Orange County Group Adopt
Plan to Exempt Small
Farmer in Reduction
College Station, Raleigh. Jan. 4
General sentiment regarding the crop
adjustment programs is reflected in
resolutions adopted this week by the
Orange County Board of Agriculture,
said Dean T. O. Schaub, of State Col
lege.
The resolutions oentered chiefly
around the interests of the small far
mer who lives on his own land and
depends upon the products of the farm
for his livelihood.
It was recommended, according to
Don Matheson, Orange county farm
agent., that small farmers living on
their own land who have raised to
bacco within the past Five years be
allowed to market tax free an allot- j
ment of tobacco equal to the largest
amount produced in any one of the
base years, provided their crop does
not exceed three acres.
No rental or benefit payments should j
be given to this type of cooperator, it [
was recommended.
It was also suggested that small
growers who have already signed 1935
contracts be allowed to come mider
the above ruling.
Small cotton farmers on their own j
land who have raised cotton within |
the past seven years should he allow
ed to sell tax free in in 1935 an al- ,
lotment equal to the production of j
their largest base year, but not in I
excess of two hales, the resolutions !
pointed out.
The board submitted the 10 fol- j
lowing reasons why the foregoing re- '
commendations should be adopted:
Farm and home ownership would i
be encouraged hv providing more li- ■
beral allotments for tenants and new :
farmers wishing to buy land.
Tenancy and absentee land owner- j
ship would bed iscouraged.
The price of farm land would be j
stimulated.
Mis-’-fits living In the cities would ;
he encouraged to move hack to the !
farm.
Farm wealth would be distributed j
more equitably.
Production would he on a more i
economical basis by not forcing the !
small grower to limit his crop below j
the point of efficiency.
Those who diversifeid their farm- .
ing before ihe depression would not I
be penalized by unfairly low allot- I
ments based on their recent past pro- |
duction.
The burden of the cotton and to- !
hacco tax on excess production would j
not bear on the shoulders of the j
small grower.
The future of the AA’A program i
would be on a more secure basis since |
most of the farmers would be better i
satisfied and there would be fewer ;
vulnrable points in the program.
Th ■ rights of the small man would
he upheld.
The resolutions closed with a com- -
mer.darion of the Crop adjustment pro j
grams and a statement htat Orange
county farmers voted 99 per cent for
the Iverr-Smith act and 10 to one for
the Bankhead act. Copies were sent
to Washington official* of the AAA j
b\ \Y. A. Davis Secretary of the
Orange County Board of Agriculture.

Peter’s Conversion and Call

John the Baptist unselfishly pointed his disciples
Andrew and John to Jesus, saying, “Behold the
Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the
world” They followed Jesus and spent the night
With him and came to know him as the Saviour.
Question New Deal
As Constitutional
(Continued from Page One.)
New Dealers’ ranks on Capitol Hill
clearly are of the opinion that the
Federal Supreme Cour e will" uphold
all essential New. Deal policies. They
do not argue that all these policies
are constitutional. As to many of them
(at least as many as are referred to
by Dr., Commons), they argue the
contrary. What they do say is that,
in major part., they think the Su
preme Court Will sustain them.
ELECTION MEMORY
The average politician cannot con
vince himself that recollection of the
exceeding one-sidedness of 1934’s elec
tion day result will not weigh with
some of the august nine, of the Su
preme Court lineup, when the pro
blem of the New Deal’s constitution
ality is presented to them to answer.
No political guesser assumes that
the bench will he unanimously pro-
New Deal.
It may be “less majeste” to guess
at all cn the Supreme Court.
A deal of it is being done, never
theless.
DISAGREE
Dr. Commons evidently bases his
forecast on the supposition that his
interpretation of the constitution is
correct, and on the further supposi
tion that, granting its correctness,
the Supreme Court will arrive at
conclusion approximately the same as
his own iby as politically uninfluenc
ed a process of reasoning as the on**
he has been guided by.
Plenty of politicians indorse his
process of reasoning, hut not his as
sumption that the Supreme Court will
he politically uninfluenced.
They do not say that the New Deal
will be upheld by a unanimous Su.
pveme bench or in its absolute en
tirety. But the doctor says that.
“Most” of it will be upheld, in the
politicians’ judgment.

A year later Jesus found Peter again by the Sea
of Galilee at his work of fishing and said, “Come
ye after me and I will make you to become fishers
of men.” Immediately he went with.-Jesus to

name occurs more often in the gos- j
pel records than the name of Peter, j
He is easily one of the Bible’s most
fascinating characters, often right,
often wrong, but always interesting
Jesus’ first contact, with him came
at the very opening of the Saviour’s
public ministry. When John the Bap
tist unselfishly turned his disciples
over to Jesus as their Messiah, say
ing, “Behold, the Lamb of God!” One
of these disciples was Andrew and
to him we are indebted for Simon
Peter. For of him we read: “He
findeth first his own brother Simon,
and saith unto him. We have found
the Messiah He brought him unto
Jesus.”' Andrew was a real brother!
And the most brotherly deed he ever
performed was when he told his broth
er Simon of his new-found Saviour
and brought him to Jesus.
Simon Becomes Peter
Jesus saw in Simon a diamond in
the rough. He who “knew what was
in man” saw tremendous possibilities
in this lough impetuous fisherman
of Galilee, and 'gave him a new name
symbolic of the new Creation he was
about to evolve from the raw ma
terial Andrew brought him: “Jesus
looked upon him and . said. Thou art
Simon 'the' Son of John; thou shalt
be called-Cephas• (which is by inter,
pretation, Peter”), meaning . Rock.
Thus it always is with the, eyes of
love: they see us- not as others see
us, or even as we see ourselves, but
as we nfay yet by the grace and
help of God. And best of all, Peter
justified the prophesy of his Saviour
in becoming a man of rock. Thus
Jesus inspires men to become what
no one else dares to dream they may
be. His prophesy that Peter should
be called a rock became a creative
inspiration to Simon.
“Fishers of Men”
A full year after that first contact
with the Saciour and their becoming
disciples of his he met them again
as they were plying their trade b>
the seashore, and called them away
fi’om their nets and boats to become
“fishers of men.” “And Jesus said un-
One day Peter took Jesuit from the synagogue to
his home where Jesus healed Peter's mother-in*
lkw ©f a fever. % That evening many sick folk
were brought to'the door and Jesus healed them.
Eerly next morning he went out to a desert place
IGOUHSIf ’.jbtaG&nfaA I'll*
Jto them, Come ye after me, and I
j will make you to become fishers bf
men. And straightway they left the
nets and followed him.” Peter and
the others must be followers before
they could be leaders. Christ's order
is ever thus: “that, they might be
with him, and that he might sertd
them forth.’” Wie must first find and'
know Christ before we can help-oth
ers to find and know him. Further
more, Christ seeks his workmen a
mong thofee _ who are busy and which
accounts for the eagerness with
which they seized his challenge to
give themselves fully to his service
in catching men instead of fish.
