Congressman John If. Kerr
gave a most interesting discussion
of current legislation recently en
acted by Congress, which has been
of chief value In promoting im
proved conditions in the United
States under the present admin
istration. After briefly reviewing
the chief legislation of the New
Deal Congress, Congressman Kerr
gave a detailed discussion of the
tobacco hill which bears his name.
He also discussed the Bankhead
Cotton Bill and made certain re
commendations which he believed
would make this act more bene
ficial In its operation. Congress
man Kerr's address made a most
profound impression on his audi
ence. He left his hearers with a
stronger desire to cooperate with
the government in its great un
dertaking of leading the nation
back to normal conditions.
The following resolutions were ,
unanimously adopted before the (
adjournment of the meeting:
Whereas, the Farmer and Bus
iness Men's Club is primarily con- '
cerned in the general welfare of <
this community and cdunty.
And, whereas, the general wel
fare has been greatly benefitted
by the Increased prices of tobacco,
due to the wise provisions of the
Kerr-Tobacco Bill enacted by the 1
past session of Congress,
Therefore, be it resolved, that ?
the Farmer and Business Men's 1
Club go on record as heartily en- ,
dorsing the Tobacco Control Act
and to express the sincere appre
ciation of this organization to
Congressman John H. Kerr for his
untiring and patriotic services in
bringing this bill to a successful
conclusion.
Be it further resolved, that a
copy of these resolution be made
a part of the permanent record of
this organization and that a copy
be sent to the News-Observer, the
Raleigh Times and the Franklin
Times for publication.
RESOLUTION S
In the sudden and tragic death -
of Joseph C. S trot her on Nov. 25,
the Junior Order United American
Mechanics lost a faithful member.
A member who for the most part
was regular, in attendance upon
Its meetings and constant in his
support of the object* of that ele
vating and influential fraternity.
Death in any foorm is awe-in
aplring and, solemn it its relation
to the human family in whatever
manner it comes. In the case if
our friend and brother it was
tragic in its suddenness. Stricken
down in the prime of life with
many happy years in prospect, one
wonders at the mystery of it all.
Only Divine Providence can cast
a soothing light upon it-.
Joe Strother was a friend of all.
Enmity and hate rankled not in
his heart. Kindness and neighbor
liness governed his hfart actions
in all his dealings with his fellow
man. Ajoyoous disposition made
bright hisv pathway as he came
and went no matter how. trouble
some the times. . ?
The /unior Order, Franklinton
Council No. .120. wishes to pay
these woc4s of esteem and respect
to the memory of this, our depart
ed brother and to commiserate
his famiiy on 'their misfortune.
