Listen To This!
We are glad to call attention to a
radio drama that comes on Sunday
evening. It is called, J'The Greatest
Story Ever Told", and Is based upon
the life and teachings of . Jesus.
The broadcast Is sponsored by the
Goodyear' Tire and Rubber Company,
at a cost 1 of more than 11,000,000 a
year. The only identification of the
sponsor comes at the beginning and
end of the program, in accordance
with, tiie . rules of the Federal Com
munications Commission.
This is something of a sensation
in the radio industry, according to
Colliers Magaune. Paul Weeks Litch
field, chairman of the Board of the
Company, is convinced that the teach
ings of Jesus "can help mankind solve
present-day t problems. This is the
reason he accepted the responsibility
of sponsoring , the broadcast despite
predictions of some people that "the
program will flop."
The purpose of the programs is to
present tenths as . taught : by Jesus,
without and hindrance of creed, sect
or superstition. The experiences of
Jesus are! presented as nearly as pos
sibly "like they must have originally
ocourred.T Mr. Litchfield wants to
lei; the teachings stand without interpretation.
Becaus s we agree with the conclus
ion of th s outstanding business man,
we gladl: call attention to the net
work pre gram.. It is presented each
Sunday i t the following time: At
lantic States, 6:30. P. M," Eastern
Standard
Time.
Why Should
Aliens Vote? y
.Attorney-General Tom Clark thinks
that Communism in this country can
be curbed by tightening laws already
on the hooka but does not believe that
the Communist Party should be out
lawed because this would drive the
members underground and might add
to their power. .' vj.; ',
Mr. Clark points out that the coun
try is' holding about 8,400 aliens
whose own1 countries will not' admit
'them. He also points out that, in
many cases, aliens who are at large
are able to continue activities pre
judicial to interests of the United
States.'; , . , .- ' '
We wonder if Mr. Clark is con
scious of the fact that some of the
American states permit aliens to vote
and to have a part in the selection
of American officials T It seems to
us that if a man or woman comes in
to the United States and lives in this
country without acquiring citizenship,
,that they should be barred from par
ticipating in any election.
Plan Farm Program
During Idle Hours
When weather conditions make it
necessary for farmers to spend their
time indoors, Moyle S. Williams,
Farm Management specialist for the
State College Extension Service, says
that one of the most profitable ways
to spend this time would be to plan
their farm progami for the new year.
Practically all farmers do some
kind of planning, Mr. Williams said,
but too often these plans are poorly
made and loosely coordinated.
The best way to plan, he says, is
to get Ithe entire family together and
spend a few hours on just what the
family wants to accomplish for the
year and how this can be done. These
goals should be written down so the
written plan can 'be used as a guide
throughout the year. A few hours
spent in making a farm plan will
save several days of actual work in
many cases, Mr. Williams declared.
A good farm plan should include
livestock and crops to be produced,
fertilizer to be used, farm woodland
plan, labor requirements, expected
crop and livestock disposal, estimated
receipts and expenses, and other
items needed by the individual farm
er. A good farm plan must also be
flexible to meet conditions through
out the year.
Good planning means larger net in
come for the farm, Mr. Williams said.

A Real Killer
The appalling number of deaths in
the United States from automobile
accidents ' is viewed with a strange
sort of apathy by the average person
in Perquimans County. Approximate
ly 33,0()0 people, many of them little(
children, jwere killed during the past
year, by Automobiles or trucks.
The pepple of our country , accept
the fata! accidents as a part of the
necessary toll to be exacted . by the?
automobiles-and seldom stop to con-,j
sider thlt it is 'possible to reduce the;
number of dead and injured, provided'
proper steps are taken. "I
A number I of states have taken.'
steps toward reducing the number of,
such accidents, among them being
the examination of drivers, whose
licenses ,are subject to revocation
upon caue; and the examination of
brakes, Aorns, lights and tires, ;n
order thaj; these may always be kept
in proper condition.
The vajue of the above provisions,
however,'will depend entirely upon
their adequate enforcement Not on
ly should' they be vigorously enforced
but violations of all traific regulations ,
should be; punished positively by suc
cessively 'increased penalties. " ! ;
An aroused public opinion against
carelessly operated vehicles, that .
take their toll of the innocent as well
as the guilty, will do much to reduce
the number of deaths taken upon, the
highways of the United States an
nually. ' ' ''

Let The Public Know
Not many Americans wit approve!
the advertising campaign of the liquor'
industry, designed to persuade the; T
people of! this country that the Presi-1
dent of the United States, the Secre
tary of Agriculture . and others are'
erroneous when they suggest that the
use of less grain for distilling will add
to the grain available for the feeding
of hungry people in other countries.
The Government now has no power
to limit the use Of grain for the
manufacture of whiskey and, eon
sequently the liquor industry is free
to use grain without limit, either fori
the purpose of increasing their re
serve or of supply.' The present out
look is that no law will be Dassed. s.1;
though trie Senate has voted to re
new Public Law 395," which granted
, authority to the Government to limit
grain for use in distilling spirits.
