ESTABLISHED 1899 Russians Take Kiev ■Aim! Toward Border of Rumania ——#—— "31* lilies Continue Slow but Steady Drive on Rome -*— Overcoming an enemy force of more than 125,000 men, the Russians last week-end captured the import ant Ukranian city of Kiev and push ed on toward the Rumanian border to feature a new and devastating blow against Hitler and his hordes. After slaying the enemy by the thousands, the Red Army did not tarry long at Kiev but continued its march southwestward. Travelling as many as twenty miles a day, the Russians have left the city more than 50 miles behind and are now within 130 miles of the Rumanian border. Late reports said that the Rus sians encountered no minefields, pillboxes or hedgehog defenses ir their push southwest of Kiev, that the retreat was so rapid the Ger mans had no time to plant the ob stacles. Meanwhile, Soviet forces, consol idating their bridgeheads north and south of Kerch, at the eastern tip of the Crimea, improved their positions. The Nazis confirmed heavy fighting around Kerch, but said that small Russian battle groups had been ‘‘an nihilated or repelled.” West and southwest of Nevel, on the front north of Vitebsk, the Rus sians occupied several more places which carried them to within 50 miles of the old Polish border. Moscow announced that 219 Ger man tanks were destroyed or dam aged Saturday, when Kiev fell, and 74 planes shot down. Dispatches from the front said that entire sections of Kiev were engulfed in flames when the Soviets entered. In Italy the Allied Fifth and Eighth Armies are doggedly pushing on toward Rome. On the Adriatic coast, the Eighth is within twenty-eight miles of the port of Pescara, and the Fifth is driving on Gaeta, about 70 miles from Rome. In the South Pacific, the Allies have enlarged their bridgehead on Bougainville Island and the Jap po sition in that area was described to day by Navy Secretary Knox as the most critical since the war was start ed. Hitler barred again at his beer hall in Munish last night, and while he virtually admitted that civilian mor ale was breaking in Germany, his talk was not considered very encour aging for any immediate peace. He declared that the Nazi? would stay in the fight until the bitter end. Prime Minister Churchill said to day that the Allies would win the European war next year if no mili tary mistakes are made. He warned that Hitler still had 400 divisions, that the strength of Germany today is greater than all that the Kaiser put into the field in the last war. ‘‘We have licked the submarine men ace, and we are pounding the enemy on several fronts, but the fight will be long and costly,” Churchill de clared. Today, important steps were taken to balance want and production throughout the world when forty four nations met and signed a pledge for United Nations Relief and Re habilitation. President Roosevelt, in a brief address early this afternoon, praised the plan, and pointed out that it was not a proposal for one nation to finance or feed all other nations, but that it was a plan to clothe the naked and feed the hun gry with all producing nations tak ing part until each country could ac cept the burden of maintaining it self. Finds Robber In Gas Station Here —-» Returning to the Gulf filling sta tion on Washington Street here last Sunday night at 10:30 o’clock to get something, Alton VanNortwick, an employee, found a robber hidden be hind the counter. One report stated that the robber, a young colored man whose identify v not immed iately''revealed" by Officers Chas. Moore aad John Gurganus, jumped and ran, leaving his hat about half full of pennies lying on the floor. It was also reported that Mr. VanNort wick was so surprised that he could do nothing but watch the man escape. The robber forced an entrance by knocking out a glass in a back win dow and releasing the window catch. Nothing was missed from the sta tion. Two County Brother* Land Safely At Foreign Posta a— Two brothers, Pfc. Gradie B. Har dy and T. Sgt. Martel Hardy, recent ly landed safely at foreign posts, their parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. L.. Hardy, of this county, were notified a few days ago. Pvt. Hardy, member of an Army Air Corps ground crew, landed somewhere in England, and the ser geant, first engineer on a Flying Fortress, landed in Africa, it was learned.

Williams, ROUND-UP Following a peric* wh<r one person was arrested and jailed for public drunkenness, officers rounded-up four drunks and jailed them here last week-end. The number of arrests is com paratively small considering the fact that liquor sales bounced up to $2,685 in tha local ABC store last Saturday. The liquor sales last Saturday were only about $60 below those reported on December 24 of last year, a record up until that time. One of the law victims was white, and the ages of the group ranged from 21 to 36 years.

The new arrangement was ordered following an audit of the ration board records by representatives of the State of fice a few days ago. It was pointed out that all ap plicants in preparing their ap plications for special rations should give their complete mail ing addresses, including box and RFD numbers and post office, and names should be spelled cor rectly and written legibly.

