T hen in ,1928 when the nom ination came to him by virtual default, that paper idds, he did the party that honor ed him a disservice, by inserting his- iwn “ w et” plank in the platform.

H e is the fellow who complains- b iu t the ruts ip. the street, but' hi hasn’t paid any taxes for year and. of course, doesn’t help keep 'th em in condition. H e is the fellow who finds fault with the public schools and the teachers, but never did anything in his life to improve the schools. H e is the fellow' who condemns everything and sees no good in anything. You all know him. and his type The sooner he leaveg us, the soon er we will move forward. H e is the one who is not worth much to any com m unity. Contrast him with the citizens who is a: booster and may be count ed on to b e lp every w orthy cause. T his type of citizen pays his debts and his taxes, stands for everything th at is for the better ment of the place w here he :• lives an4 never allows his enthusiasm for his home town to lag. H e is an asset to any com m unity. Itis m enof his class who are re sponsible'fo n all of the' improve ments th at are made.

Old Man John H enry H auser, w ho has been w aiting in Davie county iail the answer of the Su prem e court to his appeal from the Sentence of death imposed on his • conviction'of first degree m urder for the killing of bis son-in-law, was stricken w ith pneum ouia few days ago and his condition is criti cal. On the order of the governor the old man—-82—was removed to the Baptist hospital at W iuston Sa lem for treatm ent. H e will of course be kept under guard. N o doubt m any' people whose sym pathy exceeds-their knowledge as to the powers of the governor will feel that Governor G ardner should have granted the old man a pardon out of hand; and that note will be sounded if the term ination of the illiiess is fatal, as it may be, considering the age of the victim. It is well to keep the facts in mind. Mr. H auser killed his son-in-law and a jury of his countrym en con victed of-first degree m urder. T he death sentence was autom atic. The case was appealed. No application was made to the governor for clem ency. T hat will come if and when the high court affirms the judgm ent of.the court of first instance. But so long as the governor wasn’t asked to intervene he can't act vol untarily. H anserclaim ed self de fense and he hopes to get a new trial and acquittal. So there was not, nor is ithere now, anything the governor could do under the condi tions except what he d i1—see that the old man received proper care during his illness. W e have never-believed that the old man-is in any; danger of electro cution. W hile tile law m akes al lowance for children who kill, on the assum ption that they knew not w hat they do, it m akes 110 excep tion for old people. But on ac count of H auser’s age his sentence •is almost certain to be commuted if he lives and the Suprem e court fails him. It w ouldbe too much to expect that the governor would give him an outright pardon, but his penitentiary service will be short if he ever gets there.—States ville Daily. reling again. —D unbar W eekly. cerned in recovery are the ones Tw o im portant divisions-of the whose m argins of savings are th e ' British em pire are back to norm al- smallest.

W bat a m onth this h as' been, a m onth in which nature has been at her best, with her most handsome colors and beauties displayed for the pleasure of a long tired of the bleakness of w inter and hungry for the w arm th and delights of this spring season N ever have the redbud "tress bloomed more abundantly and with more beauty, declare observers of nature; never have the dogwood trees blossomed better, and nevei have they given a more perfect pic ture of snowflakes against the dark- background of the pines or against the lighter shades of greens as the oaks, hickories, and other hard woods put forth their tender, feath- erly leaves which will soon turn to the darker, more somber shades. The fields of grain have also been beautiful; a rather favorable spring, with enough rainfall to af ford good grow th, has been advan tageous to grow th, and prospects ot a good hasvest are to be seen on every band. The dark, green fields flanked with the redbuds and dog woods, have formed scenas of the most beautiful kinds, and have been admired by many. T he apples and peaches have con tributed their beauiies to the swift- iy changing landscape. Yaads have been gay with their verbenas of m any colors, the ever lovely tulips, the delicately-shaded pansies, the brilliant yellow bells, and all the other delightful flowers of the sea son. A pril—with her changing moods, her blight sunshine, her refreshing showers, her intricate and beatiti ful desigus produced by the bud ding of tress and blossoming ot the flowers aud trees of all types—is truely one of the most beautiful of all m onths. Aud the present ApTil has been one of the most lovely ot' all m onths And the present April has been one of the-m ost lovely of all Aprils. An artist w ould find it difficult to depict all her colors on a canvas, and a poet would have to exercise all his ability to moods iu song or verse. BeaUtiful April will soon be gohe, and May with her flowers, songbirds and other at tractions, will be a worthy succes sor, it is hoped.—Salisbury Post. Farmington Church To Celebrate.

