Today we have a strange condition in our country. Many of our citizens do not, have enough food to eat. Yet there is a surplus of food which threatens to drive farm prices lower and under mine our whole economy.' The cost of living is high. This bill, if passed, would help melt away the government surpluses of food by seeing to it that it gets into the hands of the needy and deserving people of our country. It would prevent this food from be ing shipped to Russia, or other places, as some have suggested. We have the surplus of food. The Federal gov ernment already owns it If addition al aid is to , be given to people on needy roles, then it seems practical to do it this way. . It will serve a human need and it will help to keep our farm prices at a level where the farmers of North Carolina can make a living.; I am for helping folks who are in need and doing away with aid to people who are able to work and earn a living but are too lazy to do it HISTORY '-.V--We had a letter from Statesvflle this week which contained an inter esting facV It said that Iredell Coun ty touched more counties than any other county in the United States. It got me to thinking about the counties that Iredell adjoins, so I checked the big North Carolina map in the office.
