CL, un der act of March 8rd, 1878L WE MUST BUY TO SELL The European war presents an op portunity to the nations of this hemisphere to develop commercial ties and there are sign* that consid erable attention is being paid to the possibilities. Just the same, never forget that other nations in this hemisphere want to sell a lot of things that the United States has to sell. Naturally, the market that one wants is desired by the others. This makes it difficult to arrange matters so that all nations can profit from developing commer cial ties with other American nations. The United States, for example, would like to sell manufactured goods to South and Central America. In return, they would like to sell some thing to us. The question is what are we willing to buy. Inasmuch as it is necessary for other nations to sell their goods some where before being able to buy any where, and because European mar kets are affected by the war, it is obvious that the United States must do some buying if it expects to do much selling. OUR 'BALONEY* DOLLAR % It is interesting to read that the dollar remains the strongest currency in the world despite the increase of the Federal indebtedness and our con tinuing governmental deficits. Finance, especially international fi nance, is a subject upon which ignor ance is thick and profound. We re member that when the United States devalued the dollar there were rash predictions about dire results and there was much derision heaped upon the "baloney" dollar. Since that occasion, however, gold has poured into the United States. Thre is enough yellow metal in this country to redeem all existing curren cy with more than enough left over to repeat the transaction. The Ameri can dollar may not be a perfect coin but so long as it is the strongest currency in the world that ought to be good enough. WHAT ABOUT WAR DEBTS? The latest tabulation shows that European nations owe the United States something like $14,500,000, 000. This is a lot of money. It is more than the gold supply of the nations of the world, excepting only the United States. It is probably about four times as much as the gold held in the debtor nations. ; There has been a great misunder standing in the United States in re ?. 7~ 4. ^ ? . .. v gards to these debts.

C. Blair, agronomist of the State College Extension Ser vice, although some of them are bet ter adopted to certain soil types and conditions than others. "We are ex tremely fortunate in this respect,"! Blair stated, "but we are not taking full advantage of our opportunities." Summer legumes include soybeans, cowpeas, annual lespedeza, peanuts, velvet beans, and kudzu. Perennial 1 legumes are alfalfa, red clover, sweet < clover, alsike clover, and lespedeza ] sericea. Winter .legumes include '< crimson clover, vetch, Austrian winter < peas, and bur clover. Small grains are oats, barley, wheat, and rye. Per- < ennial grasses are timothy, 'orchard 1 grass, redtop and tall oat grass. An- i nual grasses include sorghums, fox- ! ail millet, Japanese millet, Johnson grass, sudan grass and crabgrass. Seven of these?soybeans, velvet beans, annual lespedeza, barley, sweet clover, Austrian winter peas, and les- ; pedeza sericea,?have been introduced < into the State during the present < century, Blair said. j "We are making progress, but not , enough," he declared. "We are not growing enough forage for the num ber of livestock we now have, and we should be growing enough, not only j for these livestock, but for a great , many more." The Extension specialist reported ] that the acreage of hay in North Carolina has risen from 618,000 in 1929 to 1,000,000 in 1989, an increase j of about 60 percent lespedeza was * 111 THEATRE I mm parmvill^ * & m& i ?.?? ?i ?
