IRISH POTATO MEN LIKE MARKET PLAN College Station, Raleigh. Jan. 4.— Irish potato growers in Eastern Carolina are generally pleased with the cooperative marketing program in operation in 1939 and want it continued in 1940, reports J. W. Johansen, Extension marketing specialist of State college. The pro gram was used in Beaufort, Pam lico. Tyrrell, Pasquotank and Cur rituck counties. Reporting on a survey of 45 rep resentative potato producers, Johan sen said that there are indications that independent growers will re duce potato acreage over that of 1939. "Some contractors state that they will withdraw from the field entirely this year," he stated. Capital Gossip By IIENRY AVERILL Raleigh. Jan. 4.—There are two things more than ordinarily out standing about the letter of J. T. Shoffner, farmer, of Route Number One. Julian, N. C., with which the State is being circularized. (1) It is probably the first time in Tar Heel political history that such a circularization has been done for a candidate (Lee Gravely, of Rocky Mount) who hasn't even an nounced he is running. (2) The post office at Julian has never been overwhelmed with mail of this type. This is shown by the printed authority under Sec. 562, P. L. and R., showing that one cent postage has been paid. These per mits run serially and continue on from one year to another. The per mit on the Shoffner letter is No. 2, indicating that once, and only once, before in its history, Julian's post office sent out such a mass of mail. The circular letter itself. called for election of Gravely because, if chosen, he would be the first lay governor in a long time. "It's been forty-four years since North Carolina had other than a lawyer for its governor", Shoffner wrote. Commissioner of Revenue A. J. Maxwell's haste to rush out a state ment praising Dr. Clarence Poe's re« tirement as a possible candidate lor governor indicated clearly that he ;has no objection at all to becoming the residuary legatee ol' the conced edly strong support the Progressive Farmer editor has among the agri cultural folks of North Carolina. The PAe gesture, said Maxwell, was "in j keeping with the unselfish quality !of this public service as the State's [most useful private citizen." ; The Highway Safety Division es timates that North Carolina's motor vehicles traveled more than four billion, eight hundred million miles during 1939. Which adds up to sev eral trips from home to the office and back. Reg Harris, Person's candidate for lieutenant governor, is in favor of a motion that "the nominations be closed." He told your reporter as much while here Wednesday. "In fact, I've been in favor of such a motion ever since I announced", he cracked. Running against him are Marion's W. Deal, Davidson's L. A. Martin and Stanley's "Erk" Smith. And there's still some talk of Mrs. j J. W. McKee, of Sylva, one of the I few women ever to sit in the North [Carolina General Assembly. II seems definite that Pat Taylor | of Anson will not run. I Incidentally, your reporter hap Ipcned to see a list of lieutenant gov jornor candidates which listed "W. E. Smith", and it took several wrink les of the brow to identify this mem ber of the Skmith tribe as "Erk". It's j »'<invq w. Erskine or just plain j "Erk".
