T n r n i n g L ig h t s O n “ S i s t e r ” P e r k i n s . (From The Yellow Jack et.) A N ew Y ork City new spaper ex. p e rt seem s greatly puffed up around the gills because, bo he says, Sister Frances Perkins, S ecretary of La­ bor undef FD Jt’s “ M ore Abundant Lie” adm inistration, isn’t w hat she seem s to be Says this serious scribe, referring to Sister Secretary Perkins, who if affectionately known abroad as “tht friend of ail alias,” that he hat •‘heard repeatedly that she is of Russian - Jewess origin.” Says h« furthermore that she’s not a “ Per kins” at all, but that she first saw the light of life as “Rachel Lazan ski,” etc. The affair grieved' the generous gentleman to such an extent that he up and wrote Sister Perkins to in­ quire about her nationality, name and even the location of her birth. To which Sister Perkins promptly retorted: “I was born in Boston, April IOi 1882, daughter of Fredk. W. and Susan Perkins. My parents were both native-born citizens of England and Scotch descent. They and their forebears were Protestant Chris­ tians.' My father’s name was never Lazanski; he was born and died Fredk. W. Perkins. I was not know n as Rachel Lazanski,” etc., then Sist-. er Perkins added: “If I were a Jew, I would be proud to acknowledge^.” Mebbe the brother is unduly peev­ ed because Sister Perkins’ staff ap­ pears to be almost all-Jewish, but here’s a point that puzzles the hon­ est hombre still.. The records’ df; ^tl^T>n^BostoikslmvL-thatr^(4 S ^ cord is found at the Boston Birtb Registry of the birth of Frances Perkins on April 10,1882, or during the year specified.” We think we can comprehend,- with our comprehending complex t- bout how Sister Perkins has got all mommixed up this way. Mebbe she eve# those days had the gift of vision, mebbe she saw ahead (which she hasn’t seemed able to- do since joing FDR’s cabinet) and being as she is still .whom she ain’t calling herself “Perkins” though the mar­ riage records show that she’s a Miss­ us Paul Caldwell Wilson, and haB been since the fateful September 26. 1913, she just decided to. be a Per­ kins and perk rather thUn a Lazan- ski and laze. Anv howso-ever. Sister Perkins has tried faithfully to make up -for any apparent lack of being born a foreigner. -Sbe has about filled her perch with alien-named lads and lass­ es. The official Congressional Direc­ tory scientillates with such names under her bureau as her chief of high staff: Jurkowitz, McGradyi Moynihan, Altmeyer, Nyzanski, Mac- Cormack. Zabel, Shaughnessy, Nien- burg, O’Brien and the like. And, if anybody gets the erron­ eous opinion that Sister Perkins ever fails to show preference, for foreign­ ers as against "native-born” Ameri­ cans, just look how she and her big Immigration Bow wow boss. Mac- Cormack, have kept in the United States millions of unnaturalized, il­ legally-admitted aliens, the mean­ while' honeat-to-goodness American workershave to beg, borrow or go without in the mere matter of mak­ ing a living. Sister Perkins may—or may not— be a Madame Lazanski, but what- e/er she is or isn’t ain’t, she ^ surely is entitled 10 her affectionate recog­ nition as “the faithful friend of all foreigners.” / H a r r a h F o r T a x - E a t e r s In San Francisco a . 75 -year-nld woman, weighing but 90 pounds, on relief for five years, was evicted from the only home she has known tor twenty-nine years, because she did not have enough money to pay a paving assessment.

Some laudable steps have been 'aken in different states to eradicate highway signs which are made |o appear ridiculous by their fiagrafat errors in spelling, grammar, ati'd •vording. The only signs affected by these steps were signs posted- the highway commissions. One sij^p specially which created much com meut all over the country was' tpe •SLOW'MEN W ORKING” sign; A simple mark of punctuation might have saved much of the talk' There are still a great many sighs •ilong all highways over which .tjpfr highway commission has no cdS trol, but which would leaveamu^fc more favorable impression WitjJi many of the readrrs if they corrected. \ We probably should refrain frofn any.criticism of anyone’s grammar, at least until our own is brushed tfp considerably, but we have a few pet aversions which stare us in tljg face at almost every turn which afe such simple and noticeable errors that there is little excuse for them; It is hard for us to ^understand why so many people have so much trouble with the singular and plural of certain words. So often we res^d the sign, "ROOMS FOR TOUR 1ST.” If the good people w lp stick this sign in front of theiit homes have accomodations for only one tourist as the sign impli%} th^3| could impress the. better patriini|i| article A in front of the last word in the sign.. One that sounds even worse often is seen, and is this: TOURIST ACCO MMODATED’ ’ Guest is another word which gives people the same difficulty In forming the plural, it seems. We repeat that we can not understand why so many people can not affix an S to these simple words when they have been taught to form the plural by adding that letter to most other words.—Statesville Recoi d. F r e a k i s h W e a t h e r . Wilkes Journal. When conversation dulls one un­ usually talks about the weather. When editorial matter comes hard an editor should have the same privilege but we propose to go farther on the easy road and quote what someone else writes about the popular subi ject. Here is an interesting angle presented by the Reidsville Review: “There are a lot of people who make it a rule to keep track of the weather news for the entire country,; and, just now they are agreed that s freakishness is past understand-: ing. Weather sharps had predicted that following the"coldest winter in generation we would experience a hot jspring and summer. But in. many sections there wasn’t anyi springlike_weather of note, while in. other localities actual suffering from lack of moisture and unusua Iy high; temperatures are reported. Older residents are agreed that not within; their lifetime can they recall as much, “freak weather” as this country has. experienced in ^the past few years- It looks like the weather man has, been trying to see how many differ­ ent brands of weather he could crowd; into a brief twelve months. And, every section has had a taste of most every variety of it, from 40 below to, 100 above, and from the dust storm and drouth to windstorm and dis­ astrous floods. But with all of it. Americans go right ahead* taking; what comes and making the best of. it, not because that is the best thing! to do but because it’s the only thingj to’do. For even 'freak weather’ can-, not dwarf the optimism of the. aver­ age American.” " However, the weather is something we do not intend to criticize because like Mark Twain once said, nothing is ever done about it.”. If all the noise of honking horns should stop at once, it- might wake some of up from our noonday nap. U s u a l F a r c e S ta g e d A l R a le ig h . An admission by Clay county e'ection officials that, for the past 15 years, it has been common practice ‘ that the head of the family cast the vote for all members of his. immedi ate family” was one of the astound­ ing admissions made at Raleigh be­ fore the State Board of Elections which met to consider alleged irregu Iirities in the Democratic primary of July 4, but of course as the courts have already decidpd you cannot “go behind the returns” the whole thing amounted to a roaring farce. The board read reports of inves­ tigations it had ordered in seven counties; Dr. Ralph W. McDonald defeated candidate for the Demo­ c r a t ic gubernatorial nomination, whose protests were largely respon­ sible for the probes, was present at the session. Members of the Clay county board of elections admitted: “That Hayesville precinct was the only precinct (of five in the county) that provided regular voting booths for-voters*** but rooms were pro­ vided where voters could mark their ballots in secret if they so desired. “That all precincts were furnished with proper ballot boxes except Tus quittee and a stout paper box was used at this precinct.” State elections officials termed ‘‘distinctly not funny” a “joke” which occurred in the second pri­ mary election in Surry county, and Jecommsnded the dismissal of two Vlount Airy pr cinct officials said to irresponsible for the “jest.”.- i ;Ih e Surry electionT)oard said, two attention from a “ McDonald Watchv er,” had hidden 19 ballots "as a joke” while the votes were being counted. The workers actually intended to count the ballots, and “laughed” when the protest was made, the re­ port said. .. Adrian Mitchell, Republican mem­ ber of the state board, pointed out t h a t a joke played sometimes des­ troys confidence as much as- actual dishonesty." The Surry board also was asked, to “repiy promptly” as to whether it ever met to canvaBS the county’s vote. Some members of the state board said they were informed B Surry official was in Florida when the official count was to have taken place. I^ie Yancev county board was in­ structed-to establish election booths as required by state law. Complaints of alleged irregularities in the absen­ tee voting of Rowan county were dis­ missed by the. board after McDonald withdrew his charges. Cleveland county election officials were ordered to reopen their investi­ gation of alleged irregularities when the board foujid certain specific charges brought by McDonald had not been probed. Buncombe officials reported some notaries public and justices of peace had neglected to file lists of persons who had appeared before them with absentee ballots, but said there were no other violations of the election laws in that county. After McDonald had presented wbat he called “ undisputed testi­ mony” that 40 per cent of the persons Who voted absentee ballets in For­ syth did not leave thecounty on elec­ tion day and “practically all of "the absentee ballots in Forsyth wera not sworn to.” the board declared “in­ valid” 182 ballots which C. W. Long, Winston-Salem notary, is alleged to have signed without obtaining oathB from applicants.. Dr. McDonald told the board he did not expect to see the gubernatorial vote upset, but that the “illegally cast absenteevotes could and :very probably would upset the race for the Senate in Forsyth county. Ratcliff led Hine by 113 votes in the primary and it is obvious that, if all the 182 votes held illegal were for Ratcliff, Hine would be the victor if they were thrown out.—Union Re­ publican. According to Judge Wilson War . lick: “If you don’t quit blaming everything.on liquor, you’re going to hurt its reputation.” H a j f A n d H a I f . The new organization calling it ielf the Liberal Democrats of North Carolina is composed of leaders in the recent gubernatorial race made bv Dr. McDonald. It now turns out that In spite of •he rather vague and nebulous statements to the general effect that ihese Liberalswould operate “ with in the Democratic party,’’ it is by no means assured that they will be thus confined. Indeed, i t ' is reported that the organization has only three major objectives: First, purification of the election laws. Second, elimination of the sales tax. Third, re election of Mr. Roose­ velt. . Not a word can be found within the terminology or general environs of these objectives to indicate that the leaders of this movement are tor a moment interested in the elec tion of Mr. Hoey as Governor of North Carolina on the Democratic ticket. As a-matter of fact, Tom BOST states that some of them boldly make the claim that they are “ play ing hands off” in the State election They want Mr. Roosevelt, the Democratic candidate for President, re elected but they propose to do nothing to see Mr. Hoey, they De mocratic candidate for Governor, is elected To be sure, many of these Li beral Dejnocrats, Mrs: Bost further reports, . Will vote for "Roosevelt ''ancf Grissom, the Republican can can didate for Governor. And, in the meantime, when is Dr. McDonald going to congratu­ late Mr. Hoey over his successful race for the nomination?-'Charlottt Observer.

Deputy Miller, who is also keeper of the Davie county bastile, tells us that he had 27 prisoners in the said bastile a few days ago Things were not like this in Davie before the wine and beer parlors were opened. Countv politics doesn’t warm up much. Both democrats and Re publicans are keeping mighty quiet. So far as we have been able to see and learn Tom Blackwelder1 one of the democratic nominees for county commissioner, is the only fellow who is doing any handshaking. Tom is an excellent fellow and is making a good campaign. The other boys will eventually get busy. G r is s o m A t H a r m o n y . Hon. Gilliam Grissom, Republi­ can nominee for Governor of North Carolina, was greeted by about 400 citizens at Harmony Friday alter noon, where he delivered a clean, forceful and concise speech in the Harmony school auditorium. A number of other Republicans of Ire dell county were present and made short addresses. The people in Ire­ dell seem to be well fed up on the the New Deal and when the votes are counted in November there may be some surprises in store for our democratic friends. Thousands of democrats thoughout tne state are disgusted with the Shelby machine ring who have been in the saddle for so long that the memory of man runneth not to the contrary.

Clifton, have returned from Montgomery county, Ind., where they visited their cousin, a cousin of their trreat-grandfather. Noah Broclt on the occasion of celebration of Mr. Brock’s hundredth anniversary. The celrbration took place at his home near Darlington, Ind.. and was a dual affair. Friends in the Darling­ ton and Potato Creek sections, the latter northeast of Darlington, join ed in a celebration with Mr. Brock as honor guest, on Friday—his anni- ersary. Members of the family from many states gathered during the week-end and on Sunday were visitors at the home and guests at a birthday dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Church had the pleasure of attend ing both gatherings.Several hundred attended t h e neighborhood celebration and at the Sunday afternoon assembly a hun­ dred or more relatives attended. At a family gathering two years ago Mr. Church humorously presented Mr. Brock with 98 pennies. The sugge3 tion Jias been followed by others each year since, and this year more than a thousand pennies were presented by various visitors. Itis said , that all are being kept by the honoree, who, once in a while, gets a kick out of counting the accumulated coins. Each year Will Brock formerly of this city, now a candy manufacturer of Chattanoogo. Tenn.. sends the aged cousin a-box of candy, and one reached him again this year while Mr. Churth was in his home. On the morning of Mr. Brock’s- hundredth anniversary he awoke with two troublesome teeth, and, to make himself confortable;for the day with the hundreds of neighbor­ hood visitors, he went to a dentist and had the offending teeth extract­ ed. This was his first extracting ex­ perience. Theelderly veteran was born at Farmington. Davie county, this state August 14. 1836. He fought with the IOth Virginia Calvary, Company B. in the War Between the States. Mr. Brock and two brothers. Ben ; amin and William Brock, enlisted at the beginning of the war with the Virginia Calvary and another broth­ er, Alexander Brock, fought with a Missouri company in the Union army. Noah was wounded by a Yan­ kee bullet in the battle around Fred­ ericksburg. During thereconstruction period, by which time Mr. Brock was mar* ried and a father, Mr. Brock de? cided to setk his fortune in the North and moved to the Darlington neighborhood, where he is still one of the best known and esteemed citi­ zens Mrs. Brock passed away less than a year ago, at the age of 89 years.- Successful in business he has also been active in church affairs in his community for many decades, and the community gathering on his an niversary was sponsored by the Po­ tato Creek Methodist Church. A special guest on this occasion was a close friend of the honoree, Albert W. Booher, aged 90 years, a Union soldier in the Civil War, and a resi­ dent of Darlington. They have been close friends for many years. Mr. Church states that the cente- nairian maintains a keen interest in his native state and county, and re­ lishes reading the news in Tar Heel newspaper—reading without the aid of glasses, in spite of his age! -He uses tobacco in plug form, and de­ clares that he would live "a long time” had he not taken up the habit many, many years ago.—Winston Sentinel. Mr. brock is an unde of Mes- dames Geo. W. and J. L. Sheek, of Mocksville. He has been a subscri­ ber to The Record for the gast quart­ er of a century^ We wish for Mr. Brock many more happy birthday.B. and trusts that his che ving tobacco will never give out, S t r o u d aS m ith .

RANCH b y .SPEARMAN Copyright Frank H. Spearman WNU Service S Y N O P S I S Sleepy Cat, desert town of the South­west, Is celebrating the Fourth of July. Jane Van Tambel, beautiful daughter of Gus Van Tambel, hated owner of Gunlock ranch, ha3 arrived from the Bast for the first time. She watches the Frontier Day celebration in company with Dr. Carpy, crusty, tender-hearted friend of the community. Henry Sawdy of the Circle Dot ranch, tricked In a fake horse race the day before by Dave McCrossen, foreman at Gunlock, plans revenge. He enters Bill Denison, a handsome young Texas wrangler, In the rodeo which McCrossen is favored to win, and lays heavy bets on him. Unknown to the crowd, Denison is a champion horseman McCrossen and the young stranger tie in the various events. McCrossen picks up a hand­kerchief from the ground riding full speed, facing backward. Denison eas­ily follows suit. Denison then drops a cigarette carelessly. Racing down the track full tilt, he picks up the ciga­rette. The verdict goes to Denison when McCrossen refuses to attempt the stunt. Entreated by the crowd, Deni­son agrees to perform another trick. Jane Van Tambel is asked for her bracelet and throws it on the track. Just as Denison rides to pick It up a yell from Barney Rebstock, a Mc- Crossen henchman, scares the pony, nearly costing the rider his life. Gun play is prevented by the inter­ vention of Dr. Carpy.

Speeches, it explained by the chairm an to presided, might provoke an- y discussion and prevent the har- imv it sought. ifith none but the Jackson Iieu- nants permitted to talk, the nom- ation of Van Buren becam e a -,pie matter. In fact, he w as ■med on a single ballot. Ihe embarrassing part to Jack- - before the vote was cast w as -t no delegates were in attend­ ee from Alabama, Illinois, South irolina or Tennessee, the latter, i everyone knows, being his •”ie state. So when Tennessee was found to : absent, because of the split in • party inimical to Van Buren, ctson’s lieutenants went into the eets of Baltimore and looked ound. They seized the first ennessean they encountered, ought him into the convention d had him cast 15 votes in be­ lt of Tennessee.

So when the returns w ere in, fol- wtg the 1860 conventions, Lin- In and Hannibal Hamlin w as the epublican ticket; Douglas and H. • Johnson represented the North- Democrats; John C.

Eleven days are taken from September, and begin^ I, 2, 14, 15, etc. Be not astonished, nor look with concern, Dear Reader, at such a deduction of days, nor regret as for the loss of so much time, but take this for your consola­ tion, that your expenses will perhaps appear lighter, and your mind be more at ease. And what an indulgence is here for those who love their pillows, to lie down in peace on the sec­ ond of this month, and not perhaps awake .or be disturbed till the fourteenth, in the morning.And, Reader, this is not to hasten the pay­ment of debts, freedom of apprentices or serv­ants, or the coming to age of minors; but the number of natural days in all agreements are to be fulfilled. AU Church Holidays and Couits are to be on the same nominal days, and so deemed to be held eleven days later. Now, Reader, since *tis likely you may never have such another year nor such another almanac, I would advise you to improve the one for your own sake, and I recommend the other for the sake of your friend.

