Pretty Poor Business. We do not know the object of the organizers of the so-called "Hoover cart” parades in Wayne and Lenoir counties but if it was to bring into ridicule and contempt the President of the United Slates it was a pretty sorry business. It was about on par with the slander­ ous charge made in 1920 that Mr. Harding was a person of mixed blood. Mr. Hoover is the President of the United States and will be until the fourth of next March, if no longer. He was elected by the biggest vote that any President has ever gotten. He is respected and admired by millions of people in foreign lands, as well as by mil­ lions of his own conntrymen. President Hoover is probably the most influential mau in the world today. The great office which he fills and fc - own character certainly entitle him tobe treated with res­ pect.—Beaufort News. Comment on the Hoover Speech. Henry Ford, Dearborn, Mich: Your fire in the Liucoln Court House is still burning and this moruiug I added a log to it. Every one whom I have seen is greatly heartened by the evidence you have given of a strong grasp of affairs and of courage and energy in dealing with these times. The speech will have a tremendous ar.d permanent effect in stabilizing the thought of the people. I think all our citizens are proud of their President today. Henry L Stoddard, former pub lisher of "The Evening Mail” of New York: Your speech is the most candid, thorough and enlight­ ening outline of the nation's prob­ lem and of the efforts and purposes of the administration that any President has ever made Stanley High, editor of "The Christian Herald,” New York: As a dry. I welcome your courageous prohibition declaration. It opens a way lor the nation’s dry forces to return to the fight against liquor. Please count on my support in any possible way. Colonel Frank M. Knox, publish­ er, "The Chicago Daily News:” A great and notable state paper. It will rally to your support millions of voters who have been in a doubt ful state of mind. Walter P. Chrysler, automobile manufacturer, New York: It was most effective, forceful and frank aud no one can have any doubt where you stand or what your posi tion is. Senator Arthur Capper, dry Re publicau, of Kansas: No fair- minded man can fail to appreciate the soundness and the sincerity of your proflram. Your speech is a well-grounded foundation upon which we can build for a successful campaign. R. R. Moton, president Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala.: There has been no address or state paper since Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address that compares with it in clarity, force and genuine statesmanship. Traffic Bound In Davie State road officials selected a type of surfacing known as traffic bound macadam for the Fork-Mocksville link of Highway 90, the sore toe of the North Carolina highway system; Doubtless this will be a splendid sur­ face and one with lasting qualities when it is finally in condition to be conveniently used by the public. Those few motorists who have been over this link since the new grade was covered by several inches of stone about the size of guinea eggs need little description of what the first step in making traffic bound macadam is like. The highway build­ er supposes that enough traffic can be forced over the road to do the parking of the stone until it is ready for a layer of finer stone and a bind­ er dressing. But there are signs that the driver who struggles through this six miles of sliding, sharp-edged stones, seek to go another way next time, thus delaying the binding of stone keeping the road out of use for a longer time. The state has done a most excellent job of relocating this road and the average driver wilt need little more than half the time to make the dii- tance been Fork and MocksviIIe that safe driving demadded over the old route. - But the chances are that it will be a good while yet before a really usable surface wilt be avail­ able there, unless the state uses some other metnod to bihd the surface than the action of regular traffic. This method not only is extremely vexatious to drivers, , and unsafe if much traffic should try the way, but it is probably not exactly beneficial to tires.—Lexington Dispatch. Remember, everyone has to Io his own suffering for no one will nor can do it for him. What Welfare People Find. "Many thousands of pounds of flour have been distriputed among the needy” of Mooresville commu­ nity within the past two months, savs the Enterprise. But a check-up on some of the families by the we! fare agency revealed that not all the flour secured had been used to feed the family. Here is the disclosure: In eight families, (here were found 27 children and 45 dogs, one family alone possessing the insignifi­ cant number of 11 canines. The can­ vass carries the statement that of 18 families, there are 58 children and 53 dogs. The latter statement em­ braces the eight families already re­ ferred to: Only one of the 18 is a negro, and his familv consists of him­ self and wife, two children and five dogs. That took care of (he dogs. It is presumed that the people mention­ ed will either surrender dogs or sur­ render the privilege of eating bread made of government flour. But here is some more: Ic was also found that one of the 18 families being served by the wel­ fare agency, has an outoracbile. The man of the house traded a perfectly good mich cow for an old Hudson car, and operates that car practically every day. A farmer in an adjoining county gave his tenant an order on the wel­ fare agency here for a sack of gov­ ernment flour. Of course, the local agency was not supposed to take care of the order, it being out of the district. But on questioning the ten­ ant it was learn that on his part of the land he and tne Iandlond had narvested more than 200 bushels of wheat. When told he would have to go to his county seat for the flour the tenant said: "Well, that settles it. I’ll have to take some grist to the mill and get my own flour.” Items like the foregoing are cal­ culated to discourage the charitable. AU of us are more or less su picious than many people are obtaining aid who are able to do something for themselves if they are not sel !-sus­ taining. And when facts like the foregoing are brought out that is ac­ cented as confirmation of the suspi­ cion, which tends to suppress the charitable impulse, to cause us to turn a deaf car to the call of need. Everybody knows there is always imposition in such cases. There are people who will eat the bread of idlt- ness so long as they are permitted, l'here is no perfect system on earth, nothing is absolutely free from a- ouse. But the foregoing is printed to call attention to the tact that wel­ fare agencies check up on applicants and the unworthy are eliminated. That is wby persons capable of ir.- evestigaling and determining needs as nearly as possible must be em­ ployed for the welfare work. Separ­ ating the worthy from the unworthy is a ne er ending task. But is done by conscientious welfare wurkers, as neariy as it can be done. There is imposition. Bometimes this imposi­ tion could be checked and exposed if the people who know had the courage to inform the welfare of ficer. That doesn’t mean passing rumors and suspicions around but information that is dependable or is worthy of investigation. There are always people who seem to feel that so long as something is given away they should have their share of it, whether they are in need or not. Es­ pecially is this true with reference to anything coming from the govern­ ment-such as the flour that has been distributed. AU of us feel that government property is ours. We should feel that way and lend our efforts to provent the the abuse of government largess. It is assumed that the Mooresville man who sold his cow for an auto mobile, in which he rides while his family is served bv charity, will be given attention. A Statesville man who visited in another State recent­ ly found that the welfare agency there gives nothing to owners cf cars. That might be a bit hard under some conditions—sav the car was used help to.make a living. But as a general proposition people depend- A Forfeited Bond. A couple of high grade rum run ners—they were from Detroit and were said to be convoying a .valu­ able cargo—were seized in Lum- berton last February. Convicted in the recorder’s court and sent­ enced to 18 months on the roads they appealed and put up bonds of $r,obo each iu cash—bills of the denomination of $500. They wert expected (o default on the bonds, and did. Robesonians anticipated $2,000 for the school fund. When the case was Small in the Superioi court Judge Small reduced the for feiture to $1,500 and orderibg the remaining $500' paid to defendants’ attorneys. May be entirely legal and regu­ lar for all we know, but it does ex­ cite special wonder. The Jf12,000 was bond money. If their lawyers didn’t collect from the rum run tiers in advance that was their fault as well as their misfortune AU forfeitures go to the school iund. The court may reduce the forfieture in his discretion. Possibly the rum runners have fallen on hard lines and had besought their counsel, by long distance communication, to do tbeir best to save them a bit of that bond money. But the inference is that the rum runners either hadn’t been paid or they felt that had something extra ,.oming and that the $500 taken off the forfeited bond—taken from the school fund —was for the use and behoof of the attorneys. If that is it—and it is legitimate iuference—Judge Small was most kind to them in collect­ ing their fee for them. His honor proDably had a fellow feeling. Law­ yers have a hard time collecting their money, as other folks, but they have a big advantage it the court is with them.—Greensboro News. About Wheat Prices. From 1921 to 1929, when wheat was bandied in the "normal wav” about which the grain dealers have so much to say, the price of wheat in Chicago was sixteen and a half cents below the price in Liverpool. From the middle of July. 1929, wheu the Farm Board was set up, the Chicago price has averaged only five cents Delow the Liverpool price—and it costs fifteen ceuts a bushel to ship wheat from Chicago to Liverpool. The pi ice of wheat is cruelly low. There is no doubt about that. But that it would be lower by at least ten cents except for the tariff and the Farm Board there can be no doubt. That is something for the wheat farmer to tbiuk about. No Cornelius Tax Rate At the last meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Cornelius, Mecklenburg county, it was decided not to levy any tax for the year 1932. Heretofore the levy has been 50c on the $100 but the town has an accu­ mulated surplus sufficient to meet all operating expenses for a year, hence no tax will be collected. Old papers for sale. ent on charity can’t afford to up­ keep of a car. As for the farmer who tried to get some of the govern­ ment flour while he had an abund' ance of wheat—it would be impos­ sible to properly characterize him in language that would get through the mails. It disturbs to learn that there are people of that kind—who would take bread from the mouths of hungry and destitute while they conservee abundance resources. But keep in mind that the abuses are comparatively few and are soon tesminated. There can be no excuse for denying the call of need on the pleas that charity is abused. To do that would let the deserving suffer because there are a few unworthy. That doesn't stand up.—Statesville Daily. New York Claimed For G. 0. P. New York.—A claim that Gov ernor Roosevelt “is already recon­ ciled to the loss of New York state” in tne presidential election was made by F. Trubee Davision, as­ sistant secretary of war and guber- natioral aspirant. "And without New York's elec total votes,” Davison continued, "the Democrats will not be able to win.” “He said his "contacts” arouud the stane indicated lo him that “President Hoover’s strength i- gaining every day.” Davison said he was in Omaha 01. au airplane tour of the country at the time the Presideutdeliveredhis acceptance speech. "The next day,” Davision said, ‘I circulated around the city and talked to numerous people. Their enthusiasm was amazing. They said many votes had been switched overnight.” Senator Felix Hebert, eastern manager, announced that women’s campaign activities will be directed from here. States whose campaign will be directed from eastern head­ quarters are: North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Virginia among others. Effect of Advertising. An exchange offers an interesting item explaining the effect of adver Using. The story of twentv-five meu who advertised and twenty-five men who didn’t is worth re telling: "Here is what happened to fifty typical business men in the retail trade. "Because ‘times were dull’ twenty-five of these business men cut out their newspaper advertising iud like the ostrich that buried its head in the sand they stood still. "The other twenty ffve kept np their advertising, and increased iheir usual business ’gait.’ Their sales stepped up from 20 to 38 per cent. Printers ink kept the 'red ink' off their books. “The classical character describ ed as a chiefs ainang ye takin' ootes, investigated tne up and downs of the business meu, and discovered that the twenty five who advertised had concluded that inas much as the national government was backing the whole nation with its billions of dollars in resousces that it was up to them to back their owu communities and its insti tutions. Bo they kept on going, as usual. "It was Wordsworth who remind­ ed us that the man of ‘cheerful yesterdays’ always has his ‘confi dent tomorrows ’ ”—Ex. The Cope Reunion.

