"Where there is no vision, the
people perish.”
In thi^khour pf ttilli and tr|l^
ulation, when pot^t ^or«^

and the storms of inletlite fcdn-
flicting opinions and prcSjisdices
are beating: around us. let us
pray for visiort sle.
First, Ifet us firaf for ^sion
to see with clarity what . lifes
about us; to face the reality Qf
things, uncolor^ by any shade
of personal bias, .whether it be
the rose color of undue opti
mism, the deep irreen of pessi
mism, the deep green of l)esBi-
ger, the vivid' yellow of pride
or the gray of indifference.
Pray for vision t? pee cleArly
things as they realfy are here
and now. _.
Second, let us pray for vision
to see with discerrinieni; to look
beneath the surface^., to see
what is motivating the actions
and the lipeech of the highly
articulate groups recently band
ed together in this country; to
weigh every statement, consid
ering well its source and its
possible effect;, to judge care
fully and with matured wisdom;
not to be taken in by any wave
of carefully- stimulated mob
opinion, nor by any of the wild
rumors so carefully set afloat by
alien elements, and so well cal
culated to upset the morale and
minds of our sincere, peace-
^ loving, God-fearing’people. Pray
for vision to ^ee through mists
tnat veil the-truth.-
Third, let us pr/iy for vision
to see with Understandinfi^ to
view with dispassionate’ but
clear eyes not only' what is go
ing on, but also the people
whom it affects; to see all of
our people with eyes of com
passion and sympathy, compre
hending their problems and
judging them as individauls,
without regard for race, creed
or color, never indulging in-

Alcohol’s plan of assault on man
kind may easily have been the priiijr
er in which Hitler learned blitz
krieg methods! ^
It isn’t far-fetched to compare Hit
ler’s attacks on civilization with liq
uor’s all-out fight asainst the Indi
vidual or the nation, in the opinion
of such social welfare groups as the
W.C.T.U.
The Nazis’ propaganda divides the
ranks of opponents, the Fifth Col
umn weakens them and wins them
over, then the shock troops move
in to smash re
sistance — and
seize another ova
tion.
Wine is liquor’s
propaganda
army. With mil
lions to spend and
eal^ociety as its
mouthpiece it se
duces with talk of
moderation and
enthralls with
promises ot
‘‘sparkling” fun.
Disclaiming any
connections with liquor’s other ar
mies, it uses its high alcoholic con
tent to enslave those it contacts.
Wine is high on the list of causes
for the high enrollment of alcoholics
in mental hospitals.
Beer is the true Fifth Column.
It’s a hard core of alcohol camou
flaged with suds—and fools a lot of
people. "Why, I’m just a soft
drink,” it tells the boys and girls.
"Drink beer and you can have fun
without paying a price.” Those wfco
live near taverns, the records of ju
venile, traffic, and criminal courts
all show that 3.2

so slick that even

ruled it officially

They win the ad

North Carolina
Cotton Worth
$5,000,000 More
Raleigh, Sept. 11. — North
Carolina farmers should receive
at least $5,000,000 more for
their 1941 cotton than they did
for their crop a year ago des
pite an expected 30 per cent de
crease in production, M. G.
Mann, general manager of the
North Carolina Cotton Growers
CJooperative Association, said
here today.
Mr. Mann based his predic
tion on the government’s esti
mated production of 516,000
bales for North Carolina in 1941
as compared with 732,000 bales
a year ago. This year's crop,
Mr. Mann said,- should bring
North Carolina farmers at least
15 per cent more than the $35,-
834,000 they received for their
lint cotton last year.
“The government,” Mr. Mann
said, “has through its loan put
a floor on cotton produced in
North Carolina of lo.24c or 15.-
29c a pound, basis middling 15-
16. This flooring is $26.95 a
bale higher than it was last
year. ”
Mr. Mann pointed out that
the purpose of the government
loan is to guarantee that farm
ers receive at least 85 percent
of parity for their cotton

The labor representatives in!
pressing their 900 Million Dollar
waire demands aro apparently
letking, Mr. Gurley said, to re
flect the prejsent artificial and
temporary situation due to in
tense defense efforts in a per-
mantly increased wage scale.
Gurley stated that after the Me
diation Board announced its in
ability to get the parties to come
to an agreement, the railroads
had formally expressed their
willingness to arbitrate the con
troversy.
Demands of the five operat
ing brotherhoods are for an in
crease of 30 per cent in wages,
with minimum increase of $1.80
per day. Moreover, they are
demanding additional and uni^
necessary employes on Diesel en
gines, and for a revised method
of compensation. The demands
for these unnecessary men con
stitute a further attempt to add
to the costs of the railroads
and would place as many as
nine enginemen on certain types
of locomotives, whereas two
constitute the engine crew now.
The proposed reclassification for
pay purposes is in reality an
other wage movement and it
is still hanging over the rail
roads.
Demands of the fpurteen jion-
operating brotherhoods are for
an increase of 30 cents per
hour in pay, with a minimum
of 70 cents per hour, and for
vacations with pay.
