HILLSBORO, TEXAS
From the Jamestown Founda-
tion of Virginia comes a rc-
iminder of the power of seeming
jly small events.
ft was just 350 years ago that
|a few tiny seeds changed the
[course cf history. The seeds were
jaf tobacco and they grew into a
aleable civp. which saved the
j Tamestown colony,
j Since Jamestown was the
j first successful English colony
do survive anywhere in the
jwcrld, our future might have
Ibccn different if it had failed.
Success meant to the O'd
World that the New World over
jthe trackless Atlantic was not
only habitable but held economic
I promise It was assurance that
other settlements would follow
land could flourish (Pilgrim feet
touched Plymouth Rock eight
years later i. It marked the firm
rooting of the English traditions
|of freedom and representative
government in the virgin soil of
Sthe richest continent whose
j limits were but vaguely known.
It marked the start of our for-
eign trade
When John Rolfe planted and
cultivated and harvested his
|first tobacco crop in 1612, 'he
colony of Jamestown was search-
ing desperately for some medium
of trade, and the colonist had
considered abandoning what ao-
peared to be a forlorn adventure.
But the first Virginia tobacco
to reach England was an in-
stant success. By 1618, tobacco
from Jamestown was a healthy
.competitor for tobacco from
Spain, which had enjoyed a
world monopoly. Jamestown’s
I shipments in 1618 were twice
those of the year before. Amer-
lica was in production. An in-
Idustry was established — an in-
dustry that today supplies an
important share of the nation s
tax revenue, that is an import-
ant lactor in the livelihood of
17 million Americans — includ-
ing 700,000 farm families in 21
states — and supports the ac-
tivity of 700 manufacturing
plants in 32 states, which make
tobacco products that are en-
joyed around the world.
Perhaps there is some sort of
moral in the fact that the to-
bacco seed is one of the tiniest
known to botanists — and to-
bacco culture among the most
arduous of all agricultural pur-
suits.

Suppressing A
Slow Killer
There's new hope in this era of
fast-paced living for the mil-
lions who suffer from what doc-
ifors call (“essential hyperten-
sion." Just how many Americans
are afflicted with high blood
pressure is estimated at well
over five million, and the need
for treatment indicated by the
comment of the medical journal.
"General Practice," that “even
a little hypertension is a dan-
gerous thing.” The significance
of this remark is underlined by
an extensive study of life insur-
ance health statistics which
showed that — generally speak-
ing the higher the individual's
Hood pressure, the shorter his
life span.
Although often mild at first,
high blocd pressure usually gets
progressively worse. For this
reason, many medical authorities
believe hypertension should be
controlled in its early stages, be-
fore it has caused permanent
damage to the blood vessels,
heart, kidney or brain. The first
sign of hypertension may only
be an abnormally high blood
pressure reading during a rou -
tine physical examination. This
fact argues forcibly in favor ot
frequent check-ups by a physi-
cian
At a recent medical meeting
on hypertension conducted by
the New York State Society of
Internal Medicine, physicians
reported on a new drug for the
early treatment of high blood
pressure. This centrally-acting
pressure lowering agent, Capla,
was described as the first drug
1 to reduce high blood pressure
! without impairing the normal
j regularity mechanism of the
body and with a minimum of
side effects.
Although the cause of essen-
tial hypertension still eludes
medical scientists, it is en-
couraging that progress is being
I made to control the disease.
Furthermore, the advent of this
new agent promises to open the
way to a program of preventive
medicine in high blood pres-
sure, curbing its dangerous com-
plications and lengthening the
lives of its victims.

jjll j Keep Good
Records For
Tax Purposes
Taxpayers who kept good fi-
'nancial records last year should
have no trouble preparing their
196! federal income tax return,
Walter H. Hill, Administrative
Officer of the Waco, Texas office
of Internal Revenue Service,
stressed this week.
Complete records are espe-
cially important, the IRS rep-
resentative said, to taxpayers
who elect to itemize deductions
in filing.
Accurate expense records are
especially essential if a tax-
payer’s return is selected for
audit.
All records should be retained
for as long as they may become
material in the administration
of any internal revenue lev.
Another advantage, ne de-
clared, is that taxpayers witn
good records can complete and
mail their federal tax returns as
soon as they receive their W-2
withholding tax certificates, thus
eliminating last-minute searches
for,such papers as the April 16
filing deadline draws near.
