BACK OFFICERS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT Give Judge Oakey a hand! There is a lot of criticism because the laws are not enforced. It most in fairness be admitted that mnch of the criticism is justified. Law en forcement oncers are deplorably lax in their duties. But there is at least one law en forcement officer in Perquimans County who has the courage of his convictions. That man is Walter H. Oakey, Jr. Judge Oakey made the statement in his court some weeks ago that, af ter considerable reflection he had de cided that, m order to do what he be lieved to be his duty in helping to prevent so much slaughter on the highways, any man convicted in his court of driving an automobile while under the - influence of liquor must serve' a'' jail term. He stated at the time that no exceptions would be made, no matter who the convicted person might be, even if it should be his own brother. Judge Oakey has stood by this de cision and has sentenced five men to jail for driving automobiles while drunk. It happens that several of these offenders are otherwise law abiding citizens, men with good re putations and from good families. It is obviously hard for Judge Oakey to send these men to jail. Last week it became Judge Oakey's unpleasant duty to find a personal friend and a fellow practitioner at the bar in contempt of court because of the young prosecuting attorney's repeated appearance in court while under the influence of liquor and to forbid him the privilege of acting as prosecuting attorney. That the thoughtful people of the county approve Judge Oakey's stand with reference to law enforcement is hardly to be denied. Such approval on the part of the right-thinking ele ment of the public is only natural. But that few of the people of the community have sufficient interest in the betterment of the conditions they criticize to make known their atti tude was evident when Judge Oakey in addressing the members of the Hertford Woman's Club on Monday, stated. . that he felt discouraged be cause he had received so many re quests that certain men convicted in "his court of drunken driving be spar ed the serving of the jail sentence imposed. We have been criticizing the situa tion as it has existed in Perquimans. We had a right to criticize. But one law enforcing officer is taking very drastic steps to Tender law enforce ment His efforts should be encour aged. It we have been dissatisfied with conditions as they have existed, and if we are in earnest about this busi ness of respect for law and order, and if we have any interest in the improvement of these conditions, we See Paramount's Big Broadcast of 1936" With AMOS 'N' ANDY and their grocery store-rls we regusted?

Please bring 'me a bicycle, and lots of good things to eat Please be in Elizabeth City , the day before Christmas. I think I will be there. I want to see yon. for my first time. There are many reasons for wanting to aee you. I love you , althougn i haveat ever seen you. Lots of love, h HORACE BOYCE 4th Grade. .Then is just one thing, wrong with that letter. , It is a pity, I think, for Horace to ask Santa Claus to be in Elizabeth City, because if Horace will stay in Hertford bo will probably see Santa Claus and Santa Clans would not have to go to all that trouble of making the long trip to EUzaoetn City. The Hertford merchants are pre paring to help old . Santa Claus out by having on band lots of fine toys and good things such as Santa uaus deals in, and it might be a fine idea for the children to write to Santa Clans and ask him to be in Hertford that day. Maybe one of the mer chants could arrange to have the good old Saint come here for a short time just to meet Horace and the oflier Perquimans children who are sure to want to am htm.

" ' The choice ' is up to the fanners themselves, said E. W. Gaither, dis trict farm agent at State College, v The Agricultural . Adjustment Ad ministration is willing with a pro gram of cooperation, he continued, but it has no desire -: to force upon farmers any program they do not want , - , -r Both -individualism and cooperation have their advantages and disadvant ages, Gaither pointed out.. The ques tion is under which policy wiH there be the most advantages and the few est disadvantages. - ..;t. - Under the old .Individualistie sys tem, each fanner is relatively free to produce as much as he can of any crop tbnt : win grow' on Us farm. Likewise, he is free to sell his pro ducts to whomever wQl buy, and for whatever he can get' . But with millions - of farmers fol lowingthe same policy, Gaitherask ed, will they be able to sell all their production? Will they be able to se cure gcod prices for their commodi ties? ' Prodtttion in this country can. easily outstrip all local demand, be stated, and foreign countries are not buying at the American surpluses like they need to;';0fei Under a cooperative program, each farmer is asked to consider the wel fare of bis feOowa, Vat at tie same time they am considering his wel fare. All are working together. By adjusting production to demand. each can be reasonably sure Of re ceiving a fair price for his products. Cut-throat competition is to some ex tent eliminated. . A well managed program of coop eration also , encourages balanced farming, crop rotation, and living at home, Gaither observed. Rude Question First Doctor -Why so sad?
