Fall Elections
The narrow gap between the
two parties makes this fall's elec
tions very important. Many of my
friends on both sides of the aisle
are not wasting any time in their
campaigns. Such is the great
game of politics. With the Senate
so evenly divided, there will be
treat r.atiou-wi.le attention given
to all races this fall, particularly
in the cinse sta!,s.

Last week, the office emplo
yees of the North Carolina dele
gation entertained the members
at a buffet dinner A part of the
after dinner program was a Joke
telling contest between two teams
of our delegation. It was a riot of
humor. Judges voted a tie be
tween the teams.
Reciprocal Trade
I supported the extension of
the Reciprocal Trade Agreements
Act. The Senate divided over
whether it should be a one-year
or a three-year extension. I fav
ored extending it for three years,
because proper wot Id trade is ex
tremely important to our econo
my. Also, I have been interested
in cutting off economic aid to
foreign countries. 1 want them to
become dependent upon their
trade and self-help for strength,
plus our military aid to those
countries honestly trying to help
stamp ot't agressive communism.
The Senate vote! for the one
year extension.
The Commission
Last year, the President asked
for and got a one-year extension
of the reciprocal trade agreements
in order to appoint a commission
to study the whole field of world
trade. This was dor.e. It was call
ed the Randall Commission, and
it recommended the three-year
extension of the present act with
certain modifications. My friends
on the other side of the aisle lid
not see fit to go along with the
President's commission. While I
realize that the prcblems are very
complicated, my party has taken
a historical position for free trade.
I hope that we can get this work
out because I do not believe we
can continue to p.nir billions of
dollars in economic aid to other
countries from our own taxpay
ers pockets.

MAKE A DRAFTING CASE
causa the size of the drafting
board will be the controlling
element The case ia made of
I -inch lumber, the slanted sides
being about 6 inchea high at
one end and about 3 inchea at
the other. The inside shelf ia
attached with angle fasteners.
The 3-inch box end la hinged
to drop below the paper tray
when the case la opened. The
drafting board is hinged to the
6-inch end. Screen hooks keep
the lid closed for carrying. A
suit-case handle provides a
grip. Strips of elastic cloth
on the underside of the draft
ing board hold the T-square
In place. Other strips, tacked

lie lias the biggest say in whether or not
you fake home a fat pay envelope.
Who is be? The consumer the per
son who buvs, or docs not Iniv. the
product you have a part in making. If
he thinks the product of your company is better than that of any
competitor, and if he can get it al an attractive price, he'll buy
it; your company will prosper; and there'll be more money for
the wages and salaries of your company's employees.
If he can get a superior product elsewhere, or get it cheaper,
of course he'll buy that.
By doing your full part in turning out the best possible prod
uct and turning it out more efficiently, so that it can be sold
at a lower price you can persuade the "biggest boss" to buy it,
and so make raises possible. The better you produce, the more
you benefit, in the long run.
You are the boss when it comes to deciding wliat you will do
with your dollars that don't have to be spent. Why not
deposit them here, and be ready for future emergencies

mayor who came in
for publicity of an undesirable
nature in the recent Seott-Len-non
senatorial campaign ran a
poor third.
We have always thought that
Luther Hodges fell heir to a
goodly number 'of votes just be
cause his name was Hodges and
Brandon Hodges was then serv
ing ns State Treasurer; and a
second reason the dry forces over
North Carolina were doing some
quiet but effective work for the
Rockingham County man. With
out a doubt Luther Hodges was
the ablest of the thee and he has
conducted the affairs of his office
in a most c: mmendablc manner.
But the ques'ioi: now is: Will
a Moore County industrialist, Wil
liam Preston Saunders, who re
tired as vice-president and direc
tor of the Robbing Mills a few
weeks ago follow in the footsteps
of his UNC football captain and
run for Lieutenant Governor,
come the spring of 1956?
WILSON A likely contender
for the State YDC Presidency this
fall is Henry Hall Wilson of Mon
roe who has just been nominated
without opposition for his second
term as a member of the North
Carolina House of Representatives
from Union Countv. Wilson is an
able young man and should be
able to win un'css something un
foreseen happens.

Senate we hope that legislation

STAG Commissioner of Agri
culture L. Y. (Stag) Ballentine
has long cherished the ambition
to be Governor of North Carolina.
He came near running in 1948
when he was coming to the end of
his term as Lieutenant Governor.
But when he decided not to run
for Governor and, we understand,
was ready to announce for State
Treasurer, Kerr Scott, then Com
missioner of Agriculture, made
the surprise announcement that
he would not be a candidate for
renomination foi Commissioner of
Agriculture. Then almost over
night Stag switched (he had not
officially announced for Treasur
er) and announced for Commis
sioner of Agriculture, a position
he won without opposition in 1948
and again in 1952.
Like Thad Eure and some of,
the other would-be Governors,
Stag is getting a little shopworn.
Stag made a good Lieutenant
Governor and we think he has
made a good Commissioner of
Agriculture but the farmers have
never looked upon him as their
champion as they did Kerr Scott.
The difference could be that Kerr
Scott would make a bee-line for
hij Haw River farm when his
work was done in the Commis
sioner of Agriculture office where
as Stag and his beautiful and
c'liirmlns wife can often be seen

t'-es ili'owii:': '
'he stems t o.
plait. thi?
ANSWER: Waat you see form
ing on the stems o! the Irish po
tato plants are the true seed balls
of the plant and are not uncom
mon at all. These seed balls in
variably form in years when the
weather is cool and moist during
the blooming season. This occurs
more often in Western North Car
olina than in the Coastal Plain.
QUESTION: What is 2,4,5-T?
ANSWER: The chemical 2,4,5-T
(2,4,5-Trichlorophe.ioxyacetic) is
similar to 2,4-D weed killer In
common use in North Carolina at
present, except that it is more ef
fective than 2,4-D on some plants
and less effective on others. It
appears to be particularly more
effective on some woody species
such as blackberries, poison Ivy,
sweet gum, some oaks, rose and
ribes. The chemical is more ex
pensive than 2,4-D. In some cases
increased concentrations of 2,4-D
will do the job nearly as well and
more economically than 2,4,5-T.
The chemical is available as a-
mines and esters. Esters are gen
orally more effective.

QUESTION: Whut afe the plant
diseases which most often attack
alfalfa grown in North Carolina?
ANSWER: Dowry mildew, leaf
spot, leaf blotch, black stem, an
thracnosc, and rus . But there re
cently has developed another ser
ious threat to alfalfa in this state
the alfalfa stem nematode,
which has spread into North Car
olina from Virginia.
