After a hot, dusty drive in an open car through the Penderle a Resettlement Project, Mrs. Roos evelt returns to Wallace to be greeted at the home of Dr. and Mrs. J. D. Robinson for .uncheon. Shown on the porch of the Robins on home are, left to right, Dr. Robinson, Mrs. Robinson, Senator Robert R. Reynolds, Mrs. Roosevelt, Governor Hoey, Mrs Hoey, and Mayor Aubrey Harrell, of Wallace, who arranged the Strawberry Festival and Mrs. Roosevelt’s appearance. GENERAL NEWS MURDER AND SUICIDE N. Archie Brown, Raleigh tailor, on last Saturday shot and killed his estranged wife, wounded Mrs. R. D. Upchurch, his sister-in-law, and then killed himself. Mrs. Brown had left her husband a week before. Separate funerals were held for the couple. A son is left, but he sailed recently for South America and will probably not learn of the tragedy before landing. MAHRAJAN LARGELY ATTENDED The Mahrajan, Syrian festival was attended by more than 1,000 persons when it opened at the Fair grounds in Raleigh last Sunday. Among the notables present was Governor Hoey. In his address Dr. Elkourie of Alabama, president of Southern Syrian Clubs, urged his hearers to demonstrate that they can be good Americans while carry ing on the traditions of their race. George Hamid, well known as man ager of State Fair, also spoke, say ing that Syrians owe a debt to this country for the freedom and oppor tunity found here. A picnic dinner was served. The festivities con cluded with a ball at the Audi torium on Monday night MANY DROPPED FROM ROLLS WPA workers on many projects in North Carolina are being noti fied, or have already been told, that their work is being discontinu ed or reduced The names of 3,780 persons have been dropped. In some cases no warning had been given, the news coming as a distinct surprise. However, many WPA workers have found other employment oi have been transferred to other fed eral agencies. WOULD ORGANIZE U. S. EMPLOYES John L. Lewis, head of the C. 1. O. is making an effort to organize federal employees into a union. Lewis' brother, formerly assistant administrator of the WPA, will head the new organization. Many are wondering if workers thus banded together would strike against the government, and wheth er they might tie up affairs to the vast detriment of the public good. Already there are two organiza tions for federal workers with a combined membership of 76,000. THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CA ROLINA, FRIDAY, JUNE TWENTY-FIFTH, 1937.

Mr. Davis is well known in ! this section of the county, and has taken an active part in Agricul tural,, Educational, and Religious Programs effecting this section. A ‘ large majority of our growers will be glad to learn that he will serve as a community committeeman again, this year. County Agent, Jno. C.

Mrs. W. T. Boss Speaks In Raleigh Raleigh, June 23.—Speaking in Raleigh recently before a meeting of orphanage officials of North Carolina, Mrs. W. T. Bost, Com missioner of the State Board of Charities and Public Welfare, as -1 | serted that “if we could have but one generation of properly born, trained, educated and healthy child ren, a thousand other problems of government would vanish.” “We would assure ourseles of healthier minds in more vigorous bodies,” Mrs Bost continued, “to direct the energies of our nation to yet greater heights of achieve mepts. „ “Perhaps, through the Social Se curity program, we are even now on the road to that goal. Certain ly we must center our endeavor more than ever around the needs of the child and make him in truth the cornerstone of society. We must give him the chance from birth, and even beyond, to be a bet ter-bom child, and to help him throughout the period of happy childhood.” “Social Security legislation is today very definitely in the fore ground,” Mrs. Bost said “But anyone is mistaken in think ing that everything necessary is already being done by the govern- alone cannot do the job. The So- 1 cial Security Act providing .... aid to dependent children • ... is not intended to replace money now being expended by states, local communities, or agencies supported largely by priate gifts . . . “Children’s institutions and child-caring agencies—state, coun ty, municipal and private—are ex pected to continue to carry the load they now have and to meet those j new demands which each day brings, and citizens are expected to continue the support of these agencies through voluntary contri butions or state and local taxes. “The Social Security Act. in pro viding aid to dependent children, gives evidence of long-range plan ning for the future. It stands out as the greatest opportunty for con structive work with children that has ever been available to the na tion.” CORINTH (Too late for last week) Howard Denton and family of near Zebulon spent the weekend with J. T. Davis. Mr. and Mrs. B. B. Richardson of near Zebulon were visitors of Henry | Congleton and family during the weekend Joe Cope of Raleigh stopped by to see his father D .A.

STREET IMPROVEMENTS Zebulon's new tow r n commission ers are starting off their adminis tration in away to please the peo ple. The sidewalks in much of the town and on some of the most traveled streets were in very bad condition. They were weed-grown and washed badly with ruts and gulleys. A number of these have been leveled and built up till they look real citified. And the good work is. still going on. We hope a man may be kept busy this sum mer and fall looking after the side walks of the town. The cost will not be great and it will mean a great deal to appearances as well as the comfort to those who travel over the walks. Farmers in Martin, Tyrrell, Hyde and Washington counties co-i operated to sell 400 lambs in a pool recently held at Plymouth GOOD FISHING NOW at Hilliard’s Lake 5 Mile* South of Zebulon for 50 cents, two persons may fish all day Uncle Jim Sa tjs | Livestock production and soil conservation go hand in hand. Crops that conserve the soil make good forage, and manure from live stock will enrich the land. L • MALARIA PROJECT A campaign to free the state from malaria has been begun. Ditch es and other mosquito breeding places will be cleaned up. The cost will be borne in part by the WPA.