It will interest, also, all Americans th a t were sent abroad in that famous fight, with which Arthur Brtobane we had nothing to do except lose our men and our money. American soldiers, who liked the Canadian and Australian troops better than any others they met, according to statements made by many, testify to the courage with which the colonial Englishmen fought at Vimy Ridge and else­ where. Statistics of the war show that, on the side of the allies, the per­ centage of death was higher among the Canadians than among any oth­ er troops involved, excepting the French themselves, who fought at their own frontiers to defend their own homes. Sixty thousand Canadians lie bur­ ied, each one an -“unknown sol­ dier,” around that great monument. The king of England, after a long and really admirable speech of ap­ preciation, lowered the flags that hid the monument which, as he said, will forever honor the cour­ age of the Canadians that fought and that lie dead and buried. The war that killed so many mil­ lions, blowing them to pieces, leav­ ing them to die shattered and agon­ izing on the battlefield; suffocating, making them insane with the poi­ son gas just coming into fashion, seemed between 1914 and 1918 as horrible as any war could b e.. But the civil war, the worst, most savage, pitiless and ferocious of all wars, now going on in Spain, makes the big war comparatively mild. Lord Rothermere’s London Daily Mail eclipses in the horror of one published statement all stories of horror in the war and goes beyond anything that could possibly be be­ lieved. . When the French newspaper, the Friend of the People, described fighters for Madrid’s radical gov­ ernment digging up and throwing from their graves the bodies of Catholic nuns, that horror seems beyond belief. But Lord Rothermere’s newspa­ per prints the statement that other nuns ALIVE were seized—three of them—their clothing saturated with gasoline, and burned to death. The Daily Mail also quotes the. statement that in the city of Barce­ lona, when the radical forces had conquered the rebellious insurgent inhabitants, “any Catholic priest in the city was butchered without mer­ cy.” Russia is, according to reliable reports, in constant communication with the Madrid-government by ra­dio. Newspapers in England, and the more conservative newspapers in France, declare that Russia, in ad­ dition to advising Madrid concern­ ing the immediate civil war and helping the Spanish government by the purchase of Spanish bonds, is also sending by radio detailed in­ formation as to the organization in Spain of a “Soviet government” similar to that existing in Russia. France, thanks to the existing al­ liance with Russia — resented by many of the old-fashioned French­ men, who ask, “Is Stalin the real ruler of France?”—is under pres­ sure from Russia to help the Ma­ drid government against the insur­gents. If Spain-should become really so- vietized, under the guidance of Rus-' sia, the Spanish peninsula would be practically a branch and a depen­ dency of Soviet Russia at the south­ west comer of Europe. Russia, whose planes have been taking informatior on manufactur­ ing poison gas and buildir.g fac­ tories to the nations that are friend­ ly to her in central Europe, might build up a chain of Commiuiist states too powerful even for the dic­ tator governments of Italy and Ger­ many, and the remaining “demo­ cratic” government of Great Brit­ ain. It is not a happy time for Europeans, or for any interested in Europe’s.future peace and welfare. Hitler is reported on the point of siding with the Spanish insurgents against the radical Madrid regime, because of savage attacks made on Nazi officers in Spain. It is reported that a woman in charge of the Hit­ ler office was threatened with death if she would not reveal the 'where­ abouts of her principal; dragged in­ to the streets, her dress was soaked gasoline. An interruption pro­ fited applying the match. £} King Features Syndicate, inc.WNU Service. N ew s R ev iew o f C u rren t E ven ts th e W orld O veri Russian Conspirators Against Stalin Plead Guilty—Itafy and France Sparring Over Spain—Roosevelt Primed for Drouth Area Tour. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © WertOS Nnrepaver Union. Gregory Zinoviev CIXTEEN men, arraigned in Mos- cow on charges of plotting the assassination of Dictator Josef Stalin and the seizure of power in the Soviet republic, c a lm ly pleaded guilty. Two of them, Gregory Zinoviev and Leo Kamenev, were members with Stalin 13 years ago of a triumvirate that governed Rus­ sia and are well known to the outside world. The confes­ sions did not end the trial, for the de­ fendants contradict­ ed and accused one another until the case was in a jumble. Some of them, like Zinoviev, proudly ac­ cepted responsibility for the plot, which was said to have been engi-. neered by the exiled Leon Trotzky. It was believed all sixteen would face the firing squad. Twelve more men and one wom­ an, the government announced, ware held for examination and probable trial. Some of these were involved by the confessions of the sixteen conspirators. In the case on trial the defend­ ants revealed the fact that not only were they plotting the assassination of Stalin and four others,' but planned also to betray Trotzky and place Zinoviev and Kamenev in su­ preme power. TrotAy, at Hoenefoss, Norway, scoffed at the Moscow proceedings as “humbug.” “For political ven­ geance,” he said, “the trial puts the Dreyfus scandal and the Eeich- stag fire in the shadow. The confes­ sions were forced by the ‘Ogpu’ (secret police), which gives the ac­ cused a choice between confession according to the Ogpu’s desires and taking lesser penalties or death.” P REMIER MUSSOLINI, insisting that neutrality in the Spanish war must mean absolute noninter­ vention, suddenly put Italy’s air force of 1,500 war planes in readi­ ness for flight to the aid of the Span­ ish rebels if France wouid not abandon her support of the Madrid regime. News of this stirred the People’s Front government of France to in­ dignation. Officials in Paris said if Italy sent arms and munitions to the rebels in Spain or otherwise openly aided them, France would have to abandon her neutral posi­ tion and help the socialists. For a day this situation alarmed the statesmen of Europe, but soon it was stated in both Rome and Paris that negotiations for the neu­ trality accord were going forward nicely with prospects for a satis­ factory agreement that would in­ clude botli Italy and Germany. Whether Germany would come in, however, was still in doubt. Ber­ lin was further provoked against the Madrid government by the stop­ ping and search of the German steamer Kamerun by Spanish war­ ships off Cadiz. German warships were ordered "to -protect - German shipping “by all means” and the German charge d’affairs at Madrid was instructed to “protest imme­ diately and in the sharpest form against the action of the Spanish warship, which constituted a vio­ lation of all international law.” Virgilio Cabanellas /"’ATALONIA, which for four years has been an autonomous region within the Spanish state, and which has been supporting, the Madrid government against the Fascist reb­ els, sees in the present conditions the opportunity to establish its full independence. The generalitat or government council decreed confis­ cation of all private property; and then, “to eliminate dual con­ trol and place all responsibility in one place,” all magistrates, judges and others appointed by the Madrid government were relieved of their duties. The council also announced it would act henceforth in complete independence in maintaining order. The Catalonian decree promulgat­ ed plans for a single tax and speedy suppression of multiple taxation. The basis for the new tax plan, al­ though undecided was presumed to be income, not land, as the large agricultural properties are to be collectivized. D OPE PIUS XI, addressing pil- * grims from Malta, took another whack at communism. Alluding ev­ idently to the civil war in Spain, he says: “The world is upside down, and sick from a grievous malady which threatens to become graver and more dangerous still. It is not necessary to say to you Maltese what this illness is, because you have a definite part in the tribula­ tion. “There is only the hand of God to aid humanity and put aii end to the horrible massacres which are go­ ing on and all the offenses against human fraternity, against religion, priests and God.” rV S P ATCHES from the French border-said-Spanish rebel war­ ships finally had begun the long threatened bombardment of San Sebastian and Irun, and that the loyal­ ists were carrying out the threatened execution of th s 1,900 Fascist hos­ tages they were holding there. The battleship Espana fired -a lot of .lieavy shells toward Fort Guadalupe but for a time at least was apparently not try­ ing to hit th a t stronghold because many of their sympathizers were held prisoners in the fort. The Guadalupe garri­ son was hesitant in returning the fire for fear that shells would fall1 on French territory. Already the French - government was angered by the dropping of bombs on French border towns, though it was disput­ ed whether they came from loyalist or rebel planes. The Fascists captured the impor­tant town of Badajoz, near the Por­ tuguese border; at the point of the oayonet, and were reported to have •ixecuted 1,500 government adher­ ents taken there. The rebels also reported a victory near Zaragoza after a bloody battle. General Franco met General Mola and “President” VirgiHo CabaneHas at the northern rebel headquarters in Burgos and planned for further ad­ vances of their southern and north­ ern columns on Madrid. These will be supplemented by 4,000 Moors mid foreign legion veterans march­ing eastward from Badajoz. PREPARATIONS for President * Roosevelt’s trip through the drouth region of the Middle. West were practically completed and the Chief Executive was supplied with all the facts and figures needed to give him a comprehensive under­ standing of the situation before starting. This information was fur­ nished mainly by WPA Administra­ tor Harry Hopkins, who was select-- ed to accompany Mr. Roosevelt o^ the tour. Mr. Hopkins told the President that in the drouth area 90,000 persons already are .on the WPA payrolls and that the number eventually will be 120,000 to 150,000; the relief work being continued through the winter. At this time the cost per man is about $50 a month. Estimates of the amount of mon­ ey deemed necessary to meet the situation in the “dust bowl” were given the President by Secretaiy of the Treasury Morgenthau and Acting Budget Director Danid Bell. ; "MEITHER Fascism nor Commu- nism will be tolerated in Czech­ oslovakia, which is “a firm, inde­structible Hghthpuse of democra­ cy,” said President Eduard Benes in a speech at Reichen- berg. But he told the German minori­ ty which he was ad­ dressing ’ particular­ ly; that he hoped that in the fall “the Locarno powers-wiU be able to work out a plan for general European co-opera­ tion and that good neighborly relations wiU be established between Ger­ many and Czechoslovakia.” Leaders of the German minority in Czechoslovakia charge that unem­ ployment in their part- qf the coun­ try is greater than anywhere else in Czechoslovakia—73 unemployed per 1,000 population, compared with the state average of 38 per 1,000. They charge that this is partly the result of the government’s fail­ ure to place orders in German Bo­ hemian factories and faUure to give state jobs to members of the Ger­ man-minority. President . Benes COIL conservation compUance is to vj be checked by a system of aerial photography, if the experiments now being carried on by the AAA are satisfactory. The plan is StiU only on trial but several miUions of acres have already been photo­ graphed,, it was learned today. So far it is proving cheaper and more efficient than the usual way of checking farmers’ soU conservation compUance. The air pictures also, are being extensively used by the soil conservation sendee to map erosion and -soil depletion and to de­ termine remedies. QEVEN minutes of lively fighting O put Jbe Lotis of Detroit once more on the. road to the heavy­ weight championship. He made his come-back by knocking out Jack Sharkey, one time title holder, in the third round at New York. The Lithuanian sailor from Boston was plucky enough but proved no match for the much younger negro. Louis now wants an immediate^ re­ turn match with Max Schmeling, but the German insists his next fight must be with Jim Braddock, IERE is enough , wheat in tH# United States for the usual do- mestic requirements of the season of 1936-37, according to the mid­ summer report of the bureau of ag­ ricultural economic®. Put the supply of red spring wheat and duruin is short and consequently importation of those varieties will be continued. The amount, however, will not be large. Secretary Wallace stated. “It is probable the spring wheat mills in the 1936-’37 season will use a larger percentage of hard • red winter and Pacific northwest wheat than last year,” said the report. “A larger than usual quantity of soft red winter wheat is also likely to be used in bread flour. As a re­ sult, imports of milling wheat may be less than in 1935.” Wheat prices in the United States may be expected to average about as high relative to world price lev­ els as during the 1935-’36 season, when the price of No. 2 hard winter at Kansas City was 15 cents over Liverpool, the bureau said. During the last three years short crops to­ gether with other influences result­ ed in wheat prices in the United States being maintained unusuaUy high relative to the world market price. 1 “Farm prices probably have been 20 cents to 30 cents higher than might have been expected with more nearly normal yields in the United States,” the report contin­ ued. “A return of average or great­ er than average yields in the United States would result in an export sur­ plus and prices would adjust to­ ward an export basis. “The acreage seeded for .the 1936 crop, 74,000,000 acres, was the sec­ ond largest in history, and seedings as large for the 1937 crop would produce fuUy enough wheat for to­ tal domestic utilization even if yields should turn out to be one- fourth below average.” President Roosevelt PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT was at * his best as a radio orator when he addressed the summer camp at Chautauqua, N. Y., on foreign rela­ tions. He expressed his deep concern about tendencies in other parts of the world and spoke bit­ terly about the vio­ lation of both the letter and the spirit of i n t e r national agreements “with­ out regard to the simple principles of honor.” “Our c lo s e s t neighbors are good neighbors,” the President said. “If there are remoter nations that wish us not good but ill, they know that we are strong; they know that we can and will defend ourself and de­ fend our neighborhood.” Mr. Roosevelt said he had . seen war on land and sea. , “I have seen blcgd running from the wounded,” he said. “I have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line—the surviv­ ors of a regiment of 1,000 who went forward forty-eight hours before. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agonies of mothers and wives. I hate war!” Germans felt that Mr. Roosevelt's speech was aimed at them and re­ sented his criticism. A Mexico City newspaper saw in it evidence that the Monroe doctrine was to be re­ vived. ' CTARTING its 1937 building pro- J gram, the Navy department opened bids on twelve new destroy­ ers and six submarines. The bids came from private shipyards and estimates were submitted by navy yards,. according to law. The latter were not made public. It was found that the cost of con­ struction has advanced approxi­ mately $1,000,000 per vessel in the last year. A year ago contracts for destroyers averaged $4,000,000, and $2,500,000 for submarines. Present bids were about a million doUars higher on each type of craft. FOLLOWING the recommendation 1 of Father Charles E. Coughlin the National Union for Social Jus­ tice, in convention in Cleveland in­ dorsed the candidacy of Represent­ atives Lemke and O’Brien heads of the Union party ticket.

He chose to get his views to the pubHc by- staging a confer­ ence at the White House the other day when he summoned Chairman Harrison of the senate finance com­ mittee and Chairman Doughton of the house ways and means com­ mittee for a . breakfast meeting to discuss the subject. He foUowed this almost too quickly by releas­ ing a statement, a letter from Sec­ retary Morgenthau that substantiat­ ed the spoken word of his two con­ gressional leaders. But somehow the word from the White House prompted many ob­ servers here to pick flaws in the pronouncement; they began at once to find several places in the new picture that appeared to have been smeated over by the paint brush, and, in addition, there was a sud­ den yelp from the Republican na­ tional committee which did not help Mr. Roosevelt’s plans to show the country that the tax burden had reached its peak. The RepubHcans were quite harsh because they caUed attention to the fact that Mr. Roosevelt on three previous occasions had assured the country there would be no new taxes, and that in each instance new tax legislation somehow or oth­ er had been enacted by congress. Aside from the presidential dec­ laration that there would be no new taxes nor increases in the present levies and that there would be a study of the general tax structure, the President made the point through Secretary Morgenthau’s letter that there were a good many hundred millions in “recoverable assets.” He also urged upon the country that business has improved so rapidly that additional federal income may be expected from the present tax rates. This latter, of course, is true providing business holds its own or moves to higher levels but it is with respect to the recoverable assets that many ques­ tions now are being asked. For the sake of clarity, it may be ex­ plained that the recoverable assets to which Mr. Roosevelt referred consisted of the loans of federal money by the various emergency agencies for relief and recovery purposes. There are the milHons loaned by the Reconstruction Fi­ nance corporation; the equaHy large amounts loaned by the Works Progress administration and the Public Works administration to states, counties and cities for reUef or for job-making construction. In addition, there are loans by the Home Owners’ Loan corporation, the Federal Farm Credit ad­ ministration, loans for crop produc­ tion, for marketin’ and countless other types. These are all carried on the books as recoverable assets •and - their total may amount to as much as $8,000 ,000 ,000 . The policy of the New Deal ad­ ministration is to consider these at their face value. It is the claim .of the White House consistently -that1 these loans wiU be repaid- and -that' they can be used to retire an equal amount of the national debt, which, * indeed, is true if the loans ever are repaid. So, whenever the New Deal is caHed on to defend itself against charges of imposing a gigantic bur­ den of tax or an equaHy gigantic burden of pubHc debt, its spokes­ men attempt to demonstrate that the pubHc debt figure as weU as the taxes must be considered in their relationship to these recover­able assets. To explain the Roosevelt position further, one may recall that a monte ago when the pubHc debt staSflering total of $33,- 779,000,000 the Treasury secretary contended in a pubHc statement that agamst this -. sum -there- should be offset the cash assets in the gen­ eral fund of the Treasury, then to- mnom i681’^ ' 000 the $2,000 ,- 000,000 of gold that is sterffized in what is known as the exchange ster­ilization fund. ?dd!tion’” 'Mt.

Although perhaps my worries a an individual about govennr poHcies may not be very Imp0J because I am just one indivifei I entertain considerable fear atd those recoverable assets in anofe respect. For some reason—and J think I can state it-I doubt that J very large portion of those reed erable assets ever will be coDectd I have a hunch that in the Mt fifteen or twenty years the build those debts which the Roosevelt g ministration counts as repayahh wiU be cancelled or defaulted. Ia either event, I think I see hoirpdi- tics is going to play an important part and I am convinced further that Mr. Morgenthau and Mt. Roosevelt as well, if he shares lit. Morgenthau’s belief, is overlDoing that very vital influence iiea Ie holds these loans as Btir Io he repaid.• • • I recaU that the late SbattJ Ritchie, four times a Democratic I governor of Maty-1 Default land, predicted tiat I Likely tbe money IosaedJ for the various pa.

Indeed, Gohiw I Ritchie, who was a very piacfcjl man and who thoroughly dislilal deluding himself, used the awl “repudiation” in connection ral these debts. He said they handled just like the $11,000,000,511 of war loans made to EuropeanBi tions. I It is a noble thought, of cmsI that the loans will be repaid, yd I is quite apparent that a cancal tion drive is already under way.

Expenditures for the pres- -ient fiscal year 1937 probably will I be more than nine billions of dol­ lars. This will bring total expendi­ tures under four Roosevelt years to :more than thirty-two billions, as : against receipts of sixteen billions ' from taxes. By borrowing to make up the dif­ ference between Income and spend- •ing the Roosevelt Administration 'increased the public debt more .than eleven billions Sn its first three 'fiscal years. The debt on June 30, 1936, was $33,778,543,494 and it may reach thirty-seven billions by June 30, 1937. The Per Capita Debt, j The per capita debt burden has increased enormously during the Ipast generation. Just prior to- the j World War the burden due to the debt of the Federal Government ;was equal to only about $12 for each man, woman and child in the iUnited States. The per capita Fedi. eral debt rose to about $240 at the •end of the World war and declined I to about $131 by the beginning of ’the depression. At the beginning of the first full ,fiscal year of the Roosevelt admin­ istration the per capita debt was about $180. At the conclusion of ithree years of the Roosevdt ad- i ministration this burden, applicable |to every man, woman and child 'in the country, had advanced to approximately $263 each. And dur­ ing the present fiscal year it may go to almost $300 each. In 'other words the New Deal will have cost :in four years each of our people individually the sum of $120. Mul­ tiply this by 4.8 representing the average number of persons per family, and the result is an in­ crease of $576 per family in the Federal debt as a result of the ^Roosevelt administration. : Summary of Situation. I Following are some briefly stated [facts about the Federal budget situ- >ation: 1 Expenditures in the four years for which the New Deal is' re­ sponsible (June 30,1933 to June 30, 11937) will exceed by at least 27 per !cent the direct cost to the TJnited jStates in carrying on its operations iin the World War. I Expenditures in the four years iwill be at least 33 per cent more !than the total cost of the Govem- jment from 1789 to 1913, a period of' 1124 years. i For the "entire four years ex­ penditures will be at an average ; rate of about $2 for every $1 in re­ ceipts. I Aggregate deficits of ~the four !years will be about equal to the {total public debt at the beginning .of the depression. '■ The public debt at the end of. jthree full fiscal years of the New IDeal was 32 per cent above the ipeak of the .World War debt and 161 per cent greater than at the beginning of the Roosevelt admin- jistration. ' Expenditures in the fiscal year 11936 far exceed those of any other Ipeace-time year. i- Expenditures in the fiscal year .1937 may be greater'than in 1936 even though the bonus item helped to make the total of the fiscal year 1936 abnormally large. Emergency as well as general ’expenditures have continued to in- | crease, although Mr. Roosevelt j says the emergency has passed,- jand although business improve- iment has been in progress. ') Deficit in 1938? I If New Deal policies prevail, fur­ ther large appropriations for emer­ gency purposes and another large (deficit appear inevitable in 1938. I Instead of the reduction of 25 per tcent in Government expenditures j pledged by the 1932 Democratic (platform the average of more than !$8,000 ,000,000 for each of the four jyears of the New. Desd represents !an increase of approximately 100 [per cent over the normal total prior Ito the depression. Expenditures of more than $32- .000 ,000,000 in four years as against ■receipts of only about $16,000,000,. •000 means that the New-Deal nays ’out $2 for every $1 taken in. The New Deal while pretending to the people that it is financing its expenditures by “soaking-the-rich” jhas actually shifted a greater part ,Ot the tax burden to miscellaneous I taxes—many of them concealed— .'which are paid by the general con- : suming public. • I Those New Post-offices, i Woodford County, HHnnjs J3 ,aroused over the determination of IteePostoffice Department to build«•.$75,000 postofflce in the town, of !Eureka. Newspapers Sn the county iprotest that Eurkea now has the jbest postoffice building in Woodford 'county, which was built only a few years ago. The Editor of the Coun­ ity Journal urges that the money be spent on a sewage system,, which is . needed, and which would give em­ ployment opportunities, also need­ ed, At. last reports the protests had received to official attention. Ney Clue Found Charlotte. — Detective Chief Frank N. WttJejohn said he and C. W . Allison, of Charlotte had discovered war records at Hitjcory being what'appeared to be Napo­ leon Bonaparte’s signature. Littlejohn said thedocument also bore notations in the margins by Masbal Michael Ney- which would be compared by handwriting ex­ perts with specimen’s of the hand­ writing of Peter Ney. North Caro­ lina fencing and school teacher who died in 1846 The detective chief and Allison are endeavoring to learn whether Peter Ney and the famed French field marshal were the same person. Although historians said Mar shall Ney was executed for treason, it has been claimed for years that ha was permitted to escape to A- merica and the execution faked. Littlejohn said as much evidence as possible that the two Neys were the same man would be collected before exhuming the body of Peter Ney which lies in a rural church yard near Statesville. D. H.

A most pitiful sight! To see full grown people hobbling around on crutches. Some of them are maimed for life; some for only a short whilt while others use crutches to hum bug the people, pretending they are maimed in order to keep themselves from performing manual labor. Objects of pity and scorn. They bring out your sympathy, or your frowns. Pitiful! Butwhatismore pitiful and scornful is to see full grown Christian men and women hobbling around on crutches of E X ­ CUSE. Few things are oftener on the lips of Christian men and women than excuses. They are continual­ ly excusing themselves from doing what they know in their hearts they ought to do. They excuse themselves from attending a re ligious service on Sunday because of a severe headache. That samo headache does not keep them away from their place of business on Mon day. Company comes and they must stay home and entertain. The fact is they do not stay home, but take their company and sight see all day on Sunday. Night air is of­ fensive to some, so consequently they never attend night services, but Monday night air is different, so they attend the theatre. This writ­ er recalls how, a few years ago, hie approached a member of his church and asked why he did not come to the night services of the church. The member replied, saying be never went out at night at any time for the night air was very offensive to his health. . However, this writer met that member coming out of the theatre as he was going in one night soon after that. Poor cripple! If a fan loves his church as he should, nothing but sickness and death would keep him away from it. ThatSunday morning dizzy feeling keeps many away from church, but not from the golf links, nor the lakeside or river bank, nor the spin to the ccuntry-side Another ex­ cuse crutch is, I am embarrassed to have the collection plate pass me and never have a penny to con tribute, yet, that same fellow is seen on the front seat each night soft.ball is played. Clothes too worn; hat too old (last year’s model), just can ’t go to church. Yet, with the same worn clothes and old hat they would have fingled with on Sunday, had they attended church. I just can’t go to church because one of the members was very free in her criticism of me, so I have decided to quit the church So they move out of the church, lock, stock and bar­ rel and all. That criticism, by no means, is confined to the members of that particular church; folk out. side, in the town are just as critical, but do they pack up, lock, stock and barrel and leave town? No! Some of these days this crutch-crowd of duty evaders, soft-soapers a n d church heglectors will face the JudgeofN ationsand hear; "N ot every one that saith unto me, Lord. Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven,'but be that doeth the will or my Father which is in heaven.” No, sir’ee, you won’t have to go to fortune teller to find out which way these jelly beans will go! W bat a lot of crutch walkers need is conversion : They have never been converted, had they been, they would not continue to make excus es. Gypsy Smith was told by a man once, " I was born with the devil in me.” - "Y es,” Gypsy Smith said, but thank God you can be born again with thedevil out of you.” The devil of drink, thedevil of in­ difference, the devil of unbelief, the devil of unsympatheticness, the devil of contempt, thedevil of doubt the devil of recklessness, yes, the rusting, rotting, mildewing, racking mind polluting, character-wrecking and soul-destroying devil ot excuse making must be cast out, Don’t go NUMB R 7 lroUDd making excuses for not do iug the Lord’s work, nor attending 'he Lord’s services. Excuses will dainu you as sure as you liye.V- The weather may be too hot ortpo cold to attend church, but not to die. It may be too rainy to attend; church, but not to cariy you out to. the city of the dead. ■ »; Some body has said there is more ingratitude among church members than, any other group in all the world. That may be so, and jt may □otbeso. You are to be the judge But we know there is a lot of in gratitude. Church members . will contribute to build a handsome church home, but will, in spite of all pleading, neglect to attend her services. A real church member will never have to be reminded that next Sunday is regular preaching day. Too many m em bershave failed to put the church, 'Bible school and other services of the church into the calendar of-/their lives; everything else is there! Then there is a lack of appreciation of the church leaders. It matters not bow sincere they are; how,-hard they try to carry on, the ungrateful sit by and whisper that they [could have far out stripped their . effort, but do not! Then the preacher comes in for a lot of ingratitude on the part of many members. If his hair is white, he is too old; if: he is a young man, he has bad- no ex­ perience; if-be is down the street, he ought to be in the church ■ office working on his sermon, and if be is in the office working on his s£rmpjjr he ought to be down the street.£eS[ mg folks; if one of his miftnbers (one who has not been In 'church for ages) falls ill, the preacher is cussed .out for not making a bee line to see the poor critter, and if he goes to see him, the chances are that the member will not show- any gratitude to church and pastor by attending the services next Sunday. A clergy man* for more than twenty years, kept an account of the sick persons he visited during that period. The parish was thickly peopled, and, of course, many of his parishioners, during his residence, were carried to their graves. A considerable num her, however, recovered, and a- mong these, two thousand, who in immediate prospect of death, gave those evidence of a change of heart which, In the judgment of charity, were connected with everyiasting salvation supposing them to have died under the circumstances re­ ferred to. As, however, the tree is best known by its fruits, the sin­ cerity of the professed repentace was yet to be tried, and all the promises and vows thus made, to be fullfilled. Out of ibese.two thous and persons who recovered, two only two—by their future lives, proved that their repentances was sincere, a n d their conversion genuine. One thousand nine hun­ dred and ninety eight returned- to their former carelessness,' indiffer­ ence, and sinfulness; and thus show­ ed how Iittle that repentance is to He merely extorted by the rack of death. This is a poor way to live —a life of, nothing but godless in gratitude. This writer urges the church member to be earnest, and sincere. You can. if you wili. One of the saddest things we know is to read in the daily paper that so and so is dead, and was a member of such and such a church, leaving out that word, faithful, which could have been added with all Staoe. hut for one th in g -h e was ungrateful, and cared not for his church, nor those concerned. Better kill the devil of in gratitude before this devil kills you!—AberdeenExaminer..

The Record I* only $1. Decline Of American Womanhood. One of the^ most alarming and serious conditions that America is facing today is the decline of het womanhood. T hisisafactbeyond anv question by al' who are honest hearted and sincere. A few years ago it would have been a disgrace tor girls and women to put on a bathing suit and mix and mingle with men in an ungodly swimming pool. Today this is practiced all over the land, especially in ' the southland. It is one of the most adultrous, degrading, demoralizing sportsthat has ever cursed our land It is literally impossible for men and women to mingle together in this nude condition and keep pure in mind, heart and soul. This is a game of adultry. The modern dance is likewise a game of adultry. Don’t tell me that men and women can dance togeth­ er locked in each other’s embrace, and keep pure. Take adultry out of the modern dance and it will die as dead as a door nail. It feeds on adultry. I’m sure any gentleman who wants a wife that is a lady and Christian won’t go to the modern dance hall to get her, nor the adul­ trous swimming pool. Now say AMEN ” The more the modern dance increases the mnre-the worn an hood of America will decrease And America’s manhood will like­ wise decrease. . Another sure sign , that the wom­ anhood of America is on the decline is the fact that tens:;of tH o ji^ our girls and wotnen are becoming addicted to cigarettes, dope and liquor. The great tobacco concerns are putting forth a mighty effort to put a cigarette in the mouth of every girl possible, and of course the devil- isb iiquor coucerns will put a liquor bottle in the mouth 'of every girl possible. AU that thousands of men want is to make money, and if they can curse and wreck our womanhood and make money thereby, they will do so\ Absolutely. How. silly women (are to be thus deceived, cursed, w.e ked and- ruined! The modern dress of women like wise reveals the fact that there is a decline in modesty. Years ago women would have considered it a shame to expose their bodies to the eyes "of men as they do - today. When the womanhood of a nation declines, and continues, the nation is as sure of moral and spiritual de­ cay as day follows night. No nation rises higher than ber womanhood Rev. W. E. Isenhour. Beyond Our Compre­ hension. ' On the front pages of many news­ papers last week there appeared a picture with the caption: “Twenty Thousand Witness Hanging of Negro in Kentucky.” The picture showed a part of the crowd and also the scene on the scaf­ fold a moment after the Negro was hanged. The affair was described as being- more or less of a carnival.. The spectators cheered when the Negro’s bod; plunged to the end of the rope To understand the motives which prompted 20.000 persons to gather at Owensboro, Ky.. for the purpose of watching another man’s life being snuffed put is beyond our compre­ hension. There is something hor­ rible and gruesome in the thought of 20 ,000 -men. women and children lick­ ing their chops and contemplating with pleasurable anticipation- the consumation of such an event. It almost gives one the- shivers. - Per­ sonally. we would bate to even come in’ contact with -any member of’ that crowd. —The State.

