FINAL APPEAL To Washington County Voters: ★ This is my final appeal to all the voters of Washington County, regardless of party, to give me a chance to see what I can do by voting for me to represent the county at the next session of the Legislature. My opponent persists in telling everybody that I will not be able to accomplish anything, even if I am elected, on account of the small Republican membership in the House of Representativs. /4s to that statment, at least I will be TRYING to do the best I can for this coun ty, and I am sure I can accomplish more than has been done in the past 10 years. I invite voters to check the record of my op ponent for the 22 years he has lived in Washington County and see if his name has EVER been connected with any movement for the betterment of the county. On the other hand, my record is an open book, and it will prove that I have always freely worked as hard as I could for the benefit of the county. I am definitely in favor of at least a 20 per cent increase in the salaries of school teachers and em ployees of the State Highway Commission. The future of our schools and roads depends on se curing efficient teachers and highway employees, and the present rates of pay offered by the state are not sufficient to command either, resulting in continually lowering of standards. I will sincerely appreciate your support; and I give you my pledge that, disregarding partisan politics, I will do the very best possible for the interests of Washington County and its people if elected. Sincerely yours, J. Roy Nanning Republican Candidate for Representative ★ General Election Tuesday, Nov. 7th Dipiheria 'Victims Total 386 In State Raleigh.—The reporting of 1081 cases of diptheria in North Carolina i so far this month, bringing the total i for the year, to 386 cases, brought! from Dv. Carl V. Reynolds. State Health Officer, sharp criticism for: those parents and guardians respon sible for this, by not having had their children immunized, as required by i law. "Infantile paralysis, on which a quarter of a million dollars has been spent in North Carolina during the past four and a half months, now is on the wane." Dr. Reynolds said "And yet," he said, "diphtheria con tinues. The tragedy of it is that we know all about diptheria—how to pre vent it, and how to cure it. On the other hand, we know neither the car rier of nor an established cure for poliomyelitis, or infantile paralysis. Yet, an outbreak of this disease throws the entire state into panic. It is well to be cautious and careful and use every means to protect against a disease of an unknow'n character, but it is a different thing to become pan icky to the extent of developing an inordinate fear, or phobia. “These same people who get ex cited about polio permit their child ren to go on contracting and dying of diptheria. and suffering from its criDDlinsr effects. “There may be excuses but no valid reasons for this state of af fairs. Here is one excuse that I recall. Called to see a diptheria pa ient on one occasion, X asked the mother why the child had not been immunized. 'I just hated to see the little thing stuck,’ she replied. It would be much better to ‘stick the little thing' than to criple or kill it with diptheria. The same goes for you, if you are in her class.’’ -$ Try To Sabotage Control Program Raleigh.—Tobacco farmers were re cently warned by Kerr Scott, Com missioner of Agriculture, that strong efforts are being made to sabotage the government control progam in the production of flue-cured tobacco. “I have not been convinced there is any real shortage in tobacco stocks. If there is, it is only of a temporary nature," said Scott. Pointing out that the production of flue-cured tobacco this year under the control program will run greater than that of any other season except the non-control year of 1939, Scott declared this record might have been equalled in 1944 under normal cir cumstances. He said that farmers have been eager to meet the steped-up produc tion goals for oil, feed, and fiber crops and have not been able to de vote as much attention to tobacco as they did before the wjar. Scott asserted that the absence of government control in 1939 led to the sale of flue-cured tobacco at an aver age price of $14.90 per hundred pounds. He added that freedom in the planting of tobacco in 1939 led to a surplus which carried over into 1940 and resulted in a price of only $16.40 per hundred pounds. $57; 1239 quarts canned; 21 garments made; and bonds bought, $50. Piney Grove Club Mi's. A. M. Chesson was hostess to the club due to the illness of Mrs. Asia Barbour. Four members of the club have not missed a meeting this year: Mes dames A. M. Chesson, Harold Pat rick, Ralph Collins and Ethel Tar kenton. Reports given were: eggs sold, $25; chickens, $7.60; 2 porches painted; 1 floor painted and 5 garments made. The public is invited to attend the annual meeting of the Home Dem onstration clubs Wednesday, Novem ber 15. at 3 p.m. in the Court House. An exhibit of some of the hand work by the club women will be shown in the Agriculture building on the same day.

Most Point Values Not To Be Changed Raleigh.—Present Point values on all meats and dairy products, includ ing butter, remain unchanged for November, the Raleigh District Of fice of Price Administration announc ed. Present point values on most pro cesed foods also remain unchanged. OPA said. Points required for pur chases of canned applesauce, how ever. have been reduced: and slight changes in point value requirements for packaged spaghetti and macaroni dinners have been made. Retailers will continue to display present point value charts with the authorized changes written in. OPA said. Premium Grade Gas Octane Number Set The Office of Price Administration has moved to protect buyers from at tempts to sell low grade gasoline at higher ceilings established for prem ium grades by enacting a requirement that premium grades of gasoline must meet a minimum octane number of 75 A.S.T.M. In taking the action OPA said most gasoline dealers were already comply ing but that some sellers were offer ing as premium grade, and at prem ium grade prices, gasoline which has not met the prevailing standard. More Tobacco For Domestic Producers Raleigh.—Tire War Pood Adminis- j tration issued an Amendment last i week, which will permit Tobacco Manufacturers in the United States to purchase 666.000.000 pounds of I flue-cured tobacco from the present ! crop according to J. A. V/infield. mar ket newsman with the State Depart ment of Agriculture This represents an increase of 2'i per cent over last year's total allot ment. This is more tobacco than tobacco manufacturers have ever be fore purchased from any previous flue-cured crop, and will more than replace the aged stock removed from their inventory, although the Con sumption of tobacco products, par ticularly cigaretts was at an all time high level. Inventory withdrawal during the twelve-month period just passed amounted to 650,000.000 lbs. Hapazard spending on food and :Iothing is an insult to the men in thaki and blue.
