ESTABLISHED 1899 Tobacco Markets In Georgia Will Open Season On Tuesday Number of I^oeal People Will Spend Several Weeks In the Belt $ Tobacconists, including warehouse operators, auctioneers, buyers, book and office men, speculators and com mon laborers are now moving into Georgia and Florida from this sec tion for the opening of the tobacco markets there next Tuesday. Quite a few Williamston people plan to leave tomorrow and Sunday for the several markets where they will par ticipate in the marketing activities during the next several weeks. Preliminary reports indicate that the markets are expecting record sales there this season, and doubt has been expressed as to the completion of the marketing work within the allotted time. It is possible that IT few markets will remain open dur ing the entire month of August. Said to have a bumper crop, the markets tn the two states are expect ing to market well over 100 million pounds during the few briefs sell ing weeks. Prjce forecasts for the crop have been few in number but farmers and others are hoping for the best. Early reports from the opening last year placed the average for the first few hours of selling at about 25 cents a pound, a figure slightly above the average for the season the year be fore. Prices on the opening last year ranged from four to 52 cents, the first reports stated Price reports from the opening will be eagerly awaited by farmers in this county although there is gen craiiy a variation in the figures there as compared with the averages here Among those from here who are leaving this week-end for the sev eral markets are Messrs. Jack Har dison and James E. Griffin, Valdos ta; Wesley Peel and W. It. Ingram, Douglas; Joel Muse, Tifton; Jakie and Jimmie Taylor, Hahira. Large Attendance At Venereal Clinics Reported In County Scfonil Quarterly Report By Health Cilit Reflect** An Active Work The work of the health department during the quarter of April, May and June has been mainly concentrated on an anti-typhoid and diphtheria campaign which began May 22nd, Only one-half the county has been immunized. The second half will be immunized during the month of July. This department has been un der a definite handicap in putting on this campaign. The health depart in cnt.was not in existence three years ago and we were forced to stab bIYndly into this adventure. Some slight mistakes were naturally made in the selection of dispensary points but these will be corrected before the "next .campaign. A total ot II, 108 Injections?of typhoid?vaccine were given and 805 injections of alum precipitated toxoid were given this quarter. The maternity and infancy clinics have been well attended this quarter and the local doctors have cooperat ed well in assisting us in this work We feel that it is necessary that all pre-natal cases receive some medi cal and nursing advice as this is the best approach to reducing the ma ternal and infant death rate. ? the county in epidemic form. Not un til we are able to get more speedy and accurate reports on the preval ence of disease can we feel that these epidemics can be prevented. One case of diphtheria and one case of tuber culosis was reported during the quar ter. The venereal disease elinies reach ed a new high in attendance during the quarter with 3,847 patients com ing to the clinics for either treat ment, "examinationror advice. Of this number, 2,657 were syphilis treat ments and 741 hlnnd li sts The R?h? ersonville venereal disease clinic has been renovated and the working conditions there have been much better. Arrangements were made with Dr. V. A. Ward to take charge of the Robersonville clinic after July 1st, as clinic physician. This arrangement will allow the depart ment to do more administrative and follow-up work on the patients. The entire personnel of the de partment has rendered excellent ser vice, and feels that its work has ?Keen to good advantage. The depart ment was notified that an addition al nurse and an additional doctor would be assigned to us after July 1st for six weeks.

The rainfall so far this month is slightly more than that for all of July last year. However, the current fall followed a compar atively dry May and June. Questioned this morning, far mers were unable to say what effect the rains this week would have on tobacco. Some stated that with the return of clear and warmer weather, the crop would ripei^ faster Others state that the crop was already ripening unus ually fast and that the rains would make little difference. Mrs. Nina Gardner Dies At Her Home Near Jamesville Last Kilt's Arc ( ondiicird At (irdar Itram-li Yesterday I Afternoon Mrs. Nina V.

The plaintiff was allowed $ 1B1 car dam ages and $100 for the personal injur^l ies of the plaintiff's wife, driver of one of the cars.

