The heathen Chinee isn't no darn peculiar, after all, in wanting to know whar he's at. - - Congress adjourned yesterday, and the country is today engaged in a great and solemn Thanksgiving. Both sides in Washington are dis satisfied with the new tax bill, which is about the best thing said of it so far. ' The armament conference is get ting down to brass tacks; In other words doing away with the heavy metal. The sort of Thanksgiving day ap petite for which a man should be truly thankful does not insist upon turkey. -ir .. North Carolina has been described as a valley of humility between two mountains of deceit. Still, the theory can be carried too far. But the easiest bit of prognosticat ing we know is to predict that there will be a grand smash if the inter national conference at -Washington steps into China. One of the main blessings ta be recounted by a person In the para graphic trade is that the multitude will stand for innumerable wheezes on the same subject. In a piece on this page yesterday the new hotel at High Point was re ferred to as a structure of nine stor ies. It has been previously mention ed as one of ten, which it is; no less. If you doubt whether North Caro lina believes in education, post your self at some point of vantage for '. viewing the masses of Tar Heels I swarming toward their stato's highest I Institution of learning today. This nation will waste enough food today, in its Thanksgiving feasting, to feed great throngs of the children f men in other nations who are suf fering hunger, and while some of its own go lacking; which is one way of looking at it. As long as tho marines in tho mail i cars have orders to shoot first and j inquire afterwards, the fraternity of ' hoboes, who are merely hoboes and ! nothing more, will do well to stick i to side-door pullmans as their means 1 of transportation, It would have been a smooth play if Virginia had made it; but it isn't the sort of play that. Carolina is praC' i tlccd in, nor the fcort tlfat she cares to learn. Better drop the Virginia schedule altogether than indulge in tricks of thut sort. A paragraph of a senate epeech of last August, in which it was said thut Mr. Volstead thinks more of "get ting" a bootlegger than he does of . preserving ,.the palladium of human liberty, has been expunged from the record. Why, is not stated. w. - - -'- il Although they counted among their foremost blessings a year -ago that the days of Democratic tenancy of the White House were numbered, this ; will be the first Thanksgiving dny in years enjoyed in the full spirit and enthusiasm by strictly orthodox Re- I publicans. On 'January IB, D. v., the new freight rates will go into effect, and the Greensboro wholesale district will stand a chance, for the first time In history, to come into its own. It has done pretty well, thank you, in spite of handicaps. Now, with a fair chance, it ought to do, and will do, i wonders, NOT THE SORT OF THING TO BE EXPECTED OF VIRGINIA. As to the eligibility of Johnson, the Carolina halfback, as a college foot bull player, we have no opinion; but we think that a great university might well afford to strain a point to keep its name for good sportsmanship ab solutely clean. If any question had been raised as to Johnson's eligibility, we think that Carolina would have done well to refuse to allow him to play' at the beginning of the season. But however that may be, the con duct of the athletic authorities of the University of Virginia in challenging the eligibility of a player only 10 days before the Thanksgiving game is not the sort of thing we should have ex pected from that institution. . The Carolina offensive had - been built largoly around Johnson.. ! Virginia knew it, yet she waited until the process had gone too far to be re versed before lodging her protest. To have eliminated the man at this late date would have been to cdncedo the game to Virginia in advance, Vir ginia knew thut, too. Hence it was inevitable that the effect of her pro test was to produce the impression, not that she is devoted to clean ath letics, but that she wished to make victory certain without playing for it. This, no doubt, was an utterly false impression, but its existence made for ill feeling at the game, and inter collegiate athletics begin to do more harm than good the instant they be gin to generate ill feeling. There fore it is a fair question whether athletic relations between the Univer sities of North Carolina and Virginia ought to be continued. The game isn't worth this sort of squabbling squabbling that disconcerted and in convenienced thousands of people all over the state, who had made arrange ments to attend the holiday game, and then didn't know whether to go to Chapel Hill or not. Carolina could easily schedule a contest that would draw equally as well with State col-, lege, for instance and that could be advertised without fear that some ob jection would be raised at the last minute to the disruption of all plans. MR. BAILEY IN 1919 AND IN 1921. In Mr. Dickson's report of the speech of Mr. Bailey before the gen eral assembly committee in 1919 February 10, to be exactit is re corded that Commissioner Maxwell referred to Mr. Bailey as 'the cham pion long distance scarer." In