GIGANTIC “HOOK-UP’’
INDIFFERENCE TO CRIME
By ARTHUR BRISBANE
The bursting of a dam, part of
Los Angeles water supply in San
Francisco Canyon, cost hundreds of
lives. Reasons are given for the
dam giving away, but no adequate
excuse. “Water, seeping into the
earth at each end of the dam, weak
ened the hold of the great concrete
wall.” It should be someone’s busi
ness to learn why the dam was built
that way—and what danger there is
at other dams. Why fragments of!
IToken concrete crumbled in the!
fingers.

Compared with familiar disaster,
by flood, California’s accident is i
fortunately mild. There was the i
big flood that drowned all but Noah
and his family. The rainbow guaran- ;
tees against a repetition of that kind i
of calamity, but small floods have j
wrought havoc.
Five hundred years ago in Hoi- j
land 100,000 were drowned and at
Kaifong, China, nearly three hund
red years ago 300,000 lost their
lives; 200,000 were drowned at
Bengal, in Indi£, fifty years ago. j
Many times in history eruptions of
the sea, river floods and similar dis-;
asters have taken 100,000 lives and
more at a time. This country can !
congratulate itself upon the fact that |
the Mississippi flood of last year, de- (
stroying hundred of millions in prop-1
erty, cost only two hundred lives, j
That was due to admirable - work be- (
ing done by the army and navy, and !
to prompt scientific direction of Her- j
bert Hoover, chosen by President !
Coolidge in the emergency.
The Census Bureau says United j
States population on July Ist next;
will be 120,000,000. At the end j
of this century, if births, deaths, im
migration and health run alon©- as
at present, the population will be
260,000,000. If the larger per cent
of that number know how to think
it will be quite a nation.
In the last eight years population
has increased 14,302,832. The an
nual arrvial of babies exceed by one
million the number of deaths. That
is good news for the editor publish
ing an up-to-date paper. Bill Cur
ley, formerly of Chicago, now of
New York, used to say, “Every birth
is a new reader for my paper, every
death of an old man means a reader
forever lost to the opposition.” And
it was true.
A gigantic “hook-up” of radio sta
tions will enable 8,000,000 American
people to hear all that goes on in the
Democratic and Republican conven
tions.
From the first announcement of
Alabama’s choice, to final howling
when the winner is announced, every
thing will be heard. However, sad
to relate, many of the 8,000,000 that
might listen to the convention will
not listen. They will tune in for
jazzy music, sad heart-rending songs
or daily dozens to keep thin. In this
nation, where only half vote that
might vote, there is little deep in
terest in politics.
Speaking of slush funds, bribes,
etc., you should read the book writ
ten by Judge Kavanaugh, of Chi-'
cago, after thirty-three years on the
bench. Three hundred and fifty
thousand individuals make their liv
ing, partly or entirely, by crime in
our happy country, he says. Last
year they contributed 12,000 mur
ders to the nation’s news items.
Public indifference is to blame,
says the Judge. Each country gets
as much crime as its indifference
deserves. Judge Kavanaugh favors
use of the whip because:
“No crime leader retains the
respect of his gang after he has win
ced under the lash. Th P moron and
racketeer fear that cat o’ nine tails
more than prison. Our 350,000 crim
inals steal yearly enough to build
the Panama Canal.”
They steal more than that. And
public gambling at racetracks, an
other form of crime, legalized by
grafting politicians, takes from the
public each year enough to build
the Panama Canal three times.
have some millions of farm
ers that would like to run this coun
try, partly, but they don’t know
how to go about it. No real organ
ization for one thing. Next fall they
will get wonderful promises and
then think it over four more years.

WASHINGTON, April 3.—Con
gress saw a ghost last week. Gaunt
and grisly, axe in hanu, it trod with
softened footfall the marble floors
of House and Senate. It floated eth
ereally into the holy committee room
and leaned on the annointed of the
people. It snuggled close to Repub
lican leaders and mocked in wraithful
pantomine their foes, the Demo
crats. It stalked the corridors, a
living fear of a day soon to come
when congress must go back to those
j whence it cam eand give a stern ac
j counting of its stewardship.