Child Suffert Severe Burnt To Both Hit Feet "Pete" Cullipher, little son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Cullipher, was severe ly burned about his feet last Tues day afternoon when he stepped into a bed of coals raked from a tobacco curing barn furnace near their home on the Pennie Slade farm in Wil liamston Township. Treated in the offices of Drs. Saun ders and Brown here, the little fel low is getting along very well, the attending physician stating that the burns are not expected to prove ser ious. * - Nearly Quarter Of A Million Dollars To Operate County About One-half the Amount b To Go For Retirement Of Obi Debts Nearly one-quarter of a million dollars?$229,955 08 to be exact?is needed to finance the various county activities during the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1940, according to a budget estimate made public today by the Martin County Board of Com missioners over the signature of J Sam tjeisinger. clerk to the board and county accountant. Of the amount iweded. the county is looking to the property owners to contribute $177,098.00 through the channels of lommon taxation, the re maining to come from various other sources of revenue such as profits from liquor sales, Schedule "B" li censes, fines and forfeitures and so on. A review of the budget estimate shows that old debts are like a thorn in one's side. More than $100,000 is needed to satisfy the bond holders with their principal and interest. A greater part of that amount is to be raised from the rich and poor alike to pay the interest and small princi pal installments on bonds issued for highways and bridges which the great State of North Carolina claims ing here just a second, the dirty deal handed Martin and some other coun ties by the highway commission in taking the last fraction of a cent of the gas tax and then ignoring the appeals of these counties is the greatest injustice ever perpetrated on the common property taxpayers in this State since the old days ?of corrupt Republican rule. And that old regime never boasted about what it did for the people. The budget estimate is a bit con fusing in that the rate for various departments reflects a marked in crease. A close examination of the complete budget shows that appro priations are little changed from what they were last year. For in stance, the general county fund, $47, 100.00, is virtually the same as it was last year, but the rate is four and one-half cents higher. Revenue from sources other than the tax levy have shrunk considerably, and a rate boost was necessary to offset that loss. The poor fund, estimated at $19,922.50, is about $3,000 greater than it was a year ago, and a one cent boost in the rate was found nec essary to care for that increase which increase is attributable to greater demands for "outside poor" and hos pitalization. County debt-service as well as school debt service is reduced from last year, and a reduction of four and one-half cents was possible. Oth er items in the budget are virtually the same as they were a year ago. The county officials predict that $8,432.92 of the 177,098.00 will not be collected and that one item more than offsets the increase in the rate from $1.41 to $1.45 on the $100 a.s sessed property valuation. The rate proposed in the budget estimate was tentatively adopted by the commissioners in special session on Monday, July 17. Property own ers are accorded the right to offer their views on the budget figures. Unless there are objections voiced, it is very likely the rate of $1.45 will be formally adopted by the commis sioners at their next regular meeting on Monday, August 7. County Resident Defendunt In Suit An unusual suit has been brought County, against T. E. Goodrich, Mar tin County citizen. Papers, served on the defendant this week by Sheriff C. B. Roebuck, directed him to show why he should share in the estate of the,lata Mrs F.rnetl Davis In December, 1937, Mrs. Davis, her husband and their small child were killed in an automobile wreck near Oak City. C. J. Shields was named administrator of the estates which were valued in excess of $3,000. Af ter paying expenses and other ac counts including the price of the ma chine owned by Shields or his com pany and driven by Davis, the ad ministrator reported a balance of $946.42. Unable to determine who died first, the heirs-in-law of both Mr. and Mrs. Davis agreed to an equal division of the residue. Mrs. Goodrich, a divorcee, claims she is entitled to the half due Mrs. Davis' heirs-in-law, offering to show that she cared for Mrs. Davis. Dr. Sounder* Continue* To Improve In llotpital After undergoing a third operation in about two weeks, Dr. J. H. Saun ders, local physician, was reported to be improving rapidly in a Rich mond hospital today. His return home is not expected within the next several weeks, however. County Court Has Unusually Small Docket on Monday Only Four Cum** Before Judge Peel During Short Session With only four