Reported State
: Pays Interest
The following telegram has just
been received from Lyles Harris, ed
itor of the Franklin Press, who is
spending this week at Raleigh at'
tending th state fair and evidently
getting in touch with things in gen
eral;. , , . . - '''..' "
"Stikeleather says State paying in
terest on loan deduction from prin
cipal. Getting federal aid to hardr
surface - twenty-eight east through
Jackson county. Stikeleather very en
thusiastic over' accomplishment." ' '
" This would seem to indicate that
the tax payers of Macon county will
be relieved of about $18,000 in taxes
each year. Evidently the telegram
means that the state will pay interest
on the 325,000 loaned by the county
to the state for road purposes. The
sense of the telegram also indicates
that the amount of interest thus
paid by the State will be deducted
from the loan when the $325,000 is
repaid to the county. The fact that
federal aid has been secured to aid
in hardsurfacing highway No. 28 east
through Jackson county probably
means that work on this road will
start not later than next spring and
perhaps this fall. At least that is the
interpretation at Franklin on the tel
egram. In a conversation with Mr. J.
C. Walker some months ago he in
formed the editor of the Press that
it was generally agreed that concrete
iuld be used as material for hard-
surfacing No. 28. However, this has
not as yet been definitely determined.

TOBACCO GROWERS SEEK
BETTER PRICES
Economic ruin and practical starva
tion face farmers of North Carolina
unless fair returns for the tobacco
crop can be obtained through closer
cooperation between producers and
buyers, it was declared by representa
tives of the industry in eastern North
Carolina at a conference called by
Senator Simmons of North Carolina.
1 Following the general conference in
the morning a small committee rep
resentee of tobacco growers, under
the chairmanship of Governor Gardner
was appointed to confer with repre
sentatives of Liggett-Myers, the
American Tobacco company, the Rey
nolds Tobacco company, and other
tobacco manufacturers, in order to
try to reach a solution of the prob
lem confronting .eastern North Caro
lina tobacco growers.
AIR MAIL FATALITIES
FOUND TO BE LOWER
The mortality rate of airplane pilots
during the first six months of 1929
in contract mail operations was one
to every 1,063,293 miles flown, ac
cording to figures made available by
the Aeronautics Branch of the De
partment of Commerce. This was a
decrease of 50 per cent under the
rate for the first half of 1928, a
comparison' of figures showed.
The number of miles flown by con
tract mail operations in the first half
of 1929 (6,379,776) nearly equals the
mileage for the entire year of 1928
when ' 7,846,296 miles were flown, and
seven pilots and nine passengers were
killed, the Department stated. , .

Wood Shortage in
1950 Forecast
Forest areas of the United States
are being cut or burned much faster
than they are grown, and if a wood
shortage in 1950 is to be avoided, in
creased protection and reforestation
must be supplied immediately, R. Y.
Stuart, Chief Forester of the Forest
Service, stated.
Mr. Stuart said that lands once
producing timber can do so again if
productivity is kept in the . soil and