It is the styles these davs to lay all vices 'in the poor old weather man, but this extreme heat has its virtues too —it has made ali of the officials less ambitious (or suspicious) in the visit- •ng inspecting line!

We like this type of insaection and recommend it highly to others. . . . But the month of August has- not been so stodgy as we anticipated in fact quit the reverse. - Early 'in the month, during that period of frying- an-egg-on-tbe-cement tempi rature, the ,Gen. Sup issued-an edict, which was later changed into an iltimatum.

With the shortage of materials and the longage on heat, there. was no percentage in using both to theN ’th degree. These womenhave such a spirit of competition that it took' some time to get the idea registeres. Orie day Mr. Frick, Division Engi­ neer, came in and said, “ Don’t work so/ hardThat settled the whole question, they had permissiori. from Pride of Opinion. John Hauser, of Davie, who at 82 vears of age through a screen door, shot and killed a son in law who wished” to plow laud that bis elder knew was too wet. will not die in the electric chair at Raleigh as he was sentenced. John is dead, with his boots off. at a Winston Sa­ lem hospital, whither he was car­ ried four years since to receive treatment pending a retrial of his case, which had been sent back to the Superior by the Supreme court. Mr. Hauser insisted that he had never intended to kill' the young­ ster, but was really aming at his feet. He ma a'ained that the lad was advancing upon him in- a threatening fashion, anyhow, when he backed into the house and got a shotgun for purpose of self defense. But in spite of bis conviction by a jury of his peers and his sentence by a judge, in spite of the fact that his eyesight was pom: almost to the point of iylindness, the old man John is said never to have expressed any regret for the occurrence. Thelandrdangiti was too wet to plow, and he knew it. If there is a moral to be drawn from this, gentle reader you’ll have to do it. But we would like to at • test to our admiration of one in these parlous, soul-trying times who has that much pride' of opin­ ion on aqy subject having to Mtto- with agriculture.

Finally all of the beauti­ ful denim waB disposed o.f, our beg­ ging and pjeading for more falling on deaf ears, we had to resort to our own ingenuity for amusement. A Personal-Sewing day was insti- t <ted. Every v oTSan was told she could bring her own materials and that for two whole days she could make garments for her household. The object being to give each woman an opportunity to get the patching and darning don; on school clothes, to make new outfits!

Another most interesting project is being planned for a day later 'ori when tne elements are a little more friendly—that of making-over.

Jim Fartey, Roman Catholic high priest of the democratic party, an­ nounced last week that Roosevelt would carry more states this year than he did four years ago. Since he carried 40 out of 48 In 1932 Jim must think be-will carry them all this year. Our tolks are not had on betting but if Jim has any money to back up bis wild statements he could possibly find a few takers in this democratic town. Boyce Cain, Gwin Roberts, Marsh Horn, Duke Bowden, Russell Bes- sent and a number of other Davie democrats, together with Hon. B. C. Brock, Republican nominee for the Senate from this district, have been invited to be in Charlotte to morrow to hear President Roosevelt deliver an address. Ho doubt the President can tell these boys a few things they hadn’t found out up to now. According to reliable reports there Were 40 prisoners in the Davie county jail last Tuesday. So far as wa cau learn this is the largest number of prisoners ever to be con­ fined in the Davie jail at one time since the first jail was built in 183;. Lawlessness seems to be on the in­ crease since the bead of our govern­ ment had the Federal prohibition laws repealed. We generally get what we vote for, and sometimes even more. Big Crowd At Center. Nearly a thousand people from Davie and adjoining counties at­ tended the Christian Harmony sing­ ing and home coming day at Center Sunday. W. F.

In the afternoon Rev. Ralph Johnson assisted in the song service, and sang one or two .songs, which was followed by two or three quar­ tettes. The-day was enjoyed by all present.

In the afternoon there will be short talks, and a number of songs by the choir. It is hoped to have a quartette pre­ sent from Iredell. The day will be spent in getting acquainted with the hundreds of Strouds and their relatives and friends in Davie, Ire­ dell and other counties. Tbe first Stroud to settle in this section moved to Iredell county from Tennessee about 140 years ago, and lived near Society- Baptist church.

A story of two brothers who beat the drought in this section is con­ tained, in the report on a late corn crop in Davie county now approach­ ing its harvesting time. The crop will produce between 700 and 800 bushels of corn upoii the basis of estimates made by farmers in the section in-which the brothers., John Bowden arid G, C. Bowdenlive Their farm is on the highway between Winston-Salem and Advance. TweNe acres is planted in corn. Duke Bowden, a brother of the two who planted the crop, said, while here yesterday, that not a pound of fertilizer was used in the planting of the crop in tbe first week of July. Twelve acres were planted in red land. The corn already has tasseled, Mr. Bowden said and the ears are shoot­ ing on the stalks, two to four on each stalk, despite the lateness of the planting. The corn came up within a few days of the planting, the first plants breaking through the ground about July 10. Stalks are two feet apart, and rows three feet apart. ; The-land -on which the corn .is planted was sowed in lespedeza for two or three years, and wheat and barley' were-sowed in with the Ies- pedeza, Mr. Bowden said. After har­ vesting the crop last year, the -Bow­ den brotherssowed the land , in clover its last crop prior to. the planting in corn in July, this year. Thecrop is considered remarkable for its quick growth and apparently strong production considering the late date atrwhichJt was planted, and shows how farmers really can beat the drought.V^Winston Journal. j.

Whether the co-operation of business men with the government was so satisfy­ ing in the Italo-Ethiopian war is not so apparent. Department of Commerce re­ ports showed a sharp upswing in exports to Italy of military supplies not covered by embargo—things like copper, iron, steel, vehicles and petroleum—even after the neutrality law was passed. But it is impossible to tell whether this increase was due to the war or a natural recovery in trade. It fell off shortly before the acknowledged defeat of Ethiopia.

U n c U P h i l Sometimes We Wonder Do grouches make a fortune more readily than those who are sweet-tempered? A m an may spend ten cents apiece for his three cigars a day; but may his wife spend thirty cents a day for candy? Punctuality is the virtue that keeps you waiting many a time and oft. Yet it is worth while. We Learn From Them Remorse is sOne of the teachers on the faculty of the school run by experience. Discretion is another. If country people realized how strongly city people admire coun­ try scenes, they’d be prouder. Scatter praise; most people don’t get as much as they de­ serve. Notion Still With Us Some old vain notion hangs on, that the purpose of an education is to earn money instead of en­ abling a man to understand the earth he lives on. If you are silent at the right time, you never have to take it back We can all nobly meet the temptation that hasn’t much of an appeal. Philosophy is applying common sense to what you can’t change.

M OOKgVttQBr y 0 - SEPTgMBER: 3, i *36 ii I; I I I flass Arraigns New Deal Evils _ teran Democrat Denies f Patrick Henry Would Have Approved. I. Senator Carter Glass of Virginia in taking issue recently with two advocates of Roosevelt policies em­ phasized the division between con­ stitutional Democrats and the New Deal party. The veteran states­ man who more than two years ago said “the New Deal is not only a mistake; it is a disgrace to the na- ;tion,” was aroused to indignant protest against attempts to claim that Patrick Henry, if alive today., would approve of the New Deal conception of the Constitution. His fire was directed at William C. Bullitt, United States Ambassa­ dor to Moscow, and at Stanley Reed, United States Solicitor Gen­ eral. Mr. Bullitt, appearing as a representative of Mr. Roosevelt at a Patrick Henry Bicentennial cele­ bration at Hanover Courthouse, Vir­ ginia, had declared: “We must open wide a frontier of freedom within our economic structure if we are to preserve in­ tact the liberties for which Henry and Jefferson labored and Wash­ ington fought.” Constitution a Curb? Solicitor General Reed had ex­ pressed the opinion before the Pub­ lic Affairs Institute of the Univer­ sity of Virginia that the Constitu­ tion "is a living, vital institution whose function is to guide and not ;to curb necessary governmental processes.” This was interpreted by the press as a declaration that the New Deal :assumes the right to ignore the I Constitution whenever a new prob- ilem arises involving the divisions 'and limitations of powers. I Senator Glass appeared as a 'guest at the Patrick Henry Bicen- jtennial celebration at Ashland, Vir- -'ginia, a few days after the Reed :and Bullitt speeches. He was not !scheduled to speak, but when called !upon made an extemporaneous ad- ' dress, bristling with epigrams. I “I was amazed to note,” he said, 'referring' to the speech of Mr. jReed, “that a high official of the !Government, a t the University the [other day, in the shadow of Thom- Ias Jefferson’s tomb at Monticello, [asserted that the Constitution was !not designed to ‘curb Government !enterprise’ but to lead the Govera- jment. Patrick Henry was very jmueh opposed to Virginia’s ratify- |ing the Constitution. His reasons !went toward the proposition-that it !did not curb Government enough. 'And because of his efforts the first }ten amendments were drafted, j “The -Constitution was intended j to curb Government enterprise when the Government hasn’t got [sense, patriotism or courage [enough to curb itself and remain within Constitutional limitations.” Defend Patrick Henry. The former Secretary of the Treasury under President Wilson said to the press regarding the Bullitt speech: “I have to* contravene Bullitt’s statement that Patridc Henry would have stood for all these laws the Supreme Court has held uncon­ stitutional. The idea that Patrick Henry would have placed his ap­ proval on these propositions cannot be tolerated.” I Some of the epigrammatic shots j in the Senator’s Ashland speech iwere as follows: ! "The easiest thing in the world jto do is to spend somebody else’s {money and it must be a very [pleasant thing judging from the [number of people who vote for it.” I, “If Patrick Henry were living to- ji'day he would not cure one evil with I a multitude of other evils.” - II “When the Government needs -money it goes down in your pock­ et and gets it. AR this Govem- 'ment-aid talk is folly.” |i No Rubber Stamp. “I am up for re-election. I e&- •pect to abide by my oath of office ►and an oath is as.sacred to me as Jto the President or to anybody -else.” -J "Patrick Henry, if he were living -mow, could he go along with the [yagaries and whims of impractical [academicians, some of whom never [did a day’s work, or earned a meal ilpy the sweat-of their faces?” J “The-President of the United j State's has be&i bitterly criticized: ■hut my comment on his !,would be to the effect that he . the mistake of taking all the power m at Congress was willing to give him.” '• Senator Glass also criticized Con­ gress for “abjectly surrendering its - constitutional functions.” I Scarcity Brings Penalties. If Three years of a New Deal pro- ,gram of scarcity in food prodiic- , tion have been helped along by two (droughts. Foreign countries are .'taking advantage of the situation by sending increasing quantities of food products' into the American market. The latest development is the announcement by the Depart- -ment of Agriculture that Argentine I corn, is bemg sold-in this country at about four cents below domestic . quotations, despite high import du­ ties. Meanwhile the New Deal crop - diversion program for the present fiscal year is costing almost $500,- JOOjOOO Roosevelt Will Visit State. Washington,—President Roosevelt will spend the night of September 9 in the Great Smoky Mountains Na­ tional Park, driving to Asheville1 in the morning and taking his special train from that city to Charlotte, where he is to address the- Green Pastures Southern Democratic rally on September 10, he told Representa­ tive Robert L Doughton. It is undecided as yet whether the President will go to Charlotte via Spartanburg or will take the route through Salisbury, and it probably will not be known until a short time before his departure from Asheville. After his conference with President Roosevelt, however. Doughton said he had suggested tbat he come by Salisbury, as this would enable him to travel over more of the' Tar Heel state.

There are some spiritually mind ed people where hearts are hurt at the passing from us of the Holy Sabbath Day of rest and worship; Little did we think a few years a- go, when this day was observed in Quiet rest and building up of our spiritual selves that we would so soon see the "Continental Sabbath sweep over us like a tidal wave, swamping hojies and churches and individuals. We used to hear with a shiver of that "Continental Sabbath,” and later on some of us saw it.” We were shocked to-see the day God designed for rest and worship used as a day of dissipation and reckless inulgence, with everywhere a for­ getfulness of God and the Sab bath. But we filled up with pride and thanked God our country was not that way and we believed we would preserve the Holy Day. But those deadening changes that seemed like the creeping para­ lysis of moral and spiritual disease. One thing after another went down and out, and many of us went down in the deluge that swept a- way moral and spiritual standards We began to get up to date and ]unk old fashioned ideas. Some of these-were connected with the Sab bath. O ur progressive newspapers delighted in nothing else so much, as to ridicule all Sabbath regula­ tion as "BLU E LAW S.” My how they paraded and. flaunted tha;f heading. Tney have done well theirp'art in breaking dow nall, re-' straint and banishing all respect for the protection of .the day as one of rest and worship. Then came a sinistar step we did not so much fear at the time. We began to refer to the Sabbath as "T he Week End” for. the "Sab­ bath” we made a bad and a dan gerous substitution. We began to more and more make it a picnic day, and a day of visitation after the day of the automobile. We began to pian on Monday to spend "The Next W eet End” with Aunt Mary and Uncle Joe down in Charlotte and while they were cleaning up the dishes and feeling a little a- shamed that, we kept them from go­ ing to Church and Sunday School, we were speeding home planning to take the next "W eek End” trip up to Elkin to see Cousin Sallie and her folks. 'A nd after a while we became toughened to it all. Then some of us shamefully opened our filling station on Sun­ day. We reasoned it was a neces sity and some folks who ran out of gas had to have it. We didn’t feel right at first about sitting around a filling station waiting for business, when others were going to Church and Sunday School w hen—the “ok is in the dicth” —and then if we didn’t our competitor would. Then came the lakes and the swimming pools in the country. Up to that time the most of the pubiic bathing was down at the beach, and we didn’t come in contact with that very much. We wen’t down there, and we thanked God we didn’t do that way in the country. We remember when Aunt Hillie went to Virginia Beach to visit Cousin H ettie a month, and when she came back they asked her if she enjoyed going in bathing in the ocean, and she replied that she didn’t go in,, for every time she went down to take a bath somebody else was using the ocean! W e ceasedjo be shocked at pub lie bathing resorts when they spread all over the country side with lakes and ponds, where bathing on Sun- day was a s'common as at the beac a n d just a s unconventional. We were shocked at-. first when they began to set up stands selling things at these Sunday resorts 16, 1936.NUMBER 8 Of course we soon reasoned, some things are necessary. Folks get thirsty and maybe it was necessary to sell soft drink. And then it cer tainly i3 necessary for men who are victims of the tobacco habit to have their "pasyfyer” or there is no liv­ ing with them. So we began to sell pop and tobacco, and then they hjd to have something to eat. So after awhile, when we became a little toughened to it all, we opened up to sell all the stuff we had. Then came pnblic sports, such as baseball and race and movies We were against such at first, but we weakened. After all, there were worse things than playing ball on Sunday and going to the movies. Of course it didn’t look right, but that was because of our old fashion ed world. And then it was better to be in a movie and at a baseball ground or a golf club on Sunday, than doing things that are worse. Of course didn’t take time to con sider the weakness of that logic,- but it helped to sooth our spirits. So we became accustomed to the yelling at the ball game and the selling of' the tickets and all the finishing touches of wild sport on the Lord’s Day. No, we are not altogether, satis fied about it." We know it does not check up with the program of Jesus and the Church. And w e really don’t enjoy praying like we used to. And when we do go to church and try to worship—there comes a lump somewhere within iis and we can almost hear Uncle Ben as he used to lead in singing at Old; Ebernezer— .y Oh, where is the blessedness I knew • When once I 'saw the Lord; Oh, where isv the soul refreshing view Of Jesus and His Word?” And there is something • about the old days we long for, the pei.ee and the satisfaction when we real­ ly enjoy our Religion more. And frankly, since you ask it we are not as happy as we used to be. Where do. we go from here? What effect will this have on our children. W hat will he the result on the moral and spiritual condi tion of the country What will be the result' in the church programs and attendance. . What will be the effect on hometlife. Really, broth­ er, you are asking us hard ques­ tions that made us uncomfortable. Have we lost the Sabbath. Can we recover it Maybe it will take an old-fashioned revival with some of us kneeling at the altars of the churches of our fathers as we pray to recover what we have lost. But are there any signs of its coming. W ouldn't many be happier if we could regain that something we lost before we changed the Sabboth of God for the “ Week End” of man; before we commercialized and de­ moralized that beautiful blessed and and necessary day God our loving Heavely Father gave us in which we could rest our' weary natures and fed our souls on the bread of heaven —Richmond Christian Ad­ vance with some variations.

Liberal Democrats Organizing News out of Raleigh is to the ef- tect that Liberal Democrats are be­ ing organized in every county in the state one of the objectives be­ ing to hold together the 212,000 Democrats who cast their ballots for Dr. Ralph W. McDonald in the recent primary. Three other objectives announc ed by the Liberal Democrats are: 1. Thereform ationofthe elec­ tion laws, including the abolition of the absentee ballot and all mark­ ers in all elections^ primary and, regular. 1. The complete abolition of the sales tax, in the 1937 general assembly if possible, and if not then in subsequent essemblies. 3 . The re election of Franklin D Roosevelt as President. Nothing is said about working for the election of the Democratic state ticket in the November elec­ tion and inquires directed at those high in the councils of the Liberal Democrats brought the reply - that the organization was going “to play hands off” in the state elec tion. When asked if this did* not mean that a large number of the Liberal Democrats would "'vote for Gilliam Grissom, the Republican candidate for governor and probab Iy for other Republican candidate for state office, rather than for the Democratic candidates, i t . was ad mitted that this "probably - would be the ease.” —Ex. , , Last Republican Post­ master Out, MonroeAdams, the last remaining Republican postmaster i n - North Carolina, handed over the keys of the States ille post office.

Adams, who has been postmaster, a little more than four years, wiil re- sume the practice of law.—Ex, Our Election Laws. There is one radical change which the next session of the legislature should make in our election laws, and hat is to abolish the present systen >f absontee-ballot voting. At every election there are mam thousands of fraudulent absentee bal­ lots east in the various precincts scat- te-ed throughout North Carolina AU political factions are guilty of this, practice and it apparently is on the increase all the time. ThereieonlyonesoIulion and'that is to do away with absentee ballotr antirely and hold elections in North Carolina the way they are supposed to be held—fairly and squarely. Every voter should appear at th> polls personally. If he is sick in bed chat’s his bad luck; if be is out oi town, he will have to surrender his right to vote. This sounds as though it might be unfair to an invalid—and perhaps it is—but for every unfair ease of this nature, you would get rid of one hundred Unfair eases which now exist under the absentee ballot plan. The citizens of North Carolina should rise up and demand that th« fraudulent system of casting absen­ tee ballots be brought to a halt. And please remember this fact: that as long as any kind of a loop hole is left, it will result in crookedness. The only sensible plan would be to *et rid of the system in its entirety. —The State. (Jp To State Officers To Do Tbeir Duty. Although North Cirolina is legal­ ly ‘-‘dry” aside from the small grour of eastern counties which have coufe ^yfitQuorcontrol-systems; there wer*= 57 wholesale and 2.765 retail "Iiquoi lealers” in the state who paid spe­ cial federal taxes last year. This large number in a nominalh dry state arises from the fact the federal government requires dealers in wine to have "liquor dealer’ stamps. North Carolina has ho re striction on the sale of naturally fer­ mented wines. Areport on receipts by district? from occupations subject to specia’ taxes for the fiscal year ending Jum 30 was issued by the bureau of in­ ternal revenue. It showed that there were one brewer, 100 wholesale and 2,191 re­ tail occupational stamps iasued for fermented malt liquors 0 r . beer. Holders of liquor dealers stamps are not required to purchase_lhe fer­ mented malt liquor dealer stamp also. We don’t know how it is now but it used to be the law in this state that a federal liquor dealer’s license in the hand of a man was prima facie evidence that he was selling liquor and was liable to indictment in the state courts. Nearly all the wine sold i3 around one-fifth alcoholic in­ tent and it doesn’t take but a couple of glasses to make a fellow feel “funny.” There are 20 solicitors in the state and it behooves them to get busy and get a list of these persons who are' holding liquor licenses in the state and investigate and if they are violating the law to see that the school fund is swelled and it wouldn’t hurt to make a few examples in road building with the liquor dealers who violate the dry laws with impunity. —Ex. War Signs. Citizens living in the Unionville. Union county community, are con­ vinced that the tense situation in' Europe will ultimately flare into a war of world wide proportions, all because the signs point that way. ' Rev. T. B. Anderson reports that the people of that section have found that the fourth blade from the tas­ sel, on corn stalks %re in the shape of a fwdrd^not onlytan oOe stalk but on all stalks. This phenomenon only Occurs when a conflict is in prospect. The fourth bladewaB iff the shape of a sword in 1914,-they say, and look what happened! Their fathers and grandfathers be­ fore them believed in this sign and accurately, .predicted wars. So, if war comes don't say the’people of "' Unionville didn’t warn you. The Sales Tax Wanes, (From The Winston-Salem JournalJ "Sales taxes* considered by many 'o be primarily a depression source >f revenue, have so far been dropped by five of the twenty-eight states •hat have adopted them during the ast few years.” declares State Gov­ ernment monthly, periodical of the Council of State Governments. “Of the twenty-one states which n *w have sales taxes in force, eleven idminister a temporary law which expires next year. Expiration dates nay lift the tax next year in Arkan­ sas, Colorado. Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, North Carolina, North Dakota. Ohio, Oklahoma West Virginia and Wyom­ ing.” Commenting on this, the New York World-Telegram says: "This state, like Maryland, Penn­ sylvania, Kentucky and New Jersey, tried the sales tax and was thankful to be rid of it. The people of Oregon. Iefeated a sales tax in three referen- Ium elections. Even Governor Hoff ■ -nan of New Jersey, who now sug. jests reviving it. is careful to stress nis readiness to accept a substitute “States have come to see the sales cax as a bad economic error, born of tax desperation, hampering business recovery and tending dangerously to prolong itself beyond emergency. How long will it take the city of New York to fall into step and adopt the 'shortest way out’—and the wis- is t-with its own local sales tax?” ’-; To which we add the suggested hope that North Carolina legislators will not stop to back and fill over the "necessities of life,” next year, Bjat - ;rant the people of this state a com­ plete liberation from a depression remedy the need of which, is vanish- jigjwith_the depression: ' - ' ' TVA Strongbold Bolts New DeaL -"TVA workers must Be anti New Deal at heart, despite their pay en­ velopes,” was the comment of Chair- nan Myers E. Hartman of the Knox Idunty Tennessee Republican Com- nittee during a visit to National ■ Committee headquarters a t Chicago, the past week. “Else how could we i-oll up the biggest Republican ma­ jority in the history of Knox coun- cy, with nearly 3,000 of the TVA leadqijarters employes at Knoxville troting in our local election? “Folks in the north don’t seem to nave heard about what happened to .be New Deal down our wav. On August 6, we had an election for county officers in Knox county. The regular Republican nominee for sheriff, J; Carroll Cate, received: 16,- 061 votes TheDemocraticnominee, •J. D. Val Crippen, received 10,872. An iudependent Republican candi­ date received 2,658. "On the eve of the ejection the Dsmocratic candidate for Governor, Gordon Browning; declared in a speech in Knoxville that ■ President Roosevelt would be more interested in a Democratic victory in Knox ' county than in any otber county ;in the whole United States. Browning said he would lake pleasure in wiring Roosevelt as soon as the returns were tabulated. I don’t know wheth­ er he did or not.” ' 'f • HartnDian continued: *‘.We elect­ ed every candidate for county office on the Republican ticket/ for the first time since 1918. But that vote for sheriff is the big punch.' It was- ' not only the biggest Republican ma­ jority in the history of the count}’, but the total vote was the biggest. So"the New Dealers can’t alibi by saying people just didn’t go to the polls. Incidentally, this is the re­ gular time for our county elections; “ We have a better chance of car^ ryihg Tennessee than aiiy. Southern state, except Florida," said Hart­ man, “Tennessee has gone Repnbli-; can twice in rebent presidential campaigns. We can do it this yesc: Democrats in Tennessee are plenty fed up with Roosevelt and :the Nenj Deal.. They are old-fashioned de­ mocrats. They believe in state rights and'Americanism.

