This is a question a- bout which many have written, and not a few have argued. Some as­ sert emphatically that it is always wrong, others that it is right, while others say that it depends upon con- djtions. Well, Is It Right? Right to do what? Here goes: Is It Right for Church members to play cards? Plain question! A child can^unde’? atand it._ No quibbling" here?- This writerdoes not claim infallibily of judgment, nor does the writer claim a wisdom relatively great. We know we have given this question much thought, and he has been constantly thrown face to face with the issue. This writer knows, however, that the Church in more than one, and, furthermore, he knows of cases of once active and and cow inactive church members, who were made so by some one moving into the com­ munity and organizing a card club. You know this to be true. You know this to be true. A church goer —has been all of life—said not long ago that some of nearby neighbors forfned the habit of coming in late oir Sundayeveriirigs — just about church time—and remaining for a friendly visit until after church hour. Then later on when they came, they not only stayed until after the church hour—depriving this Church goer of attending worship—but suggested a friendly game of cards. Right there, and then, this good Churchgoer re­ minded the nearby neighbor that ho such thing was going to happen at his house. Well, what happened? There was no more Sunday evening Church-hour visits, and the' loyal church-goer repaired to his Tegulari placein the evening service. Would? to God that we had more of such, who would not fear to say': ‘'Get thee behind me satan!” ‘"Weil, is it, right for a Christian to play cards? First of all, I would admit most cheerfully, that intrinsically there is nothing wrong about it. A game of cirds, in inself, is no more wrong than another game. A game can be played with cards or with checkers or chessmen. In themselves these games are morally on a par. Let this be freedly admitted. But at the same time this writer is not blind to the fact that from time im­ memorial the card game, has been a Gambler’s Game, and that you can­ not dissociate it from gambling You cannot by any manner of camou­ flage divorce from the minds of men the thought that the game is in a peculiar and unique disfavor. Cards occupy a percuiiar place in the mind of men. Millions declare card-play­ ing wrong. Don’t forget that! Itis not a question of whether I gamble or not. . I may not gamble, but if I play the game the world considers I have played a Gambler’s Game. It contiminates because of its associa­ tions, if its fails to otherwise de­ grade. A good and sweet girl may company with the bestial No mat­ ter how pure she is. she gets a bad name, and she can not make the world .believe in her. You know that' to be true! No guessing about thatl Her character may be good, but her reputation is ruined. She must consider not alone the purity of her soul, but also the world’s verdict. This writer has as much right to play cards as l.as any other man. But ifthis writer plays, the world condemns him. Even those who de­ fend card-playing as right will lose respect for him, yea, many of his own Church members. The society woman who ia at once a member of his congregation will be among the nnst uncompromising enemies. Card playing is just as right for me as for her. She knows that, but she con­ demns just the same. To her, as to all, the thing, is wrong. The writer is sure there is not an intelligent person anywhere who does not know that justly or unjustly the world brands as wrong the card-playing of church members, and that as a con­ sequence the practice degrades the Church and hurts the good cause of the Master. Why. this? Itis sim­ ply that they do not care enough a- bout the matter to QUIT. They lack p f lo v e fo r God the Church and its cause. That’s all. 0, the pity of it. They love their pleasure more than they love the great Church. They offer the old, old alibi, “it is wrong, but there are other things worse.” For some reason have never heard explained, there is something about playing cards that leads to gambling. Men will put up a five cent piece, to lend spice the game. Or they will put up big stakes and gamble fever­ ishly. Women naturally abhor the the word “gamble.” They will hot be guilty of‘such a heinous sin. Gam­ bling is ugly. It is a heinous sin Gambling is ugly. It is a sin of the sex of coarser fiber. Only callous man would gamble! To lend spice to her game she must adopt another plan. Never for all the gold in the world would she be party to so ne­ farious a thing as the creation of .a jack-pot. But the game is pro'sy when there is nothing at stake; so she porsues a different course. The gold is spent in the purchase ;of a vase or silver urn, or something else, Then the wrath of the gods beieg appeased, she plays with all her might and fervor for this trophy! It would be gambling if she played for money, but this vase or urn or that something else was purchased with money. What is difference? You won’t have to turn to a Phila­ delphia lawyer to find out.— She knows there is no difference. Gam­ bling is not sin alone, It Is a Crime And neither Christian nor nohrChris- tian has a right to. condone crime camouflage or in the open, on main* street or on the alley; engaged in by the “uppers” and' the “lowers.” when committed by those who sit in the scoffers seat or hurl a cynic’s ban In the sight of a Holy and AU Wise God, a spade is.a spade; a :ho9 is a hoe, and Jn simple.truth, sin -is sin. and crime is crime whenever found.- When will the Christian per-, pie ever quit such tom-foolery? Let it be remembered that one of these days those nimble nimble card-fing. ers will be cold and pulseless!! But some will say; “We play it for amusement and never gamble. There is never a penny at stake nor a golden urn offered as a prize; is this wrong?” It has already been said that the world is readv to criti- eiz", and the church i° brought into disrepute, as a consequence of card- playing by Church-members That alone is sufficient reason for refrain­ ing. The most out rageous.gamblers of today started out just this way— without a' penny at stake, or a gold­ en vase or urn offered as a prize. Yet, in utter selfishness or thought­ lessness, church membership will iirgetheirrightto play because it does not hurt them. If there were no weaker ones who might, and will be influenced by the fun game, per­ haps the story would be different A safe thing for one might be danger­ ous for another. This writer ia not afraid of the old house cat, but then the writer is not a mouse. The tendency of card-playing is down, not up; to license rather than toward law. Yet very few Church members play cards when they first come into-the church. They consider it wrong, but often they grow into it later. Then it follows. that it is either a spiritual height to which they have climbed, or a lower plare to which they have fallen or descend ed. No one, not even tne' most en­ thusiastic defender of card-playing, claims that it is a mark of growth in grace As a matter of fact, then, it indicates a drifting away from the spiritural. Are you a Christian? Then say: ‘ As a Christian I cannot play cards.” Say. again: “I will not be a party to tha down-fall of another. I dare not play.” And, say. again: “With. the help of God, I will strive to do that which would please my Master were he here in the flesh.” God bless vou in every endeavor to an­ swer: “What Would Jesus Do?” God saith; in. His Holy.Wjrd, “Ab­ stain from aH^ppearahce 'of evil ” I Thessalonians 5:22; again the Lord saith in I John 5:17 .v "A ll'unright- eiusness is sin;” and again in Jarnes 4:17 the Bible saith, “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sift.’’ Do you take The Record.; Davie Well Represented Boone, N. C., Sept. 19 - The Alumni Association of Appalachian State Teachers College has just completed a survey of the students iu attendance, and has classified the alumni of the college in pre­ paration for the annual Homecom ing Day to be held October 10 , 1936. Invitations are being mail­ ed.to all of the giaduates and plans are going forward rapidly toward completion for the entertainment of the three thousand visitors who are expected to attend the Horaecom ing game with Guilford College. The-Alumni Association has se cured Dr. George Sherrill as the speaker of the occasion. Pres. A. Ji Gteene has announced that the Alumni dinner will be served in Appalachian’s new cafeteria. . According to the survev, the following students are attending Appalachian State Teachers College from this county: Martha Furches, Farmington; Gannon Tolbert, Ad­ vance; Dwight Grubbs, Mocksville; Elteabeth Miller, Mocksville, R. 2 ; JentSie Peebles, Advance; James Stonestreet, Mocksville; James Wail, Mocksville.

The End In Sight. It was bordering on sacrilege in Charlotte Thursday when Franklin D. Roosevelt attempted to appro­ priate the 23rd Psalm to his own per­ sonal advantage and the advantages of the New Deal party. He opened his address by quoting “He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.” In linking the words of the great Psalmist to his own self he all but as­ sumes the role of a Demi-God. If Roosevelt was a Christian soldier it might be different but for a man who spends the Sabbath fishing, poker playing and otherwise cavorting a- round the country, a man who brought bactt to this country one of the greatest curves imaginable, the appropriation of the Bible seems the height of sacrilege.—Union Repub lican. A FooFs Paradise. Governor Landon has never profes sed to know much about oratory. But anv body who IistenB to him soon learns that he knows plenty about arithmetic. He knows, for example, that if you make $20 a week and spend $40 a week you go broke. He knows also, that if a govern­ ment “makes” five thousand million dollars a year and spends ten thous­ and million dollars a year, it goes broke.

Sure Body Marshal Ney’s “I am thouroughlv convinced that the body I saw exhumed in Third Creek Presbvterian cemetery near my old home at Barber’s Junction on M iv 3,1887. was really the remains of Marshall Ney of France.” asserted R N. Barber of Waynesville, while he was in Charlotte on business. Mr. Barber said he was a young b -y when the bones of Peter Stewart Ney were removed from the grave for examination nearly 50 years after b irial.- “Some of the t-eeth had fallen out and they were filled with gold and in perfect condition ” said Mr. Barber. “The men in charge pointed out that the skull and and bones were those of a heavy man, one of the power­ ful and rugged physique. “Doctor Loughenour of StateBvilIe put the skull, which had fallen into two pieces, together and made pic­ tures and a cast of it. “I remember examining the skull very well. On one side tne~e was a hole well above the ear, as if part of the skull had been cut away for tre­ panning. The bone was porous a- round that hole and looked as if it had decayed around a cut place in the bone The piece of the skull was missing and was never found, lending credence to the theory that this wa3 the skull of Marshal Ney of France, who was supposed to have had a silver trepan in his head. Everything was decomposed ex­ cept for the skull and bones and bits of the coffin that had been preserved around the brass corner plates and screws. The wood looked like cedar. ‘The bones were put back in the grave,{but I was not there when .they filled the grave 'agaitt and^dp' ufo placed:for reburial.” -. Mr. Barber Baid- some Statesville women grabbed up bits of Ney’s bones and were carrying them away as gruesome souvenirs, but they were stopped at the cemetery gate and made to return tbe bones. He said several thousand people gather­ ed for the exhuming of the body, the largest crowd he had ever seen up to that time. “I know that the men in charge of the exhumation 50 years ago firmly believed ‘that the Rowan schor] teacher was in reality Napoleon's great military genius and strategist1 Ur Barber said yesterday. “I have been convinced all my life that they were the same man. Nothing would please me more than for incontrover­ tible proof to be found that would establish Ney’s identity beyond the shadow of a doubt.”—Charlotte Ob server. Landon With His Gloves Off. In this great Buffalo speech. Governor Landon got right down to where most of the people live He dealt fundamentally and specifically with their material welfare and left the leaders of the admtnistraticn without adequate defense. He has found the spot where the New Deal is most vulnerable and his blows hurt. Nomanor woman who reads this Buffalo speech can longer accuse Landon of not being specific and with hot having a definite policy. Speeches like this will complete tbe rout of the New Dealers and they will bring victory to the Republican ticktet in November.— Toledo Blade. Republican Club at Un­ ion Grove. R. C.

FDR thinks he can square himself by running around. Hen. Wallace, who says be is a scientist, also says that by killing cff six million pigs made meat cheaper. So there may be a science about ly­ ing. The loudest preacher for reducing government expenses was Roosevelt. The greatest spender of government funds was Roosevelt. Put these things together if you dare. When recording the follies of the New Deal don’t forget to list the piecing of several thousand farmers on “cold storage” up in Alatki and the act to compel potato growers to stamp their spuds. Housewives are confronted with still higher prices for food. They can go to . the- markets' and', take- &. tTie re-election of the man who is re- •' spohsibie for the ruthless slaughter ' 0 ' six million American pigs. It is perfectly ridiculous to hear folks talking about the Democratic party. Why, bit ss your life. Brother there is no longer any Democratic pirtv. FDR didn’t mention the Democratic party at Philadelphia. S 1 Perkins, Qen Wallace and Rex Tugwell are no more Democrats than the Devil is an archangel. And they are shaping measures that bear no more resemblance to Democracy than the rings on a rarcoon’s tail do to the rings around the plant t Saturn. And they are going to put these alien measures m effect just so sure as the voters send FDR to the White House fur another term. Ths N hw Dealers would belittle G i\ern r LimJon by terming him a ‘ common man ” Bless Paddy, aren’t about 95 per cent of us just “com­ mon people-?” What could be more fitting at this juncture than for tbe “common people” to elect a ‘com­ mon man” for their President. Great God, haven’t we had enough of “Brain Trusters?” Just to show what sort of outland­ ish carryings on have been perpetrat­ ed by the New Daal understrappers, : we will ’ mention that three corpo­ rations in Hawaii, Porto Rico and Florida were paid approximately one million dollars each for not raising sugar. And of course these plutc- cratic corporations are howling theii heads off for the New Deal. Gcd deliver us from further guid­ ance by professional conomists. By following the advice of Roosevelt’s “Brain Trusters” we have arrived • nowhere. Billions of dollars wasted, more millioi s jutof work than when the administration started out and taxes climbing higher, every year.

Weheard one Mocksville mer­ chant say last week that he hoped it would rain all day Ioug every day of the Davie fair. We are glad that his hopes wasn’t fulfilled. We ex­ pect this same merchant hopes Roosevelt will be elected president next month. “Can a Democrat lawyer and po­ litician be saved,” is a question asked The Record by an enquirer. Sorry sir, but we cannot answer that question. We know of some few suoh men who will have to change a lot before the end comes if they are. Hon. Frank Knox, Republican vice-presidential nominee, will make three speeches in North Carolina Tuesday of next week, Oct. 13th. His first speech will be at Chapel Hill at 9:30 a. m., his second speech some time during the dav at Char­ lotte, and his third speech at Ashe­ ville that uight at 8 o’clock. Frank seems to be covering a lot of ter­ ritory tbese days. The Winston-Salem Journal thinks the people of Winston Salem should vote for Roosevelt because Jim Farley gave Lon Bolick and Allison James, two Twin-City pie hunters, a job at democratic head­ quarters in New York. Isn’t James the fellow who ran for Con­ gress in the recent democratic pri­ mary, and couldn’t carry his own county. The Journal must be glad that James and Bolick are no long­ er residents of Winston-Salem. Senator Smith, democrat, of South Carolina, says it is very doubtful about Roosevelt being re­ elected president. This is the same U. S. Senator who walked out of the democratic national convention at Philadelphia the past summer when the convention chairman call­ ed on a colored brother to lead in prayer. Mr. Smith is right when he says It is doubtful if Roosevelt will be elected. From present in­ dications be is going to be beat as bad as Herbert Hoover was in 1932 . Four years ago when the Literary Digest was taking a presidential poll, and the whole country was voting for Roosevelt instead of Hoover, all the democratic papers in this section applauded the Digest and said you could swear that their figures were Tight. Today when it seems that most of the states outside the solid South, are voting for Lan- don, these same democratic news­ papers are saying that you can’t depend on the Digest poll. Well, it all depends on whose ox is gored. The Digest has been taking these polls since 1912 , and up to this time they have been very accurate, only missing the actual returns by less than two per cent. Fair Exhibits Good. The exhibits at the Davie fair this year were very good. The cattle and the poultry exhibits were much larger than last year, and at­ tracted much attention. There was a scarcity of geese, turkeys, ducks, ginnieas, etc. It is hoped that more live stock, consisting of cattle, hotses, mules, sheep, hogs, etc. The farm and held exhibits this year were extra good, together with the school exhibits, fine can dies, cakes, buiscuits, butter, can ned goods, jellies, preserves, etc. Some of the, finest watermelons, pumpkins, tomatoes, hams, etc. ever grown In this section, were on display. AU who visited the fair were loud in their praise of the ex hibits The flowers were plentiful and beautiful, and added much to the attractive appearance of the large exhibition building. Pretty-Ugly Contest Winners. About 30 of Davie county’s pret­ tiest girls entered the pretty girl contest last Thursday afternoon at the Davie county fair. EditorBeII1 of the Union Republican, R. D. McGraw, manager of the Belk Stevens department store, an d Alonzo Bagby, of the Hine Bagby Co., acted as judges. After much deliberation, they finally awarded first prize of $5 . given by The Davie Record, to Miss Ruby Daniel, of Mocksville, and the second prize of $2 50 given by Sheriff C. C. Smoot, to Miss Dorothy Booe, of Coolee mee About 12 of Davie’s ugliest men eDtered the ugly men’s contest. The judges were Mesdames H. C. Meronev, J. A. Daniel and C. H. Tomlinson. The $2.50 given by The Record, was awarded to A. D. Wyatt, of Mocksville^ A large crowd assembled under the arbor to see this contest, which has become one of the leading at tractions of the fair. Sorry all of the young ladies and ugly men couldn’t have won. The Record wishes to thank the Winston-Salem business men who took time off from their business to come over and act as judges. Editor Bell Presented Prizes. Presentation of prizes to the best look­ ing girls in Daviecounty at the Fair the past week delivered by W. B. Bell Asso ciate Editor of the Union Republican, Winston-Salem. Editor Bell said: I have often heard it said that the pret­ tiest girls in the state lived in Davie coun­ ty and now I am no longer Irom Missouri I havs been shown. Seeing is believing I have seen and now believe. I have heard it said that some girts are born beauti­ ful, some achieve beauty and others have beauty thrust upon them. I do not sub­ scribe to this theory concerning the Davie county girls. All of them were born beau­ tiful, none of them had to have beauty thrust upon them neither did they have to achieve beauty bv the paint, rouge, lip­ stick and cosmetic route. Theysnlready have it. Just why. I an old bachelor in bis fifties was selected to judge in this beauty con­ test will remain one of the mysteries that will not be unfolded until the Judgment Day. It is true that I bave loved the girls, the beautiful girls, the glorious girls ever since I was a kid, but being of a bashful and retiring nature, not glib of tongue, a slow worker and a homelv somebody, I never made much progress and as a re­ sult I am left high and dry in that not too desirable kingdom, hated by the old maids and perhaps the widows, bachelordom. We had a difficult time in deciding on the prize winners in this contest and as I wanted to come back to Davie again some­ time I threw up my bands and told my two associates, both married men, to name the winning beauty. They bave decided that Miss Ruby Daniel is entitled to first prize and Miss Dorothy Booe to second prize. It I had mv way about it every one of you would win the prize for I never saw such a galaxy of beauty assembled to gether in any one place in my life. I thank you. Davie Fair A Success. The Seventh annual Davie county fair came to a close Friday night. Despite the heavy rains Tuesday night and Wednesday and the threat­ ening weather Thursday, the fair was a success in every way. At this time it is thought that the receipts will take care of all expenses with a small balance. Theattendance Wed­ nesday and Wednesday night was nill. A fairly good crowd was pre­ sent Thursday and Thursday even­ ing. Tbe crowd was not so large Friday, but the night crowd was the largest of the fair, about 3 OOO being present. The exhibits of cattle, poul­ try. grain, fruits, vegetables, fancy work, etc., were better than last year. We are printing a partial list of the winners.

M o n e y D e s tr o y e d When Uncle Sam’s paper mon­ ey becomes worn and badly soiled it is returned to the Treasury where it is destroyed and bright, new bills issued in its place. If all denominations were thorough­ ly mixed together before being tossed in the macerator each ton of money destroyed would contain approximately 590,000 one-dollar bills, 190,000 fives, 130,000- tens, 60,000 twenties, 20,000 twos and no more than 10,000 fifties and high­ er denominations, which proves that the larger denominations do not wear out so quickly. The twenties, fifties and larger denom­ inations do not circulate with nearly as much velocity as the ones; fives and even the tens.— Pathfinder Magazine. Something Amiss In going home from the party, if your wife says never a word, a man breaks the stillness with: "What inexcusable social error have I committed now?" Beware Coughs from common colds That Hang On No matter how many laedicinea you have tried for your cough, chest cold or bronchial irritation, you can set relief now with Creomiilsion. Serious trouble may be brewing and you cannot afford to take a chance with anything less than Creomul- £ion, which goes right to the seafe of the trouble to aid nature to soothe and heal the inflamed mem­branes as the germ-laden phlegm is loosened and expelled.Sven if other remedies have failed, don’t be discouraged, your druggist is authorized to guarantee Creomulsion and to refund your looney if you are not satisfied with results from the very first bottle.

Get them from any druggist GUNLOCK ranch SYNOPSIS Sleepy Cat. desert town of the Southwest, to celebrating the Fourth of July. Jane Van TambeL beautiful daughter of^Gua Van Taro- bel, bated -owner of * Gunlock ranch, has amved from the East for the first time. She watches the Frontier Day celebration in company with Doctor Carpy, crusty, tender-hearted friend of the community. Henry Sawdy of the Cir­cle Dot ranch, tricked in a fake horse race the day before by Dave McCrossen1 foreman at Gunlock, plans revenge. He enters BiH Denison, a handsome young Texas wrangler, in the rodeo which McCrossen js favored to win, and lays heavy bets on him. _ Unknown to the crowd, Denison is a champion horse- man. McCrosscn and the. young stranger,tie in the various events. Denison then drops a cigarette carelessly. Racing down the track full tilt, he picks up the cigarette. The ver­dict goes to Denison when McCrossen refuses to attempt the stunt. Entreated by the crowd, Denison agrees to perform another trick. Jane Van Tambel is asked for her bracelet and throws it on the track. Just as Denison rides to pick it up a yell from Barney Rebstock, a McCrossen henchman, scares the pony, near­ly costing the rider his life. Gun play is pre­vented by the intervention of Doctor Carpy. Back on Gunlock ranch, after two years in Chicago, because of her father’s illness, gets lost riding in the hills and meets Deni­son, now a neighbor, who guides her home. Not knowing her identity, he speaks bitterly of Van TambeL She tells McCrossen who brought her home and he denounces Denison as a cattle thief. Later she asks Doctor Oarpy why her father is unpoputar and he tells her it is because of Van Tambel’s ruthless and unscrupulous character. McCrossen tries to woo Jane, but is sharply rebuffed. Once again she loses her way in the hills and meets Den­ison. On impulse she gives him her bracelet for guiding her home. Their interest in each other growing, she reveals her identity to him. Jane is distressed to learn from Carpy that her father had wronged Denison. The Tex­an had worked at Gunlock as foreman and been promised a share in the‘profits. When he quit. Van Tambel reneged. In reprisal Denison has been running cattle off Gunlock ranch. Shamed and humiliated, Jane avoids Denison, but longs to see him. When at length they meet, he confesses his love. by Frank H. Spearman C opyright F ran k H - Spearm an W N U Service CHAPTER V—Continued — 9— “How is McCrossen coming on, doc­ tor?’’ asked Jane. “He’ll be up in a few days now. The infection is disappearing. How are you? You’re the one I’m interested in.” “Following orders like a lamb, doc­ tor. Don’t you see how brown I’m getting?” “Yes, outside. But what about in­ side? That’s where I want you to get brown. By the way, your friend Bill Denison was in to see me the other day. He’s been up north with the fire fighters—'way up on the Crazy Wom­ an at Jim Laramie’s ranch. Look here, girl,” he continued, “what are you do­ ing tomorrow? We are going to have a moose dinner. Ever eat moose? Come In and try it.” Jane hesitated, “Oh, I don't know—” “Gome - along. There’ll be ■ nobody else there, if that's what you’re afraid of?”. Sleepy Cat looked • deserted when Jane rode In next day. Jane asked McAlpin at the barn where all the men were. “Up north, fire fighting.” “Is it as bad as that?” “I never saw It so bad in the twenty years I’ve lived here and at Calabasasl They brought in a wagonload yester­ day of the worst burnt men I ever seen In my life. The hospital’s pretty near .full. Doc Carpy was there all night” Jane was for going home. She walked up to the hotel and talked with Puss,- -the housekeeper. “Don’t you go,” counseled Puss.- “If the doctor’s expecting to see you,- he’ll be all up­ set if you -don’t stay.” “But with all these men In the hos­ pital? I’d rather wait till he has a free day,” suggested Jane. The housekeeper laughed. “If you’, wait for a free day for the doctor, you’ll wait till Judgment day. And he might be busier then than he is now. There’s a preacher in town this week, baptizing folks down in the river. ’Cording to what he says, there’ll be a lot more Sleepy Cat fire fighters need­ ing help Judgment day than is needin’ it now. Come In here and take off your things.” When Jane sat down with the doctor In his private dining room for the moose dinner, he made light of the fire situation as well as of his labors. “All In the day’s work. Puss is an alarmist. She’s always telling me I’m working too hard.” Jane repeated the anecdote of the preacher and Puss’ application of it to the doctor himself on Judgment day. Carpy laughed. “That’s Panama she’s talking about. Puss is powerful afraid'of-him . .-.W ho is he? -Why,, a pretty good fellow—used to be an auctioneer and all-round gambler—got converted—preaches up and down the line from Medicine Bend to Sleepy Cat. But he volunteered for fire fighting. He’s one of the men got burnt yester­ day, and he’s up with the rest of ’em at the hospital. The ex-sheriff, Bill. Pardaloe, rode out to Gunlock two days later and con­ scripted the men to fight fire coming down the Crazy Woman and threaten­ ing Sleepy Cat. The quiet of that day and the next was like a calm before a storm. After supper Jane ordered her pony saddled and rode dear up to the summit of Gunlock Knob, where .she could see the • northera'-country for many ; miles-. When she reached the top she was sorry she had attempted the climb. The spectade was awe-inspiring, but terri­ fying. Far beyond the hills and all along the northern horizon she saw patches of dull, silent red, slowly rising and falling, at moments Increasing, and again subsiding. She fell asleep early, but after mid­ night she woke. The sky ,was fairly clear, and she could heart the;, wind singing in the pines about the ranch house. She was,, roused, from .her thoughts by the approaching clatter of galloping hoofs. Raising herself to support her head on her elbow, she listened. The clatter came nearer, the galloping faster. In a moment she heard a man pull his horse sharply up and spring from the saddle under her window. “Miss Jane!” he called. “Wake up, please!” . .. She knew the voice. “I’m awake, Bull. What is it?” “The boys are rldin’ In behind me.” “All of them?” “Everybody. They’ll be here Inside twenty minutes.” “What time is it, Bull?” “From the moon, about two o’clock. The boys’ll want somethin’ to eat. They’re ridin’ right .out again. I’ll call Quong.” “What’s the matter, Bull—what are they riding out again for?” “The fire has crossed the river,” CHAPTER VI Boll Page, the messenger of alarm, turnej in with Quong and Jane to make ready a hasty supper for the hun­ gry, welry men; MeCrossen was in command of the fire fighters and, at the head of the table, looked his part. As he rose from the supper table, his eyes were never brighter as he walked, smoky and cov­ ered with the marks of the day’s hard fight, but smiling and fresh, over to where Jane was standing; While Jane asked questions, HeCros- sen lighted a cigarette. “Not a bit of danger, Jane, to Gunlock—not while I can get out on the fire line, anyway. I’ve fought these infernal blazes all my life, and I don’t figure this one’s goin’ to beat me. The only thing that wor­ ries me, Jane, is to think of your bein’ here alone at home while we’re flre- fightin’.” “Of course, I can’t help some worry now, with the ranch threatened,” she returned thoughtfully. “Jane,” he said impressively, “you needn’t worry. I like to fight for a girl like you. While I’m able to raise an arm, Jane, I’ll be out there thlnkin’ of you.” His hands closed firmly on her shoulders. She shrugged them and edged un­ easily away, “Saddles, boys!” shouted McCrossen in his rich, hearty voice. “Look alive, there, everybody! Come over to where my horse is, Jane. I ■want you to sayogood-bye to us! Give the boys a word of cheer.” “Where are you going?” she asked. “Over the Divide- I want to do some backfirin’ north of the pastures. Come along, girl," he tnslsted, taking her arm firmly. AU at once he caught her in a vise- like grip of his arms and kissed her twice before she could escape. She slapped him indignantly and pushed him violently away. McCrossen laughed. “Slap me again, Jane; that was worth a string of slaps, girl. But why not take a little prac­ tice? You'd get to like it, same as I do I’! Toward the night of the second day, the fire crew straggled back to the ranch house, McCrosSen'at'their head. The store of beer prudently laid In from town was rapidly depleted—cir- circumstances seeming to forbid the re­ strictions that Jane usually imposed. Next morning, the sun rose hot and in an atmosphere without a breath of wind. Faces were brighter. But after breakfast, the mall carrier, Ignace, from the Reservation, on his way to town, brought disquieting news. A fire had broken out in the timber along the eastern boundary, and every buck had been called out to fight It. McCrossen listened carefully. “Which way was the wind, Ignace, when you left?”.... . . . . .. “From the east” “Hell’s bells,” exclaimed McCrossen, ‘just where we don’t want it." He questioned the carrier closely. The big ranch was now threatened on the southeast, and McCrossen started with the freshest of his men for the new danger point. In the afternoon Jane rode into town to order some supplies sent out While she was in .Rubido’s store, a white man from the Reservation came In. The clerk who waited on him asked him about the fires down his. way. “Not so good,” said the man. “A new one broke out this morning be­ tween the Reservation timber and Bill Denison’s ranch. Bill’s in getting men together now.” Jane, In another aisle and unob­ served, walked quietly outdoors and down the street for McAlpin’s livery barn. “Mose,” she said to the hostler on duty, “is Bill Denison In town?” “He is. His horse, Music, is here— Bill.rode In pretty fast, an’ I been rub- bin’ Music down. BiU says—” “Mose, I want to see Bill. Go up the street and see If you can find him. TeU him I want to see him and I’ll be -up at>the hotel. ' Half an hour ■ later-Jane^sitting- with the door open In Doctor Carpy’s office, off the hotel lobby, heard footsteps ap­ proaching and, turning, saw Denison. She rose quickly, extended her hand, took his without a greeting, and spoke rapidly and nervously. “I heard you were In town,”’she said, “and that you were in danger at the ranch I sup­ pose, for that matter, we aU are. But they said you were taking out men, and. I. wanted to see you, BUI, and ask •qrhaLwe-.cqpld do. to hqlp. Sou won’t take that amiss, I ’m sure.” “How could I take anything amiss from you?” “In a common danger,” she said, flushing, In some confusion and Inter­ rupting him. to hide it, “we .ought to help one another In the hills. W hat Is there I can do? W hat is the situation. Bill?” “Well, I suppose I might say, lt’p like the situation of a man with a loaded pistol pointed a t his bead,” he answered. “I’m all right as long as the gun doesn’t go off. The wind’s got its finger on the trigger; and you know how these hill winds are—blamed un­ certain when they get going—” “But what can we do at the ranch to help make you safe? Is there any­ thing, Bill? Anything to help?” Both were conscious of slight strain. Denison shuffled awkwardly. “Why, Miss Jane—” “Since when Miss Jane?” she asked with asperity. “I didn’t know—” he began. “Neither did I know. Bill. Now an­ swer my question. If you’re In dan­ ger, tell me what I can do.” “Have the boys keep a close eye on the two Reservation fires. If either of ’em. get around Gunlock Knob, it’ll be kind of bad for both ranches.” “Yes, but, Bill, how am I to know when or whether they do get around the Knob? How am I going to know whether you yourself need help?” She was beginning to realize that it was impossible to get anything but evasive generalities out of him. “Tell me this: If you need help from us, will you send me word? Right away?” He thought for a moment. “ITl send word over to you at the ranch house, Jane.” She could not escape the significance of his tone In uttering her name. But she kept her balance and spoke Stead7 ily: “Keep your promise, B ill; I shall bq waiting for the word when It comes.” Along the hill trail as Jane rode home the air was heavy with smoke drifting slowly up from the south. It was laden with the pungent smell of brush fire and acrid with the creosote of burned slashings from cut-over lands, on the Reservation. Reaching home, she was not sur­ prised to find everything there abnor­ mally quiet. McCrossen, with most of the men, was up In the hills. The sole exception to the general atmos­ pheric gloom was Quong. Nothing had yet daunted the busy China boy. When Jane dressed at daybreak and looked out, the wind had shifted and was blowing fresh from the south. McCrossen. and.- his men, were up betimes. He reported to jan e that they had checked the fire up toward the pass. He was In good spirits. Jane went to her breakfast feeling reassured. She was finishing her cof­ fee when Quong stuck his head through the kitchen door into the din­ ing room and said: “Man to seel” Jane walked to the front door and found a man on horseback. “W hat can I do for you?” "I’ve just come from Bill Denison’s. He says If you can spare a dozen men quick, he can, maybe, save his ranch buildings.” “Tell him I’ll do everything I can to get them over right away. W hat’s your name?” “Scott,-ma’m.” - Jane ran over to the corral, where McCrosasn w as closing the wire gate. “Bill Denison has sent a messenger over—” “I saw him,” Interjected McCrossen curtly. “—asking for help,” Jane went on rapidly. “If we can get a dozen men over to him quick, he can save his ranch buildings—” “A lot of gall, ain’t it, Bill Denison lookin’ to Gunlock for help?” “No m atter w hat differences there have been,” Insisted Jane firmly, “In the hills' we’re all going to stand to­ gether In a time like' this. Get the men together, Dave, and get over quick and do what you can.” McCrossen, drawing from his pocket a plug of tobacco, bit off a chunk “I don’t approve of th a t” “It’s not a question of your approv­ ing, Dave, I want you to go. Riaht off; now!” McCrossen was in no hurry. “Who’s goin’ to look after Gunlock U I go over to Bill Denison’s?” he asked regard, ing Jane sullenly. Jane was nobody’s fool on the dan­ ger of- the situation. “Dave,” she exclaimed, Impatientlv “you know the worst threat to us, with this wind, Is from the south. If tha Denison ranch burns we’re In danger ourselves. Wtil you saddle up quick and get over there with the boys?” she demanded. McCrossen made no move to go “i’ll tell you right now I’ve had a Iamned s.ght more experience In these-forest flree than you have. And I sav m .

