SGI YORK WANTS
NO'FOOLISHNESS
Man Who Captured 182 Ger
mans in World War, Denoun
ces Lindbergh and W heeler
American appeasers — “such as
Lindbergh and Wheeler”—are far too
dangerous to the United States long
er to remain at large, Sgt. Alvin C.
York, America’s top hero of World
War I, angrily declared Saturday at
Jamestown, Tenn.
His voice rising with feeling, York
said: “They ought to be shut up by
throwing them square into jail—to
day, not tomorrow.”
“We can’t risk our whole freedom,
our country, listening to them,” the
graying hero said. “When we all know
full well that they’re either looking
at the world through rose-colored
glasses or they’re downright Nazi-
inclined—and one is about as dan
gerous as the other.'”
Defense Film
York said the picture on his life,
recently released, was an appeal to
patriotisrri, despite charges by U. S.
Senator Gerald P. Nye (R.-N. D.)
that “Sergeant York” is one of the
pictures produced by Hollywood as
“war propaganda.”
“I allowed that picture to be made
at this time because I wanted to do
whatever I could to encourage pa
triotism in the youth of America,”
York said. “I didn’t have any idea of
helping turn out anti-Nazi propagan-
•' daut if Senator Nye or anyone else
th:s I did, that doesn’t worry me.”
m anti-Nazi, and I’m proud of
it,nd I’ll be glad to tell that to
thgenate committee investigating
wl they call ‘war propaganda’ from
Hvwood if they want me to,” he
comued.
'at personally,” York said, “I do
nohink anyone is howling about an-
tiazi propaganda from any source
eept these who are definitely Nazi-
,.:;lined themselves.”
Twenty-three years ago, Gen. John
J. Pershing, now 81, called York’s'
singlehanded capture of 132 Germans
the greatest single feat of a soldier
in the war, but York still lives in the
little. mountain home the people of
Tennessee gave him when he came
home from. France.
Every S-aturday he comes 10 miles
to the county seat, Jamestown, to at
tend the weekly session of the Fen
tress county draft board. York is
chairman, but his relatives barely
come in contact with him in his offi
cial capacity, for six of his nephews
and cousins have already become vol
unteers, and fvery few days a York
crosses the mountains to the Army
recruiting station at Knoxville to join
up. His own 17-year-old son is pretty
anxious to join, York admitted.
“Already in War”
“We’re already in this war,” the
sergeant always tells questioners who
ask him how long it will be before
we get 5 in. And the slow mountain
drawl always quickens when he adds,
“I don’t think we’ll need to use more
than our Navy and Air Force in it,
but if it takes everything we’ve got,
our freedom is worth it all.”
Six months ago the sergeant said
the Unitede States Navy should start
“shooting first and asking questions
later,” anid he said the speech of
President Roosevelt last week was
“the greatest he ever made.”
Returning to the movie investiga
tion, York said, “I think it’s just, as
much the duty of the people in Holly
wood to tell us the truth about Hit
ler’s outfit as it is the duty of our
newspapers to tell us the truth. So
far as I’m concerned, I don’t think
they’ve pictured the conditions in
Germany as bad as they could truth
fully have done.”
Sergeant York spent a week get
ting the consent of his conscience to
begin the World War career that
brought him to the bloody Argonne
and his still-amazing feat> but today
he said, “this is our country and it’s
up to us to defend it. We can’t do that
with any half-way actions or talk.”

Found Rest Room
Only at the Hospital
The Charlotte News reports: Fall
ing down a 20-foot elevator shaft at
the unfinished Federal Reserve bank
building, Lester William Huey, 19, of
Mineral Springs, was slightly injured
about 8:30 Sunday night.
It was reported at police headquar
ters that Huey, with Gilbert Goan,
was hitch-hiking to his home in Min
eral Springs from their job in Pisgah
National Forest and were in Char
lotte between rides.