The Office of War Information sug gests the following outline for writ ing to the boys: Tell how everyone is getting along, how anxious every one is for the boys’ return, what is being done at home to help win the war, what’s doing in the old home community, news about the girls they know, doings of friends, who’s mar rying whom, effects of the war on the home front. Don't tell them your troubles, for they have troubles of their own, no doubt. Don’t complain, for they can’t help. Don’t gripe about the things you are deprived of be cause they can't supply them. Food For Freedom Will Be Discussed At County Meeting —— Extension Division Authori ties To Lead Disenssions On November 18th “Although American farmers are setting a new food production rec ord this year, there is still not en ough food to satisfy all the demands,” says Dean I. O, Schaub, director of Agricultural Extension work at State College, “and since America’s food supply represents perhaps the great est potential weapon in our fight against the Axis we must produce more.” In outlining the objectives to be accomplished in the 1944 “Food Fights for Freedom” program which will be launched in every county in the State between November 15-19, Director Schaub points out that it is up to our people to cooperate in every way possible in the production of more of the right kind of food; to conserve this food, and avoid waste. “The demand for food has been increased from both civilians and military authorities. Civilians are doing more work and have more money than they have had in the past. We are taking new territotry from the enemy every day. This ter ritory has been stripped of every vestige of food and the natives are starving. We must feed them,” untii they can again produce their own, Dean Schaub said. Food—American food—can be the deadliest weapon of all. Plans for producing the right kind of food will be discussed at a meeting to be held in the Martin County courthouse on November 18th, at 7:30 p. m. when tl. e in charge of the program in this section will draw up the cou.'ty plans. Since the course and length of the war may depend on how successful ly we produce this food, how willing ly and widely we share it, how care fully we save it, how wisely we use it, every person able to produce a single item of food should cooperate fully in this program, Director Schaub concluded. School Attendance Dragging In County _—*_— A gloomy report, painting a dark picture ot daily attendance figures in many of the county schools, was released this week by the office of superintendent of schools. In some af the schools, as many as 23 out of every 100 pupils were absent on an average during the second month re cently ended. In one school, Farm Life, a near perfect attendance rec □rd was reported. According to Prin cipal Tommie Gaylord there have been a few days when every child enrolled was present at Farm Life, the average for the second month bolding to 98 per cent. Only one white school. Bear Grass, reported in a^r-rage Attendance figure below. JO per cent, but most of the aver ages for the colored schools were be low 80 per cent of the enrollment figures. School officials could offer no jood reason for the dragging attend ance figures. It is understood that work—honest-to-goodness work — is teeping very few of the tots out of school. It is apparent that indiffer ence on the part of the parents and the children themselves is making itself felt, and, to, it is possible that the weak or no enforcement of the compulsory attendance law is hav ng much to do with the shocking lumber of absences. -* County Teachers In First Meeting Here The first in a series of four coun .y-wide teachers’ meetings was held lere last Friday afternoon in the ligh school. All schools were v/eil ^presented. The next meeting of the group will oe held on December 8th. TOWN - FARM in wartime* (A weekly news digest from the rural press section of thy 4MJE?.

WFA Releases Canned Foods Approximately 2,790,000 eases of canned peaches, pea« and tomato catsup were released to consumers recently by the War Food Adminis tration. The canned goods probably v/ill not reach retail shelves for sev eral weeks. These foods were a por tion of the reserves owned and held by canners to meet possibly emer ge ncy requirements of the govern ment. Reduce Octane in Gas Premium gasoline used by civil ians will be reduced from 78 and 80 octane to 76-octane to conserve tet raethyl lead and volatile gasoline fractions, both of which are requir ed in the manufacture of high-oc tane military gasoline. More than 50 million gallons of gasoline, fuel oils, lubricants, and other petroleum oroducts are going directly to the fighting forces every day, the Pe troleum Administration for War dis closed. One-third of all gasoline pro duced in the U. S. is now required for military purposes. Plenty of Turkeys The civilian turkey supply, just starting to come on the market, will be almost as large as last year, ac cording to the Department of Agri culture. However, this year's de mand will probably be much larger and shoppers will be wise to put in orders early. Men and women on duty in the American armed forces, at home and abroad, will be served a pound of turkey at dinner Thanks giving Day and will have all the tra ditional “fixin’s." Ceiling prices range from 4! to 45 cents a pound. V-Mail Christmas Presents Relatives and friends still have time to send men and women over seas V-mail notices of war bond gifts for Christmas. The Army Postal Service has assured delivery by De cember 25 of all V-mail notices sent before- Dcs mber 1. War bonds as Christmas gifta wii! help to hold down inflationary buying of scarce merchandise, and will be a financial cushion for the service man or wo man upon return to civilian life, the Treasury Department added. “C” Registrants Get Affidavits Special forms were mailed by the War Board this week to the approx imately 1,800 “C” draft registrants in this county with directions to show and prove their production un its on the farms this year. The reg tst.rn.nta are warned tfu>t the atfida vits must be prepared and returned to the War Board office in the agri cultural building in Williarnston on or before* the 18th of this month. The number of “C” registrants — 2-C meaning single men and 3-C meaning married men—is listed, by townships, as follows Intervieuing A ppiican Is For SPARS Here Today Yeoman 3-c Anita Fournier of the U.

