Down VoirpDh The Staff r— -TftABS REAPERS L___ YES, WE ARE PROUD! All staff members who con tribute to this human interest column are naturally proud of the high honor that has been bestowed upon our paper by the judges of the newspaper contests sponsored by the National Editorial Associa tion. The United States covers a lot ol territory. Last January we were elated when The Times received first prize in the state contest and this week we were surprised and delighted over the big news that we had won second place in the national general excellencce con test among the larger non-dailies ol the nation. In the United States there are 48 states and over 10, 000 non-daily newspapers. BOND ADS NOT NEW A bill, ■ introduced by Senator Bankhead and providing that the government shall spend between 525,000,000 and $30,000,000 annual ly, advertising the sale of war bonds in newspapers, is now pend ing in Congress. The newspapers are not sponsoring the bill, but naturally most of them believe that its passage would stimulate the sale of bonds. The same plan is used in Canada and England now, but it is not at all new. We didn’t know until today when we were perusing a confidential bulletin of the Alabama Press as sociation that bond advertising— at government expense—was em ployed during the War Between his parents here, Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Middleton. Charley Case made a visit Sun day to see his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Case, and other rela tives and friends here. Charley has been in parachute training for some months. People have nearly caught up with their corn work since the rainy weather stopped, and are cutting wheat and rye this week. Thanks to The Times for the use of an ad that located an elec tric iron for sale. The said iron was sent to the boy in the Navy at Brooklyn, N. Y. the States. The U. S. Bond issue of 1862 was a flop. Salmon P. Chase, then secretary of the trea sury, called in a Philadelphia bank er, who sold the issue by means of advertising. In 1864, the bulletin continues, bond sales had fallen off sharply. The banker was called back and ads were placed in four or five thousand newspapers. For seven months prior to the beginning of the advertising campaign, only $133,000,000 in bonds had been sold; in less than six months there after $600,000,000 worth were sold. U. S. SOLDIERS WELL PAID It is a pretty safe guess that the majority of men who are now serving in the army are earning more than they did in civil life. The Office of War Information estimates that the lowest paid army private receives the equiva lent of $1,700 a year. Here is the breakdown of the income of the lowest paid soldier in the army: Soldier’s cash income at $50 a month, $600; food, figured at $1.50 a day, $574.50; barrack shelter ($10 monthly), $120; equipment and re placement, $170; medical, dental and hospital care, $100; saved on life insurance, $63.40; saved on cigarettes, $10.15; saved on laun dry, $32.50; saved on postage and barber bills, $28.65. I NICE ORDER Brevard etching: Paul Smathers’ attractive blonde daughter show ing Paul the mail, just in, until Paul indicated one envelope whose contents he wanted to see. It hap pened to be an order for four pieces of machinery, sold by phone, to a man in Connecticut, who en closed a check big enough to buy a nice car B. P. H. (before Pearl Harbor.) There was nothing un usual about that, Paul said, except the size of the check with this i order. He sells machinery' all over ! the U. S.—that is, when he has it to sell—and said he had enough stuff to rebuild on hand now to keep a force of six men busy from now until fall if he got no more business of any kind. Paul has some ambitious plans for expand ing his business which he expects to proceed with just as quickly as the Allies exterminate the vermin. BIG SPUD CROP Card from W. H. Sutton, at Lake Toxaway, says this year his Vic tory crop of Sequoia seed potatoes is five times as large as ever be fore and “perhaps as fine as you will see in the state.” He expects a representative of the N. C. Crop Improvement association to make an inspection soon. Unable to ac cept his invitation to see them, we have asked him to supply some data for an article in The Times. Incidentally, the food and feed crop in Transylvania county at this time is exceedingly bright, thanks to the astute leadership and inspiration of County Agent Glazener and his staff and the ef forts of our people. S. C. REBELS AGAIN According to a news dispatch from Spartanburg — the home of the “assistant president,” Jimmy Byrnes — the S. C. Democratic ex ecutive committee has unanimous ly refused a request of the national executive committee for financial support in the 1944 Democratic campaign. The significance of this dispatch isn’t the amount of money that will be denied the national Demo cratic organization, for South Caro lina Democrats have never been lib eral contributors. It is meaningful because party officials in a state hitherto democratic without reser vation or equivocation thus signify their hostility to the national lead ership. It is certain, according to Dr. Stanley High and other political pundits, that FDR wants to suc ceed himself. Is that why the S. C. Democrats refuse to donate to the 1944 campaign, which is likely to be the most critical since the 60s? It could be that, or a number of other things. Time will tell, but, regardless of the reason, or rea sons, the defection of S. C. Demo crats is deeply significant.
