To bless and save our nolle youth From things that lead them wrong, Than throw temptations in their way That only curse and blight, And get their money day by diy And lead them Iarfrom fight. No ono can estimate the harm He does his fellow man Br renehing out a tempting arm And leading all he can Into the harmful paths of sin And evils of the earth. That holds them back Si they can't win The things of truest worth. AU this is done for money’s' sake, Regardless of the wrong; In spite'of. all the wrecks they make And heartecbes by the throng; So I had rather lead the way To lesus Christ the Lord, And get on earth but little pay. But wait tor God’s reward. To .yield the heart and bow the knee To money, pleasure, lust. Can never make one great Aou see, Nor worthy of our trust; Nor can it lift a fallen race That’s crushed with sin and crime, That needs our Lord’s redeeming grace” Ann all that Is suhlime Doughton To Quit The Hickory Record said it had learned from reliable sources that Representative Robert L. Dough, ton, veteran Congressman from the Ninth North Carolina District, will not be a candidate for re election in 1948. Dongbton upon completion of his present term will raundout 38 years tn Congress. The newspaper said it had se cured its information fsqm sources close to the Congressmen which are consikered reliable.” Xutting The Budget It is fairly certain now that Pre sident Truman’s record peace-time budget of 37. and a half billion dot. Iars will be substantially modified. Where the cuts are to be made is still in question, but if the reduc tion is to come to as much as six billion, it is certain that the armed ervice will come in for a subatan tial. part of it, despite protestations from the Army, tbe'Navy and De- pattment of State, There is general belief that ap. propriations for these services are altogether too high, and that if they half try they can function ef. ficiently o.nfar less money. During the war. when nothing mattered but victory, when they got every. thing,they wan tel without argu ment, they acquired extravagant ideas which they find it difficult to shelve. . But' if the money isn’t there, they will find ways to cut the garment to. fit the cloth, and the sooner they begin to trim their frills the better for the nation’s economy. That there is room- for govern . mental economy is unquestioned Ordinary expenses run four times as high as in 1939, and Pederal expenditures consume approxima tely 25 per cent of the national In- come. During the war the people paid these steep rates willingly if not too cheerfully, but now that the country is at peace and there is no longer good reason for such sacrifice, more and more ate ques. tioniog tha need for continuing, e normous. governmental outlays. We don’t Iiike to make X mark* after poor name. A ji Old Problem The move to'pnt a constitutional two term limit on the presidency spotlights a political question as old as the nation itself. George Washington set a prece. dent by declining a third term. Prankltu D Roosevelt completely smashed it. Detween these two occasions some 140 proposals to lim. it presidential tenure wete launched in Congress None of the previous measures passed both the Senate and ' the House- In order to becor.e a part of the Constitution, the current measure roust be ratified by at least 36 of the states in addition to gain, ing approval of 'he Senate and House bv two-thirds majorities. The propased amendment is Re- publican-sponsored but ' won the support ot several Democratic Con gressmen While President Eoosevelt’s suc cessful bids for third and fourth; terms were the only, full fledged breaks with the tradition, two oth er Presidents challenged it—Ulys ses S- G rant and Tneodore Roose velt. Two oears before Grant's turbu lent second term ended, there were reports he would, run again: In a letter Io a Pennsylvania Republican be said: ‘ I don’t want a .third term any more than I did the first. But he added “The people were not restricted to two terms bv the Constitution ” Congress virtually killed a third, term movement at t)ie time. The House, by a majority of 234 10 18, adopted a resolution in 1873 that * the precedent established by Geo. Washington and otiter Presidents, has become by nniversal concur, rence a part of our svstem of gov*. ernmenL” > Pour years after his secoitd term. Grant let his name be proposed for the 1880 Republican nomination. This was assailed as “Caesari-tn,” but Grant scoffed:- ‘‘The idea that any man could elect himself: Presi dent is prepostrous and a reflection os the intelligence of the people.” The convention chose Garfield as a compromise candidate. ■ '' * ; Theodore Roosevelt stepped up to the presidency after the sssassi- nation of McKinley in .1901.. Re elected in 1904. Teddv said: “On the fourth of March, I shall have served three and a half years —and three and a halt years con stitutes my first term. Tbe wise custom which limits the Presidents to two terms regards the substance and not the form, and under no circumstances will I be a candidate or accept another nomination.” In 1912 he became the candidate of tqe Bull Moose Progressives in the famous campaign which split the Republican party and resulted in the election of Wqodrow Wil son. / Teddy insisted be was still opposed to a third successive term but said the tradition did not apply to a Bresident who had retired and lost control of the party machinery. In 1916 Roosevelt’s name was placed in nomination for the prest dencv. at the .Republtcau conven' tion.but he made no campaign and Charlss Evans Hughes was chosen.

Investm ent Ms YenrIntestm m In A m etied * * * Chrirfmas Seals Foods, Each year the National Tubercu losis Assodatloii sponsors a cam. paign for raising funds to fight the spread of tuberculosis. This cam palgn is launchrd yach fall at which time local committees are organized do sell Christmas, Seal Stamps One- fourth of tbem ooey thus raised goes to the National Assodatlon to fhrther the work of that Orgamzer tion, Three-fourths of the fund remains locally to promote activi ties directed against Inhere ,losis— chiefly its control and' prevention The fond can, be spent only for authorized purposes in accordance with the rules of the Board of Di rectors or Executive Committee of the National Tnherculosis Associa tion, the general policy being to use the ftind In such a manner as to do the most good tor the largest number. ' The chief local agency concerned with the public effort to control tuberculosis is the local Health Department, which co-operates with the Ioeal Welfare and other public agencies. In order that the Christ mas Seal funds may be available and wisely handled therefore, it is neCessary that the local Tubercu losis Seal. Sales Committee be known -to the local Health Depart, ment and that the wbrk be so co. ordinated that the money raised in a county can be spent in the man. uer for which it is intended. A few months ago Stokrs Conn- ty took the lead In organizing t; r first Sehool Health Councils in the Health District composed of Davie. Stokes and Yadkin Counties. S'oke- County now leads again by organ izing the first County Tuberculosis Committee This committee is com nosed of a Chairman a Vice Chair man, a SecretaAl a Treasurer and one representative from: each town- ship in Stokes County. Tha pres ent Chairman of the Commivtee is Mrs Patti Fulton, of Walnut Cove. The pur,posh of the committee is (1), to receive and be responsible for the Christmas Seal Funds; (2), '0 inquire into and take an active interest in all public activities di rected against tuberculosis at the .'ocal level;:(3), to assist and en- courage 'such activities which in he opinion .of the committee are in accordance with the plans of the National Tuberculosis Association and to the best ioterest of the peo ple of the county; (4), to consider the funds available and authorize expenditures in accordance with the policies, and rules ef the Asso ciation. This puts the matter of Christmas Seal Funds on a sound business like basis. It will make the fund readily available when and where most needed for the pnblic good Stokes like many another county, has had' a local Seal Sales Fund, for sometime, but the awkwari manner in which the funds have been handled has not made them properly available and no clear proceedore has. previously existed wfierehy the funds could h c spent and well accounted for;. In Stokes County the Seal Sales Com mittee will under the present setup deliver all funds raised in the conn- tv by Christmas Seal Sales' (except actual expenses of the committee and the share of the National As sociation) to the ..Stokes County TubercuIiKis Committee. The.Iasi named committee will then * handle the fund as above outlined ' Some of the problems of Stokes County were aired and discussed by. members of the-local Tuhercn losis Committee, who met at the home of Mrs. Fulton; in Walnut Cove, Wednesday evening, Feb. i'9, 1947 No roass x-ray exami nations can oe staged locally at this time as funds and personnel. for such an undertaking are not avail able.

Meanwhile the local committee has favorably Considered and indicated its inten tion to authorize an expenditure not to exceed $250, for necessaty equipment'and materials 0 onen a sub office of the local health de- partinent to. I* located at Xanbury, the county seat. This will facili tate the services of a County Pub lic Healal) N ursein the Northern Section of the countv which at pre sent has no resident physician and no form of health office. The Dan bury Sub-pffice will not limit its activities to tuberculosis work on ly, but serve on a broad front as the committee feels that almost ev ery pnblic health activity in some degree ts a fight against tnhercu- losis. It is by no means far fetch ed to assume that vaccinations to prevent such a disease as whooping cough is in reality, e measure to prevent tuberculosis ' inasmuch as we. well know that whooping cough is one of those diseases which ' un dermine the constitution of a child and thereby paves the way for a tuberculosis infection. The pre vention of Otbor communicable dis eases may be regarded in the same light. Also tbeeffortsto improve the nutrition of our youngsters and their living conditions in general. The new Danbury office will oper ate along this general line It will be equipped however, to do the usual tests for tuberculosis and shuttle suspects into the proper channels for more complete exami nation and treatment, if necessary. AU of this work is important from an educational and practical standpoint It is something tangi ble 8nd worthwhile. We feet that it is a step forward and a good one.

The government is giving a high loan on the finer grades the loan is is not so large ' This was intended of course, to stimulate production' of better potatoes In that it soeceded, but at the same time, it encourages the fanner to sell the low grade potatoes a t. the market price and withhold the better Ones in order to collect tne larger loan. The result is that the better d o tataes are being thrown back on the fields to be plowed ' under fot fertilizer, or being sent to fertilizer to be processed..

Bilbo ol Mississippi, now drawing his month ly salary ot $1,250 while giving no i service to the nation, is sure to get j an- additional 30 days in which to recuperate—at the. expense ot the ! taxpayer, of course. ■-' Ij On January 4, the senate, by unan-j lrnous consent, laid Bilbo's contest-; ed credentials on the table for a period of 60 days: This backstage arrangement ^ d been worked out by senate leaders after Bilbo told Dixie colleagues he was "flat broke and in desperate need of hospitalization.” Both sides accepted the compromise in order to break a filibuster upon opening the 80 th congress. Bilbo’s 60 days “on the table” expire March 5 and he is slated to appear in the senate March 6 to take his oath and seat, something GOF leaders now find it expedient to postpone for at least another 3t days. Sen. Robert A: Taft, chairman of the senate committee on labor and public welfare, has calculated that at just the time Bilbo is due to ap pear, the senate will be debating ma jor legislation which he very much wants the senate to pass prior to March 31—the date on which John L. Lewis’ strike “truce” expires.♦ * . NEW VETERANS HOUSING Wearied by Tnunan’s housing boondoggle, some war veterans are moving independently to get roofs over their heads. They are organizing cooperatives to pur chase housing developments I built for defense workers during the war. Plans for taking over a num ber of such projects, including the Lake Forest development at Wilmington, N. C., already are near completion. However, the cooperative movement is caus ing an sorts of tronble because former defense workers mnst be evicted to make way for occu pancy by the vet owners. Federal officials now fear there win be other “marches” on the White House and congress as the coop housing drive gath ers steam.

Protesting proposed' peacetime conscription, a group of men picketed the White House and burned draft cards. Many were conscientious o b je c t o r s who -served prison sentences,. NEW FARM PROGRAM Some very basic aspects of the postwar agriculture program were laid before President Truman when Albert Goss, president of the Nation al Grange, called at the White House recently. Goss outlined for the President what he holds to be the four major approaches to the entire question of government-farm relationship and urged him to adopt one of them. “These are the four courses which have been advocated, boiled down to their essentials,” he told tha President. “A decision will have to be made soon: * “First, the farmer will plant and sow exactly what the government asks of him, and in return will be guaranteed an incotne approximat ing 75 cents an hour for his labor.” (Goss did not tell Truman, nor. does he admit it widely in Washington, but this is his own analysis of the National Farmers’ union program.) “Second," continued Goss, “the government ^ can let the farmer do as he pleases, planting as much or as little as he desires—a sort of laissez-faire philosophy.., And it can pay subsidies where necessary in or der to assure him a bpsic income. “Third, we keep production down to stipulated levels and place a floor, at 90 per cent parity, under farm prices.” (This is essentially the program of the American Farm Bureau federation.) “Or, four, we can provide a floor under farm prices high enough to prevent disaster, but not so high as to cause large surpluses.; This floor would fluc tuate according to economic con ditions and according to the par- . ticular crop. Froduction would be designed to leave some sur plus. “This fourth plan,’-’ '■ conclude: Goss, “is the grange plan, Mr. Pres ident. We like to talk of a stop loss floor, which would vary—some times above, somethnes below par ity. We -propose to have planned surpluses of some crops—potatoes, for instance—turned into starch or glucose. And the grange would be prepared to help dispose abroad of anything we found surplus to our domestic needs.” Truman did not commit himself regarding any of these alternative plans. So far his department of ag riculture has not yet taken any clear position on them; so all he could do was tell Goss he was tremen dously interested in the analysis. *. * • CAPITAL CHAFF; President Truman-now plans only a two-day stopover in Key West, Fla., following his return from Mex ico early in March.

