Experienced Legislators
To Make Up 1941 Semite
1
1
Raleigh, April 25.?The 1241 Sen
ate will have no more than one-third
repeaters from the 1939 session, but
it will be a body composed of experi
enced legislators just the same.
A summary of candidates for the
50 seats shows that only 16 members
of the 1939 Senate are again candi
dates, but in addition there are seven
1937 Senators, six 1939 House mem
bers, three 1935 House members and
one 1933 Senate member, running for
nomination.
Only five of the 1939 incumbent
are unopposed for renomination, but
the other sitting members are gen
erally regarded as favorites to win
out this year.
The favored five who don't have
to worry about the May primaries are
W. G. (Cousin Wilie) Clark, of Edge
combe, who has been a Senator for
years and years; Dr. T. W. Long, of
Halifax, who recently effected a peace
pact with his inveterate political riv
al, Julian Allsbrook; Willie Lee
Lumpkin, energetic liberal from
Franklin who can lose in Raleigh, but
never in Franklin; Joe Blythe, of
Mecklenburg, whose prowness as a
vote-getter scared off all rivals; and
Gordon Gray, Forsyth publisher and
financier who impressed as a fresh
man last term.
There probably isn't any intended
nrmncif-triTT to Rrad Fearine* of Dare
or John D. Larkins, jr>> 0f Jones,
but. both are in multi-county dis
tricts which elect two Senators and
where voting- is general and not con
fined to one county?as it is in many
other cases.
1937 members who couldn't run in
1939 because of agreements but who
will be unopposed this time are Ar
chie Gay of Northampton, Boy Rowe
of Pender, Jeff Johnston of Samp*
son.
Other unopposed candidates include
Van S. Watson, Nash; Horace E.
Stacy, Robeson; P. D. Long, Person;
J. L. Wilson, Davidson; R. Gregg
Cherry, Gaston; Wade Matheny,
Rutherford; Harry Miller, Alexander;
J. Henry Hill, Catawba; Otto Alex*
ander, Transylvania and Ed Whita
ker, Swain.
NEUTRALITY
Warm Spring, Ga., April 25?Presi
dent Roosevelt proclaimed today a
state of war existed between Ger?
i many and Norway and the neutrality
'
of the United States in the conflict.
Another proclamation barred sub
maines of the belligerents from Am-1
erican ports and territorial waters. |
In an executive order, Mr. Roose
velt prescribed regulations governing
enforcement of United States neu
trality in the bettlipg between Ger
many and Norway,
One result of the issuance of the
proclamations and order was to apply
the cash and carry plan to Norway,
who now will be able to pbtain war
supplies in this country only by.pay
ing cash and transporting them in
non-American vessels, j
No mention was made of Denmark
by White House officials and there!
were no indications whether similar,
proclamations would be issued in the ,
case of that nation.
Urges Support Of
Pre-School Cliffs
The pre-school clinics for the,
Greenville city schools will be held
next week as follows: Third Street

9 o'clock; West Greenville school, on
Monday morning, April 29, at 10:30;
Training school, Tuesday morning,1
April 30, at 9 o'clock. j
The school offiicals of the city
earnestly request the parents of all i
children who will begdh school nextj
year to take these beginners to the-j
clinics designated 4n order, that the-j
health department may examine them
for school entrance.
In addition to the. examinations be
ing given by the health department,
this clinic is considered worth a great
deal to the school program in that
it gives the school authorities an ac
curate estimate of the number j>?
pupils to be entered in the various
buildings in the coming year.

MAD DOG - THIS MAY HAPPEN HERE!
Loeal police have carried on an intensive campaign of "Warning to Dog Owners" here for the past
several weeks in m earnest effort to prevent a mad dog rampage this spring and summer.
Dog owners have been advised of the grave danger to children and adolte as well, as the result of
letting their dogs run out and have been cited to town ordinance in this regard.
Chief Lucas stated today that a rigid enforcement of the law is necessary to prevent a scene
to that above from occurring on the streets of Farmville, and requests that citizens cooperate with the
department in confining dogs as a precautionary measure.
