Allied Armies Pushing

German Opposition
k Crumbling In Most
Sectors of the Front
Million Russians Arc Moving
On Austria; Within 23
Miles of Berlin
The drive for Berlin is on witl
_ several armies pushing hard througl
l Germany from west and east. Lat<
reports state that enemy oppositioi
is crumbling, and rumors from neu
tral countries state that the Naz
military is on the verge of revolt
Marked gains are being made dailj
by Allied armies in the west while
the Russians, one report placing the
number at one million, are pushing
toward Vienna less than sixty-five
miles away
f After meeting with strong resist
ance during the first two days of its
drive across the Rhine, the British
2nd army was said this morning tc
have crashed the opposition and
pushed forward, taking 12,000 pris
oners in the first three days and
supporting its campaign with eight
bridges across the Rhino. General
George Patton’s forces are moving
so fast that the location of their
spearheads are kept secret. One re
port places the Americans five miles
* east of Limburg, and Patton’s ad
vance is believed less than 200 miles
from Berlin.
While the British were taking 12,
000 prisoners in three days, Patton's
men rounded up 18,818 in a single
day, boosting the total for the Third
A'-my to over 300,000. Nearly 70,000
Germans have been taken by the
Third Army since March 13.
While Patton’s men gained 80
miles, General Hodges’ First Army
► sprinted 35 miles from the Remagen
bridgehead, and General Patch
moved his Seventh Army forces
across the Rhine to the south.
Lt. General William Simpson's
Ninth Army, slugging deep into the
Ruhr, drove into Germany's indus
trial heart at better than a half
mile an hour and was reported with
in three miles of Essen.
Allied pilots, withdrawn from tac
tical bombing, reported a great ox
►- odus of German troops and materiel
out of Central Germany into the
high Alpine ranges near the Swiss
bordef, where the Nazis are expected
to make a last stand in prepared
mountain redoubts.
All along the battlefront, the great
Allied Armies were on the advance.
The Germans are falli .g back every
where.
No report has come from Hitler’s
It meeting with his party leaders last
night, but before the meeting Hitler
was said to have warned the Ger
mans to brace themselves for “un- j
fortunate news.” At the same time,
the Nazi leaders pleaded with the
Germans to fight on even though the
situation may appear hopeless. The
plea apparently is having its effect,
for stories tell about small children
shooting and killing American sol
^ diers. General Eisenhower ordered
that all such civilians firing upon
Americans were to be shot on the
spot without trial.
Over in the East, the Russians are
pushing a powerful drive on Austria,
less than 30 miles away. At the same
time the Kustrin front reports in
creased action, and the Red Armies
in that sector were reported to be
within 25 miles of Berlin. Danzig,
isolated far behind the lines, is about
► to fall.
In the Pacific theater, the Ameri
cans are expanding rapidly, accord
ing to reports coming from Tokyo.
The reports have not yet been con
firmed, but it was announced that
American warships and planes were
bombarding Okinawa Island in the
Ryukyu group about 380 miles from
Japan proper. The Japs say the Am
ericans have landed on several small
islands in that area, while back in
' the Philippines the Japs say Mac
Arthur’s men are invading Cebu,
third largest of the islands.
Farmers Of Martin Launch
1945 Program In a Big Way
-
Coinciding with the big push in
Germany, Martin County farmers,
favored by unusually good weather,
are launching their 1945 program in
a big way these days. Despite the
limited manpower and machinery
shortages there has been much twist
ing and turning on the farms during
the past few days and much has been
accomplished. Hundreds of acres of
land have been plowed or disked,
bui as far as it could be learned no
spring plantings have been made
With Good Friday near a. hand,
preparations are being made rapid
ly for the first of the spring plant
ings, a task that home and victory
gardeners will join in after a hearty
fashion.
General reports indicate that about
the same acreage will be planted to
the major crops this year as were
planted in 1944 with a slight in
crease in peanut plantings in pros
pect. Many victory gardeners were
about ready to rest upon their past
laurels, but following the issuance
of warnings that the food situation
is entering possibly its most serious
year of the war, they are making
ready for another round with the
bugs and beetles in the hope that
they will be able to contribute to
the war effort.
Tobacco farmers are already off
to a good star! with their annual
worrying. Tobacco plants, some- al
most as large across as one’s hand,
are consideraoly advanced, and the
farmers believe plantings well in
advance of the season will be neces
sary. However, they are aware of
possible setbacks by cold weather
and the blue mold. Unless there are
blue mold attacks and if the weather
continues waiin, tobacco transplant
ings will be in order about the mid
dle of April.
THIRD TIME

