Tins unusually mild winter is cmsmg tnanv of the older people to turn back the pages of. tune when this section of the country ex perieneed its coldest weather: John Goble, of Iredell county, comes for­ ward with the statement that the winter of iS 8 t was the severest he had ever experienced before- 01 ince. He recalls that there was f big snow Christmas week aud that, his was followed about a week later by another_big fall, some of u remaimng on the ground -the fot lowing three months. I was.’tending a water mill:.,at chat time with an undershot wheel,” he said, “ and would have to chop it loose every morning, aud the pond was frozen over so deep that when the boys came to mill tbev would skate over the pond, ai d it was so cold that the needles froze on the-small pine trees aud he blackberry briars all froze and: the young grape vines froze and the bark on lots of the timber cracked open on the north side. “ There were lots of thequail and other birds perished that winter for want of food. As to the old saving that after a severe winter there will be a good crop year, I won’t, agree on that, for the summej; of 1881 was the- dryest year JL ever saw. T herew ashardly anything made that year. Itw a sso d ry that the grown cotton bolis shed off and lots of the small dogwood trees died the latterp arto fth e sunmer. There wete several good-sized branches that went dry and lots of wells went dry. “ The Catawba Riverthat winter froze over so you could just walk over it almost any where except - on very swift shoal.-'—Twin-City Sentinel.

As an indication of how a coin ' tnunity may take stock of itself and put both money and men back to work, the method employed - by Rochester New York, is both m-v teTestmg and exemplary.

Getting Money Out. W e’ve.all been talking now for about, two vears are more on how tv gel money out of the old. socks, bureau drawers and from over the rubers, but the money does not seem to hear the call. About the time we think that public confid­ ence is- about to sneakrup and get a stranglehold on old man depres­ sion another dmgbusted bank closes and it’s all off for a while. I have a. hunch that it is going to be a long time until people have the'confidence in banks thatjisnec­ essary in order to get all of this hoarded cash back into circulation, and vou can blame them. In the first place the -public has realized that the checking of banks books for discrepancies m account by government hank exanmiaers is not what the public bad always been led to believe. Right in ..oui own midst the public’s: money en­ trusted to a trusted institution was literally carted away and vet the auditors never once found any ir­ regularities.. _ If Mr. Hoover really wanted to do something to restore confidence let him have enacted the necessary machinery tor making every-depos- itor absolutely guaranted that he would received on demand one per­ fectly good United States dollar for every dollar deposited 111 any bank, and then let the bank be . responsi­ ble to Uncle Sam. -In case out gov­ ernment auditors fail to -catch the negro in the wood pile when short­ ages are being made in banks, then let the government bear the loss, and not the .depositor. That, and that alone will restore confidence. —Statesville Record. Hanson the First Presi- den*. - The author o f “ John Hanson. Oar First President,” Seymour Memyss Smith, suggests that since this is the bicentennial of the birth of Washington the American peo pie pay a meisute of belated at tention to the Matylander, who, and not Washington,, was the first President of tne United States. This is a bit of history., of which most Americati.citizens aie quiete unaware. ■ Hanson was the first Presidet of the country under the Article of ,Confederation underwhich the new nation held together until the more organic and effective Constitution was.adopted.. Smith, in his book which appeared yesterday,gives,the 'documentary evidence to show that Hanson was elected President Nov ember 5, 1781, "of the United States in Congress ” ■ : W ashington recognized Hanson as his supeiior officer, Smith shows in bis book It was to Hanson, the President, that Washington ad ■ dressed his. appreciation of the thanks of Congress extended hrm because of'his victory at Yorktown Suppose the Articles Of Coiiferdera tion had worked: Hanson’s name might today signify much thatj as it is, is- attached 10 the name of W ashington.—Twin Citv Sentinel Some Lincoln Philosophy 'I shall not-try to read,- much Iers answea, ali-the cri ticpnjs of me and -my associates.

T Under the above title appears 11 C tiller’s .of February,2nd an articV by Arthur Tram that every , Ameri­ can citizen ought to read who has a - lowed his mind to-be disturbed Ij the infamous libels that have ben ouhlished m a nook called "Thi Stange Career of Mr Hoover Unde, Two Flags” and.the substance or winch has been broadcast thnugl - out the countrv on' Ihe pages nf ■ Iisreputable newspaper called Thi American Freeman. :>Mr. Train is a lawyer as well' as i writer and: he has.answered the libek with a lawyer’s calm marshalling of. facts so conclusively and irrevpcabh that the men responsible for then- should be overwhelmed with publn contempt and seared with the scorn of all decent people. In the beginning Mr.. Train calls attention to the fact that bv th. author’s own admission the bool was offered to “some of the bigges' publishers in the country and tnei mrned it down.” so that in order ti­ ger it published he had it to taki it to one Samel Roth, abas Williarr Faro Inc., a publisher and dealer I-, obscene literature who has served two prison terms—a fact which Ir. itself should put all readers upor their guaad,- And then he takes up the charges one by one and demon­ strates their utter falist.v. In a brief newspaper article there is nos soacc ■even for a summary of Mr Train’s devastating answer, which occupies many, magazine pages, but a few tvpical esses may be.cited. There is the charge, for example that Mr, Hoover ai d all associated with mm in the work of: Belgium re­ lief. ’necame .ri.h by working for nothing.;” which is answered by _cit- i ig the fact that everv pennv of the vast sums expended in this work, nearly a ' hdlion ' dollars, passed through the hands of a firm of certi­ fied accounts of European reputation who published . full reports ' now available to any one who wishes, ti, see them ; and which were passed upon by-official?of the British and French governments and found cor­ rect. • • There is.the charge that “ the Bel­ gian releif was organized to keep Germany in food” and that huge quantities of food. Sent to Belgium' found its way - into "Cermany. ' -To which the answer-is that alf:the foi-d wmch went into Belgium was hanc- 1 d,bv the Belgiums themselves, ano the G ivernments'.which after thV: first year of the war. contributed most of these supolies. Great Britian, France and the United Slates, each’ maintain tne most careful supervi. Sion through theirfdreign offices aid jeciet services, as well as byVmploy­ ing theinown expert accountants-on checking attd.approving the reports. To say:, that ? Herbert- Hoover. ;used -the supplies sent to Belgium {to keep Germany in food,,.is rqoivalent to charging that the countries at war. with Germany conspired to send food to ti.eir enemy. The truth is of course, that Mr. Hoover riot only made no meney out of the Belgium' relief organization but that he paid, all .his own expenses while,-engaged in the work, that he gave up oppor . turn ties ta make a great fortune, m his own business in order to/engage in it: and that thought his genius for- organization it was made, the vastest and most efficient, charity’ the world has ever known. In re­ cognition of this work King Albert, by removal degree: on August I, 1918; ‘-"in appreciation of his inesti­ mable services,” conferred upon,Mr. Hoover the unique title of “ Fnerd of the-Belgium Nation.” , Was King Albert foaled? Si Bassmg over ,. a score of other charges?, all'as comuletely exploded as,this with .respect: to Belgian re-, lief: we come to one that has been m ore" widely, published than any, 01 her-and'that .is the most infamous of.all, the,charges that Mr, Hoover, was directly responsible for. and managed the,.importation to the Transvaal of many thousand Chmese that in doing^o he virtually imposed upon these,harmless people the most cruel and TiesrtlesB'-slavery. - Therp is not an atom of trulh in this accur 1 > jatmn.

I Jonas is Not a Candidate If'bank credit isn’t loosened after! ajl the prizes inserted under it, the j c's^e would mdeed-appear hopeless. j Cast fall, at the instigation of Pre- j stdent Hoover, a big corporation was formed bv bankers and intend­ ed to loosed things a bit. Then Congresshuriied through the Re construction Finance corporation, which is now operating. Another prize, a bill designed to enable fe- derabl reserve banks, is expected to come law within 24 hours. The re­ construction corporation will lend money to various corporations and agencies and $5 0 0 0 0 .0 0 0 of its funds is held exclusively for farm loans. There are also various other helps provided— one being enable to enable the land banks to extend time for payment of land loans. The latest measure will increase the credit of banks with federal reserve banks. It banks can get money where they haven’t been able to get it the past year or so, on securi­ ty that hasn’t been acceptable—and that’s the idea—the hanks will be in position to help individual bor­ rowers who can put up approved security, all of which should help. The greatest hindrance to inanv in­ dividuals, however, is that they have only real estate security isn’t considered Al when there is no market for real estate. Banks can’t afford to He up much monev m se curities that can t be marketed if the marketing btcomes necessaiy. That put more banks out of busi­ ness down this way than any other thing. But all the prizes should at least get some air under the depression and that will help. I: isn t best to expect too much right away. Farmers who wish to buy fertizers for another crop can get govern­ ment loans for that purpose, and to buy seed, which may help them if they are Unable to . arrauge their own credits. Yet a little while and the loosing may be m evidence but it isn’t wise to forestall it. Give 11 time.—^Statesville Daily, Drive For Jobless Laud­ ed By Stevens.