Here Is A Man! Twice recently news items have reported arrest of sons bv officer father—the last one in S u n d at’s Daily News. These items were news, being the unusttal, presum- ibly. But we would believe that they are uousuai, presum ably. But we would believe that they are on usual only because there are so few occasions that call for such action on the part of officer fathers. In the .Marion \ instance Sheriff Mc Kinney is quoted as saying that he' sworn to enlorce the law and he could not do otherwise than take his own son to prison. We paure to applaud. T hat has the sound of real conception of official duty— that duty which is no respecter of persons, that knows no one in its discharge. But really Deputy Mc- Kinney-was doing no more than is required ot any officer T here is no exception fof oue’s flesh and blood, no m atter how great the trial, the agony even, when official duty and parental affection come in collision W fth the real man to when an oath means w hat it says, there is never any doubt about the outcome. W hile we don’t wish to believe that Deputy M cKinney is an ex ception—that it is common for of ficers to look the other wav when friends and kindted are in Ime for official attention— we are giviug Mr M cKinney an extra cheer be cause it is believed that he is at least an exception to the general tendency. W hen the Superior court judge found th it his child comm it ted a crim e he committed a - nother to shield her and was ap plauded for the depth of the par ental love that would move a pub lie official to turn criminal to shieid a member of his family. W edon’t know the extent of the disposition to cheer the judge and sym pathize with him for adding felony to fe- long, but it was sufficient to indi cate a rather strong sw ing to the attitude that officers may be e x cused for dishonestly protecting their kin when they appsar as law breakers —and it would be easy to efctend that to ftiehds—eveh to the extent of com m itting a crime to coyer up. . Agaim we sound a cheer for the hum ble deputy sheriff of McDowell county. H e isn’t asking any medals He know bnt o n e th in g to do and that was the right thing. W em ay believe his heart was w rung .when he handed his sou into the keeping of the sheriff to face a m urder charge. But his conception of duty rises so far above that of the Su perior court judge that he shines by contract. W e present Deputy M cKinney of McDowell.

Did Leave The Bank’s Speculators—Pickp ick- ets. : Congress — strictly speaking : comm ittee of the senate—is investi gating operations on the the New York stock exchange. Probabl' nothing will come of the investiga tion. T he public will take note 0 the revelations with varied emo lions, although the revelations wil not be different from w hat riios’ folks surmise. One Sm ith, specn 'ator, was being exam ined by th' Senate com m ittee when the follow ing proceedings were had, as pei A P and U P report: W hen Sm ith took the stand h< was asked if he was know n ss 1 “ big short operator.” "Y es, sir,” he replied. ‘ You have been known as a big bear raider?” "N o one has called me a raidei to my face, and I don’t know w hai what is mean by raider,” he report ed. H e agteed w ithout any show of resentm ent, however, that he had heard he had the reputation. " IYouH a specialist divulge in formation on his otder books?'-’ in qoired Senator Glass, Democrat, Virginia. _ W ell, lie m ight ” said Sm ith. ‘ A m an who would do that would pick pockets.” exploded the fiery V irginian A t which Sm ith smiled. The prevalent public opinion of many of the speculators who buy and sell—or go through the form oi buying and selling—on the stock exchange, is that the same aspick- oockets; that their m ethod of oper ation is really-w orse. But seeing that the unw arv who mix in stock m arket speculation go in of their own free will it is impossible for the governm ent to act as guardian If they win they have no complaint to m ake. I t is only when they loose that they shout fraud. They may be beneficiaries of fraud in the winnings, but that would be all right. W ith some people fraud be comes fraud only when they are hurt by the transaction. If they profit by it they Ca a see nothing Vnrong with it. . T o n io st of us.stock speculations are of no interest. If the bears beat down the price and profit, or the bulls m anage to boost the price and profit, that is all in tfie day’s work. Pockets may be picked either way in effect. But stock m arkets are held essential for business pur poses. All sorts of sharp practice have become a part of w hat is a necessary a proper business if so conducted. T he senate committee will probably m ake some sort of re port, the speculators will be a lit tle more careful for a tim e, and then things will go as before.— S tatesvilieD aily..

Two years ago Davie county Democrats promised if they were elected to the offices iu that county that the office of county welfare agent and county treasurer would be abolished. W eP the Democrats were elected and tliey abolished them all right but ,turned right a round an-re established them under another name.

H erepresented th is' riistric nice before, when it was the ninth, tnd was defeated for re election bv Maj. A. L. Bulwinkle. It is bareh jossible that Mr. Jonas would like m other shot a t Congress and a thance to run rff the tie with tht major, whom he also defeated; but it is much m ore likely ihat the Lin coln ton man takes on the candidacy rs a part of the price one pays for trying to organize and m aintain a ninority party.

