Each scholarship is for $1000.00 per year for four years of study in the field of professional fores try, or a total of $4000 each. This is the 10th consecutive year that the company has offer ed similar scholarships to out standing high school graduates in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia. To be eli gible for this scholarship an ap plicant must be a resident of a county in which Continental Can Company operates. In addition to the above schol arships, Continental Can Com pany will for the first time award two $1000 graduate fellowships to outstanding graduating foresters. The applicant must have graduat ed from an accredited school of Forestry. These awards are being made to encourage qualified in dividuals to continue their fores try education in the fields dp Forest Entomology or Forest Pathology. The student selected for these awards may choose the graduate schools at either the Uni versity of Georgia or North Caro lina State College. Also for the first time the company will aw ard two $500 senior scholarships. These awards will be given to two outstanding seniors, one at the University of Georgia and the other at North Carolina State College. These awards are given to encourage qualified seniors to further their forestry education in the field of Forest Entomology and Pathology. In announcing the scholarships and fellowships, the vice president of the company said, “Our forests are one of our country’s greatest resources, they must be managed and protected. For the past ten years we have been granting scholarships to outstanding high school graduates in order for them to enter and study in the field of professional forestry, to insure that this re source is wisely and properly managed. If our forest lands are to continue to contribute to the economic needs of the people of this country then we must strive to find new ways of combating the ever present insect and dis ease problems that we have in our forests. We feel that by offering these senior assistantships and graduate fellowships that we will encourage qualified graduate for esters to study in the Forest Ent omology and Pathology fields.” Rate High In Competition Choral and individual entries from Newberry schools at the Northern District Choral Festival held at Presbyterian college last Friday brought many high rat ings to Newberry.

Main Street Newberry ‘ I «i 'll IIHtlllliltiiiJiiil Cotton Planting Time Draws Near Our cotton acreage will be less than 5000 acres in Newberry this year. All the more reason we felt that every effort should be made to increase yields on those acres we do plant. A bale per acre has been our goal for a good many years. Now we must make at least this much per acre to make any money out of cotton. Any yield less than a bale per acre now-a-days just amounts to “swapping dollars” with little or no profit involved. Most cotton farmers already know they’ve got to use around a thousand pounds of fertilizer in cluding side dressing to make a bale per acre. We won’t discuss that too much. Right now let’s concentrate on getting a good stand and keeping it free of grass until the crop gets off to a good start. This means using the best quality seed avail able and make certain they have been treated to insure against seedling diseases that can cause loss of a stand. Control of grass and weeds by spraying with pre-merge chemi T cals such as Karmex or Chloro- IPC should be considered. At a cost of $2 to $3 per acre, this practice has really paid off for many farmers during recent years. Don’t be in too much of a hurry to plant cotton. Cotton will not grow in cold weather. Since good seed are scarce this year let’s wait until soils warm up before planting. For getting a quick growing stand, cotton should not be planted until soil temperatures at a 6 inch depth have reached 60 degrees for 3 consecutive days be fore planting. We plan to start taking soil temperatures this weekend and will keep you posted on how they are running. Plan to carry out a complete insect control program this year. We’ll have more on that subject at a later date. Grow Corn With Minimum Cultivation A common saying these days about growing corn is that “The best time to plow com is before you plant it.” Using chemical weed control this can certainly be come true on most farms. Several methods of using dif ferent materials can be used for •freed control in com. Pre merge spraying with 2,4-D can be done broadcast immediately after planting. This should be followed with a lay-by spray of 2,4-D to catch cocklebur, morning glory or other broadleaf weeds. Two new materials Simazine and Atrazine may be used either as broadcast sprays or in bands directly over the row at planting time with good results on both grass and weeds. Finally a lay-by spray with 2,4-D in Nitrogen solution can be used at lay-by time for grass and weed control. If you plant much com for ei ther grain or silage you will want to use one of these methods of chemical weed control. We’ll be glad to furnish details on either method to those interested. Plant Coastal Bermuda Now We want more Coastal Bermuda set out in Newberry county. And now is the time to do it. Don’t wait until we may have a dry spell. Coastal needs to be set out when there is a “high season” in Seven Services Are Planned For Good Friday •Beginning at 12:05 P. M. Good Friday, Newberrians will have an opportunity to attend any one of seven continuous 20-minute ser- the ground and can expect rain within a few days. Holding t he roots too long and setting them out too dry has accounted for most of our failures to date with Coastal. Remember too, be sure to leave a tip of the rott or stolen above the ground. You can’t bury Coastal and expect to get a stand. Why do we like Coastal so well? Because it makes more grass— fast! and it’s response to fertili zer staggers the imagination. The more fertilizer you pour on the more grass you get. It’s tripple- threat grass too. Can be used for either hay, grazing or silage. We like it’s potential for hay espec ially well. As we’ve mentioned before, you can’t buy seed to plant Coastal. Have to set out the roots or “sto- lens” as they’re called. Stolens are available here in Newberry county and other nearby places. Also custom planting is available. Try to get yours set out at least by the middle of April. ] vices at Central M°thodist church, j according Rev. Robert E.

