Sir Claude Audiinle^ new commander in-diief of British forces in the mid dle -east, said today United States onanpower was needed if the war is to be won properly — “on Ger many’s own sod.” “And it must be won properly, not half-won,” he told correspondents. The new commander, who ex changed posts with Gen. Sir Archi bald P. Wavell last week, was former commander-in-chief in India. ‘Tve always thought the war must be won in Europe, in Germany, on Germany’s own soil,’’ he replied to 'queries. “They must be beaten in ttje wiy Napoleon was beaten. Therefore, I see as much need for American man power in this war as in the last, hi 12, 14 or 24 months this need will certainly arise. How we are to get into the Germans’ country is an other matter but ways and means will present themsdves.” WOOL Much of the 1941 wool clip has been marketed and is now moving from producing center, with prices received by farmers this spring about 30 percent higher than a year ago.

C Tebaeeo Stieks For Sale nione 5246 Rolaod Coviagton 3||13||41 NEW YORK DIARY — Monday. The first real heat wave of the suih- mer and a humdinger. When the temperature hits the nineties in New York there’s no escape from it. The heat presses into every nook and comer like invisible poison gas. As you walk the street, the oppressive heat wraps itself around your face like a scarf that you can’t t^w off. In the apartment houses, the doors opening on the corridors stand open to entice any vagrant breeze but' die main result is to givp apart- ment-dwefiiers " those rare, once-a- year glimpiSe'-iiihr their neighbors’ apartments. The subways are rumb ling; roaring ovens. The only escape is an air-cooled niovie’ or restaurant. And then whm you eome out, the heat strikes harder than ever, smoth ering your pores and sapping your energy. Tuesday. Another day of swelter ing. Some offices let their employees out at* noon. City health officials advise taking salt tablets to avoid heat prostration. In the evening talking to two boys who spent 'time in Germany during the rise of Hitler. One sheepishly admitted that he was almost a convert to Nazism during that time. He told how he attended a huge mass-meeting at Munich where a crowd of ten thousand Ger mans waited from late afternoon un til nine in the evening to hear Hitler speak. He told of the wonderful bands and the singing, of the absolute order of the crowd, how at last Hitler walked—alone—lown a narrow aisle through the great crowd and how he himself — an American — was drawn irresistibly to his feet - shout ing and giving the Nazi salute. “I was young” he said “and so was the Nazi movement. Who could foresee what it was to become?” Wednesday. The heat is abating somewhat. A yankee friend in for supper—and a kind of . southern sup per at that with black-eyed peas and golden batter bread. Long argu ment when our yankee said that black-eyed peas were nothing but little beans. Finally, with a guilty feeling, turned to the dicitionary which easily confused the issue with a lot of words like “fabaceous” and “family faba faba.” Finally found a definition which said that you call any thing a pea if it is “small like a pea”. This discussion led to the dis covery that the coffee shop in the Commodore Hotel across the street from our offices is run by two girls from Virginia and features, among other things black-eyed seeds of the litUe work on the tiny lawn that surrounds his suburban home. About the only solution is to send the boy to a summer camp which most subur ban families do if tiiey can a^ord it. Friday. Fourth of July holiday and a long weekritd. The weather burau has already reeciyed over 88,000 rnil« inquring about the holiday weather. “.Occasional showers”. Well, they’re not bomb showers, an3rway. SIraiiU ShMiicr ■I family faba faba( Resolved to m vestigate. Thursday. Talking to a friend who lives in the suburbs and thought he had an interesting sidelight or two on living in the small communi ties aroimd New York. He comes from a small town in New York, where as a growing boy he worked in the grocery store on Satur^y, delivered papers, or worked on near by farms. Now with growing boys of his own, he is worried because it is hard for them to learn to work the suburban communities. The stores are mostly chains and there are no odd job for youngsters. The papers are carried by yoimg boys or men who make their living at it. He knows none of the farmers. All the work his boys can do is a Living with the fastest moving, most progressive generation that has ever existed has brought us tremen- dou disadvantages. In this era of mass production, it is easy for us to also submit to mass thinking. The greatest defeat of this age is that while men are enjoying alF the benefits of a great civilization we are too busy to take time for serious thoughts on tfie greatest issue of life. After all the intellectual strides, scientific discoveries, world conqu ests, high-pressured business, with the