r THE JOHNSTONIAN—SUN, SELMA, N. C. Brighter Days Ahead Says The President Hoover Tells Business Men That He Is Convinced the Country Has Overcome the Major Financial Crisis. Democratic Election Frauds In Stanly At Washington, Aug. *26, national business pilots embarked on a broad ■six-point program to make new jobs after hearing the personal con viction of President Hoover that the 'Country has overcome the major ■financial crisis. The unprecedented gathering of American industrial, banking and business leaders called to Washing ton by the President accepted his suggestion to „assure further ini tiative and responsibility” in „this new seting” by selecting a central committee to direct the six-way drive to better g-eneral conditions. A resolution naming Henry Robinson, Los Angeles banker, as head of the permanent central com- imttee was adopted without a dis senting vote as the question was pit to the distingui.-hed assemblage in the auditorium of the commerce department building after a full day of discussion. Mr. Hoover, in “major financial economic Hard For Republiteans To Get Its Electors Registered And, Voted And Their Ballots Counted As Cast.

Much is still to he done, he asserted. The six-point program adopted by the conference calls for making available credit “affirmatively use ful to business”; .stimulation of rail road and home repairs and improve ments; expansion of capital expendi tures in the way of replacements; encreased employment “through sharing of work,” and assistance to home owmers with maturing mort gages. The government heads immediate ly charged with responsibilities in t -ese fields participated in the day’s discussions. The non-partisan effort ■was emphasized. President S. Clay Williams, of the R. .1. Reynolds Tobacco Co., was invited by President Hoover to at tend the meeting. Radio Reports On Air At Height of 10 Miles Radio meteorographs are the new est devices for bringing down to •earth information on atmospheric conditions high above the clouds. Several of these instruments have just been calibrated by the United States Weather Bureau and sent to Alaska for use in obtaining facts for the Second International Polar Year, which started August 1. A radio meteorograph consists of an automatic temperature and pres sure recording device and a compact radio sending appratus. It is attach ed to a balloon for release at any desired point. As the balloon rises the changes in barometric pre-sure an.'i in temperature cause a metal finger to move across various con tact points, thus transmitting radio signals. The observer on the ground below picks up these signals with a receiving set and, from calibrations of the instrument previously made, determines the corresponding temp eratures and heights. In thickly settled areas instruments that authomatically record atmosph eric changes on tracing paper are often sent up in balloons. Attached to a parachute and bearing a tag asking that they be returned to the nearest Weather Bureau station, they stand a good chance of being recovered. In the uninhabited polar regions, however, they are not likely to be seen again. The radio meteoro graph was, therefore, designed for use ther». Atmospheric records at all levels UP to about 4 miles can be obtain ed by pilots in airplanes. To get re cords at higher levels, however, bal loons are necessary. They go 10 miles or more up into the stratosphere be fore they burst. Radio meteorgraphs are designed to promote that part of the polar year program which calls for a det ermination of the relationship be tween weather conditions in the po lar regions and those in the lower lat-'tudes. They will also help toward a better understanding of the gen eral circulation of the atmosphere over the earth. (Union Republican) Stanly county has long been no ted as a “plague-spot” when it comes to holding the elections, the Democrats giving the Republicans no show whatever, and are charg ed with the most flagrant viola tions of the election laws imagin able. Republicans have been de prived of their votes, hundreds of absentee ballots cast for people who have long since moved away from the county and numerous other questionable methods perpetuated upon the Republicans by the Demo crats. This year W. E. Bogle, chairman of the Republican county executive committee has made a statement in which he fires a broadside into the Democratic camp, making ac cusations of irregularities in the 1930 election and offers to prove same to any one that disputes it- North Carolina for it was at Al bemarle in 1900 the late Charles B. Aycock when making his cam paign for Governor in a speech de livered in that City stated that if elected Governor and the amend ment eliminating the negro vote in the state was adopted that he sol emnly promised that in the future no white man should be deprived of his vote. It is a wonder that some times the ghost of Aycock would not walk into Albemarle on election night and knock over some of the election thieves in that county for making him out a liar. Chairman Bogle’s statement which was given out the past week re garding the situation in Stanly was as follows: “While I have no special politi cal news at this time, I would bke to say, however, that I hope the time will come when the elector.