.**Round Up The Laggards And
The Cheats”
The National Industrial Recovery program
occupies the limelight at the moment and
many people who are willing enough to co
operate, if they knew just what co-operation
they could give, are anxious to learn all they
can that will enlighten them as to their indi
vidual obligation to the program.
The big drive for individual support is now
in progress. The masses are being called
iq>on to support NRA mranbers. Their sup
port will be in the nature of purchases from
those enrolled under the Blue Eagle and the
pressure of their massed opinion against
. laggards and cheats.
. Collier’s, the National Weekly, speaks edi
torially of the laggards and cheats. 'Hie
editorial is so timely that despite its length,
we reproduce it in full:
“For the moment business men are under
no violent compulsion to co-operate with the
government in putting into effect industrial
recovery. ^
"The law gives the President power to
compel co-operation and provides penalties
for obstructionists. Mr. Roosevelt, however,
has announced his intention not to use these
penalties immediately. He has preferred to
seek the voluntary co-operation of industry.
“The majority of decent men and women
are gladly co-operating. After all, every one
of every class has a solid, selfish interest in
the restoration of the nation’s buying power.
Only a fool or a fanatic could oppose the
purpose which the recovery act was designed
-^■accomplish. Nobody outside of bedlam is
.against the return of prosperity.
i' “Still there are some who are perfectly
▼ willing to let others make all the sacrifices
in any good cause. These gentry inevitably
come to the surface in an emergency. They
are busy now attempting to wrest mean ad
vantages out of the new freedom allowed un
der the National Industrial Recovery ^^ct.
“A more stupid policy could not be adopt
ed. Congress let down the bars erected by
the old anti-trust laws and authorized busi
ness men to co-operate in the solution of
their problems.
Many of these problems antedate the de
pression. Abuses, very costly abuses, had
arisen. Intelligent business men were ager
to clean house, but the old law called to-ope-
ration conspiracy and provided prison sen
tences for such conspirators, however hon
orable their designs.
“The recovery act eliminates all of this.
To stimulate employment and to increase
national buymg power, the anti-trust laws
are suspended. What was so lately forbid
den as criminal conspiracy is now desirable
co-operation.
“American business has never had so
magnificent an opportunity. The government
has in effect said: “Go ahead and show what
you can do. Settle your common problems
together. Abandon cuthroat competition.
Establish fair wages and decent conditions.
Charge reasonable prices. Take defensible
profits. You are free from the penalties of
anti-trust laws.’
-“The government did not say, however,
*Go ahead and gji) your employees. Reclas
sify them so that you can lower the actual
^ wages paid. Shift their hours so that they
are deprived of the benefits of a shorter
working w^k. Speed up your machines so
yw can get OUt more goods in eight
hours than you formerly got in te°- Exer
cise your wits to devise ingenious ways of
j acting your workers and the pubiifc Be
' to the national interest. Patted
jrour own purse while the pickings are easy.*
"The government gave no such advice and
, oeilher the government, public opinion, nor
jtbd heafeftt taen in. bualneM will tolerate
The same law which allows
new jfwedoffl to act in the public interest
“fabo provides the authority to iegtroy theee
rho refuse to co-oo^^.
“We ahall. ^ fortunate if it ne^er becomes
'^A^Scessary to inflict these b^ialties. Punis^-,

