Americans Near
Limit On Taxes
Winston-Salem, N. C., Feb. 2.—
‘The American people, and their i
industry and business have just |
a“6ob^ reached the limit' as far as
taxes are concerned," H e r m a n i
Cong, president^ of Cone Mills Cor
poration, Greensboro, said here to-
night.
‘Excessive government expendi-|
tures, unreasonable high taxes, and |
inflation'’ were described as three!
related threats to a healthy eco-.
nomic system by .Cone as he ad-.
dressed the winter meeting of the 1
Piedmont Section of the American
Association of Textile Chemists and
Colorists.
‘Excessively high taxes remove j
the incentive necessary to keep our
economy dynamic and growing." he
said. ‘‘Capital is. becoming alarmecf
and a great many people, who in
the past hove been willing to in-1
vest their money towards building j
up American industry, are being
driven to tax free securities for the
investment of their savings.
An increasingly powerful and
complex government is tinkering
with the structure that has made
America the envy of the people of
the world,” Cone declared. "Gqv- i
eminent today has a hand in every- j
body’s business and another in ev- ;
ery person's pocket. Through a tax- j
and-spend policy, developed long j
before the Korean war came ^lohg. j

Farmers Are Warned
About Use oi Poisons
Respirators Advised
For Dusting Operations
This summer American farmers
and gardeners will use about 1,000,-
000.000 pounds of bug-killing mater
ials, much of it containing para-
thion,- especially those highly ef
fective on the destructive leaf
aphid. ...
Insecticides containing parathion
are used a great deal by commer
cial fruit producers.
Now produced by several chemi
cal companies, parathion in its
original state is a brownish liquid.
But as a commercial insecticide it
belore the Korean war came ^iQhg, r
government has succeeded ir\ weak- j
ening our traditional concepts of J
initiative and independence.
There is a great danger that the j
attitude of the American people;
will drift from that philosophy ex-1
pressed in the Declaration of Inde- j
pendence and the Constitution. It
may well swing to the belief that |
the general welfare requires a strong !
central government with practical-;
ly unlimited powers. If it is per-j
mitted to do so, we can write off ,
America as a nation of freedom and!
opportunity to all,” he said.
•'Capitalism is simply the techni
cal name for the economic system
we have in America. Actually it |
provides the real welfare state. It is:
a setup of political and economic!
organization which has been able!
to achieve progressively high stan-i
dards of living for more and more 1
people. It is the system that does
provide best for; the general wel-'
fare," he said in concluding.
Respirators should always be
worn when handling parathion-
base Insecticides. Protective
rubber gloves also should be
used since the toxie chemical
can be absorbed through the
skin.
New Fords Here
Attract Large
Crowds At Baldwin's
The new 1952 Fords went on dis
play here Friday and Saturday at
the showrooms of Baldwin Motor;
company. Large crowds called dur- 1
ing the two days to inspect the new
models shown for the first time,
and each lady attending was pre
sented a red carnation by the firm.
Included in the new models are
the Crestline Victoria, w r hich ac- 1
cents Ford's new styling features
and presents a sports car appear-i

construction and wide safety glass

lines. Ford Coachcraft bodies are:
introduced to the public for the
first time on the 1952 models. They
feature completely new all-steel
struetune. Welde'd steel joints and
new moldings around windows and
windshields help seal out weather,
dust and corrosion. Wide-opening
doors are emphasjzed. Coachcraft
bodies are available pn all 18 Main

els. including three new station
wagon and utility types, the two-
door Ranch wagon, the four-door
Country sedan, and the four-door
Country . Squire. The Coachcraft
bodies introduce center fueling to
make the gasoline filler pipe equal
ly accessible from either side of the
car. This eliminates the filler flap
on the rear fender and adds usable
luggage space. The Ford Courier, a
new spdan-delivery . unit which
jdins the 1952 truck line, provides J
about 100 cubic feet of loading
space and offers a choice of six
power combinations with two en
gines and three transmissions.
comes in powder form to, be used
for dusting or mixed with water for
spraying.
While highly effective on insects,
parathion also is extremely poison
ous to humans. That is why some
kind of respirator is recommended
for farmers and growers spraying
cr dusting with insecticides contain
ing the chemical.
A light weight and not uncomfort
able- r-espiratorr-wi tbam olffedrub-^
ber facepiece has been developed
by the Mine Safety Appliance com
pany of Pittsburgh which will fill
the needs of most farmers.
Proper equipment on the modern
farm is essential if the farmer is to
protect himself, his employees, and
gain top production.
Farmers of the Future May
Find TV Indispensible
Tired of trudging to the barn to
check up on the cows and chickens?
Soon you may be able to make
such nocturnal inspections by flip
ping a switch and looking at a tele
vision screen.
Scientists of the Radio Corpora
tion of America have unveiled an
experimental laboratory model of
what could be the television inter
com of the future, It could save
farmers many ,a step when they
hear a noise in the bam or chicken
house at night.
Key to the apparatus is RCA’s in
dustrial TV system. This compact
equipment uses a home-movie-size
camera, which could be installed
in any convenient spot where it
could overlook the interior of the
barp. The camera’s sensitive pickup
tube' can see in almost any light
the human eye can.
The picture is transmitted over
several hundred feet of cable to a
master control unit no bigger than
the smallest table-model TV set.
Install the unit by your bedside,
hang up your coat, 'and prop up
your feet. Television may be a farm
fixture before you know it.

and need of greater production,
the Harroplow makes it possi

Farmers Added to List
Of Critical Occupations
Farm operators and assistants
have been added to the list of criti
cal occupations by the labor depart
ment. Secretary Brannon points out
that the list of critical occupations
is used as a guide in the selection of
manpower for armed services. This
addition will aid selective service
in considering cases of key farm
workers needed to produce record
agricultural supplies for the nation's
defense.
