No More Extension
Os Conservation
Reserve Contracts
Chairman George Dykes of the
Brantley Agricultural Stabliza
tion and Conservation Committee
announced that Conservation Re
serve contracts which expire in
1960 or later years are no longer
eligible to be extended for an
additional period of years.
Previously, contracts entered
into for 5 years or less have been
eligible for extension up to the
maximum of 10 years upon appli
cation filed with the county ASC
committee at any time before the
original expiration date.
Mr. Dykes said the extension
of contracts is being stopped at
this time because of the fact that
extension of a contract has the
same effect as a new contract and
would require the expenditure of
additional Conservation Reserve
funds. Under present legislation,
no new Conservation Reserve
contracts may be entered into.
The only exception to the cut
off on extensions is in the case
of contracts calling for tree
planting for which seedlings are
not available. Such contracts must
be extended one year for each
year seedlings are unavailable.
Mr. Dykes said the present rul
ing has no effect on the period
of existing contracts. These will
continue in accordance with con
tract terms.

RECENT EVENTS have served
to focus attention on the paradox
that, while the United States has
no source of information inside
Russia, the Soviets have free ac

through the small, but militant,
Communist Party, U. S. A.

and even more of a menace to our
Republic.” He pointed out that
the election of ex-convict Gus
Hall, a Russian-trained revolu

that he would take up arms to
overthrow the United States Gov
ernment, as General Secretary is
proof that the Party has elimi
nated its factionalism and placed
its leadership in the hands of “the
same corps of hardened, disci
plined, veteran Communists who
feel that Moscow represents the
final goal of all of mankind’s
hopes.”
ALTHOUGH THE 200 dele
gates attending the Convention
met behind closed doors, Mr.
Hoover was able to present a
comprehensive report on their de
liberations and decisions. He dis
closed that they voted to launch a
membership drive, to step up the

increase circulation of the Party

Man at Still
Went Thataway
Says Officers
The white man at the liquor
still ran like a deer, jumping
bushes and fences as if he had
wings, and the two state revenue
men just couldn’t keep him in
sight. He just plumb got away,
according to sheriff J. Walter
Crews who saw the man jump a
wire fence without touching it.
The liquor still had been locat
ed between Hickox and Hoboken
near the old Hoboken road
Thursday, June 9. The two state
revenue men, W. W. Davis and
C. A. Davis, went into the woods
with a walkie-talkie, leaving
sheriff Crews and his deputy
C. T. Stephens on the road to try
to catch the still operators when
and if they tried to escape by the
road.
The state officers shortly told
the sheriff over his radio that a
white man had run from the still
and was headed his way. The
sheriff and deputy saw the man
dart from the woods but he spot
ted the waiting officers and
turned and jumped the wire
fence and disappeared.
At the still the officers found
a small set-up of copper still and
barrels for mash, ail of which
were destroyed. Up to Wednesday
no arrest had been made in the
case.
The state revenue officers and
C. T. Stephens, deputy sheriff,
seized more than two gallons of
moonshine liquor in Nahunta
Saturday, June 11, and arrested
James Medlock, colored, who
was charged with illegal posses
sion of liquor, according to
sheriff Crews.
'Miss Georgia to
Present Awards at
The FBI Chief noted that “one
of the bitterest disappointments”
of American Communists has
been their failure to make any
significant inroads among the
colored citizens of the United
States. Smarting under that fail
ure, he emphasized, the Party has
resolved to give new emnhasis to
the rule laid down in 1921 by the
Communist International that
foreign Communist parties must
“devote the necessary attention to
propaganda and agitation among
.. . minorities.”

fluence. One delegate also pro
posed that the Party capitalize on
American juvenile delinquency by
providing delinquents “with a
place to go and with activities.”
IN THAT LIGHT it would ap
pear to be more than coincidence
that, shortly after the beginning
of the so-called “sit-down” dem
onstrations in the South, two of
America’s top Communists —
James E. Jackson and Joseph
North who are Editor and For
eign Editor respectively of The
Worker—hurried South in their
ostensible roles as newsmen to
cash in on that unfortunate issue
for Moscow’s benefit.
Whatever may be said for or
against the ill-fated U 2 reconnais
sance flight over Russia and the
attendant diplomatic blunders of
the Eisenhower Administration,
Americans must not allow the
furor which has resulted to blind
us to the machinations, propa
ganda and opportunism of the
enemy which we have within our
own borders. As Mr. Hoover con
cluded in his report it is "apparent
that, more than ever before, each
American must maintain vigilant
watchfulness toward this Trojan
horse in our midst.”