cases on the docket. Judge H. O. Peel held the county recorder's court in session hardly more than an hour last Monday, the alleged crimes coming before the court being centered around liquor law violations. Judging from the annual report filed by Special Enforcement Officer J. H. Roebuck, the illegal liquor traf fic continues to flourish, and the continued violation of the liquor laws indicate that the people drink in the summer time to keep cool and drink in the winter time to keep warm Willoughhv Andrews. alleged Hamilton bootlegger with a yard long reputation, had his case contin ued until next Monday. Taking their watch in Hamilton last Saturday, Of ficers Roebuck and Haislip forced their way in so close on a sale that the money offered by a customer never reached Andrews' hand, it was said. Charged with violating the liquor laws, Joe Coffield was fined $25, taxed with the cost and given a three months suspended sentence. Alexander Hill, Jr., charged with an assault, was given the choice of two judgments, lli- was directed to pay a $25 fine and accept the court costs or pay $7.50 to the prosecuting witness' doctor and serve three months on the roads. Neither of the judgments suited him and he ap pealed, Judge Peel requiring bond the sum uf $100. James Finch was fined $25, taxed with the cost and sentenced to the roads for three months in the case charging him with the violation of the liquor laws. The road sentence was suspended by the court Clerk L. B. Wynne announced yes terday that no session of the court will be held next Monday as Judge Peel would -be out of town The next session will be held on July 31. Comparatively Few Attending Typhoid Clinics In County ? Tobacco Harvesting I 11 t cr ruptH Drive Again*! Fev er, Krporlh Slate Comparatively few people arc at tending the clinics as the triennial campaign against typhoid fever ap proaches a close in the county, of ficials of the health department stat ed today. "The attendance upon the clinics in most places has been dis appointing, and the effectiveness of the campaign is being limited great ly," Dr. F. E. Wilson, head of the de partment, commented. Carrying the anti-typhoid drive into the upper part of the county three weeks ago, the health" forces vaccinated less than 2,000. Last week the number jumped to 2,742, but a decrease in the number was report. ed this week. Delayed partly by the July 4 hol iday duiiug the fust week, the cam paign gained momentum uulbe sec ond period, but tobacco harvesting is now interrupting the health work, and the final reports are not expect ed to be very encouraging. The response has been particular ly disappointing in Robersonville where fewer people have taken ad vantage of free immunization than at any other point in the county, pup ulation considered. Quite 6 few peo ple there are taking the vaccine pri vately, however A complete review of typhoid im munizations for the first three weeks follows: 1st 2nd 3rd Roebuck's Store 58 70 76 Hamilton 161 332 286 Oak City 491 692 572 Robersonville 156 380 323 Gold Point 170 301 322 Masse 11 126 203 176 Parmele 86 109 91 Everetts 407 403 Cross Roads 176 248 233 Totals 1986 2742 2487 The campaign in the uppor part of the county will end next week. Small Chihl Diet In A fCathinglon llot/iilal Billie Loe Bullock, throe years old, died of diphtheria in a Washing ton hospital last Sunday afternoon. Thinking the child had croup, the mother did not call a doctor until Sunday morning when she was ad vised to rush him to a hospital for an operation. When the little fellow reached tfle hospital, he was so near dead that doctors considered an op oration useless, and the little bit of humanity choked to death. In a local doctor's office that morning, the little fellow was able to walk, the expression on his face holding a pitiful appeal for life. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon and -interment was in Cross Roads Township. The Bullocks make their home in Pop lar Point Township. Many County Farmers Forfeit Soil Payments Soil Compliance Cheek Shows Big Excess Acreage* IT Preliminary h*timutc* Point To Increase Kan^in^ lip To 2.1 IVr Cent Pushing the soil conservation pro gram aside, Martin County farmers, I Recording to preliminary and unof ficial reports on the compliance | work, this season chose to gamble on [ the open markets, the reports stat ing that the county as a whole will slum an im lease in US touaeco acro age ranging up to 25 per cent. The increased plantings mean that the farmers, as a whole, have forfeited soil conservation payments and sur rendered all lights to any claim for benefit payments from the govern ment agriculture adjustment admin istration program. Kxcess tobacco plantings are being reported by the supervisors in near ly every section of the county. The office of the county agent has not yet released any official information as to the exact findings of the super visors, but reports, coming from rec ognized