Another reason why Speaker Garn­ er should never be elected Vice Presi­ dent is that in a speech made in New York one day the past week he ac­ knowledged that he began voting when he was 19 years old. The laws ! of the land do not permit minors to vote yet here is a man, a candidate for the second highest office in the land boasting that he violated the election laws of the country. This is as bad as voting dead men like they ,do in North Carolina,—Ex, Discord Among The Garner Heirs. Discord among the several hund­ red people in Davidson'and adjoin­ ing counties who rate heirship to the reputed Herny Garner estate in St. Louis, appeared in a mass meeting attended by approximately 300 peo­ ple at Lexington Thursday night which had been called by T. I. Cau­ dell of Mocksville, who had been named chairman of a group, at a former meeting'. A vote was taken to support a proposal that a repre­ sentative be named to work with John Lhilip Garner in the task of lining up claims for the reputed es­ tate, valued at many million dollars. John Philip Garner, Californian, who has been in this section work­ ing on familv data for more than a year with a view of making aTtry for this estate did not attend; the mass meeting and it was stated that he had paid no heed to an invention to be present. He was not without his defenders in the meeting, how­ ever, some spokesmen being urged to not interfere with the work he has been pursuing, reputedly at bis own expense, for a year and a half or more. Henry Garner, nativaof Davidson county, is reputed to have owned 40 acres of land near the trading, post of St. Louis more than a century ago, but gave a 99-year lease on it before coming back to Davidson county to visit bis aged father, Philip Garner, pioneer of the family in this section, Henry died in David­ son, and now it is reported that the lease has expired and that descend­ ants of Henry's brothers and sisters, scattered over a number of states, but a majority centered in this sec­ tion. may be heirs to millions, since tne city is reputed to have extended over the farm completely. John Pnilip Garner has made sev­ eral trips to Washington, reputedly to confer with governor officials in the matter and has traced out lines of kinship for Beveral hundred peo­ ple in this section, quite a number of whom have delegated power of at­ torney to him. Others are reputed to have declined the power of attoi- neyship, and Ben Tysinger, of High Point, is reported now iu Bt. Louis making an investigation on behalf of these. Some funds w, re subscribed to support his work.—Union Repu­ blican. Some Logic In It. Recently, we reprinted an edit­ orial from the Morganton News- Herald which discussed the idea of paving city taxes monthly along with the water and light bill. * So much favorable comment has been made in the press of the state that it seems a step in that direbtiou might be taken sometime in the future And why not? ' It is a logical suggestion. For instance if a citizen Ot North Wilkesooro pays $36 00 per year in town taxes, it would be much easier for him to pay $3.00 per month along with his water bill than it would, on the average, for him, to scrape up the total amount along about the time the tax collector announces that he is going to adver­ tise the delinquents. Installment paying would not require any more money and it would seem a lot easier. Many a mau finds it difficult to lay: up much of a nest egg Ior tax payments but would, if required, find some way to pay a small bill each month. To us it seems a very practical plan. At least it might be given a trial and if results were not- up to expectations, it could be dHi&rd- ed.—Wilkes Iournal. ^ Give me the money that has ’been spent in war, and I will clothe every man, woman and child in an attire of which kings and queens would be proud. I will build a schoolhouse in every vrlley hver the whole earth. I will crown avery hillside with a place of worship consecrated to the gospe of peace.—Henry Ward Beecher, tH E DAViI re c o r d , MdCicsV iL il, N. t . SEPT EM B E R j, *9j i THE DAVIE RECORD. C.

Jake Newell for United States Senator this fall. M r. Newell is a prohibitionist, running on a dry platform Robert Reynolds, dem o­ cratic nominee, is a wet, running on a wet platform. Thousands of good democrats throughout the state are going to vote as they pray this'falj. It wouldn’t surprise us if-Editor Santford M artain, of the W inston Salem Journal, didn’t slip a vote in for Jake when the final hour arrives. W e heard a democrat making an argum ent last week that surprised us m uch and would surprise Bob Reynolds even more. T he dem o­ crat was contending that Jake Newell was just as wet as Bob Rey­ nolds. W e will subm it this ques tion to anyone who is acquainted w ith the two gentlemen and let them decide the question. Newell and Reynolds are both good friends of T he Record editor, but we will say that if Jake was any dryer than he is and Bob was any wetter, Jake would burn up and Bob would drown. T hey are both m ighty fine fellows. Contract For Road Let. Contract for grading the 2.44 mile link of road from Pearson to Coolee mee, was let last week to Kirkm an Brothers of M t. A iry, N . C.

Zimmerman Reunion. The Zimmermon family held their an­ nual reunion at th? old home place near the bank of the Yadkin River, August 28. More than 20U friends and relatives eu •joyed the occasion together. Each family brought along an abund ance of food and at the noou hour a real picnic was enjoyed. Indeed, the sight of the long, laden table gave no one a feel ing of a depression. It was said that a bout 30 big cakes adorned this table to say nothing of the other tasty foods. One huge cake especially designed with the letters, “Zimmerman Reunion/' was placed near the center of the table. No big speeches were made at the oc casion but a continuous and pleasant chat prevailed throughout the day. It was in­ deed a pleasant get together meeting. Those of the immediate family attending were: Mr and Mr?. J. G Zimmerman and family, Mr and Mrs. 0. D. Zimmerman and family, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. "Zimmerman, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Minor and children.

A big reason-for the wide popularity of the John Deere harrow is that its teeth don’t work loose or become lost. The 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 the end rails prevent the tooth bars from catching on trees or vines. A spring relief on each lever permits the harrow teeth to pass over roots, stones, or other obstructions without being damaged. We can furnish the Universal in one, two, three, and four sections, with either 25 or 30 teeth to the section. Martin Brothers -i (Bit asm seeaRB. MoaavtttE. s.

Raleigh.—With A. D. MacLean. of Beauford county, and R. M. Hanes, of Forsyth, as senatorial no­ minees and virtually conceded seats ii toe North Carolina state senate in 1933. Raleigh officialdom is begir- ning seriously to think that a sales tax next year is inevitable with these two legislators leading the fight for a general tax. Though they refuse to be quoted Borne of the leaders of the anti-sales tax fight in the 1931 general assem­ bly are privately conceding that every indica'ion is that some form of sales tax will be enacted by the 1933 general assembly. There seems to be little doubt in the -minds of most petsons who say they have studied the list of nomi­ nees to the lower houses but that the house will enact a sales tax mea­ sure. The fight—as it was in the 1931 assembly—will be in the senate. Our anti-seles tax man, who claims to have direct reports on the posi­ tion or every nominee to the state senate, lists 30 of the 5u men most likely to be elected as opposed to a sales tax and 20 for one form of sale tax. Which form of sales tax will win out is the main question here. McLean, Hanes and half a dozen other senators are reported as reedy to lead the fight for the general tax John W, Hinsdale, of Wake, is ready to champion the luxury tax claim now they have 18 favorable nomi­ nees. General sales tax advocates claim 36 adherents. He Is Asleep.

Arresting Sons. » The constable of Traphill township, county of Wilkes, recently arrested his son for drunkness and took hiin before a magistrate who imposed a fine. This was considered so unasual that it appears as a conspicuous item in the daily papers. Which means that an officer so conscientious that hn would arrest his son, his father, brother or any otlier member of his family, or an intimate friend, is the exception. It is not expected. Which means further that we expect our officers to discriminate, to make exceptions as these exceptions may apeal for personal and other reasons. In other words, we don’t expect our officers to be honest and just We expect theni to be respecters of per­ sons. Very often they are; aud they are because we expect them to be that way, so much so that we call all to witness if they conscientiously observe their oaths of office and are not respecters of persons, as the Trap hill constable, name of P. C. Duncan. Well, you might say it is “like peo­ ple like officers,” to change the adage a bit. If the people expect officers to discriminate in the discharge of their duties the officers more than likely will. If the peole insist there be ' either fear, favor nor affection in the administration of the law de­ mand itin theory not only but in fact supporting the officer in his fearless impartiality, even tbough one’s own be called to taw—in such improbable event there would be no occasion to bulletin Conctable Dun­ can for arresting his son for frac­ turing the statutes. The constable would be published only when he fail­ ed to arrest the son if the son was in need of arresting. Talking about fathers arresting sons, one of the big things the mat­ ter with this country is the failure of fathers to arrest sons. If the old man made a regular practice of ar­ resting the boy when his conduct shows that he is getting out of line; of bringing him up short, not neces- sarly with harshness — that may spoil it all—but with a kindness and a firmness that will impress; if all fathers began early to arrest their bops, before the get old enough to defy the order of arrest, and the ar­ rest is effectively made, with a les­ son that will remain, there wyuld be much less work for constables and policemen and sheriffs and all other arresting officers. Not only the boys arrested by their pas early and as often as necessary will go straight. Toere is no perfection here below. But wen the boy is taught at home about the arresting, drilled in it, so to speak, he will have more respent for authority when he gets away from home. His natural bent will be that way because of the training. -Statesvill^ Daily.______ Hoover Will Be Helped By Drys. Washington, Aug. 23.—Reaffir­ ming his endorsement of President Hoover and predicting his re-elec- lion, Dr. Daniel A. Poling, chair­ man of the Allied Forces for Prohi­ bition, today made public a letter from the chief executive, saying they were on common grounds In a desire to rid this civilization of the evils of the liquor traffic.” To this Mr. Hoover added a statement that "we may not all a- gree on methods,” and proceed to outline the stand he expressed in his ucceplance speech for state de­ termination of the liquor problems with federal guarantees against the retnru of the saloon and wet inva­ sion of dry states. In a response to a shower of questions frotn-reporters, Dr. Poling expressed the opinion that Mr. Hoover is "decisively, personally and politically dry.” At the same time he described Governor Roose­ velt as "personally dry and politi cally wet ” The executive committee ot the allied forces has voted 192 to 19 to endorse Mr. Hoover, Dr. Poling said although its membership is divided on the president’s proposed changes in the prohibition laws. “We snpport Hoover with a recognized difference of opinion as to the program that will be followed in the next congress.” Dr. Poling said his organizations will work for the election of dry candidates for the house and senate and that decision as to whom the individuals they will support will be reached on the basis of individual campaigns. Many requests ' for assistance have been received, he added, and an organization of speakers will be put in the field. He placed his organization’s present financial status at $11,000 in cash and $54,000 in pledges. Self-Dependance. I REPUBLICAN COUNTY The first aim of every man, aside from faith in God, should be self- defependence. He should face his own problems, make his own way, fight his own battles. His own mea­ sured by his own faith, courage, daring and strength is thus develop­ ed. If these trying times have taught us anything it is that too much ease isn’t good for us. For a long time we had been getting things almost by wishing for them—in many cases [ they were provided by some one else on whom we had come to rely. We had about made up our minds that that world owed us a living, and it was up to us to collect in the simplest and easiest way. We are getting along pretty well at the job until something happened to the other fellow’s machinery and we didn’t have enough mechanical insight to even suggest how to fix it. We had formed the habit of depend­ ing on others, and had been busily engaged in paying the price for our laziness. The other day we ran across an old school-mate, now an honored re ligious leader who has been success­ ful and helpful to his fellowman, be­ cause while he practiced self reliance he never lose the common touch. That preacher worked his way through college—at the woodpile. The only discomforting memory, when we grasped his hand after many years was the recollection that we had paid him a pittance for dumping an armful of firewood at our door each evening. Had we been strengthening our sinews a- Iongwith self-dependence, in those days back yonder, we would be stronger in both. We are guilty of dodging respon­ sibility and seeking the easy way out. It might have been better for all of us had we made hard work bf an easy job.—Elkin Tribune. A survey of developments reported within the last week in the textile, shoe and other industries of New England, and made public by the NewEngIand council, showed con­ tinued trend toward better business.