The National Grange, the big farm organization with members in every state in the union will hold its convention this year in Wins­ ton Salem, November 1 19, The Grange has an approximate membership of 8 0 0 .0 0 0 and it is said there will be more than 5.000 delegates in attendance in Winston- Salem. This is one of the largest gatherings ever to be entertained in the city an in addition to the hotels it will be. necessary no doubt for private homes to open their doors for sleeping quarters. The last meeting of the national body which was held in New Yoik City, 17,000 delegates were in at­ tendance but this was due to the tact that the Grange has a big membership in New York State and the meeting place was easily accessible. Many able speakers including Chairman Stone, of the Farm Board Governor Gardner, Dr. Clarence Poe, editor of the Progressive Farmer, and others will be heard during the meeting.—Union Rep­ ublican. Just Politics. An interesting bit of news trickles though the press the past week to the eSect that a brother of Mrs. Hattie Caraway, U. S. Senator, from Arkansas, had been arrested charged with violating the prohibi­ tion laws. The story related that the brother of the distinguished woman Senator had been caught with another man, operating a still 20 mi'es from the birthplace of the Senator. A few months ago a brother-in-law of President Hoover was arrested when be was found holding a sack that contraband li­ quor and a great todo was made over it by the Democratic press and some of them to blame the Presi­ dent witli the affair just like they are blaming him with everything else under the sun. The Hoover inrlaw was acquitted when he show­ ed the court that the bag was hand­ ed him by another pa:tv as officers swooped down on the place of busi­ ness where he happened" to be W hether the Caraway in law will be able to get out of his alleged trouble we do not know but it is safe to say that any news of the outcome of the affair will be sup pressed bv Democratic newspapers. A Democrat of course can do no harm.—Union Republican. For Clay Williams’ Scrapbook. A traveling salesman told us this one about the eastern Carolina farmer who sold some tobacco for which he was paid the pitiful sum of $6 . Addressing the man who paid him, the tobacco farmer said: “ You know what I’m going to do with this $6 ?” ....... ■ The man didn't know. “ Well,” continued the farmer, “ I’m going to buy me a gallon of liquor. I ’m going hotrie and build me a fire. I ’m going to sit down in a comfortable chair and prop my feet up. And the next time I xSay ‘gitap’ to a .mule., it’ll be sittin’ there in mv lap. ’—Buck Beasley ia Monroe Journal. The map who makes his- saving plan-second to everything else ^jll never have much saved up. ItvBs only when the rest of our expendi­ tures are made secondary to a sav­ ings plan, that much progress'is made. Iron will and bull dog resolution are not much' of an asset to a man unless they are accompanied with a sufficient amount of good judgment to tell him when to use them and when not to tise them. When Willian Henry 'Harrison waged his “Tiopecanoe and Tyler Too” campaign away back in 1840 it was the genera) impression that 110 such thrilling political episode would ever occur again. Then, in i8 6 0. AbrahamLincoln was elected President and such ex­ citement as the country never had seen before. Finally, William Jennings Bryan threw th e. coughty in an uproar with o.ratorv that hadn’t been equal ed since the golden days of Greece People marveled -at the interest dtir ing the years he was a candidate. Not to be outdone, Teddy Roose velt walked rough shot into a cam paign in 1912 and ripped the coun trv asuDder. Interest was not lack­ ing that year either. Sensing that the country need a little political stir, Al Smith hurled a brown derby into the political bee hive in 1928 and succeeded in stir ring thiugs up in grand style. It was thought that year such interest probably never would be -repeated. But the world hadn't a good look at ‘Alfalfa Bill” Murra'y at that time. So far as many people were concerned. Oklahoma hadn’t been put into the map. This year there will be plenty to look at and likewise lots of looking and listening.- While the “ Happy W arrior.” who is better know as Al Smith, and the “ Beaver M an,” better known as Herbert Hoover, are busily-engaged in growing a crop of political sass this spring and early summer, it is apparent that “ Alfalfa Bill” Murray will be out with his big scythe. And things are going to be popping. But that will be fine. Maybe it will cause the people to forget the depression and business will have a chance to get normal while the peo- p’e are busy watehiug the political stir.—Twin-City Sentinel. Ups and Downs. A man from tip in Goose Creek met a man from down near W in­ gate. in Monroe, and'they chatted along the lines of-depression. One sat down on the front end of a car and he had so many whiskers be had to peep through them. The other was red and robust and clean shaved. Butiboth talked depres sion. Theysaid they had no money not even to buy dinner with, and at that time one pulled from his pocket a snuff box and shook his lip full. And I looked over at’ the other man and ue had bis mouth full' also. But they both had cars and both had license and they both had snuff and feed for a year; and that beats the fellows who walk a- rouud town wearing stiff collars and high hats.—T. B Laney, Mon­ roe Journal. Had Rather Loaf. A call came a few days ago from a cotton mill in South Caroline to the secretary of the Chamber, of Com­ merce, at Hickory, saying the plant was in need of weavers, twisting hands and loom ’fixers. Hickory is Hickory is located in a section where there are numberous cotton mils and if it is Iike other places there .have been going up wails that the people cannot get employed. Just how many applications do you suppose were received in answer to this South Carolina appeal? Justnine no more no less. Is it possibie that this un­ employment cry is being overdone ,and that.when the people are.offered work they refuse fo take it and pre­ fer to be fed by charity or the gov­ ernment? There are some people evidently too proud to work In a cotton mill but they do not seem too proud to demand a dole from the I government.—Union Republican, j We heard a man-complaining the • other day about the neighbors who j had lied about him,.. .We just won- 'dered if he expected them to tell I the truth. A persusal of the state highway patrol’s report for January causes wonderment comparable to that which has been expressed on seve-a occasions as to Greensboro’s admir- 1Stration of the municipal traffic code.. During the month, it is shown -by official figures,. patrolmen reported 21.315 law violations but aarested only 750 persons. Certainly these 750 violators could not have repeat­ ed to the point of com ni'ting the iofirnitely larger number of offenses which the patterrolers noted? It is not necessary to go into the tabulat­ ed report which. list separated the ears inspected, the number of me­ chanical deficiencies found and the 4 270 motor vehicles caught hogging the road, to arouse one’s curiosity as to the great difference between the number of law violators and the Dumber of arrest®. If 21,315 persons, or whatever the number may havo been with allow ance for an accumulation of offenses, were found to have violated any pre­ vision of the law, why were only a mere handful singled out for arrest? Haven’t highway-patrolmen learned by this time that a warning has lit­ tle or no effect upon an offending driver, if accident records of the patrol itself are .to be accepted as evidence? Af the driver has violat­ ed the law, has the patrolman a right to become a judicial officer and pass upon his guilt or innocenci?. Are patrolmen entirely too susceptible to sweet-talk for the good of public safety? If, by the patrol’s own re­ cords. 21,315 traffic law violations wet e r.'ported and only 750 persons a m ste I, what became of the ( Send­ ers in the 20,565 cases where no -ar­ rests were made, who dismissed them-,-told them to toddle along and be careful next time, by what sort of discretion and by what authority? How many were 1 Senders who had been cau'ioned been cautioned b<- fort? How long is it going to be be fore thefutility of adon’t do-it-again attitude towards I a w violating motorists is to be realized by officials os the patrol? To these questions the Diily News makes no pretense of being able to supply answers, but it nevertheless harbors a fear that strange practices of police authorities, particularly desk sergents who dismissed charges instead of sending them to court, in traffic law enforcement here, are not corfined to the city of Greins boro but may obtain on a state wide bassis with subsiqu°nt disrespect for existing statutes. —Greensboro News And If He Paid Cash Rent He’d Be Welcome. With no intention in the world to cast reflection of the good county of Lee, the editor casually mentioned seeing a new rail fence in that coun­ ty recently. L'i, the Sanford Jour­ nal gets on his -legs and bow-wows that Lee is nut a backward county, but Chatham, and that if C trnwallis should again come through Pittsboro hp would recognize it as the same old place. Possibly; but we are cor - fident that if Cornwallis should lead an army through here again, he couid find plenty of vacant bank and store buildings for baraacks.—Cha­ tham Record. Democrats Open Cam­ paign in Church. Albemarle. February 2 4 .— Stanlv county Democrats were rallying to day to support the party follow it g an enthusiastic meeting of the pre ciuct committeemen and party lead­ ers at First Presbyterian church. A dozen or more county leaders spoke to the militant group assem bled in the church' auditorium. Praise for the splendid record in- tax collections, retirement of the county’s indebtedness, and the fine manner in which incumbent officers have handled the county’s affairs was sounded bv nearly all of the speakers. Chairman R. R. Ingram of the county executive committee started the meeting by bitterly' flaying President Hoover for his failure to fulfill promises made during the campaign of 1928. .We -found the above, shocking piece of news in the Salisburv Post.- We had to read it twice before we conld realize that such a thing was possible in an enlightened and Christianized country. In our al­ most 40 years of newspaper exper­ ience this is the first time we ever remember to have read of a politi cal party opening their campaign iu a protesiant church. If this is not dragging partisan politics into religion, we hardly know what to call it. We wonder what the Re­ publican members of the Albemarle Presbyterian church thought about this matter, provided this church has any Repuhlicau members The dispatch failed to state whether the pastor of the church was present. We would he glad to know. It is impossible for us to imagine what would happen here if 1 he demo crats would open their campaign in the Preebyterian rhurch,'or-if the Republicans would open their cam paign in the Baptist church. Wt couldn’t print all that would be said and done without landing in jail or in a cemetery.' When politi­ cal parties'meet in a church and cuss out or flav the President of the Ur.ited States, we think it is time to reduce our foreign mission con tributions and increase our home mission collections. We Hope So. J. F.