Respected Citizen Held Sunday Afternoon Mrs. Laura Peel Taylor, highly es teemed local citizen, died at her home on West Main Street last Friday af ternoon at 5:15 o’clock following a long period of declining health. Suf fering a stroke of paralysis several years ago, Mrs. Taylor had been in feeble health since that time, but she was able to be up most of the time until about a week before her death when she suffered a relapse, the end coming gradually. The daughter of the late Daniel and Sarah Frances Howell Peel, she was born in this county seventy years ago. In early womanhood she was married to Henry D. Taylor who died some years ago. They made their home near Williamston for many years, moving here about fif teen years ago. A devoted mother and possessed of a true Christian character, she saw much good in her fellowman, and despite her infirmi ties in recent years she seemed to get much out of life. A member of the Baptist Church for many years, she was faithful in her worship and her humble and uprighteous walk through life set a worthy example for others to follow Mrs. Taylor is survived by three sons, Herman D. Taylor, of William ston; Harry C. Taylor, of Norfolk, and Dr. Cecil G. Taylor, a lieutenant (j.g.) in the Navy who is now an in structor at the Naval Academy at An napolis, and four daughters, Misses Virginia and Vivian Taylor, of Greensboro; Mrs. A. It. Smith, of Washington, D. C., and Mrs. W. C. M Clusney, of Mojava, Calif. She is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Marion Green, of Robersonville, and two brothers, Messrs. G. A. Peel, of this county, and S. J. Peel, of Bel haven. Funeral services were conducted at the home Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock by her pastor, Dr. Wm. R. Burrell. Interment was in the Tay lor family cemetery, near William ston. Two Persons Hurt When Cars Crash Tv.'tf'pwJMj-f!i, or e badiy, when two cars sideswiped each oth er on the Palmyra Road leading off Highway No. 125 at Conoho Church about H o’clock last Sunday morning. Lorenza Bryant, driver of an old model A, was dangerously cut on the forehead and Sam Jenkins, colored and a passenger in the Bryant car, was cut on the hand. The Bryant car, traveling toward the hard surface, and a 1940 model car driven by Robert E. Duvall Lee Hux, of Newport News, sideswiped each other on a curve in the road during the heavy fog Hux and his companion, Joe Martin, ol Oak City,* were not hurt. The Bryant car turn ed over and the Hux car travelled 07 yards down the highway. Damage to the Hux car was estimated at about $250 and that to the Bryant car at $50. Charged with operating a car on the wrong side of the highway, Bry ant was given a preliminary hear ing before Justice Hopkins in Oak City Sunday afternoon. The case was sent to the county court and Judge J. C. Smith remanded it to the trial justice, explaining that it was in the inferior court’s jurisdic tion to handle the case. -——*--— Rev. Hurley la Returning For Hi* Fourth Year Here —.. .».— Rev. B. T. Hurley, local popular minister, is returning for his fourth year as pastor of the Methodist Church as a result of action taken at the recent Methodist conference held in Rocky Mount. The conference was the most suc cessful held in years. signed quota. the live townships in this district have raised and reported exclusive of the colored citizenry a total of $8,138.53. The colored citizens have raised and turned in to date a total of $198.92, boosting the total for the district to $8,337.45. It is understood that the drive among the colored citizens is nearing completion, that a full report is expected within the next few days. An indirect report from Rev. J. M. Perry, canvass chairman for the five townships in District No. 2. states that a total of approximately $1,900 had been raised and reported there to date, boosting the total to $10, 237.45, an amount just $243.55 short of the assigned quota for the entire county. Reports from Robersonville state that the drive is progressing for District No. 2 and that late dona tions will carry the drive near the $3,500 goal. Williamston’s municipally own ed cemetery without a name since it was acquired from the local Memorial Baptist Church some months ago will be known as “Woodlawn” in the future. The name, one of three suggest ed by s special committee of the local Woman's Club, was adopt ed by the board of town commis sioners in regular session last evening. Two other names, Greenwood and Westmoorland, were in the group suggested by the club com mittee. Westmoorland was sug gested possibly because the land was once owned by the late James Kdwin Moore, a promi nent citizen and barrister. The name was a bit long, the board members thought. Greenwood is the name of Greenville’s ceme tery. Other than give the local cemetery a name and approve current bills, the commissioners handled no other business at the meeting last evening.

