This State Sends Quarter Billion Outside For Food Could Keep Hugs Amount of Hie Money at Home by Consuming Home Food. Raleigh, May 20.—Food process ing industries should receive in creased impetus in the expansion of manufacturing in North Carolina, due to the fact that North Caro linians spend almost a quarter of a billion dollars annually for food, while the state processes for con sumption only a small percentage of that amount, Director J. W. Harrelson said today, in connection with the "Made-in North Carolina Week” which his department of conservation and development is sponsoring.1) "The ‘Live-at-home’ program has shown that North Carolinians send out of the state annually some $200,000,000 for food and feed. Of this the urban population is esti mated to spend about $100,000,000 out of the state for food and the farm population adds more than $50,000,000 Director Harrelson said. Food processing industries of North Carolina have a small output, but they should expand to an an nual production of $100,000,000. Col onel Harrrlson said, mentioning as lines for future development can ning, creameries, processing sea foods, milk evaporation, meat pack ing and allied industries. The "Made In North Carolina” program, in addition to furnishing opportunity for North Carolinians to familiarize themselves with in dustries now operating, is pointing out additional industries which should have opportunity for profit able development in the future. Col onel Harrison said, adding that grocery lines, particularly farm pro duce, are being featured this year in an effort to help farmers dev'elop still more nearby markets for their products.

Ehringhaus Gaining Rapidly Over State Newspaper ObservaUihns Show A Heavy Trend To * tm In All Seetioi is. Concord Tribune. j' _ If sentiment in this » action can be. accepted as represent a tlve of the State at large, then J. C. . B. Ehring haus will be the next; tSovemor of North Carolina. In this county, particularly, the ElizaUtti'i City man is very popular, and despite recent gains for Mr. Maxwell tf0~ former should carry the county b f a hand some majority. Reports we hear indicate Maxwell strength in perhaps surprisi Vvt man ner but others insist thru! Foun tain's vote will be surprising ‘ and that Maxwell can t get bettej V than third place. A Sideline Dance. Lenoir Newps-Topic. When Mr. Fountain delivei ea' a speech against Mr. Ehrinid>.»«i*s more than a week ago, L> the'c om plete and disheartening ignora. ion of Mr. Maxwell, It was a blow t hat the Maxwell forces had not e< >n templated. Mr. Maxwell beg »n dancing a bit excitedly on the sid ** lines, punching at his two oppoc V pnts in the vain hope that one ic ‘f them would be kind enough t > > punch back at him. But last Friday Mr. Eliringhaus answered Mr. Fountain's speech and still did not mention Mr. Maxwell or even allude to him. It must be heartbreaking. Mr. Maxwell wants somebody to jump on him so bad. and apparently nobody has time to accommodate him. It's rather sad. Fountain’s Attacks. Charlotte Observer, The contest for the governorship is being "pepped” up. Fountain’s radio blast from Raleigh. Tuesday night, was listened to by Chairman Jeffress. of the State Highway j Commission, and when Fountain emerged from the street door of the radio building, the chairman, with bristles up, was waiting for him. Mr. Jeffress approached Fountain with statement that In his radio address. Fountain had "got pn” him. Fountain had intimated that Jef fress was appointed chairman otf the Commission in return for votes Jeffress had cast while a member of the legislature, and the State chairman was justly indignant. Chairman Jeffress advanced the in formation to Mr. Fountain that he had not sought the job and could quit at any time he might desire, and rather warmly denounced the inti mation that any votes he may have cast in the legislature had any connection W'ith his appointment. Fountain’s manner of accepting this denial was retort to the effect that "you keep off me and I will keep off you .’referring to what he de clared was ’’slanderous article'. ” printed about him in Mr. Jeffress’ newspaper. Not content with that, the candidate charged that the per sonal machinery of the State High way Commission is being used against him, citting ihc activities of State Highway Prison Inspector Pitts as an example. In the course of his radio talk, Mr. Fountain “hopped on” Gover nor Gardner’s administration and on Ehringhaus as Gardner’s par ticular champion, both being link ed together in advancement of “a political autocracy” for North Car olina. Only one interpretation can1 'fee placed upon the latest turn thei h Vmntain campaign has taken, and Iti.iat is. it is the last desperate ef 1. *rt of a candidate whose hopes h live been fading out. In the long h: story of North Carolina cor. ve *ts between Democratic candidat a Si the people have not been treated ta> tactics of the kind that have de V9;j, iped in the State this year, not oriij * in the gubernatorial campaign, but; in the campaign for the seat occt ij. ^ed in the United States Sen ate By*"' Cameron Morrison. The per sonal attack campaign of the sort being waged between Democrats in this St ate is bound to result in ad vantage 1 to the victims of it. A little bi t more of the same kind, and any doubt that may have been entertain fd of Morrison's triumph in the fl 'St primary will have been removed. 1919 *S»r* li ■'*• *•»• IfMKWW U hi** ■* 4t> 000 «)!**• "Jokr" Mortin. i N c. 1 ‘MfCUrm* W* fi«*« im 4d.0M ••mr*. and «r« Kill in food Vrn N*lio».
