Those Foolish UJS. Senators

aa Promotion

By HTLtLAM A. iiHIRES

EGGS How about a breakfast consisting of orange-egg drink, egg butter, one fried egg, one sci*ambled egg and four-ounce filet mignon? It s called an astronauts breakfast." but - as might be guessed it has more to do with egg promotion than with Project Mercury.

The tie-in is that the U. S. astronauts have two eggs for breakfast every rnoming. including the days they are to make orbital flights. The menus published for eventual flight to the moon also include two eggs for breakfast.

All this is mighty fine for an egg promotion program such as that carried on by the North Carolina Egg Marketing Asso-ciatioh which even answers its telephone with a jungle, bopst-Ing eggs.

The astronauts breakfast is a convention menu novelty W'hich will be tried first at a gathering at Tanglewood near Winston-Salem one morning in the next few days.

State Agriculture commissioner L. Y. Ballentine got in the egg promotion act. too, with a fancy egg breakfast in his Capitol Square offices the other day to circulate a slogan. One wont do. make it two eggs for breakfast during the summer. Gov. Terry Sanford ^ several weeks ago helped with a proclamation of North Carolina as the Good Egg State."

BUSINESS Eggs are good business in North Carolina. The state is one of the nations largest commercial egg producers. It ranks second in gross farm Income from eggs in aU the South Atlantic and South Central states. It is seventh in gross farm income from eggs In the nation. In 1960, this gross farm Income from eggs in North Carolina amounted to $71,225,000 im'. The farm;i'e' tail price spread was 17.9 cents per dozen resulting in an extra $19,149,359 on the 169,583.3.33 dozens of eggs marketed in the state that year.

In 1960, there were 42,770.340 dozens of North Carolina eggs sold to other states, bringing in more than $17 million above, that realized from local sales.

The indu.stry and state agri-. culture officials point to thus sizeable share in the farm economy and to the fact that the commercial egg business has grown at a terrific pace and is continuing to grow. Egg production in North Carolina increased by 62.2 per cent from 1950 to 1960.

North Carolina has th.'re of only four officially approved egg processing plants under federal grading and inspection ser

vices for egg products in the entire South Atlantic region.

In addition to direct trade and sales, the egg industry in tiie state also is related to the feed industry, hatcheries, equipment, paper and. box industry, lumber industry, motor freight and local labor. It is related to food stores and supermarkets, many of which are using North Carolina eggs exclusively.

PROMOTION The egg industry decided to keep the momentum going, and through the N. C. Poultry Council inc., voted two years ago to set up the egg promotion program through , an assessment and the Egg marketing association.

It is financed by a penny, per hen dressed commercially in the state, with- $46,000 collected from poultry processors by the commissioner of agriculture last year. It is administered by a committee of the Poultry council. and theres no question of which comes first, the chicken or the eggboth are important commercially in the states economy.

There are seasonal surpluses in eggs. Right now. theres an oversupply on mediums and small eggs. Theres more of a balance in large eggs and demand.

What promotions are employed? There is an in-store sales program, conducted by a specialist in eggs. She puts up special displays, gives shoppers hints about eggs, supplies housewives with recipes and gives egg-imprinted balloons to children. Male shoppers got good egg lapel tags.

There are special promotional ideas to exficutives of food chains and. independent retail outlets. Restaurants are furnished with tips and information on egg-menus and extra egg meals featurmg such items as egg omelets.

John ' Hamby, president of the N. C. egg packers and processors a.s.sociation. believes results are being achieved;

Something has really helped us move the increasing volume of eggs through the normal marketing channels. I think the egg promotion program has had a lot to do with it. I know of extra egg business it has been responsible for getting for North Carolina egg producers

Atwell Alexander of Siony Point, Alexander County, a mcmlier of the state board of agriculture said there is no question in my mind as an egg producer that this promotion progi*am is providing an e.ssen-tial part of the improved marketing program for eggs produced in this state.

East Carolina College To Change Our Skyline

It shouldn't be surpri.sing that East Carolina College, which has been constantly changing the face of Greenville for the past 55 years with iM growth and progress, is about to add further change to the communitys skyline with ,a seven-story building.

Like colleges in many other cities. East Carolina is in many respects the foremost industry in Greenville. Through the years its economic impact upon the community has had a direct effect upon the growth and progress of the city. It has changed (Greenvilles skyline in many respects both di-recily and indirectly.

With construction of the proposed new womens dormitory there will be a building on the ECC campus which will look down on the rest of Greenville, a structure that will be a landmark and a focal point of the citys skyline. While it will represent a new high point in building in Greenville, the new structure also represents a new effort by the coHege to conserve its land use. It i.s indicative of th'^ importance of land area on the campus as the college cqntinues to grow in terms of students and in terms of physical facilities necessary to accommodate more students. ______

The new tall building on the East Carolina cami],us i?Tndicative of a new plateau that has been achieved by both the college and the community as they have moved forward together to greater progress over the years.

