SHELL CHEMICAL CORPORATION
ELLIS MOUNTED
Tobacco Transplanter
FOR THE JOHN DEERE MODEL M TRACTOR, FARMALL
SUPER A AND CUB, AND FORD & FERGUSON TRACTORS.
The Ellis Transplanter can be mounted on the tractor or taken off
so the tractor can be used for other purposes as quickly as a team
can be hitched to the oDd style horse drawn transplanter.
The Ellis sets plants as uniformly as the best pull type transplant
er. It combines the uniform depth of planting and flexibility of
the pull type transplanter with the desirable advantages of a moun
ted implement. • •
The Ellis Transplanter is raised clear of the ground by the hydrau
lic lift so it is a fixed implement mounted on the tractor for turn
ing, backing or transporting. But when in operation, the connection
' between the tractor and the transplanter is flexible, so the trans
planter can follow the ground independent of the tractor. This
special feature insures uniform depth of planting.
Steering is controlled by wheels of the transplanter instead of the trac
* tor, a feature which insures even spacing.

Smith Heading New
Senate Committee
WASHINGTON—A way to spend
less money overall on a congres
sional investigation, but at the
same time to pay his top investi
gators more money, is being sought
by Senator Willis Smith.
Smith, chairman of a new Sen
ate Judiciary Subcommittee set up
to investigate alien property inves
tigation by the Department of Jus
tice, has a SIOO,OOO budget for the
investigation and thinks, frankly, it
is too much.
But on the other hand, the $15.-
000 maximum he is allowed to pay
for a chief counsel for his subcom
mittee and the sl4 000 maximum
for a chief accountant, he thinks
is too little for the caliber of men
he will need to conduct the probe.
Authorized salaries in some of the
eieht other posts he’s al'nwed to
fill also are too low. he th'nks.
Despite the fact that 515.000 is
the amount paid members of the
Senate, including $2500 in “free"
expense money, counsel for inves
tigating committees frequently are
paid more, sometimes as much as
$22,000.
So Smith is busy looking for a
gimmick. The Senate has author
ized him to spend the SIOO 000 he
doesn’t want to use entirely, but
it hasn’t authorized him to spend
it the way he wants to. and it may
be hard to get the authorization
amended.
Chappell Opens
Revival Series
An attentive audience heard Dr.
Clovis Chappell, retired Methodist
minister Sunday night as he opened
a series of services at the First
Baptist Church,' sponsored by the
Dunn Ministerial Association.
Using as his theme, “Prayer” Dr.
Chappell held his audience with
his inimitable style of delivery. He
is one of this section's outstanding
preachers, and the series of services
had been postponed because he was
unable to make an earlier date.

Driver Facing
Speeding Count
Highway Patrolman Paul Alber
eine was cruising leisurely toward
Dunn from Erwin. As he passed
Sh"fi’s a '’ar darted out into the
highway from the parking place
scattering gravel as it skidded side
wise and rocketed toward Erwin.
The startled officer swung his
car around and started in hot pur
suit. By the time he had reached
the road leading off 421 to Hodge’s
crossroads, the speeding car had
reached the Erwin Teacherage,
turned around, and was heading
east.
Albergine pulled into the side road
to wait for the car to pass. In
stead, ’ the car swung in front of
the patrol car. and with the driver
"pouring it on” headed north, with
Albergine in hot pursuit.
The chase, which reached speeds
of higher than 90 miles per hour,
carried the patrolman to Hodge’s
crossroads before Albergine closed i
and the wailing siren brought his
quarry to halt.
The driver, who identified hipi
self as Technical Sergeant Phillip
E. Fant of Fort Bragg, was cited
to court charged with speeding in
excess of 90 miles per hour and
careless and reckless driving.

of 1.560 traffic accidents in North