jazz and friovilty of our life, we are still nothing but lost men and wo men with only hope for eternity which is only in Jesus Christ. It is ever so hard to wake men from their affairs of this life to the mighty issues of a strange unknown eternity that they must face and live in forever^ It is hard to make men think of the conditions of their souls. A few years ago people wept and mourned over their sins while today men don’t find time to even think about eternity, to say nothing about preparing for it. Think now, friend. Do not let your temporary duties and responsibilities meet God, for men who die without having definitely received Christ, are eternally lost. AAA fiiconrages ExpansHHi of Farm Storage S^ce Commissions For Medical Students .aonmiiiuniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiH^^^ Junior and senior niedical students in Grade A medical sdiools in the United States, if physcially fit for military service, may be commission ed as second lieutenants in the Med ical Administrative Corps Reserve, it was annoimced today by General J. Van B. Metts, State Director’ Of Selective Service. This is in accord ance with a policy recently adopted by the 'War Department. The policy also provides. General Metts pointed out, that internes may be commissioned as first lieutenants in the Medical Corps Reserve with the understanding that they will be permitted to complete their inteme- ship before being ordered to active duty. General Metts urged all junior and senior medical students and all internes who desire to take advan tage of this opportunity to obtain commissions, and at the same tim«> complete their medical preparation, to submit to the War Department ap plications for appointment Final approval in each case will be made by the War Department, General Metts stated. Anticipating an increasing defi ciency in grain storage space in many sections of the country, U. S. Department of Agriculture officials are urging farmers in North Carolina to expand storage ^facilities for all grains, it was announced by W. Her bert White of Caswell county, mem ber of the state AAA committee. “It now appears,” Committeeman White said, “that with wholesale changes in the world marketing pic ture there will be increased need for storage facilities on the farm.” Even now;, the Caswell farmer added, storage space for grain is lacking in many sections of the couny try. ' ~ “Terminal space will be tight this Fall,” he added, “and transportation will be available only for grain having pre-arranged storage at its destination.” The AAA committeemw reminded that adequate storage facilities are necessary in order that farmers may take advantage of government loans on any crops. Crops placed under government loan must be stored in bins or warehouse which meet gov ernment specifications for safe keep ing of the commodities. Farmers who increases farm sto rage facilities now will be protecting their own interest against possible future conditions under which ter minal space would be inadequate to accomodate crops which must be stored. Here the committeeman cited the extremely unfavorable conditions under which Canadian wheat farmers tried to salvage 1940-41 grain, himd- fete qf thousands of bushels of which was left in the field for months, exposed to the weather because sto rage space wa^ lacking. hire indicates a crop of 20,840,000 bushels in the 10 “early” states, all of whirii will be seUing peaches during the six weeks. This is nearly 50 percent larger than last year’s crop. ' Miss Mary E. Thomas^^Extension nutritionist, points out that' peaches— either fresh or canned—supply cer tain food materials that the body requires for health ' and' growth. “Fruits are an excellent source of sugar for energy needs of the body,” she declared, “and they also stimu late thb appetite and aid digestion. “They are a principal source of Vitamin. C, which protects against scurvy and is essential for the healthy condition of t^th and gums.. Serve peaches fresh, canned, dried, ^teamr ed, stewed hr cooked in combination with other foods,” she suggests. Mrs. Cornelia C. Morris, ExtedJ^ canning specialist, points out that recipes for making preserves and peach pickles are contained in^Ex- tension Circular No. 113, “Jelly, Preserves, Jam, and Pickle.” This publication is available free upon request to the Agricultural Editor, N.

State College, says it is the largest crop since 1931. The 1940 peach production in the State was 1,344,000 bushels. “The peaches in the Sandhills sec tion are of good quality for the most part,” Watson declared, “and there will be no better fruit buy on the market this year than peaches. If the growers are to receive a fair price for their crop, it will be neces sary for consumption of peaches to rise considerably over normal con sumption. Before we ask people in other states to eat more peaches, we certainly should do our part at home.” The latest fruit situation report of the U. S.