This means a big fruit crop, he said. -If the smoke gots crooked or remains close to the ground on Feb.

The Don’t Care Kind. When you hear a fellow spouting about he cares for nobody and no­ body cares for him, I can show you a fellow that parts his hair In the mid­ dle and combs it back slick and sticks a pencii behind his ear-and petends to be an atheist. His hair grows down his back to the end of his back- bbne, and the farhily^doghas got him ,whipped for he does wag his tail to show his appreciation.—T. B. Laney, Monroe Journal.

He could lit­ erally steo into that man’s sox if ho so desired. Upon hearing of favorable action upon his nomination at W ashing­ ton Mr McCrary looked iu a re cess of his files and brought out a worn and faded pair of red cotton socks, evident Iv several sizes too large for his own feet. These were given to him by William Cicero Hammer, for eight years district attorney, prior to that solicitor of the judicial district then including Davidson, Davie and Randolph, and who was representative in Con­ gress from the seventh district at his sudden death in 1930. Mr. McCrary said that he and Mr. Hammer had been touring the judicial district in their buggies and had been burling hot speeches at each other. The campaign was nearing its. close as they drove a- cross a ford in South River near Cooleemee. The river had been swoolen by recent rains and the wheels of the McCrary buggy drop­ ped iu a washout and water rushed up into the vehicle, wetting the Republican candidate almost to his knees. Mr. Hammer, following closely behind, had hetter luck. Thew eather was cold and Mr. McCtary said his teeth were chal- ■ering as he got up 011 the bank. W heriupon Mr. Hammer reached into a hag of -personal effects and brought out the red sox, worn at heels and toes and darned with black thiead. Mr. Hammer, won the election, but Mr. McCrary kept the sox as a pleasant rnotnen- to. Some of his friends here have urged that he weai them when he takes the oath of office. Robert Reynold? Is .

UJU JOHN OEESIE UNIVERSAL STEEL LEVER HARROW In breaking clods, smoothing up a seed bed or, weeding young crops, you are always prepared to do a good job when you have a John Deere ’ Universal Harrow on your farm. A big reason for the wide popularity of the John Deere harrow is th a t its teeth don’t work loose or become lost. T he exclusive John Deere tension lock holds each tooth firmly to the notched U-bar. The Universal, is the ideal spike-tooth harrow for orchard or vineyard work because th e end rails prevent the tooth bars from catching on trees or vines. A spring’ relief on-’each lever perm its the harrow teeth to pass over roots, stones, or other obstructions w ithout being damaged.

MAfeCH .9, t9^2 Shall Foreign Goods !‘Take Our Markets. ^While the Democratic House of Representatives has contented it self with passing a tarriff bill that makes no change in anv existing schedule, and while the Democralic leadtr on the floor of the House has gone on record as declaring that io reduce our tariff now would flood our country with foregu made goods, other leaders of the party, having no legislative responsibility, continue to harp on tlie threadbare theme that it is necessary for us to lower our tarriffs iD order that foi- eign nations may be able to pay their debts to us in goods. W hat these leaders are saying in eSect is this: If Argentina owes us money we must let her ship into our markers corn and beef in order to pay her debts to us. If Czechoslovakia owes us money theu we must let her send in shoes to sell on our markets in order tliat she mav pay If Mexico owes us money then she shall be permitted to ship in live cattle in order to pay the debt. Aud so all the way round. But what is haopening to our farmers and manufacturers and stock growers while tlii^ program is being put into eflLct? Isn’t it per­ fectly clear that if Argentina ships 2 5'million bushels of corn into this country that ex ict am Jtiiit of corn is lift on our farms witl.out a market? If Czeclioslovakie sendi, in 10 million pairs of shoes are not American shoe workers deprived - of the labors and pay for that quan­ tity of shoes? If Canaria and Mexico drive 5 0 0 ,0 0 0 head of cattle across our borders are net our cattle m arkets glutted to just that extend? Itishighlydesiraole that other countries iqdebted to us should pay those debts.' But certainiy some other way can be found, as some other way always has beeu found in the past, for our foreign debtors to discharge their obligations with out depriving American producers of their home markets. Mr. Train Defends Mr. Hoover. Detriot News A rthur 'Train, New York author And attorney has just discharged a task which will meet with the ap proval atid warrant the thauks of all patriotic citizens. A littei of scurrilous nooks at­ tacking the probity bt the President of-the United States and purport ing to expose his unfitness for of fice, has issued from obscure press­ es io the last year. The most con­ spicuous of these —one named “ The Strange Career of Mr. Hoover Under Two Flags” —Mr. Train has . taken apart for Collier’s Magazine. W ith irrefutable figures and auth entic documents he has demon strated the utter falsity of its al­ leged facts, its interpretations of actual events and its poisonous gen­ eralities. Chapter by chapter, he destroys its allegations with solid and unimpeachable testimony. A President is peculiarly helpless against assaults on his piivate life. A president is peculiarly helpless against assaults on private life. He can not abandon his duties to prose- cut every knave that defame him; and he cannot afford 'to use the power and prestige of his office for purposes of 'private vengeance. Moreover, his typical assailant is a nondescript whose prosecution is be neath the dignity of a president, however much the weak minded and' morbidly curious are impressed by his libels. ■ Perhaps it would be a good thing if in each administration a few men, disposed as Mr. Train has been in this.; instance,> were to constitute ’*iSrei£selve^fn6nds ot thef^resi- dfeot,” to refute the more copspi : cuous and egregious particulars of his/life.. 'Harsh criticism of the Pieiident as a.public servant is a cross that goes with the office. The right of free speech entials the right to criticize freely the acts of the President in office.. Indeed, there have been oceassons in the last fif teen vears when the right should have, been much' more tieely exer­ cised. But there is a very- definite line ol cleavage between attacks of a riolitical critic and the private seaidal of a caterer to that rabble which longs to : see a high figure brought to earth and is willing to believe the most preposterous lies to that end. - Prosperity In Atlanta.

