D. L. Smith reported at Kinston
that his automobile "collided head-on"
with a swarm of bees.
He said the impact was such that
he thought the windshield would be
shattered and that dead and injured
insects nearly covered the car and
road. It was a large swarm, num
bering thousands.
Members of the family hastily put
up the car windows, bailing angry
survivors of the swarm.
Smith said the swarm was "wrecks

JAPAN IS FEELING STRAIN
The struggle in the far East has
entered a new phase in which eco
nomic power is more important than
military. The military effort was
relatively easy for Japan, she was
fighting her strongest ground. She
is now fighting where she is weakest,
and ia beginning to show strain.
NETHERLANDS SET IP PRO
GRAM FOR JEWS
The Netherlands Government is to
establish a central camp for 2,500
Jewish refugees at a cost of 1,000,000
florins about ($555,000). The camp is
intended to be semi-permanent, that
is to have a duration of about 15
years. Expenses for the mainten
ance of the refugees are, as hitherto,
to be paid out of private charity.
PLOWING UNDER GRAPEFRUIT
Grapefruit that sells "three for a
quarter" as a luxury in markets
back east is being plowed under by
the carload in Salt River and the
Yuma Mesa citrus groves in Arizona.
Something like 600 carloads will be
disked into the soil in compliance with
the Federal Surplus Commodities
Corporation's grapefruit buying pro
gram. The fertilizer value of the
fruit is very small but inspectors
insist that the fruit be put in such
condition that cannot possibly be
offered for sale, and sharp disk
blades provide the easiest way put.

Fines Creek Boys

public speaking contests for students

ning FieldV. Farm, Heiidersonville,

will be represented in the livestock
judging by Boyd Messer, Andy
Sparks, and Joe Haynes. The classes
of animals to be judged will be draft
horses, beef heifers, Guernsey cows,

WHAT PRICE RELIEF?
Relief . costs too much, critics
charge, especially to administer. Yet
there is a singular lack of dependable
information on how much it costs or
should cost. Any serious effort to es
tablish a basis for ascertaining cost
merits attention.
A resolution is now before the New
York State Legislature to create a
joint legislative committee to study
the question. Its sponsors assert
that relief costs in the state are ex
cessive. They contend that the ad
ministration of home relief costs
about 13 per cent of the total amount
of relief granted. The usual pro
cedure is to lump together all ex
penses of a public welfare depart
ment, other than the amount of relief
granted, and to consider the total
us administrative cost. But should
all such items be so considered? In
business not all personnel and oper
ating charges are classified as ad
ministrative expenses. Administra
tive expense is ordinarily understood
to include such overhead items as
general supervision, personnel man
agement, purchasing, and accounting.
Applying this division of costs to
its expenditures in a sample month,
the New York City Department of
Welfare found the administrative pay
roll to be 1.53 per cent of the toUL
The operating pay roll for the same
period, which included the direct ser
vices to relief appliances, represented
10.95 per cent of total expenditures.
Welfare officials have many other
functions besides distributing relief
funds. One is to determine whether
persons are eligible for relief. Al
most 50 per cent of all applications
for home relief in New York State
are rejected. If administrative and
operating costs are drastically cur
tailed through reduction of staff, tha
cost of increased relief because of
less frequent investigation may be
greater than the administrative
savings. Christian Science Monitor.
