BipBCUPnON EATES Tmt in thfl State; |LfiO Oat aC^tha Stetob at the post offieo at North WOhesboro, M. G, aa saeoMl daas Matter andsr Aet of Marsh THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1933 A Word To Contributors The Journal-Patriot regrets exceeding ly ^at many splendid contributions from various readers on the subject of prohi- , bition had to be omitted for lack of space. ;These contributions were used when pos- rible and there was no discrimination .against anyone, each being fijed in the order in which it was received. Now that the repeal election is over, these contributions will not have the same reader interest and will be permanently filed for those who wish to call for them. We regret that every article could not be published, but the deluge was too great for the short time in which we had to use them. So if your letter was not published, it was not because we had any feeling to ward the writer or his views. RailroadbPraject The Charlotte Observer, whose editor, ; Wade Harris, has always manifested a real interest in Wilkes county’s^ develop ment, editorially comments on the local railroad reconstruction project. Mr. Haf ria aaya: -; > . , “It is an interesting railroad reconstruc tion project that is on foot in North Wil- kesboro, a new corporation, known as the Wilkes & Western Railroad Company, having made application to the Interstate Commerce Commission to take oyer the wreckage of the Watauga & Yadkin road and reconstruct and equip it for resump tion of business. This is a little railroad that was operated for a number of years by Captain Landon, and extended up a Wilkes County valley for 26 miles to a^ point known as Darby. It was chiefly used as a lumber road and had invaded a section of the biggest poplars this side of California. The road was doing a good business until the notable flood of 1916 came along and practically wiped it out. Proposition for its rehabilitation looks to a new era of prosperity in that section of the State. It is a prospect the Interstate Commerce Commission could scarcely turn down.” Has Served Well “Farmer Bob” Doughton, who celebrat ed his 70th birthday anniversary Tuesday, can look back with satisfaction upon a long record of public service. For 22 years, Mr. Doughton has had little opposi tion within his party ranks and a man has to be something more than a good politi cian to avoid competition from members of his own party. Year after year the voters have sent him back to Washington as their rejfre- sentative, showing their confidence in his ability to serve them and the nation. He has had a few close calls, yes, but that is to be expected in political life. But each time he has been triumphant and gone on to even greater majorities. Congres.sman Doughton has risen to a position of power and usefulness in the nation and his di.strict and all North Car olina have reasons to be proud of his record. Friends everywhere extend felici tations upon the occasion of his three score and ten anniversary. Sunrise No longer when we voice our faith in the recovery of American business need we wonder if we give expression only to our hopes. That faith which kept Ameri ca’s eyes turned toward the promised sun rise of better times is being rewarded. Whether this economic improvement now so tangibly evident can be credited principally to the National Recovery pro gram or whether it is but the fruit of that sound basic rightness which has carried America triumphantly through past finan cial crises is beside the point. The fact re mains that we have indisputably made substantial progress on our road to busi ness betterment. The sun is up. And so we are building back a new edifice of national prosperity. We are building it slowly, as it should be built to survive. We want no more flimsy struc tures built on fictions, such as that un wittingly erected in the decade following the World War. That toppled overnight. In its place we are building a fortress. ProgruM For Townahip Oonrea- tlon ABBOun^edi To Be At fov. *6^ The follow^ A.

The na tion has repealed the Eighteenth Amend ment to the constitution unless the vote of UtaK is different from early reports. Uninter vote is different from early reports. Uninter rupted, the repeal parade has swept on to vic tory and the return of legalized liquor, at least in many states, is a certainty. The caption of this editorial might be taken as an ironical allusion to a serious issue. It is not so intended. The spoils in this case is not liquor; rather it is the greatest problem outside the depression that confronts the American people today —namely, control. Repealists should be given the lead in working out the plan of control. The ad vice of all should be given freely when sdiight, but the millions who conscienti ously believe that the wave of crime and racketeering and bootlegging will be halt ed by repeal are entitled to a chance to see what they can do. The problem is now one of control of liquor. It is hoped by even tho.se who vig orously oppo.sed repeal that the cause of temperance will be advanced by the new statu.'-. It i.s hoped that effective means of control can be .set up. There mu.st be rigid enforcement o; .'-eguiatory laws. What ever the e.':p-n.se, ’here mu.st be no com promise on t.be quest ion of enforc'-irient. Tho.se who favored repeal and tho.se who oppo.sed it, except for a few radicals, were agreed on one point: They wished to do what was best for the American peo ple. They differed only in their interpre tation of the be.«t position. On one side were those vvho thought repeal preferable to the evils of prohibition and on the other side were those who believed that the Eighteenth Amendment has succeeded and would succeed if given a chance. It was no disgrace to be aligned with either side. It will be to the glory of all if the American people will now align themselves with the cause of temperance and sobrietyr Liquor control should be given a chance to succeed and no stone should be placed in the way of those up on whom the duty of enforcement of regu- lartory laws devolves. PAUL IN MACEDONIA Lesson for Novemberr 12th. Acts 15:36-17:15. Golden Text: Acts 16:31. The lesson describes a vision, a prayer-meeting, and an earthquake conversion. At Troas Paul had a dream- He saw a man from Macedonia, and heard him cry for help. Prof- Ramsay has suggested that this mysterious figure was none other than St. Luke, the beloved physician. This is an intriguing guess. But the main point of the incident is that Paul obeyed the summons, entered Ehirope, and so planted the seeds that led to the evangelization of the western world. Trday SOS calls are sounding from every direc tion. The world is in a sorry plight. The atmos phere is tense with suspicion, and electric with ex citement. War-clouds ar« gathering again on the horizon. Economic distress is universal. The proph ecy of the Master, “It must needs be that offences come.” has been fulfilled. A prospect of long-con tinued suffering looms before us. Therefore there is enormous need for the dedicated life Paul repre sents. Consider new the prayer-meeting held in Philippi b'. the river. Note that it was a congregation of women. This is typical of the modem prayer-meet ing, as well as of our Sunday worship. Women greatly outnumber men in the more spiritual phases of church work. It is a pity that this is so, for the Christian religion is a thoroughly virile interpre- arousing the interest of men in God’s Kingdom is tation of man’s origin and destiny. The need of patent. And 'vhat shall we say of that drastic midnight conversation of the terrified jailor who almost com mitted suicide? It is a thrilling story suggesting two truths. The first is that prison bars eamjot crash the .soul of man. Here we find Paul and Silas praying and singing hymns though confined in a filthy den. The second is that 'ft-hen a sick soul cries for r'*demption, the answer of Paul to the ieilor, if geared to the needs of the particular pa tient, is adequate.