IN ADVAiNCE - S SO The Chariotte Observer said last week that Maine would go Repub­ lican in the election held this week. Well, the Observer was right for once. Jim Farley said he thought Delano and Eleanor would carry all the states. He was wrong. It is reported that only democrats are being employed' ‘this year as school teacheas in Madison county. We could name several other coun ties that are almost in the class with Madison. And yet there are liars in this state who say there Is no politics in our school system. Lots of democrats and Republi cans went to Charlotte last Thnrs day to see and hear President Reosevelt. H eie a Rood fellow, but some of the company he keeps —well, wn are like the New York democrat said one day recently— Roosevelt is a good fellow, but look at boss Jim Farley.______ Wonder who told the Winston Jouraaleditor that William Ran­ d o lp h Hearst was dictating to Alf Landon? Hearst is the bast felloTw in the country whan he backs up the democrats, and the worst fellow iB the world when he fambasts the New Deal. Such is Jim Farley politics in this good year. Seems that some of our people are under the impression that be cause Mr. Roosevelt used his in­ fluence in having the prohibition Laws repealed in most of the states, that they are at liberty to make and sell liquor any time and anywhere. Judge Clement dispelled this de­ lusion to some extent in Davie last week. Roosevelt ran on a liquor plat­ form tour years ago and was elected by 7 ,000,000 majority. Today Rooseveltisrunning on the same wet platform, and the Republicans havj nominated' a prohibitionist against him. And yet there are thousands of preachers and laymen who lay aside their religion when it comes election day. There are thousands of democrats and Re­ publicans who' would vote for the devil if their party should nominate him. _____________ . Gus W . Dyer, Professor of Economics, Vanderbilt University, wrote President Roosevelt an open letter a few weeks ago, in which Mr. Dyer presented facts and figures that Mr. Roosevelt has not and will hot be able to answer. Mr. Dyer concludes his letter to the president as follows: “The figures here given Mr. President, indicate that the conditions you- described in your Philadelphia address did not exist and never haveexisted, aud couldn’t exist under the constitution in this country. The conditions you por­ trayed exist only in the*' minds of socialists, communists and other radicals who are grossly ignorant of the facts of o u r industrial life,’ Mr. Roosevelt perhaps didn’t mean to misrepresent fact£—Ke probably didn’t know any better.

He's an old-time Sleepy Cat gam­ bler and confidence man—up t'o every game they ever played from here to Frisco." “What’s his name?” “They used to call him Big Bill Hayes.” “I heard that name.” “Guess you did—guess everybody’s heard i t” “But he made a trip to Panama when the French outfit was runnin’ things there. He cleaned up on the French­ men, and they run him out of town. He says he got the dysentery down there. Anyway, he got away tefore they strung him up for a cardsharp. Now everybody calls him Panama." “What’s he doin’ here now!” “Why, the damned critter got reli­ gion somehow, and he’s the kindest, best preacher that ever talked in Sleepy C at He’s , doin’ a world -of good.” ' Oscar spoke up. “Panama’s break­ ing Jake of swearing. Bull.” “Got a job, ain’t he?" snickered Bull. “Just the same, he’s cooled me down a lot—you know that, Oscar," declared Spotts. “Otto!" he yelled to the porter in the back room. “What the hell’s a-matter with the hot water this mornin'?" CHAPTER IV Jane made it. a practice to visit her father at the Medicine Bend hospital at least every two weeks. She spent the day at.th e hospital with her father, ate an early supper with him, and took Number One back to Sleepy Cat. Her father asked a good many questions about McCrossen. “A good man,”. Van Tambel said wheezily of him again and again. “His only trouble is gambling—he will gam­ ble.” ‘Tm sorry, Father,” returned Jane with asperity—It was not the first time he had made the same remark—“but I don’t quite see how I can watch him, do you?” “Well, keep track of the shipments this month. The steers will be going out right along now—good deal of money coming in. See that he don’t get too much away from you, under one pretext or another. When he wants money to gamble, he won’t stop at nothing. And It won't do a bit of hurt to be kind of nice to him yourself.” Hints such as these failed to move Jane. Indeed, they aroused an an­ tagonism. When the train pulled into Sleepy Cat late that night it was cold; a north wind was spitting rain. McCrossen was on hand with the two-seated buck- board. He met Jane at the Pullman Step and hurried her through the sprinkle across the platform to the rig. “I piled the house supplies In the back,” explained McCrossen, “so you’d better ride with me.” “Brought you an extra-heavy coat over,” he added. “Thought you might need it. Will you put It on -now?" His voice, never harsh, sounded so licitous. Jane thought she would put the coat on. Her foreman, sitting be­ side her, helped her get into it His manner was tender. His hands, as he Stralghtenedi the coat collar, lingered I moment c>n her shoulders. Jane shook her shoulders slightly to draw them away. “Your father’s a great man, Jane,' be said. “No use talking’ ‘Tm glad to hear someone say a good word for him,” returned Jane dryly. “Oh, he's got his enemies, I know. But from the first minute I ever saw you, girl, when you got off the train ‘.hat mornin’ In Sleepy Cat”—McCros- een inclined in friendly fashion toward bis tight-sitting little companion to em- ahasize his words—“from the very first minute I saw you, I said to myself, There’s a girl with all the grit and land of her father.’" ' “Hadn’t you better drive a little fast­ er?” suggested Miss Tight Sitter, casually. “I’m afraid to push the old buck- board over this part of the road. So I said to myself,” he continued, “ ‘There’s a girl with her father’s grit and her mother’s beauty.’ Jane”—he lowered his voice, becomingly—“are you warm?” “Quite.” “And comfortable?" “Perfectly. But I should like to get on faster.” McCrossen brought the horses to a stop. “What’s the matter?”, asked his companion rather tartly. “This Is Gunlock Ford. The creek was runnin’ kind of high when I drove through after supper, and it’s been rainin' all evenin’. We don’t want to get caught in the water. I’ll get out and see how things look. Take the lines a minute. “It’s safe, I reckon,” he reported, re­ turning soon to the rig. “But you’d better put your'feet In my lap till we get across. The water might come up through the floorboards.” Her response was chilly. “My feet will be all right where they are.” “0. K., Jane! But you’re about the sweetest girl I ever saw in the world.” Suiting action to these words, Mc- Crossen put his arm swiftly around the girl and pulled her toward him for a kiss. He failed to get one. Instead, he got a smart slap from Jane’s gloved hand; and she pushed him back with a force he had not thought possible in so deli­ cate a feminine make-up. “Please mind your business, Dave, and attend to your driving,” said Jane collectedly. The night was an unquiet one for Jane's pillow. The more she thought about her surprise admirer and his' crude advances, the angrier she grew. In the morning she breakfasted and ordered her saddle pony. She meant to take a long ride all by herself and rid herself of her annoyance in the morning air of the high hills. The day was sympathetic to her pur­ pose. She rode under a cloudless sky Into the far reaches of Gunlock Banch. Insensibly, the clouds in her mind cleared and left her free to enjoy the glory of the scene. On and on, Jane rode. The pony was spirited and seemed, like his mistress, to enjoy the jaunt. The farther she rode, the wilder the country grew, with The Farther She Rode, the Wilder the Country Grew. only small bunches of cattle here and there to remind her of her domain. At length the hills grew too rough for pleasure riding. With her spirits quiet­ ed and feeling invigorated, Jane reined about for the ranch house. Covering considerably more distance, Jane, having grown weary, was re­ joiced at last to see the dusty, serpen­ tine foothills road well below her. Hav­ ing reached It, she reined into It and jogged along, confident of reaching home soon. Presently she encountered an Indian family traveling toward , her In a wagon. She reined up. "Am I heading right for Gunlock Ranch?” she asked of the man driving. . He nodded affirmatively. But a bright-eyed boy In the wagon box made a protest He jabbered in low tones to his father and, turning to Jane, ex­ claimed, “Wrong way,” and pointed north. The father shook his head, and the dispute grew. Jane, confused by the uncertainty, thanked the party and rode on south. A few miles farther she met a horse­ man heading north. As he drew near, Jane thought she recognized him as the man who had directed her back to the ranch a couple of weeks before, at the close of a long day of riding through the Gunlock hills. Jane reined up in­ quiringly. The horseman responded to the unspoken invitation by doing like­ wise. Jane saw a slender faee, deeply- tanned, black .hair, mild brown , eyes, a large nose, and a small'' mouth, framed by a not unfriendly chin. “Good-morning,” ventured Jane. “Gan you tell me whether I am on the right road to Gunlock Ranch?” The man listened but made no effort to speak. Instead he looked at the girl silently. His gaze was embarrassing. He ignored her question and instead asked one himself: . “Aren’t you the girl who got lost around here.a couple of weeks ago?' “Y-yes,” answered. Jane. ■ “And aren’t yon the man who directed me back to Gunlock Ranch?” “Guess I was,” the man replied, In an absent-minded way.” “I realize that it’s stupid of me to lose my way again,” she said, “but can you tell me whether I am heading right for the ranch?” He found his tongue and spoke quietly: “Well . . . you’d reach the ranch the way you are going, though probably not today.” “Not today?” she asked in amaze­ ment. ‘ ' “You want to reach the ranch house, I suppose?” “I do.” “Then you’re heading the wrong way.” “Will you please set me right?” “You'd ■ better take the back’ trail'. You’re going away from the ranch house now.” Jane exclaimed In surprise. “Why, how is that? Are you sure?” “Dead sure.” A suspicion of humon crept into the words. Confused at being caught wrong, Jane flushed. The man, silent, just looked at her. She did not like it; he might be laughing at her. Facing him more sternly, she asked with helpless annoyance in her words, “What am I to do?” “Back trail.” ■- “What does that mean?” she asked tartly. “Turn around.” “Where am I?” “Pretty well out on the Gunlock In­ dian Reservation.” “I’ve never felt so stupid In my life,” declared Jane, trjing to act at ease as she reined about. “I thought I Enew this country well enough by this time not to get lost. I’m certainly not a tenderfoot.” The man smiled, but - to himself. “There’s been men here several years who get lost riding In the hills. It’s n# disgrace for a two-monthser.” Jane did not relish being termed a “two-monthser.” “Oh, I’ve been here before,” she said airily. He offered no comment. Tired, wait­ ing for him to say something, Jane was nettled by his continued silence. ‘I see you’re wearing your bracelet,” he remarked, of a sudden. The words came, so to speak, out of a clear sky. She looked at him just as suddenly as he had spoken; and in alarm. He was looking straight ahead- just as if she were not within miles— and with the impassive expression of a man riding quite alone. Could he be, she asked herself in a flash of fear: a bad man? Could he mean to rob her of her bracelet and watch? For a moment she was too upset te speak. But her silence seemed not to move her companion. Looking . placidly ahead, an d , after waiting for her to comment, he spoke again: ■ . , . “I might be wrong. But I thought I saw that bracelet about two years ago, Fourth of July—” “Oh,” exclaimed Jane for want of something better to say. “Anyway,” continued her even-speak­ ing guide, “I know I couldn’t be mis­ taken about the young lady that wore it Weren’t you visiting here around that time?” “Yes,” ventured Jane, stealing a glance at the questioner. His gaze was fixed steadfastly ahead. “Were you at the Frontier Day cele bration In Sleepy Cat that Fourth of July?” .he continued. “Y-yes,” repeated ' Jane. IW-Werq you?” “If I hadn’t been,” he answered dry. ly, “I shouldn’t have seen the brace le t” They were jogging along pleasantly enough, and as the man didn't actually demand her bracelet or watch, Thet panic subsided. “Stopping over at the ranch for a while, are you?” “For a while, yes.” “Some of the boys over at your ranch were telling. In town they had a young lady over at Gunlock that used to rldi In a circus. I suppose It was you.-” “I’m 'the only woman, young'or old, over there.” “What circus did you work with?” “Oh, several circuses,” said Jana recklessly. “What were some of them?" Jane, growing flighty, named one of the big ones whose shows she had at­ tended in Chicago. “W hat year were you with that show?” She was growing desperate. With-af­ fected embarrassment she turned full on him. “You mustn’t ask me that. Women are sensitive about their age, don’t you know?” For the first time he turned his eyes directly toward hers; there was a slight mutual shock at the encounter. To hide a momentary confusion, she laughed nervously; but a bridge—a lit­ tle bit of a bridge over a little bit of a brook—had been crossed. And the little bit of a brook was of fhe kind that sometimes leads to a big river. ■ His eyes were brown—Jane could sets them now—together with some oi the lightning that flashed in response to her words. She was even a little scared. “I’ve heard some women are that way,” he went on, “but I shouldn’t call you a woman.” ’ “Oh, my i ’ Why not?” “Well, I’d call you a girl. The reason I asked was, because I was with that show one season myself.” This was growing terrifying. Jane made an effort to change the line of talk; but her stranger was Interested “Did you ever happen to ride in Mad. Ison Square Garden?!’ “N-no! Did you?” “I rode there one winter wh»n wt showed there.’’ .. (TO -BR CONTmUED)- . Shirtwaister for School Girl * j 1959-B.

THE FIRST PLATFORM I ASE of the essentials of a mod- I w em political convention is the adoption of a “platform ” upon which the Presidential nom inee is to “take his stand” during the campaign. Whether or not he stays on it is quite another m at­ ter but few candidates would think of going before the “ peepul” -with­ out one. The first platform appeared dur­ ing the campaign of 1840. In th at year the Democrats, holding their convention in Baltim ore, set forth that they considered the funda­ mental principles of their party. Isserting that the federal govern­ ment was one of strictly lim ited Kters and that all grants not ex­ pressly made to it w ere reserved j Au the states, this platform Declared against the assum ption |»! state debts, contracted for lo­ cal improvements, by the federal government. ! Denied the power of the federal government to foster one industry, or section, to the detrim ent of an­ other. Asserted that the federal govern­ ment exceeded its authority when “ raised more revenue than w as teIUired to defray the ordinary ex­ penses of administration. . -Denied the power of congress to mterfere with or control the insti­tution of slavery. /IfM red against the handling public funds by private banks, denounced restrictions upon the r!J ,es o£ citizenship and of Jpership of land with respect to “teign immigrants. .=Lj J hen unanimously renom i- | d Martin Van Buren for the IL h^icy ?nd got readY to fiSht ofnnr , 2 haUots along the lines a ?? cy theY had laid down.

C., are discovering new answers to many mysteries of one of the most brilliant of early American civilizations. Under the direction of Dr. V. A. Kid­ der, these explorers into the past have come upon important new relics left hundreds of years ago by the Maya Indians.

But the new dis­ coveries art in the highlands, and for that reason it is believed they may 0PfnJ tP entire new fields of discovery. Though the'pyramids were more or less common in the lowlands, this is the first to be found in the hills.

Particularly amusing is the old sculp­ ture in this, a political year. For the scene which it treats is apparently some sort of meeting in the council chamber of a governmental body, m d the charac­ ters are listening to one of their number as he delivers a speech. That political oratory, then as now, was flavored with . a generous helping of plain hooey is evi­ dent from the antics m d postures of the listeners while the speaker .is “waving the flag”-in-traditional enthusiasm and gusto.

M * p t e t e i B R I S B A N E TH IS W EEK Hear the Noble Lord He Sees a New Germany I, A M ust for the D. S. A. 1I Strength Alone Protects An association called “The Anglo- Geniian Fellowship,”, a name which shows that men forget wars as easily as they do seasickness, gave a dinner in Lon­ don in honor of the ' Duke and D u c h e s s of Brunswick, who are Germans, as was the British royal family orig­ inally. Among other speakers at the d in n e r, Lord Lothian talked about war, the importance of doing something to satisfy Germany, now that Germany is strong enough to fight back. Arttaor Brisbane Lord Lothian has discovered that it is one thing to deal with dissatis­ fied populations when they are un­ armed, and a very different thing to deal with the same dissatisfied populations when they are fully armed. , The British made that discovery for themselves long ago, before Lord Lothian was born, in the process of building up their great empire. If the Boers, Hindus, Zu­ lus and some others had been as ‘thoroughly armed as they were thoroughly dissatisfied, the British empire would be smaller. Americans who want to know what Europeans, including the Eng­ lish, are thinking and planning, will be interested in the following state­ ment by Lord Lothian concerning Germany. It has been suggested that England and France should pacify Germany by giving back some of the colonial properties tak­ en from Germany at the end of the war. Lord Lothian is one of the numerous Englislimen who do not believe in “giving things back.” Said he: “Personally, I do not believe that the problem can be solved along the lines of the restoration to Germany of the old German colonies. That would not solve Germany’s difficul­ ties, and things have changed since 1914. The question must be con­ sidered on much wider lines. All the colonial nations must be willing to - make their contribution to a transfer of territory. The new world as well as the old must be willing once more to reopen its doors to trade and migration.” . * The statement of the noble lord that “the new world as well as the old Must be willing,” etc., has no pleasant sound in American ears. The word “must,” especially, is one that a wise Englishman could hardly apply to the United States after 1776. Lord Lothian probably meant that the United States “ought,” not that it “MUST,” once more reopen its doors to trade and migration. The United States, it is to be hoped, will decide for itself about reopening its doors to trade and immigration. This country needs more of the immigration that made it what it is—it is NOT u redskin country, its people came from Eu­ rope, and it needs many millions more of the same kind. It also needs, and the majority of its peo­ ple intend to keep, American jobs, American wages and American money for the people who live and work in the United States. There is nothing like being strong and prepared for trouble. You no­ tice. how differently Germany ap­ pears in the eyes of France and other nations surrounding her to­ day, as compared with the years after the war. Hear Ixird Lothian o’, that subject: “Germany now has both equality and strength. Reparations have gone. Part V of the Treaty of Ver­ sailles has gone. The demilitariza­ tion of the Rhineland has gone, and the sooner that recovery of her natural right to self-defense is ac­ cepted without further discussion the better. Germany.is rearmed. It only remains for the'British govern­ ment to abandon once and for all the fatal system whereby she lirst has a conference with her friends and then presents the results as a kind of ultimatum to Germany—the sys­ tem represented by the recent questionnaire—and to substitute for it free and equal and frank discus­ sion around a table. The old sys­ tem is not equality, either for Ger­ many or for ourselVes.” What. telephone girl in America has the softest, most beautiful, most easily understood voice? That ques­ tion was asked in .

