' 7 Great Beyond , ?; : v-t .' Dear General: f ;:- How's ' everything ' down there? I've been thinking about you quite a bit lately. You got a bum rap, j General, based on today's stand ards. Generals today get .busted for. teaching Americanism. General, you were ahead of your time. Today you would be a junior league traitor. You merely tried to "Sen tWscbuotir outttr ourfirends and kinfolks, to our mother coun try which merely wanted to keep on mothering us,' Your successors are selling us out to Mother Russia, and they're" not even our', own folks. '; '','.'.,'. -. The other night, General, I was In a debate on .TV. with, among others, the head of one of our lar gest - theological : seminaries. - You may not have been able to get this TV program down there, because It wasn't on Network. , I understand you do have Netwoork TV and are forced to look at it continuously, even at Ed Sullivan. After hearing this preacher-teacher advocate a non-profit. One-Worlds brotherhood, 1 asked him how he differed from a Socialist. replTedT that he- did n't differ he believed In Socia lism. 1 stated that Socialism was Communism- - without f. the firing souad the halfway; hous to Com- H. mnnism.'Thi -man; who isl'ttducat- Imf thousands of Protestant minis--"". tors argued that Communism is the halfway house to Socialism; that we should disarm completely; that surrender is preferabe to war; that the Communists have a lot to corn 's mend (hem; that they are progres- sing nicely; that we should meet . them halfway in an international ' . Socialist Brotherhood. He said he ; waa in Russia seven years ago and -: noted great Improvements. I was . m Russia two years agd and noted : the inscription I want for my, tomb ' stone: "I'd mather be here than in Russia? If I owned Russia and Hell, rd rent out Russia and live In Hell. Please express my apolo gies for borrowing that thought to General Sherman when you ' see him. There are not many Communists in America. We may not have any more than they had in Cuba, Lat via, Hungary, Poland, and , other countries when they were enslaved. What we. really need, to do is to trade some of our government, church 1 and business leaders who follow the Communist line for some real Communists. Known" Commu nists are nothing like, as dangerous as are non-Communist dupes in in fluential places. Of course, what counts is pot how many Commu nists there are in government, but where they are. Our aim is to pacify the world Th4lussiaa-ainvisto own it.. We will either wake up soon or we will die in our sleep. We could be van quished by nuclear . bombs. But we're more apt to be taken over by telephone. The troops who take us over won't even be in uniform at first-unless they're United Nations troops. ' ' Some Americans think that if we help Russia and all other backward nations lift themselves up to our level, she'll abandon her 40 year ef fort to destroy us. Others whom I could name except for lack of time J and money to fight a lawsuit, Trim would sell ' bombs to Khrushchev and Mao if they could make a pro fit on them. The 'empty bellies cause Communism' theme is a fraud; As Robert Welch says, "There are more Communists with Harvard accents than there are In overall," : -'":; . : V. rit-ta bnposaibje to' know tfie truth and et -heW 'responsible Yet Adlai Stevenson; according to newspaper reports, recently said that raising the standard of back ward -countries by - sending them American dollars is . more impor tant to the U. S. than even our own defense. . s.w-v ' The enemy is waging war upon us. Unless we plan surrender, we are at war, Unless we plan trea son, we plan victory. The Commu nist policy has never changed since 1917: To bring about through any means possible the universal Revo lution to establish the- universal State. Many non-Communist Ame ricans are promoting the same. "Containment" failed, as it was bound to. Coexistence will fail al so, because it is an immoral," im possible, gutless fraud. As Russian General Zhukov said, coexistence is as senseless as fried snowballs. Yet We've been served fried snow balls daily by our leaders for 20 years.- - Possibly for the remarkable . In sight and foresight which made him proclaim in a 1950 speech that the Chinese Revolution was "not Russian in essence" and . "did not aim at dictatorship." Dean Rusk was rewarded with the job of Sec retary of State. Rusk declared that Mao Tse Tung was China's George Washington. He compared favor ably the Chinese Revolution with the American revolt against the British. ' High-placed officials in our State Department, and Foreign Service bureaucrats, have defeated pur friends like the great . Yugoslav Mikhailovitch and brought enemies like Tito in to murder him; helped destroy Batista, one of our few Car ribean friends, so that longtime Communist Fidel Castro could est ablish a New Communist Frontier 90 miles off our shores. Kooen Welch and other patriots warned that Castro had been a Communist all his adult life and was taking orders from the Kremlin but left wing press, radio and TV com mentators .called Castro the "Geor ge Washington of Cuba." The list of "accidents' is long. Those accidents were planned that way. General. Many of our leaders who planned it that way . are still in office As you well know, Gener al, men, not conditions, determine our fate. Accidents don't happen. They aca caused. Stupidity is not consistent. Accidents are not trea son, and treawm hrfleten accident. The dictionary defines treason as "adhering to the enemy, giving aid and comfort to the enemy," But we are revolutionizing our dic tionary, Bible, Constitution morals, schools, and meaning of treason. Soon traitor may mean "one who criticises a government official who gives aid and comfort to the enemy." Treason is a horrid word, like spit. And Castro spits on us because : of treason within our own ranks. If freedom dies "stateside." it dies worldwide, probably for cen turies. I'd rather be hung for a traitor opposing tyranny than be the hero of a dictatorship. That be ing the case, I may see you soon.