Almost every'cure in the book has been suggested, with out covering much ,ground. For example George Preston Mar- - shall, owner of the Washington Red skins, suggests that all racing, entries, odds and selections should be trans ferred to the stock market page, away from the sporting page—and that no odds or selections should be carried on football, baseball or b a s k e t b a ll games. “Racing is legal ized betting,” Mar shal] says, “but it is proposition entirely, not a sporting proposition. It doesn’t belong on a sporting page. In my opinion no one connected with college sport, professsonal football or baseball, in a guiding capacity, should ever be seen at a race track.1 I can’t see much cure in this. Racing has had no part in the scan dals and bribery talk involving other sports. Cupid Black, former Yale football star, has a much soundersuggestion— “I can see no harm,” Black says, ■“in betting a hat or a reasonable amount with a friend on a football game. Or a fight. The trouble comes when you start betting with book makers, where a long array of even small bets can run into millions of dollars, which in turn can be used in the wrong way. I happen to love college football—every variety of football. No Bets With Bookmakers “I’d like to see everyone who loves football, who believes it is a great game refuse to make a bet with any bookmaker or any other profes sional gambler. No one is going to stop the betting on football or any -other game. Butwecanwreckthe gambling professionals if we leave them out. This would eliminate the big sums these bookmakers handle. There is always somebody'to bet with, apart from the professional gamblers.” This is a sound suggestion. There wiD always be the cheaper sort .of humanity who wDl stiD place their bets with the bookies.. But Die list can be cut down. The stumbling block is human na- tnre, the selfishness of what a top philosopher has called "the so- called human race.” All through the fading winter, a large part of the -headlines on sporting .pages have -been concerned with stopping the gamblers. If most of those, who feel they have to bet on games will only bet among themselves and leave the gamblers out theTe would' be no -problems of bribery or crookedness. This will be impossible to stop in racing, since racing is legalized gam bling or legalized betting in 26 or more states. But footbaU, basebaB, boxing and basketbaU still have their . thrills apart from any betting an gle. Those who happen, to like or love these games can solve the prob lem quickly along the lines suggest ed above. Majority Are Honest There are more than a few kinks in sport, since it is conducted by human beings. But its general aver age, in the way of honesty, is still weU above poDtics, labor unions or what is known as big business. I don’t believe anyone wiD try to dis pute this statement. The point is Diat the public at large demands a far higher honesty average from sport than it demands from poliUcs or business or labor onions. The public expects its sports to be completely clean, not nearly clean. Amateur bettors are not go ing to try to fix anything. Only a few professional gamblers will. But these few can wreck a sport if not suppressed in one way or another. The suppressing part isn’t as sim ple as it sounds. But at least a heavy curb can be developed. Aft er all the publicity Oiat has covered the sporting pages, any athlete from now on who doesn't report an at tempted bribe is either a completely dumb or a completely dishonest person. The terrific amount of money that has come into sport was sure to set the chiselers and crooks to work. Whatever happens, the directing heads of every sport wiD have to redouble any past efforts in the way of vigilance and guardianship. - • • . • BasebalFs Major Shifts The two major shifts of the year In basebaD belong to the game's strongest offensive player and die game’s best defensive player. This means Hank Greenberg’s shift to Die Pirates and Joe Gordon’s move from the Yankees to the Cleveland Indi ans. . . - ' Even at the age of 36 , many years away in the service, Greenberg was lusty enough at bat to lead Ted Wil- Uams in home runs and runs batted .in. - - GERALD BROWN W.N.U FEATURES Duke McCale, private ^detective, la In vestigating UMPmnrder of Curt Valktin- court, who was about to marry Veronica Bigelow, heiress to thirty million dollars. HcCalo trades Informatlou wlffi police lieutenant Donlevy, and learns that Veronica Is the one the police suspect.. The other members of the family an have alibis, hut none of them Is above suspi cion. This Includes Veronica’s mother, Sybil, her sister and brother, Victoria and Stephen, and Stephen’s wife, Karen. Sharl Lynn, former wife ot VaUaincourt, may also be Involved. HcCale and bis assistant, Rocky, hunt In the park for the murder weapon. They have reason 1 to believe that this; gun WlU be found In the old cannon. COAPTEB IC In sDence, Diey climbed Die rise of ground where the old World War cannon stood. It was Rocky who pushed his longer arm into its barrel, groping, grunting. He withdrew it finally, growling his disappoint ment. “No soap, Duke,” he said. “I touched bottom. Nothing there but a handful of leaves.” McCale was puzzled. “Leaves at the bottom of that shaft? Non sense. Let’s see. “He snapped the button on his fiashDght. In the round yefiow circle of Ught, he examined Die “leaves” Rocky held in his hand. An exclamaDon of surprise escaped his Ups. The handful of “leaves,” tangled, wet, was obviously a woman’s red- haired wig. Shari Lynn was noticeably done in. She IoUed on the divan in an almost unnatural atfttude. McCale thought for a fleeting moment that she had passed out or was dead. “Oh,” she said, “it’s you.” “The door was ajar,” he offered, and knew that instant that she had been expecting a visitor.She swung herself off, the divan abrupUy at that and staggered to her feet. She looked at him, her eyes snaky and vicious. “Get out of here before I caU the desk and have you thrown out. I’ve got nothing more to say to you—or your friend, the Ueutenant, either.” He fished out a cigarette and said over the flame of his Ughter, “So you told them your Dttle story?” She smUed like a contemptuous cat. “Sure. I told it.” “Why? Would you rather have waited uhtU morning to put the fin ger on Veronica Bigelow?” She laughed a high-pitched witch's laugh. “You’re a rat-trap.” “Maybe. ‘,Just thoiight I’d ask.” She pivoted slowly, and there was uneasiness under her bravado.“Listen, mister. Just what is it you want with me?” “I only want to ask you a ques tion or two and give you some ad vice.” “Look here,” he said. “I know it was you who ran. away from the VaDaincourt murder. You were the only woman who ran over the hUl. I !mow, because I was at an up stairs. window, and if there had been two womeq, I would have seen them both.” “You know a lot,” she-said sullen ly, “but you can’t prove it.” 4Tm on my way to.” 44Oh, yeah? WeD1 nuts to you. My story is stiD good. Besides, the woman had red hair. If you saw her, you’d know that.” 44Granted." 44WeIl, then?" 44WeD-then.” He threw the red wig down on the coffee table between them. She gasped. “Where’d you get that?” \ Shari Gets a Warning 44In the cannon where you hid it. Now get this straight Any cop or judge or lawyer is going to know after I produce this wig that your story is phoney. You should have taken more pains with it if you wanted your story to stick. You’re in a jam, lady. I think you’re going to be in a worse one. You’re mak ing a DtDe gamble on your own somewhere along the line and I think-you’d better teD me what it is.” ‘ - Her eyes narrowed, Tartar-like, for a brief-instant 44I1D give you five minutes: Think it over.” He went over to the desk, holding out his wrist as if timing her by his watch. ' It was five minutes of two. .. WhDe he waited; his eyes roved cynicaDy over the pictures of Shari Lynn’s boy friends. There was a sailor and a petty officer, a jockey, a tall, unhappy-looldng ma rine, an army Deutenant, and—Mc- Cale suppressed a smile—an acro bat in white tights. There were sev-. eral others,'.proving that, besides her cathoUc'taste, Siari was evi dently attracted by anything in uniform. There was no picture of Curt VaDaiiicourt.- McCale wondered at that. * At two o’clock, he turned to her again. She surprised him by be ginning to talk almost immediate ly. She had found the wig at VaDain- court’s apartment, days before. He had 'some woman' who came there' to see him, someone disguised as Veronica. She denied she was the woman. She didn’t know, hadn’t the sDghtest idea who could have been checking up on him. No, who ever was Watching evidently had to think that only Verofiica went there. It was hardly rational, be- cause you’d think the only person to whom it would matter would be Veronica herself. . Lately the worn: an hadn’t come any more. Hence the wig which she had found. “Didn’t Vallaincourt condde in you at aD?” McCale asked. “No.' Why should he?” 44Fve played with the idea that you were once his wife,” \ _ A secret look behiiid the mascara told him he was right, but she said nothing: He got up, reaching for his hat on a nearby chair. At the door, he turned, his dark-eyed face aD sharp points and edges in the light. “You’re in a bad spot.” He tried to control the hardness in his voice. “I’d lock the door if I were you.” He saw fear burning bright in her eyes. "Is that the advice you were go ing to give me?” . 44Yes," he said. • He became deadly serious. Some how he had to get through to her. He sDpped a business card from his waDet and placed it on a nearby table. ' 44If you’re frightened or just want to talk,” he said, 44CaD me at the number on that card. You ready Rocky pushed his arm into the barrel, groping. should talk, you know. I mean more than you've talked so far. I know you’re holding back something important—something that is dan gerous to someone. I think you’re planning to seD that information. A DtDe blackmaD, maybe. But let me. warn you, you are dealing with a cold-blooded murderer. You’re in danger, Miss Lynn. 44You know that.” 'She laughed loudly, hysterically, 44You fool,” she screamed. 44You think you know-a lot WeD, what do you know? Justa lot ofbim kI told you. You think- you can scare me into admitting something. I can take care of myself. WhaFre you trying to do? Get out! Get out!” His Jast look showed her ashen and distraught She was stretched on the davenport, hair disheveDed, mouth lax, deep circles’ under the horrible eyes. - 44ThaFs how she’D be when she’s old,” McCale thought as he reached the pavement. He walked slowly down Tremont street, gulping deep breaths of wet air. VictoriaBigelow Seeks Her Letters The buzzer sounded in the outer office. McCale looked at his .watch. It was three in the morning... He walked quickly to the door, press ing the button that released the lock' in the vestibule. He opened.the office door, looked out into the hall, and wondered who could be caU- ing at that hour. Sharp heel cUcks told him it was. a woman coming up the stairs. The head and shoul ders, then the figure- of a girl swathed in furs, with a cowl, con cealing most of her face, rose out of the stairWelL She saw him, hurried forward with a short laugh and stepped in side hurriedly. She pushed back the cowl of her Persian lamb coat and he saw the black hair and Beardsley face of Victoria Bigelow. She perched herself on the comer of the desk, loosening her coat and swinging one leg. 44I could stand a drink. You might be that hospitable.” SDmDy he poured her a whisky and soda from the cabinet. He stiD looked at her with hardly, concealed hostUity in his glance. 44About my being IoDoWed here,” she said, sip p in g her drink, “have no fear. The police didn’t even put a' man' on the house. Old unimpeachable family stuff.” !4You can’t be sure.”. “Sure enough.” She shrugged the suggestion away. She sDpped off the desk with a languorous movement, meant to be provocative,. McCale- supposed. Scrutinizing her closely, Jie was aware of the' complete artificiality of her ,.make-up. 'She had tried to effect an exotic appearance, in the; manner of the cinema, but succeed ing in looking more like one of the Furies. His musing swiftly encom passed the whole lot ot them, the Bigelows en masse. With the pos sible - exception ot Miss Adelaide, tbey were unreal, without authen ticity. He watched Victoria with a bored expression as she fingered-a book on the desk, examined the Lester Varga painting of a Nubian woman which hung over a bookcase to see if it was an originaL “It’s late,” he said, breaking the sUence. 44You came to see me about something. It must be im portant for you to caH -at this hour. I hate to hurry you,' but if you’ve satisfied your curiosity, perhaps you’D teD me what this is aD about.” ■ She turned abrupDy and came over to him. 44I want you to do something for me.”' 44What can I do for you ?44 His voice was urgent and exasperated. “Well”—she fumbled for a phrase —“you’D probably have an—an op portunity to go through Curt Val- Iaincourt’s things, won’t you?” He looked up, pursing his Ups. “We-e-D.” Better not teD her Die cupboard was bare. 44There is something of mine— that is, Curt had some letters that belong to me. I thought—” : 44That I might take them out from under the eyes of the poDce? I’m afraid I wouldn’t have the chance. By this time, the place has been gone over with a vacuum cleaner.” 44But they wouldn’t just be in any ordinary place. I’m sure he had a hiding place somewhere in that apartment. A waD safe or—or something.” “I doubt it. It seems perfectly obvious that you have already looked in every avaDable place.” 44Why I—” “. . . Tut, tut. Your intonation gave you away.” 44My, you’re clever, aren’t you?" 44Let us say—weD-trained. . You visited VaDaincourt often?” 44No, I—weD, that is, I went there once in a while for cocktaDs, with a few friends.” She was on her guard now. 44Often enough to look about for something that was mine.” ‘ 44VaDaincourt was hanging onto your correspondence.” “Oh, no.” . 44Then why didn’t you just ask for it?” “I did, but he’d only laugh and- say he’d give, them aD'back, when —"I She caught herself.

I want those letters. Doll get them?” She moved closer to him and stared him in the face boldly, a viperish intensity in her eyes. For a -moment, McCale gazed deeply into her vicious DtDe souL “Not-from me.” His voice was as cold as steel. He turned away from her with a brusqueness intendedcto.convey.that he was through with their DtDe interview. ” He spoke quieDy. '4Tm sorry. I wish you’d take my word for it that there are none of your letters at the VaDaincourt dpartment. No letters of any kind, in fact.” She eyed him narrowly.' 44You4Ve been there already.” ; He nodded. “Thanks, but I don't beDeve you.” ' t. 44AD right,” he went on wearily, “don't believe me. But I assure you, there is nothing thefe. There’s not a wall safe or a sliding panel in the whole shebang.” . “the poDce—” “I hardly think so. I was there before ^ they arrived.” She seemed suddenly, drained of vitaDty. There was a thwarted look on her face. “So that’s that.” 44Just that, I’m afraid. - Howevern I think you’D hear from your let. ters.” A Parting Shot Startles McCale “Oh, my Godt' What a stink they wiD make strewn aD over the- front pages of some slimy paper. It’d take more than the Bigelow money to—” . 44I don’t mean that." “Oh!” The echo of it hung'-in the air. . She gazed at' him once more as if to reassure herself of his honesty. His inscrutability seemed to have baffled her. 44We shaD see what we shaD see,” she said ,finafiy, a note of derision and forced facetiousness in her tone. I He foDowed her to the door;, watching her down the stairs. At the , turn, she loidced back at him. She stopped, waiting' a momefit un til he became aware that' she in tended to explode a fare&efi bomb- sheti. ' ~ ’ “If they don't , turn up, Sherlock, I4D go to Shari Lynn for them, what?” She. laughed insolently as she continued down.' McCale shook: his head in utter weariness as he went back in. He was sure' the interview had been -a fiasco. At least .his; share of it. Things were piling up too quiokly, top fast, one conclusion contradict Ing another.

