R. T. Lloyd Returns
To County Duties
Permanent Holding Of Relief
Cattle For Randolph
County Announced
Robt. T. Lloyd has received a call
for twenty-one young men from Ran
dolph county for CCC camps. They
must be relief subjects or eligible for
relief, as has been the case for pre
vious calls. January 6th, 1935, is the
date set for reporting for the camp.
A further bit of information from
Mr. Lloyd of interest to the people
of Randolph is concerning the allot
ment for rural rehabilitation cattle.
The total permanent holding for the
county is set at three hundred. Others
are sent into the county thence to the
slaughter pens.
Interesting also to all citizens of
Randolph county is the fact that all
unemployables will on January the 1st,
revert back to the county as wards.
The term unemployable is defined as
persons or a family where no per
son in the entire family is physically
or mentally able to work. The aged
also come under this bead. These per
sons have for sometime been on Fed
eral relief rolls, which was designed
primarily for persons thrown out of
employment by depression. Although
the government has allowed such per
sons on the Federal rolls temporarily,
they must now revert to the county
where the burden naturally rests.
Mr. Lloyd has for some months been
supervising the Federal work in Ran
dolph, in addition to his primal duties
as county superintendent of welfare.
This extra Federal work was shoulder
ed by Mr. Lloyd and executed with
no addition to salary whatever. He
will however, return to his position as
Welfare superintendent in the near
future. Direct orders for this are ex
pected momentarily. It was deemed
wise by Mr. Lloyd that the citizens
of Randolph be informed concerning
this extra load of unemployables. The
county commissioners were apprised
of this fact at their last meeting.

to put it into operation about the first

The plant, capable of employing
about 150 hands, has been closed for
about a year and a half, but most of
the former employees own homes in
Lexington and have continued to re
side there.
The plant was rebuilt several years

Dewey C. Bulla
Issues Ultimatum
Chief of Police Dewey C. Bulla
states that the new city license
plates are no on sale at the City
Hall. He urges the people ofAshe
boro to secure these new plates
as soon as possible in order to
save confusion. These new tags,
according to Mr. Bulla, should at
least be bought by January 1,
1935, if possible.
When asked about the new
parking laws, Chief Bulla said
that the motorists were not very
conscientious about observing
them, but improvement was being
shown. Cars should be parked
in the spaces designated for them,
and should not go over this space,
unless it cannot be helped. This
will give more room for other cars
and at the same time add much
desires the whole-hearted coope
ration of each motorist in this
beauty to the streets. Chief Bulla
new plan, and feels that they will
do their part.

Local Banks Will
Comply With Federal
Banking Rules Jan. 1
The local banks have announced a
reduction in the interest rate on certi
ficates of deposit and savings deposits,
to two per cent (2%) per annum, be
ginning with the 1st day of January,
1935. This is an adjustment made ne
cessary by prevailing business condi
tions and is in line with action taken
by the Federal Banking authorities.
It is believed that a general reduction
in the interest rate will stimulate busi
ness activities and assist in improving
the business conditions generally over
the country. A similar step has been
taken in leading business communi
ties. The 2% rate has already been
adopted in numerous localities, includ
ing Charlotte and Greensboro, and
soon will, it is believed, be general
throughout the country.

cated the thieves not only had a sweet
tooth but had an eye to giving Christ
mas presents.
At the Asheboro Drug Company,
Parker fountain pens amounting to
around $60.00, candy, cigars, ten dol
lars in money and probably some other
small articles which have not been
accounted for were taken. Two vanity
cases and homemade candy amounting
to $10.00 were taken from Trickett's
Tea Room and two razors valued at
$6.00 were missing from the barber

Christmas Eve
Oatributions
v~ Aided Workers
Have Worked Tirelessly
aithfully With Junior
Woman’s Club
__ :mbers of the Junior Wo
club are asking all children
whom they have visited recently, and
told about the Christmas tree to meet
on Christmas eve at 7:00 o’clock at
the vacant lot between the two rail
road stations for the gifts to be dis
tributed. Santa Claus arranged' with
the members of the club sometime ago
about helping them at Christmas time
by distributing gifts for them at this
time. Since then these young women
have been busy trying to carry out
Santa’s wishes, because he told them
exactly what he wanted these little
boys and girls to have.
At the same time Santa arranged
with the members of this club, he also
enlisted the aid of the firemen, who
have been collecting and mending toys
for several weeks. This is no new
thing for the firemen as they, too,
have rendered a similar service to the
community in previous years. For
sometime wagons have been made
new, choo-choo trains have been re
paired, baby dolls cheeks rouged and
arms mended ready for some good
girls and boys on Christmas eve.
The committee from the Junior Wo
man’s club wishes to thank the many
people, who have cooperated with this
movement instigated by Santa Claus.
The firemen also express appreciation
to the many people, who have coope
rated with them, and they promised to
tell Santa Claus of these good deeds.
Those who have contributed to data
are: Rotarians, $20; Red Cross, $20;
