J M tf What Others Think [ Phi) Kearney Offers His Ideas On frobiem To The Public Ledger: As I see it the gravity of the sit uation prompts me to write you again. Authorities of t he Communists are informing their free neighbors that we. have here a caste system more intense than that which for merly existed in India. Also, they say that we iynch 25 ] or 30 Negroes each week Propa ganda of course, though it can cause enough troubte. The Pearsaii pian seems to pro vide limited funds for subscription schools. Those parents who are un able to pay subscription will have to let their children stay away from schooi. Or they can enroll them in mixed schools. A friend of mine said that mem bers of the U. S. Supreme Court should be impeached He didn't say how it couid be done. Another was. or seem'd to be critical of the power of the said court. As for my part I am thank ful for the entire set-up. Under Pearsall plan and the re sult I fear. Both parents are not so well educated and I fear trouble due to children falling out Under the plan I am proposing, I would have a stage of develop ment in citizenship and education. Under this they should not be re sentful. Another probable advantage of my plan, it would provide an in centive for other Negroes toe aim higher. Assuring you that harmony is what I am aiming at.

Morris and located at Jackson, wiii piay host to this year's crowd. The herd of Polled Herefords at Roanoke River Ranch is one of the best-known herds in the east as weii as in North Caroiina. A tour of this top notch herd and in spection of the show herd will be highiights of the event. A judging contest and weight-guessing contest wiii round out the morning activi ties. There wiii be speciai emphasis placed on 4H and FFA competition with a prize Hereford being the top award. Interesting talks will be given by men well known in the Hereford field and will be climaxed by the annual meeting and election of of ficers for the coming year. Last year's field day was held at Green Pastures where a record crowd was assembled. The field day is sponsored, by the North Carolina Hereford Association. The increased demand of the con suming pubiic for red meat and pouitry meat has given considerabie impetus to the broiier and turkey sectors of the pouitry industry. It takes oii, water and air tc maintain proper temperature in your car engine. Check aii three when your engine overheats. Budding Material! ARE NOT Scarce —that i!. NOT at SAMUEL DAVIS HARDWARE in CLARKS VILLE, VA. For the past three years they have been buying their MILLWORK and most of their Bi ILDHvG MATERIAL in CAR LOAD quantities, so their aiiot ments of rationed materia) are iarger titan most of their competi tors. Buying in iarge quantities is another reason why they can seii cheaper. You can save a iot of money on that new house or re modeiing job by buying from them. Ask some of your friends and they wiii tcii you how much they saved by buying from SAMUEL DAVIS HARDWARE, and friends, the quai ity of their materiais is unsurpass ed too Another thing, they wiii de iiver your materiai right to your door and on time too. so that your construction wiii not! be heid up. f) 28 ea fri if NOTICE OF^DMINISTRATION Having qualified as Administra trix, c.ta., of the estate of W.