LESSON FOR MARCH 9 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. JESUS WASHES THE DISCIPLES’ FEET LESSON TEXT—John 13:3-15. 34, 35.MEMORY SELECTION—A new com4 mandment I give unto you, that ye love one another; as I have loved you. Giat ye also-love one another.—John 13:34, On the . eve of his crucifixion our Lord gave to his foDowers a striking example of how true humiDty shows itself in service'to others. Almost in the shadow of the cross the . disciples had faDen into an ar gument about which of them should be greatest. Christ showed them the way of true greatness by an act of menial service, giving -Diem an example for their own Dves, a pat tern of love. I. Action (w. 3-11). He who was about to wash his dis ciples feet was fuDy conscious who he was, whence he came, what his power was,, and where he was going. Verse 3 gives us a dear view of our Lord’s knowledge of himself .as divine, sent by the Father and to return to him. He was conscious that He. was King of kings and Lord of lords—all things had been put into his hands. What foDowed would seem to be a mistake—a misfit In the pattern of the life of a being so great as the one described in verse 3—except for the fact that it was Jesus of whom it was said. He knew that real greatness proves itself in the abibty to stoop if need be to minister to the hum blest need. It was -just like Jesus to take the place of the servant. Jt is just like him -to do the loving, thoughtful, compassionate thing for us today. Peter’s impulsive refusal to be Washed enabled the Lord to teach him, and us, a needed lesson. The one who had come dean and well- groomed to the feast needed only to have the dust of the road cleansed from his sandaled feet. Just so the one who has been cleansed from his sins by the blood of Christ returns daily for the cleaqsing of the stains and soD of the journey through 'this- wicked world. We must remember that this constant cleansing (I John 1:7) is necessary. -It is not enough to make a decision for Christ and receive salvation; we need bis daily grace for daily Dving. II. Example (w. 12-15). When he resumed his place at Die table, Jesus faced a humbled and ashamed group, -of men ready to have driven-home to their hearts the powerful meaning of the exam ple which had been set before them. They caDed him Lord and Master, and he agreed that they were right. Now he had set them a pattern ot lowly service. They had al ready sensed Die rebuke involved, 80: he stressed only the positive side, the need for Diem to do what he had done. . It is one thing to understand what has been taught, it is another thing to put it into practice. Jesus con ditioned his blessing on the doing, rather than the hearing (see w . 16, 17). We are told In James 1:22 that the one who is a hearer of the Wqrd and not a doer .of it is self deceived. He is fooling himself about his supposed spiritual prog ress. God is not .deceived by it, and usuaDy his feDow men are not de ceived by his profession of what he does not have. How sad Dien to go on deceiving himself and how fool ish. ~ni. Command (w . 34, 35). It is reeDy not a matter of choice for the believer whether he wiD Uve in the Ught of this great example— it is a commandment of God. Oh, yes, it is a commandment of love, but that makes it not less but more binding on us who beUeve in Christ. By act and example he set before his disciples the great and new commandment of love, expressing it self in lovinug service. The measure of our love for our brethren is the love of Christ Jesus. That love, we aD agree, was without limit, unbelievably great, inex^ pressibly tender, infinite in its purpose and power. We cannot measure up to it. What then shaD we do? Surely we must give to our very, limit and beyond that Umit by God’s grace, of our love for . one another. Nothing less wiD do, if we are to keep his com mandment. . Such love between CSiristian breth ren has always been the most, ef fective kind of testimony for Christ. As men see true and sacrificial love shown belween .Christians, they are drawn to Christ and the church. The opposite is also true. Divi- and strife among beUevers quickly become known to the world, and are always a ground for scornful rejection of the truth which the church professes- to believe and is asking the world to accept. We can not effectively apply the gospel rem edy (and it is the only remedy!) to a strife-torn world while we' are 'en gaged in unlovely batties with one anoDier. “By Diis ShaU .all men know that ye are my disciples,” said Jesus, “if ye have love one for an other.” _~t.

The ground was white during the morning hours. A number of counties are ask' ing the legislature to givevthem a referendum on whether or not wine and beer can be sold in said counties. We don’t know how our Representative stands on this question. Many counties seem to want a chance to vote on whether or not the sale of wine and beer should be legalized. Wants Stores Open It is none of my business, per' haps, but it seems to me that the merchants of the smaller commu nities and towns are taking a big chunk of pleasure out of life in their communities b y heading into a program of closing their places of business on Saturday night. For local and rural resi dents going into town on S.tur- day night is an institution of as long standing as the Saturday night bath, and as beneficial to in- proved social relations. There isn’t anything I can think of at the moment that does as much for keeping town and country contacts, which so many talk of as important, on a sound basis— Ediror Tne Appleton, Minnesota, Press. We believe this Minnesota edit- tor has something. Until a' few short years ago all stores in small towns and villages were kept open until nine or ten o’clock and some times later, on Saturday nights. Farmers, together with their entire families would drive in on Saturday nights to meet their friends and neighbors, do their shopping, buy the children ice cream and candy and have a good time in general. . Take Mocksville in the good old days, some fifty years ago. We can remember when Calvin San ford, Z. N. Anderson, W. H. Bailey, E. E. Hunt, June Bailev, and other merchants kept their stores open six nights a week until nine or' 10 o’clock. Town and county folks would assemble a- round the red-hot stoves on winter nights and discuss everything horn the Civil War to tandem bicycies and bloomers—from the stealing of the election form Tilden to the Cleveland panic. The country was damned and saved night after night. Nobody was in a hurry in the good old days. There were no autos, no speed cops, no good roads, no electric lights and the old lamp-lighter would wend his way around the town lighting the oil lamps that were few and far between. W e sometimes wonder if people were not happier and enjoyed life more 50 years ago than they do today? There wasn’t much money in die country but people didn’t need much. A suit of clothes could be bought on Saturday or any other night for less than a man now has to pay for a good shirt. Eggs, were 5 cent a dozen beef-steak 5 cents a pound, pota toes 25 to 50 cents per bushel and fiour $1.40 per hundred pounds. Rural folks brought their produce to market in wagons, carts and buggies and did most of their week.end trading o n Saturday nights. Only a few years ago the sidewalks around the. square in Mocksville were packed and jam med with humanity on Saturday night, but now a personpassing through, our town on Saturday night is reminded of Goldsmith’s "Deserted Village.” ' The A. B C. Stores Dear Editor Stroud:—I don’t think we need any more liquor, if we will look around and see what it is doing. A stands for more accidents on our highways. The mote drink ing the more accidents and the more, lives lost by it. . B stands for more broken hearts and more broken up homes. The more liquor the more broken hearts and more broken homes we will have. C stands for more crime and more cases in the courts. The more liquor the more of these we will have. I don’t think we need any more. We would be better off if beer, wine and liquor were all done away with. Whatare we bringing our young people up to with all such evils. We know that they will drink it. Couldwe expect anything else if they see'us drinking it. Yes, it is wrong to have it because the Bible says so. Pltoseread Hab. 2:15, and see what it says: "Woe unto him thatgiveth his neighbor drink, j that puttest thy bottle to him and makest him drunken; also' that thou mayest look on theirriaked- ness.” So you see, dear friends, what it says. If we are willing for Our county and states to he flood ed with liquor we will surely have to answer for tq if we believe the Bible. So let’s try and' get some one to do better and live for the Lord, and not give them some thing to make them worse. Yes, it is alarming, and where will we end. Read Matt. 18:6, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:1-2, and GaL 6:7« Yes, we are going to reap what we sow. j So friends what kipd of seed are - we sowing for ourselves and for our children? They are apt to be what we make out of them. Let’s try and have mpre peace instead of more trouble. ' Yours truly. G. M. WILLIAMS. Opp»s«.

VkaJfome in WASHINGTON BY Walter Sheaid WNU C eaevew tat .• -■ ■ WNU WasfiiagtcaBureau.1026 Bye St., N. W. Useltss GommiHees Formed To Provide Chairmanships COME weeks ago your Home Town J Reporter wrote that this new congress already had been dubbed the “get ready” congress- from the- fact that its operations were con ducted with an eye to the 1948 presi dential election campaign, already, under way. . If any proof were needed for this, statement, tHe senate of the 80 th congress furnished it in generous proportion. By high pressure tactics, in violation Of the spirit of the congressional reorganization act and of the procedural rules of the sen ate itself, it pushed through resolutions calling for creation of new spe cial senate committees on war investigation and small business. Whetiier these committees are needed or .essential to the public wel- fare.is beside the point, and whether or not the regular standing commit tee of the senate could' handle the subject matter to be investigated also is beside the point. The violations were so flagrant, the connivance so obvious, that stal wart Charles William Tobey of New Hampshire, former governor, con gressman, farmer, banker and man ufacturer, who is not afraid to say clearly what he sees and thinks, said: .. ' - “The country has just witnessed an example of the difference be tween votes in the interests of clean government and votes to carry out file program of a'special group.”-; tMore Lollipops Laterf Then thrf gentleman from the Granite state proceeded to flay his colleagues for “inefficiency,” for “incompetency,”- for “slap - dash work,” for "breaking down the'ef ficiency statute,” for “running the train off the rails,” for “deliberate by-passing of standing committees,” for "creation of chairmanships for the faithful and the indication to those who are not first in line that there may be more lollipops for .oth- ers later. . > - “I am a Republican,” thundered the New Hampshire solon, "and I desire that my party shall be the majority voice-fa" guiding the ship, of state, but I do not .wish-its guid ance to. be In disregard of our form of government and Of the,principles vital to the preservation of our form of government. What of party regularity? What benefit accrues to my party now fa control of the sen ate from the creation of these special'committees? The party will control all investigations whether they are assigned to special commit tees or conducted by standing com mittees .. . so the party gains noth ing from the creation of continuance, of special committees. The only gain- which accrues to anyone is to some individual who acquires a chairmanship or to some other in dividual who gets a place on a special committee, conflicting thereby with some other Senator of his own party who has a place on a standing committee empowered by statute to. investigate the selfsame subject." As a matter of fact, both resolu tions were rushed to the floor of the senate without assignment to appro priate committees, without hearings, without consideration of the full committee','without a vote' of the committee or the filing of a report to the senate, after bargaining with other committees concerning juris diction and after refusing an oppo nent the usual'courtesy of a “pair” vote. The GOP steering committee wanted file two special committees, (I) to provide chairmanships for Senators Brewster of Maine and Wherty of Nebraska and (2) as springboards to provide potential issues for the 1948 presidential cam paign. Report* Neglected There is no question but that small business needs protection, but a sen ate and house committee on small business has been active approximately five, years and their reports are' available, hut no legislation has been placed before either house or senate as a result of their in vestigations. The house and senate have prece dent and material for aiding small business without any future investi gation'll they would but enact sug gested legislatton to-carry out the report and recommendations of the Committee, for Economic Develop ment, which is itself composed of ■ small businessmen.Senator Tobey, who is chairman of the senate banking anti- currency committee, already has named a sub-committee of his standing com mittee, to investigate small business problems, three of whom are already members of the senate special SmaU business committee. So there/will be duplication of effort and jurisdic tion and “by that.action we make a mockery of the. reorganization act,’’..Senator Tobey saiu. There may be a rash of special committees despite the pious prom ises to: stand by the congressional reorganization law.

It is next to impossible to sow vegetable seed thinly enough so that the young plants do not crowd each other in the row when they come up. This is particu larly true when the seeds are very smalL Carrot seedlings, for example, should be thinned to stand about an inch apart when two to three inches tall. Otherwise the roots cannot develop as they should. Kadishcs are of better shape, too, if the plants are thinned to stand about an inch apart while still tiny seedlings. Green onions can be thinned by pulling and using the extra spears for the table when they come up too quickly. Beet seed should be planted at least 114 to 2 inches apart for each little pel let usually contains two to four seeds. Vhen the plants are four to five inches tall, every other one can be pulled for greens. If this is done at intervals while tops and roots are small, space will gradually be left for some of the roots to reach good size. Sowing leaf lettuce seed sparsely helps to avoid the extra work of later thinning. Even when the stand is fair ly thick, instead of thinning the planis some home gardeners prefer to cut the larger outer leaves, leaving the inner ones to grow. If you like to use each lettuce plant intact, thin to about two inches apart when small. Then, as they become large enough to use, pull up alternate plants and leave the others to grow. Bush beans should be planted two to four inches apart and just enough seed lings removed from the riAr so that the remaining ones are four to five inches apart Beans usually produce more abundantly when the plants do not crowd each other. Turnips usually do better and grow more rapidly to table size if given three or four inches in which to spread. It is important that turnips grow to eat ing size quickly to avoid being tough1 and fibrous. Of course the thinnings make delicious greens when young and tender. Grow Perennial Flowers From Seed I —Photo. Oourtesr Ferrr-MorSe Seed Co. You can save considerable garden money and add new zest to youn gardening or growing your own perennial flowers from. seed. tThe best quality seeds cost only a few cents a packet and with simple care will produce scores of plants to being color and beauty to the garden for years to come. Most pwwwwh grown from seed bloom the second year after sowing. Seed should be started at about the$ ------------------— —— — — same time as that of the annuals, such sinnias and marigolds. The secret of success is to get the seedlings to transplanting size early enough so that when set In their permanent places in garden or border, they will get a good root-hold before cold weather comes on. A specially prepared seed bed or seed box is best for starting perennial, seeds, A seed bed can be easily prepared by knocking the bottom out of a good- sized shallow wooden box and sinking the sides into the ground. The top should be about two or three inches above the surface. Use finely prepared, crumbly garden loam containing plenty of humus. It Is important to locate tlie seed bed where it will be sheltered Aom strong winds and from sunlight during the hottest part of the day. A tied box or fiat may also be used, with holes bored in the bottom for drainage. This has the advantage of being mov able to sheltered locations when nec essary. I Some perennial seeds are vtry mall. Mix them with sand, so that they will not be sown too thickly in the row and merely press them into the soil instead of Covering them. Larger seeds need a shallow covering of soil, firm the soil down on them so that they will make immediate contact with the mois ture and plant food. Keep .the soil- moist but not wet until the seec: sprout Some gardeners spread dam :< burlap over the surface Iqfumishnc- ed moisture, removing it at the fin, sign of spouting. .Here are a number of perennials thai. beginners can start from seed v: :'i almost sure success: Columbine, gr.-.i- lardia, coreopsis, hollyhock,' paint r. daisy, sweet william, hardy pinks, h?.rv atyssum, and the violas. Perennial seeds usually take .'some what longer to germinate than those c annual flowers. Don’t be discourage-- if the tiny sprouts do not show them selves for two or three weeks after tk - seed is sown,- ZOOMAra OEORCC EBCNSON PmUttl-Mttdltr CtMtpt ,SttttpJUtttttt Wages atid Prices Ahput 15 months ago Mr. Henry Wallace, then Secretary of Com merce under President Truman, as serted that wages in the automobile industry could. go up 30 per cent without paices erf cars going, up at all. It wasn't true, as all informed people knew at -the time. But the statement tended to gain public sup port At least- the statement helped gain ' public toleration for a long strike, which ended with about a 20 per ’ cent raise in wages. But even then the OPA was immediately i convinced that increases, in prices were made necessary. Little by lit tle OPA raised the prices on cars until it had granted an average in crease of .22 per cent. In short, for a 20 per cent increase in wages fop auto workers, the public was re quired, by OPA, to^pay 22 per cent more for cars................ Same Play AgainNow the auto workers are asking for another raise of about 25 per" cent in wages. Mr. C. E. Wilson, president of General. Motors, as serts that such a raise will also put prices of cars up by 25 per cent. Mr. Alfred P. Sloan, chairman of the board of General, Motors, also declares that wages cannot be raised without raising prices. ' Some labor lqaders are maintain ing that wtges in general can go up about 25 per cent without increas ing prices. From last year’s experi ence the public will quite readily understand that if wages go up again, prices must also go up. This leaves juSt one real issue. Is it to the interest of workers and the rest of the public for prices- to keep going up and up? \ Tit for Tat Some unions^ are now declaring that the raises they got .last year are already neutralized by increased prices of the things they must buy. This is evidently true. Now if an other raise in wages is granted, only to be followed by a still greater boost‘in prices, workers will be no better off. In fact they, and all the rest of us, will be worse off. Higher prices will finally cause buying to drop off. Then jobs will begin to drop off, leading to unemployment and finally to depression. There is a way for everybody to gain — both workers and the gen eral public. That way is for manage ment and workers to cooperate to increase production so effectively that goods will become plentiful- and prices will go down. ' The Sound Way Then the workers will have the equivalent of a real rajse in wages because their present wages will buy more food and clothing. AU of the public will benefit In the same way. This is sound economics. But for wages to keep going up and up, only to be followed by prices going up and up, is. unfortunate for workers and everybody else. If: we want to destray the Amer ican economic order and force our country into state socialism, that is the way to do it. Fifteen months ago many wondered seriously if Henry Wallace believed that wages could go up 30 per cent in any industry without prices going up. Many now wonder if any informed peoplereal ly think wages can go up i f per cent without raising prices. If we try it we will again learn the hard way. M O K im AKKAD GEORGE S. BENSON PttMittl-MatiiHg Cotttgt ' Sttrtg. AritHtas Provefl fey Use Inventors and .'builders of ma- Aines speak a forceful language. Once I heard an engineer discuss ing a new invention his firm was about to manufacture and sell. “It’s fit to use,’’ he said, “but not per fect. We’ll sell a few hundred of them and work the bugs out.” In etber words—with a great many WMgle using the -thing, he could Ieara: from their complaints how to make it better, . Semetimes the first model of a de vice is too Complicated. In other in stances, it might need attachments to make it serve its purpose bet ter. As Don Quixote remarked, “The test of the pudding is in the eating.” Practical service to the public is the final proof, of an inven tion’s worth. In service, defects eeme to light; in service, improve ments are suggested.Usage Will Tell How I want to point out that this principle is just as rightly applied to governmental devices as to mechanical ones. Ih service is pre- cicely where statesmen find out how good their theories are. If a law or a system proves to be a nuisance, the public will be quick to discover Ht and if they are permitted' to ex- themselves, will .say so read- . This is Vdqr advocates of this and that brand of Socialism avoid tell ing the history of socialistic experi ments. Most of them have come te wch dismal ends. Ih Oieory they aM very pretty but in service they don’t work. Accordingly that’s why I go before meetings week after week and talk about the high stand ard of living In America. The Amer ican system actually works. Revised Early Ihtiiers of this republic, back in the 1770’s when they wrote and rati fied the Constitution of the United States, certainly did not imagine Smt they were drawing up the speci fications of a perfect state. They Understood from the beginning that Siey would have to try it out in serv ice and “work the bugs out!” It uras .a-grand piece of work but it has been changed—and improved. Ftamers of the Constitution ex pected changes soon, and they came. The first addition to their masterpiece was added in less than a year , after its ratification by the Util state. Evra these statesmen’s supporters did not consider their work flawless. It is not flawless yet, -but there are two things about it: It is the best form of government ever devised, and Subject to change M r, as it was then.- AFlexiblePIan America’s economic system, free private enterprise, the only one compatible with our Constitution as -H stands, ,can lay no just claim to any dreamer1 s idea of perfection. Tb prevent the strong,’ the shrewd and the rich from taking advantage Cf the weak, the trusting and the peer, many restraints on business huv* been made into laws.. Here is the system's virtue: It can bechanged. - Private enterprise is not new. It is far advanced in that process of government baaed on usage.