Tent Revival . Rev. J. C. Wallace announces a Tent Revival in the Pasture 'Branch Community, located between Ken ansvllle and Chinquapin on high way 50. The revival will be coduct ed from July 4-12 at 8:00 P.

Wilson, father-in-law to Rev. Wallace, will be speaking Interchangeably with Rev Wallace .The tent meeting will be conducted on an Interdenomina tional basis. Rev. ' Wallace urges his many friends of this area to at tend this revival for spiritual help and renewed fellowship. The week of June 12-17 was an exciting one for FFA boys at White Lake FFA Camp. Individuals from B. F. Grady school community who attended were Larry Davis. Zen nie Quinn, Allen Langston, Jim mie Turner, Larry Welch, Crais; Potter Billy Patterson, John Rouse, and Phillip Grady, all of which are FFA members. Nelly Waters, who was el ected as FFA Chapter Sweetheart during last school year surprised all of the boys by attend ing the entire week of camp. Mr. and. Mrs. N. L. Ward, FFA Advi sor and wife were among those at tending and responsible for helping Nelly surprise-the boys. A weekjflt AVhite Lake FFA Camp is one of the outstanding events ot the year for many of the rural farm youth. Some boys attend each sum mer until graduation from high school. Others would attend if they were not needed to help work on farms so much. Each boy attending has to pay a fee of $12. for which he gets a place to sleep and three delicious meals per day for the en tire week. The camp is valued at $100,000, and is maintained and op erated by the FFA organization. Each FFA Advisor ( Vo - Ag tea her is I required to sleep in the same cabin with his boys and is responsible for their conduct at all times during the stay at camp. There is a supervisory statf of two high school coaches and one prin cipal who coordinates the camp ac tivities which are well planned and supervised. Each morning the boys attend flag raising ceremonies after which a short devotional and physical training exercise are conducted. Each chapter is assigned a short detail each day such as pick up paper or rake sand around water front which is to be carried out ! after breakfast. Each chapter is ; also responsible for setting up tab les in the dining hall and returning ' thanks for the food one time dui- j After the Duplin Times published and article saying that Theodore Boykins would be the first man put to death, if the court verdict holds up in its appeal before the N. C. Supreme Court, since July, 1939, S. A. Boone, at the State Prison farm near Kenansville, telephoned the Duplin Times and advised there had bee na death since 1939. He also su"Rested that William Lee was not put to death as the re cords showed and indicated in the Clerk of Superior Court's office. So this week another cheek of the records has been made. The search of records has been more thorough and complete. Some unusuaf results were turned up. In the case of William Lee, a Ne gro man found guilty of first de gree murder in the death of Ollin Maynard, a Negro, at his home be tween Magnolia and Rose Hill, the Supreme Court ordered a new trial. Therefore, he was not electrocuted. In the retrial, Lee was permitted to plead "guilty to accessory before the fact of murder. "However, no record could be found anywhere in the Court House or in the docu ments on the Lee trial where any one else was ever indicted or invol- Wallace . Artis was found guilty of murder in the first degree in October, 1946. He killed Houston on May 31, 1946. Artis was put to death' in Raleigh on Friday, June 27, 1947. This case was remembered by Superior Court Clerk R. V. Wells while information was being search ed on the James "Pete" West trial. Clerk Wells contacted Joe Wallace, who renvjnbered the case, and the records were located to verify Ar tis' death. Artis' wife was inplicated in the murder of Houston but the indigt ment against her was not prosed. The case of James "Pete" West a 20-year-old Negro, was something of a sensation. West killed Walter J Johnson, 64, white, at his country store between Wallace and Harrell's Store on Jan uary 22, 1948. Evidence introduced at the trial showed an argument between Johnson and West started over a check West had give to Johnson which was a bad check.' The trial transcript showed that West hit Johnson over the head with blade of an ax. After hitting him over the head, West removed between $145 and $146 from his poc ket and left the area. He was later picked up in New York City and brought back to Duplin County to stand trial. Young West had a previous re cord of brushes with the law., be ginning when he was around - 17 years old. He was sentenced to death on April 12, 1948 and died in the State's gas chamber on Friday, Nov emDer 19, 1948. The Duplin Times wishes to ex press appreciation to Clerk of Court R. V.