S c i e n c e R e p o r t s N e w B o o n s t o M a n Chemists Approach Isolation of Life-Substance; Discover Arthritis Cure; New Friendly Virus of Shadow-World Brought to T ight H By WILLIAM C. UTLEY 0 C ^ n Z w e ,L f COrtin Uoday? What? Never heard of o i hope you have it, whether you know it or change I ^ d H T I your skin’s pigmentation would ■ “ d tb“ yon "” ld T heseTrrfltV ^trange hormone secreted by your suprarenal glands. S called the “av b V T l 0ldneyS and are important to what L eenl synrPbony of glands.” The cortin which they supply keeps various constituents of your blood-urea, potassium and sodium Jn their normal relationships. The exact chemical nature of cor- f — -------------- tin has long been unknown, and no " one has been able to give it to you if your suprarenal glands atro­ phied and ceased to produce it. The news aboiit cortin today is that the isolation of a crystalline compound closely resembling it, and perhaps opening up the way to isolation of cortin itself, was reported at the ninety-second meeting of the Amer­ ican Chemical society in Pitts­burgh. Discoveries Are Many. Only one of many fascinating dis­ coveries reported in one historic week by the chemical society and the Harvard Tercentenary at Cam­ bridge, Mass., was this. Among the hundreds of papers read, there was one telling of a substance which has relieved many test cases of arthritis, one of the most painful a discovery of a new virus which, instead of causing disease and death, actually destroys bacteria which are harmful to man; new revelations in diet which, it is claimed, are capable of building a race of supermen and superwomen; a new substance prepared from the Ag free which will destroy worms and parasites in human intestines, and many others. The crystalline that resemble cor­ tin was isolated by research work­ ers in the famous Mayo Brothers clinic at Rochester, Minn., and was presented to the chemical society by H. L. Mason, C. S. Meyers and E. C. Kendall. “The substance,” said their pa­ per, “is capable of maintaining the life of animals which have had the suprarenal glands removed. “It is hoped that its study will give an idea as to the action and the- chemical nature of cortin it­ self. . . . “The concentrates of cortin ob­ tained have very high activity. Ex­ ceedingly small amounts are potent. It is impossible to compare the new crystalline compound w ith these cortin concentrates. Quanti­ tatively it takes more of the crystal­ line compound to produce the same action, therefore the chemical struc­ ture cannot be indentical, but full knowledge of the nature of cortin is brought nearer.” Cure for Arthritis. Of immediate interest to thou­ sands of sufferers is the new drug for the treatment of arthritis, re­ ported to the chemical society by Dr. Herman -Seyijel, of Jersey .City, N. J. The report opened up some controversy between this society and the American Medical associa­ tion, which declared through its Dr. Karl Landstelner, once winner of the Nobel Peace prize for medi­ cine, and a figure at the Harvard Tercentenary. journal that Dr. Seydel’s announce­ ment had been “premature. The latter, however, scoffs at this and cites the success with which he has used the drug on many patients who had suffered from three months to 25 years.The substance is called a cal­ cium double salt of benzyl succinic and benzoic acids." Its application of the benzoate group of drugs is said to be entirely new from past uses, in that it “detoxifies", th e body'fluids or “humors.’.’ _ “Contrary to the revered belief that arthritis is of infectious origin, we preferred to consider it as caused by intestinal stasis (stagna­ tion), with an accompanying dis­ function of the liver and^gaUblad­ der which adversely affects the blood stream. ,“Thus we proceeded to remedy it by the treatment designed to better the body humors. We be­lieve that oiir procedure is sound therapeutically, as it shows itself successful clinically.” Dr. Seydel’s compound has for two years been carefully applied at the Jersey City Medical center. “In many cases," he said, “It was found that the compound gave pro­ gressive and definite relief of the three major symptoms of arthritis —Pain, fever and swelling. The swelling disappeared; the pain was alleviated or driven away entirely; “Professors Benjamin H. Robbins and Paul D. Lamson of Vanderbilt university showed that the latex from various fig trees contains a potent protein - cleaving enzyme which is capable of. digesting live ascaris worms. Finding Mysterious “Oje” “They found that such a latex was commonly used in Central and South America as a remedy for worm parasites in the. intestinal tract; that is, as an anthelmintic. The efficacy of such a latex against whip worm had been demonstrated in.Alabama by Fred C. Caldwell of the Rockefeller foundation in 1929. “Since none of the known anthel­mintics had proved satisfactory against whip worm, an investiga­ tion of fig tree latex was under­ taken about a year ago. It soon became apparent that this material was identical with the mysterious ‘oje’ previously obtained with such Andrew Mellon (center) accepts the American Chemical society’s bronze plague for “outstanding services in chemistry" from Chester G. Fisher (left). Richard E. Mellon is seen accepting a similar one in the name of his late father, R. B. Mellon. movement and renewed use of af­ fected parts were greatly improved or restored.” I The drug is a white, crystalline salt “of distinct odor and taste.” It is administered without other drugs. Into the Shadow World. Evidence of a queer “shadow world” of “creatures” which exist in a sort of twilight zone between living and non-living things was re­ ported at the Harvard Tercentenary by Dr. John Howard Northrop of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research. It is a world of viruses, some of which are deadly to man and others, according to Dr. North- rop’s discoveries, friendly. It is a virus which is believed to cause the dread infantile paraly­ sis, as well as the common cold. But the newly found virus is one which has the same power to de­ stroy bacteria as the bacteriophage which saved hundreds of lives dur­ ing the World war. A queer property of the virus is that it multiplies itself after the manner characteristic of life only when it is in the presence of bar- teria. With no living bacteria pres­ ent it “goes dead” again. Dr. W. M. Stanley, a colleague of Dr. Northrop,■= last year., was=, the first to isolate in crystalline from a tobacco virus which had the prop­ erty of seemingly taking life, vam­ pire-like, from living beings with which it was associated, but lapsing back into an inanimate state as soon as the living thing was taken away from it. Fig Sap Kills Worms. It was the opinion of the scien­ tists present at the meeting that Dr. Northrop’s discovery indicates a possibility that there may be more of these semi-beings in their twilight world who ■— or which — will further aid man in his battle for life against deadly bacteria. From the milky sap of the fig tree comes a substance which kills worms and parasites in - the intes­ tines of men, as reported to the American Chemical society by Dr. Alphone Walti, from the laborato­ ries of a manufacturer in Rahway, N. J. J ,Dr. Walti described the product, known as “ficin,” as a powerful, protein-cleaving enzyme in crystal­ line form. He said it was the first ever shown to destroy living cells. Science, heretofore, had believed that enzymes were without effect on living cells. He declared that ficui is the-first,protein-digesting enzyme to crystallize from. plant sources. Its stiory has a romantic “back-' ground.For many years certain native tribes of Central and South Amer­ica have been known by explorers and others familiar with them to have successfully used a mysterious healing substance, which they called “oie” as a specific for many dis-: eases. They attributed to it, with some justification, extraordinary therapeutic values. “In 1934,” Dr.Walti: continued, difficulty from Gentral'America.” ' Dr. Walti and his staff succeeded in . isolating the protein-cleaving •■•agent in its crystalline form. “Futher investigations of the en­ zyme are being carried out along various lines,” he said. “Crystal­ line ffcin is of the utmost scientific interest as it may help to elucidate the protein metabolism in plants as well as animals.” Diet May Build Super-Race. New discoveries in the field of diet which, if applied, may result in the production' of a race of super­ men and superwomen, and may succeed in eliminating idiots alto­ gether were reported to the chem­ ical society by Dr. E. P, Arm­ strong, president of the Association of British Chemical Manufacturers. He predicted a revolution in the methods of growing foodstuffs. “There is strong reason to be­ lieve,” said Dr. Armstrong, “that the finding of biochemistry and medicine will afford conclusive evi­ dence that freshness in food is of paramount importance to a nation, so that there will be a national out­ cry both for absolute maximum home production and for production of vegetables contiguous to the great cities.” Dr. Armstrong said' that science tomorrow must concern itself much more with the concern itself much and food it raises, declaring that the new science of food may even be able to change the mental nature of the people. “A trace of iodine may shift the balance from idiocy to sanity,” he said. He added that one of the great problems of to­ morrow is to find “what chem­ ical substances in food, if any, can give .intelligence, courage and alert­ ness to the inhabitants of a city. “Can we feed to produce nervous strength and-mental ^agility?” he asked. “At present it is more than doubt­ ful if chemical factors alone in the food are sufficient to achieve such ends, for we are biological and not physical entities,” Dr. Armstrong said. “All that can be said is that cer­ tain chemical elements assume our racial and individual peculiarities; they become fruly ourselves, where­ as other chemical substances only pass through the body. “Food is the first of a ll the weapons of preventive medicine, and it must be the function of the agriculturist in the near future to grow complete foods and not mere ■ market produce. Life is so, complex that, we: have forgotten. how entire­ly food is its foundation. “We have only recently learned that life depends upon the concur­ rent balanced interactions of a con­ siderable number of material agents in the food, some of them sub­ stances directly derived from the soil, others formed in the plant, all indispensable in some as yet un­ known way to health and some of them required only in the most mi- unte proportions. $ W estero Newspaper Unioo.

The conversion of Lydia and her gracious growth into usefulness as a Christian is in striking contrast with the experience that Paul had with the demon-possessed damsel (Acts 16:16-18). A satanic power of divination had made her profit­ able to unscrupulous men. Such men have not perished "from the earth, and there are still those who make merchandise of silly and sin. ful women. Paul commands the demon to come out of her and at once the issue is drawn. I. Christianity versus Crooked Business (Acts 16:22-24). As long as the missionaries were at the place of prayer and in the home of Lydia they were not dis­ turbed. But as soon as they touched the illegitimate gain of these “business” men who were making money from the misfortune of the poor damsel, bitter opposition arose. Cunningly combining the plea of false patriotism and anti-Semitism with the ever-potent argument that business was being hindered, they raised a hue and cry which re­ sulted in the beating and imprison­ ment of Paul and Silas (Acts 16:14. 2 1 ). We live in another century, but men are the same. Let the church and its members only go through the motions of formal service and present a powerless religious phi­ losophy, and the world will applaud and possibly support its activities. But let the pungent power of the gospel go out through its life and ministry, and deliver devil-pos­ sessed men and women, let its God-given grace expose the hypoc­ risy and wickedness of men and there .will.sopn -be.opposition., - H. Down, but not defeated (w . 25, 26). ,..Thej preachers, landed in jafl, beaten, bloody, and chained to the stocks. What a disgrace it would have been if they had come there because of their misdeeds. How ashamed we are when professed Christian leaders sin and fall into the hands of the law. But “Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake” (Matt. 5:10). Little wonder that they forgot their bruises and their chains and began to sing and pray, even at midnight. Note that “the prisoners were listening to them.” The words we speak, the songs we sing, our every action, speak either for God or against Him. “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” As they pray God speaks, chains fall away, prison doors open. Men can lock doors; God shakes them open. The jailer, cruel and bold when he put them into prison, but now in fear, is about to kill himself. But God has better thoughts con­ cerning him. Paul cries out, “Do thyself no harm” and he experi­ ences HI. Salvation' Instead of Snicidb (w . 27-34). Thank God for the earthquakes fn our lives which bring us to him. The jailer, being rightly exer­ cised by God’s dealings with him, asks the greatest and most im­ portant question that can ever come out of the heart of unregene- rate man—“What must I do to be saved?” Reader, have you asked this question? Then you, too, are ready for the answer, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” The closing'verses of our lesson present the personal testimony of Paul that he had surrendered IV. All for Christ (Phil. 3:7-14). AU was but loss to him compared with what he gained in Christ. We speak of surrendering aU for Christ, but as a matter of fact we lose only what is of no real value and make infinite gain. Paul, as are aU great foUowers of Jesus Christ, was a “one thing” man. AU that he had or was or hoped to be, every ounce of energy and love, went into his pressing “toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Independence of Opinions It is ea^y in; the; worid'to.liye after the world’s opinion; it is easy in soUtude to Uve after out own; but the great man is he who in'" the midst of the crowd keeps with per­ fect sweetness the independence of soUtude.—Ralph Waldo Emerson.

N e w s R e v i e w o f C u r r e n t E v e n t s t h e W o r l d O v e r League of Nations Assembly Seats Ethiopians—American Legion Elects Colmery Commander—Japanese Marines Occupy Part of Shanghai. By EDWARD W. PICKARD @ Western Newspaper Union. Haile Selassie HAILE SELASSIE couldn’t whip the Italians in the Ethiopian war, but the fugitive emperor won the battle of Geneva and put Benito Mus­ solini’s nose out of joint. After an ex­citing debate, the League of Nations assembly voted, 39 to 4, to seat the Ethiopian delega­ tion, now headed by the emperor’s Amer­ ican adviser. The negative votes were cast by Hungary, Austria and Albania, all under the thumb of Italy, and Ecuador. Ethi­ opia, Portugal and four other coun­ tries refrained from voting. Rather surprisingly Great Britain and France espoused the cause of Ethi­ opia, though it had been thought they considered the co-operation of Italy in the league of more impor­ tance than justice to the African realm. The heated debate was closed when Capt. Anthony Eden, British foreign minister, said: “Enough of this nonsense! There never has been any sufficient ground, to unseat the Ethiopian delegation.” The credentials committee in rec- Mnmending the action taken said it lpplied to the present session only. Its report asserted that certain doc­ uments which had been received by the members alleged that Ethiopian governmental authority has been set up in sections of Ethiopia not occu­ pied by the Italians. Seating of the Ethiopians made it certain that no Italian delegation would attend this session, and it was believed by many that Mussoli­ ni might withdraw formally from the league. It was a victory not only for Ethiopia but also for the smaller European powers, which felt that league submission to Italy would be disastrous to their own security. Sir Samuel Hoare, first lord of the British admiralty, added to Italian resentment against Great Britain by declaring in London that the British intended to maintain their suprem­ acy in the Mediterranean and would modernize and consolidate their na­ val, military and air defenses be­ tween Gibraltar and the Suez ca­ nal “in the light of recent experi­ ence.” Malta, he said, would re­ main the first and principal base of the British fleet in the Mediterrane­ an and would be strengthened to meet conditions. Work on Cyprus as a military, naval and air base is being hurried to make that island a complement to Malta. Sir Samuel asserted that the development of Italian air power has not endan­ gered the British position in the Mediterranean. fTP HREE members of the mari- time commission authorized in the closing days of the last congress were appointed by President Roose­ velt. They are: Rear Admiral Hen­ ry A. Wiley, U.S.N. retired; Rear Admiral Harry G. Hamlet, coast guard; George Landick, Jr., chief of the planning section of the pro­ curement division of the Treasury department. The commission will administer the ship subsidy measure act as a regulatory body in conduct of mer­ chant marine affairs, and operate generally in the nature of the inter­ state commerce commission. Harry W. Coltnery and bugle corps of Chicago won the drum corps tournament. Only about nine hundred surviv­ ors of the Union army were able to attend the G. A. R. encampment, and many believe it will be the last tc be held. The aged warriors, headed by Oley Nelson of Iowa, the national commander, began their proceedings with a service in Wash­ ington cathedral. The route of their parade was six blocks on Pennsyl­vania avenue, the scene of the grand review of the Union armies before President Andrew Johnson seventy- one years ago. C. H. WiUiams Ruhe of Pitts­ burgh, who ran away from home 72 years ago to join the Union army when he was only a lad of fifteen, today was unanimously elected to be commander-in-chief, and Madi­ son, Wis., was named as the en­ campment city for 1937. W. R. Hearst \T ETERANS of two great con- ' flicts, the World war and the Civil war, held their annual con­ ventions, the American Legion meeting in Cleve- land and the Cxrand Army of the Repub­ lic in Washington. The legion elected Harry W. Colmery, a lawyer of Topena1 Kan., as its nation­ al commander and awarded next year’s convention to New York city. Mayor La Guardia person- aUy led the Gotham delegation in the big parade. This delegation included an impressive display of police and fire department bands, motorcycle squads and' mounted officers. In its business sessions the legion adopted a resolution asking the United States government to with­draw its recognition of soviet Rus­ sia. Other resolutions approved called for a 90 per cent reduction in immigration quotas and deporta­ tion of aU aliens who are anarch­ ists, communists, or affiliated with the Third Internationale; the remov­ al from public relief roUs of aliens who have not applied for citizen­ ship; universal application of the fingerprinting system in this coun­ try, and an investigation of methods used in disseminating "subversive doctrines.” The' legion band championship was won by the Musicians’ post, No. 394, of St. Louis, Mo.; second place went to Franklin post band of Columbus, O., and third to Musi­ cians’ post of Los Angeles. The Commonwealth Edison post drum ASSERTIONS made by William Randolph Hearst and other op­ ponents of the New Deal that the President “passively accepts” the support of the Com- - ' ! munists have got under Mr. Roose­ velt’s skin. A state­ ment issued through Stephen T. Early, his s e c re ta ry , said: “My attention has been called to a c e r tain notorious newspaper owner to make it appear that the President pas­ sively accepts the support of alien organizations hostile to the Ameri­ can form of government. “Such articles are conceived In malice and born of political spite. They are deliberately framed to give a false impression, in other words to ‘frame’ the American people. “The President does not want and does not welcome the vote or sup­ port of any individual or group tak­ ing orders from alien sources. “This simple fact is, of course, ob­ vious. ' “The American people- will not permit their attention to'be diverted from real issues to fake issues which no patriotic, honorable, de­ cent citizen would purposely inject into American affairs.” Mr, Hearst, who was in Amster­ dam, promptly replied by cable, saying in part: “The President has issued a state­ ment through a secretary. He has not had the frankness to say to whom he refers in the statement . . . I think I am justified in as­ suming that I am the object of the itatement, and that I may cour­ teously endeavor to correct Mr. Roosevelt’s misstatements and to set him right . . . “Let me say that I have not stated at any time whether the President willingly or unwillingly received the support of the Karl Marx Socialists, the Frankfurter radicals, commu­ nists and anarchists, the Tugwell bolsheviks, and the Richberg rev­ olutionists which constitute the bulk of his following. “I have simply said and shown that he does receive the support of these enemies of the American sys­ tem of government, and that he has done his best to deserve the support of all such disturbing and destruc­tive elements.” P OUR Chinese gunmen in Shang- 1 hai killed one Japanese marine and wounded two others, and with7 in a few minutes a Japanese landi ing party more than 2,000 strong had occupied much of the Hongkew section of the international settle­ ment. The Japanese naval com­ mander declared martial law in that area and troops stopped buses and street cars in the search for the slayers. Tanks, armored cars, light artillery and machine gun squads poured through the streets and on into Chapei, the Chinese dis­ trict thait was the scene of furious fighting between the Japanese and the Chinese Nineteenth route army in 1932. Stirling Fessenden, American chairman of the international settle­ ment, was warned by Japanese of­ ficials to protect their nationals, and the White Russian volunteer regi­ ment and special police in the French quarter were hurriedly mobilized. Because of killings in Hankow and Pakhoi,. Japanese marines ..already had been landed in those cities. Transports- bearing reinforcements arrived from Japan. C ENATOR LA FOLLETTE’S sen- ate committee on civil liberties, investigating the activities of strike breakers, was told that a preacher was hired as a spy, girls did under­ cover work, picketers were scalded by live steam and strikers were electrocuted by secretly strung wires on company property. Wit­ nesses testified, also, that men who direct, crews of ex-convicts; pan­ handlers and . sluggers take a small fortune annually from industry to combat labor unrest. T OM K. SMITH of St. Louis, Mo., was elected president of the American Bankers association _s.t the convention in San'Francisco. Orval Adams of Salt Lake City was advanced to the first vice presiden­ cy, though it was said this was op­ posed by some because of his pro­ nounced anti-New Deal convictions. The executive council will select the meeting place for the 1937 con­ vention. Mexico City was the only one to make a bid for the choice. Resolutions reported by the com­ mittee and adopted called on gov­ ernmental divisions—national, state and local—to bring their expendi­ tures more definitely under control and return to balanced budgets, and recommended that chartering of new banks be limited rigidly to the economic needs of the nation. GEORGE P. JONES of Minne­ sota, who has been serving as a special assistant to the attorney general of the United States since 1934, has been made r judge of the federal district court for the Virgin Islands. This is a recess appoint­ ment by President Roosevelt and is subject to confirma­ tion by the senate. Mr. Jones planned to leave for St. Thomas about Octo­ ber I. He succeeds Judge Albert C.Levitt of Connecticut, who resigned August I because, as he alleged, the Department of the Interior in­ terfered with the processes of his court..The oath of office was admin­ istered to Mr. Jones in Washington by Ugo Carusi, executive assistant to Attorney General Cummings, in the presence of Mr. Cummings aind a number of other officials. CHIEFS of police of the United States and Canada, attending the convention of their international association in Kansas City, drew this picture of the typical Ameri­ can criminal of 1936: A lazy, vain, moderately educat­ ed city youth whose parents have separated; shielding his laziness and an inferiority complex behind a false bravado that leads him into crime; motivated by a desire to impress “the girl friend” with a flashy appearance of wealth. Chief William J. Quinn of San Francisco said the large majority of the 6,000 inmates of San Quentin prison are under twenty-four years of age and that-98 per cent of them come from broken homes. G. P. Jones SEVERAL columns of Spanish Fascists and Moorish legion­ naires were reported to be making a determined drive toward Madrid under the direction of General Franco, and the loyalists were fall­ ing back at the rate of five miles a day. The rebel garrison of the Alcazar in Toledo was still holding out though the government forces, after dynamiting part of the old fortress, made attacks with flaming gasoline. The defenders lost heavily but the survivors kept up their deadly ma­ chine gun fire and repulsed the charges of the loyalists. The American State department ordered the embassy in Madrid closed and warned all Americans still in the capital that they re­ mained at their own risk. The consulate at Malaga also was closed and the consul went to Gibraltar. IMMEDIATE action toward put­ ting in operation a two-fold crop insurance and drouth prevention program was called for by Presi­ dent Roosevelt. It is designed to guard the farmers and the consumers against the danger ,of food shortages or price collapses. Two com­ mittees were named to work out legisla­ tion to be asked of the. next congress. Mr. Roose velt named Secretary of M. L. Cooke Agriculture Henry A. Wallace chairman of a commit­ tee directed to “prepare a report and recommendations for legislation providing a plan of “all risk crop insurance,” and suggested that the system provide for payment of pre­ miums and insurance in commodi­ ties. This is in accord with Wal­ lace’s proposed plan under which farmers would put part of their crops of good years into a pool from which they could draw in lean years. It would serve, he believes, to keep surpluses from destroying the price structure in ,.good years and" provide an “insurance” against crop failures in other years.Morris L. Cooke, rural electrifica­ tion administrator, , ’was named chairman of another committee to draft recommendations for a per­manent land use program designed to avert drouth emergencies in the great plains area. S PECULATION concerning what part Al Smith would take in the Presidential campaign seems to be settled by the news that he will deliver several anti-Roosevelt ad­dresses, the first probably, in Carne­ gie hall in New York in October. He is reported to be making out his own program, and planning talks also in Massachusetts an! New Jer­ sey It is said neither the Republi­ can party nor the ,American Liberty leaaue will be sponsor for his a p. pearances. Until Mr. Smith an­ nounces his intentions it will not be known whether or not he will ad­ vocate the election of Governor Lan- don. N a t i o n a l T o p i c s I n t e r p r e t e d B y W I L L I A M B R U C K A r t NATIONAL PRESS! BLOG. WASHINGTON, p. C. Washington.—It has been exceed­ ingly interesting to watch the prog­ ress of the Demo-Campaign cratic and Repub- Issaea lican campaignc o m m i ttees in their efforts .to shape and join the issues upon which the electorate will choose the next occupant of the White House. There has been a tremendous amount of hauling and filling, each side coming forth with trial balloons in an effort to find out what it is that will attract the most interest among the voters and to de­ termine what 'particular matters af­ ford the best vehicle on which they can ride into office. From the beginning of this year, President Roosevelt has been trying to shape-his issue on the basis of a single question—whether the Ameri­ can people in dollars and cents are better off then they were when he took office. I think admittedly that if Mr. Roosevelt could force that question into the center of the stage and make it the real issue, he would have very little campaigning to do. But the trouble is Mr. Roosevelt has been unable to accomplish his purpose and no little credit for his threat to force a joinder of issues on this point is due to the Republi­ can leadership. The Republican managers simply will not be led Into that trap. Thus, we must look elsewhere to see what the real is­ sues are, or are likely to be, in this campaign decision. It has nearly always been true that the issues prominent early in the campaign have proved not to be the issues at ail near the end of a political battle. ,This year prom­ ises to be nor exception. Political leaders attempt to figure out the proposition upon which their oppo­ nents are most vulnerable and ob­ viously this figuring takes place in advance. It has to happen that way in order that methods of attack can be arranged in advance. The New Dealers thought they could smoke out the Republicans by shouting far and wide that the peo­ ple as a whole are better off than they were when Mr. Roosevelt took office. But, again, it i was a case where political strategy did not work. Even though many hundred: thousands of people are better off, the fact remains that there are some twenty million persons receiv­ ing relief in one form or another and the further fact remains that there are somewhere between nine million and ten million workers without jobs. Consequently, Mr. Roosevelt’s question whether people were better off in dollars and cents did not quite click. In the meantime, the Republicans have found what they believe to be a very vulnerable spot in the New Deal armor and they are shooting at it with machine-gun rapidity. This question, this spot, centers around taxation. The Republicans apparently thought at the start of the fight that Democratic waste of federal money and the vast debt that was piled up would force a re­ vulsion of feeling against New Deal- policies. So they started out on that campaign horse. But they found that the question of taxation over-shadowed the other, even though the taxation about which the Republicans are talking has been an offspring of the alleged waste of the party in power. * * * I doubt that the taxation issue would have been as important as it r-„ - is proving to be nrr in had not the New Strategy Dealers made a mistake in politi­ cal strategy. This mistake, it may be said in passing, illustrates how very minor things influence the ulti­ mate result in politics to a greater extent perhaps than in any other activity of American national life The mistake which.I refer to was made by Attorney General Cum­mings. The story of the circumstance chronologically is something like this: The Republicans from their headquarters in Chicago began call­ ing attention to increased tax bur­ dens in connection with their, ex­ posure of the increase of more than thirteen billion dollars in the c™ -JyI 8 dBb t- They Porated out how' if the Roosevelt administration had not wasted money, preparations would npt have to be made for rac­ ing the taxes and how, if this waste faad «ot occurred, tax increases which we already have had not have taken place d As a part of the demonstration of mcreased taxation the Repubhcans issued campaign hterature item bears so much tav ? .? tilings, - buying t h o ^ ^ g - oampaignlyiiteratoetrbyUtthe R - e h ■“ * been for «>e action o^Attomey General Cummings. The Attorney General made some public threats that he would seek to indict those who were responsible for distribu­ tion of this information, claiming that a federal law had been violat­ ed. Being attorney general; of the United States, any statement from him got wide distribution. But the Republicans, recognizing the potentialities of this situation, issued a challenge to Mr. Cum­ mings to proceed with his threat of indictments. Their publicity state-’ ment on the point was just as viru­ lent as that of any red-blooded American boy who says to his-play­ mate, “I dare you to!” Well, the rejoinder of the Repub­ licans rather put Mr. Cummings on the spot. I presume probably the threat and the resulting challenge still would have amounted to nothing except that the method employed by the Republicans capitalized on that threat by accusing the attor­ ney general of seeking to prevent free speech and to prohibit discus­ sion of campaign issues. If there is one thing that the American peo­ ple resent, it is any attempt by a governmental agency of whatever character it may be that seeks to stifle discussion. lHiey look upon it as a sign of dictatorship. Some­ where in their veins still courses the virus that overthrew King George in the birfh of this nation. That is why the Cummings threat is so important.* • • President Roosevelt announced the other day that he is preparing to start reorgani-Too Many zation of the fed- Agencies oral administra­ tive agencies. He said he had arrived at the conclu­ sion that such a course was neces­ sary because there has been over­ lapping in function and jurisdiction among the many agencies created by the New Deal. It is the second time that the President has pro­ posed reorganization of the govern­ mental units and his new announce­ ment promises to attract as much attention as did his original an­ nouncement which was made when he was a candidate during the 1932 presidential campaign. For a long time, it has been plain­ ly evident to observers in Washing­ ton that New Deal agencies were literally falling over one another- and that many of them were con­ stantly in conflict with others be­ cause the laws or executive orders, chiefly the executive orders, by which these, agencies were created, did not clarify their jurisdiction or their function. A good deal of this trouble ob­ viously had its origin in the haste that characterized the early efforts of the Roosevelt administration to establish machinery by which .prob­ lems of the depression could be solved or alleviated. It always hap­ pens that when governmental agen­ cies are created in such haste, ri­ diculous situations result. It was the case during the World war and it has been the case during the New Deal’s efforts to solve depression problems under the emergency pow­ ers granted by congress. The truth seems to be that there is more over­ lapping, more conflict, how than there was during the World war.*. * • I have known of numerous in­ stances where one agency, under mm w . authority given it much by Qle President, Confusion , has promulgated rules and regula­ tions having the force of law that did not conform to rules and regu­ lations-dealing with the same mat­ ters but coming from another unit of government. In addition, I have seen different interpretations placed on the ^ same statute or the same regulation by two different agencies. In consequence, the citizen whose business practices or personal af- fairs were touched by government edict found himself prohibited from doing a particular thing on the one hand and ordered to do it on the other. Thus, it would seem that it is high time for something .to be done about re-organization. ,It. would seem equally to be high time for elimina­ tion of some of ,the extra red tape of government which has been A nw aboVj 1116 Private lives of A frican citizens by the New Deal.

