Click, Hickory, long time newspaper man, has ppt out the'w ord that the President elected in 1940 will die in office. H e bases his prophecy on the record, which shows that beginning with William H enry Harrison in 1,840 Presidents elected eachj2o yearsThereafter have died in effice. - O a the face of . the figures the theory'is sufficiently ac curate to disturb, -Harrison-, elect ed in 1840, died in office. -Lincoln, elected'in 1860J' 20 years and G ar field, elected in 1880.' died in office. A nother 20 years and McKinley,' elected in' 1900 died J n office Tw enty years later' H arding was elected and died in office. Mr C lickfigures that five straighs will make the rule. The first and last died of ,natural causes. Three died at the hands of assassins. On the theory that one natural death has intervened Mr. Click would prob ably expect the assassin to come for the man elected in 1940. ; W hile the Presidents elected each 20 years after Lincoln’s first election die in office the dying did n 't 'always follow immediately-the 20 year pe riodd. Lincoln, elected 20 years after Harrison, lived Until he had been inaugurated for a-second term in 1865, his death-being: about 25 years after that OLHarrison." G ar field, elected 20 years after Lincoln’s first election, died the first ydar of his administration. McKinley was. first elected in . 1896, i6_ years lived to be elected; a/secotrS'‘ninle,‘ dying in 1901.- -H arding -was elect ed 20 years after M cKinley’s iast election and died in A ugust, 1923, having served about two and a half years of his term. One who desiies to candidate for President in 1940 can take heart. T he hoodoo m av.depait by then. It will be noticed that Mr.' Click - be gins his record of fatalities in 1840. It was not operating prior to that time and there is no. reason why it should continue. Moreover if the man elected in 1940 is spared for 20 years after H arding’s death; he ,would serve'at least two and a half years and that is w orth-taking the chance. -Also, if he has Lincoln’s fortune, he may be reelected be fore death strikes. • The-Click figures are something to excite surmise. They mean noth ing of course ih- so far as the cer tainty that a'President elected each 20' yea/s m ust die in' office.—Stales viUe Dailv. ■ Can Be Done for Less; : - *rr:- K*;? :'.v-LK LA R fiEST^IN ; TH i^ ^ 6 6 N ^ f LIE.

The Republican platform is_very explicit ou that point and the tax . payers of the.

Miss Berry says in substance, we can’t do with any less money than, we, have been spending.' T h a t: is, exactly what the people wanted some representative politician of the; present spending brigade to say.. T hat is.-the people want to Jtnow'1 whether the present crowd can or" cannot run the State government; with its various branches, including road building and road repair, for less than $25,000,000 for ' reads;- M iss Berry say, “ All rig h t,': thenj: we can fihd some bthess who .can and we jvill do it, so you boys- riiayj just Es,weU begin;to..check up Sinffi J D y e r C iittin g Roll. ; The public may be pardoned, for bejhg a little bewildered by the contradiction bet weeu the Presi dent’s- call increased employment Jrail higher wages -and. the policy of c.iirt'ailment announced by the post Office Department.

The man has no great .ability: but he 13 a good worker. He is not lazy, and with some direction would= make a good tenant on the farm. He is here.with us and must not starve.

Of: course we will never go back t a - the: feudal system, but some way will be worked out to supply- the directing- care that- the men of one talent must; have if they are to dive. It is too soon-to be-raising the poiht, but: sterilization may be found to be the. most im portant ■ social remedy^.for some of the unbearable, conditions that now exist. One of these, dav.s . George Ross Pou, son of the Cir^ gressman" from the fourth district who served for 33 years, dying in office and before that tim e' was for 10:;.years solicitor.of .his district, making an office-holding tenure, of 43 years all told, is tradding along in the path laid opt by his father. , For several years George Ross Pou was a clerk to his father’s office in Washington and with the advent of the Morrison administration became head of the sta e prison and consum ed in that job under three Governors until legislated out of office by'the 1933 Legislative and then Governor EJhfinghaus. immediately -provided tne same job/but under a different name, for Pou and appointed him to. it. ' Editor J. W. Roxboro Courier was a member of the manner in which the Legislature was defied by Eh- ringhaus in making a job for Pou as follows: “George Ross Poo, executive di rector,o fth e North Carolina high way and; public works coifftnission, has resigned, and almost instantly announced his candidacy for Cor- fron) the fourth district, the: seat so long held by bis esteemed father, Edward W. Pou.- GovernorJBhringhaus announced immediately after receiving the res ignation that he would lose- no time in naming his successor. J You will probably remqmber the bitter fight in the Legislature over consolidating the penitentiry and the highways. We remember distinctly th a t' the fight waged hot f6r several days ih the' 8ehateMftQ8e iwhhwerew-y^vTta should be abolishetfeand'hfl n e w ^ created,- while the poiicians—whu saw in Mr. Pou one of the ablest' of the bunch—fought to retain the set up as it was finally the offices were consolidated and it Was’the expecta tion that either Mr. P6u or Mr. Jeff/ ress would go. But what happened? After a long wait the Governor nam- ed Mr. Jeffress asNthe head o f' the highway and penal institution, with Mr. Pou as the- executive director, both receiving,, if -we mistake- not, their same old salaries. v~ “ Thus was the Legislature over ridden and all-semblance of saving a thing of the past. No, Governor you need not be in s hurry to mak e the appointment, Fn fact, if none was made you would simply be carry cut the intention of the last Legisla ture.” . V- ''=iVj- : .The Concord Tribune in Speaking of the Pou job and the salary receiv ed say sv . , . I . J Raleigh reports indicate that when George Ross P o u T successor in the E|,ighway. and. Prison department: is chosen he will be asked to served for less than the $6,000 per. year which Mr. Pou has been receiving. • If sub sequent developments^ show this ;rumor is based on facts, then the public will have substantiation b fits suspicion that the job was created more for Mr. Pou’s benefit than for any other reason. If it is really a $6,000.job;-why was tffr, Pou paid that, sum?” ■ VvAnd the Winston-Salem Journal adding its Voice to the;din says: J “ Resignation of-George.

We read something like this several months ago and wrote Mrs. O’Berry in re gard to politicians holding jobs. Up to this good boar we have had no answer to the letter we wrote her. Fred 0 . Sink, editor of The Lex ington Dispatch, announces in bis paper that he is a candidate for the legislature from'Davidson coun- ty on the democratic ticket. We read Fred’s platform, and he is. sound on the sales tax, or rath r, is opposed to the said tax. When iUcomes to where-he stands on the prohibition question he is as silent as the grave. If we remember right Fred was a hot Reynolds man. and we take it from his stand in the last election that be is at least moist. , The revenue from the sales tax and the beer tax seems to be shrink ing. Let’s see—we were to get a million and a half dollars annually ' from the beer license, and about ten million annually from the sales tax. Well, if we haven’t read the figures wrong the beer tax will not go to a million for the first year, and the sales tax will bring m a- bout half what some of its ardent supporters predicted. Neither of these taxes are popular with the people of North Carolina. AU candidates who want to run for any office from township con stable to sheriff, must file their names with T. P.

It seems that our dem ocratic'friends will have several candidates in the field for the various county offices. The time for filing [expires May 51b, about three weeks hence There is plenty of time for anything to happen. So far as we can learn, there is no opposition to the three Republican county -commissioners, and they will no doubt be in the race again. _____ Democrats On Guard.

SYNOPSIS Mary, daughter of a self made millionaire, obsessed with the Idea that her personality is obscured by the tact that she is the child of the “rich David Brown,” determines to make her way in life unaided. She has a million dollars, which she Insists her father Invest in the “wildest dream" imaginable. • , C H A PT E R I—Continued —2— “D ad!” There were tears In her voice. “Yon started, poor! You had your chance! I want mine! Has any thing In life meant more to you than working up to success?” “No.” Davii* Brown’s voice was husky with memories. . Working up. The glorious fight of achievement; of amassing for his wife, from an in herited few thousands, the fortune her share of which his youngest daughter now irisouciantly was ‘tossing to him, a gold ball and chain; these things had been his life. “If it’s the thing ,yon really -want, Mary, I won’t bother you even with my opinion of It. I won’t let your for tune bother you- I’ll try to put it w here it will .jo some good. Only, daughter, since you insist on going out to learn the sting of poverty, there must be no extremes—no spectacular heroics, You must remember that I'm still your father. I refer to emer gencies of sickness, accidents—any thing In which your own funds might not be adequate.” “Don’t be a sil, darling!” as she rumpled the-heavy shock of hair. “I’m not disinheriting you, or leaving rea son behind.” “Behind? You’re going to let your first job take you—Quite away from home,' then?” “You hadn’t thought of that?”. He smiled ruefully. “I suppose, I had jumped to the. natural conclusion that you’d just take some job close at hand until some nice chap came along—and then you’d settle down right near me, like the other girls, and live happily ever after—’’ : “D ad! A prince for; me?” Mary’s lips twisted. “Hasn’t it ever occurred to you that Tm absolutely shut off ' from romance? That- any little shijp- girl has more beaux than I? The ones I might have had have been fortune hunters—and the ones I might have wanted have run because I’m the rich David Brown’svdaughter. They mustn’t fall in love with a rich girl—at least until, their pocketbooks are as fat as hers. That’s another thing money can’t buy—romance. Maybe that’ll come, too, when I’m penniless." And she finished the subject with a ges ture. “I want to go w est; before it’s all leveled and terraced and landscape- gardened. I w ant to have' a share In the development projects of. our own country.” ' He sigbiO. “I don’t blame you. Well, there %as a young fellow from thei west In our bank the other day. He had a mighty interesting proposi tion. We may loan. him money. He’s coming back 1 In a month or so with more Information. I could get you—” . “Oh, no! You. m ustn’t get me a thing! Don’t you see? Thatw ouldbei pull from the sta rt I want to land my own job—as my classmates a re . having to do.” “So be i t Well, I’ll, l.et you know what I do with your money—” “Horrors, no! Hold up your right band;. Now sw ear you won’t so much as remind me I ever had it. I- want to forget It I want to be what I’m going to . seem to be. Penniless.” He humored her. “I swear.” “And now I must run. I promised Bve I’d help , her entertain the nurses from- the American hospital.” ' Presehtly David Brown stepped out upon the veranda to watch the always thrilling spectacle of Mary’s depar ture. Mary drove her own car, a. long low roadster, LUe a boy, she drove. She had a boy’s virility. She’d forge out her success like a boy. She’d sur mount Jier obstacles. But—a collie came to thrust its slender nose into Brown’s hand. “But won’t die be sur prised when she discovers what her obstacles are,* old man? Tlie precious Infant thinks she can go out and du plicate heir dad’s fight Welli nobody spoiled her dad’s adventure by .telling him w hat lay around the next corner.

Looking- quizzically Into the drawing room Where chairs were occupied by trunk trays and boxes, David Srow n asked a white-capped maid, “Moving day; Anna?" “Miss Mary has c job, sir. She’s determined to take only^ one trunk, and there were things we. had to sort out of her other twelve.** ' ' Brown *ent oh up the stairs.

But who is the pro moter, or the development company? What rating?” y “Goodness,'I don’t know. I’ll have to take a chance. This Is the only job open In the world.” “W hat do you know about the project?” Mary laughed. _ “You’d be surprised. I received a cheap-looking little maga zine in the mails one day a while ago, and opened it to find myself invited to invest in a home for my old age In the most ideal home site in' the World— Paradise Valley. Invited to come and pioneer de luxe. . For scenery, the magazine assured me, the place has the Alps backed right off the map. It aims to attract the moneyed, dad, since no house can cost less than ten thousand—or was It one hundred thou sand ?. That idea, anyhow. I figured It would require considerable develop ment work to create a place like that —at least it sounds like a big order— so I applied as a pioneer of progress, and this morning had orders to report for duty.” Mary picked up the momentous doc um ent Paradise Valley, she read the heading—and again her father repeat ed her words. Mary paused, but he motioned her to go on. For reasons of his own he kept silent. If he told her certain things he might have told her, what good woulijf it do? No good. Her first-project would go “flooey” be fore she ever set out for It October 20, 1913,” Mary read on. Then, for reasons of her own, she skipped the rest of the heading—<3ad ..'ould just worry the more, the Iambi and everything would be all rig lA - and read the body of the letter./ It' was brief enough.' / f " “We can put you to work. Report at once. Salary $90 and field ex penses. “JOHN STARK, - “Engineer in Chief.” “I can live on that!” Mary hastened to assure her fatfc-r before he had tim e to remonstrate. But he agreed with her- "Yes. It’s about one-fourth of what your pin- money allowance has been, but you can live on i t Well, this sounds like rather an interesting adventure. Be sides, I know Stark well. He makes it easier for ine to 'let you go, daugh ter. He’s—the right sort. One of the old-timers.” Mary^wrecked his collar with a bear hug. “I knew you’d be for It" He glanced about the room. “I’ve no ticed a few evidences that you were assuming my consent Well, In the circumstances, why wouldn’t it be a good idea for the poor working girl to accept a Uft part of the way? I’m going as far as New Orleans, leaving at midnighL” “That will be great, dad!’’ . "Can you be ready?” “I can be ready In five minutes.” * , * » «. » . * » • The trip to New Orleans In the pri vate car. with Its splendid appoint ments, Its valet and maid service, was without thrill or excitement, being as fam iliar as bread and butter. Adven ture began when she went aboard the pullman on the westbound train at Jkew Orleans. “Surely you’ll at least.take a com partm ent!" her father hadurged. . “Eldlculous !■ I could Uve for a week on the extra fare.” “I’ll stake you to It as a golng-away present”- , Mary, drew herself up primly. “Sir I -can accept no favors, from benevo lent elderly gentleman — however sweet.” But when they entered the pullman to find the seat opposite Mary’s res ervation .occupied, by a man’s hat and bag, again David Brown remonstrated. But. Mary was adam ant “This will be jujtf fun, dad! I’m out to rub elbows with the world. How start better than by'treading on the toes of the man In upper six?" > ' ' The porter's /"All aboard I” came quickly, and Mary stood In the vesti bule to wave good-by. Just as If he hadn’t been father and mother' anid so close a friend that het j'dlbg created an ache'deep . within him ; just as If 'he didn’t worry.over her safety, secretly, David - .Brown w aved;back' to her.

Back of the cry "Ho- sanna" was being formed the awful cry "Cruclfj Him.” It may be pos sible that the awful word “Crucify” was uttered by some of the same per sons who cried “Hosanna." I. The Preparation (w . 1-tS). 1. The sending of the disciples for the ass (w . 1-3). Jesus told them just where to go to .find It and how to answer the Inquiry of the one who owned It This shows how perfectly .Jesus knows our ways. 2. The fulfillment of prophecy (vv. '4, S). Some five hundred years before, Zeehariah made this prediction (Zech. 9:9). Christ's coming in this way was In exact fulfillment of this prediction. This is highly Instructive to those wlio would understand as yet unfulfilled prophecies. The prediction of Zecba- rtah 14 :S-11 will be just as literally fulfilled as that of Zecharlah 9:9. ■3. The obedience of the disciples (v. 6). The request may have seemed unreasonable, but they obeyed. II. The Entrance of the King (w . 7-11). L The disciples put tlieir garments upon the ass and set the Lord there upon (v. 7). This act showed their recognition of him as their king (II Kings 9:13). ’ - • 2. The action of the multitude {vv. .8, 9), Some spread their garments In the way; others who had .no garments to spare cut down branches and did tiie same with them. - 3. T hejcity awakened (vv. 10, 11). It was a stirring time In Jerusalem, but a more stirring time awaits that city. This, will tal:e place when the ; Lord returns to the earth In power. " III. The King Rejected (vv. 1-2-16). The immediate. occasion of this re jection was the cleansing of the tem- ple/ A slmilar cleansing had been m ade-som e two years : before (John 2:13-17), but the worldlings had gone back to their old trade. Exchange was not In Itself wrong, but doing It fo r gain was^ wrong. ,v’; IV. The Nation Rejected by the king (vv. !MO). ; Having shown their unwillingness to receive Christ as their king when offi cially presented to them, the king now turns from them and makes known their awful condition In parables. 1. • The barren fig tree cursed (w . 17-22). It was on the morning after his official presentation as he was re turning from Jerusalem that Jesus observed the unfruitful- fig tree. Be cause of hunger he sought for figs and finding none, he caused to fall upon the tree a withering curse. The bar ren Bg tree is a type o f Israel.' With its leaves It gave a show of life, but being destitute of fruit it had oo right to cumber the ground. ;' The nation thus, stood as a-mountain In the way of the gospel. Jesiis encouraged the disciples by showing that If they had faith even this great mountain could not stand in their way. 2. The parable of tfcie two sons (w . 28-32). Both ,sons are told by the father to work ,In his vineyard. The one, like the profligate publican, re fused outright to obey but afterw ards repented and went; the other pre tended a. willingness .to obey but In reality did. not The first one repre sents the publicans and harlots; the second, the proud and ’ self-righteous Pharisees, the . priests, and elders. Jesus declared the publicans and har lots would go into the kingdom before them.' 3. The parable of the householder (vv. 83-46). a. The householder. This was God himself. b. The.vineyard. This means Israel (Isbu 5:1-7; Jer. 2:21; Pa. 80 :9). c. The husbandmen. These were the 'spiritual guides, the rulers and teachers of Israel. d. The servants sent for the fruit of the vineyard. These were the vari ous ^ prophets whom God sent e. The son sent by the householder. This was the Lord Jesus C hrist They • knew him to be the>on, but they did not show him reverence. .They , cast him out of the vineyard and slew !ilm. Value of Silence The devotional value! of silence Is recognized In a retreat, which may be. described as a period of silence spent with Go« broken.only by vocal.medi tation and prayer preparing for and arising ouf ^of the silence.

Great Love Not I of Sudden Birth Bond Never to Be Severed, R ather a M atter of Slow Growth. “M arriage is a task for m ature men and women. Love is the product of the correct solution of this task.” Reflecting on this statem ent,: a woman w riter of national , promi nence has this to say: “That seem s. to be putting the cart before the horse, doesn't it? But It is one of the truest and wis est things that have ever been said on a subject th at has not lacked ^ t- tention—love and marriage. “It is a doctor, W. Beran Wolfe, who had'the courage to publish that statem ent The point he m akes Is that more marriages would turn out well if husbands and wives acted ‘as if -love might be the reward of five or ten years of successful co-opera-, tion.’ 4Tt brings to the mind the Old con fusion between loving and b ein g ‘In love.’ The sensation of being In love is what most people feel for each1 other when they marry. They are attracted by various forces of -the other’s personality, in which they see their needs and their hopes .and their dreams fulfilled. In other words they are thrilled by the pros pect of what they are going to re ceive. ! “Loving, on the other hand is feel ing a bond between two hum an be ings that can never be severed, that even after the separation of death, gnaws and pulls one to the other. T hat bond cannot be forged In a day. The stories of certain great loves notwithstanding, it rarely strikes like a bolt of lightning. It must grow. And its growth is the product' of two people knowing each other; living together and growing together and perhaps working to gether and suffering together. It is -the result of people feeling for each other and understanding each other, in short, knowing each other and lov ing each other anyway ! That is why it is more rational to expect love as the result of a success ful marriage than the prelude to it, the reward of living together In such a way that attraction is en riched-by friendship and understand ing so that two people truly belong to each other, and through love, two become as one.

But there w ill also be occasion to “ Remember the Alam o!” and to re call again the names of Its heroic defenders— Bowie and Bonham and Travis and, most of all, Davy Crockett. For in the minds of most Americans Dary Crockett is the apotheosis of the Alamo and he is second only to Sam Houston as the most mem orable figure in the fight by Tesas fo r freedom from Mexico. Why? Perhaps the best explanation can be-found In the book “Davy Crockett" by Constance Rourke1 published recently by Harcourt, Brace and com pany. In the foreword to this volume, the auth or says: "When a country Is young It discovers Its heroes, and these are not always leaders In bat tle. They may only be men who have had the adventures others long for. They may show ad mired traits, or strange ones. They may talk or laagh In a fashion which others enjoy. Always stories are told about them. “Davy Crockett knew w ild life as few have Iniotvn it, and he became the most noted hunter of bis time. Even when h£ was an obscure back woodsman comical tales and high talk; could be heard about him, and his own humor had fame among the people of his region. When he emerged from the wilderness- and appeared in the East as congressman, he suddenly seemed to the popular imagination all that had been known or guessed about life In the western woods or on the western waters. There was truth In this; even In the most soaring o f the amnj tall tales about Crockett there was truth. “About no single American figure have so May legends clustered. A fter Crockett’s death thole cycles of legendary tales were told about him that form a rich outflowerlng of the American imagination. . . .” In those words is a definite clue.to the reason tthj the figure of Davy Crockett Is s till green In the memory of his fellow-Americans though a hundred years have passed since he stopped living and laughing his way Into the hearts of a I*ople. The fact that he “ had adventures others long for" is not enough to guarantee,his Immor tality. Daniel Boone had those adventures.! He also could "show admired traits.” And these, taken together, were enough to make him the jotstanding symbol of pioneer life, Of1 the Amer ican frontier. But Davy Crockett had something Wso which Boone had not—that g ift Ot humor »h!ch gave him “ fame among the people of his tegion”—a fame that soon spread to other re- Cons^ as well. He was both a teller o f “ ta ll tales” and an actor In them. So the legends egan to cluster about his name, fo r frontier Oeriea loved its “ whoppers." And, fo r that ®itter, because this so-called “ modern” America ' still so near to the frontier phase of Its n*- ®al hfe, it still loves them. erhaps another reason why this fact-and- j hero, Davy Crockett, Is s till such a vivid ofh! lD our national consciousness Is because ah rt»B°r(Is w*lich we associate w ith him : “ Go Mtk We Americans love mottoes, slogans, enworda and all such things..