Much of the snow melted as it fell, but the ground was covered to the depth of a little more than two inches. The snow was preceded by rain. Up to this time the groundhog has made good. Here’s hoping that the worst is over. Buncombe Heard From Asheville, N. C., March I. Dear Mr. Stroud:—I saw from articles recendy appearing in The Record there is a movement afoot to establish, or legalize, liquor stores in Mocksville and Davie County. I am not a prohibitionist by any means, and I am fully con vinced that the Jegal liquor store is the answer to a perplexing ques tion in some sections and in some communides, but I refuse to be lieve that MocksvilIe and Davie County have sunk to a level that would place this community in a position to have to resort to such an answer. In fact, I believe Mocksvillcand Davie County have so many good law abiding citizens that the very suggestion of such a thing as legal liquor stores is an insult to the intelligence and moral st tus of the community. If. Davie County has so degenerated in the past quarter of a century that the time has now come when law and or der cannot, or will not, be enforc ed, I am glad that I can remember that county only as it was when I was a boy. I think of the many good men and women whose influence I be lieve it was that made Davie Coun ty and Mocksville such temperate, law abiding and peaceful commu nities. Among them were Miss Mattie Eaton, Miss Laura Clem ent, Mrs. Julia Heitman, and quite a number of others. I mention these because it was my good for tune to fall under the influence of these noble women, and I feel de pressed to realize that the liquor store proposition is a disgrace to their memroy and life work, es pecially Miss Mattie Eaton, who was a close friend and co-worker of Franses E. Willard, who more than anyone else did so much for the cause of abstinence in Davle Countv. Mr. Stroud, when the propon ents of the liquor stores are beat en good and hard, I think you should single them out and pub lish their names, so that we, as well as coming generations, will know who it was that undertook to lower and degrade the com munity; which some of us, though long absent, still like to remember as the Kold home town.” R. S. MERONEY. D o Y o u R e a d T h e R e c o r d ? Opposes Liquor Stores John T. Rogers My reason for not writing a- bout the liquor store in Mocks- ville was not to see how certain men (as you said), would line up. My heart and m ind is ever ready to be on the Lord’s side and a- gainst everyrhing that is sinful. I have waited to see if there was a woman in Davie County who would express their opinion, and as none have so far, I am glad to write a few lines as to how I feel about it. “He that is not for me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.” Matt. 12:30. I enjoyed Rev. F. R. Loflin’s writings in The Record of Feb. 26th| very much. To m v mind he is thinking of the situation in a Christ-like manner. To be sure, one soul would be worth more than all the gain in money. Jesus said. “Suffer the little children to come unto me; and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God. Mark 10:14. Any and all who are in favor of a liquor store in our own county or elsewhere, will', with their in fluence, help to drive the inno cent children away from Christ, and are also upholding the ones who are already drinkers. Stop and consider how many your vote may lead to eternal death. How will you feel when you meet God at the judgment, to hear Him say you caused your own child-and others to be lost? Remember we shall all receive a just trial in that day. AU things that lead to sin and destruction have attractions of the evil one, that cause poor, weak humanity to be drawn deeper and deeper in the paths of sin. I have 11 grandchildren living in Mocksville, from about two to 24 years of age. They and hosts of others would pass the liquor store many times, and pause to look as the attractive display of evil, and (sad to think) might be overcome with the temptation to drink. There are many parents and grandparents who would like ly spend the last years of life bro ken-hearted because some who loved the body more than the soul were the cause of a liquor store being-in Davie County. May each one in true gratitude to God, who is our only help, rise and stand against the aw ful. evil, and work to make our communi ties, County and State one that people can be glad to call home.

W,' Lilientlial Expounds Democracy to Senators A GAINST the background of a crowded committee room and amid an atmosphere of spine-ting ling dramatic tension and pin-drop silence, the smug complacency of this capita] city. has been jarred into acclaim for a son of immigrant parents who gave the senior mem ber of the United States senate a lecture in fundamental Democratic precepts. It was a lesson which every person, every official and bu reaucrat in every unit of the gov ernment down to the township and school d is tric ts in ev e ry co m m u n ity of the land should take to heart. The son of immigrant parentage was David E. Lilienthal, former head of TVA and now chairman of the highly vital and important atomic energy commission. The senator was Kenneth D. McKellar, of Tennessee, who is serving his 30th consecutive year as a member of the United States senate. During the 79th Congress he was president of that body and acting vice president of the United States. He is vindictive, petulant, tyrannical and grudge-bearing. Like some others in congress he often has used his official position to browbeat and smear nominees and witnesses be fore senate committees in a manner foreign to any democracy, and more akin to totalitarian dictator ship. Senator McKellar has been a bit ter political foe of Lilienthal be cause he could not control him nor make a political football out of TVA. He sought to prevent senate approval of his chairmanship of the atomic energy commission by hurl ing innuendos as to his character, his competence, his parentage, without avail. Finally he began heckling him as to whether or not. he was a Communist and believed in communist principles. *Integrity of IndivtduaV Then the drama unfolded and in a voice, low but distinct and elec tric with fervor, Lilienthal said: “Senator, my convictions are not so much concerned with what I am against as what I am for. . . . I be lieve, and I so conceive, the Consti tution of the United States to rest upon, as does religion, the funda mental proposition' of the integrity of the individual; and that all gov ernment and all private institutions must be designed to promote and to protect and' to defend the in tegrity and the dignity of the individual; that is the essential meaning of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, as it is essentially the meaning of religion. “Any form of government, there fore, and any other institutions which make men means rather than ends, which exalt the state or any other institutions above the im portance of men, which places arbi trary power over men as a funda mental tenet of government, are contrary to that conception, and therefore I am deeply opposed to them. - “The Communist philosophy as well as the communist form of gov ernment fall within this category, for their fundamental tenet is quite to the contrary. The fundamental tenet of Communism is that the state is an end In itself, and there fore the powers which the state exercises over the individual are without any ethical standards to limit them. That I deeply dis believe. . . . “It is very easy to talk about being against Communism. It is equally, important to believe those things which provide a satisfying and af firmative alternative. Democracy is that satisfying, affirmative alterna tive. Its hope in the world is that it is an affirmative belief, rather than being simply a belief against something else and nothing more. “. . .Among the things we must practice is that while we seek fer vently to ferret out the subversive and anti-democratic forces in the country, we do not at the same time, by hysteria, by resort to in nuendo and smears, and other un fortunate tactics besmirch the very cause that we believe in, and cause a separation among our people. . . cause one group and one individual to hate another, based upon mere attacks, mere unsubstantiated attacks upon their loyalty. Legal Safeguards' “W h e th e r by 'administrative agencies, acting arbitrarily against business organizations,'' or whether by investigating activities of legis lative branches, whenever these principles . . . of the protection of the individual and his good name against besmirchment by gossip, hearsay and the statements of wit nesses who are not subject to cross- examination . . . are violated, then too, we have failed In carrying forward our ideals in respect to democracy.

BEnER THAN PILLS FOR CONSTIPATION Finds Famous Breakfast C e re a l M o s t H e lp f u l o f A U &Have you given up hope of be- “regular” again? Then read sincere, unsolicited letter: "I am a registered nurse and-1 know what a problem constipation is, especially - with patients deprived of their usual physi cal activities. Where pills brought tem porary relief, eating KELLOGG’S ALL- BRAN regularly actually prevented irregularity in more cases than I can mention. Your product is a great boon to our modern age.” Miss Katherine E. Walsh. Town Hall, Newington, Conn. Yes, eating ALL-BRAN regularly often brings lasting relief from constipation due to lack of bulk in the diet. For best results, eat it for breakfast every day— and drink plenty of water. Try KELLOGG’S ALL-BRAN for Ifl days! If by that time you are not completely satisfied, send the empty carton to the Kellogg Company, Battle Creek, Michigan, and get double your money back! ALL-BRAN is not a purgative but a wholesome food made from the vital outer layers of whole wheat. Eat daily either.as a cereal, or in muffins. Ask your grocer for KELLOGG’S ALL-BRAN.

MOCRSVILLE N, C., MARCH 12. ,947 Garden ‘Greens’ Can Be Continuous M i J- *T ||ilt| H H N hm JLt '—Photo Courtesy Perry-Morse F*cd Co. P lenty of leafy vegetables, raw an d cooked, are necessary in the diet of botfc children and grow nups in order to prom ote vigor and w ell-bping. In a home garden they can be continuous for m any m onths if various kinds are grown. Leaf lettuce is one of th e first green things to appear. The young leaves can be picked for the table w hen only a couple of inches in length w hile th e sm allei inner leaves are left to grow . T Jie f - ------------------ - - - - - - -:----------- same is true of spinach; the tender new leaves are as good raw as cooked w hen chopped and served w ith oU and vinegar dressing. O r, tre at them th e sam e as “w ilted lettuce” by pouring over them a m ixture of ho t bacon fat, vinegar, and bits of cooked bacon. To vary the flavor of these greens, add a sm all aniount of peppergrass. T he frilled eurly foliage of this upland cress is as easy to grow as lettuce.F or long season greens swiss chard is a w inner. No leafy vegetable stands hot w eather better. T he outer leaves should be kept picked, the inner ones left to continue grow ing, and Uie resu lt will be tender, brittle stalks and leaves for a long tim e.O f the num erous root tops used as pens, beet, mustard, and turnip arc increasingly popular. Like all vegetables they are best w hen young. M ustard and turnip particularly should be used for greens only in th e early stages. The tops of m ustard and turnip combined are appetizing—a favorite of grandm other’s dajr. B y sowing seed of kale in spring or stnnm er in th e N orth and A ugust to O ctober in th e South, fresh greens car be picked from the garden even aftei th e com ing of frost an d light snow. In fact, som e frost im proves th e textu re and flavor of kale, m aking it a real tre at for late autum n and w inter m eals. D w arf C urled K ale is one cl the best varieties for hom e gardens. —Photo Courtesy Any-Ilorse Seed CO.B eal enjoym ent of your hom e vegetable garden depends largely upon p rc p c preparation of th e vegetables fo r th e table. G ather leafy crops early in th e m orning, if possible, before th e sun wilts A em . If they are to be kept u n til a later m eal, w ash and cover them and place In the refrigerator. P ick peas and sw eet com w ithin an h o u r of getting them ready for the kettle; if gathered v e ry ^ long before Cookingy th ey lose bothsw eetness and flavor. G ath ering any vegetable too long before using causes. Ioes of vitam ins. Scrape o r peel vegetables thinly; valuable m inerals are ju st beneath the outer skin. Y oung carrots, beets, and sum m er squash should m erely be scrubbed and n o t peeled. N either should vegetables be soaked in w ater before cooking. This, too, causes loss of m inerals. Cook vegetables quickly and only until barely tender. U sually they taste better if slightly undercooked than they do if soft and m ushy from over- eooklng. In boiling, use only a sm all •m ount of w ater, saving w hatever li quid rem ains w hen th e cooking is finished. If there is too m uch to serve w ith th e vegetable, keep it to add tc soup. In boiling vegetables m ake cun. th e w ater is re d ly boiling before ad ' ing them . If p u t over th e fire in col •water, vegetables lose color, flavor, tc:: ture, and m uch of th eir food value V egetables fresh from th e garcc: need very little dressing u p to mol:: them deiiciously appetizing. Simcl!' m ethods of cookery are best w ith i \ sim plest of tseasonings added.

