PACKARD Assistant Editor u* second-class matter January Ift, 1934, at It«r> post office at Rocky M*unt, North Carolina, under the Act of March 3, 1870 Adv»rti«ing rates reasonable, and furnished to pro#- peetlye adverfUers on request Pabceription Rates: One Year, $1.00; 6 Months, 60s *»blUation Office: Second Floor Daifiela Building, B»eky Monnt, Edgecombe County, North CaroliaA THE CROP CONTROL ISSUE Blkin Tribune The North Carolina Grange, meeting in Winston-Salem recently had the opportunity of hearing a speaker favorable to compulsory orop control and one who is not favorable, aad then decided to vote neither way on the issue. Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace presented the administration viewpoint, and Senator Bailey gave his reasons for oppos ing compulsory control. And in the course of his remarks, the North Carolina Sena tor is quoted as having said that he will not ▼ote for compulsory control, "although there is more sentiment for it here than perhaps any other State in the nation." That statement alone is significant be cause it shows that Senator Bailey sub scribes to the theory that when people elect their representatives to Congress they com mission him to rely solely upon his own good judgment and let it go at that. And really there is a school of thought that runs along that line, but there is another that holds that a representative should represent, which manifestly the Senator is not doing when he says that although he knows the senti ment of his people is for compulsory crop control he will vote against it. Senator Bailey has presented his argu ment on the issue time and again, and by his own acknowledgement he has not been able to convince his constituents. Being the servant of those who sent him to Washing ton, to our way of thinking, he should re spect their wishes in matters that do not challenge his integrity. Be that as it may, both Secretary Wal lace and Senator Bailey present plausible argument for their respective sides on this issue. Senator Bailey presents an alterna tive program of "inducements to induce far mers to produce fewer soil depleting crops," and offers the "export bounty" plan as the most rational and cheapest solution to the farm problem in the South. Maybe he is right, considering cotton farming as a whole, but we wager that under the export bounty plan the small cotton farmer would be left holding the bag. FOR ECONOMY AND YET FOR SPOILS Williamston Enterprise Much talk has been heard about ecenomy up Washington way during the past few weeks, and there is no mistake about the people wanting economy. There is need, no doubt, for economy. Our own senator, Mr. Josiah Bailey, says one billion dollars must be lopped off expenditures during the period ending about a dozen months from now. Those who have been demanding economy apparently want the other fellow to bear the A SAFE DEPOSIT BOX IN OUR VAULT WILL PROTECT YOUR VALUABLES Cost is Less Than 1 cent per Day Th e Planters National Bank And Trust Company MEMBERS: Federal Reserve System, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation burden that any reduction may effect. They 1 have not said much about the billion dollars the spoils system costs this nation each year. The expenditures made by the government at the direction of congressman-senator to procure and hold votes are seldom mention- J ed in their pleas for economy. The elimina tion of overlapping bureaus, and they are many in our government, can not be effect-! Ed just because of the spoils-infected group that hovers close under the Capitol Dome. 1 The loud clamor for economy centers. around those appropriations advanced for J relieving human suffering, the wants of mankind. These appropriations must be stopped even if such action reduces ourj people to hunger and actual want. Certainly there is a golden opportunity to even effect economy in the relief ranks, but this economy will be ignored. The poli tically hand-picked worker in the relief busi ness will continue to hold his job while the unfortunate one—the one with no political pull but yet is in great need—is kicked out. When the politician who should for econ omy begins to fire his hirelings and shows that he is for real economy, then there'll be economy. It may cost the senator-repre sentative his job in the long run, but such action even though it leads to defeat, merits praise. "THIRD TERM" Emil Ludwig, eminent author, aptly ex presses a point of view in his initial install ment in "Liberty" of his biography "Life of Franklin D. Roosevelt," in which there is wide divergence of opinion. "Emil Ludwig, predicts that the Presi dent may be elected to a third term if the "great impending European War" breaks out before the 1940 elections. Ludwig gives his views in a foreword to the biography. He decries the charge that the President is a "dictator" and declares that the Roosevelt administration repre sents "perhaps the last attempt to carry out the social revolution without resorting to force." "Roosevelt's significance for us Europeans is greater than that of any preceding Pres ident except Lincoln and Wilson," he writes. "This is conditioned more by the world sit uation than by him. I believe that he holds in his hand the key to peace. "But should the great impending Euro pean war break out during Roosevelt's ad ministration, then his authority may be great enough, in the hour of danger, to elect him a third time. Otherwise at the end of three years he will resign his office, though by no means his activity . . . "The sons of those Americans who are op posing Roosevelt today will perhaps some day erect a monument to him as the last of those who fought to preserve their system. One thing certain is that the sons of the poor, for whom he took up the fight, will not forget him. For at bottom what is at issue here is nothing other than rich and poor." - WHAT PRICE HASTE Rotarian Magazine As the year's best safety slogan, we would propose the following, gleamed from a mes sage of Marshall De Motte to California Rotary Clubs: "As ye would that others should drive to ward you, Drive ye even so toward them." And for runner-up, this from the "Daily Transcript" of Holyyoke, Massachusetts: "The car to watch is the car behind the car in front of you."