Passed a corn field the other day where a misguided farmer was en gaged in the onerous and unprofit able task of pullin' fodder. But most Union county farmers have gotten away from ihat bad habit. They, instead, are fflling their barns with fine lespedeza bay as forage tor livestock. Pullin’ fodder caused me to leave the farm. One hot September afternoon while workin’ at top speed raking fodder blades from the stalks thus damaging the corn more than said fodder was worth, a big yellow wasp stung me on the end of a fing er. Did I cuss? I did not, for in them good old days swearin’ had not yet been invented, but I did wish for some strong words that could have been used under stress of great provocattou, Instead I sat down aud, kid as I was; bewailed my lot. Had our farm been producing les­ pedeza aud had the roads been in such condition that one could have driven a milk wagoii to town, it is within the realm of possibility that today instead ol tryiu' to run a newspaper, I would nave been a prosperous dairyman. So, my friends, it often happens that a slight incident, like a wasp sting for instance, may cnange one’s view­ point and activities throughout life.—Gene Ashcraft, Monroe En quirer. It Is a Big Job. Just as au illustration of the mul- tipliicity of important matters that must have the attention of the Pres­ ident of the United States here is a paragraph from a Washington pa­ per of recent date. “President Hooverand Secretary of State Stimson last night were exerting all possible pressure to sub due the seething situations in South America. ToAmericaudiplomatic representatives in Peru, Chile, Uru­ guay, Argentina, Paraguay, Boliva and Biazil were sent instructions to offer their good services’ to the ends of peace. Asthesecounlriesboiled with strife and with intranationa! disputes, Hoover and Stimson tem­ porarily forgot the European situa tion, apparently oelieving the South American situation to be grave.” To be President of the United States in such times as these is the biggest job in the world. Fortun­ ate it is for America, and for all the rest of the world as well, that .we have in that high office a man who measures up to its demands. New York Knows Him. Cl'ntou W. Gilbert, the non parti san political analyst, has been in New York and this is his estimate of the situatiou there: “A visit to New York City reveals a degree of opposition to Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt there and in the suburban region around New York of which the only parallel is to be found in the opposition to Bryan in 1896. Every person I met told me the same thing, that he had intended to vote the Demo­ cratic ticket this year but that now he could not. There was a curious certainty in the minds of the per- sous I talked to; it was if no seusible person could think of intrusting the Democratic candidate with author­ ity to administer thenation’s aff airs.” The Democratic nominee for President has solved the tariff prob Ietn all by himself. In his latest speech he proposes a tariff high e- nough to maintain the American standards of wages and living, and low enough to permit foreign na­ tions to ship so many goods into our markets that the profiit on them would pay the debts those nations owe us. To Gov. Roosevelt’s way of thinking it is all just as simple as that, Dr. Smith Raps Politi­ cal Wets. High Point, Aug. 29 —Bombard ing liquor aud the reapealists with a fiery and vigorous eloquence, Dr Henry Louis Smith, presidem emeritus of Washington and Lee University and prominent Southern educator, condemned the wets and their cause, lauucheda lashing at­ tack upon the wet plauk in the Democratic platform and urged his several thousand listeners to vote as they prayed in au address at tnt union church services of the city’s uptown churches on the city lot here lest night Dr. Smith made it clear that he held no brief for those who seek to repeal the Eighteenth Amendment, and those who heard him had little doubt of which way his vote would be cast in the forthcoming election The former university head said that he was a Democrat, by both tradition and heredity, but that he did not propose to allow democracy to make prior position to that of Christianity. He made. it clear that he could not vote for the Detno cratic candidate for president 111 No vemher’s balloting. The idea of state’s rights aud state control he ridiculed asserting there is no such thiug as sta'e control wheu airplanes can carry liquor from oue state to another with comparative ease. The speaker discussed. the wet plank in the platform of the Demo­ crats aud lashed it with a vigorous tongue, Tbe hope of the dry cause, the speaker indicatedf lies iu the Re­ publican party, but he urged his lis­ teners to vote against a wet candi­ date, regardless of political affilia- iiou. Cr. Smith, speaking on the gener­ al subject of America. Christian­ ity and Alcohol, branded alcohol as the great enemy of Christianity. Alcohol and Christianity, he assert­ ed, cannot live together as friends. Keep prohibition in force for the next four or five years and the fight is Ason The crime wave —the gig- wave which began sweeping this hatiou after the war, will decrease. The use of alcohol, such as would be made generally possible by re­ peal of prohibition law, would tend to increase that crime wave. The speaker outlined what he termed the evils of alcohol in no un­ certain terms, aud his vigorous at­ tack upon the repealists was direct­ ed with the intensity of machine gun fire into the midst of thousands who heard him, many of whom had-not expected a discussion of the ques tion. No Cases Against Davie - Magistrate. W. T. Myers, Republicaujusiice of the peace at Bixby, Davie coun­ ty, who had been indicted by the March, 1932, graud jury for an al­ leged rufusal to issue a warreut when requested to do so by a De mocratic deputy sheriff was turn­ ed loose at Mocksville court when Solicitor Jones requested a uol pros. The grounds for the request being Mr. Myers did not have any blank- warrents at the time and there ap peared to be a personal feeling be tween the justice of the peace and the persons for whom the warrents were requested 011 charges of oper­ ating an automobile under the in­ fluence of whisky.—Uuion Republi can. Cupid Never Gets Too Old. Culminating their brief courtship which lasted only two weeks, Richard P. Byrd, 78 , and Mrs. Pleasant Bass, 63: were married the past week at Erwin. Harnett county. Mr. Bvrd is a widower and both the contracting parties have grown grand' children, Subdued Garner? New York Herald Tribune. To what fount of wisdom did 8peker Garner go on his recent trii to New York City and Albat.y? He boiled over witn defiance of the Presi- Ientand the Republican party gener­ ally dusing the closing days of Con­ gress and on his return to the Texas sagebrush immediately thereafter. It looked as though his loose talk might make him the main issue of tbt campaign. There intervened a fish­ ing trip. Than he came North ti ConsultGovernorRooseveItand th- oarty management. An assistan1 was provided to accompany him and to advise him—to interpret for him the Eastern mind—dgring the re­ mainder of the campaign. Next wefindhim in Waseington, on his way back to Uvalde, on the banks of the Rio Grande. Does he show any anxiety to get out on the bastings to scourge his political op­ ponents? Quite the contrary. Ht will remain quietly in Texas unti "the latest possible date ” There is such a thing as doing too much talk­ ing. It might be better if he went fishing until November. “AU we have to do to win is to make no mis­ takes.” An I, as if emphasizing thai such danger occupies a prominem place in his mind, he consolingly quotes an anonymous Republican friend as expressing the belief that 'Roosevelt and I combined could not make enough blunders to prevent our election.” Anyway, he will take no more chances. the Speaker will not lay himself open again to jibes such as Repre­ sentative Wood, of Indiana, has h url- ed in his direction. Hewas quoted as saying. “I have always done what I thought was best for my country, never varying unless I was advised that two-thirds of the Democrats were for a bill, thd then I voted for it.” “Folks out my way.,” the imp­ ish Mr. Wood has written “want to know if this means you are for the good of thecouu try except when you vote as a Democrat, or do you mean that you put your party ahead of your country, or are you simply try. ing to explain why you went “hay­ wire’during the lastsession of Cm- gresT, and if so where does that leave the Democrats?” Incidentally, the Speaker, passiug on to the great Texas silences, quiet­ ly iossed into the Pjtomac his $1,000,- OOO OOO pork barrel "relief” bill— the one he so strenously advocated in the closing days of the last session. It wasn’t the sort of bill he would have written had he had more time, he explained apologetically to the newspaper correspondents: I wouldn’t happen again. But who kuows hew long this sud­ den conversion may last? Mixing the Roosevelts. A few days ago Paul Bellamy, of Rapid City, S. Dak., president of the Black Hills Transportation Company, related an interestiug ex perieuce He was riding on a train and fell into conversation with a man ,who told him he was going to vote for Frauklin D. Roosevelt, that he would “itke to see a son of T. R. in the White House.” When Mr. Bellamy told the man Franklin D. was not a son of T. R. but ouly a remote relative, he refused to be­ lieve him. The incident impressed Air. Bellamy so strongly that be made a canvass of the passengers in his car and found that more than half of the men and women in it believed that the Demacratic notn inee is the son of Theodore Roose veil! Wbat ironv it is that the name of a great Republican leader should become a menacing Republi can liability! Some critics of the modern age would have 11s believe that the three R’s have been substituted to mean, resting and radio and rag time.