Highway Safety Rev. Walter E Isenhmir. Hiddenite. N. C. There is quite a bit of discussion these days in tegard to highway safety. It is well that our state and nation become alarmed over the situation. Unless something is pone to prevent the horrible wrecks on our highways it will become worse and worse. O the thous ands of precious lives that are be. fng destroyed each year by high way accidents, the most of which could be prevented ii the millions of voters in Amirica would obso. Iutely and positively make war on all wet politicians and liquor forces! Just here is wtwre the great trou ble lies. What is the nse of spending mil lions of dollars to Dolice and patrol our highways, arrest thousands of reckless drivers, put them in jail take their license away from them, or send them to onr county roads, onr prison camps and our peniten tiaries, and in the meantime let the main cause of such recklessness remain? It is like trying to cure a disease that is destroying the health of mankind, aid killing multitudes withovt removing the cense. If the cause is removed the people will get well. It seems that onr poli ticians and our leaders are trying to formulate plans by which to mske travel far more safe than it is at present, with the idea of po Iicing onr towns and cities and pa. troling our highways, which will and is costing many millions of dollars, and may be worth some thing, hut in the meantime doing nothing to temove the cause, which is drunkenness. Why not stop ev erv licensed 'government distillery on American soil, and put every Iiqnor store ra America out of bus ineas as soon as possible, and this will solve onr highway slaughter? At laast this will stop the greater part ot it In all proqabilitv tbree- iourtbs of the horrible wrecks wbick are injuring and killing mil lions of people today, are caused by liquor, hesr and wine It is nonsense to talk about high, way safety, and saving the lives of many thousands of our youth, and the lives of all ages and classes of humanity, as ioug as the nation is flooded with alcohol Absolutely. Jnst be honest and sav a big amen to the truth, And it is likewise nonsense to think we can bare a dry nation with wet politicians fill ing our various offices. We need a mighty man at the bead of this nation as President who is abso. Iniely and positively one hundred per cent dry, and will'make war on liquor with all bis might. Then every governor, everv sheriff, every ooltcemon. every patrolman, every parent, every preacher, every tea cber, and every p ofessed Christian should stand with the dry forces one hundred per cent, thus back ing up our President and all the officeholders. Certainly. Ezery per son certainly ought to he a strong prohibitionist. No one can drink liquor, or stand for it or vote for it, and be a good citizen Certain ly we can’t be Christians and vote for liquor. Auy man who Is wet, or ieahs toward the wet forces, isn't At to fill a public office. This is plain language, hot it is no plai ner than the facts are Listen to this qnotation from Re preseata'ive Rov.-ter, of Vance county: “ There are .more deaths and maiming by drudken drivers and careless ones in North Caro- I na than abji other ssa’e except two White our.state is apparent Iy low among other states in health we are third from the top in high way fatalities.'’. Our record in 1940 according to a newspaper report, was 3,632 fa talities in North Carolina, and in 1946 it was 5,928. Wbat an alar miuk increase! Oh. the thousands of saddened and hroken hom*s. the broken and bleeding hearts, mostly on account of liquor and drunken driving! Yet, notw ithstanding, there are tens of thousands of peo pie right here in North Carolina who favor liquo. stores, many of whom would do alt in their power to make every town and city of any size in the state a place where ev erybody conld go and load np on liqnor. What an awfnl principal! How on earth can anyone who has a heart with one bit of love for mankind staud for liquor, beer and wine? It is sa'd that liquor kills more people than all wars. What we need to do as a coun try, state and nation, in order to have anvthidg like highway safety and to save tens of housands of precious liv“s and prevent their souls from being plunged into hell, is to make war on liqnnr and bring back prohibition again at its best Not only will it save millions of lives through the years, but it will save billions of dollars as well. Brethren, say “ Amen ” End Of The Draft President T uman’s request, that Congress allow the wartime draft act to expire March 31 was cer tainly not made without the ad- vica of the War department, which has made no secret ot its worry for the last year that it wonld not have enough men to keep the re quired oceupation forces in Ger many, Japan, and Korea It has been generally believed that only the threat that the draft !aw would be invoked again kept young men enlis'ing voluntarily for the armed forces, and, wbeth er that is trne or not cannot be known positively until we have tried doing without the d aft for a month or two To keep the Army permanantly at the prescribed strength ot 1,070 - 000 will require 30,000 enlistments Lately the number of recruits has been only 20,000 mon hly, but the Army expects enlistments to in crease in the months ahead. The War department did not ex plain upon what circumstances it based that hope, but, if it is not realized for the rest of the year; the draft law will certainly have to pass again. Perhaps the Presid ent’s purpose in asking that the draft law will certainly have to he passed again Perhaps the Presid ent’s purpose in asking that the draft be allowad to expire was 10 make sure whether we can do without it or not, tor he reserved the right to ask for repassage in case enlistments fall below the needs of the Army It will be interesting to have tbis question settled to the satis lion of all. We h ive tried high pay, short enlistments and, choice of service branches as inducements, nit so far we have barely been able to keep the Army at the req aired strength, even with the help of drafted men already in the service. We confess to a serious doubt that 30,900 enlistments can obtain each months without thn stimulus ot the draft. Nohndy will be hap pier than we if it can be done, but past experience indicates that a new draft law will haveto be pass, ed after a few month*' trial of the strictly voluntary s»stem Americanyouths are not mili tary minded, and no inducement is going to make them so.—Charlotte Observer. Code On bis tour an inspector of elty high schools came before a class of girls. He wrote in the black board ‘LXX X ’. Then peering over hisf spcctacles at a good look ing girl in the isr row, he asked: •Young lady, I’d like to have you tell me wha, that means.” Tfie Rirl replied, 1 Lovc a n d kisses " Swats Judge Alley In Rowan conntv Superior Conrt R L. Shoe, former tax Collector, was tried,for failure “ to pay orer and deliver Jo the treasure of R t wan countv certain funds and money in>the sum of £18,552 ti. Judgment was suspended on pnv- ment of cost* provided the ex-col lector reimbursed the county in the sum oi $501.81 How the court arrived, at this sum we do not know, but here is evidently a case i which justicp was tempered with politics, or per haps it wonld be be'ter to say that- the politics tampered with justice. While the embezzling taxgathrrer mightv near wrecked the Rowan coun'v Democratic mechine, his fellon politicians must have rallied to his defense nevertheless, and brought such pressure to tv-ar that the defendant was let off practical Iy scot-free.. Judge Alley in pronouncing judg ment is reportment is reported to have said: “ This is my judgment and n^t that ot the solicitor or any one el'e. and if the people are to criticize let it be directed agains' me." Rowan voters were critical en ough. They let their feelings be kuown in the last fali's general elec tion when the usual large Demo cratic majority in the country was whittled down 10 uothiui;, and had it not been foi the ptrsonal propnl eritv of Ueoresentative Dvighton and the esteem in which he is helri by his constituents throughout the district, the Ninth Congressional District might have gone Republi can, which wonld have necessitated a re gemmanderiiig ot the" district to keep it in the Democratic fold.

When first news of the crime fol lowed the feiniliar old pattern of no clues; none ot the mob roemhers recognized; and protestations that no efforts would be spared to bring the guilty to justice-sections of northern press broke <>ut with re newed demauds for a Federal anti- lynching law which would be puni tive and discriminatory in its ap plication But now the surprising thing has happened. Thejailor remembered tbat most of the members ot the % lynch gang wore chauffeur’s caps and that many of the cars that car. ried them were taxicabs. It was a simple thing thin); 10 round up the city's taxi drivers, anti prolonged grilling brought concessions. The matter doesn't end here. .It still remains for a South Carolina jury to convict the 31 participants if thty are guilty; and since the South is getting somewhat sensi tive about this lynching business, there is reason to believe that there jury will fiud in accordance with !evidence.—Statesville Daily. i ---------------------- Morrison SwataWets Seen Along Main Street 1 W e don’t like to m ak e X m arks a fte r y o u r nam e. “Yes, sir, ItoIdthem in Raleigh and I ’ll tell them here that von can open a liquor store in the ritorning with prayer and have a choir stan. ding on the liqnor hariels singing, 'How Firm a Foundation,’ and it’s still liquor, the same damnable stuff that yon’d get from the boot leggers or wherever you got it,” declared Mr. Morrison. "Aud yon cannot get awav from it. It's liquor whether the State of North Caro lina—that's all thit ABC store bus iness mean--, that the bishops and the presiding elders and the slew ards and the deacons and everv one of the rest of us In North Car olina is in the liquor busiurss whe ther we want to he or not —it’s still liquor regardless of how whan, or hy whom it is being sold.’’ Mr. Morrison emphasized his con tention that past sessions of the General Assembly have virtually ’ assassinated democracy” bv per mitting the legalization of liquor selling in varions counties even though the State has never renoun ced in a state-wide primary the ac. tion it took in an early sta'e wide, vo’e that established prohib tion in North Carolina. The General As sembtv declared Mr Morrison, had nn right to set aside and nul|ity the mandate o. the citizenship, and the only way hy which il could proceed in a democratic mauner to change the laws with respect to liqnor would be to provide for the citizens to vote in a state wide re ferendum as they bad voted be- jore. Then the citizens as a whole couid nndo what they had previous ly done or vote to continue , under a legally dry regime ‘ They have got the thing so messed up now,” he declared ' that it has come down to a point where what is done abont liqnor, which snould be a state policy, depends in large measnre on what the indi vidual representatives and senaiors from the various counties want to do about it in their respective conn ties—and often these men don’t know when tnev go to Raleigh just what they want to do. “ Thev talk about making inonev out of liquor Well, that is ridi culous. They will send {80 mill ion out of tha stale say. to tbe li quor distillers in other states and they’ll get back maybe seven mil lions, Now isn't that making mon ey fast? And that money sent out 0 ! the state tor liqnor will just a- bout drain .the state and it will take a lot of things that they shon.d have away from the children of this state I’m against it. Every body knows how I stand on liquor. And I’m going to tell them about it, too. I feel Gne and I ’m going to get in this campaign and hit a few lioks I don’t think the peo pie of Norih Carolina want liqnor stores and I think they nave a right to .say what they want ” So says ex-Governo. nnd ex-United States Senator Comeron Morrison, in The Charlotte' Observer.

We propose henceforth to tax our selves and to take care of ourselves. We are fed up with subsidies, doles and paternalism. We are no one’s stepchild. We have grown up.

Congressman Byrnes declared that every single federal aid to states should be examined on these points: First—is it essential to the nation’s welfare? Second—is it not histori cally and constituUonally a more proper function of state and local governments? Third—are not indi vidual states, better able to assume the entire responsibility for these activiUes? The fly in the ointment is, of course, that some wealthy states may be able to take over responsi bility and financing of these pro grams, but others are not.

Make your artiele short and write only on one side of the paper. Be sure and sign your name to any article sent us. The North Carolina legislature isn’t going to. let the good people of this state vote on whether or not liquor can be sold legally. Some of these days the wets are going to be left at home when the ides of November roll around. Davie’s Senator and Representa tive are not inclnded in the wets who are holding down scats in that august body at Raleigh. Suppose The Record does lose a few subscribers as a result of its fight against liquor stores in Davie County? The editor of this rag of freedom thinks the lives of our boys and girls, young men and young women are worth more than all the subscriptions we will lose. There is no moneytary va lue on the lives of our young peo ple—they are worth more than all the money in the world. T o O p e n New Cafe Jesse L. Severt and James C. Sheets, of Ashe County, are build ing a 20x40 concrete block build ing on Depot street, adjoining the Mocksville Laundry. The build ing will be ready for occupany by April 1st. and will house the City Cafe, which will be owned and operated by Severt & Sheets. W ith our town growing at the present rate we are sure that there is room for another cafe, and we gladly welcome these Ashe Coun- j ty men to the best little town in j N orth Carolina. j F a r m e r s H a v e A C h a n c e j T o S ig n C o tto n I n s u r a n c e C o n tr a c t All Davie County Gotton Crop Insurance policy holders will be given an opportunity to swap their I old policy for a brand-new 1947 • policy that has been simplified and designed to provide coverage more nearly equal to their invest m ent in the crop at the different stages of production, according to I J. N. Smoot, chairman of th e : Davie County Agricultural AAA j Committee. ! Mr. Smoot explained that all I policies are written on a continu- 1 ous basis and that each cotton I farmer with a 1946 contract will j be contracted and eqplained th e! | various changes and given an op portunity to sign a new contract. Proctection is still offered a gainst loss from all unavoidable j hazards. Premium payment term s: remain remain reasonable. | A sales campaign, conducted by I local farmer committeemen is j now being conducted to give all j cotton farmers in the county an I opportunity to insure iheir crops | against loss. | Landlords, tenants, and share- i croppers may insure their share i of cotton crop. The policy pro-: vides protection against loss from , j the time the erop is planted until it is weighed in at the gin or Jan. j j 31, 1948 whichever is earlier. jj The cost of operating the pro- | grain is paid by the Government I { and all premiums paid in by farm -' ers are used to pay losses. .

