Farmers Pay Well In Cleveland On Their Crop Loans Out Of 131 Crop Loans Amounting To $58,570, Only Six Remain Partially Unpaid. By M. R. DUNNAGAN Raleigh, Dec. 5.—Collection of 93 per cent of the crop production and livestock loans in North and South Carolina is the record hung up by the Regional Agricultural Credit corporation of Raleigh, and nearly one-fourth of the seven per cent balance is not due until 1934, according to the report as of Nov ember 30 made by John P. Sted irym, executive vice president and manager. While Georgia and Florida are under direction of Mr. Stedjnan^ ifie WoVk 'IsTiandIM foPffibse “states by the Macon office. In North Carolina and South, Carolina, Mr. Steelman’s report shows, there were 6,399 applications for loans and 3,903 loans were made, amounting in all to $2,838, 134, of which $2,634,000 has been collected. The balance still out standing is .only $204,000, of which $47,000 Is not due until next year. Most of the latter item are cattle and dairy loans which run longer. The Regional Agricultural Credit corporation is rapidly liquidating and is expected to close out its business here at an early date, al though the plans have not been announced. Mr. Stedman started the work from scratch and built, up an organization which at its peak employed 103 persons in the office and 62 in the field. The force has now been reduced to 33 in the of fice and 10 in the field. It is thought possible that the balance of the work will be consolidated with that of some other govern ment activity at an early date. ' Cleveland county had 121 loans originally, amounting to $58,570 of which six loans are now partially outstanding, amount to $2,885.46, the report shows. Commissioner* To Draw Jury For Court County commissioners will con vene in a called meeting at the court house tomorrow to draw a grand jury for the term of super, ior court beginning here Jan. 6. Business Men To Form Chamber Of Commerce Here Two Organizations In One Enthusiastic Meeting Held l-ast Night With «0 Present. WUI Meet Again Thursday. At an enthusiastic meeting held in the court house last night, attended by sixty rep resentative business men of Shelby, it decided to organise a chamber of commerce and merchants association into one large group to promote the general Welfare of the town and county. Meet Thursday Night A nominating committee compos ed of D. R. Yates, R. E. Campbell, and Win. Lineberger was appoint ed to nominate a board of direc tors at another meeting to be held Thursday night of this week at 8 o'clock in the court house. It is expected the organization will be perfected at that time. Every merchant, manufacturer, business and professional man is invited and urged to attend this meeting Thursday night. The di rectors will be selected from the various groups of merchants, civic clubs and from the business and profession life. It is planned to operate at a minimum of cost and secure some enterprising local man as secre tary. Prank Sizemore, secretary of the High Point chamber of com merce was here and pointed out the civic and personal advantages of an organized clearing house and suggested that Shelby, in order to include every phase of business, manufacturing and professional life and operate at a minimum of expense, that the one organization be combined into a chamber of commerce and merchants associa tion. J. D. Lineberger, Dr. 8. 8. Roy ster, Wm. Lineberger and Lee B. Weathers pointed out some of the objectives such as the promotion of sales days, uniform observance of holidays, a free airport an air mail service furnished by the gov ernment, civil works projects, sys ■>—» mL Mglwwyfrtaatrfttty tmt-mnr Shelby in order to enlarge the trading area, the publication of booklets containing facts about the city and county, the elimination of ‘‘gyp’’ advertising schemes, lower freight rates and scores of other matters usually attended to by a chamber of commerce and a mer chants association.

Cleveland Accepts Advent Of Repeal With Grain Of Salt In Beaker Of 3.2 Police Blotter Immaculate Today As 18 States Go Wet; N. C. Will Take No Formal Action. The doors in liquor shops in eighteen states wete opened last night in eighteen states and there was a good deal of hoopla ahout it but Cleveland county, so far has a spotless police blotter and the Sheriff’s records showed this morning, didn’t try to celebrate what doesn't concern us. An un usual number of arrests over the holidays indicated a few habitues were joyful, but the county is ap parently taking the death of Mr Volstead’s pet law with nothing more than a grain of salt in a beaker of beer. North Carolina cast a majority oi more than 170,000 for against re peal, but will not formally declair itself on the subject. In the Nov ember 7 election, the state voted down a propoaol to call a conven tion in Raleigh tomorrow to take formal action on the 21st amend ment. South Carolina, which voted against repeal the same day North I Carolina did, held a convention yesterday and formally declared It self-. officially against ratification ! of the 21st amenment. So North Carolina, which claim ed to be the first state to vote against repeal, gave way to its sis ter state to be. the first formality to declare against return of legal ized liquor. With the advent of repeal. North Carolinians studied their state pro hibition law which will keep Tar Heelia dry except for the sale of i.2 per cent beer. The state's dry law makes it il 'ega 1 to sell reep'vp give awav possess or transport whisky. Auditor McKinney Buys Bonds, Saves $1,330 For Cleveland Paper is Below Par. and In terest la Higher Than Banka, So County Makes Money. How to save money by spending it is the profitable paradox Tro^ McKinney, county auditor, has work ed out, and Cleveland county has made $1,330 in the past few weeks by his method. The county, at Mr. McKinney's behest Is in the market for bonds and has already purchased five to realize a net saving of thirteen hundred dollars. It’s a simple pro cess, once you understand the Mc Kinney scheme. Township bonds can be bought today for below par, and they pay more Interest than banks. The saving In interest plus the saving in principal gives the county a net profit on each of the five bonds re cently purchased. For Instance; A thousand dollar Township No. 7 bond maturing in 1942, was bought for (985. which saves the county $115 in principal. The Interest on that bond would amount to $510, but since interest would also have be,'n paid by the bank if the county had kept its money there. Mr. McKin ney lops that in half to arrive at a net interest saving of $255. A total net saving, principal and interest on that bond is $370. A No. 6 Township bond, purchas ed for $930, due in 1936, nets a sav ing of $120. A No. 10 bond, due in 1938. bought for $900, saves $235. A No. 11 bond, bought for $980, ma turing July 1, 1934, saves $60, A No. 8 bond, bought for $770, due in 1944, saves $545. And when you total these saving.) on five township bonds, the net to Cleveland county is $1,330. Mr. Me* Kinney wants some more bonds Anybody want to sell? Mammy’s Chile Is Rank, But Not So Rank As Some In Which A Puulcd Colored Mam my Upholds The Honor Of Her Tub In Letter Maybe you remember the story about the student who wrote an essay on Achilles. “When Achilles was a little boy,” he said, “his mother dipped him in the River Stinks, and after that he was in tolerable.” Well, all the school boners aren't pulled by the students. There was the colored mother last week who became highly Incensed over her child's report card. It was a good report, too, but she didn’t under stand that business about deport ment. The local schools rank their students in order of excellence. Under “Deportment,” the little colored girl’s card read "Rank I." And the teacher received a note from the mother. She said: “Dear Teacher: When have my boy James Franklin been rank In class. I keeps my child clean be cause I bath him every other day and give him a spunge ev^ry day; 'the first time I have gotten a re port card by being rank in class. I want you to exzamineer him when he comes to school tomorrok. I do not like It worth a dime.” Duke Alumni To Meet Here Dec. 11 Prof. Myers Of The Duke Faculty To Speak At Central Church.

Card, assistant national director of the American Junior Red Gross asking 8helby Juniors to participate in the na tional project: "We are now check ing our records and making plans for the Junior Red Cross partici pation In the veterans hospital adoption project. Your Junior Red Cross members have proven their worth so well In local affairs that we wonder whether or not they would like to share In this nation al project. Do you think your Ju niors would be willing to accept 100 of these veterans as an activity project?