In the face of the evidence, whicf was not denied, and the law as lair down by Judge Harding, a Davidsnt couaty jury decided to free Georgt Younce, former solicitor on trial fot orejury. The public will remembet that Youuce1 then solicitor, a lawyer named Brinkley, and the late Sheriff Leonard, had a drinking partv whicl ended _with Leonard being shot ti death and an innocent bystander be­ ing seriously wounded. When thi inquest began Younce and Binklej testified that they were not drinking that they saw no pistol and didn’t know shot Sheriff Leonard. At t later session of the corner’s jurj they withdrew their former state­ ments and told the truth, which wat that they were all drinking, that Leonard shot the truck driver and while Younce was struggling with the sheriff to prevent his firing a second time the weapon was dis charged and Leonard fatally wound- d. Youncewasindicted for mar- slaughter on account of the death of Leonard and acquitted—properly ac­ quitted because there was no evid­ ence thatheshot Leonard, purposelj at least. The Younce and Brinkley were indicted for perjury and Younct was tried last week. A nol pros wa.- entered in the case against Brinkley when Younce was acqitted. At the trial no evidence was offer­ ed for the defense. It Was not denied that Younce testified falsely at the first hearing. But his counsel at­ tempted to get him off on technical­ ities. The witnesses and the coron­ er's jury were not sworn on the Bible. Thejurorswerenotimpanel ed in the presense of the dead body. Bn these and similar objections the court was asked to dismiss the in •lictment. Judge Harding told the jury that failure to have hand 01. Bible when the oath is administered is not material. He is further ri- oorted by the Greensboro News: “If you find from evidence and Tevond a reasonable doubt that the jurors were summoned to investigate t death and that they uplifted their "nands, knowing that they were tak­ ing the oath which you heard read to you by the coroner, and you find that the coroner, and you find that the coroner did so swear them, though without the actual presence of the Bible, the court instructs you that it was a properly constituted court. The same thing applies to the swearing of a witness without the Bible, pointed ont Judge Hacd- ing. Another bulwark of the def­ ense was torn away by the court when ne instructed the jury that if they found that the coroner's jury came to Lexington to investigate the death of Sheriff Leonard and that although the members were sworn in several blocks away from tht dead body that this would be construed to mean “within the presence of the dead oody,” as intended by the statute. Thecontention that one must have hatid on the Bible to make an oath legal is nonsense, Oaths are often administered with the book formali­ ty, are always so administered to per­ sons who for any reason object to being swon on the book and prefer to affirm. Holding up the hand is just as binding. One doesn’t have to hold up his hand, even. A fore­ man of an Iredell county grand jury years ago insisted cn taking the i-ath with his hands by his side. It was according to his religious principles and it was permitted. The only thing necessary is for one to accept the oath, to listen to its recitation and assert to it. Wnen that is done he is as legally sworn as if the oath had been taken “on a stack of Bibles as high as the court house ” The particular form of oath taken means nothing of itself. The impression with many people is that if one swears falsely and vol­ untarily admits it and correct his testimony before the case is endid, as Younce and Brinkley did, they may in a Bense absolve themselves and should be forgiven. Not legally they can’t. Hear Judge Harding’s instructions to the jury on that point: "If you find that the defendant has made false statements in a court of competent jurisdiction about facts material to the investigation under' The Farmers and Char- ity. The Monroe Enquirer savs that there are many farmers who have Tbcoma disgusted because so many families with able bodied heads are ieing fed from public fuuds. One farmer says that he cannot give a- way a load of wood unless it is cut to the proper length, and that there are ten beggars now where there was one two years ago. The plan of feeding folks for the asking is destined to orove one of he greatest problems vith which the country will have to contend, they claim. It is hard to know how to reply to that criticism - Farmers have suffer­ ed as large a reduction in the remu­ neration they receive for a day’s work as any industrial worker in the land, but, on the other hand, they have not been hungry or cold. Any nan who tills the soil in North Caro­ lina can have food if he will work at ill. On the other hand, the day-by- iay living that the industrial worker Iepends on means that when he loses a days work he does not eat. No­ body can pretend that the men out if work now can help it. Yet it is a fact that the proportion of people who do not mind asking help grows larger each day. The criminal popu­ lation gets larger also, and Robt. Quillen says that a "criminal popu­ lation gets three square meals a day p iid for by a good citizen who is nungry.” It is not easy to see so many peo­ ple out of work fed at public expense nut it is far better than seeing them hungry. R-cently we went; late in the afternoon, to the home of one of the good farmers in this county who lives near two mill villages. Ciming from his house were 21 childrer, each with a bucket of milk. Half apologetically he sp ike. “I can’t sell it for any thing, and I give it to the children,” and added. “They bought it when they had work.” Itappearsthatihis is the better attitude. It is true that there are a few underserving citizens being fed by charity, but it is better that 20 lazy men should be fed than that one little child should go hundrv. The citizens of North Carolina are, on the whole, prettv self respecting. They will come through this thing with the old lime spirit. They had rather work than beg. and they will do it when there is some work for them to do. Incidentally, that parti­ cular farmers missed a trip he very much wanted to make because he had to get in his hay. It would not have hurt the fathers of some of those children who have had his milk all summer to ha e gone over to the meadow and helped with the hay.— Catawba Review. It used to be that men who stole horses were hung for it. Nowa­ days, wheu a man is tried for steal­ ing an auto, it is the jury that is huug. The first loop-tbe loop in an air­ plane was completed by Liucoln Beachey, in the United States. way. corruptly and wilfully, the fact that he afterwards repented and told the truth does not mean that he is not guilty “If I tell a corrupt falsehood to a competent court with intent to de­ ceive that body and alter its deci­ sion. then go home, have a chance of heart, become ecstatically and relig­ iously happy, I am a criminal still. "It matters not whether I tell the falsehood to shield myself or some­ one else. By all the evidence in the case and the law as laid down by the court Younce was guilty. The jury had the decision, however, and itallowed. him to go with a day. Juries some­ time do that—take the bit in their teeth and excuse the accused not be­ cause they have the legal or moral right to excuse him but because they have the power. And since the jury in this case had the last word Younce goes free. The State couldn’t appeal and Younce can’t be tried a- gain for the same offense.—Statea- Yille Daily. *•THE DAVlE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, H. C- SEPTEMBER I4, -932 THE BAVr*»\7 HVlr e. C. FRAKS £T?li'j .

Tliis te call teaching hv example, of “visual education." which i3 the most pow­erful of all teaching It will be impossible in the length of time the school dentist will be in the countv to do all that every child needs. In fact, it is not a purpose of the program. The purpose of the program is to teach Mouth Health. Due to the limited time in the county, number of children will have their mouths examined and will be referred to their local dentists for dental correction. Insofar as possi- every child in the grammar grades will have his ninunih examined bv the school dentist and the parents of those in need of immediate attention will be notified through the mail. In case you receive such a notice we hope you will consider it of sufficient importance to take the child to your family dentist because children with broken down teeth and gum boils are sick and cannot do the same work in school as if they were well. i-, Ir '.1: CT,- Even the Winstoo Ar. strong democratic pin=;, think there should be tigating done i:i re. .

The most scathing and bitter de­ nunciation and indictment of the R. J. Reynolds, Ligget and Myers and American tobacco companies ever heard in Davie county at any time or place was made by Solicitor John R. Iones of Wilkesboro be, fore an overflowing bouse of farm­ ers, dairymen and business men Monday during the adjournment of court due to the absence of Judge P. A. McElroy, of Marshall, who ! opened court late iu the afternoon. Mr. Jones is solicitor of the solicitor of the district and a leading farmer and dairyman of Wilkes county. His address was listened to very attentively and frequently bursts of cheers arose from the throng which packed even the windows and halls of the courtroom. The main theme of his address which lasted about 40 minutes was a request for farmers to quit growing tobacco and selling it at less than cost of production. “The greatest wrong pepetrated against farmers in the history of North Carolina is the fact that R. J. Reynolds, Ligget and Myers and the American to­ bacco companies took tobacco from the farmers for less than cost of pro duction,” Mr. Jones said. “The tobacco manufacturers now have a supply sufficient to last for five years,” the speaker continued. This address and admonishment was of exceptional iuterest to Davie county farmers and very timely as Davie heretofore has been one of the leading tobacco-growing counties of Piedmont North Carolina, but this year have gotten away from it to some extent and aTe specializing on livestock and dairying in an increas ing degree. Mr. Jones urged the farmers to get into the dairy business on a large scale if possible, and if not on a large scale then start with one grade cow. He explained in minute de tail how an earth silo could be built at very little cost to hold enough en­ silage for a herd during the 165 days of the year in which pasturages was not available. Piedmont Carolina offers great opportunties for dairy­ ing withitslongsummerseason and 200 days in which cattle can live off the grass. Get some good cows, treat them kindly and raise your feed on the farm as cheaply as possible were the closing remarks.

