Sixth Birthday
For GIJM1
June 22 marked the sixth bir
thday of the GI Bill, a law de
signed to help World War II vet
erans get back Into the swing of
civilian living.
During the six years the act has
been in effect, a majority of the
state's estimated 385,000 World
War II veterans have benefited
by one or more of its three ma
jor provisions.
Those provisions are educa
tion and training at Government
expense; Government > guaran
teed and insured loans for hom
es, farms and businesses, and a
readjustment allowance pro
gram to "help tide veterans over
durng periods of unemployment
or slack self -employment.
Mere's the record of the GI Bill
in North Carolina to date, as re
ported by the Veterans Adminis
tration Regional Office in Win
ston-Salem.

trained on-the-job ? or on -the
farm under the law's education
al provisions. AH together, the
"et?rans spent a total of about
2,500,000 months in the class
room, at the work bench and on
the farm, or an average of ab6ut
15 months of training per veter
an. Slightly over four percent of
ail the veterans who have been
in training? or around 17,000 ?
have exhausted their entitlement
to further Gl Bill training.
A little over $150 million of Gl
loans have been obtained by 32,
875 World War II veterans dur
ing the six years of the Gl Bill
in this state. Of the loans, 29,236
were for homes, 905 for business
es, and the remaining 450 were
for farms and farm equipment.
Veterans in North Carolina have
turned out to be good loan risks
Only five-tenths of one per cent
of the loans were defaulted to the
extent that the VA had to make
good the guaranteed and insured
portions.
Although the third major ben
efit of the bill ? readjustment
allowances for unemployment
and self-employment ? ended j
for most veterans on July 25, ]
1949, a few eligible veterans are
still drawing those benefits. Ap
proximately 200,000 of the state's
veterans drew readjustment al
lowances totaling some $96 mil
lion during the six years.
Meadow hay cut during the
early bloom stage produced great
er gains in beef cattle at the Up

Station than similar hay cut af- j

feeding experiments were con- 1
ducted last winter by Lemuel
Goode, animal husbandry scien- j
tist, and W. W| Woodhouse, soil '
fertility scientist, with the North '
Carolina Experiment Station.

i AND HIS NEWS OF NEBO VALLEY
Now they're tearing away the
old bridge. What will they do
next?
We've been having a very hot
wave tor the last week. Us tou- j
gh. Can't stay in the branch all
the time.
I hope the death rate will be
less than last fourth of July, but j
I fear it will be much greater.
More roads, more death traps on
the roads. Why celebrate the
fourth of July? Why not wait un
til Christmas and get it all at
one time? So many will take off
on the 4th that won't come back t
only in a box. Well, no use -for
me to warn you ? you'll do it
anyhow.
Rev. A. S. Belk, the new pastor
at Waynesville, N. C., has two
churches, the Shady Grove chur
ch and the Maggie Chapel. Mr.
Belk is a graduate of Pasadena
College, Pasadena, Calif. He has
has held pastorates in Knoxville,
Tenn., Asheville, Gastonia, ?*nd
Durhani. Also Spartanburg, Rock
Hill, and Winnsboro, S. C., and in
Los Angeles, Calif. In his minis
terial labors he has (raveled in j
most of the States of the Union,
and in three foreign countries, j
He has organized end built a
number of churches and schools.
Also educated a number of de- j
serving young people. . He is
known as a Bible teacher and
preacher. He goes where he is in
vited and stays where he's well,
treated.
I don't bother about going pla
ces. Its so hot in the good old
summer time. In the winter time
I stay close in and hug the fire.
No winter time in two years have
we hand. Bugs and snakes are
getting bad.
Yes, High Tax (
Harry to coming

