WHO IS THE
GOVERNMENT?
This country is face to
face with the question of
who rules the destinies of the
American people. Have a
government of the people,
by the people and for the
people, or have we a gov
ernment of powerful cliques,
bv groups and fr vote con
trol? The United Mine Work
ers of America, through
John .. Lewis, the president,
has issued an ultimatum to
induct his union ail supervi
sory officials of the nation's
coal mines. There are some
G0,000 of these men who
occupy positions as mine
foremen, assistant mine fore
men, tipple foremen, etc.
They run the mines under
the supervision of the mine
management. The official
announcement ordering
these men to join the union
by March 31, also orders
them to pay $10 initiation
fee and $18 a year dues.
If the United Mine Work
ers and its officers can take
over the management of coal
mines in this manner and.
in effect, oust the owners
and run the mines as they
choose, the same thing will
shortly happen to all indus
try. It is frightening to think
of an organization so pow
erful that it can calmly tell
CO, 000 individuals to join
that organization, pay a
$10 initiation fee and $i.50
a month $1,680,000 the
first year or else. It is still
more frightening to think
that so far there is no gov
ernment control sufficiently
strong to protect an indi
vidual in his right to his job
if he fails to join and pay
clues as directed.
And this brings up the
pertinent question Who is
the government? What has
become of the guarantee of
life, liberty and pursuit of
happiness, in our country?
Apparently, the first step
to corre t this iniquitous

Of Interest to Farmers
State College
Answers Timely
Farm Questions
Question: Will the spray treat
ment successfully "cure" blue mold
after the disease has infected tobac
co plant beds?
Answer: The copper oxide-cottonseed
oil spray method of controll
ing blue mold in tobacco plant beds
is a preventative measure, and is
not very effective where plants are
already diseased, according to How
ard Garriss. extension plant patho
logist at N. C. State College. The
paradiehlorobenzene (P.D.B.) fumi
gation treatment is effective either
as a preventive or as a cure.
These two treatments are recom
mende by State College specialists.
Question: Should I treat my cot
ton seed before planting.
Answer: Yes, yes, yes! Dr. Luth
er Shaw, experiment station plant
pathologist at N. C. State College,
says that North Carolina growers
lost about 150 trillion pi. units of Seed
cotlun every year fror.i puor stands
ami that an outstanding t'acior
t;. using pour stands is the disease
known as dumping-oil'. It can !. con
trolled through proper seed treat
ment. TOBACCO MEN MORE HOPEFUL
Lumberton, N. C, March 23
most tobacco growers in the Lumber
ton area are optimistic as to the
supply of plants when transplanting
time comes, according to Jasper C.
Hutto, supervisor of the Lumberton
tobacco market. The two recent cold
spells killed at least half the young
plants, the supervisor said in his
crop condition report just releas
ed. "Present weather conditions are
most favorable to quick recovery of
ground lost," the supervisor said.
"Warm rains have been just the
thing needed to bring along the beds
that had to be resowed, and these
rains have prevailed w ith some sun
shine. Should more sunshine and
warm nights be the order for the
next week or ten days tobacco far
mers will begin to wear broad smiles
again.
"Reports of a little blue mold to the
south and east of Lumberton have
come in. One farmer reported snails
as doing damage to beds in his sec
tion. All reports of this nature, how
ever, are scattered and not partic
ularly alarming. It is important as to
what may be reported within the
next two weeks."
APRIL 1 CLOSING DATE
FOR COTTON INSURANCE 24PT
Closing date for making applica
tion for insurance on the 1943 cot
ton crop has been set for April 1.
and no applications will be accept
ed after that d.-'te, according to Tom
M. Cornwdl. Cleveland County far
mer and a member of the State AAA
Committee.
The insurance program, Cornvvell
said, is being offered to North Caro
lina grower for the second time this
year by the Federal Crop Insurance
Corporation. Insurance contracts of
fer growers a guarantee of either E0
to 75 percent of the farm's average
yield against losses from unavoid
able hazards, such as droughts,
floods, insect damage, hail, wind
storm, frost, fire, and other acts of
God or the public enemy.
A new clause in the contracts this
year protects growers against losses
caused by wartime shortages of la
bor, materials, or machinery, provid
ed it is determined that full use was
made of the amounts available and
every possible effort was made to
secure additional supplies.
"This year probably is the most
important agricultural year North
Carol ina farmers will ever experi
ence." the AAA official said, "and
it is up to use to give as n uch pro
tection as possible to any crop to
which we devote land, labor, and
materials. Loss of a crop from un
available causes means loss of in
coi and we must maintain a bal
ant d faim economy if we are to
co , ac to produce maximum
a:- it of war crops."
