V * '' .
Germany And Italy Formally At War Against This Nation
Large Number Cases
On Recorder's Court
Docket For Monday
Session Nexl Week Will Be
The First Held in More
Than a Month
Idle for various reasons since the
10th of last month, the Martin Coun
ty Recorder's Court will find an un
usually large docket awaiting its
attention next Monday. Forty-two
cases have already been booked for
trial, and possibly others will be
added to the list.
The court suspended its sessions
on November 17 and 24 to avoid a
conflict with the special term of su
perior court. The session scheduled
for the first Monday in this month
was called off on account of the ser
ious illness and death of Judge W
Hubert Coburn. Recognizing the va
cancy, the county commissioners
named Attorney Robert L. Coburn
to the post and he will enter upon
his new duties next Monday morn
ing at 9:30 o'clock.
Of the forty-two cases on the
docket, fifteen charge the defendants
with failing or refusing to pay dog
taxes. It is understood that agree
ments have been reached in all fif
teen of the cases, and that while the
charges will be read in open court
and entered in the records, the de
fendants will be formally discharg
ed upon payment of the tax and
costs. Warrants were issued against
the following by Special Tax Col
lector S. H. Grimes, charging non
payment of dog taxes: Walter
Wynne. Jesse J. Bullock, Fernando
Briley, Ed Moore, Fred Taylor, Hel
lary Matthews, Lonnie Whitfield,
Thurman Williams, John Bridges,
Jeffry Spruill, Robert L. Cochran,
James Glover, A. W. Boyd, James
Glover, Jr., L. W. Williams.
It is fairly apparent that old Rover
will have to give a good financial
account of himself or go the way of
the Japs.
Other cases on the docket, not in
cluding a few that have been con
tinued until a later session, are, as
follows:
Charlie Clark, drunken driving.
Ivory Clark, careless and reckless
driving.
Joe Carr Eborn, assault with a
deadly weapon.
Haywood Spruill, failing or re
fusing to pay dog tax. Spruill ap
pealed from a judgment in Justice
Hopkins' court in Oak City to the
superior court und the case was
then referred to the county court.
Roy D. Harrell, drunken driving.
Jeff Slade, disorderly conduct and
assault on a female.
Justice Andrews, assault.
Charlie Williams, larceny.
Maggie Davis Wilson, assault with
a deadly weapon.
Herman Clarence Taylor, colored,
drunken driving.
Early Goodman, drunken driving.
Lester J. Martin, assault with a
deadly weapon.
Edgar Taylor, carrying a conceal
ed weapon.
Council Smith, drunken and reck
less driving.
Ernest Godard, drunken driving.
Raymond Vinters, drunken driv
ing.
Floyd Wilson, drunk and disor
derly and carrying a concealed weap
on.
Linwood Leslie Moore, carrying a
concealed weapon and violating the
motor vehicle laws.
Walter Wallace Bailey, operating
car without a driver's license, reck

highways.
Katherine Theresa Halpin, drunk
en driving.
Tim Council, Ruffin Council and
Anna Council, larceny of a 14-pound
turkey.
Wheeler Smith, violating the li
quor laws.
Eight or nearly one-third of the
regular cases on the docket charged
drunken driving.
Fire Department
Gets Two Calls
Wintry weather striking with in
creased force yesterday aggravated
the fire danger in many homes, and
two barely escaped destruction dur
ing the day.
The local fire department was call
ed out yesterday morning at 7:20
o'clock when smoke poured through
large cracks in the chimney of Susie
Hines' home on Wilson Street. No
damage was done.
Yesterday afternoon at 3:45 o'clock
fire, starting on the root around
flue, damaged the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Perlie Moore, near here, on the
Hamilton Road. Travelers saw the
smoke, stopped and helped bring the
fire under control. The local fire de
partment answered a call from the
home, and reached there Just as the
fire was checked. A fairly large hole
was burned in the roof. Neighbors,
almost certain the house would burn
down, had moved a greater part of
the furniture out of the house.
Country Springs Into
Action To Cope With
Serious War Dangers
OBSERVERS
v
Maybe we are sale tucked
some 100 miles away from the
coast. Maybe Hitler and his bar
barian hordes have never heard
o( and care less for us. but or
ders have been received by air
raid observers in this county, in
structing them to maintain 24
hour watches at their observa
tion posts. The order is a big one
(or the single observer, and so
(ar there has been no unified in
structions from the district ci
vilian defense head. It is a set
tled fact that one observer will
be unable to maintain a contin
uous vigil, and the observers
are looking to other volunteers
for help.
Hugh Spruill reported move
ment of four planes yesterday
afternoon after receiving his in
structions at noon. Other observ
ers over the county are making
similar reports. Some arrange
ments will have to be made to
help these observers who are
volunteering their service gra

