It seems a simple thing, af ter all. that settled the labor diffi culties that had kept more than 3,000 men idle at High Point for seven weeks and crippled operation of fur- mtnre factories. When Goctnor Bkkett got on the ground and invit ed the factory owners and the opera tives to come and reason toenr?, smd they consented to do that very dung, it was ail over but fixing ,the definite terms.. The factory owners hd discharged men for "xercismg their undoubted right to became members of unions, and toe uai.m men had undertaken to say that n en who exercised their right to refuse to become members of unions should not work. Both sides were wron and both were right, and the Governor did a good job when he got each side to abandon a bullheaded attitude of holding to the wrong part of its pro gram. Labor difficulties can't dis turb long when either side to a con troversy manifests a disposition to demand only what is fair and rfcht. In settling labor difficulties at High Faint Governor Bickett performed a creat service to the State.

Influ enza has already made its appearance in mild form and it is the part of wisdom to be prepared. It would be criminal folly to sit still and do nothing to prepare to combat the dis ease in case we have another epidem ic. Thorough preparation will inspire confidence and will help to make the epidemic less deadly. Last fall it came suddenly and with all the terror inspiring power of the unknown rnd mysterious and panic fear no doubt helped to make it more deadly.
