Is trsasfai tad ? snaw Capital C lipboard There has been tome calk at lim that more lobbyists are registered (or this ses sion of the Legislature than (or any other Id recent year*. Thia could be expected - since so many different types of taxes are being considered this time. But It Isn't so, according to Secretary of State Thad Eure. He ought ?> know, for eech lobbyist is required to have his name In that book kept for the purpose In Thad Eure's private ' office In the Northeast corner of the Cap itol. "Checked on It the other day", Thad Eure told us last week. "Didn't count them, but would say the number ,of lob byists is about the same as in 1959 or 1957. Reason 1 looked is that I heard we had more of them around this time. About the same." PROFITABLE SCHEME Not all the lobbyists ? those men referred to (speaking of themselves, mostly) a s "members of the Third House" are yet occi^led, it seems. At any rate we heard one of them say to an organiza tion friend the other day words to this effect: "Why don't you all get that bill Introduced to put an end to *" The Organization Man said they had about given t^> on that one, didn't think such a Hll would get through, and they were not Interested in having Introduced in this ses sion. l lie U1^?IUMUUU won twuiu have made $3,000-17,000 for the lobbyist by having such a bill thrown into the hopper. The day the measure was in troduced, the firms sure to lose money or business bv Its passage would call their old friend and ask him to lobby against It. The fee would be a good one, according to the Importance of the bill, the strength of Its Introducer, the size of the firms hit. etc. But no bill, no lobbyist, no fee. Hence the conversation. It .happens. HELP WANTED The steady expansion of State Government or loss of females through pregnancy. Federal employment, or both, can be seen through advertise ments for "Stenographers for State Government" being run by the N. C. Employment Se curity Commission's local office In Raleigh. It is interesting to compare the experience required and the salaries offered, etc., with ditto for teachers. Here goes! "Must have at least IS months experience or equiva lent training in college or business school. Vacancies for engineering, legal, tech nical and general secretarial work. Salary range $3,132 - $3,996. Beginning salary com mensurate with experience and training. Three weeks va cation, 10 holidays and 10 days sick leave each year." The average school teacher In North Carolina - after four expensive years in college (as against 18 months above) begins work at a salary of $2,799 per year, has no free holidays, no sick leave, no paid vacation. Sometimes It does seem as tf the Lord has Indeed smiled on ite Old North Sua In per mitting us to have even aa good school system as tee have. The sge at miracles Is not completely pest. RUINATION Last winter one of our friends working for the State developed a peculiar growth on the foot. Thar* was fear of cancer. Testa pointed to msllgnsncy. A large protton of skin run ning deeply into the side at the foot was removed and skin from the leg grafted tD the foot. There was infection, but It soon cleared up and the patient was able to return to work with no 111 effects. This employee was out of work for nine weeks last winter ? with out losing one day of payl Had this happened to s teach er, she would have had to pay a replacement (almost her whole salary) and there would have been no sick leave, no petty leave - only ruination! SHOULDER TAP Time Magazine reports that "after working like a dirt farmer for days and nights, the new Secretary at Agri culture, Orvllle Freeman, quit his chores one evening and went to the movies." A while after he had sat down, somebody behind Free man tapped him on the soulder, "This", said the President of the United States with s grin, "is a hell of a way to write a farm program." AFTER TWO YEARS What happens to a town that plows if) Its main drag and turns It Into a grass-covered tree-shaded downtown shop ping park will be told by Mar vin Moody of the Kalamazoo, Mich, (which did id) at the 59th annual convention of the State Merchants Association in Asheville on May 22. How they were able to do it successfully (with plenty of offstreet parking) will be outlined the next day - May 23 - by Bill Barr, executive director of the National Park ing Association. Moody's talk will be: "Two Years After the Mall": and B bit's: "How to Solve the Parking Problem In Your Community." Bat tery Park Hotel, Asheville, May 22-23. TRIANGLE POINTER The newest . publication in these parts is a Utile weekly pocket-size magazine named "Triangle Pointer" and edited by Roland Giduz of Chapel Hill. We have seen two edi tions - and they look pretty good. The mag Is carrying a hefty amount of advertising from motels, hotels, eating - places, etc., from Chapel Hill Durham, and Raleigh. So far... it looks like a good Idea... and a good Job. Nothing sparkling, but readable. CATTLE DUST Death of Dr. J. S. Dortxm In Shelby last week removed from the scene one of die great State Fair managers of the nadon. The fair had been losing money for years when newly elected Agricul ture Commissioner W, K. Scott persuaded Dr. Dorton to take the post. Dr. Dorton, a veterinarian, had been forced to give up his practice because he had become aller gic to the hide, or fur dust of animals. Sen. Jordan Reports... By. Sen. B. Everett Jordan WASHINGTON - The recent events in Cub* ? and In con nection with Cuba ? have brought about the mostaevere teat yet of the Kennedy Ad ministration. In fact, the current crista is the most serious test the United States and (he Free World have faced since the Korean conflict. In every sense of the word, the battle of South America is being fought In Cub*. If Premier Castro and tbe Com munists are allowed to go un challenged in Cuba, then there is no doubt that they will take the next step of overnamlag all of South America. There- la no doubt la my mind that the people of the United States are ready to take whatever action Presi dent Kennedy considers nec eseary to blow the whistle on Castro and the Communists. Wisely, the President Is net making say hasty or impulsive moves, but with firmness he has put the Communist world on notice that we are no (going to ait oa ike sidellnse end be Just a spectator to what goes on in Cafaa. We have a cancer growing In C*a. We know it is there. and it is a question of when and bow we choose to deal with It I think the earlier we operate the better tor everyone concerned. In the final analysis, we have no choice in the matter. It la obvious that Moscow haa taken Castro under Its wing for the sole purpose of build ing up a tremendous military installation Just 90 miles off our coast. It we allow such plans to be carried out un challenged then we are In viting disaster. Cuba, I am certain, is only the first stage ct a long-range plan by the Communists K> take over South America coun try by country. Once they are allowed to get their Cuban out post in operation, they will use It to move to the mainland o t South America. We In the UnlKd States have had a long-standing policy at not intervening in the Internal affairs of our South American neighbors. By the same nhan, we are obligated not to allow other nations ? intervene. In my way of think ing, the Communists have in tervened in Cuba and It is to us to pwt a stop to that THE CHEROKEE SCOUT PHYLUS B. BABB, Mw N JBWB B??. 07 Hickory 8?r?C N^CawUaa.