JonesHotReply To D. J. Lybook. EditorWiustou Salem Journal:— In a recent issue of the Journal. Mr. Lybrook ill his article entitled "Mr. Lybrook TakesSolicitov Jones to Task” leaves the inference that I was advising everybody iu the Piedmont section to quit raising tobacco aud go into dairying, aud that my reason for delivering tin address was a very good and selfish reason. I told a number of my friends after delivering the address-, that I would arouse the indigna tion aud resentment of the large to­ bacco companies. I am informed that Mr. Lybrook was not even pre­ sent when the address was deliver­ ed He is resentful because I have uttered a great truth with reference to the tobacco industry in this state. The speech was one devoted to encouraging farmers ‘ To Live At Home.” Iinsistedthattue farm­ ers of the Piedmont section should diversify their crops aud quit rais­ ing tobacco until they could re ceive a decent price. I instructed them how' to dig a ground siio, the kind ot legume crops to grow to feed the livestock 011 the farm, in­ cluding cows, horses, hogs aud other animals, how to select good sires and dams, the importance of having purebred animals on the farm, and the proper treatment of livestock. I then' insisted that I wanted the farmers to be iudepend ent aud desired the time to come in North Carolina when the farmers would.have plenty of purebred live stock, good barns, good farms, good schools, beautiful churches, comfortable homes, with pictures 011 the walls and carpets ou the floors, the cliildreu all going to school, comfortably dressed, with the glow of happiness iu their hearts. Anything wrong aoout this, Mr. Lybrook? Did I step on your toes when I insisted that the farmers should 110 longer raise to bacco at less than the cost of pro­ duction? Was there anything wrong iu my stating that the big tobacco interest had purchased more tobacco than would be manufactur­ ed iu the next three years? That the p;ice iu some degree must be governed by supply and demand? Was auything wrong in my telling the farmers that many ot them had already beeu reduced to proverty? That last year's crop was sold at a tremendous sacrifice, and the sweat, the toil, the sacrifice and the dis­ appointment of hundreds of thous­ ands of farmers had gone into the effoit to pioduce tbe crop and that the tobacco was purchased at a miserable low..price? That; they could no longer continue to afford to produce tobacco? Did I commit an unpardonable sin when I insist­ ed that R J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, Liggett-Myers, aud the American Tobacco Company de­ clared a sum total of about eighty million dollars dividends notwith­ standing that they had bought the farmers toDacco for less than the cost of production, aud that the very time these dividends were be­ ing declared that many of the homes of the tobacco tanners were being sold to pay their taxes and. pay off mortgages? Have not the farmers of the Piedmont section helped to build the gigantic manufacturing industries iu the city of Winston- Salem? Have not they contributed their part in the building of the city where magnificent banks schools aud churches and luxurious homes exist, and then when their homes were being sold from under them, they cried out for bread and were given a stone? Anything wrong about this Mr. Lybrook? I told the farmers at Mocksville to quit raising tobacco until the to­ bacco companies were willing to enter into a coutract with the farm­ ers of the Piedmont section to pay a tipulated price for various grades, and the contract .should be signed before the crop was planted. Mr. Lybtook, a contract is an agree meiit between two or more parties to do or not to do a particular tliiug. When a farmer’s tobacco is put on Iiacco is put 011 the warehouse floors aud the buyers all know' that they are going to buy for less than the cost of product ion, aud the farmeis helpless, it is highly unfair. The auctioneer is pnicl for his ability to sell the greatest number of piles and it too often happens that the auctioneer comes along with his ■ipeed and glibuess ol tongues aud a pile of tobacco is sold about like this ‘'Yellow Dog, Yellow Dog, Yellow Dog—Whoopee—5c -Gone to R. J.” It is like the negro and white man when they went limiting and the negro killed a turkey aud a buzzard, aud when evening came to divide the spoils the white mad did the dividing. He said to the negro “I will take the turkey and you take the buzzard or you take the buzzard and I will take the tur­ key,” so the farmers have been get­ ting the buzzard long enough. Mr. Lybrook it has been going on fifty vears, and the time has come in North Carolina when the farmers must have relief. They cannot longer continue raising to bacco. Have the big tobacco in­ terests because so powerful that a poor humble farmer aud lawyer is not permitted to give them a little friendly advice, without tlie most bitter and severe criticism? Will the gigantic tobacco interests be­ come as a Pliaroah -nid say- to the poor farmers of tire Piedmont sec- “Go ye to your burden, go ye, get your straw where you can find it. yet not aught of your work shall be diminished”? Mr. Lybrook the speech I made at Mockskille ou the first Monday of court is not the first speech of the kind I have made in North Carolina. I have been crying to the farmers for the last four years to quit raising tobacco. The trouble this time my speech got into the newspapers and thus the criticism. Mr. Lybrook, I deeply appreciate your connection with the Reynolds interests. It is your duty as a citi­ zen to lie perfectly loyal to them, and you are a wonderfully good man, but don’t let ’Citsar’s meat get you too fat iu one day.” A little assistance from you right now might work wonders in saviug thousands of people from utter want and proverty. Yon are a man. of influence and can get the ears of the big slock holders and directors of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. Would jou not render a greater service by insisting that in these years of depression that they might divide the thirty six milliou dollar spoil with the home guard, rather than to criticize a poor farmer and humble lawyer from having a purebred Jersey sale? If the cattle business is such an abominable business why are you a part owner of one of the greatest purebred Red Pole cattle farms and herds in North Carolina? A liitle inconsistant, aren’t you, Mr Ly­ brook? Belter come ou to 111 y sale and bring your friends and insist that they buy some real Jerseys. I am selling some outstandiug animals and God knows you need them down iu your section. JOHN R. JONES Union county farmers will save a greatly iucreased supply of vetch this summer from Ihe hay mixtures planted iu the county last fall. The seed is being separated and re- cleaued. | There He Rose To The Occa­ sion. Several vears ago there labored in one of the Western villages of Minnesota a preacher who was al­ ways in the habit of selecting his texts from tje Old Testament and particularly some portion of the history of Noah No nutter wtiat the occasion was, he would always find some paralled incident from the history of lhisgreal character that would readily serve as a text or illtmration. At one time he was cal'ed up-n to unite the daughter of the village mayor and a prominent attorney in the holy bonds of matrimony. Two little boys, knowing his determina­ tion to give them a portion of sa­ cred history touching Noah's mar- iiage, hit upon tha novel idea ot pasting together two leaves in the family Bibleso as to counect, with out any apparent break, the mar­ riage of Noah aud the description of the Ark of the Covenant. When noted guests were all as sembled and the contracting parties with attendants iu their respective stations, the preacher began the ceremonies by reading the follow­ ing text: ' And when Noah was oue hundred aud forty years oid, he took uuto himself a wife,” then turning the page he continued, three hundred cubits iu length, fifty cubits in depth, aud within aud without besmeared with pitch.” The story seemed a little strong, but he could not doubt the Bible, and after reading it ouce moie and and reflecting a moment, he turn­ ed to the startled assemblage with these remarks: ' My beloved hreth- ren, this is the first time in the history of my life that my att'en tiiou has beeu called to this import­ ant passage of the Scridtures, but t seems to me that it is oue of the most forcible illustrations of that rand eternal truth, that the uature of woman is exceedingly difficult to comprehend.” You Is Right. The Record says that “Davie county should be allowed the pri­ vilege of voting for their board of education, Iredell county our neighbor to the west, is allo.ved to vote for the men who run their schools. Seems that the voters in Davie should have the same privi lege. Surely the voters in this county are as capable of electing good men as the voters iu other counties,” While Iredell voters are allowed to select their board of education iu the primaries it is only a Democratic primary and the Re publicans have 110 voice in the matter. Were the Republicans to carry the county the same men who were selected for the board ot education iu Iredell iu tbe Demo­ cratic primary would be named by the educational oligarchy at Ral­ eigh. The Legislature, at the in­ stance of this educational riug at Raleigh elects the boards of educa­ tion for every couuty iu the state and the Republican counties have 110 voice in the matter. A Demo­ cratic board is forced on them aud that is all there is to it. There is not a siugle Republican superm tendent of education iu North Ca­ rolina but there are 100 Democra­ tic superintendents and most of them are seasoned politicians.— Union Republican “Married men ought to. wear something to indicate plainly that they are married,” says a novelist. They generally do— the suit they bought the year before last; TheJatest report states that 36 Tobacco Prices. Openinc prices on the eastern Ca rolina tobacco markets, in some in­ stances doubling or trembling those of the preceding year, offer further evidence, particularly when grouped with other commodity prices, ofeco- nomiee improvement, the nature of which, when it affects agriculture, is particularly pleasing to Tar Heel citizenr" and officialdom. Factors contributing to the sul- stantial increase in our own bright. Oelt are similar to those which brought a stronger trend on tie Georgia and South Carolina markets, principally a short crop and an ol- vious determination on the part of the larger companies to bid up the inferior grades of tobacco to point where the menacing competition Cf cheaper cigarettes will be eliminated. An optimistic business outlook like­ wise enters into the picture; but its prevalence is more intangible and in­ direct than these other factors. Particularly does the short crop, operating under the law of supply and demand, dominate the situation. In eastern Carolina, it is estimated that the yield is only 40 to 50 per cent of normal, and the same short­ age has been apparent in the m^re southerly growing areas On the very day that the Tar Heel Markets opened, offiuial figures on Georgia sales, which closed last Saturday after a three weeks selling season, revealed that the offering represent­ ed a fourth of last wear’s total. re­ flecting a crop only 25 per cent of norman. Thus last minute stimulus was given buyers as they entered the eastern Carolina warehouses. Added to the strictly economic factors is the political situation, with a legislative session just around to coroner, in the Oid North State. To­ bacco companies, fully cognizant of the feeiintr against them, may he as interested in making political invest­ ments as in replenishing their stocks from an unusualy short crop. North Carolinians generally, however, are not so immediately interested in the circumstances of combination of cii- iumstances behind the hoisted prices as their actual prevalence and the bouyancy, the hope, which they sub­ stantially further. — Greensboro News. --------•---------- , I per cent of the workers of Canadaare snow capped uioun-,1' are uueniploytd.

At a base­ ball game played by the American League team in that city Monday 70,772 people paid their wav into the grounds, the largest crowd of the season.

Thefellowwlio tells you some­ thing that your neighbor said about you is fishing for something to car­ ry back, Prisoner Walks Off A- gain. Olin Ferguson, until lately an in­ mate of the district prison camp near Mocksville, has escaped a se­ cond time. He had made a get­ away July 16 when Clarke York, notorious Mount Airy prisoner, made a break from the same camp. His last dash for libeity occured last week Such a recurrence is a matter which might readily arouse merit­ ed criticism. The Journal and Sen­ tinel is not acquainted with the crime for which Ferguson was sent up. It is not, therefore in position to discuss it. Nevertheless, the tacts surround, ing the arrest and conviction of York are well known to the people iu this vicinity. It is known that several Winstou-Salem and Suriy county officers spent many weeks of their tune in laboriously working up the evidence ou which York was convicted of second-degree muider. Then, after a few weeks of pri­ son life, the guilty mac escaped in­ to the night and may be forever free and unpunished. It is enough to discourage the sincere officer to see the results of his labors go for naught. Unless he acquires the philosophy which sees in virture its own reward, he has little to cheer him on.—Wins­ ton-Salem Journal. Blames Auto for Crime JudgeTnm Watson, of the muni­ cipal court, know a good deal about criminals, crime and the causes of ■;rime. He has been connected with tnis court fur many vearr either as solicitor or jud^-e. This long experi­ ence has given him abundant oppor­ tunity to study various types of of­ fenders and offenses. . When Judge Watson says that “the automobile, and not the Eigh­ teenth Amendmeut1 is responsible for the majority of crimes in this country,” this assertion commands attention He made this definite de­ claration yesterday during the hear­ ing of a case in which a young white man was charged with the theft of gasoline. Judge Watson explains in general terms how the automobile causes crime. “A buy making hardly en­ ough to keep himself in food and ciothes will buy a ustd auiomobile. Maj be, some way or other he makes s ime of the payments. Then the car breaks down and he finds out re­ pairs will costs $50 to $60. He hasn’t got the money So. he goes out and steals an automobile to drive for a load of liquor which he sells for tn- ough to pay for repairs on his car. That puts the idea of bootlegging into his head as a means of making ‘easy’ money And he can’t hestitate at tnurder, if his safety is jeopardized while he’s engaged in hauling.” The logic of the steps is apparent to anyone who reads Judge Watson’s analjsis. The automobile is not to blamed for the situation It is inani­ mate. The makers of the automo­ bile are not to be blamed. They fur­ nish a necessity. But. innocent as it may i e, the automobile presents a test of character that is severe, es­ pecially to the young and those who income is not adequate to the sup­ port of a car. It sounds a sharp call to society to do more about charact­ er education.—Twit-Ci y Sentinel. Maybe Judge Tired. Davie county Superior court did not convene Until noon Monday of the past week and on Thursday at noon it adjourned for the term just holding court three days, aud short davs at that. Four murder cases on the docket were all continued. And yet we hear on all sides that we need more judges which of course uieans more expense to the broken-backed taxpayers of the state. There may have been some excuse for holding court only three days in Davie the past week but we doub; it,—Union Republican. !THE DAviE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. t .

The North Carolina legislature is responsible for the reduction in your taxes.________ Maine went democratic last week, and as soon as the i esults of the election were announced stocks tumbled $2 to §12 per share on the New York stock market and cotton dropped to $6 75 per hundred. In 1912 Maine went Republicau and all the rest of the co.untry went demo crattc, electing Woodrow Wilson president. Maybe Maine going de mbcratic this year means that all the rest of the country will go Re­ publican. No one can tell what will happen in November. 'Tf the democratic county com­ missioners in Forsyth conuty could postpone the sale of land lor taxes until the first Monday in October, will some smart democrat explain to the taxpayers of Davie, why the Davie county commissioners had to sell the land for taxes in this coun­ ty last June? Many of our- farmer friends would be glad to know if the Forsyth people have a special law giving them four months long­ er in which to pay their taxes be­ fore being sold out. Perhaps the democratic county chairman could enlighten The Record’s three thous­ and readers in Davie county along this line.

Those attending are request­ ed to bring baskets. Forest Hill Farm is an ideal place for the pic­nic and it will be well worth the time of our cattlemen to be present . and look over the fine cattle and excbauge ideas with the members from various sections of the state. Mr. Rieh is very enthusiastic over the'picnic being .held in this section and feel sure that the day will be enjoyed by all .those who attend. Big RallyAtFarmington About 3.000 democrats and Re­ publicans, from 3 months to 80 years of age, gathered at Farming­ ton Saturday night to enjoy a big barbecue supper and to hear the Cooleemee band dispense militant music. Only one speaker was heard, the gentleman from Rowan who begged the people four years ago to vote for Al Smith or to scratch his name off their tickets. They scratch­ ed his name. A big time was had by the large crowd persent. So far as we can learn many hungry citi­ zens from adjoining counties were present to help do the eating. CompleteFork Road Contract was let Thursday by the State Highway Commission for the surfacing of 6.77 miles of road from Mocksville to Fork on high­ way 90. Thfs road was graded and six inches of crushed rock laid by Geo. R Martin. The Gassoway & Owen Co., of Winston-Salem, was awarded the contract for §18,968. It is thought that work will begin on the surfacing of this road as soon as Mr. Martin completes his part of the contract. This road will be a traffic bouud macadam, what ever that is. It is thought that much additional traffic will come through Mocksville when this road is completed. Mrs. Ella Sparks Red- wine.

