H Coburn and Solicitor Don E Johnson in the county recorder's court last Monday. Even Clerk L. B. Wynne almost went to sleep when his duties were reduced to a near minimum.

Judge Coburn handled two and continued two for the defend ants. The session was adjourned well within an hour. Only one more session of the county court will be held before the superior tribunal convenes for a week, and it is possible that an ac cumulation of cases will result for the session scheduled for June 23rd. Proceedings: Charged with being drunk and dis orderly and with an assault. Will Vick was sentenced to the roads for a term of two months Vick pleaded not guilty, the court differing with his plea after hearing the evidence. Ed Speller, apparently in a hur ry to have his trial completed for fear that other interesting evidence might be uncovered, pleaded guilty in the case charging him with carry ing a concealed weapon He was fin ed $50 and taxed with the costs of the court, The ease in which Fenner Kespass. taxi driver, was charged with aid-' mg and abetting in larceny, was con tinued for the defendant Nelson Mason, charged with lar ceny, had his case continued also. ?

The State Director pointed out that Section 11 of the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940 provides that any registrant who fails to conform to the law or regulations shall be liable to punishment "by imprisonment for not more than five years or a fine of not more than $10, 000, or by fine and imprisonment." 'Most of the cases of delinquen cy so far reported," State Director Metts said, "have been found to be due to ignorance or carelessness on the part of registrants. He pointed out that heretofore it has been the policy of the Selective Service sys tem to be lenient in cases where it is apparent there has been no wilful intent to avoid service. "But the in vestigation of such castas is taking up much valuable time of local boards and of Department of Justice agent, when these agencies should be devoting their time to the more urgent work of national defense," General Metts said, and then added, "Registrants had better not count on an indefinite continuance of this pol icy of leniency." In an effort to correct this situa tion and to avoid the possibility of prosecution for delinquency, regis trants were reminded by General Metts that they must complete and return their questionnaires within the time stated on the first page, they must report to examining physicians a the time and place stated in the no tice and they must report for deliv ery to the induction station when no tified to do so. General Metts warn ed that failure to respond to any of these legal notices will subject the registrant to possible prosecution in the Federal Court. stork <;m>sin<;s Williamston's half holiday each Wednesday during the month* of June.

While the task is not yet complete, the first reports clearly indicate that it will be completed within the allotted' time and that Martin County citi zens can be depended upon to act in defense of their country The first basic report was receiv ed late Tuesday afternoon when the Robersonville committee, headed by Chief William Gray and Attorney Paul D. Koberson. forwarded a check for that district's base quota to Rev |*John W. Hardy. United Service Or ganizations' county treasurer The committee there, according to last reports, is making progress in rais ing the second part of the quota, the group stating that they planned to complete the canvass within the next lay or two. No other districts have submitted definite reports, but in Witliamston one person is said to Have contribut ed $50. another donated $10. and managers of several business organ izations state that their employees are making $1 contributions without solicitations The heads of the var ious civic organizations have not started a concerted canvass of the town and community at this time, but various firrg heads and groups have been contacted with pleasing results With one or two exceptions, cooperation in the movement has been willingly pledged Next Monday night, the several township committees are to make a progress report in a meeting to be held in the American Legion post hut here at 8 o'clock. It is believed that nearly all if not all of tin $700 quota will be re|K>rted raised at that time Chairman R. H.

Placing its program into effect a few days ago, the town of Kinston eared -for almost 100- young-jraddiers traveling to and from camp in a single day.

Following the light sho.wers last week-end, a fairly heavy rain fell here Wednesday evening, the rain gauge at the river recording 0.87 of an inch at that timfe More rain has already fallen in June than was recorded during all of May. So far this month, 124 inches of rain have fallen at this point. Other sections of the county state that the rains were so small that farmers did not have to stop their plows. Still other sec tions reported a fairly good "sea son". The crop outlook is indeed more promising in this county than it was a week ago. Crops are taking on a green hue and ure beginning to show increased life. Coming mighty late, the rains are expected to ef fect an increase in Irish potato pro duction. Late reports state that the market is strengthening and that few deliveries have been effected at this time. Extensive preparations for handling the crop have been made at Robersonville, one of the princi pal potato markets in this section. I2(> \IK\?8I2(i A liMI |???r cent support for the I m let I Service Organization* was reported in the county this morning by Treasurer John W. Ilardy. One firm with 126 men on its payroll contributed $126? a dollar for each man. Seeking no publicity, the 126 men have well demonstrated in a quiet way their honest to-g<M?dness pa trioti.sni and willingness to co operate and participate with their means in the emergency I at hand. A similar spirit when display ed throughout the land will, no doubt, add a brighter lining to the dark outlook for the world. Man Is Jailed For Abusing Sick \\ iie | Charged .with abusing his sick wife and threatening the life of the attending physician. Clyde Silver thorne following a spirited tussle with three officers was jailed here ! last Tuesday night. His ease is set i for trial in the county-, court next Monday ? " ; I Said to have been drinking. Sil verthoine, according to reliable re ports, beat his wife over the head It was also reported that he threw bottles against the ceiling, the glass falling on the bed where a child was aboqt to be born. Called to the home, a doctor, w as chased away by Silver thorne who. the reports state, threat ened his life Excitement in the little neighbor hood on Pine Street was at a high point when three officers went there to take a hand '-'Little Bimbo." Sil vcrthorne's son, warning his father, shouted, "the law's .coining." The fa th'er challenged the latv and took a stand in the kitchen Going into the small room Sheriff C It Roebuck took hold of his arm. Silverthorne countering with a full load of snuff which landed squarely in the offi cur's face Deputy Hoy Peel moved in and Silverthorne engaged him The jailer floored him and with a death hold around his neck-held him down until the sheriff and Officer John Gurganus could move in The three carried him hodily to the car and on to jail. At one tune in the proceeding, tin sheriff started to use his blackjack i but "Little Bimbo" started closing J in with a piece ol seaiitl?ing and aftci I bombarding bun with curse Words warned him not to pound his daddy [ No licks were passed and Silver thorne can boast of an unbroken head just because of the officer's pa tience. "Wanderers" Seek Birth Certificates The Martin County vital statistics bureau in the office of the register of deeds is busy these days looking up records and furnishing duplicate birth certificates to lads bhrn in the county but who are now scattered in ait nooks and corners of the coun ty Hardly a day passes but what the bureau is not asked to search the records and furnish a birth cert if i cate. Defense industries and others, too, are qiiite~sirict'when it comes to determining nationality and the birth certificate offers the best proof. Typical of a clay's work in the bureau was the mail received yes terdfiiy. Three young men, one in Cal ifornia, and anothei in Hartford,) Connecticut, and still another in Philadelphia, asked' for birth cer tificates. Recorded only since 1914, the- rec ords are not complete, arid even the records themselves are not proper-) Jy prepared by the district regis ! trais m some instances, making it impossible to offer the desired proof. It is a common practice, a review shows, for the regi trars to le ave I out tlu? given name of the newly born babe, and it i said ttuft."one registrar actually sta led naming the I newcomers. The lat< i practice was discovered, but little or nothing was ever done about it Most of those a-king duplicate birth certificates often neglect to give their parents' names or the township in which they were born, making it difficult in some eases for the bureau to furnish the desired in formation to the "wanderers " KKCaSTIC A I ION The reflilriliun of younc men who became 21 year* of ace since last October id or will have at tained that ace on or by July 1, 1941, will be handled under the direction of the county draft board, R.