In other words, the politicians on
1 Capitol Hill cocked their eyes to
ward the calendar and said, “Great
| grief, here it is nearly four months
I since we got to Washington and we
haven’t given the country even a
smidgeon of what it pants for. Pri
maries are just around the corner
j and election day around the block.
| Get busy.”
! The ghost of election day promptly
| prodded the legislative loiterers to ,
action. The idlers stopped idling,
i the workers got busy, the boys down
! in the engine room got the signal
| and the old ship of Stat P began to 1
j pick up speed. ;
i Having loafed for a big slice of
four months, the Senate suddenly
j shucked its coat and vest and in
( something like an hour passed a 1
j flood control bill authorizing the
: government to shackle the Mississ- i
I ippi and its kin at a cost estimated ;
| to be not less than $325,000,000. It
I was one of the most surprising things 1
i ever done by that prize surprise, the i
i Senate. The gallant Senators charg
| ed up to the Capitol in their lim- 1
ousines at noon and along about 4 ]
' o’clock they charged out again with j
' the bill passed and flood control shot 1
! through on greased skids. i
Hardly a mother’s son of the <
princely tribe had dreamed at noon :
that such a thing- would come to i
pass. In away, it was like being
hit on the head by a falling- brick.
Nobody was looking for it and it was '
over in a twilkling. And now flood i
over in a twilkling. And now flood <
Read committee, busy as a flea- ]
bound pup with its own program, has 1
reported out a bill somewhat siini '
lar but authorizing $473,000,000 for i
the job. ]
Here is what the Senate bill pro- I
vides for, in the main : (
The building of floodways and
spillways and raising th P height of 1
the levees to keep the Mississippi in ’
bounds between Cairo, and the Gulf, 1
surveys looking to control of tribu- i
taries; a re-survey of the Tennessee i
with a view to levee construction; 1
the creation of a commission to car- :
ry on the work, and federal control 1
of the program in its entirety as 1
well as federal assumption of the
entire cost. i
While $325,000,000 i s authorized, <
the cost probably will be much great- 1
er. The Senate is minded to spend 1
whatever is necessary, no matter how i
much. !
Over on the House side, the ghost 1
walked along the corridor leading to j
the farm relief deliberations. It j
will b p recalled that the House com- :
mittee has been considering farm re- 1
lief for many months. It suddenly '
swung into action last week by re- 1
porting to the House a bill which <
seemed to tickl P pleasantly almost <
' everybody on Capitol Hill.
The bill, described by Chairman <
Haugen as “the best farm bill ever :
reported to congress,” has plucked ;
out every single eye-sore to which ]
Mr. Coolidge objected, save equal
ization fe P machinery. It would au- i
thorize a 8250,000,000 appropria- <
tion for loans to co-operatives (the i
Senate bill provides $400,000,000)
would include all agricultural com- ;
modities and would give the Presi- i
dent a fre P hand in selecting the
proposed board, except for confirm
ation by the Senate.
There is little doubt that the bill
will pass both Houses, although the
dollar difference is to be adjusted,
and trot up smilingly to the White
House. Washington is now engaged
in guessing whether it will be given
a kiss or a kick when it gets there.
These two great problems, flood
control and farm relief, have been
dragging alonp- ever since congress
met. They would still be dragging
along, hopelessly mired, if somebody
hadn’t looked at the calendar and
there seen the shadow of the ap
proaching primaries. Both programs
have been loaded with political dy
namite and bunk. It has taken the
nearing- approach of elections to get
action.
There were other doings and
cutting-ups on Capitol Hill as well.
PITTSBORO, N. C., CHATHAM COUNTY. THURSDAY, APRIL 5, 1928
Shipman Announces
Former Commissioner of Labor
and Printing Wll be a Can
didate Again.
M. L. Shipman, who for 16 years
was commissioner of labor and
printing, but; was ousted from the
position two years ago, has again
announced his candidacy.