If Davy’s motto was an apt one for his times, It seems to be equally so for the America of to day, even though we may have lost sight of its true meaning. For a belief, amounting almost to a certainty; In the rightness of-our country In all things seems to be an essential p irt of the American credo. We like to think that we are the greatest nation on earth, that we have “gone ahead” of every other nation. We have trans lated Davy’s “go ahead” Into "get ahead” and that we have done—sometimes as ruthlessly as did the frontiersmen of his time. But whether we have Interpreted his motto wrongly or right ly the fact .that he gave It to os and that we as sociate the admonition In It with his name Is perhaps another reason why he Is so well re membered. When did Crockett first use this motto? Mlss Ronrke In her book,dates It from shortly after the close of the W ar of 1812. Crockett, home from service under Jackson against the Creeks, had settled on new land near Shoal creek In western Tennessee.’ It was . w ild country w ith dangerous characters, both red and white, roam ing through I t A regiment of militia was organ- ' Ized by the settlers and Crockett was elected colonel. A little later they decided to set up a form of local governm ent and urged Davy to ac cept the position of magistrate. Says Miss — Finding that he would be obliged not only to write his name but to make out w arrants and keep a record of his proceedings, Crockett began to read whatever he could find and W practice the art of handwriting. This was slow work but I p made progress. It was a t this time that he began to L c rib e a motto at the end of docn- S t s . 'Be always svire you’re right, then go ahHavlng proved his ability is a local magis trate^ Crockett was next prevailed upon to be- come a candidate for the Tennessee state Iegis- S e . He was elected. Next they sent him to. lature. regard to his career there th a f tM 9 n e w biography brings b u t# part of the significance of Davy CroiUett In American his- tofy that other biographers seem to have missed. « Jh „„ his role as the champion of the J S S T R S f f S peculators; In what was then the West, Mlss Bourke says: "Crockett achieved a homely statesmanship. Ui0 hill dealing with this question was carefully thmight out and well pbrased. and he supported D a v y Sn S c h o o l it with a wealth of ready argum ent . . . His bill was defeated, as was an Important amend ment of his to another measure bearing on the same question.-. . . N onethelessC rockettstands head and shoulders above the average thinker of his time, even above many In high places, be cause of .his grasp of a fundamental principle and his willingness to fight for i t The cause was lost, but It was a great cause.” Thus It may be. seen that Davy Crockett was ! something more than a "coonskln congressman,” ; Something more than a picturesque bear-hunter ‘from the wilds of the West who, by some po litical accident, ,had a chance to participate In shaping'the beginnings of our democracy. But if later Americans have failed to appreciate his significance In that period, his own people ap parently were also blind to his true worth. Be cause he dared oppose Jackson, who was then rising oh his higl) tide of popularity, on both the land question and the Indian question, they de nied him re-election in 1831. But two years later he was again elected and more than before he became an outstanding fig ure In congress. He was now an out-and-out anti-Jackson man and an Increasingly danger ous obstacle to Jackson’s plan of handing the Presidency to Martin Van Buren when “Old Hickory” should- retire from the White House. In the spring of 1834 Crockett started on his tour of the eastern cities which became a ver itable triumphal progress—to Baltimore, to Phil adelphia, to New York, np Into New England, then through Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky. He made such an impression wherever he went that there was even talk of running him for President Then came the anti-cLimax -At the end of the rammer be was a candidate for re-election. But his enemies were busy. Thie full strength of the Jacksonian partisans In Tennessee was un leashed. Playing upon sectional prejudices, they used his Journey to N#w England against him. In a. bitter campaign In -which personalities out weighed the. real Issue at. stake Crockett-was de feated by a narrow margin. “Crockett had reached a turning point In the six or seven years lust past his entire course had been changed; he could hardly return to ' hunting and farming. . . . All his life he had been on the move and he had repeatedly gone from one frontier to another. He made a quick decision. I ’m going to Texas,’ he said.” It was his last Journey. The end of It Is one of the classics in American heroism. In the eple drama of the Alamo, as elsewhere back along the trail of his life, Davy Crockett held the center of the stage. “In the wild confusion Crockett seems to. have been everywhere at once,” writes Miss Rourke. “A story was told afterward that as he leveled, and fired his famous ‘Betsey’ he sang lnvitlhgly to the Mexicans: ‘Won’t yon come into my bower?’ This would have been like him ; ,perhaps he was heard singing this song In the earlier days of the siege. But when the final, attack began there would have been no time for song, nor’could any tune have been, heard In the terrific din.” ' The Mexicans could • kill Davy Crockett the man, hut they couldn’t kill Davy Crockett the hero' half man and half myth. “Stories about Crockett are still told In Kentucky and Ten nessee and In the Ozark mountains." says Miss Rourke. “Even now people In the Ozarka talk about as though be were still living Just over the next ridge.” _ , The otiier day a newspaper book reviewer be gan an article thus: “Twice In two weeks Davy Crockett crashes through, once In bis own story, once in this brilliant biography by Constance Rourke.” The reference to “his jjw n story” is to the fact that Charles Serlbner’s Sons had Issued “The Adventures of Davy Crockett: Told Mostly Mt Himself,” which Includes Davy’s AutdbIog-, raphy,” first published In 1834, and Ills “Texas Exploits Iind Adventures,” first published In 1836; In it Dayy CS1Ockett speaks from his unmarked crave In the “Thermopylae of America." Out from between the covers of these two books , steps the typical American frontiersman. Davy CroCkett still “goes ahead,” . Q by Westem Newspaper Onion.

Does it come from the profes sional soldiers we support from gener ation to generation by means, of pub lic taxation? If a man devotes his Ufe to soldiering,- of course he must believe in war. He must Invent new methods of attack and destruction, and tell how effectively they will work In practice. He writes In the free spaces of the newspapers about bis trade, and of his inventions: How he will fly over. an enemy country, and destroy cities, with a special kind of bomb be has thought up; how he will place germs In a special shell to be fired a t the enem y,' and cause the women and children, as well as the men, to die of plague. . . . Then the soldiers of other countries make reply by telling what they have thought up In the way of destruction. Finally we hate the Germans because of what their military men are willing to do to us, and the Germans hate us be cause of the terrible things our mili tary men are willing to do to them. A dispute between nations arises, and as the professional soldiers want a chance to use their new maneuvers and shells, they swagger around and-boast, in stead of “getting together," as sensible men should. Then some one steps on a c a t and millions who never-had a fight In their lives spend years In kill ing men they do not bate, and have no wish to harm. • • * A man who wanted a loan was asked: “How do you spend your In come?” And he replied: “Oh, about half for the car and the house: another half for food and clothing, and a third for miscellaneous things." “But that means your outgo is a third more than your income!” “That’s right—that's what I spend.” * * * In quarrels between husband and wife the main trouble usually is that one party to the quarrel Is a man, and the other a woman.

GREAT CITY’S DECLINE MedlnaceUI1 Spain, once a prosper ous city of 15,000 Inhabitants, Is slowly decreasing In size and, It U now feared, will disappear within a few years. Recent visitors report that the population, which was 5,000 only 40 years ago, Is now barely 700. At the- beginning of the Sixteenth century Medinacelli was a splendid Castilian metropolis, a coveted Moor ish stronghold and the key of the province of Aragon.

B y E D W A R D W . P IC K A R D MEMBERS of the American Society of Newspaper. Editors assembled in Washington heard a warm and elab orate defense of the New Deal deliv ered by Prof. Rexford 6 . Tugwell1 as sistant secretary of agriculture, who is in part responsible for most of the recovery measures adopted by the present administration. Denying that those who are advising the President seek to bring about radical changes In the life and economic policies of the American, people, Professor Tugweil described himself as a “thorough con servative.” “We have a saving irreverence of authority,” said Professor TugweU in speaking of the characteristics of the American people, “which gets us out of holes. These basic traits determine the structure of our laws and of our government. No one, with the slight est sense of history, would try to fit such a people into -a regimented scheme, would try to think for them instead of getting them to think for themselves. “Time will tell which in these times is the best American—those who be lieve that the racketeering, the finan cial Juggling, the exploitation of work ers and consumers must be ended once for all, and that continuity of in dustry must be .Uefinitely assured by whatever orderly political means can be found; or those who believe it more important that some few Insiders should be allowed to manipulate ma terials, natural forces and social Insti tutions for their own good at the ex pense of all the rest “Democracy has been living a pre carious life among our business insti tutions; its enemies in this country were In a fair way to have it strangled and laid quietly aside until the New Deal came along. For they did not realize that real democracy 'cannot be destroyed without provoking a re volt on the part of its practitioners. “Farmers were being starved off their land; workers were denied ac cess to idle factories. A kind of spe cious and purely formal political proc ess was being used as a stalking horse for privilege! and threatening oligarchy.. I have-never lent myself to this su preme chicanery and.I am not likely to do so as long as I keep any realistic sense at all. “The New Deal Is not something which can establish itself in the mind of a dictator or a- small governing group. That was the fatal theory'of the system from which we are turning away. Its base has to be as broad as the economy which has to be brought under control and as deep as the ininds. and the hearts of the people whom it affects.” there was no indication the.govern ment will embark, on such a policy. The President indicated a desire to have further talks with the silver sen ators and there will be other confer ences, according to Senator William H. King, Democrat, of Utah, chairman of the silver committee, and other sena tors who attended the conference. It was quite evident Mr. Roosevelt was not In favor of any mandatory legis-' Iation, at,least, at this time. / L aterit was. reliably staled that the President was maturing a plan for in ternational stabilization of currencies and that silver figures prominently in i t Mr. Roosevelt, It was revealed, fa vors the inclusion of silver in the met al base of currency issues to the ex tent of 30 per cent, the remaining 70 per cent to be gold. This change can be safely made, however, the President points o u t only by international agree ment whereby all the signatory nations would admit silver to their reserves against which paper money is issued. In the London economic and mone tary conference Senator Key Pittman offered such a plan, proposing that cen tral banks keep 20 -per cent, or one- fifth, of their metal cover or reserve for currency In silver. The proposal was not acted on at the conference. SERIOUS times for the railroads are at hand. They ..face the possibility of a general strike, and the President has warned them that if they do not reorganise their debts a t the expense of their stockholders, and sta bilize their labor con d i t i o n s, government control or ownership may be the result The wage controversy came to a head when t > J j the railway .labor of- ** ficials rejected Presi- Ih ? 4 S 9 M dent Roosevelt’s re- i n fIuest that the 10 per ‘ ‘ cent reduction be con tinued, and thej railway executives said they would not consider any settle ment more favorable to labor than this. Joseph B. Eastman, co-ordina tor of- transportation, who had been carrying on the negotiations, immedi ately withdrew as mediator, saying there was nothing he could accomplish. He asserted he believed the negoti ations would continue under'the pro visions of the railway labor act. But A. F. Whitney, president of the Rail way Labor Executive association, was far less hopeful. “Our only alternative appears to call for a strike ballot In order to prove our point in this m atter” said. Whit ney, “and if this is done there can be but one answer from the men who have been receiving such a beggarly stipend.” President Roosevelt appointed Secre tary of Commerce Roper, Secretary of Labor Perkins and Attorney General Cummings, a committee of three, to study the m atter of stabilizing rail road labor and financial policies. He feels the railroads must wipe out the threat of receiverships by scaling down their fixed. charges, and must settle their disputes with labor finally. Holding that the railroads are far overexpanded because of their 1915- 1929 building boom, the'President feels that the carriers may. never again be able to earn the interest paymentB on the bonds which were floated to finance the building of tracks, stations; and rolling stock, O ENATORS who-urge the remonettz- Q ation of silver held a conference with President Roosevelt but' received from him no encouragement for silver legislation, though no conclusion was reached. The possibility of silver pur- : chases was discussed and the President indicated a disposition to give this m atter consideration; but on the. whole: JOHN DILLINGER, the notorious' outlaw, and several members of his gang fought their way out of a trap laid by federal agents and possemen ten miles " east of Manitowish, In north ern W isconsin. In three desperate gun battles three men were killed a n d e i g h t w o u n d e d , and the. bandits escaped into the woods. Threewom- _ en woo had been with k . J l the Dimnger g a n g R ^ • were arrested. Two; otners were believed to have fled with the desperadoes. T h e s e two came Li uHi iuiuuca^vii, and were thought to have warned DilIinger of the Impending raid ^n the camp where he had been for several days. “ Some hours after, the battles in Wis consin three members of the gang were" seen by three deputy sheriffs In a suburb of St. Paul, Minn. A funning gun fight ensued and one of the gang-; sters apparently was wounded, but the trio escaped and stole an automobile in which they headed for the bridge across the Mississippi river. Federal and-local officials through out all that region were on the lookout for the Dillinger gang with the tacit understanding that the desperadoes would be shot on sight John Dillinger VARIOUS_writers In magazines and newspapers tell us that the chance of war in Europe is remote, but al most daily circumstances come to light that contradict this optimistic view. Here are some recent instances: Orders have been sent out for the twenty-year-old youths of Germany to report for duty in military or labor camps, which would Indicate that Chancellor Hitler’s Nazi government Is quietly but efficiently providing mil itary training for all these young men the same as if military conscription for a full-sized army "were permitted by international agreement. Young men employed in factories and shops must belong to' storm groups. Only storm troopers get jobs. Labor camps provide military . training for those who, for some reason or other, did not become storm troopers. Many of these labor camps are virtually military fin ishing schools for storm troopers. Tar get practice V and v; similar military maneuvers are staged. Michael Kalinin, president of Soviet Russia, has demanded the “intensive militarization” of- all. rural-Russia- as. part of general preparations for de fense against war. He says: “We also must have a strong rear line con nected with the front by thousands of. threads. .The chief task is to train women and children and others not fit for military service to carry out the work of collective farming when all able-bodied persons are. mobilized, so that normal functions will not“be In terfered with.

Dis a rm a m e n t negotiations under present conditions are futile, In the official opinion of the French gov ernment, and it will have nothlng more to do with them, returning instead to. its old plan for national security founded on armaments and. allies. This is the gist.of a note,delivered to the British government which is held to be a-death blow to any accord-on armaments. The blame -for failure of negotiations Is laid by the French on Chancellor Hitler and his - Nazi gov ernment of Germany. . The note described the increased. German military budget as a “men ace” and declared the German gov ernment, without awaiting, the results of negotiations in progress, has snown its determination to continue ail, forms of -'rearmament In violation - of the treaty of Versailles. ' “The Germah government,” the note charged, “intends, to increase imine- dlately on a. formidable scale not oiiiy the strength of its arm y but also its naval and air forces. “Whatever explanation, may. be a d vanced, facts of such exceptional gravity can lead to only one observa-. tlon and conclusion. They prove the German government has made Impos sible further negotiations.” ' . Foreign Minister Barthou has advo cated ■ an armaments agreement even if the French had to make great sac rifices, but the Nationalist members of the cabinet, including Marshal Petain, minister of war, and Andre TaTdieu, vice premier, overruled. him and forced the writing of the note in ac cord with their views. Barthou has now gone to Poland to try to break up the growing ac cord' between that nation and Ger many; and in Paris the Rumanian for eign minister Nicholas Titulescu, was helping to reinforce the alliance be tween-France and the little entente. British government officials were still hopeful of results from tie dis armament conference, but the chances of its success were still further mini mized when Fulvio Suvich, Italian undersecretary for foreign affairs, had a talk with French Premier 'G aston Doumergue in Paris. The latter reit erated that France would refuse to “legalize” rearmament of Germany or undertake to reduce her own military strength under such conditions. The premier made it plain that France would not discuss Mussolini’s arm s ; limitation scheme or any other plan except at Geneva With Germany rep* resented. M L, WILSON, director of the diri- • sion of subsistence homesteads of the Department of the Interior, has issued a warning to the public to .be-. ware of speculative land settlement promotions “masquerading as projects' of- the government’s subsistence home steads, program.” He says many pro motions have come - to the attention o f: his division, continuing: ' “ ‘ ’ “Through: suggestive advertisements" or by means of strongly colored sales talks, promoters have' reported th a t -: they have the backing of ,the federal; government through the subsistence homesteads program where their claims are entirely false: “These promoters are preying upon ' families who desire to leave the city- for rural or.sem irural living and they : serve to im pede,the progress of the division’s program. Even a' cursory- examination of the representations of these promoters indicates they are' ut terly lacking in good faith.” PEACE in the automobile industry; was disrupted again when the work-' ers In the Fisher Body plants in-; Cleveland and S t Louis- and the Chevrolet plant In the latter city went on strike.

Of such a type were the charges by Dr. William A; Wirt, the school super intendent from ; Gary, Ind., who as serted that “brain trusters” of the Roosevelt administration were seeking to overthrow our form of government and establish a communistic or Rus-. sian Soviet state in its place. Doctor W irt’s . accusations came out of the blue sky, so to speak, because there w a s’no advance notice of, them. Of course, there -were thousands of -per sons who. were uneasy abouf the trend of, events and the plans of the New Dealers. Apparently, -however, roost of them were unwilling to make them selves a target for the' unbelieving by becoming vocal about their opinions. So, the setting in which Washington observers found themselves was, to say the least, a new one. With these facts in mind, I have awaited .an exposition of Doctor W irt’s charges before attem pting to analyze them or to fit . them into other things that have been happening to make a complete picture ,His appearance be fo re'th e house committee of Inquiry left nothing to be desired in the dra matics. He was there, accompanied by that famed attorney, former Senator Jam es A. Reed of. Missouri, which was. In itself, a'surprise. And Doctor Wirt stood up against- the barrage of at tempts to discredit him! He never flinched; he fought back, and he was apparently convinced of his Own find ings, i a fact that gave him added courage.' ' ' Doctor W irt wasted no words in tell ing of the famous party in a nearby •Virginia home where Lawrence Todd, WaSbington representative of the Rus sian' Soviet news agency “Tass” and several “ satellites” of the brain trust were at dinner with the Indiana edu cator. He quoted Todd a s th e 'a u thority for the statement- that - Presi dent Roosevelt, was the “Kerensky” of the present revolution and that presently Mr: Roosevelt would be sup planted by a “Stalin,” even as oc curred In Russia. Of course, ■ Mr. Todd h as. no part In the government, officially, and a good many of those who scoffed at Doctor. W lrt originally contended the charges were just “baloney.” But he made the statements under oath and their effect how is the thing with which we are concerned. For to say that the charges have had no effect is to make a statement tbatfttie mpon is made of green cheese. • *. * • To those of us -whose job It-is to keep a finger on the pulse of public sentim ent.lt has been R e a c tio n apparent for several S e ts I n months that a reac tion against many of the New Deal principles had set In. I, for' one,' however, .was unable to; gauge it accurately.:: I could pot Jell how deeply rooted these convictions • were. It required some such'incident as the w irt charges to focus attention on the fact that there were doubters before' most of us here could gain an idea of th e “oppositionist” movement that appeared to exist. Let me say at this point, too. that it is apparent Mr, Roosevelt is. not the only target; the criticism seems to be more of the Ideas prompted by his brain trust ad visers than the President’s own re form or recovery principles. There is a decided difference, one realizes,-be tween the tw o,. for one group In the administration is promoting reform and another recovery. Here is .where the W irt testimony becomes important in its effect By making the charges, Doctor VVlrt di rected attention to the two schools of thought In effect he has called upon the country to distinguish between re form, and recovery programs, and has asked the question whether we shall sacrifice recovery in order that reform Ideas may be forced down the throats of those who find, It difficult to swal low untried theories. There can be no . doubt that several .millIons,-of .Americans who,^ hereto fore; were willing to trust Mr. Roose velt to run the whole show, are now making-individual examinations of the' structure which the New Dealers have; or propose to. set up. I think it equal- Iy -,true ■ as well ’that-these examina tio n s by individuals will result In a crystaIllzlng of opinions more than has happened np to this time.

Conse quently, there was haggling without end. I believe the consensus among the hundred-odd correspondents who were reporting the hearing was that Representative Bulwinkle of North Carolina, a Democrat and the chair, man, reflected no particular ere® upon himself or the committee as io- quisitors. Criticism of Representa tive McGugin, a Repuhlican from Km. sas, also was heard, for Mr. McGugio went just as far in supporting the nit- ness as Mr. BulwinUle did in bar- rassing him. In the background of the commltte, haggling, stood the toll, gray-balmi figure of “Jim” Reed. Senator Reeit when he was in the senate, was prob ably the most feared of all debaters, His vitriolic retorts and cutting Sole ments seldom failed to make spine quiver. His presence as Doctu Wirt’s counsel failed at first to check Mr. Bulwinkle. but the fact that he was there provided Mr. McGugin with assurance of help In any battle of words. . I Certain evidence of people’o view . always is reflected in congress rather, quickly after changes in sentimenl take place, and it is no different now. There was a time during the fct months of President. Roosevelt’s ad ministration when anything be sent to congress was put through, and no questions were asked. Currently, how ever, there is a disposition among members of both political parties In congress to inquire into the character of legislation they are putting through. For example, the bill that the Presi dent wanted for controlling the so curity exchanges, like the New fori Stock Exchange, was advertised by Democratic leaders at first as being ready to go through without question. Mr. Roosevelt said he wanted “teeth in it, and teeth were put in it. plenty of them. Indeed, the proposed legis lation would have left little of the stock exchange to operate.

Mary, daughter of Darid Brown, self-made multi-millionaire, in a spirit of revolt, insists that she should have the right to mafee^her own way in life, “unshackled” by the world’s idea that her school and college successes, which have been brilliant, have been made easy because she is the daughter of the “rich David Brown.” She has graduated with honors from a course of civil engineering. Mary has $1,000,000, a legacy from her mother, which she insists her father should invest for her in the “wildest dream imaginable,” she not to know what it is. He falls in with her humor. Answering an advertisement as “M. Brown,” Mary, after overcom ing opposition to her employment, on account of her sex, secures an engineering position with ■ the Paradise Valley Project, a Cali fornia development in which, un known to her, of course, her father has invested her million dollars. On her way to California she meets and is rescued froin an em barrassing situation by Denis Craig, who, she finds on her arrival, is the head of the project. Mary makes good her boast that as an engineer she can “do any thing a man can do.” Doing her full share of the engineering work and joyfully sharing the unavoid able hardships of the life, she “es tablishes” herself and wins the esteem and friendship of the men . associated with her, they knowing her only as “Mary Brown.” She feels she has “made good” and has" been justified in breaking away from the “golden ball and chain” which she resented. In the end Fate overcomes her and she returns to her proper sta tion in life, unembittered by her failure, although convinced that life’s conventions are unfair to a girl who would escape from the stigma of the “idle rich.” But she has won the love of Denis Craig, I who wooed her as plain “Mary ,' Brown,” and she loves him In re- I tum. I This is a delightful girl’s story 1 that all readers will enjoy. Sales Tax Abandoned. Daytona Beach, Fla., municipality, has abandoned the two per cent, srles tax which was originally pass ed to go into effect April I. Other sources of revenue are being sought. Opposition to the sales tax grows •everywhere when the buying public realize that the sales tax is a method •of raising revenue by which the tax burden i3 shifted from those most stble to these least able to pay taxes. The sales'tax shifts the burden of supporting yo-ernment to the fac tory workers and tenant farmers aid the very large class of wage etrner3 whose incomes are below $2,500 a year. For over twe-thirds of the merchandise sold is purchased by this class. The sales tax taxes every woman and child in the State. It is a tax on the necessities of decent livmgand is not besed on ability to pay—the true basis of any fair system of taxation. —Winston Journal. Where Did AU The Money Come From.

So you tell her, Maria. It’s your place to.” Thus in fan letters such as the above has Captain Henry’s show boat (heard, every Thursday night over an NBC network) become an American insti tution. It is doubtful if any other pro gram on the air has such a compelling power of convincing its followers that its characters are real. A radio critic once said:, “Show boat is a fascinating program. It has the cozy feeling of informality like-a ‘home talent’ performance." Informal in. Tone That is one of the secrets of the pro gram’s success. It is, as the critic said, “informal.” It has sometimes the "feel” of a home talent offering, but the im-. petus of brilliant showmanship is be hind It. ■ The story of the show boat is told simply, Its people act naturally. Love,' jealousy, sorrow, joy exercise their elemental sway over the hearts of the simple folk of Captain Henry’s little family. And the friends of the family (the fans), you may be sure, deeply sympathize. There is a very intim ate tone in all the fan' maiL An old acquaintance of Captain Henry wrote: “Dear Cap: We boys out'here are'enjoying your fine program since you have become a show boat .captain. The opera house out here which you used to play in thirty years ago is now a movie, but we fellows who used to be stage hands have not for gotten how you used to tell us stories between turns in the old prop room with all the posters of actors and actorines.on the wall.’t ■ m The crew of Captain Henry’s show boat (heard every Thursday night from 9 to 10) reading from left to right: (top) Lanny Ross, show boat tenor whose heart Mary Lou has. in her keeping; Mary, Lou, the adored of show boat fans; (middle) Irene Hubbard, who plays Maria; Charles Winninger who plays the genial Cap tain Henry; Conrad Thibault, handsome baritone; (bottom) the Shovr Boa Four, singing into the mike.