that same year, It is admitted by all par ties, Mr. Bailey made an address in which he did not view with alarm, but pointed with pride. He told the in ternational prohibition commission "our state had prospered, and laid before them the facts as to the pros perity of our farmers at that time." He then attributed tho roseate pros pect to prohibition; he now thinks his optimistic outgiving on that occasion was due to cotton at 40 cents and to bacco at 50 cents. Tho truth is per haps that the internal revenue collec tor emerged for the nonce from his ustomary mantle of profound gloom mainly in consideration of the rheto rical necessities of a prohibition ora tion. For, in the same account of Mr. Dickson, by which Mr. Bailey elects o stand or fall, in the same year that either prohibition, a he held then, or 50-cent tobacco, as he believes now, nabled him to limn a pleasing picture of rural and .general prosperity in North Carolina, it is written that Mr. Bailey said: "This country is closer to panic than it has been since 1907." The times were so parlous that Mr. Bailey feared for tho Democ racy. The camel's back was likely to crack under, the income-tax straw. "There is greater restlessness than ever before," he told the commit tee. "The truth is," Mr. Bailey is posi tive now, that in that extempore ad dress which won the title of cham pion long distance scarer, he did not "on that occasion speak on the sub ject of revaluation, and Mr. Dickson's report will bIiow" that he did not Thut was not his theme; but he, ac cording to the report, criticised the (tax) commission for asking legisla tion that property should be assessed at full value and asserted it was not a legislative question, but one for the commission to determine. The aver age appraisal of land for taxation purposes was about $8.30 an acre, "and you can get all the revenue you want undor full value assessments." Mr. Bailey, we aro quite sure, argued with force and at length for valuation, full valuation, in accord ance with the constitution. "Revalu ation" has come to have a special mcunlng in the state since that date. It consists in part of the provision of a special legal machinery of investi gation to cope with the difficulties, in practice, that had arisen in the as sessment of real and personal prop erty for taxation. Mr. Bailey was, or suid he was, heartily in favor of the end ; he simply declared that the special means contemplated was un necessary. The general assembly did not agree with him. , '...: With the single recorded declension when he addressed the International prohibition commission in 1910, case, as. we have said, of some exi gency, Mr. Bailey was a scarer in 1919, he has continued and abided In that faith meanwhile, ; and he is scarer now, He alarmed then be cause incomes were to be taxed, and offered as a remedy that farms, heif ers, hams, 'goats and hounds be taxed as the constitution requires. He alarms now because of some nefari ous who would tax the landowner, and he no longer emphasizes the un taxed condition of the bucolic heifer. This newspaper cheerfully admits having offered Mr. Bailey some little assistance in his alarming. It has, among other things, given much space to Mr. Bailey's census discov eries as to the tenant farmer and the cropper, believing that there is a con tent of profoundly important truth in Mr. Bailey's contentions. We have not as yet been greatly impressed by his proposed remedies; frankly, it ap pears to us that he is as weak in syn theses as he is strong in analysis, that he shines as a destructive critic and fails as a constructive. In aiding and abetting a crowd of petty demagogues who have always resisted the effort of the state to remove a reproach,' the lack of common honesty in the tax system, we are sure that Mr. Bailey has done, the state some dis service; we trust that the service he renders in directing attention to the fundamental evils in the state's agri culture may counterbalance. For if these evils aro ever presented strong ly enough to the conscience of the state, somebody will find and apply a remedy. i LITTLE AMERICANISM. The Sampson Democrat observes: The Greensboro Newt feara that the nation! cannot, or will not, trust Amer ica to back the Hughes' proposition to cut navies to the bone, alnoe the sen ate failed to back Mr. Wilson In his league of nations program. But If Mr. Wilson had had what he asked for, a Democratic senate, hla program would have e-one throuirh. Harding and Hughes have a Republican senate, and, besides, there Is a law already empow ering the President to make an agree ment an to curtailment or armaments without the consent of the senate., Hence, there should be no uneaalneaa as to the ability of Harding and Hughes to carry out their program if Great Rrltaln and Japan will consent. Those two nations have It squarely up to them, and tt is almost certain mat the voice of the Japanese and British common folk wilt bo insistent upon their governments yielding to the prop osition of America. This is a momen tous hour In the history of the world. Fortunately, it appears that the naval program can be carried out without the advice ' and consent of the senate, merely by a "gentlemen's agreement" between