W ethink itis a poor policy to subscribe large sums of money for unemployment and then pay top wages for two or three days work in a week. Better employ more men more days per week and get tnore done. _________ — High P oint—Summing up th. main trouble with this country it his own case, Mike Clarke Jug town, Randolph county, philoso pher, stated in a letter to a Ioca' banker: "I spent all my cash it 1928 and usei my credit in 1929 and traded up all my future wage- on installments in’ 1930. so ban times caught me in a bad shape last fall.” His quaint rustic philosophy re garding hard times is revealed in the letter which follows: ‘ There seems to be so much talk about so-called Republican prosper­ ity, I believe ’tis my duty to write my views on the same and help analize the situation as far-as pos sible sc’s we can make up our minds we had auto change our ways of living and so forth. " I have taken my own case,- for instance. I see my mistake and manv others have acted likewise I bought a Ford instead of a farm and it is worn out. but the faim I figured 011 is still 0. k. I invested in a radio instead of a cow, and the radio gives static instead of milk. I am feeding four nice hounds which answer to the names of Red Wing. RedSlobber 1Jake1Bayrum, instead of five pigs. I had our pi­ ano tuned instead of the well clean­ ed out. I spent all my cash in 1928, and used my credit in 1929 and traded up my future wages on in­ stallments in 1930, so hard times caught me in bad shape. “ If Idiad spent my last $ 1 0 for flour and meat instead of gas and oil I would have been 0. k. I built a nice garage last year instead of covering my barn and I loafed on a mountain two weeks instead ot being in the pasture fixiug it so’s my cow~wouldn’t get out, but she is dry and mortgaged to boot for- two blankets my wife bought from an agent instead of paying the preacher. ‘T m on a cash basis now but ain’t got no cash. I am tied to the end of my rope and the mart I am working for is busted on account of nobody wouldn’t pay him and his cotton won’t sell ’cause nobody won’t buy cotton clothes. All the gals wear slick silky underwear right here in our cotton patches. I had $ 4 saved up for a rainy day— it turned dry and I spent the $4 for two inner tubes I tried hard to make both ends meet with a turnip patch, but whetT I got turnips ready to sell every­ body else was selling turnips for nothing, and the market was glut­ ted. I am worried plum to the boue and my wife’s kinfolks are coming over next Tuesday to spend two weeks. "W rite or phone if you hear of any relief from the government coming down my way, and I am willing to be either a Democrat or Republican for a few weeks if that will help any. — "M IK E CLARKE.” And These Be “Hard Times” Too.

Judge Harwood was in effect taken from the Superior court bencn with a warrant —the war rents have bem served on him after her reached Raleigh in response to an u geiit call from the governor. When he received the call he was presiding in Richmond county Su per'or court. A few days ago the Wake coun ty grand jury returned a joint in­ dictment against the Harwoods, father and daughter. H ete’s cau-e for prompt action. A judge of the Superior court is under serious charges. The integrity of the judi­ ciary and the honor of the State ‘ is involved. The action against the daughter has Keen standing for near a year. The indictment against Judge Harwood lias just been brought, there is no good reason ■for further delay This is one case in which justice should be speeded not only for the honor of the State but as a demonstration that justice can not be impended by the favor­ ably placed. It is a serious charge against a judge of the Superior court. It isn’t simply the honor of one man tj.at is iuvolved hut the honor of the bench, in effect of the whole people! It should be shown, as quickly as the court machinery can move -and it has been demon­ strated that the machinery can at­ tain high speed when then opera­ tors are amiad to go straight ahead that the charge is well ,founded or that it isn’t. Unneccessarv de lay will further impair public faith in the integrity of the judiciary— which faith is none too strong as it is. The opportunity is at hand. We are to see whether the State can speed as it did—aud properly—in tne Gant case.—Statesville Daily. Hooveir Stock Rises.

The farmers of Rowan county, during the past few weeks, have shipped five solid car loads of Ko­ rean lespe-dtza seed to the middle West O her car loads and less-than- car. load lots, embracing tens 1 f thousands of pounds of seed, Have been shipped from Mecklenburg, G - barrus, Stanly and lridell counties. At first fllnsh this would appear to be cause for gratification. Certain it is .that the growers of these seed have made more money on them, a- side from the improvement of the soil that has resulted in the growing of the crop, .than they w< uld have made from cotton or almost any other crop, but that is only one side of the picture. Four of the counties montian a- -bove produced this year nearly 4, OOO OOO pounds of Korean Iepedi za seed the largest production of seed these counties have ever erjoyed. This amount of sied is sufficient to plant 160.000 acres of land The acri- age of grain in North Carolina at the present time is approximately a mil lion acres and a grain field is the ideal seed bed forlespedeza. The tragedy of ft is that such a huge proportion of these is being shipped into other sections, to bene­ fit the.farmers and increase the pros­ perity of those sections, when six times this amount, of seed is desper ately needed in our own section. Ir is true that the acreage in North Carolina this year wili be probably much more than doubled. Thous ands of farmers who have never [planted this remarkable crop before -ife planting it this year for soil im­ provement, forage and pasturage, but ! he total acreage in the state will be only a smalt part of the total acre­ age we have in grain, whereas every acre of grain should by all means have Isspcdizi planted on it. A rapidly-increasing number of farm ­ ers. in fact practically all who have had any experience with lespepeza at all, are following this practice. T liebell punch never scores a clean knockdown.

The issue •1 esen'ed by these bills was not one 'f feeding hungry citizens. Tne -ffurt of those who offered the mea- nres to have it appear that those vho oppose them wnoid let men, women and children starve and freizp to death is rank nonsense. The bills were defeated simply for the reason that a m ajority'of the people, believe that the relief of in­ dividual distress in various cities and states is the concern of the people if those cities and states and not of he Federalgovernment Therehave been other periods of business dis­ tress when relief of the unemployed wa3 a necessity, but always heret'- it has been taken for granted that tie situation would be met by the I ical communities. Thi 3 is the first time in the history of our govern­ ment when a serious demand has ieen made upon the Federal Trea­ sury for such a purpose. And now that it has been made it is comforting to those who under­ stand the proper functions of gov­ ernment that it has been emphatical­ ly defeated. No matter how it might be Aistin*uised under the fictions of I ians to lhe states or as an emer­ gency measure, an oppropriation from the Federal government to be used for individual relief would haye . had all the destructive effects of a d de, setting a precedent that soon would have.put an end to all local re* Jief ag- ncies and taught the people to look to the Federal treasury whei • ever any great need arose, One of the finest things about A. merica is the quick and generous r> • sponte the people of means always make to an appeal for help in any ease of need Nobody has ever beeft •lilowea to starve to death: in any A* oierican community, nor has suffer* ing of any sort,long-gone unrelieved, It is preposterous now to assume that there is any city; county or state in the Union that is either unwilling of unable to handle the problem of Its >wn poor It is difficult to resist 'he conclusion that politicians whb -iave undertaken to substitute a huge ippropriation from Federal treasury for the metho s worked out by the generosity of individual citizens which have met the need of every emergency in all our history, -have been influenced less by their concern for the needy than by their itch for a place on the front page of the newspapers.

Further developments in connec­ tion with the mysterions death of Willie Beauchamp, whose body was found in the woods near Advance last month, were revealed Thurs­ day with the arrest of Tommie El­ lis, Jr , about 25 years old, who was arraigned before Magistrate T. I. Candell and bound over to Diivie superior court on a charge of iniir der. Information leading to the arrest and preliminary hearing of Ellis was supplied the officers by Dick Bailey, who is being held for complicity in the Beauchamp uiur der. Bailey signed a statement in which he accused Ellis of the m ur­ der. Testifying for the state at the preliminary hearing Thursday afternoon Bailey amplified bis s>atemeut and described the details of how hesaid the tragedy occurred. Bailey said be was in company with Beauchamp when the latter removed a jug of liquor from a hay stack hear the farm of Charlie Ward, southwest of Advance, on the evening of the killing. Beau champ, he said, hid the liquor bv the side of a log in the woods, and the two walked to the road and started toward Advance when thev met Ellis. Asked by EHis if he, had any liquor, Iteauchamp replied that he had a gallon in the woods, according to Bailey. At this juncture the three pro­ ceeded into the wood'*, and Beau champ produced the liquor. Bail­ ey said Ellis requested Beauchamp ti aliow him to take the liquor in pa\ inent of a debt which he claim­ ed Beauchamp owed him. When Beauchamp refused to comply with the request, Ellis: drew a gun, the witness testified, forcing Beau champ to back deeper into the woods. When Beauchamp appar ently was in the act of picking up the jug of liquor, Ellis fired, ac cordirg to Bailey. Ellis then walk­ ed Jir^ t (indirection of vauceTt he wiuiesstsaid. Bailey testified that Ellis- threat­ ened to kill him if he revealed what had occurred and for that reason he had not told the story before. HUis emphatically denied the charges brought against him by B?ilev, declaring that he was not in the vicinity of the crime on the night Beauchamp was slain. He introduced three witnesses in an effort to establish an alibi, but Mag istrate Caudell ruled there was stif ficient evidence tor probable cause and ordered thatsEllis be held with­ out bond. Ellis is the sixtti suspect arrest­ ed, and it is hoped the solutioa of mysterious murder which has shocked the whole county is draw­ ing near. Three men, John Hud­ son, W illie-Myers and Ray Beau­ champ have already been released, but Bailey, Earl Hudson and Ellis are being held. AU six of the young men are reported to have been boot­ leg acomplices and two of them have plead guilty to . manufacturing whiskey with Willie Beauchamp, deceased.