Colored Residents
Here Raise $74.29
For The Red Cross
Total of $488.02 of $1,100
Initial Quota RaiM*d So
Far in Chapter
?
Receiving a liberal support from
Williamston's colored citizens, the
Red Cross membership drive now
stands at $488.02 in the Martin Coun
ty chapter or slightly more than $600
snort oi tne initial quota. The color
ed citizens reported $74.29. Several
of the five townships in this chap
ter have not even made a report as
far as it could be learned. Other
chapters in the _ county and State
have more than subscribed their ini
tial quotas, and upon receiving a sec
ond appeal issued following the dec
larations of war this week those
chapters are making progress on
their second quota. As far as it
could be learned late yesterday no
second quota had been assigned this
county, but it was unofficially learn
ed this morning that the organiza
tion is asking $2,000 more. A meet
ing will be held in the courthouse
next Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock
to outline plans for the drive.
It is generally believed that Wil
liams and Griffins Townships have
made a canvass but have not yet re
ported. Plans are being advanced to
launch a more extensive campaign
locally, and an announcement is ex
pected in this connection within the
next few days Martin County rais
ed thousands of dollars for the Red
Cross in the last war. The struggle
now underway is far more serious
and the need far greater and yet
less than $1,000 has been raised in
the entire county. When will our
people wake up? Many are still
waiting for someone to go around
and beg and beg them. Others can't
give up one single luxury for a sin
gle day. Others find excuse to with
hold a small donation. A few volun
teer to go forward with a liberal do
nation. If you haven't made your
contribution, mail it or deliver it to
Mrs. Jos. A. Eason, or leave it at one
of the local banks and it will surely
find its way to the national organ
ization. If you have already joined
and made a contribution, make an
other one if you possibly can. It is
no longer a sacrifice; it is a privilege
to contribute to the humane organ
ization.

Millions Are Now
Laying Foundation
For Final Victory
Our People1 Are Participating
In Tank Now Facing
The Nation
Even before appeals could be had
from national and state leaders, pa
triotic citizens throughout the nation
are coming forward to play their
part in the war and lay the founda
tion for final victory. It is encourag
ing indeed to note that our people in
Martin County are already partici
pating in the tremendous task, and
to believe that they will not falter
when the ,load becomes greater and
the going becomes more difficult.
From Oak City comes word about
a movement by the school children
to promote the sale of savings stamps.
Williamston's sixth grade is organ
izing a savings stamp club. The band
is announcing a savings stamp con
cert. Others are expected to ad
vance similar movements in every
nook and corner of the county.
Turning to the general public, one
finds a marked trend toward post
offices, banks and other establish
ments for the purchase of savings
stamps and bonds. The local postof
fice yesterday had sold out its $25
bonds. Where a few faithful ones had
been buying stamps with much reg
ularity, the many started buying
following the Japanese attack on ovir
forces at Pearl Harbor. The sale of
savings stamps and bonds has hard
ly started however, and we will have
hardly started on the victory road
until we multiply our present efforts
many times, possibly 50 or 100 times
more.
lne dark spot in the picture is the
support accorded the Red Cross in
this chapter. Comparative reports
would indicate that we are slackers
when it comes to supporting an agen
cy that is doing more for suffering
humanity on more fronts than any
other. The failure to support the
Red Cross is regarded as serious in
some quarters. Other chapters, much
smaller than the Martin County
chapter, over subscribed their first
quotas, and are making marked prog
ress in raising their second quotas
assigned following the declaration of
war the first of thi* week. If the
Martin County chapter has been as
signed a second quota, it has not been
made public by Harry Biggs.
A movement is now underway to
switch from the Christmas card to
the savings stamp and to exchange
savings stamps or bonds instead of
ordinary presents. Several thousand
dollars could be invested in savings
stamps and defense bonds if the
money ordinarily spent for Christ
mas cards and postage stamps in this
county were diverted to the war pur
pose.
The soldiers of this nation have a
right to look to and even demand
of the general public a strong sup
port, and the man who falters in
that task should be branded as a

