THE GLEANER OtiAHAM. N. C., JAM. 16, 1941 USUKD KVEBT THLH8IIAT J. D. KERNODLE, Editor $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE Entered at <nt PoMofflea at Orataam. N. li, ae 5?nad^:laee matter. The inauguration of President Roosevelt for his third term takes place in Washington Mon day next. It does not look well for labor, strikes being planned and going on while the country is bending every energy toward preparing defense against invasion of a foreign enemy. It is not a patri otic attitude. Under the control of that enemy labor would labor and the pay envelope would _ be materially reduced. | Not in the history of the world, in the same length of time, has so much property in value been destroyed, as in the past few months in Europe. It continues to go on day by day.(If and when the sponsors of the present distinction in Europe have finished up there, there is a dread, not ill-founded, that this hemisphere, the Americas will be the next objective. The fear that that will be the case, is causing billions to be spent for defense and equipment that otherwise would be unnecessary and when it is over will be of little real value or use. The bot tom of the seas is being strewn with a jumbled mass of sunken ships and towns and cities that were centuries in building are being reduced to a mass of ruins. It is tragedy in the surpurlative. Governor Broughton Governor J. M. Broughton in ducted into office last Thursday made 46 recommendations to the legislature in his inaugural ad dress, They have been boiled down to 20 major points, as follows: I 1. Continue a balanced bud get. 2. Keep the sales tax but add exemptions for "essential food for home consumption," and make no substantial changes or additions in taxes. 3. Provide retirement pro grams for all state employes, in cluding teachers. 4. Enact immediate laws pro hibiting the unrestricted selling of socalled fortified wines. 5. Adopt a resolution Im mediately applauding President Roosevelt's defense and aid-for Britain programs. 6. Provide a new congres sional district and reapportion legislative membership, both on the basis of the 1940 census. 7. Provide adequate appro priations for higher educational institutions, public schools, vo cotional education, adult educa tion, reasonable expansion of the public health program, state hospitals and institutions, and for reasonable Increases in teach ert salaries if it can be done with available revenues. 8. Provide reasonable secur tiy for teachers in their jobs; set a goal for a standard nine months school term and a 12th grade; consider advisability of submitting a constitutional a mendment to vest a board of ed ucation with all of the staters authority in school administra tion ; and consider raisjng the age for compulsory school at tendance from 14 to 16 years. 9. Provide state aid for pub lic libraries. , 10. Provide for strict a&er ence to "the principle of a state highway systemtake note that "much of our primary road sys tem must be revamped or re built provide a budget which would not necessitate highway fund diversion; and make ade quate provision for farm-to-mar ket and home-to-school roads. 11. Provide adequate appro priations to help the state be come a great livestock state; with provision for an adequate structure for displaying live stock included in the program. 12. Relieve the highway pa trol of tax collecting duties and enact new legislation outlining its work and removing it from the realm of politics. 13. Provide forest fire pro tection funds from the general fund; devote net proceeds of game and fish purposes; supple ment and extend geological fa cilities ; expand the jdSvision of commerce and industry; estab lish a state office in Washington on a stable basis; and provide in creased funds for ttie fight for lower freight rates. ? 14. Provide for training prisoners in useful trades. 15. Provide for the fullest 1 possible cooperation between the 'federal and state governments on all matters; especially if new laws are needed for home de fense purposes or to control fifth column or subversive activities. 16. Absolutely bar slot gam bling machines. 17. Provide an eastern North Carolina tubercular sanatorium. 18. Give special considera tion to the forthcoming report of a special commission studying wage and hour legislature. 19. Give much attention to law observance and law enforce ment. 20. Have as short legislative session as possible. The Legislature The legislature met in advance the day before the Governor ai*i State officers were inducted into office. Hie first thing was organi zation, as follows: The Senate: John Larkins, Jr., Jones County, President Pro Tem; S. Ray Byerly, Lee County, Principal Clerk; L. H. Fountain, Edgecombe County, Reading Clerk; and Herman Scott, Chat ham County, SeTgeant-at-Arms. For the House: Odus M. Mull, Cleveland County, Speaker; Shearon Harris, Stanly County, Principal Clerk; H. L. Joyner, Northampton County, Sergeant at-Arms; and Ralph Monger, Jr., Lee County, Reading Clerk. Lieut.-Gov. Harris presides over the Senate. Hie legislators started out on a spending spree by increasing the salaries of four State offi cers, Secretary of State, State Auditor, State Treasurer and Superintendent of Public In struction, by ten percent, rais ing the salaries from $6,000 to $6,600. The raise was made to "equalize the pay" of constitu tional officers. It would have sounded better to the folks back home to reduce the pay of the others?would have shown some spirit of econ omy. It is a hard proposition to satisfy a public officer when his pay comes from the public fund. Down in Charlotte, the State's largest city, the mayor's salary is held down to $1,600. There they are Cleveland Democrats who hold to the motto, that "public office is a pubic trust, not a private snap." Taxes are plenty high and hard enough to pay, without im posing any odd time burden. When it cornels to spending, the one-gall us fellow back home, pulling the bell-cord over a mule to grind out a meager subsis tence for his little family, should be kept in mind?he is a citizen, a small cog in the wheel, but a necessary one. Free Enterprise Medicine Here in the United States we live under what is graphically described as a free enterprise system. It permits any man to go as far as his abilities will take him. It places no barriers in the way of progress and ? achievement. It believes in the dignity of the individual?as op posed to systems which make the individual the slave of the state. All of us know what this free enterprise system has produced. It has given us the highest standard of living in the world. It has given the typical worker a higher paid job and a shorter work-week than is known any where else. It has given the ave rage man and woman more of the luxuries and necessities than their counterparts enjoy in any other nation. It has given them more security, in the form of homes, insurance, bank deposits and other forms of saving. All of this has been done un der that free enterprise system ?the individualistic system, so to speak. And that system has given us more than goods andj chattels. For example, in the field of medicine we can see a gain what private enterprise achieves. In 1936, there were 11.5 deaths per each 100,000 of pop ulation from diphtheria In Ger many. There were 8.6 in Eng land. There were but 1.5 in the United States. There is one qual ified physician for each 767 peo ple here?as against one for each 1,069 in England, and for each 1,307 in Germany and one for each 1,596 in France. In the totalitarian states, where gov ernment dominates medicine, and the bureaucrats pick the doctors, almost all diseases are increasing. Here all are decreas ing?and rapidly. So does American medicine, like American industry, serve. It is private medicine?it is "free enterprise medlcineL" No other system ever devised by man has done so much for the great masses of the people. i . ?
