News and Comment From Raleigfe
By
THOMPSON GREENWOOD
G. O. P. ? The Republicans ? and
there is still a good scattering of
them in Democratic North Caro
lina ? are showing much interest in
their convention to be held in Char
lotte on Thursday, March 16, than
in several years. There is a rea
son. Republican political pie in
the South has had very litUe fill
ing ? pitifully little during the past
11 or 12 years ? but there is some
chance for improvem^i^during the
next year. Now this is said with
all due respect lor the Democrats;
but if the Republicans elect a Prea
ident and can bring 10 per cent
as much Republican money to
North Carolina during the next
four years as the Democrats did
during the first year after they
came into power in 1933, they need
not worry one minute about any
expenses incurred in attending the
convention.
CONVENTION? The Democrat*
are going to decide when to hold
their State convention around Feb
ruary 24, it seems. Chances are?
in fact it is safe to say definitely
? the convention will be held be
fore the primary, which comes dur
ing the last week in May. Back
in the good old days the conven
tion was held during the hottest
day of the year, and the day serv
ed as a sort of honeymoon for the
new Governor. However, times
change.
If memory serves correctly, the
first convention held before the
nrimary came at the end of Ch
Max Gardner's administration. The
convention that year (1932) came
between the first and second pri
mary. The battle was between J.'
C. B. Ehringhaus, who is now prac
ticing law in Raleigh, and R. T.
Fountain, who now lives in com
fortable semi-retirement in Rocky
Mount. Although at that time the
next Governor had not been nomi
nated, Ehringhaus led Fountain by
around 50,000 votes in the first
primary and he and his followers
were the bosses of the convention.
Of course, back of them was Gov
ernor Gardner.
But whereas the old conventions
were more or less receptions for
the new State leaders, the modern
ones are going-away parties for
the retiring leaders; and whereas
the old conventions served to heal
wounds suffered within the party
during the primary, the new ones
merely serve to draw the lines of
battle.
Rumors are that Governor
Broughton has been asked to per
mit the convention to follow the
primary, but he is inclined rather
strongly to follow the recent trend.
However, thefce a<^e still thousands
of Democrats u?$ftis State who will
tell you that^fre-primary conven
tions are bad for party unity.
RADIO ? Look for some straight
talk from Cameron Morrison when
he formally launches his campaign
for the Senate. If you have follow
ed his career for the past 40 years,
you know he can get a few things
said now and then. Well, he is
going to "get 'em told" via several
state-wide radio hook-ups within
the next 10 weeks. He will not
move from county seat to county
seat, but will go directly to the
people with some facts which
should prove somewhat shocking.
Mr. Hoey will likely be able in his
Southern - gentleman manner to
withstand the attacks ? but the 1
i campaign will not be an easy one.
| j,- ?
ECTC ? Look for some changed
around Eastern Carolin Teachers
College at Greenville. There has
been some bad feeling there among \
the members of the faculty for j
several months, they say, and it '
I is about to come to a head. All
sorts of stories about the investi
gation underway are flying. Vir
tually the entire probe is being
conducted by a State Bureau of
Investigation man and a State
auditor.

al Walker, who took the second
class mailing privilege? away from
"Esquire" magazine several weeks
ago, is, ironically enough, quite a
Beau Brummell. He was dressed
fit to kill at the Jackson Day Din
ner held in Raleigh recently. A lot
of the newspaper bovB had planned
to corner him and ask him what in
thunder he meant by interfering
with their Varga girls with Phil
Stack veroofl. Somehow, though,
they forgot ? and they still regret
it.
VETERANS ? The number of
disabled veterans coming back
home to the Old North State each
month is strictly on the q. t. It is
larger than you think ? most of
them nervous cases. R. C. God
win, veteran employment repre
sentative for North Carolina, has
charge of getting jobs for these
fellows. The size of his task is
growing daily; but each case re
ceives minute, careful attention.
The State should be proud of him.