Brother Seriously
Attacked With Axe
James Boston, Free Union colored
man, was critically attacked near his
home early yesterday afternoon by
his half-brother, Newsome Boston.
Using an axe, the attacker cut the
brother in the back, knocked him
down with a lick on the shoulder and
then delivered a well-directed blow
on the victim's forehead. The man
was still living, according to last re
ports reaching here.
Coming home unexpectedly about
1 o'clock, Newsome Boston found his
wife In the bedroom with the half
brother. Just as the husband knock
ed open the door, the wife went
out the window, taking the sash and
carrying it in record time to the
home of a neighbor. As the husband
rushed at his wife with the axe, the
half-brother skipped out the door.
Unable to get to his wife, Newsome
then turned on the half-brother with
the axe, striking the first two blows
as they both ran Neighbors would
not let him get to his wife, Newsome
stating later to the sheriff that he
would have killed her if he could
have gotten to her.
Going to a telephone, the husband
called the sheriff and told him of the
attack. Reaching the store where the
man waited, the sheriff was inform
ed that the attack victim was not yet
dead. "Let me go back and- finish the
job," Newsome was quoted as say
ing. The enraged husband Was ar
rested and is being held in jail pend
ing the outcome of his brother's con
dition.
Eight-Hour Convoy
Goes Through Here
For New Positions
Industry Already ou Twenty
four Hour Schedule Seven
Davs Each Week
Snapping out of a deep sleep en
joyed during the past two years
while treacherous murderers moved
closer and closer to their objective.
this nation following the stunning
blow received at the hands of a yel
low Japan last Sunday is rapidly
springing into action to meet a new
crisis, described by many as the most
serious to ever face the American
people. That the new emergency can
and will be handled is certain, but
the people believe the task will not
be an easy one and that it cannot be
handled in weeks or a few months.
American industry is humming in
igtv gear, running full speed-attract
24 hours a day and seven days a
week. Lifted from their feet by high
powered trucks and other types of
motorized equipment, troops are
moving Trom their camps to new po
sitions. The American public who
only a few days ago passed the ser
ious situation by as n national or
world-wide joke is awakening to
the grave dangers ahead and taking
action to support its government and
the men in the front lines. The trans
formation has been so sudden, so
great, that its full meaning can hard
ly be grasped in the space of a few
short days. The meaning, registered
at the moment by a sickening lump
in one's throat, will be revealed in
the mass production to come in the
days that lie ahead and in the ac
complishments on the battle fronts
on land and sea and in the air 4
Unannounced and their destina
tion held secret, several thousand
| troops moved northward through
here Wednesday afternoon and night.
Reverberations from Japan's declar
ation of war were heard, but the
movement of troops, fully equipped
and their guns in hand, through here
during the greater part of eight hours
added a realistic touch and brought
closer to home the dangers emanat
iiigLfrum a little empitc thousands of
miles away in the Pacific and from
a murderer's roost across the Atlan
tic.
There was a gum determination
on the faces of nearly every one of
the several thousand men who pass
ed through here Wednesday in the
30-mile-long convoy. Some, it was
learned, were disappointed because
Christmas furloughs were cancelled,
hut they were notwngry with anyone
except the Japs
Moving out of Camp Davis Wed
? nesday morning, the first of the 94th
iCoast Artillery units passed through
here at 2 25 that afternoon The last
of the several hundred vehicles
speeded through at 10 15 o'clock-that i
night. There were an estimated 600 j
vehicles, the estimates of the num |
ber of men ranging from 2,000 to
4,000 in addition to a special contin
gent moving northward from Fort
Bragg and camping here over night
Hundreds of search lights, guns and
signal units, mounted on special
trucks, were included in the con
voy.
Brief comments coming during a
short pause now and then from the
men clearly indicated that the arm
ed forces are ready for action and
possibly more unified and more an
xious to wipe Japan off the face of
the earth than are the folks back
home, if such were possible.
Running -into the convoy out of
Camp Davis at tins point, a special
contingent from Fort Bragg was side
tracked here over night. Headed by
Captain Merwyn C Lennon and
Lieutenants W. D. Workman, Jr., Lu
ther M McBee, all of South Caro
lina, and Kichard D. Curtin, of Mass
achusetts, the Fort Bragg anti-air
craft headquarters' battery was made
up of 85 men traveling in fifteen
trucks and several cars. The men set
up camp at the high school and were
quartered in the gymnasium and one
school room. Free pictures and other
entertainment were arranged by the
USO and individuals. The group
moved out the following morning at
8 o'clock, traveling northward possi
bly for duty some where along the
Atlantic Coast.
Aged Negro Woman
Lo ses Life In Fire
Jennie Bennett, aged colored wo
man was burned to death in a (ire
that destroyed her home in Hamil
ton early last Tuesday afternoon.
Ninety-three years old, the former
faithful slave, had betn sick several
weeks and was not seen outside the
house during that morning. Her
daughter was working away from
home, leaving the aged mother alone.
When the fire was discovered, the
small three-room house was burn
ing rapidly. Some one rushed inside
and found the aged woman already
burned to death in a pile of old pa
pers and rags, and efforts to remove
the body at that time were futile.
She had been a hard worker
throughout her long life, and was an
appreciative old soul, neighboni
pointed out.