sources, indicate that in those sections, where tobacco plant ings have ordinarily been large in the past were increased more than the comparatively smaller plantings in other sections It could not be humid what the total acieage fig ure will be for the county, but it was learned that the increase will run as high as 30 per cent in some townships and as high as lttO per cent on some farms. A fairly strict compliance was pre dicted today in Griffins Township, the prediction resting on an incom plete check t?f crop acreages there* In one or two otht-r townships, the excess acreage- will hardly exceed trn pei ce nt over and abovedhereg ular allotments, meaning that those farmers will he- penalized at the rate' of two cents.a |>e?iind on their allot ted poundage. Where- the plantings e-xce-e-d 10 per cent of the- acre-age al lotments,-the pe-nalty e?r tax will be applied at the rate- e?f e-ight cents a pound on the- allotted poundage. No estimate could be had as to the extent to which the- county will par ticipate in the- soil conservation pay ments next spring, but it is not ex pected that more- than one e>ut of te-n farmers will be- eligible- to receive the- maximum amount offe-re-d unde-r the triple- A program. Reports from the field state that farmers are losing tobacco in the fields because it is ripening so rap idly that they an- unahlr to save .ill of it. The reports furthe r stated that many of those farmers could have held their plantings to.the stated al lotments, saved as much tobacco as the y are- going to save- and then met the program requirements for bene fit payments. This year, Muffin County farmers received in e-xce-ss of $150.000 under the soil conservation program. The amount of the- payments unde-r the IM.'hJ piugiuhk will be- determined just as soon as the compliance work is completed. The surveyors or su pervisors are making rapid progress in handling the compliance check', and the- task should be completed within the- next few weeks? Few Farmers Make Tour la Founty Busily engaged trying t(j save a rapidly-ripening tobacco crop, Mar tin County farmers wore unable to participate in the annual county tour last Wednesday. A group of about twenty farmers and others interest ed in agriculture m;iHn th<> tfinr which, despite the small number, was described as very successful. Leaving here that morning, the j group visited The -farma-of?Marvin Jones and Elmer Modlin and Bennie | F. Lilley in the Jamesville section neiore dinner. In the afternoon much time was spent by the group on the farm of A. E. Smith, Hobersonville. The stock man really had some thing for the group to see, and most of them have not stopped talking about the 938-pound pig the farmer had. "I believe the animal will weigh 1,400 pounds by the time he is grown," D. G. Modlin, one of the party, said. An interesting stop was made on | the farm of W. Robert Everett in Goose Nest Township, the party mak ing a last call on Bob Everett's farm, near here, late that afternoon. Arrpntpd For Alleged Thpft Of Lady'* Watch Jimmie Dixon, Roberson Slaugh ter House employee, was jailed here yesterday for the alleged theft of a lady's wrist watch at Roberson's cafe there a few days ago Officers traced the watch to Beaufort County where the young man had given it to a young lady. His case is scheduled for the courts Monday-week. I'EANUT PRICKS Meeting in Windsor yesterday morning, approximately 150 far mer. effected plans for carrying a rt quest to the United States Department of Agriculture for a peanut price schedule equally as high as the one in effect last year. A committee was authoriz ed to carry the appeal to the de partment, which is expected to take actios on the peanut price schedule within the next ten days. Addressing the meeting, Con gressman John II. Kerr told the farmers he would do all in his power to have of prices maintained through the stabilization cooperative meth od. Wrapped up in ripe tobacco, few Martin farmers attended the metttitf. Insurance Man Is Robbed Near Here Wednesday Ni^lit ?*? r??> Men Slop anil I nk*' SI 17 From (!. J. IVrry On Janit'Hvillt' Itoail Forcing his car off the road a few miles from here on the Jamesville highway. C. J Perry, five-ami ten cent insurance company representa tive, was held up and robbed of $147 in cash early last Wednesday evening by two men Traveling toward-Williamston, the insurance man said a car passed him and went on up the road and turn ed around. "The driver aimed the car at mine and ^caused me to stop," Berry-.'