^ will have the opportunity of cast ing their ballots as their conscience or better judgment may direct and with the assurance that they will be counted as cast. “If a majority of the people of Stanly countv desire that the county offices be filled by Democrats; but if a majority of the people of Stan ly county desire the county affairs handled by Republican officials, I msist that this is their rightful privilege al-o and that Republicans should be elected to fill the offices. “Under our existing election laws, as handled, it is hard for the Repub lican party to get its electors re gistered and voted and their ballots counted as cast. “The 1930 election in this county was not conducted as an election should be. Electors who had been out of the county for a long time and voted elsewhere were voted by ab-entee ballots, others who were Bank of Savings has, since 1819, paid its depositor-owners .$189,000,- 000 in dividends. The Bowery Sav ings Bank, which is the largest of all, made its 210th payment; and there are five other banks which have unbroken records running over a century. The oldest account is in the Bank of Savings. A depositor put therein $10 in 1819, and added another $5 in 1820. There have nev er been any additional deposits, nor has there been any withdrawals, though the account has been kept alive by heirs of the original de positor. It now amounts to $3,100. Headed Hellwards. the Secretary of War Hurley Assails Frank Roosevelt In a number of issues of North State News, we have cond emned bridge playing. It is as sinful to play 'bridge for prize as it is to play poker for money. But who plays bridge and where? The most popular bridge parties are held by church members, women who sing, teach and pray as loud as anybody on Sundays. Six days spent in serving the devil only show that the seventh day’s work is false pretense. People cannot serve two masters. It is not the play that is wrong, but the spirit of gambling that is usually displayed. To make these blacker in the public eye, is the fact that some church members glory in holding their evening’s games in sight of their church. In one in.stance we are told, a group of women, church members, gather ed for an afternoon game, or party or some kind and eating of refresh ments on the porch of the hostess’ home almo t at the door of the church. 'While the party was in pro gress ,a revival service was being ■conducted in the church. Whose mesages could be heard ? Was it the message of God’s salva tion delivered by the pastor or was it the devil’s me-sage delivered by a porch full of giggling women Playing bridge for a prize is sin ful, and hell is just a little way up the road. It looks like a lot of modern women are determined .to get there ahead of the men.—Apex North State News. consider them in order, in condens- f orm; 1. “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” This obviously is a land which has many gods before him. Most of the tribulations of ancient Israel were caused, according to the bibical records, by their wandering off after strange gods. The worship of Jehovah is below par, to say the least, in America. 2. “Thou shalt not make thee any graven image.” A dead letter. 3. “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.” It is being done in the best society, as well as in the worst. 4. “Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.” Our memories is this particular are somewhat defective, and we are not at all sure what “keeping it holy” means. 5. “Honor thy father and thy mother.” There is probably less of this in America than in any other country. 6. “Thou shalt not kill.” America leads the world in killers. 7. “Thou shalt not commit adultry.” Rather a conventional offense in these United States. 8. “Thou shalt not steal.” “Oh, yeah?” seems that we have heard of some stealing, too. 9. “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” Let the courts testify as to the obser vance of this command. 10. “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, nor anything that is his.” Almost universally violated. These commands are a concise statement of the basic essentials of an orderly civilization. Though they were promulgated more than 3,000 years ago, they are still in force in the written or unwritten statutes of human society, and any society, or any people, that ignores them qr persistently violates them, is bound to deteriorate. Regardless of the forms of religious belief, and wheth er we like it or not, the moral law is necessary supreme in the relations of civilized mankind and if not obeyed or enforced it creates its own penalties.