SENATOR STRO HURMOND Reports PEOPLE A Choice For Americans THE RAIDS carried out by Cuban exiles against Castro and Russian communist forces in Cuba have inspired a reaction of official displeasure from the United States. U. S. reaction has been expressed in both ac tion and words. The action has been in the form of prrests of some Cubans in the U. S. sus pected of participating in the raids. Verbally, the U. S. has officially characterized the raids as “irrational.” THE ACTIONS TAKEN by the U. S. may have less effect on the Cuban raiders than the raiders themselves have on the combined Castro-Soviet military grip on Cuba. The raiders, so far as is known, do not operate directly from U. S. soil. Those not arrested have announced v their intention of continuing their anti-communist raids. VERBAL EXPRESSIONS of displeasure unleashed by U. S. officials against the Cuban raid ers may, m the long run, have a far graver significance than the official U. S. actions, for they will surely be interpreted as an indicator of U. S. policy toward all those who rise up in arms against their communist captors and rulers. THE CUBAN RAIDERS have been labeled “irrational” by State Department spokesmen. However badly the actions of the Cuban raiders may conflict with real or imagined U. S. in terests, the charging of Cuban raiders with “irrationality” ill becomes Americans, of all peo ple. CUBAN REFUGEES have lost much, including their homes, their jobs, friends, loved ones, and above all, their liberty. Political asylum in a foreign land is no substitute. Having lost virtually all else, is it “ir rational” for them now to risk their lives, even against hope less odds, when there appears no other hope that their country will soon escape the terror, hunger and captivity of com munist tyranny? After all, it is a fact that no country which has been taken behind the Iron Curtain has ever been freed, and the U. S. has never sup ported any movements toward liberation. THE CUBAN RAIDERS are by no means the first men to gamble against seemingly hope less odds to gain liberty. Almost 187 years ago, other men, against almost equally hopeless odds, undertook to free their country from foreign tyranny, and to this end, they pledged to each other their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. To American patriots in 1776, there was no other honorable course. So it may seem to Cuban refu- ge THE da CUBANS ARE NOT alone in their plight, however. Millions in eastern Europe, in the Balkan States, in Korea, on the mainland of China, even in non-Russian areas of the USSR itself, are suffering from the same tyranny. There are those among these peoples, who may again reach the limit of their endurance and conclude that they have no other honorable course but to rise up against hopeless odds. WOULD THE OFFICIAL re action of the U. S. Government to such an uprising be condem nation for “irrationality” ? Were the uprisings in East Germany in 1953 “irrational”?. Was the uprising in Hungary in 1956 an example of “irrational” con duct? Both these events caused a crisis in relations between the communists and the free world. According to our policymakers, had the U. S. actively supported these uprisings, or even threat ened to interfere with Soviet efforts to crush the uprisings, there would have been a risk of escalation into general war. For those who participated in the uprisings, the risk was already total—and most of them paid with their lives, either in the fighting, or in the executions which followed. FOR THE U. S. to align itself with the aspirations of captive peoples for liberty involves a risk. It has been and is official U. S. policy to discourage “non evolutionary changes” in com munist-held countries in hope of minimizing the risk of war to the U. S. It also keeps us on the defensive against the con stant efforts of the communists to continue extending their tyr anny world-wide. CAPTIVE PEOPLE all over the world will recognize in the charge of “irrationality” against Cuban raiders the U. S. policy of minimizing the risk — to Americans. Indeed, it may for them be the “convincer” that captive peoples can never hone to gain American support for their liberty hopes, and trigger against communist rulers upris ings born of the belief that the future holds no better odds for throwing off the tyranny of com munism than the present. At some such point, all Americans, and not just their policymakers, must face the sober choice—to minimize the risks to ourselves, or like our ancestors, to pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to the cause of liberty.
