WPTF Monday Night
This is election year, which is un
derstood by the public to mean,
when the major officers of the coun
try are to be filled. Under our form
of government this is the year to
elect the President of the United
States, about one-third of the Unit
ed States Senators, and the entire
Congress of the United States, as a'.l
representatives must receive, fresh
} every two years, their commission
from the voters to elect a new Gov
ernor and the council of State and
all other elective state officials, and
I am one of North Carolina's citi
zens in common with many others
that believe all the major officers
of the State should be elected and
receive their commission from the
people whom they serve and under
take to govern. It might be well to
read a few lines from the North Car
olina Constitution.
"Art 1 Sec. 29, N. C. Constitution
states: A frequent recurrence to
fundamental principles is absolutely
necessary to preserve the blessings
of liberty."
"Art 1 Sec. 28, N. C. Constitution
states: For redress of grievances,
tand for amending and strengthen
ing, the laws, elections should be of
* Jton held."
"Art 1 Sec. 10, N. C. Constitution
Mtetes: All elections ought to be
free."
The Constitution, the fundamental
law of this state, states, that in
order to preserve the blessings of
liberty we must recur frequently
to fundamental principles. Funda
mental means, pertaining to the ba
sis of things; the first principles
upon which our government was
founded, and that a frequent recur
rence to these principles is abso
lutely necessary to preserve the
blessings of liberty: it further
states that our elections must be
held often to redress grievances
and to imend and strengthen the
laws and that all elections ought
to be free. These are the words of
the Constitution and the same neces
sity that caused our Fathers to write
"•Hese sections exist as much today
as there was the day these sections
were written.
The United States Congress now
in session has just passed a law mak
ing it a serious crime for employers,
office holders or any citizen to use
force in any manner in connection
with Federal Elections, whether it
be money or threat of non-employ
ment.
A new election gives the publu
servant an opportunity to return to
his constituency, the people, whom
he serves and submit his record and
ask for its approval or disappro
val and if approved he can go for
ward with more confidence as his
record has been approved by his
sovereign, the people.
It also gives an opportunity to
every citizen who desires to repre
sent the people in any office *-0
submit his candidacy and cause to
the people. The above Constitution
states, that, this is a necessary
thing, to be done if the laws
to be amended and strengthened. "
I think it is generally knwn in
the State that I have given notice
that I would be a candidate for the
nomination of United States Sena
tor in the coming June Democratic
Primary to succeed Senator J. W.
Bailey whose six year term expires
this year. This is the first public ad
dress that I have made in the in
terest of ray candidacy and in do
ing so, I believe it the duty of a
candidate offering himself for the
important office of United States
Senator, to let the people know lus
views on all important and vital
questions as far as he may be able,
and that the voters of the state have
a right to be informed of the can
didate's present views and former
record, and especially is this true
of the important office of United
States Senator which is of six years
durntion.
I shall undertake o nthis occasion
to speak some of my views in as full
u manner as time will permit and I
shall further undertake in the course
of my remarks, as I feel it my duty,
to discuss Senator Bailey's Senatorial
record; his votes and speeches. I
shall undertake to conduct my cam
paign on a high plain, leaving per
sonalities out. except insofar, as it
may be necessary to give some little
personal history of my own and to
explain Senator Bailey's Senatorial
Record, which I conceive to be a fun
damental, and spoken of in the
North Carolina Constitution, which
*\e public has the right to be in
, 'firmed of.
1 will state for the benefit of
those who probably are not famil
iar with my personal history, that
I had the good fortune to be born in
the state of North Carolina on my
father's farm in Edgecombe county
where I lived until I was grown. At
tended the public schools of the co
unty, studied under Professor F. 3.
Wilkinson, Principal of the Tarboro
Male Academy, later attended the
University where I studied law; en
gaged in the practice of the law in
the fall of 1907 in the town of
Rocky Mount, which has been my
home since. In 1911, I was elected
Judge of the Municipal Court of the
city of Rocky Mount which posi
tion, held for eight years. Resigned
the Municipal Judgeship on account
of having been elected to represent
Edgecombe County as representative
in the General Assembly in 1919,
where, served five terms, ten years,
without opposition from either Dem
ocrats or Republicans in the primar
ies or general elections. Served as
Speaker of the House of North Car
olina sessiou 1927; served as Lieu
tenant-Governor 1929-1933. For the
past twenty years served as a mem
ber of fhe Rocky Mount City School
Board, seven years of this time, be
ing chairman. I was candidate for
Governor in 1932,' contesting the
nomination with the present incum
bent which campaign and its issues
you are still familiar with and I
want to take occasion herein now
to give expressions of my -grateful
thanks for the generous support
which the citizenship of this stats
gave me in that contest. At that
time you will recall that this state
and the country at large was in
the depths of the great depression
and in opening my campaign for
governor, speaking over the radio
WPTF, October 31, 1932, I stated
that there could be no permanent
recovery for any individual, or set
of individuals, or businesses until
agriculture was improved as the far-,
mer was the originator of all wealth,
and that he was the first to fall and
that he must be the first to be re
stored if the country was to be re
habiliated.