B y E D W A R D W . P I C K A R D © W estern N ew spaper Union. President Roosevelt D 1EVISING the 1937 budget fig- Ay ures he submitted to-congress in January, ■ President Roosevelt now estimates that expenditures caused by the bonus and the AAA invali­ dation will put the public debt at the all-time high figure of $34,188,543,494. He says, however, that better business will run tax receipts up $12,000,000 high­ er than was expect­ ed. The President’s revision covered the fiscal year that be­ gan July I last and will end June 30, 1937. During his absence from the capital it was is­ sued by Acting Budget Director Daniel W. Bell. The chief items changed by the estimate were: 1. Receipts, fixed at $5,665,839,000. 2. Expenditures at $7,762,835,300. 3. Gross deficit ^for the year at $2,096,996,300. 4. Public debt on June 30, 1937, at $34,188,543,493.73. These estimates compared with January figures as follows: 1. Receipts of $5,654,217,650. 2. .Expenditures of $7,645,301,338. 3. Deficit of $1,098,388,720. 4. Public debt at end of year of $31,351,638,737. The $2,000,000,000 deficit Mr. Roosevelt estimated is the lowest of the New Deal. Regarding this fig­ ure the President said: “The estimated deficit for 1937 is $2,096,996,300 which includes $580,- 000,000 for statutory debt retirement and $560,000,000 for further pay­ ments under the adjusted compen­ sation payment act. “Deducting the amount of the statutory debt retirement leaves a net deficit of $1,516,996,300. ‘This does not mean that there will be an increase in the public' debt of this amount for the reason that it is contemplated during the year to reduce the working balance of the general fund by approximate­ ly $1,100 ,000 ,000 .” What Mr. Roosevelt meant by this was that instead of borrowing mon­ ey to cover the difference between receipts and expenditures, the Treasury would dip into the general fund for $1,100 ,000 ,000 . PRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT and 1 Alf M. Landon, rival candidates for the presidency,. met in Des Moines, Iowa, in their respective capacities of President of the United States and governor of Kansas, and discussed the problem of relief for the drouth sufferers and prevention of future drouths. With them were the governors of other midwestern states. Governor Landon was pre­ pared to offer for consideration the program for long distance drouth relief which he submitted to Harry L. Hopkins, WPA administrator, during the more serious drouth of 1934. It was said to resemble in many particulars the plan the Pres­ ident has been advocating in recent speeches and is a joint federal- state program. Just before the Des Moines, con­ ference got undev way there were heavy rainfalls in Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma which weather fore­ casters thought were “the begin­ ning of the end of the drouth.” - P iRANCIS B. SAYRE, assistant 1 secretary of state in charge of- reciprocal trade agreements, has returned from a six weeks’ tour of Europe, and the de­ partment has begun a drive to expand that favorite pro- grani of Secretary Hull. Fourteen of those agreements already have been signed, and a survey is being made of other nations with which trade pacts it n C -T ,-- “ ay be concluded. * * oayre During the next fis­ cal year negotiations will be opened with as many as possible and offi­ cials said as many as a dozen new treaties may result. Ten months re­ main before the power given the President by congress to negotiate such pacts expires. Officials declined to specify which nations may be approached on pos­ sible trade pacts until the study of trade and trade trends between the United States and other ' nations gives an indication of which might prove most profitable. I T WAS Benito Mussolini’s . turn * to go into the European version of the Indian war dance, following Hitler and Stalin, and he gave a great performance. At Avellino, center of the Italian army maneu­ vers, II. Duce announced to a cheer- tag throng that he could mobilize 8,000,000 soldiers, “in the course of a few, hours and after a simple order." The premier* declared the World is in the throes of an irresisti­ ble re-armament race and Italy must reject the idea ,of.- eternal peace, which he said is “foreign to our creed and to our temperament.” He asserted that the armed forces of Italy are more efficient than ever as a consequence of the Ethiopian war and that the 60,000 men en­ gaged in the maneuvers are but a modest and almost insignificant part of the country’s actual war strength. “We must be strong,” cried Mus­ solini. “We must be always strong­ er! We must be so strong that we can face any eventualities and look directly in the eye whatever may befall!” Germany’s new army of a mil­ lion men, created by Hitler’s order doubling the term of compulso­ ry military training, is to. be fi­ nanced by increased taxes on all companies and corporations by 25 per cent for 1936 and by 50 per cent for 1937. -This increase brings the corporations tax up to a mini­ mum of 25 and 30 per cent on new profits. TAPAN proposes to build up a J submarine fleet approximately 30 per cent larger than that of either Great Britain or the United States. Such was the substance of a note delivered by the Japanese embassy in London to the British foreign of­ fice. The decision replaces the sub­ marine parity among the three pow­ ers established by the 1930 London naval treaty. Japan notified Great Britain that it was determined to keep afloat 11,059 tons of destroyers and 15,- 598 tons of submarines above the 1930 London treaty quotas. This tonnage, if the treaty’s provisions were carried out, would be scrapped at the end of this year. The Japanese note was in reply, to Great Britain’s memorandum of July 15, 1936, invoking the “escape clause” of the first London treaty in order to increase its destroyer ton­ nage above the pact’s allowance. Japan gave the lack of- sufficient excess destroyers as its reason for retaining a surplus in submarines. The United States, like Great Brit­ ain, has decided it must keep in service after the end of the year 40,000 tons of over age destroyers in excess of the total permitted by the 1930 treaty. Gen. Rydz- Smigly. CHOULD war break out in Europe, France counts on having the, powerful Polish army on her side. Consequently the week long visit of Gep. Edward Rydz - Smigly, in­ spector general of that army, and a Polish, military mis­ sion to France was made the occasion of elaborate certo monies. The train carrying the Poles crossed the border at Belfort and there General Rydz-Smig- Iy was received by th e commanding generals of the area and reviewed thousands of troops of the frontier regiments. Going thence to Paris, the Poles were accorded the high­ est military honors and the crowds in the decorated streets cheered them lustily. Dinners for the guests were given by President Albert Lebrun, Pre­ mier Leon Bltun and Foreign Min­ ister Delbos. Later they were taken to the Franco-German frontier where they inspected the famous Maginot defense line' of concrete and steel strongholds and passages. TN AN appeal to the Supreme * Court of the United States the Virginian Railway company made an attack, on the provisions of the railway labor act authorizing collec­ tive bargaining between representa­ tives of the employees and the car­riers. The railroad appealed from rul­ ings by the Eastern Virginia Fed­ eral District court and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals re­ quiring it to negotiate concerning disputes with a unit-of the . Ameri­ can Federation of Labor. It con­ tended the legislation, passed in 1926 and amended in 1934, violated the Constitution by depriving it of liberty and property, and attempt­ ing to regulate labor relations with employees engaged solely in intra­ state activities.. DECAUSE labor costs in New l j York city are too high the Charles Schweinler Press, largest •magazine printing house there,, hasdecided to close the plant in which it employs 1,000 men and women and move where costs are lower. Executives of the aompany said they did not object to the wage scales imposed by New York un­ ions, but found the differential be­tween the local scale and the rates in force elsewhere so great that it was "impossible” to continue in New York. . - When the Schweinler Press moves it will take with it an annual Dav roll of $1,750,000. Publishers of the seventy magazines printed by the company, have been notified of the impendingdosing. Among them are The-Literdry BigestandThe Nation. T TNITED STATES DISTRICT AT- U TORNEY L. C. GARNETT of Washington was asked by Vice President Garfter to present to the federal grand jury the case of six Railway Audit and Inspection com­ pany officials who failed to appear before a senate, committee some two weeks ago. Those cited by Mr. G arner were: W. W. Groves, presi­ dent of the company; w - B- Groves, vice president; Earl Douglas Rice, vice president; J. E. Blair, secre- tary-treasurer; R. S. Judge, direc­ tor, and J. C. Boyer. Thej committee, headed by Sena­ tor LijFollette, is investigating the alleged' use of labor “spies” by em­ ployers in disputes with their em­ ployees. A tthetim eofthehearing an attorney for ■ the company-told the committee an injunction was be­ ing sought in federal court to pre­ vent the officials’ appearance and to prohibit production of their rec­ ords. SZ-3%* A/IRS. RtJTH BRYAN OWEN, I ’ l now the wife of Capt. Boerge Rohde of the Danish king’s royal life guards, has resigned as Ameri­ can minister to Den­ mark in order to 'be free to campaign as a private citizen for the re - electibn of President Roosevelt, and the President has accepted her resignation. T h is w as: done in an exchange of tele­ grams, that from Mr. Roosevelt say­ ing: “While I am very loath to have you discontinue the very fine serv­ ices you have been rendering as United States minister to Denmark, I appreciate your reasons for want­ ing to resign and the-motives that prompt you. I therefore reluctant­ ly accept your resignation.” Mrs. Rohde, daughter of William Jennings Bryan, has had a long career of public service. Before entering the diplomatic service she served in the Seventy-first and Sev­ enty-second congresses, 1929 to 1933, from Florida. Captain Rohde, to whom she was married in July last, is her third husband. Ruth Owen. S IX bombs dropped from an un­ identified Spanish airplane fell perilously near the American de­ stroyer Kane, which was en route from Gibraltar to Bilbao to help in the removal of Americans from the war zone. The Kane fired sev­ eral rounds from an anti-aircraft gun at the plane. Naturally our government was roused to protest. Secretary of State Hull instructed his agents abroad to request both the Spanish government and Gen. Francisco Franco, leader of the reb­ el forces, to “issue instructions in the strongest terms” to" prevent an­ other “incident of this character.” The rebel forces in the north were making a powerful air attack on Irun, scattering many bombs on that border city, and an assault by land and sea forces was expected at any moment. The government troops there had refused to sur­ render and their officers said right­ ist prisoners, including some prom­ inent men, would be exposed in the most open places during the bombardment. The Madrid government admitted its troops had sustained an “im­ portant reverse” in a battle at Oro- pesa, 100 miles southwest of the capital and were driven back to Talavera. Later a loyalist victory at that place was claimed, though London heard the rebels had scored another victory there. The fighting in the Guadarrama mountains con­ tinued indecisively. DESOLUTIONS adopted by the American Bar association at its meeting in Boston declare firmly against any attempt to limit the power of federal courts to^pass on the constitutionality of laws. The association avoided what had been expected to be a lively debate by taking a noncommittal attitude on the - report of another committee, which denounced in great part the alleged invasion of the rights of citi­ zens by the New Deal. This report, to which there was a minority re­ port appended, was received and filed by the assembly, but not ac­ cepted, and the committee which filed it was discharged from further duty. Frederick H. Stinchfield of Minne­ apolis was unanimously elected president of the association. DERHAPS the farmers of Ameri­ ca don’t realize it, but during Ju­ ly they enjoyed the largest cash in­ come they have had since 1929. Fig­ ures given out by the Department of Agriculture show the sales of farm products brought them $711,000 000 against $582,000,000 in June and only $451,OOO1OW) in July, 1935. To their income from sales, the farmers added $24,000,000 in various forms of government benefits, bring­ ing the total cash at their disnosai to $735,000,000. Thb rental andtoth- er benefits totaled $57,000,000 to j H SlanI iR J1Uiy; i mThe sharp increase to cash farm income in July was mainly due to toe pronounced gain in income from grams, chiefly wheat.” the re! port said. “Receipts of wheat in toe principal markets to July were toe fourto largest for the m onth™ record, despite the relative* J b S supplies on farms this year “Prices of meat aninials to July Whik averaging slightly Iower t W in June, were nevertheless than in Julj?, 1935 sh .lu^ e r from meat animals' Was’ cohsMb!**6 My higher than f y e a i^ g c f tocome from dairy brodurJ s “ creased more than 8ea£ona)]y*» National Topic? Interpreted by William Bruckart National Press BulMlng_____________Washington, D. c Washington. — The Associated Press carried a dispatch from Mos- . , n , , cow a few daystSoetal D efense ago that had in Russia more to it than just the- an­ nouncement that certain opposition­ ists among the Soviet leaders were to be executed. The dispatch re­ ported that 16 confessed conspira­ tors against toe Soviet state were sentenced to death by the firing squad as toe “highest measure of •social defense” of a government. It reported a new stage to the so- called progress ‘ of Communism in toe Russian state. For toe first time since toe Bolsheviks came into power they ordered the death penal­ ty for some of the leaders who marched to the Revolution of Octo­ ber, 1917. So we have a clean sweep now of the men who sat next to the dicta­ tor, Lento; the men who were his closest advisors to council are out of the Wayi and to their place re­ mains the extensively practical and stfong-willed executive, Stalin, who has in this instance declined to al­ low theory to interfere with p condi­ tion. Here is the picture. Leon Trotsky in exile and under sentence of death if he returns into Russia. Zinoviev shot to death. Kamenev also exe­ cuted by a firing squad (he will be remembered as an outstanding pil­ lar of Bolshevism). Tomsby, a sui­ cide. Rykov, Bukahrto and Rodek under investigation by the dreadful Ogpu. A hated secret service is looking into the records of Sokokni- kov and Pyotakov. The latter two have been important advisors to Stal­ in. But what is all of this about? The answer is shtiple. While these men were charged with plotting the murder of Stalin, with conspiracy, beneath it all lies toe thirst of men for power. Through all of this since the fall of the Russian empire and the execution of Czar Nicholas, the Communists have pushed for­ ward. The strongest of them have traveled. That is the why of Stalin. Yet as most always happens under any circumstance where the will of a few men runs free, they have in­ flicted to the last degree the power that they have gathered unto them­ selves. In so doing they have not failed to reserve unto themselves such considerations as they thought necessary—a perfectly human trait of character answerable only where a whim becomes a will and there is power to carry it out. Between Stalin, who was able to enforce his will, and Trotsky, who dwelt to the starry heavens of the­ ories and dreams, there is only a theoretical difference. Each want­ ed Communism. Trotsky consid­ ered the problem in toe term s of world revolution; Stalin, thought of it as the Russian state and recog­ nized his capacity to carry his plans through in that jurisdiction. So toe Stalin-Trotsky feud, as it has turned out to be, has become .ferocious and any one who has gone contrary— even entertained thoughts contrary to the will of the mighty Stalin— committed a sin against the state. And a sin against the Russian state under Stalin means to disappear. It seems to me there is an im­ portant lesson for the American w , people to that situ-Lesson tor ation. S ta lin , Americans along with Hitler and Mussolini, is always right It m atters not what the people may desire, what their philosophy of life and living may be, how they propose to encourage or accept responsibility for, self-gov­ ernment, toe dictatorship continues. Many times in these columns I have criticized bureaucracy to the federal government. There are so many bureaucrats in Washington now that some one has bitterly de­ scribed them as locusts. It may seem quite a jump from bureauc­ racy to dictatorship but the differ­ ence actually is very small. When the people of the United States con­ cede to the federal government such rights as the federal government attempted to exercise in NRA and even to a greater extent to toe AAA, they are taking the first step to grant to a centralized government the authority toat leads to absolute control of the person and every­ thing that person does. There are conditions undoubtedly that need to be remedied before our form of government is anything like perfect. There is always to be con­ sidered changing conditions and toe changing whinis of people them­ selves. But I entertain the con­ viction that-so long as the Ameri­ can people are unwilling to accord increasing powers to toe federal government, the nation as a whole will go forward, civilization will progress and we will enjoy having a government.• • * The transfer of William C.

We receive passively the entertain­ ment afforded by the anthem, T H E N settle ourselves comfortably in our pews for the sermon, as we would give - attention to a public lecture, AND SOM ETIM ES the result is much the same. If the sermon is fresh and interesting and pleasing, we feel that the hour has been.well.-spent, but if - it beco.tpes in any way personal , touching upon the heeds, weaknesses or shortcom­ ing of the community, there is a sense of IR R ITA TIO N . We do not like to be criticised. We do not take kindly to advice. We re­ sent, exceedingly, any interference with what we consider our person al independence of. thought or ac­ tion. If the minister is wise to a- void unpopular topics, we are glad to be entertained by his eloquence; if he is something of a vaudeville performer, we go in throngs to hear him; but if-he- assumes the right as an ambassador of Tesus Christ, to courge those of us who profane the sanctury, or to pro nounce Biblical woes upon'some of our pharisaical hypocrites, even though he strives to do so with much diplomacy, we not only do not like it, but, if be persists, we stay away from church and nurse our injured feelings. Inm anycom munities the crowd will "take more” from a politician, than from the minister, not because he isn’-t capable, but because it is none of his business. We are not all thus, of course. There are those in every church who earnestly listen to the voice of God in each message from the puloit; who pray, at every wor ship hour that the speaker may be given the utterance needed; and who conscientiously apply to them­ selves the exortat'ion to holier liv­ ing. TH ESE, are they who keep these churches open, ahd who pre­ vent the life of the ministry from becoming one perpetual Gethse mane. This critical, unsympathetic at titude oh the part of congregations, is crushing out the spirit of evange­ lism in our ministry. Such a tend­ er, unselfish, loving, regenerating spirit cannot exisc unnurtured. It must be fostered and given protec­ tion. A freezing temperature is certain death to it. How then can it be kept alive in a cold materialis tic atmosphere of many of church-, es? IF a minister is no longer re­ cognized as the spiritual leader and advisfer of his people in any way, if the spirit of evangelism longer powerful in our except in theory if the Divine rea sons for bis calling are not accep table to Christian people today what, then ,is bis position? In the F,and he .usually does-this to the best personal of his ability, strength and time considered. His great ministry here cannot be said to enjoy this part of his work, aud while the con-1 stant effort to cheer those whose! spirits drain upon his own vitality- some of the most wonderfully bless;■ ed connection' with this, Acknow' ledging all thi.s, however, is it/n b t true that the- Biblical commands, to comfort the fatherless, to visit those sick and in prison, and to help those in need or in trouble, apply as much to each individual Christian as they do the minister? Why then sbjpUld this be delegated so largel^/tpi hhn ? ? ? -~:f A few have the priceless Iabijity so to win the confidence Of ^people er as a jiorse trying to pull an over­ loaded wagon uphill. In the years of my ministry, this writer has seen how completely a minister’s hands may be tied by the lack of Co operation by those who say, “ I don’t want to,” or “ I will not or " I cannot” , or "it will not work” , or " I haven’t time” or ‘ Yes I will,” but sit down and do ,nothing, or “ Get somebody else,” I have seen all this, and I have de­ cided many times that those whom God is striving to use to lead us to a higher and nobler'living seldom are given a square deal and that they are in something of a predica­ ment a ,poor struggling horse, with its feet hobbled, striving to pull a wagon- full of people of various types up a hill. I ask: Will God |>less our churches as long as we shirft our responsibilities off on the shoulders of the one who is Hts ambassador to us,- and-do n o t. even give respectful attention to His ad monitions ? ? ? In the face of all tbeee condi tions, wbich are now in existence in all christiandom —In the face of all this. Are you not led to wonder fhat a minister stays with the job? Why do they do it? Frequently they could make more, often double money in other professions. They would have shorter hours per day and have, all the other time for their own use and for the companionship of family and friends, without the fear of being accused • of loafing. Then why do they stay with the lob? It is because of his consecra that those burdened tion to Jesus CnrisLandthepassibn is no churches, or perplexed by a strangled threads of life, instinctively come to them for help and advice.

Baltimore, Sept. 10.—The Balti­ more Sun. independently Democratic newspaper for 99 years, will an nounce tomorrow morning that "in this campaign ic is unable to advocate the're-election of President Roose­ velt.” The Sun. which has supported every Democratic candidate except Bryan In 1896 and 1908, will say: “ Within 60 d®.vs the paapIe must make their choice in the presidential election. It is, therefore, incumbent upon those who undertake to address themselves to public opinion-to gi e. expression to their views. The Sun now states that in this campaign it is unable to advocate the re-election of President Roosevelt ” , The newspaper explains ".opposi­ tion to Mr. Roosevelt does not mean support .of Hooverism or of Old GuardisnT' and adds that “if Gover­ nor Landon speaks in clear and bold terms, facing specific problems and taking bis stand unequivocally on the side of this true economic liberalism, The Sun vyill support him. no matter what his prospects may be.” but, it explains, “if he does mot speak in clear terms, The Sun intends to con­ tinue to fight for ideas that it believes to be sound and in the interest of the people, and will make the beat of a situation in which it cannot advocate the election of either candidate.” At the North Pole one can not faoe in any direction but south, and in moving away from the : pole one must go south.

It is one of tbo characteristic frail­ ties of the human race that the fields beyond alwayB appear to- be the greenest. A current manifestation of this tendency comes to our atten­ tion as some of the Piedmont tobacco growers succumb to the lure of the earlier-opening border markets. Against the opportunity to secure "quick money” some weeks in ad­ vance of the scheduled opening of the markets in. the Old Belt, there are other considerations to which tobacco growers will do well to give thought if they are tempted to sell their crops outside the Piedmont markets this year. We advertise through a variety of media the fragrance and aroma of the particular type of tobacco that is grown in the Piedmont*'section and sold on the Winston-Salem market. We have sought to differentiate our particular type of tobacco as specifi­ cally desirable along frequently em­ phasized and publicized lines from other types of tobacco sold on other markets. Buyers have come to look to the Piedmont area and the Win­ ston-Salem market for certain desir­ able qualities of tobacco, as , they look to other markets for other quali­ ties. Experience has shown that when the grades for whith the Piedmont is famous are mixed with grades from other sections, the light tobacco from this area, which counts fragrance and aroma as its greatest attraction, does not show up to the best advantage against tobacco which, for example, depends upon size and color as its major selling prints. For this reason; the high prices be­ ing paid on the border markets, re­ ported in terms of averages, mas prove disappointing to the Piedmon' farmer,' who' must match his crop there against others which are being judged by the buyers on a different basis. With a short crop in our belt,. the grower raising tobacco that is regu­ larly sought and purchased on the Winston-Salem market, is bound to receive the benefit of favorable price: under tbe most desirable circumstan ces through the law of supply and demand. A careful examination of the who]- matter shows that Piedmont tobacci growers should sell their crops or the local market for their own bes< advantage.---Winston Journal. Catholics Gobble Up Nebraska Offices. Nebraska., one of the 48 states that Jim Farley announced with great gusto several weeks ago, was al­ ready “in the bag” fo r. Roosevelt seems to have crawled’ out of the bag. And there is .a -reason. Jim Far­ ley, as every one knows, is an ar­ dent Catholic and has been charged with attempting to make the United States a Catholic govei-hment. And Farley found Nebraska a fruitful field for his'; 'endeavors. There were four big federal officers to be filled in that state when Roose­ velt came into power. There was ~.a federal judge vacancy and of course a collector of internal revenue, dis­ trict attorney and U. S. Marshal to be named. Farley has filled everj single one of these .four big offices with a Cathoiic and. the Protestant ci tizenship of the state js angered through and through, And they are going to show their resentment to Catholic Boss Farley in the Novem­ ber election by voting for Honest Alf Landon. grandson of a Methodist preacher —Union Republican.

Fear Success Of The Cotton Picker. Stoneville, Miss.,—-Two farm ex ­ perts who came here to view a demonstration of a mechanical cot­ ton picker predicted that success of the machine would threaten the southern agricultural balance and "spell the end of the small. farmer. ” - Oscar Johnston, government cot ton specialist, forecast the doom of small sacle operations, a . F. Toler, his business associate on a 4 5.0 0 0 acre Mississippi, plantaticn, said “southern agriculture would be in a turmoil” if mechanized picking sup planted hand labor. Johnston came trom Washington and joined state agricultural leaders planters and cotton ginners to exam • ine the picker developed by John and Mack Rust, of Memphis, Tenn. Johnston said it might be possible to coordinate the machine and hand labor on large scale operations. “I hope the machine won’t work” said Toler, "because it would upset our present system and southern ag­ riculture would be in a turmoil in 'the future.” E C. Westbrook, Georgia cotton specialist, was not alarmed over the possible effect of the machine ■■he said "it might not displac tenant labor as much as some observers fear. I believe the two can be bo ordinated.” Mr. Minton. U S. ,Senator Sherman Minton, of Indiana, went to New York the other riajpsnd added his littie utterance to Boss Jim Farley by saying that Gov­ ernor Landon was a "phoney” Snd ’•hat "If I were a prophet I would oredict this whole Landon thing will blowup before the election.” We must confess we never heard of Sena­ tor Minton. We knew there were two nonentites rattling around in the shoes of former distinguished Sena­ tors from the Hoosier State but we never heard of Minton. It appears however, that "Phony” Landon as this Indiana swashbuckler is pleased to call him. has got the whole New Deal, outfit on the run and by the time Salt River is reachrd in Novem­ ber the old Democratic ship' will be so crowded with defeated candidates setting saij that some of them will have to be thrown overboard before she weighs anchor.

At the November eletion this fall' EveAmendments to the State Consti­ tution are-proposed to voters to be now.thinking about and discussing. - The first amendment mentioned-is one thatwould have properties listed in groups, high tax and low tax group. Oneof the small-tax rates would be put on people’s savings in banks, that yield only about 2 and one-half per cent now; and also poor or "non-productive real estate'would be classed separate from other ac­ cording to their productivity.

Last week a Republican was elected governor of Maine by a majority of 4 3 ,000 , which means that the people in that good state have had all the New Deal they can stand up under. According to the Literary Digest presidential poll it would seem that Governor Alf and Frank Knox had a fair chance of moving to Wash ington City early next January. The Digest has been right in all its previous polls. Of course the vot­ ing has juet begun, but coming events cast their shadows before. Senator Cousins, of Michigan, who claims to be a Republican, but who votes and works tor Franklin Roosevelt, seems to have got what was coming to him in the Michigan primary, held last week. The regu Iar Republican candidate has de feated this wolf in sheep’s clothing. The time has come when the Re­ publicans are going to refuse to nominate men to represent them in Congress who do everything pos­ sible to defeat their party after they are elected. There are several of these birds' running loose—Nye, Norris, Lafollette and Hi John'on. They should quit the Republican party and go where they belong It Wasn’t June. J. F. Jarvis, one of I. N.

From present indications this will be one of the best fairs ever held in Davie county It has been well ad vertised throughout this section. Crops are fairly'good despite the severe drought back in the summer and the exhibits will no doubt be large and varied. The Work Amusement Co., will furnish the attractions on the mid way. There will be plenty of riding devices, red lemonade, striped -pop corn, pink cotton candy, barbecue, and other things to eat and drink.

The contest is free to all who care to enter, regardless of where you live. All Davie county people, together with citizens from all surrounding counties and states, are given a cordial invitation to attend this big three day fair next week. National Youth Admin­ istration.

What was the aim set before us for the three months? “To lead the student to an understanding of New Testament Christianity, and to beget in him the desire and purpose to live the Christian life and to win others to faith in the Lord Jesus.” The tes]t which we apply as the twelve lessons of the past quarter pass in review is As a student, have I seen in the spread of Christianity the opera­ tion of a gospel of salvation which is the power of God for my salva­ tion? Or, if I am saved, have I been stirred to a more earnest Christian life and a real passion for the salvation of others? As a teacher, have I really used my opportunity to win the mem­ bers of my class to faith in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? Have I brought to bear on the lives of those in my class who are Christians the Word of God, stir­ ring them to holiness of life and zeal for God’s cause on earth? If we cannot reply in the af­ firmative, should we not a s k whether our efforts to teach have been largely fruitless? But let us not be discouraged, for even as we now review the lessons we have studied together the Holy Spirit is ready to do iHis . work i-and apply the truth to hearts and lives. To many teachers the prepara­ tion and presentation of the review lesson is the most difficult of any during the-quarter. To the student who has given little or nothing to the preparation of weekly lessons, it is often a rather disconnected and uninteresting recapitulation of twelve lessons. A suggested method of gathering up the essential teachings of these lessons is to group them around the following seven points: The spread of Christianity after our Lord’s departure into the glory was distinguished by the. fact that ' I. It was by the preaching of a faith that began and continued in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit. God honors such preaching and teaching in our day. 2. It was a spiritual movement that demonstrated its God-given! power by thriving o n ' persecution. One wonders whether much of the activity of the church in our day has not fallen into the doldrums of pious respectability. Perhaps, we need a little persecution. 3. It was not the propagation of theological theory or of a religious sect or party. . It was a movement of the Spirit of God which saved m en,, and- ■ saved- them to win and serve their fellow-men. T ru e Christian service is nobler and more sacrificial than any non- Christian social service. 4. It was a movement in which laymen as well as religious work- ers had a place. Philip the lay­ man served with Paul the apostle. Lay men and women let us be awake to our responsibilities and privileges. 5. Difference of opinion was not permitted to hinder God’s work. .Do we know enough to let Qod work among us, even if he does not work just as we think he should? 6. The missionary spirit of the preacher was carried over to the ~ 1’ “ a s u c c e S sio nw h ic h God has c o n tin u e d to o u r Za?-. ^ re we co-operating and helping it forward.? 7. The gospel is for all men Gentile as well as Jew whether !!p°,W, reti’.bIack> or white.

