Slalrd to 1m* Fought Out at October Term CLERK SIGNS ORDER Differences between the Eliza beth City Hotel Corporation and th?' Associated IloteU, Inc., wMch | came out Into th? open recently I with the filing of a suit by the ho tel corporation alleging breach of contract on the part of the de fendants, will b?* fought out at the ' October term of Federal Court here. It was learned today. The Associated Hotels, Inc., through their attorneys, Thomp son & Wilson, of this city, ob tained an order Tuesday from' Ernest L. Sawyer, clerk In Super-! lor Couri here, removing the case to Federal Court. Mr. Sawyer signed the order on the basis of J evidence that the action was be tween residents of separate States, and involved more than $3,000. Members of the law firm of Eh ringhaus & Hall, of this city, rep resenting the Ellzabeh City Hotel Corporation, offered no comment today on this latest turn in litiga tion. The corporation seeks can cellation of a lease with the As sociated Hotels, Inc., formerly the | William Foor Hotel Operating j (Company, on the ground that the! terms of the lease already have' been violated by the lessors. The1 latter vigorously deny that, de-j daring they are ready to operato( the new Virginia Dare Hotel here> whffn?Hf?r It, <4. anrt fur-1 nlshed. Meanwhile, among the 636; stockholders in the hotel there are many who voice a feeling of relief, over the fact that the case will bej tried in Federal Court, for thej reason that the docket In that) court Is normally light, and the, suit will be tried and disposed of,i in all probability, during the ap proaching term, which will begin] Tuesday, October 11. Wth the congestion of the civil'i docket in Superior Conrt, the suit normallywould not have come up for trial until some indefinite fu-j ture term, possibly two or three year* from now. It was explained.! Veteran Raised Big Membership For Organizations "Relieve It or not" ayas Con federate Veteran J. A. Matthews.

"I have 10 children?six daugh ters and fouv *ona? 84 grand children. and 98 great grand children." "I'm going to take that yarn home and tell it to The Daily Ad vance." said Mr. Matthews. "All right," unswered Mr. Ron durant, "I'll write It down for you and you can show It to them In my, handwriting." So Mr. Matthews brought the atory to The Advance and a copy of it is going to Mr. Rondurant at High Point. Mr. Matthews, by the way. has no children of his own. but he brOught up ' Rill C."

"Mob madness, even... though world wide," lie said, "cannot cow America or divert the law from pursuing a constitutional course. Prom all points of the compass come bewildering reports of anti American manifestations by Inter national Communist n.' We are witnessing an amazing demonstra tion of organized radicalism or Itussianlsm which takes the arro gant position that no representa tive radical shall sufTer the pen alty of ilie law. Open threats are being made against America, should the law be permitted to take It* course In this instance. " Responsible French newspa pers declare that the relations be tween the two nations are Imper illed by this verdict of Massachu setts court.

Whatever may be our sympathies with these two condemned aliens they have been found guilty of murder and entitled to the extreme penalty of the law. A brave and honest Christian governor of the slate of Massachusetts assisted by a council of three eminent public ist* of trained minds and stout hearts reviewed the case and con firmed the verdict of the court*. "It must be understood by the whole world that America is a nation of law and not to be inti midated by popular clamor at home or abroad. Wo shall do what is right In K(|n of conse quences.
