If Congress gets anywhere it
will have to change. The tariff, ?
prohibition enforcement, Judge
Parker's nomination, are still on
hand. And here comes the re
duction of armament pact 'o add
further to the [tains of disagree
ment.
It was hoped that the prohibi
tion question would not be drag
ged into the Senatorial campaign
in this State. Hut not so. Itj
seems that Senator Simmons' man
agers are going to try to make the
most of it. When it comes to the]
spokeu word and conduct of Sim-]
uious and Bailey they are both]
day.
Mrs. Ruth Ilanna McUormick,
C'ongresswoman of 111., Republi
can, who defeated Senator Deneen
for the nomination to succeed
himself, reports that she spent
$252,572 in her campaign. Noj
doubt, of course, about her elec
tion, but when she comes to take!
her seat her fellow Senators may:
objeet on account of the sire of i
the campaign fund and the uses
made of it.
Whether Judge Parker's an
pointuient as Associate Justice ot
the Supreme Court is confirmed
or not, the race issue has been in
jected and it will stick. J udge
Parker, when running for gover
nor in 1920, was trying to elevate
partisan politics in North Caro
lina and get the negro question
out of the way without doing
violence to the civil rights of any
one. And mattefs were going
along well enough. Now when he
conies up for confirmation by the
Senate, those same Senators, who
would have fired a tirade at
southern folks, felt so indebted to
the negro vote that they take up
bis complaints in an effort to de
feat Judge Parker and entrench
themselves. Are they not estop
ped henceforth in saying anything
further about the negro in politics
in the South.
Cheap Corn Pays
When Fed to Hogs
With an outlook increase of 8.6
percent in the acreage to corn this
year over the United States as com
pared with last year, corn will like
ly sell for a lower price this fall
than usual.
"But what of that?" asks W. W.
Shay, swine extension specialists at
State College. "It Is likely that corn
sold as grain will bring around 70
cents a bushel this fall. Last vear
the corn fed to hogs by 45 demon
strators in North Carolina was sold
for $1.50 a bushel. An increase In
the corn crop of this State means
that we shall have more of the
grain available as hog feed. If it
were not for the Industrial depress
ion hogs would be selling now for
$12 a hundred. As it Is, the price
has been between $10.50 and $10.85
and the person who breeds and
feeds his hogs properly can make
a good profit at this figure.
The outlook for the future is
better, says Mr. Shay. There is a
decrease of over 18 percent in the
frozen, dry salt and pickled pork
now in storage compared with
April 1, 1929. Then too the total
number of hogs on the farms of the
United States as of January 1, 1930
was between seven and eight per
cent less than on the same date of
1929.
Mr. Shay says he doub s If any
farmer In North Carolina can find
a better source of Income or one
that will return more piofit than
good corn and good hogs properly
handled. The man who hast these
and knows what to do with them,
and then has a milk cow, a flock of
hens, and a garden may enjoy one
Income In early fall, another next
spring, have plenty to eat few If any
v pressing debts to pay.
A number of wool pools are be
ing organized In western North
Carolina by the county agents of
the Extension Service. i
THE QUALITIES
OF LEADERSHIP
By JOHN a LONSDALE
President American Bankers
Association
Leadership and success. In a gen- |
eral way, are synonymous. They are
both founded upon clmple codes of
thought and ac
tion, upon the
realization that
ho who wina the
laurels must tie a
doer, not a wait
er, that applica
tion of energy,
not time or luck,
1b what counts
most. A rabbit's
foot Is a poor
substitute
for horse sense.
Both success John G. Lonsdale
and leadership, 1(
tliey be of the highest quality, are the
result of service to humanity. Service
has been aptly described as "the su
preme commitment of life." Analyze
the lives and times of all great leaders
of history and you will find that those
whose names are enshrined In the
hearts of their countrymen are those j
who sought to render a needed service !
to the populace.
Leadership, like success, need not,
however, be International or national
to aohleve great results. There is
room for each of us to be a leader In
his community, in his work, in bis
church, and in various organizations.
One of the indispensable qualities of
leadership is the ability to persist
steadfastly in the face of discourage
ments. If George Washington had uot
possessed the quality of persistence,
he and his soldiers would never have
survived the hunger and privations
which were theirs at Valley Forge.
We have too many young men cud
young women these days saying a Job
cannot be done. Too many spend
their time explaining why a thing
can't be done, instead of saying, with
tirm resolve, that it can be done, and
then going out and doing 1L Anything
that ought to be done is capable of
being done. And anything worth do
ing at all is worth doing well. The
fellow who handles a little job in a
big way is always on the road to
greater fields.
CONTEST WITH CORN IN EAST
CAROLINA
Four cash prizes amounting to
$250 are offered to corn growers in
31 eastern Carolina counties who!
grow the highest yields on Ave
acres of land. The prize money is
offered by the agricultural depart
ment of the Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad .and is open to farmers in
the counties served by this rail
road. Rules of the contest have
been prepared by the Agricultural
Extension service at State College.
E. C. Blair, extension agronomist
at State College, says there Vill be
entries from each of the 31 coun-;
ties and in some counties ten or
more growers have already enter
ed. Last year the first prize of
$100 was won by J. Lib Lee of Ben
son county, who made 107 bushels
of corn an acre on the five acres.
Second prize of $75 went to Roy
Lee Hayes, a 4-H club boy of
Wilson county; third prize of $50
went to Jesse Murray, another club
boy of Pender county, and fourth
prize of $25 went to George W.
Trask of New Hanover county.
Those who plan to enter the con
test must file entry by June 1, with
the county farm agent, or vocation-:
al teacher where there is no agent.
The rules of the contest have been,
slightly changed this year so as to
make the chances of winning more
favorable to the persons who
plants soybeans in his corn. Any
farmer or member of his family
many contest for the prizes.