na to look after
hi.s chosen few.
So get out youH

Put on your
Sunday clothes. }
Have your wifei
to visit the la- 1
dies' beauty shop. Tell her to
come by the 10-cent store and
buy a bunch of lovely /lowers.
Place them around his f*et and
on his head, so he will know you
are for Civil Rights, Social Equal
lty and higher taxes.
I know very little about Pres
idents, but any way, Pierce was
born on Friday, elected on Fri
day, inaugurated on Friday, and
died on Friday. Can you beat that
for Friday?
Grant was once expelled from
West Point, then made one of
the nation's greatest generals
that ever buckled on a sword.
Washington was the wealthi
est man to enter the Whke House
and Lincoln the i>oorest.
High Tax Harry the cheapest.
Lots of peoplp think DAMTT
but Just can't say it, but that's
what It ia
Wait, lets look and listen, it
sounds for the politicians to pro
mise every one and his brother
a pension, paid for by the Federal
Government. This idea goes over
big with a lot of people. Now do
not be fooled by these lying poli
ticians. At least 60 million of
our pfeople are gainfully employ
ed at good wage.; which is away
above the world's average. They
are capable of taking care of
themselves. When a man or wo
man reaches 65 they should he
shot. Hitler shot all old people
or gave them s eeping powders,
and they never woke up. I tried
to get some of that Penicillin
stuff what makes old men young
and peppy. Wilson Griffin said I
was too old. I'd ,1 ave to see Dock
and get a permit Wasn't for an
old man. Might keep him on the
ball. Its no foun.ain of youth for
old worn out n.on. They need
sulpha drugs, like Sir Herr Hit
ler gave the old ticks, something
that knocks out quick. That old
age stuff them jackasses been
talking about Lv only a sham.
You tell 'em not worth a
damn, mean a hell damn. No, a
corn mill dam, They may fool
you, but they cant excite this
old cuss, and I'm not from Mis
souri, if High rax Harry did

When a man says to the peo
ple, I will do your thinking for
you, you keep quiet and run a
long and pay the bills and we'll
take much better care of you
than you can yourself. Uncle ,
Zeke says after looking at the
price tag the government must
be putting supporters on the sup
ports when it comes to buying
beef steak and chewing gum. |
If we keep on trying to put too
many beggars all over the world
on their feet, we will only suc
ceed in knocking ourselves off of
own feet.
Oh, what the-heck will Ihey do
lateral trade pact with Argentina
and planning one with Soviet
Russia, what becomes of Cordell
Hull's plan for world free trade?
Oh, w hat the heck will they do
after the 4th of July.
What's these big shots going
to do after the 24th who lose? A
lot of money spent, or just throw
ed away. The worst part they
must congratulate the man who
won. Thai's hard to do. Its like
complimenting the speed cop on
winning the race, when a fool
gets drunk and loses his car and
a hundred too and goes to jail.
So you better fly straight the
fourth of July. You won't stop at
losing your car. Your life may be
gone, and you in a box under the
ground, the coffin done made,
but you don't have to have It on
the Toqrtmmwsa ycru want-ity
Some wiil diej others^ will-live to^
tell about it. So fly straight ? live
to tell about it.
Say, Uncle Hiram, how about
letting Uncle Sam runs your bus
iness. He'll tell you when to sow,
when to reap, what to plant and
when to plow up. After all that
then all you got to do, dig up the
tax and run the show.
Flapper Sallle says we should
always look a long ways ahead.
For instance, she says that when
a young buck calls her up she
first finds out how much alimo
ny h,e would be able to put up in
case she found a better s(>ort.
Well, that's clever of any Ral
No wonder the poor guy taiks
so much. His father was a land i
auctioneer, and his mother was
a woman.
The Ship of State is 011 the .sea
of Socialism. Not on the Sea .of
Gallilee. Seems that heir is on
wheels. Just around the corner
them Russians are bad people.
Nothing like 'them has yet be**n.
If they Would paddle tbeJr ca
noe, we'd rock our little boat a- '
lone. America -stands at the cross
roads leading to Liberty or to
Death. It all. depends on how we
handle Russia in the next few
?years. I do believe they are pre-;
paring for war ak fast as any na
tion ever did any time in history. '
I have learned much about Rus- .
sia in a short while.
Now there comes a painful j

You go to your church, I'll go to

Soon you may be gone. They i

behind after you've gone? You
can't worry about what you left
behind. You may do well to take
care of the heat in the other
clime. I like cool weather the
best when its so hot. But gals if
you are thoroughbred here, you.
need not worry about the golden