No Building and Loan Failure. In a recent report Insurance C m- nissioner Boney states the building md loan associations in the statp are ill “ in sound and solvent condition, ■hough essentially non-liquid.” ■ Of he 226 building'and loan associations >n the state, ro t a failure was report ed last vear, and but six associations vere m erged or voluntarily liqui- 'iated in 1931 there were 41,986 indivi- iuals aided through m ortgage loans iveraging $1.8i4 76 and 7.776 loans m stock averaged $481 96 carh. The •eport shows that the average : cost ■f homes built through building and oan aid was lower than in 1930. the figures to be $2,925.48 for 1930 and $2,439 in 1931. The average invest m ent per month also decreased in 1931, but the capital invested per ■share increased for the year. The operating expense of the bui'ding and loan associations, al ways low. remains the 'sam e as .in previous years, a little more than one per cent of the capital invested, At the end of 1931 the report shows that there had been a decrease of 1,164 in colored.shareholder and an increase of 457 whites, leaving a tc- cal of 95 208 shareholders, There is justified cause for faith in the building and loan associations, and the fact that during this depres sion they were able to stand the test, has still further augm ented the public confidence. The local building and loan asso ciations have been a wonderful help to the citizens of this community, tnd deserve the patronage of every- me ambitious to save, whether they ire waae earners are prefer to Ti - gard their earnings as a salary. N ew ' -eries opened every month or so in .me or the other of the local asFiici; - tions.

Editor:—It’s tim e for the peo ple of this country to begin to. do some serious thinking. C mgress is acting just like the old’ Roman Em peror Nero, “ Fiddling while Romf was burning ” They may think they can get by indefinite'y upholding huge alaries paid out of the taxpay ers mnnev, while millions o f people a re going hungry and are unable to get work to buy the necessities of life. T hebiggest part of our tax monies is going for big salaries and unless expenses of commissions and other useless boards created to pro vide places for the tools of political machines, and are sucking the life blood of the people; our congress and legislatures had as well realize that expenses of all governm ent n i l have to be reduced or there can be no tax reduction. It’s got to come, and-.I am one who proposes casting my vote for no man or woman who will not labor to reduce our taxes. It’s tax reduction or revolution is just around the corner. This is no tim e for partizan politics to influ ence our voting; its bread and a !fo ils:. and the law-makers had better take notice before the fLod. W hat has been done in Davie county to relieve the people of the burdens of taxation? O jher counties have re duced salaries and other expenses Why has nothing been done in Davie to reduce? Are the officeholders and tax-eaters any better to work for a reduced income than every one else? Wnose income has not been almost wiped out by the world-wide depres- s'on except the tax-eaters and office- h ilders? Must we continue to see o\ir friends’ farmB and homes put up and sold by the tax-gatherers in or- di r to pay big salaries? Why have a tax sale now when any reasonable man knows the county will have to bid in the property, and later if not paid a big bill of cost with attor* n«\vs fees added to the overload of th<> taxpayer. Old Jack Tyler, over a hundred years ago. made a speech in which he used the following Ian- euage: “ When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentle m an.” There is but one-way to re duce taxes—REDUCE EXPENSES.; • E H.

W ashington, May 2.—By a ope- vote m argin the Suprem e court to day threw out as invalid the T exas law under which the Democratic state executive comm ittee barred negroes from Democratic primaries T he m ajority of Ihe five to four alignm ent held that the law had constituted the slate executive com m ittees of all political parties its 3- gents and that the act ot the Dem ocratic group was therefore the act of the state, invalid under the 14th am endment to the federal constitu tion. ■ ‘ , “ T he pity of the m atter is sim p ly .this,” Justice Cardozo stated in deliveriug'the opinion, “ th at when those agencies are invested: w ith an authority independent of the will of the association in whose name they become to that extent theorgans’of the state itself, the depositories of official power. T hey are then the governm ental instrum ents whereby parties are are organized and re gulated.” Previously — M arch, 1927 — the court set aside a T exas law which barted negroes from voting in the Democratic primaries. T hat case and the case today was brought to the Suprem e court by L- A. N ixon, of El Paso, T ex., a negro, who sued the ’ Democratic judges of election for dam ages caused by their refusal to permit him to vote. Justice M cReynolds1 delivered a dissenting opinion in which Justices V.in D avam er, Sutherland and B ut ler jointed. They took the view that the “ notion that statute con verts tbe executive committee into an agency of the state lacks sup port.” Refreshing to the former action declaring invalid the T exas law prohibiting negroes from voting in Democratic prim aries, Justice Mc Reynolds asserted it was fair to con strue the preseut law as an inten tion of the legislature to rescind its former act and to reconize “ the gen eral right of political parties to pre scribe qualifications for member ship.” U nder such a construction the law.sbould be sustained, the minor itv insisted.

