N. C. Stale Ports Are Help To Industries “Both of the North Carolina State Ports, located at Morehead -City and Wilmington, offer an op portunity to North Carolina in dustries and also to industries of the interior bordering states”, said L. D. Nuchols, President of the American Hardware & Equip ment Company of Charlotte, as he met the steamship SOUTHSTAR which docked at Wilmington for discharging a cargo of German hardware for his firm. Nuchols added, “Actually, ex ports also can be handled from either port at a considerable sav great number of cases the ras ing to the exporter, because in a terial in question is produced in a close proximity to both ports. The less expense in transporting agri cultural products to the ports means a profit to the farmer and, in return, the savings that can be made on imports through More head City and Wilmington State Ports mean that the manufactured articles, such as the products we 6240 REMEMBER THIS NUMBER Dialing it will promptly bring a serviceman to your home to check over or repair your electrical app liance.

The Com pany is considered to be one of [the leading suppliers of heavy hardware in this area. Accompanying Nuchols was L. R. Clemmer, Vice President, who said, while meeting the ship at the Wilmington Docks, ‘This is the fourth shipment of hardware that my Company has received through the North Carolina State Ports. This service is very convenient to us since we have a branch ware house at Wilmington and we ship through the State Port because it i» cheaper. Through our endeavors of shipping more and more through the North Carolina State Ports we hope to be a part in the promotion of the State Ports of North Carolina. If other firms would do the same, it would be advantageous to all concerned.” The SOUTHSTAR along with her other cargoes, carried about 500 tons of nalis, barbed wire and rw-wTrirwTrw^TnrwTnnrBTriorTiTrinri INSURANCE FIRE AND WINDSTORM INSURANCE ON DWELLINGS AND BUSINESS PROPERTIES COMPREHENSIVE and COLLISION FOR NEW DRIVERS LICENSES.

Carolina*’ Per Capita Income Figure* For 1953 Available Soon Very shortly now, there will be available the 1953 report on per sonal income for South Carolina and North Carolina and for all States in the nation, according to C. VV. Martin,, manager of the Charleston Field Office of the U. S. Department of Commerce. Of ficially, it is known as the report on “income payments to individ uals.’’ It is a most important one, because it reflects, to a major ex tent, the prosperity or lack of prosperity of a given section of the country. In August of each year data on personal income is published in what is known as the “Survey of Current Business,” the official business nublication of the Office of Business Economics. Again this year, in August, figures on how much individuals received in in come will he published. They will show such income for 1953 by States, hv regions, and, of course, for t-he ^United States. The income includes that receiv ed in wages and salaries, net in come of proprietors, including farmers, dividends, interest, net rents, and other items such as soc ial insurance benefits, relief, vet erans’ pensions and benefits, and allotment payments to dependents of military personnel. The 1952 report snowed a doub ling, trebling, and even quadrupl ing, of income during the 23 years in which the figures have been compiled. Income payments to in dividuals in 1952 totaled an aver age of $1,099 for every man, woman and child in South Caro lina and an average of $1,049 for each individual in North Carolina. What will 1953 show?

Sullivan, Jr. Cherryville, N- C Emergency March Of Dimes August 16-31 New York — Iron lungs and other respiratory equipment have meant the difference between life and death for 1,000 polio patients so far this year and thousands more will need these breathing machines to keep them alive be fore the end of the year. This was disclosed today by Dr. I Kenneth S. Landauer, assistant medical director of the National Founadtion for Infantile Paraly sis, in explaining “one of the un derlying reasons” behind the cur rent Emergency March of Dimes campaign which will run until Aug. 31. Dr. Landauer, revealing that the percentage of severely paralyzed patients had been increasing dur ing the last few years, gave these two reasons for the rise: 1. Many critically paralysed pa tients, who in former years would have died, now survive because of improved care and treatment. 2. Polio is attacking more adults and a higher percentage of these patients suffer severe paralysis. “While many of the new polio patients requiring iron lungs and other breathing aids this year will need them only for a few days or weeks, many will become long term prisoners of their iron lungs. They will join the almost 2,000 respirator patients from previous years whose horizons are still lim ited to their six-hv-three foot machines. These polio prisoners must not waste away their lives dependent on mechanical breath ing to keep them alive. “Fortunately, improved techni ques of treatment and rehabilita tion have been developed—largely through March of Dimes grants— that now offer real hope of free ing the majority of such respira tor patients. But. it is an expensive process and more funds are urg ently needed to do the job,” Dr. Landauer emphasized. “Soaring treatment costs for such long-term polio patients have done much to exhaust March of Dimes funds this year. This is a major reason why an Emergency March of Dimes must be held August 16-31.” 8 Graduate Courses Offered At G-W College This Fall Boiling Springs, N. C., Aug.
