Give With A Smile
The annual Easter Seal Sale cam
paign is now under way In Warren
County under the sponsorship of the
Warrenton Woman's Club. The
splendid work for crippled chil
dren and adults carried on by funds
donated by interesting citizens is
well known and it is anticipated
that Warren citizens will be gen
erous with their donations.
The drive offers an occasion to
pay tribute to the Warren Woman's
Club for its many activities, and
particularly these of the Easter Seal
campaign, principal project of the
club.
It also offers an opportunity to
call to the attention of the public
the service of the men and wo
men who do the actual canvas
sing for the several fund drives car
riecl on in the county each year.
Warren citizens are generous in
lending a helping hand to the less
fortunate, but without the solicita
tions of canvassers who freely give
their time in a not-too-pleasant job,
the fund drives would not have met
with the almost universal success
that they have.
Even though money may not al
ways be too plentiful, it is much
easier to hand over a few dollars
to a worthy cause than it is to
give the time and do the foot work
necessary in the canvassing of
homes and business houses. For this
reason we ask those who give to
make their gifts with a smile. That
much is due those who serve so
unselfishly to help the less for
tunate.
Will Japan Retaliate?
The announcement by Com
missioner of Agriculture James A.
Graham, executive secretary of the
N. C. Soybean Producers Associa
tion, of the consummation of a sale
with a Japanese firm of 5,000 tons
of Dare County soybeans, is good
news to soybean growers of the state.
In addition it is good news to the
U. S. Government in its efforts to
reduce the gold flow from the coun
try by increasing the balance of
payments due the United States.
Troops overseas and foreign aid
are carrying a considerable amount
of our gold overseas causing ser
ious concern to those in charge of
the fiscal policy of our country. One
way to check this flow is to sell
to foreign countries more goods
than we buy.
But, unfortunately, we can not sell
unless we buy. That is something
to be remembered when certain in
terest seek to erect tariff walls to
stop the flow of competitive goods
into this country.
A case in point is the textile in
dustry, hurt by imports of cheap
goods from Japan. This threat has
caused efforts by the industry to
reduce Japanese imports. We think
this is a natural reaction and are
not sufficiently familiar with all the
ramifications to discuss the matter
with any great deal of intelligence.
But we would point out the ef
forts of the textile industry to pro
tect its markets as an indication
of how complex is the matter of
the economy. Japan buys our tobac
co and is now buying our soybeans,
two crops of vital importance to
Eastern North Carolina farmers.
The question naturally arises that
if we refuse to buy Japans' tex
tiles will Japan retaliate by refus
ing to buy our soybeans and our
tobacco?

in Memoriam
In memory of our wife, dear
mother and grandmother, Mrs.
Olivia Moss Jerman, who
departed this life March 11,
1966.
It seems like only yesterday
That you closed your eyes and
' stole away.
The days have been long, dif
ficult and bare;
The nights full of sadness and
despair.
Many the times we've shed a
tear;
Wishing and hoping that you
were here.
We'ye missed your love and
tender smile
The kind words that made things
right after awhile.
But insptte of our grief,
Our llnaliness and pain
We're hoping and praying to
meet you again.
Por we believe and In God do
trust,
That you too are waiting and
"" tor us.

The ACP which was Initiated
In 1936 has proven to be a real
aid to conservation work over
the years, Watson said. The
program works on a partnership
basis between the farmer and
the Government with each bear
ing about 50% of the cost
In the performance of approved
soil, water and forestry prac
tices.
Although program emphasis
has changed over the years,
the basic purpose of the pro
gram continues to be the con
servation of the Nation's
agricultural resources, Wat
son continued. Funds made
available under this program
aid the consumer as well as
the farmer. In addition assuring
an abundance of food and fiber,
the program also provides sub
stantial fringe benefits such as
beautlfication of our country
side, wildlife preservation and
many others.
The ASCS Office is accepting
requests for practices to be
carried out this year. Farmers
should study their needs and file
their requests for practices
they intend to complete this
year, Watson said.