Only in Russia is the program succeeding, and there it is going over with a bang. But the Soviet measures are those of a completely communistic society, and most of them would be direct offenses to the morals of a Christian country with the type of society that we know.

While the married couples are given every advantage, the govern­ ment deliberately attempts to make life more or less difficult for the unmarried. Married men get the jobs first. And often an unmarried man under 25 years of age is forced to “exchange jobs” with a married man. This simply means that the married man gets the job and the bachelor is sent into the labor serv­ ice or “Land Help.” Large families get first call on homes and benefit from greatly reduced railroad fares.

B y E D W A R D W . P I C K A R D © W estern N ew spaper IJnloxu AdolfHitler H u n d re d s of thousands of Nazis, attending the party con­ vention in Nuremburg, were roused to great enthusiasm by a proclama- ~ —~m tion from Reichs- L f’ -^1%, ’ fuehrer Hitler to the r S1I effect th a t Ger­ many, naving re­ armed and scrapped most of the Ver­ sailles treaty, was ready to press its demand for restora­ tion of its pre-war colonies. This, he asserted, was nec­ essary to the eco­ nomic independence of Germany and would be achieved within the next four years. Said the chancellor: “It is regrettable that the rest of the world fails to understand the na­ ture and greatness of our task. If a certain British politician declares Germany needs no colonies as she may buy her raw materials, then this remark is about as bright as that of the Bourbon princess who, when she saw a mob crying for bread, wondered why—if the people had no bread—they did not eat cake. “If Germany had not, for fifteen years, been squeezed dry and cheat­ ed of her entire international sav­ ings; if she had not lost her entire foreign holdings; if, above all, she still possessed her colonies, we could much more easily master the difficulties.” Then, addressing the convention directly, the fuehrer launched a new campaign against bolshevism and the Jews. "Bolshevism seeks to exterminate governments based on a community of race and blood and replace them by non-Aryan Jewish element of no race,” Hitler warned. “Sooner or later sovietistic authority states will end in anarchy, since Jewish • ele­ ments possess only despotic facul­ ties, never organizing reconstruc­ tive ones. “The rock of foundation of the state is an authoritarian will. Un­ limited individual liberty leads to anarchy. AU states have experi­ enced the destructive effects of de­ mocracy.” p OLLOWING closely upon the vis- *■ it to France of Gen. Rydz-Smigly of Poland, ITrapce .Polfind signed a military treaty of friend­ ship. It was reported, too, that France had agreed to lend 800,000,- 000 francs for completion of Po­ land’s new railroad linking the Si­ lesian coal fields with the port of Gdynia, rival of the Free City of Danzig. Josef Beck, Polish foreign min­ ister, told B^rihTthe- lFrdnco4Polish accord would have no effect on friendly relations with Germany; but nevertheless there was consid­ erable anxiety in Warsaw concern­ ing Germany’s reaction. DACK at his desk after an illness of six months, Secreterj of the Navy Claude A. Swanson im­ mediately made an announcement that will be of deep interest to Japan. The annual fleet maneuvers, which la s t M Fy were shifted to the Canal Zone as a concilia­ tory gesture to Ja­ pan, will be -held next year in North Pacific and Hawai­ ian waters, and probably the Tokio „ ■press w ill yelp “**• Swanson again. With the announcement Sec. Swanson asserted Japanese plans to retain overage submarines and de­ stroyers involve a “violation” of the London and Washington naval trea­ ties,‘which are to expire December 31 by Japanese abrogation. He fol­ lowed up his charge with the state­ ment that the United States has completed plans for two new battle-, ships and is prepared to begin con­ struction ‘at a moment’s notice.” The fleet maneuvers, officially designated as “fleet proolem No. 18,” will be held during late May and early June. The area of opera­ tions, it was indicated, will be the triangle between the Aleutian Is- lands, Hawaii, and Seattle, where the fleet problem of 1935 vas con­ ducted. Vessels and planes prob­ ably will work as far west is the Wake Islands. Armament of the new battleships is at present limited to 14 inch guns, but Admiral William H. Standleyi chief of naval operations, said frankly that if Japan does not agree to this limitiatioh by next April, “the sky is the iirpit.” .. AMERICAN dairymen are pro- ** testing, vainly' to Secretary of State Hull against' the Teciprbcal trade treaty with Brazil which* they assert, is seriously injuring the in­ dustry by encouragement of the manufacture of imitatis butter. Under the treaty, Brazilian babassti ou,' unknown in United States mar- kets*$rior to 1935, now is: being used at the rate of more than a million pounds a month for manufacture of a butter substitute. Mr. Hull referred the protests to Assistant Secretary Sayre, who pointed out that the provision for free importation of the nut and oil was authorized by congress in the trade agreement act of 1934. He added that the success of the pro­ gram was of vital interest to the American dairy farmer, “who has more to gain from the re-establish* ment of prosperous domestic mar­ kets for his products through the restoration of an abundant foreign trade than by a policy of excluding even the most remotely competitive products.” T HERE was glee in government circles when it was announced that the United States treasury of­ fering of $914,000,000 in 20 to 23- year two and three fourths per cent bonds dated September 15 was oversubscribed nine times. Of course those who are informed know that the reason is the banks, in­ surance companies and other in­ vestment institutions are glutted with money for which they have been seeking profitable employment. Of the treasury’s latest offering $400 ,000,000 of bonds is to raise new cash and $514,000,COO is to provide for the exchange of 1.5 per cent notes maturing September 15. . H UNDREDS of delegates, from many nations, were present when the third World Power con­ ference opened in Washington, with President J u liu s Dorpmueller in the c h a ir . Prospects were good for a use­ ful discussion of the problems connected with the industry, but; discord crept in early ■ In the pro­ ceedings. At a round table debate on pub­ lic regulation and ownership of utili­ ties, M. P. David­ son, representing Mayor FiorelIo La Guardia of. New- York, said the only way to reduce electric rates is by threatening pub­ lic ownership. Three prominent pri­ vate utility men promptly “took a walk,” and John C Dalton, man­ ager of the County of London'Elec­ tric‘Supply,' criticized Davidson's; talk as a “tirade." _ The discussion started in connec­ tion with a paper by John E. Zim­ merman, president of the United Gas Improvement. company, who held that power “yardsticks" such as the TVA and Boulder Dam can­ not be compared with private utili­ ties, unless operating - qonditiqns are similar. Such yardsticks, IVe said,' will lead to competitive methods already proved “wasteful and un­ satisfactory.” In papers taking the opposite view, Prof. WiSiam E. Mosher of Syracuse university, and James C. Bonright of the New York State Power Authority, held that public competition with private companies is “indisputable evidence” of de­ clining faith in regulation. J tillu s D o r p m u e lle r A CCORDING to the New York Times, whose dispatches from Washington are usually most reli­ able, President Roosevelt is consid­ ering for submission to congress, in event of his re-election, a far-reach- ing-' pilan of governmental1 reorgani­ zation. The plan possibly would in­ volve, the Times stated, the con­ solidation or abolition of some, of the major departments and bu­reaus. ‘Whatever the President finally proposes,” the Times said, “one may hear in informed quarters now that the regular cabinet posts might be decreased ...” A possibility, the Times stated, would be consolidation of the army, navy and air corps in a department of national defense. '* “The 1 administration proposes to: follow a definite policy of curtailing or dismantling emergency units that have outrun their usefulness,” the paper continued. p* RANCF’S government has de­ cided that conditions in Europe are so threatening that it must spend a huge sum for national defense. So it adopted a progran. tor in­ creasing the efficiency of the army which will cost $930,000,000 in the fiext four years.-TKetfrdiwsalwas made by Edouard Daladier, min­ ister of defense. The first install­ ment of $280,000,000 will be dis­bursed in 1937. The program calls for an in­ tensive increase ot mechanized units aiid also tor" rearmament. Furthernaiore1 it provides an in­ crease in the size of the professional army ana the creatio. of a special­ized.group of long service, noncom­ missioned officers such as already exist in the Fiench navy. The . program also provides Ioi strengthening the frontier forUfica tions. But the chief improvement will be made in the air force which will be increased by 2,000 planes. . F IERCE attacks by the Spanish rebels resulted in the capture of Iron, on the French border, and the defenders were mercilessly slaughtered save for those who were able to take refuge in France. The town was reduced to smoking, ruins, and the victors promptly _ started an advance westward against San Sebastian, their main objective in the north. Recognizing the f a c t that this large resort city could not long be defended, the government administration there offered to sur-. render the place if full amnesty were promised; but declared if this were refused the city would be burned to the ground and the 625 fascist prisoners held there would be shot. There was great discord among the defenders, the anarch­ ists insisting on destroying the city anyhow.- \ Then the Basque nationals took a hand, assuming control of the city and sending a lot of the an­ archists to Bilbao. This move re­ sulted in a virtual armistice while negotiations for surrender of the city went forward. Later it was reported that the rebel forces had rejected the terms of surrender, and shelling of the city began. Kie civilian inhabitants were fleeing in panic. South of Madrid the government forces were said to have made progress and there were claims that Talavera had been taken and that the Alcazar in Toledo was practical­ ly battered to pieces by loyalist artillery. The rebels’ advance on Madrid from the south and west was supposed to have been halted. The Madrid government was re­ organized and Francisco Largo Ca­ ballero, left wing Socialist, was made premier. French workers in Paris In a great demonstration insisted that the government abandon its non­ intervention policy and give active aid to the Spanish government. Premier Blum, while not conceal­ ing his sympathy with the Madrid crowd, declared that if France dropped neutrality, Italy and Ger­ many would be able to give the Spanish rebels much speedier and more effective aid than the French could give to the loyalists. Representatives of, twenty-, four powers were scheduled to confer in London on plans for the establish­ ment of a nonintervention control committee. Portugal, however, was still holding out C REWS of two Portuguese war­ ships mutinied and decided to take the vessels --to the aid of ..the Spanish government forces at Mal­ aga or Valencia. As the ships started to leave their buoys the shore batteries opened fire. Twelve of the mutineers were killed and twenty wounded, and the others speedily gave in. The Lisbon gov­ ernment said the men were unde? the influence of communist propa* ganda. S ENATOR GEORGE W. NORRIS Of-Nebraskat-Republlcah,'-' W boi said he wished to retire from public life, is a candidate for re-election in spite of himself. A petition plac­ ing him on the ticket was filed by more than forty thousand of .his friends, and only one thousand^ sig­ natures were necessary. Mr. Norria is seventy-five years old. Chairman Farley of the Democratic party Said the filing of the NorTis petitionrnade him “very happy.” ;• Gov. Eugene Talmadge of Geor­ gia, severe critic of the New Deal, was defeated for nomination I as United States senator by the pres­ ent incumbent, Richard B. Russell. Ir Washington state Gov. Clarehce D. Martin was renominated by the Democrats and former Gov. R; H. Hartley was named by the Repub­ licans. Gov. Ed C. Johnson of Colo­ rado captured the Democratic nom­ ination for senator and will be .'op­ posed by R. L. Sauter, Republican. Arizona Democrats refused renomi- nation to Gov. B. B. Moeur, select­ ing in s te a d R. C. Stanford of Phoenix. In Connecticut' the Re­ publicans . nominated ,< Arthur M. Browii for' governor. U EROIC actions and dramatic A rescues marked the collision of the excursion steamer Romance and the steamship New York iii a dense fog ten miles off Boston, Mass. The Romance sank in twen­ ty minutes, but every passenger and member of the crew was taken safely aboard the New York. The rescued numbered 268, most of the passengers being women and Chil­ dren from Greater Boston. The Kpyr .York then turned- back : into Boston harbor with a twelve foot hole in her bow. There was. no panic aboard the Romance, and the officers and crews of both vessels displayed discipline and bravery that elicited high praise. TULIANA, crown princess of the J Netherlands, has found her fu­ ture husband in a German prince, Bernhard zur Lippe-Biesterfeld. The announcement of their betrothal was? hailed in the Haegue vwithj. ut­ most joy. Juliana, who is twenty- seven, is beloved for her jollity and good humor, and also she has been carefully trained for the throne. Prince Berah&rd, twenty-five years old, has been:working for the Ger­ man dye trust. M RS. BERYL MARKHAM of England put her name on the roll of'fame as the first' woman to make a solo .flight across the north Atlantic from east; to west.

Washington N a t i o n a l T o p ic s I n t e r p r e t e d By W lL L lA M BRUCKART NATIONAL PRESS BLDG. WASHINGTON, D. C ij Washington.—The Department of Commerce has lately released its annual “w o r ld Trae E conom ic Re- Picture view,” and again has painted offi­ cially a picture of general condi­ tions that I believe to be the most accurate obtainable under present chaotic conditions. I might add that it is one of the few official analyses coming out from the government these days that is not colored in any manner or form. . The reason this review is so in­ teresting is because it points out what can be expected to happen by a disclosure in detail of what has happened in commerce and indus­ try. To that extent it delivers a rather definite body blow at some New Deal policies affecting busi­ ness. Since it does this sort of thing, the review is entitled to more faith and credit than usually is ac­ corded government publications, whether compiled by the Roosevelt administration or those before it. Political leaders always want to put their best foot forward and the New Deal under Mr. Roosevelt has not failed to carry on this tradition to the fullest possible extent. The section of the “World Eco­ nomic Review” that was most in­ teresting to me contained this state­ ment: “Deficits of great magnitude cre­ ated yearly during the depression to meet payments of wages, salaries, interest and dividends sapped the vitality of the entire business struc­ ture and could not have been sus­ tained indefinitely.” Here then is an official declara­ tion from that agency of the govern­ ment most concerned with com­ merce and industry which says that corporations and employers of labor maintained as far as they were able the payrolls and interest pay­ ments during the depression. It says likewise that had corporations failed to do this, our unemployment: problem would have been much greater, the income of those who hold securities, whether in large or small amount, would not have re­ ceived dividends on their stocks or interest on the' bonds and, as a result, it is obvious the buying-pow­ er of the country as a whole would have been sharply reduced. That is to say, had these payments both to labor and capital, been curtailed ,there would have been, even a,lower ■level* of retail ' business than o b ­ tained during the depression. It ought to be added as well that had a lower level of business resulted, the manufacturing industric« from which the retail stores buy their supplies would have closed down their plants in even greate> num­ ber than they did. As. we look back over the last five or.six years .it, is easy-.- to .see .how^ things could have been very much worse. It is easy to recognize that the strength that conies from amassing capital in corporation form has developed in this country one of -the greatest shock absorb­ ers that any people may have when, those corporations, those busi­ nesses, are permitted to develop under sound management and with as -little governmental interference as the general public welfare will perm it Now, as to the reason why these businesses were able to accomplish the things they did: The answer*is simple. Managements of businesses must follow the same practices in guiding the financial affairs of. those businesses as you or I do in the management of our personal af­fairs. • • • This brings Tis to a point of cur­ rent interest. In preparing for the RaiayDav 311nainy uay business, whether Fund great or small, . . laJfS aside a cer- EfScentaee, of its Profits. This is called a surplus. The surplus is invested. It is made to yield a re­ turn in the form of interest or divi- l en1sy i t isrsadom touched, it is treated just as you and I would treat our savings accounts—just as dull business, p r o i f e K .w S i of the time when we must live on our own fat so to speak, does M tHnH 11« _ _f 9 .yW DOfcftmi us without a r e s ^ e that is what a surplus is. oecaiJse ana of the life insurance' nies through the IastsixyearsS bw definitely how manH S K F t f I w sand^ of-peoPle had on^ at surplus just as the D e p H ^ t a P s y s s i K i& & ’ZSSSSStjF& m debte te e 5O1T f s ^ e a chaU tauqufle^ legislation that was e n a c te d ^ ti!0 last session of SnTress * driven through under the l L h If President Roosevelt after it conceived by a buncV £ - d i- l* who constitute the maioritv $ ^ so-called brain trust at Washington. That law levies a new tax on corporations. It does not touch us as individuals except indirectly. The tax applies to surplus, to the sav­ ings-of business, a savings designed to meet just such conditions as those through which we have gone and which business was able to meet because heretofore it had been permitted to pile up reserves to car­ ry it through the rainy day. Official figures from the Depart­ ment of Commerce show that the payments for wages, salaries, in­ terest and dividends from 1930 to 1934 amounted to $21,288,000,000. In 1935, according to incomplete fig­ ures, business paid out $1,500,000,000 for these same purposes, thus mak­ ing the total for five years approxi­ mately $23,000,000,000. Now, in normal times these fig­ ures would not prove exciting. Un­ der present circumstances and those through which we have been passing, they border on the sensa­ tional. This is true because these payments have been made, not from the earnings of the businesses during the years in which they were paid, but from earnings of earlier good years when a part of the prof­ its were laid aside as a protection. It would seem therefore that since business has performed a social service of this kind under its own management that it ought to be al­ lowed to continue. I am convinced that it is a much safer method than to have the federal government mess around through- laws such as the tax on surpluses for it must be remembered that under the law which I have criticized, no corpora­ tion can build up again such sur­ plus as has happened in the past. ■ I might mention further that the effect of this law is going to be to prevent small corporations from ev­ er growing large. I mean by that, if a. corporation, through careful .management and frugal savings, was. able . to . expand-its plant facili­ ties, increase its production and thereby increase the number of workers it employs, it will be un­ able to do so.. It will be unable to accomplish this for the reason that the operation of this tav law pre­ vents tit from storing its savings. The law takes such a heavy toll of any stored-up earnings that no cor­ poration can afford to store them up. They must be passed out in dividends during the year they are earned or- else the'govemment-puts its tax hand into the business treasury. One might say that such a distri­ bution is helpful and undoubtedly in the cases of some owners of se­ curities it is helpful. But questions of this kind must be treated in the whole and not on the basis of isolat­ ed cases. Consequently, it takes no stretch of the imagination tosee how a business is forced to' distribute its earnings, to distribute them in good times when a comparatively small number of its security own­ ers need the funds—and the result Is obviously a shortage of reserve for that rainy 4ay. In other words, a corporation is compelled to be a spendthrift or else pay a tax that is designed as a punishment. * • • There Is another phase of these payments by businesses that de­ serves attention. The dividend pay­ ments, in- fact, many of the earn­ ings reports of business lately have .shown a decidedup-ium .. Thic cir­ cumstance has prompted Democrat­ ic Chairman Farley and Attorney gen eral Cummings to enthuse somewhat about business recovery. Each of them insist in recent politi­ cal statements that prosperity ac­ tually is here; that it is not “just around the comer,’* as Mt. Hoover once predicted-while he was presi­dent. But there should be some atten­ tion paid to the meaning of the divi­ dend payments and increased earn- mgs. ^ They should be analyzed. „ .Jf ltr^e some- industries/ like the automobile industry; for ex- ample, have increased production beyond the hope of any students of economics and that they have re­ stored to their payrolls a consid­ erable percentage ojE Ae workers they once employed. Some other industries likewise have frioved for­ ward and promise to get on their fin*? agJfln £ soW d fashion. Yet I find a number of authorities in thebusiness mrn-M -.1.- .. / .. Show Upturn n' Butnonnes in SufK *? H F* w h 0 continue to be doubtful. They fear that the .founds- tion is not sound. FarW® ikcJ 3S ive n°t deterred Mt.Mf- Cummings from shouting from the house-tops that ProsPW ty, resulting from Roosevelt policies.

Mr. Roosevelt had held an early morn­ ing conference with three of his t&x Gxp6rts. Leaders of the New Deal party were jubilant. They regarded as. providential such an announcement at a point in the national campaign when the-voters were expressing alarm about the tax burden. But there was a fly in the syrup. The newspaper correspondents were only mildly impressed. Some of them even confessed that they de­ tected a familiar ring in the an­ nouncement. They recalled that the same thing had been said early in 1935 and again early in 1936. Tax- relief had been promised by candi­ date Roosevelt even as far Tiack as 1932. Yet, as a matter of fact, the annual tax burden has been in­ creased 2,000 millions of dollars un­ der the New Deal, with tax rates that have been boosted to the high­ est point in the country’s history. The Government will collect up­ wards of 6,000 millions from tax­ payers in the fiscal year 1937. It will spend an estimated 9,308 mil­ lions. Without new or additional taxes the Administration will have to borrow more than 3,000 millions. The First Promise. Mr. Roosevelt made a pledge to reduce taxes in his campaign speech at Sioux City, Iowa, ’on September ■29, 1932. He said: "I shall use this position of high responsibility (the Presidency) to discuss up and down the country in all seasons, at all times, the duty of reducing taxes, of increasing the ef­ ficiency of Government, of cutting out the underbrush around our gov­ ernment structure, of getting the' most public service for every dollar paid by taxation. This I pledge you, and nothing I have said in the campaign transcends in importance this covenant with the taxpayers of this country.” The special session of Congress called ,by President Roosevelt after his inauguration approved im­ portant new tax measures. These were signed by Mr. Roosevelt. The new laws levied taxes on non-intox- .icating liquors, processing taxes un­ der AAA (much of which were paid .by consumers), a capital stock tax, excess profits tax, tax on dividends and taxes included in NRA. Other temporary taxes were extended and certain tax regulations were stiff­ ened. It was announced at the White House on March 30, 1934 that Con­ gress would not be asked to in­ crease taxes to finance veterans’ legislation enacted over the Presi­ dent’s veto. The Revenue Act of 1934, howev­ er, made-important changes in the Federal tax system. Surtaxes were •made applicable to a lower level of income.' Extensive changes were made in taxes affecting corpora­ tions. Estate and gift taxes were increased. The rate on distilled •liquors was raised. In addition mis­ cellaneous taxes included a new capital stock tax and revision of the .excess profits tax. What Happened in 1935. j In his message to Congress on ‘January 8, 1935 Mr. Roosevelt said Tie did “not consider it advisable at jthis time to propose any new or ad- 'ditional taxes.” ' Fivemonths laterhesenlanother ■message to Congress in which he made “a number, of suggestions of important changes in our-policy of taxation.’’ The Revenue Act of 1935 was the- result. Increases ' were •made in taxes on large individual •and corporation incomes, excess !profits, capital stock and estates. In his budget message to Con­ gress on January 3, 1936 Mr. Roose­ velt said: “The state of national recovery is such that receipts from prevail­ ing tax sources on the basis of the present rates appear adequate for Ifinancuig the ordinary operations of the Govermqent in 1937" including service on the public debt; and no new or additional taxes are pro­ posed.”tfwenty-six days later Mr. Roose­ velt announced' that bonus legisla­ tion, and the AAA decision had made Si necessary to provide new reve­ nues. On March 3, 1936 he asked for $120 ,000,000 for the first year’s amortization of obligations under the bonus act and $500,000,00Q to finance his new farm program. The public had been forewarned of these new burdens, but the people were not prepared for a revolutionizing of the fax system. Congress passed ■the Tteosevelt act faxing the sav­ ings of corporations, big and little. TMs was' widely criticized- as an­ other attack on business. The Administration now says “No new taxes for >1937”. Time will tell. As a matter of fact there has been an upward revision of taxes' in each of the last four years. Again the question arises, “Why not cut expenditures?” " Heavy as ':the New Deal tax burden has be­ come it lags far behind New Deal spending. Either there will be new or addi­ tional taxes in 1937 or there will be more borrowing on a huge scale. NewDeaISeeks Greater Powers Administration Effort to Cen­ tralize Authority Analyzed. There are three distinct phases of the New Deal effort to set up a cen­ tralized government at Washington as a substitute for the traditional system provided by the Constitu­ tion. First there is the effort to encroach upon fields heretofore re­ served to the'states and thus gradu­ ally take over the functions of local self-government. Second there is the effort to regiment and control the activities of individuals and bus­ inesses under the guidance of Fed­ eral bureaucrats. Third there is the attempt to consolidate Federal pow­ er in the hands of the executive branch of -the Government at the expense of ,Congress. All three of these tendencies are exemplified in many New Deal laws, a considerable part of which have been held unconstitutional by the Courts. The manifestations of the third phase of this movement have been listed and analyzed in a pamphlet issued recently by the American Liberty League. The League drew a fourteen count in­ dictment of this feature of the New Deal as follows: 1. Legislative power far beyond any in the past has been delegated to the executive branch of the Gov­ ernment in more than a dozen im­ portant laws, virtually all of which, except as nullified by the Supreme Court, remain in effect. 2. Control of industry, agricul­ ture and the monetary system have been attempted by executive agen­ cies along lines uncharted by stat­ ute. 3. Ddegation of legislative power to the Executive has even invaded fields reserved to the States under the Constitution. 4. The Supreme Court has been emphatic in condemnation of the un­ restricted delegation of legislative power in such instances as have reached a final adjudication. 5. More than 1,500 Executive or­ ders with the force of law have been issued by the President. 6. As many as 50 new agencies and bureaus have been created by Executive order to meet emergency •onditions, and more than half-of Ciem are still in active operation although New Deal spokesmen de­ clare the emergency has passed.