That statement is just as true to
day as it wa« on the day of that
address.
"I also stated in that speech that
we can not prosper without capital
and without labor. Labor and capital
must go band in hand and that one
of the first things that labor should
be most concerned with was the
prosperity of his employer. That la
bor could not hope to be prosper
ous unless the employer prosepred,
but when the employer was pros
perous, labor was justly entitled to
its reasonable part of the profit.
Labor is also entitled to a decent
place to work and with the increased
efficiency of both man and machine
should expect to receive its just part
of the benefits in having shorter
hours which would permit more lei
sure hours for improvement and en
joyment."
The above is as true today as it
was in 1932 and are my views today.
The great inventions and labor sav
ing machines, devices should enure
to both labor and capital as our gov
ernment refused to give unlimited
patent rights, because inventions in
the end should benefit society as a
whole, and not just those of great
wealth, who undertook to use the
machine to the detriment of la
bor. This certainly has been the
view of the President. He has real
ized that in order to restore indus
try, the consuming ability of the
public must first be restored.
Depression
When Honorable Franklin D.
Roosevelt was inaugurated the Presi
dent of this country on March 4,
1933, the country as a whole was in
an indescribably destitute condition,
save and except a few who had some
private income or patrimany or
were receiving some special benefit
from the public. Agriculture had
reached its lowest depth, industry
wa« paralyzed; the banks of tKe
couhtry closed and without confi
dence of the people; credit destroy
ed; farm and home owners being
ejected from their homes and thos-3
not already ejectqjl; homes were be
ing advertised.
At the opening of the high school
in my city in September 1933, as i
member of the board I addressed
the school. I can truthfully say that
while my town is recognized as be
ing one the best communities in
eastern Carolina that three-fourths
of the children of that high school
were under-nourished and under
fed and if not hungry, were exist
ing on an unbalanced diet. The co
untry as a whole was hungry, with
out shoes and clothes and as was
said by a distinguished Senator that
only one other time in life compar
able to this.
Job's aflictions. In his case the
Sabeans fell upon Farmer Job
and burned up his servants and
oxen and asses and took away his
sheep, the Chaldeans stole his cam
els and servants and his house fell
and killed his sons and daughters,
and the Devil covered his body iu
sores.
Conditions were so bad that Pres
ident Hoover described it as an econ
omic pestilence and a calamity un
pnralled in the history of our coun
try. This is the condition that ex
isted when this Democratic Admin
istration assumed leadership in
Washington March 11)33.
There are many in this country
who undertook, and argue now thai:
the above condition was a natural
condition, the direct results of the
war and still contend that this de
pression was natural. They do not
have the frankness and boldness to
speak out and place the responsi
bility of this depression on the ones
who produced it, the great special
vested interest of this country or
either they do not understand.
Some contend that it was imaginary
and a state of the mind.
Senator Bailey calls the depres
sion the hysteria of 19J2 and 19-
33, in an article appearing in the
February 2nd, 1935, Saturday Even
ing Post in which he discussed the
situation. The dictionary defines hys
teria as an imaginary, nervous effec
tion of women. I must submit that
we who lived through that period
and suffered the effects, know that
it was real and not imaginary. It

"Boiling"lnNash
Gay And Cockrell Announce For
County Commissioners Others
Likely Candidates
Formal announcement came today
that R. R. Gay, chairman of the
Nash board of commissioners plans
to seek membership on the board
again, following the announcement
only Thursday that C. C. Cockrell,
Nashville resident and former busi
ness man, will also run. Mr. Cock
rell was first formally to announce
his intentions.
Mr. Gay, who ig a local man, indi
cated it was his understanding the
present membersfiip "off "the " board
will probably run-again*for county
commissioners. None except Mr. Gay
has formally "announced yet. On the
board are G. R. Strickland, G. B.
