No Serious
Crop Quota
Violations
yery Few Excess
Plantings Found,
and These Errors of
Measurement
Workers active all over the country
In measuring tobacco and cotton
crops to determine the degree of com
pliance of growers with their crop re
duction contracts signed with the
Federal government habe found so far
no serious violations of the contracts,
it was said today at the office of
County Agent J. W. Sanders, who is
directing the work.
While the work so far has hardly
more than gotten under way on a
large scale, the committees measuring
acreage have found that in most in
stances the growers have planted
slightly less than their quotas. In the
few instances where there have been
excesses, the amount has been only In
small fractions and apparently due to
mistaken judgment as to the amount
of land put into cultivation in the
given crop, it was said.
Some 35 workers are engaged in the
measuring process, and they receive
$285 per day for their services, fur
nishing their own cars and gasoline
and oth'M supplies necessary. It Is
expected that several weeks will be
required for the compratlon of the
job.
Compliance with the contracts has
been found to be general on farms
that have been visited. The glowers
not only are receiving benefits from
the government for acreage rentals,
but they are living up to their pledges
to the best of their ability, the inspec
tions thus far made indicate for Vance
county. f

M. L. Wood was given the contract
for doing the repairs, tn» price being
$261. He was the only bidder for the

Mr. Morris Wants School
Put On Raleigh Highway
In a vigorous statement of his views,
Henry T. Monis, prominent merchant,
in a signer', statement toi*ay, advocat
ed location of the new Henderson high
school on the national hignway south
of the city opposite the Gary home
place. Refe; ring to restrictions im
pased by the county commissioners in
theiv do lid resolution that the new
school must be v’ithin the city limits,
he suggested "if necessary, extend the
corporate limits’’. His statement in full
follows:
“There is 1 c doubt that the com
mittee named' t o select a site for the
high Echo i is having a l ard time.
If they select a site in East Hender
son then West Henderson will kick. If
they select a site in South Henderson
then North Henderson will kick.
“I do not know what the committee
has done toward selecting a place and
it is a most impoftant proposition be
fore them, Regardless of where they
put this building, there will be a world
cf howls.
* I am going to make a suggestion
ebove my own name as to where I
think this building should be put. If
you go out on the road to Raleigh just
iieyond the Durham and Raleigh Rail
road you will come to a large level
field between the Railroad and Hill
Top Service Station No. 2. This is. as
you wil note, almost perfectly level.
A beautiful location for a school build
ing, a business concern or anything
else.
“You can buy property out there, in
my opinion, much cheaper than you
can get it inside the corporate limits.
; As far as distance is concerned, the
distance will not be any greater for
a good many people who live in Hen
derson.
“As stated above, regardless of
where the building is put, some of the
children will have to ride. In these
days it is not good principle for them
to walk to school. They must all ride.
“Therefore, I recommend without a
single regret that this committee con
sider the above proposition. I have
with me a good many citizens of Hen
derson.
‘ If necessary, extend the corporate
limits