In search of a restroom, the two
wandered into the unfinished bank
building, and in the darkness, Huey
stumbled and fell 20 feet down the
elevator shaft. Coan ran for help and
with the aid of flashlights, Huey was
brought out and taken to Memorial
hospital in an ambulance. He was
bruised and cut on the face an,d leg
but was released after first aid treat
ment.
Then The News gives this editorial
interpretation:
Mr. Williem Huey in all probability
would unreservedly endorse Item No.
3 in The News’ Hope Chest for Char
lotte. Item No. 3 is an uptown rest
room. Last night Mr. William liney,
hitch-hiking his way through, looked
for an uptown rest room. Not finding
one, he wandered onto the pitch-black
premises at the corner of Second and
Tryon, where the Federal Reserve
building is going up. There Mr. Huey
abruptly went down a 20-foot eleva
tor shaft.
They fished him out and took him
to Memorial hospital where it was
found that he was painfully but not
seriously injured. They sent him on
his way, and by this time, doubtless,
he and his companion have picked up
a ride and are by now so much closer
to Mineral Springs, where they live.
Whether or not Mineral Springs
has rest room facilities for the travel
er, we do not know. But in our
mind’s eye we can see Mr. William
Huey sitting with the Mineral
Springs lads out in front of the fill
ing station, and in our mind’s ear we
can hear Mr. Huey holding forth on
his experience.
“Boy,” Mr. Huey is saying, “that
shore took me by surprise. Me and
Gil here searched all over that dang-
ed place for a rest room. Being kind
of dirty from being on the road all
day, we didn’t have the nerve to go
looking in a hotel or some place
where everybody was dressed up. We
hunted and we him ted. And finally
we saw this place where they were
putting up a building. It was dark
as pitch. I went first, and was feel
ing my way along when the bottom
dropped out from under me. Yessir,
it was a funny feeling, but I got to
a rest room at last, anyhow. They had
one in the hospital.”
Putting a paper bag over one’s
head is said to be a good cure for
the hiccups. Not taking the bottle
out of the paper bag is a good pre
ventative for same.

Tl^HEN John Barton returned
from lunch and saw the un
usually large number of neatly-
typed letters lying on his desk slide
to be signed, he re-
CIJ^pT alized that they in-
eluded his partner’s,
'who had left for the
day after dictating
his morning mail.
I He opened his pen
with impatience and
began hurriedly to affix his signa
ture.
“Who is ‘B. B.’?” he suddenly
asked of no one in particular. Tom
Norton, the expert accountant, who
came in once a month to go over
the books since the illness of their
regular accountant, answered.
“The one with the pink cheeks,”
he murmured, adding up a column
lickity-split with the tip of his foun
tain pen.
John Barton arose. He seldom
entered the office reserved for the
firm’s women typists, but he felt
that a very palpable error he had
just discovered warranted the intru
sion on this occasion, and not know
ing “B. B.’s” ring call, he pushed
upon the glass door and entered
their domain.
He scanned the line of six busy
stenographers in a helpless attempt
to discover “B. B.,” and then, non
plussed, crossed the' room to his
own special one.
“Correct that phrase,” he said
tersely. She inserted the letter,
erased the offending phrase, land
substituted a single word.
“That was a bad break, Barbara,”
she laughed to the girl at the end
of the line, when their employer had
left them. Your mind must have
been wandering.”
“Pardon?” murmured Barbara
Beirne, indolently.
“You really have to consider your
context, my dear, if you wish to
avoid trouble. You wrote, ‘she
grinned,’ for chagrined.”
“I know it,” laughed the girl, “and
my little ruse failed after aU. He
hasn’t noticed me yet!”
Back in his office John Barton
wondered why the girl at the end of
the row had raised half-frightened
eyes as he had entered their room.
“Bet she’s ‘B. B.,’ all right,” he
thought. “Looks as if she knew
better than to make such a break,
though.” Then the spirit of criticism
started, he began to find fault with
the whole office force.