Peppery War Head Says New York Governor Has No Program Save ■Vague References To A New Deal. Secretary of War Patrick .J. Hur ley, whom the Democrats some days ago reported would be silenced dur ing the remainder of the campaign proved to these self-same Democrats Wednesday that their “wish was father to the thought” and showed them, like other doubtful reports they have been circulating that this one too, was untrue and he waded into the wishy-washy, vacillating stand of Franklin D. Roosevelt that must at, once have been pleasing to all red-blooded Americans. Saying Franklin D. Rosevelt “has suggested no program, save the vague references to a new deal,” secretary Hurley paid tribute' to the Hoover non-partisan reconstruction program in an address Wednesday to the Rhode Island Republican Club at Rocky Point. The speech was an answer to the one made before the Ohio Democratic convention at Co lumbus the past week by the Demo cratic candidate for President. Hurley praised President Hoover’s exposition of views in accepting re nomination, asserting: “For constructiveness of purpose, definiteness of program and for in tellectual decency the Hoover accept ance speech has already taken its place in the minds of the American people among the outstanding pap ers of the republic. Contrast the words and the spirit of the Hoover address with the carping criticism, the unsupported charges, the indefi nite, impractical and floundering sug- sale of securities . . . The control of the sale of these securities and the conditions under which they may be sold or not sold is now in the State of New Yoi'k . . . These laws have not been' enforced by Governor Roosevelt ... He is trying to pass the buck to the. federal government. “Why has the Governor not used the power of his great office, as chief executive of New York ,to bring about the elimination of the abuses and frauds in commercial banking that he so properly con- aemns ; Secretary Hurley said it was un disputed that a general reform in the national banking laws was need ed, but that President Hoover re commended changes nine months PLAN TO INCREASE PRODUCTION OF FISH Six fish for every man, woman, and child in North Carolina is dis tributed evenly and with mortality not counted is the record produc tion of “young hopefuls” for the benefit of the tens of thousands of fishermen of the State ' during the pa-t two years, J.

The campaign has hardly begun yet but already the people must be ■warned to be on their guard against reckless mi.-istatements in political speeches.

Praising the Smoot-Hawley tariff law. Hurley said “Governor Roose velt wants to reduce the protective tariff, but will he state to the Am erican people which schedule of the tariff he would reduce. Does he want to reduce those schedules which were put in the tariff by the Demorcatic members of the House for the protection of the industries in normally Democratic states Chemical Controls Peach Tree Borers Effective control of peach tree borers can be secured by growers in North Carolina by the use and prop er applications of paradichlorenzene. “This chemical has been thorough ly tested and peach growers can ex- 95 to 100 percent control pect from gestions of the Columbus address of j properly,” says C.

Have you had any ex perience?” “Yes, indeed, I have, sir. Seven children.” _ ‘I tell yon, nobody on earth can fool my wife!” “Then, how did you contrive to get her?” “Pa, what is conscience money?” “It’s the dollar your mother leaves in my pocket when she cleans out all the test.” “How’re you getting along with your garden?” “Fine!

A JUDGE’S REMEDY. Among other evils that seem to be on the increase is that of divorce, and there is one man who might well speak with authority as to their causes. Judge . Joseph Sabath of Chicago, has the reputation of hav ing presided in more divorce suits in court than any other man in the world. From his background of ex perience he has this to say: “Divorce can. only be prevented by keeping the flame of love from dying out. ■When affection goes out, hatred comes in. True love is born of re ligious faith, and to preserve home life .it must be made spiritual. For that reason I believe in the sancti ty of marriage and in the sacred ness of family ties. The greatest de fense of marital happiness and of the maintenance of the integrity 6f the home is the open Bible, daily prayers about the family altar and the practice of the principles of re ligion.” Mother; “Mary, aren’t you getting too big to play with boys?” Mary: “No, mother; the bigger I get the better I like ’em.” States embassies in foreign coun tries. Secretary of State StimsoH promptly sent a letter to the Senate in which he vigorously denied Sen ator McICellar’s statement as “whol ly -without foundation.” The Secre tary wrote that never in the recol lection of any official of the De partment of State has a recom mendation been made to Congress for an appropriation for wine or other intoxicating liquor for any officer of the Department abroad. Not only was this true, declared the Secretary, but by direct order of the President official representatives of this Government abroad are ex pressly forbidden to expend any portion of any .sum placed