In thelast eight months Uncle Sam spent exactly one billion, seven hundred and eighty-one million, seventeen thousand four hundred and ninety-six dollars more than he took in' That’s right much money to be classified as a deficit: It is more than three times the total yearly expense of the United States goverment thirty-five years back. This should be interesting to you, because you will be expected to contribute your share toward wip­ ing out this deficit. Not only that but at tne present pace another eight months will see a proportion­ ate amount showing in red—and you will have to take care of that too. Uncle Sam is living more than five million dollars per day beyond his present income, and yet we’re making a daily pilgrimage to the old chap, with .outstretched hand and itching paim.

Hoarded Money Coming Back. The Citizens Reconstruction Or­ ganization is the nation-wide com­ mittee formed upon the suggestion of President Hoover with Col FrankK nox at its head for the purpose of drawing hoarded money out of hiding and restoring it again to the channels of trade. The ot ganization already is active in prac tically every state-and is carrying on a campaign to which the mosl grafting response has been made. "The eagerness on the part of the tbs people everywhere thoughout the land to join in a recent public statement, “ is more widespread and spontaneous than whea the first Liberty Loansin the World War were issued. ’ In o rd e rto induce those who have withdrawn theii money from the hanks to restore i! to circulation it is necessary of course to provide them with some investment the security of which cannot be questioned. The plau. therefore, is to have the Treasur. issue securities in small denomina tions bearing a rate of three to three and a half per cent interest. Such securities can' be cashed en­ tirely l'qiiid and yet they afford a fair) v good investment for those who wish to retain them, while the motley invested in tlieai can be im­ mediately diverted into the cannels of business. The proposal to over­ come harding, which had been practiced to'such an extent as ser iously to menace banks even in our largest cities and which h^d result­ ed in the withdrawal, it is estimat­ ed, of not lesstban $1,5 00,000 from circulation, when presented by the Presiden was received in some quarters with much skepticism. "How can a man who .has with drawn his money from a bank be cause he bad lost confidence in it, be induced to put it back into the bank again?” was the the most na tural question. Colonedl Knox and his committee seem to have found the way to make the money avail­ able and it is believed that that this particular crisis will have been over­ come within another week week or two. A Negro Preacher’s Plat­ form. (From TheLaurinburg Exchange) “ Put your faith in God. your family in the field, your. Foitf under the shed, and grow what feed you need!” This wa3 the advice the Rev. Sam Smith, well known Negro preacher of the Mount Olive section of North Cirolina, gave a regular Sunday morning dissertation recent­ ly, according to report that has hgjjh going the round'of the press There is nothing new in this preaching but the unique way in which the color­ ed parson puts it gives it added weight and. pungency.

" ‘You had better not count 01 iny fancv. price or even a remuiier itive—yes, I would say even ; hreka even price for cotton nex fall ” Mr..Blalock said. ■ There is lust about as mucl ootton in the world as there i' water in there Atlantic Ocean.” He said that estimates of tht acreage reduction now range fron 10 to 15 per cent, but that ven probably 10 per cent is the mort correct figure. Some economist- predict only a five per cent cut in acreage. ._ The co operative head pointed out that it is up to each individual cotton producer to reduce his cot­ ton acreage according to his own conscience and judgment. Plans suggested during the summer to limit cotton production by legisla­ tive action fell through when some of the cotton growing states would not fall in line with the Texas movement. The Amerrcan Cotton Co opera­ tive is composed of it state associ- tioris, representing more than 2000,- 000 members. Mr. Blalock is also general manager of the Norih Ca­ rolina Carolina Cotton Growers Co­ operative Association which has entered its second decade of service. KeepMore Men at Work Talk about wealth!

Green Milling Company F, K. BENSON,’Manager Mocksville, N. C- jJgjl I P S' S-- J / ZfBfeftAVIfeMedRft, Mea^XIttE, G. ^ c g & 'taa Unexpected Praise. Praise for President Hoover from the Hon- Jouette Shouse, executive chairman of the Democratic Nation­ al Committee, was hardly to be ex­ pected. And yet it has come. In a speech at Jacksonville, Florida, Mr Shouse paid handsome tribute to : Speaker Gardner in the course of which he said: j “With a majority of only five or, six. through the force of his person- J ality. through the qualities of his' mind and his heart through the pre­ cision of his judgment, he has been able to put through in a time of stress and trial the most remarkable program of constructive legislation that was ever enacted within the same period.” “The Most Remarkable Program of Construction That Was Ever En­ acted Within the Same Period,” True. Most true! But whose program was it? It was not Mr. Gardner’s It was not the program of the Democratic side of the House. It was President Hoover’s pro gram! The German moratinm; the Recor- struction Finance Corporation; the broadening of the credit base of the Reserve Bank System. There is the program which Mr Shouse justly declares to he the “ most, remarkable program of cot- structive legislation that was ever enacted within the same period.” And every item in it is President Hoovgr’s To be sure it could not have been enacted -without the sunport of Speaker Earner and the D-nncra- tic majority in the House, and no body would withhold the credit that is due them But could they have done ant- tbipg else? They had no program of their own Would they have dared go before the country with a record of opposing the only constructive program that was offered? The answer to that question is found in the reaction of the country to Speaker Garner's threat to cease further cooperation with Republi­ cans in enacting relief legislation un­ less the Republicans quit praising the President. That is to say, un­ less the Speaker and'his party can be given the credit for saving the country it shall not be saved! Is it any wonder that the press of the country meets such a threat as that with the rebuke it deserves? Is it any wonder that the friends of the Speaker,' amazed at his statement, are hinting that he was tricked into making it by a democratic .press a- gent who prefers another democrat for President and deliberately plot­ ted to clip Mr. Garner’s wings? But whatever be the plots and counter p ots. there stands the un­ qualified endorsement of the Presi­ dents program, by tho democratic spokeoman, as “The most remarkable program of constructive legislation that was ever enacted within the same period.” The Republicans are willing to let it stand at that. Mr. Mosesto Mr. Garner Speaker Garner recently declared that "President Hoover had led the country into the greatest panic in the history.” Commenting upon which Senator Moses said: “ Recailing the vigor -with which Speaker Garner once commented upon the action of the Suorence C iurt in the estate tax case. I mar­ vel at the moderation with which Mr. Gardner has now begun his formal campaign for the Presidency with the single and simple assertion that President Hoover bought on a panic. “ In order to run true to his an­ cient form, the Speaker should have added the charge that the President brought on the World War. that he loaned billions of dollars of Ameri­ can m' ney to Ejrope during a D - mocratic administration, that he brought about the unbalanced bud gets of other governments, that he made unsafe loans in Gatin America, that he responsible for bolshevism in Russia, that he engineered the eigh teeu revolutions which; have taken place in as many countries, that he caused the panic in Germany and the economic colapse in Central Europe, that he forced England off the gold standard that he tormented the Sino Japanese war, and thnt he is respon­ sible for the- over-production of coffee in Brazd. over-production of copper in Africa, sugar \n Cuba, rubber in India, cotton in the South, and wheat in Canada, Australia and the Argentine.” •a♦ *♦ti¥* I II SOIL IMPROVEMENT While Tobacco and Cotton are unprofitable, cut out J and improve the soil with a legume, such as Lespe- * deza, Clovers, Soy Beans, Etc. . \ - t We Specialize In These Seeds.

But if Prohibition causes more drinking, how can., repeal increase the quantity of grain used in dis­ tilling—Soartariburg Herald. The Other Side. Where is all this liquor one hears about being drunk? Who is drink ing it? These are fair questions. For several Lakeland people who attended the.rally at Fort Meade we inquired as to whether they had observed any drinking on the streets and barbecue grounds and one man with a wide acquaintance said he saw two men who had been drink­ ing. The others declared they had not observed. a single instance of intoxication. One of the higher officials of the Atlantic GOast Line, said that he had not been compelled to dis­ charge a man for drinking for tiiore than two years. He recalled being in Tampa on Gasparilla day and in that vast crowd through which he milled with other people, he de­ tected liquor on only one breath, he said. Any observer at a big public gathering will comment on the fact that little liquor is in evidence a- mong the spectators. In the days of barrooms there were always drunks and fights and communities always were fearful when the color­ ed people gathered in town for a picnic or o her celebration In those d iys no woman dared venture on the streets unless accompanied by a male escort. They say that bootleggers in this community are practically out of business Certainlv, when one of t ie gentry is occasionally pulled, he either takes a sentence in the stockade or begs for a few days in which to raise a fine of jSioo or more That does not indicate much prosperity among the blind tiger, element in Lakeland. Who then are the consumers of intoxicant liquors here and else­ where? They must not belong to the average run of individuals Who conduct themselves well oil such occasions. This is a side of the liquor, ques­ tion that ought not to be overlook- I ed by those who are anxious for. a! change in the status of prohibition.

