SURPLUS SEED
AVAILABLE FOR
FLOOD, DROUGHT
AREAS
The State College Ex
tension Service has compil
ed a list of sources of sur
plus legume and small
grain seed available for
the drought and flood
stricken areas of North
Carolina. A copy of this
list has been placed in the
hands of every county
farm agent in the State.
John W. Goodman, as
sistant Extension director
acted promptly when it
was evident that the dry
weather in July and the
heavy rains and floods in
August had destroyed
thousands of acres of food
and feed crops, and Jmany
bushels of stored seed. He
called upon Extension
agents to report on seed
surpluses in their counties.
The survey showed that
there are available: 124,
836 bushels of oat seed,
61,232 bushels of wheat,
18,500 bushels of barley,
1,000 bushels of rye, 30,
000 pounds of crimson
clover, 17,000 pounds of
Italian rye grass, and
5,000 pounds of vetch.

1 RESOLUTION
The following . resolu
tion was unanimously ad
! upted at the last meeting
of the Earl Horton Post
of the American Legion.
WHEREAS, the greater
' part of the world is at war
and the armed minions of
' u despotic government al
» ready have covered the
face of continental Europe
* like a scourge; and
WHEREAS, there re
’ mains but one nation stri
ving in mortal combat to
j preserve the principles of
democracy, of right and
.justice, and of individual
freedom, and to save the
world from domination by
a totalitarian state; and
WHEREAS, our Presi
dent » and Commander-in
chief has declared that a
limited emergency exists
Jin our Country and has
j created a National Com
* mission with
I nary powers to direct the
t activities and industries of
i our Nation in its war de
} sense program, upon which
' Board he has chosen to
place a citizen of our own
State; and
WHEREAS, it is timely
; and necessary that all or
r ganizations, groups and in
, dividuals co-operate to
! the fullest extent in the
I furtherance of national
I preparedness; NOW
- THEREFORE
r BE FP RESOLVED, that
i these organizations do
I earnestly commend and
, approve the actions and
, deeds taken and done for

Community, and for the
everlasting preservation

„ (From front page)
she said tfhat she could
not find out, but that on
some occasions a German
plane shot down will chan
ge insiginas and become a
“British” plane,
i In Holland now a person
is a prisoner from the rest
of the world, not often
does mail from the outside
world reach the people
there, and every message
from there is very strictly
censored. Even the Dutch
East Indies are absolutely
cut off from the parent
country. Dutch money is
not worth anything and
no one is permitted -to
take any from the country.
Fortunately, Mrs. Weilage
had a sufficient amount in
U. S. Traveler’s Checks to
pay her passage from Hol
land.
In describing the return
to the United States Mrs.
Weilage said that they ex
perienced great difficulty
in arranging passage. The
ship, American Legion, de
layed sailing for two weeks
in order to bring as many
; Americans home as possi
; ble. In Holland as in o.th
-1 er countries there were
1 many who were seeking to
leave. Arrangements were
: made for 65, then they
- Were told that none could
• leave. The next day, how
• ever, the authorities said
• they had picked twelve,
» and Mrs. Weilage and her
! son were included in this
■ number.
- They rode from Amster
• dam to Berlin by crowded
» troop trains and from
, there-to a port in Sweden.
• From there it Was an in
credibly hard bus trip of
14 hours over very rough
roads to Petsamo where
they embarked. The Am
erican Legion sailed with
876 passengers, and with
p the solemn word from Ger
! many that she would not
' be responsible for the saf
ety c,i the ship.
In answer to the ques
’ tion whether or not the
: passengers knew of this
■ danger, Mrs. Weilage said
; that they did as many o f
? them had private radios
and the news spread " rap
. idly. However, there was
. no panic or confusion and
) everyone remained calm
[ and cooperated wonderful
-1 ly on the difficult journey
1 back. The ship was very
; crowded and Mrs. Weilage
r said that for a week she
Was quartered in the
“Brig”, but that was about
. the best place on board as
t there was more room and
5 more privacy than any
, where els§J
The crossing. was un
. eventful except for a sev
, ere storm and the ship
> landed safely in Brooklyn.
. There w r ere no convoys on
! the voyage, despite report
, to the contrary.
! At present Mrs. Weilage
and her son will remain
r here but future plans are
indefinite as yet.
■ take to render to our Gov
• ernment our utmost help
s and assistance in the ad-
I vancement of the cause,
plans and works of and
for a speedy, adequate and
; complete preparation for
i the defense of our home
| and Country.

Earl Horton Post 122 of