The number of employees In “emergency” agencies and other bureaus continue to show large in­ creases in spite of assurances by the New Deal that the country is ,coming out of the depression. Tlie addition of thousands of men and ,women to the Federal payrolls to Tecent months has turned general ■attention to the dangers in bu­ reaucracy. Bureaucracy, of course, •is government by bureaus rather •than by the American system of !government by three branches, the Legislative, Executive and Judicial. Thomas Jefferson expressed his 'opinion of bureaucracy as follows: “I am for a government vigorous­ ly frugal and simple—applying all the savings of the public revenue to the discharge of the national debt, and not for the multiplication of officers and salaries and merely to make partisans.” ; Mr. Roosevelt in his 1932 cam­ paign speeches seemed to be of similar mind. He said that “for ■three long years” he had been ,preaching that government costs ;too much. He said that if he were elected all useless offices and func­ tions would be abolished. “Bureaus iand bureaucrats have all been re­ gained at the expense of the taxpay­ er,” Mr.-,Roosevelt declared.Bureaus Are Multiplied. : Bureaus and bureaucrats under [the present Administration have in­ creased as never before in the coun­ try’s history. ! Facts about bureaucracy, as it [flourishes in the fourth year of the [Roosevelt Administration, are here [taken from the official New Deal ,records.! There were 260,772 more civil em- jployees in the executive branch of !the government at the end of the [fiscal year, June 30, 1936, than at 'the beginning of the Roosevelt Ad- I ministration. I There was an increase of 72,027 iin the employees of the ten Cabinet •Departments. > New agencies of a permanent !character created by the New Deal employed a total of 47,754. Employees of emergency agen­ cies and those operating under the works program, including special personnel assigned to regular de­ partments and boards, totalled 144,- (499. { Cost Is Heavy. ! There are in operation twenty- ifour new agencies of a permanent character and about a dozen emer- lgency and works program agencies. [There are, in addition, thirty- ■five regular departments and agen­ cies which existed prior to the [Roosevelt Administration.\ An increase of $50,000,000 in the !monthly payroll of the civil employ­ ees in the executive branch is shown [over the 1933 payroll. This is at [the rate of $600,000,000 increase a year, in addition to expense allow­ances. ! The number of civil officers and ,employees in the executive branch of the Federal government, on June •30, 1936, was 824,259. This was an 'increase of 260,772, or about 46 per ,cent, from the total on February 28, il933, of 563,487. • While there has been much talk Cf returning to the merit system in !hiring Federal employees, the Civil ■Service law still is being ignored to most instances. The thousands of newly-employed to the various bu­ reaus §re selected on the basis of their political connections, rather than on their fitness for toe jobs. But the rearing of a huge spoils system, while repugnant to Ameri­ can concepts, is only one of the evils of bureaucracy. The cost to taxpayers is enormous at a time when other burdens are draining the people’s resources.' Relief Muddled; Who's to Blame? Administration’s War on Employers Seen as Factor. Collection of Gas Tax [ Up $57,000,000 in ’35 , State and federal gasoline taxes reached an all time high of $789,- ;114,152 last year, according to of­ ficial figures obtained by the Amer- Iican Petroleum Industries Com­ mittee. This is approximately $54,- 000,000 more than was collected during the previous year. Qf the total, $616,851,671 was paid In state gasoline taxes, while the balance of . $172,262,481 went into the federal treasury as a result of the Ic per gallon gasoline tax. While gasoline taxes are posted .at filling stations they are hidden taxes to the respect that car-own- ers fail to realize the enormous ,totals being collected by State and [Federal governments. The car own­ er pays forty cents to taxes for !each dollar he spends for gasoline. (He pays six cents on every pack- (age of cigarettes. More than half iof the Federal tax collections were ,hidden in prices of goods last year. .Government waste and spending 'are responsible. i ■ . --------- — -- - - - - - - I Prices and Happiness. ' Amational advertiser has been us­ ing the following slogans: “Watch Costs!”, “Low Costs Mean Greater a;Savings!”, “Low Costs Mean Great- •er Pleasure!” That business organ lization apparently hasn't heard of [the New Deal theory th3t high !prices to the- consumer make for. !the abundant life. , - - President Roosevelt repeatedly has declared that the unemployment problem was at the bottom of the continued necessity for- huge ex­ penditures for relief. Let private enterprise absorb the unemployed, he says, and'relief expenditures will be slashed. Until that takes place spending will continue. The effort of the New Deal thus to place the blame for continued “emergency” conditions on indus­ try and trade, if successful, would give the Administration some sort of an excuse for the failure of the re­ covery and relief programs of the last four years. Expenditures for recovery and relief have been about $19,000,000,000 since the depression began. Yet there are still an esti­ mated 10 ,000,000 persons unem­ ployed, just as there were in the fall of 1933, soon after Mr. Roose­ velt took office. There were 22,000,- 000 persons dependent upon direct relief or work relief in March, 1936, —a greater number than _ were on the relief rolls in the Spring of 1935. .Millions Back At Work. An interesting recent disclosure is that as a matter of fact industry and trade actually have absorbed more than 5,000,000 unemployed since 1933. These figures made pub­ lic by the Department of Commerce are supported by a public statement by Secretary Perkins of the Labor Department. Miss Perkins has said further that “an appreciable num­ ber of manufacturing industries are employing more workers now than they did in 1929”. That year, it will be remembered was the boom year when employment was at its peak. Then why the criticism of the employers, big and little, who have done this hiring? The man on the street, confused by contradictory statements and statistics of the New Deal, has been asking the press of the country to explain why the Roosevelt Admini­ stration puts so many obstacles to the way of private enterprise and at the same time demands that it expand operations and employ more workers. Attacks On Bustoess Obstacles created by New Deal policies include the 1936 Tax Act which imposes a heavy penalty on businesses which are trying to build up a reserve of savings so that they may expand, hire more men and be prepared for a rainy day. A sec­ ond obstacle is the Government’s increasing competition with private enterprise, including banking, real estate and power and light compa­ nies. A third obstacle is the WPA policy of making made-work jobs and wages so attractive that great numbers of employable men and women refuse to go into jobs that are productive as well as useful. A fourth obstacle is the Agricultural Administration’s policy of restrict­ ing cultivation of millions of acres of good farm land, thus throwing hundreds of thousands of farm workers out of jobs. The cotton curtailment program alone threw Southern workers on relief in num­ bers estimated at from 1,000,000 to 2,000,000 persons. Those are only a few of the New Deal influences that are hindering rather than helping re-emplOyment. Economists point out that the pres­ ent Administration contributes largely to the whole relief emer­ gency. Its next step to the circle is to ask Congress for more billions. Where Are the 10,000,080? No figures have been assembled as to just how much'damage is done to private' enterprises when they are alp apparently included in a contemptuous classification as “eco nomic royalists.” Or when they are charged with having “forgot­ ten what the Constitution and the flag stand for.” Business men, how­ ever, including the little fellows as well as the big' ones, are asking if abusing them is a new method of inducing them to employ more workers—after 'they have already done a pretty good job of it to the face of New Deal interference. Meanwhile the question is being asked daily: “Where are these 10,- 000,000 unemployed?” After four years of experiment and expendi­ ture of billions for recovery and re­ lief the President to his latest fire­ side chat said he was allocating $2,500,000 for a study of the unem­ ployment problem. 'In the mean­ while about $2,500,000,000 will be spent to the present fiscal year to make work-relief jobs and to pro­ vide other relief. Inflation. Food prices are 40 per cent higher than they were to 1933. Cost of liv­ ing has gone up more than 19 per cent. Beneficiaries of insurance poli­ cies and holders of savings ac­ counts, if they were to realize on these assets today, would find there­ fore that the purchasing power of their dollar would be substantially reduced from 1933f figures. Infla­ tionary policies of the’present Ad­ ministration have contributed to re­ duction of purchasing power. MayNot Dig Up Ney Body. Salisbury—The Salisbury Post says plans for exhuming the body of Peter Stuar Ney to determine whether he and Marshal Michel Ney offFrauce were the same may be abandoued. Thenewspaperquoted C. W. Alli­ son, of Charlotte, who with Detec- tivejCbief Frank N. Littlejohn of Cbarlotte'bad announced plans for the exhumation; as saving “the opening of the grave is not necessary in view of information that has been received recently.” "The information proves beyond any doubt that the French soldier buried in Rowan county under the name of Peter Stuart Ney is the marshal, but it cannot bedivulged at present,” Allison was quoted as say­ ing. The enigma has been a subject of historical controversy since early in the nineteenth century. Historians agree a teacher who called himself Peter Stuart Nev landed at Charleston early in 1816 after the French marshal ostensibly had been executed in December, 1815. Somecontend, however, the execution was carried out while others claim it was faked and Mar shal Ney permitted to escape. Peter Stuart Ney, who drifted to North Carolina and taught school, was quoted as saying on his death­ bed in 1846, “I am marshal Ney of Prance.” Allison, the Post said, was “so convinced of his facts that he urged Salisbury, Charlotte, Statesville and Hickory to proceed with plans to erect a shrine in the form of a dupli­ cate of the wall against which Mar­ shal Ney supposedly was executed. The proposal, said to have been advanced by Clarence O. Kusster, of Charlotte, would involve expendi­ ture ol around $2 5 ,0 0 0 . Foreign Trade The Commerce and M arine Com­ mission of th'e American Bankers As­ sociation has made a report which shows that the foreign trade of the world for the year 1935 on the basis of its estimated physical volume was 78.9 per cent of the 1929 IeveL This was 2 .1 per cent above the volume of 1934 and is the highest since 1929. The gold values of world trade were much tower due to the lower commodity prices to January, 1936. The com­ bined index of 75 countries showed 35.7 per cent of the 1929 average. National Bank Growth Comptroller of the Currency O’Connor announced recently that total deposits of the 5,374 national banks in the United States on June 30, 1936, the date of the last call made for statem ents of condition, ag­ gregated $26,200,453,000. The figure is a new high record for national banks, exceeding by $1,340,998,000, or 5.39%, the amount reported as of March 4, 1936, the previous high rec­ ord. The current figures show also that deposits increased $3,682,207,000, or 16.35%, over the am ount reported as of June 29, 1935, the date of the corresponding call a year ago. Collection of Gas Tax Up $57,000,000 in ’35 State and federal gasoline taxes reached an all tim e high of $789,- 114,152 last year, according to of­ ficial figures obtained by the A m er­ ican Petroleum Industries Com­ m ittee.

Aping The New Deal One of the chief criticisms of Governor Landou by the New Deal spokesmen is »hat in principle he has been following them; that, in the parlace of the street, he has been "stealing their stuff.” It is to be hoped, therefore, that some of the spokesmen read Landon address at BufEalo and especially his enunciation of the four minciples of sound finance In enumerating these principles, the Kansas gover­ nor said: "Now, what are these principles/ In broadcast terms, there are four ot them. ‘‘The government must guatd and preserve its source of income. "The government must make sure that it gets a dollar’s worth for every dollar it. spends. "The government must not get in the habit of spending moie than it receives. "Finally, the government must prepare for the rainy day." "Certainly, in adopting these four principels, Landon is not pro posing to emulate the New Deal Guarding and preserving the source of income surely does not mean the destruction and curtailment of ag ricultural wealth nor the throwing open to the competition of Europe and Asia markets which have hith­ erto been held by the American producer on the farm and in the factory. Making sure that the government gets a dollar’s worth for every do} Iar it spends certainly euvisions neither the abandoned tree beltinofc the abandoned Quodd y, the Florida ship canal nor the $10,000 houses for the resettlement or indigent workers. Seeing to it that the government does not spend more than it re ceives does not provide for spend­ ing two dollars for every one taken in, for pushing the balancing of the budget further iuro the future. Preparing the government for a rainy day certainly does not take into consideration raising the na­ tional debt- to an all-time high of thirty-six billions. Lookingat the record of Kansas, with its reduced taxes and expen­ ditures and its balanced budget, it is a little difficult to make out where Landon has been aping, the New Deal. Certainly the four fi nancial principles outlined by him in his Buffalo speech as worthy of adoption have nothing in common with squandering this nation into prosperity.—'Jnion Republican. Chief Backs Landon. Washington, Sept. 28. - Attri­ buting broken promises to Presi­ dent Roosevelt, George N. Peek — former head of the AaA and of the export banks—announced tonight his support of Governor Laudon of Kansas for the presidency. "The Republican party and its candidate." he said, "have met squarely the issue of these broken promises by picking up the pro­ mises dishonored by Mr. Roosevelt and his administration and by pledging themselves to tbeir honest fulfillment ” Turning to the administration’s tariff trading policy. Peek said it had "prevented important sales of farm products” abroad and the State and Agriculture departments had ruled against farmers’ interests "in every instance.” Judge Given 4-Months. Raleigh.-Henry P. Earp, 33, election judge at the Auburn pre­ cinct in Wake County, pleaded guilty in Wake County Superior court to an indictment charging he perm itted “ g r o s s irregularities” in the July 4 primary’ and was sent­ enced to four mbntlis in prison and a $200 fine. ' • .■ NUMBER it Attention, Mr. Roosevelt Our message this week is brief, but it is to the point and we ask that the girls and their mothers read it. It is a copy of a letter and the answer that appeared on the Woman’s page of one of the Dailies. The column is conducted bv Barbara Van Dyke. Some of our young people and their parents think that the preachers are fana tics on some subjects—drinking, etc., but we give in this correspond­ ence the view expressed by the lay women in a secular paper. Read ind pouder. Dear Miss Van Dyke: I weni out with a fellow the other day that I had never been with before, but I knew a lot about • him. He wanted me to drink a cocktail, never had done so before, but he laughed at me and so I took one. Later another couple joined us and we had another. I must have been drunk for I knew I acted silly and talked and laughed and said things I wouldn’t have done usual­ ly. I am just' burned up, with shame. He said it was because' I wasn’t used to it but I’d soon get so if I kept drinking, that I could drink a dozen and be sober. He asked me to go out again, I said I would but don’t want to be­ cause I know he’ll want me to drink again and I don’t wan’t to. What shall I do?—Sober. Barbara’s answer deserves to Iivf and here it is: Our "First Lady" a year ago- in a radio talk told American girl they must '‘learn honr'much they-could drink." I should like to broad cast to the American girl that she must learn She Can.Not Drink Al AU with any certainty of safety to her moral or physical future A few years ago. we us.ed to have a word called “Sin" in rather fre­ quent use. It was a good vigorous word, though not popular. Girls were taught that it is a sin to drink, and few of tuem did. Now that it is no longer per uiitted to say it is a sin to drink, may I change it and say. it !=Dumb 10 drink? That is as mild a word as I can u*e. It is woise than dumb to do anything that;mav put you in a condition where you "will act silly” or even worse, as liquoi will certainly do if you take too much If you could stop with ,pne cock­ tail or one bottle of beer you might get by. But Whoever does? Jusi as in your case, "another couple came along and vou bad another,” so someone is always coming along or you decide the .first one -, was so good you must have two, and then the second call for a third. The result is that without ever intend­ ing it, you’re tight before you know it. The only safe thing to do is to say no to the first drink. There is no sale way to play with alcohol Too much may at any time lead you 10 do something you’ll regret all your life. Don’t’ foolishly pui yourself in a condition where you cannot control your own speech and actions. God warns us about strong drink, evon wine: "Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging; and whoso­ ever is deceived thereby is not wise.” Pr. 20 :1. "Who hath woe? Who hath sor­ row? Who hath contentions? Who hath babbling? Who bath wounds without cause? Who hatb redness of eves?’ They that tarry long ai the wine; they that go to seek mix ed wine.” Pr. 23:29 30 ' ... Woe unto hinivIhatpgiveth, his neighbor drink,;|that^puttest: thy bottle to him, xAnd ' makesfShim drunk also,” Hab1 2 :15. "Thieves, nor covetous.,’ nor reyiiers, nor extortioners, shall in­ herit the kingdon of God. ” -. I Cor. '6.10 . KellanB Against Roose­ velt. Clanence Budington Kelland, fa nious novelest and commentor, gives nine reasons why he cannot vote for Franklin Roosevelt. They are as follows: 1. He has broken his inaugu ral oath to preserve and defend the Constitution of the United States. 2. Because he has broken the pledges made by him to the politi cal party of which be is leader. 3 Because he has broken his word tu the citizens of the United States by imposing new and unrea sonahle taxes when he promised that no new taxes would be im­ posed. 4 . Because, since his inaugura tion, it has been his constant aim to divide the citizens ot America in­ to classes and to incide those sever al classes to War upon each other For selfish political ends be has broken up into self conscious class­ es a people which, more than any ^population in the world, has been indivisible; with a common ideal of Americanum; a common love ot country. 5 Because, knowingly, through his subordinates he has authorized the wholesale squandering of pub lie money for partisan purposes, so that large sections of our people have been debauched. 6. ; Because be has approved of vindictive reprisals against political ^opponents, and through the instru Iments of the government has ' sab |ected them to financial loiss .’and .’to. unjust disgrace in the public eye. • 7 . Because be has surrounded himself with unfit, untrustworthy advisers—fearing himself Io stand comparison with men of the first class who might have served him in his Cabinet. 8. Because by the burden of taxation which his wanton spend­ ing has laid upon his people, no de­ cent citizen can save enough from his earnings to make secure his old age. 9 . Because he seeks to destroy the United States we have known and loved; to abolish that opportu­ nity which is the birthright ot every American; to bring to an end that system of living which is the fruit ot the thought, the labor, the blood of a free and intelligent peo pie working together over a period of one bundled and fiftv years. Says Election Of FR Doubtful. Washington, Sept. 28 —Senator Smith, Democrat of South Caro lina, who walked out of the Demo cratic national convention protest­ ing the participation of negroes, re turned to the capital today, explain­ ing that he came to "look over the atmosphere.” After looking it over, he told newspapermen: "From all appearances the Nov ember election is in doubt.” "There arevsimply more Repub­ licans than Democrats in this coun try and many of the oig boys who swung to Roosevelt in 1932 are swinging back this year,” the vet' eran senator added. Smith’s visit to the capital was bis first since be left lhe Philadel phia convention Asked to comment on his stand in the presidential campaign, Smith said: ‘ I am a Democrat and I shall- upon and support the - principles of democracy and do all within my/ power "ip have real democracy 'pre­ vail.” - ’ . Smith said he may give bis “de finition of democracy.” later. Philadelphia, with more than I,- 800 OOO-people, is larger than any otherAmericancity except New York and Chicago. ~ “He Kept Us Out Of War” Bill Bailey, North Carolina Senator came to Winston-Salem one night the past week and made a speech to a civiq organization. Among other things he said "Europe may do as it pleases but the United States is not going to war.” . Balogney. In 1916 the same thing wan heard all over this, country. Woodrow Wilson was elected on’ the platform ‘He Kept Us Out of War.” His secretary of state, -William Jennings Bryan was going up and down the country preaching the same doctrine. The school children over the country were being taught to sing "I Didn’t Raise My Boy To Be A Soldier,” yet we all know as soon as Wilson was elected what happened. Bill Bailey’s mouth is no prayer book and if Roosevelt thinks he can hold the Dictator’s job in this coun­ try as Wilson thought he would be “King of the World,” this country will again be plunged into the blood­ iest war in history. We are publishing herewith a letter from an Alexarder citizen that ap­ peared recently in the Charlotte Ob server and which is a true statement: 'In the Observer of September 8, Miss Mary Winder Osborne, of Rich­ mond. writes in and tells of 'the im­ minent danger of our nation being drawn into another World War; and warns 'AU American mothers who do not want their sons in* another Euro­ pean brawl should think of this, and cast their votefor /President Roose­ velt this fall.’ “Remember the slogan in 1916, ‘Vote for Hughes and- • War’^and ‘Vote' for Wilson 'nnd Peaae^aBdi. again'Vote for Wilton, he kept us out of war.’ Mostof us remember what happened in a mnnth and two days after bis second inauguration, to be exact on April 6,1917, and what followed. So lets not start that hum bug again. ROMC DEAL, Stony Point, N. C. Franklin D. Roosevelt recently made a speech deploring war and said ‘ I hate war.” but if he thought by mixing up with the quarrels in Europe would place him another four years in the White House he would forget till about his hatred of war. By, the way wasn’t he the Assistant Sacretary of the Navy in the Wilson Administration that “kept us out of war?”—Ex. Landon Can Win. Disregarding all the issues be tween the two leading caudidates for the Presidency and looking at the quirstion from a statistical point of view, Alf Landon can win the greatest prize in the gift of man. the Presidency of the,United States, on November 3 » next, by carrying only 17 states. These 17 states would give him 266 electoral voter, exactly the number required to place him in the White House. They are Connecticut^ Delaware, Mainel NewHampshire. Vermont and Pennsylvania—all carried by Hoover .against Roosevelt in 1932 ; Illinois,- Indiana, Kansas, Ken­ tucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New’ York, Ohio, and West' Virginia—rail states in which Roosevelt’s majority was Itss than 60 per cent. . ■ Statistics have no necessary re­ lation to the beliefs of citizens and tHeir manner of voting, but ’ they do indicate that the race is far from the walk-over painted bv the flam­ boyant Mr. Farley.—Ex. -----------------v 1 ■ 1 Honest Man. ; Winston Salem.—A man now nearly 70 years old walked into a store here ’ and paid C. 0.

The Record believes this would be a good idea, as it generally rains at least one day during fair week. It sounds fnr.nv to ris when we hear the rinse democrats cussing Al Smith. This same crowd worship ped Al in 192 ?.. and said he was the greatest mar. in the country. Thev ran ot-er etch other its voting f°T Al, and now it seems that they should at !east remain very quiet. The RepnMicans opened tfceir campaign at Chsshire’s school hotise in Caiahnln toxr.ship last Uednes day night, and were greeted by a large audience. Thenomineeswere at Cook’s fcrool house Thursday night, Oavie Academy Friday night and McCtilloh’s park Saturday night. Several prominent speakers from oat of the connSy will speak at different places in the cor.nty before the election. President Roosevelt shouldn't be held responsible Ior all the silly things Tugwell, Hopkins, Farley and other democratic leaders say and do. Franklin has made many mistakes during the past four years and he has also done some good things. AbQiU the worst thing he helped to do was to turn liquor loose in this country, and the next was to hire a bunch of college professors to tell him how the country should be run. In spite of all the mistakes that have been made, the good old TJ. S. A. is still the best country on God’s green earth. Thousands of good democrats in North Carolina are not going to vote for Clyde Hoey for governor. Many think if Hoey is elected he will be a figurehead, and that Max Gardner will run the state from Washington. We beard a state of ficer intimate as much one day recently. If Clyde is the kind of fellow that Sandy Grabam and Dr McDonald said he was last summer, then he isn’t the man to place at the head of the greatest state in the Union. We suppose these gentle­ men knew Whnt they were talking about. The Literary Digest presidential poll shows that Landon is leading Roosevelt iu 27 stales, and Roose­ velt leading Landon in 13 states. A million and a quarter votes have been tabulated in this poll The solid South remains solid, with Roosevelt leading in New Mexico and Utah. The New England states, together with New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and practically all of the middle west states, give Landon a lead of from 4 to 3 to 3 to i over Roosevelt. Many things can happen in the next three weeks. Jim Farley says Roosevelt will carry 42 of the 48 states, while John Hamilton says Landon will carry at least 40 of the 48 states. We believe both of these boys have been drinking hard cider. The former friends of Franklin Roosevelt seeni to be fleeing from him !ike rats from a sinking sliip. Amoug the big ones who are now trying to defeat him ar» James Reid, Thomas Dixon, George Peake, Governor Ely, Alfred Smith and many others Broken promises seems to be tba trouble. It is easy to promise anything and everything during a campaign, but it is some times hard to ieep these promises. Mt. Roosevelt promised the people four years ago, if elected, that he ■would reduce government expendi­ tures, balance fbe budget, put all the tmemploved back to work, and tarn off a few thousand govern meut employees and legalize the sale of liquor He kept the last promise regarding liquor, but seems to have forgotten all t he others. If we.weije running tor president we wouldn’t promise anybody anythisjg. Harmony Happenings.

It is rumored that the colored folks spent a very hilarious Sunday afternoon at the Piney Grove col­ ored church between Harmony and County Line. The annual revival meeting started off with a bang.