C ,—Halifax claims to possess the oldest and building in America or England for Masonic uses, now standing, the Royal W hite Hart lodge house. It was built in 1769 and has been in use continuously ever since. The lodge was chartered March 2 t, 1767 by Henry Somerset, Euke of Beauford, and grand master of masons in England In the time before 1769 there is no history of any Masonic lodge building, as it was the custom to use taverns. Cd. Fred A. Olds, state historian, explains. The Halifax building is of wood,: 3 0 feet square and two stories high. Blacksmith Has Walked 30,000 Miles. . H ickory.—T. J.

Old papers for sale. Cheers For Judge Webb Cheers to Judge Edwin Yaies Webb. Speaking a ta luncb club meeting at his home town—Shell y — he judge ot the United States district court .for this district de- cl red for a cut of 10 to 20 per cent in federal salaries, which include his own, 20 per cent. He wou'd n it cut salaries of $1,000, or I. sr. The range is sufficient. "A s a fed­ eral employe myself-,” said Judge Webb, “ I am perfectly willitig for the cut and believe the judiciary as a whole would gladly submit to such economy.” H em ayoveresti mate the wit'iugness of the judi ciary, iudging the federal by the spirit that seems to actuate the North Carolina judiciary, which ruled in favor of itself in refusing to pay income tax. But let that be ds it .may. Federal officeholders generally have been almost unre­ sponsive to proposed salary cuts. None down our way have, offered to contribute soinetbing-along with we privates who suffer reduced in­ comes until Judge W ebbspokeout Give him credit for leading the procession, if there is a procession, which has not yet appeared. - But Judge Webb is willing, even if be stands alone.- So far from proposing to help, one North Carolina congressman; Abernethv of the third district, lias declared agaiDst reductions. He is thus quoted in a W ashington spe­ cial to the New York Times. I ’m against this salary cut. Peo pie are running.around wild every­ where. . Dow nin my State every thing is wild; even the cattle are running madly about. All they know is they are running against their leadership.” Abernethy has been listed as one of the congressmen who carries his wife’s name on the payroll of his clerk hire allowance, to keep as much of the money as possible in the family. W ith that he would noi be expected to appear in the role of reductionist of any money coming the congresstnan’sw ay. It would have cheered some of Congressman Doughton’s consti- stitiients much it he, in his stren­ uous Sght against the sales tax, had proposed cut of at least 20' per cent in congressional salaries and a reduction of cierk hire allowance from #5 .0 0 0 to $3 0 0 0 per annum to help make up the amount neces sary to eliminate the sales tax. H e1 may intend to do that. But so tar no North Carolina congressman has been quoted in favor of salary reductions.—Statesville Daily. No Hard Times Here. “ I cut loose from cotton 13 years ago,” said a Gaston Couuty farm­ er this morning. I found out it was a down hill proposition. I planted two acres last year and made a bale and a half. I have two cribs full of corn, enough wheat to last me two years, a smoke­ house full of meat, plenty of sweet potatoes and other stuff .to eat. I do not feel the hard times ” Vvhy should this man feel the depression H e’ has nothing to worry about. His land is still there; it has not shrunk like stocks and bonds. He had no cotton on . which to lose by falling prices. He has plenty of foodstuff and fuel; He is profiting by the low prices of the few com modifies whuh. he has to ouy. Truly, there ought to be no hard tiJies onThe farm of a man'. Ijjjg this.—Gastonia.Gazette. '7‘: Farming-AWayofLife Bachelor Biscuit. Baby Bonds For You. One of those new baby bonds is­ sued by the Government is • a fine piece of paper to, tuck away and vou can preserve it so much more safely than you can hide paper money in a tin can or a sock. The end of ■ a perfect cigarette may start a conflagartion. • A banker said the other da ‘‘There is not much money to be made farming in this vicinity.” With this statesment as an opening, he gave a series of carefully thought out facts that established proof that there is far more profit to be made here in otuer lines of industry than in farming. He is right. People do not make millions in farming. But there is more to the questiiu thin profit m iking possibilities! Agriculture was a desirable way of like- for thousand of years before anyone had thought of money. Incident ally, the beginnings of most of the Money making projects iu this county came from the soil, and the only new wealth ever produced here was produced on the farm. But that, too, beside the point. One of the men who was given the honor of being named "M aster Farmer” in an eastern Carolina county is quoted as saying: “ We have found life on the farm satis­ fying. We hoped to cultivate health and beauty and make a liv­ ing. Millions had been happy oh the soil before us and .we thought we might be able to synchronize the activities of our heads, hands and hearts and find some happiness, too ” W ith these conflicting ideas in mind we visited a nearby farm home last week. -It stands back a- gainst a ,mountain in the v.alle7 of. One of the big creeks that rise in the. Blue Ridge. It is a better-than- average farm home, but not, we were told, better than the average cduld be.. It is not pretentions, but everything is trim and well order­ ed, everything livable, there, is an atmosphere about the place that makes you feel that here a good place to oe. The house is comfortable, the lawn well landscaped and planted by a loving hand with shrubbery and flowers Weeping willows shade the barns and spiing house, and spruces grow on the lawn. It is a restful spot. The master of the farm' is inter ested in seed imp ovement and live stock. Creative work—the most interesting type of agricultural re search. He has been very success tul and his neighbors come to him for advice and help on their farm products. The m istressofthe home is in terested in interior decoration and gardening. She is doing splendid ly creative w orkaud getting from it a world of happiness. The family, "live at home.” Cured hams, canned, fruit, vege­ tables, meats and poultry fill the smokehouse. Up the spring branch m a shady pool, rainbow and brook trout play. Fine Jersey cows fur­ nish an abundance of milk, butter and cdttage cheese. The ' lady of the house is proud of her reputation for "setting a good table.” Her winter garden has five varieties of green vegetables growing in it.' The children of this family at­ tend a good consolidated high school. T heyaretransportedbya school bus and their advantages are second to none in tl e state. Books, magazines and papers are on the table in the big, sunny living room -,The family stands high in the community. If they lived in town, the size of ,their, cash income—if it iemained the same as ‘it now is— w.ohld restrict their, lot, and they would lack' the sense of bieng "as good as any and better than most.” ;s-"W e are going tb put in a light­ ing system this spring,” said the farmer, aud showed us how he could run water to generate the electricity at small cost, j Heat, lights and water, formi I dadble items in the city dweller’s I budget;- cost nothing: there The i grocery bill, also, is Negligible. Mooresville Enlerprise. TheoM gentleman who said, back several hundred years ago, that Wondeis will never cease, spoke more truth than poetry. Now you can buy biscuits in dough form in the grocery stores They come sealed in air tight packets, 10 in a package, and selling for ioc. All vou need to do is to take them out, put them iu a pan and slip them into a hot oven, It’s a boon for hu-v housewives and some not so b rsr—aud a blessing from on high to those who can’t make biscuits and never would be able to learn. It’s also fine tor the man of the house who-also likes to show off his Knowledge of cookery, and a god send for the bachelor obliged to cook his own meals. Butw hatw ill the grandmothers of today sav a bout- this new kitchen miracles? Chances are she will wave the in formation aside with a snort and say that it’s just a littlem oreproof of the laziness of the present gene­ ration; Money Comes Out. Millions o f. idle d fllars; whose timid owners have hid themselves away oiit of a useless fright afe coming out of a hiding and getting into the active dulies of dollars life.

