens of thousands of people are living off the gov ernment, or off of charity, many of whom are plenty able to work and make their own way. It is not right. Somebody has to labor and toil for the food they eat and the raiment they wear, therefore it isn’t right for them to idle their time away and depend upon others making their living for them. It is true there are tho.se who are too disabled to work) therefore .some body has to work for them. Again there are those who are honest and willing to work, and want work, who sometimes get out of a job and need help. However, they do not want a living for nothing. It is not their principal. When they can get worjc they go to it willingly and gladly. This is as it ought to be. It means a great deal in life to carry fair with everybody. This hurts no one. It puts no extra burden upon others. Whev we lift and carry your parfiJTiife’s load, and not try to shift it upon others, wd have a clear conscience in that respect. God blesses those who treat their fellows right. No doubt many a strong ' young man idles much of his time away and lets his dear old father labor and toil and make his living for him. Also many a ybung girl who is well able to work lets her mother toil for her, while she lays in the, bed un til a late hour of the day, then: gets up. eats and dresses and Jdunges about, p’ gads around. This certainlj^ Isn’t right No youths can make a success of life y?hc depends upon theip parents feeding and clothing them while they idle and lounge about, or gad around for a “good, time.” Life’a better^ way ia to carry fair heune and everywhere else. ■ DWIGHT NICHOLS et al OAH^NUTG .

It Is awfully hard to rest without first getting tired. But we have been gardening long enough that we can rest leaning oh a hoe handle without first being tired. And that ia an accomplishment.