T racing som ewhere else than at ' hom e is one thing that m akes em p ty houses in town iii a town. I T he carelessness w ith which the Congress sometimes does its work is well illustrated in a recent om nr- bus pension bill which passed both Houses and was sent to -the Presi dent. T he bill contains a total of 367 items establishing special pen sions and increased allowances to persons who have not been able to comply with the general laws. N aturally the bill contains niany m eritorious cases, blit along with these were such cases as the follow ing: A proposed pension for a man who was court raartialed for drunk enness, sentenced to six m onths’ confinement, and whose conduct during confinement was so bad that he was discharged w ithout honor tor the good of the service. A proposed pension for a man who was discharge w ithout honor for chronic alcoholism. A proposed pension to a wtdow whose claim was filed five years after the death of the veteral, who abandoned her claim for a period of tw enty five years, who is shown by a recent investigation never to have been the legal wife of the soldier. A proposed pension to a man guilty of desertion aud dishonor ably discharged. A proposed pension to a man for self-inflicted injuries incurred in attem pted suicide. A proposed pension for loss a leg as the result of being struck by the fender of a street car while the claim ant was lying on the track in ,a completely intoxicated condition. A proposed pension to a widow whose husband had only nine days’ service in a state m ilitia for which he was paid by the United States, uo disability relating to.service be ing fourd. A proposed pension to a man who spent most of his sei- vice in a hospital and was discharged w ithout honor because of diseases contracted not in line of duty. And num erous other'cases equal ly without merit. It is needless to say that Presi dent Hoover vetoed the bill, re commended that it be revised to in clude only m eritorious cases and suggesting a larger dependence should be placed upon reports which are easily' obtainable from the persion service The President’s veto ought to be printed in every veterans’ publica tion in the land for surely. every dollar squantered upon those who have no legitim ate claim upon the governm ent is a rank injustice to those veterans whose disabilities incurred in m ilitary service proper ly entitle them to governm ent rec ognition.

T he absentee ballot law was pass ed, I understand, to give the soldi er who was compelled to he away from home the right to vote. W hen the w ar was over the law should have been made to apply to soldiers of the standing arm y. T he law should never have applied to any man who voluntarily left the coun ty and went to another county or state. Every man that is of anv account at all. and that has a spark of patriotism iu him, wants to help the state and county in -which he lives. If he is no account his vote should not be wanted by any honest man in the county he left. T his law is an open door to cor ruption. W hat is the great Demo cratic P arty, noted for its intergrity coming to if its tolerates a law the very existence of which suggests fraud? W ho are these absentee voters in a county? There is a great m ulti tude of them . W here do they come come from? W hen did they leave their native county and w here did they move to? A n d ifth e y a re so interested in the county they have left and they w ant to vote there, why do they not move back? I am fold that in many cases men who have been dead for years are being voted as absentees,- and that those who are living are often voted by some disreputable officer w ithout the knowlege of the voter. But after all, if we are going to vote absentees, w hat difference does it m ake w hether they or alive? In fact, if we are going to vote ab sentees and give them a chance to control our county, I think I would prefer the dead ones - Tliev at le^-t did not leave their county voluntar ilv— would have staved if they could; and besides, the most of them left some property the tax on which helps the county they left—and that cannot be said of the one who voluntarily left. H e took took all be had with him. T here is auother reason why I would prefer the dead abseeniee voter. H e will not vote anywhere else—-and we cannot be sure of that if the absentee voter is living A gain, I . would rather have the Vote of the dead absentee than the vote of any living man who does not think enough of the county in which he lives to vote there. If one is going to use the voles of absentees, what difference does it m ake w hether the voter is dead or alive? W hether he Went to heaven or to C alifornia—he’s gone. T he law is a fraud and Should be repealed’. T hrough it the control of your county is apt to be put in the hands of a bunch whose onlv interest is the m oney they can get Out of it; for the only interest most absentee voters have in the county is the price paid for his absentee vote. : W e don’t want a county con trolled by absentees, dead or alive I hope that the leadets ot both parties in E urke county will get t( - gether and agree that no absentee vote shall be cast’ in the coming election. I hope no man . will run for office in'B urke county this year who w ants an absentee vote, and th at uo m an will be elected to of flee who resorts to corruption to get that office.

In their failure to instruct the county’s employees to proceed w ith the sale of-property for taxes the county com m issioner have made it possible for perhaps hundreds of citizens to save their holdings; T he countv commissioners found themselves in a serious situation. By ordering the land on which' tax es have not been paid to he^sold1 the commissioners would hav.e in curred a great economic loss to the county ; because of the penalties in volved, as well as a loss to indivi duals. By not ordering the sale, the commsioners m ust' depend upou the next legislature passing an act validating a later sale. Pressure was brought to bear upon the people—for the commis sioners are representatives ~ by large num bers of small .home own ers and from the locally powerful real estate board. Forsyth is in rather good finan cial circum stances, from a govern m ental standpoint, and is not de pendent upon the collection of tax-*, es in arrears for its operating re venue. T he county’s m aturing bonded indebtedness is not such to make it im perative to proceed w ith forced sales for taxes, as is tbe case in m any counties. TherefOie it appears that the county commissioners have acted in a friendly spirit aud in wise m an ner- to save many people from loss of their homes and all from an eco- n >niic loss of their homes and; all from an economic loss that comes with foreclosures — T w inC ity Sentinel.

They have abandoned going to our S un day school and church. I think it is a sham e on our com m uuity1 to have such goings on. ' W hen we used to have our ' four m onths school there was not', so much night going. Now-I believe that these places I have mentioned have , been- more dam age to, ,the. morals of our young bovs and girls than anything else.