.to Id ? local officers Jumpmg~ out of their car, one of the two men threw a pistol in my face and order ed me to hand aver my money." The gunman was descr11 led as a small white fellow and a half-wit by Perry. Resisting the hold up. Perry said lie was struck over the head with a bottle by the second man, a large colored man. Beaten into submission, Perry surrendered the money, and the two robbers took his automobile keys and continued in the direction uf Jamesville, Perry explained that he was so badly frightened that he could not get a good description of the car, but thought it was a 1937 model Ford and that it wtrs?muddy, fie thinks lie ZDuld identify the two men. Stranded on the highway, Perry said he was picked up a fewminutc.s later by a representative of the same company he worked for. Upon reach ng here, he reported the roBbery to I local police who had the hold-up ] alacod on the air by the haul high-'l way broadcasting station. Plym inth police win iiiiiin tli.ib l>?noti Fied, but no trace of the robbers has aeon found The attack made upon Perry was apparently not very seven*, and oth ?r than the loss of his money, he was none the worse for his experience aoli^o said. firirf Review Of Market Quotations Feed markets continued to decline luring the past week influenced by r seasonally dull demand and pros pects of increased suppliesj of some ligh protein concentrates, according to the Weekly Market News Service Review of the U. S. and North Car Prospects of increased production of linseed and soybean. meals and lack jf buying interest in new crop sup plies were iaehrfs responsible in part for declines in these feeds. Corn feeds declined reflecting lower corn prices. UK- inuex number ol wholesale feed prices dropped more than 3 points to 96 6 against 99.8 a week earlies and 100 0 a year ago. During the past week the market for shelled and cleaned peanuts has been more active and prices have ad vanced on some grades. At the same time the market for very best jum bos has also strengthened slightly. Supplies of the best grades of both jumbos and bunch are very light both in the country and at ware houses in all delivery centers. Clean ers are now paying 4 1-4 cents per pound for best jumbos and 3 3-4 cents for best bunch. The demand was selective and trading was generally dull but most northern wholesale and the Raleigh farm price poultry and egg markets closed the period about steady. In Philadelphia, however, egg trading was somewhat hampered due to a labor strike in local warehouses. Wholesale closing prices oh best quality large size white eggs were 26 cents in Washington; /25 in Hal-* eigh; 24 to 28 cents in Philadelphia; and 21 to 22 cents a dozen in Balti more. Martin Farmers To (jo To Canada \mt Help Cure Tobacco Ten Vrf Signed for ork By <1. I). Here Y<'?terda\ ?? At least ten Martin County farm ers atjd possibly more will partici pate in Canada's tobacco expansion program this summer, according to C D. Grove, representative of the Cooperative of the Tabac Lauren tines. Joleitte. Province of Quebec. Canada During his short stay here yester I day morning, Mr Grove, former rep I resentative on the local market for I the Export Tobacco Company, con I traded with ten farmers to go to Quebec and cure tobacco. The selec tions. Mr. Grove explained, were limited luu .iu.n' it u q.i ddfuult m get passports for a large number at me time. He also explained that he planned to return here some time next week and offer curing con tracts to other farmers. W. Jasper Weaver, young Martin farmer, was chosen as group lead er; ami he.with nine others, are plan** ing to leave here about the fifth of August for Three Rivers, n farming community about 600 miles from (),n tario. The names of others tinder eon tract are F A Harnlull, A. V. Bow ? n. J M Johnson, H. W. High, Wal ter Brown. Paul D. Manning. Fred Grimes. Park Hardison and Elmer Modlin. Nearly 100 Martin farmers applied for the jobs. Mr. Grove stated that several hundred had also applied in Greenville. Wilson and Kinston. He also explained th;it hi" '?"rnp,'ny? mild use between two and three hundred men, and that they were having trouble getting passports for that number According to Mr. Grove, certain sections in Canada are more than doubling their tobacco crop this year over their last year plantings. In the Quebec province where the Mar tin farmers are scheduled to go, the farmers are increasing their crop from 2,000 to 5,400 acres. The type of tobacco is very similar to that grown in this country, and at marketing time it has a 50-import duty differ ential over the United States leaf. "I am afraid Canada is increasing its crop too rapidly just as they are apparently doing in the States," Mr. Grove said. Quite a few farmers applying for curing jobs were disappointed when they failed to get contracts yester day, but it is possible that some of those who signed will not make the trip and others will be chosen by the group leader to take their places Very little Knglish .is spoken by the Canucks "(French Canadians), but as ope of the farmers signing a run . tract pointed out. there'll be a great deal of hand waving and head Shak ing; Assistance Lists Jump 8IW During List Fiscal Year Ity A I.AI K/\.\( i: WIH.I l l New cases added to the public us n>,lanco lulb during thr 1 ;i.vt fiscal year accounted for 8199 of the total number of 34.118 receiving govern ment aid at the end of June, Nathan II.