SAYS * Some dme ago, I received an Invitation to speak n?n any topic of my own selection to the Civil War Round Table of the District of Columbia, an organization Interested in men and events of the Civil War period. Having been Interested for many years In the conflicting testimony con cerning it, I decided to speak to this organization on the "Religious Faith of Abraham Lincoln". In preparing to discuss this subject, I found that during a large part of his life. Lin coln entertained many doubts and disbeliefs concerning cer tain religious dogmas. I also discovered, however, that he underwent a spiritual evolu tion comparable to his evo lution as a lawyer, orator, writer, and statesman. As the result of his spirit ual evolution, Lincoln became a deeply religious man. While we cannot say with certainty that his every doubt was sa tisfied and that his every dis belief was removed, we can affirm these things with as surance: He believed in God. He had faith in the Bible. He accepted the doctrine of the immortality of the soul. He pracdved prayer. He re vered Christ. His belief in God as " the Creator of the Universe and as the Sovereign Ruler of men and nations was attested dme and again In his Presi dential Papers and Public Speeches. His faith in the Bible was demonstrated In emphatic words used by him during the summer before he was assassinated. On that occa sion he gave his long dme f trend, Joshua Fry Speed, this advise and assurance con cerning the Bible: "Take all of this Book upon reason that you can, and the balance on faith, and you will live and die a happier man." His belief In the Immorta lity of the soul was reflected with clarity in his letter which he wrote to his step-brother, John D. Johnson, while his father, Thomas Lincoln, was dying: "1 sincerely hope father may recover his health, but, tell him to remember to call it?n and confide in our great and good and merciful Maker, who will not turn away from him In any extremity. He note* the fall of a sparrow, and numbers the hairs of our head, and He will not forget the dying man who puts his trust In Him. Say to him that . . If it be his lot to go now, he will soon have a joyous meeting with many loved ones gone before, and where the rest of us, through the help of God, hope ere long to Join them." The testimony concerning his disposition of mind to wards prayer before his ele vation to the Presidency Is somewhat scant. After that event, however, he resorted to prayer with increasing frequency. He explained this practice by saying that many times he was forced to his knees, "not knowing where elso to go." His reverence for Christ was well Illustrated by two statements made by him near the end of his life. In accepting the gift of a Bible from a committee re presenting the Negroes of Baltimore, he said: "In re gard id this great Book. I have but to say, it is the best gift God has given to man. All the good Saviour gave to the world was com municated through this Book." In answering a question of Congressman Henry C. Deming as to why he had never united with a church, he said: "I have never united myself to any church, because I have founddlSlcultylnglving my assent, with out mental reservation, to the long, com plicated statements o f Christian doctrine which characterize their articles of belief and confessions of faith. When any church will inscribe over Its altars, as its sole qualification for membership, the Savlous's condensed state ment of the substance of both law and gospel Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and thy neighbor as thyself,' that church I will Join with all my heart and all my soul." When all is said, his secre tary, JohnG. Nlcolay, was not in error in his declaration that Lincoln "had faith in the eternal Justice and bound less mercy of Providence, and made the Golden Rule of Christ his practical creed." From Th? Desk Of Stata Saaatar HI. FftM taw - 33rd Dejro Member* of die Appro priations Committee from the west were noticeably absent when the very important sub committee was named. Legis lators from the east and piedmont loaded the sub-com mittee and they were appointed by an easterner. Represen tative Tom Woodard. It was thought Jones of Ashe County was s sure appointment; how ever, he. too, was left out; well known lukewarmers to the Saaford program. It could well mean trouble for better schools la North Carolina. The Seoata took a com mendable stride Tuesday towards reducing the tragic snd of tan senseless loss of life and Umb on the lacreaa lngly crowded and dangeroua highways of North Carolina. It passed aa outomobUe la specrtoa of automotHlea, The aumnobile Inspection act was pa seed several years ago but vary poorly administered, ienee to moot North Caroiln lana la having their automo biles inspected.

This should ailmlaaie entirely die reelly bad fee are of *e old Mil, at a time which would be convenient to them ? although not always popular, I believe thla automobile inspection act would be generally accepted by moat folk*. For a dme last Wednesday, Winston-Salem was die sate capital, and the coliseum was the state house. The House and Senate convened there and held a short session with some fire thousand school children seeing their legislature at work. Governor Sanford spoke briefly, emphasizing, as usual. North Carolina's for ward school program and again calling attention W the Importance of starting It now. We visited Hanes Hosiery Mill, had lunch there, and In the afternoon visited the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Plant and aaw their multi-million dollar plant. After that we toured Wake Forest College, and the day was rt inlawed by a dinner in the coliseum. I almoet forget to tall youabowt the vlatt to did Salem, which was dw first thing on the program. This his eric vllla?e is now being restored andwas very Interesting to see. Visitors - Mr. W. O.