Theres Tragedy Too, In Summer Week-End

Small Acts That Cheer

Summer week-ends in North Carolina tradi-, "^tionally have been a time for getting away from home to one of thje cooler recreation spots scattered in every section of the state. For some families the week-end outing begins on Friday and ends late Sunday evening, hor others it is limited to a few hours,on Sunday afternoon.

In most cases, however, the week-end outing, long or short, involves highway travel. For the most pari, also, it involves travel at the time most other week-enders are traveling . . . the peak period of traffic.

The most recent week-end was not a special one in North Carolina, it was just another summer week--end that saw literally thousands of Tar Heel.s seeking routine warm-weather recreation. It was also a week-end which saw 17 lives snuffed out on the highways of the state and another six in drowning accidents. .

Summer week-ends in Tar Ileelia are most pleasant, but they can also be tragic unless special care is taken to prevent accidents both on and off the highways. The toll of the past week-end suggests that greater care is needed on the part of every citizen of the state.

Views Changec. When In Govm

What with all the mayhem, di.scourtesy and downright cus-.sedness one can witnes,s on the highways these days, it i.=; refreshing'^tb observe helpful action occasionally.

Thus it was that your columnist spotted a .soft drink bottle carefully set on one of the white lines separating lanes at the We.st End Circle intersection recently.

Of course, anyone who has ever driven an automobile knows what running over a bottle cans do to an expensive tire.

It wasnt long before a car loaded with a family came along in one of the lane.s. The father saw the bottle. He pulled alongside and a son hopped out. He picked up the bottle and the family was on its way.

Then Sunday an elderly couple pulled to the .^ide of the road on Charles St. The out-of-town pair got out of the car. viewed the tire and pondered what to do.

The answer wasnt long in* coming. A second car pulled in behind them. A much younger man jumped out. offered his assistance and was soon

cheerfully busy jacking up the car.

Small acts by these anon-' ymou.s people: but they were exhibiting attitudes which could make our streets and highways far different thoroughfares of travel.

The college, by the way, already has Greenvilles tallest building, unle.ss I miscalculate. That would be Jones Hall, the first of the mens dorms to be built between Tenth and 14th Ste. It is five stories high.

Tom Webb and his office crew always manage to come up with a unique window di.s-play. Last week, for instance, they gave the window over to Made in North Carolina week and included a display of locally produced items.

Sharing the window with batteries from Union Carbide was a .sole item \\hose label proclaimed it to be made locally. It was a clear liquid in a half gallon fruit Jar. Could liave been white lightning. I wouldnt say.

A .seven-story building! Tliat might not be much for New York, but for Greenville it is a couple of stories higher than anything we now have.

I suspect this new womens dorm will be a rather towering thing in its place atop the

Othei Editors Saying. Another Measured Step

By FRANK CORMIER

WASHINGTON (AP) Pre.s-ident Kennedy is attempting one of the most difficult bridge-building jobs of recent year.s, and. so far, having very little success.

The President is trying to span the gulf between business and government, even as events in Wall Street and his owoi fiscal and economic policies cause the gulf to widen.

Unquestionably, one of the biggest obstacles facing Kennedy is the suspicion of the federal government shared by a great many businessmen. This .suspicion has deep roots and many never be dispelled, but it can be reduced. ,<*

Evidence of this was .supplied last Thursday in a little noted address at the Brookings In.sti-tution by Undersecretary of Commerce Edward Gudeman, a former vice president of Si*ars, Rof buck and Co. Guden^n dis-cus.sed goveniment-business relations.

If .someone had written this .speech foi- me two year.s ago. said C'-ud(man. "I would huve reiecled It. I realize now that when I wa.s part of top man-a;o ment of a major Anieiiran enterpi i.'^e.

A special advisory group of prominent busines.smen. tax at-toiTieys and accountants meets for. times a year with the commissioner of internal revenue to discuss broad tax problems. One such meeting was held last week.

A new.sman asked member.s pf the group to assess these meetings. All who were questioned agreed that the session had reduced their Own suspicion of IRS. They said the revenue service had shown a willingnes.s to accept suggestions. Equally important. it had demon.strated that questions of tax policy are re.solved only after thorough and rational di.scus.sion.

(The Charlotte .News)

With a pimdent eye on the trend of court decisions, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education has stepped up the rate of school desegregation.

With assignment of 413 Negro students to formerly all-white schools, the transition away from a racially segregated system proceeds in good order and good faith. The new assignments are wholly in keeping with the boards guiding concept since 1957, of keeping operation of the schools within the law- and within the hands of local officials.

This dual goal requires the new flexibility evident In geographic desegregation at Be-tliune School and introduction of an optional attendance arrangement affecting Dilworth Elementary and Isabella Wyche School boards may expect to retain control of assignment only so long as assignment policies are not condemned In practice as devices to maintain segregation based on race.

This clear trend in court decisions. the board has heeded but. signifiqantly, it ahso has avoided committing it.self to a single formula or a fixed rate of de.segregation. This fact reflects the boards appreciation of the many factors affecting the attitude of patrons toward .schools aiurof the varying composition of school di.'^trict populations.

