C- State College, Raleigh The 48-page publication, pre-, pared by two agricultural ec onomists in the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture's Bureau of Agricultural EconOnriics, follows a previous study on "Father-Son Farm Agreements." In a brief Introduction, D. S. Weaver, director of the State Farm Management Extension Committee, says: "In present-day agriculture, it Is becoming more and more ad vantageous for fathers and sons to farm togather. An atempt to work out a satisfactory family agreement for the operation of the home farm should result in a search for the best solution to the existing problems." He adds that "Case Studies of Father . Son Agreements" will provide valuable refrence ma terial of the' actual experience of others. ? * ' Death Of Cope Ruled Accident A corner's jury Fcbru.Tr>' 7 ruled that Henry A. Cope of Bessemer City came to his death by accident. . . An inquest into Cope's death was held at the Bessemer City town hall, conducted by Gaston County Coroner W. G. McLean. Cope died several weeks ago af* tet he was found unconscious on the Gastonia - Kings Moun tain highway where he wa? working as a flagman on the new highway for Ncal Hawkins Construction Companv. Dr. Craig Jones of Kings Moun tain and cshelby, who examined the victim and performed the autopsy, told the jury that Cope suffered a brain injury, cerebral hemorrhage, and that there was a soft place on his temple. The physician said there was no other bruises on the body. Cope possibly could have received the head fracture if he fell as a dead weight to the pavement the doc tor said. Thomas Everett Odom, anoth er flagman who Was working several hundred yards away at the time Cope fell, said he saw his co-worker stiffen suddenly and fall. Odom told that Cope was on his stomach with bis face to the left when he reached him. W. E. Sanders of Gastonia told the jury that he was driving past Cope, about eight feet from the victim when he saw the flag man drop his flag. As he contin ued on he next saw Cope, throu gh his rear mirror, on the pave ment. Sanders said he went on to park his car where he was work ing on another road project a short distance away. Sgt. J. E. Mosteller of the state highway patrol gave statements that were made to him by rela tives of Cope, who said the vic tim had suffered "fainting at tacks" since he was 10 or 12 years old. The statements aiso quoted relatives as saying that doctors had diagnosed Cope's ailment then as a blood clot and said he would need a brain op eration before he could recover. Highway Patrolman C. E. Cap peM said he first heard of Cope's fall when it was reported by pa dio as a hit-and-run case. He was on the lookout for a car and license number described as ihe; j liitand-run vehicle. lie located the Sanders car whore it was parked on the road and which f i i the description of the car for, which he was' looking. Capell Detective E. H. Groves, and oth er officers examined the vehicle i and said that there was no evi jdenCc that the Sanders ca: ; struck .Cope. Nw dust or mud on the vehicle was disturbed, fhey ?aid. The car driver sajd that he was: certain that no object protruded from his vehicle to strike the man. The other flagman con firmed this view since Odom i said that Cope fell after the oar passed him. Then? was conflicting tcstimo ny as to whether or not Cope's; cerebral hemorrhage was on ! the right or left side of his head j The examining doctor said the I Grease Job $1 - Oil Change $1.75 WITH 5 QUARTS OF GULF PRIDE World's Finest Motor Oil King St. Gulf Service FLOYD QUEEN.

The Executive Sec retary Of the North Carolina Motor Carriers Association, J. T. Outlaw, trtade this statement to day in announcing the North Car olina's participation in the Na tional Courtesy and Safety Pro gram of the American Trucking Association, Inc. "For February we are stressing the importance of knowing and obeying traffic laws," stated Mr. Outlaw, "not only for our own people, but for the benefit of the motoring public as well. "The professional truck driver has to be familiar with the traf fic laws throughout the territory in which he drives -and they in clude a lot of detail which doesn't concern the average passenger car driver," Outlaw continued. He said he felt certain that it was to the motorist's own l>est interests to get acquainted with basic rliles governing all traffic in his home town and the surrounding area jrt which he drives frequently.
