* OUR RALEIGH LETTER *
? ?
* By M. L. Bhipm?n
Raleigh. December I.?The polit
ick tlcal headllner (or Raleigh and
the State during the week waa the
announcement from Waahlngton
that the Preeldent had named Prank
R. McNlnch, Charlotte lawyer, a* a
member of the Federal Power Com
mission. Mr. McNlnch Is disliked by
the "regulars" because of his activi
ties as a "Hoovercrat" during the
presidential campaign of 1028 when
North Carolina "departed the faith"
and gave her electoral vote to a
Republican nominee for president
for the first time since General
Grant carried It 'way back in the
seventies. Two other North .Carolin
ians, former Congressman John H.
Small and J. H. Brldgers, of Hen
derson, Democrats tried and true,
were aspirants for the position and
leaders here were Indignant when
advised that President Hoover had
selected Mr. McNlnch to represent
the Democrats on the Power Com
mission.
The McNtaqh appointment was,
of course, "laid at the door" of
Senator Simmons because of his as
sociations with the Charlotte man
In opposition to Governor Smith two
years ago, notwithstanding the Sen
ator's endorsement of Mr. Brldgers
for the place several months ago.
However, to an Inquiry propounded
by the Henderson Dally Dispatch the
Senator replied that he had not
withdrawn his support from Bridg
ets; that McNlnch had not asked
for his endorsement and the only
part he had taken in the appoint
ment was to answer a call from the
White House making inquiry con
cerning the character and fitness of
Mr. McNlnch and whether the se
lection would be satisfactory to him,
a similar inquiry being made of
Senator Overman. Before receiving
the Inquiry from the White House
Senator Simmons says he had no
knowledge that Mr. McNlnch was
under consideration for the appoint
ment.
Apparently standing alone in the
North Carolina delegation Senator
Simmons has told the White House
that Mr. McNlnch Is satisfactory to
him. The Senator goes a step fur
ther In his reply to the Henderson
Dispatch In affirming that: "Know
ing Mr. McNlnch to be a sterling
and life-long Democrat, a gifted and
devoted North Carolinian of spot
less character, outstanding ability
and high ideals of public service, I
was glad to answer the White House
inquiry as I did." Despit this high
commendation of the dean of the
Senate a vigorous light on the
McNlnch nomination Is being organ
ised. Democratic officials here de
clare they do not want him to rep
resent them. They charge power
company connections, inefficiency
and disloyalty to the Democratic
party. Senator Simmons will doubt
less vote for confirmation, but un
less Republican Senators line np
pretty solidly for the North Caro
linian he will "hardly make the
grade." Senator Overman is hearing
from home and must, of necessity,
"take Care of No. 1."
Financial problems of Buncombe
county and the city of Asheville
was the subject of a conference
here between representatives of the
Mountain Metropolis and State of
ficials, Including the Governor, dur
ing the week. Aid of Stats officials
was sought in tkh attempt to iron
out some of the fiscal problems that
have arisen in Buncombe following
the failure of the Central Bank and
Trust Company and the American
National Bank In which were de
posited large sums pf public funds.
The hearing was before the Sink
ing Fund Commission, guardian of
all city, county and 8tate bonds,
and is composed of the Governor,
State Auditor and State Treasurer.
It Is supposed to have funds ?avail
able for a crisis such as appears to
exist In Asheville and Buncombe
county, provided ample approved
security Is placed for funds loaned,
but the delegation failed to secure
a loan to tide over the units of gov
ernment which had over 88,000,
000 on deposit in the defunct Ashe
ville banks Serious economic condi
tions ars reported from the moun
tain section since the failure of so
many banks t few weeks ago and
the Asheville folk suggest State
wide legislation to make such con
ditions Impossible In the future: On
this Oovernor Gardner is non-com