He asks for a comparison of the
administration of th p office under
himself and Mr. Grsit, and suggests
that the comparison is in his favor,
as it rather unquestionably is.
He quotes the figues of the for
mer first primary and accounts for
his defeat in the second primary by
the absence of many friends of his
who did not vot P because they thot
Grist could not overcome his lead of
more than 11,000 in the first pri
mary.
He seems to have G. A. Moore as
campaign manager, who states that
Mr. Shipman will use the newspapers
to bring his cnadidacy to the at
tention of th e people rather than re
sort to barn doors, telephone posts,
etc.
As the race will probably be three
cornered, it will be interesting- to
watch the outcome. This and the
rac P for the position of lieutenant
governor will probably be the real
contests of the state primary. Oth
er state officiels have not yet met
with any opposition.
Mack Opposes Pou
Raleigh Man Throws Hat In
to Ring Against Veteran
Congressman.
The Record is in receipt of an an
nouncement of Paul W. Mack for
nomination for congress in this dis
trict against E. W. Pou.
Mr. Mack has been connected
with the cotton association for sev
eral years, but has resigned to give
his full time the next two months
to his campaign.
He comes out as the friend of
the farmers and as a business man,
as opposed to the usual lawyer for
the congressional post.
The News and Observer states
that he is secretary of the Raleigh
local Ku Klux Klan.
If Mr. Mack is known in this coun
ty, it is on a rather small scale, we
presume, and whatever his merits he
will have uphill work to win against
the veteran Pou, who is linked with
this county by a Pittsboro wife.
Mr. Pou had already announced
that he would support the Farm Re
lief bill, which he opposed last con
gress, but now r favors because of
the impossibility of bringing the far
mer upon a level with the other in
dustries ithrough removal of the
favoring tariffs and other govern
mental favors.
Years ago the popular puzzle was
“How old is Ann?” Now it is “How
many people are out of a job?” Mr.
Coolidge’s highly efficient Labor De
partment dripped honeyed words last
week in explaining- that really there
wasn’t anything at all to this hard
times talk becaus P only 1,847,000
people were out of work, and any
how there were always about 1,000,-
000 that way, even in boom times.
The Democrats jumped on that
with both feet and bawled it out.
They have got some good figurers,
too, and they figured that the un
employed were about 4,000,000. And
there you are; take your choice. It
would seem that the best way to
settle the question would be to count
the poor devils, but so far nobody
has thought about that.
Mr. Coolidge screwed up his face
a little tighter last week when Un
cle Andy Mellon told him about
those tax returns. It seems that
the returns are coming- in big, but
that the boys up on Capitol Hill are
spending the family substance a bit
too fast. The result, Mr. Mellon
announced, more in sorrow than in
anger, “was that taxes could not
safely b P cut as much as he had
thought they could four months ago.
Two hundred millions seems to be
the limit. At this the Democrats
emitted loud guffaws. They point
ed out that Uncle Andy has always
uncorked several hundred millions
of excess surplus at the end of each
fiscal year and they began to ex
amine his figures to see where the
money is concealed this year.
This tax business is regarded by
som P observers as a lot of humbug
gery. They have put it down in
their little notebooks that there isn’t
going to be any tax cut this year
and they probably are right. Too
many other things need attention.
Farm relief, flood control, the army,
the navy, public bui^dil^^ge , , better
pensions and other similar gadgets
require financial polishing: off.
The Federal Reserve Board, whist
ling as it passed the cemetery, said
nervously that business was getting
much better, oh, dear, and of course,
everybody engaged in business quit
worrying at once. Meantime, the
House heard what a fine fellow Mr.
Frank Lowden is and the Senate
laughed at a caricature of Herbert
Hoover, drawn by Mr. Neely of W.
Virginia.
Lindy continued to fly over Wash
ington. He has sent almost the en
tire membership of congress up in
the air on 110 flights and, accord
ing to latest rumors, is planning a
good-will flight around the world.
Cap-setting mammas of Washington
went after him again, but failed
once to get him in their nets.

