Yvonne De Carlo
As Spy In Desert
Adventure Film
Glamorous Yvonne De Carlo (
uses her charm land no one can ?
deny she has il and knows how to [
u-e iti to beguile the Arabs as an;
undercover agent for the French ?
In the drama of intrigue and ad
venture "Fort Algiers," which
opens Thursday at the Strand
Theatre through United Artists re
lease^
Although the delectable Yvonne
is shown to full advantage in the
starring role, the picture has many
o'hcr elements of entertainment.!
Not the least of which is a spectac
ular battle in the desert between
the forces of the French Foreign
? Legion and hordes of fanatic Arabs
in revolt. These truly awe-inspiring
i sequences were filmed on location
in North Africa asainst a breath
taking panorama of mountains and
? desert.
"Fort Algiers" tells the engross
ing story of a spy, played by
Yvonne De Carlo, sent by the
French to discover the person and
s'ory behind wild Arab uprisings.
It is a tale nacked with excitement
and suspense and directed by Les
ley Selander to best bring out
those qualities of the sjory. Star
ring'opposite Miss D? Carlo, and
p'ving a sunerb performance as a
disillusioned officer, is a newcom

General Situation In Haywood
Whatever the cause, the situa
tion as it exists In the county to
day we all agree is a serious one.
This situation confronts?and has
confronted for the past two years,
both stockmen and farmers in gen
eral; and during the d>ast few
months- the problem of an inade
quate Water supply for industry
has also become acute. Officials at
Champion, our largest industry,
say that in consequence of this they
are, along with other known plants,
"confronted with a multiple prob
lem. one hard of satisfactory solu
tion."
At this writing, and for several
days past, no more water is being
taken from Lake Logan?it just is
not filling up.
The lake is there for anyone to
-ee; It is at least half dry. and
with a still greater proportion of
he bottom showing ? mud, rock
'nd gullied sand.
In The Upper Pigeon Valley
Mrs. Edgar Burnette, of the
-ecil community, reports that be
cause of the very low reservoirs
md springs many householders
nave had to place their own re
strictions on the use of water?
or instance, washing dishes only
mce a day. W. G. Burnette, . o'
lethel, says that several wells 01
prines have gone dry in his com
nunity. Some few homes have eith
r resorted to their neighbor's
veil or other sources of supply or
lave drilled new wells altogether
"I have lived S3 years." said
Uncle Wash, "ana I have neve
-een the streams and water supply
?s low as now."
Fines Creek
That part of Haywood County
onsisting of Fines Creek, Iifor
Uurf. lower Crabtree. the west hal'
>f Clyde township and all o'
Waynesville has perhaps beer
'tardest hit.
Charlie McCrary reports that Ir
vines Creek the farmers have trier'
'o keep their drying up pasture
?dreams open sufficiently to fur
tish water for cattle, but in man'
nstances have had to resort tt
digging water holes. The streams
McCrary says, are the lowest they
have ever been in his knowledge.
Iron Duff
Here it is reported that some
three or four families have alread>
resorted to carrying water, either
for drinking purposes or for tijeir
stock. The Downs branch that once
was sufficient to power a small |
grist mill is now nearly dry.
Jonathan Creak-am!'Ci ibtree
Both streams, it is reported bv
former citizens, like Hub Caldwell
?T. R Boyd and J L. Walker, are
the lowest they have ever seen
them. One can step across Jona
than Creek on the rocks in manv
nlaces. and some say that Crab
?ree Creek is not as big as Big
Branch used to be.
Waynesville
Although with a reservoir slight
'y lowering all the time lately, the
own of Waynesville is not faced
s'ith any immediate danger. Wan
?ger G. C. Ferguson states. But
lad not our water supply been
onserved and better facilities in
tailed we would have been in a
>ad situation during the last few
tontbs. Richland Creek carries
ess water today than has ever been
nown. because so many small
ontrlbuting streams have almost
'ried uo. or completely so. Several
amilies in different sections of
Vaynesville township have had to
'rill deeoer wells or tap more dis
ant springs for their water supply. |

3ost-Share Aid

Haywood's soil conservation pro

eeding pasture or hay.
Seed will be furnished with fer
ilizer. according to soil tests, while

ure or hay. Mr. Ferguson said.
The "Big Spring" Goes Dry
The soring on the Elbert Arrine
on old place above Saunook. of-!
'en called "The Big Spring." went
1ry a few days ago. Some folks
??ay it -wa'? onee? perhaps the big-'
'est soring in the county. Now j
Tim Miller. the owner, has been
compelled to pipe his water from .
another stream.
Pigeon River
Now. what is true of the lateral
or tributary streams of Pigeon Riv
er in case of drought would, of
"ourse. be true as regards the
river itself. Those of you who have
not seen "Of Pigeon" lately, just
| look at the picture here, taken at
Clvde?for a fair illustration.
Two of our schools have been af
fected: A new well was out down
at Big Creek and a better water

The fact that these costs hava

, consumer has not benefited more
! from lower market prices on beef.
Dr. Brown added.
The speaker pointed out that al
j thnuah farmers' net income reach
ed its lowest point this year since
1945 the decline actually started
in 1947. after reaching its peak.
Net income in 1947 was 17 bil
lion. in contrast to 121s billion in
1953. he said.
Dr. Brown also predicted:
1. Milk prices for farmers will
decline slightly.
2. Esg prices for farmers will
drop slightly, but will remain gen
erally steady and favorable.
3. 'The sheep market will be
very good. \
4. General employment, now at
an all-time high, will remain at the
?'?me relative level.
5. There will be ample sup