Life’s Darkest Moment. -The return to the home town of the “ local boy” who has made good in the big city is rarely, we have understood, w hat it m ight be. In connection w ith this we have to report the particular sad experience of a young banker who,- after eight w ars of absence, alighted at .the station of the town of his birth. T here was, despite his expectation,, no one on the platform he knew . No one. Discouraged, he. sought out the baggage m aster, a friend since boyhood. T o him at least he would be welcome, aud whs. about to extent a hearty greeting, when the other spoke first. “ Hello G eorge.” h e said.' , “ G oin1 away?” fHr&AVI£ M6€f8V1Lt£ N. C.

Smoot and Allen are m aking a n a c t i v e campaign throughout the county and many of their friends are helping them. E ither of these gentlemen would make a good sheriff, and we have no doubt but that one of them will be found holding down the_sheriff’s office after the first Monday in De cetuber. In speaking of the John Hetirv H auser trial, the W inston Salem Journal, in a recent issue, said: “ It appears that Judge John H enrv Clem ent, who presided at the trial, om itted to tell the jury about the different kinds of m urder. The jury evidently had heard of on’.v one ktnd and that was the first de gree variety. But Judge Clem ent’s omission gets the state out of a sad situation and on that account can not be regarded as a reflection upon his sound learning.” If John H en ry H auser has to be tried again in tbe-Davie courts, then Judge Clem ent’s omission may get the State out of a sad situation, but w hat a- bout the taxpayers of Davie coun ty? W ehavebeen told that this trial cost the taxpayers of Davie neariy two thousand dollars. An notber trial would no doubt cost us practically the same. M eaning of ao harm and reflecting not at all on pur friend Judge Clement, we are compelled to say that this little omission on his part will cost the taxpayers of Davie countv about So bales of cotton or about 200,000 pounds of tobacco.

Be cause it was w ithout fanfare of horns -and plume and sw oid and prancing steed, it took tim e for the quiet efficiency of the Hoover raethed to be perceptible. But now, looking back on the record of the two years and a half of depression it is seen, that absolu tely every practical step that has been false steps to some of which the President has vainly opposed and some of which he has reluctant ly accepted, as a less evil than further fighting them , and m any of the worst of which He has success fully thw arted. But the things that have actually been done have all been his. ’ Even in the present tax dilem m a it is always to the President that the w arring Democrats and the Republican party in Congress. T he things he has asked have been all protested— and then granted, be c iu se n o o n e could find anything else to do.

Opposes Any New Source of Revenue. 1 I am unalterably opposed to any new source of revenue to- be derived by taxation for any cause,” rem arked a JV inston Salem banker a few days ago. H e explained that not only too many people, but the head of the various governm ents want to continue spending money just as they did during w hat were called prosperous days. “ W e need to reduce overhead ex penses and bring the cost of gov erum ents back to within the pre sent tax incomes,” declared tm s banker, when reminded of the ad dress before the state bankers at Pinehurst the past week, in which the speaker, A ngus D. M cLean, member of the last legislature, who still contends that this state will have to come to a general sales tax for schools and- other put poses.

Louisville claims one of the old est and largest organizations, of its kind in the South or Middle West in the J. F. Kurfees Paint Com pany, Brooks and M arket Streets. Established, in 1897 by J F. K urfees1 the concern has grown tc its present dom inant position in the plant industry under the leader ship of Mr. Kurfees, who has di rected its policies ever since its in ception. T be original location of the com pany was on M arket street, bet ween F irst and second Streets. H aving outgrow n that site ,' htad quarters'w ere moved a few years later further up Market-, between First and Brook Streets. In 1915 the first section of the present modern structure at Brooks and M arket Streets was erected and four years ago the other section was added. “ OTir new plant, and there is cer tainly none superior to be found anywhere, is the last w ord'in con struction and equipm ent,” an offi cials of the firm said. “ T horough ly fireproof, it is fully equipped with autom atic sprinklers and con tains three acres of floor space. "O u r m anufacturing equipm ent includes every know h modern de- vic and machine for the convenient and rapid handling of onr business in every departm ent, from the re ceiving of the raw m aterials to the packing and distribution of the finished products. Being thus equip ped. onr friends are assured of the best possible service and prom pt at tention on attention on any .and all business sent us.” Products of the J. F. K urfees Paint Company are carried by gen eral m erchants’ and in hardw a:e and drug stores not only in Louis ville but throughout Kentucky,. Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana Ohio, South Carolina, N orth Caro lina, Tcuuessee, V irginia and W est Virginia. - Am ong the leading lines featured at present bv the company are K ur fees ■ So'’’ and • 20,” a too per cent pure lead and zinc paint lor both inside and outside use; G ranitoid, a quick-drying enatnal, and Dim- Tone a quick drying, semi gloss eu- amal Roof paints,- shingle stains, roofing cem ent and brushes also are in stroug demand at this season “ Color in paint is-the only m e dian entering into the construction or m aintenance of a bouse which affords the owner an opportunity to express bis or her individuality unrestricted by cost,” it was point ed out. “ Good paint is not a cost. It is an insurance which protects and engthens the life of every ma terial used in the construction. “ W ithout the protection of paint, a building deteriorates rapidly aiid decieases in value proportionately. It is only natural that the modern vogue for color in everything we use and wear should extend to the exteriors as well as interiors of our homes. B righter colors are now the styles and fashion. One has only to look about at the striking transform ations to realize that color is m aking our lives more pleasant. “ kurfees Paint is a 100 per cent pure product.