“Don’t we pay our girls enough?”
he asked his partner the next morn
ing;
“Who says we don’t?”
“I never saw such a bunch of
skinny girls in all my life. They
look half-fed!”
“That’s the way they want to
look,” rasped the partner, who was
pater to a near-skeleton daughter.
“Somebody ought to take them to
lunch occasionally and give them a
good feed, or they’ll fall dead on
our hands if they get much worse.”
“Why don’t you take turns ask
ing them? You’re a bachelor. I
can’t!”
“Tommy,” said John Barton next
day, “whom do you consider the
prettiest typist we have here.”
“Why,” said Tommy without hes
itation, “Barbara Beirne, No. 6,
with the pinkest cheeks,” he added
dreamily.
John Barton contrived to dictate
some letters to Barbara when his
ovm typist was late, and shortly
after asked her to take dinner with
him at the Sea Pavilion.
As they sat on the lovely pavilion
overlooking the sea, eating delicious
food and listening to entrancing
music, John Barton decided that
Tommy Norton’s taste was unques
tionably good. He appreciatively ob
served Barbara’s pink cheeks grow
pinker as the cool air from the water
blew upon them.
It was with surprise that John
■ Barton realized he was beginning to
look forward with considerable
pleasure to his occasional meetings
with Barbara Beirne, and it gave
him no little amusement to notice
a growing reluctance on Barbara’s
part to accept his attentions. Ob
viously she hesitated because she
must feel the difference in their so
cial status, he thought, and she
showed her good sense in doing so.
Many a girl would have openly en
couraged him. He appreciated her
modesty.
He began to dream of the time
he would finally propose to her.
Wouldn’t she be surprised!
And then one night it rained. It
came down in torrents just as he
was about to enter his roadster on
his way home for the day, and he
jumped back to the office for his
raincoat.
When he entered he heard voices
in the typists’ room, and the loudest
one was Tommy Norton’s, which
didn’t belong there; and the other,
a tearful one, belonging to Barbara
Beirne, and she was talking.
“But Tommy, you were always
saying how nice he was, and how
much you liked him, and I wanted
him to like me, too. I only wanted
him to like me well enough to make
him wish to give you Carr’s place
when he resigned, and when he
heard we were only waiting for you
to get a steady position before get
ting married.”
John Barton proved himself a
good scout when, later, he gave
Tommy Norton Carr’s positioa.

WOMAN ATTEMPS SLICIDE
T UCIA simply couldn’t resist the
' temptation to stand for a while
before the gorgeously decorated win
dows of the building which she had
been in such haste to reach. She
had boarded the 7:30 downto^vn car
in order to be among the first to
enter the doors, yet here she stood
transfixed as usual by the beauty
displayed in the windows. Stand
ing in bold relief was an old Chi
nese vase; Lucia knew nothing of its
value—that its reign mark showed
it to be a genuine Ming—but she
did know that its old green enamel
against that background of dark blue
drapery was a thing of beauty which
satisfied some need within her. A
jolly, fat, round pewter bowl, of
which she was particularly fond,
was still there, and a duc,k of an
old tea-caddy with brass handles
and an ivory knob; some wonderful
goblets—Jacobite had she but known
it—a pink luster tea-set and an old
sampler with exquisite stitchery.
How she loved them all! She had
formed the habit of coming to these
windows every time she had occa
sion to visit this downtown section.
Time had flown faster than she
realized and so it was that upori
reaching the offices of the building
she found five men ahead of her.
The switchboard operator nodded
to them one by one to enter a dool
marked “Private.” While Lucia
waited each one of the five came out
of the inner robm within five min
utes of his entrance. •
“He wants a man,” the girl at the
switchboard told her when she asked
to see the manager about the posi
tion advertised.
“I know, but you see I’m gbing
to try to persuade him that I’m just
th6 person he needs,” said Lucia
with the friendly, confidential man
ner that had won her friends ever
since she was three years old. “That
is,” she coaxed, you’U only
let me see him.”
