Arrest Three For
Playing The Old

Attempting to play the old
pockctbook game on the local
streets Thursday morning, three
colored men not only failed but
they also fell into the hands of
local police. The three colored
men, John Henry Doyle, 45; Ray
mond Williams, 33, and Smith
Wilson, 49. are being held in the
county jail, ponding the comple
tion of an investigation. A hear
ing will he held before Justice J
L. Hassell later in the week.
Meeting Ethel Bonds on the
corner of Main and Smithwick
ne of the trio waited.,
along beside her or> North Smith -
the confederate “found” the
planted pockctbook near the cor-1
ner of Academy Street. Doyle,
accompanying the Bonds woman, j
'“akx htr'lhat he saw Wilson pick,
up something. Doyle called toj
that he would report to police un
less a three-way division of the
find was made. When the Bonds
woman was called upon to put up
so much money while the other
went to get the approximately
$125 changed, she refused, and the
old pocketbook game backfired in
the nim-flammers’ faces.
The Bonds woman retraced her
steps to Main Street and reported
to the police department. A few
minutes later Officer John Roe
buck rounded up. two of the
men. Shortly thereafter Officers
Roebuck and Chas. Moore picked
up the third member of the trio,
but not until they had run a heat
ed race.
Carried to the police station,
two-c-f thB-mcr. irnmediate

tim, and the third one admitted he
was a member of the group. The
flim-flam attempt was admitted.
Checking the records, police
found that John Doyle had served
a year on the roads in Florida for
playing the pocketbook game,
that he had served time in Wash
ington, D. C., and Baltimore. Wil
son served six months in Norfolk
for a similar offense.
Said to have made their head
quarters in Norfolk, the trio spent
Wednesday night in Roberson

not been checked at an early hour

Georgia Markets
Average 44 Cents

Closing the season last week,
Georgia’s tobacco markets sold
140,019,378 pounds at an average
price of $44.12, according to an of
ficial report just recently releas

Prices in Georgia started off at
a high point and held to that fig

during the latter part of the seas

At the close of sales Wednesday
afternoon for a week’s breathing
spell, the Williamston Tobacco
Market had sold 2,246,208 pounds
of the golden leaf, including a
large Quantity of the nondescript
type, for a general average to date
of $49.89. So far this season the
market has paid the growers $1.
120,531.58. During the first eight
days of the 1945 season, the local
market sold 2.101,798 pounds for
about a 44-cent average, the price
figure this year ranging a little
over $5 a hundred above the av
erage a year ago.
A few fanners were in the mar
keting area and even though
there were no sales there was
much activity in and around the
j warehouses. Company workers
| were busy removing tobacco that
had been on the floors since Mon
day, the few farmers milling in
and out of the houses inquiring
when they could deliver their
next loads.
| Reports from the companies
stale that the redrying plants and
factories were literally bulging
with record deliveries. The local
plant management stated Thurs
day morning that there was some
doubt if the accumulation of to
bacco could be handled and pack

spite the pleas present indications
point to a big rush following the
reopening. It is predicted in some
quarters already that selling lime
will be curtailed soon after the
markets are reopened, that pos
sibly a second holiday will be
necessary.
The local market plans to start
receiving farmers’ tobacco next
Tuesday for sale Thursday.
A review of the sales for Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday of
I this week shows a fairly wide
fluctuation in prices. Part of the
fluctuation in the price average is
traceable to the increased quan

they did the early part of last

this group of excerpts from his re

6. “During the first six months
of 1944 the German oil production
was reduced by at least 40 per
cent as a result of the bombing of
the plants by the Strategic Air
Forces, and the outcome was seen
in the trials of the enemy rein
forccmens and supply columns as
they struggled toward Norman
dy. ... ”
7. “When the enemy planes did
come up, they showed a marked
tendency to avoid combat. Only
on 12 June did they react in any
considerable strength when a
mass onslaught was made on
French airfields by 1,448 Fortress
es and Liberators of the U. S.
Eighth Air Force—the largest
force of heavy bombers hitherto
airborne on a single mission. On
this occasion the enemy suffered
severely at the hands of the Al
lied fighters and failed to reach
the bombers. The reluctance
normally shown to engage our
planes was doubtless in part dic
tated by the need to conserve a
depleted strength; but there was
also noticeable a lack of organiza
ion and experience on the part of
the German pilots. The persistent
RAF night bombing attacks of the
past had led the German com
mand to concentrate on the train
ing and development of night
fighters, with the result that day
fighter pilots were generally of a
poorer standard arid rarely a
match for their Allied opponents.
As a consequence of this weak
ness, our forces—both on opera
tions over the batile area and on
long-range strategic id
missions—frequently encountered
no air opposition whatsoever, and
the over-all weekly Allied losses
averaged only about 1 percent of
the aircraft employed. . . .

