He, under one title or an other, has Ixen in that service ever since. Later his office was in Lexington, more recently in Con cord and. since last August, in Charlotte. Basically his work is that of fitting thousands of square pages into round holes and vice versa, sifting the hordes of men and women seeking em ployment into channels for which they may be made to fit. Thus, a truck driver who has been handy with tools may find himself taking a short course in mi'chanical training as qualification for a special ! job as automobile mechanic. A bookkeeper may find him- self fitting ui!e well into the demand for a statistician in West Yirginia. (GUI'S Of AIDES j 1'ndiT Mr. Swearingen i- a corps 'of aide-.

Editor Waynesville Mountaineer: The establishment of a bureau of mines is in the interest of this section of our state, and should be of vital interest to th? people and influential organizations only our town and county for it rs only through the ceaseless and untiring efforts of the individuals and organizations that brings oppor tunity and progress to our doors. We know that Bill No. 294 for the establishment of a bureau of mines, within the organization of the board of Conservation and De v. lopment, was introduced last week (Feburary 26th) in our leg islature, to be located in the west ern section of this state. Senator J. T. Bailey, rert Renting Haywood county, among others, who is chair man of the committee on mining, introduced this bill, Waynesville could use this or ganization and it would be a great asset to our town and county to have this bureau of mints located here, in the county seat. We real ize that those representing other sections of the state, will, no doubt, make many efforts to procure the bureau in their respective dis tricts. By all reports, this west ern section peninsula'' or "jut" of North Carolina contains in its mountains more varieties and vast deposits of high quality minerals than any other section of the state, and practically all of them, at. this time, are in demand for Use in the manufacturing industries nil 'over this country, that are sup plying war iiiuipment for our 'lighting men, for the I'nited Na tions and our Allies, and for home land consumption. Our bureau of mines in Raleigh is accessible to all sections in the central and western districts. Way n sville is about the center between Murphy and Spruce l'ine and ! Burnsville, where large mining de velopments are in progress. We have the faciliti.s here to accom modate such an enterprise, we jare certainly accessibl - to the Imining sections and resources for jthe western sections, and we most I certainly need trained giologists for consultation, advice and in vestigation of all matters relat ing to mining anil mineral devel opments. The western part of this stat,, particularly, abounds in the minerals that are so vitally needed now, and will be for all time to come. Those people west of this way. much more we go that direction, ther east have no d o ville often, an, one hi Waynesville and tl;e mines oi, lake Very for consultation- Smoky Mountains By CHRISTY REGGIE Enchanting land of mystic heights, Cradle of history, and foundling of 'ame, I have seen you in different moods.

When Hitler came into power in 1 ;:(:. sbe left Germany for France and in '.t,'!7 she moved to Belgium and came to New York in l'.IHS, and from the latter to Waynesville two years ago. Mrs. Rollman outlined briefly the history of Russia, starting when it was a Slavic and nomadic base. She touched upon the class distinctions, the restrictions of educational advantages, tracing the causes of the r volutions and the ultimate goal of democracy for the people. She spoke of the libera ation of the peasants and what it had meant to the country. Slv also told of the economic developments in Russia and of their relation to the Various forms of government that had been tried out in the country. She pointed out that the Rus sians are an idealistic poofjo and that they have a great desire to cre.ite, and that above all they wish to be governed with eipiality and fa i rness.

All owners of mineral lands in this section are interested in the above, and they, like all our good citizens here abouts, would thrill to see smoke stacks and factories going full blast through all these rich moun tains. The procurement of the bureau of mines here would be an enor mous help to Western North Car olina, but the "work" to procure it cannot wait. Very truly, S. A. JONES.