A huge new payroll, largely ex­ empt from civil service and includ­ ing many important officials for whom no Senate confirmation is re­ quired, has been established by ex­ ecutive authority. 9. Enormous sums, greater than twice the entire annual cost of the Government before the depression, have been available, to the Presi­ dent to spend at will for public W o rk 3 and work relief. 10. New projects of an unprece­ dented character, visionary and im­ practical, have been entered upon by the Executive without submis­ sion to Congress. II. Shocldng wastes of public money have taken place, notably in the Passamaquoddy and Florida SMp Canal projects initiated by the President and finally stopped by Congress. 12. Political considerations have figured, in allotments for relief and public works and in the distribution jobs. 18. Thousands of administrative orders, with the same force of law at Executive orders, have been is­ sued by officials to whom the Presi­ dent has redelegated power. 14. Executive power has been used for experimentation with the­ ories neither sanctioned by Con­ gress nor approved by • authorities most competent to pass judgment. One of the conclusions reached by the Iieague was: - “Obliteration of the constitutional dividing lines between coordinate branches lays the foundation for a potential dictatorship;” ShelterbeIt Abandoned; Dream Cost-$2,500,000 ^ Another spectacular Ndw Deal experiment Was tossed Into the dis­ card when it was decided to aban­ don the Roosevelt idea of shelterbelt of , trees reaching from Canada to Texas. The $75,000,000 project was announced in July, 1934. and $2,500,000 had been spent on it up to June, 1936.; Congress re­ fused even to appropriate $1,000,000 more in the agricultural bill to carry on a study of the scheme. The object of the shelterbelt idea was to conserve the soil and soil moisture and to protect home­ steads and crops from dry sum­ mers and cold winters. It had been proposed to make the belt 1,000 miles long and 100 miles . wide. The belt 'was to. have tra- i versed North and South Dakota Nebraska, Kansas,' Oklahoma' and into northern Texas.'

They are referring, as you may or may not have guessed, to prosperity. Prosperity, indeed! There were 10 ,000,000 unemployed when the New Deal three add a half years ago first promised to end unemployment. There are still 10.000.000 unemploy­ ed. In July, 1933. there were less than 4,000.000 families and indivi­ duals on relief. In March of the present year the re were over 5,000,- 000 —a total of nearly 20 ,000 .000 .per* sons or nearly a sixth of the nation. Prosperity may be here, but if you are unemployed, or on relief, try and get it!—Chicago Daily News. Notice To Creditors. H a v in g q u alified a s A d m in istra to r of th e e s ta te o f M rs.

Will our ministers side step the liquor evil, or will they resolve to win a great victory, for humanity and the Kingdom?

If the Chris tian forces are to-win; there is work to be done. W’hy allow the evil forces to padlock the preaching and permit their evil work to advance? If something is not done, we will soon be right where Russia is today.

RATLEDGiE. The Absentee Ballot. North Carolina will never have a fair, honest election as long as the absentee ballot law is in vogue. Ab- seetee voting is one of the most un­ fair things that any state can prac tine. We noticed that in one pre cinct Mr. McDonald rechived twenty votes in the first primary and Mr. Hoey. received none. In th e second primary Mr Hoey received twenty and Mr. McDonald none. Now there is something peeuliar about.thie. We believe the working class of people prefer Mr. McDonaI for gov­ ernor, and if they could vote as they would like to and if absentee voting were .not allowed, and if honest coun­ ting at the polls were pracsiced, he would probably be elected. We are confident that tht. great majority of North Carolinians are opposed to the unfair sales tax, and would vote if out, but the money powers, manu­ facturers and head-knockers are for Mr. Hoey, and the absentee ballet counts in his favor, therefore pre­ dict that he ;will be elected unless the votes who are sick and tired of the Way things are going to turn their votes in favor of Mr. Gilliam Gris­ som, the Republican nominee ' for governer, and a fine man. Itis possible, in absentee, voting;1 to vote tbe dead, or :even make' up fake names, or pull off all kinds of crookedness. I believe every voter in the State of North Carolina who wants fair elections is opposed to ab­ sentee voting, while those who want to win, regardless of bow it is done, Want absentee voting: We predict thnt if Mr._Hoey is elected governor North Carolina in November we shall not obtain hot only retain the 'sales tax, but that-it will go higher, in all probablity, and taxation in general will increase. Mr. Hoey is "!''great orator, we admit, but that doesn’t put money in the pockets of the poor,1 hard-working, toiling class' of people with which to pay tbeir un­ just taxes and feed and clothe: their hungry children. What the people of North Carolina want and heed is some,relief from.tbeirburdens that tbe_ ungodly politicians.-have piled upon; them like mountains.

Democratic Taxation. We are tailed on our clothing, our meat and otir bread, On our carpets and dishes, our table and bed; On our tea and our c< ffee, our fuel and jights, And we are taxed so severely we can’t sleep o’nights. We are stamped on our mortgages, checks, notes and bills, On our deeds, on our contracts and on our last wills; And the star-spangled banner In mourning doth wave. O’er the wealth of the nation turned into the grave. We are taxed on our offices, our stores and our shops. On our stoves, on our barrels, on our brooms and our mops; On our horses and cattle, and if we should die. We are taxed on our coffins in which we must lie. -J- lVe are taxed on our goods by kind Providence given, ^ e are taxed on the Bible that points us to heaven; And when we ascend to the heavenly goal.

S • ps WS-Ii 53 Taxes On Your Loul Cf Bread. ^ Reference in his Buffalo speech by | Governor Landon of the big tax the housewife pays on a loaf , of bread • brings to mind that tbe bread tax is ' t not only big invisible tax paid to;_a - wasteful, extrs^^:::;S:^>j/ ginf government. The cost of government at the pre­ sent time, according to the best es- : timates, takes more tian 29 per cent of the national income. In other ~:' words, if we work five weeks, the . - proceeds of only four weeks works is ' retained by us. '"The money paid us v ; for the other week goes to the gov­ ernment. Only a small part of this money is taken from us in direct taxes. The greater part filters its way into gov- rnm tnt coffers through “hidden” . >r inci ect taxes. It is a msj Jr item in the ciist of living. Bread provides an excellent ex­ ample of this. No commodity is more necessary. Yet each loaf of bread you buv represent 53 differ­ ent taxes paid. Some of these taxes are paid hy the farmer, some by the flour mill, some by ihe bakery. Every one of tht-m has added to the cost of that loaf of bread. ~ During the past three years the American people have paid $100.- 000,000 more for bread than they would have paid had its price stayed ed-constant. Taxationwas not the sole cause of the rise—out it was a patent influence. What is true of bread, is true of mea . shoes, automobiles, furniture —anytning and everything you use. Think of taxation in this way—as a tning that hits you directly in the pocketfonk whenever you spend/a nickel—and you’ll realize what a re­ duction in the cost of government would mean to every person in the United States—Union Republican.

All young ladies who will enter the beauty contest, are requested to re­ gister their names at the fair booth between the hours of 10 a. m., and 3 p. tn., Thursday. Fair Opens Today? The seventh annual Davie Coun­ ty Fair opens today. Wednesday, Sept. 30 th. Many exhibits have been placed, and the fair officials announce that everything is in readiness for this big annual event Thousands of people from Davie and adjoining counties will no doubt visit the fair between now and the closing night, which Is Friday. A cordial welcome is extended every body to visit this big event. It will be well worth the time. Plen­ ty of amusements, with fine farm The Winston Journal says Maine Republicans have nothing to brag about this year, as they elected their U. S. Senator by only 5,000 majori­ ty. Seems to us that the Journal forgot to mention the fact that the Republicans not only elected their Senator but also elected three Con­ gressmen this year instead of one, and also elected their Governor by more than 43.000 majority. Maine went almost solid democratic two and four years ago. Seems to us that the Republicans couldn’t have done better unless they had wanted to act hoggish. Notice To Farmers. The directors of the Davie County Soil Conservation Association have set Saturday, October, 17, 1936 as the final date for accepting work sheets with respect to the Soil Con servation Program for 1936. The committeemen who filled oat these work sheets for interested per< sons in the spring will continue to do so until th final date. Work sheets will also be accepted in the county office until the closing date. Supervisors havealmost completed checking compliance and from the recordB in the county office over 95 per cent of the producers are in line for payment. The payments will probably average better than $50 00 per farm. The work sheet covers the farm for 1936 only and no obliga­ tions are placed on the person sub­ mitting the work sheet. Persons intending to file, work­ sheets should do so on or before October 17,1936 R. R. Smithwick, County Agent. Surprise Birthday.

The tobacco market in the Twin City will open on Monday, Oct. 5 th, aud Davie tobacco growers were given a special invitation to sell their tobacco in that city. We were glad to have these boosters with us. Cheaper Water In Moeksville. Mr. Editor:—I want to enter tny protest 1 0 the excessive water charges in behalf of the poor people of Moeksville. I was informed by a resident of Winston-Salem a short while ago that it was 66 cents in Winston, and we are charged $1.25 or $15 00 per year for a necessity of life that never was intended to be charged for. I was informed more than a year ago, that there was on the tax books, of the town more than one thousand dollars for water un­ paid for. Mo wonder the poor peo' pie are asking for help, when they are overcharged for water. If a poor man has placed a few hundred dollars on savings account in bank, the interest will not pay tbe County and town taxes. Instead of his money increasing to help him feed and clothe his family it gets less every year, yet the machine rools on and flattens out the helpless poor Somefamiliesnot a hundred miles from town, are living off the tax­ payers money, in some form or other; yet the Bible tells us not ‘To Grind The Face Of The Poor.” Their feces are being ground in Moeksville. Don’t they realize that if the poor people cannot buy pay for Water. Are they keeping up the price of water in order to make those who pay, not only pay for what they use, but for those who won’t or cannot pay? It’s time for the-forgottin man to be thought of in Moeksville. E .H . MORR|S. Special Services At New Union. Rev. Lnuie A.

Hideyo Noguchi, who gave his life to fight yellow fever in Africa, will inspire many men. He was born of a proud, warlike race, intensely self- centered, for 2,000 years a hermit people. The loyalty of a Japanese was to family, clan, above all to the emperor representing his race. The rest of the world was nothing to him. Born one generation after Japan opened her doors to the world, No­ guchi felt the new spirit of the times. He was loyal to family, clan, emperor, race; but he was devoted chiefly to all human kind. From boyhood to the last, through poverty and many perils, he studied how to wipe out disease. He dis­ covered the germ of yellow fever, developed serums to prevent the fever or cure it, led in the work that has driven it out of America and will soon put an end to it throughout the world. Yellow fever killed countless mil­ lions of all peoples. Noguchi’s skill and devotion have saved the lives of millions, too many to estimate, most of them foreigners to whom his forefathers would have paid no attention, calling them hei-min, or no-folks. Noguchi’s self-sacrifice to human welfare sets an example that is sure to be followed. Perhaps, in time, most men will see that it is better to help one another than to kill or even rob one another. It is said the Hackensack Indians sold to the white men for so many bars of lead, and some finery, worth altogether $700, land on which now stands the entire city of Newark, N. J., and a great deal of land be­ yond. . The poor Hackensack chief, with his $700, couldn’t buy today enough land for a tight grave at the corner of Broad and Market streets in New­ ark. Land goes up wonderfully. Doctors at Kansas City report that birth control information so much discussed does little good to the poor, and has caused an “alarm­ ing slump in . child bearing among educated families.” That is how reform works, usu­ ally. But since 90 per cent of hu­ man beings worth while come from poor families, providence may be working in its usual mysterious way. G Klov PAatures Syndicate, lac.* W NV Service.

V/tAINE, the “barometer” state, I-VI js back in the Republican column at least so far as its state ticket is concerned. The G. O. P. captured the United States senator- ship, the governorship and three congressional seats. Senator Wal- 'ace H. White, Republican, defeated Gov. Louis J. Brann, who sought to unseat him. Lewis O. Barrows, Republican, won the governorship by a substantial majority over F. Harold Dubord, Democrat. The vote cast broke all records for size and interest in the election was intense. The state had been visited by both President Roosevelt, as he returned from his vacation cruise,' and Gov. Alf M. Landon, the Republican Presidential nomi­ nee, who made speeches there only a few days ago. Colonel Knox, vice presidential candidate on the Re­ publican ticket, also had canvassed the state. Brann, who was elected governor in 1932 and re-elected two years later, was the first Democrat to hold that office in Maine and was personally popular. White was elected senator in 1930 after ten years in the house. S ECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE WALLACE has approved the new $10 ,000,000 seed corn loan pro­ gram of the AAA. The government will advance farmers two types of loans on seed corn stored on the farm. Advances of $1.75 a bushel will be made to farmers on 1,000 ,- 000 bushels of selected corn. The government will have the option of buying this corn at $3.50 a bushel up to April I, 1937. The second type of loan permits advances of 55 cents a bushel on “good quality and properly stored cribbed com which can. be sorted for seed at a later date.” On the latter type of loan the government retains the right to purchase the collateral at $1.50 a bushel until April I next. _ It is understood the Reconstruc­ tion Finance corporation has agreed to advance up to $10 ,000,000 under the loan program. The loans will be made to farmers through the Commodity Credit corporation. The interest rate on the new loans will be 4 • per - cent, the- same as was in effect under the old com loan program. P EDERAL government help in controlling their business has been asked by two large sections of the tobacco industry. The Retail Tobacco Dealers of America, Inc., representing about 300,000 retailers of tobacco prod­ ucts, requested the federal trade1 commission to authorize a -trade practice conference with a view for formulating rules for the elim­ ination of unfair methods of compe­ tition and trade abuses. Representatives from nine tobac- c< producing states wound up a two- day conference in Washington with a request addressed to the agricul­ tural adjustment administration to draft a model production control bill.

It is known as “Squadron 40- temporary” and Rear Admiral Ar­ thur P. Fairfield was named as its commander. Admiral Fairfield hoisted his flag aboard the light cruiser Raleigh at the Norfolk navy yard and sailed for Gibraltar. At first the squadron will consist of the flagship Raleigh, the destroyers Kane and Hatfield and the coast guard cutter Cayuga, but navy of­ ficials expected its strength would be increased soon. The Hatfield, Kane and Cayuga had been on emergency duty in Spanish waters since the outbreak of the Spanish revolt until they were withdrawn to nearby neutr d ports following the attempted bombing of the Kane by an unknown plane off Cadiz last August 30. TT IS pleasant to turn from war I and politics and read of the do­ ings at Cambridge, Mass.,' where Harvard university is celebrating the tercentenary of its founding. In Sanders theater was held the academic reception for 554 scholars . represent- TL . ing 502 universities,. ,,,% coiieges and learned societies in every state of the Union and in forty foreign countries, and all-of them wearing the Dr. James B. caps, gowns and Conant h o o d s signifying their various degrees of scholar­ ship. President James B. Conant greet­ ed the guests, accepted their cre­ dentials and delivered a simple address of welcome. He noted that the assembly was an impressive demonstration of the solidarity of the academic world, and saw in the greetings of the delegates “the con­ tinued aspiration of mankind toward a universal fellowship based on hu: man reason.” Responding on behalf of the dele­ gates, Prof. Elie Cartan of the Uni­ versity of Paris paid tribute to Har­ vard’s contributions to education and declared that “no barrier, po­ litical, religious or social, should be erected to stop the search for truth.” When the delegates were called up in the order of the age of the institutions they represented, first to respond was Prof. Saleh Hashem Attia of Al-Azhar university of Cai­ ro, founded in 970. Then came the next oldest, the Regia university, Neglie Stuni Bologna, founded in the Tenth century, and represented by Prof. Carrado Gini. Third was the University of Paris, founded in the Eleventh century, whose repre­ sentative was Dr. Cartan. Oxford, Cambridge and all the others fol­ lowed, down to the youngest repre­ sented, the Academia Sinica of Nan­ king, China. World famous edubators, scien­ tists and menof letters including ten Nobel prize'winners, were among those who attended the reception. F RANCE’S famous polar explor- *■ er, Dr. Jean Charcot, and 59 of the crew of 60 aboard the explora­ tion ship Pourquoi Pas were drowned when the vessel foundered in'a gale off the Iceland coast. One petty officer swam ashore and told of the tragedy, Charcot led two ex­ peditions to the Antarctic and a gion there is named for 'him, Char- cotland. In 1925, when one of Roald Amundsen’s north polar expeditions was missing, Charcot searched the east coast of Greenland in the Pour quoi Pas. P OPE PIUS XT may be physically weak, as recent reports say, but age and illness have not lessened the vigor of his opinions and his way of expressing them. In greeting and blessing some five hundred Span­ ish refugees who were received at Castel Gandolfo, the holy father took oc­ casion to denounce strongly the “mad” forces of Commu­ nism which, he de­ clared, menaced, in _ __Spain and e ls e - PopePiusXI where, “the very foundations of all order, all culture and all civiliza­ tion.” He urged the constituted authorities of all nations to oppose “these great evils with every reme­ dy and barrier that is possible” and prophesied that there will be utter chaos if “those who have a duty in the m atter do not hasten to repair the breach—if, indeed, it is not al­ ready too late.” T h e p o p e s p o k e e s p e c ia lly o f th e s itu a tio n in S p a in , b u t s a id t h e c r i s i s t h e r e i s “ a s c h o o l in w h ic h th e m o s t s e r io u s le s s o n i s b e in g ta u g h t to E u r o p e a n d 4 to th e w h o le w o r ld — to a w o r ld n o w a t l a s t w h o lly s te e p e d , e n s n a r e d a n d th r e a te n e d b y s u b v e r s iv e p r o p a g a n d a , a n d m o r e e s p e c ia lly to a E u r o p e ., b a t­ te r e d a n d s h a k e n to it s v e r y f o u n d a ­ tio n .” F o r f o r ty m in u te s th e p o n tiff s p o k e p a s s io n a te ly , h is v o ic e a t ti m e s b r o k e n w ith e m o tio n , a n d h is a d d r e s s w a s tr a n s m i t t e d b y r a d io to a ll th e c iv iliz e d w o r ld .

Foreign Min­ ister Yvon Delbos says so, and de­ clares France will under no circum­ stances abandon her military pact with Soviet Russia.' According to Pravda1 authorita­ tive newspaper of Moscow, Hitler plans to attack and partition Czecho­ slovakia before' he embark; on a war against the Soviet union. Benito Mussolini and his cabinet appropriated large sums to build up Italy’s army, navy and air forces to greater strength and planned to carry on vigorously the campaign for self-sufficiency in raw materials. It looked as if the dove of peace was preparing to leave Europe, and as relations between Japan a n d China grew more strained every day, she probably will have to take refuge on the western continent. T HE Spanish rebels scored their greatest victory to date when they captured San Sebastian, cap­ ital of Guipuzcoa province and fa­ mous Bay of Biscay resort. Ssuita Barabara fort, dominating the city, was first taken and the city’s war council then decided to abandon the place, despite the opposition of the anarchists. The more conservative Basque nationals prevented the reds from burning the city, only a paper factory' and two residences being destroyed, and the defending forces retreated toward Bilbao, accompa­ nied by thousands of civilians and foreigners. Insurgent troops, com­ manded by Col. Josc Beorlegui, marched in and were ceremonious­ ly reviewed, and the bishop of Pam­ plona officiated - at a thanksgiving service. The municipal governor, Antonio Ortega, and his staff boarded a yacht to go to new headquarters at Zumaya, about 15 miles west of San Sebastian. The new line of defense was established at Orio. Government spokesmen claimed considerable victories in the Tala- vera sector southwest of Madrid and not far from the Portuguese border. Q U R navy’s intelligence depart- v ment has discovered that a recent small fire on the cruiser Indianapolis while ihe was being overhauled in the New York navy yard was caused by the driving of phonograph needles and nails in­ to an electric cable; and other sus­ pected sabotage on war vessels is being investigated. The work on the cruiser was being done by civilian employees and Capt. Charles A Dunn, industrial manager of the 7 ard, said the placing of the foils in the cables was “undoubted- I e CrSiSererate a ttm p t to dam a^ S e = ^tt I** - a g MCu J„ TURE WALLACE is arranging farm irc ? 0 OflmUnity meetings of int «or Vle purpose of laying program” w**1 conservation pi ugram tor next vear u - _ -, the AAA planned ffie m e e tin g lt crop inTuMnce S i d ^ s f f i l e ^ each” S ° f S S T T k er abundance for the a v e f a Ie h0Znei" and should “hflI to check soil erosion, improve fen S S jp* enS0 VraSe better Iand S e and maintain farm income.” Natlooal Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart National Press Baildlng "W ashington. D. c. Washington. — As the campaign gets more heated it -becomes in- creasingly evident Call Spade that the political a Spade battle this year will result more times in a spade being called a spade—men being named names— than has happened in a good many previous years. When this stage is reached it invariably means that party workers as well as party lead­ ers are thoroughly imbued with the sense of battle and it means further that no phase of either party poli­ cy or personal affairs of the candi­ dates themselves escapes the atten­ tion of the opposition. That probably is the reason why Mr. Roosevelt lately has found him­ self being “kidded” to a greater ex­ tent than usually occurs aboti his “non-political” visits to various sec­ tions of the country. The oppor­ tunity has not yet come for Gover­ nor Landon, the Republican nom­ inee, to be made the butt of such jokes or the subject' of such per­ sonal attacks, but undoubtedly it will arrive long before November 3. To refer again to the President’s “non-political” trips, the corre­ spondents here have been having a great deal of fun about the Presi­ dent’s determination to learn first­ hand about the flood areas of Penn­ sylvania and New England and the drouth areas of the middle west­ ern plains. This is significant. It shows an important change of attitude on the part of the Washington observers who seldom find themselves in a position where they can tell every­ thing they know. It is significant also from- this standpoint that it shows Mr. Roosevelt to have lost the loyalty of a great number of those writers. Time was when 95 per cent of the Washington corre­ spondents were with Mr. Roosevelt on everything he said or did and when they found vulnerable spots or weaknesses in his statements or ac­ tions they were, inclined to overlook them. Such is not the case now, however, and I think it may be added with candor that the Presi­ dent’s programs and policies, his speeches aiid statements in press conferences.are examined with ut­ most scrutiny. From the Democratic standpoint, this is distress ing. From the Re­ publican standpoint, it is a highly valuable change in circumstance. The reason is that as long as the President had a completely "friend­ ly press” he did not need to be so careful nor did he ever need to fear that interpretations would be placed upon his statements or his actions, other than the interpretation which he desired. It takes no stretch of .the imagination to realize forthwith that any time he says or does any­ thing to which exception can be tak­ en, some of those correspondents will point out the other possibilities. I find generally speaking that the writing corps doubted that the Pres­ ident’s Pennsylvania and New Eng­ land visits were based solely on his desire to know what the federal gov­ ernment should do to prevent floods. One correspondent was so extremely frank as to write in his metropolitan newspaper that Mr. Roosevelt foresaw not a flood of wa­ ter but a flood of Republican votes. Of course, this is an exaggerated position for any unbiased writer to take, but there were any number of those correspondents who laugh­ ingly inquired why it was so urgent­ ly necessary for the President to visit the flood areas at this time— considering that there was no Con­ gress in session and no definite pro­ vision for • the framing of flood re­ lief plans.• • * Now as to the President’s visit to the drouth stricken area: The F . drouth was pres-Leamed ent in „dust Little bowl” as the bril­ liant young strate­ gists of the New Deal organization have named the middle western plains. There can be no doubt like­ wise that relief was needed and that a thorough-going understanding of the situation by those responsible in Washington should be. obtained. Yet, I believe it was the consensus of the writers accompanying the- President on that whirlwind tour of the dust storms that Mr. Roosevelt personally gained no knowledge of conditions that was not. already available to him in reports from his subordinates. Indeed, I am told on very good authority that re­ lief representatives who had gone into the drouth area already had written their reports to the Presi­ dent and made their recommenda- “ ons tl°once™ ?g Policies to deal L situation before he left Washmgton on that trip. lrIust be quite obvious, how­ ever, that Mr. Roosevelt desired to see conditions about which so much was being written in the newspa- f ers- * think he cannot be blamed for desiring the opportunity to wit­ ness tilings as they actually were be­ fore the rains came;’ but some of his speeches from' the fear end of his special train evidenced some­ thing more than a hint that he de- !^ fd to see net only the drouth stricken area but the voters who live there. • M o re re c e n tly the P ,, . m a d e a non-pob'ticpi .

