Friday, July 20, 1931 Beware of Soft Words The National Association of Manufacturers i? get-, ting very tired of our government as it is now being run. The trouble has all come about because the gov I"' taken m-er the management of its oven affairs and has taken it out of the hands of dominat ing wealth?a thing that goes might) hard with the great financial powers. There is also a vast differeme in the line of thought and melhod of procedure as lietwern the government and predatory wealth. The heartless money trust has used experts whose only business was to get all it could out of the public and pile it up in dividends. The gocernment stepped in with a new line of thought and a desire to see that every man gets the proceeds and fruits of his labor, and has proceeded to put some restrictions on wealth by curbing its grafting power and extend the earning po'wer of our country into every home that cotributes to the production of the country's income. i ' Of course, the two per cent oftTuopeopte of the cntmlry whoMrwn-80 per cent of afl the wealth nf ottr - nation <|p not like the government's policy. S ou see ijitx.ic Uke. this, hen .the jjpyX'rnnieni looks at this ?SfflitH- two | HT yen I old asLs I hi-m nhere fhev vol it, they are embarrassed, liecausc they know they got il by unfair methods of business which were little or no lietter than robbing and stealing. All right, you OH |>er cent of the folks; you own but 20 |ier cent of the country's wealth. The other 2 per cent has the wealth and they are mad lie i.iuse the government has blinked their plans to grab it all. Take warning at what these 2 |>er cent are saying. They pose as your friends, but lielieve them not thry .or Mill yoU fellows that are trying to relieve you. Protecting the Criminal That article in the constitution which guarantees the sacredness of the home may have been a good thing in tint- i im- in a thousantf, but in the other nine hundred ami ninety nim- instances it has dens of vice "Not only are residences used lor boot legging and gambling, Itirt they are used as place* of prostitution and to house almost every other vice known and practiced by man.' It isn't the honest, law-abiding man who Wants the constitutional protection. It is the lawless that want to engage in. law-breaking who hold that clause of the constitution so sacred, men who have no rev erence for society and decency aml_ who have no re spect for law and order. The officer who enters a home or makes any other advances is liable for all damages done or all errors made The trouble comes only when they enter up on gangs of lawbreakers.? The conrtij have held that the officer is the criminal when he enters a house without going through a long process of having patters issued, enabling the lawbreaker to escape. It is unfortunate that we have laws against crime and a constitution that makes it almost im|tossible to delect and pros.-, ole the criminal, A Feasible Plan Mr. Coleman W. Ritberts, president of The t'aro linas, Incorporated, has devised a unique scheme to advertise the C'arolinas which seems quite feasible. He proposes to sell stamps describing all the his toric points and beauty spots in North Carolina, from Roanoke Island, the cradle of American civilization, to tjte "Skyland" of the western part of the state. These stamps will go to all points of the compass, telling why North Carolina is a good place to visit as well as a good place to live. It is Mr. Robert's opinion that if we ran get enough rich tourists to visit our state, they will go a long way toward [laying our taxes, a thing we all hope for. Certainly, North Carolina has enough attrattions to compete with any state in the Union, Why not put our state advantages for both resi dence and pleasure before the people. Man or Beast? Speaking of Hitler?is he man or is he beast? He not only ruthlessly kills those who differ with bim, but he goes further and refuses to allow their kimpeopie and families to mourn over their loss. Presidents Not Immune Even Presidents are not immune from family trou bles. President Roosevelt's family has suffered-the mis fortune of having several divorces. We, of course, are not placing the blame on Mr. Roosevelt nor his chil dren. Nov we find President Wilson's daughter di vorcing her famous husband. William G. McAdoo on account of incom|?atability. Of course, we all remem ber the suspicions about President Harding Grover Cleveland, who was a liachelor until he entered the Whije House, was charged with doubtful morals, which all (mints to the fact that neither wealth nor position insures perfect peace in life. It is unfortunate to have such easy divorces among the upper crust of society. It naturally leads those who are less prominent to get the idea that the dis carding of a wile