They do lot want many highly controversial domestic pieces of legislation ,'orced to a vote. With the voter's >yes riveted on their performan:es of their official duties the pulk of the lawmakers have no Uusions as to their ultimate poitical fate if their constituents issume they are just loafing in waiting only the disposition of iefense measures. It is likely that Congress will irrange to recess for the Repubican convention next week. Already many G. O. P. leaders from Capitol Hill have absented themselves in order to participate in are - convention deliberations. Sreat interest is manifested in :hs activities of the platform auilders now at work in Philadelphia. Judging from the flavor of ast-minute speeches by authoriz;d Republican spokesmen, the de'nese issues will be featured and juestions raised as to the ability pf the present Administration to lake over such responsibilities. The argument advanced by the minority group is that their opponents have failed in seven ^ears of management with social ind economic problems and by such reasoning could not be en;rusted with prepai'ations for or possible participation in a war. Some leaders want emphasis on :he single-term matter to direct public criticism to a possible third termer. The exact nature of the Democratic counter-attack is, of course, not visible at this moment. They are expected to write p platform taking into consideration the planks put forward by their rivals at the Quaker City, the identity of the G. O. P. standard-bearers and the developments in international affairs in the three week's interval between the two gatherings. As is customary with a party in power, the Democrats will have an op portunity of 'pointing with pride'' to their accomplishments as servants of the people and otherwise attempt to make a rebuttal to Republican charges of inepti tude and mismanagement. The forces also have some puzzles to solve. Their platform for a ticket headed by ohers than the President would necessarily differ in many respects to one written around their leader seeking the unprecedented third term. A number of Democratic Senators may prove a thorn in the side of the convention bosses. Senators Wheeler, of Montant, and Clark, of Missouri, are vociferously demanding that the party should not appear before the electorate as a "war party"?a phase of internal dissension, which may prove costly to essential harmony. The President and Ills "Inner Circle" advisors would like to have the legislators close down the Congressional shop when the defense tax program is out of the way. They arc aided and abetted by organized labor lobbies which are on the warpath against alterations in the collective bargaining acts as now contemplated in pending measures. The House dumped a proposed revision of the National Labor Relations Act on the Senate doorstep with the knowledge that Administration forces could preFor Registe Next Saturday, bring your friends, of Brunswick count ?nrvrl ? *"* /\nt? /^/m ltifi r i anwu 111 uui tuuiuy ?VOTL BURNIC BEflTTI BE COMFORTAB mer clothes that an and a real pleasure For recretion ai ing suits, slack suit: merchandise that months the happiest Brunswick County.

Now they are not so sure that the committee can retain control to this extent. The C. I. O. is threatening all sorts of political trouble for the majority party in the elections if the curbs on these Federal agencies are approved by the Senate. Adjournment' at the end of this week was expected to sound the knell of this and other controversial proposals. However, with the recess plan gaing supporters there j is no telling what the solons will i do when they return from the convention. The overwhelming vote for labor law revision in the House showed it was not exactly a partisan issue. While the Senate would like to evade voting on the N.L.R.B. amendments, the House, too, is anxious to avoid a show-down on the LaFollette civil liberties bill already sent over from the other 1 chamber. ..Many Senate ..changes in the original bill, particularly against alien-workers, are objectionable to the C.I.O. chieftain," s but he is expected to swallow 5 these pills so that the principle 1 involved may be written into j statute at this session. The La- . t Follettc proposal is designed to j [curb employer's resistance to organizing his plant. Back of all j these attempts to obtain favorable labor union legislation is the 1 tacit recognition that all or many j 1 of the gains in social reform may t be obliterated in the exigencies 1 of war. Already Army and Navy > [procurement experts are grumbl- i ling about the obstacles to quick ( [supply by reason of union rules I [and regulations. The tentative ' mobilization plan calls for the lifting of many statutory restric- < tions on employment. Obviously, the lot of our lawmakers is not ' a happy one nowadays. < - ?. * WAR NECESSITATES "LIVE AT HOME FAMRING" With the European war becoming every day more deadly and ( j more extensive, no wise farmer j, [needs to be reminded to "check | i and double check" on his 1940 j planting plans.

We 1 shall defend our island home and c with tile British Empire around 1 as we shall fight on unconquer- f able until the curse of Hitler is 1 lifted from the brows of man- 5 kind. We are sure that in the snd all will come right." In Africa the Italian armed ' forces are meeting with surprises * an every hand. Egyption air bases { were bombed incessantly and c more than 100 Italian planes were ' lost in a single day's raids. Ital- ^ ian officers and men in Ethiopia 1 nuddled in their barracks as the 1 native populace around them began action. Under the influence s if Haile Selassie, who is expect- ] ed to join them this yeek, the l negroes led continuous attacks i an the small forces in command. 1 No mention has been made of < Italian reinforcements, while 200,- t 000 British troops are reported to i have joined with the Ethiopians i in their battle. I The question has now arisen 1 over the fate of the French navy. At the beginning of the con- ' flict the land forces were put in charge of France, and England took over both fleets. Should England be able to retain the French navy this will give them ' a terrific advantage on the sea; if Germany should get control of < it, the odds will be greatly in her favor . . . With the fall of Paris and the retreat of the French to the south, where the German communique states more than 1,000,000 men are trapped, a new French cabinet has been organized. Reynaud is reported to have ^eft for America by plane while Marshal Henri Petain, hero of Verdun in the first World War, has been made Prime Minister ... The Honduran government of Central America has again published a decree banning political or propaganda activities by foreigners. A concentrated move is being made in this area against the Fifth Columnists ... In Turkey the forecast is with a bearing toward a Russo-German conflict. Russia is said to be favorably disposed toward the present Turkish regime and may result in a combine with the Allied forces. The German attack has proved that speed and power, in war, are of the essence. LOCAL B. T. U. TO GIVE PLAY (Continued From Page 1) Mrs.'T.

Where w! here are large numbers of such se oats stretched for several miles th p and down the channel, as has i th een recently observed, this beomes a serious obstruction to jn avigation. at It is requested that all parties ngaged in fishing in rowboats m r other small boats keep their M oats clear of the channel while re fishing and that they point the re ows of their boats toward the hannel for their own safety, as I /ell as to avoid delay to boats hc /hich may be passing. The ownrs of camps which have boats w or hire are requested to post his notice in a conspicuous place .t their camps and to see that S; .11 parties to whom they hire = loats are apprised of the fore- ~~ :oing regulations. B Persons having boats for hire, :s well as those owning them or their own use, should keep' n mind that small, low-sided >oats are extremely susceptible o upsets from the waves created ly motor boats passing in the waterways. The use of this type if boat in the Inland Waterway ihould be discontinued, as motor >oats, both pleasure and others, dying the waterways cannot be ixpected to slow up for the small :raft blocking their passage. In a court dicision in a case | nvolving improper mooring of vessels, the court ruled: "it is an ild rule of meritlme law that a vessel improperly moored or in ui improper place can claim nothng for damage she may suffer rom collision with another veslel." Hence, it is apparent that he practice above referred to not inly renders the guilty party lia>le to the penalties prescribed >y the law, but would also make t impossibe for him to claim mything for damages suffered. iecond Primary Election Will Be Held Saturday (Continued from page 1.) vill be surprised if Saturday's vote is within 500 of the 1500,'ote total of the first primary.

If there is no such named lurviving relative, the person or lersons who paid the burial expenses may be repaid for the ictual cost, up to six times the irimary insurance payment. In ither words, if the monthly insurance payment was $30, and :he burial costs $150, the lumpsum payment would be $150.
