North Carolina Urged
To Meet Quota by 20
RALEIGH, March 12.— North
Carolina women can ill afford to
let the State fall short of its quo
ta of 106 recruits for training: in
the women’s Army Corps as hos
pital technicians, it was stated to
day by R. L. McMillan, State Di
rector of the N. C. Office of Civil
ian Defense.
McMillan emphasized that the
Army has requested the state to
meet the quota by March 20, less
than a week from now, in order
to assure sufficient Army hospital
technicians to care for the ever
increasing stream of the ill and
the ^wounded sildiers returning to
this country from battlefronts
abroad.
“The lengthening casualty lists
show many of these heroes to be
North Carolinians, men of our
own flesh and blood,” stated Mc
Millan, a veteran of World War 1.
“It behooves North Carolina wom
en to consider seriously the patri
otic contribution they can make
by joining the WAC to serde in
Army hospitals, where these re
turning heroes urgently need their
help. They have given the utmost
required of thettn, and the least
we can do is to see that tey get
adequate hospital care."
McMillan appealed to interested
women to contact immediately the
Army Recruiting Station nearest
them for information about join
ing the WAC.
The State must provide about
25 additional .recruits to meet its
*uota for hospital technicians.

rhe Meanest Word
n Human Language
As had been announced, the
)astor of the Second Baptist
Hhurch last week brought a mes
sage at the evening hour on the ,
‘The Meanest Word in the Bible
or in Human languageA
large number^of guesses came in
ahead of time. Those guesses
included such words as gossip, de
vil, malice, hatred, temptation, no,
tomorrow, unforgiveness and
many others, but it remained for
lie*. Z. v*. oetUemeyer to guess
the correct word, fie was the
only one who sent in the correct
guess, and he gave the Scripture
reference, which was Proverbs
16:28, which says in part,
“a whisperer separaeth chiet
friends." The pastor in his mes
sage showed what a “whispering
campaign’’ could do to undermine
and tear down reputations, and
how that the meanest thing a per
son could do was to start “whis
pering" about someone. Said he,
“I’d rather face a Jap with a
gun in each hand than to have
someboly start whispering about
bout me. 1 would have a far
better chance with the Jap than
with a “whispering person. ’
However, he said that there
is a whispering campaign that
would be good. Just whisper to
that friend, “I heard something
good about you today, or whis
per to that lost person, “1 am
praying for you for I want you
to be saved," or whisper to the
Master, “I am dedicating mysell
and my all to Thee.”
State Guard Co.,
Need* More Men
To tre people of Lincolnton and
Lincoln county, Cherryville anil
Cherryville Township:
12th, 1941. During the past
have had the time to write aboui
our State Guard Company, but
our Publicity Corporal has beeiT
doing a fine job in reporting th?
activities of the Company. i\jy
reason for writing this is that /
have something on my chest ana
want to get it off.
The 29th company of the North
Carolina State Guard was muster
happened. The first Commanding
ken place and many things nave
tour years many changes have ta
March 12th 1941. During the past
officer of the Company was Capt.
Victor Fair. Then Captain John
Morton. I succeeded Capt. Mike
VVhitener who took over after
Capt. Morton resigned. These men
who preceded me had the same
headaches that I have had and am
stil. hiving. Our main problem is
and always has been keeping the
strength of the Company up to
acceptance by the Adjutant Gen
eral. At one time during tile ad
ministration of Capt. hair the
Company was up to full strength.
The same was true once with Capt.
Morton. I have done everything
that I know possible but have nev
er been successful in getting the
Company to full strength. i he
best we have had was 47 men,
short of full strength.
Several months ago Cherryville
and the area around Cherryville
was added to our Company area in
the hopes that we could be able to
build up our Company to full
strength. I have met once with the
American Legion Post in Cherry
ville. I am hoping that we will get
some recruits from that territory
in the near future.
We also need some more men
from Lincolnton. Some times we
are told that we do not have the
men available. But we do have the
men, hundreds of them. But there
I called my First Lieu, Lloyd t.
ser and my 1st Sgt. B. B. Cine
Elmore, my Second Lieu, Fred Ki
ts something wrong somewhere,
berger in a conference and sug
gested that one of them take over
as commander and let me start
back as aprivate and see if that
would hi-lp the situation. As vet
they have refused to do this. Now
I am not talking through my hat,
that is exactly what 1 will do rath
er than see the Company lost to
Lincolnton.
it we are 10 nave a company
something is going to have to be
done and soon. We go to camp
again in July and we aren’t going
without a full Company. During
inspecting last week the Colonel
told us that we had the best Com
pany in Camp last year but that
we had to have more men this
year.
We have thousands of dollars
worth of equipment now furnished
by the Federal Government, they
aren’t going to allow us to keep
this property unless we furnish
the manpower to use it.
We celebrated our Fourth Birth
day last Monday night with an
oyster stew at the American Leg
ion Hut. Mess Sergeant Zeb kee
ver and his Cooks realy put on Hie
mess for the men and they really
enjoyed it.
We will hold a special meeting
at the Armory next Friday night
at which time a social training cf
ficer from Fort Bragg will be with
us. Our regular meeting will be a.
the Armory next Monday mgnC
Any one interested m the com;
pany is invited to meet with us
and look over what we are trying

TRIMS OWN PAY
TO $1 PER YEAR
NEW YORK, March 13.—Frank
Phillips, chairman of the Board of
Phillips Petroleum Co., has slash
ed his own salary to $1 a year
from $50,000 because of heavy
tax deductions, it was disclosed
today. (
In a message to stockholders m
the March issue of “Philnews,
the company’s house organ, Phil
lips said that he did not see why
the coirfpany should “pay out $50,
000 a year and benefit me by only
$309.36.”
Phillips explained that Ihe big
shrinkage was due to high Federal
income taxes and state levies. His
pay on top of his other income, he
said, is subject to Federal and
state taxes which leave him only
$300.36 from his salary as board
chairman. The cut became effec
tive February 1.
