Town Board Issues
Call For Nominating
Convention April 17
Discus Varied Program At
Regular Meeting Here
Lat?t Night
A call to life for town politics was
sounded by the commissioners in reg
ular session last night when they
ordered a nominating convention
held in the courthouse at 8 o'clock
on the night of Thursday. April 17.
The order finds quietness prevailing
over the political front, but there's
no telling what will follow as the
biennial high spot in town politics
is reached. An announcement by his
honor. Mayor Hassell, is expected
momentarily, but members of the
board are remaining quiet. The con
vention is scheduled to nominate
candidates for mayor, and the five
positions on the board. The election
machinery was set up last night
with J. E. Pope as registrar, and R
T Griffin and J T. Price as judges
of election. The registration books
are to open next Saturday, and the
election is to follow on the first Tues
day after the first Monday in May.
The commissioners last night
pledged the county commissioners
their cooperation in rounding up dogs
unlisted on the books for taxation.
Possibly a dog census will be held,
the authorities agreeing that all un
claimed dogs should be disposed of
along with a few that turn over gar
bage cans and run at large.
by the town will put up a $400 serv
ice deposit for the lights at the ball
park, the project being rated as a
self-liquidating one. It was pointed
out that under the arrangement, the
ball club can purchase electricity at
the rate of one cent a kilowatt where
as it would cost five cents under pri
vate contract.
A new parking system for the
town's main street was proposed, and
it is understood that a slight varia
tion in the parking angles will be
tested It was proposed to establish
parallel parking on one side of the
street and leave the 45-degreC angle
system untouched on the other side,
but a 35-degree angle for both sides
will be put into practice instead.
A one-way drive for Tassell lane
was ordered and the board plans to
surface the lane running off Church
Street between the Barnes and
Crockett homes.
Bids for a deep well will be receiv
ed by the commissioners at a special
- session?tomorrow morning at 1Q_
o'clock, the board being advised that
arrangements had been effected for
carrying on the street and water
department improvements in coop
eration with the Works Progress Ad
ministration
Plans for financing the completion
of the Negro recreational center
building were considered, but they
will be delayed pending required ac
tion on the part of the sponsors.

Blue Mold Reported in Plant
Beds on Martin County Farms
According to reliable but unoffi
cial reports blue mold has made its
appearance in Martin County tobac
co plant beds in the Hassell-Hamil
ton area, the disease aggravating a
situation that has already been de
scribed as serious. Their plants
ranging in size hardly larger than a
thin dime, farmers, questioned this
week, stated that they could not tell
even if the mold had uttacked their
plant beds. It is a little bit early for
the disaese in this county, many be
lieve, but reports from Georgia and
the border state that the mold is
spreading rapidly The disease was
positively identified in Robeson
County the middle of last week, and
in Georgia where the farmers start
ed transplanting operations last week I
a serious plant shortage is feared.
Reports from this county, as a
whole, maintain that the plants are |
late and that even with favorable
I weather and without blue mold at
tacks, transplanting will be delayed i
at least two weeks.
Only two types of treatment have .
State extension workers are said
to have offered their services in
helping check blue mold, but as far
as it could be learned this morning,
the office of the county agent has