It is am azing and a good deal discouraging to find even so great a man as Dr. Nichols M urry Butler, President of Colum bia University , declaring. In a public address that “ our tariff has made it exceeding ly (Jifficujt and almost impossible for debtors in other lands to pay their obligations to us, and it has therefore penalized our American bankers and investors.” It would be interesting to know how the good Doctor accounts for the fact that for nearly one hund red consecutive years the United States has enjoyed a favorable bal ance of trade raaging from $2,000,- 000 to $2,000,000,006 anuually. H o w h a v e o u r "debtors in other lands” paid this adverse balance through all these long years? Of course they have paid it through invisable and indirect balances. O iherwise they would have been hopelessly iu debt to us long ago. Of course, as a students of eonomics, Dr. Butler knows this perfectly, well and it is not quite candid of him to ignore, it now in order to make a poiut against our "present tariff —a point which co’uld just as well have been made against every other tariff we have ever levied. As to “ penalizing our American bankers and investors,” it surely will not be contended that they made their investm ents in foreign securities upon any liuder-tanding or agreem ent that their debtors should have free entry into our m arkets for their goods in order to repay their obligations. A protec tive tariff was in existence when these investm ents were made and it is absurd to argue that the slight increases in' tariff rates that may have been made since the invest m ents were placed has m aterially changed the conditions th at existed when they were made. It isdesirable, of conse, to protect American investm ents abroad. But is it to be done at the expense of the Am erican farm er and the A- m erican laboring m an as all the critics of our. protective tariff in effect demand? If, tor instance, we im port ‘ 500 million dollars’ w orth of m anufactured goods to pay the bons, that means that we have, adm itted into opr m arket 500 mill- Iion dollars worth of goods made by the laboring of foreigners labor of Am erican workmen; If we take 500 million dollars’ w orth oT farm products from," other countries in order that the bankers’ load may be paid we have robbed the A m eri can farm er of 500 million dollars’ w orth of. home markets, for pro ducts. T his is plain common sense which the A m erican farm er and" the Am erican labor m ust not fail to take into, account..^ Hoover’s MeaaTricki How suspicious some of them are! T here’s Mr. H orr, Republican Con gressman from W a-hiugtori, who had planued to attend the Repub lican Convention in Seatle, last Saturday where he intended to push through a referendum planlt, hav ing .engaged passage on an ail plane. A sK o rr figures it out, the schem ing Mr. Hoover got wind 61 his plan',and concocted a wicked p h t to thw art it. On the day H o t had prepared to set sail, the Presi dent invited him to a white House dinner, and, the invitation being virtually a command, H orr showed up for the occasion. T hen the Pres’d.-nt, afler the dinner was over, detained H orr bv one excuse or a- nother, until late in the night. Not to be foiled, however, he got a plane at 3 o’clock in the morn ing, but o n t h e way his plane encounted a storm which. Hoover “ probably knew w a s com ing,” and which delayed him at Salt Lake, while at Seattle ike convention he w anted to get to. was adopting a dry plant. The disappointed wet cham pion, Iiow ever, dees not hold M r.

Hodges, President of the A dvertising Federation of A merica, has completed a study of the seventeen year records of 120 corporations. S ixty of these corp orations advertised spasmodically, heavily when tidies were good, m eagerly when times were hard, and the other 60 annually increas ed their advertising expenditures at an-average- rate of 16 per cent over the previous year w hether times were good or bad. Mr. H od ges reports that although 17 years ago m any of the 60 companies in this last group were small, today every one of them is num bered a- tuong the foremost business houses of Amdrica. They have m ultipli ed their net assets to four times what they were seventeen years ago. Last year their combined net profits were three tim es greater than iu the comparatively good year of 1915. T urning to the other side ol the picture to see w hat hap pened to the other 60 companies, the ones that pursued an erratic and uncertain advertising policy, Mr. H odges said: Seventeen years ago every one of the 60 firms in this erratic-group was an im port ant national husiness. Today more than half of them ' have lost their position of im portance and may have perished. ” It-pays to adver tise. Mocksvilie ^egro High Will of W. R. Craige Recorded in Davie.