For once it seems that the office had to seek the men in Davie in stead of the men seeking the office. The United States Chamber of Commerce thinks the N RA hasn’t done much toward restoring pros perity in this country. A lot of other folks think the same thing. Be youdem ocrator Republican, ask your candidate for the legis lature how he stands on the sales tax and prohibition. These are the two big questions that will come before the next legislature. lf vou have be.come of age since the last election, or if you have moved from one precinct to another, you will have to register or you can’t vote in the June primary. The registration books are now open and will remain open until sundown on Saturday. May iejtb. If you havent registered, do so before the books close. Those who didn’t file for a county office before sundown Tast Saturday will Ifttve to wait two years before they can even tbirk about running for any kind of an elective office. . The thing now. fac ing the boys who entered the Dri m a ry jsto get the voters out. in November. That is the time their votes will be needed.-- Once in a w hile we listen -over th e radio to a political speech. A few nights ago we heard a lady ■ w ho is-runniD g for ^ee-m afee^S i aw ful BnppplIJogrtwrtfg in the June prim ary. The lady let her listeners Itnow that she- was Tunning on a platform to do away with the N orth Carolina dry laws. She argued that the more open places th at sold whisky legally the Ies^ liquor would be consumed and the xnore revenue the stale would get. Boston tried prohibition aud last year went back to legalized liquor. A rrestsincieasedover 40 per cent after the prohibition laws were re pealed Just as well argue that one rattlesnake is as dangerous to a community as a hundred rattle snakes You can’t stop liquor drinking by legalizing Us sale.

Satur day or Monday May .11. 12, or 14th and be prepared to give an accurate account of'the cotton produced upon your farm for the years 1928 1929 1930-1931 and 1932. Even if there has beep jione grown and you inten'l to plant some this year, come in :anywav. Tenants should be prepared to give acreage and yield for farms upon which they now live. It is going to be absolutely necessary that you do this, otherwise when the allotment in Davie is made you probably will not get your proportionate part. Be sure to nave all information regarding past production , ac- curateT Those farmers who have sighed a Mark eting Contract and not come in. Just those who haV^: not signed. To help you in determing how much to plant you can do'the following; take the a verage production of the farm on which you live excluding 1983 and plant approxi mately 50 per. cent of that. L. H.

Every one seemed to be trying to find out all about one person, a very fair young man with an engaging per sonality. He was slight of build, im m aculate of dress, with a scrubbed, and tubbed look. His features were finely molded. His mouth had been fashioned to pleasant lines by a smile that came easily. Deep-blue eyes, com panions to the mouth In their humor ous slant on life, challenged one to guess whether they were the eyes of a dreamer or a hard-headed business man. The sort of man to make instant appeal. •And yet the first words she heard him utter antagonized Mary Brown. ' ' “Money talks!” he was laughing as she appeared In the doorway. ‘‘It’s the sine qua non of all our endeavors, of our successes. W ithout it our dreams must end just as dreams, not as achievement And is it hard to get? I know! I’ve pleaded, begged, coaxed, cajoled, demanded, and threatened, in ;the Interest- of this scheme of mine. Amazing, how bard it is to convince moneyed interests that you have a good, thing, but,’’ whimsically, . “per- haps that’s why.’ they’re; moneyed. Now—” .. ' He 'broke off to spring.to hidfeet. ; H ei alone had 'noticed Mary entering Jthe car. T here. werfe ho vacant chairs. “Will you sit here?” he asked' with his intriguing smile. v Biit it was lost on M ary.. ' . > “Thank you. I’m going outside,"' she replied, indifferently. The door banged. behind her, shut ting; out further conversation. “A spell-blnder,” she diagnosed the fair young man. “Selling himself and heaven knows what else by the magic of his personality. I, wish dad could see him work!” .. Then she turned her back upon the gulleless-looking individual who so un consciously had courted her disfavor. Just another person whose god was money! . ^ Mary realized she was hungry;.,it was dinner time. She hurried back, tidied herself a bit, and went forward to the diner. When she returned to her section the seat across from her was occu pied—by the fair young man! He arose as'sh e hesitated by her seat, “I’ve been wondiering who my neigh bor was,” he • said pleasantly. “My name is Denis Craig. I hope I’m not to be In your way here.” Maiy acknowledged the introduction by no more than a suspicion vf. a nod. If she had deigned him a glance, she would have ,seen the blue eyes darken mischievously. “I can see that I’m not going to be In yoiir way, however. Something tells me I’m practically not here a t all.” . “At least,” Mary couldn't keep back, “it ought to make a nice change for you. It must be—fatiguing—to be hero-’worshiped. I always feel sorry for movie idols, golf pros, baseball stars, presidents—” She hesitated,; not knowing Just where to catalogue him, “In some places,” he supplied ban- teringly, “I have the reputation'of be ing a professional swindler,” : “How interesting! And your line, from scraps I overheard, may be oil stock or real estate." “Good guess!” ’be laughed; “It’s real estate. Would you be interested?” ‘Tl! save you exertion by saying I haven’t money enough to buy the fence around It, let alone the orange ranch. Statue of Liberty; Masonic Temple or Golden Gate. Oh, M ri CadylV Mary sprang up with a sudden change, of m ahher-as the: fatherly farmer and his wife stopped across the aisle. “Is this your, section? HowJ nice! May I drop over for a little Chat with you?” And' she seated herself beside the pair at' whose table she had been placed In the diner. V- . ; But unfortunately Dems Craig had warmed to them, too, and they to him. “Well now, ain’t . this Hice* being neighbors, us four? Come oyef and join us. Mr. Craig. You’ve met Miss Brown, of course?” , . The blue eyes twinkled wickedly; “To be exact, I believe Miss Brown has met me. but I have not yet had th e 'pleasure of meeting her. Thanks, I won’t joint you just now. find the porter." “It won’t do you any good,” Mary said. “My father tried to get me a whole section—but the ,train is too i crowded.” Still, it won’t do any harm to try,” lightly. “Every man has his price, they say.” “You may discover,” Mary did not try to disguise her scorn, “that money isn’t everything." Denis Craig looked surprised at this' sudden burst of strong feeling, but the amusement deepened in bis eyes. He went on down the ’ corridor. Mary kept the conversation away from- nice young men, thus snubbing her own ridiculous curiosity as to this par ticular one who- presently returned and began gathering up his luggage. “I—I'don't uuitcsee how you—man aged!" Mary said. His blue eyes were dancing. “I just' raised the ante.” He followed the porter down the aisle to the undesirable berth just over the wheels—for which he had just paid a premium. Mary Brown, as she retired, felt un comfortably as if she literally had trodden on the toes of this man. Why, had she been so rude as to do so? Why Iiad she even been Interested enough to do so? C H A PT ER III Stranded Without Funds. “Pa, you step over to the depot and get me some postcards to send the children.” “Now, Ma, why didn't you speak of It when the train first stopped? They,, ain’t time now. Besides, what do the girls care for a collection of post offices—’’ “Pa, this is a border town. You might pick up something wild!” “I’ll go!" offered Mary Brown, break-, ing away from the couple with whom she had been strolling, the next morn-, ing, up and down the-station platform;;' In El Paso. ' J j She hurried to the. bopth. wnereV souvenir cards were on " exhibition.? Yes, here was a wild one.

I want to She looked for a fastening; found none. The train was moving. yShe pulled at the gate, pushed at the gate, yanked at fhe gate. It w ould. not budge. She made, frantic gestures at the departing train. Now some one was leaping over the railing of the observation car, running toward her. “This is an exit, not an entrance.” Denis Craig was explaining.. “It opens only from the outside in. Here—” and he pushed it open, seized Mary by the arm, and together they ran across the intervening tracks—to stop shortly with that sense of foolishness one ex periences only after he. has set off down the rails after a departed train. “We’re—we’re left!’’ “Does sort of look that way, doesn’t It?” smiled the engaging yoUng man. “But-don’t look so dismayed.. There’s another train in a few-hours. I’ll wire the conductor to put off our luggage, at the next stop. Then we’ll take a taxi and do the town, Be rather fun to go across the border and prowl around Juarez, don’t you. think?" She wanted ridiculously, overwhelm ingly to say yes. But an unusual pen versity seized her. The intriguing, young man was so cocksure! He toofc it absolutely for granted that, she’d, trust herself to him. Let him dist cover there was one person in the world immune to that engaging per sonality. , Cool as a long slim icicle she in formed him, “I wouldn’t think of troubling you further. A nd-I can send1 my own telegram—" ShO gave a startled cry. In her hands were three souvenir postcards —nothing else.' “My bag!” she gasped.' “I—I must have left it at thej magazine stall!” She was off on the run, Denis Oralg beside her. : . BUt the bag" was’not there.- “Some one has picked .It up.; of course,’ Oraig when the clerk had thorough search. “But—my money! My. ticket! Every thing! If I was at sea before—I’m sunk now!”TO The committee has made .the lesson unit to embrace chapters 22 and 23. Objection may be offered to this be cause of the great scope and also the dissimilarity of material. Tt is better to confine the lesson to chapter 22:15- 22, 34-40. However, verses 1-14 pro vide the necessary background from which to view the teachings of the lesson. The parable of the king’s marriage feast stresses the necessity of a right relationship to God, which is essential for a life of temperance and good citizenship. I. The Tribute Money (w . 16-22). 1. The subtle question (w . 14-17). The Pharisees and Herodians.purposed to entrap Jesus and thus bring him Into conflict with the Roman govern ment. Therefore they came to him with the subtle question, “Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?” To have answered this question by either “yes" or “no” would have Involved difficulties. “Yes” wouid have con- Jveyed- the impression of endorsement of all that the Roman government did. "“No” would have at once brought him into, conflict with the government. There.are times when It Is.difficult for .a Christian to determine his right re flation to civil government Some min- i Jsters have failed in their work be- Aause of their failure to solve this ,problem. 2. Christ’s reply (vv. t8-21). The principle set forth In this reply when .properly understood and applied is the final word on . the Christian's relation ship to'etvll government The obliga tion o ftheC hrlstian' citizen, is to ren-;. -der! obedience ; to civil .;authorlty in all m atters which .do not violate God’s ■m Jaw . . .^’Render-.rtnfp.Caesar, the -thingsi '^ i-^ a t-a re Gaesar’s^rmeans that WlthTfr the realm of ..the rights of government the Christian should yield glad and free obedience. Christ’s answer not oniy. sets forth; the Christian’s rela tionship to government but also the correct principles governing all lives. '.Those--enjoying the benefits of civil ’government should- support that gov ernment, and those: enjoying the bless ings of God should render full al- : Iegiance to him. II. The First and Great Command ment In the Law (yv. 34-40). - For the third time in one day the Lord was tried by hard questions. While these questioners were prompt ed by wrong motives, we should be 'forever glad they were put to the . Lord because of the invaluable truths disclose'd. by bis answers. . L The Pharisees’ question (vv. 34- 36). w ith a lawyer as their represent ative they asked which Is the great commandment in the law. 2. Jesus’ answer (vv. 37-40). In this answer he summarized the law and set forth the sum total of a human responsibility. This embraces two commandments. ’ a. The first commandment (vv. 37, 38). “Thou sh a lt. love the Lord thy God" with all they heart, with all thy Soul' and with all thy mind.” This means that supreme and undivided love to God is the first and great commandment. It shows that man's supreme obligation is to God. It is utterly wrong to evaluate man's char acter on the basis of his morality as expressed In his relation to his fellow man. Real righteousness is doing the right thing with God, b. The second commandment (vv. 89, .40). The second commandment Is like unto the first In that It centers In love., it is not said that it is equal unto the first, which would be untrue; A man may love, himself but not su premely. The measure set is love for self. We are under obligation to love God better than ourselves because he Is the supreme one and Worthy and demands all of our affection. The commafid to love our neighbor is in volved In the command to love God. To attem pt to establish a brotherhood among men without the recognition of the Fatherhood of God is otter non sense. Men become children of God Ay faith In Jesus Christ. The only way - to bring In the brotherhood of man- is. to preach Jesus .Christ .to the race and ‘ secure, acceptance of him. A discriminating taste In foods Is a sign of the epicure. In the United States we are beginning to lose this nicety of discrimination. We have become so accustomed to mixing all sorts of ingredients to gether in order to get something new and different, that our appreci ation of what constitutes congenial ity of ingredients.ds getting dimmed. There can be ill-chosen mixtures which make dishes almost unpalat able, Vet which persons hesitate to say they don’t like, lest they appear to be out of tune with modern ideas of culinary art- There is a notice able, presence., of.finesse In combina tions of Ingredients which distin guished the dishes of the famous old- time chefs. A cultivated taste in foods, one Which makes fhe epicure, is quite another thing from the un cultivated. appetite which considers odd mixtur.es constitute fine menus. There is no reason why ingredients which do not form unwholesome chemical combinations should not be put together In-the cause of variety in dishes, as far as a digestible diet is concerned. It is rather the knowl edge of what form happy combina tions of ingredients, as well as wholesome ones, which distinguishes the fine chef from the mediocre one of today, as of yore. One of the main tests Is in the use and the com bination of flavorings, seasonings, of herbs, pungent and sweet, and the quantity of each needed to supply delicacy or zest to dishes. Another test of the good eook Is the sauces she makes. Bi these the variety of ingredients is often large, and they must be congenial. The use of different sauces at different times on the same foods lends as much variety to a dish as do com binations of ingredients in the dish Itself. There are sweet and tart sauces, and sour-sweet ,sauces. There are bread. sauces. and fruit sauces. There are piquant sauces and coat ing sauces. There are sauces for fish, meat and fowl, for eggs, for puddings, and ices. A good sauce and one appropriate to the food Is “the making” of many delicious dishes of very inexpensive foundations. The meat used in mak ing soup can be transformed Into a main dish to satisfy an exacting ap petite, if a good bechamel sauce is poured over, i t ' Lbbster or oyster stince , wili supply a 'rather, flavorless’ boiled, fish, suclt as haddock or cod, with jiist the'right taste to make It worthy to. be set; before guests. Cab- - bage becomes a. dish for ’ an epicure When It 'is .shredded, boiled a few minutes In many times its bulk of rapidly bubbling hot-w ater, drained well and mixed . w ith - hollandaise • sauce. Y .;■■ It is worth while for a . homemaker to study flavors and seasonings of her own combining, and to make sauces in variety, if she would suc cessfully supply a note of difference to her menus.

For the stamps bear the reproduction of James Abbott M cNeill W histler’s famous painting which Is called "Arrangement In Gray and Black," but which is more fam iliar to his I fellow-Americans as “ W histler’s Portrait of His Mother,’’ or, more I simply still, “ The Mother.” Although Anna M athilda M cNeill Whistler needs nothing more than tliis painting to guarantee her im m ortality, yet the choice of her portrait for reproduction on a special commemorative stamp issue this year (the first time, incidentally, that such notice has been taken of Mother’s day) Is an additional honor conferred upon her. In a ll of our history, only three other women have had that distinc tion. They were Pocahontas, the Indian" prin cess; Isabella, the Spanish queen; and Martha Washington, wife of our first President.’ But Anna Mathilda McNeill W histler is not the only one who is honored in this year’s Mother’s day stamp. It was issued also to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of the event which took place in Lowell, Mass., on July 10, 1834— J the birth of the son Vho was to achieve such world-wide fame himself and to bring a sim ilar world-wide fame to her by his portrait of her. . It is doubtful if any other painting ever put on canvas is so well known to so many people. Reproductions of it, running up -into the m illions In numbers, have been printed and these , prints have gone to every corner of the earth. During the last year and a half, while it was in this country under a loan agreement from the French government, it was exhibited in 12 leading cities throughout the United States and It is estimated that during its triumphal tour more than 2,000,- OOO persons viewed it. Several hundred thou sands more will have been added to that number before it is sent back to Paris late this month (for the agreement with the French government calls for its return by June I) to resume Its honored place in the Louvre. For five months of the time that the painting was on a tour of the country it was exhibited nt the Chicago Art institute in connection w ith A Century of Progress. But among the thou sands who saw it there and who also saw the replica of Fort Dearborn on the exposition grounds It is doubtful if one in a thousand realized that there was a historical, if not a cultural, link between the world-famous paint ing, the highest exemplification of a man’s skill In the line of fine arts, and the crude architec ture of a building which had only the very u tili tarian purpose of preserving the lives 'o f its In habitants from savage hatred. That lin k Is the theme of this story. Zttle ^tory has its beginning In Ireland more than 175 years ago. In the year 1758 there was rn to an English fam ily named W histler, Hv- IrfVJere' a son t0 whom WJts given the name John. Long before he had reached his m ajori- U young John Whistler ran away from borne , Jhihed the British army.

John W histler as commandant. Accordingly the fort was built In the summer of 1803; given the name si Fort Dearborn, In honor of Gen. Henry Dearborn, then secretary of war, and thus Capt. John Whistler became the real “father of Chicago.” The original draft for the plans of the fort, drawn by_ Captain Whistler, is still In the archives of the War de partm ent a t’ Washington—a good soldierly job, it is, but revealing none.of the artistic qualities which were-later to make the name of W histler so famous. ... For the n e x t;nine years John Whistler, as builder of the fort and Its commandant, dom inated the little, community In this lonely out post of .civilization which was to become the second largest city In the United States. But the building and the commanding were not the only contributions he made to the history of Fort Dearborn and the beginnings of Chicago. He brought with him a growing family, some of whose members were destined for renown even greater than his. His eldest son, William Whistler, accompanied him to Chicago as a second lieutenant and served there throughout’ the elder Whistler’s term of service. His eldest daughter, Sarah, was married in November, 1804, to James Abbott, a trader of Detroit, -thus becoming Chicago’s first bride. Another daughter married Lieut. Joseph Hamilton, w ho' was also a subaltern under W histler at Fort Dearborn. But our chief Interest is in a toddling child of three who came with bis father to Chicago in 1803. His name was George Washington Whist ler. Thus did the ex-British soldier honor the great commander of the “rebels” against whom he had fought under Burgoyne. Toung George Washington W histler grew up into sturdy boy hood along the marshy banks of the Chicago river and on the sandy shores of Lake Michigan. He was only ten years old when, as the result of a garrison feud, the W ar department thought It advisable to scatter the officers at Fort Dear born to various posts In the Middle West and the boy accompanied his father back to D etroit And there, two years later, young George Wash ington W histler probably witnessed the scene which made his father unique in American—and perhaps In any other—history. For CapL John W histler and his elder son, Lieut. William Whistler, were officers In General Hull’s army when that flustered American com mander surrendered the fort at Detroit to the British at the outbreak of the W ar of 1812; and tradition says that the captain was so enraged over the capitulation that he broke'his sword over his knee rather than surrender it to the enemy; Perhaps it. was only the shame of a surrender without firing a shot that- caused him to do it. Or perhaps it might have been his realization that he was destined to go down In history as the only British officer who, haying once surrendered to a victorious American army, .•became in turn an American officer who surren dered to a victorious British army- In due time John W histler was exchanged for a British prisoner, and the choleric old captain remained in the American army only until the close of the war when he was honorably dis charged. He died September 3, 1829, but he jjved long enough to see his son, William, win some renown as an officer In the Indian and Mexican wars. ,. . , ,Old C aptJohn W histler also lived long.enough to see his youngest son, George Washington W histler, graduate from West Point at the age of nineteen and assigned’to’the artillery branch. . B ut he was not to have the satisfaction of know ing to what heights his son would rise in another profession, nor to what greater heights this son’s, son would rise in still another. - . While George Washington W histler was still a cadet at W est Point he once visited, while on leave the home of a classmate, William .Gibbs McNeilL It was a great brick mansion which had been built on a plantation near the Cape Fear river In North’Carolina before the Revolu tion by one Donald McNeill, scion of a Scotch family that had emigrated to America from the isle of Skye In 1739. There Cadet W histler made the -acquaintance of Anna Mathilda McNeill, the BustofWhIstIerin Hallof Fame; New York Universitij eldest :of a family of-five children. It would be pleasant to be able to record the fact that It was a cake'bf love at first sight for' Cadet WhlsHeit "arid Arina'McNeill. But that i3 doubtful, for soon after he was graduated from West Point he was married, but not to Anna McNeill. Shortlyafterw ardsyoungW histlerw aa left a widower arid early In the ’30s he again met the: motherly older sister of his classmate, William Gibbs’ McNeill, and married her. In 1833 Whistler resigned from the army and the next . year to George Washington Whistler and Anna Mathilda W histler was born a son to whom was given the'nam e James Abbott McNeill Whistler, thus perpetuating the name of his uncle, James Abbott, the Detroit trader at Fort Dearborn, as well as his paternal and maternal families, the McNeills and the Whistlers. After ’George Washington Whistler’s resigna tion from the army he rose to eminence as an engineer and In 1842 he went to Russia to enter the service of the czar in the construction of the railroad from St. Petersburg to Moscow, winning for himself from Czar Nicholas the decoration of the Order of St. Anne. To Russia with hirii went his wife and their two sons, one of them a slender, weak lad, affectionately known to his mother as “Jamie.” And “Jamie” he was to her - to the end of. her days, even when he became a world-famous painter. For the close tie be tween the mother and the son who was to im mortalize her on canvas began during this Rus sian experience. She nursed him during those bitter years and when they were ended In the death of Major W histler and when the widow and her two sons were reduced to poverty, she brought them out of the land of snows back to her sunny North Carolina. When “Jamie” grew up he decided to foHow the profession of his father and become a soldier. He secured an appointment to West Point In 1852, but his career there was a short one., In fact, It lasted only two years. But the loss'to the military world, if Indeed it was a loss, was the gain of the world of a r t After leaving West Point, Whistler went to Paris, resolved to become a painter, and his career in that’ role is too well known to need further comment During the years he was rising'to fame his mother was In Europe, also, not with him always, but nearby in case he should havd need of her. For somehow her little “Jamie” never seemed to grow up enough to be without his mother. In 1860 Whistler left London for three years more of study in Paris and his mother returned to America for a last visit with her relatives In Noyth Carolina. For Whistler had decided never to. return to, his native land to live. Sp'riiis mother was going to wind up what few affairs she, had’there and then return to London,, Where-they would live on the scant ’ means which the , son could provide. •While she was visiting in Cumberland and Bladen counties In North Carolina, the storm of the Civil'W ar broke and her return to Europe was postponed indefinitely. Finally early In 1864 came word from her son that he had returned to London arid established himself there; So she announced her intention of joining' him. But no m atter how much her relatives told Anna Mathilda McNeill W histler that It would be Impossible for her to go to Europe now, her only reply was the calm statement that her “Jamie” needed her and she was going. And go she did. Somehow she arranged to take passage ' on a Confederate blockade runner and on it arrived safely In England. , There, she lived to the end of her days, the Inr separable companion of the man who came to be, hailed as one of the greatest painters in the world.® by Western Newspaper Union. !

In the old days, when there was a disaster at sea, the women and chil dren were first glveri seats In the life boats (it has never , made much dif ference what happens to men). Mod erns are forgetting that gallantry. In Iowa mohs of armed farmers blocked the roads and would not let milk wagons pass on the way to town with necessary supplies for the women and children. There were plenty of food supplies In the country, town people were willing to pay for ‘ them, and farmers needed the money, but the farmers were mad and determined to starve women and children to show their indignation. We are becoming worse than the Russians. The Russian peasants have always been willing to sell food sup plies to town women and children, if paid for; the Russian town men went out Into the country and took things before the peasants rebelled. I bgtieve the American farmers should rebel, but in the name of com mon sense why don’t they jump on the politicians who have robhed them, in stead of innocent women and children?

Under the supervision of the state department of conservation, a group of 100 birds has been placed on an island so that, human, contacts may be eliminated. The final result, the department hopes, will be restora tion of the game turkey, bringing with It more sport for hunters. ' The decision to isolate the birds was reached after efforts to raise wild turkeys on a state forest pre serve failed because of the tendency of the bird to become domesticated. In other efforts of this kind, the turkeys multiplied rapidly but failed to develop a wild wildness. Efforts to put them on their own by taking them several miles from human con tact were balked when the birds took to the air and flew back to feeding stations before the preserve workmen could return.