Spearman WNU Service SYNOPSIS Sleepy Cat, desert town of the Southwest, is cclebrafinff the fourth of July, June Van Tambel, beautiful daughter of Gus Van Tam- bcl, hated owner of Gunlock ranch, has arrived from the East for the first time. She watches the Frontier Day celebration in company with Doctor Carpy, crusty, tender-hearted friend of the community. Henry Sawdy of the Cir­cle Dot ranch, tricked in a fake horse race the day before- by Dave McCrossen, foreman at Gunlock, plans revenge. ,He enters Bill Denison, a handsome young Texas wrangler, in the rodeo which McCrosscn is favored to win, and lays heavy bets on him. Unknown to the crowd. Denison is a champion hoise- man. McCrossen and the young stranger tie In the various events. Denison then drops a cigarette carelessly. Bacing down the track full tilt, he picks up the cigarette. The ver­dict goes to Denison when McCrossen refuses to attempt the stunt. Entreated by the crowd, Denison agrees to perform another trick. Jane Van Tambel is asked for her bracelet and throws it on the track. Just as Denison rides to pick it up a yell from Rarney Rebstock, a McCrossen henchman, scares the pony, near­ly costing the rider his life. Gun play is pre­vented by the intervention of Doctor Carpy. Back on Gunlock ranch, after two years in Chicago, because of her father’s illness, Jane gets lost riding in the hills and meets Deni­son, now a neighbor, who guides her home. Not knowing Jicr identity, he speaks bitterly of Van Tambel. She tells McCrossen who brought her home and he denounces Denison as a cattle thief. Later she asks Doctor Carpy why her father is unpopular and he tells her it is because of Van TambeFs ruthless and unscrupulous character. McCrossen tries to woo Jane, but is sharply rebuffed. Once again she loses her way in the hills and meets Den­ison. On impulse she gives him her bracelet for guiding her home. Their interest in each other growing, she reveals her identity to him. Jane is distressed to‘-learn from Carpy that her father had wronged Denison. The Tex­an Iiad worked at Gunlock as foreman and been promised a share in the profits. When he quit. Van Tambel reneged. In reprisal Denison has been running cattle off Gunlock ranch. Shamed and humiliated. Jane avoids Denison, but longs to see him. When at length they meet, he confesses his love. Forest fires sweep the area, endangering the ranches. Jane sends cowhands from Gunlock to aid Denison. When McCrossen refuses to help, she discharges him. C H A P T E R V I-C o n tin u e d -10 - Halt a dozen cowboys had edged up to listen to the controversy. Jane whirled around to them. “Boys,” she said, speaking In lower but very de­ termined tones, “take no more orders from Dave McCrossen. lie's no longer foreman here.” Reeling off her words rapidly and firmly, Jane explained the situation to her growing, circle of listeners. “Now I have discharged McCrossen,” she said In conclusion, “and I want all of you boys who are loyal to me to ride with me over to the fire line on the Denison ranch and see what we can do to save his buildings. Those of yon who will go, line up here with me.” One of tl-.e boys, Bull Page, stepped promptly to Jane’s side. Before he reached It, four more were on their way. Barney Rebstock and a crony stood still. It meant that they sided with the foreman. “Now, Bull,” she added snappily, “hunt up as many of the other boys as you can find and let’s get going.” Within a few minutes, with the ponies dancing and the men shouting, a party of ten headed south for the Denison ranch. Not until they reached the last crest of the liills separating the two ranches and Jane looked over on the lowlands of the smaller ranch, did she catch her breath in sudden fear. In the distance she saw a formidable wall of white smoke billowing into the sky above the timber along the border of the reser­ vation. In the nearer distance lay Denison’s buildings. Between the two points a second fire burned, curving like a great scimitar along the cut-over lands sur­ rounding the ranch. "Bull!” she called fearfully to her nearest cowboy. “What does it all mean—is there anything that can be savedi” “Why, I can see where they’ve been back-fliin’. Can’t tell much about it till we get closter. Come on, boys! Push ’em over the hill. If this is too fast for you, miss,” he yelled, “follow us!” But nothing was too fast for Jane. The city girl was always on their heels. \yith the ponies In a lather, the Gun- lock crew pulled up short before the ranch-house corral, where a party of fire fighters just from town were starting for the front. Henry Sawdy, smoked and scorched, was guiding them out Bill Pardaloe headed the town men. In the bunch were the evangelist preacher, Big Bill Hayes, alias Panama; the liveryman, McAl- pin; Spotts, the bald-headed and pro­ fane barber; Selwood, the cattleman, with half a dozen of his men; JIm Laramie, from away up in the Crazy Woman country, with a bunch of his cowboys. jane saw a man riding up from the creek, but it did not look to her' like Bill Denison. Not until he drew near and lifted his bat hastily to her as he rode over to talk to Pardaloe, did 9 he realize it was he. As rapidly as possible he greeted the newcomers, told them where they were most needed, pointed and started them on their way, and turned to Jane. The boys, including Jane’s contin­ gent, dashed off with much shouting and yelling. Conspicuous among them rode the evangelist preacher, Panama, his heavy, straight black hair dancing up and down under his sombrero, and with him rode his neophyte, the bald and profane Jake Spotts. “Oh, Bill I” exclaimed Jane, as Deni­ son rode up, “I’m so sorry.” “I hope I didn’t stir things up over there, by sending that message. I shouldn’t have done It, only—I prom­ ised,” he said In a dry, cracked voice. “Don’t think about the small things, Bill. You should have sent long ago. I brought all the men I could.” “McCrossen refused to come?" “He was kind of mean—so I came myself—I hope I’ll do for a substi­ tute?” His answering smile was joyful. “It was too good of you to come, Jane. But now I’ve got to ride right out again. Would you step into the cabin and rest up before you ride back?” “Ride back? Yes, but who’s going to cook for all these men? I’m going back to get Quong and bring him over in the chuck wagon and take posses­ sion here.” Noon passed before Jane got back to Denison’s and installed lierself with Quong in the kitchen. ■ One man, severely burned, came In from the front towards dark. Carpy could not be reached till morning. Jane bandaged the man’s arms and fed him. Denison rode in late, smoked and scorched anew, but tireless. “Bill,” she asked, sitting down op­ posite him, “tell me honestly: are you holding it?” “Jane, to tell the truth, I don’t know. Sometimes I think we . are— sometimes it looks bad. In a forest fire, every hour must tell Its own story; that’s about the size of i t ” It was late when they walked out of doors together. The southern sky was angry red. “It'll be a hard day tomorrow, Bill,’*' said Jane. “There’s 2 Afterward He Sat Down Beside Jane on the Bench Outside the Door. nothing more I can do here, tonight I’m going home. I’ll be back by day­ light In the morning. You go to bed. You must be dead.” ' “I’ll ride over along with you, Jane." “No, you will not.” “But, Jane, you’re not going to de­ prive me of riding home with you?” “Yes, I am.” “Oh, please!” He pleaded with her like a boy. “I’ve been counting on it all day—” ‘I thought you’d been fire-fighting all day.” I “Fighting fire and thinking about you and saying, ‘Tonight I’ll ride home with jane.’ Oh, girl! If you knew what that means.” Bull Page stood by the ponies. Den­ ison saddled his own, and Jane and her escort set out for Gunlock. They did not ride fast. There was so much to talk over. Both were se­ rious. Denison knew better than Jane how grave the danger was both to him­ self and to her. But he had his hour with the woman he loved, and for that hour what else in the world mattered? “Oh, Bill,” protested Jane, faintly, sick at heart with the happiness of listening to his words. “Don't! You mustn’t say such things. I won’t lis­ ten to you, Bill. Tm nothing but a girl, and you’re making me a goddess or a fairy—stop such nonsense. Not one word more, Bill Denison. If you keep on, I’ll break out crying. Here’s the house, anyway. Good nigh.t. I’ll be over in the morning at daylight. Think well of me, Bill. I always shall of you!” Every available man was out on the front lines when Jane reached the threatened ranch after daybreak. Quong kept the little stove in the kitchen Kot, and Jape, busy about the cabin and looking after the boy burned . the day before, did not realize, how fast the morning was going, until Carpy ar­ rived from town to dress: the lad’s burns. He greeted Jane and, with her to help, went to work on his patient Afterward he sat down beside Jane on the bench outside the door. ‘So,” said he, “you’re playing good Samaritan. How are you holding out over at Gunlock?” “All right.; the danger is';'all from this way. If we can hold the fire .over here, it’s not likely to bother us. Oh, doctor,” exclaimed Jane, springing to her feet, “what does that mean?” Biding out of the woods south <>s the ranch house, she saw a party of men slowly advancing. Doctor Carpy’s eyes were more practiced. “Some one hurt,” he said tersely. Jane was in a flutter. “Keep cool,” admonished Carpy as he rose. “We’ll soon know what it’s all about.” Riding between two-men, supporting him on- his pony, a third man riding behind the trio, Carpy-saw the injured man, hatless and costless, and heard him suppress an occasional groan. Carpy walked forward to greet the party. “Well, boys,” he asked, “who is it this time?” Jim Laramie answered. “Why, doc, it’s Jake Spottd. There’s been a bad accident. Jake and Panama got cut off up by the pass. Stayed too long. I’m glad you’re here, doe; he’s hurt pretty bad.” “No!” screamed Spotts, so blackened and burned as to be unrecognizable, and writhing in pain, “it ain’t me, doc; It’s Panam a! Damn it—go back, boys, and get Panama. I tell you, go back!” “Denison has gone to get him, doc,” explained Laramie. “Keep quiet, Jake, you only make your, leg worse. It’s his leg, doc.” Carpy motioned. “Bring him into the cabin.” The unfortunate barber, eased, with many groans, off the pony, was laid on the dinner table, asking for water and half deliriously, calling for Pan­ ama. Carpy examined Spotts. He found to his relief that the man was not seriously burned. “It’s his left leg,” explained Carpy a little later to the group; “broke down near the ankle.” “Doc,” moaned the hollow-eyed, lan­ tern-jawed barber, “I’m all right. For God’s sake get the boys to go back aft­ er Panama.” Carpy saw that nothing but a bluff would quiet the pain-racked man. He turned to the men standing by and winked. “Here, you fellows I Get right out and hunt for Panama. And don’t show up here till you find him!” thundered Carpy. Keeping up a rapid fire of talk, Garpy opened his bag, set out his need­ ed appliances and his bottle of chloro­ form, gradually subdued the man, got him, with Jane’s help, under the anes­ thetic, and working in his shirt sleeves and In the intense heat at a breath­ taking speed, finished the operation, sat down, drew a cigar from his waist­ coat pocket and lighted it. ‘Jane,” he said, “I snppose this is your first surgical case?’’ “Yes, Doctor.” “You’d make a good nurse, g irt” “Doctor, what do you suppose he meant calling so for Panama?" Carpy explained. “Today,” he con­ tinued, “Panama was - his partner on the line: the men work In pairs gen­ erally.” I hope they’ll find him all right.”- I hope,” observed Carpy thought­ fully, "he’ll be air right when they do find him.” ‘There come some of the boys. Deni­ son is with them,” Carpy said suddenly, pointing to the edge of the woods. “They’re halting. They’ve got some­ thing slung across the back of a pony. I’ll walk over.” CHAPTER V II Dr. Carpy walked hurriedly to the edge of the woods where the men gath­ ered closely around him. “Best thing to do is to take off that old bunkhouse door. Bill,” said Carpy, when he saw whom they were carrying. “We can lay him on that and carry him over here to the shed.” They had brought Panama out of the burned timber where Denison and Bull Page had found hifn. They had taken in a pony, bareback, to where he lay, slung the big fellow across it, and thus carried him through the woods. Panama was lifted from the pony and laid on the door. A colored neck­ erchief was laid over his face, and with stumbling steps he was carried back of the bunkhouse. Two sawhorses had been set to support the door, and on it Panama lay at rest. His companions made ready to start back for the fire lines. “Now, boys, watch out,” said Deni­ son gravely. “We can’t afford any more mistakes like this. If Jake and Panama had listened to me they wouldn’t have got cut off. Bull,” he added, speaking to Page, “get up a pair of ponies, If you can find ’em, and hitch ’em to the light wagon. Carpy wants Panama taken right in town to the un­ dertaker’s.” The injured barber was coming to. He had been carried to the bunkhouse and was propped up on a bench out­ side the doorway. He looked at Carpy wistfully. “Tell me, Doc,” he begged, “have they found Panama yet?” I did what little I could do for him here. But I’ve not got what’s needed here for treatment. Panama’s got to go to town. They’re hitching up the wagon.” Spotts started up, on fire. “Then I’ve got to see him before he goes. Don’t let ’em start till I see him, Doc. Where is he?” Carpy tried In vain to quiet his pa­ tient. He might as well have tried to stop a forest fire by talking to it, “Keep your leg quiet, Jake. You mustn’t have., any... excitement, tonight. I’ve done my best for you. Now, damn it, dry up: I tell you you can’t see him.” A dreadful Ught dawned on the bar­ ber. His gaunt jaw dropped, bis hol­ low eyes flamed. “Doc I” he cried out. “Panama’s dead!” The word rang In Carpy’s ears for many a day. “Jake,” be said brusque­ ly, “I’ve tried to soften things for you —doesn't seem to be no use. They pulled him out of the woods after the fire passed a grove back of Gunlock Knob.” (TO BE CONTINUED) For Style and Economy A/FAKE them yourself!

MOCKSVILLE. N. C- W a„hm gton.—M r. Secretary M or- genthau lately has gone into the We Borrow £ £ £ 1 ™ a rk e t ‘° borrow approxi- a Billion m ately one billion ., , . dollars. H e asked the banks and other people having K ixe m oney to purchase four hun- dred m illions m new governm ent bond, and a t the sam e tim e asked them to extend loans totalling about $550,000,000 th at m atured on Sep­ tem ber 15. The m aturing securi- tie.,, of course, do not take new m oney out of the m oney m arket but it is borrow ing just the sam e despite the technical nam e of re­ funding. The T reasury s action m borrow ­ ing such a huge sum at this tim e cam e as a surprise. To m any finan­ cial authorities, in fact to m ost of them , there w as no need for bor­ row ing additional funds a t this tim e It w as a circum stance in which, as fa r as m ost observers could see- the T reasury had idle m oney in suffi­ cient am ount to m eet the needs for the next several m onths. Aside from the fact th at the Sec­ retary s action results m an increase m the public debt by the am ount of new m oney borrowed, it is a m atter deserving m ore than passing atten­ tion — m uch m ore attention than T reasury borrow m gs heretofore- The reason is th at the adm inistra­ tion is again piling up in the T reas­ ury a huge am ount of idle funds. As nearly as I can calculate the re­ sults of the Septem ber borrow ings, the T reasury will be left w ith a m ere $1,700,000 m unused cash. Of course, to the Roosevelt adm in­ istration which has dealt only in bil­ lions, this sum m ay not appear im ­ portant. M r. M orgenthau said it w as necessary to have these funds available because of "unsettled con­ ditions abroad. B ut th at answ er, to m e. does not suffice. I recogm ze th at m ost people find little interest in discussing T reas­ ury financial policies. I know from the type of letters th at I get from those who do m e the honor to read these reports th at the subject of T reasury finance seem s far re­ m oved from anything in which they can possibly have an interest. But notw ithstanding those facts. I feel the m atter should be discussed in every section of the country because it directly touches every taxpayer: and th at is of vital im portance. H ere is how it affects the taxpay­ er and when I reier to the taxpayer I refer to every individual in this country, because all of us are pay­ ing taxes either directly or indirect­ ly: W hen the T reasury arranges a cash balance, it provides funds upon w hich the various governm ent agencies m ay draw m accordance w ith congressional appropriations. To th at extent it is like m oney you deposit m a bank. B ut other­ w ise it is quite different. The cash balance m the T reasury lies idle. It brings no return, no profit to any­ body. B ut it is im portant to rem em ber th at there are only two w ays m w hich the T reasury can get m oney for this cash balance, nam ely, by borrow ing or by taxing you and m e- D uring the Roosevelt adm in­ istration the T reasury has borrowed about $2 .l2 for every dollar it has collected m taxes. The result is a gigantic public debt. T here is another result, however, th at is not as apparent to individu­ als- Sm ce the T reasury is borrow ­ ing m oney it has to pay m terest on w hat it borrow s. You and I are paying this m terest m the. form of additional taxes. So. therefore, not alone are we bem g taxed for the m oney th at is spent and w hich m ust be repaid, but we are bem g taxed to pay the m terest on idle funds. M r- M orgenthau s reference to un­ settled conditions abroad directs at­ tention to w hat is happening in E u­ rope and A sia and the link th at ex­ ists betw een those conditions and our own. P resident Roosevelt lately has said on several, occasions th at he did not like to beConditions aw ay from W ash- A b ro a d ington m ore than four or five days a t a tim e because of those unsettled conditions. E very one knows that our foreign friends are rearm ing. I believe every one realizes as well how ever, th at each of those foreign nations is m a po,it.on w here it cannot initiate hostilities. At least- each one is in a position w here very great provocation m ust occur before it can justify the sta rt ing of a w ar in the eyes of nations like our own. Any one who w ishes to exam ine tho=e unsettled conditions will find at the very bottom two types of propaganda. One com es from R us­ sia the other from G erm any. The two types of propagandists, while violently hating each other, are preaching exactly the. sam e sort of thing They are telling the world th at if the world w ants peace it m ust align itself, w ith one or the other of the two schools of thought, depending upon w hich type of prop aganda you read. W ith circum , stances like th at going on abroad, it seem s to m e th at we a , .A m eri ought to realize fully—and, ought to defend—the type of govern­ m ent th at we have. N either Stahn nor H itler preaches our type of eco­ nom ic thought. In view of that. A m ericans surely ought to tighten their girdle and take a definite stand tor the preservation of our tradi­ tion,, our practices, because it is under those traditions and prac- t*ce, that our nation has grown great.* * * I have been a little bit dis­ appointed th at M r. Roosevelt and , _ . M r. S ecretaryAmerican H u ll of th e s ta te Doctrine departm ent have not preached the A m erican doctrine at m ore length. I am sure pronouncem ents by them m condem nation of com m unism or fascism would find a hearty re­ sponse a t the hands of the Am eri­ can people. It is to be recognized th at change^ take place in world econom- IC and political thought. They are taking place in our country. M ore are com ing. But I condem n the practices of com m unism and fas- c.,m because they have ruined the liv e, of all excepting a few people in every nation w here those poli­ cies are operative. They will de­ stroy the independence of thought and action, the happiness, th at we have com e to know in this country as a natural right. In negotiations with foreign pow­ ers, M r. Roosevelt has not been fortunate. I think it is generally agreed am ong observers that the P resident fum bled the ball when he failed to take advantage of a splendid opportunity to deal with F rance and G reat B ritain when he first becam e President. Likewise- I know there are m any students who are convinced th at the P resi­ dent by his own acts broke up the London econom ic conference m the sum m er of 1933 and with the col­ lapse of th at London m eetm g w ent any hope for an early recovery from the depression on a w orld basis. The w ar debts question still hangs in m id air. The recognition of R us­ sia I am convinced turned out to be a fizzle. The far eastern pro­ gram . if there w as a program , has yielded nothing because it m ust be said m truth we have not cem ented our friendship w ith Japan. * * * W ithin the last few days we have seen the collapse of the French cur- rency. We haveFranee Off seen the Presi- Cold Standard dent join with G reat B ritain m co-operating with the French in their difficulty. Yet. it is appar­ ent to anyone who will review the financial and economic history of the last three years that the F rench have m ade- a great effort to re­ m ain on the gold standard—and they had no help from us until they could no longer stand the strain. It is alw ays easier to use hind­ sight than foresight. It is easier as w ell to call attention to m istakes three years after those m istakes have been m ade than to take a bold stand when the errors w ere first discussed. These facts, how­ ever- do not in any w ay lighten the responsibility th at w as ours as a nation in 1933. I refer again to the London eco­ nom ic conference and the events prior to it in 1933. T here w ere plenty of m en in the U nited States at that tim e who said openly that the U nited States should move quickly and take leadership in world stabilization of currencies: It ap­ peared for a tim e that P resident Roosevelt - would take that action but instead'he is charged with hav­ ing broken up the London confer­ ence because he failed to assum e that leadership which he could have had. T hat brm gs us to the link be­ tw een the TJmted S tate, and the conditions of Europe. M r. Roose­ velt- through S ecretary Morgen- thau says now th at the United States will stand w ith G reat Britain in helping the French. The question naturally arises why did not the United States stand with F rance in 1933 when F rance and a half dozen other European nations w ant­ ed to rem ain on the gold standard for its currency. -Personally- I have never seen any rea=on why the United S tate, ,hould have devalued its dollar as w as done If we had not devalued, one thing i= quite certain: M am tenance of the gold standard by the Umted States would have continued to strengthen the currency of those countries in E urope, including France- th at desired to continue th at currency basis. . I have heard it said as well that if the U nited S tates had rem ained on the gold standard instead of de­ valuing its dollar, G reat B ritam would have been able soon-to have restored her currency to a gold basis. Certainly, the B ritish could not have rem ained off of gold a , long as they have if gold corn w ere allowed to circulate in the Um ted States. I believe no one can fore­ cast a t this tim e exactly w hat the results of the French devaluation will be. .© Western Nevspeper Uaioa» 7O ld O a k e n B u c k e t7 P a n e l So dear to our hearts—the tune. ■ Old O aken Bucket.” and now. a wall panel in its m em ory, which every one of us will w ant to em ­ broider a t once.

One Human Shipload A Floating Microcosm ' Intelligent Mrs. Widener Mrs. Astor and Dr. Carrel On Board the Normandie.—The ancient writer made this admission: There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not:The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a ser- pent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a m an with a maid.What would that inspired writer say of this modem ship in the midst of the sea? The biggest ship he ever saw could. be hung from the ceiling of the dining salon on this boat or tucked -away in a comer of the sun deck, disturbing no one. A rtb a t B risb an e A modem ocean liner, Queen Mary, Normandie, Rex or Europa, as it crosses the ocean indifferent to waves and winds, is a small world in itself, a microcosm, with this little earth playing the role of “Cosmos.” If this ship should sail to some new, uninhabited island of Utopia, it might supply everything necessary to start a new civiliza­tion better than the one invented by Sir Thomas More, who has been made a saint since he wrote “Utopia” to amuse himself and had his head cut off for his Catholic faith.On board, with his friend, George Bacon, is Myron .Taylor, head of the United States Steel com­ pany, biggest industrial unit on earth. He would supply the. ma­ terial for skyscrapers, ships, rail­ roads and machinery, plus organ­ ization. Simon Guggenheim would tell them how to make corporations profitable, by “holding, on.” Various newspaper workers on the boat would be ready to start “the New Utopia Gazette”; Floyd Gibbons for war correspondent, plus members of the Edward H. Butler family, that own the Buffalo News, and’ the able Abraham Cahan, known to more New Yorkers, than, any editor in America, with one exception. And, most important to newspaper prosperity, the ship car­ ries Mrs. George D. Widener of Philadelphia, who has traveled up and down in every corner of the earth and says to your narrator: “Mr. Brisbane, I have always wanted to meet you, because I read your articles every day.”There spoke the nucleus of a high­ ly intelligent reading public, Mrs. Vincent Astor, on her way back from a grouse moor in. Scot­ land, would resume her real job of promoting deep music, finding co-operators in the passenger list —Madame Flagstadt, the admirable Norwegian singer, a deep soprano able to make Isolde more impres­sive than Wagner ever imagined her. On board also is Arthur Bo- danzky, ready to conduct the “New Utopia orchestra.” Mayor La- Guardia of New York will tell you how earnestly Mrs. Astor talks to him about her plans for a great musical center. But Mr. LaGuardia will never know what shudders would sweep from Ward Mc­ Allister’s pineal gland to his Achilles tendon if he could hear Mayor LaGuardia say of the-young lady in question, “That Mrs. Astor is a nice, serious girl, thoroughly in earnest.” To make this list complete, P, G. Wodehouse is on board, one who could and should describe this shipload of “important humanity” going nowhere in particular, for no reason in particular, some in the steerage, some “tourist” and some, with cabins on the sundeck, whose names break up passenger list con­ tinuity to make room ;for. the; magic words “maid, valet and ‘chauf­feur.” News Review of Current EviMits the World Over BleakIey and Lehman to Fight for New York Governorship —Communist Candidate Browder Jailed in Terre Haute—France Devalues the Franc.

Lehman, and his can­ didacy was warmly espoused by President Roosevelt, who went to Syracuse to deliver his first speech as an avowed candidate. The Pres­ ident took occasion to deny again that he seeks Communist support and alleged that issue was a “red herring” dragged across the trail by his. opponents. FRANK KNOX, President Roose­ velt and Al Smith, all on the air the same evening, provided a political feast for radio listeners. Colonel Knox, speaking at Pitts­ burgh, reiterated and substantiated his former assertion that New Deal financial policies were imperilling savings accounts and insurance pol­ icies, Mr. Roosevelt, not so elo­quent as usual, defended the spend­ ing policies of his administration. He, too, spoke at Pittsburgh, The high spot of the evening came at the close of Al Smith’s address to women’s organization in New York city. He had been treating of the New Deal and its leaders with biting sarcasm and wound up with the dramatic declaration: “I firmly believe that the remedy for all the ills that we are suffer­ ing from today is the election of Alfred M. Landon.” Whereupon arose a shout that lit­ erally echoed throughout the land. The contest between modem ships for the “Atlantic' blue ribbon,” or ocean championship, held at this moment by Ihe British Queen Mary, supplies most amazing proof of mod­ em engineering efficiency. Consider that, in a race icross 3.000 miles of water, the Queen Mary, after being beaten several times by the French liner Normandie, beat the . latter and took the Atlantic blue ribbon by a margin of less than half a mile, across 3,000 miles of ocean. The oftener you cross, the more clearly you realize that the ocean is a great deal too big for our small planet. It is all one ocean— Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, Antarctic, all touching—water covering three- quarters of the eatto’s surfege, •’ Consider the Pacific; take’ your world map, Mercator’s projection, fold it over from Asia toward New York and beyond. It will cover the United States, the Atlantic ocean and all Europe toithe Bosporus. O K lnc F eature* Syndlcst*. Inc.• - WND Service. Iecting a $2,500,000 “windfall” tax, levied ini the. revenue act of '1936, to recover; processing taxes previously assessed under the AAA but later ruled invalid by the supreme court. Judge Baltzell said: that he . found various “unusual circumstances" creating a doubt as to the possibility of the packing company’s having' adequate remedy at law in s o m e other court. Because of this, he said, it is imperative for his court to grant the packing company the right to sue in federal court. .The decision is said to be directing but not controlling in other similar cases in the district. Dismissal of the injunction suit was sought by the government on the ground there is no authority in law for restraining collection of a tax. APPEALS filed by the national labor relations board offer the Supreme court five new opportuni­ ties to pass on the constitutionality of the Wagner labor relations court. The’board asked the high tribunal to review rulings in a case involv­ ing the Jones & Laughlin Steel cor­ poration of Pittsburgh, two involv­ ing the Freuhauf Trailer company of Canton, Ohio, and two affecting the Friedman-Harry Marks Cloth­ ing company, New York. The labor relations board lost all five cases in lower courts. CvARL BROWDER, Communist ■*-' party nominee for the Presi­ dency, achieved the distinction of being the first Presidential candi­ date to be jailed since Eugene V. Debs wsus incarcerated .during, the World war. Browder was scheduled to make a campaign address over the radio from Terre Haute, Ind., but when he arrived in that city he was nabbed by Chief of Police James C. Yates and put in the hoosegow on charges of vagrancy and “for investigation.” Heid with him were ,Seymour Walden and Wal­do Frank, both of New York City; Charles Stadtfeldt, secretary of the Indiana Communist party, and An­drew Remes of Indianapolis. All were released the next day. Chief Yates, who had the back­ ing of Mayor Samuel O. Beecher and the Terre Haute Merchants’ as­ sociation, said.neitoer Browder “nor any oth^r.. Communist” would be permitted' to ^air' their party'' dde- trines over the local radio station; but David J. Bentall of Chicago, Browder’s attorney, slipped into toe broadcasting booth and delivered the speech his principal had pre­ pared while Yates fumed outside the locked door. TUST as the maritime unions on "the Pacific coast .were about to go on a strike that would have tied up the great shipping industry, the trouble was averted by the signing of a-Jif^een-dlay, truce, between the employers and’the workers’ arid toe nominal extension for sixty days of working contracts negotiated after the strike of 1934. The truce provides that maritime unions at toe expiration of toe pe­ riod, October 15, would either agree to arbitration of issues involving wages and hours which are not set­tled, or relations with employers would be broken completely. The negotiations, handled princi­pally, by the Department of Labor’s ace trouble-shooter,: Edward F. Mc- Orady, will continue during the fif­ teen-day period of peace. TN WHAT was said by court at- x taches to be the first: important ruling anywhere on numerous suits filed by packing companies and others against government collec­tion of toe CvRANCE at last came to the con- 4 elusion that it could no longer support the franc and Premier Leon Blum’s government decided to abandon the gold standard and de­ valuate the franc to between 4% and 5 cents. The Nether­ lands, Latvia and Switzerland immedi­ ately-determined to follow suit. To save toe world from a currency war, the United States, Great Britain and France . entered into a “gen- Leon “h™1 tlemen’s agreement.” The . exact nature, of this agreement was not revealed, but toe United States promised to employ its $2,000 ,000 ,- 000 stabilization fund to head off toe feared struggle. Certain it is that each of toe three nations, re­ serves the. right to depart from the pact if and when its own interests require such a course. An expected outcome of toe now general ’ drop­ ping of the gold standard may be an nternational conference for stabili­ zation of world currencies. This mjght be held in Washington. Blum called a special session of the French parliament to pass toe necessary .legislation, and his plan was given grudging approval by the finance committee of the chamber of deputies. Its adoption by toe chamber, where the “pop­ ular front” has a big majority, was easy, but a fight developed in, the T HE government wound up its affairs for toe first quarter of toe 1937 fiscal year with a. deficit of about $530,000,000 compared with a deficit of more than $880,000,000 for the same period last year.Receipts in the July I - Sept. 28 period were $1,119,196,888, com­ pared with $986,888,265 - last year, while expenditures were $1,635,- 909 .J&6;SagainStf$l;815j219,471.

Income tax collections for Sep­ tember will amount to about $287,- 000,000, against $231,000,000 last year, and for the first quarter of this year approximately $358,000,000, -compared with $278,000,000. ’Miscel­ laneous internal revenue netted the government $617,307,783 in the July •!-September 28 period, as compared with $517,986,451 la'st year. The public debt at the end of the month stood at. $33,831,790,000, com­ pared with $29,423,624,000 on the same date last year. /^EN . FRANCISCO " furious Spanish Gen. Franco FRANCO’S Fascists reached toe ancient city of Toledo and drove out the government troops with shell and bayonet. The rebels fought their ,vay through strong defense and as they reached the ’ center - of the city there was a great shout from the Alcazar.Out of that battered citadel rushed toe ragged, battered and half-starved ca­ dets who had with­stood a terrific siege for almost ten weeks. This heroic garrison joined the insurgents in charging the de­ fenders and. finally toe Socialist troops scattered and fled south­ ward Over - toe Tagus river. Their way to Madrid was blocked by Franco’s columns. Fascist bombing planes made sev­ eral destructive . raids on Bilbao, killing a large number of the citi­zens, smashing innumerable build­ ings and damaging two warships in the harbor. The enraged govern­ ment sympathizers demanded that Fascist hostages held in the city >e executed in reprisal, and finally a mob of anarchist amazons swarmed aboard a vessel on which many hostages were kept and brutally slaughtered 210 of them after put­ ting them to the torture. The:, sav­ age women were on their way to a prison to kill 60 woman hostages when they were dispersed by civil guards. That toe Spanish government re­ alizes its precarious situatioi. is evi­ denced by its proclamation ordering Madrid to prepare for a siege, fol­ lowed by a manifesto calling on ev­ eryone, women as well as men, to rally to the defense of the capital. senate^'UThe dangerous political situation ended when toe senate passed', a substitute measure to revalue the French currency but denied toe gov­ ernment’s original request for full power to control price rises. The government approved the substitute bill, withdrawing its opposition to senate objections to particular clauses in toe original measure. The price-fixing problem w a s soived'’in this way :v Afferi devalua­tion, the government may be given the right to'control prices for six months by issuing decrees. These decrees, however, must be sub­ mitted to toe national economic council for ratification. From the Chicago Journal. of Commerce is taken this plain state­ ment as to what France's action means to the.ordinary American citizen: “Reducing the amount of gold represented by one franc will mean that-toe average,.,American will, be able to tfavel cheaper in Friahce than for the last two years. French wines should be cheaper in this country and women should be able to buy French-perfume for 1« .

But don’t lose any sleep over it un­ less you tire getting an income from someone in France. In that case, since-it will take more francs to buy dollars, your income will be cut.

That's toe big ,goal.” : DOLAND’S government began the * confiscation of the lands of the aobility and large estate holders by seizing 60,000 acres from tax in­ debted properties. The land will be divided among the peasantry. This is the first step in carrying out a radical project that has been shelved for ten years. , Jules Poniatowski, Imniste' of ag­ riculture, had a hard fight before the president and cabinet' indoresd the decree. Much • pressure w as brought to bear: on the government and confiscations were reduced al­ most 50 per cent from toe amounts suggested by the minister. More than one-third of toe seques­ trated land is in east Galicia, the remainder in the east and south of Poland. CHANGHAI dispatches say the Chinese, government has reject­ ed the latest demands of Japan and countered with a list of demands of its own that include recovery of Manchukuo and xa halt to in­ creases of Japanese troops in North China’.

The persecution at Philippi served not to discourage Paul and Silas, but rather to send them forward into new territory with the gospel message. Passing through tw o cities they came to Thessalonica, then as now a city of considerable importance. After a successful though stormy ministry there they journeyed forty miles to Berea, where the Word was gladly received. The portion of our lesson from the Book of Acts relates how the Word was preached and received in these two cities, and the excerpt from the letter which Paul later wrote to the Thessalonian church shows what manner of life the preacher sought to. live among them.I. Preaching the Word (Acts 17; I, 5-8). Paul’s experience at Thessalonica presents an excellent illustration of I. How toe Word should be preached (w. I, 5-8).This section is incomplete with­out verses 2-4, which are omitted from the printed portion but should be included in the study of the lesson. Notice four things concern­ ing- his preaching. •a. The place (v. I). Paul went to toe synagogue, not by chance or because it was a great religious holiday, but because it was his “custom.” The synagogue was the center of Jewish worship, and there Faul met those who were ready to receive the Word of God.Some Christians are content to remain comfortably. in church and forget to go. out into the highways and hedges, but there are cithers' who have become so accustomed to going elsewhere that they neglect the opportunity for spiritual min­ istry in the church.b. The method (w. 2-3). “Rea­soning from: the Scriptures.” No better method has ever been de­ vised. It is God’s method. Let us get back to exposition of toe Scriptures—“opening” them to men and women, “alleging,” or setting ,oil); in order the. truth. c. The subject (v. 3). He preached three fundamental doc­ trines—the atonement, the resurrec­ tion, and the deity of Christ. Scrip­ture preaching will be doctrinal. d. The result (vv. 4-8). Faithful preaching of God’s Word brings one of two results in the hearts of men —they are either “persuaded” and converted, or they become angry and persecute. Those who rightly received the truth were glad to join with Paul; toe others raised a hue and cry because* Paul and Silas were turning “the world upside down.” As a matter of fact the world was already wrongside up, and Paul sought to set it right. It is still upside down in our day. Coming to Berea, we find Paul’s experience there an illustration of 2., How toe Word should be re­ ceived (w. 9-11). Good hearers are as important as good preachers. How should toe Word be received?. a. With readiness of mind (v. 11). This is a mark of nobility. The world regards toe’ sophisticated doubter as toe learned man, but he, is hot. Noble is toe mind and heart that receives God’s truth. b. Carefully and thoughtfully (v. 11). There would be less errbr and folly in the pulpit if there were more intelligent Bible study in the pew. Do not assume that what soma learned professor, or distin­guished radio preacher says is true. Check his message by toe Word. In the final portion of our lesson Paul tells the Thessalonians that when he was with them he was oonCern&J nobohly about preaching toe Word, but also about II. Living toe Life (I Thess. 2:7-12). Paul did, not contradict : his preaching by his living. His was a’ L Sacrificial service (w. 7-9). • The man who preaches for his own glory—or gain—is not a true preacher of toe gospel. 10 T2) Consisten* example (w. ■■ The minister of Christ must be- riShteously, and un- blamaMj) vU his people are to^walk worthy of God.” T-TU ?ur Place in toe World^ Whatever the place allotted to us by Providence, that for us is toe post of-honor and duty.

