Cotton Made
Fireproof
College Station, Raleigh, July 0.—
Jame> 11. Barnhardt. a graduate of
IV. C. Slate College in textile manu
facturing. class of 1935, and his
family have developed at their plant
in Charlotte a process to make cot
ton li: -'iroof, and thereby open a
wide field of new uses for the South's
No. 1 crop. Some government offi
cials are hailing this '"the greatest
thing that has happened to cotton."
"Jim" Bernhardt and his father
and two brothers, who operate the
Charlotte plant, have been experi
menting with processing cotton chem
ically to make it fire-proof for three
or four years. They have been suc
cessful and now the government is
sponsoring a subsidized program for
using cotton as an insulation for
homes.
The fireproof cotton will be manu
factured for sale through the regu
lar building equipment companies.
The new insulating material is much
lighter than rock wool and other
such insulation, it can be manufac
tured at much loss cost, it is cleaner
and easier handled, and the older it
gets the better it becomes as a lire
proofing material.
Insulation, however, is only one of
the new uses for cotton expected to
develop out of the fireproofing pro
cess.
Have Tonsils Removed.
Billy. Bobby and Clyde, Jr., sons of
Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Inseoe. have re
turned to their home after being in
Durham where they had their ton
sils removed.

POSTCARD FROM OUR MOST
FAITHFUL READER:
Dear Closs:
In these clays when slogan?* mean
so much, isn't u ;j shame thai the
G. O. P. nominee didn't run during
the depression when they might have
said, "Wendell we Eat Willkie?"
* * * $
At least one citizen of our lair
town came very near to not living
long enough to move here. We heard
the story the other day ....
He was born prematurely and
weighed at birth a pound and a half.
So premature was hi.-* arrival that
he did not yet possess a stomach
completely enough developed to di
gest milk. Several doctors were call
ed in. but they all agreed that there
was no hope of saving him. A neigh
bor who heard that the baby had no
chance of living came over to where
the doctors were discussing the ease
and asked if she might try something
. . . and the doctors said she might.
The neighbor went to where the
sourdough was kept and took some.
| (In those days bread was leavened
by adding this sourdough instead of
yeast). The neighbor then led the
baby with the sourdough until it wa
old enough to take milk. The baby
(now grown up) explains that t
amounted to feeding him pre-digest
ed l'ood.
About a year later he was large
enough to sleep on a pillow in the
top ol the sewing-machine box ....
where, incidentally, he was sleepim;
one night very close to a river. His
parents were camping in the (sup
posedly) sheltered cove of the river's
bend. The river rose unexpectedly
and when the parents woke up, baby
was floating around the tent on his
pillow, peacefully sleeping.
So-by reason of the sourdough he
is still alive, and by reason of an
early and happy experience on the
water he now lives on the Carolina
seacoast.
Last year a Henderson reader sent
in the following \crse .... an ad
vertisement he had run across. Due
to its having gotten lo?>t it wasn't
used, but .... with apologies ....
here it is:
"When baby chews its little shoe
Just any cleaner will not dn.
You must be sure that what you use
Protects both baby and hio shoes."
Use Beau Peep
It's Pasturized.
"Made lor the baby .... used by
ill! i!h' family."
Ever sincc that ad. arrived we've
been imagining babies eating shoe
poli>h .... and the family doing the
same .... safely, because it's pastur
jized. Once we made a mistake and
brushed our teeth with cold-cream,
I but after reading this ad., we will
I make a sincere effort .... if and
Iwhcn we get absent minded again
I. ... to use the Beau Peep shoe polish
i instead .... because it's pasturized.
We have been plugging AMERI
CAN WHITE PAPERS so religiously,
■ we're beginning to wonder if we
I couldn't persuade Messrs. Alsop and
Kintner to plug CLOSS'S BABY
POEMS when it comes out in the
I fall. The poems try to preserve a
; mama's equilibrium, and the papers
I try to preserve the country's equili
ibrium. They sell for the same price,
| and American White Papers is worth
lit.
i v :j:
! Did you hear about the little girl
'whose mama sent her to the library
'lor a book, and she didn't know what
; it was but she thought it was "Kitty
I Foul"?
D. of A. Meetin?
Vance Council No. 39, Daughters
of America, will meet Wednesday
evening at 8 o'clock in the Junior
Order hall. All members are urged
to attend this important meeting.

Hoey Urges
Control Plan
Governor to Make
Radio Address Tomor
row Night Advocating
Tobacco Control.
College Station. Raleigh. July 9.
—Governor Clyde R. Hoey will make
a radio address (Station W'PTF. Ra
leigh) at 7 o'clock Wednesday even
ing in support of the marketing quota
program on which flue-cured to
bacco growers will vote July 20. He
is one of the scores of administra
tive. agricultural, business and pro
fessional leaders of the state who
have heartily approved the crop con
trol program for the next three years.
E. Y. Floyd. AAA executive offi
cer of N. C. State College, says that
ihis year, for possibly the first time,
every agricultural, business and pro
fessional organization of any note in
North Carolina has given its whole
hearted endorsement to the Federal
farm program for restricting pro
duction in line with demand.
"Last year 162,721 North Carolina
farmers went to the polls and ap
proved marketing quotas on the 194(1
crop by 90.8 percent." Floyd stated.
"This year, the marketing situation
is even worse than it was when
growers voted last October. The Eu
ropean markets have been complete
ly lost for the 1941 season, and
domestic manufacturers have on
hand enough tobacco to last them
nearly three years as a result of ex
j tremely largo purchases last season."
Continuing. Floyd said "This time
| fanners have the opportunity to ap
prove three-year quotas and there
by receive further benefits from crop
control. If three-year quotas are ap
proved in the July 20 referendum. Ihe
Government has promised enough
financial support to protect prices at
or slightly above the 14.9 cents per
pound level of last season. If only
one-year quotas are approved, dom
estic manufacturers will buy less to
bacco and the Government loans will
be unable to protect prices at the
I 1939 level."

British Woman
Captures Nazi
London. July 9.— (AP)— A Bri
tish housewife captured a German
aviator who parachuted to earth in
northeast England after his plane
was shot down in a battle with Bri
tish spitfire lighters.
] Mrs. Nora Cardwell saw him land
ing in front of her home.
"I went up to him." she said, "and
told him to put up his hands and
said. "I want it", pointing to his re
volver.
"He unbuckled it and handed it to
mc and I marched him to the back
yard where some motorcyclists came
along and took charge of him."
Mrs. Cardwell. who was not arm
j ed, said the German was "six feet
; tall and about 25 years old".
"I rushed upstairs and looked
j through my field glasses to see if
I he had any arms." she said.
t She did not see the pistol then
I and went out to demand his surren
! der without knowing he had a ggn
| until she was close up.
Mrs. Cardwell never saw the plane
i from which the German parachuted
and was unable to learn what hap
pened to the rest of its crew.
