?Iff Varrtn Sworb Published Every Friday By The Record Printing Company BIGNALL JONES. Editor ? DUKE JONES. Business Manager Member North Carolina press Association ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AT THE POST OFFICE IN WARRENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, UNDER THE LAWS OF CONGRESS "Second Class Postage Paid At Warrenton, N. C." SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year. $3.00; Six Months, $1.50 A Disgraceful Act Bill Jones, 21, afree-lance photo grapher working for a state dally newspaper, was forcibly robbed of films from his camera at a Ku Klux march at Loulsburg on Sat urday afternoon. Whether or not the young photo grapher was manhandled in the pro cess, whether or not his hand was hurt and his shirt torn by Ku - Klux security officers, as he claims was the case, is beside the im mediate point. The fact remains that his property was taken from him by force, contrary to the laws of this state. It so happened that Bill Jones was engaged in his chosen work and at the time was serving as a press photographer. Not only did he, as a press photographer, have the right to take the pictures, using his own judgment as to their news worthiness, but any person has a legal right to take pictures of any public march. Klan security guards are not po licemen. They have no authority beyond that of any other citizen. On the rented property where the Klan is holding a rally, they may, perhaps, be assigned duties to as sure orderliness, but that is as far as any authority goes. Off such a rented lot, on the streets they have no authority what soever. They simply took the law into their own hands and robbed a young man of his possessions. Franklin County authorities and state authorities know that the law . was violated and that the viola tion was done by uniformed agents of the Ku Klux Klan and that it is a maxim of law that a cor porate body is responsible for the acts of Its agents. Both the Klan and the security guards are re sponsible for a criminal act and we trust that it will not be allowed to go unchallenged by those charged with the enforcement of laws. A Little Cloud On Our Korizon The Raleigh Times When the Ku Wux Klan rents a pasture and holds a rally, it has a legal right to regulate the behavior of any persons who come into that pasture. But, the Ku Klux Klan has no legal right to regulate the behavior of other citizens of the public streets of North Carolina. And, when four Wansmen forced a photographer to give up hla film in Louisburg on Saturday, those Klansman took the law of North Carolina Into their hands and did violence to the maj esty of the law of North Carolina. The young photographer apparently tried to get help from a part-time policeman In Louisburg, and wasn't successful. The Louis A True Story The Roxboro Courier Times We are not quite sure where the follow ing story was printed originally, but it has so much truth connected with it, we are passing it along; A young man lived with his parents in a public housing unit. He attended pub lie schools and participated in the "Free Lunch Program." He entered the Army and upon discharge retained his Nation al Service Life Insurance. He enrolled in the State University, working part time at the 3-ate Capitol to supplement his GI education check. Upon graduation he married a Public Health nurse and bought a home with an FHA loan, then obtained an RFC loan to go into business. A baby was born in the City Hospital. He bought a small ranch with the aid of Veteran's Land Program and obtained emergency feed from the government. Later he put part of his land into the Soil Bank and payments soon paid off his ranch. His father and mother lived on the ranch and very comfortably on their Social Security checks. REA lines supplies the electricity, the government helped him clear his land, the County Agent showed him how to terrace It and the government built him a fish pond then one day he wrote his congressman; "I wish to protest these excessive gov ernmental expenditures and attendant taxes. 1 believe in rugged individualism. I think people should stand on their own feet without expecting a handout. I am opposed to all Socialistic trends and I demand a return to the principles of our Constitution and the policies of states Rights." Quotes 1 * A big lie is more plausible than truth. People who write fiction, If they had not : taken it up, might have become very suc * ? ???*"? liars.?Ernest Hemingway. A lawyer is never entirely comfortable with a friendly divorce, say more than a to finish his Job and have the patient sit m on the table.? burg Police chief said he heard that It had happened, but that the photographer didn't complain to him. This Is a small thing. And, someone In authority had better do something about this small thing before It grows Into bigger and bigger violations of the law. The police In Loulsburg had better make It their full time duty to run down the four bully boys of the KKK who relieved this photographer of his film. The solicitor of this district has sworn to' uphold the law, and It is his duty to run this Incident down and to prose cute those responsible. The State Bureau of Investigation should get into it and stay In It until It has the guilty parties. Governor Moore Is now out of the State attending the National Governors Conference. It Is Important that he be there, but it Is even more Important that the majesty of the law In North Carolina be upheld. The Governor's office here can inform Governor Moore of what has happened, and can get from him a statement assuring the law abiding people of North Carolina that the guilty parties will be hunted down and tried. If the Klansmen get away with incidents such as this, the Klansmen soon could branch out into bigger things. Then, the fat will be In the fire of the KKK's crosses, and North Carolina will be shamed before the country and the world, and North Carolina's law-abiding citizens will be in for heart break and sorrow. What happened in Loulsburg Saturday is a little thing, but little clouds on the far horizon have been known to blow up into big storms. The law-enforcement officials of North Carolina, headed by Governor Moore, can stop this little cloud if they act now. If they don't, North Carolina will have a big storm.

