The editor will n«n •« reipomlble for /lews expressed by correspondent*. GRAHAM, N. 0., Aug. 5, 1926. PARTY PRINCIPLES AND RECORDS CONTRASTED Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham in *. Radio Address, Urging the Vote as Safeguard to Self Government. "It isn't just accident that a Dem ocratic administration carries the government through from 1912 to 1920, the period of greatest stress we've ever known, without one single financial scandal, and that a Republican administration comes right in behind it and we have to begin filling the Federal prisons with the appointees to office who did .not see public office as a public trust but by whom every great natural resourse we had was looked upon as a chance for one or more of these gentlemen governmenteers to line their pockets," said Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham of the Woman's National Democratic Club, in a radio address Saturday night, October 2, at station W. R. C. of Radio .Corporation of America in Washington. Such a contrast is to be accounted for by the difference between the theories and standards of govern ment maintained by the two leading parties, she found. At the opening the speaker refer red to the failure of many to go to the polls and vote, the penalty for which, in the las t analysis, would be "absolute loss of the control Of our government." Other excerpts from the address follow: "I believe we should do our level best to get down to fundamentals and try all over again to open and keep open channels for the expres sion of that genius for self-govern ment to which the American people are rightly heir and not let that great racial characteristic of ours atrophy for lack of use ''And I believe that it behooves ns every one to examine into the situation, find out why it is worth someone's while to confuse our minds, study and understand the differences between the parties and then deliberately choose the theory of government which appeals to us as the best and safest for the country. In other words, quit let ting your party happen to you. Happen to it; take the initiative; have an opinion based on facta and act on it "Go back and look at what the Denocrats did when yon entrusted your government to them. - And re member these things do not just happen; that each party actually has a theory of government and a stand ard of administration by which to measure their conduct of govern mental affairs. And if a party hon estly believes in a privileged chosen class being established in this conn try to have control of our affairs, as did Alexander Hamilton who actu ally talked of tL. 'gentlemen's gov ernment' or as did President Hard ing who in his turn called for 'a government of the best minds,' it naturally proceeds on the assump tion the people are only there to be the burden bearers—the taxpayers; but if on the other hand yon believe with the Democrats that all power is inherent in the people, when that power is entrusted to you,| you are required by every moral fores within you and withont to admin ister that power as a trust "Every oil well that you owned for reserve fuel had to be nailed down at the four corners of its der ricks and a good Democratic Sena tor like Senator Walsh of Mnnt^n a had to mount guard there. Ami don't think that phase is all over either. Just yon watch Muscle in the short amnion of Oob jgress this winter. "I think you'd better give this some serious ln^l November 2nd and make up your ' mind not so much which person you want in office but what standard you want set in government administra tion and if you believe this gov ernment belongs to you and this country with its vast natural re sonrces is your heritage and that of your children's forever, you'd better get yourself to the polls early and vote to entrust your affairs to the Democratic party that operates on that theory of government and will protect you iu yonr rights —the Democratic party which is offering you a homely but useful program of action—tax reduction, tariff revision and honest administration." HIGHWAYS AND EDUCATION The influence which the use of the motor car has exerted upon education can not always be stated in statistical terms. Stud iee made by the Bureau of Edu cation of the United States show that in 1924 there were 19,G56 motor buses in use by rural schools and 470,000 children were transported daily to them by mo tor vehicles. The actual report of 2,310 out of 3,309 county superintendents in the United States show that in this year there were 1,424 new school consolidations. Improved roads make possible a daily at tendance at school, while the use of the bus has been a largo factor in the elimination of the little red schoolhouse, which, while a pict uresque element in our education system, is far below the standard set by the new consolidated schools, with their elaborate equipment for the physical and mental training of the child and better grade of teachers.—Repre sentative B. £.