or a husband is not so bad after all. Too many divorces weaken the moral filler of so ciety and carry us just a step downward. Men and women need to count the cost before marriage and then stick to their vows. A Poor Witness To Call Upon The Industrial News Service quotes the National City Bank to prove a statement that is not true. In fact, that bank has clone too many shady tricks to be htlieved. anyway. That bank's leaders are the same It Hows that sold so many worthless bonds to innocent investors throughout the United States, and also arc the same fellows who gobbled up so much valuable properties in Cuba, Mexico, and other I'an-American dominions and then wanted the United States to pro tect their ill-gotten gains, even if it took war to do it. No, thank you; the testimony of your witness will not stand in a court of intelligence and justice. A New Source of Taxation A new source of taxation-has shown itself by the recent union of the Atlantic Beach ownership. They sold their bridge and the state has made it free. Hut, la-hold, when you get across to the beach you cannot get to the ocean to bathe without paying a quarter. Now, let the state put a 50 per cent tax on their income and cut the maximum charge to 20 cents. Or it will be better for the state to acquire a sfWJr of land on the beach and P?>t a notice "Bathing free." Twenty Years After News and* Observer, ?Twenty years ago this morvth the World War be gan: Vet no one can say, on this day 20 years after, that the consequences of that ^conflict are even now drawig to a end. ff that war had ay. meaning !>e yornf saV ifcas'ariy purpose in its wag ing, WOodroW Wilson gave wind* to its moaning anil its purpose. He railed it a war to end war, and he railed it 4 war to make the world safe lor sell-govern nient. Now. 20 years later, the world is still full of blood shed and conflict. Men in many Countries have spit upon democracy and spoken with savage scorn of man's right or ability to govern himself, force has Ireen deified. Man has been stripped of his dignity. And in addition to these the world still bears, unequal to the burden. the cost of the war said to be past and of wars said to Ire coming. world make bitter irony out of Wilsons-statements that the war should end war and that war should re sult fn the safety of human rights. These statements are ironical today. They make a joke too grim to be laughed at. but Wilson did not make that joke. It was marie dcrpitr him by an American Senate and a -world?which?chose ttpractical politics"?rather?than idealism. How practical those politicians were is pretty well demonstrated by the fate which has over taken the world shaped by their |>olitics. Is it not about time that the world began to won der whether such idealism as proposes a world or dered in cooperation and good will is not in fact more practical than the "practical" politics" of the men who defeated Wilson's plans and made the war. which he na<l waged under a banner, merely a killing without purpose and the |>eace which they dominated no more than time for the breeding of new'conflict and new WUl. ; ? 5? ??:?' ? ? Wilson was lieaten, but there is no evidence at hand to indicate that the world won. There is, indeed, every evidence that the IS years since Wilson, who had won the war, lost the peace, have l>cen years in which the world moved in foolishness into deeper tragedy. Wilson's idealism, IS years after, still seems to offer the only practical way to world |>eace and World prosperity. The Nationalists have had their day, and a bitter day it has l>een. The dictator still struts, but he acts with a cruelty that makes evident his tears. At such a time in such a world no mitake will lie made if thrre is reexamination of the idealism which was repudiated by the "practical politicians.'" Indications of Better Times I'. I). Mclsa in The State Ever since former ('resident Hoover uttered his im mortal phrase "prosperity is just around the corner," all of us have been searching for signs of returning good times, l-'irst one thing and then another has been advanced as definite proof that every pot would soon contain two chickens'and every garage a new car. ' A lot of the new automobiles have appeared but there are still many pots without chickens, but the signs continue to bob up. One of the latest, and what may well become the brightest, is news that New York banks are making loans on real estate. Real property has always been the basis of all wealth in America, and when the bottom dropped out ot the real estate market, following excessive inflation, there was no way by which agriculture arid industry could be jacked up. Foreclosures on all classes of property brought distress not only to the occupants but to holders of many classes of securities.