N ew s R ev iew o f C u rre n t E v e n ts th e W o rld O v e r WilKam Green Says Labor M ust Force 30-Hour W e e k - Heavy Goods Industries Against General Wage Increase. B y E D W A R D W . P IC K A R D NOTICE Is served on the nation that the 80-hour work week will be forced on industry, by organized labor by the use of widespread strikes, if necessary. This is the dictum of W illia m Green, president of the American Federa tion of I.abor. and it causes const m otion In the admini. i ration as well as g r a v e alarm In the country generally. Green, in his May day address to workers, says the New Deal has failed to remedy the unem ployment situation, since there are still more than ten millions without jobs. The 30-hour week, he says, is the only remedy available since if all industries not yet under codes are brought under them, the resulting re-employment will not give work to these millions. Just before Green issued this state ment, President Roosevelt had appar ently declined to support the Connery bill legislating a 30-hour week for all industry; and General Johnson has re cently abandoned as not feasible the plan for forcing a 10 per cent reduc tion in working hours. William Green A RGANIZED labor is divided on the issue of compulsory arbitration. The American Federation of Labor has declared that it will not be tol erated and that it will not appoint labor spokesmen to the industrial re lations boards now being created until General Johnson gives assurance that these boards will have no power to arbitrate cases unless labor agrees. Railroad labor, on the other band, nnnounced a drive for amendment of the railway labor act which would give adjustment boards power to arbi trate controversies arising out of grievances or out of interpretations of rules or agreements. Re p r e s e n t a t i v e b e r t r a n d SNELL of. New York, minority leader Ih the house, says the period of emergency, is over, so'he ,and the rest of the Repub'llcai) -leadefe 'feel free; now to dem and^tbat-the'esaergency ""laws and bureaus be dispensed with. An amazing phase of the controversy over the New Deal thus comes to light The opponents of the adminis tration virtually concede that Presi dent Roosevelt and his advisers have won their fight against the depression and declare that normal conditions hnve been restored or are at hand. But the President and the other New Dealers deny that the battle Is over and assert that their recovery meas ures must be continued In force. At the same time they Insist that they nre not seeking to change the Amer ican system to state socialism, collec tivism, communism, fascism, and that what they are accomplishing Is “evolution, not revolution.” Thus a most peculiar situation In politics is created, and the man in the street Is waiting interestedly to see how it will be handled in the coming campaign. HARRIMAN is a rather small city In Tennessee but It has present ed the NRA with a troubling problem. The town depends largely on the Har- riman Hosiery mills, and that concern was ordered to surrender its Blue IjagIe because of charges that It hud violated section 7A of the national re covery a c t Within a few hours the whole town was in revolt. Fifty-sis merchants and other business men re moved their Blue Eagles and wired to Washington for instructions on what to .do with them. General Johnson was Informed of the situation and' sent two of his trusted lieutenants to Harriman to'Investigate and endeavor to pacify the angry merchants. BOTH the United States and Great Britain made reply to Japan’s claim to sole authority to maintain jieace In eastern Asia, and Foreign Minister Koki Hirota answered both with the assurance that Japan intend ed to observe the terms of the nine- power treaty and to maintain the open door In China. The British note was rather mild and Hirota’s reply was held satisfactory by Sir John Simon, secretary for foreign affairs. But Secretary Hull’s statem ent was sharper, being In effect that the Unit ed States did not propose to consult with Japan before extending assist ance, financial or otherwise, to China so long as such assistance was not in violation of existing treaties. It was reported in Tokyo that Hirota was satisfied with the British attitude but was greatly concerned over Mr. Hull’s note, which was a flat rejection of the Japanese claim concerning the maintenance of peace in China. Mr. Hull issued a lengthy exposition of the American government’s position in the matter. W ITH unexpected celerity the rail way executives and rail union chiefs reached an accord In the wage dispute, and the , danger of a strike was averted for another year. At the Instance of President Roosevelt but without government interference they worked out their own settlement after the federal negotiators had failed to get results and Co-ordinator Joseph B. Eastman had withdrawn as mediator. Under the arrangement decided .upon the IO per cent wage cut which has prevailed in the railroads during the last two years is to be gradually wiped out In the next twelve months. Two and a half per cent of the exist ing wage cut is to be restored July I, another 2% per cent on January I, and the remaining 5 per cent on April 1,1935. In other words, Instead of a 10 per cent cut rail workers will have only a 7% per cent cut prevailing between' July I and January I, a 5 per cent cut prevailing between January I and April I, and full pay restoration after April. I. * ,A / A/L - .A.When’.Iitformedi.bt-Vthe ,-^ettiimentr; Mr. Roosevelt said: “I am very-glad that the railroads and their employees have been able to settle their wage dispute by mutual agreement. The country should be, and will be, grateful to them for this disposition of what might have de veloped Into a troublesome contro versy. I congratulate both sides on the wisdom and restraint which they have exhibited. They have set a good example.” THAT a general wage increase at tills time will hinder rather than aid In national economic recovery is the contention of the' heavy goods in dustries, set forth in a report to Gen eral Johnson by. George H. Houston, chairman of the durable goods indus tries committee. The report reasserts faith In the company union, approves of emergency price fixing and attacks the Wagner bill as encouraging indus trial strife. I A platform of “satisfactory employ- er-employee relationship” is offered, containing these three planks: “A wage scale which compensates the worker fairly and generously with in the ability of the employer to pay. “The establishment of safe and sat isfactory working conditions. “Confidence as it is affected by fac tors other than planks one aind tw o - better homes, better educational facil ities and all that goes to- make up a healthful and happy community life.” Elsewhere the national labor board, unmentioned specifically, was never- theless, opposed. - The committee added: “It Is our firm conviction that ail subsequent procedure In connection with the handling of disputes should be kept within the jurisdiction of the NRA. “The entire recovery program con templates the co-operation of industry under codes with the NRA.” John J. McLaughlin C 1EDERALAgents believe they have " uncovered a great ring of crooks for the handling of money derived from kidnapings, hank robberies and swindles. They al ready have arrested a number of men and are hurrying to get others before th e y are put out of the way by members of the gang, as has been done before. The ring, it Is said, tins been operating in Chicago, New York, St. Louis, Kansas City and oth er cities. One' of the first men taken into custody was John J, McLaughlin, for merly a state legislator and a political boss in Chicago, suspected of being a leader in the disposal of the “hot money.” The specific charge against him Is conspiracy In the kidnaping of Edward Bremer, SL Paul banker, for whose release a ransom of $200,000 was paid. The federal agents were diligently searching for William Elmer Mead, a notorious crook, who Is thought to have directed the kidnap ers. McLaughlin confessed that he had handled some of the Bremer ransom money, and his son; was arrested with part of it in his pocket The Bremer Investigation revealed th a t a short time before the kidnap ing, ,Ajartin Wunderlich, a St. ,Paul and Jefferson City (Ho.) contractor, was swindled out of at least $50,000. according to the operatives, by Mead and his gang, by the old-fashioned horse racing act. It was said Wun derlich obtained the money from Bre mer, and this' convinced the gang that Bremer would be a promising kidnap victim. W HILE the pursuit of John Dillir- ger and his fellow outlaws was being carried on—without success at this writing—three felons -made' a sen sational escape from :the; Ohio peni tentiary at Columbus. Armed with a smuggled automatic pistol, they ter rorized 18 officials and guards, col- lected a shotgun, a gas gun and a. rifle, climbed over the walls and fled In an automobile that was waiting'out side. • j Randall Norvell, a life-term kidnap er, and another convict, got out of the Southern Illinois penitentiary at Chester by crawling,through a sewer, crossed the Mississippi in a yowboaL stole a motorboat and recrossed to Illinois, where for the time being they disappeared. iv S '" " ' IN AN extemporaneous address at an exhibition In connection with the federal subsistence homestead proj ects, Mr. Roosevelt answered various critics of his administration with the declaration that the New Deal is a program of evolution, not revolution. Praising the homestead system as one of the administration’s foremost achievements In helping depression- j stricken families to gain a fresh start In life, Mr. Roosevelt denied charges that the, program contemplated “regi mentation” of great numbers of people.

Tugwell's appointment will have to be confirmed by the senate, and it was considered certain the Republicans would take advantage of the opportu nity to make fresh attacks on him and his theories of government The President also advanced Thom as Jefferson Coolidge, a Boston bank er, from assistant secretary to under secretary of the treasury, which posi tion had been vacant since Raymond MoIey stepped out The higher per sonnel of that department Is now be ing placed on a permanent basis for the first time since Henry Morgen- thau, Jr., became Its head. VICTORY In the conference was won by the senate high tax bloc, for the house conferees accepted virtual ly all the senate increases In estate and gift taxes, the capital stock and excess profits taxes and liberal com promises over income-tax publicity and" consolidated returns. The conference agreement was com plete except for the Couzens amend ment, adding 10 per cent to all-individ ual income-tax returns next year.: The house Was to take a separate vote' on this, and it was believed the sen ate would not .Insist on it if it were rejected by the house.,,-; v : ,.f W ith the revenue bill thus disposed O f.the'seuate-finan Ce-Committee^be- gan public' hearings on theAadm M s^ tratiou’s reciprocal tariff : bill,' which - the house has passed, v « |S e A D ” for more than a ybar, the M-J Austrian • parliam ent came ‘ to life.long.enough to, approve; by a.TOte of 74 to 2, the new Constitutlon and a mass of laws, decreed by.

JTALY1S legislature doesn’t amount to much any more, but King Victor Emmanuel opened its session with a noteworthy speech praising the work of the Fascist regime. Especially, in teresting was his long statem ent Cqm; cerning the necessity of increasing Italy’s armed forces to the extent that the country’s pocketbook would stand. “We sincerely and ardently desire for Italy and Europe the longest pos sible period of peace,” he declared amid thunderous cheers, “but the best guarantee of this peace is the efficiency of our armed forces. GEN. HUGH L. SCOTT, former chief of the army and one of the last survivors of the great Indian fight ers, died at the age of eighty years in W alter Held hospital, Washington. Through all his last years, Scott con tinued vigorously his researches and writings on the Indian sign languages which he had mastered during his years on the plains. In 1930 he was commissioned by the library,’of con gress to compile a record' for all time of . this curious mode of expression^ PASSAGE through, the Panama canal r of the Amarican fleet of U l vessels, on the way from the Pacific to the At lantic, was carried out. successfully, but not In the hoped-for 24 hours. The time consumed was almost double that, which led the Tokyo press to declare the movement was a “failure.” The delay was caused by a heavy rain. GUBA asked for the extradition of Gerardo Machado, deposed presi dent of the island republic,, so a gen eral police alarm was sent out from Washington for his arrest United States murshals went first to the apartm ent he had b e e u occupying In New York, and were' told by his secretary,.-.

All commercial traffic was barred, soldiers guarded the locks, standing as solemn as penguins on either side. It was beautifully done, credit to all concerned. But—did , anybody In Washington ask himself wbat would have hap pened if 25 or 30 enemy bombing planes had appeared, floating over the- canal, while our valuable warships were passing through? W hat would have happened to those ships, to the canal, to the locks, to the comical little soldiers, with their gnns and bayonets, standing along the edge of the water? In California, a dog, technically and effectually killed In the laboratory of Doctor Robert Cornish ten days ago, shows signs of life, blinking its eyes In the Ught and twitching muscles when a fly lights on its nose. This experiment may Decome im portant to human beings. Thousands die because of some little stoppage, that might have been prevented or corrected. Just as an automobile stops sometimes because of an obstruction In the pipe feeding gas to the car buretor. Under such conditions, the men have been taken to the graveyard. Doctor Cornish may find a way to overcome snch temporary, unnecessary “deaths." This applies especially to the human heart, that supplies life while it pumps, and brings death when it stops. In millions of cases, undoubtedly, a temporary stoppage might have been overcame and life indefinitely pro longed. Mr. Wallace, secretary of agricul ture, tells Nebraska farm ers plans are necessary to "prevent the suicide of society.” It is as well to have public officials view conditions solemnly, but they are not quite as bad as that. This country has more of everything than it needs, more than enough for everybody.. ..

If a burglar succeeded In getting half-way through the metal door, he would release a cloud of deadly gas In which he would . die ih horrible agony. The American College of Physicians heard Doctor Meakins of Montreal promise that within 50 years any man willing to “use his intelligence and will power” may live 100 years. Fifty years ago the average human being was through with life at forty. To day’s average is beyond sixty. Doctor Meakins’ promise of "a century of vital, energetic life for every member of the human, race" is encouraging. The wise would want to be guaranteed to the “vital, energetic” p art Nothing sadder than to live merely for the sake of living. "Four flee from Indiana prison.

The system of Justice that catches criminals and lets them go, can’t build a jail to hold them, Is now generally accepted as a farce.

N ational Topics Interpreted b y WilHam Bruckart Washington.—The senate has start ed another investigation.. It- has de termined to go on a I n q m r y fishing' e x p e d itio n c t ^ t i into the several In-M a y S h o c k dngtrfea ^ at mano. facture tilings that are used in mak ing war. There will be a long-drawn- out inquiry; there will be seizure of papers and there will be smearing, some justified and some unjustified, of leaders In the shipbuilding, muni tions and aircraft industries. It is liable to be a nasty thing before it is concluded and a report made to the senate. There was no noise about passage of the resolution which was proposed by Senators Nye'of North Dakota and Vandenberg of Michigan. The resolu tion creates a special committee which already has begun work. Its passage actually was noted In the newspapers that I saw with no more display than a couple of paragraphs. But the proposition ought to be among those to which attention is closely directed. Unless the bulk of the observers is •wrong, the investigation that the Nye- Vandenberg resolution started is go ing to have a far-reaching effect both In domestic affairs of the United States and In the international field. One of the reasons why it is so im portant to give thought to the inves tigation is the particular time at which It arrives among the window displays of government activities. It hardly need be stated here that inter national relations are strained -In many parte of the world. There is nothing on the horizon to indicate that they will improve. Strained relations, If they continue, lead Inevitably to war, and I reported to yon several m onths ago that some nations are headed in that direction if the infor mation our government has is cor rect.* It Is naturally to be expected then that overt acts on the part of some of the disturbed powers are go ing to follow, and the disclosures which the Nye-Vandenberg committee are prepared to make will help the international situation not one b it Indeed, there is no reason to believe otherwise than th at the Impending disclosures-will' complicate the situa tion and create more hatred- and:sus picion. In- other words, as I see i t the .disclosures are more than likely to ,tiaSten .that which seems inevitable, namely, w ar In several; p arts of the world, }'■'■> V V :./ Senator Pope of Idaho, temporary chairman of the /committee.- told me that the country is likely, to be shocked 'tWhenMt learns the ramifica tions. of the situation,” referring to the operations of the shipbuilding, aircraft and munitions companies. While he did not say so, I drew the Inference from his remarks that he believes there has been collusion of some kind or other among some of those Industrial leaders in order to engender ill will among nations al ready suspicious of each other. “We are going to find out how many American shells are going to be used to kill American soldiers later,” said Senator Pope. fo r F is h in g . -...»...i And so we are off on another crash ing, smashing, bull-in-the-china closet - type of inquiry. All. B a d T im e of us remember the famous Investigation of shipbuilding ac tivities at the Geneva arm ament con ference. The committee smeared one William Shearer when Shearer was serving as agent for several of the shipbuilding concerns. None was sure when that investigation started where It would lead. The same can be said of the current inquiry. To my way of thinking, however, the inquiry Is much more im portant In the effect It will have upon Inter national relations than In the smear ing of men and corporations. Frankly, the opinion I have formed after many conversations with men and women of sound Judgment is that this is an exceedingly bad time for such a'fish ing expedition. Any disclosure of relations between a munitions com pany and a foreign nation are going 'to be seized upon by that nation's neighbors as evidence and there will be blood In the eye In a hurry. I hope m y observations and conclu sions will, not he taken as condoning any crookedness. My point; Is .that business relations between a. private corporation and its customer should be allowed some degree of secrecy so. long as they Are not contrary to pub lic good. Governments are going to buy munitions'; they are going to buy aircraft; and th'ey Are going1 to have ships built. ..The*, question: naturally follows, then, whether it is proper or Improper for an American. plAUt to sell' SoiAething it makes to' a foreign nation even If it-know s they are to - be used In fighting., I can see where those 'commodities ought not’ tbbe sold for Use Against -America, but puf gov ernment buys such' supplies constant ly and buys tiiem from American- mak ers. If otiier governments can buy them here^ I fail to see Why they 'should not be allowed to doi so unless such .sales bar's the afterm ath of dragging the United States into war.

(From Greensboro News) Mr. Farley, w certain aspects of tb- j.o.tal service which he has deemed in need of ie- pair or removal, has had, it has been subsequently revealed in vir tually everv instance, quite un happy experiences. Thepostm aster general’s peremp tory cancellation of air—mail con tracts and delegation of a whittled assiginent to the army air c o r p s without going into any argument as to justification, 01 lack of it, of this action, had a most unfprtunate denouncement, attributable perhaps m no small extent,. to inability of even such a forseer as Genial .Jim to foresee a mischief-making weath er works on a nationwide scale. W hen army planes began crashing, political opponents hurled ‘legaliz ed murder” and the Ltndbergh halo wa§ matched against F. D,. R. enchantment, there was a speedy scurrying to cover; the administra tion lost no time in backing out of the embroilment. Even while that argument raged, however, the postmaster general promulgated another order which affected the public much more di rectly and intimelv not only m ,its bisic fairness to the group of gov ernment employes with whom the selfsame public is m ' closest con tact. Postal operations, even while millions of dollars were being spent to provide employment and thous ands of persons were being added to the federal nay roll in emergency capacities, had to come within operating income; hence payless furloughs, virtual dismssal of-sub- stitutes, salary reductions-and great ly impaired service, including short er window h o u rs' and dismtnished - mail deliveries, were ordered almost overnight.

The Baskervill bureau report.* that employes in the state depatt ment of revenue are “ sitting or needles and pins” as a result of thr reorganization which progresses ■ilo.uly but has gone far enough tc create serious'concern among pre sent employes. Within two three weeks “some half dozen clerks ant stenographers have been droppec from the department’s pav roll" i' is stated and "indications are tha> 10 or 15 more are slated to go even tually, as well as some eight or ic higher-ups who have been with tht department for years.” The state ment continues: So far neither Noble [thedepart- ment reorganizer] nor Commission er of revenue A. T. Maxwell will reveal any of their p'.ans for the future. But the prevailing belief here is Noble wants to make the reorganization considerably more radical and rapid than Maxwel wants it to be. Many of the stenegrapbers were tnrown into consternation last week when most of them were taken oil! of private offices- and put into one large room, where thev will be a- vailable for any one of several diff erent division heads whenever they want the service of a stenographer. This plan has been followed in pri vate business for a good many years. But until recently the state workers in semi-official jobs insisted on hav ing private stenographers whenever possible. This would mean that whenever the- official was out of town or doing some other work these private stenographers would have nothing to do. Under the new system whenever in one depart ment or division, she will be avail able for call in another division^ If the persons who are being dropped are not to be replaced, or thete is a net saving in the number of employes, as would appear with the new arrangement as to stenog raphers, that would be evidence that the pay roll has been bearing an unnecessary load. This is fre qucntly charged as to state depart ments and institutions generally and as often it is vehemently de nied, although it is not impossible of belief when it it remembered that political influence often com pels the creating of places to meet, demands for them, not theiieeds.ol the work. One report going about is that Governor Ehringhaus, who pro moted the reorganization and set Dr. Noble to that job, has had dif ficulty in getting along with Mr; Maxwell, who does not approve some of the changes, especially the displacing of old employes. It has been suggested that the revenue commissioner might resign because of the disagreement. Whichreport may or may not be true, in whole or in part.—Greansboro News. !

P/s Hendersonville —Sunday baseball aud movies, KamblinK and advertise ments depicting women smoking were condemned by the general synod of the Associate Reformed. Rresbyterian church. Themeeting, in session at Bon darken, the church’s assembly grounds near here, as adjourned Sunday night. The synod’s action with respect to Sunday movies and sports taken in adoption of the report of the- com mittee on reform.

Teachers Must Wait. IT h e school teachers will have to wait a month or more for tbeir last month’s pay and to save troubli they might as well possess theii souls in patience, -Through a mis calculation the State school com mission found itself short of fund.5 to the amount of about $300 000 t; cimplete the pay roll, as has been explained. Through the persisted efforts of Superintendent Allen anr Senator Bailey, North Carolina was 1 few days ago, allotted $500 000 01 federal funds to aid in the payment of its teachers. But if the federal governmen1 promises one money he need not ex pact to have it iu hand next day or next week, or even next month. There are a number of prescribed acts that must be completed before one gets money from Uncle Sam, unless he is regulaily on his pav roll. Raleigh advises that the federal money can be used only for the payment of teachers who have no other income. The money al lotted for this teacher payment is from relief funds and relief funds must be used for relief purposes Teachers who have for their living only the pittance the State pays them will he paid out of that fund, which will be accounted relief which it is. Theothers will get their pa\ from fie S'ate. But before either group can be paid they must be separated, which will take consider able time in detail work. The teachers that will be paid from federal funds will be paid first. Until the'number is determined and which ones, the State can’t pay. It must wait until the separation is complete and allotment made. News from Raleigh is that payment may sot be reached until June. The teachers won’t like it but the waiting is necessary. —Statesville Daily. Sales Tax Did Not Save The Schools. Union Republican. Governor Eliringhaus and others who are advocating the retention of the sales tax this year is what saved the schools of the state are badlv off according to the Raleigh News and Observer which elucidated on this live question as follows: ' “ The statement has been made so often that the sales tax has saved education in North Carolina that a great many people have accepted the tie up between education and the sales tax which friends of the sales tax have attempted to make Actually the sales tax has done less than either income taxes or fran chise taxes in the salvation ot the schools '' - “ Education, like every other gen eral State expense, secures its mon ey from the general fund of the State. Through March of this year the sales tax had contributed to that fund $4 245,435 In the same period the income tax had contri- buted$5,207,448 and franchise.tax es had contributed $6 2 2 6 ,609. 1 Education in North Carolina is dependent upon an adequate tax base, but neither in fact or theory is-education in North Carolina de pendent upon any permanent policy of sales taxation no matterh ow dear such a poiky may be to those who would remove the burden of tax ation from wealth to mere sub sistence.” Death’s Busy Season. N.As- the summer approches, with it? increased tourist and other auto mobile traffic, death prepares ti reap its richest harvest. From the homes of the United States must come about 30,000 to die and a million others to be injured some crippled for life, during the 5 tar; if former records.are to be equaled This senseless slaughter goes or. in spite ot all the warnings given -ous held daily before our eyes. The pitiful part of this contin- ious tragedy is that most of these casualties are entirely unnecessary ind might be prevented by the ex- rci'e of ordinary common s nse. They are due eithtr to an insare lesire for speed or an utter disre gard for the most eleinetary rules of safety. Many of the victims are helpless passengers, whose lives are at the criminally reckless or incompetent driyer. Some accidents are appar ently unavoidable, of course, but iu the vast majority of cases they 'are the result of pure carelessness on the part of motorists of pedestrains And even the most careful driver is often helpless when he eucoun- ters a fool on stieet or highway. It is no wonder that the dear peo ple think of bandits with respect in comparison with those who loot the public. . Hay, Mr. Roosevelt!

