FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 191 A Dead Issue A report from Raleigh last Satur day morning announced the news that North Carolinians will be free from motor vehicle inspection for at least smother two years. The House Roads Committee, the report said, had re ported unfavorable, two measures call ing for the reinstatement of the in spection law. - The issue apparently is dead, and what a shame it is.

The important of diet in the well being of individuals has been increas inly recognized in recent decades, al though one often wonders why, for so many years, no one seems to have undertaken a real study of the fuel content of the human body. There are wise people who believe that, given a proper diet, the individu al could avoid disease. OX course, proper diet, spread over several gene rations, wouldl be necessary because of physical weaknesses that are trans mitted from generation to generation. Doctors have, learned that lack of certain substances in food is respon sible for many of our ills. The same discovery may b made about other scourges that inflict ' suffering and death upon human; beings. Signs Increase Traffic Peril - s A writer of a letter to a newspaper in a neighboring city calls attention, to the fact that advertising, signs,' in red and green colors, have a tendency to confuse motorists and to' make it almost impossible to detect traffic light that operate for the safety of pedestrians, as well as motorists. - We are inclined to agrse with the unidentified correspondent, who, sug gests that adverthung signs should bp "any colors except , red-and green." Certainly, after datk and when streets are wet, there is a maze, pf red and green lighting that, aft ' times; makes it impossible to detect traffic lights.' While on this subject, we also call Increases Income By Using Tractor Fred . Williams, well-known Negro farmer of Route 1, Warsaw, is using all his skill and knowledge to over come the problem of high living costs. According to Riddick E. Wilkina, Duplin County Negro farm agent for the State College Extension Service, the most recent important change on Williams' farm occurred when he de cided to buy a new tractor to replace his old team. The hours he saves with the new machinery will be devoted to construction work,-' which is one of his skills. The Duplin farmer is now in a posi on to run his average-sized farm more efficiently and meet farm cots on a pay-as-you-go basin. Williams usually makes it a r-fip. r attend educational meetings aiw obtain the latest information on farm ng practices. Frequently he consults the county age-,f.
