The use of chemicals and ro

combatting nematodes were' pro
posed by S. N. Hawks, Jr., at a
meeting of farmers held in the
courthouse at Lillington last night.
Hawks, a tobacco specialist at
State College, recommended the
use of methyl bromide, but stress- ,

than the continued planing of to

Although the use of chemicals
definitely helps in control, he
warned that continued use might
damage the farmland. He said that
the State College experiment sta

determine the effect over a long
period of time.

broadly from the reviewing stand in Washington as cowboy Monte Montana demonstrates his dexterity
with a lariat. The Montanan had been giving the parade crowd something of a thrill with his rope
tricks, when he spied the Chief Executive and motioned to him. The President agreed to go along with

Dulles Warns
Loyalty Will
Be Demanded
WASHINGTON (IP) Secre
tary of State John Foster
Dulles opened his foreign po

a warning to 16,500 U. S. di
plomatic employes that the
highest “competence, disci
pline and positive loyalty,,
will be demanded of them.
Anything less. Dulles said, wtll
not be tolerated.
The 240-word message was dis
tributed to all State Department
employes in this country and rad
ioed to 300 American missions in
75 countries. It was his first move
to restore the prestige of the U. S.
diplomatic service, damaged by
disloyalty in the past.
While he called for “positive loy-.
alty” the new Republican ad
ministration’s policies, Dulles em
phasized that "loyalty does not call
for ony one to practice intellec- j
tual dishonesty or to distort his)
reporting to please superiors.” He
said the United States can have
effective foreign policies only if its
overseas diplomatic representa
tives send home “honest evalua
tions of the facts.”
The message was delivered at
home and abroad as Dulles moved
into the fifth floor suite of offices