^The burden of enforcing recovery act
imd of r^toring.nontjj economic life must
be borne by the honorable majority in every
branch of industry. First of all, self-r^
specting men will be governed l?y the spirit
of the new code. 9
“Juatk^ intelligent self-interest and a de
cent rega;^ for the opinions of mankind
unite in demanding that every good citizen
exert himself—and herself—to bring about
that industrial recovery which is essential to
our national well-being. Hiousands of busi
ness houses have already taken the neces
sary action. The majority were eager to
co-operate in this great undertaking:
“Those organized in trade associations
have also the opportunity to exert pressure
upon the laggards and the cheats. Industry
has the chance to prove its capacity for self-
rule.
'•Members of a trade association know how
their associates and competitors in the same
industry are behaving. If a business house
is using devious means to violate the spirit
of the recovery code, word of what is hap
pening gets around. It is the privilege and
the duty of honorable men to bring these
shirkers and cheats to book. An unscrupu
lous minority cannot be allowed to nullify
our national recovery. The public interest
must prevail.
There is nothing in the recovery act and
in the codes adopted to give it force and ef
fect which it would not have been reasonable
to do any time in the past twenty-five years.
What is now being attempted and accom
plished is merely a belated effort to make in
dustry conform to the principles upon which
this republic was founded.
The restoration of purchasing power
means that American workers must be paid
enough for their labor to enable them to
support themselves and their fanulies. This
goal must be reached. Honest, energetic
men and women will not permanently look to
charity for their maintenance. If American
industry as historically organized will not or
cannot pay living wages, then inevitably
some more efficient organization of indus
try will be attempted.
“The recovery act is in a very real sense a
last onll. Business has the opportunity now
thoughtfully and carefully to do what must
be done.

After resting for two days we,
In company with Mr. Thomas W.
Ferguson, a farmer of this sec
tion, and Mr. Don Fergnson of
■Los Angeles, Cal., aet out on a
tour through the scenic moun
tains of Western North Carolina.
Our first stop was Lenoir, the
county seat of CaMwell county.
When I was In school at Globe
Academy In 1887 Lenoir was a
mere village. Now it Is a hustling
little manufacturing city. 11
ranks about fourth or fifth In
manufacturing furniture In the
United States. Our next stop was
at Blowing Rock, a famous resort
on the very crest of the Blue
Ridge. I have sat on the famous
projecting rock In the sunshine
and looked down on top of the
clouds In Globe valley while they
were having copious rains In the
valley below.
From here we wended our way

I have bad the pleasure of
sailing op the Hudson river on
the day boat, from New Tbrk. In
magnitude this valley is not in
a class with the Palisades, yet
the towering peaks on either side
of the Cove creek valley are
crossed the lofty peofts of a rug-
eoiially as fascinating as. the
Hudson scenery.
When in this section I always
stop at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
A. C. Mast, seven miles from
Boone. He runs, an unnsually
large general store and Mn. Mast
runs a boarding house. They are
the last word in industry and
genuine Southern hospitality.
From here we went to Boone, the
thriving county seat of Watauga
county and formerly the home of
the famous pioneer, Daniel
Boone. From here we returned
to Ferguson. Sunday we had the
pleasure of attending the family
reunion of the Moore family In
Globe valley. Here I met many
old friends and schoolmates.
Some I had not seen since 1887.
We returned to Dalzell Tuesday,

From the falls we crossed over

near Spruce Pines. We then
ascended the lovely valley of

famous for Its mica mines. It Is

than 50 per cent of the world’s

"Now is the time of times for self-reliant,
honest leaders of industry to assert them
selves and to work with one another and the
government. Observe the law, exert pres
sure on others to abide by its spirit, and aid
in restoring the prosperity of the nation.
The opportunity is here today. It will not
linger indefinitely.”
Better Mail Service Needed
Efforts to obtain a better out-going mail
service for North Wilkesboro should not be
abandoned. Under our present arrangement,
the two mails leaving the city for the Pied
mont section depart so close together that
either mail could be eliminated without seri
ous impairment to the service.
The facts are these: If at 7 o’clock in the
morning we desired a package from Winston-
Salem, we write a letter for it. The letter
goes off in the afternoon and arrives in
Winston-Salem about 6 p. m. By that time
the house from which we desire the service
is closed. The next morning, Mr, Business
Man gets his mail and puts our package in
the postoffice. But there is no mail leaving
for North Wilkesboro that day. It left be
fore he got the package ready. In conse
quence, we wait until ihe following day for
our package.
Surely some better arrangement can be
made. -By all means, there should be a morn
ing mail leaving North Wilkesboro. Our
civic organizations will be rendering a real
service if they keep hammering away on
this proposition until some favorable action
is taken.

"I was very thin and pale,"
writes Mrs. F. H. Scott, of Roa

"My mother had taken Cardnl,