The W ets- have made -many blunders. Consider five of them : 1. Blunder num ber one is their contention that legalization the li quor tiaffic would control it; put the bootlegger and speakeasy out of business and reduce crim e, when tiie facts, easily ascertained,--con clusively show that bootleggers and speakeasies flourished when we had » the licensed liquor traffic in= this country; that they flourish now in both Canada and England, in which counties crime is on the increase: W here there is ligalized liquor; it is manifestly safer and easier for the bootlegget to conceal his dirty busi ness. T heir contention is false, and will always be until it is suppressed. 2. Blunder num ber two is/their argum ent (?) that because a law is violated it should .be repealed.' To follow that sort of reasoning .’(?), we should repeal our laws against kidnapping, hijacking and bank robbery which we do not seem to be able to enforce any better than we do Prohibition. Prohibition enforcem ent' is „. im proving all the tim e, and is even now as m uch of a success as the en forcement of other criminal laws. 3 Blunder num ber three is their effort to help the tax dodgers,—the big income tax payers, rich m en and big corporations, by putting a liquor tax for the support of the. governm ent on I he diinkers,. who, as everybody knows, will, for the most part, be the laboring men and. the poor. Then why talk about, being the friend of the common peopl-? 4 Bliitidtr num ber four is their, proposal to tell to the brewers and distillers, for a little tax money, the right to'engage in a wholesale lebaucheiy of American manhood, womanhood and childhood w ith their “ beverage of hell ” a sS a m Jones used to call it. This would be the meanest, basest and .biost legrading act of which a huiiiau oeing could be guilty., Oiie m ust oe utterly devoid of all conscieuce who would sell virtue for money. 5. B lunder.num ber five is their contention that the best way to handle the liquor traffic is to have Prohibition bv States, where ft is wanted. .One m ust bew oefuljy ig norant who does not know= that we made a thorough trial of . that plan in this country; and because it was found to be utterly im practi cable, the A m etican people enacted N ational Prohibition. ; T he whole army of the U nited States m ulti plied four times, would not.be a force sufficient to prevent rum ru n ning across the countless miles of . State boundaries to protect the nor mally dry states from the avarici ous rum -runners. It. is evident that the W ets , just sim ply w ant liquor, or else they, are In the em ploy of, or truckling to. the brew ers, distillers and foreign liquor dealers and wine grow ers, whose only desire is to make m oney o u t; of this nefarious and cbaracter-di s- troying traffic.

T he latch striug is on the outside. M auy farm ers and town folks who failed to pay their 1931 taxes in Davie county for lack of tunds, are wondering why the county com m issiocers are advertising this pro perty to be sold in June while-other counties in the state have postpon ed the sale of lands for taxes until next fall. It appears at this w rit ing that the county will have to bid in practically all of this property, which takes about a page and a half in a newspaper to adveitise H eretofore T he Record carried all the land advertised in not much more than a half page. W e were told a few weeks ago that if the demo crats waited until the first M onday in Novem ber to sell the lands that • they would be defeated—that the election would take place about that tim e and th a t the folks would all.be mad.

Says Mr. Brnm- niilt: T here are two classes of persons entitled to vote by this m ethod: (A ) Those who are absent from the countv on the day of the pri mary or election; or (B ) Those who, on the day of the prim ary or election, are physi callv unable to attend the polling place for the purpose of voting in person. ; . W ith respect to the first class, a person must, be actually out of the county on rhe dav of the prim arv or election In order, to avail him self o: the privilege thus granted. If he returns to the county at any time during the voting hours of that day, the absentee ballot which he m ay have left should not be used. W ith respect to the second class, there must be actual physical ina bi ily to go to the polling place for the purpose of voting. This, pt course, m ust he interpreted reason ably, bnt strictly, so that no elec tor who is physically able to go to the polls and vote shall be perm it ted to tast a ballot bv the absentee method. Certificates are provided for each class to sign under oath. T heoatb of the physically disabled is snffi cient, or in lieu thereof lhere may be the certificate Of a physician.