The Roosevelt A dm inistration will j have collected m ore than sixteen billions of dollars from the tax- i payers by the end of the present i fiscal year, June 30, 1937. It will ■ have spent all of that huge sum ' since June 30, 1933 and alm ost fif- ! teen billions in addition. The fifteen I billions will have been obtained i largely by signing the taxpayer’s Inam e to prom issory notes, which 1 will have to be paid by the tax- ■ payer’s children, and children s I children. .T h ep lig h to fth etax p ay ersism ad e ; no less serious by the fact that !m ore than one-half of his Federal • taxes have been hidden. Income 1 taxes are direct and visible. The ; hidden tax, however, is one that !lias been im posed on m anufactur- : ers, m erchants, etc., and is passed ' on to consum ers by adding the ' am ount of the tax to the price of i the goods sold to the public. ! Fam iliar sam ples of such taxation are the 2 -cent tax on a loaf of bread, the 6-cent tax on each package of cigarettes and the total of 40 cents :—taking the average of Federal, State and local taxes—th at the car- owner pays every tim e he buys a dollar’s worth of gasoline, i Hidden Taxes Increase. I This list m ight be extended to hundreds of item s on which the buy- j er pays the invisible tax. The pay- Im ents are sm all, but they are con- |tinuous and the aggregate am ounts :so collected are enorm ous. In the !fiscal year 1936 the m iscellaneous ! internal revenue taxes, m ost of !which are of the invisible kind, !am ounted to a total of slightly m ore I than two billions of dollars. In the I fiscal year 1937 the total will be two : billions and two hundred and thirty 'm illions of dollars. In the last fis­ cal year 60 cents of the tax dollar cam e from hidden taxes and only 40 cents from incom e taxes. W riters on national tax m atters point to these facts to show how foolish it is to accept the often- heard statem ent th at “ soak-the- rich” tax m easures take the greater I p art of the tax load off the backs of I people of m oderate or sm all m eans. They m ay earn so little th at they !are not required to pay any in- • com e tax. B ut every m an and wom- jan who buys food, clothing, m edi- ; cines, furniture, autom obiles or any ;of the necessities or conveniences of life pays the hidden tax. i President’s Figures Startling. I M r. Boosevelt on Septefnber I is­ sued a statem ent on the budget fot the present fiscal year.,, While ac­ countants have found the Presi- ' dent’s figures puzzling and New !Deal critics have charged th at the ; revised budget w as given out as a j “ cam paign docum ent” everybody apparently has been startled a t the [huge totals. The revised estim ate ;for the current fiscal year m akes it ' possible to review the totals of the four years of spending under the Boosevelt A dm inistration. ^ I The President estim ated the gross ' deficit for the present year a t slight­ ly m ore than two billions of dollars. ;H e indicated, however, th at there !would be a request for another ap- ' propriation of $500,000,000 for work- i relief and drought-relief. This will I bring the deficit to m ore than two and one-half billions, i Can’t B lam e Bonos. I Including the additional $500,000,- . 000 the totals for four y ears of New I D eal taxing, spending and borrow- jing are as follows: receipts, m ore j than sixteen billions; expenditures, m ore than thirty-one and one-half |billions; deficits, alm ost fifteen bil- i lions. The huge am ount estim ated ;for this fiscal year’s spending can- ■not be attributed to the bonus pay­ m e n ts, for the reason that all but i $560,000,000 of the ITonus obligations w ere paid off in the last previous fiscal year. F igures for 1936 and 1937 show . th a t if the bonus paym ents w ere : elim inated entirely the total spent -would still be well over seven bil­ lion dollars in each year. I The P resident’s Septem ber state- Tment also disclosed th at increasing I costs of governm ent are not all due j to relief expenditures. The startling = fact is th at while certain regular ' departm ents of the governm ent, ■which have no relation to recovery !and relief, cost the taxpayers only $529,501,937 in 1935, the expenditures in the sam e departm ents for the fis­ cal year 1937 will be $991,735,300. !R egular or ordinary expenditures for the civil departm ents and agen­ cies and the judiciary thus have alm ost doubled in two years. T axpayers who have been waiting for econom y in governm ent appar­ ently will have to w ait som e more. Socialism in Utilities Unfair to Taxpayer ■ P resident Roosevelt said in a re­ cent speech in W ashington th at the huge . pQyer and .^electric enterprises of the G overnm ent, would not injure private power and electric com pa­ nies, with which the G overnm ent w as in com petition. The private en­ terprises deny this. T axpayers ir all p arts of the country also have an interest in the m atter, as they are com pelled to support the Govern­ m ent’s power program s so that con­ sum ers in fav o red 'areas m ay en­ joy reduced rates. KOWTHEBftNKSAID THE GOVERNMENT Normal and Emergency Needs Met by Advance* of Com* mercial Banking Credit NSW BRUNSWICK. N. J .- T h e American commercial banting credit system is an absolute essential Ia the financial operations of business and government. Harold G. Moulton, Presi­ dent of the Brookinss Institution ol WasJ.iington. D. C-. said bere recently In an address before the Graduate School of Banking conducted under the joint auspices of Rutgers University and the American Bankers Association. If the Sesibility and expansibility provided by commercial banking credit were eliminated. Pr. Moulton declared, “it is scarcely too much to say that the economic system itself would shortly be destroyed. "Normally the amount of credit ex­ tended by commercial hanks to the gov­ ernment is small in amount and tor the purpose mainly of financing temporary requirements in anticipation of tax col­ lections or bond Bales Bul in periods of war and acute depression, when the financial requirements of government expand with great rapidity, the expan­ sion of commercial bank credit is on a tremendous scale. Such is the case at the present time. How Public Needs Are Financed “The purchase of government securi­ ties by individuals and by the commer­ cial banks provides the government with the means by which its manilold activities are financed. The Treasury obtains the funds, with which the Reconstruction F in an ce Corporation and other government credit agencie8 finance their operations, through the sale of securities, largely to commercial banks. These funds, in turn, have gone to the assistance of distressed banks and other financial Institutions, to aid industrial and agricultural enterprises, to finance new public and private capi­ tal construction, and to provide relief to the unemployed.” Dr. Moulton declared that it is not true that the world depression waa caused by a breakdown of the American banking system “which did not, in fact, occnr until the depression had been under way tor more than three years.** He added: "Nor is it true that the world mal­ adjustments existing in 1929 can be ex­ plained simply by undue extensions of commercial banking credit in the .pre­ ceding years. These maladjustments in­ volved world agricultural, industrial, commercial and financial relations.’’ FARM ACCOUNTING REVEALS LESSONS Piindples of Sound Business Management That Apply to AU Farms An analysis made of detailed records kept by a group ot Wisconsin farms revealed several important lessons and the principles of sound business man­ agement derived from them apply equally well to other farms, says an article in the Bulletin or the Agricul­ tural Commission of the American Bankers Association. The article says: "Investment costs, including inter est, depreciation, repairs, taxes and in­ surance, are approximately two-thirds of all farm costs. Furthermore, these costs are largely independent ot the production program of the farm. “This means that it a farmer cuts his production of crops or livestock, he Increases his Investment costs per unit of product produced, as a smaller number ot units must then carry as large an expense load as before. This illustrates the importance, from the standpoint of costs, ot operating a farm at or near capacity. "Investment mistakes are more cost­ ly than many others because they can­ not easily be corrected. If a farmer pays too much for his farm, his invest­ ment costs will be abnormally high as long as he owns it. If he constructs a $4,000 barn, when a $2,000 barn would have served his purpose, he will have excessive barn costs, year after year, during the entire service life of the structure. "This emphasizes the Importance of a knowledge of investment values and the specific investment requirements of individual farms. Determining Real or False Economies "In working for greater economy, it is essential that the farm manager be able to distinguish between a real and a false saving. This can be done only through a careful estimate of the' con­ tribution to income, over a period of time, ot each Item of expenditure. Only it more is saved In expense than will be lost in income, can a contemplated cut In expense be designated as a real , saving. “For example, dropping dairy herd improvement work nay result In a ■ yearly expense reduction. The ques­ tion to decide is what effect the drop ping of this work will have on the present and future Income from the dairy herd.- If the estimated loss in live­ stock receipts due’ to a lowered effi­ ciency In feeding and breeding Is ‘,.(greater than the original saving, then ,it would obviously be a false economy. ’‘Substantial savings'ian be effected ■ on many farms through the use of ■ more home, grown garden produce and . farm cured’meats. Why pay out money for products of this kind that can be produced mucb cheaper at home? The money saved from the family food budget can be iised tor the purchase ot many things that will make the Taru home a more comfortable and pleosut place to Uve.” Radio Commencement Exercises M ore than 200 widely separated chapters of the American Institute of Banking, the educational section of the American Bankers Association, hold annually in Septem ber a sim ul­ taneous commencement exercise a t which they listen to the speaker of the evening by radio. This is said to be the most extensive graduation cere­ mony held by any educational insti­ tution. The aggregate membership of the chapters, which are located in cities and towns throughout the United States, totals about 35,000 bank employees and officers. The graduates num ber each year more than 2,500, and total graduates are aow over 25,000. P rices and H appiness. A national advertiser has been us­ ing the following slogans: “ W atch Costs!” , “Low Costs M ean G reater Savings!” , “ Low Costs M ean G reat- er P leasure!” T hat business organ­ ization apparently hasn’t heard of the New D eal theory th at high prices to the consum er m ake for the abundant life.

Norris, of Nebraska; has bub IicIy demanded that Roosevelt end Farleyism But Mr. Farley, with his Tammany training, and his fair lysuccessfulattempts to force Tam many ism on the whole nation, is the strongest man in the Rooseve't Administration today. "It is the rational, clear'thinking, high minded men ,who sought to go along with Mr. Roosevelt who got kicked out—the Louis W. Douglas­ ses, the Raymond Moleys, the Jef­ ferson Coolidges. Never -Farley. Mr. Roosevelt Icnows which side his bread is buttered on -pbiitically. If it is necessary to plunge this nation so deeply Jnto debt hy reck iessdnd--PftiiUcali-V^ -that printing" press money' 'Is the only logical outcome he will do it unflinchingly. “No one questions tbe abdity of these savings banks and these life insurance companies to pay the number of dollars called for in the bank books or in the life insurance policies. It is a question of whether these dollars will be worth any­ thing if the Roosevelt spending con­ tinues. What can the insurance officials and bankers be expected to say? After all, they are running their business intelligently, but they can­ not control what this Roosevelt government may do, either to the dollars specified in their insurance policies and savings bank books, or to the dollars they have invested in government and ALL OTHER bonds, mortgages, etc. Every American paying life insurance prmiums knows that be­ cause of what the Roosevelt Admin­ istration has done the earnings of the life insurance companies already have shrunk. He knows the divi­ dends, which until lately he has used to reduce his premiums, or to buy additional paid up insurance, have been whittled down. “ But the big thing is that if the Roosevelt Administration continues its present spending, politics, waste and graft, as demonstrated every time an investigator looks beneath the surface, the time is coming when Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Tugwell will be forced, whether they like It or not, to go to printing press money. “It is the history of every resort to printing press money, with the German mark the latest spectacu­ lar example. that the money soon­ er or later becomes worthless. AVeTy Good Cure. What we think is the very best cure for reckless drivers, whether they be drunken drivers or just plain careless ones, is said to be in practice in the city of Chicago. Most people have no special worry about having to pay a fine tor some minor infraction of the law, many of them do not even mind serving a short jail sentence if their offense is grave enough to warrant it, and we are told that revocation of driver’ licenses are often evaded by the culprits who lose them . But Chicago has a wav of punish­ ing violators of the motor/vehicle laws which stings the offenders in a way that is a psychological;'triumph for the one who .thought of it. There is no fine to. pay, no-jail sen­ tence to serve no driving licences to surrender; but the offender’s.:fail to- mobile is “incarcerated”/ j When the law takes a -car away from an offender, the latter really is punished. Chicago locks tip the car instead of the man. This .not only serves to punish the reckless driver, but also it relieves, him of tbe means of repeating the Offense until such a time as the .authorities see fit to reinvest him^Arttn his propetty. We believe that this mode ot punishment would be the most ef fective means of curbing many .reck less drivers all over the country if it were universally adopted SJgfk'- The same course is prafctic|^:.upon infants when nothing else cSh effect obedience.

Make an earnest effort toward con­ sistency of life at home and in public. Participate actively in the work of tbe church where he can best serve Make a definite contribution to the maintenance of the church and to benevolences. Take his church letter with him whem he moves, and unites with the church of his choice. W I L L N O T : Put the claims of business or plea­ sure before the claims of his church. Criticize the work being done and those who are doing the work. Claim that the church should carry his name on the roll, but that he must not be asked to carry any re­ sponsibility for the work of the church. Pay bis club dues before his church pledge. Leave his church letter “back home” or discount his privileges as a church member. CHURCH ATTENDANCE The excuses offered for not going to church are many and varied, but the honest thinker must admit that there are more good reasons for go­ ing to church than for not going. In connection with the subject of church attendance we print the fol­ lowing article which once won a prize offered for the best article on church attendance: “Bad weather should not keep people away from Church because they need it, their pastor needs them and the world is watching them. People, especially Christians, need the fellowship, the spiritual uplift and most of all the spiritual food which they obtain at Church. The pastor needs their presence for in­ spiration that he may utter words which used of God will save a/soul. The world is watching Christians and knows that the weather does not keep them from work other places so it is necessary for Chris­ tians to show that their spiritual de­ sires are'just asr important as their material wants.” : ; A bunk of chocolate is a good sub­ stitute for a highball. It is estimated that seventy per cent of the population of Canada live in their own homes. Pointed Out The Faults. Editor Victor Meekins tells of watching a £'■ honest merchants down on the sand bands sell a piece of machinery for which he had no further use. The fellow went into much detail and care in pointing out every defect of the machine, what was likely to give trouble and what to do to get the best results. Every broken or undependable part was pointed out before he said any­ thing about the merits of the ap- pai atus. This merchants who thinks hon­ estly and has a passion for right­ eousness didn’t want his prospec­ tive purchaser to say later that he had out-traded him. Remembering baskets of apples with luscious fruit on top and runts packed in' the bottom, and a coughing gasoline buggy that was sold to us as “good as new,” we are interested in tbe philosophy of Jim Snmrell, of Point Harbor, w h 0 m/., Editor Victor Meekins quotes as follows: “The present generation of peo­ ple ar working their beads off to skin every dollar they can get out of everybody they know to hoard up aDd leave their children. They thiuk they are doing a lot to make life easier for those.they leave be­ hind. “In a little while after they are dead, the money they will leave will be wasted by the children and the children will be worse off than before. It seems to me7 they could see it would pay them better and htehelter for their childremjifr they metre^imd^djggttie, Jtrym gr, to. leach their children to be, good citizens, and how to make a living for themselves, so they could carry 'on alright, whether their old folks left them any money or not. In trying to make things easier for their children, they are now only adding to their burdens. That is a slant that many of us fail to get in these dollar-chasing days when we seem to subscribe to the creed ‘ ‘sock the other fellow be fore he socks you.” Maybe Mer­ chant Sumrell got the best of the trade on that machine, but be it said to his credit that he propped the buyer’s eves open while he did it. —Statesville Daily.

New Duties For County Agents. The County Agricultural Agent was originally intended to be a farm education leader. He has ceased to be that. The Triple A was, and the Soil Conservation Act is now ad­ ministered through his office, and my observation is that in Iowa prac­ tically all of his time is now given to this matter ana to spreading propa­ ganda for this program. Each county has a County Control Committee of three, and each town­ ship has in turn its committee of three. The remuneration received by these local men is not large, but it is enough to make practically every every one of them boosters for the New Deal They call the farm ers together in every township and explain the program.” What an opportunity for propaganda! I attended one of these meetings recently, and tbe chairman of tbe County Control Committee opened the meeting with a eulogy on “our good President and on our good Se­ cretary of Agriculture ” as the mak­ ers of the feasts to set before the farmer. Let no one imagine that the farmers who marched on Wash­ ington to demand the re-enactment of Triple A were any other than these men with a job interest in its perpetuation. Why should i- be necessary to con­ ceal the pay of these men? I re­ peatedly challenged the Control Com­ mittee in my county to publish an intemized statement of the expenses of administration of Triple A. but wifi.-met-with stony- silence. I Bti- •t^^^tffiljrad^ itemized statements of corn hog con-: trol association’s expenditures.” In short, the books were open to those who got the money, but not to those who paid the bill. Such an autocratic attitude is inherent in bureaucratic authority become in­ tolerant and autocratic, whether they are Italian Fascists, German Nazis, Russian Communits or New Dealers.—Farm Journal. Effect on Character Not Good. Jim Pierce would not have liked a system that destroys the morale of men. The pioneers who settled this western land were of heroic mold. They conquered the wildness and the praire, and went through the bitter depressions of ’73 and ’93 with little of government aid or largess. When I was a boy a tornada came one evening out of tbe southwest, lifted our little house from its foun­ dations and scattered it with our meager household goods over, the prairie. We were homeless and destitute. The township trustees sent out a box of groceries, but my father said, “Just take them back, I am not on the county yet,” gathered up the scattered and broken boards, and rebuilt his little shelter. A soidier in the Civil War, he ri- fused to make application for a pen­ sion until it had been granted to all who had seen service. I cannot im­ agine him soliciting a government check for wheat or corn he'' did not raise.-Farm Journal.

He declar­ es he has made only two exceptions to this rule in the past three years and in both instances the defendants were young college boys whom he permitted to go back to tbeir seach for knowledge. “Men who drive under the influ­ ence of liquor,” says Judge Warlick, “are desecrating the highways and it is my conviction that they should be punished by being made to work on those highways.” Judge War­ lick is appoaching the Droblem from the most effective angle. What is of equal importance, with his record squares with his pronouncements. It is next to the useless to deliver lec­ tures from the bench,, and then hackstand the solicitor when he al-T. ows thecharge of I drunken driving. Jtpjbe changed to reck leaa'dr Jving^ of lfifee^aWyS;ofi^ti^ shortcuts.: - Having never had a lady to ' come before him charged with drunken driving, Judge Warlick says: * I don’t know whether the ladies drink or not ” We reckon the judge prob­ ably has heard as much, but, being a cautious jurist accustomed to de­ manding proof, he just doesn’t “know.” Of course if he craves to make certain, we’d advise that he adjourn court some Saturday and find a seat in some football stadium, ard he’ll get an eye full. Even with­ out invoking the age-oid differential between ladies and women, the judge’ll find that ladies do take a nip—just to strengthen their vision for what is going on down near the goal line.—Statesville Daily. Taxes Follow WPA. WPA holds forth the bait of Fed­ eral funds for a swimming pool, a gymnasium, or a ukuleln band, if the local community will raise a like amount. Do we let slip this golden opportunity to get our share of the dough? Not we! We hike the tax levy, vote bonds, and woe betide the farmers who has any portion of land within the bounds of the community thus favored by New Deal bounty. Does he get his money back when he gets his government check for the corn or potatoes he has not planted? There is no way of knowing with absolute certainty, but it is a pretty safe bet that he does not. The last, and to my mind the moBt vital count against the agricultural New Deal, is its tendency to pass from voluntary co-operation to com­ pulsory compliance, as witnessed by the Candhead Cotton Act, the To- ' bacco Act, the Potato Control Act. The boycott and the blacklist have been declared illegal in America, but before the Supreme Court decision on AAA the New Dealers had writ­ ten a boycott and blacklist para­ graph into every 1936-37 corn hog contrect. by providing that no bene­ ficiary could buy hogs from or. sell them to a non-signer.

When the present board of Re­ publican county commissioners took over the county government from the democratic board four years ago they found the county in debt in the sum of $452 ,900 . At that time the tax rate was 69c. with a total taxable property of $12 231, lit. Threeyearsagothe taxable property was brought down to $10 ,- 024 ,183. This necessitated raising the county tax from 69 to 79 cents on the JS100 . With this increased rate the taxpayers only paid $84.- 679 03 , as against $107 ,528.05 , which saved them the sum of #22,- 849.02 . Two years ago the tax rate was reduced to 76 cents. The present rate is 74 cents During these four years the commissioners have reduced the county debt from $452,900 1 0 $369,600 . In four years they have reduced the in debtedness of the county $83,300 . If the commissioners will continue to carry on the good work, Davie will be completely free from debt within the next twenty years. Be­ fore casting your vote on Nov. 3rd, study these figures and see if your present board of county commis sioners don’t deserve re election. Kappa News.

CHAPTER VII—Continued — 11— “That’s where we got caught—right there,” cried the barber. “We got back to the ponies an* had to cut across a piece of burned timber to get out. A dead limb from one of the trees fell on me. I went down with the pony. When I kicked loose, the pony bolted, an’ when I tried to get up, my leg was broke. “There we was, Doc. Panama’s pony couldn’t carry double. The Are was creepin' up on two sides of us. It was terrible, Doc—that’s ail a man can say, just terrible. We couldn’t hardly hear us talk. Panama picked me up to set me on his pony. ‘No!’ I yells. 'It won't do, Panama, an’ you know it. I’m done, Panama. Save yourself. Iou ain’t got a minute to lose. Get back on your horse and run for it.’ “ ‘Shut up, Jake,’ Panama yells. ‘Get up on that pony!' I tried to fight it out with him—but I was crazy with pain 'n' couldn’t handle myself, neither. He lifted me on his pony, stuck the lines in my hands. 'Beat it,’ he yelled. ‘What’ll you do?’ says I. ‘I’ve KOt good legs. I’ll run,’ he says." A melancholy procession took the desert road that night for Sleepy Cat. Iu the wagon lay Panama ; beside -him • lay his injured friend, Spotts—Jake would have it no other way. In town, next day, the boys tried vainly to figure out some sort of a de­ cent burial service for Panama. The best colBn to be had in Medicine Bend was ordered by telegraph to reach Sleepy Cat on train Number One. “I’ve got it," exclaimed JefE Sollers, who was sitting ucar Carpy. He slapped the doctor’s knee. ‘‘We’ll have the old Doc himself make a few re­ marks over Panama." ‘‘No.’’ “Yes.” “Hell, no! I won’t do it,” growled Carpy. They_all set on him. - "Tes, you will.” Carpy was inflexible. “Boys, you might just as well shut'up." “But why won’t you?” “Well, I tell you. I’m just another bum, like poor Panama—that’s all. You needn’t yell—I know. The way I look at it is this: Nothing in Panama’s life became him like the leaving of it Surely no man could die a nobler death than Panama’s. Now I want to see a man who lives a life like Panama’s death say a few words over Panama, and I’m going to try to get him to do it. Who? The old padre over on the Reservation.” “But he won’t do it. Panama didn’t belong to his church!” “That doesn’t make a d—d bit of difference, boys. The padre knew Panama. He knows me. He will do it—if we’re lucky enough to catch him at home and not away fifty miles on a sick call. I’ve done a few things for Padre Cataldo. I know the man inside and out. Dr. Carpy called up the padre and was lucky. At least the padre was at home. As to his coming—that was something else again. Carpy held him long on the wire; he pleaded ear­ nestly. At last he agreed to come. ! At eight o’clock, the welcome splut­ ter of the dilapidated engine was heard outside. The padre, a Gunlock buck chauffeur, and a little Indian boy of ten or twelve disembarked, and the re ception committee welcomed the guest of honor to the hotel office—long well filled. And headed by the clergyman and the little fellow, the growing crowd straggled down the street to Harry Tenison’s, where poor Panama lay in state on the rear-most of the pool tables. Padre Cataldo, laying aside his hat and his overcoat of many patches, made the sign of the cross, knelt a moment in silent prayer, and,, standing behind the pool table on which Pan­ ama lay In his coffin, spoke clearly and simply. “Boys,” said the old priest, “this looks like a queer place for a padre; perhaps a queer job. But I’ve knowu Bill Hayes a good many years. I knew him in his wildest days. And I’ve known him for the last three years, since he turned over a new leaf. “Bill used to visit me and talk with me. It was something I said to him once, so he told me, that started him thinking. ‘What’s all this about—this greedy, rotten old world?’ he asked him- “That doesn’t make a damned bit of ' all to think about?’ “BUI was not a follower of my faith ->-you know .th at • But : he believed Jesus Christ, to be the Son of Godi and for three years he has tried the best he could to keep his commandments and persuade the boys up and down the line to do the same. He told me he wanted to try to do right where he had spent his life trying to do wrong. “Naturally, I never heard' Bill preach. But I have been - told what eloquent and sincere sermons he did preach. But out there In. those forgot­ ten ;. hills, facingrT-no,- not facing but ' embracing—a Jreadfui Jeath 1 . .Bill preached a deathless sermon, for he took his next from the Jips of God himself. And wherever you bury him, boys, let the words of that test be graven on his tomb : “ ‘Greater love than this no man bath, that a man lay down Iiis life for his friends.’” The lull In the fire threat Issued in fresh dangers to the hill ranches. A blaze starting up anew on the reser­ vation cut-over lands crept north on the very night that Panama was bur­ ied. With what aid she could bring, Jane rode next morning over to her neigh­ bor’s only to find the situation critical. By noon the fire fighters were being driven back all ‘along the line. But, loath to abandon hope of saving the ranch buildings, the men fought till Denison, riding among them, warned them to look first to their own safety. Riding then fast to the ranch house, he found Jane consulting with Quong In the kitchen. “I must think of your safety. .Tane," he said, “It is getting too close to dan­ ger here. You and Quong must go home.” “Bill, is it that bad?” “We might as well face the truth. It’s not safe here for you. You must go, and qnlckly. Are your ponies sad­ dled?" “They are.” “Then take Quong and mount up.” Jane's eyes softened. They fell be­ fore his. "I just hate to go, Bill,” she pouted, tantalizingly. “It sems like de­ serting a friend.” “It isn’t, Jane. You may Imagine, girl, how I hate to send you away. But you know who I’m thinking of, don’t you?” “You mustn’t think too much of any­ body but yourself just now. Bill,” she murmured. “I do some thinking my­ self these days.” Quong had been called. Always fore­ handed, without any words he was winking and blinking in his saddle. Denison handed Jane her lines. She leaned toward him and spoke low: N “We Must Do Some More Running Ourselves, Jane.” “Bill, will you promise me, solemnly, one thing?” “Promise you anything, girl.” “Solemnly, Bill?” “Solemnly. What is it?’’ “That you’ll think first for your own safety. Now promise!” “I promise, Jane.” “For my sake, Bill?" “Do you mean that?” “I do mean it.” “God bless you. If the buildings go, I’ll ride over to report tomorrow.” The wind died that night -with the bloodshot sun, as if to leave In the hearts of its victims a faint hope of escape from the worst of its ravages. Jane slept-so well that she opened her eyes In the heavy air of daybreak, conscience-stricken at having resled peacefully during the hours in which her neighbor might have been burned out. She dressed, ate Quong’s hurried breakfast, saddled her pony, and set out for Denison’s, directing Quong to follow as soon as he could. The smoke grew mare dense as she neared the ridge, and she reluctantly turned about for home and told Quong of her failure and that she would ride up into the high hills to try to see what was going on. She remounted and rode up the Di­ vide trail. Tlie smoke was so dense that it cut off hope of seeing the valley, and, spurred by the determina­ tion to see by riding higher, she rode on and on till she found herself at the foot of Gunlock Knob. Jane headed ths pony up the mountain. The sum­ mit had never seemed so hard to reach, but, panting and exhausted, the pony carried Jane to the summit, and she rode out on the table to look. The scene below was terrifying. Huge clouds of smoke billowed and spread, only to boil np anew-and race on the wind. It seemed as if the whoie coun- try were In flames. Here and there -tongues of; fire shot from the rolling smoke Jane sat the pony, fear-stricken and immovable, watching and hoping for a rift In the angry clouds that would reveal the ranch buildings. None came. . Weary, at length, and depressed, Jane tnrned her , pony’s head to ride home. Gunlock itself might be in dan­ ger. Even: the pony took -the downward trail .reluctantly,. Ja1Be could not tell why .untHirrounding a shoulder of the Knob, she saw below her a fire sweep­ ing across the trail she was following- Worse than that, the fire was spurting through the brush, up the mountain, in front of her. The pony balked. Thoroughly frightened, Jane turned him up the narrow trail and headed for the sum m it Even the few moments she bad been away from the top had changed -the scene. Overwhelmed with ,consterna­ tion, she began to'think anew of her' own safety. She urged the pony swift­ ly down the trail again, hoping faintly to find-some hidden by-pass. Her path was blocked. The hot air of the fire below was catching at her throat; gusts of smoke burned into her eyes. She reined about to return, despairing, to the summit. . ... , • Once again the level rock' afforded her temporary refuge. She dismounted. The pony was growing unmanageable. He snorted, stamped, flung bis head np and down and chewed frantically at his b it Hope deserted her. She. sank to her knees and fell forward, covering her face with her arms. . For a moment her mind was a blank. She heard nothing of a frantic calling of her name, when a singed and black­ ened horseman spurred and lashed bis pony toward her, sprang from the sad­ dle, and caught'her np In his arms. . “Jane!" he cried, as he looked into her face and shook her In his effort to restore consciousness. “Jane! Open your eyes! Speak to me! It’s Bill, Jane, BUI! Can’t you hear me? Speak!” Her eyes opened; she looked In a daze at him. “It’s Bill, Jane!” - She threw her arms convulsively around his neck. “Ob, Bill, Bill I W hat can we do? Must we die, Bill, In this horror?” “No!” he exclaimed. “We can get through. But we mustn’t lose a min­ ute, not a second.. Come!"; He half carried her to an edge of the summit, where a rock crevice gave a slight footing a few feet below. Into this he lowered himself and raised his arms to Jane. “But the horses, BUI?” she cried. “Leave them,” he called back. “They may escape. There’s no footing for horses where we’re going. Quick, Jane I Jum p!” He caught her In his'arm s, steadied tier, showed her how to secure herself an the precarious footing, and lowered himself to another slender ledge to brace himself, bade her spring, and caught her again in his arms. Her heart beat so violently, he seemed to feel It as she hugged close to him. There was barely room for the two to stand. “Keep cool, Jane. We can make it, but be very, very careful of your footing, darling Jane. The fire hasn’t touched this side of the mountain yet, but If yon fell it' would be a hundred feet. Be everlast­ ingly sure of every step, won’t you? Never move until I tell you.”- Spurned to superhtiinap.'effort, Deni­ son achieved the almost Impossible, and by sliding, clinging with:-fingers, hands'and arms, and by carefully us­ ing bis Iarlat be managed to bring Jane down unharmed to the foot; of the precipitous wall that bad given him the bare chance to save her life. He held out his arm s to catch her for the final jump. “BUI!” she exclaimed, breathing bard and looking up' In sheer amazement at the precipice down which be had. brought her. “How did we ever get down there alive?" He was still very anxious—the wrinkled veins of his smoked forehead plainly mirrored th a t She waited for orders. “We must run through that grove of quaking asp and try to get away from the Knob. This wilt all be burning In a few minutes. Are you able to run?" ‘T il bet I can run faster than yon, BUI.” The laughing tone of; her words thrilled and cheered him. He knew better than she what still lay between them and safety. They hastened on through the light tim ber; then, running a broad shoulder, they saw a vast pan­ orama pf smoke, lighted In places by flames where the fires had wrought destruction In the virgin pine forests along the mountain slope. Denison burried on, Jane briskly keeping pace with him. But when they neared, the smoking^ pine, 'She felt dis­ mayed. “Bill, it’s all on fire, yet—look at the little blazes. See the ground pine, and the trees are smoking and burning yet. Bill! See the deer running oyer there—mercy, those are bear running, too—why, every animal yon can think of—” Jane was looking toward an opening in the pines,.half a mile away. It was a precipitous flight of the animal life of a whole mountainside from the wrath of a forest fire. .!‘They’d better run,”, said.,Denison grimly. “We must do some more run­ ning ourselves, Jane There’s very lit­ tle danger crossing this strip. But I want to get across it quick." They dashed into the fire area to­ gether. Little tongues of flame darted from the still burning ground, but nothing to threaten Jane’s stout laced boots or leather trousers. They crossed the" burned strip and broke together down a long slope -that bordered another forest of pine. Denison paused and looked anxious­ ly at Jane. “How are you, standing It girl?” She was panting, but game. Her high-colored cheeks, the flashing brightness of her eyes, her parted eag- er.-.liM,- made her a pictun*. [.'I' ' "Fine, Bill. Are we ’out of danger?” They were standing together In the wind and smoke that swirled and ed­ died up the mountain. His band was at her back as she leaned on his arm. Perhaps overwhelmed by the thought of what tie must say, , he hugged her close and, drawing her. unresisting IIps to his own, held them In a long kiss. “I wish we were, Jane^ We’re going only now into danger^-I . wish weren't so,; Jape.” *■. - (TOrBE CONTltiVEDt.

