Young vs Carlyle FOR CONGRESS \ In The Seventh District Two Neutral North Carolina Newspapers Speak For The People Regarding The Cancellation Of A Court Term! The following editorials, BOTH OF THEM WRITTEN ON THE SAME DATE, were published by two different North Carolina newspapers, neither of which have any interest in Robeson County's Court Terms. . THEY PRESENT THE HUMAN SIDE OF THE ISSUE. THEY SPEAK FOR THE RANK AND FILE CITIZEN From GREENSBORO DAILY NEWS May 7, 1948 OTHERS BESIDES LAWYERS INVOLVED No disposition has the Daily News to barge into the argument over cancellaiton of the May Term of Robeson Pounty Superior Court down in the seventh congressional district where at least one of the candidates for the seat to be left vacant by Representative Bayard Clark is essaying to make it a political cause celebre. But there does seem to be an element of general public interest and account ability in the incident. s Robert Young of Harnett County has charged that the term was cancelled in order that Solicitor Ertel Carlyle, his Robeson County opponent for the congressional nomina tion, might give his full time to campaigning doww the home-stretch. While Mr. Carlyle dismissed the allegation as "political propaganda," friends assert that the term was palled off because of heavy farm duties in Robeson at this season of the year. They point out that because of the late Winter planting season in Robeson, a predominantly agri cultural .county, falls just at the May term of court and that farmers should not be interrupted at this time. Offi cially the term was cancelled by Governor Cherry at the unanimous request of the Robeson County Bar Association. Without going into the merits of the argument or be coming a party to any of the political implications, the Daily News does think that this matter of cancelling terms of court, especially if and when a docket awaits disposal and defendants may be lounging in jail awaiting determi nation of their guilt or innocence, should be approached advisedly and dealt with gingerly. Fairness, the expedition of justice and the public interest should be determining factors. It seems to us that court business, schedules, pro cedures, et cetera, are left too largely to lawyers, their wishes, recommendations and conveniences to subordination of the general public and its consideration as such. After all the courts are essentially public business in which plain tiffs, defendants, witnesses, jurors and other lay folk have a transcending stake. Consideration of the Robeson County bar for farmfolks of the community is duly appreciated. But wouldn't it have been better if farm organizations, say, Grange, Farm Bu reau, county agent, board of agriculture or what have you had taken the initiative in asking for or at least concurred in such a cancellation? What we are talking about now is not the seventh district congressional contest but the man ner in which lawyers run a branch of the government which the general public established, pays for and patro From THE DUNN DISPATCH May 7, 1948 MR. CARLYLE IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ISSUE The issue of whether or not a criminal court term in Robeson was cancelled for the political convenience of Hon. F. Ertel Carlyle, the candidate for Congress, is still going back and forth. J. Robert Young of Dunn, another candidate for the office, has charged that the term was. cancelled in order to give Solicitor Carlyle an additional two weeks in which J.o compaign. Politicians of Robeson?including the court officials? are taking off the two weeks from court to ride around in a motorcade urging citizens of the district to vote' for the Robeson candidate. The Dispatch is not concerned with the issue?who had the term cancelled or why. Whether Mr. Carlyle was per sonally responsible or not, we are inclined to feel sure his Robeson friends had the term cancelled for that specific purpose. Our observation is that, if Mr. Carlyle had resigned as solicitor to run for Congress?as he should have done?? this issue would never have arisen and he and his support ers would not be so hard-pushed to find an explanation. Mr. Young set an example by resigning from his office as city judge to run for the office. It seems that Mr. Carlyle could have done the same. It certainly appears that if Mr. Carlyle had any hopes of getting elected to Congress that he would not insist on hanging on to a job that pays less than half the salary of the high office which he is seeking. . His resignation would have also given other lawyers of the solicitorial district the opportunity they deserve to run for his job in the forthcoming primary. "It is grossly unfair,"- pointed out Mr. Young, "for an official to hold on to a job and campaign on public money and public time while seeking another office that pays piore money." With that statement, The Dispatch will agree. We have absolutely no patience with those candidates who insist that the taxpayers finance their political campaigns. Friends of Mr. Carlyle deeply regret that he has brought this issue upon himself. As a solicitor, as an at torney and as a citizen, Mr. Carlyle has a fine record and is held in the highest esteem. But to allow such an issue to creep into the campaign isn't helping him get elected to Congress. Mr. Carlyle should resign; furthermore, he should re imburse the State for the salary he has drawn while devot ing hi3 time to campaigning. Then, he can campaign at ease.
