Mrs. Walls Guest
Speaker At Rotary dub
Mrs. Winifred Wells spoke
on "Lw and Order" at the
February IS meeting of the Wa
saw Rotary Club. In her pre
sentation, Mrs. Wells traced the
evolution of laws, trials and
the application of punishment
for law violations over the cen
turies. In her opening remarks
Mrs Wells said that when two
or more people come together
rule of law and order becames
not only a convenience but a
necessity. As a mean of mo
dernizing the legal machinery
for administering equal justice
in the courts from top to bot
tom, Mrs. Wells said that the
legal profession advanced sug
gested changes in the court sy
stem in North Carolinathatwas
Implemented with a legislative
act tha was approved by a
referendum of the voters. She
said that Duplin County would
come under the new system in
December of this year.
Mrs. Wells said that If the
courts and law enforcement of
ficers live up to their respon
sibilities, if the governing bo
dies of the state and munici
palities live up to their re
sponsibilities and if the people
do likewise, we can absorb and
transcend the problems before
us and come out better men and
women. In her closing remarks
Mrs. Wells stated that where
law ends, tyranny begins and
that everyone should share in
our community to uphold law and
order . We must regulate our
conduct so as to promote the
good of all - remembering that
we set examples for others.
She also state d that the gift
of freedom carries with it a
responsibility.

Comfort Describes Fabrics
KALtiuM - co mi on 15 the
word to use when describing
stretch fabrics and stretch gar'
ments, believes Mrs. Ruby Mil
ler, extension clothing specia
list, North Carolina sate Uni
versity.
For today's stretch fabrics
arenBMdeafa such ? way,that
thof do glee us strtren
ments tnsfeitre more condor
table thai similar garments
made several years ago.
For one thing, the "stretch"
dresses or skirts no longer
"ride up" as they used to.
Improvements make the fabrics
"give" as we move about.
Therefore, garments made of
stretch fabrics are excellent for
chidren's wear, sportswear
and dress wear.
Earl y fabrics for ski pants
and other sportswear, were de
signed to fit tight and then to
stretch from 30 to 50 p^r cent
for extreme body action, Mrs.
Miller says. They were made
with an up-and-down stretch
Today's stretch fabrics
provide "comfort" stretch
which is horizontal and the
"give" is about 25 to 30 per
cent. Only foundation garments
and swim wear carry that two
way stretch characteristic, the
specialist nates.
i-SfTbe pew stretch garments
look much like ordinary gar
ments. It's the wearing thtf
shows up the difference, Mrs.
Miller observes.
As a general rule, these gar
ments are priced higher than
similar garments made of non
stretch fabrics. However, they
are engineered to have more
body, surface texture and free
dom from wringkllng. Thus they
can take hard use and snap
back to their original measure
ment without leaving bagginess.
It's possible to get stretch in
either knitted or woven gar
ments. Mrs. Miller adds. Knits,
by nature, are somewhat elas
tic. The stretch fibers Just
make them more so.

hospital construction projects
under the provisions of the Hill

New Airports have been con

Comprehensive flood control

been adopted by Congress and
construction will soon be under
way on dams at Falls of the
Neuse in Wake County and New
Hope on the Cape Fear in Ca
tham with other dams on both
rivers to follow.
We have been able to secure
valuable aid under the Library

library facilities in several
counties.
Working with officials of our

to the problems of poverty and
unemployment.
The F armers Home /^minis
tration has aided in the con
struction of new recreational
facilities in Duplin, Sampson,
and Wayne Counties by guaran
teeing construction loans.
A number of communities in
the district, both rural and ur
ban, have been able to obtain
considerable aid for water and
sewer projects vital to indus
trial development and residen
tial use.
The district's two colleges -
Campbell at Bute's Creek and
Mt. Olive Junior College - have
been able to construct new fa
cilities with the add of federal
loans and grants, and we an
ticipate similar aid in the con
struction program of the Wayne
Community College in Golds- j
boro.
Millions of dollars worth of
new construction at Seymour
Johnson Air Force Base
Camp Lejeune are an Jdiiea^'s
tion of the permanence and sta*
billty of these facilities
and their high priority in long
range planning for the defense
of our nation.
The location of new industries
in the district and the expansion
of existing ones have been aided
with loans through die Small I
Business Administration and
the Economic Development Ad
ministration.
While our tobacco pro
gram has faced a number of
major problems, we have thus
far been able to meet them and
the price has been maintained
at a sufficiently high level to
amount to ? all-tune record
in 1966 and a re as on able average
last year.
I do not discount our pro
blems. I can offer no mtglc
or easy solution to die war In
Vietnam and other troubled
spots around the world. The
situation of our farmers, par
ticularly In tobacco, remains a
very serious concern. Our pro
blems in the area of race re
lations are very real. If re
elected, I shall endeavor In die
future, as I have in the past, to
give these and other problems
my best efforts.
With increasing seniority and
experience, I believe I cm con
tinue to do an effective Job In re
presenting the people of the
third district, I will do the best
I cm to serve all of the
people fairly, honestly and ef
fectively.

LOANS ARE STILL AVAIL
ABLE on corn and soy beans.
Anyone interested in a loan on
their stored grains should con
tact their JSCS county office.
To be eligible for a loan on
corn, you must be eligible for
price suppot. Now is the time
to make plans for the farm,
storage facility and price sup
port programs. Producers
should be making plans for sto
rage facilities tor their small
grains and also for corn and
soybeans later in the year. It
is not too early to make {dans
and erect storage facilities.
The farmers ofDuplln Coun
ty took advantage of the Storage
Structure, Drying Equipment
and Commodity Loans which are
administered by ASCS. Because
the market price on feed grains
and soybeans, were so low at
harvest time, farmers saw a
need to have adequate farm
storage facilities available on
the farm. Others took advantage
of the CCC approved warehouse
In the county to store their
grains.
During 1967, the county office
disbursed 8 storage structure
and drying equipment loans.
This represents a total storage
capacity of 46,998 bu. and a
total amount loaned of
826,463.61 which the borrower
will repay In five years at
approximately 4 percent In
terest. During this harvest sea
son, we disbursed 11 farm sto
rage loans on corn, 15 ware
house storage loans on corn,
1 warehouse storage on soy
beans, and 8 farm storage
loans on soybeans. This repre
sents a . total of 108,478 bus
hels of corn and 13,857 bu
shels of soybeans which are
now under loan. The loan rate
on corn is 11.24 per bu. and