His hurricane meeting with Rocky Grazi- ano happened to be one of those thrillers you won’t see twice in a lifetime. There was no other fight even close to this one. I can’t recall any other fighter who e v e r showed more intes tinal fortitude than Zale showed that Septem ber night, when he came out of a foggy dream land to knock out Graziano. It so hap pens that Zale is in the toughest divi sion of them all. Among those after his middleweight crown you’ll find Jake LaMotta, Marcel Cerdan, Geor- gie Abrams, Charley Burley and one or two others—all tough. Graziano, the toughest of the lot, has had his li cense revoked in New York, but the National Boxing association has ruled that he can fight in any place under NBA's jurisdiction. This gives Rocky a lot of territory to swing his lethal fists in. ZaIe had been away from ring action so long when be met Grazi ano that his handicap was known to be a heavy one. Various crowds had seen too many baseball and foot ball players from the service show a startling lack of old-time form, in cluding speed and timing. Zale had been away longer than most, close to four years. So when Graziano knocked him down early in the fight and then had him dazed, bewildered and badly battered, his reign apparently was over. But Zale down the stretch proved several things. He proved that he was dead game and could take the hardest punch the hard hitting Graziano could throw. He also proved that he had a punch of his own. He proved that he knew how to fight—and what to do in a storm. Faces T ough C om petition With more time in which to get ready, it stands to reason that Zale should be a better fighter in 1947 than he was in 1946. His win over Graziano gave him greater confi dence, for one thing. He is also sure to be in better all-around physical shape. Yet in this present middle weight outfit no one is safe. Tony is surrounded by a pretty rough crew, the best in any other weight division, and he will have to be better than good to keep his crown. LaMotta is a rough and ready customer who won’t be any soft mark. LaMotta is a hardy man to hurt and he also can hurt on his own. Cerdan made a promising debut over here and he should be bet ter on his next visit, when he has a longer time to become acclimated and to get in better physical condi tion. There is no Stanley Ketchel, Harry Greb or Mickey Walker hang ing around the premises, but there is more class in this section than the ring has known for many years. Just how the tangle will be unraveled is another guess. LaMotta must be given a chance and so must Cerdan if he can repeat his opening perform ance, or show improvement. In addition to the leaders named, Jersey Jones still insists that his man Burley can slash his' way through the entire list. With the heavyweight bunch out side of Joe Louis, in such a sad state, it begins to look as if the mid- dleweights must take over a big part of the show. But as good as many of his challengers are, they will find Zale none too easy to shove around. W G E R A L D W.N.U. FEATURES Doke McCale, private detective, Is ln« Vestieatliig the murder ol Curt Vallain* court, wbo was about to m any Veronica Bigelow, heiress to thirty million dollars. McCale obtains some important clues from Sharl Lynnt Vallalncoart’s former wile, and from Victoria, VeronIca1S els* ter. Veronica, the No. I suspect, Is called again to headquarters. McCale questions the members of the family. Stephen, VeronlcatS brother, tells how he met Vallalncourt In Chicago, when his sister, Victoria, was running around with the handsome adventurer. It was Victoria who introduced ValIaIncourt to Veronica. McCale considers this slgnlf* leant. Stephen also reveals that he knew Shari Lynn In Chicago* Tivo W est C oast Stars The west coast is keeping an alert eye on the coming actions of its two favorite baseball sons. Their names are Joe DiMaggio of San Francisco and Ted Williams of San Diego, both reporting from the extensive domain of California. DiMaggio, bothered by physical ailments, had an off year. Regard ed as one of the great outfielders of all time, a brilliant artist, fielding, hitting and throwing, Joe finished with the worst season he has known in big league baseball-. He fell back with many other big league stars who had been in war service. Williams, who looked as if he were on the verge of wrecking the entire American league without help up through mid-July, began to skid lat er and spent an unhappy fortnight during the 1946 World series. De spite this decline Williams batted well over .340, which left his all- time average still-over -.350.* • # Ulcers S to p p ed Joe Anyway Joe and Ted were not what they had been in their former seasons. Only Dom DiMaggio came along to repair part of the damage, as far as California was concerned. Bobby Doerr and Johnny Pesky were two west coast features from further north. Joe DiMaggio wasn’t feeling any too well when he report ed for spring training. A few stom ach ulcers didn't help him. After an early start at high speed, Joe be gan to fall away. CHAPTER XU 4Td met her. We all met once or twice. But he divorced her, you know.” He shut his mouth, and his brooding eyes half closed. He looked at McCale with an expression that said as plainly as words could, “And that’s all you’ll'get from me.” McCale changed the direction of his next questions strategically and said with the suddenness of a cata pult, “You were spying on your wife and Curt Vallaincourt at The White Abbey night before last, weren’t you?” He thought he had explod ed a bomb with that, but curiously enough, Bigelow was ready for it. "No, indeed. I just happened to be there. I saw them talking. What of it? Karen comes and goes as she pleases.” “You didn’t, then, suspect her, say, of having an affair or some secret connection with him—say something she wished to keep from you?” Bigelow laughed hollowly, ,the watchfulness gone from him. “Not at all, Mr. McCale.” He accented the mister disdainfully. “Whatever gave you that absurd idea?” McCale thought—he has been ly ing to me now for the last three minutes. These were the question? he was so sure I would ask first, the ones he was not sure he was ready for. And I, like a fool, have gone all around the bam, allowing him to collect himself. He shrugged. “You haven’t a thing to tell me that might help the growing case against Veronica, then?” he asked, a reasonable barb in his question. “Nothing at all.” Stephen rose, well aware that he had acquitted himself, in his own mind anyway, with some success— that the interview was over. He paused at the door. “Who is next for the inquisition?” he asked mockingly. “You might ask your mother to step in for a moment,” McCale an swered, wrapped in sudden fury. "Sorry , to bother you, Mrs. Bige low,” he said, somewhat disgrun tled. “Oh, no, I mustn’t be spared,” she sighed. “It’s all so sordidly nec essary.” “Why did you go to the White Abbey the night beforfe last?” he asked without preliminary. “Why, I - I wasn’t there . . . I—” The unexpectedness of the attack made her forget momentarily her Dostevski role. Quickly she sank into a chair. “You were seen, you know,” he went on. “Your altercation with your daughter-in-law and your en trance into'the club.” “I’ve got a right to go anywhere I want. As for my daughter-in-law, I often have to be a bit harsh with her. She neglects my son.’ ’ “But you were heard not to be lieve her when she assured you that the man you came to see was not there.” A hard, beady look came into her eyes. Her face sagged as 'if the veneer were about to crack. “Did you see him?” McCale prod ded. S y b il A d m its She Saiv th e Shooting “I told you I did not go to—that is, I did go inside the lobby, but decided not to go upstairs. I re turned home.” “You didn’t see Curt Vallaincourt as you had planned, then?” “I tell you I didn’t go upstairs. Besides, I went there to get my son. He had quarreled with Karen and I was afraid he had started out on a—a binge.” She said it very defiantly. McCale wondered what her an swer would have been if she had not known already that he knew Stephen had been there. He felt he would get nothing of importance from her now that she was back in the groove of the tragic role she was determined to play. “One more question, then,” he said, to her surprise and disap pointment. 41What did you see, yes terday . afternoon, when, you, were, in front of this house at the time of the murder?” The blow of it visibly staggered her. Again there was the automat ic reaching out for her glass of sher ry. She gasped. Her eyes were filled with sheer terror. Her mouth grew slack. “Oh, no," she whimpered. “I was not there. I wasn’t. You’re mis taken.” His voice became hard, his look insistent. “You wore a gray rain coat,” he said. ‘‘Both Miss Ade- : iaide and^ I saw you.” I 44No, no—she couldn’t have. She didn’t—hasn’t—” 44She would not tell you. You know that. She has not admitted it even to me. But I saw you, Mrs. Bigelow. I know it was you.” He waited, tense, as she pulled herself slowly together. She arose with cold determination. 44Very well, then,” she said at last. 44I was going to protect her. God knows why. I didn’t actually see the shooting. It was foggy, slip pery, you know. I have very small feet and sometimes lose my bal ance. I was picking my way. I had my head down when the shot came. I was so frightened—and for a moment dazed. I didn’t know it was Curt. I only saw a man stag ger a moment. He seemed to re cover himself and walk on—toward me. In my shock I stepped off the sidewalk and crossed the street. It was only when he fell to his knees on our steps that I knew something terrible had happened. It was then I saw Veronica running across the Common path. Veronica—” she drew herself up majestically. 44Why didn’t you immediately come into the house? I should have thought—” "Oh, but I 'couldn’t. Don’t you see?” She was Cornell now, loyal, I 44A hard nut to crack,” was all McCale made of her. misunderstood, rejected. 44If I’d gone right in, everyone would have known, wouldn’t they? I’d have had to say I’d seen Veronica. I couldn’t dov that—I couldn’t.” McCale wondered why, if she couldn’t face telling it then, she was able to be so glib about it now. 44I slipped down the other side of the street to the drugstore for cigarettes. I met Stephen there, you know—or don’t you?” 44Yes. I have seen Qie police re ports,” he said gravely. 44Will you send your daughter in please?” She -accepted her dismissal with the air of an actress taking a cur tain call. “You’re making your farewell tour,” McCale chuckled to himself, his mind busy with her treachery. You never would have guessed that Victoria had been up most of the previous night. The circles un der her eyes were no darker than usual. She slunk in, her mouth the same insolent gash of red. 14A hard nut to crack,” was all McCale made of her, as he smiled to himself. 44Too bad you weren’t able to find your letters in Vallaincourt’s apart ment last night,” he opened. She did not seem startled. She tossed her dark head. ‘Oh, you know that, do you? How did that get out?” 44My assistant, who helped you search. He was quite smitten by your charms.” 44That ox.” Her lip curled. 44So he works for you. He told me he was a policeman.” "Well, he’d make a good one, at that.” McCale chuckled. “You’d have recognized him if you’d been home the night before. He was on duty here all that night. Where were you, by the way?” "That’s my business.” T hose L etters C ould B e D am aging 4Perhaps it’s mine. Or at least the police may want an explana tion. Were you at the Vallaincourt apartment, by any chance?” 44My little romp with Curt was over long ago.” 44Was it?” he asked quietly, hai;d bunches showing along his jaw. 44Yes. Who says it wasnt?” 44The red wig you wore when, you impersonated your stepsister, Veronica, each time you went there.” “You’ll have to prove that.” Her eyes grew hooded and he saw her hands tremble. His shot in the dark had been a good one. “Proof?” he said, smiling. 44I don’t need to prove it. It’s self- evident. I know a lot more about the woman that Curt Vallaincourt knew than you can imagine in your wildest dreams.” A crooked little smile curled the edges of her mouth. 44Oh, what does it matter, any how?. We’re all sunk,. I did want those letters though. You know what I think? I think you know where they are. I think you could get them for me. Why won’t you work for me? I said I’d pay you well. I’ve got enough money.” Her eyes were bright. 44What good would that do?” She got up, turned her back to the window, and made a quick, pleading gesture. 44Shari Lynn has them. She must. You hinted at it the other night. You can act as intermediary—get your cut—anything. Only I’ve got to have them.” “Why?” She was impatient in her anxiety, boldly took another task. 4lSee here”—she came dose to him, dropping her voice conspira- torily—“you’re working all out for Veronica, aren’t you? Now listen. If those letters come out, it will put her in a worse spot than she’s in now.” 4Tm sorry, but I don’t follow you.” 44Oh, Lord, I thought you said you were a detective. Look. Veron ica found out, somehow, that I had known Curt rather well. Don’t ask me how. I don’t know that. We had a whale of a row over it, but I denied it. Do you see? Now, if they get her for his—his death, and the letters are found, it . will prove she was right. Don’t you get it? It will give them a motive. If I can get them back, I can destroy them.” He chuckled cynically, striking his hands together with a muttered exclamation. 44No,” he barked, “not really! Don’t tell me, in all seri ousness, that you want to protect Veronica?” 44Of course. Why?” 44Because it just occurred to me, being a detective, that if you had those letters you might just possi bly not destroy them. They make' such a swell motive.” He bowed. 44Not only that, my loyal young lady, but you seem to think—as a matter of fact, you’re practically convinced yourself that Shari Lynn has possession of those letters. Suppose I tell you that the police have them safe under lock and key. Evidence, you know.” “It’s a UeI” “Yes,” he said, 44so far as I know, it is a lie, but how did you know?” She shut her lips together and just glared at him. 44You may go," he said uncon cernedly. 4TU talk to your sister- in-law next. See you at the in quest.” A few minutes later, the sound of the piano playing stopped abruptly. Shortly afterward, the door opened and Karen Bigelow came in. 44I think,” he observed, ,4that of all the Bigelows, you belong least of all to this house.” 44You mean, perhaps, that I am an acquisition—let us say—an or nament?” 44Exactly. You can tell me more about them than anyone.” 44Oh, but I couldn’t.” She made a slow, somnolent motion, not so much in horror or disloyalty as of deadly indifference. 44I think you can,” he persisted. '4Let me tell you what I know to be true. You all were acquainted with Curt Vallaincourt in Chicago—at about the same time Stephen Bige low was, shall I say, rushing you into matrimony? You knew his wife, too, Sarah Linsky, wasn’t it— the present Shari Lynn?” She was watching, him covertly from under her long lashes. T h e U gly P lot B egjns to Show 44I know you finally consented to marry Stephen," he continued. “I’ll confess, I’ve wondered why.” She shifted her position impercep tibly, placing her long white hands on her knees. 4I had suffered all winter with a pain here.” She touched her arm. 44A nervous ailment. I thought then that I would never play again. I thought—” She had thought, of course, that she could- forget her music in the bosom of a rich so cial life. How wrong she had been. She found herself embroiled be tween a jealous mother-in-law and a jealous husband. She had with drawn, therefore, to her Nordic hauteur, until boredom and unhap piness had driven her back to the keyboard to find that sheer neces sity enabled her to overcome her illness, forced her to play again. McCale stood very straight and still before the glacial Karen Bige low. Her hauteur and boredom Uid complete indifference was beginning to get him. “Look, Mrs. Bigelow,” he said very quietly, 44I know that Victoria knew Vallaincourt and that was still going on even after his en gagement to Veronica, and that he still saw. Shari Lynn as well. I know, too, that you once had some connection with him, because you went to the White Abbey the night before last to buy back some let ters from Miss Lynn. They must have been old letters or Valiain- court would have had them and you would have had to deal with him. The fact that he showed sur prise when you made the exchange with his ex-wife proved that.” X44What else do you know?” she asked wearily, her voice tonelesa. 44W ell-" he hesitated. 44I know that your husband also saw tha exchange.