county.
| been proven effective in controlling
blue mold. One is a spray treatment
using a yellow copper oxide solu
lion. However, the spray treatment
is only effective as a preventive, and
will not cure the disease after it
has attacked the plants in a tobacco
bed
The other treatment is by fumiga
tion with either benzol or a chem
ical known as paradichlorobenzene.
commonly ca41ed "PD.B" It will
control the disease after the plant
bed has become infected.
Few Registrants Are
Plaeed In First Class
REFERENDUM
A referendum on peanut pro
duction control will be held
throughout the producing areas
on Saturday, April 26. according
to information received here last
week-end from Mayon Parker,
president of the North Carolina -
Virginia Growers Peanut Coop
erative.
The date for the referendum
was fixed by the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration fol
lowing a meeting with Mr. Par
ker and representatives of grow
ers from other states in Atlanta
last Friday afternoon. A special
communication announcing the
date for holding the referendum
c xplained that with a favorable
vote "pegged price will con
tinue." Without favorable vote,
"law says there can be no pegged
price or diversion program."
Contagious Disease
P
Cases Shoot Upward
The spread of contagious diseases
in Martin County last month reach
ed a new high for recent years, ser
iously affecting the sehool attend
ance in some sections and almost
causing a shut-down of one or two
school plants. As far as it can be
learned, few if any deaths followed
the wave of whooping cough, diph
theria, measles and a few allied dis
eases of a communicable nature.
Sixty contagious disease cases were
reported according to the records
filed with the county board of
health. And strange as it may seem
in the Oak City section where the
authorities were said to have con
sidered closing the schools on ac
count of measles not a single case of
the disease is included in the health
department's records.
Following is the health depart
ment's March report on contagious
or reportable disease: one tubercu
losis case among the white popula
tion in Williamston; fifteen cases of
whooping cough, five in Roberson
ville, six in the Williamston rural
community and four in the town of
Williamston, all white; thirty-seven
cases of measles, Williamston, 13
white and five colored; Roberson
ville, 14 white; Palmyra, one color
ed; Everetts, four white; diphtheria,
three white in Williamston rural
community; three chickenpox, one
white near Williamston and two col
ored in Jamesville; one scarlet fever
near Williamston
Old Welfare Board
In Final Session
Meeting in final session here yes

Board handled routine duties and
made ready for the recently appoint
ed group. Seven new old age assist
ance applications were approved and
two others were increased. Si* new
aid to dependent children cases were
accepted and one grant was increas
ed At the present time there are 204
aged persons and 162 dependent chil

der the welfare program.
Tendering his resignation. Rev. E.
C. Shoe issued a formal statement,
expressing his appreciation for the
opportunity of having served as a
member of the board, and pleaded
ing the work of the department in
the future.
Appointed by the county commis
sioners, Mr. I. Mayo Little officially
enters upon his new duties as a
member of the board next month.
Mrs. Wheeler Martin, re-appointed
by the State department, was elect
ed chairman of the county unit for
the next two years. Mr W. .Robert
Everett, a third member, was re

was discussed subject to approval of
the county commissioners.

. ???
Literally swamped with work and
detail, the Martin County Draft
Board office last week-end announc
ed the results of the classification of
425 registrants handled earlier in
the week. One hundred and twenty
three men 43 white and 80 colored
were placed in the No. 1 A group,
the list having appeared last week.
Two white men were placed in Class
I D, one white man in Class 2-A,
and 277 men 147 white and 121 col
ored were placed in Class 3-A. Sev
en white men were placed in Class
4 F These classes represent 400
registrants, the remaining 25 ques
tionnaires either are pending or were
cleared by death or enlistments
Willie Thompson, colored, answered
the supreme draft call, a call that
everyone will answer, sooner or la
ter. Eleven men whose order num
bers ranged from 400 to 825 had en
listed in the service. Final classifica
tion of thirteen others is being de
layed pending an ..investigated of de
pendency calims. In the latter group,
the board does not say the dependen- j
cy claims are unfounded, but the an- !
swers in the questionnaires offered
insufficient proof of dependency and j
the welfare office will ne asked to j
check the claims.
Following is an explanation of the
classes into which registrants are di
vided, based on answers in the ques
tionnaires:
Class No. 1?Those persons avail
able for immediate training and serv
ice in the land or naval forces sub
ject, of course, to physical examina
tions.
Class No. 2?Those persons defer
red because the public interest is
best served by them staying at then
regular work.
Class No. 3?Those persons defer
red because others are dependant
upon them for support.
Class No. 4?Those deferred from
military service either by the law it
self or for physical disability, or oth
er reasons.
The classifications, effected by the
draft board last week, appear as fol
lows, excepting those in No 1 -A

