PRS1DENT ROOSEVELT SPEAKS TO NATION On Monday the President de livered a special message to Con gress. It concerned in great part his conclusions for financing the war and fixing prices on products and limiting profits and wages. On Tuesday night he spoke over the radio to the nation for 34 minutes, starting at 10 o'clock In his sadio address he covered briefly the grounds set out in his special message of the day before. We quote: Yesterday I submitted to the Congress of the United States a seven point program of general principles which together could be called the national economic policy fos attaining the great ob jective of keeping the cost of living down. I repeat them now in sub stance: 1. We must, through heavier taxes, keep personal and corpor ate profits at a low reasonable rate. 2. We must fix codings on prices and rents. 3. We must stabilize wages. 4. We must stabilize farm prices. 5. We must put more billions into war bends. 6. We must ration all essential commodities which are scarce. 7 Wr n muni rV? n n niiiiii. . Ikxiiall i. **c luuob uiavuuiaKC uiauui ment buying, and encourage pay ing off debt? and mortgages. I do not think it is necessary to repeat what I said yesterday to the Congress in discussing these general principles. In his address Tuesday night he reviewed the war on all fronts. He told of the war, American ships, planes, tanks and men helping the Allies on all fronts in Europe and the Far East. He told of a number of thrill ing acts of bravery and daring on the part ef American service men which should inspire every one to do his utmost in winning the war and saving America for Americans and the American way of life. To win the war means that Americans practice self-denial and economize in their way of living. It means too, that every one must do his bit for ultimate victory. 150 YEARS Raleigh is celebrating its ses quicentenial this week. The Celebration began Sunday. On Sunday night Dr. George W. Truett of Dallas, Texas, a native North Carolinian and a world wide famous Baptist preacher, delivered an address. For four days the program has consisted of civic and military events. Several persons of nationwide reputation have been in attend ance. The beginning of Raleigh was in the open country on a farm. The first capitol building was burned about 110 years ago. The new capitol building, as it is now was built from granite ? quarried in Wake County and was finished in 1832. No change has been made in its outside ap pearance since it was built, and Raleigh has grown to its present proportions since a farmer named Lane sold the site to the state. Raleighites and North Caro linians are reasonably proud of their Capital City, and let us fur ther say that it was named for Sir Walter Raleigh who estab lished the first English-speaking Colony in the new world on Roanoke Island within the boundaries of the Old North State. WAR NOTES For the past week British planes bombed daily large muni tion plants in Germany, occupied France and other points on the Continent with great distinc tion. With the steady advance of the Rod Army and the con stant bombing. Hitler is mani festing a degree of uneasiness. He seems to have abandoned his threat of a spring drive on Russia. While Britain has been hitting Germany hard, Germany has done some hard striking back. By direction of Hitler he has had himself made supreme dic tator by the puppet law-making body of the German empire. At the instance of Hitler, Pierre Laval has been made nominal ruler of France, which means Hitler will have his way if he can prevent a French up rising. There are indications erf much unrest at the way things are going. There is unrest in Germany as well as in the coun tries which Hitler has over run. The European countries are hungry and dissatisfied. They are living on extremely short ra tions. In Greece people are per ishing by the thousands for lack of food. In the Far East the American flag still waves over Corregidor. With what General Wainwright has he continues to strike hard at the enemy. From the allied base in Australia General Mc Arthur has launched a number of effctive blows on the Jape. THE FALL ELECTIONS The Republican pow-wow in Chicago seems to have included a challenge that "now is the time for all good men (and women) to come to the eid of their party". Wendell Willkie as Republican leader furnished a resolution about the war, and it was ap proved by the National Commit itoee of the party. Republicans who have to face the voters this Fall are trying to avoid being called "isolationists.'' Thoi situation puts a good many of them in a hole; but they suc ceed, at least, in laying out a workable program at the Chicago gathering. Many Republican leaders are struggling with confusing issues and troubled consciences. Presi dent Roosevelt and Mr. Willkie are pretty close together in this war-opinions, which leaves Re publican candidates facing a hard, uphill fight. FOREST FIRES For the past two weeks or more destructive fires have been burning in Pisgah forest and other parts of the western part of the State. Thousands of acres have been burned over and mil lions of dollars worth of valuable timber have been destroyed. The biggest fires have been gotten under control, but late news comes that forest fires are burning in Lenoir, Wautauga, and Wilkes