Kilpatrick of Brevard has been appointed county chairman of the president’s ball committee for Transyl vania. and Mrs. J. E. Osborne chairman 1 at Rosman. The annual affair will be given with in a few weeks, date and place to be announced later. Mr. Kilpatrick, in announcing tentative plans for the ball makes the following statement: Somebory—nobody connected with the white house, with politics, or with Mr. Rosevelt—asked me the become chair man of a committee to provide a fund to fight Infantile paralysis In Transyl vania County. There Is one slight re action which Is both curious and un usual. I find a very distinct resist ance. It Is apparently based on the fact that a program to finance a simi lar fight started several years ago, with a series of birthday balls celebrating the president’s popularity. Funds col lected above expenses provided money to improve conditions at Warm Springs and for medical research Into the as yet undiscovered causes of this dis ease. I saw some of that and certainly ap proved it, It wa sshowmanshlp In a good cause. But what Is being tried this year Is very different. It attempts to set up a permanent fund to carry the fight Into every county and make It continuous. The main Idea Is, during January to secure small contributions from people who cannot afford to make large ones. The effort Is completely non-polttlcal and non-personal. As has been mentioned here before, the question of getting sufficient medi cal attention for the poor by having them contribute a little In the nature of Insurance from day to day. In_ilic hope of receiving medical aid when j necessity comes, has become foremost In national attention, I have seen this popular demand growing constantly. Resistance to It from the more con servative groups of the medical profes sion under the epithet, "socialized med icine” seems as unwise as It Is unkind. This new resistance against the drive to provide some kind of clinical ser vice for the piteous sufferers of In fantile paralysis does not come from the medical profession, but It seems even more unkind. It Is made on the ground that the effort Is too closely personalized and tied up with the President’s wel lknown suffering from the same disease. The effort In Bre vard and. aes I am told, everywhere, will not be based on the circumstance that the president was once a victim of this disease or that the day of the end of the drive happens to be his birthday. It will be conducted on ex actly the theory of the attempts to provide funds to combat tuberculosis and cancer. It has no POLITICAL or personal aspect whatsoever. New Year Event Very Quiet In Community The New Year was ushered In here very orderly Sunday morning, with only a few firecrackers popping, and very little noise, comparatively speaking.

BUNCOMBE COUNTY SEEKS LIQUOR LAW Special Election Asked For By Whiskey Interests Around Asheville Buncombe county will In all probab ility hold an election within the next few months to decide the question of operating ABC liquor stores In Ashe ville and the county. Petitions requesting the special elec tion have been circulated in Buncombe for a week, and the parties in charge state that they secured the required number of names making it mandatory upon the board of commissioners and election board to call an election with in less than a week’s time. The petitions ask the county board of elections to "call a special liquor election for Buncombe county and thereby submit to the oualifled voters of said county the question of setting up and operating In said county a liq uor store, or stores, as provided in chapter 49 of the public laws of 1937.” C. S. Alley, taxi cab company man ager, Is directing the distribution of the petitions, and E. Zeph Roy, Ashe ville attorney, is attorney for the group. Under provisions of the 1937 act, a special election on the question “shall be called in such county by the board of elections of such county only upon the written request of the board of county commissioners therein, or upon a petition to said board of elections signed by at. least 15 percent of the registered voters In said county that voted to sign the petitions. There were 82,674 votes cast in Buncombe county for governor in 1938. After the petitions have been pre sented to the board of elections. It will bo necessary for the board to verify the names and qualifications of the sign ers to vote. In the event liquor stores should be established in Buncombe county, the profits would be split between the city and county under provisions of a spec ial act of the 1937 legislature. The division of profits would be determined by the city manager and chairman of the county board of commissioners, but in no event would the city "receive less than 40 per cent,” under provi sions of the state law. Weather Prophets Say Fine Climate Assured For Next Four Months Many there are In Transylvania county who hold to the age-old belief that the first twelve days of the New Year each rule one month In the year. If this ruling be true, then January, February, March and April will be the kind of weather that causes home-, lovers to start puttering about the flower garden, and the truck-growers to get down seed catalogs and begin planning just which vegetables shall be planted where and when. Another school hold that first twelve days after Christmas make up the ruling monthly calendar, and taking this as true, July, August, September and October will be hot, dry. and windy.
