n'HURSDAY, SEPT. 21, 1933. THE JOHNSTONIAN—SUN, SELMA, N. C. . niE JOHNSTONIAN—SUN M. L. STANCIL, Editor and Mgr. SUB.SC RIPTION One Year $1.00; 6 .Months 50c Entered as second-class matter July 4, 1929, at the post office at Selma, N. C. under the Act of March 3, 1879. STOIl.H I)A.\1A(;E heavy iieldom, if evei’ within the = i^ollcction of the olde.st inhabi- i :.nts of the country, have tjiere been so many tropical stoiTns within a single season thi.s year. The Weather Bureau began telling about tficr.e devastating storms dur ing the month of July, and while they did not reach our coa.sts that early in the season with any marked intensity they did, do much damage in many of the tropical islands. Later they made a swoop at Florida and the Texas coasts and also the coast of Mexico bringing great destruction to property and taking many hu man lives as well. Then upon short notice a warning came that a great hurricane was sweeping up the Atlantic to ward the Carolina coast. This was some time in August. This storm did but little damage south of the city of Wilmington, N. C.. but from that point noilhward its toll was somewhat immense, cent ering its foi'ce 4iround Norfolk and other far eastern Virginia points, where many lives were lost and property damage went into the millions of dollai’s. Great oop damage was report ed thi'oughout eastern Cai'olina and Virginia during the days that followed. But the late.st disturbance was the one which swept up from the Cai-ibean sea last week. But little seems to have been known of this storm un til early Friday morning. Even the Fi'iday morning papers had but bare mention of it and some had nothing at all to say about it. One .short news item told of a disturbance located several hundred miles east of Jacksonville, Fla., headed north- ■-’estward at the rate of 12 to 15 miles per hour, with winds of hurricane foi'ce near its ccmtei-. Then later in the day Friday the i-adio station con tinued to broadcast storm waim- ings and telling of the move ment of the hurricane which was expected to strike the Noith Carolina coa.st late Fri day night or eaily .Saturdav morning. But most of the people living in the isolated sections of oui' seacoast had not heard of the impending storm and those without radio facili ties knew nothing more than W’hay they could see by the threatening elements and the inrolling tides bi'ought by an increasing wind and rain. But since warnings of a severe hur ricane ai'e usually sent out far in advance, the inhabitants did not take the weathei' serious- until they found themselves overpowTi’ed by the greatest hurricane that has sw'ept oui' coasts in many yeai's. iMan\- small towns and villages wei’“ almost completely wijjed out of existence. Human lives were snuffed out. houses wei’e blown down like tall grass in the path of a pararie fii'e. crops were submerged under high water bi-idges went out, highways were blocked l)v fallen trees and other debris, small fishing c.i-aft and other small boats were hurled about like mere egg shells, while the sui'viving inhabitants were cut off from the outside world and knew but little about the stoi'm excerit what they could see with their own eves. They didn’t know when it was going to strike oi’ wlien to expect it to subside— a most pitiable state to be in to say the least. Wind veloci ties of more than a hundi’ed miles are re]iorted along the Noi'th Cai’olina coasts early Satuj'day moiming when the eye of the .storm passed over that section. ists w’ere not accustomed to discussion of many phases of their affairs which as vitally concerned the' public and their workers as themselves. But they soon f'ound that the mem bers of the consumers’ and labor advisory boards and the representatives of NRA’s re- seai’ch division were well in- forared. The members of the industrial advisory board also are chosen by the Administra tion. These circumstances gradual ly promoted a spirit of candor. .As a result of this welcome era of plain speaking at official public hearings concerning the Ijroducts which we eat and wear and use and at least in nmmal times regard as indis pensable, we will do well to learn the lessons they already have plainly taught us, and abundantly. We no longer de pend upon prophecies of econo mists, if we evei’ did, but in the titanic struggle for recovery in which we are notv engaged it behooves us to take advantage at once of revelations now be ing made. When, for example, a member of the code commit tee on the boot and shoe indus try asseiTs that in order to cover the additional pay to wage earners through reabsoip- tion of many thousands of the unemployed it will be necessary to inci’ease the Nation’s boot and shoe bill $180,000,000, there could not be more force ful argument for laying in \ shoes for every member of the family. The same argument’ applies to evej’ything else, and the first thing we know there will be an impetus buying that will bring us back to an even keel. That goods to be manufactured in the future—that is, in many cases now being manufactured —^will cost us at retail a great deal more than the goods our merchants are now carrying is too obvious to I’equire any more than a bare hint to all of us. One Discovery Alone Justifies The Statement- that L-K (usually called Liver Kick) i' the greate.st known prescription for high blood pre.s.sure, constipa tion, .sluggish or torpid liver. Many laxative.s and purgatives will cleanse the small intestines and give temporary relief—but that i.« not enough. Constipation is a serious condi tion and is directly respon-ible for more forms of ailments than all other causes combined. You can' give your lower or large inte.stines an internal bath and rectify the very cause of constipa tion. Dr. G. A. Foster tirelessly ex perimented for over ten years and found a combination of drugs which would reach the lower intestines without being absorbed. Hi-, unpaj-alleled success in this experiment may now be purchased under the name of L-K, which is rapidly gaining the name of a miracle prescription. Put L-K to the test and you too. like thousands of others, will call it a miracle prescription.

Sullivan.—Boston Evening Tran.s- cript. McNINCH’S RISE TO FAME Whatever his enemies in North Carolina may say about him—and i they have been saying plenty—alt 1 and sundry must admit that Frank R. McNich is another Tar Heel who has climbed to a place in the sun. He is a national figure that is taken seriously by the metropoli tan press—which is saying much for a man from this section of’ the country. In its current issue, for example. The Literary Digest features Mc- Ninch on its page entitled “They Stand Out From The Crowd.” .41ong with a pensketch caricature of Mr. NcNinch, which it reprints from the Philadelphia Inquirer. The Digest has this to .say; “Frank R. McNinch is full of dynamite and affability. A little, blue-eyed man with a high fore head and thinning gray hear, the new chairman of the Federal Power Commission turned sity la.st Apr’l A North Carolina ‘Hoovercart,” he fought Alfred E. Smith in 1928 and wa.s named to the Power Commis sion by President Hoover. His Scotch-traits are obvious, he .says, in that he is very conservative but decisive when he takes action. He has never been able to play any kind of game. For recreation Mr. McNinch digs ip his apple and peach orchard at his home near Charlotte, North Carolina.”—Win- .ston Journal.