Washington. — Opponents and supporters of the 18th Amendment agreed in the Senate today that un less the flow of bootleg liquor is checked the United States will re turn to prohibition. Senator William E. Borah (R), Idaho, a dry leader, charged that “ bootleggers are dictating our laws regarding liquor taxes ” Senator David I. Walsh (D) 1 Massachusetts, long time advocate of repepeal, said “ Christian and.re ligious people will not tolerate ex isting conditions.” As one who urged repeal,” Walsh said, “ I have been disap pointed.” Borah said he had asked Joseph C. Choate, director of the federal alcohol control administration, to report on “ what liquor taxes and liquor profits really are.” The White House indicated to day that President Roosevelt does not look for legislation this session of Congress to reduce liquor taxes On May 10 Secretary of Trea sury Henry Morgenthau will send about 4.000 men — equal to the forces in prohibition days—to en force repeal liquor laws. They will include 1,850 men to combal illegal manufacture of-whisky and 1,000 to supervise legal distilleries. Arthur J. Mellott, new bead of this force, described hitnself today “ a personal dry although not a fa- nic.” He saidhisbudget for th.e fiscal year would be about $7,000,- 000. '" Enforcement districts have been set up'with headquarters at Bosto.n, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore Washington, New Orleans, Louis ville. Chicago, St. Paul, St. Louis, Denver, Sau Francisco and Seattle. Borah read newspaper accounts of drinking by. children and of em ployment of girls to dance in beer halls and night clubs “ For mvself,” he said, “ I would be in favor of increasing taxes rather than decreasing them. I think prices should be pretty high when liquor affects the manhooj and-womanhood of-our country in this manner. ’ __ “ The country is flooded with bad, illicit liquor. It appears now that with respect to halting distribution of illegal liquor. The trouble is not the taxes, but with ,the profits being made by these liquor dealers. The remedy lies iu the bands of Mr, Chqatei." ■ Governor Ehringhaus vs. Candidate Ehringhaus As we view it. Governor Ehring haus made a spendid address to th< annual convention of the North Ca rolina Medical Society, with one ex ception. The United Press says he ^defenr1- ed” the sales tax. The Associated Press says he “praised the sales tax.” In the light of his public utter ances on this issue when he was t candidate, it seems impossible th'ai G ivernor Khringhaus could now- hi ’defending,” much less “praising” the general sales tax in force in th;g Common wealth. Two years ago, when he was ask ing the people to suppors him frr the governorship, Mr. Ehringhaus aid: “I-have always opposed, and the Democratic party from the aays of Jefferson to Woodrow Wilson has opposed, the principles of sales tax ation. except as emergency measur es, and when all other reasonab'e sources of revenue .have been ex hausted. This is my view, in this campaign. ‘As between the general sales tax comes as a source of revenue for the National Government, and this form of taxation has just been de feated in Washington. -■ “A general sales tax levied by a single state is utterly destructive in its local effect, and will drive mil lions of dollars in business from the merchants of any state wh|re it operates. The special sales tax on special articles, or so called luxury tax, violates the fundamentals of taxation, namely, ability to pay and falls heaviest upon the wage-earnet and the poorest class of-our people ” In the same campaign Mr. Ehring- haus was asked a number of Ques tions by a group of responsible citi zens in this State. These questions were intended to elicit from his views on certain vital issues, in order that our people might know how’ to vote intelligently in the primary, where three candidates were seeking the gubernatorial nomination. One of these questions was as follow?: /“ If your program should require substantial additional taxes, are you in favor of levying any form of sale tax?” In answer to ‘this question Mr. Eiringhaus said: “ I am opposed to the sales tax in any form.” We quote here also another one of these questions: “ If it should appear that the en actment of some form of sales tax is jn inevitable,' which form of tax would you be most willing to accept, (a) the luxury sales tax? or (b) tjje general sales tax?” In reply to this question, Mr. Eh ri Qghaus gave the following answer: “I am unwilling to accept either except as a last resort and a tempor ary expedient to preserve the State’f credit. If the adoption of either should become necessary. I would be willing to accept that one which, in the opinion of the Legislature would raise the necessary ' revenue with the least burden upon the lives and activities of our people. ■WOULD SEEK ITSr REPEAL, as well as the repeal of the present general sales tax of one-tenth of one per cent, AT THE EARLIEST PRACTICABLE MOMENT.” In the light of these statements only two short years ago, it is diffi cuit to understand how Governor Ehringhaus can come-around now to the point where he is willing “de- "fend” and “ praise” the present gen eral sales tax in force in North Ca rolina. Instead of “defending” and “ praising” such a form of taxation, it seems to us that the general sales tax is an obnoxious emergency mea sure and that he is doing his best to make it possibl^'for the next Legis lature to repeal it. That is what the present Democratic governor of New York did.—Winston Journal. Hoisted On Their.Own Petard. For years the two factions »f the Democratic party - in Raleigh have voted negroes in droves to help them elsct their candidates for the muni- iHpal offices. In one ward in the last Democratic primary it was charged that more than 300 negroes register- jd and voted. And itissaid that many negroes vho were registered in Wake and other sections of the state voted for SVankIin D Roosevelt in the last' ores'dental election. Roosevelt certainly profited by the rIegro votes in the northern and western states where there is no ’olor line and as a partial reward for heir support. Roosevelt some time -igo appointed a negro lawyer named Vann, from Pittsburgh asian as sistant attorney general. And didn’t Al Smith while Gover- 'ior of-New York name Frederick Q. Morton, negro, as one of the civil service commissioners of New York City, ■ with white women working under him? Encouraged by the white . Dem ocrats of Wake to take part in the _ orimaries and elections Henry C. High, a Raleigh negro waiter, has filed his name as a candidate for Justice of the Peace in the June pri- Tiary and some of the Raleigh Demo- ratic machine appear to be horri fied They have even' appealed to he attorney general to make a rul ing designating High’s color on the ticket but that office says nay- and High’s name will go on the official balot under the Democratic emblem. —Union Republican. Superintendent Of Schools By Election. Over here in Iredell oountv super- ' intendent of education next fall, ane whatever any other party may do a- bout it, the Democrats are going to select their candidate in their pri mary. It i3 suspended that the school M perintendency is, per se, as visible an offie as there in the county. The popular method of selecting a su perintendent does not operate to in troduce politics in general or partv oolitics, into education in Iredell, for politics has already had a lodg m ent there for quite a seaaor. And the same might be said of other counties. A school superintendent ought to be of sound education since educa- ijn -is his trade. His education ought to include a good deal of cul tural attainment, since culture is^ one of the principal ends of educa tion, if indeed it is not the principal ■and He ought to have personality and the niceties,- as well ad the pro fundities, of character. But any or all these shall profit him little a3 re spects Iiis office, for if by any chance tie should get it, he will not hold it long unless be has attained to con siderably more than the ABC of practical politics. Not m Iredell eountv; not in any of several others that might be mentioned. The office of county superintend ent has its elements of visibility; it lacks visibility only, indeed, if there .ire a number of other offices to be filled by the electorate that are of a> bout the same inherent prominence. When the school headship is con sidered as a professional incumbency however, its filling by the voters cannot in anywise be in conformity with the principles of simplification of government.. .The average voter has no tests whereby he' determine professional efficiency, and would not have the time or inclination to apply these tests if he had them.— Greensboro News.

E le c tric R e f r ig e r a tio n Is N o t E x p e n s iv e — T HE IDEA once prevailed that electric refrigeration was an ex pensive luxury. This is contrary to the facts. Electric refrigeration provides the cheapest form of ade quate refrigeration available today. It is not only incomparably superior to ordinary refrigeration but it is actual ly cheaper—much cheaper. Electric refrigeration, not only enables you to have, with a minimum of trouble and expense, delicious salads and desserts, and other dishes, but it relieves' the housewife of a vast amount of drudgery, discomfort and inconvenience. It is the best and cheapest health insurance you can have. AU- ,in all an electric refrigerator is a necessity in the modern home from the standpoint of health, convenience and economy—and the Kelvinator is the old est and best in the field of electric re frigeration.

Yes—You’ll Pay. I KELLEY L. COPE If the rich are made to pay, the rich will find a way to pass the burden on down the line, so that in the end every penny of these burdensome taxes will be paid by the average man. He may not rea lize that he is paying it. because it ■won’t reach him in the form of a direct tax. But be will pay it just the same, just as he has always paid it, aud alwas will. He’ll pay at in increased rent, in a surcharge on eyerything-he e^ts or drinks or wears or uses. He’ll pay it in re duced wages. He’ll feel it for many a decade to come. - Thatold lallacy of taxing the rich to help the poor was never more dangerous to the public wel fare it is now. We, as a people, have watched cities and states and the federal government appropriate and spend billions—and we’ve sat Iby and said nothing, think that mone of it would come out of oui pockets and that some of it might go in We’ve been conscious of waste, of extravagance, of graft, of duplication of eflort. We have thought that wealthy individuals or big corporations were paying the necessary taxes. Un.orfortunately. there aren’t wealthy individuals or big corpor ations to pay the cost of govern ment. They can’t meet even a small percentage of it. Over tax ing individual wealth simply drives it into tax-free bonds and takes it out of productive enterprises where it would provide jobs, payrolls, aud purchasing power. And when we overtax business, we simply in crease the cost of everything we use, Businesshasnom agicm eans of creating money.

This confession, written in a baautiful hand by. the m urderer himself, said in part: , . - “ I think of General Garfield’s condition as a removal, and not as an ’"assassination. .M y idea, simply stated, was to remove as easily- as possible Mr. Jam es A.

Calls For Prodding. Refereflce bas been made from time to time to the State revenue department, prompted by Govern nor Ehrin gliaus. Not all the plans have been revealed but so far rs disclosed the purpose seems to be to reduce the force with the idea of getting-more work for less It is evident also, that Governor Eh- ringhaus feels that the field force isn’t bringing the ■ money that is due In a talk to the field men a few days ago the governor told them the time has cotue-for “ pYod diug.” “ The.State of North Ca rolina can’t go unless we use a policy of prodding to bring in the necessary revenues,” said the'gov ernor. The lamentations of inability to pay taxes during the depressed pe riod have exceeded the cause. In other words, many people who could pay have taken advantage of the situation and the depression find politics have been operated to. ’to. reduce collections that might have been made if collectors had been "hard'boiled.” Evidently the governor exdects, State collect firs to get that! way.

Several editiorials have been ap pearing recently in the press of the state, speculating as to what the next Legislature will do with respect to new liquor jaws. This speculation, it seems to us. is of a rather idle nature So far as the liquor situation in North Caro lina is concerned there isn’t the slightest doubt as to the attitude' of the people. They spoke in such con vincing fashion last November that everybody ought to be able to grasp their meaning. - True, there were m any' thousands who did. not vote.. But.that, accord ing to our way of thinking, doesn’t make any difference. We - belieye- that if tbe entire voting strength of North Carolina had gone to the polls trie' proportionate vote in opposition to repeal would have been practically theuam e as it turned out to be. ; Personally, we favored, repeal.

She paused in the hallway and looked about her. Over their drawings or tdue-prints or estimates leaned kha- kiclad, putteed engineers. One of them came quickly forward. "Something I can do for you?” “May I see Mr. Stark?” This way," Mary ran the gamut of curious eyes through two rooms toward a smaller one at the rear. She didn’t mind the curiosity.

She hadn’t—oh, she hadn’t expected this! Hadn’t thought he really would do— th is! Her eyes roamed the room des-' perately. She wasn’t used to cutting inconsldqration I She was used— A little smile came to her lips. Why, she could make this towering man right-about-face In a second! Al! she needed to do was to tell him that she was the daughter of his old friend, David’ Brown. That annihilated all defenses, always. She opened her liPs—— And closed them, suddenly, fearfully. Just in tim e'she remem bered that she no longer was using that sesame. The fire came back to her eyes. “You wouldn’t do that, Mr. Stark! You couldn’t be so unfair as to dis miss me without notice? I—have to have a job! I need the money. You can—give me a trial. Why condemn me without a hearing? Maybe I really do know my stuff.” “You mnst know, too, that this,” sternly, “is no place for a girl.” ‘T ve worked with male engineers all through school.” “School! Mere child’s play. This Is a job.” He laughed. “I suppose you figure on some soft b erth . In the office. Well, my pink ears have to be ready to go Into the field whenever they’re sent.” "My specialty,” said Mary quietly, “is design. But I don’t mind going Into the field. I can do anything a man can do. I’m big. Strong. My health is perfect.” He motioned her to desist. “That Is beside the point, Miss Brown. You don’t understand. It’s against my precedent to have a girl on the job. My word! The complications a girl could introduce! We have plenty of grief without the upsetting influence of the fair sex. “The promoter of this estate,” he now thought to argue, “won’t so much as let an engineer's wife live on the job, until the travail chaos is over. W hat do you think he’d say to you?” “Tell him,” placidly, “that I’m here, not in the capacity of an engineer’s wife, but of an engineer.” “Suppose,” with a trium phant nar rowing of his eyes at her, “you tell him th a t He's coming down the path now.” . ’ An outside door opened. Mary turned toward it; gasped. Denis Craig had halted In surprise upon the threshold. C H A P T E R IV “I Cap Do Anything a MaplCan Doln ; Craig came forward as he credited what his eyes told him, hand out stretched, his face flooded with his charming smile. Mary Brown’s head was in a w hirl Denis Craig—the promotor of this project? . Denis Craig—who (Hank Johnson’s expression rang in her ears) who was raking In the dough from suckers? • • • “How interesting,” she managed, “to discover that this is your real estate game!” Craig threw back his head and 'laughed, ignoring the little edge of sarcasm on her voice. iTiflt have told you all about It if you would have let me, you know. But . what,” eagerly, “do you think of the project? "Isn’t it all its name claims for It?” “I’ve seen only a -UttIe corner of It—" “But you will see more of It?” “I hope so. Mr. Stark and I were just discussing that possibility.” Silently John Stark handed young Cralg the letter. Craig glanced it through quickly, noticed the non-com mittal initial ip the heading, and looked up at Mary. “M. Brown.” He whistled; grinned. “So—you’re an engineer. A' girl engineer who, I take it, concealed her sex In order to land her job. A stowaway route of sorts to her destination.” “Mr. Stark,” Mary said calmly, “had • just suggested th a t! ask you what yoii thought of a girl on the job. I under stand that women are not allowed In your paradise.” ' “I'll welcome them with open arms,” be assured her, ‘Mn due course. For the’present. I’ve had to rule them out. You’U understand/ We can’t be both ered with settlers while- the project Is nothing but virgin wilderness. We couldn’t take care of them decently. I’ve even vasked the engineers not to bring their wives y e t We men can get along roughing It In camps. “But—so far as hiring a girl as one of the engineers, there’s ho reason why Mr. Stark should Consult me. He’s ruler of his own dom ain" Mary’s eyes went from one to the other of them. “Passing the buck,” she told herself uncomfortably. The soldierly John Stark walked to the’end of-the room, then whirled sud denly to' demand: "Young lady, you told me you needed the money I How true Ie that?

Premwea by National Geogrraphlc Society.Washington, D. C.—WNU Service. M ODERN engineers have thrust Virginia Dare trail down the islands off the North Carolina coast and built the Wright Memorial bridge across Currituck sound, bringing the islands into touch with the modern world, yet the visitor still finds in Roanoke island the speech and customs common In the days of Sir W alter Raleigh whose fol lowers established there the first Eng lish settlement in America. From the skipper of the small mail boat that plies between the islands one may supplement his limited knowledge of this region supplied by obsolete descriptions and by copies of the original letters, and maps left by Sir W alter Raleigh’s adventurers, He learns that Roanoke island - perfectly exemplifies the adage that byways of isolation pocket the choicest realities of Ilfa Here is a ' genuine, Inbred i dignity, expressive of a mild-mannered, hospitable folk. The islanders are proud of their physique, speech, man ners, and customs—historic survivals of old English Devon. The ubiquitous automobile did not reach Roanoke island until less than a decade ago. For land transporta tion there were up to that time Only two-wheeled carts and sand ponies and occasional oxcarts. Even the little sand ponies’ tradition went back to castaway vessels, to the Portuguese and to Sir W alter Raleigh’s voyagers; On Raleigh’s attem pts a t ' coloniza tion hinged momentous results In the New world. The “Lost Colonies,” tho.ugh, they; began and- ended;Slr-W aiy ter’s Venture's upon the Ndfth Carolfna Sea islands,’ were the first English- speaking settlements in America. Discovered In 1584. In 1584 the adventurer obtained a patent from - Queen Elizabeth, whose favors :h!s- genius readily? commanded, and dispatched to the New world the first of his expeditions. The little band, under Amadas and "Barlowe, sailed through an inlet on July 4,1584, to discover Roanoke Island—a spot so favored In climate and setting and so rich In fruits, game, and bird life that it seemed to them a veritable paradise. Back to England they sailed to de scribe Jt, taking with them two friend ly Indian chiefs; and also tobacco, sassafras, maize, pumpkin's, squash, grapes, and other fruits. Their story created excitement, and In the follow ing year Ralelgb .sent out Sir Richard Grenville with a second colony, num bering IOS souls, determined to make a permanent home on Roanoke Island and establish plantations. They lainded on August 17, 1585. and built a log fortification, to which they gave the name “The New Fort in Virginia," also spoken of as “Fort Raleigh.” However, they could not live at peace with the Indians, and the entire colony, sailed back with Sir Francis Drake in 1586, just two weeks before the arrival of reinforcements. Finding -the fort deserted, the new group also returned to England, but left 15 men on'the island. A third expedition, sent ,out by Raleigh In 1587, found the fort de molished and no trace of the 15 men except the bones of one slain by the savages. The gruesome discovery was a shock to the homeseekers, and they willingly followed the advice of their leader, John White, to forestall future hostility by making friends of the In dians. The plan succeeded admirably. Manteo,' one of the friendly chiefs, was even baptized and 'given a title'of" no bility as Lord o f Roanoke—the first English peerage In America. Vlrglniis 'Dare's Birth. On August 18, 1587, five days after - the baptism Of the Indian, was born John White's granddaughter, -Virginia Dare, the first English native of America. S ie was^ baptized on the following Sunday. 'Thus was Eliza- beUian CiTiliSititioii anchored here by a :baby, a mother, and the American family. ' -W - ■ - I -‘ -Around IIttle-1VirgIhia Dare re mained more than a hundred men, women and cblllren. They were left alone for three years. Then John White, who had gone back to England after establishing the colony, returned —to flnd that they had disappeared. T he only promising -clue White fohnd was the sign “CRO” blazed on a tree. Since these letters were part of h code agreed upon by the colonists three years before, the rescue party hoped that their friends had gone to Croatan, home of the friendly Manteo, who had promised sanctuary In emer- gency; but the -captain, pleading bad weather and lack of supplies, forced the party to sail away before the clue could be investigated. What had been the colonists’ fate? The blazed sign was all that was ever found of the Lost Colonies ex cept hasty marks of departure, burned chests, rusty iron implements, house hold effects, and books. Even In that wilderness colonists of Shakespeare's day could not exist without books. Whatever the fate of the colonists, either they or their early successors left their Elizabethan English dialect, manners, customs, and features in this American byway. As the little mail boat bobs along toward Roanoke island, the traveler’s thoughts turn from the story of Vir- Blnla Dare and the first colonists to another historic drahia of the Banka In 1812, just across the channel from Roanpke Island, on the ocean sand spits of. Nags Head, the pilot boat Pa triot, carrying Theodosia Burr Alston, daughter of Aaron B urr and wife of Governor Alston of South Carolina, ended Its last voyage. After the tragic collapse of her father's career and the loss of her little son. the only hope . of the Burr family, Mrs. Alston was in the depths of despair. She set sail • from Georgetown, S- C,. to Join her lonely father, and disappeared for ev e r! Life on the Island. A .bit of life on Roanoke, is revealed I by a recent vlsifor, a woman doctor. An old midwife and nurse, the wid- ■ ow of a life service man, was to care jfor . her !temporarily In her ancient (cottage by Bie sound, where she lived "alone.' Her name was "M is’ ” Bashb-J !the “Mis’ ” sin island' designation for mistress, and “Bashi,” she said, “a - Bible name after Bathsheba, the wife ■of Uriah; but they call me BashL” Surnames on the island do not de mote the individual, for the families •,fir-a* hamlet are usually all members of one or two clans. 1T-Il wipe the dustles off you, your cornbread is waitin’, and your cake ,all dressed up In coconut." Mis* Bashi stirred about the spa cious old brick fireplace, with its crane and flredogs, and brought from the Coals an old four-legged skillet In which she had baked a delicious corn bread. Lying on the hearth was a mammoth bushy-tailed, long-haired cat, ,one of the numerous beautiful de scendants of an island Maltese and a brown, bushy-tailed Norwegian cat that had been the sole survivor of a wreck. - In a worn slab-wood rocker In which the old woman had rocked her six children the doctor rested after din ner and listened to her tale of a re markable life history. What she learned entitles Mis’ Bashl to a place in the annals of medjcal history. ^T he old nurse belonged to the Island’s remnant. Her blood, her sterling character, and her beautiful, broad dialect were heritages of the old Devonshire castaway. She was comely and agile, her visage one of strength and thought. Of only five weeks “schoolin’,” she had never learned to, read, but had been taught to work Indoors and out and to spin. At sixteen “out” (old) she,m arried and at twenty-one “out,” in-a far life service, station hamlet, she undertook her -first obstetrical case. “Doctor, I knew nothtn' of If; but Mehale.v read me a doctor book, and the moon was- cornin’ to full, so the baby would be ,thrifty. One born In the dark of the moon Is not” Mis’ Bashi’s Nursing. On her little plantation, In pine qroods by the sound, though wiuowed later, she cared for 'a psychiatric mother, raised her own brood and her ' mother’s and her brother’s children, cared for cows, pigs, and gardens, -| Then for 45 years she ministered to all the sick of the region, a local doc tor coming only at rare Intervals. Her sand pony NapoleoD carried Iier In a two-wheeJed cart through iyoods and .sand and. water, In gale, or, sunshine, to her patients; Often afoot she swung with her Viking stride down beaches or through the woods. . She was smart, exact/and knowing, though she signed by mark, and she was known as a “couthy” (capable) wom ans Her dignity of bearing and cour tesy were exquisite. Thus she-fell into the role that nature cast for her. Monthsi later the doctor realized how the personality of this Island woman, - linked - with - a touch of science, prevented morbid results from household conditions. - She estab lished her own art of medicine and it worked. Old Peiping City of Charms A n c ie n t C a p ita l H a s B e e n C e n te r o f C h in e s e I a f e f o r JF o rty C e n tu r ie s ; S p o k e n O f b y M a rc o P o lo , W h e n H e W a s K u h l a i K h a n ’s A d v is o r . Peiping, for long the focus of news Interest In the F ar Eas^, has had a - marked Increase In population for more than a year, owing to an influx of refugees. Already the 1,500,000 mark has been passed, as shown by a recent census, and still merchants, countrymen, dispossessed officials, and other social groups stream to. the city’s friendly walls. A bulletin : from the Washington headquarters - of the National Geographic society describes the ancient capital of China. “To Peiping, alias ancient C hl Yu ' Chou, Yenching, Chung Tu, Khan- , bajigh, and Peking, influxes of pop ulation are not new,” -says the bul letin. “During many times in its long span of forty centuries people have come and gone, but the city un der one name or another has lived on. No other city in China is so rich in historical associations. Few cities of the world, In fact, hold more interest for the visitor than does Peiping. “To this city journeyed Mareo Po lo when he met’ and became advisor to the mighty Kubiai Khan. In the heart of Peiping still stands the old drum tower that boomed forth the . watches of night when Messer Maxco lived in the courts of the great T atar ruler. Fly over the ancient capital today and you can see the definite outline of a portion of the crumbled ram parts that enclosed Khanbaligh, as the city was then called. They lie to the north of the present walls. "The wide streets, that form such a contrast to the narrow twisting alleys of most old Chinese cities, also reflect the influence of the Tatars. Today many, of these streets are be ing paved with asphalt to do aWay at last with the deep dust or mud and the persistent ruts that have been cut during the passing centuries by countless camel caravans and two wheeled ‘Peking’ carts. “Peiping Is really a city beside a city and cities within a city, each separated from the other by ,massive walls. Within the great fortified Tatar, city is th e old Imperial city. Pinkish-red walis,’ yellow tiled on top, Jn turn set apart the iPurple Forbidden City’ in the heart of the moated imperial enclosure. And ad jacent to the Tatar' city on the south ern side is another, walled rectangle . that composes the'Chinese city; the -' section Where, in 1644, when ’ the MIng dynnsty fell, all of the Chinese were forced to live, the Manchus having appropriated the whole of the original city. “The old T atar walls remain much the Same today as when they were' piledJogether more than 500 years ago. Wars, time, and prying tree , roots, however, have caused them to crumble and bulge .in places. Spots show where repairs have been made. Few of the nine gates are intact, and all of the corner towers have been destroyed except two. The govern ment railway has tunneled through the wall at the southeast gate so that engines smudge the ancient barrier. “The mere cataloguing of historic temples, palaces, and buildings would make, an Impressive list The Tem ple of Heaven in Mie south portion of the Chinese suburb, where emperors once made sacrifices to the heaven and earth, and the ‘Purple Forbid den City’ in which they lived are of the greatest interest. “Unlike remote Lhasa,-which was found to be tawdry when It was final ly opened for the public to see, the forbidden city proved to be more elaborate than had been anticipated. Although, the., last Manchu emperor, Pu Yi, who has recently been made ruler of Manchukuo, abdicated id 1912, he was allowed to. live in the forbidden city until 1922. Since' that time a eommlttee has had the pal aces in its charge, and has converted a considerable- portion of the group Into & museum, portions of which are open daily to visitors. “Despite the fact that the Chinese capital has been-moved to Nanking, the legations of foreign,countries re main In Peiping. The ministers and their staffs are able to travel to Nan king and Shanghai at their conveni ence on good trains or by air, so are not disposed to abandon the costly and comfortable properties. In the legation quarter in the southern por tion of the T atar city. "Traffic In Peiping is colorful and varied. Camel caravans, two-wheeled ‘Peking’ carts, automobiles, and rik- lshas, together with pedestrians and burdened qpolies, jostle each other on the streets and at the narrow aper tures of the gates. Almost every day countless wedding and fimcral pro cessions move along the streets with their palanquins, and all the red and tinsel glitter that China assembles around these two important events, In truth, no city In the world has a more picturesque and varied traffic. “But Peiping, although it is no longer the capital of China, lives not entirely in the p ast It has excellent colleges and libraries that make it a leading cultural center for the coun try. Througii the help of the Roclw efeller foundation it also has an ef ficient hospital and medical school for the training of Chinese doctors and nurses.” Two Sides ‘T here are two sides to every argu m ent” “That’s true,” said Senator Sor ghum. “But an argument Is like a coat There’s a wrong side and a right side.”—Washington Star. t s Q uick, S afe R elief F o rE y e s Iirita te d ;; By E ^o stcre T o ; S un, W ind an d D u st A t A U D n ig S to r e s WriteMarioeCo.,Dpt.W1 Gh!oaflo,for Free Boo^ l e t HIM BEFREE FROM • WORMS ' W henever you decide to free • your child from - W orm s o r Tapew orm , get th e m edicine th at -will drive them out w ith one single dose; P r-P eeiystDEflD S H O T Vermifugo .Stc a 'bottle at druggMe or Wrizht’s KU Co., ItO Cold St., N.X.City.