During the Spring, just before the schoolsclosed, the Historian of Davie Gray’s Chapter of the Daughters of the Confedracy. visited the public schools of the county, She endeev- ored to tell the children of the origin and purposes of this organixatTon. She had with her a Confederate soldier, dressed in the uniform of a Confedetate colonel. The purpose in exhibiting this old soldier was that the children might be able so carry with them through life, in memory the image of a Confederate soldier or "just how a Confederate soldier lookpd.” This soldier addressed the pupils at these schools explaining briefly the origin of negro slavery in America. He also explained the salient causes of “The War Between the States. The children were requested to write compositions on—"The Visit of a Confederate Soldier to our School.” This request was made in the hope that by writing this com- positition’ a more vivid recollection of the visit would be retained. The teachers were repuested to grade these compositions carefully and send the best one unsigned to the Historiou. To avoid the possibility of favor­ itism these compositions were to be examined and the best one determin­ ed by strangers, who knew nothing of the name of the writer or of the place where written. Two prizes were offered—one for the best composition written by the High Schools in the countv; the oth: ers for the best composition written In the Elementary schooFs. The first prize consists of a com­ plete set uf Encyclopaedia Britanica, used but usable. The second prize consists of twenty five books, used but was able, suit­ able for grade school libraries. These prizes were offered, not to the writes of the compositions; but were to be placed in the library of the school, in which the writer is a pupil Mocksville won the High school prize; Cherry Grove won the Graded school prize.

SEPTEMBER 21.1935 Famous Bull Becomes National Hero n m m A. wm& •<$$& k M S M z 'Her Hero’ Is Ameiveas Sweetheart T H E best known bull in America • —"Bull” Durnam—nas ucc^uieu. national hero. Bern in Durham, N-. C., over sixty years ago, millions have admired him this summer on 38,000 billboards throughout _ the country in an entirely now role—a picture of the perfect gentleman. He is no longer alone as formerly, but with a mate, a fair Holstein cow, who gazes at him affectionate­ly, with rolling eyes and tongue extended. And judging ,from the picture, he rather appeals to this Jersey cow, too. For those city folk who may be unacquainted with bucolic bovines, the poster bears the legend. "Her Hero", discreetly surrounded by ap­ propriate scrolls.To be the object of feminine ad­ miration is seemingly the ideal of many a male, for everywhere "Her Hero” is a universal topic of con­ versation. Advertising men in their skyscraper offices share with in­ veterate "roll your owners" a com­ mon thought—the famous bull's latest appearance. The story of the rise of "Eu'!" Durham is now histr-.ry. At the close of the Civil War, In IGfI John R. Green manufactured smoking tobacco at Durham, Tb C. As a re - 1 suit of both the Confederate and Union armies passing through the town and liberally appropriating his stock, his product became wide­ly popular. Other men had begun to prepare and sell'tobacco under names similar to the one he used. A distinctive brand was sorely needed. One day while Green was dis­cussing his problem with a friend over a dish of fried oysters, his friend pointed to a jar of English mustard on the, table and said, "This mustard, made in Durham, England, bears on its label the sign of a Durham bull’s neck. Why not name your product ‘Bull Durham Smoking Tobacco’ and use the whole bull on your label?" Green followed his friend's sug- ges:ion and a few days later the original "Eull” Durham made his debut in front of the factory, painted on a sheet of metal. As the tobacco business expanded, th e "Bull” became famous throughout the country. He has been the boon companion of the nation’s armed forces, in peace and In war, wher- c.er they went, and today, under e x is tin g conditions, th e u rg e towards thrift has made him more popular than ever. * Products Fame Is Plistorical "ss5 V 1I \ \ M ' ilrtciO r I l i d — \ IN the annals of American Indus- try, there is one product whoss name is writ large in the pages of the nation’s history. IL came into its own in a crucial p e rio d in American history, the Civil War; it played its part in the winning of the West; it was the best friend of the nation’s armed forces in the World War; and at present, in the War against Depression, it is stand­ ing millions of Americans in good stead.This product, which is known the world over by its distinctive trade­ mark, the sturdy .“Bub" Durham, was first manufactured in Durham, North Carolina, shortly before the Civil War. As the conflict wore on to a bitter end, the soldiers who passed through that section of North Carolina had plenty of op­ portunity to test the delights of this product and carry it home with them. The result was such an enor­ mously. increased demand for this tobacco that the owner of the plant, John R. Green, adopted the 41B u1-I" as a trade-mark to protect his prod­ uct against imitators. The business, under the sign of the "Bull", grew by leaps and bounds. American enterprise car­ried the little white muslin bag with its yellow string and familiar tag across the plains to the Pacific Coast and thence to far places and to strange peoples. When the doughboys in 1917 em­barked to the strains of “Over There”, the "Bull” went with them. Buck privates and ranking ofTicers alike shaccd the common pleasures of "rolling your own”. And at present, when the indus-. trial forces of the country are ' armed to fight the new foe—depres­ sion — many a thrifty smoker I swears by the “Bull’s” new slogan, J “Roll your own and save your I ‘roll’.” ! Advaniage of Rouge. i Because Ihey didn’t wear rouge, 'two pirls, 18 and 19, paid a visit to a I Ntw Yoik police court the other days Ihey were taken there by Police- wtrtiEn WiIheImira Lawtlets of the -Brrrx, who suspected the girls of \ heirg runaways. Her reason for : r oticing them and taking them to I headquarters was that “they wore j no rouge as most New York girls ; do.” j Investigation proved Policewoman I Lawless’ suspicions well grounded. : The girls had left their home in I Pennsylvania, but when officials tele- j graphed their father there he re- i plied: “Keep them. I have 12 more j at home that I can’t take care of.” I The police don’t know just what to i do with the sisters — these two j strange-looking girls without rosy ! checks. They’re trying to persuade Ithem back. I Meanwhile, one issue seems clear. It would seem that girls who go to NewYorkand want to stay there had better rouge theircheeks.—Twin City Sentinel. Short $40,000. TheSaIisburycity council has been informed that the shortage of Goorge M. Lyery, former city treasurers and tax collector, is approximately $40,000 and that demand has been made on three bonding companies for settlement. Several items total­ ing less than $2,000 are still in su­ spense but will be disposed of in a few days, according to Garland E. Martin, Jr., representing the audi­ tors of the accounts. Homes and the Depress­ ion. * For those who have contended that the American home is breaking np and will soon be a thing.of the past tnere is an excellent answer, backed by facts and figueres, in the U. S. Department of Labor statistics on juvenile delinquencies. Such delinquencies showed a de­ cline in 1931 as compared with the tnree previous years, despite the depression and its admitted pressure on the average home. Juvenile delinquencies naturally increase when environment is poor but the figures show that the Ameri­ can home has managed to hang to­ gether fairly well, in spite of de­ creased incomes and the resultant mental strain in millions of families. And if the American home can make such a record in times like these, it is going pretty far to say that the home will soon be a thing tf the past.—Twin City Sentinel. Americans, says a news item, spent four billion for amusement in 1931. Perhaps it would have been better if it had read “in search (f amusement.” — Greetuille Pied­ mont. NOTICE! Old papers for sale.

Interest continues at high, pitch In this community over the coming of IROGENr the prescription of a famous New York hospital physi­ cian, recently introduced with tre­ mendous success in this state.Although newly introduced here, IROGEN has been thoroughly tried and tested in vast numbers of cases and thousands of users iu un­solicited letters have testified to its remarkable power in building solid flesh, increasing vitality and over­coming general physical weak­nesses. After suffering 10 years with stomach disorders, poor, appetite, loss of weight, burning and swell­ing in the stomach, D. M. Mooney, of 1414 N. Church St., Salisbury, N. C., declared, after talcing one bot­tle of IROGEN that he felt 100 per cent better. “I have been relieved of indigestion, have gained 3 pounds, and recommend it to any­one. It is a marvelous medicine,” which letter is typical of thousands being received from people in all walks of life who have tried this famous prescription.It is claimed that IROGEN sup­plies essential elements for the re­ generation, of the blood and vital, powers, and is the greatest discov- s ery ever known for the treatment: of stomach disorders, loss of flesh, chronic constipation, dyspepsia, in -' digestion and impure blood. It is pointed out by scientists that every nerve, muscle and vital organ • of the human body draws its iiour - 4 ishment and, therefore, its strength, from the blood, so that one’s blood is the unfailing barometer of the strength and health of the body.They advise the public not to take chances, but if the nerves and muscles are not as strong as they should be, if one feels weak, lan­guid, blue and discouraged, no time should bo lost in supplying the blood with the strengthening ele­ment found in IROGEN. If this is done, -they declare the nerves will gradually become steady and the physical strength and power of en-[ durance and the natural flesh will'; return, until one looks and feels physically fit.IROGEN may be obtained in either liquid or concentrated tablet form at leading druggists and deal­ ers in medicines everywhere, in­cluding LeGrand^s Pharmacy, Mocksville, N. €.

The News and Observer says that the first thing that Woodrow Wilson did aftsr being inaugurated Presi­ dent was to call a special session of Congress to lower the tariff and the Raleigh paper might have also added that we were labelled for the biggest panic the country ever saw after the Democrats lowered the tariff had not the World War broken out and this country turned its attention to making sfuff for the armies of Europe and furnishing them with ammunition and other fighting equipment. No we want no more low tariff in this country. Thereare enongh workmen out of a job as it is and to lower the tariff bars and admit free of duty the merchandise from Europe and Asia manufactured by low priced laborers over there would cause our plants to close down and we would have a revolution sure e- nough.—Union Republican. Will Have To Find Money. City and county government, much complicated generally 011 ac­ count of a mountain of debt, much of it the resutt of mismanagement and inefficiency, will be much sim­ plified if counties and towns can transfer additional costs to the State and towns can transfer something to the county. The executive committee of the North Carolina municipal associa­ tion has formulated a legislative program that will help in the trans­ fer if it is enacted. The program provides for maintenance of all streets in towns of less than 2,500 population; that “a part of the State gasoline tax”—amount to be figur­ ed—be distriouted among towns having more than 2,500 population —all otherstowns—for street main­ tenance; gas municipal purposes should be untaxed; county com­ missioners to assume full responsi­ bility for charity and relief work. There is some more, but these are the important items suggested for municipal relief. Taking the last first, siuce muni­ cipalities of size pay a large part of the counly tax the county should make no discrimination in the dis­ tribution. Residents are not de­ prived of couuty aid simply because they live iuside towu limits. But siuce most of the destitute usually congregate iu towns, for reasons that are understood it seems rea sonable that the neighbors should supplement official aid, eveu as re­ sidents of any neighborhood, ur­ ban or rural, are expected to aid neighbors who are iu ueed. 'There is also a question of law about the tax on gas used for government purposes. But if the Stase is to be made to take care of all streets iu towns of less than 2,500, and con­ tribute substantially to all other municipalities foi similar purposes, one wonders where the money is to come from for this iu addition to maintaining all highways, public semi public. The tax 011 gas has now about reached the limit. An additional levy would probably mean decreased revenue.—States­ ville Daily. Better “Feeling” A change in the attitute of busi uess men and the geueral public will mean much toward complete recovery from the economic shock suffered when the crash came three years ago. A better feeling and a distinctly optimistic attitude exists and somehow there is au entirely different atmosphere iu the business world. Prices appear to be on the up­ ward swing. This has ,helped to make merchauts and business meu feel better. When prices start up­ ward, it means that there is a scar­ city of the commodity which is ad­ vancing. This is the case and at the present time. Merchandise now being sold conuot be replaced at the old price and when present stock are exhaused, customers of retail stores will pay a higher price. And history shows that limes im- piove when prices go up. There is a real basis for the im­ proved outlook. The worst is cer- lainly over and the people are find­ ing it out. It should not be long until, the majority of those who want to work are gainfully/employ­ ed. When that happens, prosperty will be with us again. Thelaborer must have work and receive a de­ cent wage beiore he can spend.— Wilkes Journal. AL newspaper man’s experience is much like the preacher’s.

