Hoey Selects Olive As Manager
Lexington Man
Accepts Place
High In American Legion
Work; Former State
Dept. Commander
Hubert E. Olive of Lexington,
attorney and past department com
mander of the American Legion,
will be State manager of the cam
paign of Clyde R. Hoey of Shelby
for the Democratic nomination for
Governor.
“I have asked Mr. Olive to man
age my campaign and he has ec
cepted,” said Mr... Hoey. "I am
most happy to have him direct the
campaign, and conditions over the
State seem most encouraging.”
. For the last several days the ap
pointment of Mr. Olive as State
manager of the Hoey forces had
been predicted.
State campaign Headquarters win
be set up at the Sir Walter hotel
in Raleigh beginning March 16.
The Hoey manager is 40. years
old, a graduate of Mars Hill and
Wake Forest colleges, and is one of
the leading members of his profes
sion in tips section. He is a mem
ber of the Baptist church at Lex
ington, where he has been a Sun
day school teacher for the last 16
years, is past lieutenant governor of
the Kiwanis club in his district, and
is a member of the Junior order
and the Patriotic Sons of America.
During his recent administration
as commander of the American
Legion in North Carolina he made
an official visit to each post in the
state and was one of the most de- ,
termined fighters in behalf of pass- ,
age by Congress of the act provid- (
ing for payment of the adjusted
service certificates. Hoey support
ers expect his championship of their
cause will bring many Legion votes
into the Honey camp.

Salvation Army
Praised As Good
Neighbor
Fits Into Social Struc
ture With Personal
Help
Philadelphia—The relief work
carried on by the Salvation Army
is the exemplification in modern
cities of the neighborly helpfulness
of the small communities which for
so long was the backbone of Ameri
can life, declared Horace Liveridge,
general manager and vice-president
of the Philadelphia Electric Com
pany, at a Salvation Army cam
paign luncheon in the Bellevue
Stratford Hotel recently.
"We all want to be good neigh
bors,” he said, "but in cities as
large as Philadelphia it is almost
impossible to practice old-fashion
ed neighborliness—the kind that
sent friends in to help anyone who
was in need of assistance. With
some 5 00,000 families in the com
munity such personal relations can
not be developed.
The next best thing is to sup
port the Salvation Army in its per
sonalized service. In the larger
community this organization serves
is a larger individual neighbor.
What we cannot do ourselves, it
does for us in the most effective
way possible. It fits into the be
fuddled social structure of mod
:rn civilization much as did our
ndividual ancestors with their
jersonal help for needy neighbors.”
This neighborly relief is the an
:ithesis, Mr. Liverside declared,
>f the centralized systems of fed
eral and state aid. They, he insist
:d, are "the result of conditions
which must be on the wane—if the
results are not to be progressively
worse.”
Continuing to decry the attitude
which seeks to throw back all re
lief on some impersonalized govern
ment authority. Mr. Liverside as
serted that this shirking of indi
vidual neighborliness is a "disgrace
to civilized society and makes for
the degradation and demoralization
of the social order.”
Such experiments, he said, have
been tried often in the course of
history, but have always led to
disaster.
To avoid further unfortunate ex
periences in this direction, he rec
commended a return to personal
local, neighborly relief—which in
a great city, he repeated, can best
be performed "by proxy”—as by
the Salvation Army.
Engineer Holt
Dies Suddenly
A sudden summons came early
Monday morning to Engineer J,
Thurman Holt, 57, well-known on
the Danville division of the South
ern railway, as he prepared tc
mount his engine at Monroe, Va.
for the return trip to his home in
Spencer. A heart attack, super
induced by acute indigestion, i:
given as the cause of his death.
Funeral services were held frorr
the home in Spencer Tuesday ai
4 p. m., being conducted by Rev
M. W. Gordon, of the Baptist
church; and the Rev. W. B. Davis,
of the Methodist church, and the
body was laid to rest in Chestnut
Hill cemetery.
Engineer Holt, a native of Chat
ham county, son of the late Mr.
and Mrs. Albert Holt, had been in
the employ of the Southern rail
way 33 years, and was promoted tc
engineer in 1906. He was well
known and much liked by the of
ficials of the company and his fel
low employes. He was a member
of the B. of L. E., Woodmen of the
World; Junior Order, and the
Benefit Assciation of Railway Em
ployes; and a life long member of
the Baptist church.
In 1904 Mr. Holt was married to
Miss Glennie Kelly, of Mt. Olive,
who with three sons and four
daughters survive.

Develop New Weapon
To Fight Meningitis
Kansas City—Development of a
cerebro-spinal meningitis toxin that
has checked "two virulent epidem
ics” was reported by an army doc
tor, Capt. Dwight M. Kuhns of
Fort Leavenworth, Kas.
Dr. Kuhns told a medical clinic
here use of his toxin, obtained from
cultures taken from meningitis vic
tims, had brought an abrupt halt
to meningitis development in two
CCC camps.
A similar toxin was developed
previously, he said, but has never
been used in the presence of an
epidemic.
The army doctor’s toxin was ad
ministered to members of a Tarkio,
Mo. CCC camp last spring after
nine meningitis cases appeared and
eight others were reported from
nearby communities. No further
cases appeared in camp, he said.
Similar experience accompanied
use of the toxin at a Burlington,
Kansas CCC camp, he said. In
both instances the disease continued
to appear among non-immunized
persons. Those immunized were
unaffected.
As a result of the Tarkio CCC
Immunication, Dr. Kuhns told the
doctors, Tarkio City officials re
quested the toxin be administered
to school children. None of those
immunized have contracted the dis
ease, he said. Four cases have ap
peared among persons who did not
receive the toxin treatment.
In developing the toxin Captain
Kuhn and his associates obtained
cultures from meningitis victims
and developed them in a broth
medium. The living bacteria was
filtered from the medium and the
filtrate used as the immunizing
substance.