Egg Production And Growth Dependent Upon High Quality Eggs Farmers And Gardeners Experts Should Be Consulted About All Disease When There Is Doubt, Worry Can you tell when your plants get sick? "Most plants get sick at some time during their lives," says Dr. W. C. White, Extension agronomy specialist at North Carolina State College. 'But if you can read the symptoms, you may be able to 'doctor' them effectively.' The most widespread illness of plants, says White, is nutritional disorder. This means - In a nutshell that they're not getting the right kind or amount of food. "Farmers feed their plants fer tilizer and lime; but often, they don't give them what they need," White says. Growning plants ' often display symptoms that tell what's wrong with their diets. Specific sometimes are hard to identify; but somn point to definite troubles", sa; White. When there isn't enough nitrogen, the plant leaves turn yellow. A V shaped area yellows in the midrib of corn leaf. Potassium deficiency on alfala produced yellowish spots on the leaves. On corn, the leaf margin turns brown. ', . . Pink Hill P. 0. Goes 2nd Class Information from Pink Hill Post master George M. Turner, is that the Office will go from third to se cond class, effective July 1, 1961. A change in. hours is also an nounced. The office will be open j continuously from 8:30 A. M. to; 5:00 P. M. with no break between 12:00 noon and 1.00 P. M.' as has been the case. - "V ' ! 1 j Patrons welcome the change.' , i "There are many causes for plant illness.' says White "weather it's corn, tobacco, azaleas, grass or roses," One major cause is the nematode, which destroys plant roots. The re suit is a stunted plant that may die Another is the fungus, a patholo-gi-cal disease which damages plant tissue and roots. 'Drought, insects, too much rain and a wide variety or other things make plants sicken and, frequently die'" says White. 'But in many cases the illness can be prevented or cured." Each year, Tar Heels spend mil lions of dollars to prevent or cor rect plant diseases. "They could save a lot of money and grow bet ter plants if they would let people who know plans well diagnose their troubles,' says White. Pink Hill To Have Modern Hog Mkf. Construction is underway for a modern hog market for Pink Hill, according to T. J. Turner, presi dent of the Pink Hill Development Corporation.1 Mr. Turner announces that the Corporation has sold ap proximately one and one-half acres of land adjacent to the Town limits on the Beulaville Highway, to the Lundy Meat Packing Company of Clinton for the construction of a modern market which will be con venient to farmers in the area. By William Jasper North Carolina popultrymen arc now producing 25 per cent more eggs than are being used in the state. Approximately one and a half million cases of Tar Heel egns per year are being sold to markets in other states. These out-of-town sales have returned to the egg in dustry of this state more than 17 million dollars in addition to the Richard Matthews Charged For Pistol After Shooting Richard "Redcap" Matthews, 50 Jegro charged with carrying a con--eaed weapon after shooting a Ne gro woman, is out of jail on bond.

Cotton support rates in North Car olina for 19tl will be 34.05 cents per pound in the Western part of the State and 33. 7 cents per pound in the Eastern part of the State for the base quality, middling 1-inch cotton. The lower. Eastern rate ap plies to all counties east of Person. Durham, Chatham, Lee, Moore, and Richmond. The Western rate applies to the counties named and all counties west of the line form ed by these counties. The choice A and choice B pro gram which has been in effect for the past years will not be in effect this year. Price support in North Carolina this year will be accom plished thru loans on farm and warehouse stored cotton only. These will be no purchase program this year.
