' .- . - - , , - - THE MORNING STAR. WILMINGTON. N. 0, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1920 KITCHIN RECEIVES OVATION OH RETURN North Carolinian Resumes Du ties In House Amid Applause Of Members. (Special to The Star.) Washington. June 1. Representative 'Claude Kitchin. of the Second congres sional district of North Carolina, made his first appearance on the floor of the house yesterday since his recent se rious illness which has kept him con fined at his home His appearance was the occasion for a veritable ovation, indulged in alike by both republicans and democrats and lasting for. several minutes. Not only did the members rise to their feet and applaud the entrance of the Tar Heel, but they crowded about him, shaking his hand and otherwise cordially greet ing him. , Mr. Kitchin looks strong and vig orous despite his experience and his friends feel that he gives promise of many more years of activity and use fulness. v; Plan for 30th Reunion. The reunion of the Thirtieth division, which has been announced for Septem ber 28 and 29 at Asheville, calls for elaborate tentage, sanitation and feed ing equipment at the hands of the war department. Representative Weaver, of the Asheville district, is active in his efforts to perfect all arrangements, and he expects action on the part of the war department in ample time to meet the requirements. "I am doing everything in my pow er." said Mr. Weaver today, "to hasten the matter to the end that all essen tial equipment may be secured and. on 'the ground in time to meet the re quirements. I feel that there can be no doubt about the war department meeting the situation fully with re spect to furnishing, all the essentials asked for. However, I shall not rest until the needs of the occasion are fur nished." The Thirtieth divisfon was made up largely of North and South Carolina and Tennessee troops who won for themselves, their families and their country the honor that abides with gallant deeds on fields of battle. It is-expected that, at least ten thousand of these who survived the bloody con flict! will meet at Asheville to, renew their friendship for each other and their allegiance to their country. ,.' AUTOMOBILE CASUALTIES RUN HIGH AT KINSTON More Than Fifty Recorded For Present Year; (Special to Tke Star.) Kinston, June 1. The number of Kinstonians killed and injured in au tomobile accidents since January 1 has passed the half -hundred mark. The authorities say there seems to be less speeding now than at any time in re cent years, the frequency of accidents In the last five months having had an "educational" effect on car drivers. In several of the accidents in recent months half a dozen or more persons were injured. Two ' of them occurred in other counties, with local persons . the only victims. Doctors' bills have totalled thousands of dollars. Many of those injured have been seriously hurt. - Truck Line Promised. Local shippers expect several truck lines to be established in this part of the state within a few months, as a result of general road Improvements. Main lines will probably operate be tween Goldsboro or Kinston and More head City and Washington, and will connect up these and many - smaller towns. All trunk routes will, pass through New Bern as a matter of ne cessity. Local capital is, known to be available for truck service. Bus lines will be established simultaneously wftlt the truck routes. It is believed, bat for shorter distances. The five towns tn the section are located at distances of twenty-six to forty miles apart. The first truck line was in contemplation several months ago, but Its inangn ration was "postponed ' be cause of construction work on the read. Eventually, .local- business- In terest hope, motor transportation will lie had between this section and Wil mington. ...... Marurl to Speak. Rev. Belvin W. Maynard, former lieutenant In the flying service and winner of the transcontinental air race, will come here next week -for an .address on "Motor Troubles of Socie ty" The famous birdmah will ' be comparatively near his home when he reaches Kinston, his relatives residing In the country forty or fifty miles south of here. Mr. Maynard, who will stick to the ministry, declares it "has no lure for red-blooded men, but its difficulties present . a challenge to them." Kinston Mayor ; Gets A Letter; From Angel Who Tells Him He Has Been Designated To Unfold Mys teries Of Heaven To The World. .... Directory of Wilmington Dealers Speclal. to The Star.) Kinston. June 1. Mayor Joe i Daw son, youthful chief burgess of this city, f owns no ouija board. Nor does he hold intercourse ; with spirits, ardent or ar-' duous, by other means. That is, he is j not in the habit of doing sucn tnmgs. But when an angel voluntarily writes the mayor a letter that is a diferent matter. '"'V.V "What the !" wa8 the mayor's first thought upon opening an epistle from such an ethereal Individual yesterday. He read it through, and, then read it again. He called his law partner, into conference. The partner ' read it and remarked. "Well the angel has signed it. Here's his signed statement." And ( it being possible for anything to, hap pen under the law, he suggested, that it be referred to a local -"specialist in transmagrirication, legerdemain arid phantasmagoria." . The specialist recommended that the communication not be , answered, it having been declared dangerous by a number of scriptural authorities to hold Intercourse with "familiar splr-; its," but if the angel sees this he will . know that the mayor got the letter al right. r ;.. . ;, , The "angel" gave a street address in Elgin, 111. "The hardest matter of all is for me to say (prove) that I am an angel from heaven, now in the flesh," he stated. "I have been In flesh above 13 years, and no door has been opened to me that I may speak before the peo ple the mysteries of heaven," he con-j tinued, complaining at the indifference of the mundane masses. Then he pro ceeded to explain certain connections between things In this world and the one above, and to justify the actidn of the Kinston' city council in establishing the Jim Crow drinking fountain, being one of the comparatively few to ap prove anything the council has done. He gave highly technical reasons for this nicety of segregation. Apparently the letter was prompted by a protest by a Chicago negro news paper against the council's little idea. Chicago negro newspapers are not especially friendly to some southern In. stitutions. They are -widely read here abouts, arid evidently this one had been written to by some local anti-Jim Crowist. The article said the Kinston whites "want to get all the water for themselves," t another indication that "segregation injuses" the white people of the south. But the angel said the course of the local authorities was strictly in accord ance with the divine gcheme of things, and that he had authentic information that segregation was intended from; the time ahem. Ham and Japheth put j on long pants and went their separate ways. W. D. MacMILLAN, JR. Phonea 345-2103 Packard : Buick Dodge Brothers ., .... - 105-107 North Second Street PLATT AUTOMOTIVE CO. .