It is a ‘way of life;—Catawba Review. Lisire all the business tl ey can get. Bnt considering the number of Iaw-Ao Outstanding Example Talkiug abnutcontinuances and | y-.rs, nlny eager and anxjous for delays in trials in courts, for a real|WOrk. it hardly seems fair for .-on e example of bomb proof exruse for continuance, take note of that pre­ sented to Judge Haves, in the.Fi-d- eral court at Gieensboro. bv Mr. H P Grier, of Statesville, T H Burke, of Taylorsville, and R A. Doughton. of Sparta.- Forty three citizens of W atauga cnuntv were indicted in the'F edera1 c<u t la:t June fni" violation of the election laws in W atauga, at the 1930 elec t’on. The trial had been set for the 21st- at Wilkesboro. Counsel for the defendants asked for a con tinuance and the motion w as.de nied. Thereupon they reinforced themselves aud so overwhelmed Judge Haynes that they got what they asked. If you didn’t read it in this paper look it up. First off the date of trial conflict­ ed with Mr. Grier’s engagements in Iredell Superior court. Mr. T C. Bowie, one of the original coun­ sel, is engaged in running for the senate, therefore he couldn’t stop his campaign to give his attention to a trial. Mr. Burkeliad an en­ gagement in Davie court to dtfend a man charged with murder. The man’s life couldn’t be imperiled be­ cause of violation of the election laws, although Mr. Burke had con sented to the original .date set for the election-law case. Strange to say, Mr. Doughton didn’t seem to have important engagements That conflicted. But there were other and m ost urgent reasons! It was declared that W atauga county was then, at that vtry T.ime,: "in the grip of a snow bi:zz ird and teveic cold,” wlvch wou'd make it almost impo-sihle for the 150 witnesses s iminoited from Watauga county to get out of the county. WTe h idn't read that an unusual stornt was prevailing in Watauga, but since the lawyers so declared we make no doubt that it was as they said. In fac tifth e y had said the snow was 14 feet deep we would not have challenged the statement. Then the Superior court will be in session at W ilkesboroon the 28 th and the countv court house would not be availabls fur the federal in­ stitution. T hereisafederal court room at Wilkesboro but this was declared to be entire.lv inadequate to accommodate ihe witnesses and litigants and others interested. While they didn’t say so, the in ference was that if the"case was forced to trial at Wilkesboro at this time the trial might have to be held in the open air, to the great dis­ comfort and Jbealth. hazard of all- concerned. The eminent counsel could no doubt have added other and furth­ er reasons for the continuance on further though, but that was en ough said. JudgeIIaves was but recently at the bar himself and lie knows how it is. They had him and he had to continue; but he warned that never again. The warning was the usual, which may not c iunt if other serious obstacles appear in the future. There is 110 questioning of The other engagements or any other statement. IfM r Grier, for in­ stance had been wrestling in -be­ half of the alleged election Jaw vio latorsat Wilkesboro, cases in Ire­ dell court in which he is counsel would have been continued of necessity ; and no doubt the same as to Mr. Burke’s case'at - Mocks- ville. So far as Mr. Bowie is con­ cerned it would hardly_seem a valid excuse to hold up a law case .while he campaigns for office. His duty 10 his client required that be get out when he decided to 1 1 accept work that conflicts with other engagements, considering that it delays the courts. It is not infrequent for important ca es ready for trial to be continued simply bi- cause counsel is engaged in a trial elsewhere That delays, increases expenses and cumbers the court dockets. But that is lhe way of the practice I ’ is accepted bv at­ torneys and courts as .entirely ethical. Tbe lawyer may- hold up court business at one place while he works at another. The layman can’t do anything about it but he his an opinion, about the same opinion he has of the practice of in­ stituting actions there is no purpose to try because they won't stand up —bringing them to hluff the other fellow. There was a rough !time in a number of the -Watauga- precincts iu the election of 1930 In some the voting was IieId up for a time by rough house tactics, it is alleg­ ed, while in one, probably, there was.no election. It is on account of these disturbances that 4 3 citi­ zens of that county are haled to c iurt. The Federal court gets iu on it because congresmen were be­ ing voted for at that election, and the federal government takes no­ tice of the conduct of elections in which members of the.national leg­ islature are being voted for. If it had been au election Ibr state and county officers only it is doubtful if anything would have been done a- bout it The disturbance would hai-e been a pravate affair.—States­ ville Daily.

Sometimes a fellow can land an office by using enough tnonev to buy it, or can get it by using under­ hand methods, but usually he doesn’t hold it long. The Al Smithdemocrats seemed to be in the majority at court last week. A Hoover democrat hasn’t got as much chance in Davie coun­ ty as a snowball has in—July. It may be dangerous to criticise- a public official, but the time I a come when the fellows higher up must be told of their narrowness and shortcomings same .as the little fellows. Hon: Tam Bowie, a candidate for the U. S; Senate, was in town Tues day of last week and auring the court recess for dinner he addressed a large number of voters in the courtroom Mr. Bowie paid his respecis to the Hor,. Cam Morrison, the millionaire Charlotte citizen who is now holding down the job as Senatoi through the kindness ot another millionaire, Hon. O Max Gardner, governor of the state of North Carolina. Mr. Bowie is mak iug an appeal to the working fplks, and is not backward in telling them what he thinks of the friends of big business, such as the Southern Power Co., Reynolds TooaccoCo., and others. We understand that Bowie converted at least one Mor­ rison man as a result of his speech. A short while ago Congress took a vote on what was termed the wet and dry question. There are ten Congressmen from North Carolina —all of them democrats. Out of this ten, eight voted in favor of pio'iibition, while one, l rtnk Han cock, ot the Fifth district, voted with the wet boys. Ourowu Wal ter Lambeth, Congressman' from the Seventh District, was, not pre sent and didn’t vote. Scme thought he was afraid to go on record, but we noticed in the Lexingttn Dis patch that the Congressman had in­ fluenza. Only a short while ago we read in the Charlotte Observer where Senator Josigh Bailey had said that Senator Cam Morrison was ill. The Senator made three speeches in "'North Carolina about this same time. Luring court weex oar town was full of politicians. Most of the boys who were shaking hands and intimating that they might make a sacrifice and accept a nomination, seemed to be inclined toward the sheriff's iob. We are told that there were six men working for the sheriff's job while only two men were wanting to be Register and two men were also hoping they would get the nomination for Clerk of the Court. The field is open to all who care to make the race. The campaign is expected to open up in Davie next week, as soon as the Republican convention meets. All county officers will be nominated in the county primary on June 4 th. Those wanting jobs will have but two months to get their friends lined up. The Republican county conven­ tion will meet in the' court house next Monday afternoon at one o'clock. IT is convention is called for the purpose of electing a new county chairman, and secretary, the latter office have been vacant since 240 good Republicans were read out of the party by a prominent gentleman whose name has appear ed in these columns before. Dele­ gates will also be named to* the State, Congressional and Senatori­ al Conventions, and new township committeemen will also be selected Jt is expected that , a- large crowd will be in town. The Republican Slate Convention will meet at Char­ lotte on Thursday, April 14th. This county is entitled to 14 dele­ gates to the- State Convention. , . Smoot For Sheriff. Charlie C. Smoot, of Calahaln, a well known merchant and farmer has announced his candidacy for sheriff of Davie county, subject 10 the will of the Republican voters in the primary to be held on June 4 th. Mr. Smoot is too well known by all the people of the county to need any introduction at our hands. He has hundreds of friends who- will be glad to support him for this important office Mr. Smoot was candidate for sheriff two years ago, and received a handsome vote in a four-corned race. He withdrew his name from the convention after many ballots had been cast, and Mr. C, W. Hall received the no mination.

Grist, a World W ar Veteran and candidate for the de­ mocratic nomination United States S euateinthe June 4 th primaries, Savs; The ex service men of North Carolina would, receive $3 8 ,80 4 , 179 2 4 it the soldiers bonus was paid in full. Ex-service men living in the following counties, would re­ ceive; Rockingham $6 2 5,255.7 2 , $272,829 6 0, Surry $486 527 7 6, Yadkin $2 2 0,4 4 2 .4 0, Davie .$176,- 0 8 4 6 4 . Davidson $ 5 8 5 86 7 .6 0, Wilkes $4 4 2 ,6 2 2 ,8 8 , - Guilfore $1,- 6 2 8 .0 4 2 .4 0 and Forsyth $!,-3 6 6,- 975 44 . " , ' The average man thinks, that the payment of the bonus would in crease his taxes, but it will not, SavsM r Grist. "T hissum w illbe paid in fact by 38 0 ,0 0 0 wealthy in come tax payers and the big cor­ porations of the United States who pay taxes on excess profits. All federal revenue is derived as we known from tariff income and in heritauce taxes international re­ venue. Fourteen per cent of the money comes from import duties and' the remainder from income taxes and Ilie corporations. For that reason, I do not see why the average man should be opposed to the payment of the bonus.” There are 750 .0 0 able bodied World W ar veterans now unemploy­ ed, 7 5 .0 0 0 Veterans with disabilities unemployed and- 8 00,000 Veterans who are working part time of from one to four hours a week and in most cases at greatly reduced wages. Therefore, I 600 coo Vet­ erans and their families are facing want and hunger and it is impera­ tive that they be paid their money at once and millions of other Veter ans are in such financial distress that they should be paid the re­ mainder of their bonus as soon as \ possible. It is a fact that if the bonus money loaned to the Veterans, last year is not repaid to the United States government before the due d ite of the principal sum, the in terest on the money boriowed will have almost entirely, consumed the principal and the veterans will re­ ceive nothing. These soldier boys bravely faced the red hell of Fland­ ers, that the Democracy of the World and the free government of the United States might live and sureiy the people and their govern ment will not desert them now in their hour of need.