Finch, J. D. Nelms, W. B. Bunting
and Mr. Gay.
The Nash chairman said he heard
talk to the effect, J. H. Vaughan, of
Oak Level towrfship, and F. V. Avent
of near Nashville are also consider
ing entering the race for Nash com
missioners. Neither has announced
openly however, so far as was known
here.
Politics in Naah County is also
alive in other fields, J. W. Grissom,
local attorney, has announced he will
oppose Nash Recorders Court Judge
L. L. Davenport, and Prosecuting At
torney (Solicitor) Hubert May, out
for reelection, has ,t*o rivals, F. P.
Spruill, Jr., and T. W. Fitts, both lo
cal lawyers.
Bheriff C. L Johnston, definitely
out of the race for sheriff, has two
men seeking to fill his post, C. V.
Faulkner and J. M. Warren, both

Up To The Governor
r
North Carolina being the chief tobacco State in the
L'nion, should be the first to give serious attention to
working out a plan to see that the fanner receives a living
price for his tobacco this fall.
We should under no circumstances follow the leadership of
those who counseled delay and inactivity.
The city of Rocky Mount is purely an agricultural town
and its prosperity is absolutely dependent upon what prices
the farmer receives for his crops. Rocky Mount has more
to lose than the farmer and it is our duty to put our shoul
ders to the wheel and join with the farmer in helping to
work out a program that will save the farmer and in saving
the farmer, we save ourselves.
It is the duty of the Governor to call the legislature in
extra session to meet at any time that it is necessary to
provide State legislation in order for us to receive our part
of the benefits provided by Congress.
If it can be done next January and save 1937's crop, it
should be done this year and save 1936's crop. We can not
hope to have a working plan without some Governmental
control. The farmer wants control.
THAT STADIUM AGAIN
We have been Informed that the stadium is to- be built by
Rocky Mount from"its taxing resources.
That the government is not to pay any part of the cost
of this stadium. The public understood that the government
was to contribute a large portion of the cost of the stadium
and if the stadium was not built, just that much money
would be taken from Rocky Mount regardless of how worthy
a project the stadium may be. We do feel that it is the
duty of the city in promoting its bond issues, to see that the
public is given the proper light when expenditures of this
kind will be voted in the city.
We have not been able to get information on why the
gymnasium is not being started like the stadium. It is true
that children are small and unable to speak for themselves,
but it is the duty of the citizens to see that their interests
are protected.

Hanes Abandons
Forty-Hour Week
Oflicial Of Southern Association Says
Move Is Unfortunate For
Industry
Winston-Salein, March 7.—An
nouncement of abandonment of the
40-hour week in favor of a 50-hour
period by the Hanes Hosiery Mills
here brought veiled criticism from
Taylor If. Durham of Charlotte, sec
retary of the Southern Hosiery
Manufacturers' Association.
Mr. Durham classed the move as
"unfortunate" and declared if it
spreads all the hosiery mills in the
South will be forced into a situation
which will result in increased j>ro
duction and reduced prices, a con
dition which the association desir
es to avert.
The Hanes company, largest hos
iery manufacturers in tho South,
is the big concern to abandon
code hours and wages, including tho
40-hour week, Mr. Durham believes.
He said there have been minor
adjustments in several mills, but
the majority have adhered voluntar
ily to code hours. A recent sur
vey showed 95 per cent, of Southern
mills adhering to the code. The
Hanes company is not a member
of the Southern Hosiery Manufac
turers' Association.
Henry I Adams, district manager
of the American Federation of Ho
siery Workers, with headquarters at
High Point, announced today that a
"strong organization" had been ef
fected here seeking to prevent the
abandonment of code hours and wag
es.
He termed the local condition
"deplorable," and said: "If contin
ued it will demoralise the entire hos
iery industry."

Virginia Senate:
Passes Bill
Old-age pensions for needy Vir
ginians over 63 were voted Monday
by the House of Delegates, at Rich
mond, which also passed bills im
posing a chain store tax, establish
ing a division of mines separate
from the state labor department,
and authorizing a fee for state au
tomobile inspections.
; The Senate approved and sent to
Governor Peery the House bill creat
ing a commission to regulate tobac
co production in co-operation with
other states, and cleared its calen
dar of "9eriate "bills.
Both chambers made haste to act
ion their own bills because of the
rule requiring; them to begin Tues
day to consider only bills or amend
ments originating in the opposite
house.
