Candidate for Sheriff, Wake
County
GEORGE H. JORDAN AN
' NOUNCES FOR SHERIFF
George H. Jordan, 48 years of
age, born and reared in Wake
County, has announced his candi
dacy for sheriff of Wake County
to oppose Sheriff Turner who has
held office for twelve years.
Mr. Jordan is a veteran railroad
employee, having been connected
with the Seaboard, Southern and
N-S Railroads for more than twen
ty years. For a number of years
he was a successful merchant and
for the past several years has en
gaged in farming and real estate.
He has served as a justice of the
peace and as Mayor of Cary. A
strong Democrat, he is a grandson
of the late H. B. Jordan, who was
one of the strongest Democrats of
the county.
Mr. Jordan is or has been con
nected with the Masonic Order,
Odd Fellows, K of P, Juniors, and
P. O. S. A. He is a member of
the Railway Telegraphers Organi
zation and has served on their
j General Committees.
His friends consider him well
qualified for the office of sheriff
of Wake County, and he states he
will be glad to work with any
group or organization toward ef
fecting economy in expenditures
and for a stricter enforcement of
the laws.
Mr. Jordan states that in oppos
ing Mr. Turner he makes no criti
cism of the office or the man, but
believes the majority of the voters
of Wake County favor a change,
and are willing to make one.
POULTRYMA'N CITES
NEED OF FLOCKS
T. T. Brown, extension poultry
man at State College, believes that
every farm should have from 50
to several hundred pure bred hens.
“We are not advocating that
farmers quit raising tobacco and
cotton and go into the poultry
business, but a good flock should
occupy a definite place on every
farm,’’ he said.
North Carolina’s poultry pro
gram could be improved greatly.
At present, most of State’s egg
supply comes in two or three of
the spring months. After that,
1 Whitley & Scarboro, Inc. I
| EVERYTHING FOR THE FARM & FAMILY f
C. R. Scarboro ♦
many wholesalers are forced to go
out of the State to get sufficient
eggs to meet their demands.
With improved fai*m flocks, the
egg supply could be spread more
evenly over the year. Such a con
dition would bring about the es
tablishment of local packing
plants for the handling of surplus
products.
Poultry dressing and storage
plants are badly needed in the
State, but prospective business
men hesitate to start such ac
tivities when they find the inade
quate farm flock and egg supply
except during the spring months,
j Brown said.
Among the excellent markets
begging for quality eggs in North
Carolina are commercial hatch
eries. Hatchery expansion has been
held too closely in check in many
cases because of a lack of quality
hatching egg supply.
MEXICO TO PAY US
Washington, D. C.—Announce
ment is expected from the State
Department that the Mexican Gov
ernment is prepared t o settle for
$2,000,000, 2,800 American claims

arising from the seizure of oil
properties. Great Britian has pre
sented formal demands for a set
tlement for the expropriation of
British-owned oil wells.