The number of students a.s-

signed to desegregated schools may shrink considerably before a new school term begins. State law' provides an individual option for parents who object to their children attending school with children of another race. For its part, however, the board has taken a long step toward as.signment without regard to race. The step is timely, wise, and the best insurance possible as^inst having rigid assignment patterns imposed.

The years since the desegregation decision of 1954 have documented many times over the w'isdom of those communities W'hich have displayed initiative in adjusting to changed conditions. These communities have had time and freedom for local leadership to consider and act within the context of local conditions and problems.

The only condition specified by the courts has been that the time be used to divorce school assignment from race. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board, in our opinion, has, without any tendency to stampede, abided by the condition in a measured evolution of assignment policy.

Eight years after the desegregation decision, the board could not expect to continue a policy of token de.segregation. The token was one of good faith which in due course required implementation.

The boards decisions In this area continue to merit the community's support, tru.rt and understanding.

Speaking of college dorm';, your c 0 1 u m n i s t wandered through the third 500-man dorfn now' under con.'truction south of Tenth St.

Thus, one employs a new design from the two dorms In that area now in use. Prom the front, the architecture i.s nearly identical, but as you tour the building., you find It Is constructed in a U shfepe around a court.

There are no interior halls as In the olderdorms. Instead, an out.side walk runs along each of the four floors. Doors open at intervals along the walks. Each door leads to an independent four-room .suite. This provides living quarter.s for eight students. The suites are entirely separate from one another and each includes its own bath, facilities.

This and the propo.sed seven story dorm are striking examples of the changes now' being incorporated in college dormitories these days.

It used to be said during the 1930s that there can be no over-production; there can only be under-consumption. This was the National Association of Manufacturers explanation for the Depression in those days.

In a measure, there was some truth in the axiom but it does not fit our current picture because we are being drowmed by niternational overproduction. Factually, there can be both over-production and excessive consumption in some countries while others neither produce nor consume adequately. Generalizations do not fit the facts and figures. The so-called stockpiling was not started to set up reserves in times of plenty for times of war; agricul- . tural stockpiling started as a means for withdrawing products from the market with the object of keeping up agricultural prices. We then applied the same doctrine to minerals and other commodities but the government used the excuse of stockpiling for the next war. We are now so over-produced that if we were forced to sell or to dump our surpluse.s In world ifiarkets, even to rescue the starving as some propose, we could, wlhout much difficulty, start a universal depression; particularly in the currently prosperous-countries.

This has brought great fear to such countries as Canaria and Australia which require export markets for foodstuffs and to South Africa, Canada and Rhodesia w'hlch require export markets for metals and minerals.

But we are not the only over-producers. We not only over-expanded our owTi plant and equipment during World War . II and the Korean War, but we rebuilt the Industries of Japan, West Germany and other countries. We also aided the Com-munLst countries to^ establish and expand their industries, particularly heavy industries. The result is that we have created more manufacturers than the world can consume goods for a payment. Thus, we give away machinery not only to replace destroyed industries but to create new ones in countries which pever had any, diffusing the trade possibilities in known > markets on the assumption that other markets will become available;

It may be true that the time may come when the present world capacity for the production of steel, now about 465,-000,000 tons, will not be enough, for presently it is too much unless the United States or Soviet Russia undertakes the building of enormous public works like the great dam on the Nile, for which neither country will be paid because Egypt has not the money to pay. the Egyptian cotton Is not needed in such huge quantities as to meet Egypts obligations. The Free World capacity^ ^ 342.000,000 tons; for the Communist nations, 123.000.000 tons. .Commu--znist capacity in 1957 was 80.-000.000 tons; in 1961. 123,000, 000 tonsa startling Increase.

The question of over-production plagues the worker who is not being thrown out of employment because of automation but, in this country, either because of domestic over-production or because prices are determined internationally while costs are determined locally. thus making it difficult for the product of the American i^orker to compete with the

Strength For Today

By EARL L. DOUGLASS MOMENTS OF GLORY

When Jesus went up into the Mount of Transfiguration he took with him P e t^e r, James and John. They were going to behold something that human eyes have never before ^held and have never beheld innce. They were to see Jesus transfigured. The fashiian of hLs countenance was altered. His garments becoming radiant with a glistering whitene.ss.

He took the.se three dlsciple.s up into the mountain with him. When this circumstance is repeated in your life and mine, we agahi see as they did the glory of the Lord revealed. We do not. of course, see such a supeniatural revelation as oc-cured on that particular mountain. but we do come to see and know the Loid, as we have

not under any previous circumstances. Remember that Peter, James and John were three weak, faltering individuals. Peter was later to deny his Lord. James and John were called the sons of thunder excitable men Inclined to violence". Jesu.s took them w'ith him to the Mount, and there they saw him transfigured.

Visions and revelations (rf the Lord are not just for choice spirits: 'they are for people like you and me. The Lord will come to those who are humble and of a contrite heart and who are eager to see him more plainly, to" understand him, and to be constrained more perfectly to follow his will.
