Women Can Aid In
Protecting Nation
The women can and should take
an important part in protecting, the
nation (rom economic chaos So said
S. F. (for Sylvia) Porter, noted wo
man financial clumnist of the New
York Post, at the Stephens College
forum on "The American Woman
and Her Responsibilities" at Colum
bia, Mo. As keeper of the family
pocketbook and manager of the
home, Miss Porter said, the Ameri
can woman will play a crucial role
in deciding: Whether inflation does
come; whether the Defense Bond
sale is to be "the success it should
and must be"; whether our lawmak
ers are able to put through the tax
Iuwb, uwd the prier- and wage-re
strict!ve laws that are "essential to
our economic democracy'*; whether
our industrial inventive geniuses are
to succeed in helping us maintain our
standard of living through the use
of substitutes for scarce goods, and
simplification of product design and
styles. She particularly warned
against hoarding of goods, against
"being scared into runs on the stores
to stock up on commodities like silk
stockings and sugar".
Kicker In Country's
Late Taxation Bill
Kicker of the "outlined" brand
new $5,000,000,000 tax bill mention
ed last week proved to be the 15 per
cent "withholding" income tax, to
go on top of already steepened "in
come tax rates. Congress shows signs
of balking violently at putting
through that drastic a sock, espec
ially at doing it in the jig time of two [
months But most agree that, what
ever and whenever new taxes are
enacted, they should be of the "de-1
duct at source'* type. It was empha
sized that Secretary Morgenthau did
not submit his new tax ideas as "pro
posals" for action?just as an "out
line." Since a prime motive for the
new taxes is to guard against infla
tion. Congress may try to achieve
the same end. in part, by stiffening
the price ceiling legislation- now in
the works, thus partially easing the
pressure for making new tax,^ as se
vere as those outlined.

1 North Carolina Has a Real Part inJ
the Story of American Democracy
Democracy is a much written and
a much spoken word. Every nation |
seems to be "for" or "against" the
democratic way of life
In the story of the world, three real |
democracies are the ones usually
used as reference illustration in
speeches and articles. Athens of An
cient Greece is famous as the birth
place of democracy, for all the citi
zens were allowed a part in the gov
ernment of that city. A true or real
democratic government is one that
gives everybody a direct part in gov
erning. In the past only small com- j
munities have been able to have a
I meeting of all the citizens when
I laws were to be adopted Or plans
made
Our United States is a democracy
111 the republican form. This nation
is a republic because it is not possi
ble for every citizen to go to Wash
ington and assemble in one group.
Representatives are elected by the
people to be sent to Congress.
I Ix>ng before North Carolina was
:'ettkd, little groups in New Kng
I land held town meetings. Those
meetings are a familiar part of the
I story of American self-government.
| From the platform, patriotic speeches
ring out telling the story of those
New Englanders who held town
meetings which included all the cit
izens of the community. They came
together as one group to make their
laws. The third illustration known
by the average man is the Swiss
Canton.
Representative government goes so
far back in the history of North Car
olina that the occasions when true
democracy was practiced have been
forgotten.
Side by side with New England
town meetings, the first assembly
that met in North Carolina should
be included in the story of Ameri
can democracy. The planters who
had settled in the new colony south
of the Virginia line met as a group
to make laws by which they were to
be governed.

Conservation Rates
Of AAA Announced
Rates of payment for planting |
within special crop allotments under ,
the 1942 Agru ultural C<msorvation
Program 'of the AAA have been an
nounced, according to K. Y Floyd,
State AAA executive assistant at
State College.
The rates and other provisions of
the program, explains Mr. Floyd, are
"directed at greater conservation
achievements on individual farms
and at helping farmers attain rec
ord production of farm products
needed under the Farm Defense Pro
gram."
Payment rates, except for com
mercial wheat, are somewhat lower
than in 1941. The rates include: ohe
and one-quarter cents f>er pound for
cotton; 10 and one-half cents per
bushel for commercial wheat; $1.45
per ton for peanuts; two cents per
pound for commercial potatoes; sev
en-tenths of a cent per pound for
flue-cured tobacco, and seven-tenths
of a cent per pound for burley to
bacco. ? -
Payment for complying with acre
age allotments will be made in ra
tio to the degree to which soil-build
ing goals arc carried out on the
farm.
In lieu of total soil-depleting al
lotments established under past pro
grams, the 1942 program provides
that a specified percentage of crop
land be devoted to soil-building and
soil-conserving uses.
"This provision in the 1942 pro
gram, bolstered by continuation in
1942 of the increased funds set aside
in 1941 for carryibg out soil-build
ing practices, is a forward step in
the continued improvement of the
country's soil," Floyd said.
The AAA officer stressed the im
portance of farmers planning their
programs this year in line with de
fense needs. TTie conservation pro
tells of the appointment of William
Drummond as governor and adds
these comments: "Shortly after the
government was organized, not la
ter than the spring of 1665, the first
Assembly was held, and the little
settlement became a self-governing
community, a pure democracy, the
entire body of the inhabitants act
ing for themselves, and not through
the instrumentality of representa
tives."