the Unltd States, Great Britain and Japan. Therefore it is likely to go into effect immedi ately. But our Clinton contemporary is unduly optimistic, it seems to us, when it assumes that the senate would back Mr. Hughes in a bold and ag gressive foreign policy simply because it belongs to Mr. Hughes' party. Men like Tom Watson, Reed, LaFolletto and Borah really belong to no party ; they would ditch the program of a Re publican secretary of state as readily as they ditched Mr. Wilson's. Little Americanism is not in any party plat form. It is none the less the thing that is preventing the seizure by this country of the greatest opportunity for service to mankind that ever was presented to any nation. NOT HE, SURELY. From a brief philosophical essay on matters profound, which comes as we judge from a student of one of the state's institutions of higher educa tion, we quote: "... the mascu- lization of women is 'tho. thing that threatens our boasted civillazation and it makes one feel as John Milton undoubetedly felt when he said Great god 1 had rather be a pagan with a creed outworn that I might be less forlorn and hear old triton blow his wreathed horn." It is entirely possible, even prob able, that the poet of Puritan theo logy may have felt more or less that way, on occasion, and given similar provocation ; but not, surely, we pro test, to the point of rather being a pagan. . In a revision of tentative plans for a passenger station to be built after Greensboro people vote bonds to pay for building it, consideration is given to the necessity of providing parking space for automobiles. This neces sity has been frequently discussed by this newspaper, and it remains of the opinion that any passenger station without an abundance , of parking space, and the right arrangement of it, will be a lamentable failure and will be recognized as such from the day it i opened. Davidson county folks may not think that they could find in a cook book good advice on trying the presi dent of a busted bank; but the old English recipe for rabbit pio begins, First, catch your rabbit.' PUBLIC PULSE STATEMENT FOIt 1B. STANLEY. Editor of The Pally News: No doubt many readers of the News were much aurprisea at some oi me statements in an article of November 9. concerning Mr. T F. Stanley's busi ness. Ho dues not know wno wrote the article and does not care to know, but It was evidently done to over shadow the moral standing of a good citizen of Oreenaboro of many years residence In tho olty by misrepresen tation. Nobody could b more surprised at tho statement made in the article re ferred to than he has been. Some facts mentioned were true but others were not. We do not caro to go into details of this matter for Greensboro people have no time to be interested in them, but will simply say that what appeared In the pages of the Newt la the flrat and all he has ever known or heard of the. 125 fine. And no policemen hav come at any time to his house except by hla call. Mr. Stanley does not keep an ordi nary rooming house but he has a Christian, houaa where a few rooms are rented to supposedly upright and genteel people and none other art now occupying the house. No room baa ever been rented to anv ana lor mora than one month at one time. Emerson said that "noth- thlng can harm you except what you do or say yourself." And this being undoubtedly true he feels that he stands above misrepresentation by other people. J. M. STANLEY. Greensboro. , AN INillIRV FOR (LAKH FAMILY HISTORY. Editor of the Dally News: There appear on the Census Book of North Carolina for 1790 the names of two men Lodwlch Clapp and Lod wlck Clnpp, Jr, These two, father and sou, It seems were either th original emigrants or the sons, who came from the erstwhile principality of Hesse- Cassel, now Ilasse-Nassau, Germany, and as the family tradition goca set tled first In the state of Pennsylvania about 1 74 n. One genealogist of the Clapp family of Massachusetts says the German Clapps were of the same line as theirs, using the same coat-of-arms of which I can furnish a drawing and description to those Interested. The Massachusetts Clapps claim descent from Offgod Clapp, a Danish nobleman, who lived at the court of King Canute, (1017-1036) of England. - My Interest Is centered In the pro geny of the Lodwlgs Clapp, of North Carolina, as one of them was my hon ored great-grandfather and now sleeps the sleep of the Just In our old home church horylng ground near Farming- ton, Graves county, (western) Ken tucky. Lodwlg (supposedly the younger) married Elizabeth Tillman, whose mother was a Loy. Elizabeth had two brothers, Alfred and Henry Loy, and knew nothing of their descendants. Lodwlg and Elizabeth Clapp married, moved from North Carolina about J'i3 to near Huntingdon, or Huntsvllle, Ala., and there were born to them Wil liam, Joel, Benjamin, Mary, Elizabeth, Maria and Sarah. Sarah married first a Parkhlll and later Cabel Jones, who became my grandfather. During the lift of Mr. parkhlll my grandmother, her husband, father and mother moved to west Kentucky in what la known as "Jackson's Fur chase." We know nothing of the de scendants of any of her brothers and probably some lived and died In North Alabama or western North