Advertising ratea furnished If request FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1949 Ruining The Green A bad habit, which has developed recently among local motorists, is causing rapid deterioration of the Court House Green in Hertford and ruining the beauty of the grounds. The habit is that of parking cars on the Green, especially on Satur days when parking space is hard to find unless the motorist has sufficient civic pride to park several blocks from the business area, then walk back to the shopping center, thus saving the Courthouse Green the wear and tear of being a parking space. This habit of parking on the Green should be halted, and it is reported to us that a roup of citizens will appear before the County Commis sioners at their next meeting to make such a request Knowing Jhat the County Board feels likewise about this matter, we believe that they will order that parking on the Green is forbidden, and will see that the order ia enforced. At the same time this subject is being discussed with the Commis sioners we also believe that the sub ject of beautifying the Court House Green should be taken up and that action should be taken to cut down a number of the practically dead old trees which are now . standing. It goes without saying, to anyone' f amil iar with the conditions of these trees, that they present a hazard and should be removed. Such action will enable the younger trees to- grow to maturity and thus give added beauty to the Court House Grounds. Our Court House and the Green is one of the show places of the County and it should be kept in order at all times. spend, the demand Blackens and there will be an increase in inventor! ss and, jtYtaHy industrial and manu facturing shutdowns, . This wiH start a vicious cycle of unemployment, which according to past experience, will wreck the economic system upon which the prosperity of this country depends. .- Justification for governmental as sistance to farm prices ia to be found in the protective tariff, which tends to keep up the prices of the things the farmers buy. . Those who; demand an end to farm price support should be equally vigorous in demanding an end to all protective tariffs.

' deeJ7,24,81Jan7,14,21 Your Resolution Is Important Now that January is getting along it might be a good idea for The Weekly readers to pause long enough to make a casual check-up on their New Year resolutions. Frankly, we doubt if one-tenth of one per cent of the noble resolutions have been kept this long. Even less than that number,, however, might justify the national custom, and only one of them, if it is your own and has been observed, might make the difference between success and fail ure for you. We doubt if the mature adults of the country think of self -improve ment but we hope, and believe, that hundreds of young people take life seriously as they prepare themselves for the years that are before them. To these young people we would send a word of encouragement . No truly' great individual ever achieved anything of permanent good to the human race without some self-study, self -analysis and conscious effort to improve. The hewers of wood and drawers of water, so useful in life, use their muscles more than their brain but there was a day, in the life of each one, when some forward stride, once taken, would have led them to larger life.

There has been much discussion . about the high prices received by farmers with metropolitan critics serting that the Government is going out of its way to give s bonus to the agriculturists. This is obvious nonsense to anyone who understands the facts. - The in come of farmers is to be measured, not in the total dollars received, but in the buying power of the dollars, v While farm prices increased during , the war years, the fact is that the things the farmers . buy increased ' a"ter- ac xne present time, zarm prices ' are going down, reaching last month ' the lowest level since September, 1942. In the meantime, the prices of .the things that farmers buy practk ally - stood still . This means that ' farm buying power is declining. The economic welfare of the Unit- . - d States depends upon the mass buying jpower of farri and labor- v. era. u tfiese. , consumers have the money to spend, there is a demand 'for manufactured and farm goods.
