LAUNDRY BECAUSE
LACK OF BUSINESS
(Continued from Pago One)
laundry up until recent monthi, it i?
said. i j
Several months ago a Greenville ?
laundry concern began sending a
tiuck into Brevard with a new kind
of laundry service especially appeal- ;
ing to cafes, barber shops, drug I
stores, filling stations, boarding i
houses and so on. The Greenville con- 1
cern obtained much business here, it
is said, and this so reduced the vol- '
ume of business for the local laundry i
that Mr. Bromfield was running at a
loss, hence the shut-down. He is now j
taking the work of his customers to j
a laundry in Hendersonville and de
livering the finished work.
The people thrown out of employ- 1
ment because of the closing down of j
the laundry have no place that offers '
immediate prospect for work.
It is just another instance of big
business concerns "located in large
centers being able to offer a service i
that while appealing to the individual 1
customer, works a hardship upon '
that customer's neighbors and
friends, and directly removes so much
money from circulation in the com- !
munity. A ? ?'
WOODMEN MEETING j
IS NOW IN SESSION
!
The forty-second semi-annual con- j
vention of the Western North Caro- j
lina Log Rolling: Association, Wood- :
men of the World and Woodmen Cir- !
cle, began at the Skylar.d hotel in '
Hendersonville yesterday evening at
7:30 o'clock, with a large number of
members from throughout Western
North Carolina.
The welcome address was delivered
by Hon. A. V. Edwards, Mayor of
Hendersonville, and the response was 1
by Mrs. Ei'fie Rogers, State Manag- 1
er of the Woodmen Circle. An inter- '
ested talk was then given by Gen. E. |
B. Lewis, State Manager of the
Woodmen of the World. Several short ;
talks were given by various other
members of the organization.
Following those discussions a splen- j
did musical program was heard.
The principal address of the even- j
ing was delivered by Judge Barring- ,
ton T. Hill, Head Consul of the North
Carolina Woodmen. Judge Hill is
widely known throughout the state,
has been active in the work of the
organization for some time and his
spcech, dealing with the work of the
Woodmen and Woodmen Circle was .
most interesting.
A square dance followed in the Ball
room of the Skyland hotel. j

S. C. CONGRESSMAN ;
HEARD IN BREVARD
Congressman J. J. McSwain, in an j
address Wednesday night at the
courthouse expressed it as his opin-]
ion that the present administration is j
directly responsible for tfte condition
in which the country has been dur- j
ing the past three years. He main- j
tains that Herbert Hoover ha3 not ,
been faithful to bis trust and called
him a "Judas Iscariot" and averred
that the hands of the chief executive ,
have been tied by Andrew Mellon. j
McSwain jokingly discredited the !
statement that he is in line for a cab
inet position ? that of Secretary of ;
War ? under the Roosevelt regime. He '
stated that he is a poor man and that
he can not afford such position, for, '
he said "since I have been in Cong
ress only millionaires or these who
aspire to become such are being ap
pointed to these positions in the cab
inet, so that lets me out."
McSwain predicted a "sweeping
victory" for the Democratic party
from President on down and urged all
members of the party ? and other j
parties who favor Roosevelt and Gar- 1
ner ? to give their fuli support and ]
to vote a straight ticket in the coming j
election. I
Congressman McSwain was intro- 1
daced to the people of this county by j
Pat Kimzey. He is in Congress from
the Greenville district. j

DEATH'S CALL
Death has a way of opening wide
The souls of men that dwell inside |
What's the ease of chairs, the glow of |
fires,
And everything the heart desires :
Without our darling Billy.
' I
Billy was carried up the winding
stairs
That lead to rest from human cares,
No trouble does he have to bear |
But all is sunny, bright, and fair.
How we loved him none can tell
Others loved him, but not as well
As we who some near future day,
Will die and be on our happy way.
But God in Heaven knows the best
The same as Billy, he'll take the rest,
We're going to be ready an that day, 1
When we hear Jesus say,
Come ? A crown ycu have won.
Death i? but a mist that will blow ?
away
Before the breath of a Brighter day,
We only need to wait awhile |
And skies so gray will begin to smile. <
And Billy has a way of sending light 1
Across the cterknes* ?f night,
He will guide us on our way
To that land of sunshine play.
When we are old ana ealm and sane ;
Will all this too families pain,
Go away and let us rest? i
That always stays within our hearts ;
Time will tell.