Plans for listing property in Mar

toe-formula ted at a meeting of'thr"
tax supervisor. C. D. Carstarphen.
and the ten list-takers at a meeting
in the commissioners' room in the
courthouse next Mondy morning at
9 o'clock \
In addition to determining a sched- |
ule of values for personal property,
the tax authorities will discuss the |
new tax laws such as those exempt-1
ing certain types of farm produce.
It is possible that the elimination of I
all farm products grown in 1941 from I
the tax hooks will cause personal
property values to topple to a new
low unless the schedule for other
personal property items is increased.
The meeting is expected to decide
on a definite course for the list-tak
ers to follow Just how much the
elimination of farm produce from
the books will affect the total values
cannot be .determined, some tax ob
servers stating that the loss will not!
be very great.
Preliminary plans for a tax list
taken in strict accordance with the
terms of the law. Every property
owner and every person subject to |
poll tax will be required to list. It
is not likely that any names will be
brought forward. It is also fairly cer
tain that late listers will be made
subject to a penalty Thos who fail
oe refuse to list wilt be^itiade sub -
ject to prosecution in the courts af
ter very much the same pattern fol
lowed in rounding up alleged tax
dodgers in the county a few months
ago
Quite a few changes in the tax
listing personnel has been effected,
Supervisor C. D. Carstarphen stating
that six new list takers had been ap
pointed along with the four ojd ones
to handle the job this year. The
names of the list-takers are: J. Lin

Formal declarations of war by
Italy an! German against tlu- United 1
States and by the United States
again t Germany and Italy were
made yesterday, the action merely
recpgni/ing the state of conflict that
had existed for some months. The
situation, regarded as serious beyond
c< >mprehension, was little aggravat
ed by the action which in itself was
hardly regarded as news. Entering a
j taxi in New York yesterday, a pas
i soiigor asked the driver about the
late war news, .lie explained that
there was nothing new. A few min
utes later he casually mentioned the
German and Italian declarations of
war against the United States. Hit
ler's two-hour verbal barrage, cli
maxed by the war declaration near
the close yesterday morning, was
virtually ignored in this country.
Secretary of State Cordell Hull re
lused tp receive the German repre
sentative at the State Department
and the war declaration was placed
in the hands of a minor clerk there.
Within a few hours, President
j Roosevelt addressed a message to
the Senate and House, but the mes
sage was not delivered m person. A