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON L11KV tell the story of a philanthro pist who, upon being asked to assist in a World war memorial project, replied “Money for cold stones? Never !” W hether or not his attitude Is Indefensible de pends upon what form it was planned to have those “cold stones” take. If they were to be piled together and topped by one of those hideous cast Iron statues, which broke out like an ugly rash all over the nation after the Ciril war, perhaps he was quite right, both mor- sllj and esthetically, in withholding the support of hia money. But if It was proposed to erect > memorial of the kind that several states have WK to Iionor the memory of their World war Heroes since 1919, then perhaps his refusal is open to criticism. , A contributor to the columns; of the New York Times, commenting on the words of this philan thropist quoted above, pointed put that In mem ory of the men who “went through the scotTrge of devastating fire in France, there now exists In me American state a magnificent hospital, In uiotlier a school, in another an auditorium, Io Mother a shrine,” all of which owe their con- ttruction to the spirit of dedication, the desire to perpetuate the memory of the dead, as the tod themselves would have it—not In cold stones but in some vital and inspirational con- • Wbution to the living.” The shrine to which he refers Is In Indiana Jflere the project for honoring the memory of “or dead heroes consists of a series of splendid buildings grouped around a massive temple Khieh stands In the center of a plaza that Is jwead down like a long strip of carpet, five Mocks long and one block wide, through the Wer of her state capital, Indianapolis. years ago, In 1925, the first unit of the JMfflorial structure was erected as the home for 8 natIonal organization of the American Le-' W The fact that the nation-wide activities of. s organization are centered here is another sob why this memorial is more, than Jost a , .e proJect. but instead Ss one that has a spe- lnterest for thousands of Legionnaires Ia erJr part of the country.

Looking to the south from the Cenotaph, the visitor to the memorial sees the Mall, a large expanse of blue grass with terraces on either side and on both sides of It are walks and'grass plots lined with avenue trees and shrubbery. Continuing southward to the next block, the visitor arrives at Obelisk square, an entire block paved with macadam, and bordered with grass plots and trees'. At the four corners are pairs of large-caliber captured German field guns. In the exact center of this square is the Obelisk rising to the height of 100 feet. Near the base on each side are the bronzes of the sculptor, Henry Hering, representing the four fundamentals on which the hopes of a nation are founded—Law, Science, Religion and Educa- y In 1926 the construction of the Indiana World W ar Memorial Shrine or main building was started. The foundation for this mammoth struc ture begins about 20 feet below the street level and consists of reinforced concrete- and steel girders to carry the enormous load of the walls of the large tower which rises to a height of 210 feet above the street level. The base Is ap proximately 230 feet wide and 400 feet long, , consisting of a basement and a ground level floor which are StiU In the hands of the finis* Ing contractor. The halls and corridors of the basement and first floor will provide the space for a World w ar museum. In the center on the first floor will be an auditorium seating about 600 person?. There will be two other rooms on this floor with a capacity of 250 persons each for meetings of patriotic, organizations. About 40 feet above the street level is the podium or porcb which en tirely surrounds the tower of the building. At this level will be found the cornerstone which was laid by Gen.; John J. Pershing on July 4. 1927. t , Between the five large windows In the tower on each of the four sides are six magnificent s to n e columns, above whicli stand ‘be six heroic flirnres sculptured In stone, representing Cour- J e Memory, Peace, Victory.

The purpose of Memorial Hall, or the Shrine Eoom1 is to inspire good citizenship In all those who visit it. This inspiration will come from the room Itself, Its architectural treatment, its shape and lighting, which all form a magnificent set ting for the American flag, hanging in the center of the room, above which shines the crystal Star of Destiny. Beneath the flag is' placed the Altar of Consecration. It is also presumed that the room will extend a hand of fellowship and wel come to all nations of the worid as typified in the Inscriptions on the four sides of the Altar. Aiound the inside perimeter of the room is a marble wainscot about 17 feet high. In this mar ble wainscot oh the east and west sides are six niches, three on each side, which frame the por traits of the leading soldiers of America, France, England, Belgium, Italy and Serbia, painted by -Walter Brough. Above the marble wainscot around the entire perimeter of the room Is an allegorical sculptured frieze; the subject on the north wall represents America joining the Allies, under -the conditions of. war prevailing, 'th e head of war appearing over the world of turmoil. The east and west sides are devoted to the por trayal of the great struggle. The south side indi cates the contrasting conditions realized by ulti mate peace and the activities of mankind under these conditions. The sculptor for this work was Frank Jirouch. The main architectural features of the room are the 16 dark red columns of American marble surrounding. the room, the shafts of which are approximately 40 feet high; the color of the marble Itself being a symbol. The columns stand unusually close together, symbolizing the de fense of the nation in their sturdy quality, and the aspiration of the nation In their vertically. The columns stand on bronze bases which In turn are seated on dark green American marble. The capitals are richly decorated in gold and form a noble termination to the shafts. Between the corner pilasters and columns ad jacent to them are groups of flags of all the Allied nations, again echoing the International spirit of the room. In the four corners of the room are four silk banners of royal blue upon which are embroidered the American eagle from the official seal of the United States. The ban ners are placed between the flags of the Allies symbolically linking them together. The Altar to the Flag is In no way a religious altar In any part of Its design but rather an altar where homage can be paid to the. flag, and where people can consecrate themselves to good citizenship and patriotism. This is intended to be world wide In scope, the four sides of the altar facing north, south, east and w est The four marble eagles at the comer of the. altar are the guardians of the shrine and the gold stars In the blue marble field above the eagles represent a united band of states. The top of the shrine Is executed In brilliantly colored enam els embracing the American golden eagle, the shield of the United States, the wreath of mem ory the palms of victory and a broad gold rib bon upon which Is Inscribed In blood red letters the pledge of allegiance to the flag. On the four sides of the altar are appropriate Inscriptions. At each corner of the altar and situated on the raised plinth are four marble and gold tri pods representing sentinels of light throwing BEYOND REASON Beason on love and yon will lose yonr reason.

Mercolized .Was brings out A more correct topic for today’s les son .would be The Judgment of the Nations.' According to the legitimate textual and contextual signification It Is the judgment of the living nations, whicli still lies In the future. The idea of a general judgment Is a funda mental error. Doctor Pentecost well says, “It is a mischievous habit that has led the Christian world to speak of the judgment as being one great event taking place at the end of the world when all human beings, saints and sinners, Jews and Gentiles, the living and the dead, shall stand up before the great white throne and there be judged. Nothing can be more wide of the Scriptures.” The Bible speaks of seieral judg ments, differing in respect to the sub jects to be Judged, the place of judg ment, the time and result of the judg ment. The judgment which we are considering today Is not that one set forth in Revelation 20:11-14. It pre cedes that one by at least 1,000 years. A definite analysis of this lesson will show how entirely distinct this Judg ment is from the final judgment. I. The Judge (V.-31). . Be is the Son of man, the one who came and died to redeem the human race. At this time he is seen clothed with majesty and power sitting upon his throne acting as judge. There is no judgment, so far as sin is con cerned, for those who now accept Jesus Christ as their Saviour (John 5:24). II. The Tims of Judgment (v. SI). This judgment will take place when the Lurd comes in his glory accom panied by a retinue of glorious an gels, and after he has gathered the elect remnant of Israel. There will be no resurrection In connection with this judgment. III. The Place of'Judgment (v. 31). ■ The prophecies of Joel (2:1-17) and Zechariah (14:1-5) show that it will be In or near Jerusalem. The angel said to Mary, “Thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the High est, and the Lord Gcd shall give unto him the throne of his father David. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end” (Luke 1 :31- 33). As David was a literal king and reigned at a literal place, there shall be at that time a literal judge occupy ing a literal place c* Judgment IV. The People Judged (vv. 32-45). It is expressly declared “before him shall be gathered all nations.” They will be the nations left upon the earth after the church has been translated (I Thess. 4:16, 17). These are the na tions to whom the gospel of the king dom shall be preached just prior to the coming of the end of this age. “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached In all the world for a wit ness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (M att 24:14). This gos pel is1 distinct from the grace. of God which is now being preached. The preachers of this gospel will be the Jews (Rev. 7 and Rom. 11). They' will move among the nations of the earth with the startling news of the Lord’s approaching kingdom. V. The Issue of the Judgment (w . 82-46). Some of the nations will gladly re ceive the message of the kingdom and most kindly receive the King’s messen gers. Others will persecute them, thrusting them into prison. Here those who receive the message will visit the messengers of the King and provide for their wants. At this time the judge will separate the nations, placing' the sbeep on the right hand and the goats on the left The sheep are those who give proper treatm ent to Christ’s brethren, the .messengers of the gospel of the year flidden beauty.

IfcJ-' IIt W: f e : News Review of Current » Events theWorldOver NRA Will Abandon Codes for Small Businesses—More Strikes in Automobile Industry Are Foreseen by William Green. Ge n e r a l J o h n s o n and his as sistants in the NRA are tired of trying of enforce the multiplicity of codes for small groups, and therefore the administration has decided to abandon thousands of those arranged for lesser in dustrial plants and service establish ments. in fact, to regulate prices and trade practices and innumerable details In couDtless small busi nesses has proved to be impracticable and Gen. Johnson the effort has taken an outrageously large percentage of NRA work and funds. Johnson said he was working on arrangements to substitute simple agreements for codes covering small industries. These agreements mere ly will cover wages, hours and the collective bargaining guarantees* of the recovery act. The agreements may be identical with the Presidential re-employment contract that employers signed last summer pending adoption of codes. Those who are relieved from codes will be permitted to continue to dis play the Blue Eagle If they sign such agreements. The relaxation prob ably will apply to nearly all small establishments except retail stores. It was reported in Washington that General Johnson would soon ask the President to empower him to super vise and check prices which private business concerns are charging their customers. This would be the start of his attack on the charges that the NRA is fostering monopoly and high prices. The President could take the action by issuing an executive order and congressional sanction would not be necessary. Two drastic changes are expected to be made in the price policies that Johnson has been following so far. First, he may require-all coded indus tries to report their prices to the NRA instead of to their own code authori ties as at present Second, Johnson may demand that the government veto any prices which it considers ex tortionate or unreasonable. The silk textile industry found Itself • overloaded with surpluses of goods, and the NRA permitted all the mllis to shut down for one week, dur ing which time 30,000 workers are un employed. The shutdown was ordered by the silk textile authority, the board set up by the industry itself to rule the Industry under the code. ' Officially the NRA itself did not order or ap prove the layoff, but it is. watching it closely. It may suggest the same device to other industries. Tlie cotton textile manufacturers are reported to be eyeing the silk shutdown envi ously. A ISIING directly at the American **■ Telephone and Telegraph com pany and the Western Union company, both of whicli are said to have defied him, Recover; Administrator Johnson made public a drastic code for the wire communications Industry pre-' pared by his own staff. Imposition of a code is regarded to all Intents the same as writing law for the industry affected, equal in scope to the author ization for licensing Industry. Noth ing like it has been resorted to here tofore. In the telegraph case, with all but one minority group flatly opposed to any code, the NRA Is proposing to change long-standing conditions and alter the Internal economy of the in dustry on the ground that existing conditions burden commerce and re duce employment A date for hearings was se t after which the President was to be asked to take action. The code, If adopted, would deprive extensive Interests of financial au- vantages amounting to many millions of dollars, the NRA authorities 'de claring these are not fairly held. Among the things it would abolish are: Exclusive rights of the Western Union Telegraph company to some thing like $25,000,000' worth of busl. ness annually; use by many corpora tions of private wire circuits leased at figures alleged to be out of line with regular charges for the same volume of business, and free use of these cir cuits by client? of the lessees. •CTRIKES In many branches of the ° automobile industry will occur un less th e ' striking employees of tlie Fisher Body plant at FUnt Mlch., win their demands, according to President Green of the American Federation of- Labor. - “The strike of the workers em ployed a t': (be, Fisher Body plant at !Flint Mich.v reflects the spirit irf un- rest and discontent Which -Preyalls among the automobile: workers at-' the present time;” Green said in a state m ent “There will be no peace in this au tomobile Industry,” he added, “ until the grievance of the workers are fair* Iy settled, discrimination and coercion stopped, the right of collective bar gaining established' snd .■ company ufalon domination and Intimidation stopped." B y EDWARD W. PICKABD ® by Western Newspaper Union. Dissatisfaction * has been accentu ated, he added, "because of the failure of the automobile labor board to func tion properly and effectively.” JgY A vote of 62 to 13 the senate passed the Fletcher-Rayburn bill which places the securities m arkets of the country under the regulatory con trol of a federal commission. The measure already had passed the bouse, so it went to conference and thence to the President for his signature. This law, coupled with the securities act puts tbe financing of business almost completely under the control of the government The Fletcher-Rayburn bill actually was written by four members of the “brain trust”—James Landis, member of federal trade commission; Ben Cohen, PWA counsel; Thomas Cor coran, RFC counsel; Ferdinand Pecora, who acted as examiner and director of the senate committee’s inquiry, and Max Lowenthal, adviser to the com mittee. Miss Eliza- beth Wheeler *• T ltT -ORLD Good Will day” was ’ ' May 18, and to mark it stu dents from colleges in all parts of the country gathered In Washington and staged a demonstra tion In support of world disarm am ent Miss E lizabeth Wheeler, daughter of United.States Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, was chair man of the affair, and after the meeting Miss Wheeler led a delegation to the White House and pre sented to President Roosevelt a petition asking him to take the lead In secur ing a world treaty for complete dis armament. News from abroad indicates that this Is.imposing a tremendous task on Mr. Roosevelt for the prospects of disarmament are growing slimmer dally. There is no abatement of the quarrel between France and Germany over German rearming, and France has IehgHiened the term of Servicer Of Its soldiers, which example Belgium probably will follow. Hungary and Jugoslavia are engaged In a bitter border dispute and tbe former has asked for help - from the League of Nations council, which has opened an other session In Geneva. Japan, still Stubbornly aloof, seems to-be seeking a new cause for hostilities against China, alleging that a number of Jap anese soldiers were killed by Chinese troops. The League’s commission on the Paraguay-Bollvla war In the Gran Chaco submitted a report recommend ing that all nations of the world, espe cially the American republics, be asked to join In an effort to shut off from the two South American coun tries all the materials necessary to carry on a war. W Ait In Arabia has come to an end for the present an armistice having been officially announced. King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia, apparently Is the victor, for it was stated his terms had been accepted by the Iman Tahya of Yemen, though the terms of the treaty were not made pub lic immediately. Ibn Sand’s m odernly equipped. armies al ready had captured Hodeida, the Yemen seaport and were advancing on Sana, & Ibn Saud the capital. The lighting in that area ceased. King Ibn Saud has been gradually extending his power since 1024, and it. was believed he intended to add Ye men to his territories. He took ad vantage of a border quarrel to start hostilities some weeks ago.. In a re cent interview Ibn Saud said: “I have never.-envisaged territorial expansion, and I have never desired to conquer Yemen, but just as the conquest of Hejaz was .forced upon me a decade ago by the hostilities of King Hussein, similarly Yahya has forced war upon •me now by sending troops into Nasir and Najran while nominally engaged In. negotiations for peaceful settle m ent" ■ CHJR twraity-six years a prejudice 4 dating back to the Civil mar has kePt- ^ epIW e. of -TirginIa from being represented 'I n the S&tuary hill in' the Capitol at Washington. T his'state of affairs has now'crime to an end, for congress' ha:s accepted'as gifts from Virginia the two statues.which, were Ilrst offered In 1?08 and re.ipoted. They are a copy of'tbe famous statue of Washington by Houdiir and a statue' of Gen. Robert E. Lee by Valentine.' ' Senator Walsh of Massachusetts presided- at .the-ceremonies and by his side was Senator Gl^ss ■ of Virginia, The-presentation was made, by Govij George:; Peery of Virginla and the chief speaker-was Dr. Francis Gaines; .president of Washington and Lee uni versity. CONGRESS received for action the relief bill appropriating $1,322,000,- 000, and included in the measure were liberal funds for relief of the drouth- Etricken areas of the Middle West This was by direction of the President who considers the drouth so serious that he called tbe cabinet together to discuss the situation. In discussing the general terms of the bill the President explained that he had had to cnrtall his relief budget because congress had spent so much on other items that, without a reduc tion in relief funds, the total budget would be thrown further out of line than the White House will perm it In a burst of petty economy induced by the misstatements of. Tom Bianton of Texas, the house cut In half the requested appropriation for continuing government representation at the Cen tury of Progress exposition in Chicago. Only $200,000 was granted, and the bill In this form was passed also by the senate. SOME sort of a compromise on silver legislation that will be. acceptable to both the White House and the silver bloc In congress Is likely to be worked o u t though Senator Borah, who wants outright remon etization of the white metal, thought the plan being prepared would not serve. Sec retary of the Treas ury Morgenthau and eight silver senators held-prolonged confer ences, and all but the gentleman from Idaho were fairly well satis fied. Senator King of Utah said he hoped for a bill which would nationalize silver bullion and provide for the establishment of a 25 per cent silver reserve for currency. Probably the measure will be manda tory as to policies a'nd permissive in leaving to tbe discretion of the Pres ident the means of carrying out the policies. Secretary Morgenthau SECRETARY OF WAR DERN, In bis capacity as president of the Na tional Forest Reservation commission, announced a program involving the ultimate purchase of 3,000,000 acres In tbe southern Appalachian region and the Immediate purchase of 762,186 acres in 45 units scattered through eastern states. He said the acquisi tion of units approximating 2,326,000 acres on the headwaters of the Ten nessee river, which would nearly dou ble the areas of national forests In the Appalachian region, would enable the United States forest service and co-op; erating agencies to consolidate fire pro tection and combat excessive erosion" In the Tennessee drainage system. . Rehabilitation of the new national forest lands, Dern said, also is expect ed to help prevent disastrous ftootisj and to furnish continuous, even 'KSw of water for hydro-electric develop ment and community w ater supply., Industries expected by the w ar sec retary to be aided by the development and protection of timber stands, In clude pulp and paper mills, wood using: factories of various lines, rayon mills, and other Indtistries depending on for est products. The purchases will be made from the $20,000,000 fund allotted by Presi dent Roosevelt for purchase of forest lands as an emergency relief measure. ANDREW W. MELLON, the ven erable and. wealthy ex-secretary of the treasury and former ambassa dor to England, came out on top In his latest contest with the Department of Jus tice. The government had accused ' him of evading his Income taxes and sought his indictment by a fed eral grand jury In Pittsburgh. However, the grand Juipy re fused to return a true bill, declaring the charges were without . ............... basis. A. W. Mellon The foreman of the' jury was Wil liam Beeson, a bank clerk. Among others on the jury were five laborers, two7 farmers, two engineers, two -me chanics,, two clerks, one plumber,‘one carpenter, a lumber dealer, and a writer. Mr. Mellon said: “I am of course gratified that I have been exonerated by a jury of my fellow citizens.’The fact that the grand jury reached a soiind Conclusion, notwithstanding the unusual methods pursued In my case, is proof of the good sense and fairness of the American people.” In fprevlous statem ents Mr, Mellon had charged Attorney General -Cum mings with playing politics “ of the crudest so rt’’ and had set forth at length his innocence. ; HOW the League of Nations pro poses to aid China was told In a long report, made public by the Nan king government, covering the ar rangement made by Dr. Ludwig RaJch- man, representative;In China of the- league.

The definition of a banker as one who “lends you an umbrella when the sun Is shining and takes it back when it rains” Is not ju st The sound banker is one who does not lose his bank’s money. How can he lend It when he has not the faintest idea w hat anything or anybody is worth and does not even know what a dollar is worth? A law compelling stock speculators to margin their gambling by. 40 or more per cent may stimulate bank loans. The banker may say to the speculator and broker, “I’ll add 20 per cent cash to that margin, or even 40 per cent because I love you both, only I must ‘have a first lien on the entire Business.” W hat could the virtuous, reforming brain-trusters do about that?

In this year of our Lord, Americans are drinking more whisky than they did before prohibition, and paying taxes ‘on i t Three hundred millions of gallons o t bootleg liquor-is not in cluded In the statistics. Beer drinking has fallen off 50 per cent according to reports from WashlBgton. Prohiblfion restored whisky as the national drink. Thomas Jefferson, who thought beer would provide an antidote to drunken ness, which was widespread In his day, would be disturbed by the beer news. B ut he was old-fashioned. .