Editor Davie Record: — A solemn obligation is resting upon the sober- thinking citizens of Norlli Carolina, which they must face in the coming November election. The same is true, of courcc, in the entiie nation; but the peculiar situation in which we find ourselves, makes it the more necessary that we look to the individual states and congressional districts, for help i'll this time of need. Reference is here made to the proposed change iu our laws against the liquor traffic. It so happens that, natior.al’.y speaking, both tire Republican and Democratic parties are 011 record ad­ vocating the manufacture and sale of liquor by some kind of legal method; and while there is a slight difference in their respective methods, as proposed in their plat­ forms, they, nevertheless, both mean letting down the bars in some kind of legal fashion, to those clamoring for liquor. We may also add, that while there seems to be some slight dif­ ference in the DersouaI proposal of the two respective presidential can­ didates'the difference is so slight as to remind ouejof the proverbial com­ parison of “tweedle dee and twee- dle dum”. So the eleciorate can have no choice in the presidential race, as between wet and dry; for it is wet if you do and wet if you don’t. But-.since the question is one which the presideut ciuuot handle, we should watch our step, and place our votes, both in the congression­ al districts and for United States Senator, where they will count, if vve expect to protect ourselves a- gaiust the mighty liquor forces,, who are waging the greatest battles of their lives. It is, therefore, the duty of every voter who is at heart opposed to the legalized liquor traffic, to dis­ regard party politics in their vote fur both senator and congressmen, and in every case stand by the man who pledges himself to use all the iufiuence at his command to fore­ stall the repeal of our laws against liquor. The northern liquor ad.vocates sent money by tile thousands into our stale to advance the interest of a man who was out spoken iu his promises to do all in his pow”r to legalize the sale of liquor if he was elected to the United Slates Senate. These influences succeeded in mak­ ing him the nominee of the Demo­ cratic party; and, of couse, now, sinca they have won the first round, the thousands they seut to nomi­ nate him was ouly uocket change to what will be' sent to put over uis eleetiou. Of course, great pleasure is be­ ing brought to bear upon the dry demacrats. iu the name of party re­ gularity, to capture their votes for this out-spoken liquor advance. But will not party regularity be rather expensive if that man wins, and by his efforts in the United States Senate saddled upon this country again the awful curse of the legalized sale of liquor? This he promises to do if in his power, and when he is given a teat in the Senate of the United States, he is given great power. I know sometimes, in order to appear regular, people vote one way and pray another; but let me ab monish the dry meu and women of North Carolina this is one time they better vote as they pray, and send a man to the United Slates Senate who is too per cent, dry per­ sonally, and who pledges himself to fight with all his might to defeat any measure looking to the repeal of our laws against the sale of li­ quor. Don’t listen to the false propa- I ganda that the boot-legger is selling as much liquor now as was once sold legally, and that the conditions are no better. There never was a greater falsehood perpctraded upon intelligent people. I speak as one who knows, I have traveled every nook and corner of North Carolina, and quite a little in several other states for thirty one years. I have seen the legalized handling of li­ quor in the various in the years be­ fore the enactment of the Eigh­ teenth ‘ Amendment; I have also S=Cii the country at first hand under otir present laws; and I say without the fear of coutradicuou from any reliable souico, that there is no comparison between what we had then and what we have now. The man who says conditions now are eveu half as bad as tinder the legalized sale of liquor, is either misinformed or would be entitled to the blue ribbon 111 a contest for the biggest prevaricator in the country. Tlie Hon. Josephus Daniels is eternally right when he says that our only hope in the nation is to elect dry congressmen and dry sen­ ators, and may God help us to do it, for woe be unto us if we take a backward step with this liquor busi­ ness, the greatest single evil in all the world. • J.

Winston-Salem, N C., Septem­ ber 15, 1932 —Thefirst full week in October, as has been the custom for years, will be known as the Wins tou-Salem and Forsyth Couuty Fair Week, and President Reynolds de­ clares that purses for the horse races and prizes for agricultural and commercial exhibits this year are larger heie than at most state fairs iu the nation, and larger than at any other counly fair in the en tire Southeast. Dr T. N. Spencer, Secretary- Manager,' lias completed all ar­ rangements for conditioning the large number of buildings at the fair ground here, and the race track is iu the best of condition. He states that the number of free days haf been increased to three this year: Tuesday all ladies will be admitted through the turnstiles without cost; Friday all school children i'rom the white schools will find a welcome and will be admit­ ted without tickets; Saturday all colored children of school age will pass free. • This year preliminary enteries are far above the average, and while some had anticipated a de­ creasing interest because of general financial conditions, the manage- maut now realizes that competition will be keener than ever for the larger cash prizes and certificates of merit, which mean much to pro ducers. The best iu the show world has been obtained, L. I). Long, Treas- uier, declases, and he bases this conclusion ou the high prices which the management is paying for its attractious. Thaviu’s pageantry, never before brought south on ac­ count of the prohibitive cost, will startle the fair visitors every after­ noon and night iu front of the grandstand. Seventy-seven experts iu the dramatization of colorful scenes, takeu from the Bible and from pagan histories, will appear in astounding array of enequaled costumes; changing daily.

(From Greensboro News) KThewriterisvery much interest­ ed in the soap sale the Democrats are going to put on for the benefit of the campaign fund and would like to make a few suggestions regarding the proposition. I understand this soap is to be uf- ed to clean up America and I would suggest that the soap be made up from such concentrates as Ive. Iysol and a couple of strong deodorants. Ordinary soap formulas would be in ufiicient for the purpose the Dem­ ocrats have in mind. I would also suggest that the proposed amout, twentj-million cakes, be multiplied by at least one thousand. It will take fifty million cakes to clean up North Carolina, and, according to the Democrats, North Carolina is a model of purity compared with some other states. It would also be my suggestion that a new organization be built up to disposed of the soap and use the proceeds. The old gang is hardly fit to undertake such a great cleansing proposition. Most folks seem to think tho en­ tire country neods a thorough clean­ ing. It is indeed refreshing to know that the Democrats realize this nec- esity and it is a pity the Republi­ cans can’t have credit for starting this movement. For years North Carolina Republicans have been beg­ ging the people of the state to help clean up but, for some reason unex­ plained, they have refused. In the mesn time, the state has gone on piling up more dirt until ac last the Democrats themselves realize that it must make a change of some sort or it will be much longer. But let’s get back to the soap proposition and name a few of the spots that neeu cleaning. I suppose it is understood that this soap is to be used in cleaning things political. Well, we will begin will begin with the city of Raleigh. It will take three million cakes to wipe out the s ain led by the defalcation of a city official with a large sum of the taxpayers’ hard earned money Tne city of Salisbury needs about twelve hundred thousand cakes to wipe out a similar strain. Graens- boro had a prominent politician to smear things with his checking out wilh court funds to the tune of the Rebel Yell. Only '.he Almighty him­ self can tell how much of the hund reds of millions spent by our state during the past fifteen years has gane to create stains. Nor must we forget the cases where prominent politicians duped thousands of widows and children into depositing their money in banks and building and loan organizations and then gamble the money away How much soap will be needed to clean up these messes nobody knows. It is pecular that none of the large banks and building and loan organi­ zations that have gone “bursted” have been controlled by Republican politicians. The former lieutenant- governor who was found guilty was a Democrat, A former Democrat stale chairman was involved in the wrecking of another. City official are mostly Democrats (thank God for the action of the High Point council, they may save some good Republican’s reputation by firing him) and yet we find complants of ali kinds arising in most of the cities 6f the state. We should have quite a bit of soap for wiping out the primary law in this state and for cleaning up the charges of Democrats against one onother. A lot more will be rtquir ed to wipe out the four hundred thousand dollr charge the Democrats made for selecting this year’s candi­ dates. I don’t believe we will need much to wash the absentee voter’s law off the books. It seems to be pretty well washed up. Methinks it has but one more breath left. Just how devasting that will be remains’ to be seen. If the Democrats are in earnest about this cleaning up pro­ cess there won’t be many illigal ab­ sentee votes cast this fall but we’ll all be watching to see whether or not they mean business. In national affairs the Democrats ■should start cleaning at the head of rhe stairs and sweep downwards. First. lets sweeps up the facts that Mr. KooseveltDroposes to clean up Wall street after he is elected Presi- ient even though he forgot to make 1 beginning while he was Governor. That will take millions of cakes of map. It does no good to tell another nan to clear up when there is dirt at iome.- xSuppose also that we wash iut some of the malignant hatred between such man as Mr. McAdoo tnd Mr Smith. Personal jealousies lave no place in the hearts of men vho are big enough to run the good ild USA. Thatisone clean part if-the Republican party that is over- ooked frequently. They have their iifferences but when it comes to the .joori of the country most of them forget their petty differences and unite for the common good. Yes, the country needs clearing up and North Carolina Republicans will be first to help if the Democrats are ,iiicere It is necessary, however, to ' First cast the mote of thine own . eye” if one is to see to cast the beam out of the other fellow’s eye. Wipe out some of the half billion dollars debt piled on the shoulds of North Carolinians. Dig to the bottom and iind out how many more were realjy involved in some of the propositions mentioned above and thoroughly clean up at home then we’ll all unite to go away from home. Come on with the soap. G. RAY PEELER, Faith. 1 2 ,0 0 0 Office Holders On State’s Pay Rool. I have just received a letter from Hon. Frank Dunlap, Director of Per­ sonnel of the State of North Carolina stating that there are about 12,000 on the public pa1-roil in North Caro­ lina and no list 01 them is available. There are nearly 1,000 payrollers in Raleigh alone The chief work of most of these political parasites is to draw pay without profit to the state or production of wealth for the state. They are political wealth destroy­ ers—consumers of the capital stock and of the wealth of the fundamental pioneer producers and citizans of the state. How can any government or any unit of government stand wneh it is in charge of non-producing political spenders and wasters=. How can any father sui vive, if he has a house full of sorry, non-pro­ ducing sons and daughters to con­ sume or destroy the estate that he has assembled after a life time of toil and thrift.- Thestate of North Carolina is con­ suming its capital stock at a rBpid rate. Neither the state, the country the muncipality nor any other unit of government should ever be allowed or again empowered to issue bonds nor to borrow money No honest office holder will object to making the affairs of goverument an open public book. Ifhe believes iu secret, hidden governmeat, he is dishonest and will steal. H. D. STEWART, M. D.. Monroe, N. C. Supply And Demand. ‘ 'The old man. ‘Supply and Demand is” says the Marshvill Home, still mightier than organization, farmers relief bills, strikes and walkouts. Last year old Mother Earth strutted her stuff and a bountiful supply of everything was produced. Prices saiied downward and lit in the valley of depression. This year Nature has decreed that a shortage in many crops is to prevail and consequently prices are lifting their heads' Great is supply and demand!” Poisoning The Well. It is a telling epmmentary on po­ litical chicanery, that at a time when unemployment and depressed busi­ ness are drying up the government’s saurces of support, public officials are preparing and delivering attacks on basic industries. A paraded il­lustration would be for a person to poison the well, upon which he de­pends for water. M DAViE RECORD, MftCKSViLLE, R C. September as. >932 THE DAVIE RECORD. Cl FRANK STROUD Editor.