A heart of wolf, but coat of lamb;
A pious face, but wicked sham;
A shameless breed of buccaneers

SPEAKS IN BEHALF
OF M. W.GALLOWAY
. I
To the Kditor of the Brevard News;
I wish to make the following public
statement about my attitude towards
the candidacy of Mr. Wallace Gallo
way for the Legislature:'
I am going to vote for Mr. Gallo
way in the general election and sup
port him with all the power I Ihave.
My reasons for this stand are these:
1. I consider myself bound in hon
or to do so, after I entered the Dem
ocratic primary. If a mar. wishes to
be free of party obligations, he can
easily be so by not voting in the pri -
mary. If, after he had done so, some
highly important reason arises* for
him not to support the nominee, he
ought to get a release from his ob
ligation from the nominee and from
the party organization, which I be
lieve will always be accorded him. No
such reason has arisen in this case.
2. Mr. Galloway and I ran on prac
tically the same platform and advo
cated substantially the same policies
in the primary campaign. --
3. I have no personal criticism of
Mr. Galloway's opponent in the gen
eral election. He has been a friend
of mine for years. But I think Mr.
Galloway can serve the county more
effectively under the existing condi
tions and I believe his many sterling
qualities will make a distinct impres
sion in the Legislature if he should be
elected.
4. At the present extremely im
portant time in national affairs, this
county ought to stand out along with
others in advocacy of those economic
reforms conceded by Republicans and
Democrats alike to be absolutely nec
essary to the revival of business and
the intererts of the average citizen. I
think Mr. Galloway's election would
put Transylvania where the county
ought to be ? in the column of pro
gressive Democracy, in whose ranks I
have voted and fought for thirty-sev
en years.

CHAIRMAN BREESE
SAYS FORMER BOARD
CREATED BIG DEBT
(C<mtinued from Pane One)
He exhibited a copy of the Western
Carolina Tribune, which, he said, is
published by a former Brevard citiz
en at Hendersonville, whom he term
ed "Jumping Jimmie." He accused
him of being a person Ajio will no* mf
come out in the open anSW*p?ess hi?
views in public speeches but prefers
to use the Tribune to carry his mes
sages ".Tumping Jimmie," he said
mada a trip tc Raleigh, and repre
senting himself as a press agent suc
ceeded in getting in to see A! Smith
during his campaign of 1928 on his ^
special train. He referred to an ar
ticle in the Tribune in which the
statement is made that the Asheviile
papers will not support Bob Reynolds
in his campaign for the Senate and
said that this statement was untrue.
Commenting on the story regarding -
numerous judgments against Rey
nolds, Mr. Breese stated that the ^
Editor of the Western Carolina Tri- W
bane had a string of judgments II
against him from one end of the state
to the other.
Mr. Breese went on to say that the
Republicans claim to be unable to get
a square deal in that school teachers
are not permitted to teach in the Pub
lic schools unless chey are Demo
crats Mr. Barrett, he said,
made this statement through the col
umns of a special "Rutherford Coun
ty Edition" of his Tribune and that
his hand was called by the Chairman
of the Democratic committee in that
county who pointed out to him that
there are twelve teachers in the
schools of Rutherford county who are m
Republicans and that one of them is
a principal and also a candidate on
; the Republican ticket for county
, treasurer.
j He further charged that the Re
publicans of this county do not hold
any open meetings to which they in
vito the public. The Democrats, he
said, always invited the public to at
tend their meetings and they are
. open and above-board.
