Every Person In County Is Urged To Work Or Fight At Patriotic Meeting Here Mon. FROM PAGE ONE large crowd present, there being but a few vacant seats in the courtroom. “This is the first war since we won our independence in which we are fighting for our very existence,” he asserted. “Ger many and Japan are out to ex terminate us. They have set out to establish their ideologies and rule the world or ruin it. They are cruel, ruthless and efficient enemies. They have made harsh sacrifices to prepare; Germany forewent food and renounced its personal liberty to get ready; Ja pan is preparing for a 100 years’ war, if necessary, to win.” Mr. Ramsey said 4here was no geo graphical front today; everybody is in the war. “Multitudes of Europeans and Asiactics know that to be true from the bombings they have endured,” Mr. Ramsey as serted, and added that a man who walks off from his job today is a “deserter.” He urged that Ameri cans continue to uphold the war effort to the end that fighting might be kept far from our shores, and expressed the belief that force would not be necessary to induce the few loafers in the county to go to work. As Mayor, Verne Clement en dorsed the movement “100 per cent” and pledged his cooperation in reaching its objective. farm Workers Needed Carl Allison, county commission er, expressed a fear that people would suffer more in the future from war privations than they had in the past. He, too, thought it would not be necessary to compel people in this county to work and he spoke of the urgent need for more labor on the farms. The words of the Governor’s proclamation directed at loafers, County Agent Julian Glazener said were a “stinging indictment.” But, he said, they are a small fraction of our populace. He sug gested that these few could be reached by the joint efforts of the farm committee and the governor’s anti-loafing organization. After expressing his apprecia tion of the efforts in this connec tion of Ed M. Anderson, publisher of The Times, Mr. Straus present ed C. M. Douglas, president of the local chamber of commerce. Mr. Douglas said he thought our peo ple were loyal, since they “always come through” and he spoke of their achievements in sundry war efforts. He thought our few loaf ers could be enticed to go to work, but if not they should be reported to the executive committee. Mr. Douglas said he was proud to tell people wherever he went of the fine war record Transylvania coun ty had made. The meeting closed with the singing of the national anthem, led by the Ecusta band, which also played on the courthouse lawn while the crowd was gathering. On the executive committee of the anti-loafing organization in the j county besides Mr. Straus are: Ralph Ramsey, Mayor Verne Cle ment, Carl Allison, J. A. Glazener, C. M. Douglas and Ed Anderson.

(International) A FOOD FOR VICTORY FILM SHOWN HERE Farmers and other citizens are urged to see a Food-for-Victory picture, which will be shown at the Co-Ed Theatre Thursday night and Friday night at the Clemson theatre. The title of the picture is “20 Fighting Men,” and it is said to be thrilling, dramatic and inspiring. The picture was procured by the B&B Feed and Seed company for exhibition here to foster and maintain interest in the food pro duction campaign. While it was produced by the Purina Mills, Willis Brittain, manager of the B&B company, said it was free of any vestige of advertising and was instructive throughout. Cryolite Controls Vegetable Insects Cryolite can be used as a stom ach poison for a number of insects new attacking Victory Garden vegetables, says J. Maron Maxwell, Extension Entomologist at N. C. State College. Rotenone is scarce and its use is restricted, therefore cryolite is recommended for controlling gar den insects. According to Maxwell, it is slightly poisonous and leafy vegetables receiving applications of cryolite should be thoroughly washed before being eaten. Cryolite is highly recommended for the control of the Mexican bean beetle. It can be used on snap beans before the pods are set and also on lima beans. According to the entomologist, the dusting of cryolite on tomatoes will be found to be effective in the control of tomato fruit and horn worms, and also for flea beetles. It is also recommended for the control of spotted and striped cucumber beetles on can taloupes, cucumbers, and squash. It is the best known method of control for the pickle worm, which enters the fruits of these vege tables late in the season.

Like you, we’re faced with the biggest production job in our history. And, lild& you, we’ve lost many of the men who used to help us. Yet that’s only part of the story. Every day, on farm and factory, there’s something new to test the skill of those running the business. Not only get ting help, but—to mention a few others—rising costs, making a fair profit, and setting aside reserves for a rainy day. Essentially, those problems are the same for farm and factory, though they may at times differ in size. But it is that thing called "management,” that peculiarly American ability to think through problems no matter how tough, that is helping to see us through today. . It is this skill in management that farmers and businessmen have most in common, a skill which insures the realization of our determination to produce all that’s needed for our country today, and, tomorrow, to make a fair living through greater serv ice to our fellow Americans.