The ver­ dict goes to Denison when McCrossen refuses to attempt the stunt. Entreated by the crowd, Denison agrees to perform another trick, /ane Van Tambel is asked for her bracelet and throws it on the track. Just as Denison rides to pick it up a yell from Barney Rcbstock, a McCrossen henchman, scares the pony, near* Iy costing the rider his life. Oun play is pre­vented by the intervention of Doctor Carpy. Sack on Gunlock ranch, after two years in Chicago, because of her father’s illness, Jane gets lost riding in the hills and meets Deni* son, now a neighbor, who guides her home. Not knowing her identity, he speaks bitterly of Van Tambeh She tells McCrossen who brought her home and he denounces Deaisoa as a cattle thief. Later she asks Doctor Carpy why her father it unpopular and he tells her it is because of Van Tambcl’s ruthless and unscrupulous character. McCrossen tries to woo Jane, but is sharply rebuffed. Once again she loses her way in the hills and meets Den* ison. On impulse she gives him her bracelet for guiding her home. Their interest in each other growing, she reveals her identity to him. CHAPTER V—Continued — 8 Cai1PJ laughed his dry little langh. “Well!” he exclaimed benevolently. “You did pick a real outsider, didn't you? What did you think of the brute?" In her confusion, Jane hesitated. ‘Why—I' thought him not had at all," she declared with spirit. What do you think of him?” “Why, to speak just offhand, Jane, I’d say Bill Denison had his enemies; but I think he’s about as square and open-aod-aboveboard a young fellow as lives in the hills. I don’t suppose any of your father’s following would agree with me.” . “He struck me, .too, Doctor, as Jnst such a man," interposed Jane Im pulsively. “What do you know about things like that?” asked Carpy jocularly. "You’re just a kid! He might be a Iiorse thief for all you could tell, girl.” Jane drew herself up. “Don’t be so Sure about every girl’s being a fool— sonie or them might fool you! He told me he used to work at Gunlock. What was the quarrel between him and Father?'’ Dr. Carpy laid his cigar on the edge of the table and braced himself. “It’s a kind of long story,” he began, not knowing exactly bow to tackle a deli­ cate subject. “I’ve lots of time,” remarked Jane disconcertingly. “To begin with, your father was al­ ways a grabber, Jane. Probably couldn’t help it—just built that way. I suppose that hurts your feelings?" The girl winced a little. “Whether it does or does not, Doctor, I want to bear botb sides, and I know you are honest Go ahead, please. Her appeal was not unheeded. “You’re a kind of surprise, Jane,” continued the doctor slowly, “for in spite of the fact that the family name is not very popular In this country, everybody is talking about you—how nice you are, and all that. “Just to show you, Jane, how feel­ ing has been: we've got an ex-sheriff out here, one of the best and biggest- hearted men In the mountains. He’s a character. He happened . in to the hotel the other day, and we got to talk­ ing about you—now don’t blush or get confused, girl—you’re entitled to a good send-off, and I gave you a good one. “Old Bill Pardaloe set where you’re setting, with his feet on the table, chewing tobacco, listening to every word and never, all the time, saying one word himself. When I got through, I told him about you, and that you had’ an aunt in Chicago who’d been out here—a regular sport and no fancy airs because she had a rich brother. “Pardaloe—now I’m telling you this. Jane, only to show you how some of us felt—Pardaloe* shifted his quid and says, 'Doc, it’s kind of hard for me to believe there’s one decent Van Tambel in the world; I'm damned if I'll ever believe there’s two.’”- “Oh, Doctor!” “Don’t take It hard, girl One thing about these frontier men, they’re as open-minded and simple as children. Just a word or a smile from an up-’n’- coming girl like you and you'll have ’em eating out of your hand. ‘Uill Denison worked awhile for your father; he was foreman at Gunlock. Your father thought Denison was Just about right He could do everything— and do it. well. He made so much money for your fftther that he gave him a share In the cattle; a tenth, I believe It was. When be quit, Denison asked for a settlement on bis share. You; father told him he didn't have no share. They went to law about It. Denison got beat—he didD't have any­ thing but a verbal contract So Bill went back to live on his own ranch next to the Reservation. It’s small, but-has plenty of good water from a big spring that makes It valuable. Then he began running oft esough Gunlock cattle in small bunches—cat­ tle be claimed belonged to hjm, any­ way—to pay off what your father owed him. There was a great hue and cry. But Bill was too smart for the Gun- lock boys—privately, I thick the In­ dians helped Bill. They swear by him. “So Bill was cussed by your father as a rustler. It made cattlemen laugh, thinking of your father’s own reputa­ tion In that respect. And the old man brought a Iswsuit against Bill to oust him from the little ranch, account bad title. That suit is still pending in the land office at Washington. Now rtiat’s just about the story, Jane. If I’ve hurt your feelings some, I didn’t do it because I wanted to. You asked me to tell you the truth. Did I do right or wrong?” The shock of the doctor’s story so humiliated Jane that she wanted only to get back home and hide what she felt to be the shame of her father from everybody. She i*id promised to ride back the hill trail with Denison; she felt she just couldn’t do i t She took a short cut borne across the desert. Her mystifled and disappoint­ ed admirer, after lingering patiently in the hills till dusk rode into town only to learn at McAlpin’s barn that Jane had taken her pony out early In the afternoon. It was a painful night. She realized why the name she bore was so unpop­ ular in Sleepy Cat. Her depression bore her down; even Quong saw that something was wrong. ( He cooked special dishes to tempt Jane’s appetite, but her appetite could not be tempted. “Why don’t you get out and ride any more?” asked Bull Page one day. “You haven’t beeD on a horse for two weeks —just sit moping around the house, eating nothing, talking nothing, just “What Did You Think of the Brute?" reading and reading. Must be your liver. Next time I’m in town I’ll buy a bottle of Belcher’s Liver Regulator for you.” "Liver regulator!” laughed Jane scornfully. “Quong takes it,” urged Bull, quite serious. “I don’t need any Uver regulator, Bull. Just let me alone. I’U be all right” For another two weeks Bull was wor­ ried. Tben suCienly Jane relented. She would take a horseback ride If Bull would ride with her—not other­ wise. They started together, it was after­ noon. The air was thick with a soft haze that tempered the sun’s rays. The trail led In and out of the thin pine woods. . She began to think her nervous ap­ prehension of meeting Denison again had been a wasted worry. Indeed, she and her guide were homeward bound within a mile of the ranch house when both heard the clatter of hoofs behind them. Jane would not have looked around for a million dollars. Bull told her there were two men coming np. “Who are they?” “Looks like Carpy and Bill Denison.” Jane’s heart raced. However, this seemed not so bad. Three men and one woman were better than one man and one woman. Carpy and Denison approached together. "Where are you riding to today, doc­ tor?” asked Jane. “Gunlock ranch.” Jane showed surprise. “Who’s sick at the ranch?” “One of the boys,” said Carpy, “That’s the Brst Tve heard of it,” exclaimed Jane. “Who is It?” "One of the boys that got cut up last night downtown. I sewed him up and want to see how he is. Nothing serl- ous, I guess,” said Carpy. t “Any news In town, dot tor?’- asked Jane, though not in the least Interested In Sleepy Cat news. “Nothing but the brush flres np North. This whole country’s dry as tinder. I hope the winds will keep ’em up North. What do you hear from your father?” asked the doctor In re­ turn. “Oh, he’s better," said Jane. “He talks about coming home pretty, soon.’ “Well, that’s news,” commented Doc­ tor Carpy, noncommittally. “He’s got a wonderful constitution, that man,” thinking to AimseIf that It was. much too good. “How have ypfc b.een your- self, girl?” "Oh, I’m just fine, doctor.” “Rarin’ to go, eh? Come on, girl, Tl? race you through this pine belt” Jane saw her chance to escape an uncomfortable situation, for Denison hadn’t said a word. She dashed gayly ahead and outran Carpy. But Denison followed her, overtaking her and rid­ ing alongside. The spurt couldn’t ’last forever, though Jane prolonged it to the best of her ability. She wondered whether she had jumped from the frying pan' into the fire; she was alone now with Denison. When she slackened her pace, out of breath, her cheeks were aglow. “I wouldn’t push that pony of yours too bard.” suggested Denison inciden­ tally. “He’s a nervous critter.” “Oh, he’s all right,” said Jane lightly, “but it does shake one up, doesn’t itJ" she exclaimed, panting a little. “It does,” agreed Denison. “But I got my real shakeup when I spied you on the trail. I’ve been staking myself out alone on this trail every day for a month or so, hoping to get sight of you.” . “I haven’t felt much like riding late­ ly.” "I was afraid you were sick. I watched for the doctor coming out, bu! I didn’t see him. I used to ride Uf G ud IocIi Knob every day or two to see if I could see anythin^ of you.” “I wish you wonldn’t do such things. Where is Gunlock Knob?” “It’s that peak over by the spring. It’s really on your father’s ranch, I guess, but I’m always careful not to run into any of your men." ‘Tm sorry, but you mustn’t look for me any more—please don’t.” She glanced at blm tirmly as she spoke. To Denison she had never looked so lovely. “Why?” he demanded. “Have I—” “You haven't but I have—I guess that’s the way to put i t I mustn’t see you any more. I don't expect to re­ main In this country very long, any­ way.” “What have I done. Jane?” “Nothing, nothing." “Somebody's been telling lies about me," he declared with some bitterness. “No.” “If you’d tell me what they are, I could answer them.” “I said, no! No one has talked about you." His sudden Intensity frightened Jane. She burst Into tears, “Now I’ve made matters worse!” he exclaimed penitently. “I didn’t mean to scare you, Jane. : I guess my bark’s worse’n my bite. But it makes me wild to think I’ve been lied about to you.’' “You haven’t,” sputtered poor Jane. “Don’t yon believe me when I say no­ body’s been talking about you?” "Please excuse me, then. I do be­ lieve you. But if you’d give me. a chance to, I’d be’ willing to tel! you every mean thing Pve done in my life— and leave it all to you. Don’t ,con­ demn me without a hearing—that’s all I ask.” "Nobody Is condemning yon,'; I'm only. If anything, condemning myself.” “For what?” he demanded. “For ever coming to this country ait all, if you must know,” she declared In angry desperation. “But, Jane, that doesn’t sound rea­ sonable,” protested ber companion. “I can’t help that,” she said'petu­ lantly. “I wish I’d never seen this country. And I’m going to leave it, the very first minute I get a chance. Don’t see me any more. I don’t want to see anybody till I can leave here and for­ get everything." “Just as you say, Jane. This Is some trouble I don’t know about," ho said. “But if I can’t see you any riiore, Jane, please remember that wherever you are, here or ten thousand miles from here, I love you.” Jane got home thinking of how wretchedly she had handled the sit­ uation with Denison. It proved to be her foreman, Mo Crossen, who had been cut up in a gambling quarrel. Jane kept Doctor Carpy for supper, and that evening she held him as long as she could. She felt down In the depths. When he started for town, Jane walked out In the moonlight with him, talking and clinging to his hand. When he mounted, she still asked questions to keep blm talking and kept bis hand in hers. “Jane," he said, “there's something hurting your mind, not your body. Ds you want to tell me, girl?" “Not tonight, doctor." “Sometime, maybe—come to me just the same as if I were your father. You are a lovely young girl, Jana. Witb what Uod lias given you, you can make or break any man in the world. CJse your power mercifully.” Her face fell against bis band. He felt on It the warmth of her tears. “Mustn’t worry, my child. And If the load, whatever It Is, gets too heavy-^ you know where to bring it,” he add­ ed, wheeling away. She had promised Doctor Carpy to ride every day, and while attending the wounded man he kept close tab. on ber, but she avoided the main trails and kept to the bills near the ranch house. Carpy brought Uttle news from Sleepy C at but he spoke of tbe forest fires north of town. “I hope we shan’t be. bothered here,” said Jane. “No danger here unless they cross the river. You haven’t much timber on the east ranch. There’s none to speak of over on tte range. But you’ve got a lot scattered around here in the hills. If It should get. down into the. . reservation 'timber, there would to hell to pay.” . (TO BE CONTINUED), Black Satin Frock for Autumn Wear V Introducing Autumn’s smartest frock.

The item' of freight or trucking charges on leaf tobacco purchased by manu* facturers and dealers having plants here does not have to be considered by these buyers in the prices offered .under the competitive bidding plan-the saving means a leeway, to the farmers in the prices they bid. The Winston-Salem leaf market was founded and has developed on a basis of growers satisfaction. The Nerfleet, the Gorrells, the Browns, the Carters, the Wil­ sons and others always had the interest cf lie grcwer in mind. This spirit of friendly rhelpfulness still prevails and when the ten warehousemen invite you to “drive' in” during the 1936-1937 season it is an invitation from a friend to a friend. More highways serve Winston-Salem than any other market or any city in the State. This means a saving in gas, oil and other expenses as you come to this inarket over a direct route dr routes. The buyers eagerly seek the type of tobacco grttwn in this area. You further benefit through the law of supply and demand as well as through the. quality of the type of your tobacco when it- is sold on a market that is always on., the lookout for proven types and quality. . ; . Ten warehouses will be in operation at the opening of the market on October Stbf which number will greatly facilitate the handling of your tobacco this season. _ Wi Chamber of Commerce y ■ ■ ■ —-• • ■- ' •' . ... ■ ■■ Winston-Salem Retail Merchants Association. -iI W•: »Mi S i HS! s - A --••_••-• ••.•.. ••• .-- . -• • • - • -•,*■ ,-- '-r^';:-'^ 'r-& I: Il 1 H I Il I f i i d A tS l fttCOftft, MOCKSVlLffi f t & SEPTEMBER 30, lS& Constitution Is I Campaign lssue Citizens’ Rights at Stake in Coming N ational I Election. For the first time in many years the Constitution'of the United States is a major issue in a presidential campaign. This situation has not prevailed in such acute form since the elections held between the time when the Constitution was drawn up in the Philadelphia Convention of 1787 and the final ratification of that document by the requisite num­ ber of states..There have been other elections in which some particular amend-, ment or proposed amendment was at stake, such as, for example, re­ peal of the Eighteenth Amendment, which figured largely in the 1932 campaign. But this is the first time that the basic structure of the Constitution., itself has been really an important national issue. This has come about, of course, because of .the'policies adopted by the Roosevelt New Deal administra­ tion in its efforts to bring aboukre- covery and to set up a more pow­ erful centralized government than had theretofore existed in Washing­ ton.That the nation is “Constitution conscious” is illustrated _ by the many references to the basic law in numerous speeches by political can­ didates. Heretofore most Ameri­ cans have taken the Constitution for granted. They have seldom stopped to realize that it. is the unimpaired existence of the Constitution which enables them to go about their daily business in freedom.For nearly a century and a half American citizens have enjoyed re­ ligious freedom, the right of free speech, the right of a trial -by jury if ' accused of crime, the right of protection of their homes and prop­ erty against unreasonable searches and seizure, and numerous other rights guaranteed by the Constitu­ tion.Citizens or subjects of other lands have not been so fortunate and in many of the more important na­ tions they do not enjoy today the rights which are accepted as a mat­ ter of course in America. The efforts of. the New Deal to take unconstitutional short cuts to- ward.recovery—disregarding the or­ derly processes of amendment ,yhich the Constitution itself pro- Ides—have made the people real- "e that after all their Constitution does not protect itself. It must be protected by the votes of citizens. Political observers in Washing­ ton comment frequently upon the in­ terest shown this year in the Consti­ tution and these observers are in close touch with public sentiment throughout the nation. Some public men are inclined to feel t&at the revival of public interest Sn the fundamental law of the land is a most healthful symptom. They ac­ cept the theory that the public, hav­ ing been aroused to the necessity of .protecting their constitutional rights and liberties, is fully capable of making that protection effective. Embarrass New Deal? Not Easy, Says Woman The WPA administrator for New ,York City recently accepted the resignation of Mrs. Sarah S. Den- nen, director of women’s activities, with jurisdiction over 10,000 women. The administrator objected to a mu- ;sicale arranged by Mrs. Dennen on 1WPA time and is quoted as having said the methods- of Mrs. Dennen !were embarrassing Harry S. Hop­ kins and President Roosevelt. Ac- 'cording to Mrs. Dennen’s statement to the press she made this reply: "I don’t see how a mere woman like myself, telling the truth, can embarrass Mr. Hopkhu and the Ad­ministration when the lilorida Ship Canal and Passamaquoddy have failed to embarrass them.” . Cotton Benefit Went to Johnston Concern i The report by Secretary Wallace submitted reluctantly just before 'Congress adjourned confirmed the charges of Senator Vandenburg as ito high awards made to farmers for not planting crops. One of the interesting disclosures in the .list of huge awards ranging from $10 ,- 000 up to more than $1,000,000 was that regarding the $318,287 paid • by a humanitarian Administration to the British-owned'Delta Pine and Land Company, of Mississippi for not growing cotton. The manager of this company is Oscar Johnston. Incidentally Mr. Johnston has been associated with. AAA. since 1933, of­ ficiating-as manager of the AAA Cotton Producer’s Pool and as Vice- President of the Commodity Credit 'Corporation. ~ Out of Step Again.Answering a question as to com­ plaints that private'industry is un­ able to induce many relief worker's ' to quit WPAij'oJ)S?f§r private?jobs President Roosevelt'said there'was a reason. » He told his press confer­ ence that when such complaint^ were run down' it was found that private contractors were offering' less than fair subsistence wages. .

NATIONWIDE SMByEY A m e ric a n a n d S ta te B a n k in g A sso c ia tio n s' C o lla b o ra te in In v e stig a tio n L O A N S E R V IC E S S T U D IE D A c tiv itie s o f th e G o v e rn m e n t in th e B a n k in g F ie ld A re R e v ie w ed a n d P o sitio n o f B a n k s A n a ly z e d NEW YORK..—Detailed 'iank re­ searches, covering all phases of prac­ tical operating and economic facts and conditions related to banking, are be­ ing made by the. American Bankers ASociation. The resulting material is being placed at the disposal, of all state banking associations, which in many instances are extending the re­ searches of the national issociation in their own states. These ictivities are said to be a pari of the general pro­ gram of banking development which - is being-carried on by the organized banking business. Among the most extensive re­ searches being conducted by the American Bankers Association is that of its Committee on Banking Studies, which is making a detailed survey of Federal Government lend­ ing agencies and policies. The basic material, 1Which is kept up to date by continuing studies, shows where the uovernment agencies get the money they lend, what liability the Governr ment assumes, what subsidy it ex-, tends, what return it gets, for what and to whom the money goes and on what terms it is loaned. The Government In Bankbif “It is not the intention of the com­ mittee to express its viewpoint about any agency,” says the foreword to this material. “Its. intention^ is only to de­ termine the facts. These facts prop­ erly assembled and presented should help banks to meet Government com­ petition if and where it exists. The committee believes the Government, entered the lending field at a critical period in order to aid banks and financial institutions! If the time has come for the Government to with­ draw, it is the duty of bankers to demonstrate their readiness to take care of all sound credit needs." It adds that the banks must be equipped with full factual material as to the Government’s emergency lending activities and prabtices, and that full cooperation has been given the committee by Government agen-; cies in obtaining facts. Binders of the material'gathered have been placed by the committee in the hands of state associations. - Investigation of Postal Savings . The Committee on Banking Studies has also made a survey of the Postal Savings System throughout the United States to ascertain to what ex­ tent it is competing with'chartered banks. Questionnaires were sent to banks in all places'where Postal Sav­ ings depositories are operated and their answers will be analyzed as a basis for the committee’s findings. The Bank Management' Commis-' sion of the American Bankers Asso­ ciation has made a nation-wide sur­vey covering the movement among banks to increase their earning abili­ties “through fair and legitimate rates for services they render their deposi­tors.” It has developed a plan of ac­count analysis as a basis of fair charges. “AU business In order to justify Its existence is founded on the economic principle that a reasonable, return should be expected from" services rendered,"the commlssionsays. ' Penonai Income Loans The Bank Management Commis­sion has.also formulated methods for installing and operating personal in* come loan departments in banks. “This plan contemplates - making loans primarily to individuals and small business concerns, based upon the character and assured incomes of the borrowers, as distinguished from the usual basis ; for 'commercial loans,’” the commission says. It points out that a. large part of the population is not now making use of available bank credit and that “to these people the personal loan de­ partment extends a valuable service which, at the same time is profitable to the bank.” It adds that it is “the duty of the banks to'educate the pub­ lic to come to the bank for all finan­ cial services. Small borrowers should be informed that the local bank is willing to care for their "demands.” Other Researches Other researches are being made by the Economic Policy Commission of the association dealing with shrink­ages in liquid commercial loans, caused by economic changes In the nation’s business methods while the National -Bank Division .-has made studies of the Iending and investment powers of this class of bank, the pres­ ent status of-the real Estate, invest­ment field and. of detailed data by states on earnings and expenses.