at their disposal for the purchase of alco holic- beverages. This Administration not only en forces the law to the best of its ability, but it OBSERVES it to the letter. NEM'ELL GETS GREAT OVATION At the Falcon camp meeting six miles from Dunn, Harnett county, Sunday afternoon, Aug. 28, Jake F. Newell, Republican candidate for the U. S. Senate for one and a half hours electrified 4,000 people in an address long to be remembered. Mr. Newell was invited, to tell of his trip to the Holy Land to which program,” were also assailed. “From the very beginning of this campaign. Governor Roosevelt con tinuously has attempted to arouse class antagonism, to capitalize dis content, to make politics out of hu man misery and to profit by dis tortion of fact. “LTp to this moment, the Gover nor has not stated whether he ap proves or disapproves the Hoover non-partisan reconstruction program. He has not stated whether he would continue that program in effect or repeal it. He has not offered one suggestion of any nature for the im provement of that program.” “Up to this moment, the Gover nor has not offered one construc tive suggestion that would give em ployment imediately to any person or relieve distress or overcome the effects of the depression.” The Secretary of War disagreed with the New York Governor’s charge that “the bubble burst first in the land of its origin, the United States.” “If he were familiar with the ‘records of the civilized world,’ Hur ley said, “he would have known of the great war, its inheritance of high taxes, armament, instability, and revolutions. These would seem to have more to do with the busi ness of the world than a stock mar ket boom, or crash. “He would know that our tariff was not enacted until nearly a year after the boom broke, so that did not break it.” Hurley said the report of the world conference of government of ficials and economists at Geneva in 1931 “proves that the boom did not start first in the United States and did not break first in the United States. It shows that the boom broke in six important commercial countries before it broke in the Uni ted States concidentally.” Questioning Governor Rosevelt’s statement that two-third of Ameri can industry is concentrated in a few hundred corporations. Hurley commented, “It would be interesting to know what reliable authority has ever made such a statement.” “To find a more permanent so lution to our unemployment prob lem,” he said. “President Hoover has instructed the Department of Labor and Commerce to study the five-day week and programs of shorted hours as a means of wider distribution, of employment.” The suggestions by the New York Governor, which Secretary Hurley called “his so-called constructive 0, extension entomologist at State College. “The age of the tree ,how ever, has a great deal to do 'with the amount of chemical to use and growers should be very careful^ in. the amount used as well as the time and method of application.” ■Where two and three year old trees are badly infested the chemical may be used at the rate of one-half ounce to the tree but if the tree is not badly infested the use is not recommended, says Mr. Brannon. ^ For trees that are four and five years old three-quarters of an ounce is sufficient and for those trees that are six years oid and older one full ounce should be applied. For every old tree with large trunks the dose should be one and one-cjuarter ounc^ to the tredi -4 Mr. Brannon states that very lit tle perparation of the soil is neces sary other than breaking the crust with a hoe and smoothing it off. The dirt, however, must be placed around the tree if the borer hole is above the surface of the soil. The gas formed by paradichlobenzene is heavier than air and will not pene trate holes above the point of ap plication. In applying the chemical all gum should be scraped from the trunk of the tree and the dirt levelled.. The crystals should then be put in a continuous ring around the tree about one inch wide and one inch from the trunk. Be careful in put ting down the crystal so that none will come .in contact with the tree, advises Mr. Brannon. Loose dirt should then be placed over the cryst als and packed in a mound close to the tree, he states. he was sent in 1929-30 by his large Sunday-school class of the Methodist church in Charlotte. The tabernacle was filled to capa city and hundreds milled about the grounds, unable to get seats dur ing the speech. Mr. Newell was introduced by Julius Culbreth as one of the fore most Bible .students in the country and as teacher of one of the lar,g- est Sunday school classes in the South. The Governor favors the refrom of the stock exchange,” Hurley said. The stock exchange is an institu tion existing under the laws of the state of New York. There is no doubt but what abuses have existed in the operation of that exchange.. What did the Governor of New York do to remedy this situation during the long period in which he has had the power to act? “Governor Roosevelt now suggests federal control and publicity for the NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE SALE. Under and by virtue of the pow ers of sale vested in me by a cer tain deed of trust made and execut ed by A. S.