RAF Halifaxes and Lancasters
dropped over 5,000 tons of bombs
in less than 45 minutes on the
area south of the river over which
the ground assault was to be
made, United States planes at
tacked the enemy concentrations
to the rear and on the flanks. In
the carpet bombing, fragmenta
tion bombs were used to break the
enemy resistance without causing
extensive cratering which would
have hindered the advance of our
tanks. At the same time, a strong
naval bombardment was made to
supplement the air effort. ..."

THE RECORD
SPEAKS . . .
Limited during the 34th
week to one accident and a
property loss of $300, the ac
cident record for this year is
already a black one because
of the early start taken by
motorists in wreaking havoc
on Martin County highways.
Compared with last year both
the number and property loss
to date are doubled while the
fatalities are equal at 3 each.
Unlike 1945, this year found
no rise in the accident rate on
opening of the tobacco mar
kets. The past two weeks
have produced but one re
portable accident.
The following tabulations
offer a comparison of the ac
cident trend: first, by corres
ponding weeks in this year
and last and for each year to
the present time.

Reports Point To
Crowded Schools
In Martin County
Every Inch Including The
Auditorium Overrun In
Colored School
-£
No complete review of opening
day enrollment figures in all the
schools could be had late Thurs
day afternoon, but preliminary
reports trickling in from a few of
the schools revealed crowded con
ditions in most of them.
Williamston's colored school
had so many pupils that every
inch of space was overrun, in
cluding the auditorium. There
were so many trying to find a
place to park that a complete
count could not be had immedi
ately. However, the number en
rolling there is well over 700. Pos
sibly the auditorium will be par
titioned to care for the increase.
The first report coming from
Oak City stated that 399 had en
rolled there, 258 in the elemen
tary and 141 in the high school.
Elementary figures were increas
ed by 14 and the high school en
rollment was 43 greater than it
was on opening day last year. The
report was released without com
ment, but it is believed that the
Hobgood High School reported
there.
With a total enrollment of 853,
Williamston broke all records for
an opening day. There were 697
in the elementary as compared
with 665 a year ago. In the high
school the enrollment jumped
from 125 last, year to 156, about 25
of the number having been held
over from the eleventh grade.
Robersonville’s opening was
delayed when some of the busses
ran out of gas. The school offic
ials will try to pry the plants
open there Friday morning.
No reports could be had from
the other schools except poplar
Point where fifty were enrolled.
All the teachers were in their
respective positions in the schools
here except Coach Hall and he is
to report eiVrly next week.
Mrs. A. F. Fussell of Carolina

corps of teachers and predicted a

here.
While all teacher positions have

Funeral Held For
Accident Victim
Funeral services were held at
the home, 203 Cone Street, Wil

Little Miss Brenda Jean Rober
son, four, who died in an Eliza

evening at 8:20 o’clock of injuries
received when struck by an auto
mobile at Kill Devil Hill on the
Nags Head highway Thursday
morning at 8:30 o’clock. She suf
fered a broken neck, skull frac

first at Manteo she was removed
to the hospital a short time later.
Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam
my E. Roberson, formerly of this
county, and sister, Patsy, had
stopped beside the highway to
climb one of the sand hills. Re
turning to the highway the little
girl started to join her parents on
the other side and ran into a Vir