Turkey, her potential ally Hitlers
men were said to have driven pos- j
Sitily eighteen miles into Yugoslav j
territory Conflicting reports are,
coming out of the new war arena,
aud while the Greeks and Yugoslavs |
are offering a stubborn resistance it
is feared that German forces are
moving slowly but steadily forward |
in their drive.
Two Greek forts are said to have
fallen, but the others are holding
firm Advance re|Hirls state that
preparations are already under
way to abandon Salonika, an im
portant port in World War No. 1. The
Allies now declare that the port is
of no great importance, indicating
that the withdrawal of forces from
that area is to be expected ,

planes since the attack was launch
ed against Yugoslavia Sunday Brit
ish land forces are not yet in the
thick of the fight, but they are said
to be moving into line, and the Brit
ish and Greek air forces are said to
be battling the Germans in the new

Despite delayed action by Hitler

Greece, and it is declared that ma- I
terials are moving to Yugoslavia. The
question now is, will the Greeks and !
Yugoslavs hold out, or will it be an
other Dunkirk for the Allies in the
Balkans Turkey's reaction to Ger
man gains in the Balkans is anxious- ,
ly awaited, and eyes are also look- |
ing to Soviet Russia.

gaining momentum. Arrangements

FAKM PLANS
Final notices are being issued
this week by the county agent's
office to farmers advising them
that if they are to participate in
the 1941 soil conservation pro
gram they must sign a set of
farm plans or work sheet not la
ter than next Tuesday.
Approximately 1.500 farmers
have already signed the work
sheets, leaving about 100 or 150
unsigned. All but about 8 or 10
farmers in this county signed
work sheets and participated to
some extent, if not all, in the
soil conservation program last
year.
Draft Registration List Survey Slimes More
Than 1,000 Names Missing From Tax Rooks
Tlie names o( 1,076 Martin County j
men between the ages of 21 and 35.
inclusive, are missing from the tax
books, according to a report just re
Icaaed by Commissioner C D. Car
starphen following a preliminary
survey of the draft registration list
in this county. That the number will
be materially reduced is fairly cer
tain when identity is definitely de
termined in each individual case and
when changes of address made since
last October are consider. But even
then the list of careless or willful
tax dodgers will hold to an unusual
ly high figure
Commissioner Carstarphen, releas
ing the findings of the first check
up, points out that a cross check of I
the townships will be necessary be-1
fore the willful tax dodgers can be
definitely ascertained.
Following the completion of the
draft list survey, the tax authorities
are now working on the election
boohs Information has been gained ?
for only one township at this time
The first check indicates that 35 per
sons in Bear Grass registered for the
last May primary but did not regis
tor for taxation. A check of the elec- i
tion books will likely be completed
this week, and then the authorities
will check the automobile register
for missing names and automobiles
According to a check of the draft 1

Increased Catches Reported
At Jamesville Fishery Today
Operating at a loss during the past
two weeks, the commercial fishery
at Jamesville yesterday reported in
creased catches and today the plant
is gradually pushing to a normal
schedule. However, the operations
are not as successful so far this year
as they were last.
This morning, the large seine was
dipping as many as 1,000 herring, a
few perch and shad from the river
ut a time, and indications are now
pointing to larger catches from day
to day until a peak is reached some
time next week. The plant at Camp
Point placed in operation last week
has been operating with much diffi
culty. the report sating that trees
and snags in the river there have
damaged the seine repeatedly. Im
proved operations were reported
there ywtfiday and today. and it is
now believed that normal operations
can be expected from now until the
end of the season or about May 10
One report from the fishery at
noon today stated that while the
catches are fairly small, they are
much larger than they \vcre~iast
week and that the operator is more
encouraged over the outlook for the
remainder of the season.
Customers, up until yesterday,
were taking fish from the battery as
fast as they were caught, but pack
ing operations were started on a
small scale this week
The number of visitors to the fish
cry is increasing from day to day.
and throngs- are expected to view
the plant in operation Easter Mon