C. f'V Washington.—Several years ago I expressed in these columns the con- n _... viction that oneUneThmg thing Arilerica Needed needed was a con- gress which would cease attempting to amend the law of supply and demand. The observation was made in the midst of the most depressed economic con­ ditions that modern times had known and it brought down upon my head a vast amount of criticism. Readers wrote me at length about the stupidity that I had displayed by making such a statement. Reference to that circumstance is made here at this time, because it is apropos again. It is apropos be­ cause we are in a political cam­ paign ouf of which will come either the re-election of Franklin D. Roose­ velt or the election of - Governor Landon of Kansas. The results of this political campaign are going to hinge to a considerable extent on the attitude of the farmers of this country and if there is one segment of the American economic structure to whom the law of supply and de­ mand means more, than to another, it is to the farmers. Now, Democratic spokesmen are going about the country talking about soil conservation, about relief for the farmers, about anything and everything that will give the farm­ ers money. Republican spokesmen are shout­ ing and waving their arms with other propositions to aid the farm­ er. Some of them probably are workable, and if they are workable they must be considered construc­ tive.But the point I am trying to make is that in the case of either can­ didate, there is still too much of the idea of the superficial, of surface help, for agriculture. In other words, the programs still take into account some circumvention of the law of supply and demand. That statement is not wholly true of Gov­ ernor Landon’s farm program, but unless the New Dealers come for­ ward with more than they have •thus far advanced, I think it can be said their program ofiers noth­ ing more than a continued raid On the Treasury of the United States with no plans' at all for correcting underlying conditions. There was one phase of Governor Landon’s program, as advanced in speeches at Des Moines, Iowa and Minneapolis, Minn, that appealed to me. Brushing aside verbiage and detail, Governor Landon basically has in mind, apparently, a desire to get the government out of the farmer’s hair. He seems convinced that there are many things, which the farmers would like to *do for themselves and will do for them­ selves if the machinery upon which they can operate is made available. He proposes, for example, to seek legislation that will enable the farm­ ers to finance themselves through borrowing from commercial agen­ cies, banks and trust companies, in­ stead of from the government. With that I agree to the fullest. It means simply that farmers again can be masters of their own souls as well as the crops which they grow for it, puts them in a position to sell when they want to sell, without the necessity for asking permission from a bureaucrat in Washington. It means further that no bureaucrat in Washington can issue an order, to that farmer that he must dispose of his stored crop.It seems to me as well that any­ one who analyzes the present regi­ mentation of the farmers from Washington must recognize that which has always been true: Every time the government, which means politicians, attempts to mess into private business, that private busi­ ness goes from bad to worse and it does not matter how bad it yas when bureaucrats took hold. It will be worse thereafter.• • * I have been wondering, however, how far Mr. Landon will go in en­couragement of,Hits Root of the family type FarmProblem farms. You will remember that he spoke at length of family type farms in his Des Moines address. Person­ ally, I feel that he hit upon a very important point. I think it is im­ portant because it strikes at the root of the farm problem.In discussing help for the man who owns or wants to own a small farm, Governor Landon surely is proposing a program that will serve this nation well because no nation whose farms are widely owned by those who operate them can beheaded toward: fascism or commun­ ism. I do not know how the Gov­ ernor as President will be able to put the federal government behind such a program, but it is to be assumed that he had defimte ideas on the subject or he would not have boldly stated his position. My hope is that it can be done not with government money, but withmoney supplied from private instttotions since there has been too much gov-erment c o m p e titio n with business of the nation already. Further, regret­ ful as it is, the federal government has not and cannot have any func­tion in that field-for the reason that it inevitably leads further into pol­ itics, further into waste and the eventual destruction of the people whom the demagogues claim they are helping. The reason I have advocated this action so strongly is the fact that there are too many tenant farmerE in the United States now, far too many. It is fundamental, in my opinion, that this nation can get on with the present trend. It is sad, but it is true, that there .are about forty per cent of our farms now operated by tenants. In other words, one out of less than three farms in the United States is worked by a man who does not own it.•' * • Some information was made pub­ lic the other day to the effect that » 85 per cent of thefress for newspapers of the London country were sup­ porting Governor Landon as against President Roose­ velt. in this campaign. , I do not know the actual percentage and I do not vouch for the figures I have reported to you. But of this I am certain: I believe that Governor Landon does have more editorial support than any presidential nom­ inee has had in the last six cam­ paigns, with the exception of Pres­ident Roosevelt as a candidate in 1932. It has been interesting to watch the various important independent newspapers as they have studied the two candidates this year and have reached conclusions as to the nominee they will support. I am not now referring to hide-bound Re­ publican papers, nor to newspapers that could normally bfc-expected to support the more conservative of the two candidates. I am thinking of independent. or distinctly ..Dem­ ocratic newspapers that have an­nounced their opposition to the Roosevelt cause. Let me mention a few of them: The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Omaha World Herald, the’Baltimore Sun, to men­ tion only three. * • • : ^There was a great newspaper, one of- the greatest, that took a stand „ , for PresidentNew York Boosevelt a few Times days ago. I re­ fer to the New York Times. No one can ever say that the New York Times ever has failed to arrive at its conclusions without giving all factors concerned careful study. I am saying by this that the Nevr York Times is honest and sincere. But I must say at the same time that the New York Times has* a background as an in­stitution and it has a clientele of readers for whom it speaks and its accession .to the Roosevelt cause is a perfectly natural position for it to take. For years the New York Times has contended that America should participate to a greater ex­ tent in world affairs. It has con­tended,without exception, for policies of an internationalism with which a great many thinking people dis­ agree. Its view, concretely, appears to be that we cannot correct de­ pression conditions unless th e United States as a nation whole­ heartedly moves in the circle of governments that rule Europe and Asia, ' especially in matters of an economic character. I do not know what Governor L andon’s pronouncements on foreign policy are going to be. But I have observed the policies that have had the backing of the New York Times over a number of years and it seems to me that they re­ sult in greater benefits to a limited class than to the country as a whole. I am not a rabble rouser; I do not link the New York Times with the money-changers of Wall street as the demagogues describe them. It is just the perspective that I have gained of the whole picture since I have no-axes to grind. In the case of those newspapers that have turned against Mr. Roose­velt, there is to some extent a con­sideration of local interests, circum­stances of concern to the communi­ties which they serve, just as in the case, of the New York Times. The point is, however, that in the case of newspapers turning against Mr. Roosevelt, their new positions are predicated on what appears to me to be traditional . American bases. That is to say, they are adhering to the principles which I believe to have been the foundation stones of American history. I have no quarrel with the; attitude of that school ot thought that' ■ believes? we should engage further in interna­ tional affairs than we have done. It is their conviction and they have a right to it. Yet, it is1 not mine.,I have said may times in. these columns that I will support any proposition that is good for America as a whole; . I -have contended con­ sistently for Americanism and the things which that means, and. I have argued always fo r sound gov* erment.......(0 Western Kewspaper Union. . - ThelltarilUhootf ((/] Tales and Traditions from American Political Histoty FRANK E. HAGENAHO ELMO SCOTT WATSON FARMERS’ CHAMPION Q F ALL the leaders of third par- ty movements, probably no one has caused the two major par­ ties more concern than did Gen. James B. Weaver of Iowa. For. he was the nominee of two new par­ ties which, at two different periods in our history, capitalized on the unrest of the farm vote and in one case he definitely contributed to the overthrow of the party in pow­er. Weaver was first the standard- bearer for the Greenbackers, a party which came into existence in 1868 because of the dissatisfaction of the farmers with the financial policies of Grant’s administration. They were inflationists who de­ manded that a large amount of paper money be issued without re­gard to specie payment. They re­ ceived, their name ■ from the fact that legal-tender notes were print­ed in green and called greenbacks. In the campaign of 1876 they nom­ inated Peter Cooper, the New York philanthropist, but he polled only 80,000 popular votes and did not receive a single electoral vote. In the congressional elections of 1878 the Greenbackers cast a mil­lion votes and the Republicans ip. power looked apprehensively to toe' presidential campaign of 1880, especially when the Greenbackers nominated a man from the agri­ cultural West. But their fears were groundless, for toe Green­backers could muster only a little more than 300,000 vdtes and, al­ though Garfield won over Hancock by less than 10,000 popular votes, he got 214 electoral votes to his opponent’s 155. ' Twelve years later the Republi­cans had much more to worry ,over when Weaver bobbed up again, this time as the nominee of the. Popu­list or People’s party which de­ clared for free silver, public own­ ership of monopolies, postal sav­ ings banks and an income tax. In toe state and congressional elec­ tions of 1890 they carried the leg­ islatures of Kansas and Nebraska, elected nine members of congress and forced 34 others, Democrats and' Republicans, to pledge them­selves to carry out Populist ideas. In toe presidential campaign of •1892 'Weaver polled • more- than 1,000,000 votes in toe West and South and corralled 22 electoral 'votes. 'The Populists also carried; several state legislatures and sent five senators to Washington. “SMITH FOR PRESIDENT” SINCE the United States has more people bearing the name of Smith than any other family name, it is only natural perhaps that there should have been more presidential candidates by that name than any other. The first was Joseph E. Smith, founder of toe Church of Latter Day Saints and prophet of the Mor­ mon religion, who in 1844 con­ demned' toe policies of both the Whig and the Democratic parties and announced ids candidacy for the presidency. However, his mar­ tyrdom at the hands of an Illinois mob in Jime of that year cut short his political career. Four years later another Smith was in the field as a candidate— Gerrit Smith, the New York philan­ thropist, who was one of the found­ ers of the Liberty party in 1840 and its candidate for President in 1848. In that year he was also in­ dorsed for toe presidency by the Industrial Congress at its conven­ tion in Philadelphia. Again in 1852 Smith was toe candidate of the Liberty party and again he was indorsed by another group, this time by the Land Reformers. In neither case did Smith or his par­ ty figure very prominently in the election.In 1876 there was another one of the name in toe presidential race. He was Green Clay Smith, a na­ tive of Kentucky, a veteran of toe Mexican and Civil wars, rising to the rank of brigadier-general in toe Union army before resigning to take his seat in congress to which he had been elected .while in toe field. Re-elected to congress, he resigned to become the second ter­ ritorial governor of Montana. Aft-- er three years of service in toe West he resigned to enter the min­ istry of the Baptist church in Washington. Soon afterwards he was chosen as toe first presidential nominee of toe modem Prohibi­ tion party. Just as this “dry” Smith failed to win in 1876, so> did a “wet1 Smito fail to win half a century lat­ er. For Alfred E. Smith, the Dem­ ocratic candidate in 1928, suffered toe fate of all his predecessors— defeat. ^ W estern'N ew spaper U nion. , Famous Belgian Cathedral • Malines has much to interest visi­ tors but the Cathedral of.

P u t t e r in g A r o u n d t h e H o u s e — ■ Time-Wasting Work of Putting Away Things Others Have Used YZfHEN a family is orderly, .7 ’ no one. has to do much put* tering about. When toe members are not particular where they put their things, it becomes the un desirable duty of some person to spend much time in just this very thing, puttering. Hours are wasted daily in such trivialities as gathering up new spapers spread about, picking up and put­ ting away gloves, hats, scissors, thimbles, pencils, etc. Whatever it may be that has been in use, and not put away by the user, or has been put in the wrong place, must be placed where it belongs or the house would re­ flect poor housekeeping. Nondescript Tasks. The time given to these non­ descript jobs should be given by those who leave the wOrk to others. Putting things away is part of toe job connected with using the things, just as much as getting toe things out, is part of it. The work is regular; and legitimate and only becomes an annoyance when left for toe wrong person to do. Left-Over Jobs. No person wants her time frit­ tered away doing toe left-over jobs of others.

From both the angle of the person who putters about and those who have to endure • toe annoyance of such activity, there should be some remedy found. Remedies Suggested. Mothers can teach, their chil­ dren to put their playthings away when through with them. This is toe first ■ step to take. Then she can instruct the little folk to put their outside things away when they come in from out­ doors. Children can get into the habit of orderliness by being made to realize that what they don’t do, has to be done by mother who is very busy and often too tired to do toe extra tasks. Affection will gain toe day. Breaking the Habit. Adults should consider how to break themselves of the repre­ hensible habit of leaving work they should do, to be completed by others. If they really deter­ mine to stop this bothersome fault, they will decrease the necessity of puttering about by the person who heartily dislikes toe work, but who, for the sake of order prefers to do it rather than have disorder around. © Bell Syndicate.— W NU Service. e ,SMILES Imprinted “Did you learn right from wrong at your mother’s knee?” “No, across my father’s.” Here Goes!

In the first day’s rioting between Fascists and the crowd that does not want fascism, hundreds were hurt. England is becoming modernized. One of her race track gambling- gangsters, murdered “American fashion” in the course of gangster business, was honored with a funer­ al that would make Chicago or New York stare. Mussolini does not believe that old “supply and demand” is neces­ sarily omnipotent. While cutting four per cent from the value of Ital­ ian money, he forbids any increase in prices, any rent increase for two years. That experiment will be watched with interest. The word “money,” most important in the world to many, has less real mean­ing than any other word in the dic­ tionary, nobody knowing anything about it. A new law in Paraguay compels every able-bodied man to work, whether he wants to or not. Here men that want jobs can’t get them. There men can get jobs, but don’t want them.The general idea is good, but if all able-bodied men had been com­ pelled to work always the human race would still be far back in the dark ages. One of the greatest Greeks said truly that bodily slav­ ery was necessary, because it gave leisure to a few, leisure made' thought possible and thought cre­ ated progress. If all men had worked hard, by compulson, there would have been no deliberate thinking. Slavery would be necessary now for tne world’s progress had not machines taken the place of slaves. Scientists of the Smithsonian In­stitution announce discovery by Dr. Hxdlicka in the Aleutian, islands, off the coast of Alaska, of a skull that once held the biggest brain on rec­ord, excepting that of the Russian novelist Turgenieff, who had a brain cavity of 2,030 cubic centimeters. The biggest American brain be­ longed to Daniel Webster, 2,000 cu­ bic centimeters. But brain size and weight are not everything. Beethoven, with a 1,750 cubic centimeter skull, will outlive in importance Webster, the French naturalist Cuvier, and other “big brains.” Adaptation to usefulness is the im­ portant thing. It is’ said that the eye of the eagle is twice as heavy as the eagle’s brain. Wine bottled in Germany here­ after will have, instead of a cork, a plug of German wood. To help make Germany indepen­ dent of the outside world, the use of cork, that does not grow in Ger­many, is forbidden. This will save 10 ,000,000 marks a year,* spent abroad for cork. German wood, according to au­ thorities, is cheaper, better, resists breakage, acid, alkali, and elimi­nates cork taste.One question is, will the wooden cork swell up at the lower end suf­ficiently to overcome the pressure of gas in a champagne bottle? At Jonesville, Va., Rev. T. Ander­ son, in a demonstration of faith, al­lowed poisonous serpents to bite him three times, assuring his congrega­ tion that they could not harm him. Acopperheadmoccasinsnakebit him twice on the right hand; a rattlesnake once on the left. Unfortunately Rev. Mr. Anderson, member of the Holiness persuasion, died soon afterward. ' News Review of Current Events the World Over Lewis Doesn’t See Peace in Federation of Labor Russia Resents Fascist A id G iven Spanish Rebels-^- M orm ons A ll OfE Dole. B y ED W A R D W. PIC K A R D © W estern Newspaper Union. L. Lewis T-ILLIam GREEN, president VV of the A, F. of L., who had just been calling on President Roosevelt at Hyde Park, N. Y., told the news- , papermen that, the prospects for peace between the warring factions in the fed­ eration were better and that those par­ticipating in the con­ troversy were be­coming “more tem­ perate.” Howevery that same evening John L. Lewis, the dynamic leader of the Committee for Industrial Organization, rather dashed the aforesaid prospects for peace. In Washington he laid down, as the only basis for restoration of peace in the ranks of organized labor, a program consisting of these two propositions: 1. Revocation by the executive council of the American Federa­ tion of Labor of the order sus­ pending ten C. I. G. unions on charges of insurrection. 2, Isolation of certain mass pro­ duction industries which would be organized strictly on Lewis’ “one big union” theory. It had been stated that David Dubinsky, head of one of the sus­ pended unions, had submitted a compromise peace proposal, but Lewis told the correspondents that he knew of no change in feeling be- between the battling factions; that he had made no move for peace and contemplated none; that the C. I. O. drive to unionize the steel industry was “proceeding satisfactorily" and that the Dubinsky proposal w as similar to the one previously offered to and rejected by the A. F. of L. council. POLITICAL expediency brought *■ about a strange- state of affairs in Minnesota. Fred Curtis and Patrick J. Delaney, respectively Demo­ cratic gubernatorial and senatorial nominees,, withdrew from the race in favor of the Farmer-Labor can­ didates in return for Farmer-Labor support for the re-election of Presi­dent Roosevelt. The members of the Democratic party throughout the state were rather dismayed by this action and some of the leaders pro­ tested vigorously. John E. Regan, the party’s 1934 gubernatorial candidate,, issued a statement asserting that Minnesota Democrats had traded votes and engineered “coalition of parties” be­ fore, but “never has there been an absolute sellout.” Alric Anderson, St. Paul attor­ney who was the Democratic candi­ date for attorney-general two years ago, marshaled his followers into the “Democrats-for-Nelson Club.” Martin A. Nelson is the Republican gubernatorial candidate.Joseph Wolf, former national committeeman, and Judge J. D. F. lneighen, state central committee chairman, led that group of Demo­ crats, supporting both Farmer-Labor candidates and President Roosevelt. We go up and down quickly In the Umted States, particularly in new enterprises. William Fox, once one of the most energetic, successful of moving picture men, now a bank­ rupt, tells the court that In 1930 he was worth one hundred million dol­lars; now he has only “odds and ends,” meaning only a few hundred thousands, here and there. A TTACKING abuse of the frank- x ^ ing privilege, whicfi has been practiced by followers of any and all parties when they got the chance, Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Mich­ igan proposes that congress pass leg­ islation that will put a stop to this evil, “for the sake upon the one hand’ of the postal revenue- and for the- sake, on the other, of political fair play.” ; When John G. _ tWinant resigned Wmant from the social security board, his letter to the President was a strong pro - New Deal document. It was printed by the press bureau of the social security board and franked to a large mailing list, and Senator Vandenberg asked Mr. Wihant whether he thought that was a legit­imate use of the franking privilege. Mr. Winant replied promptly that, lest there be any question of'the propriety of the matter, he had paid the mailing costs.'This atti­ tude was warmly commended by Senator Vandehberg, as it must be by all good citizens. ' Our South American neighbor, Nicaragua, forbids all slot ma­chines and other gambling devices* m that country. AU must be de­ stroyed. ' ■ Nicaragua’s government: sayk such machines teach children to gamble, and their owners are para­sites of the worst kind, making a profit of -88 cents on every dollar C &las Features eradicate, u * . LI ELP. given the Spanish insur- ■ gents by Fascist countries so enraged soviet Russia that she gave notice that, unless it ceased she would free herself from any obli­ gations to the agreement for neu­ trality. The representatives of the 27 nations on the international com­mittee of non: - intervention in the Spanish war were about to meet in London, and Moscow’s- challenge caused a real sensation. Moiseyvich Ragan, soviet delegate-on the com­ mittee, specifically named Portugal; Itely and Germany as the offenders and called -for an investigation. It is believed that if • Russia . is not satisfied m this matter she -will send airplanes , nnd other war material to the. Spanish government. Ragan’s communication made the direct charges that German air­ planes reached the Spanish rebels from Germany, that poison gas reached the rebels from Italy, and that Portugal permitted its frontier to be used by the rebels.Spanish Fascists pushed^ their lines so closely around Madrid that they called on the government to surrender the capital immediately and thus save it from a destructive bombardment, An airplane fleet showered the city with circulars tell­ ing the citizens that further resist­ance was useless. One of the most threatening of General Franco’s advances was directed at Aran- juez, whose capture would cut off Madrid’s food supply from the Med­ iterranean. The government claimed that an army of loyalist miners had fought its way to the center of Oviedo against the desperate resistance of the rebel defenders. Gen. Frmicisco Franco, chief of the insurgents, decreed a Fascist dictatorship and created a “junta of state" which will govern subject to his will. In his first statement of policy, Franco assured workers they would be "protected against the ills of capitalism and that steps would be taken, to regulate favor­ able working hours.” CIX months ago the Latter ° Day Saints church—otherwise the Mormons—inaugurated a pro­ gram to make every able bodied member self-sup­ porting by October I. In the great tab­ ernacle at Salt Lake City Heber J. Grant, president of the church, told an au­dience of thousands that' the plan had succeeded and that the drive had taken all the needy mem­ bers off public re­ lief. The church has consistently opposed “pay without work.” In reading his report President Grant took occa­ sion ’ to criticize the Townsend pen-* sibn plan and government control', of crops, and he warned the mem­ bers to avoid “political entangle­ ments.” Under the church relief drive, land was leased and the needy provided with implements for tilling. Wom­ ens groups have made clothes and bedding. Members have contributed the financial equivalent of two meals monthly to a special fund. In scattered storehouses, Mr. Grant reported, supplies have been laid up in generous quantities for distribution among the needy who helped produce them.Under the program, the; speaker declares, “the curse of idleness would be done away with, the evils of a dole abolished, and independ­ ence, thrift, and self-respect will be once more established amongst our people.” A S THE time for the expiration of x^the Washington naval treaty draws nearer, the utterances of Sec­ retary of the Navy Swanson, take on more and more the nature of sharp warnings to Japan not to get too gay in the Pacific. In a press con­ ference the other day he said: "’Fortifications are intended to an­swer fortifications. One menace must be met by another menace.” And he gave notice that the navy should be ready to do the necessary meeting. About Ae same time the State department was studying a proposi­ tion, made to it and to Japan by Great Britain, for an extension of the treaty pledge of the three nations not to build new fortifications or naval bases in certain of their Paci­ fic possessions. In Tokio it was said the government might agree to this provided certain changes were made giving Japan “fairer” treatment in the light of an altered international situation. Heber J. Grant A CCUSED of complicity Sn the plot against Dictator Stalin for which 16 prominent Russians .were executed in August, Karl Radek, brilliant journalist, is under arrest and in- danger of losing his life. He disappeared just after the .execu­tions of the others, but was caught a few days. ago. . In his last article; published in the official newspaper Izvestia, Ra- :dek’ confessed his. unfaithfulness to the .Communist party,-but defended himself with a vitriolic attack on Trotzky and .claimed -he. had “ex­piated” his sins by foiling Trotzky’s attempted sabotage of the Stalin re­ gime. KURT BJORKVALL, Swedish aviator; made an attempt to-fly alone from New York to Stockholm. Thirty-two hours after the start he was picked up from the ocean about one-hundred' miles off the coast of Ireland. Supposedly ne had run short of fuel.- The rescue was made by a French-trawler; The plane was bad­ ly damaged-and was. abandoned. T TNITED STATES DISTRICT U JUDGE C. B. KENNEMER of Montgomery, Ala., issued an order jolting collection in Alabama of a one per cent payroll tax to finance the unemployment program. The result, it is expected, will be a clear cut test of the validity of the New Deal’s social security%ct, for law­ yers had no doubt the case would be' carried to the United States Su­ preme court. The order was granted tee Gulf States Steel corporation of Gadsden, Ala., on a plea that the unemployment insurance program, operated in co-operation with the federal government, violates bote state and federal constitutions. TESSE ISADOR STRAUS, mer- chant prince and, until his resig­ nation last August, American ambas­ sador to France, passed away in — — 1 New York home at the age of sixty- 1, I four. The immedi­ ate cause of death i i ^ r 1*Bl J ■ B H was pneumonia, but Mr. Straus had been In ill health for some -w time, this being the ■Atf reason for his re­tirement from the ambassadorship. Graduating from . —, „ Harvard in 1893, Mr.JesseL Straus gtraus began work as a bank clerk. In 1896 he ob­ tained employment with R. H. Macy & Co., big New York department store, and by 1919 was its presi­ dent, holding that' position until he was given the Paris post by Presi­ dent Roosevelt in 1933. He was a Democrat and was a member of the board of overseers of Harvard and of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. He maintained a country estate at Mount Kisco, N. Y., as well as a city apartment. P OLLOWIN G the example set by ‘ France and other countries, the Italian cabinet voted to devalue the lira, setting its value at approxi­ mately 5.2 cents, as compared with the latest previous figure of 7.6 cents. The cabinet also let it be known that it would take action to prevent rent and price increases; and it voted a new 5 Per cent capital levy to which property owners are obliged to subscribe to the extent of 5 per cent of their wealth. The gold value of the lira was placed at 4.677 grams of gold for each 100 lire. Gold reserves of the Bank of Italy will be revalued on the basis of the new lira With the surplus to be placed at the disposition of the treasury. ETtANCE may be on the verge of I a civil war between Communists and Fascists comparable to the ter­ rible. conflict in Spain. In Paris desperate fighting already has' be­ gun. The Reds, ' numbering many thousands, and the nationalists, un­ der orders from Col. Francois de la Rocque whose Croix de Feux or­ganization was disbanded by the government, undertook rival dem­ onstrations; and the result was a day-long series of street battles in which hundreds were wounded. Or­ der was finally restored for the time being by a force of 12,000 re­ publican guards and police. In London, also, there wat -a big riot in which a hundred persons were injured. Sir Oswald Mosley’s Black Shirts, a Fascist organiza­tion, planned a parade but Com­ munists and Socialists numbering 100,000 were determined to prevent it and battled with a big force of east end police to get at their ene­ mies. The authorities forbade the parade as scheduled but the oppos­ ing mobs got together in .various localities and fought desperately. RESIDENTS of Frankfort, Ky., D dropped work and politics for three days and, with thousands of guests, celebrated the sesquicenten- nial of their pretty city. A pioneer touch was given the affair by the arrival of many families from other parts of Kentucky in horse-drawn vehicles and on horseback. There were historical parades and serv­ ices, an old-fashioned burgoo feast, and a formal banquet at which ad­ dresses were delivered by Admiral Hugh Rodman of the navy and Gov­ ernor Chandler of Kentucky.

Lesson for October 25 CHRISTIANITY AS LOVE LESSON tsacr—Acte 18:1-4; I Corinth­ ians 13.GOLDEN TEXT—And now abldeth faith, hope, charily (love), these three; but the greatest of these is charity (love). I Cor. 13:13.FRIhlARY TOPIC—Why Paul Was Not Afraid.JUNIOR TOPIC—Courage In the Night. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —What Christian Love Is and Does. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Love, the Law of Life. By way of Athens the apostle Paul and his . co-workers came to Cor­ inth, one of the great commercial and social centers of Greece It was a city known for its .magnifi­ cent architecture and its patronage of the fine arts, but even more Widely known for its abandonment to vice and wickedness. Here Paul, the apostle of faith, demonstrated that his faith was rooted te love, and it was to the Oiristians who were dwelling to this infamous spot of corruption that he addressed his supremely pure and beautiful dis­ course on love. The first portion of our lesson finds Paul at Corinth, and provides an introduction to the study of the love chapter, from I Corinthians by showing from his .experience that I. Love Is a Fact, Not a Theory (Acts 18:1-4).The man whom we noW recognize as perhaps the greatest preacher and teacher of Christian truth who ever followed the Lord Jesus Christ ‘came to Corinth.” That great and busy city in all probability knew nothing of his 'arrival and cared nothing for his message. No one met the distinguished messenger of God. and received him into a home of comfort and honor. But God had-not forgotten him. For we read that Paul “found a certain Jew”—a convert to Christ, and his noble wife, and “abode with them.” Persecution had. sent Aquila to Corinth, and he was there for Paul to find. And the humility of loving service expresses itself further te the fact that the one who was to bring Corinth the glorious message of the gospel did so at his own cost. He labored with his hands at the trade which he, as every Jewish boy, had been taught by his father, Christianity does not ask, • “What will ye give me?” but “Hov much can I give?” In his first letter to the church which grew up at Corinth we find the ,enexhaustibly rich chapter in which Paul so fittingly describes true Christian love. It is impossible in any short discussion of this pas­ sage to make a complete study of it, but we note H. Four Truths About Love (I Cor. 13:1-13). I. Love is superior to the other graces (w. 1-3). Life has many excellent gifts and men seek after them. How do they compare with love? Glowing elo­ quence, the far-seeing eye of the prophet, mountain-moving faith, self-sacrifice—without love they all lose their worth; in fact they are nothing. AU the attainments of men apart from Christ are vain and empty. 2. Love is necessary to the other graces (w. 4-7). There is a sense in which love Is not so much a grace in itself as the underlying and motivating power, which shows te every fine and noble expression of Christian character, Study these verses to see how patiently and unselfishly love works. "3;, Love is permanent; other graces fail (vv. 8-12). - Some gifts wiU cease, for there win no. longer be any need for them. They are temporary fe their value or simply a means to an end. =But love—it began with God te eternity and will go on with him through eternity. Why then do we labor and seek after these other graces so diligently and neglect the one grace which is above them aU, for 4. Love is supreme (v. 13). Even over those.; other graces- which with love wUl abide, namely, faith and hope, love stands su­ preme. It is the fundamental of aU fundamentals. Without it aU else is empty and futile. And let'us remember, this is not pious theory; it is fact and to be translated into daily life.' UwtUaUips Wounds and hardships provoke our courage, and when our fortunes the lowest; our wits and mmds are .commonly at the best.' —Lharron. Common.