The March term of Davie court will go down in history as being the biggest court ever held in the county so far as number of cases tried and prisoners sent to chain gangs and the pen. Judge W alter Moore did the sentencing while Solicitor Jones did the prosecuting. The sound of the pistol is Iieard more- often than the song* of the mocking bird in Davie, and crime stalks abroad at noonday, to quote the lamented Chas. B. Aycoek. Among the cases disposed of were the following: Frank Smith, 5 7-year old farm er of the Round Hill section of the county, indicted by a grand jury one year ago on a carnal knowledge charge was acquitted when his case was heard. Smith was charg­ ed with having carnal kuowledge of a female under 16 yeats ot age, namely, his stepdaughter, Viola Swarington. Sanford Ploughman, young man of the Redland coramnnitv, charg­ ed with entering the home of Duke Smith while the family was away, locking himself in and going to sleep, was given five years in the penitentiary after pleading guilty Oi\e ot the most amusing cases heard was that of Jesse Hege. ne­ gro of Winston Salem. Hege was charged with being with Dulin Cain, of Winston-Salem, who ad initted having served three , years in the pen on a liquor count,- when officers Baity and Harding caught him with 20 gallons of good Wilkes county liquor, near Farmington Hege was adjudged guilty and sen tenced to two yeais on tne chain gang. ' Caiu plead guilty to possession ard transporting and was senten­ ced to two years. Rome Benson, 5 4. paid a $ 5 0 fine when he pleaded guilty to possess­ ion of material for manufacturing whisky. Clint Brown,- 6 8 , who told Solicitor Jones he -learned to make whisky while a resident of Wilkes county and a partner of Benson, also drew a $ 5 0 fine and costs, instead of 6 mos. on roads. J. F. Jarrette, principal of the Davie Academy School in Calahaln township, charged with whipping a child of Doctor Walker, was not tried this term due. to an improp erly drawn bill. The grand jury took up the matter Thursdiv but failed to fiud a true bill. Judge Moore seemed fo be doing his share in relieving the unem­ ployment situation as he imposed a total of 3 4 0 months in 32 sen tences. AU were misdemeanor counts except a few. Armond Daniel, affray'; appeal from magistrate’s decision of $5 .and costs. Decision upheld and Daniel pays the fine and costs. Bowman Eaton, col , forgery. Two years in penitentiary.

Stroud Passes Tommie E lis, Jr.. charged with the murder of Willie Beauchamp, 21. near Advance last month, Saturday was found guilty of murder in the second degree by a Davie county jury that deliberated his case only an hour and thirty-five minutes. Judge Walter E. Moore, presiding, immediately sentenced the youth tp William Cuthrell, negro, failure j twenty-five to thirty years in the to pav costs, three months on roads.

T he case against W alter Camp­ bell. possessing whisky, was con­ tinued to August court. Mrs. Lillian Slieek vs G. A. Sheek, divorce. Divorce granted: The grand jury also found a true biil against McKinley Dulin, col ored, for the murder of Duke Scott, also colored, in an automobile wreck near Smith Grove school on March 4 th, of last year. In the hurry of gathering the court proceedings we may have un­ intentionally left out some names. If your name was due to appear and didn’t, we hone you will over­ look the mistake. If we have sent you to the pen instead of the chain gang, or charged you with making booze instead of drinking it, we al­ so prav your forgiveness. TRUE BILL AGAINST SCOTT Foreman C. J. Taylor brought his grand jury into the oourt room Thursday afternoon and his Honor read a true bill charging E.

Richmond Bailey, who pleaded guilty to manslaughter as an acces­ sory after the fact, was sentenced to t-n to. fifteen years imprisonment Bailey was the state’s star witness against Ellis, and it was almost, en­ tirely on his testimony that convic­ tion was secured. The crime for which the two Davie boys are to go to the pen was the outgrowth of a drinking party of the three. The Beachamp bi-y was reported missing on the 20 h of F- b- ruary. Tnatwas Saturday, and on the following Thursday, two women gatheriug cress in the woods near Advance came upon his body, a bu - let wound through his head.

Independent Suppose that Herbert Hoover were a private citizen and that in the midst of the economic gloom which shrouds the ouotry he had come forward with a seri-s of pro­ posals so clear cut. so sound in prin ciple, so.promising of satisfactory re­ sults as to have won the - cclaim of scientific bankers and business men and the support of C mgress. Would there not be utdveral demand that he.be made the next President in in order that the mind that devised this program should be at the ser­ vice of the country in carry it into effect? Well, here is Herbert Hoc- ver’s program. It is so clear cut, so sound in principle, so promising of satisfactory results that it has won tie acclaim of scientific economists, the approval of practical bankers and business men and the support of Congress. Is he to be denied credit merely because he brings the pro­ gram forward as the President of the United States and not as a pri­ vate citizen? This program can not be expected to go forward of its own momentum. It must have direction, SMmujation and guidance. Who bet­ ter qualified to carry it through tu the achievement of which it is pos­ sible than the man who devised it? Direct Aid to Farmers. Under the provisions of the Recon= S ruction Finance Corporation law, suggested by President Hoover and promptly passed by Congress. $50 - OOO 000 is available—and more w;ll be provided if necessary—for direct loans to farmers who need to help finance their farming operations dur­ ing the coming crop year, with sp<- cial reference to those in sections which suffered from drought last year. Loans will be made only to those who farmed last year. Not to exceed $400 will be lent to any one farmer. Applications for loans will be passed upon by advisory commit tees set up or to be set up. in every county, concerning which full publi city will be given. The rate of in terest shall be more than five and a half per cent, but it may be less if a lower rate is found possible. Ap plicants for loans must agree to plant a garden for home use and a suffi­ cient acreage of I eea for farm ani­ mals. How Short Seliing Works. The corn crop begins to reach the central markets in December. Sup­ pose that in September the price is $1,00 The specular begins to sell corn for December or January de­ livery. He sells a limited amount at $1.00 But with-continued and heavy offerings to sell corn the price gradu­ ally declines. The speculator: keeps on selling and the price keeps on go­ ing down Wnen he thinks it has reach d about the lowest price to which it can be forced the specular quietly beings to buy. He buvs, let us say, for 50 cents corn that he sold in September for $1.00. He makes 50 cents profit on every bushel. The farther he can force the price down the greater his profit will be He sells “shot” —that is he sells corn he does not own—in September, Octob­ er and Noverber 1 expecting to buy in December enough to fill his sale contracts at ptices enough below what he sold for to assure him a pro- fi\ And so with wheat and other grains. The result of this heavy selling is inevitably to depress the price. That is what shot selling means that is the- way it works. It is that sort of speculation against which President Hoover has prosested again and again, and to put an end to which the Senate is now investigating the whole system, at his request. The Good Old Days. The Twin City Sentinel. “ Prices of food stuff, which have been greatly reduced during the past past few months, are sti.l not low as I have seen them, remarked one of the older citizens Friday. He stated that while keeping books for.a tobacco manufacturing firm at -Yddkin Cdifi^fe?Davidson cbunty, back- more lhan half a century ago, eggs sold for 5c a dozen and butter brought onb' ten cents a pound, ffTliose were what some people ‘termed good old.days.’ but Idiffei with ’em,” continued: this old-timer who has witnessed several prosper ous as well as depressive seasons m this country since his boyhood days. Criticism Helps. New York Times. Senator M ises might have alleged, as more than one disinterested ob­ server at Washington has1 asserted that the Republican outlook is im­ proving partly because the Dimo crats have offered no consistent pro­ gram of their own and are p'uttirg forwrrd no inspiring leaders they have and casting about for a medio­ crity. The more shrill and wiolent they are in their -outcries against President Hoover, the better do they make his chances appear, compared with their own indecision and"bitter quarrels within their own househi 11. Hurley Answers Roskob In a recent statement John J.' Rar- kob, chairman of the Democratic national committee, assuming the role of spokesman for the President, declared that Mr. Hoover would run on a wet platform if necessary. Tak­ ing notice of thi- ,itatement, and re­ calling the old proverb that a fool should be answered according to his folly, Secretary of War Hurley made answer as follows: Mr. Raskob is in a position to speak much more accurately of the amount of money that he and his associates have spent slandering and M M i'iiju ii' '.I I P 1Hi I )ic of th e United States than he is as to the President’s views of the eighteenth amendment.” Smokies Are Beautiful. During the past ten days the Smoky Mountains have looked love­ ly in their coats of white. Those who visited them over the week end found about eight inches of snow and zero weather.
