I THEGLEANER ; GRAHAM, N. C., JULY 5, 1945. | J ISSUED EVERT THURSDAY 1 J. D. KERNODLE, JR., Manager TTOO A YEAR IN ADVANCE Entered at the Pietofflce at Graham, N. C.. as seccnd-claae matter. LOOKING ! AHEAD n GEORGE S. BENSON k PmUut?Httduf CtUtft ? Sunjr. JntiMtu Who May Think? Stopped by a traffic signal whila driving in a narrow, busy street a few days ago, my ear caught a fa miliar, musical note. Just beyond the sidewalk, through a big, open door, a blacksmith was shaping shoes for a farmer's heavy team. Horns behind me suggested moving along before I had finished looking, but it was an inspiration to watch this workman, so skillful and ener getic. Moving-picture blacksmiths are elderly gentlemen with droopy mus taches, but not this man. He was about 30, clean shaven and active. The tempo of his hammer was live ly. The hopeful picture he unwit tingly posed of post-war America has come to mind several times since. More recently I have been listen ing to men discuss post-war plans that invnlvoH mnnlrtino niihlio nni rv_ ion. Fabricating Sentiment "Knowledge is Power." The worda ?re supposed to have flowed from the pen ot Francis Bacon about 300 years ago, but I think Bacon lifted ?hi? choice bit of wisdom from Solo mon: Proverbs 24-5. It has stood the test of time. Popular sentiment can be moulded. No informed per son will deny it. Hitler did it. Na tional leaders do it all the time,* consciously or unconsciously, lor better or for worse. For eleven years in China I watched selfish local war lords ex ercise their power over a patient, toiling peasantry. It could be done easily where the great mass of the people were unlearned, as in China, where 80% could neither read nor write. Unlearned masses sometimes rebel, but they usually fail because the energy they exert is not power; only ill-directed force. Common Sense of Most For 156 years the United States has prospered and grown as a re public. This is superior to a democ racy in that it provides for the safe ty and protection of minorities. A democracy places the minority at the mercy of the majority, some times Just as heartlessly as a dic tatorship. Thdt is why minorities have retained freedom in Amer ica; why each individual is still free to think for himself. It is impossible to get a corner on a nation's ideas. Every man and woman has a brain and there is only one way to keep them from utilizing these assets to enrich them selves and the whole race, namely, keep 'em ignorant. The American way is the other way: schooling is free: libraries are ev?r?)i?r. press and radio prosper keeping people informed. Our people have knowledge and our nation has power. As Offensive Figure A country, whose leaders want the benefit of the best thinking of the whole nation, is on Its way up. A nation that confines its thinking and planning to boards and bureaus is on its way down. Central planners rea son thus: "The blacksmith has a head on him, but so does his ham mer. Why bother about eitherT We will do the thinking and the plan ning." Germany planned for the whole ml her people, but her wages were only half as high as American wages in 1939. Russia does governmental planning for all of her people. Wages there were about one-sixth of Amer ican wages in 1939. I am for keep ing our Republic, for drawing on the intelligence of our entire population and for keeping a well apd correctly informed public. "Knowledge is Power." r Per Capita Income I Doublet Since 1939 Average Income per capita more than doubled throughout the United States during the five year period from 1933 to 1943, rising from $311 to an all-time high of $1,031 last year, or 83 per cent more than dur ing the "boom" year of 1939, the Federation of Tax Administrators re pons. The $911 figure represents the so called business "recession" of 19SS, which brought income ?payments down to the 1931 level. Highest income payments on a per capita basis in 1938 were received by persons in the District of Colum bia, the payments averaging $1,011. Among the states, they ranged from t a low of $194 in Mississippi to highs at $796 in Nevada, $7? in New York, $747 in New jersey. In 1941, per capita income pay ments ranged tram $494 in Missis sippi to $1,463 hi Connecticut (In California, Nevada, Washington and Delaware, average income eras high er in 1941 than in New York, New Jersey and the District of Cohim ^.) Lt. Elmer Erector and daufhter, Rebecca Ann, Port Arthur, Texas, in happy reunion. A bomber pilot, Lt. Proctor was shot down over Germany and returned to this country aboard the Grlpsholm. He is presiding (or her future with War Bonds. S/Sgt. Floyd M. Chad wick. Chicka du, Okla., displays fli| captured dur ing fighting in Italy, aa he recovers from wounds. "I think all the boys In my outfit bought bonds," he said re cently. "We will have substantial nest-eggs when this war Is over." T/8ft. Leo J. Hudf eons, Sao An tool*, Texas, whose left leg became para lyzed by sniper's ballets, lay 14 days on battle&eld and- was then taken pris oner by Germans, phones his wife that he bought War Bonds while on "the sidelines." Pvt. W. H. Edwards, Hayii, Mo., flsd he can still bay War Bonds for wife and six children while awaiting artificial leg. He lost his leg in Euro pean action, Nasi wired him as a booby trap and he lay 70 boors on field. T/4 Jamei O. Kahlo, Los Angeles, Calif., wounded In Luxembourg and transferred to McCloshey Hospital, wears rray beard as evidence of his hardships. "There is no better invest ment than War Bonds," he says. V. S.