Tne customs of the people are vanity, remarked Jedemiah. In the midst of the Atlantic is the Sargossa sea, where great ships become en­ tangled in the seaweed and are for­ ever motionless.. Following customs we become entangled in the midst of the ocean and life’s adventure ends. Conservatism is ordinarily a cloak for cowardice. The average church member is a Merovingian. At this someone will say, O the preacher has been delving in ancient heresies or reading upon these weird modern movements. No, not that. The Merovingians were kings of France. They obtained the power and thought to keep it by doing nothing. They lost it. But to history the Merov­ ingians are known as the do-nothings. Indifierenceis the besetting sin of most who read this. Not that you do wrong directly, but that you do nothing. You have a custom of not going to church Your excuses are childish and you do not have the intelligence to spend the time profitably other­ wise. You find no fault in .Christ, but you have a custom of not caring to listen to His word. You have a custom of not reading the Bible. You have no literary culture and no religious interest. Youacknowledge the Bible is the classic of the age3, but you follow your custom. You have a custom of not -giving to the church. Bread cast upon the waters returns at last as harvest, even though the sower of the grain has been carried by the tides beyond the farthest cataracts. Astudy of rec­ ords of giving in the past by Mocks­ ville churches when the people were relatively prosperous shows that this stinginess is no modern development. Wealthy people continually die in Mocksville without leaving th e church a penny; though any pastor could tell them how to do it. Money is given to . everything except the church, they claim to be loyal to. You have a custom—even though your money will not leave this world with you. You heap up money for others to waste, but you will not give it to God. You have a custom of trusting in “things” for happiness. You admit Jesus was correct when he insisted that a man’s life consi3teth not in things; but you follow our custom of expecting to buy a car, a radio, a frigidaire, and expensive clothes— and hea-en will dawn on us, You (admit the teachings of Jesus are the ideal of life; but you have a custom * of bringing your children up for the world, the flesh, and the devil, and destroying their'youthful ideals to further your greed, lust, pride. You have a custom of doing anything for a dollar. It is amazing the petti­ ness to which some people will stoop for fifty cents, the good they will leave undone for fear of losing a quarter. Fools still sell their birth­ right for a mess of pottage A man must live—that is a lie; against the sky there blazes high a cross that says, a man must die. People excuse themselves for doing evil, for making a living by ungodly ways, on .the ground that they have to live. 0 , no you don’t. If your life is a menace to man.and an offence to God. why live? There have always been men who did right in scorn of consequen­ ces. We venerate them as heroes— but the custom prevails of regarding existence as worth any crime. You have a custom of following the same old amusements, stupid or harmful or criminal. The stero-typed horse­ play and imbecility which character­ izes banquets, the pointless humor of conventions, the sheer dull dumb­ ness of most 80called entertainment —people will admit they look and act like fools—but follow . the custom Thesame old vanities arise in every century. Human nature is incurably stupid and human vanijiy unendingly exploited. I'recently read an eight hundred pagp Iife of Savonarola. It was very discouraging. Savonarola sought to reform Florence,; and was finally burned. And: the vanities, errors, amusements, and even argti ments he. tried to destroy are the same painful ,ones; prevalent today. You find no faulting Jesus’ teach- io&A^eacei^but you haveva'CuBtilJiB dfprpparingto murder your .neigh­ bor in ,war. You find; no fault in Jesus’ teaching on brotherhood—but you have a custom of a system of caste and class. You find no fault in the balanced justice of the Carpen­ ter—but you have a custom of in­ justice. Christians think in marble and build in mud. The whole course of life is mutilated to suit custom, the Procrustes who cuts off his guests so as to fit his beds. It never seems to occur to many that customs were made for men, not men for customs Because society dodges realism and indulges its sensuality, children are not desired; and so-called Christians follow this pagan crime. You can’t change human nature—this cry is flung at you whenever you decry an. old custom. Fourhundredyearsago Francis Drake as a pirate was honored by the queen, praised by writers, lauded in church, honored in state. Today, piracy is unthinkable. You can change the outward mani­ festations of human nature. Two hundred years ago everyone believed in witchcraft; bad you told Cotton Mather it was a mistake, he would have assured you that human nature was unchangeable; but we do not burn people for witchcraft. One hundred years ago the most popular president we have ever had, Andrew Jackson was a continual dueller, You couldn’t change that—but where is dueling today? If you Pad gone into medieval Norman chateaux they would have said: Things have been this way and as long as men are men they will be; but castles are not built today. Rouen had walls so wide that three autos could have gone abreast on them; if you had suggested tear­ ing them down, they would have said: We must keep our feet on the ground; don’t be a socialist or a bol­ shevik, "cities will always be walled. But they are not walled today. It was supposed impossible to unite Normandy, Brittany and a score of similar states—yet today one Mar- sellaise swells from the throats of all France. You have a custom of wanting a cultural religion, one that conforms (to the passions and prejudices and patterns of the7<Iay. Civilizations decay because they are built on sel­ fishness. Civilization must have re­ ligion, yet it doeB everything in its power to corrupt and dominate it. Manwill not fight for economic and social groups unless they are called eternal prineipies. - So every social group has a religion—either of cul­ ture or justice. Fourgreat religions compete today — Facism, Commun­ ism, Cultural religion. Prophetic Re­ ligion Facism is the sanctifieation of nationalism and greed; Commun­ ism is the idealization of a class and its violence; Cultural religion takes the standards of today and tells men that getting the best out of this w rid and out of the next is the same thing; Prophetic religion in­ sists that God is primarily concern­ ed with Justice in the face of all con­ cerned with justice in the face of all contemporary compromise with in­ justice. Most American Christians are committed to a cultural religion, which makes slight demands which allows their greed and pride and lust sway contemporary society does, which follows all conventions and customs, and does as the majority and the fashionable do. No one doubts that the gospel of Jesus is the prophetic religion—but you have a custom of crucifying saviours, even though you find no fault in hem. Youhaveacustom of hear­ ing and reading sermons, indorsing them, and continuing in your same old customs. We know the hemloick from the rose, The pure from stained, the noble from the base. The tranquil, holy light of truth that glows On Pity’s face. We know the paths wherein our feet should press. Across our hearts' are written Tby decrees. ! ' . Yet now. Oh Lord, he merciful to bless With more thatr these. Grant.us the wilf to fashion as we feel; '! : 1 Grart us the.&rCTgth to . labor , as , —';■ Grant us the purpose, ribbid and edged with steel, To Btrike the blow. Knowledgewe ask not, knowledge Thou hast lent. But Lord, the will—there lies our bitter need. Give us to build above the deep intent. The Deed, the Deed! A Big Bargain.

Who runs the postoffice depart­ ment while Boss Jim Farley is flit­ ting around over the country deliv­ ering political speeches and working for the election of Franklin D.? The same men who run the depart­ ment ir> Washington while Farley was supposed to be the postmaster general are operating that establish­ ment today. Boss Jim is nominally and official­ ly postmaster general and the under­ dog who is supposed to be the “act­ ing” postmaster general is simply being used as a figure head. Actually, Farley is chairman of the National DemocraticExecutive Com­ mittee. Thatds his real job. But he draws $15,000 a year from tye United States Treasury for be­ ing Postmaster General He is re­ puted to draw no salary from the Democratic National Committee. Ergo, the taxpayers of the United States, Republican and Democrats alike, are paying the salary of the chairman of the Democratic Nation­al Committee.—Ex, Wordsof Wisdom, -t This is what Lincpln said in one of his speeches: Property is the fruit of labor.' Property is desirable. Itisapositive good in the world Thatsomesbould be rich shows that others may be­ come rich and hence is a just en­ couragement to industry and enter­ prise. .! THE DAVES RECORD, MOCKSVmJ, »■ ft OCTOBER 2 8 .193« THE DAVIE RECORD. C. FRANK STROUD • - Editor. TELEPHONE Entered at the Postoffice in MockB- vllle, N. C.. as Second-claas Mail mitter. March 3.1903. _______ SUBSCRIPTION RATES: OtJE YEAR. IN ADVANCE - J I OO SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - $ 50 Now is the time for all good men t o come to I he aid of their party, ami the bad m'so would no doubt be welcome at this particular time. What has happened to Rev. Zeno Wall, of Sbelbv, since he wrote that wonderful letter preceding the Tune primary? W e haven’t seen or heard a word from him since. Sometimes we speak in haste and repent at leisure. ________ The big battle will be over before the next issue of The Record is printed. Just How good or how bad we are going to feel next Wednes­ day morning, it is impossible to tell. We are hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. Jim Farley says Roosevelt will carry 45 of the 48 states. That be* ing the case, why is Roosevelt wear­ ing himself out chasing over the eouutry begging the people to vote —not the democratic ticket but the New Deal ticket. There is no long er a democratic party, it seems. Jim Farley said several months ago that this was going to be a dirty campaign. Jim was right. Ifthere is anything mean that Jim and his crowd haven't said about the Re publicatiS we can’t imagine what it was Jim shouldberelegatedtothe ash heap, and maybe he will land there. _______ We wouldn’t think of saying any thing about Clyde Hoey that would reflect on him in any manner, but we read in the Book of Books that all men are liars. Clyde has said a number of things during the heat of the campaign tbat brought to our mind this age old passage of scrip­ ture. Xhe good old U. S. A. is going to get along some wav 01 the other regardless of what happens next Tuesday. The people managed to exist under Cleveland, Wilson and Roosevelt, and while the going was hard, the stars and stripes still waved to the breeze. We believe a change would be best for the coun­ try, but it is up to the people to say whom they want. Some of the enthusiastic demo era ts around here are offering to bet even money that Roosevelt will carry Pavie county. The only reason we don’t call their hand is that the New Deal has left us In such a fix that we can’t buy meat and bread, much less put up money on election bets. Now is a good time to begin get ting ready to apologize to your neighbors and best friends for the mean things you have said to" and about them during the heat of the campaign which is fast coming to an end. We should all be thankful that the presidential election comes but once every four years. Some of the Davie county folks claim that they don’t know who is running for the various county of fices on either the democratic or Republican ticket. We would ad­ vise these folks to subscribe for their county newspapers. It won’t be long until they will have to de­ cide which of the tickets they are going to vote. There are two optomistic mer­ chants in Mocksville. One is democrat and the other a Republi­ can. When you hear one talk you decide that Landon is going to be elected by the largest majority ever given a president. When the other one talks you decide that Landon hasn't as much chauce of being elected as Pat had in the army. The Greensboro News is a par tisan democratic paper but it hit the nail on the head when it said that when a man left the democratic party he was a traitor, a villian and everything else mean, but that when a Republican left his party and joined the democratic party he was a high-toned gentleman, or words to that effect. It all depends on whose ox is gored. A good many preachers in this section are going to vote for Frank­ lin ,Roosevelt for president, and there are a good many democratic preachers in this section who say thev.cannot vote for.him on account of the-stand he ; has- taken on the whisky question ’ We believe one preacher said from the pulpit that he didn't see how any one who claimed to be a Christian, could vote for Roosevelt. Well, tbat is up to the preachers. We suppose they will vote just as they want to. re­ gardless of what any preacher or layman has to say about the matter. A fellow in Cabarrus county by the name of Brice Willeford, is out begging the veterans of the World to vote for Roosevelt for president. Thisstrangefellow says “Roosevelt has accomplished a great deal for veterans of the World War, includ­ ing passage of the bonus bill and many other benefits and the veterans owe it to the president to see tbat he is re elected.” As Artbnr T. Abernethv would say, “The hell you say.” Franklin Roosevelt is the fellow who vetoed the soldier’s bonus bill after Congress passed it, and the said Congress had to pass the bill bv a two thirds majority over Roosevelt’s veto We don’t sec- bow any soldier who fought in the World War could vote for Roose velt, the man who did everything possible to keep the boys from get ting their bonus money. Why Yellow Jacket Opposes Roosevelt. We are opposed to the re-election of Roosevelt BECAUSE: _More than 90 per cent of the in­ dustries and business concerns of the country, both large and small, are ajrainst him. beleiving his re- election spells their ruin.^Practically all the religious voters of the country are against Roose­ velt’s re-eletion, because he and he alone, is responsible for the return of the open saloon and Ram in all parts of this country.He made booze—that slays citizens legal, but created laws to put honest citizens in jail for buying or selling farm products essential to life Here is what he said about the saloons: "By no possibility, at any time or Und1 r any circumstances, shall tbat institution, the saloon, or its equivalent, be allowed to return to American life.” And under his leadership the country is full of li­ quor stores from one end to the other.He murdered—or caused^ to be murdered— 6 million little pigs and millions of brood sows, with the re­ sult that millions were unable to eat. These are a few of the hundreds of reasons we are against Roosevelt. Any one of which is enough. 7ord Backs Landon For President. Detroit. — Henry Ford endorsed the presidential candidacy of Alf M. Landon today. The automobile manufacturer who in the early days of the Roosevelt administration, spectacularly and successfully resisted the NRA. said that the United States had had en­ ough of the new deal—“about all the country can stand.”His statement 0 f endorsement came the day after Governor Landon visited him at his home at Dearborn The nominee was here on his cam­ paign tour, speaking at Navin Field Davie Gets New Pastor.

"Don’t think of me—do .lust as If I were not here.” She threw her own arms around his neck, and their lips met again In pas-’ sionate appeal. “Then come. Jane. We must dash through this pine before that fire you hear roaring catches up to us.” "Is that awful roar from a Hre, Bill?” “It is. It’s our worst danger. L ets go, Jane.” To cross the wide belt of pine their course lay obliquely downhill. If any­ thing were needed to ,spur them on, the thunder of the fire sweeping down the forest behind served as a dread warning that they had only minutes left to escape' disaster. Halfway down the ridge, Denison paused to rest Jane In his arms. She was panting like an antelope. "Brave girl!” he murmured. “Not a 9 0 b—not a tear—” “But we must hurry, Bill,” she panted. "Get a little breath for the next run.” “Can we make it, Bill, dear?” "We’ve got to make it," he muttered 'TH save you, Jane, if it's the last thing I do in life." "Don't save me unless you save yourself—remember th at!” “Come! We must make the spring —the spring!” Tlie timber was thinning, the ground growing rougher. The frontiersman and cowman who had gone through every adventure that befalls a man In a life of danger and escape made little of finding safe footing from rock to rock. But his charge had a harder time trying to keep her feet and to keep the pace. Denison offered to car­ ry her. She would not hear of it. He himself saw, before Jane realized it, that the end of her strength was at hand. Striving vainly to keep up, she stumbled and with a little moan fell forward on the ground. Denison picked her up in his arms. She could not speak; only panted. Her heart, pressed against his breast, pounded like a hammer. “Put me down, Bill I Put me down!” she sobbed when she could breathe and form the words. “You must save yourself! Is the spring far, now?” “Not far. Clasp your arms tight around my neck,” was all he said, leaping along. “You can’t save us both; save your­ self. You are dearer to me than my life, BUI.” “So are you to me. Hang on,” he panted. ‘TH never put you" down I” After another run he paused. “Bill, I can run a little now. Let me try it Please, dear ! Let me try I” He shook his head and struggled on. The fire was only minutes behind him, its roar deafening. A cry roused Jane In his arms. “The spring!” She cried to him in happy answer. There was not an Instant to spare. He slid down the steep side of the hol­ low that enclosed the spring. Jane, still in his arms, he rolled into the pool and lay panting beside her. The shock of the icy water revived her. He soused her head into the water. The pool was wide enough to submerge Jane, but not himself. He rolled in the shallower edge, wet himself all over and, holding her head Just clear of the surface as she spluttered and coughed, gave her orders: “Keep your face down. Don’t, don’t open your eyes. You're safe If you do exactly as I say.” Savage flames burst above their beads. The burning air-showered sear­ ing fragments of bark' and branch on them as they lay huddled, comforting each other with words. “Breathe care­ fully, Jane,” he cried In her ear. “This air will sear your lungs. Fill your nose and mouth with water, spit and splutter it out. My God, it is upon us!” The heart of the fire was on them. They could no longer hear or think. Flame bellied and danced. Tongues of fire licked at their biding heads. Deni­ son mechanically dipped water into Jane's hair. Consciousness was nearly gone. Only the effort to. live and the fierce instinct to protect the one he loved animated him. With their trial of endurance almost at an end, a sudden explosion burst in the air above them. Denison, forget­ ting his caution, opened his eyes In the fear that a-tree was falling. His eye­ balls were scorched in a fraction of a second. ' He dashed his face back into the w ater; but mischief had been done. At last the terrific outburst abated. With the hope of life reanimated, the two rose in the pool In their steaming clothing. Darkness fell from the sky above, but the forest was lighted with smoking and burning tree torches, the afterglow of its destruction. The two who had passed through and escaped a hideous catastrophe stood clasped In each other’s arms thanking God and delirous in a new­ found, Intimate happiness. “Water.!’.' ..exclaimed Qanispn. , “I’m perishing, In spite of my cold bath. Aren’t you thirsty?" “Yes, but not suffering. I didn’t have to carry you, you know.” Moving a few feet up to the basin of the spring itself, they pushed aside debris from the water’s surface, drank from their cupped hands, and dashed water over their faces. . “Jane,” said Denison when he rose Bgatu1-1Tt was almost worth it for the way'It’d ftroa*htyypni*j»fl?tn* together.! by Frank H. Spearman C opyright F ran k H . Spearm an W N U Serrlce “!t was,” she whispered. “I’ve given you my trust.” ■ “For all time, Jane?" “For all time, Bill. Nothing shall ever part us, now.” CHAPTER VIII Picking their way haltingly and cau­ tiously down through smoking pines, dodging burning limbs 'that snapped and crackled menacingly overhead or crashed to the ground about them, the refugees emerged from the forest and could see that Denison’s ranch build­ ings had escaped the flamas. The Instant they reached the ranch house, Denison ran to the well, filled the water bucket, and carried it to Jane. Sitting on the ground, bare­ headed, they slaked their thirst out of the dipper together. Denison turned to the corral. Jane, who had gone Into the house, had got the fire going and was slicing, bacon when she heard the clatter of hoofs outside, and angry voices. “Where’s my daughter, you damned scoundrel?" were the first words she made out. The sound of the voice that uttered them sent her running, the knife still in her hand, to the door. Amazed to dumbness, she saw her fa­ ther and McCrossen In the saddle, fac­ ing Denison, who stood at the gate of his corral. “Yan Tambel,” Denison spoke care­ fully, “you’re too old a man for me to quarrel with. Just remember you’re on my property and keep a civil tongue in your head. I’ve taken more of your abuse In years gone by than I ought to take. Now put your question civ­ illy.” ' “I don’t want no truck with you, Denison,” shouted Van TambeL rag­ ing. “Where’s my girl?” McCrossen had reined about and was starting for the house. “Swing back here, McCrossen," Denison sang * “A Lot of Good Timber Gone in That Blaze, Van,” Muttered Mo- Crossen. out sharply. “Stop right where you are. My cabin’s not open to public in­ spection !” ‘I don’t give a damn for your cabin. There’s Jane," the foreman shouted, standing in the doorway.” Jane ran across the yard to the angry men. "Father!" she cried. “What in the world are you doing here? What brought you from the hospital?” Her father’s deep-set, piggy eyes flashed his fury, on, her. "You brought me here," he snapped savagely. “You wench! Living with this man, are you?” ‘F ather!” Outraged womanhood never spoke the word more stingingty. 1Is St possible you insult me so vilely be­ fore you have heard a single word?” she said. “W hat have I to do with your grudges and quarrels?” Bigid and erect, storming within and striking with white-hot words at her parent’s base intimation, Jane si­ lenced the men about her by her out­ raged dignity. “What shameful words have you heard—and from whom”—she barely Indicated her father’s companion by a lightning flash of her eye—“that put such vile thoughts into your head?” She waited for no answer. “I rode to the peak of Gunlock Knob to see how the fire was heading—it has threatened Gunlock Ranch for two days. When I tried to ride down this afternoon, the fire cut me off. I should have been burned to death where I stood on the peak, if Bill Denison hadn’t ridden up through another" fire to save me. And now after fighting our way for hours through smoke and flame, he brings me down by the only possible way, to hear me foully insulted by my own father. This is too much!” Van Tambel bad not dreamed that a mere, insult—his usual weajjon toward, everybody—would arouse anyone, much less his daughter, to such a pitch. Her buttoned blouse, torn rudely open at the neck by a forest’branch, and her tie awry, revealed the girlish Ivory of her throat and neck, while her hot words silenced the domineering brute before whose Insolence few men could stand at ease. “Look here, Jane!" bellowed her fa­ ther In retreat. “You come out here ,for- your, health, didn’t you?1! “I didn’t come out here to be grossly Insulted,” she retorted. “Where’s your pony?" “Heavens knows where it is, or where Bill Denison’s is. I hope they’re not burned up.” “Well, come along home. McCrossen will lend you his horse.” “He needn’t. I will walk home just as soon as I have cooked some bacon for Bill Denison.” “Come along now.” “Did you hear me? I’ll come home” —each word was defiantly emphasized —“When I have made coffee and cooked bacon for Bill Denison. When you get home, be kind enough to ask Bull Page to saddle a horse for me and bring it over." With this, Jane walked swiftly back to the cabin. Van Tambel, In a muttering rage, followed by MfCrossen, started home. A slender supper was at length got together. Then Jane made Denison He back in a chair and submit -to cold compresses on his eyes. W aiting for Bull Page proved no hardship, but when the hands of Deni­ son’s little alarm clock pointed to mid­ night it dawned on Jane that her re­ quest had been ignored and that her father or McCrossen had m eant she should walk home or compromise her­ self by staying all night at Denison’s. She boiled a bit inside when she real­ ized the situation, but prepared to walk. To this Denison would not Hs- ten. He got up two ponies—he had but one extra saddle—and, despite her objections and protests, insisted on rid­ ing home with her. It needed no announcer in the morn­ ing to tell Jane that her father had come home. She lay, exhausted and with every bone in her body aching, beyond her usual rising time. But there was an unusual scurrying about outside her room. Quong, old- and winkled, was the only man of the household not in the least perturbed by the surprise return of Van TambeL Jane came to the table as her father was leaving it. “I want to see you after breakfast,” was the gruff greeting he vouchsafed Jane. She found Van Tambel seated at his desk In his bedroom, looking over bills. Jane went up to- him. "I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw you yesterday, father,” she said coldly. “Did the doctor give you per­ mission to come home?” After a shuffling of papers came the first shot at Jane: “W hat did you fire McCrossen for?” “Because he refused to obey orders,” she retorted'instantly.' “Whose orders?" “My orders.” “Who owns this ranch?” “You do. And,” she added, keen- eyed, “you made me manager.” “I’ll take that Job off your shoulders. McCrossen Is foreman here now. And I am boss. Now what about this skunk, Denison?” “W hat about Mr. Denison, father?” “He’s a crook. And as long as you live, keep away from him.” "W hat has he ever done to you that’s wrong, father?” “He and his brother’s been trying for five years to beat me out of Gunlock Spring and aU that ranch land back of it. “That’s part of what he’s done to me. He’s stole my cattle besides. Mc- Crossen is the only man that stayed by me through thick and thin. Mc- Crossen’s the right man for you. You can get married tomorrow if you want to. “I haven’t the slightest idea of get­ ting m arried tomorrow, father. And If Mr. McCrossen were the only man left, I certainly should never marry. There’s not a straight hair in his head. Hulk been robbing you for years.” “Sounds like that skunk Denison’s been filling your ears for you.” “Bill. Denison’s, barely- ever men­ tioned McCrossen’s name to me." “Well, keep away from Denison for good, don’t forget that.” Jane flinched Inwardly but spoke low and clearly “I can’t promise th at father.” “Why not?” “I don’t'think it’s rig h t1* “Ain’t I your father?” “Yes.” "Ain’t a parent a-goln’ obeyed?” “If he is reasonable. Fm not a child, father.” He grew furious. “I don’t give a damn what you are, you’re not a-goln’ to take up with any enemy of mlnm ■n’ you might just as well know It now —and I’ll see that you don’t ” Van Tambel, quitting the house, rode with McCrassen, over the hills burned the day before, to determine what fur­ ther measures should be taken to in­ sure safety for the ranch buUdlnes The two men halted at the foot of Gum lock Knob. “A lot of good timber gone In that blaze, Van,’ muttered McCrossen. .Tm^bel was sllent for « mo­ment. The ranch ain’t worth as much as It was yesterday, that’s sure,” he said at last. Then after another pause* “I wouldn't-mind the timber if the ,damned-fire-had-heldion.tlii.lt-cleafied,out Denison.” .. Both were looking down on th» neighbor’s ranch. , - “I wish I was rid of that fellow” Van Tambel’s words fairly grated out of his harsh throat Why couldn’t that blamed fire have cleaned out his hnn* lngs yesterday?” D,lua* “It was a close scratch.

IlTf @Al a National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart Katlonal Press Building lWashlnetop, D.

The commission has returned to ,his country and has gone through . “ )abor pains to the end th at there Ire six different views, an opinion w each of the six different com ­ missioners concerning the value or I lack of it that consum er co-opera­ tives have. But it is im portant to know de­ velopm ents concerning this com m is­ sion because it appears th a t by en- •a'ing in an investigation of the i consumer co-operatives, the P resi­ dent has awakened a num ber of 1 different interests in our own coun- : try to the fact that there are som e : tbids of co-operatives w hich are not helpful. The fuss stirred up by failure of the six com m issioners to reach an agreem ent m akes it seem unlikely that there will be any una­ nimity of opinion in congress if and when Mr. Roosevelt attem pts to gain action in a legislative w ay to encourage creation of these co-op­ eratives. In other words, if a m ove is made in congress, or if the Chief Executive attem pts to force con­ gress to enact legislation favorable to consumer co-operatives, w e are likely to see a vigorous legislative tattle. Personally, I hope th a t hap­ pens. Unless that end m aterializes, there is every likelihood th a t the average person who has not access to full information will be inclined to favor consumer co-operatives, without realizing he is lending his influence, whatever it m ay be, to fostering institutions th a t in the end are certain to cause heartaches and financial losses. I am in a position to say th a t the one thing upon which the P resi­ dent’s commissioners w ere, able to agree was that consum er co-op­ eratives in Europe constitute the focal point for radicalism . N ot a single consumer co-operative w as found, I am told, that w as not con­ trolled, managed or inspired by radi­ cals of one breed or another, m ainly, communists. These hotbeds of rad i­ calism constitute “ pressure groups” that have been able to im press gov­ ernments in the various countries of an ability and an influence th a t do not actually exist w ith them . T hat is to say, these groups, like m inority groups everywhere, are cohesively organized and they are vocal, in addition. The result is they have been able to force upon peoples in many countries restrictions over private and independent initiative, or to gain for them selves exem p­ tions and privileges not accorded to others. The result is an obvious alignment of peoples into fresh fac­ tions, the tendencies of w hich are dangerous. Tugwell’s Activities It may be news to m any persons that we have consum er co-opera­ tives in this coun­ try and th a t these agencies or units already are being fostered by the U nited. States gov­ ernment. I refer to the activities of Frofessor Rexford Guy Tugwell, who has installed in the resettlem ent col­ onies various and sundry consum er co-operative^. It m ay be new s as well to many to learn th a t M r. Tug- well has spent alm ost two m illion dollars in financing these co - op­ eratives to get them started . And me third bit of hew s respecting mis circumstance is th a t a book witten by Jam es P eter W arbasse is oemg used as a guide for the crea- fffln of these consum er co-operatives m federal resettlem ent projects.

T his phase seem s the m ore im ­ portant because the food stores, food fields generally, are the sectors in w hich these consum er co-operatives operate best. As a m atter of fact, the food field is the m ost fertile field for experim ents anyw ay and here is quite apparently another experi­ m ent th at has fastened, or is fasten­ ing itself as a p arasite upon the agricultural industry of this country. I know th ere has been som e ar­ gum ent th a t the consum er co-op­ eratives are the answ er to the effort to destroy chain stores. T hat is not so. Chain stores in foreign countries have licked the co-operatives. They have virtually destroyed them w here the co-operatives attem pted to drive the chain stores out of busi­ ness. It becom es im portant then to recognize th at while the U nited S tates h as m any chain stores, it h as not now and never w ill have as m any chain stores as it has inde­ pendents. A gain, here is a th reat to in­ dependent business m en, particular­ ly to the sm all shop ow ner, w hether he be in a larg e city or in the thou­ sands of sm all tow ns and villages w here the ow ners of such stores are im portant to their com m unities and pillars of.strength in-our: nation­ al society. If the consum er co-opera­ tives get going, I predict a further decline in the num ber of independ­ ent m erchandise houses through­ out the U nited States. F o r th at rea­ son, if for none of the others th a t I have outlined, it does seem im por­ ta n t th a t the Consumer co-operatives m ove in this country should b e stopped in its track s and th at those responsible in an official w ay for en­ couraging this sort of thing should be shorn of pow er.• * • It m ay seem a fa r cry from the farm field to the price of beer as a w orking m an findsThen Iti but there is a There’s Beer direct connection and recent devel­ opm ents again dem onstrate the fact th a t our whole econom ic structure is quite closely related. T here is an increase com ing in the price of beer. E ither the w orking m an and others who like beer are going to pay m ore for it, or else they w ill get a sm aller, glass. T he answ er is th at ingredients entering into the production of beer have increased in price to such an extent th at, according to official figures, the brew ers are now paying about $1.50 m ore for the things th at en ter into the production of one b arre l of beer th an they did when the sale of beer again w a s legalized. This circum stance is significant for the reason th a t it show s conclu­ sively how tam pering w ith the cur­ rency upsets the general balance w ithin our econom ic structure and results som etim es in displacem ent of m ark ets and som etim es in dim i­ nution of sales. In the case of beer it probably w ill result in a dis­ placem ent of m arkets, rath er than any decline in the am ount of beer consum ed, despite the fact th at the ultim ate consum er will be paying m ore.

