To Lease Land On
Lake For Grazing
To alleviate the pasture
shortage brought on by the
pvtrpmoly dry weather, the
Corps of Engineers Is making
certairt lands in the John H.
Kerr Reservoir area available
to farmers, under short-term
lease, for grazing.
Colonel J. S. Grygiel, Wil
mington District Engineer,
said the land available is in
the six counties bordering on
the reservoir that have been
declared "disraster " areas as
a result of the dry weather.
The disaster area counties are
Vance, Granville and Warren,
in North Carolina; and Char
lotte, Mecklenburg and Hali
fax, in Virginia.
Colonel Grygiel pointed out
that while the available land
is not prime grazing land and
is limited in acreage, it
should. assist the farmers
'through the current crises.
It is offered on a short-term
lease basis, not to exceed 60
days, as well as on a first
come-first-served basis. The
rental rate will depend on
the quality of grazing and the
charge will be made on a per
head, per month basis. The
lessee will be responsible foi
fencing to confine the cattle
to the leased area.
Areas already under lease
or license are not available.
Colonel Grygiel suggests
that interested persons con

IF YOU COULD CHOOSE THE SLOT WHERE YOUR TAX MOHEY COES...
you would probably pick defense, or space ex
ploration, or some other vital government job.
It isn't likely that you'd pick a job for which
there is no need to spend your tax money.
Yet some people keep urging the federal
government to pour a lot of your tax money
into federally-owned electric power plants
and lines, where 5V& billion dollars have al
ready gone.
There's not the slightest need for this kind of
spending. The nation's more than 300 investor
owned electric light and power companies can
supply all the additional power a growing
America will need.
Needless spending of your tax money would
be senseless at any time, but it's downright
dangerous today when so many billions are
needed for essential things.
