The strength in prices was attributed to a number of factors among which were (1) trade reports of the possibility of favorable action on the Pace bill to include labor costs In calcula tion of parity prices; (2) the short crop with a probability of a con siderable proportion of low . grades; (3) the improvement in export prospects; and (4) some increase in domestic mill activity during September TOBACCO Prices for most grades of tobac co offered on North Carolina mar kets during the week continued steady and in good demand. Gross sales on Eastern Belt markets for the season through October 25 totaled 353,458,201 pounds for an average of $43.67, while total sales on North Carolina and Vir ginia middle belt markets amoun ted to 100,266,375 for a $42.39 average. Gross sales for the sea son on old belt markets totaled 141,295,477 pounds for an average of $42,18 per hundred. Most of the leaf grades ranged from $45 to $49 Friday on the Eastern Markets; $46 to $50 on Middle Belt Markets, and $40 to $48 on Old Belt Markets.

Sgt, Brock saw nearly five years of service. Visit In FayettevlUe Mrs. Paul Byrd and children, Douglas and Linda, visited her mother, Mrs. Brock, in Faystte ville over the week end. Gifts of God Draw on your imagination for a moment and consider with me an altogether improbable circum stance. Suppose a well-groomed gentleman with an easy flow of lan guage should mount an improvised platform in the public square of an agricultural county-seat town next Saturday afternoon, play a phono graph record through a loud speak er to get an audience, and than should say: "Ladies and Gentlemen there is just so much water in the antira universe; so much and no mora. Any time you drink more of It than you need to quench your thirst, you ara greedy because some unfortunate person somewhere on earth wants water. He is thirsty. His throat Is dry and his lips .e parching. And it is all for want of the water which you so wantonly swallow." It Is Not True Such a speaker would soon lose his audience. People would walk away and leave him. Some of them might think about having his head examined because they know his ideas are out of joint. There is no connection whatever between one man's abundance of water and some far-away stranger's thirst. The need of the sufferer, even if he were a victim of cruelty, is apart from tha owner of a good well. But the speaker might hold his audience if he said something like this: "Ladies and Gentlemen there is just so much wealth in the world; so much and no mora. Anybody with more than he needs for food, clothes and shelter is greedy be cause there ara many people in China and India who never had a square meal in their lives. They are poor because a few people gat very rich." Another Fallacy This speech is no nearer true than the one about the water. Both have some facts in them but they are not related facts. I am not trying to say that wealth is free and cheap like water, but I am saying this: My neighbor's fine home and big car have cost me nothing. He has more than I have because he (or his fa ther maybe) has more wealth-creating ability than I have. There it such a thing as oppression of the poor. There it such a thing as exploiting labor. It is a crime which Jesus decried openly. It is also a short-sighted vice because it leads toward poverty and not toward wealth. "Good money in circula tion" is a manifestation of prosper ity and it occurs only In lands where workers are well paid and thus per mitted to maintain good homes and live in comfort. America's Blessing Workers are paid well in Amer ica, twice as well as in England and six times as well as in Russia, and America is a rich country. Fami lies live on $1 a month per person in China China is a poor country. Is China poor because America if rich? No! Without the United States as a customer, and supplier, the Orient would be poorer still. The difference is that we have Lib erty, and they have oppression. ; We Americans receive countless bene .Its from God's hand that peo ple in other countries never heard ebout Is God partial to America?. Certainly not! Our benefits coma through a channel that the rulers of other countries have blindly and selfishly closed by exploiting labor. Our God-fearing ancestors opened it for us long 'ago. The channel Is personal freedom, protected by rep resentative, constitutional govern ment. . .