Carolina. We know nothing of tho Lodwlg Clapp, my great-great-grandfather, who remained in Bonn Carolina, but the Census of 1790 says , he had a family, and it Is of the descendants of this family I wish to learn. Surely a family of the fine physical and men tal qualities common to the Clapps left, a family cither by male or female de scent, and If any who read this letter can throw any light on this darkened history direct or lndlreot I would in deed be glad to hear from them. Any of the namo Clapp who reads this please give me all your direct family genealogy. This is not to settle any estate or legal controversy but Is only an effort to Join again the branches of a once great family great not as glory Is generally measured but great In numbers, in manhood ana woman hood, great in the qualities that were necessary to make pioneers in a new and unsettled country. CLARENCE B. ALBRITTON, 115 John Marshall Place, Washington, D. C. MB. BAILEY EMHUACES AN OP PORTUNITY. Editor of The Dally News: I cannot hope to be able to reply from day to day to whatever you and your Italelgh correspondent may say concerning me, as I have other de mands upon my time and energies. But I am inclined to respond to your Sun day editorial, In which you raise two questions, as follows: 1. How could I reconcile my state ments as to the present condition of our farmers with my statements made In a speech to the International prohi bition commission In 1919, In which 1 set out that since prohibition went into effect our state had prospered, and laid before them tho facta as to the prosperity of our farmers at that time? - You must have a short memory. I was speaking In the year 11119. Cot ton was selling for 32 to 40 cents, and we had a crop of nearly 900,000 bales. Tobacco was selling at 50 oents, and we had a crop of 380,000,000 pounds. Every word I said then was true. We were prosperous then. There Is no Inconsistency whatever here. I accept ed the facta In 1919, and I now accept the facts In 1921. You should do the same. You call me a pessimist be- cuuse I do. You may De an optimist; but that is not the adjectlva- wth which to describe an editor who bases 1981 views on 1919 facta. Go off by yourself and think It over and find the adjective! 2. How could I reconcile my op position to revaluation with my speech In B'ebruary, 1919, before the com mittee of the general assembly In op position to the tax amendment par ticularly the Income tax amendment? This speech was extempore. I have no record of It excepting the news pnper reports nt the time th morn ing after. I am willing to test the mat ter of what I sold then by those news paper reports, particularly the report In the Greensboro NcWa. Ara you? 1 ask you to refor to the report In your columns as made by your regular Leg islative correspondent at the time, Mr. G. G. Dickson, dated about February 21, 1919. ' I challenge you to print that re port: and you or I will stand or fall on that report. But I do not expect you to stand by your own correspondent's report. The truth Is, I did not on that oc casion speak on the subject of reval uation, and Mr. Dickson's report will show that I did not. The revaluation bill wax not before the legislature or the committee at that time. It was not Introduced until March 1, and It was not passed until the last hours of the session of the general assembly. Out side of a chosen few no on knew of Its passage. There were no public hearings, and no one spoke on it. Nine tenths of the momhors did not know when it was Introduced or when it was oasaed. I oertalnly did not. I was speaking against the tax amendment to the constitution. That amendment as Introduced and at the time 1 snoke gave the legislature un limited power to tax Incomes. In re sponse to my speech the committee amended the bill so as to provide a limit of ix per cent. Later on this tax amendment was ao amended, in response to criticisms by me, as to limit taxes on property to 15 cents oa tho hundred. These were the fruits of the opposition as led by me; and In view of the now current tendency to take and spend publio money. I re sard these limitations as extremely valuable. 1 did not support the amend ment as amended; but I suspect that thoo who led th fight for it will be far ahead of me In efforts to get It out of the constitution and you will lead In this cause. Already you regret, you who stand for unlimited taxation and unlimited publio expenditures, re gret the limitations of this amend ment. In that speech I did not In any way endorse the revaluation act. It was not before the cpmmittee. I had not seen or heard of it. In that speecn i am say, however, that much farming property was undervalued at that time, and I now say that It was. I was then and am now tor honest, fair and reason able appraisals of all property for tax atlon. I see no inconsistency here. How this view can b twlated Into an en dorsement of revaluation only you can ,eF and you did not' see It at the time. It was an after-thought and was Invoked to discredit me In my efforts against revaluation. Mr. Editor, here Is where yon and I differ: You say that fair and reason- HIS FIRST THANKSGIVING AWAY til, fTlNK QOQDHBSt, MAY8E NOW ! It WU BE SOMETHING lF7 " ' JT"Sa .