Originating in what some describe
as a hot but still friendly political
stir-up in Jamesville, a petition car
rying the names of 292 Jamesville
district citizens partly upset a norm
al schedule of procedure in the regu
lar meeting of the Martin County I
Board of Education here yesterday.
All the details could not be had im
mediately, but there was an appar
ent move in the district to oust the
Jamesville faculty in its entirety
with |Kissibly one or two exceptions
Learning of the plan a short time I
ago, citizens in the district started I
what is recognized as a counter ?
move, and they presented a mighty
strong front before the education
board. fThirty-two Jamesville citi
zens with Messrs. W. W Walters and
Charles Gurkin and Mis Walter
Brown and Mrs Spencer as their!
chief spokesmen, appeared before
the meeting in person and present-j
d a petition carrying the names of
292 citizens. In addition to that pe- 1
tit ion, the delegation offered a sup- '
plomentary support in the form of a
petition carrying the names of 102
high school pupils. The main petition
addressed to the county education
board, reads, as follows
"We, the undersigned citizens and
patrons of Jamesville school, have
enjoyed the progress made by our
school under your leadership. There
fore, being anxious to see our school
go forward, we hereby ask you gen
tlemen to appoint as our school com
mittee men that have the ability and
the confidence of the people. We
heartily endorse Mr C C Fleming,
Mr. F. W Holliday and Mr Elmer
Modlin.'"
For nearly three hours, the board
wrangled over the appointments for
the one district, making every ef
fort to satisfy the people and main
tain a spirit of cooperation for the
school which, records show, has a
creditable racing in the county sys
tem. But the situation, aggravated
by recent events, was badly tangled,
and its solution can only be deter
mined in the course of future events
The petitioners scored in the nom
ination of Mr C C. Fleming who
only a month or two ago resigned. C

The amount of money releas
ed to farmers participating in
the 1910 soil conservation pro
gram is still climbing to new
high record figures in this coun
ty. Through last week-end, 2.
.'113 checks representing 1,320 ap
plications and amounting to
$114,8.r>2.30 had been received by
the office of the county agent
for distribution among Martin
farmers. Approximately 250 ap
plications for payments are still
pending, and it is estimated that
the total amount received and to
he received under the 1910 pro

Automotive power was consider

was badly broken up in an accident
between Hassell and Oak City, and a

antr Washington Streets here, was
ripped from its supports. No accur
ate report on the damage could be
had immediately, but the loss will
run well over $250.
Bonnie Bryant, colored, vv as lound

county when a loose mule from the
Frank Haisiip farm darted into the
road last Saturday night. "I was
meeting another car and did not see
the mule until I was right on him,"
Bryant said. Three of his legs were
broken, the mule was later shot.

Library Aid Plans
Discussed Monday
State plans for aiding rural hl)rary
projects were discussed at length in
a meeting of county citizens and Miss
Murjorie Heal, of the State Library,
held in the office of the county su
perintendent of schools here yester
day
According to reports corning from
the meeting, the State will offer $ 1
000 for library work in the county,
and the county will be asked to raise
' a similar amount. It is possible that
library units will be established in
Robersonville and Williamston and
be served from the two points. It is
also understood that plans were con
sidered for joint county operation of
a library service. Under this plan the
cooperating counties would employ
a full-time librarian and purchase a
bookmobile for the distribution of
books into the strictly rural com
munities. C
Local opinion is that it will be dif
ficult to maintain the latter system,
than it possibly;wouId he better for
the existing units to continue their
present plans of operation which
could be supplemented by State aid.

'ormulate Plans
l or Peanut Vote
Plans for an educational campaign
in connection with the peanut refer
endum to be held the last Saturday
in this month will be formulated at
a meeting of peanut growers in Tar
boro tomorrow morning at 9:30
o'clock. Called at the suggestion of
peanut growers who anticipate a
strong opposition to production con
trol in those areas where peanut
bases have not been established, the
meeting in the Tailmiu high scfroot
auditorium is expected to fire
first gun in this section in behalf of
the program. Representatives from
all the peanut-producing counties
are urged 4o send representatives to
the meeting.
It is generally believed that a
campaign to acquaint the grower*
with the proposed control program
will be launched in all of the pea
nut crginties beginning possibly next
week.
Complete details of the peanut
campaign will be released following
the Tarboro meeting.