Cpl. Norman White
Home From Pacific
Area For Furlough
Wounded
■'in Ptdeliu, Says
Saved His Life
Dangerously wounded in the Pele
liu Island of the Palau group last
September 26. Cpl. George Norman
White arrived yesterday to spend a
30-day furlough in the county with
his mother. Mrs. W. A. White. Al
though he carries an ugly scar,
which, no doubt, will bo remedied
in a series of future operations, the
young man appeared in the best of
spirits during a stay of a few minutes
here yesterday afternoon.
Cpl. White, a member of the First
Marine Division, did not have mucli
to say about the war and his part in
it. But he did say that possibly he
owed his life to blood plasma. Under
enemy fire he was given two units
and later transferred to a hospital
ship. “We had pushed forward over
a ridge on the island and the Japs
closed in behind us. We had to fight
gnr way back for ammunition will)
the Jap snipers firing upon us from
all sides," the young man explain
ed. While crossing a small clearing
for the fourth time ,a sniper sent a
soft nose bullet into him, striking
him just behind the right ear and
plowing through the jawbone and
tearing through the side of his face.
During the long journey home on
the hospital ship, the young man was
able to hobble around some. "I
thought I was pretty badly wound
ed, but when I saw others with limbs
torn away, I considered myself for
tunate," Cpl. White said. After reach
ing the States he met some other
boys who had been on Peleliu, and
they were surprised to see him. They
were afraid he could not survive the
wound.
After a stay of several months at
Norman, Oklahoma. Cpl. White was
transferred to the Naval Hospital at
Norfolk. He was able to come home
for an over-night visit a few days
ago, and just recently saw his broth
er, Cecil, who came east from Miss
ouri on a special detail.
Upon the completion of his thir
ty-day furlough, he will return to
the hospital and undergo several op
erations.
Local Boy’s Unit
Earns Great Honor
The 101st Airborne Division of
which Hilly Biggs, local young man
is a member, recently received the
Presidential Citation, the first ever
awarded an entire army division.
The award was made "for extraor
dinary heroism and gallantry” for
the epic defense of Bastogne last
December. It is believed that at
least one other Martin County young
man is in the outfit, but his name
could not be learned.
The First, Second and Fourth Ma
rine Divisions have been awarded
Presidential Citations for action in
the Pacific.
After the veterans had passed in
review, General Eisenhower who
presented the award, told them:
“I am awfully proud of you.”
He declared that the tradition es
tablished in the award, “therefore,
always will be associated with the
name of the 101st Airborne Divi
sion.
“Yet you men, because you are sol
diers of proved valor and of exper
ience, would be the last to claim that
you are the bravest. All the way
from where Marines are fighting on
Iwo Jima, through the Philippines
and Southeast Asia, on through the
Mediterranean and along this great
front and on the Russian frontiers
are going forward day by day those
battles sustained by the valor of you
and other Allied units that are beat
ing this enemy to his knees. They
are proving, once and for all, that
dictatorship cannot produce better
soldiers than can aroused democra
cy.”
Later reports coming from unof
ficial sources indicate that the 101st
went into action a few days ago when
its men dropped behind enemy lines
across the Rhine.
Miss Mary L. Taylor
Enters Nurses’ Corps
After faithfully serving the Mar
tin County Health Department for
about two years, Miss Mary L. Tay
lor last Saturday entered the Army
Nurse Corps. She volunteered her
services some time ago but was or
dered to report just a short time ago.
Several nurses have served the
health department, and while all
of them rendered a valuable service,
possibly none was more willing and
anxious to bolster the general health
and lighten the buiden ill health had
placed in those homes where oppor
tunities were limited.
Mrs. H. L. Daniels is succeeding
Miss Taylor in the department for
the present.
Several other county young wo
men are entering the nurse corps,
including Misses Gurganus, Whitley,
Mallory and possibly one or two
more.