Released by Western Newspaper Union. LESSON FOR MARCK 23 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts Se- Iected and copyrighted by International Council of-Religious Bducation; used by permission. PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN BROTHERHOOD LESSON TEXT—John 17:1-11. 20*23.MEMORY SELECTION—And now I am Ho more In Uio world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou bast given me. that they may be one, as we are.—John 17:11. The voice of the Son of God lifted in audible prayer! What could be more sacred and more blessed? He who had by act and example taught his disciples loving service (John 13), and had spoken to them words of comfort and assurance (John 14- 16), now prayed for himself, for them, and for us. While he spoke most intimately with the Father as his only begotten Son, he prayed aloud that his disci ples might hear his prayer and join with him in it. This prayer is often called the high-priestly prayer of Christ, and rightly so, for here the “one medi ator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (I Tim. 2:5) spoke as “the High Priest'of mankind who begins his sacrifice by offering him self to God with all his people” (Godet). First we find that he prayed for himself as he spoke of I. Salvation Finished—Then Glory with the Father (w . 1-5). He looked up and said, 44Father," that was all. No struggling, no pleading, just the recognition of his own divinity, his intimate and unique Sonship to God. Throughout this entire, prayer the same close rela tionship is found. It was not as we would pray '4Our Father,” but “Father.” Jesus was the Son of God. Yes, he was and is God. He and the Fa ther are one in blessed eternal, in finite unity. But as he is in the Father, we who believe are in him, So the poet well says: 44Near, so very near to God, Nearer I cannot be, For in the person of his Son I am as near as he.” ■ This divine Redeemer, who laid down his glory when he came to earth (Phil. 2:7, 8) to be a Saviour, was now ready to take up that glory again. He spoke of the work of sal- vation as completed—for in his obe dient soul the death on the cross which was just ahead was already accomplished. Now he was ready for the Father to glorify him even as he had glori fied the name of the Father. That prayer was answered, ai>d Christ now sits at the right hand of the Father in heaven. What a glorious Saviour we have! His prayer was soon turned to those who had believed in him. They were precious to him, for they were given to him by the Father. n. Out of the World—Then Kept by the Father (w . 6-11). There is something powerfully as suring to the believer to read the words of Jesus which declare that these who had believed on him had been given to him by the Father. They belonged to the Father, and he gave them to the son. They kept the Word of God, and thus they knew the Son as the manifestation of the Father’s name. What could be more certain for time and eter nity! Note that they were taken 44Out of the world”—that does not mean that they left this earth." They lived here as we live here, but they were de livered from that evil world power which opposes God. Some professed Christians who find their greatest delight in fellow ship with file Christ-rejecting world had better read carefully here, for it appears that the one who is truly in Christ is not “of the world.” These disciples had to remain in the world (though they were not of it!) and they needed to be kept. Now that the earthly ’ ministry of Jesus was to be brought to a close, he tenderly placed them anew in the Father’s mighty hand. Again we say, what could be more blessedly secure than that! We must note that our Lord had a special interest and prayer for his own. Verse 9 obviously does not mean that he is not interested in all mankind. He died for them (John 3:16). But here his prayer was for his own, and in that prayer the world was left out. That makes us feel still more assured in him. He, the blessed Son of God and only Saviour, prayed for me, for you! The closing words of verse 11 reach out into the third-petition of our Lord, as he prayed for their in . Unity in Christ—Then Testi mony to the World (w . 20-23). - The verses between the foregoing division and this one <w. 12-19) are important. Our Lord was concerned about the hatred of the world for these who had received the Word of the 'Father, and yet he would not have them taken out of the world. They were to be his witnesses—even as we are to be in our day. They must remain in the world; but being one in Christ and sanctified through the truth, they were to be kept for God and used by, him.___ C L A S S IF IE D D E P A R T M E N T BUSINESS & INVEST.

M ost hom e gardeners like to grow annual flowers. Ccm ing quickly int< bloom from seed sow n each year, they are th e easiest of nil !lowers to grow am bring a w ide range of vivacious color for a long p?riod.Poppy an d bachelor button are tw o of the earliest. The low -grow ing edgers sw eet alyssum and candytuft, are also fairly quick to flow er from seed. H k lovely balsam , fragrant pinks, the- graceful scabiosa, the hedge-form ing four o’ clocks, th e colorful nasturtium s and petunias are next in line. L ater com e the tall cosmos, the beloved zin nias and th e m arigolds. M ost annuals are so easy to grow th at even children can raise them successfully. Special favorites for children’s gardens and those of som e grow nups are feathered celosia, the oddly interesting cockscomb, and th e gay woclflower.O ne secret of grow ing near-perfect annuals is to use good seed and sow it thinly, h i outdoor slanting do no t sow deeply b u t cover the seeds firm ly so that they w ill m ake im m ediate contact w ith w arm m oist soil for speedy germ ination. W hen th e seedlings appear, thin the plants so that the rem aining ones w ill have plenty of space to spread and m ature.M ost annual flowers are n o t particula r about the kind of soil they grow in b u t they do like plenty of sunshin and air. M ost annuals do not thriv in shadjr places. In order to get th e m ost bloom fro annual flowers ail through th e seasc: they need a certain am ount of atten tion. Petunia plants som etim es grot lanky and crow d th eir neighbors. Cu sprays of blossoms freely and arrang them for indoor enjoym ent. The plant w ill recover quickly and bloom bette than ever. Snip off the fading bios som s of zinnia, m arigold, cosmos, an; other annuals. If left to go to seed they rob th e plants of strength to de velop new flowers.

Hoeing the surface soil in vegetable or flow er garden no t only destroys sprouting weed seeds; it actually prevents their germ ination.

Whal Yoo CannotjBoild Yoor Life Upon Rev W alter G- laeohonr. H iddenlte. N. C. What you cannot bniid your life upon you had better let alone Watcb your habits and do. not let them wreck you. Guard your thoughts, vonr tongue, Aour deeds and acts of life You can’t build yonr life noon disobedience to God and His holy word. You can’t build upon falsehood and decep tion. Yon can’t quild upon idle, ness ann laziness. You can’t build upon error and'false doctrines, vain efforts and mere hops Neither can you build your life upon money, or the material things of this world. You can’t build up on pleasure, worldliness, popular, ity and earthly fame and gtorv. It will soon fade and pass away. You can't build your life upon educa tion. nor some mere profession, or avocation, or position in the busi ness world. You cannot build your life upon your good works, if God is not with you and in you. Yon cannot build npon unsound principles, er npon low aims and worthless purposes. Watch the foundation on which yon build and watch yaur build ing material If you would build a great and sublime life yoii must build upon the Christian religion. You must build npon truth, npon the Holy Bible, upon prayer and the love and grace of God.' Yon certainlv can’t build a great life npon ctbeism, modernism an d forms and types of religion. You cannot bnild yonr life upon tbe pravers of others if you do not pray yourself. You cannot build upon the lives of vour ancestors, even though thev may have been saints Thi9 is indeed a good hack, ground, but you must build for yourself Start on the right foun dation. use good material and do good work You are your own buildet, by the grace of God, and it is np to you as to what youi life is and shall he. Remember it you fail to build a good, great, noble and sublime life yeu are cheating and defeating yourself Mnltitndes of people cheat themselves out of the best tlrngs of life, and perhaps wonder what is w ong and why they don’t make of life a success You can. not build upon the davit's founda tion. nor out of his material, and build great and bnild for heaven.

MeroneyfS letterin The Davie Record and have been moved since I first found out a- bout the movement of legalized liquor in Davie County. About six of seven years ago visited a friend out in the country from Elkin and there m et a poli tical worker that has spent the better part of his life in politics, although, he has never held office so far as I know. H e was a congenial companion and I enjoyed this visit immen sely, and after we had exchanged so many thoughts on so many questions and I had found out that he had canvassed thoroughly every County in the State and had made so many individual con tacts I was amazed at what he knew about the people and citi zens of Davie County. I am like Mr. Meroney. I have spent the most of my life smce 22 years of age away from Davie County.' only coming back a few years ago and have always took a delight and had great satisfaction in boosting my neighbors and friends and citizens of Davie Coun ty. W hen our visit was drawing to a dose, I asked this gentleman this question, “After you have visited and worked all 100 Coun ties of the State and made your personal contacts in every one, how do you think the citizens of Davie County compare with the dtizens of other Counties in the State? My reason for asking this question is based on die fact that there are no large industrial in terests in Davie County t h a t would require large numbers of people from other places or from foreign countries to supply the de mand for labor. W hat we do havei we can get an abundance of labor from around local farms and the majority still live in the country and does not come in contact with a class of labor that would have an influence for a way of life foreign to our Davie interest.” His answer was immediately and positive, this was his simple an swer, “There is only one County in the State whose citizenship would rate higher than Davie County and that is Robinson.” This was my first thought when read the first information con cerning a liquor store in Davie County. I knew what I thought and felt like what I knew a gentle m an would think about the Coun ty and his confidence in the boost ing that I had given Davie Coun ty’s m en and women, bovs and girls. I am surprised and feel humilated that any attempt in this direction has even been fostered in the minds of our men and women of Davie County, and can not believe that there are but a few that would consider such a movement in our community. I realize as much as anyone that there is a lot of liquor found in Davie County, but when a colored m an sneeks into a back door of a residence, goes in a house at d .rk for some unknown motive, gets away and the officer can find him, I cannot under stand why the officers can’t find the liquor that is stored for selling in the Country and peddled on the Streets as some people sup pose it is. Very truly yours, R. L. LOWERY. Administrator’s Notice. H aving qualified as adm inistrator of the estate of John L.

Look at their glorious greens and yel lows at the market or in the gardens, and think how wonderful it would be to have at least a reasonable facsim ile at the dinner table! The secret is in their care and preparation. Wash and refrigerate them upon arrival, in the kitchen. Then, do take care when you cook them . . . prepare just to doneness and you will save their crispness and color, and, of course, their nu tritive values. Use interesting methods of prep aration to bring out their fullest del icate flavors. Make them into cro quettes, toss them into a casserole or a salad, but do keep them looking like vegetables! Your own pleasure and that of your family will well repay your efforts. 'Baked Vegetable-Nut Croquettes.

Rising Tide of Divorce Alarms Nation’s Leaders TS THE family unit in the Home * Towns of America on the way out? The answer to this question has economists, government and busi ness leaders, and religious leaders here in a state of alarm, as well it might. For the family unit, bound together by ties of love, by religion, by patriotism and the pride of com munity and country, has been and still is the foundation and backbone upon which we have built this re public. And family units are break ing up at an alarming rate. Look about you in your own com munity. You will find that, on the average, one out of four marriages are ending up in the divorce courts, and the trend is upward. In 1946, for instance, there were more than 2,300,000 marriages and more than 600,000 divorces, or a ra tio of 26.1 per cent. While the per centage of divorce to marriage gen erally has been on the upgrade steadily since 1887, government fig ures reveal today that the impact of the disruptive forces threatening the solidarity of American family life is greater in times of high income and consumer spending than in peri ods of low income. In the depression years of 1921 -and 1922 following World War I, di vorces numbered 159,580 and 148,815 respectively. In the lush years of 1938 and 1939, divorces jumped to 195,939 and 201,468 per year. Dur ing the depression years of 1932 and 1933 the divorce rate dropped to 160,- 338 for 1932 and 165,000 for 1933. However, in the prosperous era starting in 1940, divorces skyrocket ed to 264,000, and the number of divorces and ratio to marriages have been increasing each year to the rec ord high' in 1946. Debts and Divorces Economists point to the fact that consumer spending and a spurt in individual debt totaling some six bil lion dollars were factors in the in crease of divorces last year. They also point ouf that the trend of per sonal debt is in marked contrast to the -wartime pattern, which shows that in the three yeags following Pearl Harbor personal debts of the people were reduced by 6 % billion dollars both by voluntary payments and as a result of credit restrictions. So the total individual debt declined from 39.4 billion dollars at the end pf 1941 to 32.7 billions at the end of 1944. The reverse started in 1945 with a debt gain of one billion dol lars for the year and picked up mo mentum during 1946 so that at the end of the year the debt increase totaled 6 % billion, or equaling the reduction of the three war years. Leaders In and out of government and in the religious life of. all churches are alarmed over die ap parent decadence In American home life. They declare the present day situation has profound implications to the nation in the political, economic and moral spheres, in view of the fact tha^ the whole structure of American industry and government rests on the foundation of serving the needs of the American family, children as well as parents. In view of the apparent relation of divorce to economic depression and well being, and the apparent con clusion that money management in the home is one of the causes of di vorce, leaders here profess to see in the constant striving for higher in come, for easier and higher living standards, a cause for the break ing down of moral fibre And the breeding ground for selfishness, greed, intolerance and other indica tions of moral turpitude which even tually lead into the divorce courts. Chtirch leaders, too, point out that in time of great prosperity there is a falling off in religious fervor and a rise in times of stress. Loss of Confidence Economists and psychologists point to a growing indifference and lack of reverence for our traditional institutions, even for government it self—a lack of confidence and secu rity in our business, industrial, la bor and governmental leadership— and they declare that there is a vital need for a re-instillation of the ideals, the traditions and the funda mentals of our American democracy, a rehabilitation of the minds and hearts of our people in the constitu tion, the bill of rights, the Declara tion of Independence.They insist that there must be a routing out of the influence of Com munistic teachings both from the religious and economic standpoint and, at the same time, there must also be the eradication of the con centration of capitalistic power and monopoly, which is equally as evil from an economic standpoint. These- are all factors which lead ers here declare have a bearing, along with other influences, upon the rift in the solidarity of Aiherican family life. Without the family unit there can be no strong nation, no united America.