There is a quaintness about the early Victorian fashions th at especially offers al­ luring possibilities to brides who would have a “picture” wedding scene. Young brides with slender figures can w ear becom ingly these dem ure gowns of Victorian inspiration in silk taffeta or heavy slipper satin. The lovely gown pictured creates rom ance and poetry for the m odem wedding scene. This 1936 version of a V ictorian wedding gown is in­ terpreted in traditional erm ine-white pure silk satin. The basque buttons quaintly down the back. The full sleeves give the broad shoulder ef­ fect th at accents, by w ay of con­ trast, the slender girlish waistline. The 'bride carries a prayer book w ith gardenias. Of course one’s bridal party m ust carry out the idea so the flower girl has a period look in a Victorian cream silk taffeta princess dress that is gored to fit at the w aistline with a widely spreading skirt which, by the way, stresses the new length for little girls party dresses this season. This wee m aiden ties a lavender silk ribbon in her hair and carries a bouquet of purple asters and cream colored gladioli with a silk tulle frill. The bridesm aid befittingly w ears a cream silk satin Victorian gown. The full sleeve, slender line, and back fullness are im portant style de­ tails that present-day designers are definitely introducing in their new­ est creations. A dem ure little brown silk net bonnet adds to the quaint- ness of the costum e. The flowers she carries are purple and cream asters. If one prefer that the attendants dress colorfully rath er than keep strictly to cream satin, they m ay w ear pert gowns in autum n hues of peau de soie or silk taffeta with puff sleeves and full skirts. As quaint and as “period” looking as if she had stepped from the fashion pages of a Godey appears a brides­ m aid who is gowned in a frock of lavender silk taffeta with a tiny wine-colored silk velvet hat sur­ m ounted w ith three hyacinth blue ostrich tips. An arm ful of purple, rich red and cream asters adds to the color glory of the picture. One thing is certain, w hether she is a classic bride in traditional satin or in soft clinging fabrics, or a bride in quaint frock of Victorian or directoire inspiration, she will be dressed in silk of one type or an­ other. ,This, year it is good style to have j0 he*s attendants w ear the sam e style and the sam e fabric as one’s own gown, only in different colors. If desired, the bridesm aids m ay all w ear the sam e color, or that which is novel and new, different shades of a basic color, giving som e­ w hat of an om bre effect to the group as a whole. F or the im portant evening en­ semble', sm art trousseaux will in­ clude a black velvet evening gown which will m ake the bride look like a re-incarnation of Sargent’s famous “M adam e X.” Top it off with a m atching hip - length silk velvet jacket and it can be worn on the honeymoon for dinner and form al wear. © Westero Newspaper Union.

IN AN exam ination of a num ber of children in the public or gram ­ m ar schools it w as found th at the num ber of underw eights w as re­ duced by supplying m ilk at the school at least once a day. In the high schools w here no m ilk w as sup­ plied, the, gain in .weight fo r .height: and age w as not so satisfactory. While this habit of supplying ex­ tra m ilk for school children is excellent there is often physi­ cal defects and bad health habits that are underm ining the youngsters’ health, and these m ust be corrected if perm a­ nent results 'are to be obtained. A L H g youngster th at plays Bh. j H all the tim e and is „ too tired to eat and D r. Barton digest his food prop­ erly m ay be keeping his weight low just as can a youngster who doesn’t get outdoors a t all, and has no appe­ tite for his food. Infected teeth or tonsils, a nose th at is blocked and preventing' proper breathing, round shoulders, and other physical de­ fects all prevent' proper growth and developm ent. , D r. W. R. P- E m erson in “Ar­ chives of P ediatrics” says: ' The es­ sentials for good nutrition and nor­ m al physical and m ental develop­ m ent are: (I) freedom from physi­ cal defects, (2) adequate food, (3) free air, (4 ) sufficient exercise, and (5) proper rest. From a survey of a large num ber of children of pre­ school (three to six years) and school ages it w as found that each child had an average of iVz physi­ cal defects and 6 faulty eating hab­ its. Of a group of 1,000 children only 2 per cent ( 2 0 in the whole 1 ,0 0 Q) w ere found to be free from physical .defects. “ The m ost frequent defects are obstruction of the nose, bad teeth, diseases of various organs, and pos­ tural conditions (round shoulders, sw ay back, spinal curvature), which w ere either the result or partly the causes of the underw eight and un­ derdevelopm ent.” Physicians are agreed that attain­ ing the proper weight for any young­ ster’s particular type of body or physique will m ean “ im provem ent in m ental developm ent, increased efficiency, and increased resistance to disease.” The treatm ent of underw eight in children then should be from the various standpoints outlined above which m eans, first, the rem oval of defects and bad health habits, and second, plenty of fresh air, plenty of good food and plenty of rest. * * * The Fam ily Physician. There w as a tim e when the “ out­ standing” doctor of 3 | com m unity w as supposed to be very silent, very gruff, having no patience with the patient who wanted to tell him all about his sickness. It was felt that he knew so m uch that just a glance at his patient and the taking of pulse and tem perature w as all that he needed to know w hat w as wrong and how to treat it. Fortunately the real fam ily physi­ cian w as not of this type, but a real all-round friend of the fam ily who had all the affairs of the fam ily on his m ind and tried to help whenever and w herever possible. And then cam e the “hospital” type of physician who took sam ples of blood, urine, sputum , used the X -ray and other types of exam ina- -tion possible in -the hospital, and after waiting the hours and days necessary for these exam inations to be com pleted, told the patient and the patient’s fam ily exactly w hat was wrong. Now it is only good sense- for the doctor to get all the help possible from the hospital’s laboratories, be­ cause this will be of help to the patient; but the up-to-date doctor,* the successful physician now real­ izes m ore than ever before that m ore than a knowledge of medi­ cine, m ore than the findings from the laboratory are necessary if the patient is-to get the best possible treatm ent. Hum anism Is Needed. D r. O scar Klotz in addressing the Toronto Academy of M edicine states: “In the practice of m edi­ cine the physician is called upon to use his every effort and equipm ent to learn the cause of the ailm ent and its treatm ent. He is often called upon to strain the last resources known to science to attain a satis­ factory result. But over and above all these scientific endeavors, aided by all the available skill, there is need of a very com m onplace a t tribute of m an best spoken of as hum anism —love and understanding of your fellow m aii. There is need of a -sym pathetic understanding which sefveS'to support*the: courage of the .patient, an appreciation of the m ental and spiritual reactions of the sick, often determ ined by their surroundings and m ade worse by the poverty and distress of other m em bers of the fam ily. The full understanding of ‘hum anism ’ in m edicine is acquired through vary­ ing circum stances of life and is a t­ tained in greatest m easure by the fam ily or general physician, rather than by.- the- specialist.?’ ® — W N U S w v lc e .

Twenty- six y e a rs ago Chief Ju stic e Hughes took his seat on the Su- prem e C ourt bench. President T aft rendered public service by appointing him to succeed Justice Brewer. He left the bench to run for President against Woodrow Wilson, and would doubtless have been elected had he not goi-e to California. Had he been elected he would have remained in the United States and probably would have saved the coun­ try ten thousand million dollars that Woodrow Wilson shoveled out in his ecstasy of self-approval. Rioting in London’s “Mile End Road,” in which the faces of men and women were slashed with razor blades and one man was thrown through a shop window, etc., seems rather “un-English,” to put it mild­ ly. Pist fighting has been en­couraged by distinguished English­ men, including judges, on the ground that it is “better than using knives.” It is better, doubtless, but what about the razor blades? Arthur Brisbane Germany honors its youngest grandfather, Herman Jahnke, farm laborer, thirty-six years old. Mar­ried at seventeen, his eldest daughter became a mother at seven­ teen.If all you want is children, that record is satisfactory, although any mouse family could beat it by 25,000 per cent, and almost any microbe by a billion per cent. If good children were desired, it would have been better for Mr. Jahnke to have his first child at 36, and his first grandchild at 60 or 70; at least that was Plato’s opinion.

Japan, until recently convinced, mistakenly, that this country is her enemy, and for excellent reasons keeping close watch on Russia and her anti-Japanese Vladivostok air-, plane and submarine base, now turns suspicious attention on dear old John Bull. Britain is supposed to have asked nine nations to protest against Ja­ pan’s demands on China. That should not worry Japan too much. The same old John Bull got fifty- one nations to protest Mussolini’s attack on Ethiopia; but, paying no attention, the able Italian went ahead swallowing Ethiopia; sending the little Haile Selassie 'o live in Switzerland.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD€> Western Newspaper Union. FIGURES made public by the American Navy Department show that since July I last every great naval power except the United States has increased the number and tonnage of its war vessels. In the Vk months from July I to September 15, the United States re­ duced the number of its ships from 324 vessels totaling 1,080,715 tons to 306 vessels, totaling 1,062,875 tons. Great Britain increased ships from 37 to 309 and tonnage from 1,224,329, to 1,232,854. Japan increased ships from 213 to 217 and tonnage from 772,797 to 776,397. France increased ships from 178 to 187 and tonnage from 558,452 to 571,734. Italy increased ships from 191 to 195 and tonnage from 403,865 to 406,- 333. Germany increased ships from forty-nine to fifty-three and tonnage from 113,708 to 125,458.The British foreign office an­ nounced that France and Italy had agreed to sign that protocol of the London naval treaty forbidding the use of submarines except under strict limitations. RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N .jJ. Secretary Morgenthau «‘T T IS a new gold standard, a way of doing- business which has never been tried before,” was Secretary Morgenthau’s character­ ization of the agree­ ment just entered into by the United States, Great Brit­ain and France, whereby, subject to 24 - hours’ cancel­ lation, they will ex­ change gold for each other’s currencies. Financiers, econo­mists and business men were taken by su rp ris e by the move and immedi­ ately gave it close study. Some were disposed to label the maneuver “po­ litical expediency,” but experts gen­ erally said it was a logical step in the sequence of monetary events but noj positively in the direction of stabilization.The new plan, Mr. Morgenthau said, differs from the old gold stand­ ard in that it will permit the export or earmarking of gold only to and between governments instead of private business institutions and traders. “The door is wide open,” said Mr. Morgenthau. “We’re not going out drumming up business, but we’ll welcome all other countries which want to participate.” According to the Treasury depart­ ment, the United States alone will announce a selling price for gold. France and England will keep their selling prices secret, though there will be a free flow of gold between the stabilization funds of the three nations. It was believed that Great Britain was the prime mover in this new pact. As one commentator put it: “The agreement was made neces­ sary when France debased her cur­ rency and placed an embargo on gold exports, because Great Britain suddenly discovered that nowhere in the world was there left a fixed yard­ stick against which to measure in­ ternational commitments and handle international exchange.” OOVIET RUSSIA made a second ^ determined effort to aid the be- leagured government of Spain, and sustained a second rebuff. Ivan Maisky, Russian ambassador to England, handed to Lord Plymouth, British chairman of the non-inter­ vention committee, a virtual ulti­ matum demanding immediate con­ vocation of the committee to con­ sider blockading the coast of Por­tugal against arms shipments des­ tined for the Spanish insurgents. It was understood in London that Dord Plymouth replied that if the propo­ sition were seriously made, it should be presented through diplomatic channels to the governments con­ cerned. The Russian plan was for a blockade by English or French war­ ships. Observers in Europe are con­vinced that the Soviet government does not expect the powers to agree to any such blockade as is sug­ gested, but is chiefly interested in stirring up, discord among the na­ tions. British Foreign Minister Anthony Eden, after hearing of Lord Ply­ mouth’s reply, made a speech at Sheffield in which he pledged Great Britain’s unwavering support to the policy of nonintervention in Spain. He'declared the .government was determined to “confine that tragedy within the boundaries of that coun­ try.” Leaders of the Fascists were re­ ported to have planned a steady, steam - roller advance on Madrid, and this offensive was already under way. The defenders of the capital were hastily building fortifications in the suburbs and surrounding the city with trenches. In Oviedo the dynamite - armed force of loyalist miners was still battling with the garrison and rebel troops sent to the rescue were about to enter the city. U AURICE THOREZ, F ren ch •* Communist leader, made a speech in Strasbourg that is causing a lot of trouble. He was charged with deliberately insulting Adolf Hit­ ler, and the Berlin government en­ tered formal protest. The official ,Nazi organ, Der Angriff, says the speech was an attempt to precipi­tate war between France and Ger­ many, and also that it was an at- tempt “to overthrow the German reich. and to achieve the definite bolshevization of France for the benefit of the Soviet Communist In­ ternationale.” The .French rightist-newspapers declare the Thorez incident was part of the RussiantCpmmunist scheme to Uirow France, against. Germany so that Russia1Will not be left alone to face “any eventual German attack." The rightists were even-more vig­ orous in iheir accusations when it was learned. that iMaxim. Litvinoy, Soviet foreign commissar, was sec­retly hrParis. King Leopold geographical BELGIUM, which since the close of the World war has been tied tight to France by a military al­ liance, has decided to drop that and all similar alliances and to rely for her safety on strict neu­ trality and a larger army. King Leopold so informed the cab­ inet, telling the min­ isters that Ger­ many’s reoccupation of the Rhineiand “practically puts us back where we were before the g re a t w a r.” ’ Belgium’s position, he said makes it imperative for us to maintain a military machine of such size as to dissuade any neighbor from using our territory- to attack another state.” The period of mili­tary service was extended from twelve to eighteen months. “Belgium must pursue' a policy exclusively and wholly Belgian,” Leopold said. “In any case our en­ gagements should not go beyond keeping off war from our own ter­ ritory. Belgium must remain out­ side of its neighbors’ conflicts.” “Any policy of alliance with a single country would weaken our position abroad. A purely defensive alliance would not meet the case because, however prompt the in­ tervention of our ally, it would only come after the invader’s blow, which would be crushing.” AUTHORITY of the national maritime commission to de­ clare a permanent truce in current contract controversies is challenged by the negotiating committee for the Pacific coast maritime unions, and members of those unions are instructed to vote on a proposal for a coast-wide waterfront strike. The maritime commission had peremptorily demanded that the Pacific coast ports be kept open while it sent an investigator to San Francisco to discuss the conditions which have long threatened to bring on industrial warfare. _ In telegrams to President Frank­lin Roosevelt and the commission, the committee said the commission had caused “great unrest” among the workers, through rits participa­ tion in negotiations between ship­ owners and dock-and shipboard em­ployees. The seven unions, claiming a membership of nearly 37,000 work­ ers, are the International Long­ shoremen’s association, the Ameri­ can Radio Telegraphists’ associa­ tion, the Marine Engineers’ Benefi­ cial association, the Masters, Mates and Pilots of America, the Sailors’ Union of the Pacific, Marine Cooks and Stewards, and the Marine Fire­men.

BORAH J of Idaho, whose attitude in the Presidential campaign is a matter of great interest to all parties, has declared he would confine his attention to state matters; but then, being irked by some criticism from Republicans he went further and said he was “going after the Republican party.” The veteran said he had been accused-of not being regular.“Well, what is _a Senator Bora^ regular?” he asked.“A regular is a man with no ideas, who waits for someone to .tell him what to do.

A com­ mittee of twenty-eight was named to study reform proposals. The assembly approved reports of its economic and disarmament com­ mittees. The economic report carried a British proposal to create a commission to study accessibility of raw materials. The United States and other nonmembers would be in­ vited to participate.

The chancellor’s order also affect­ ed his own Catholic storm troops. AU the private troops were ordered consolidated with the Austrian state miUtia. This would increase Aus­ tria’s official armed forces to about 158,000 men. The dissolution decree met strong opposition within the cabinet, and was voted after three ministers had walked out. Schuschnigg’s task now is to ac­ tually disarm the private armies. If he succeeds in doing this, his com­ plete control over Austria may be conceded. It is recaUed that the Heimwehr was ordered to disarm in 1931, that the government seized many weapons, and that a year later some 40,000 Heimwehr men appeared fuUy armed and uni­formed. Von Starhemberg may not be really squelched this time, either. It is a certainty that he has a power­ ful friend in Premier Mussolini of Italy. A RABS of Palestine, who had been on “strike” for 175 days in protest against unrestricted im­ migration of Jews, were persuaded by the British to call off the strike, which had been accompanied by great disorders and the killing of r several hundred persons. The Arab high committee issued an appeal to Arabs throughout the country to re­ turn to work quietly, and this com­ mand was obeyed generally. Sir Arthur Wauchope, British high com­ missioner, was said to have in­ formed the British government that it was now safe for the royal com­ mission of investigation to begin its work of inquiring into the grievances of the Arabs. According to a Hebrew newspaper of Jerusalem, the Arabs have ar­ ranged for backing by Italian Fas­ cists for their aspirations. Also, the Moslem authority administering Is­lamic church property is reported to be prepared to sell Catholics a Christian holy place on Mount Zion. D ASING its conclusions on a study ° covering the period from 1900 to 1935; the National Industrial Con­ference board finds that there is no evidence to support the theory that the burden of private debt upon business is excessive. Statements that private debt is “absorbing wealth” or is showing a changed and unfavorable relationship to wealth, or that the depression was precipitated by an excessive debt burden are without factual basis, the board reported. Interest charges have not outrun the capacity to pay them, according to the board’s study, which showed that the rates of growth, of private long - term debt and of interest charges from 1900 to 1935 were simi- Iar- to those of national wealth and national income. Since 1930 private long term debt has tended to decline.

Rom. 14:21.PRIMARY TOPIC—Why We Keep Rules.JUNIOR TOPIC—Junior Citizens. INTERMEDIATE and sen io r to pic —What ShaU We Do About Drinking? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Law, Love, and Temperance. Revolution, political disorder, an­ archy—these are words which char­ acterize much of the world’s news of our day. What should be our attitude toward government? Should a Christian participate in revolts against government? These are questions that stir the hearts of men.The Bible has an answer, and it is found in our lesson for today. Let us study it with care and seek God’s message for us and for our nation in these utterly confusing days. ■ We consider together a portion of Paul’s epistle to the Romans in which, having laid his superb doc­ trinal foundation, he turns to a practical application. Let us ever remember that while right doctrine is necessary to right living, it is never sufficient to hold the doctrine and fail to permit it to control our daily walk.Good citizenship of-the true type is the result of staunch Christian character. Much of the weakness in our political and social life can be traced to the neglect of the things of God in the home, the school, and the church. Paul presents the Christietn as one who has the right attitude to­ ward his neighbors, and toward his own daily walk. The Christiem is L Politieally-InteIligent and Loy­ al (w -1-7). Lectures on political economy are well worth while. School children should learn to love and honor their country. But for real intelligent citizenship we must have a study of- God’s Word. For all govern­mental authority is dependent on a God-given power. No man has any right to rule over any other man except as God delegates that right to him. No' “divine right of kings” is justi­ fied by this passage, but clearly it does teach that government is or­ dained of God and functions by his providence. To resist such author­ ity, is to resist God. Must we always obey the govern­ ment? Yes; until it commands us to do that which is clearly contrary to the laws of God. We do not resist or question the authority of any properly appointed govern­ mental agency, no matter how weak, or even wicked the agent may be, as long as he acts as “a minister of God . . . for good.” Any government is better than an­ archy. But no government has the right to command any man to-dis­obey God. In our land we have a powerful agency for the correction of govern­ mental weakness and error — the ballot box. Let every Christina use it discreetly and in the fear of God. Before leaving the passage, note that the Christian does not dodge, “fix,” or leave unpaid the taxes which support the government un­ der whose benefits he lives and works. There is too much dishon­ esty at this point, and we need to correct it. II. SaclaIly-Honest and Loving (w. 8-10 ). . “Love thy neighbor as- thyself” and there will be no social dis­ honesty, strife, and ill-will. Re­ member the lesson of last week on love—I Corinticins 13. HI. PersonaHy-Clean and Spirit­ual (w. 11-14). The time when our redemption is to be fully completed—that is, when the Lord himself returns — is at hand. We therefore will not live as those who walk in darkness, but as children of the light, clean in life and thought. We will “put on the Lord Jesus Christ.” In these days when almost every wayside store and hundreds of thou­ sands of city buildings have been converted into drinking places worse than the old-time saloon, when men and women are mak­ ing drunken sots of themselves, it is indeed time for Christians to raise their voices in protest and to act to protect the boys and girls of America. , rJJ* .ubove all—let us win them to Christ, for if they “put on Christ” Jrftyfl wJf1, “raake no provision for the flesh to fulfill the lusts thereof.” ‘ Respect for ParentsHwior your parents in ' your hearts; bear them not only awe and respect, but kindness and af­fection; love their persons, and fear to do anything that may just- OClsfrw them-—ReV- W.

K- & OCTOBER 23,1936^ I }■'■' Class W arfare Ir Threat Is Seen , Tactics of New Deal Arouse Grave Fears. I Efforts to stimulate antagonism 'among various groups of citizens constitute a feature of the current political campaign which aroused considerable apprehension _ among those anxious to see constitutional democracy perpetuated in the United States.The New Deal and Mr. Roosevelt personally appear to be responsible for this situation.Although Mr. Roosevelt recently expressed the hope for “calfn delib- eration and clear thinking” in the present campaign, many of his ut­ terances have been generally ap­ praised as somewhat out of har­ mony with his expressed hope. An editorial in the Bbston Transcript recently summed ap this phase of the situation as follows:“On several notable occasions Mr. Roosevelt himself has slipped away • from the cool, calm and sweet rea­sonableness which now seem to him so desirable. Who else was it that branded as ‘tories’ all who dared cross him in his plans for remak­ing the nation and its people? Who else was it that exploded into ‘horse and buggy’ language when the Su­ preme Court declared one of his pet measures unconstitutional? Who else was it that pinned the label of ‘economic royalists’ on the great body of American business men? Who else was it that described his unnamed opponents as representa­ tives of ‘entrenched greed’?” There is general acceptance of the theory that class warfare, if it should be precipitated by partisan political appeals, would be fatal to the American system of govern­ ment. The Federal Constitution rec­ ognizes no class distinctions. It places all citizens on a basis of absolute equality before the law. It does not permit special privileges for any particular group nor impose special duties upon others. I Examples in Europe. Th,e history of the rise of dictator­ships in several European natftms is cited frequently by those who fear that the New Deal’s attempt to set up class distinctions is ; dangerous to the American system. 'In practically every case in recent !history where a dictatorship has been established it has been founded upon the desire of some particular group for power over other groups. In Russia it is th<a Communist mi­nority which dominates; in Ger- Imany the Nazis; in Italy the Fasi cists. ; It is also regarded as significant that while in the instances men­ tioned there is a nominal dictator­ ship of a particular group, in actu­ ality there is a dictatorship by one individual. That is a feature which causes concern on the part of those who have noted Mr. Roosevelt’s at­ tempt to combine legislative and executive power in his own hands !and his impatience when some of .his experiments have been halted :by the interposition of the constitu­ tional powers of the Supreme Court. The entire situation is something new in American politics. It is re­ garded as having potentialities of grave danger. “Non-Political” Mr. Roosevelt has conducted much of his campaign by making what he called “non-political” trips and speeches. In January of this year he delivered a !message to Con­ gress through a radio microphone. In September he issued a summa­ tion of the budget which some ir­ reverent persons described as a campaign document. There was general relief for the puzzled people when the President finally confessed that after all he was a candidate for re-election. New Deal Costs The Roosevelt Administration dur­ ing the past three fiscal years has collected eleven billions of dollars from the taxpayers. That, however, has not been nearly enough to meet the expenses of the New Deal. In addition to the eleven billions of dollars collected, the administra­ tion has signed the taxpayers’ name to promissory notes for twelve bil­ lions of dollars more—that’s what government borrowing means. Economy Promises In 193-2 the Democratic Platform promised a reduction in government expenditures of 25 per cent. The : Roosevelt administration took office . on March 4, 1933. ; For the fiscal year »33 (ending June 30, 1933) the Federal govern- : ment’s expenditures totalled $5,143,- ' 000 ,000 . ,*■ For the fiscal year 1936 the Fed- .eral government’s expenditures to­talled $3,880,000,000—an increase of ' 72 per cent. I Our Book of Roles The Sbest argument against com- : munism, socialism,," fascism and many other isms is the simple fact : that they conflict with Americanism.. The star-eyed theorists and dream­ ers want to make their own rules for governing other people. They overlook the fact that the people want to rule themselves and have done pretty well with that old book of rules called the United States Constitution. New Deal Aims to ’Pack' Court Would Put “Right Men” Supreme Bench, Says Wallace. on In the early days of the last ses­sion of Congress spokesmen for th« New Deal were making a drumfire attack on the Supreme Court of the United States. They demanded that the Court be deprived of the power to invalidate acts of Congress Other restrictions on the Supreme bench were suggested, more than fifty ol them being actually included in pro­ posed new laws. These attacks sud­ denly ceased. Washington observers were puzzled until it was disclosed that the Administration had not abandoned the assault, but simply had changed its tactics.Instead of putting legal shackles on the Court the New Dealers con­ ceived the idea of waiting until va­cancies occurred and then nomina­ ting justices who were in sympathy with Administration policies. Secre­ tary Wallace, of the Department oi Agriculture, let the cat out of the bag when he said in his introduc­ tion to a book written by Irving Brant: “The important thing * * * is to elect Presidents who will nominate the right men to the Supreme Court.”Secretary Wallace previously had expressed his opinior of the present Supreme Court majority when he declared after the AAA decision on processing taxes that the ruling was “the greatest legalized steal in his­ tory.” Demands for the impeach­ ment of Mr. Wallace were made on the floor-of the House of Representa­ tives but no rebuke was adminis­ tered to the Cabinet member by the Administration.What Wallace Wants. Among press comments vigor­ ously denouncing Mr. Wallace’s startling perversion of American ideals is an editorial entitled “Abol­ ishing the States” in the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph. Discussing the Secretary’s book “Whose. Constitu­ tion?” the newspaper says: “Wallace now says boldly that the entire American system of gov­ernment must be scrapped and, a co-operative commonwealth must be established in place of the system of 48 separate states. This half-baked student of the Constitution and the American system insists that the organic law was intended to be a ‘union of people instead of a union of states;’ that the states have been a barrier from the beginning and today ‘they mark no economic boundaries that make sense/ “It is unnecessary for any real student of American history to baindy words with this mystic dreamer, this crackpot critic of the Supreme Court, who ignores the en­ tire philosophy of a system of checks and balances so well worked out by the founding fathers and brackets the high court with big corporations, the Republican party, the Liberty League and ‘most' of the news­ papers’ as standing for states’ rights.” Hand - Picked Justices? It is anticipated that there will be at least two vacancies on the Su­ preme Court bench at no distant date. Changes in the personnel might establish a majority that would b« friendly to the Roosevelt desire for a centralization of execu­tive power. Several important Supreme Court decisions are in the offing which will deal again frith the question as tc how far Congress may go in sur­ rendering its duties and powers by delegating _them to the Executive. These anticipated rulings include the Emerg^icy Relief Appropria­tion Act, which empowers the Pres­ident to allocate huge sums for al­ most any purpose he desires. It was under such power that Mr. Roosevelt allocated millions to the Quoddy” Dam project, the Florida Ship Canal and to the Thomas Jef­ ferson Memorial in St. Louis. The first two of these costly projects have been abandoned. The third is tied up in litigation. Other decisions are expected ulti­ mately on the Labor Relations Act, TV*®,?*?. H°??.ervation Act, the PubUc Utility Holding Company Act and the Tennessee Valley Authority Act.People’s Power Threatened. , event of Mr. Roosevelt’s I r iIectionit *s conSidered probable that the effort to centralize power in the hands of the President will be continued vigorously. The neces­sity for court rulings on new at­tempts of this sort would become inevitable. Instead of seeking the changes it desires by the Constitutional method of submitting amendments to the Constitution to the people the Ad­ministration plans to have a Su­preme Court composed of “right mem who will amend the Consti­ tution by “judicial interpretation.” This new method of amendment has been publicly approved by Donald Kichberg, one of the New Deal’s inner council. BarkandBlteIt is proved by 'the latest New Deal budget that about one half of the internal revenue taxes are hid­den taxes, paid by the. poor as well as the wealthy, in the shape of in­creased prices on almost every arti­cle in common use. An Tiiinnin edi­ tor makes the comment that the trouble with most of the tax laws is that they bark at the rich and bite the poor. C onstitutionB ig Issue of Nov. 3 Preservation of American System of Government at Stake. Experts on pre - election trends recognize that not for three genera­tions has the Constitution been so dominant in American thought as in the 1936 campaign. Various issues have been raised in the New Deal’s defense of its four-year record but the experts believe that many thou­sands will go to the polls particu­ larly to vote on this one fundamen­ tal question: Shall the American system of Gov­ ernment be preserved? In the press, on the radio and from public rostrums warnings have been issued that constitutional self-gov­ ernment may be at stake in the election. It is predicted that great numbers of voters who are classed as stay-at-homes will be eager to cast a ballot this year on a matter so universally important.Appeal To Voters. In advance of the primaries last Spring the American L ib e rty League issued a call to all voters to go to the polls this year. The League is a nation-wide organization whose basic purpose is to uphold and de­ fend the Constitution. It issued a letter to its more than 100,000 mem­ bers to inaugurate a Get-Out-The- Vote Campaign. The appeal was made to adherents of all parties, regardless of how they proposed to vote. Therew-as a favorable response from all sections of the country and this was emphasized by widespread expression of approval in the press. Millions Don’t Vote. It was brought out in the League letter that 30,000,000 potential voters '1 failed to take advantage of their right to cast ballots in the presi- dental election of 1932. After citing the importance of the constitutional issue the letter said:“In such circumstances every citizen owes a duty to himself, to his family and to his Nation. His duty is the free and intelligent exercise of his right of franchise— his vote. The ballot which a free citizen casts may be compared with the payment of a premium upon his insurance policy. If the premium is not paid, the policy lapses and he and his family lose the protection for which he has labored and saved for years. The exercise of your right to vote con­ stitutes the premium you pay to protect the most valuable insur­ ance policy every written — the Constitution of th e U n ited States.” Fifty-three per cent of the poten­ tial voters on the average remained away from the polls in the last four presidential elections. It is generally anticipated that this average will be considerably reduced on Novem­ber 3. Republican Coniity Ticket. State Senate—B C. Brock. House of Representatives— -J. Brewster Grant.
