I TW IWVjaiRNAL. I. sccnoM I raeford. HORTW caholina TWRSDAT. JULY 18.19e cnff BMt Tar Heel PEOPLE & ISSUES ED LANIER In our hum ble opinion Governor Sanford made an excellent appointmOTt wtien be named Ed Lanier of Chapel Hill as State Insurance Commissioner to fill d>e va cancy caused by the recent dea^ of Charlie Gold. We have known Ed Lanier for many years. Wehawe always regarded him a disarmingly honest, frank and sincere man. When he makes a mistake, and we all make plenty of them, he will be the first to admit it. Meet Ed Lanier on the street Without knowing him and you might take him to be a one- horse farmer in town attending a church meeting. But right here let us add that we believe Ed Lanier will ever be on guard to look out for the little men and the one-horse farmers. At die UNC in Chapel Hill where he was in charge of the self- help bureau, he was mighty close to the boys and girls in need of help. We feel that he will be fair --eminently fair to the insurance companies, but he will not be their cap tive FoUovrtng his appointment as Insurance Commissioner last Thursday. Ed said that he had a "strong feeling" that the In surance Commissioner and the State Utilities Commission make decisions "that effect the people's welfare in a manner far more expensive than the tax collector” And how right he is! SANFORD . . Terry Sanford did the unusual before an nouncing the appointment of Ed Lanier as Insurance Commis sioner. He sent out a ‘'Confi dential Memorandum" to mem bers of the State Democratvc Executive Committee plus some others, telling them that he wanted to appoint Lanier as Insurance Commissioner, and asked for their reiction. This was not only good poli tics but good democracy. Sanford was probably thinking of the time that the late Gover nor Scott appointed Murray Ja mes of Wilmington to the State Supreme Court, only to have the State Democratic Executive Committee refuse to place his name on the ticket to fill out the unexpired term. Instead of Murray, the Executive Commit tee. then headed by B. Eve rett Jordan, named the late Jeff D. Johnsorrof Clinton. MAJOR McLendon ., .whe ther you agree with Major L.P. McLc ndon ofGreensboroornot. you must admire his ability and his courage to fight for what he believes to be right. Mc Lendon who has opposed the recommendation of the Gover nor’s Commission on Educa tion Beyond the High School to peVmit college presidents to serve on the Board of Higher Education said: "I am too old to fight but too proud to give up.” From his forceful battle before the Commission, of which he is a member, he can’t say that he is too old to fight --for be is a real scrapper— and the war is not over by a long shot. SUGAR LOBBY.. .From what we have been reading in the pap ers in recent days, we think that the investigation which has been ordered into the sugar matter is certainly due and timely. BEAUTY PAGEANT . Fea turing Tar Heel news this week will be the North Carolina Beauty Pagent sponsored by the State Jaycees at Charlotte. Tre- mendous interest is manifest each, year in the pageant and the contestants. We think it was unfortunate that Susan Woodall of Roanoke Rapids was dethroned as Miss North Carolina a few days before her time was up. We agree with Mrs. E. F; McCul loch in the Bladen Journal when she says: "It seems to us however that something could have been worked out which would not cast a reflection on the J aycees organization, which does much besides conducting beauty pageants, and the state as well. , which has long had a reputation of treating young ladies with the finestcourtesy." CHANGING TIMES .. .We are living in a period of change, due in part of the U. S. Supreme Court’s constant musclerflex- ing. While the U. S. has its electoral system of electing our president and vice president, the Federal court has forced the State of Georgia to abandon its cherished county unit system for the election of state officers including governor. This year, for the first time since 1908, Georgia will nominate its state officers on a popular vote basis. Some, yes many, are hoping that this will lessen the grip of Talmadge and his like on state politics. But our far away guess is that when Her man’s time comes he can be elected in a state-wide popular vote contest. Farm Facts Back in 1M7. food i>al-s represented 885 of total gro cery tales They represented only 80” m 1#39.

Farmers Warned On Loans Farmers should borrow mon ey “only if it enhances your economic position, such as im proving the efficiency of your farm.” This is the advice of F. Ver non Wright of Washington, D.C. a top official ofthe Farm Credit Administration. Wright, who spoke recently, at a state-wide Production Credit Association meeting in Morehead City, says the farm er often can decide whether to borrow money by finding out how he can pay it back. “Loans for recurring expen ses should be , repaid from current receipts,” says Wright. "Longer-term loans for capital -purpose items such as heavy machinery and equipment should be paid out of net in come. Today’s farmer, says Wright must have the ability to orga nize properly and utilize well all of the resources at his dis posal —including credit. If the farmer doesn’t, the lender may see danger signals that indicate a loan may be going sour; Faulty performance of the farmer; lack of progress in his overall farm program; depreciation of the farm pro perty: a downward trend of the farming area. -to.