1 The House ordered a night ses
sion in order to beat the dead
line after its voting machine broke
down under the pressure of rapid
fire voting in which 78 measures wero
passed and two killed.
One of the bills to die by default
was the companion bill to the mea
sure legalizing parimutual betting
on horse racing in Virginia. The bill
creating the commission which was
to have administered the betting
law was defeated several days ago
-by the House but kept on the calen
dar by its 25 patrons.
The Senate approved without a
dissenting vote a substitute for the

DISCUSSING TAXES
PRESIDENT'S SUGGESTION
NEW CORPORATION LEVY
TAKES CARE OF LOSS
ROOSEVELTS THREE YEARS
CANDIDATES WORKING
By H« B> Sims, S»vcTal Washington
Correspondent
Idling along last week and wait
ing for the President's message OK
taxes, Congress found plenty to
work on after the President recom
mended sweeping changes. Discus
sion continues, with much differenoa
of opinion, but with Congress never
theless impressed by the fact that
when appropriations are voted, ta*-»
es must be levied.
Reviewing the fiscal policy of hi*
Administration, President Roosevelt
maintained its fundamental sound
ness, assuring the members that re
ceipts of the Government are ri«-
ing definitely and sharply and that
Federal expenditures can be reduced
so that the increase in government
income will be able to pass "the de
clining cost of relief." To maintain
this policy, the President insisted
that it was necessary to make good
the loss of revenue caused by the
Supreme Court decision and the in
crease in expenses caused by the ad
justed compensation payment act.
Breaking down the figures, ME.
Roosevelt pointed out that the Su
premo Court decision adversely a£*
fected the budget by one billion,
seventeen million dollars, as follows:
(1) a deficit due to a failure to re
ceive processing taxes to equal ex
penses they were expected to pay,
$1281,000,000; (2) expenditures ap
proved in appropriation act, 1936,
$296(000,000; (3) estimated expendi
tures under soil conservation and
domestic allottment act, $440,000,000.
This sum of more than a billion
dollars, which must be raised to keep
the budget in line with earlier es
tunates, includes a permanent annu
al cost of about $.500,000,000 for farm
relief provided and also the esti
mated net loss to the government
through processing taxes which have
not been collected. However, in ad
dition to the money required for the
farmers, the Congress has been ask
ed to provide a sum to meet the ad
ditional cost of paying the adjust
ed compensation certificates of tho
veterans this year instead of in 19-
45, when they would otherwise hav>
become due. To do this, in nine
years, will require an annual charge
of $120,000,000. Therefore, the Pres
ident 'wants permanent taxation to
provide $620,000,000 but he makes
plain that the money for the farm
ers is a substitute for the old pro
cessing taxes and only that requir
ed for the bonus payment is, new
taxatiou.
While leaving to the "discretion
of Congress" the method of raising
the revenue. President Roosevelt of
fered a suggestion, which is the ba
sis for the widespread discussion
now going on. To begin with, the
President would repeal taxes which
have been counted on to produce ap
proximately a Blflfon "dollars
year and in their place levy a "pro
per tax on corporate incomes (in
cluding dividends from other corpor
ation") which is not disturbed ;ia
earned. He would repeat: (1) pres
ent corporate income taxes which
are expected to yield $286,000,000;
(2) the capital stock tax, estimated
to yield ..163,000,000; (3) the corpor
ation excess profits tax, estimated
to yield ♦•"i.000,000; and, in addition,
(4) eliminate the present exemption
of dividends from the normal on
individual incomes. The rate v>f the
tax, lie said, should be so graduated
and fixed as to yield the same reve
nue as would be yielded "if corpor
ate profits were distributed and tax
ed in the hands of stockholders,"
Thus it will be seen that the new
tax on corporate income would be
expected to raise enough to offset
the billion to be lost through taxes
repealed and the $620,000,000 re
quired for farm aid and to amor
tize the bonus payments. There stiil
remains to bo discussed the Presi
dent's suggestion of methods to re
store to the Federal Treasury tho
amount lost through the court de
cision throwing out the processing
taxes. Again, with deference to the
"discretion of Congress." Mr. Koose
velt suggests the taxation of the
"windfall received by certain tax
payers who shifted to others the
burden of processing taxes which
were impounded and returned to
them or which, otherwise, liavo re
mained unpaid."
He points out that a tax on this
"unjust enrichment" would be only