Counties. Thousands of persons have fought the fires to get them under control. The start of the fires may have brcn accidental, but when more than twenty fires started at one time it was believed they were of malicious origin. Some suspects have already boen arrested, and if they ure proven guilty, they should be punished to'the limit of the law. Not only valuable timber but a number of farm houses were burned. Recently, in Alamance County Court, Judge H. J. Rhodes set a good example by sending a per son convicted in his Court of starting fires in south Alamance to three years on the roads. Many people are wondering why the President laid so much stress on rationing and pries I ceilings and said so little about jhigh wages and short hours. i Those who are now receiving such high wages better lay aside something for "the rainy day," after the war is over, which may happen in less than a year, will find things greatly different from what they are now. On Monday a plebiscite was held in Canada authorizing the use of Canadian conscripts any where in the world war. Hereto fore only volunteers could be sent to the front. It looks tike Canada is a mite slow in coming to the aid of the mother country. Late Monday a tornado struck Pryor, a town of 6,000 popula tion, 40 miles north of Musko gee, Okla.; and ripped through the Main strait. According to late reports 68 were killed and about 300 injured. The propety damage is estimated at $2,000, 000. The President asserted in his talk Tuesday night that men and war materials would be sent to the Far East and to China. Already U. S. troops and supplies are reaching Australia. If Ameri ca has air-craft of sufficient range, some of the needed sup plies and men might be sent quickly by air. It does not speak well for the loyalty and law observance of the ; Reidsville aalesman, a Mr. Pow ell, who left a restaurant table ' suddenly Friday night in Yan ceyville when the black-ou<t sounded. He jumped in his car and drove off at high speed with out lights. He had not gone far when he collided with the car of the Air Warden, W. A. Peter son and H. W. Hooper. Mr. Peterson suffered a fractived leg and other injuries and was taken to a hospital while Mr. Hooper was less severely hurt and was taken to his home. It is not reportd how badly Mr. Pow ell was hurt, but was arrested and placed under bond. He may have to serve a prison term and will have plenty of time to re pent of his recklessness and fail ure to cooperate with the mili tary authorities. DONT WASTE TIME AND LABOR One point being emphasized from time to time by the De 'partment of Agriculture is that home gardeners should not waste , seed, materials, or labor. Per haps the worst waste among gardeners in the past has re sulted from neglect and aban donment of gardens planted in a flush of enthusiasm but without adequate means or will to carry each crop through to harvest. This is the time for gardeners to show good-neighbor policy. Whatever is needed today is needed with desperate urgency. There is* too little time for any of it to be wasted. Many gardeners, according to experts of the Fer ry-Morse seed company, waste seed by sowing too thickly and too deeply. The smaller the seed the shallower they should be ; sown. Every crop planted should (be properly sown at the right time, tended to harvest, then harvested at the proper stage of development, and utilized with out waste. Unless the product is actually consumed by those who need it, there is no point in spending seeds, fertilizer, and energy in growing it Too many gardeners, in at tempts to get larger growth and yield, delay harvest beyond the stage of best quality. No vege table should be allowed to be come tough, coarse, overgrown, and unpalatable before being harvested. Quantity is important but so is quality. Large size in a product is, of itself, of little value. Most people cook vegetables too long; this destroys much of the vitamin content Too much water is also used to cook vege tables. This, too, destroys vita min content National health as well as personal well-being demands * ? that we learn more about what vegetables we need and make special efforts to use those vege tables effectively. PRESS THE BUTTON By G. H. KnSeld Human Impossibility The things higher up are meant for people lower down. We are given mountains and hills which serve as stairs for man to reach what's atop of them.There are spiritual heights as well. as physical. To reach the summit of either, one must climb. Strength is needed to go from the base to the summit of any height. It cannot be gainsaid, that in our modern day too many things are placed within our reach, and on our level as to require too little effort to possess them. In short, too many people are satis fied with mediocre attainments, with a, b, c, achievements. It is humanly impossible to hide a city set on a hill. The life built on the Rock of Ages, like the city set on a hill, is ele vated, imposing, conspicuous, in the sense that it is different, and cannot be hid. Those in the valley are attracted by it; they are invited to it. Thus the Heav enly City calls. Quotas of new tires released for passenger automobiles under OP A rationing in the first three months of this year show a re duction of almost 95 per cent from the total in the same months last year.