VwT he Governm ent has billions to help'the railroads and the banks, but not a dollar to help the littie fellpw.” - T his is the refrain we hear with tiresom e iteration from Democratic orators and newspapers, all the wav from Governor Roosevelt to the Bingville Bugle W ell, let us see. W hen the Reconstruction F in ance Corporation saves a bank in some comparatively small commun- . ity'—and they are the banks it has b&en saving, tor the record shows tliat:;86.4 per cent, of the banks that have borrowed up to date are loca ted in towns of 25,000 or less, and oniy^5 3 per cent, of the money loaned has been loaned to banks lo cated iu cities of a million and over ■ ^it preserves the savings laid aside by the family for a rainy day from being tied up indefinitely in a sus pended bank. It m akes available to the m erchant and m anufacturer ^ of that town the current deposits and the credit facilities which he heeds to keep his small business going. Isn’t that helping the lit tie fellow? And how about the railroads? T he impression prevails In many quarters that the railroads of the United States are the private prop erty.of a very few very rich men. Even if that were true. Which it is not, it would not change the fact that the railroads are the backbone of the trausportat;on system of the country, that they are the largest employers of labor, th it they are one of the largest purchasers ot raw and fabricated materials of all kinds, and that their underlying securities to the - extent of many billions of dollars are held by the grear fiduciary institutions, such as insurance companies aud savings banks, which means that indirect ly there is invested iu them the savings of the American people. T o m aintain the credit of the rail • roads, therefore, to prevent tdem from going into bankruptcy, is vaftly more than to safeguard the capital of a fe^v rich men. It is to provide em ployment for thousands ef men and to secure the savings ot milllocs of individual citizens. W hen a railroad goes into receiver ship raen are discharged, capital im provements are suspended, pur chases fall off. securities are depre dated and service to the public is curtailed. These are the funda m ental reasons w hy railroads were included in reconstruction legisla tion intended sto strengthen and protect our national economy. " A nd so it is through the entire list of those institutions which are Biithorized to borrow from the Re construction Finance Corporation. Railroads, m ortgage companies, building aud loan associations, joint stock land banks, agricultural cred it corporations and the like are all affected w ith a public interest. T heir stability and their successful functioning not only sustains the N ational credit structure, but pro tects the individual citizen and pro m otes his prosperity. T o m aintain that the Reconstruc tion" Finance Corporation operates exclusively .for the benefit of the rich and the great and holds no benefits for the ‘ little fellow” is nrit only rank dem agoguery but is in direct contravention af obvious facts. T he drug stores in Tennessee are apparently slipping. W e note in an exchange were a cafe sells motor car 'rear view m irrors and clocks; a, garage sells peanuts, chewing gum ahS'soda w ater and a filling station takes orders for fire wood. Si level headed man never shows Up to better; advantage than when Jjie^iises tajsfceak in a public meet ing •' where most of the speeches b are been of a rrdical nature. A bill collector will always stand up, for the man who pays his bills. He may wear patched trousers but if he writes his check cheerfully for j w hat he owes each month, it will cover a m ultitude of sins. | tti Evidently Love Their Lager. If we were a big political organiza tion, such as Tatnmany Hall claims it is, hanged if we. wouldn’t pull down our sign and quit if we could n ’t produce an “ outstanding” can didate for the Presidency who . had no higher aspirations than to have all the beer handy that.he can soak into his hide. When "Al Smith was running in 1928. he reared up on his hind legs and made the public-statement: ” 1 long to see the day come when I can put my foot again on a brass rail and blow the froth off a m ug of cold beer.” And now comes Franklim p Rooser velt, in a speech in LaCfosse1 Wis consin, and in answer to a hearer’s question as to how he stood on booze, Roosevelt yelled !back: “ la m W et.” And when another hearer shot back to him: Al right. Governor. I will see to it that you get a good glass of foam ing lager when you come back as President,’’ Roosevelb pointed to the man and answered: “ Don’t forget that, BECAUSE I’LL REMEMBER IT.” Now ain’t that a heck of a pros pect for a man hoping to be elected President of the United States? For don’t forget the fact that Tammany made Roosevelt what he is today. —Yellow Jacket. Pleasure Recalled By Older Boys.” N o reo f the "older boys,” espe cially in the rural country, will ever forget some of the things -they did and enjoyed during, their boyhood days. Among the num ber is the following: When we made the first plunge of the season into the old mill stream ; trudged a mile through the under brush to reach a carefully beeluded meeting place for the village gang; knew where the fish began , to bite first; -where the fox grades were' most abundant, which towering oak with its entwined vines made the best place for a tree house with, the neccessary exit ropes, which trolly car offered the best opportunity for a blind ride; the days we cooked po tatoes in the ground under a small camp fire and thought they were a mong N ature’s m ost delicious-gift.*; when the springboard over the swim ming hole fairly talking as we made one fancy dive after another; when we wished we were in the Army or the Navy every tim e we saw a pa rade and heard the band strike up a fam iliar air. W e waited for the first troubadour of the spring and followed him for hours as he seren aded one household after another; we followed the organ grinder and his mrnkev on his rounds and be came entranced with the music the organ gave forth; the day a t the cir cus when nothing was so good as a drink of red lemonade nor a man so clever as the barkers in front of the sideshow tents; the breath-taking perform ances of the trapeze artists; the death-defying acts in. the lions and tigers’ cages; the fearless little women who placed themselves a t the mercy of an elephant; we all wanted to be pitcher on the village baseball team and would not play unless we could pitch at least one inning of the game; the first football gam e of the season and how we wanted to be backfield men and saw.no excuse for oeing a linesman and doing all of the bucking and getting none of the glory: oflr ambition was to.be a rail road engineer nr a great baseball player like “ Home Run” Baker or Christy Mathewson; our first trip to the m ountains or the seashore was the most ad enturous experience of lives, and how we w ant to get that first pair of long trousers b u t: were afraid to put them on for fear some older boys would pull up the leg and find we were still wearing s ockjngs instead of socks and the conventional garter? No! W e cannot forget those days. They will remain as our most cherish ed memories.—Twin City Sentinel. Hoover is calling in the hoarded j money because this fall there is an ^kqtion. ‘ !