The girl seemed appreciative il
dubious. She motioned for Lucia to
enter the private office, however,
saying, “Good luck to you, dearie,
but take it from me, he’s no easy,
mark.”
“I came to see about your ad,”
began Lucia, “for a salesperson in
your art shop.”
“How did you get in here?”
barked a voice from behind a big
desk, “I advertised for a man and
that—that—girl at the board knows
it. She’s paid to keep people out
of here and this is the way she does
it.” The voice had grown more and
rnore irritable as Lucia made no
move toward the door.
“But you really don’t know how
badly I want to work for you and I
thought perhaps if I made you un
derstand you’d let me try.”
“Work for me? Why for me any
tnore than for someone else. I’d like
to know? I never hire women when
I can help it. They can’t appre
ciate things that they don’t own.”
“Oh, but I do,” cried Lucia. “I
love your fihop,” she went on pas
sionately. “Your windows have been
^ust—just—meat and drink to me.”
If nothing else Lucia had captured
the attention of the manager and
owner of the famous art shop.
“What do you mean, ‘meat and
drink’?” he asked curiously.
“Did you ever,” inquired Lucia,
“live in one little back room, with
iorrible red and green and yellow
paper on the walls and with battered
golden oak furniture and a view
from the window of back stairways,
milk bottles and grayish-white wash
ings on clothes lines that are worked
by pulleys?”
“That’s why your windows are
meat and drink to me.” I love the
soft colors of the draperies and the
pottery. Of course I don’t know
the names of the old china and the
beautiful glassware, but I could
learn them quickly—really I could.
There are art books there in the
library and I could read them at
night.”
Lucia was breathless with emo
tion.
“How old are you?” he asked
abruptly.
“Nineteen,” said Lucia, her cheeks
growing redder and her eyes bright
er. '
"‘You don’t look it,” said he medi
tatively. “It’s the short hair and
short skirts, I suppose. By the
way, what makes you think you
could suit me? I’ve a reputation of
being a hard man to work for.”
Lucia smiled in her friendly fash
ion.
“I’ve always felt that you must
love your beautiful things in just
the same way that I do,” she said
eagerly, “and people who love the
same things always get along well
together.”
“If you really mean all that you’ve
said—” he began.
“Oh, I do mean every word of it,”
interrupted Lucia fervently. “I—I—
think I’ve been starved for beauti
ful things.” ' ‘
“I can use you,” was the terse
reply.
“I did it,” whispered Lucia joy
ously as she passed the friendly
switchboard operator.
While sitting idly at the big desk
the bachelor proprietor of the art
shop was thinking that of all the
women he had ever met in the 34
years of his life little Lucia, who
had sought meat and drink in his
windows, would make the ideal com
panion for his wanderings in far-of}
lands in search for the beauty ' »
A young- w’oman, aged about 20. be
lieved to have been a nurse, tried to
take her own life Monday morning
with bichloride of mercury, says the
Hamlet News-Messenger. She was
carried to the Hamlet hospital, where
at last reports she was resting well,
and on the way to recovery, although
she has not divulged her name.
A taxi cab she had hired for 50
cents revealed that she was picked up
about a half mile south of Rocking
ham and carrried five miles north of
Rockingham on U. S. No. 1. She en
tered the service station and pur
chased a soft drink, walked across the
highway into the entrance of the
country club. Mrs. Ritchey, from the
service station, saw the woman fall
and ,ran to her. First aid was render
ed, and the ambulance called, which
carried her to the hospital. '
In her suitcase was found a nurse’s
uniform. The hand satchel revealed
several photos of her in a nurse’s uni
form, also one standing beside a sol
dier. A note was found written on a
piece of paper from a Y. M. C. A.
in New York, telling she was alone
to blame for her act, and that she had
bichloride of mercury.
Although atteriipts have been made
to establish her identity, they have
been fruitless.