Farmers Cooperative Speaker
Sounds Danger Signals In An
Address Here Last Thursday
Mayor Hassell Makes Plea
For Farm Bureau Support
On the eve of the annual Martin
County Farm Bureau membership
drive, Mayor John L. Hassell yes
terday made a plea for the or
ganization’s support by business
and professional men as well as
farmers, landlords and others.
Renewing his membership for
another year at the time, Mayor
Hassell pointed out that the Flue
Cured Tobacco Stabilization Cor
poration, promoted principally by
the farm group, had already
meant much to the welfare of the
farmer and the economy of this
entire section. "It may mean that
Martin farmers will receive a mil
lion dollars more for the current
crop than they would have receiv
ed without it," he pointed out,
basing his statement on the early
activities on this and other mar
kets in the belt. That accomplish
ment alone will save the farmers
of this county enough money to
join the farm organization for
| years to come. One does not have
to join the stabilization corpora
tion to reap benefits; the organi
zation is having a stabilizing ef
fect on the market, meaning that
all are sharing from the program.
Martin County is being asked to
boost its Farm Bureau member
ship to 2.080 for the 1946-47 year,
and it is believed that tiie goal
will be reached and passed. Last
year a few more than 1.801) joined
the organization.
At a meeting in the county
courthouse Friday of this week at
8:00 o’clock, plans for the annual
J membership drive will be com
pleted. The drive is slated to get
under way in a big way next
Monday. At the meeting Friday
night, the tobacco stabilization
program will be explained in de
| tail. Any person interested in the
program and any one wishing to
help the membership canvass are
invited to attend the meeting.

Krvirws Growth of FCX
Al In The High
School Here
Addressing the annual meeting
of the Martin County Farmers
Cooperative Exchange in the high
school here last Thursday after
noon, M. Ci. Mann, general man
ager for the State, sounded sev
eral danger signals, reviewed
briefly the growth of the coopera
tive and appealed for a better bal
anced farm economy in this and
other counties.
His address, quite timely,
strong and forceful, was well re
ceived by approximately 800 pa
trons and friends of the organiza
tion. ft follows, in part:
Twt lve years ago the FCX was
not much more than a dream. It
is- true that a group of out state
agricultural leaders, with a num
ber of outstanding farmers, had
for months been laying the
foundation for a farmer coopera
tive purchasing and marketing
organization on a state-wide bas
is, but it was not until July 1,
1084, that tin1 FCX was really
launched. It is, therefore, hard to
believe we have today serving
farmers in both North and South
Carolina, a farmer owned and
farmer controlled organization
with a membership of 44,189, It
1 is like \\ ise hard to believe that
l farmers. through cooperation,
I have been able to build an organi
1 ration in these twelve short years
; which today is handling a volume
of supplies and aiding farmers in
the marketing of the crops they
produce, . aUied al more than

though the gross margin of prom
taki n at the time the farmers
purchased more than $75,000,000
worth of farm supplies has been
It s.- than 10 percent. They have
been able, because of economical
management to build an organ!*
»*C)MK. y y ^t"1
cess of $2,000,000.
When the Farmers Cooperative
Exchange was organized and the
first board of directors elected,
the first policy adopted was that,
of quality. We went to our State
Agricultural College and asked
the Dean of Agriculture if he
would permit his dairy experts,
poultry experts, and his agrono
mists to work out the formulas
by which all of our feeds and fer
tilizers should be manufactured,
in order that we might be assured
of giving to our farm people the
greatest return for every dollar
spent for supplies that it was pos
sible to give to them.
Since that day down to this, we
have not made a t;haflue.i
our formulas that we have not
first consulted the authorities at
our State Agricultural College,
both in feed and fertilizer. Wo
have likewise called on our State
Department ot Agriculture, along
witn the College, to assist us in
the purchasing of seed which the
farmers had to buy in order to
produce their crops.
The open-formula policy on
feeds, seeds and fertilizers has
meant the savings of millions of
dollars fot the farmers of the
Carolinas during these past 12
years.
The low margin which, this
year, averaged only 8.94 for the
state as a whole in all of the FCX
warehouses, has likewise saved
millions of dollars for the farm*
ers of the state. . . .
During these past twelve years
the FCX has handled a volume of
more than $75,000,000 and has had
to charge off less than $10,000 in
bad cheeks and in what we would
think of as bad accounts. . . .
I am not unmindful that with
the national farm income—as
well as our own state farm in*
come—at its peak, estimated this
year to be something like twenty
billion dollars, it is hard for us to
stop and realize that only six
years ago, or in 1939, it was only
seven billion, eight hundred thir
