that investigating Senators had
“needled” treasury officials to
try to get them to slap an extra
$6,000,000 tax on him.
3. A denial by Hughes that he
had offered Meyers, then re
tired from the Army, $100,000 to
try to remove New York City’s
ban on “The Outlaw,” a contro
versial motion picture made by
Hughes which was banned by
several cities for its “sexiness.”
Shortly afterwards, in New
York, Welfare Commissioner
Benjamin Fielding told reporters
that Meyers had told him last
year of being offered $100,000 by
Hughes if it could be arranged
to show the picture there in its
original version.
At the same time Mayor
William O’Dwyer, substanti
ating Fielding, said Meyers
tried in October, 1946, to inter
cede for the picture saying it
would “mean a lot of money”
to Meyers.
4. A Hughes assertion that “I
did not make one cent out of
the war and I can prove it.”
On the contrary, he said, he can
show that he lost money on
war contracts.

“This is my birthday and I’m

jubilantly. “The doctor won. I’m

Sharpe went to the mailbox
in front of the drugstore and
mailed the letter. Then he hurri

BAPTISTS THROW
(Continued From Page One)
church should be clearly de
fined. We do not believe that
the church can take sides in the
struggle. We cannot give aid to
the organizing of labor unions;
we cannot give aid to manage
ment in any struggle against
unions: nor can we be identified
with the cooperative move
ments. To do so would be to
negate the greater missoin of
the church.
“The Kingdom of God cannot
be coerced into the narrow con
fines of labor unions, industrial
management or coopera
tives. Rather must all these
patterns be brought under the
judgment of the Kingdom of
God.
Losing Freedom
We ask, lurthermore, that
our people examine carefully
the frightening manner in
which we are losing our individ
ual freedom under group pres
sure. The industrialist faces it
in his association of manufac
turers; The laborers faces it in
his union; and the farmer in
his cooperative.
“Such organized groups are a
part of our mechanized society,
but their dominance over the
individual conscience must be
resisted.
“We must, by teaching and
preaching, defeat any influence
that would divide us into
groups belligerently oppos
ing each other. We are chal
lenged to promote unity and un
derstanding in the face of a
threat to divide us into warring
factions, and to make the good
office of the church through its
Christian leadership always
available for mediation.”
In the section on the teacher
problem, the report noted that
athough disavowing any pur
pose “to engage ourselves in
partisan issues of political and
economic, nature we deplore
the discrimination in salary
scales against those engaged in
the character-building profes
sions.”

hearts of the people from the
rural sections and from the
small communities, the places
that most of all characterize
North Carolina.
He paid tribute to the rec
ognition by the veterans of
North Carolina that this is and
will continue to be an agricul
tural state as shown by the in
creasing number of veterans in
agricultural and training
classes.
In conclusion Gover
nor Broughton stressed the
place of the family and Chris
tian faith and unwavering belief
in American ideals in the fight
to preserve to the world democ
racy and individual freedom.
The speaker was introduced
by Judge Henry L. Stevens of
Warsaw, and former national
commander of the American
Legion.

he told the audience at St.
James church. He listed the trir
as the scientific, the philosoplv
cal, and the spiritual av
proaches. In the first two he
led to examine, explore, ar
achieve tested facts, and gath
his experiments together t
search for their material mear
ing, he explained.
Spiritual Approach
“In the spiritual approach, he
faces the universe with a sense
of mystery, wonder, and rever
ence, and longs for response.”
“Worship is the medium where
by he enters in a relation into
the sense of a Presence.”
He defined worship as the
final synthesis which gives life
its guidance and its goal. Per
sonality best fulfills itself in
worship, he declared.
“True worship, which is a
means to an end and not an
end in itself, can answer the
demands of futility,” Bishop
Block said. “It reveals the tech
nique of the good life, cultivates
the discipline of the soul, and
invites one into the presence of
Him whom we revere as Master
and Lord.”
The Bishop will resume his
talks on the Beautitudes at St.
Pauls parish house this morning
anl will deliver another mission
sermon at St. James church at
the service tonight at 8 p. m.

NAVY MAY RESUME
(Continued From Page One)
cause in that the chief weapon
tested at Davis is now ready for
further development at another
location.
Once past the engineering
stage, the weapon may be given
further tests on the east coast
some time in the next year or
two, officials disclosed. If this is
true, Camp Davis might then be
re-occupied.
At present, however, the Navy
will move out, bag and baggage.
The equipment now at Camp
Davis is expected to be shipped
to a testing range on the west
coast.
The Bureau of Ordnance, which
directs the Navy’s research, ob
tained funds this year to build a
facility at Point Mugu, Calif., for
joint operation with the Bureau
of Aeronautics, but has not an
nounced the precise purpose of it.
About 20 per cent of the 1,500
acre base in California will be
used for ordnance purposes.
Camp Davis, built six years
ago as an Army anti-aircraft ar
tillery training center, was trans
ferred to the Navy after the yrar.
Dutch Marines were trained there
before the ordnance project be
gan in early 1946.
Missiles developed by the ap
plied physics laboratory at Sil
ver Springs, Md., on the north
ern outskirts of Washington, were
fired up the coast of Topsail
Island to see how they would
perform under various condi
tions.
Topsail, one of North Caro
lina’s best fishing areas, was
barred to anglers during the
Navy occupation, but presumably
will soon be reopened. Owners
of vacation places on the island
may reoccupy them soon, also.
Negotiations are under way
for the state to take over the
Navy-built highway there and
the draw-bridge connecting the
island with the mainland.
The Navy’s plans are to be
announced formally within a few
days, Lt. Comdr. Ray Stanwick,
of the Silver Springs unit, is to
discuss the matter tomorrow in
a Capitol Hill parley with the
secretaries of the two North
Carolina congressmen whose dis
tricts are concerned with Camp
Davis: Tom McGee, secretary to
Representative Graham Barden,
in whose Third district the camp
is located, and Marion Shuffler
of Wilmington, secretary of Rep
resentative J. Bayard Clark of
the Seventh district. The secre
taries are expected to mention
the future of the federally-own
ed housing and of the power,
supplied by an REA cooperative.
NEWSPRINT PRICE
(Continued From Page One)
ers (selling newsprint at $90 per
ton) today is plainly worse than
in 1939 when newsprint sold for
$50 a ton.”
An effort was made during in
luiry to pin Fowler down as to
vhether further increases in
:ewsprint prices were likely but
\e declined to be drawn cut. An
Vmerican manufacturer, G. H.
Mead of Dayton, Ohio, however,
said he felt a price increase
inevitable.
It was reported following the
October meeting that the general
sense of most of the conferees
was that the price of newsprint
was due for a rise and initially
$6 per ton was advanced as a
probable figure.
Extreme Increase
An extreme increase of $10
per ton had been mentioned but
the best estimates of those close
to the industry here is that news
print price probably will advance
to $98 a ton about the first of the
year. Such an increase would
mean that newsprint will be sell
ing at the highest contract price
since 1920 when the average was
$112.
The Newsprint Association of
Canada estimates that the in
dustry will have produced a total
of 4,349,700 tons by the end of
1947 with approximately 75 per
cent of this going to United
States publishers.
