EROSION CONTROL
WITHJIP CUES
Excellent Opportunity Pro
vided Farmers Under
New Regulations
College Station, Raleigh, March 29
.—An excellent opportunity for North
Carolina farmers to reduce erosion
cn their farms at the same time they
are reducing their Cotton and tobac
co acreage is provided under the
marketing quotas of the new farm
bill, State Coordinator E. B. Garrett
points out.
Farmers in the eight erosion con
trol demonstration areas in the state
are finding that erosion can be most
'effectively controlled cultivated
fields 'by retiring the steeper, more
erosible, and less productive areas to
strips of prennial hay crops, thus re
ducing th*eir acreage by eliminating
row crops from portions of the fields
where erosion presents the greatest
problem, he said.
Acreage reduction can also be com
bined with erosion control by retir
ing steep and severely eroded areas
to trees and by the development of
permanent pastures, where more
woodland and grazing land are need
ed by the farmer.
Eroded and unproductive field bord
ers, especially where cultivated fields
adjoin woodland, afford ideal loca
tions for strips of perennial plants
and shrubs which will provide food
and cover for wildlife and control
erosion at the same time.

and nearly half of the freighters that
ply the northern route, and were
caught in the ice last autumn, are “ex

The resolution attributed “blunders”
to the inactive and conceited attitude”
of the Sea Route Administration. The
revelation obviously was prompted by
the plight of three ice-breaker"! con

five months.

the legislature—in counties where the
total minority party vote in the gen
eral election is so small as to be hard
to divide by two without giving ;
fractional result.
Fees for election officials are tha
reason for this apparently ridiculous
result.
If there were to be a statewide Re
publican primary, every precinct in
the State would automatically have a
Republican judge. Without such a pri
mary polls only in such counties as
have local Republican primaries.
Wherefore there will be Republican
primaries in many counties in which
it is difficult to muster enough G. O.
P. members to man each precinct
with a judge. Because, be it known,
these election officials are paid and
no political machine is going to over
look the chance to get some of its
“faithful” close enough to the public
trough to do a bit of swilling.
So it can fee safely predicted that
in most counties the Republicans will
pick out the cheapest office to run for,
and enter candidates enough to make
the semblance of a primary contest:

Rate Differential
To Be Considered

the roads asking for higher intrastate
rates, and he also made no secret of
the fact that he believes they are not
entitled to the same increase as grant
ed by the I. C. C.
He pointed out that by raising rates
on a flat horizontal scale the differen
tial already existing against the South
including North Carolina, had been
made even more obnoxious than be
fore, because such an increase widen
ed the spread between rates in South
ern and Official territory.
At that time he flatly said that if
the rails asked for higher rates on
North Carolina shipments, this in
creased spread should and would be
taken into consideration. He declared
that such consideration had been
given previous requests and that the
I. C. C. has already held such practice
proper.
In other words, where the roads
have asked for a 10 per cent increase
such as granted by the I. C. C., thej
are going to get something—but it’s
going to be something less than 10
per cent. North Carolina’s Utility
Commission isn’t going knowingly to
increase the already terrific differen
tial against this State.