If they have reduced taxes one penny since they .took office we have found it out. , Roosevelt has promised the farm ers in the west about everything under the sun with a gold fence a- round the whole outfit. Ask the dairymen of New York State what Mt.'Roosevelt has done for them since he has been Governor of that state? j. Uncle Jack Garner is still in the race’ for vice-President and also for a seat in Congress despile the fact that many democrats are carrying signs around on the rear end of their cars which read “Roosevelt and Recovery.’’ Maybe Jack’s . -nasse-hasbeen changed to Recovery. The little democrat who says there is more liquor made, sold and consumed in Davie today than ever before is brining a fearful indictment against our democratic sheriff and all his deputies. Thirty years ago there were nearly too Government distilleries in Davie county and more whisky was made in one day than is made in Davie now in one year. : '• Captain Farmer head of the State Highway Patrol, is now yelling for 200 State highway patrolmen in­ stead of 51, the number now sup posed to be riding or patroling the highways. Farmer says if the next legislature will increase the number of patrollers to 200 they will arrest enough taxpayers to more than pay their expenses. With the state al­ ready on the verge of bankruptcy, we don’t see how under the sun the additional 149 men can be paid. Of Course that would mean 200 demo cratic voters instead of only 51, but What a price. May the Lord have mercy on any set of legislators who go to Raleigh next January and pass such a bill. The Record will never support any than for the legis­ lature who is in favor of such a measure. The 51 already employ­ ed should be turned into game war­ dens or prison camp guards. The democrats who are accusing President Hoover of being wet, should read and poader over what Ffanklin Roosevelt. democratic nominee for president, said in his acceptance speech at Chicago. Listen to what Roosevelt said: “This convention wants repeal. Yourcandidate wants repeal. And I am confident that the United States of America wants repeal. I sayto you now that from this date on the 18th amendment is doomed.’’ Compare these words with what President Hoover said in his ac­ ceptance speech and you will be forced to the conclusion that Mr, Roosevelt is as wet as he could pos­ sibly be and that Mr. Hoover is a- hog’t as dry as he could possibly be without being shut up in a dry kiiiri For these reasons thousands of prohibitionists throughout the country are going to vote forjtfr. Hoover, regardless of political af­ filiations. ^_________ A certain tribe in Africa makes a speech stand on one foot. When h» has to bring his other foot to the ground, the speech m ust end.

Editor Davie Record:—For the past several weeks I have read a number of editorials in your paper calling on Mr. LeGrand and Mr. Brock, demo_ratic and republican nominees for the legislature from Davle county, to let the taxpayers know how they stand on certain questions, which is of much inter­ est to the voters and taxpayers, not only in Davie but throughout the entire state. From what I can learn, the people in this section of the county are going to find out how these gentlemen stand on the absentee ballot law repeal, the a- bolishing of the highway patrol, and the election of the county board of education by the people, before they cast their ballot on Nov. 8th. Good men in both parties are op­ posing the great cost of maintain ing the state highway patrol, which is costing the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and is a needless expense. I have traveled more than 3,000 miles of highways in North Carolina since early spring and-have met but two highway patrolmen outside the cities. If these gentlemen persist in refusing to answer these important questions then I and a number of my neigh­ bors are going to refuse to cast our ballot for either. A word to the wise should be sufficient. A TAXPAYER. Republicans Open Headquarters. The Republican party of Davie county are opening headquarters in the Anderson building on the east side of the public square in this city from which the party’s activities in the approaching campaign will be directed. The location will serve as headquarters for the Republican Executive cqnimittee and also for the/'various county candidates. Some person will have charge of the building which will be open most of the time. AU voters in Davie are given a cordial invitation to visit the headquarters when in town. The rooms will be open and the latch string hanging on the out­ side. Too Great A Temptation A negro who was brought into Iudge Scrugg’s court at Houston, Texas, charged with stealing sever­ al unguarded watermelons at a gaso line filling station, was released with the judicial dictum: “Leaving wa­ termelons unguarded is too much temptation for a darkey.” RepliesTo John R. Jones Editor Davie Record:—In your paper of September 21st you pub­ lished an article titled “John R. Jones' Hot Reply to D. J. Ly* brook!" It might be well tor you to publish my reply to John R. Jones published iu the Winston- Salem Journal some days ago. (I am enclosing a copy.) In my first article I did not criticize the Hon. John R for criticising the tobacco companies, but this I could have easily done, since his attack ou them was unfair and uncalled for; but I did criticize his advising the farmers to go iuto the dairy business in a big way, when, at thesame time he was adverting a dispersal sale of his cattle. The Hon. John R. is a good So licitor and I presume hts legal ad­ vice, where needed, might be worth what he would charge for it. He doesn't seem to charge for his agri­ cultural advice and I am thorough ly satisfied that it is not worth any more than he charges. If the Hon. John R. had any reason for making his “now famous speech" other than to sell his cows it must have been to hear his head roar. Yours truly, D. J LYBROOK, P S. In connection with Hon. Iohti R’s speech at Mocksville some one called him a nincompoop but I won’t do that because I don't know what it means and I don’t think the Hon. John R. would. D J. L. To the Editor of the Journal:—In Solici­ tor Jones reply to my criticism of his MocksvilIe speech, he applied an old law yefs trick. Finding no merits to his side of the controversy, he just floundered a- round and tried to muddy the waters. Ac­ cording to the published report, the Hon. John R. advised the farmers to go into the dairy business in a big way, and this Iobjectedtoon the grounds that dairy­ men are not now getting cost of produc­ tion for their milk and this because there are so many big, as well as little dairy­men in the business. We are producing more dairy products than there is a de­ mand for at fair prices. Getmore farmers into the dairy business and it will add to the distress of those who are already in the business and they too would most likely lose the muney invested in the purchase of cattle, dairy aquipment, etc. Mr. Jones advice to farmers to live at at home is sound, 'and most Pjedmont North Caroline farmers do. He did nut step on my toes when he “insisted that the farmers should no longer raise tobacco at less than cost of production,” but when he advised farmers to go into the dairy business in a big way and was at the same time advertising a dispersal sale of his dairy herd, it looked quite insistent. There is no question about the farmers of North Carolina needing relief, but getting them into the overcrowded dairy business where they would have to sell their milk and cream at less than the cost of pro­ duction, would give them no relief; should they take his dairy advice, it would get them further in debt than they are now. Every farmer should keep at least one or two cows, but every farmer should not go into the Dairy business.Yours very truly, D J. LYBROOK. Home Cming At Bear Creek Church.

September a$. ^ Sack of Tohacco Sold For $16,400 pOSSIBLY the highest price ever received for a sack of tobacco was obtained on a South Sea island in 1903, according to "Tobacco”. It was paid to a tourist by a half- caste pearl diver. The tourist, who had missed his boat, whiled away his time watch­ ing the pearl divers of the island. One of the half-castes, who saw him roll himself a cigarette from his sack of ‘‘Bull” Durham, offered to buy the tobacco. As it was the last one available on the island, the tourist was reluctant to part with it for any price; so the pearl diver finally offered him the pearls in the next five shells which he was about to open.‘ The traveler agreed. The first four shells produced nothing more than -some practically worthless seed pearls, but the fifth disclosed a pearl of size, coloring and texture seldom equaled. Declining all local offers, the traveler bought himself a pistol and departed on the next steamer. He later sold the pearl, which he had traded for a five cent sack of "Bull" Durham to­ bacco, for §16,400. From humble beginnings in Dur­ ham, North Carolina, soon after the Civil. War, "EuH" Durham has achieved world-wide popularity and renown. Not every smoker can ex­ pect to trade his five cent sack of tobacco for a pearl of great price, but in these days millions are eager to save their "rolls" by rolling their <urcuee s Hf' S l- V ~~ - t i i ....-C? ..

Perhaps it is just another version of the "eternal triangle.”The center of attraction, "Bull” Durham, who recently appeared with an admiring Holstein as a poster-mate, is one of- America’s oldest and best known trade-marks Born in 1865, very shortly after the close of the Civil War in Dur­ham, North Carolina, v/here the product he represents was first and still is made,-the "Bull” was used in one of the pioneer outdoor ad- Vartoon courtesy of "Life” vertismg campaigns. Four groups of painters were sent out from Dur­ ham to paint the "Bull’1 on every available space they could find. They travelled the four points of the compass and thus the llBuU" penetrated to Texas, the Pacific Coast, the Western Plains and to Nev/ England. Since his debut on sign boards, the "Bull” has been seen many a time on the printed page, a medium the possibilities of which were unknown in those early days. "Bull” Durham has since become world famous. In South America, in Africa, in the Orient and in the South Seas, he is known and wel­ comed. During the World War, he - was the doughboy’s buddy, and now, when economy is in favor, vjic is more popular than ever. hoover -HOOVEFt Pfflw m m iimnttmnnTi Suppose This Were The Heading Of A Newspaper Article Cf An Accident Caused by YOUR Car!, ^WHOEVER drives a ear without carrying enough of Liabilitiy Insur- Ihnce takkes a long chance.

Tne powers that be had best hold in the horns of the state highway patrol right now before the horns get too long. The highway commission is to build andkeep up roads. We don’t care to look forward to the day when it will lake over the general politi­ cal functions of the state. The highway patrol was created to keep the traffic of the roads going as it should and to do what it could to prevent the lawless use of the roads. Thatis job enough. We do not care to look forward to the time when this patrol increasing numbers will assume the general police pow­ ers of the state. The patrol was sent to High Point and Rockingham as guards during strikes. It has no business in such work. If the state is going to under­ take a police duty, between that of the local officers and the militia, then let it do so on its own. We don’t need road mean doing this kind of work. If they are not needed to ride the roads abolish them. They were not created to hang around the police headquarters and offices of sheriffs and dabble in everything that comes alone. Nor are the need­ ed to interfere in strikes. Dehorn the highway patrol before its horns become too long and hard TICKET.