The legislature of 1921 has endorsed my view. I do not know any man that has endorsed yours. Revaluation was wrecked becauae It was wrong in method, In time and In results. You are slow to give it up; but you Just as well do so. It Is a dead coon, and no amount of howling will revive it. It strikes me as quite a singular and even an absurd and vain tning, Mr. Editor that you should assume that those who outer wnn you in mis matter are fools or knaves, and that you alone stand for honesty in tax ation. 1 have, however, no quarrel with you on this score. You are at liberty to think of yourself and oth ers as you choose; and I have lived long enough to know that It Is true that one's Judgments will return upon him. Nor have I any quarrel with you on the point of whatever you may choose to say about myself. I do wish, however, that you and Mr. Boat would divest yourselves of anlmua to the ex tent of making an eiion to Keep in mind the difference between your prej udices and opinions ana me actual facta. This Is difficult, I know, but it can be measurably accomplished. If you will not do this, I must ask your readers always lo osar . in mint ..m: difference. a a I said at the outset, I cannot pos sibly respond to your criticisms from day to day; but your Sunday's editor ial stvea me a coveiea opporiuimr clear up the two main sources of your and Mr. Boat S animadversions, i ao noi expect either of you tc quit. In truth I am not sure that I could wish that you would quit. But I shall write no more for a time; and whenever you come again along these lines I hope your readers will remember this let ter.

Governor Morri son, addressing the teacners auenuing the annual meeting of the State Teach ers" assembly, opening here tonight, spoke for 45 minutes. He took many sly digs at obstructionists, calamity howlers, natural progressives but dan gerous reactionaries through their ha tred of him ashls fellow soldiers In the "grand army of enlightenment," the only complete Identification being J. W. Bailey, who draws pictures of poverty and distressed farmers which Governor Morrison declared would make a man feel bad even when he knew better. 1 The governor did not call Bailey's name, but spoke of ji very brilliant man who saw agriculture In wretched condition. "If we are aa bad oft as that the others are worse off." he said, and he deolarad the effect of this sort of speaking and writing has been to create a pauper psychology which once expressed Itself In no schools and no remedial Institutions. He challenged anybody to gainsay his statement that the 1921 general as sembly was the most progressive t, i ever sat in an American legislative seet eion. His several references to 8tate Superintendent Brooks brought heart iest applause and he declared his Re publican co-workers had labored so well with him as to make him forget the dif ference between Democrats and Repub licans. He closed on his foes, those who shouted mightily for his program, but wouldn't stay three days with him, though he denied having any program save that found In the great heart of the state. He rapped hard on those who declared the state could not sell ItH bonds, and laughed down the Idea of paying back money 40 years before it fell due. , COURT RULING IN FAVOR OF SCIENTIST DIRECTORS Have Power To liemove Board Of Trustee! Of the Christian Science PnhH.hlng Society. Boston, Nov. 23. The supreme aourt today handed down its decision In the litigation concerning the governing boards of the Christian Science church and Its publications. It held that the dlreotors of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Boston (the mother church) have the power to remove a member of the board of trustees of the Christian Science Publishing so ciety. It dismissed the bill brought by the trustees to prevent the directors from Interfering with the affairs of the society. " - - - The direction In other respects con firmed the report of Judge Frederic Dodge who sat as master in tho con troversy, except that it made no ruling on the question whether John V. Dltte more, who was removed as a director by his fellow members, or Mrs. Annie M Knott, who was elected by them to succeed him, was a director legally. The latter question was declared to be at Ibsuc In a separate suit. The exceptions to the master's report taken by Mrs, Emilia B, Hulen, of Brooklyn, N. Y having been waived, were not considered by the court. The appeals of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin A. Krauthoff, of Washington, D. C, were dismissed. In its ruling as to the power of the directors to remove trustees the court held that th removal by them of La mont Rowlands as a trustee was ef fectual.