Eii.il torn Months
Writing from a station hospital
over in the Philippines, Cpl. A. D.
Johnson told about meeting several
Martin County boys. His letter, dated
March 7th, follows, in part:
. . This morning when I went
to work someone came to me and
said, ‘Hello, boy, how are you do
ing?' I turned around and there
before me stood Ben (Spo|t) Hop
kins. It was such a surprise that I
hardly knew what to say. Boy, was
I some happy to see him, and he
seemed mighty happy to see me.
“We went out to his truck and
there were James Morris Stalls.
Haywood Wynne and Robert James
from Robersonville. I have never
felt better than when I saw all those
good ole Martin County fellows. We
talked for a long time about things
we had seen and about the folks back
home. We even did a little Martin
County farming here in the Philip
pines. After a little while we rode
out to see a boy from Farm Life, Joe
Elbert Ward He was the sixth one
in the group from home. You can’t
imagine how it makes a fellow feel
when he gels around some other
fellows from home. After we left
Joe Ward we went to dinner, got a
table to ourselves and started talk
ing about things back home again.
"Old Ben (Sport) Hopkins is get
ting along just fine. He looks the
best I have ever seen him. Of course,
he is doing O. K. for himself with
these gals.
"James Morris Stalls hasn’t chang
ed any at all. He looks just like he
did when I last saw him back home.
He’s getting along just fine and dan
dy.
“Haywood (the ballplayer) Wynne
is as healthy as any one you want to
see. I think he has gained some
weight since I last saw him.
"I went to school with Robert
James, lie’s not doing bad, but he
wants to go home to his wife, and I
can’t blame him.
“You can see that Martin County
is well represented over here in the
Philippines. After being overseas for
nearly eighteen months, I finally ran
into some fellows from homo . . .’’
Wounded Soldier b
Home On Furloudi
p
Wounded twice, once on the Arizio
beachhead in Italy and a second time
several months later in France,
James Bareli ft, nephew of Mr. W R.
Banks of Williamston, is spending
a few days here before returning to
Battey General Hospital, Rome, Ga.,
for further treatments.
A native of Perquimans County,
the young man worked at the bus
station here for two years before
being inducted from this county on
March 2!), 1943. After receiving his
basic training at Camp Blanding he
went overseas and was in the second
wave to push ashore on the Anzio
beachhead. He was wounded on April
2 in the chest and on the arm by
shell fragments, and was removed
to a hospital in Naples. After a stay
of one month there lie returned to
his service company and participat
ed in the invasion of Southern
France, and was wounded on De
cember 2, suffering a broken knee
cap. He was evacuated to England
where he spent almost three months
and was returned to the States about
three weeks ago.
The invasion of Southern France
was peaceful and quiet compared to
that hectic period spent on the
beachhead, the young man said. “And
it is great to be home again.”
Leaving here Thursday he will
visit his mother, Mrs. James M. Bar
clift, in Perquimans County, and re
turn to the hospital about April 4.

Is Spent For Liquor
Since Stores Opened
Sales Last Quarter Are Larg
est for Any Period in Al
most Ten Years
Liquor sales, legal or illegal, broke
all previous records in this county
during the last three months of 1944
when the four county alcoholic bev
erages control stores did a $172.
520.25 business, boosting the total
I sales for the year to $439,477.45 and
to $1,971,860.00 for the approximate
ly ten years the stores have been
operated with the blessings of the
county and state. The previous high
record in sales was reported back
in the fourth quarter of 1943 when
(sales totaled $137,476.80. But that
.record figure was topped by more
than $35,000 last quarter, the sales
more than doubling those for the
corresponding quarter in 1943.
Possibly liquor price increases ac
count for part of the record gain in
sales, but accepting the figures at
[face value it is fairly evident that
palates, hard or soft, were well sat
urated. It is fairly apparent that per
capita consumption underwent its
greatest increase during the period,
that the sales when added to those
handled by the beer and wine deal
ers account for an expenditure that
dwarfs amounts spent for education,
religion and individual investments
for the rainy days predicted for the
postwar period. The striking increase
in liquor consumption in this county
is offered in bold relief when the
$37,379.29 sales for the fourth quar
ter in 1936 are compared with the
$172,526.25 sales for the correspond
ing period in 1944.
While sales last quarter were more
than double those for the last three
months in 1943, profits were not.
quite twice as large, but they are
now the largest on record for any
quarter during the more than nine
year legal liquor selling period. Prof
its, placed at $41,479.42 last quarter,
now total $485,991.22. The last quar
ter profit pie cutting gave North
Carolina $13,681.44; Martin County,
$20,014.54; Town of William'ton, $2,
615.18; Town of Robersonville, $1.
419.37; Town of Oak City, $488.03,
and Town of Jamesville, $481.06
Nearly $3,000, or $2,779.80, was set
aside as a reserve for law enforce
ment.
Of (lie $172,526.25 taken in by
the stores last quarter, $127,639.15
was paid to the distillers in Ken
tucky, Pennsylvania and several oth
er states.
To operate the system, the board
paid $2,961.07 for direct store ex
penses and $1,580 98 for administra
tive and general expenses.
As of last December 31, the system
had $34,740.51 in cash on hand, $38,

Eleven County Children Look
To Easter Seal Sale For Help
Eleven little county children, their
limbs warped and twisted, are anx
iously awaiting the outcome of the
sale of Easter seals now underway.
A liberal response to the current call
for support of the annual sale of
Easter seals means that the little
tots wiil have a chance to have their
limbs mended and travel through
Without crutches or retarding
limps. Three of the eleven were
treated at a clinic in Tarboro this
week. Two others are on the waiting
list and will take their turn at the
orthopedic clinic It. Gastonia' — "if
their appeals are heard.
This county is being asked to raise
$1,475 for the Crippled Children’s
Fund, Miss Mary W. Taylor, chair
man, said yesterday. Special appeals
have been issued by direct mail, and
the school children are being called
upon to again support a worthy un
dertaking. The schools are asked to
raise approximately $400 while ten
persons are being called upon by di
rect mail to contribute $25 each.
Twenty-five are asked to contribute
$10 each and one hundred are being
called upon for $5 each, and seven
ty-five for $1 eflch. will
be offered for sale- on the streets next
Saturday.
A large portion of the money rais