D GREEK SITUATION SERIOUS WASHINGTON.—Impartial diplo mats returning from th£ Near East report that the American dilemma in Greece is even more serious than ' the long-faced story which General Marshall gave to congress. They report: * 1. That the Greek countryside i is now almost wholly in the i hands of Greek guerrillas, a sit- ; uation almost as bad as when I the Germans held the towns and : the Greek guerrillas ruled the countryside. 2. That half a million extra people have fled to Athens to escape guerrilla fighting. 3. As a result of the veritable civil war and the inflmt into the cities, the fields have not been cultivated nor crops collected. 4. If British troops were with* . drawn, the government of King : George n would fall almost ' overnight. Unquestionably Communist agents from Yugoslavia and Albania have been pouring men into Macedonia and to some extent into Greece prop er; so that if the British army were withdrawn, the risk of a Communist government in Greece is considerable. However, it also remains a basic fact that the overwhelming majority of the Greek people—probably 70 per cent—are conservative, home- loving farmers who want to be left alone by both extremes. Essential ly they are individualists and demo crats—bitter enemies of Commu nism, Furthermore one out of every eight Greeks has been in the United States or has relatives here. Their real ties are much more with the United States than with Russia or England.« • * VETS’ HOUSING CRACKDOWN Home builders who have been de fying federal regulations on veterans’ housing had better start consult ing their lawyers. Certain builders in the Denver and Cleveland areas are being haled into court to show why they have failed to file sales reports on housing be gun before controls were lifted last Becember 24. This housing, number ing more than 350,000 units, still is affected by price controls and vet erans’ priorities. Furthermore,’ the Denver and Cleveland cases are only curtain raisers to a nationwide crackdown on builders. OPA compliance officers have evidence that there have been widespread violations, with the result that many vets have- been gypped.* • * FREIGHT CAR SHORTAGE The current tragic tie-up of the nation’s economy because of the freight car shortage might have been saved if the railroads had tak en the advice of Washington experts. It was never published at the time, but two years before the war J. Leonard Replogle, former Re publican national committeeman from Florida and expert on the Ba ruch board during the last wax, gave the railroads a blunt prediction of things to come. Testifying before the Stettinius board on national resources necessary for the impending war, Replo gle warned that the country would need 400,000 new freight cars to han- .dle wartime economy. He told the board that many of the cars now in use were old and would not bear under the wear and tear of war. He urged a government loan to finance 400,000 new cars. This brought loud and vigorous protests from the American Railway association. Their spokesman, the late J. J. Pelley1 replied that the rail-' roads were in good shape and needed no new cars. Nothing was done. Result: Critical steel had to be di verted from building freight cars during the war.* • * TRUMAN MEETS BUREAUCRATS There has been no official an nouncement about it, but President Truman has quietly started a unique practice. He has been visiting dif ferent government departments te meet their staffs and discuss vari ous problems with the personnel. He is the first president in many years to do this. Truman started the idea when he told Secretary of the Interior “Cap” j Krug that he would like to come to lunch at the interior department. De lighted, Ksug arranged a small, informal lunch with 15 key interior department officials present. Many of them had been in government service 20 years* but never had seen, much less talked to, a president. They are the men who keep the wheels of government running no matter who is elected.* 4 • CAPITAL CHAFF Harold Stassen is expecting big things from his present two-month globe-girdling tour. He hopes to get enough ammunition from talks with Stalin, Attlee and other European leaders to make plenty of political hay for his next fall’s speaking tour when the GOP '48 sweetpstakes hit the home stretch. . . . Coi. Jay Cooke, Philadelphia banker and for mer GOP chairman who is accom panying Stassen to Europe, wants to be secretary of the treasury if and when Stassen is elected. MIRACLE VILLAGE IN PATH OF ETNA LAVA . . . Erupting Mt. Etna and streams of lava rolling down its sides form an imposing backdrop for the little village of Passo Pisclardo directly in the path of the Sicily flaming lava. A number of new craters belching flaming lava appeared on volcanic Mt. Etna, but wbat the Sicilian peasants regard as a miracle, Passo Pisciardo and other hamlets at the foot of the volcano have not yet been engulfed by the river of lava. JUMPS TO RECORD . . . Irv Mondschein, New York university, is shown establishing a new record in the high jump event at the 26th annual IC-JA indoor championship held In Madison Square Garden, New York City. The champion cleared the bar at 6 feet, VA inches. FOOD FOR THE WORLD . . . Itsy, Bitsy and Betsy huddle together in a basket as their mother watches over them. Triplets are not an everyday occurrence in the sheep world—in fact, rather rare. This San Antonio, Tex., mother is doing her part to raise food for the starving people of the world, as well as wool to help keep them warm next winter. Present indications are that every ounce of wool that can be produced will be needed next winter. LOST ON HIS WALK...As bedtime approaches Matt Greer, 4, watches sleepily from his desk perch as Lt. Conrad Walter records his story at Bergen street station, Brooklyn. Matt went for a walk with an other “guy” and was found wandering in the streets by police. Soon after the photograph was taken Matt’s mother located him at the police station and took him home. The "guy” Matt started walking with ran off with his overshoes. BOBBY SOXERS . . .

Sen. William F. Knowland (Rep., Calif.), claims to be winning sup port in his fight for a budget amendment to earmark three bil lion dollars for public debt reduc tion before any reduction is made in income taxes. We had our annual sleigh ride back home the other day, and noth ing that ever happened in “Pickwick Papers” was much funnier. . . . We hauled out the cutter which we bought at the Milford church auction last spring and got a horse, Queenie, from Tex Neuen’s stables. . . . Not having harnessed a critter in years, we must have gone wrong some where, for,/ white zooming along Cherry street nicely the sleigh hit a dry spot on the road and Queenie went ,right out from between the shafts. . . . There we were in the cutter, with the horse galloping 300 yards away! The business of catch ing, the mare amused the townfolk no end. . . . Then we had to phone for Tex to scurry over with some haywire and install her ,between the shafts on a permanent basis. (We are going to get even with the fellow who put “Oh, What Fun It Is to Ride in a One-Hoss Open Sleigh” on his Victrola and opened the window as we got underway again.)

The crime was committed on Oct. 22, 1946. Campbell entered t h e Kim brough home by a window on a screened-in porch.

Liquor Promotes Trime Last Tuesday afternoon I listen ed to the trial of Oscar Douglas, who was being charged with the raping of Mrs. Hubert Foster. I heard part of the evidence, the verdict of guilt, and the sentence of death. In presenting the evidence a- gainst Oscar Douglas, it was stated that he went to a filling station at or near Greasy Corner, bought a piut of Iiquorr paying $3 for it, drank it, then went to the home of Hubert Foster and committed the crime of rape. As I sat and heard the case I thought within mv heart, “This Negro is guilty, but he is not the only guilty one in this crime.” The man who sold Oscar Douglas that pint of liquor, is guilty of this crime. The man who made that pint of liquor is a party to this crime. Society that tolerates or winks at the liquor business a- mong us, shares its guilt of this crime. “W oe unto him that giv- eth his neighbor drink, that put- teth thy bottle to him, and mak- est him drunken also, that tbou mayest look on their nakedness.” REV. J. P. DAVIS. Pastor Mocksville Baptist Church. Against Liqa >r Stores Cana, N. C., Mar. 18. Editor Davle Record:—W e are hearing a lot said about getting a liquor store in our county. As citizens of Davie County we ought to be interested in the wel fare of the State and Countv, and try to make them Christianized places that our children and grand children might be brought up in a wav that would be pleasing in the sight of God. W e read in Prov. 29:2, that when the righteous are in author ity the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule the people mourn. They say that a liquor store in Mocksville would bring in so much revenue. Do we value the revenue from liquor more than we do the human souls that would be destroyed by its use? 1st Timothy, 6:9. God says the love of money is the root of all evil. It seems like people are ^iore willing to sacrifice for mon ey than for the salvation of hum an souls. As I was approaehing a house one day, the husband and father was throwing the kitchen utensils into the yard, breaking them in pieces, while under the influence of liquor. Just a few days ago a man said to me, "W e are going to have a liquor store in Mocksville.” I replied that there would not be one there if I could help it. His brother said, 'J Y o are not going to work against us, are you?” My reply was, “No, I am not working against anyone, but just trying to help everyone.” May each one of us rise and stand against this evil, and try to make our County and State a better place to live in, for my heart’s desire and prayer to God is that our people might be saved.

Hoebi Ihe surface soil in vegetable or flow er garden no t only ccsiroys sprouting wee seeds; it actually prevents their germ ination. A s soon as the seedlings brea through in the garden row s so th a t they can easily be seen, it is tim e i o begi- stirring th e soil betw een row s and as close to th e plan's as possible w ithou disturbing them . E ither a k?.nd hoe o r* - ^ w heel hoe is an excellent tool.If it rains a few days after the first] cultivation, stir th e surface soil again as soon as it is dry enough, b u t do not w ait longer than a w eek before cultivating a second time,—rain or no rain,—unless the ground is too w e; to w ork.W eeds w ithin the row w ill probably have to be rem oved by hand while- the plants are sniaii. Som e gardeners iind an old kitchen knife a handy helper. Or, a hand w aeder is a convenient tool. As plants grow larger, they usu ally dom inate so that w eeds in th e row do not prove troublesom e. Onions are one exception; the spear-like leaves do not shade the ground enough to keep down die husky weeds. For the good of the vegetables and flowers and for the sake of a garden’ appearance, it is im portant to cultivat all through the gardening season. Be sides keeping ahead of tire weeds, till ing th e surface soil slightly f'-nr.s ; m ulch to prevent evaporation of m ob ture. I t is particularly essential to Sti the soil around plants as soon as so; and plants are dry enough after ever; rain. C are should be taken, how evei no t to dig so deeply n ear th e plant as to injure the roots. A nother reason for cultivating Ifc garden all sum m er is Ciat stirring til soil allow s air to enter. N ext to m ois ture, ventilation is one of the mos valuable m eans of releasing soil foo to grow ing plants.

Coming quickly into bloom from seed sow n each year, they are th e easiest of all flowers to grow anc’ bring a w ide range" of vivacious color for a long period. Poppy and bachelor button are tw o of the earliest. The low -grow ing edgers sw eet alyssum and candytuft, are also fairly quick to flow er from seed. Tht lovely balsam , fragrant pinks, tlie^- graceful scabiosa, the hedge-form ing four o’ clocks, the colorful nasturtium s and petunias are next in line. L atercom e th e tall cosmos, th e beloved zinnias and th e m arigolds. M ost annuals are so easy to grow that even children can raise them successfully. Special favorites for children’s gardens and those of som e grow nups are feathered celosia, th e oddly interesting cockscomb, and th e gay woolflower.O ne secret of grow ing near-perfect annuals is to use good seed and sow it thinly, In outdoor planting do no t sow deeply b u t cover" the seeds firm ly so th a t they w ill m ake im m ediate contact w ith w arm m oist soil for speedy germ ination. Vfhen th e seedlings appear, thin the plants so th a t the rem aining ones w ill have plenty of space to spread and m ature.M ost annual flowers are n o t particula r about the kind of soil they grow in b u t they do like plenty of sunshin- and air. M ost annuals do not thriv in shady places. In order to get the m ost bloom fro! annual flowers all through th e seasci they need a certain am ount of atten tion. P etunia plants som etim es grot lanky and crow d th eir neighbors. Cu sprays of blossoms freely and arrang them for indoor enjoym ent. The plant w ill recover quickly and bloom bette than ever. Snip off th e fading bios som s of zinnia, m arigold, cosmos, another annuals. If left to go to see; they ro b th e plants of strength to de velop new flow ers."'K eep the edgin. annuals, such as sw eet alyssum am candytuft, from looking frow sy by clipping off th e tops w ith shears after they have bloom ed. They w ill rew ard you by flowering again an d looking pretty for a long season. U n c l e S a m S a y s CU® & One of the fine old -American customs is to begin a new year with a lot of resolutions.

Y ou’re being a better, wiser American to make a solemn resolution to strengthen the future security of yourself gnd family. U n c l e S a m S a y s r ^ i .

A nd ! c a u se for jub ilatio n . The Mass Production Way Henry Ford II, whose grandfather practiced so well the mechanics of good economy and who dealt fairly and well with the mass output sys tem, recently started what may be come a trend in the-.automobile in dustry. In making the first postwar price reduction on cars, Mr. Ford actually gave the equivalent of a wage boost to all Americans who buy Fords, and if other car manufacturers follow, it will mean a boost to all who buy automobiles. And as mass production of automobiles comes to peak, still lower prices will surely follow. While labor leaders thought this a step in the right direction, some of them quickly stated that “price cut ting” would have no effect upon their plans for wage drives. Neither in- j dustry nor labor look forward to ex- • tensive price cutting, particularly without greater production, nor should either expect to gain from continued wage drives—without bet ter production. The key to., the wage-price balance is: more output. Bigger Pie One manufacturer has advertised this balance thus: “If we want a bigger cut out of the income pie ei ther as management or labor, the best way for all concerned is to bake a bigger pie.” He continued, “You can’t cut bigger pieces out of a smaller pie. You can’t continue to raise wages, anywhere, out of shrinking production.” That is right. In an industrial democracy like ours, we have a high standard of living largely because our produc tion of goods has been brought into line with the lowest possible consum er prices. Volume production, ev- ery time, means greater value to the consumer at lower prices. It also means more to those who in vested the capital that bought the tools. And it means more to labor that builds the product. Keep a Balance These thoughts may explain why not all of labor has been willing to get behind the banner that “indus try can afford a 25% general wage increase without raising prices.” The American Federation of Labor has reported its findings that in 1946 an 1814c wage increase brought in creases in living costs of equal amount. The balance of wages and prices is just that close in our eco nomic structure. N ow is th e tim e for ea ch A m eric a n to u n d e rsta n d , along w ith M rs.

We cannot hope to maintain for long this free America which we love, unless we seek long range cooperation and understanding, rather than short-sighted group advantages which in the end are destructive to all. H an n o n y During the recent months of in dustrial strife and popular confu sion, current events have been al most as common a topic of conver sation as the weather. Wherever people congregate, somebody opens the subject of “What’s the world coming to, anyhow?” It’s a whole some condition. The common sense of Tom, Dick and Harry has saved Riis nation from many a bad spill. Recently an old man (slightly deal) sat near me on the train. With him was a teen-age girl, a grand-daughter perhaps. They had divided a newspaper between them. Granddad spoke first.. “There’s nothing wrong with this country if everybody would get together and do the right thing,” he observed. The girl looked at him, shifted her gum and replied, “Many an honest heart beats beneath a wooden head.”Not a Dreamer. Maybe she lacked respect for her elders but the young woman was practical. People in a country this large don’t get together. Moreover they don’t do the right thing unless they know what it is, and their edu cation in economic matters has been sadly neglected. Unless that very situation is corrected before long, our people will trail the British into the wilderness of Collectivism. I believe in specialization but I think no specialty should be so nar row as to exclude good citizenship. I believe in versatility, but how can any collection of miscellaneous knowledge be complete without some facts about how men became free to pursue knowledge and get understanding? No people can re main free long after Rieir youth cease to appreciate their sacred lib erties. Young Ideas. Within the last 12 months, I have been privileged to talk with the stu dents of a great many high schools and colleges in widely scattered states. I have discussed private en terprise and state socialism with th e m , and I c a n te stify th a t m o st of them seem to consider private enterprise a failure. Some of them have been extremely well coached to debate against it. Questioning them sympathetical ly, I find that very few of the stu dents I meet have a clear idea about what private enterprise is. They consider it a system that gives spe cial advantages to rich men and big corporations. They point out that our system has not maintained full employment, has not prevented al ternate depressions and booms, and has never equalized living stand ards. Look to Politics. It is no surprise that studious youngsters are able to pick the ob vious flaws in any system, but here is a surprise: Almost without ex ception Riese young people seem to think all the imperfections of Amer ica’s present system can be correct ed by government management. With the scandalous exhibitions of incompetence from WFA to the OPA, how can anybody expect poli tics to help? Harmony is really needed in American industry, and American government, but it will be found only on a plane of better knowledge. Text books must be', prepared and instructors trained to teach Amer icanism if human freedom, individ ual opportunity and intellectual lib erty are to continue. When enough of us know the truth we can do the right thing whether we can actu ally get together or not.