Pott of Warrant* were wad at the tJ While visiting several of the coastal counties this week (July 14) a frelnd asked about the possibility of another plant ing of sweet corn which would mature before frost. Since he is near the coast, where the growing season is longer than In the mountains or Piedmont, I suggested that he take a chance. This brought up the ques tion of sweet corn varieties and the number of satisfactory growing days for maturity. Since sweet corn Is so pop ular for freezing, canning and fresh use I thought it would be of interest to list some of the varieties, giving the ker nel color and days to maturity. You may wish to dip and save this for future reference. We will give the variety name, kernel color and days to mature as follows: Trucker's Favorite, W-75; Bland's Extra Early, W- 55; Adams Early, W-70; Sil ver King, W- 65; Golden Ban tam, Y-80; Seneca Chief, Y-80; Stowell's Evergreen, W-90; Country Gentleman, W-95; Iona, .Y-85; Golden Cross Bantam, Y-65; Aristogold, Y-88; Gol den Security, Y-85.

You may wish to try this one if you want to beat the fall frost deadline. Remember, too, thattheoptl mum period for worm-free ear development is usually from the middle to the latter part of July in the Coastal Plain. The later the corn is planted the more likely for increasing trou ble with Insects. However, you should be able to control the corn earworm with Sevln dust or spray. Use according to In structions on the container. Some folks prefer white corn, some times referred to as "roasting ears," while others prefer the yellow sorts, com monly referred to as sweet or "sugar"' corn. Take your choice.

Klan (continued from page 1) said anything good about the Klan, or bad about the NAACP." A companion Incident oc curred at Loulsburg last Sat urday afternoon when BUlJones, nephew of the editor and son of his business partner, was forcibly robbed of film by uni formed Klan security guards after he had taken a picture of a bit of Klan activity on the streets of Loulsburg. Mars told the editor that he saw the Incident and that the guards took the film because they did not want the picture taken. Bill Jones said the pic ture he snapped was that of security guards roughing up a Negro. A Correction In an acccount of the pro ceedings of the Warren County Board of Education at Its meet ing of July 12, this newspaper Inadvertently stated that Edgerton Rldeout appeared be fore the board seeking to lease the abandoned Snow Hill school. It should have read the Ax tell e Special school. The designation of the wrong school has caused some em barrassment to Charles Wil liams and Moses Kelly who have a deed from the Board of Education to the Snow H1U school. This newspaper regrets the error and any embarass men t it may have caused Messrs. Williams and Kelly. The young mother was ex tremely cautious in bringing up her infant. Visitors were re quired to wear surgical masks, and disinfectant was sprayed and disinfectant \ is sprayed around the room periodically. One day she told her husband: "Junior seems to be cutting a tooth, but I can't get him to open his mouth so I can see." "Well, do as my mother did," the father replied. "Stick your finger in his mouth and feel." When he saw her shocked look, he quickly added: "Of coarse, Mother always boiled her finger first."
