Can there be any wisdom in the policy of hiring men to go into the forests as an army of woods workers for the primary purpose of giving them jobs, and at the same time cut out agricultural workers who are on experiment farm stations and teaching the vo cational science of home economics and farm work? It can be nothing more than a move in the wrong direction. Certainly the forests are important. But the people are fed from the fields and not from the forests. So it would appear to us that it will be bet ter to stick to the side that feeds us and produces our wealth. What About Beer? What about beer? Who is going to drink it? Will it be the wise or will be the foolish; will it be the rich or will it be the poor; will it be the strong, or will it be the weak; will be the gentle, or will it be the rough? Which side will you take —the safe side of letting it alone altogether, or will you try a thing that millions have tried before and, after traveling all the way, have admitted that it has not helped their health nor increased their wealth. We hear some people say they want to taste of beer just to say they have tasted it. We hear some say they are not going to taste it so they can meet the judgment if it comes at any moment and be able to say they have not injured themselves in any way by drinking beer, nor have they an example to induce others to drink. If there has ever been a day when people should be taught the dangers of alcohol, this is the day. Every teacher and every pupil should be careful to keep away from beer. Every preacher and every church man should teach word and example the danger that lies, in the path of every person who drinks al cohol of any kind—not that every man is hurt, but many are ruined, and we can not tell who it will be when we begin to drink, because it will sometimes rob the best of men of everything worth wliil'e—can't hold what he has, can't hold down a job, and finally he passes out of life's picture. Every father and mother should abstain and teach their children to do likewise. In fact, every person of every age, every color, and of every kind ought to teach and practice total abstinence. No man will be the worse for failure to drink beer or liquor of any kind. . . ... _ We regret to hear and see so many people who take drinking as a joke and jest it through as if it was of little importance and not dangerous. Drinking liquor or beer is a slow way to pay taxes; it has no possibilities of building up honor and wealth for the drinker. It is only the man wh» makes and sell it who gets the wealth. Muster your best thought, based on your own in terests and the good of your country, and silently and reverently pledge yourself never to defile your lips with beer. Currency Inflation The thing most to the point the President has talked about for some time is the matter of currency inflation. If he will just put his foot on the neck of that gang of big bankers who have throttled down the flow of money through the channels of business and keep them from manipulation of our money af fairs, then business will automatically begin to im prove. Without more money or the cancellation of debts, there is no hope. Would Do the Telephone Company A Favor Bertie Ledger-Advance." We see where a civic club in Lumberton has pe titioned the Corporation Commission to hurry up its promised investigation of telephone rates. The civic dub says the rates are entirely too high and unjusti fied. We agree with them and join with them in urg ing the investigation, believing that it will reveal the complaint of too high rates justified and will be fol lowed by an order for reductions. In this territory a reduction in rates would do the telephone company a favor since the high charges it has persisted in main taining has caused many former users of their service to abandon it as too expensive a luxury. PUBLISHED ' (VERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY Protecting the Banks What is the proper way to inflate or expand the currency? President Roosevelt has sifted out all tbe bad hanks, so those now existing are absolutely solid, although they can not loan money under our present conditions, because nothing seem to have a stable value—and nothing has value because the banks can not make loans. v Now, let Mr. Roosevelt tell all the good banks to start loaning money to those who need it and have reasonable security. Then assure the loaning bank that the Government will take care of any runs that may be made on such banks, loaning them money from the new currency t now on hand on their good securities. This process would put idle money in circulation, raise the price of labor, corn, cotton, wheat, and every other commodity that goes to market. A part of our trouble is caused by money being held in banks, and without some kind of guarantee that no runs shall be made on them they are foolish to make loans —not knowing when a panicky feeling may pro duce a bank run. Now that we all understand that there are plenty of good banks, and with the assurance that the United States is backing them, we would be safe in borrow ing and loaning. Everybody knows the government is loaning money by the millions on security not half as good as the average bank requires and would gladly put up for some of that promised new money. Mr. Roosevelt, ,let the (Government handle (the money; loan it through the commercial banks of the country and keep it out of the hands of the New York Bankers Trust, which is robbing the life out of the country. Take The Profit Out of War Mr. R. R. Clark, commenting in the Greensboro Daily News, commends a newly proposed draft sys tem for the United States that is worthy of our full consideration. The plan provides, in case of war, for the Govern ment to take over and use such man power as needed, and also take over all the powder and gun factories, all the factories which produce war equipment; then work all drafted men in whatever places they are found to be the best fitted. If a man is found unfit for the front lines, put him in the forest or in the factory, put him on a soldier's pay and soldier's ra tions ; paying particular attention to excessive charges for machinery, patents, and the like. If such a plan should prevail, then folks would not IK- SO anxious for war. Nearly all the war talk comes from the fellow who wants to make money out of war; those who stand in front and are liable to be shot don't want war. If our government has the right to draft one type of men to go to war, it certainly has the same right to draft all classes of men on the same basis of serv ice to furnish them food and equipment to carry on war. Take out the speculation, and we will be in less danger of war. "I Have My Insurance" Richmond News-Leader. Many a man who has tossed restlessly at night dur ing the last two years has found comfort of mind and re|)ose of- nerves in the reflection, "I have my insur ance." Salaries may decline, employment may be lost, mortgage-payments may be beyond one's reach, but as long as the modest premiums on a man's insurance can be met, he knows that death will not leave his family penniless. Next to his religion itself, the home loving American has cherished his insurance during the depression. Last year, when the future looked so black, the fathers and husbands of America purchased $16,400,000,000 of life insurance, and actually ended the year with more insurance in force than when the depression began. That shows what the average American thinks of the protection his insurance gives. The mystery of how America has survived the hard times without starvation or revolution is explained by the one word, life-insurance. Men who would not have !>een able to meet their imperative obligations or, in some cases, even to feed their families in any other way, borrowed on their insurance and tided themselves over. Total payments of $2,600,000,000 in benefits of all kinds were paid American policy hold ers in 1931, or 28 times as much as was raised publicly for relief. What a different tale there would be to tell if the harried business man had not been able to say, "I have my life-insurance." Storms may come and pass and come again. We may never witness in this generation as long a period of fair weather as industry enjoyed in 1926-29; but all of us know that whether the next wave of prosper ity be long or short, a storm will gather again. The man who faces it without life-insurance is as foolish as he who sets out over deep water in an open boat and does not carry a life-preserver. Sr Criticism Christian Life Missionary. A man, going down a street in Chicago, came to a taxidermist's shop and stopped long enough to crit icize some of its ware. Scrutinising aa owl, he said, "That owl is not stuffed right; its held is not on right, the body is not poised right, the feathers are notfixed right; and if I could not stuff aa owl bettor than that I would go out of the business." Just then the owl moved. He had criticised a live owl. The Word of God lives. It is not offered for criticism, but is a guide to life aad a comfort in death. ' THE ENTERPRISE DR.
