Date of the meeting hasn't been set, but Chairman R. W. Winston of the ABC board, at whose suggestion the meeting was planned, said it will be sometime in October. The sheriffs of all counties and chiefs of police of all mu nicipalities will be invited to the parley in the hall of the house and Scott is expected to address them. Its purpose said Winston, was to further hie campaign initiated last May of cutting off the sup ply of liquor into the non-ABC areas?largely the heavily popu lated Piedmont prohibition coun ties. Winston said he had suggest ed such a meeting to the Gov ernor because his campaign to dry up the liquor Bupply was rolling up momentum and he wanted to follow up through eve ry channel. He said he expects to have for presentation to the law enforce ment officers lists of persons to whom shipments of liquor de stined for North Carolina have been invoiced by dealers in oth er states since January 1. In addition he expects to have the record of action brought by the State Department of Revenue in a recent drive' > collect the 8 1-2 per cent state tax on il licit liquor sold at retail. Also, Winston said, he may have at least partial lists of the possessors of federal liquor lic enses in the state.

TUXEDO FEEDS FOR INCREASED PRODUCTION Tuxedo Feed Co. Phone 94 N. \\ ilkesboro Smith Denies Hunt For Ark Was A Failure ? Dr. A. J. Smith, back in Greensboro after his fruitless search for Noah's Ark on Turk ey's Mt. Ararat, denied failure and insisted instead that he helped light the way for later discovery of the Biblical relic. "Not for a minute do I think the expedition was a failure,' the 61-year-old ex-missionary de clared. "This initial work had to be done by someone." Approaching snow and lack of water drove Dr. Smith and his party from Mt. Ararat's slopes earlier this month after they had explored all sides of the moun tain for 12 days. Dr. Smith said he would never return to Turkey or resume his search for the Ark, but he still had hopes a Kurdish friend nam ed Reshit may find the xessel for him. He attributed his giving up the search to his age. At his office at People's Bible School yesterday the Bible work er shook his head sadly and said, "If we only had more time?Just a little more time." Already a group from England and another from the Nether lands are laying plans to try in 1950, Dr. Smith stated. He was pleased, he said, with the great amount of data the expedition gathered on signifi cant scientific discoveries. Mem bers found evidence of geological eruptions dating back to before the flood, information on a giant lake on the west side of Ararat, and traces of strange geological formations in the area.