Eng land probably either faces a substan tial payment or official default ' Germany, owing private debts to Americans, English and French plans to pay the English and French, and let the Americans wait, In accordance with a well-established European cus tom. President Roosevelt is said to have Informed Germany that be does not favor this discrimination. " He might stop the German nonsense by'inform ing Mr. Hitler’s government that until he treats bis American creditors exactly as any others the ports of the United States will be closed to German 'products and. If necessary, to German ships also. This country doesn’t need Europe, and Europe does need this country. “Steel” Is looking up, the output be ing a t a higher level now than any time- since June, 1930. 1 Incidentally; In Geneva, v^here world news and .war news centers, it Is learned that “the nations are strength ening every military branch of their governments.” - If all this getting ready should end as It usually does In Europe you would see United States steel production go up fast Many million tons of iron, would be heeded for killing, ' , .

The tipofl as to the direction from which the attack will come arose the other day without attracting a great deal of attention. It came from Rep resentative Snell of New York, the Re publican leader in the house, who op posed one of the newer brain-trust creations because he declared, un equivocally, “ the emergency Is over.” ' After- Mr. Snell had made the state ment, I inquired of a number of per sons, astute In politics, what they thought of this anomaly. Here is a leader of the opposition party declar ing that the emergency is over, and if that condition exists, the leader of the opposition, by Inference a t least has adm itted that credit for the job must be given the Roosevelt administration. I find as well that the Democrats can hardly adm it the correctness of the statem ent without admitting a t the -same tim e that there should be an end Immediately to the countless emergen cy agencies that the Roosevelt admin istration has set up. It seems, to me, therefore, that we are witnessing one of the most ridiculous situations that has ever occurred in politics where peculiar things are tbe rale. Suc cinctly, It amounts to this: each side actually Is contending that the other Is rig h t Of course, It should be said, much w ater will flow under the bridge be fore the votes are counted in Novem ber; indeed, many changes will , have come before the congressional cam paigns in the various states get stirred up to a, white h eat but -unless the course of battle now indicated is al tered, I predict the campaigners will have to do some fancy high rope walk ing. It surely appears that getting one’s own legs tangled up In those ar guments Is about the easiest thing in sig h t ■ ■ ■ ■ „ . ' Curious possibilities are offered, by the- situation. For example, are the Democrats going to go out on the hustings and say to their mass meet ings IniCffeCt that “we have not ;suc- .ceeaed ^ w e must keep the AAA and the NRA” and others? And, at the same lime, are we going to ‘ hear from Republican spellbinders th at “the Democrats have ■ licked the de pression and they must now put an end to their orgy of spending and run ning up bills whifeh the taxpayers must meet”? Neither side, of course, will say It In those words. Blit, if the argument goes ahead as it has started, that will have to be the substance of their tale to the voters. Therewlllbave to be some very careful, as well as very quick, thinking before the campaign’s end. One pollticial observer here suggested that- this m ay-turn out to be a most confusing campaign because of the anomaly that Is now presented by Mr. Snell’s declaration. • * * * There Is considerable discussion here as to bow far-reaching the effect may be If1 tbe Re- J u s t publicans stress, S p e c u la tio n with sufficient vigor. tbe contention that the Democrats; are trying to hold on to the extra jobs and that they are continuing to spend taxpayers’ money for repayment of political debts. There . is always something sinister about that kind of thing. W hether: the charge.-is right or wrong, many voters ggt suspicious when campaigners per sist In talking about raids on the fed eral treasury. They always , think of ft In term s of theft of money from the local bank or stores and not in the term s of political maneuvering, al though I confess I can see little dif ference. It always has happened that the political party In power has con trolled the' flow off public moneys into the spots jyhere the'iunds will do tbe ■most good, politically, and when-either side IcIcks about th a t It seems to me it Is exactly Jjke one mule calling an other !'Iongeiw." I won’t even suggest that I can guess what ’the ultim ate effect of these strange arguments is going to - be. Anyone who tries to predlct the result at 'this tim e-Is Just being silly. The best judgment’l ean get is th at the re sults In the varlous congressional dis tricts are going; to vary.

W hen millions of people are ir need of the three chief necessities f life—food, clothing and shelter —a great deal is said about over production—too much wheat, t ic much beef and too many p'gs, which seem to be the cry, but is-U iot a false alarm? There isn’t too much food, so long as there is a hungry soul suffering for. want .of it. There isn’t too much clothing when honest men and women with- their children go in rags, with no money to buy with. - How can - a processing tax on wheat help the- working man? H e will have to pay more for his bread. It will onl> help the wheat farmer—a process-- ing tax on which.,, the consumer must pay, and the proceeds are 'to be used to reduce the wheat acre- age for the sole purpose of .raising the price of wheat, which the cdg-; sumer. will have to pay still mo*£ for his bread.

Later they were, called on to sup ply so many different items that they found it necessary to employ a botanist. They secured Prof. M. E. Hyams, who bad attained quite a.re- putation in the botanical world. ? In 1875'Prof, Hyams prepared a collection of; plants which the firm exhibited at the PhiladelphiaCehten- nial, for which the firm was award* ed a medal and diploma for the ex tent, variety and 'general complete ness of same. .- The firm w as'prevailed upon by the United States governm ent: to make a similar exhibit in Pari j Are yoii a safe waiscerr-®-*. came out, brewery ,V was emptied, according to an ac count told by an eye witness.

The firm’B catalog listed 640 medi cal plants secured from Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Virginia, Tennes see and -Kentucky* but at least. 90 per cent Of the supplies came from various sections of this state. The firm was recognized as being an authority on this line, and head of the crude drug; industry. States ville at that time was a mere village, but Wallace Brothers put: the town on the map, Maury’s Geography made note of it, and Statesville be came noted as. having the largest herbarium in the world. ' In 1923 a partition and division was made of the original business ol Wallace Brothers, A t that thne Sig Wallace, son of Isaac Wallace, after thirty years as manager of the root and herb department of the old firm, withdrew and established a business of his own, located on Meeting street A large warehouse was built and Statesville boasted two big crude drug establishments. - Both warehouses are filled witb bales of common and uncommon herbs, varying with the demand and the stock is in constant sta te . of change. George E. Woodward who had been assoc ated-with the older men in the business went with Sig to the new stand. Mr. Woodward has been in the business for 53 years and knows his stuff.. r 'i Isidore Wallace, son of David Wal lace, took' the management of the crude drug departm ent of the old concern, and continues its operation at corner of-M eeting and Walnut street. The old -wooden building tdat toises so much of .valuable material; was. constructed nearly, taree quarters of a century ago,, and the timbers used tell a- story, forests that are no more. - ~ Serums have replaced medicines to such extent that the demand for crude drugs is not what it once was, Mr. Isidore Wallace' states that the demand is little more than one-fourth what it was ten ago < Mr. " Wallace says that ‘ maybe modern love-making has bad a -hand; in A is dearth of business. / Let The Biahog Gannon*ha8 been &rouglr/;' ® ^ ^ s jM ^ e8Ugti^ causing somewhat of a s tir ‘a t-th e c Mfethodistrconferencei recently held at Jackson, Miss.' - '■ We wish that the federal govern-"^ ment would let-the Bishop- alone.

To be perfectly frank about it, we’re sort-of fed up on the Bishop* He’s ^ great man, and he’s done a lot of worth while things, but why not give him a rest for a change?

This is because those who dig and prepare the herbs, do so as a side line and at odd times. When large quantities are wanted the gatherer m ust be paid a price that will enable him to make a reasonable daily- wage, and the price to the consumer m ust be raised accordingly. The local market for roots : and herbs continues to furnish consider* able cash to many who need it. When a representative of The Record dropped in on Mr. Wallace the other day he found a group of ■ little: pick-.. amnniea-waiting on the same old beneh where a good many-years -ago he sat anxiously waiting for his turn: of dock root to be weighed and:qash- ed These youngsters'had b^gs of something'else, but the chances-are that the money brought the saine pleasure-in spending that it did in yesteryear.

O u rd e' mocratic friends went howling, up and down through North Carolina two years ago preaching that the way to stop blockading and drink ing -was to repeal the - Federal pro hibition law. Lots of people be Iieved them, and the Federal law was repealed after a wet president was elected. Tbe good people have had their eyes opened and find that conditions m wet states are much worse since liqucr was legalized. N ext Saturday is primary day in N orth Carolina. The Republicans in Davie have only three office' •with a contest—Solicitor, Repre sentative and Coroner., The demo crats have a judgeship to settle, also office of Register and Clerk; From present indications the Repub lican vote m the county . will be very light. Democrats will no doubt cast most of their strength in the judgeship contest. Hayden Burke, ot Taylorsville. J. W Ragland, of Spruce Pine, and J. A. Rousseau of North Wilkesboro, are the de mocrats who want the nomination for judge.- We believe the fight WtU be pretty close between Burke and Rousseau, with Ragland run uing far behind m most of the six counties in the district.' fohn R Jones. Republican Solicitor, is op posed by F. T: McDuffie, Wilkes boro lawyer, but it appears at this writing that Jones will carry all six counties Saturday. The race between Brock and Morris,- for the legislature, and Kennen and Mc Culloh for Coroner, is very quiet and but little interest manifested. The Republican party has been in power in Davie county for the past two years.- The county-officers are all Republicans, and so far as we know, they have given satisfactior . to the voters and taxpayers; Taxes . have been reduced--on account of the state taking off the 15 cent land tax and. putting us under the' sales ta^,.which we-beheve to be about the worst thing a democratic legis lature has imposed upon us In many years, .-'The Republican, county commissioners can’t reduce the tax esjiny lower than what they-are, in our opinion, neither could a demc- - cratic board reduce the taxes and pay the running expenses of ‘ the county.

His activity in the prospecution of Stevanoff and Black and later of the Greens, who committed .the darkest crime in the history of the county, entitles him to the support of every liberty loving man and woman within our borders.' -Sfe stood up for you, for law, th e ' tra- ditions of this country, the peacablg Possession of your property, yojtr right of life and liberty, against; gang rule, despotism, riot, and blood shed. And how well he did •t, you all know. - - ■ Four men have been incarcerated in death tow awaiting execution for tbis crime, This is a record any untiring energy of John R. Jones. W e ask you Io go out and vote for him^and not his opponent, who once boasted of-. citizenship in oiir fair county, and; who in this trying hour for- a few paltry dollars, went to the -defense of the dastardly cowards, who in open daylight, after m ature deliberation and Rafter hav ing conspired together for three days. committed the blackest crime in the annals of our -county. He deserves no vote at-your band,-but rather a scourging for his p art play ed in this tragedy.. . ' And he has-tjever proven his a- bility to stand before the assembled court. H e should prove himself arid defend the'law .and traditions of our people. U ntil then he should not ask your support.

He marshalled and presented his facts with~ such care, comprehension, " persistency and earnestness, that no man-could question his ability or his sincerity in his great effort to protect ; the interest of the State.-; In my opin ion, he is not only a great lawyer, would strengthen it, vote for Jones, great solicttoi, but he has no peer G o.out, and when there, do your ‘ when it comes to discharging .his part.

I t’s a. fact. And if you pause to 'think for a moment or two?, you'll admit it. .We’ve been spending" billions of dollars during the. j>ast .several months. W e’re contim iing.tospend huge sums. All of that money has to be paid hack. And who’s going to pay it back? Nobody except that well known citizen, Mr. John Taxpayer. H e’s the fellow who — either directlv or indirectly—is going to put alt of those ibiiiions. back into lh e tresury again.

If we do/ not vote in this Prim ary and help nominate the candidate of our choice, we possibly won’t have a chance to vote for him m the fall election! A tto rn e.v-l—-----—*—r—rrrC~ of the candidates for ■ Superior Court Judge to succeed Judge T. B. Finley, is a near neighbor and Jriend of' ours. Naturally, we love and admire our neighbors when they are good neighbors. (W e- are able to judge th at in twelve years). Mr. Burke is an active worker in our Presbyterian church, He is one. of the m ost useful and high ly esteemed citizens of our town. Heisnotonly an outstanding lawyer here and in adjoining counties, but he stands high in his_profession throughout the State, a m an known not only for his legal ability, but for his- great -sympathy and deep understand ing of hum an nature. Fair, and- ju st in his dealings with men, the most obscure person would, at his hands, receive equal justice with one of high estate. He is es-- pecially fond of young people. His restraining hand would also be a hand of love. Indeed, Mr. Burke has all of the characteris tics th at one could expect or desire m a man or a Judge. There never has been a tim e when there was greater need for officials of high honor and character. Our Judges should be our best men. In the 12 years I have lived here, I have never heard a word against Mr. Burke.- His life is an open book. - So, now I ask you to. support my friend and neighbor, our be loved townsman,, and: A lexander’s, illustrious son, J.

The October -morning was perfect, the sun warm and - caressing. Craig swerved from the main road and fol lowed a trail toward a low mountain. At the foot of it he stopped the road- ster. Will you climb Lone mountain with me. Miss Brown?” “Pd love to!” Like a small boy appeased, -Td rather show my paradise than Juarez, anyhow I” ,, Mary looked at him as they climbed. The chivalrous cavalier—that was the atmosphere about him, and yet he was not so much as placing a perfunctory hand at her elbow as she took the rugged slope with long strides. A .man whom you trust in the deep woods is a man .to be trusted anywhere,-4s he not, asked Mary’s instinct. • “I was rather -horrid—there a t El Paso,” she balf-apologized.- He laughed. “Did you think I didn’t understand? T hat I didn’t know you were a girl first adventuring abroad alone?

He parted a clump of young pine as he spoke, to let Mary through, and they climbed on to the top. From the eminence Mary gazed down upon an exquisite valley several square miles In area, all hemmed in by huddles of enfolding hills which the purple ridge of the Coast range overtowered like a guardian In the west. There were vistas of smaller valleys between the hills, faint intriguing trails that plunged into canyons, or climbed gal lantly towa.rd the uplands. There was something about the scene that pro voked her reverence, and something intim ate and tender that tugged at her heartstrings.

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. a —WNU Service. A LTHOUGH members of the humming bird family are the tiniest of birds, they belong to a huge family. There are 488 known species of humming birds and there are 150 or more additional sub species or geographic races, making a total of more than 600 recognized kinds. They are found only In the New world, where - they range from the Strait of Magellan to Canada and Alas ka, constituting one of the most bril liantly colored and specialized families of birds found in this vast region. The family is most abundant, as re gards species, near the Equator, in the Andean region of South America. The Republic of Ecuador has 148 kinds of bummers and Colombia 105 known forms. In passing north and south from these centers of maximum abundance, species become fewer; so that In North America north of Mexico (but Includ ing Lower California) only 16 kinds of humming birds are found regularly, while three others may come casually within these limits. In the Uaited.States humming.Jbirds are found in greatest variety In the Southwest, only one species, the ruby- throat, ranging east of the Mississippi river. The mountain meadows of our southwestern states in midsummer, when their rich assortments of flowers are In bloom, frequently swarm with humming birds of a number of species feeding on the blossoms and pursuing one another pugnaciously in pnre ex uberance of. life. It ts. under such cir cumstances that these sprightly birds appear at their best, and one never tires of watching them. Humming birds are most abundant In regions where there are thickets or Other = Woodland interspersed With meadows and openings where the birds may feed, and disport themselvoa in the-sunshine. Some kinds are inhabi tants of heavy forests, these being found mainly in tropical regions, where . certain species, have become adapted to life In the dense rain for- Inhabitant of Dense Forests. The emerald humming bird of Haiti and the Dominican republic lives In the densest Of forest growths, where the vegetation drips constantly with water from the daily rains, and comes only occasionally Into Uttle openings to ,feed at flowers. Its deep-green col oration blends with its forest back ground, so that often the subdued hum ming of its wings, as It moves among the branches, may be heard for some time before one can' distinguish the form of the bird In the somber shad ows. An existence of such a type Is in strong contrast to that of the beautiful iong-tailed Sappho hummer that is found In the Andean foothills of west ern Argentina, living In open valleys grown with low creosote bush, where the birds are constantly found in the open. The majority of hummers are char acterized by glittering reflections from their plumage, and as a general rule the males are more brilliant than the females. The hues of the plumage are iri descent and are caused by the refrac tion of light On close examination of the feather of a bird, it is found to be composed of many fine filaments, which under the microscope are seen to be divided into still finer divisions. In the shining feathers of hummers, there is an abundance of dark pigment In the tiny feather divisions known as barbules. The sheath overlying this pigment is either smooth and highly pol ished’ or has’- many1 minute lines on or under its surface. This structure causes a reflection or a refraction of the light, according to the circum stance, making the brilliant hues found in these birds. As for form, the variation among hummers is truly astonishing. The smallest bird In the world is Helena’s humming bird of Cuba, from two and one-fourth to two and one-half Inches or a trifle more In length, with the wing only one and one-third Inches ,long or. less and the bill less. than, half , ah. inch long. • This tiny sprite is sometimes called the fairy hummer. In contrast , to it, there Is the giant bummer of the cen tral and southernvAndean mountains that is about eight and one-half inches in length and has a wing five Inches long. This species is as large in body as a bluebird and is strong and power ful, resembling a large* swift in general appearance. Variations in Form. V ariations^ details of form are as •emarkable as those In size. Inone ipecieS'Uf bummer, =the sword-bearer. the bill is nearly five Inches long, be ing longer than the rest of the bird. Another has the bill less than a quar ter of an inch long. Most hummers have straight bills, but there is the sickleblll, in which the bili is curved so that its outline forms one-third of a circle. Such adaptations allow feeding In special flowers, the sword-bearer frequenting long, trumpet-shaped blossoms, while the sicklebill is partial to certain or chids, palms, and other peculiar blos soms,- where-the throat of the flower Is curved. Variations In the form of the tall In this group are equally remarkable. Most, species have the feathers of or dinary length, forming a square or slightly notched tall, but In contrast to these there are the racket-tailed hummers, in which the lateral feathers are greatly elongated, with the tip nar rowed and then expanded so that it resembles a racket The long-tailed hummers have tails three or four times as long as the body, the longest feath ers being seven inches in length. It Is usual for male humming birds ,to have a spot,of brilliant iridescent color on the,throat With this there are often peculiar feather develop ments In the form of crests, or gorgets, that provide increased surface for these areas of brilliant color, and oft en produce most remarkable and ex traordinary appearances. In search of specimens of humming birds for tile National museum. Dr. Alexander Wetmore of the Smithsoni an Institution visited the little island of Vieques, east of Puerto Rico, In the West Indies, and on his first morning In-the country collected a, tiny hum mer feeding at flowers In the top of a small tree. In the air it had appeared ordinary, but, to- hls amazement, when It came to his hand it possessed a long, pointed crest of the most bril liant green imaginable. The nests of humming birds are made of soft plant-downs, formed ihtb a cup-shaped structure' that iii most instances is placed firmly on some small twig or branch, sometimes near the ground and sometimes high above It, The outside of this structure US’ ually is covered with bits of bark and moss bound In place with spider web, so that the nest is inconspicuous, re sembling merely a knot on a limb. Some species attach their nests to leaves o r. to the ends of brandies, so that they are semipendent. Two white eggs, resembling pearls against, their background, of plant down, are laid by most species whose nesting ,habits ..are known. Occasion ally one egg constitutes a set, and rarely three. Though large In compari son to the size of the parent, In the case of the smaller hummers, the eggs are very tiny. Those of the vervain hum mer of Haiti, a species that is barely larger than the smallest species known, measure less than half an inch long by one-third of an Inch in di ameter. Eat Nectar and Insects. That humming birds .feed oo tile nec tar of flowers Is. universally known, but the part that nectar plays In their diet is not- so great as -is popularly believed, since large numbers of tiny flies, bees, beetles, and other Insects, as well as spiders, are captured in the flower corollas. These tiny birds are hungry for meat as well as for sweets. The stom achs of the various speeies that have been examined to learn something of their food have been filled with frag ments of Insects and spiders. After the ROtrimeut has been extracted from these, the Indigestible parts are formed into tiny pellets that are regurgitated to empty the stomach for another meal. Some kinds of hummers, particularly forest-inhabiting forms, pay little at tention to.blpssoms, but spend much of their time In gleaning over the moss- covered bark of the trees of their for est haunt searching fog animal food. Others have been seen feeding on tiny gnats gathered in whirling clouds In the air. The hummers, hang witb rap-' Idly vibrating'■ wings, seizing the mi nute Insects one by one in flight and whirling about with the greatest celer ity In securing their prey. Flowers, however, are attractive to most humming birds In the' semlarid sections of western Argentina, a red- flowered epiphyte is highly attractive to them. The general tone of vegeta tion In these desert areas is gray- green, so that the red color of the flowers stands out prominently at a distance. It is evident that they are Souight by the hummers, as the birds Sy directly from clump to clump even When - these are separated by a con- slderable-dlstance. ..... ■ * In their feeding, hummers, like bees, carry pollen from blossom to blossom and some species are Important agent, ln th e fertilization-ef tflowers. O L D C H R IS T M A S S T IL L K E P T U P Had Origin' in First English Colony in New World. Each year we read with sentimen tal interest descriptions of the cele bration. of “Old Christmas” by flsh- erfolk and other residents of Jhe an cient village of Rodanthe, on the long and narrow outer barrier is lands that impound Pamlico sound off North Carolina. Sometimes we read that the celebration is held on January 5 and sometimes that, it is held on January 6, the difference be ing that Twelfth Night, or Old Christmas Eve, may Imve greater emphasis in celebration than Twelfth Tide on Twelfth Day (Old Christmas Day) as the villagers continue a celebration that extends back to their forefathers and even the time of Sir Walter Raleigh and establish ment .of the first English colony In the New world.- However, if we search the back districts of the Missouri Ozarks, it is quite likely that we could find this belated celebration of Christmas much closer tc our own modern homes, as well as hear the belief ex pressed that on Twelfth Night cattle of the fields' kneel in greeting to the new-born Christ. This tradi tion and refusal to accept the calendar corrections of Pope Greg ory were brought to this coun try by early settlers from Britain and persisted for many generations not only in the barrier islands that pro tect North Carolina from the raging sea, but In the mountains along the eastern seaboard, spreading even to the Ozarks of Missouri and Arlrnn- sas as the mountaineers sought new homes. It is fitting, however, that the tra dition had its spread only by family and that the outstanding community expressions remains near the place it was introduced to. America, in Dare county, North Carolina, where the first .-white -child to be born in America came into being. This child was Virginia Dare, granddaughter of John White, a leader, whose small Roanoke island colony disappeared without trace while White was on a journey home for supplies. Rodanthe is only about a score of miles from Roanoke island and a part of the same chain of banks, with Kitty Hawk, where the first successful airplane-fiigbt was made, only a few miles away on the same chain. So what better place could be found for the support of tradi tion, even though there be'som e un certainty whether it is In observ ance of Old Christmas Eve or Old Christmas Day that fishing, nets are -laid aside?—St. Louis Globe Demo crat. Effects of W ar Gases Most physicians believed at the close of the AVorid w ar that the re- SiiItS of the gas attacks during the war would surely be the development of tuberculosis and bronchial trou bles among the victims. Fifteen years have passed without the feared after effeets. A careful check by the W ar de partm ent and the Veterans bureau has revealed that very few of the tubercular and. bronchial cases can be laid at the door of gas attacks. Iium ost of.tiiese cases it is ..believed that the germs were already present and not caused by the gas. Medical officers believe that enough time has passed to show up any after effects caused by the gas experience.— Pathfinder Magazine.

