C. achieved .the first all-around 100 percent t Savings Bonds performance in the peace time history of the Program in the State. Bond sales last year amounted to $51,644,143, which is over 102 percent of the State’s goal of $50,600,000. This is the first time that N. C. has exceed ed its annual dollar goal and represents a 6 percent or- $3 million increase over 1962 sales. The outstanding sales record in 1963 in the State was p imarily the result of several factors, of which the Payroll Savings pro motion and the advertising and publicity support by the media were outstanding. N. C. achieved over 202 per cent of its annual Payroil Sav ings quota for, the year, which amounted to 36,350 “new savers” being added to the Payroll Sav ings Plan for the regula • pur chase of Bonds. “We are indebt ed.” said Mr. Walter P.

Feed Grai $ 1 Program ’ The feed grain progr u has made a lot of progress tot ard get ting the supply of feed f ain* in line with the needs, aoo ding to A. P. Hassell, Jr., Exeou ve Dir ector for the Agriculture Stabi lization and Consermtao State Committee. Starting in 19 l, there was a carry over of 85 million tons of feed grains. This vaa ap proximately 40 million to s more than the 45-50 million ton. that is considered needed in case of em ergencies. This excess s- uply of feed grain was causing c pressed prices on feed grains and reduced net income to farmers. , Hassell says that as a e-sult of the feed grain program for • the past three years, the carry over now is approximately 57, million tons. As a result, nogram farmer income is up and govern ment cost are down. Hassell says that the si nup tor 1964 program will start on Febru ary 10 and run through March 27. The program is essentia ly the same as it was for 1963. I’anners with questions about their indi vidual farm should contact their local ASCS office.

E. (Bill) Thalheinier, president ‘ said today. i “We have invited a number of beauty Queens and asked campus organizations at the southern col leges by nominate entrants,” Mr. 1 Thalhelmer said. We are very < pleased with the response. . Entrants selected by the Lodge | will compete for the “Miss South- \ em Ski Queen” title currently help , by Cynthia Stroupe, a Queens ( College senior.

Prizes for the winner and runners up include a summer scholarship, ski clothing and oth er gifts. The winner will retain her title for a year, representing the ski lodge at a number of functions as the south's unofficial qpeen of snow skiing. , Pfcm ACP Spring Practices Now Farmers who have been consid ering soil-and water conservation practices to be established on their farms with Agricultural Con servation Program cooperation next spring and summer should file their requests for program assistance as soon as possible, J. T. Randolph, Office Manager for the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Office, has suggested. The 1964 ACP was drawn up several months ago, and applications are being accepted at the ASCS county office. Randolph explained that the sooner the application is filed, the easier it wifi be to obtain approv al of the practice and take care of other program details before the work is begun. Under the 1964 program, cost share program assistance aver ages about half the cost of carry ing out such conservation practic es as establishing and Improving vegetative cover of grasses, le gumes, or trees fer soil protection; installing erosion-control structur es; and practices for the conser vation or more efficient use of water. | The Agricultural Conset/ition Program has been in continuous operation since 1936, When it was authorized by national legislation to encourage farmers to protect soil, water, and woodland resour ces on the farm of the Nation by sharing the costs of needed con servation measuies. “ACP program assistance has been singularly effective in intro ducing conservaiton practices on privately-owned cropland, pasture, |or woodland,” Mr. Randolph said, “and this applies particularly to practices which provide little or no immediate return.” The initial sign-up period will be from January 20, 1963 through February 10, 1964. Taxpayer Has Choice In Tax Refund Takpayers were reminded today of the plan allowing them to take Federa 1 tax refunds in U. S. Savings Bonds. Takpayers due Federal income Tax refunds can take them in Series E Savings Bonds, cash, or apply thu refund to next ye»v‘s tax. Allowing a taxpayer to choose between Savings Bonds and a check' began last. year. The Trea sury had conducted a survey of taxpayers to determine their in terest in a Savings Bond refund. A significant number of those questioned said they would take their tax refunds in Series E Bonds if given the option. The individual income tax forms—4o4o and 1040 A—provide a space in which taxpayers may elect U. S. Savings Bonds for their refunds. Information on the also, appears in the in structions for both of these forms. Veterans Urged To Report Annual Income Approximately 27,000 disabled veterans and dependents of some 21,000 deceased vetrans in North Carolina who receive monthly pension payments were reminded 1 today to report their annual in pome promptly to the Veterans Administration to avoid having their payments stopped. J. D. Deßamus, manager of the VA Regional Office at Winston- Salem, N. C., said that the VA has mailed to all pension reci pients a punched card upon which the income report must be made. Pensions cease under law if the ihcome cf a pension recipient rises above the established amount. Dependent parents who receive dependency and indemnity com pensation also receive income questionnaires and their pay ments are similarly regulated by the amount of their income, De- Ramus added.