Holding Series Of Services In Loral Church This Week \ilx»rt Kdwards Heard In Forceful Sermons At Presbyterian Church A long-time friend of Rev. Gow er Crosswell, the pastor, Rev. Albert G. Edwards, pastor of the Orange (Va.) Presbyterian Church, opened a series of services in the local Pres byterian Church Sunday morning. The meeting, scheduled to continue through Friday evening of this week, is attracting large crowds, and the visiting minister is being heard in a series of forceful sermons. A summary of his first three re ligious discussions follows: Sunday Morning—“Emergency Religion” ' There are no atheists in fox holes;” “There are no atheists on life rafts adrift on the Pacific.” These are familiar expressions born of this second World War. They are phrases coined by men who have come face to face with the stark reality of death in jungles, in slit trenches, and in shell holes, and who for the first time in their lives have realized their dependability upon a Power higher and mightier than themselves. Find ing themselves at life’s extremities they have suddenly got religion, but it is an emergency religion—a re ligion born of impending tragedy. But emergency religion is not a religion peculiar to this age; it is a common factor of every age. It is found in the life of Jacob, and in the history of Israel; it is true of the Psalmist when he said, “What time I am afraid I will trust in the Lord,” and there is evidence of it in the ex periences of Jonah. If it is a common factor of every age, one must ask if its results are permanent, and that’s a difficult question to answer. Far too often the outcome is that expressed in the words of Dr. Euricius Cordus: “God the doctor we alike adore, When on the brink of danger, not before; The danger past, both are alike re quited, God is forgotten, and the doctor slighted.” However, it is nothing short of a tragedy that it should require life’s extremities to reveal to us the true worth of our religion, and for all of us there is the warning that now, while the skies of life are bright and unclouded, is the time to prepare for the “Fox-holes” of life. Emergency religion will have some value for us, but it will only be a religion of refuge and not one of power; it will steady us because we have cast our anchor, but it will never enable us tc set sail into the storms and fogs of life, confident that come what may, we will be more than conquer ors through Him who loved us and gave Himself for us. Sunday Night — “Busy Here And There” “Inasmuch as 1 was busy here and there, the prisoner escaped.” In one of the richest of the Old Testament parables, found in the twentieth chapter of First Kings, that was the excuse offered by the guard who al lowed the prisoner he was guarding to escape. Today, there is the grave danger that we as a people are becoming so “busy here and there” that matters of prime importance are being neg- * lected; far too often the little and the lesser things are in the fore ground of our thinking and our act ing. Our religion is in danger because we are “busy here and there.” It is not an intentional neglect on our (Continued or page six) Reynolds Backs Out Of U. S. Senate Race Robert Rice Reynolds, nearing the [>nd of his second term, will not be a candidate to succeed himself as United States Senator next year, it was officially announced in Wash ington yesterday. Immediately foi Isv.ing the announcement, it was openly suggested that Reynolds, a big disappointment in North Caro lina politics these past eleven years, saw the haridw: ig on the wall and withdrew before he was scalped in [he primary next May. The man, for the most part, has arought nothing upon North Caro lina except disgrace, his antics in the Senate resembling so clearly those if a trained circus clown. Reynolds, about two years ago, covered his re reat from politics when he married ’or the fifth time and apparently struck it rich. Reynolds, the play aoy, was one of five Senators to op pose the peace resolution in the Senate only last week. -i- , Local Young Man Has Good Record In Navy -<Sy Entering the Navy last June, Ru jert E.