If she wants to do it. she can write a com bination volume which will be a guide book to more than a dozen of them and the titie of it might tell be “So You’re Going to Chicago.” Which is by way of saying that this summer thousands of Americans are “going abroad at home" by visiting the second edition of the big show which the middle western metropolis put 01 last summer. For the outstanding feature of Ihe 1934 Century of Progress exposition is the foreign villages which now.stand on. the„shorea «f Late Michigan. Unlike other world's fairs there you got your idea of what a certain for- eign country was like 'oy inspecting a formal ‘exhibit” of some of the products, handicraft, etc, of that land, this year’s exposition in Chi cago offers you a “grand tour” of four conti nents concentrated in less space than a town ship in your home county, where in the trans planted bits of more than a dozen foreign lands Jon can hobnob with their people and breathe In the very atmosphere of their everyday life. Of the four continents represented by villages •I the fair, Europe lias the greatest number. A Jisltto the English village is more than a trip •cross the Aiiantic to call on our British cousins. It means also a journey back into the past—to hat Merrie England of the Sixteenth century ®sde glamorous by the writings of several im mortals who lived then. For over here is the cottage of Ann Hathaway, to which more than once across the fields of Stratford-on-Avon came sitCetheart, young Will Shakespeare, as yet unconscious of the fame that was to be his. there Is a replica of Haddon Hail, home Cf the [ Ptely Dorothy Vernon, whose tempestuous career rescued from the obscurity of history In the WSes of Charles Major’s “When Knighthood , ' Flower.” And not far away is the replica Pogis church where Gray wrote his c?y in a Country Churchyard,” and another i 1, ulSrave Manor, ancestral home of the Wash-[ U=Stons.

Against a background of syn thetic-snow-covered mountains (they were built to order and contain .more than 15 tons of steel, 90,000 feet of lumber and 2,000 yards of plaster) you’ll see typical German houses, their roofs mantled with mow (synthetic)1 and with Icicles (also synthetic! hanging from their eaves. Over there y^u see—but the little door on that cuckoo clock hinging on the wall has flown open and the cuckoo;is telling you that it’s time to re sume your “toir” to that Swiss village that nes tles at the foc| of the snow-covered Alps (syn thetic, of courie).

But when you do, when you enter the village that stands for America’s part In this congress of villages of the world, it won’t be the America of everyday life that you know. For, as was the case in the English village, you’ll be transported back two centuries or more the moment you en ter the Colonial village. \ Dominating the village is the tall spire of Old North Church In whose belfry tower hung the lantern. (“One if by land and two if by sea”) which sent Paul Revere riding furiously north westward that April night nearly 160 years ago. Paul’s house-is there, too, as Is the old Massa chusetts state house. That IitUe building over there is the print shop of a young man named' Ben Franklin. In that house lives Betsey Ross, busy with her needle and thread on a new flag of Red and White and Blue—just such a flag as floats gently in the breezes from Lake Michigan at the top of the tall flag pole which stands1 Sn the middle of the village; Here is the House of Seven Gables, the Witches House, the Pirate Gaol, the Village Smithy (Yes, there’s a “spreading chestnut tree”), the ■ Pilgrim Settlement, a Colonial Kitchen ana a Wayside Inn. Over there is the-Governor’s Palace, the Virginia Tavern and Wakefield, ■ where George ' Washington was born. You walk across the Vil lage Green and mount the steps of Mount Vdr- non. You pass on through this stately mansion to the colonial gardens In the rear, then out into the blazing sunlight and noise of the MIdway.- You blink your eyes as though waking up from 1 a dream.

YOUNG P E O P L E AND A D U LT T O P IC— G eth sem an e. 1. Plotting the Death of Jesus (vv. 1-5). Jesus, with divine insight, predict ed not only the fact of his death but Its time and manner. He was hot taken by surprise since for this pre eminent purpose he came into the world (Heb. 2:14). He deliberately walked up to death. He knew that the Passover would find its fulfill ment In his death, for he was the anti- typical lamb -thereof. The Jewish au thorities In secret conclave were plot ting to silence his voice by putting him to death. It was the divine pur pose that he die. II. Mary of Bethany Anoints Jesus (w. 6-13). I- The place of the act (vv. 6, 7). This anointing occurred when Jesus was at meat in Simon's house. She brought a precious possession and lavished It upon her Master. 2. The indignation of the disciples (vv. 8, 9). The action of the disci ples ’ was in strange contrast with ^Mary’s lore. The real thing that hurt Judas was the loss of the, money for which the ointment might have been sold; not that he - cared for the poor (John 12:5, 6). 3. Mary defended by Christ (w. 10-13.) Jesus could not allow his most appreciative disciple to lie under this censure so he came to her rescue. In spite of their criticism, he had noth ing but the highest praise for her deed. As a result of Christ’s defense, Judas is so stingingly rebuked that he hastens away to betray his Lord. 4. The meaning of this act (vv. 12, 13). By sitting at Jesus’ feet in loving fellowship, she obtained a grasp of truth which none of the other disci ples had. She saw that his body was to be broken and that his precious life was to go out. She entered into fel lowship with his sufferings and the Joys of his resurrection. This she showed In* the symbolic act of lavish ing her most precious possession upon him. She:.did..lhis service in loving anticipation.' III. Jesus Betrayed (w. 14-30). 1. The bargain of betrayal (w. 14- 16). Satan had so complete a mas tery over Judas that he sold his Lord for the price of a slave (Exod. 21:32). 2. The betrayal announced (vv. 17- 30). This took place while they were eating the Passover. It may be that the reason for this announcement at this time was to afford Judas a last opportunity to repent. Jesus’ words, He that dippeth his hand with me In the- dish the same shall betray me,' revealed the darkness of this crime. IV. TheDiscipIesWarhed (vv. 31-35). This took place as they walked from the upper room to the Garden of Gethsemane. He plainly told them, 'AU ye shall be offended because of me this night,” quoting Zechariah 13:7 as proof. Peter vehemently protested that although all should forsake him, he would not. How little Peter 'knew of his weakness. His self-confidence was his snare. V. Jesus Praying (w. 36-46). 1. The place—the Garden of Geth semane (v. 36). Gethsemane means “oil press.” It was a place some three-quarters of a mile east of Jeru salem where oil was crushed out- of the olives. 2. His -companions (v. 37). Peter, James, and John, who had been with him on the Mount of Transfiguration, are permitted to go with him In'the deep shadow of the garden. 8. Jesus sorrowing even unto* death (w. 87, 38). The cause of his suffer ing was not primarily physical but spiritual. He was being made sin for us (H Cor. 5:21): - 4. The prayer itself (v. '39). “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me.” What was this cup? It was not a prayer to be de livered from the cross. The idea that he desired to escape from the cross and thus stop short all his redemptive work is not to be entertained. Re demption through the sacrifice of him self was the supreme purpose-of hi* coming into the world.- The holiness and perfection of Ms nature moved1 him to shrink from the mountain of sin which was . resting upon him. Though the cup was bitter he bowed In submission to the Father’s will. RELATIVES Invention Isn’t the only child born of Necessity. There’s that tough baby Wotk1-L os Angeles Times.

Con flagration in Chicago Stock Yards. By EDW ARD W. PIC K A R D <g> by W e stern N e w sp ap e r U nion. Co n s tito tto n a l government has been discarded by another Euro pean nation. In a bloodless coup d’etat the Bulgarian army took control of that country under a I l military dictatorship. ^ King Boris e ith e r IP «3 sponsored the move- ¥ flj ment or quietly yield-IS* P ed to it. He promptly signed about thirty decrees that were pre pared in advance, dis solving the parliament and putting the new i «1 g°vernmen^ *n power, with Kimon Guero- KIng Boris g^jeff as p re m ie r. Members of the former government and several other persons were ar rested. Not onl.v in Sofia, the capital, but throughout the country the mili tary leaders were in control of the situation and no disturbances were re ported except from that part of Mace donia that now belongs to Bulgaria. For years the Macedonians have been demanding their independence, and they do not approve of the Fascist government set up by the army. The program of the new govern ment was set forth In a long mani festo calling for the creation, of a dis ciplined, orderly state. The principal alterations in the structure of the gov ernment Include a sharply reduced membership in the legislature, which is to be under firm control of the administration, a reduction in num ber of the country's political sub divisions, a general weeding out of municipal and provincial authorities, and an Intensification of attention upon the interests of villages and rural regions. The new premier is a veteran sol dier and politician whose mild appear ance belies his firmness and activity. Behind Gueorguieff—some even call him the man behind the whole coup d’etat—is Damyan Velcheff, former head of the Bulgarian military acad emy. - ‘ Boris, the forty-year-old king, may be relegated to a position of compara tive unimportance, as was the king of Italy by Mussolini and his Fascists. But Boris is known as a good fighter and perhaps he can keep himself at the head of his people in fact as well as In name. W HILE the Paraguayans and the Bolivians were engaged in the big gest and most Important battle In tbe Cbaco war, with between 60,000 and 80,000 men on both sides, the League of Nations council at Geneva sent cables to 31 governments asking If they would put an arms embargo on the two nations. This action was taken after the council bad adopted a resolution favoring such an embargo' at the earliest possible moment, In accord with the message given the congress and the world by President Hoosevelt. The State department In Washington was pursuing conversa tions with Peru, Chile, Brazil and Ar gentina in the effort to bring an end to the bloody fighting In the Gran Chaco. Bolivian Minister Finot ob jected strongly to the proposed em bargo, asserting it would impose an injustice on Bolivia because Para guay has an arms and munitions fac tory and Bolivia has none. Good news came from IUo de Jan eiro, where representatives of Peru and Colombia reached a peaceful set tlement of' the differences between tbeir nations over the jungle border village of Leticia and thus dissipated a war cloud which has hung over South America for twenty months. wants a square deal and not a New Deal.” Governor Pincbot, who has tried twice before ,to get Into the senate, said he would continue to fight for the Interests of the people against concen trated wealth, and it was reported that he would run Independently in Novem ber. Joe Guffey, Democratic leader in Pennsylvania, easily won' his party’s nomination for the senate, but the Re publicans claim he will have small chance against Reed In the election. Ci-AKBNCE DARKOW’S report on the NRA, submitted some time ago to President, Roosevelt, has been made public, and in the main it was just what was expected from the Chicago lawyer and his colleagues. It analyzed eight of the more important codes and found that seven of them foster monopolies, help big business and do a lot toward putting small concerns out of business. These seven codes are: Electrical manufacturing, foot wear division, rubber manufacturing, motion pictures, retail solid fuel, steel, ice, and bituminous coal. The report found no monopolistic features In the cleaners and dyers' code. Administrator Johnson and his chief counsel; Donald R. Bichberg, had been given the report previously for the purpose of composing a reply to it This they did, to the extent of 50,000 vigorous words. They answered all the'Darrow charges and’asserted'the report was “superficial,” “intemperate,” “inaccurate,” “prejudiced,” “one sided,” “inconsistent,” “nonsensical,” “insup portable,” “false,” and “anarchistic.” SENATOR DAVID A. ItEED of Pennsylvania, fighting In the Re publican primaries for renomination, emerged from the hectic battle victo rious over his rival. Gov. Gifford Pinchot Eeed’s majority was in the neighborhood of 100,000, and long before all tbe returns were In Governor Pin- ch o t g av e up and wired his congratula tions to the senator. ' S in c e S e n a to r Reed, one of the Old Guard conservatives, has been an uorelent- Reed ing critic of the New Deal, and Gov ernor Pinchot a “progressive” Repub lican. has given his full support to President Roosevelt’s policies,; the re- ' suit of the primaries was balled with glee by opponents of the national ad ministration. Both the candidates made the New Deal the issue tn.tbei? campaign, and when the govertwf' was prevented by Illness from making speeches, Mrs. Pinchot took tbe stump and vigorously ' defended the Presi-= ' dent’s program^ of recovery. Notwith standing all this. Postmaster Farley said: “I do not regard the defeat of Goveraor Pilicliot M 8 Pew Deal test,” and Senator Joseph T. Robinson, Dem ocratic leader, took the same attitude. Senator OaQiel p.

Hurley [.V ITS battle with the NRA the Ford *■ company won first blood, obtaining from Justice J. W. Cox of the District of Columbia Supreme court temporary injunctions enjoining Secretary of the Interior Ickes and Secretary of Agri culture Wallace from rejecting bids of tbe Northwest Motor company for supplying Ford trucks to. their depart, ments. The orders -were based on the Ford agency’s complaints that the secre taries Imd refused its bids,;whlch were acknowledged to be lower than those of competitors, on the ground that no certificate had been filed by the Ford Motor company showing, that it was complying with the NRA code. PAT HURLEY, former secretary of war, appeared before the senate civil Bervice committee in a warlike mood and angrily demanded that there he a full exami nation of charges that he was party to a patronage plot hatched by Republicans at his home in Virginia. He declared that it should be determined whether the IJepartm ent of. Justice is out to smear all members of the preceding administra tion or whether A. V. Dalrymple, the special assistant attorney gen eral who made the charges, is “just an irresponsible falsifier in charge of the wooden pistol section of the. De partment of Justice.” Mr. Hurley bitterly criticized the de partment for permitting one of its officials, VVebster Spates, to read to the committee an anonymous, hither to confidential report entitled “the New Deal with the same old dealers." The report declared "the same old gang of standpat Republicans are gatekeepers to the patronage, pas tures.” - Mr. Dalrymple read to the commit tee letters from C. W. Broom and Lee Shannon, who told the Justice department assistant that persons whom they declined to name had in formed them of the meeting at Hur ley’s home, where prominent Repub licans were alleged to have planned how they could hold on to patronage jobs desplte^the change In administra tion. Dalrymple denied that he had ,made .the charges himself; ,; A PPROXIMATELT $8,000,000 dam- age was done by a conflagration In Chicago that was described as the worst that city had experienced since the great fire of 1871. It started In the Union Stock Yards, familiar to all visitors to the city, and within a few hours had swept over an area equivalent to about/eight city blocks. The flames also leaped across Halsted street, destroying many shops and res idences. Happily only one human life twas lost, though -th.e IiyuredtCmostlyl firemen, numbered some 1,100. As the stock pens were comparatively empty over, the week-end., the loss of live stock was restricted. AU the hot-ses were driven out to safety. . Among the buildings destroyed were the International Amphitheater, scene Of the IlTfi Stocli and horse shows; the famous Saddle and Slrlolnoluh and the Stock yards in«; two national banks, and the new and oid Exchange buildings occupied; by many, commis sion firms. The task of rebuilding was started at once, and it was announced that .the destroyed structures would be replaced by fireproof buildings. ; RECORD. Mo ck SVTLLEl Nz C CONGRESS held a joint session to observe the one hundredth anni versary of the death of General La fayette, and President Roosevelt was In attendance, carrying a sword pre sented to him recently by CpuntRenee de Cbadbrun, direct descendant of the famous French marquis. After the session tbe Presideht placed the sword beneath a portrait of Washington in the White House WtMle legislators, dip lomats, Supreme court -justices and cabinet members looked on. Andre de Laboulaye, French ambassador, spoke. DR. GEORGE F. ZOOK has re signed as United States commis sioner of education, effective July I, and President Roosevelt has designat ed John Ward Studebaker of Des Moines, Iowa, to succeed him.' Doctor Zook, who formerly was president of the University of -Akron, will become director of the American Council of Education In the fall. FOR more than thirty years the rad ical La Folletteites of Wisconsin have been operating as Republicans and under that labsl have competed, often with success, for control of the state. Now this is to be changed. With the aid of delegates from labor and farm or ganizations. the fol lowers of Senator La Follette, assem bled In convention In Fond du Lac, formed a new party and named it the Progressive party. Senator No statement of prin- La Follette cjp]es was ©ade, all attempts to bring one forth being squelched. Senator La Follette kept in the back ground until- questions of organiza tion were settled. With the party name decided, the senator. came into the picture with a prepared speech. The period called Republican pros perity, he said, had culminated in the collapse of the country’s economic life. “The disaster of 1929 and the acute distress and -suffering- of the American, people that followed were made pos sible by the betrayal of the people’s trust by men in both parties, con trolled through their party organiza tions by privileged interests.” John J. Handley, secretary of the Wisconsin Federation of Labor, told the delegates he was disappointed in the character of the conference. Speaking deliberately and carefully for organized labor he said he had hoped and expected the conference was to bring together all of the forces of liberal thought If it does not;: he said organized labor will not go along; A few hours later a state central committee was formed, with former Gov.. Philip La FoUette as its chair man, and in Milwaukee it began imapr ping out the campaign for the antumn congressional and state elections. % .K IN ORDER that congress may fad- - journ June 5, or at the latest by the middle of the month, the PresyentTand several congressional leaders got-to gether and pared .down the legislative, program. They agreed to limit tlie “must” bills to four measures. These are: The one billion three hundred mil- iion-dollar emergency appropriation bill carrying funds for the continuation of the New Deal relief activities; The communications control bill !.pro posing the consolidation of federal reg- ulation over all communications. Tlie loans to industries bill, author izing RFC and federal reserve bank advances to smaller industries on In termediate credit terms. The deposit insurance extension bill, continuing the temporary federal bank deposit guarantee plan for another year In lieu of putting the permanent program contained in the Glass bank ing bill into effect at this time. One other measure that may be put through at this session is the silver bill upon which the President and the silver bloc agreed and which was: to be Introduced with a message from Mr. Roosevelt. As predicted, this is a compromise containing these pro visions: . ’ A! declaration of policy that the gov ernment recognizes silver as primary money and that the nation's metallic reserves shall be 25 per cent silver and 75 per cent gold. This is manda tory. ' The secretary of the treasury is au thorized and directed to purchase’sil ver until it reaches $1.29 an ounce or until its metallic reserve strength reaches 25 per cent This Is both per missive and mandatory. ■ The President is authorized to, na tionalize-silver through condemnation. This i$’ pfermisslve.

In fact, I gather from ail Indications that the board's attacks were directly responsible for General Johnson's ac tion In releasing small businesses of certain kinds from responsibility un der the codes. The far-reaching con sequences of the board's criticisms can only be partially evaluated at this time, but the celerity of tbe Johnson action In meeting some of the charges by the board has led to more than a sprinkling of suggestions that it may be the beginning of tbe end for NRA. General Johnson explained, In re leasing tbe minor industries from the codes, that they constituted too small a part of the recovery program to war rant the expense and time involved in administering - those- codes. Of- course, he could not very well admit that NRA was a failure insofar as the “little fellows” are concerned, but nevertheless, there are plenty of ob servers In Washington who so con strued his statement. The interesting tbing.about It was that his announce ment was made public after the board’s report bad been sent to Presi dent Roosevelt and after tbe President had submitted the document to NRA for an analysis of the criticisms. The board was convinced after hear ing appeals for relief by a compara tively small number of. Individual busk nesses that some of the codes were hav ing the opposite, of the effect intended. Evidence which It 'gathered seemed to show that the “little fellows” In the business world, were being stifled by the larger units, and that was the very thing which President Roosevelt had hoped NRA would prevent It is to be remembered that the re view board never was wanted by Gen eral Johnson and the NRA supporters. Tbe board was the brain-child of sev eral senators and representatives who had received so many complaints from the 'VUttle fellows” that'tliey felt the .nrge to demand some means of review of NRA policies and codes. Its origin might be assumed to have caused tbe board, headed by Clarence Darrow of Chicago, to feel its mission was one of protection for the little fellow. Hav ing watched it operate as a hearing body. I think I can "say" its members tried -to maintain an open mind. On one occasion, I recall, the board did not mince words In telling the repre-, sentative of a small business .that be could expect no help from it until his own linen had been washed of chisel ing and sharp practice. ' 1 Thus, the board catapulted a hand ful of red hot coals into the political arena. Mr. Roosevelt dodged the first bombshell by sending the report to At torney General Cummings, to the Fed eral Trade commission and to Gen eral Johnson for wbat be called “an. analysis.” Newspaper correspondents 'thought they could analyze the thing, but they did not get the opportunity. Tbeir Discussion these days gives rise to the bought that they will be sitting arouiK awaiting a chance to “analyze’ it to j ie full extent of their powers when i iey do get hold of it -'PoIiical leaders among those op posed o NRA appear to be delighted with t e sudden turn of events. Any official criticism of NRA, they declare, will g re them license to voice their own v sws as well as to repeat what the of :ial agency had to say about that pipe of the administration’s pro gram. • • • As a tesult of the fresh outburst of trouble Ifor NRA,'I made a number I of -inquiries around B am eM NRA headquarters Connsed wfllch are contlnu- T . ously crowded with representatives of businesses who are seeking ti find obt what , to do.

If you are among those who would pick flaws in this or any other newspaper that tries to serve vou. yon should remeniler Bill Nye’s classic definition of a news paper, given as far back as '18 8 5 Here is Bill's appraisal. “The newspaper of today is a li brary, encyclopepia, a poem, a bi- goraphy, a history, a prophesy, a directory, a time table a romance, a cookbook,1 a guide, a horoscope, an art critic, a political resume a ground plan of the civilized world, a low- priced mnltum in parvo It is a sermon, a song, a circus, an obituary a picnic, a shipwreck a symphony in solid brevier a medley of life and death, a grand aggregation of man’s glory and bissbame. It is, in short, abird’seye view of all the magnani mity and meanness the joys and griefs, the births and deaths, the pride and poverty of the world and all for. two Cents-r-sometimes. Among others, it is a long felt want, a nine column paper in a five-col umn town, a lying sheet, a feeble effort, a financial problem, a totter ing wreck, a political tool, and a sheriff’s sale.” FRENCH FARMERS CHANGING ir v T % Time To Run.

Some Farming Facts and Figures F RANCE is figuring in the news in many ways these days. First we hear that its wine merchants are happy over the big business that they are doing with the U. Si A. Then we hear that Frenchmen are complaining that there will be few American tourists this summer because the franc has risen from around 4f* to almost 7f. If your geography is rusty, you may like to be reminded that France has 212,659 square miles, or 53,237 less than Texas. Its African colonies, however, are about 20 times as big as France itself. There are 5,500,000 farm owners in France, with the average farm con sisting of 24 acres. The French peasant is proverbi ally slow to change his habits, Asa result, many French farming meth ods have remained unchanged for generations. The two oxen in the picture above are drawing' a wooden plow similar to the plows used in Roman days. An example of the obstinacy of the French farmer was seen lately when the. French Gov ernment, knowing the importance of nitrate of soda in war, put a re striction upon imports to build up a synthetic nitrate industry in France. -The French farmers, tradition- bound, refused at first to believe that the synthetic nitrate of soda- gave as good results as the product which they had been using. Last month, however, an article in “The Fertilizer, Feeding Stuff and Farm Supplies Journal” (pub lished in London, England), said, that large-scale official tests in- France are finally convincing farm ers that the two kinds of nitrate give “practically identical results,” . a fact wide-awake Southern farm ers who use the American nitrate of soda made at Hopewell, Virginia, could have told them years ago! Forty per cent of rural France is farmed. Over 12,'000,000 acres are inwheat,8,500,000inoats,3,800,000 in vineyards and 3,500,000 in pota toes. Textiles, iron and steel are the big French industries.

The most firmly entrenched law in the United States is the prohibition law. It is one law that will never be repealed. If any one Would ever -BURgest that the prohibition law should be. repealed he would be lock ed up in the insane asylum. The whole nation would laugh him to scorn if he dared to even mention personal liberty. The prohibition law includes so many things and there are so many prohibitions in our law that to do away with the princi ple would be to destroy the very foundations of our present civiliza tion. Only a fool would advocate a repeal of our prohibition laws. On the other hand a civilization pro gresses there will be more and more items added to. our prohibition laws —and every one curtails personal liberty (or lincense)-is in force t- gainst murder, rape, theft, slander, polygamy, mailing obscence litera ture and an almost endless number of other items. A man is prohibited from erecting certain types of build ings on bis own property in congest ed centers of cities, he is prohibited from letting his dog and chickens run at large, be is prohibited, from allowing his children to work in the mill, he prohibited from keeping his own children out of school, he is prohibited from planting what he pleases m his own field. _ In fact that is a civilized land and m every civi hzed-land the prohibition laws pre vails. And yet in this civilized land we have heard men and women get up on their hmd legs and prate about, the iniquity of prohibition and the birthright of personal liberty. And the majority of people of the United States swallowed that stuff hook, line and sinker.'