The de-bunking of history goes
merrily on. Most recent puncture
of a favorite fable is the discovery
that Marie Antoinette did NOT say
"Let them eat cake” when told that
millions of French peasants were
starving for want of bread. Com
petent authorities now point out
that the word used by the Queen,
who lost her head for it, was "bri
oche.” And a French "brioche” is
about as much like cake as a Scotch
scone, an English muffin, or an
American biscuit.
Brioche and coffee is the classic
Continental breakfast and, like the
English muffin, is finding increas
ing favor in this country as a wel
come change from the endless repe
tition of toast. You’ll find recipes
for the English muffin, Scotch
scone and French brioche in your
up-to-date cookbook. All are easy
to make, simple and nutritious.

How do you wash your face?—
That sounds like a trick question,
doesn’t it? But cosmeticians tell us
that HOW we wash our faces is of
great importance in preserving the
beauty of smooth, fine-textured
skin and clear complexions. Never
scrub the face, they say, and never
use hot water. To do so en
larges the pores and embeds parti
cles of soap and grit into the skin.
The best method is to make a
creamy lather of soap suds on your
wash cloth and wipe it gently over
the face, using tepid water. Then,
as gently, rinse it all off and fol
low this with a final rinse of cold
water to close the pores and act as
a mild astringent.

Green Gage Mousse: Remove the

plums through a sieve. Add one
third cup sugar and one-fourth cup
corn syrup. Boil for about two
minutes. Soften two teaspoons gela
tin in two tablespoons cold water,
and dissolve in the hot syrup. Cool.
Add one-fourth cup lemon juice,
and, when it begins to set, fold in
one and one-half cups of beaten
cream. Tint green. Pack in a melon
mold and freeze in a mixture of salt
and ice, or in refrigerator trays.
This serves eight persons.
St. Patrick’s Cocktail: Combine
the contents of one No. 2 can of
pineapple juice, one-half cup of

Chill well. Put a green mint cherry
in each tall slim glass, fill with
crushed ice and pour in the cock

Handiest home gadget we’ve
heard of in a long time is a wrap
ping shelf set up in the unused
space of a closet. It is thirty inches
from the floor and as deep as space
will allow. A wall bracket holds a
roll of wrapping paper, and an
other provides a place for twine. If
you’re a paper and twine saver, a
magazine rack under the shelf holds
papers and wall hooks keeps strings
from getting tangled. And the
whole arrangement is such a con
venience for wrapping packages i
and gifts.

Another Stay
For Hauptmann
If Gov. Hoffman Decides
To Grant Reprieve, It
Will Be Legal
Trenton, N. J".—A New Jersey
legal authority said he did not be
lieve Governor Harold G. Hoff
man would be subject to court in
terference should he decide to grant
Bruno Richard Hauptmann a sec
ond reprieve.
The authority said he based his
opinion on a ruling Saturday by
State Supreme Court Justice Harry
Heher, holding the governor "is
responsible to the people alone and
his actions are not subject to in
terference by the courts.” The
ruling was handed down in an ac
tion contesting the governor’s
right to name county election board
members of his own selection.
The Heher opinion, the authori
ty said, would probably be appli
cable in questions of reprieves.
This would mean the only action
that could be taken would be im
peachment proceedings which may
be started only by the state assemb
ly.
Hauptmann, convicted of the
Lindbergh baby kidnap-murder, is
scheduled to die the week of March
30.
The governor said last week he
would grant no further reprieve
"as matters stand” and added his
reprieve powers will have expired
March 12, ninety days from the
day when Supreme Court Justice
Thomas W. Trenchard fixed a new
execution date after (Hauptmann
had lost his appeal to the United
States Supreme Court for a review
of the Flemington trial.
A strong supporter of Hoffman
said he did not believe the governor
would sign a new reprieve.
Nevertheless he is continuing his
investigation of the case in the
belief the crime has not been com
pletely solved.
SEE MORE THAN BILLION
FOR RELIEF
(Continued from page one)
upon the exact^amount he would
ask Congress for relief purposes.
In making known that his special
message on the relief question
would not go forward this week,
Mr. Roosevelt intimated he might
delay it until the outset of his an
nual trip to Florida on March 19.
With a twinkle in his eye, he told
reporters he might leave the mes
sage at the capitol on his way to
the train.
Persistent reports on the Senate
side were that less than the $2,000,
000,000 previously hinted might be
asked. Some senators declared pri
vately they had reason to believe
he would ask for $1,12 5,000,000;
others contended the exact amount
would depend on the carry-over
available from the $4,800,000,000
appropriated last year. In his
budget message in early January,
the President estimated the carry
over then at $1,003,000,000.
Although weak from a recent ill
ness, Senator Robinson read his en
tire speech, and replied extempo
raneously to Vandenberg after the
latter had urged an investigation
for the purpose of a "general ven
tilation” of WPA.
