N. C. State
I again remind my readers of
an important event to all North
Carolinians and our neighbors
from other states. The fifth South
east.im Flower and Garden Show
to be staged in Charlotte, March
6-14. As was the case in 1964, thet
site will be the Mechandise Mart,
2500 E. Independ:mce, Charlotte,
N. C.
The “Mart” is spaciouk, com
fortable and convenient. The
floor plan is designed for ade
quate exhibit space and easy
flow of pedestrian traffic. If your
energy begins to lag a libt||* jfou
can gat a quick pick-up Writhe
very ni.ee cafeteria and rest your
f;fct. You mighh even find a com
fortable seat where you can relax
and read th.i Chrlotte Observer,
the sponsor of the event. So much
for the many little nicetes pro
vided for your physical comfort.
A-Eerhaps a few comments on what
you can cwpeqt to see will be
approprate. "
Let me say in the beginning
that, in my opinion, the South
eastern Flower and Garden Show
is the Grand Opera of garden 1
shows in the Southeast. Therei is
something here for everyone re

lam sue that it would do us
good, to read the entire fifteenth
chapter of Proverbs. So before you
read any farther into this article
hunt up your Bible and turn to
Prov.kbs and start reading.
Have you ever said anything you
really didn’t mean to say? I am 1
surA that all of us have. I have
said things that souldn’t have been
said by anyone. But after the
words were said I was sorry.
Plea:i remember after words have
been said there is NO WAY that
we can UNSPEAK thcttn. *
Why do we have hard feelings
and fight among pcbple? Generally
one person will say something and,
the other person will knock him
down. Wei forget that when we ans
wer someone in a soft voice that
it has its'effect. Even our enemy
respect us when we speak to him
in a soft voice. And if we continue!

are engaged ihn farming, industry
or some type of business.
Everyone appreciates beauty
but I think sometim-.S that we
are not very aggressive in creat
ing beauty or in maintaining
it once it is created. Here! you
will find a storehouse of ideas
for creating a happy and desir
able environm int for your fam
ily, especially the chi'dren.
From thet 16 professionally de
signed ai.d landscaped gardens
you should be able to pick up
many new ideas concerning the
selection of plant materials and
their proper use in the landscape
plan. The same is true for inter
iors and for outdoor living.
In a very real sense that is also a
trade show because you will see
the! latest in children’s play yards,
garden tools and equipment,
swimming pools, pesticides, includ
ing weed killers, patio construct
ion, fertilizers, picnic <iqu'pment,
pottery, statuary, and greenhouses.
No encouragemnt is needed wi
the 19,600 garden clubbers in th-
Old North State becausel many of
them are already making plans.
But hew- about you Pop? Couldn’t
you steal a littll time. off and
take the lady to the show? And
, the children?
to speak to him in a soft voice
we have a good chanc; of making
him our friend.
It generally takes two or more
to argue to have a fight. A person
would look (and b.ti foolish if he
started hitting himself over the
head with a club because! he was
mad at himself. And a person is
just as foolish to hit his neighbor
ovoir the head with a dub because
he is mad at him If we hit our
neighbor he is almost certain to hit
back. And he may hit us harder
than we hit him. Let m;t ask you,
would it be better to hit ourselves
over the h ad with a club or stick
and let our neighbor go or jhit our
our neighbor and take th:i chance
of being hit back? I am sure that
we would just tap our own head but
would our neighbor? You just
answer that question.
Harsh words is one of the things
( that can start a fight in just a few
seconds. We can take! the same
reasoning here that we took in
fighting. First don’t get in the’
figUt in the first place but if we
do Just pick up something and hit
our own selves in th:( head and

Advisory Council Report
on Social Security
This is the second in a series of
question-and-answer articlm cover
ing the report of the Advisory Coun
cil on Social Security which re
c fctly completed a study of. and
made its report and iecc:ar.U' dat
inis regarding the social security
tiogiam.
By: D. C. Nichols
Field Representative
QUESTION: What was the Coun
cil’s- finding concerning the method
of financing the social security
systitn?
ANSWER. Thet question can be
best answered by quoting from the
i Council’s report: “The! social sec
urity program. ... is soundly fin
! anced, its funds are properly invest
so farenjo* jo sisnq no uo pun pa
timates that the Council has re
j viewed and found sound and ap
( propriato, provision has been made
I to meet all of the costs of the pro •
gram both in the short run and
over th:, long-range future.”
Q. Is it njeessa y that the sys
tem have cirrUt assets sufficient
to meet all future anticipated costs
and exp.fciditures?
A. Quoting again from the Coun
cil’s report—“A compulsory social
insurance f program Is correctly
considered soundly financ'd if, on
the basis ofjactuarial etimates, cur
rent assets plus futurej income are
expected to:be sufficient to cov.r
all obligations of the program. The
present syst (m meets this test.”
Q. Does this, then, differ from
tin necessary financ al structure
of private insurance?
A. Yes, and naturally so. Quot
ing once more from the report—
"Th.f claim sometimes made that
the system is financially unsound. .
grows out of a false analogy with
private! insurance, which because
of its voluntary character cannot
count on income from new entran
ts to me $ a part of the future ob
ligations for the present covered
group.”
Q. In arriving at the acturial
estimates, what wag:) level is as

sumed and used?
A The actuarial estimates are i
based on the assumption that the'
present level of wag. I* will contin
ue to rise in the futurci as they
have in the past (though not, of
course, at a constant rate', th.
Council considers that a desirable
margin of safety is provid Id since j
wage increases will produce more !
income to the trust funds. In addi
tion,* as a cushion against an eco
nomic downturn, there are accumu
lated reserves now of $22 billion
in the trust funds.
B. Did the Council make any re
commendation regarding the pres tit
method of investment of the social
security trust funds?
A. Yes, and two of its recommen
dations relating to the trust funds
are pertinent and of particular in-,
terest: (IV That the present method
of investing - the monies in the
tust funds in U. S. Government
securities, and returning the earn- j
ed interest to the funds, should be
continued: and (2) that the tax
rate should always be set high eno
ugh to ensure that the income ex
! ceeds the outgo year by year. Not
to do so may lead to public mis-

projection and expectation may