Fine U.D.C. Meeting
The Winnie Davis chapter of the I
United Daughters of Confederacy |
met at the home of Mrs. Arthur Hill j
London on March 15, 1928, with j
Mesdames London, W. B. Chapin and !
E. B. Hatch hostesses. There were j
26 members present.
Mrs. J. M. Gregory, our new pres- •
ident, opened the meeting with the j
Lord’s prayer repeated in concert.
This meeting was, indeed, a sad !
one, as our beloved president, Mrs. |
Walter D. Siler, had passed away i
since the previous meeting. Mrs. j
Henry A. London, president emer
itus and mother of the Winnie Da
vis Chapter, read a beautiful tribute
to . the life of Mrs.. Siler. Motion
was made and carried that we spread
a copy of this memoriam on the min
utes, send a copy to the family and ;
one to the Chatham Record for pub- !
lication.
In the absence of the treasurer, i
Mrs. C. C. Hamlet was asked to col- i
lect dues. The state tax has been ;
paid. The sum of $124.10 has been ;
paid out for various causes since the
last meeting.
Mrs. W. B. Chapin, chairman of
relief committee, reported flowers
sent to Mrs. W. M. Eubanks who has
been ill in the hospital, also design
for Mrs. Siler’s grave. Notes of ap
predation wer p read from Mrs. Eu
banks, Mr. Siler and Mr. D. L. Als
ton.
Repo rt on sick veterans. Mr.
Clay Clegg continues about the
same. The chapter received note of
thanks from Mr. A. D. Burnett’s
family expressing- thanks for oran
ges.
O ur president read a note from
Mrs. Manning, State president, U. D.
C., sympathizing with the chapter
in the loss of our beloved president
Mrs. Mannnig stated she would no
tify us later in regard to the exact
date of the district meeting which
is to be held in Durham in April.
This chapter is entitled to four dele
gates at this meeting. We hope to
hav P at least twenty present.
A very interesting letter was read
by Mrs. James H. Cordon, former
member, at Selma, Ala. This com
mittee is asking for a donation of $5
from every chapter so that a mem
orial can be built marking the site
of the arsenal where so much of
our ammunition was made during
the war.
A letter was read from Miss Mar
tha Haywood, suggesting that we
give pictures for the chapel at the
Soldiers’ Home. Motion was made
and carried thta we put pictures of
Generals Lee and Jackson and Pres
ident Davis in the Chapel—size of
these pictures to be decided on af
ter we have seen the Chapel.
Invitation was extended to the
chapter by Mrs. Arthur London from
Mr. D. L. Alston, to meet with them
at their lovely country home in
Hickory Mt., once each year.
The hostess presented our new
president.
The hosteses served delicious ice
cream and cake.
JUNIOR-SENIOR PARTY
One of the most charming affairs
of th P commencement season was a i
banquet given Saturday night, March j
31st, by the Junior class in honor j
of the senio rclass. The guests were ;
received at the door by Mrs. Jonnie 1
Bell. The ninth grade room was j
turned into a reception room, and ;
was charmingly decorated with the j
class colors. A salad course was j
served and the program was thor
oughly enjoyed.
Miss Clairene Mims president of j
the Junior class gave a toast to the
Seniors which was responded to in
behalf of the seniors by Miss Cleo
Cotton. The program was closed by
a piano solo by Mrs. Bell.

Victim of Midnight Assassin
Identified as Mrs. Annie
Terry, of Durham—Body Is
Discovered Monday Morn
ing.
The mystery of the midnight cry
and plunge into the waters of the
Cape Fear at A vent’s bridge was
partially solved when the body of
Mrs. Annie Terry was discovered
three miles below the bridge early
Monday morning, after nearly nine
days within the red waters.
The discovery of a woman’s hat
with blood upon it a few miles from
the scene of th p tragedy was the
I first real clue to the actuality of the
crime, and led to the identification
of Mrs. Terry as the owner of the
hat. It was positively identified by
her children in Durham after read
ing a description of it in the daily
press. The daughter of Mrs. Terry
was confident that her mother, who
had been missing since the very eve
ning of th p tragedy, was the Victim
of foul play. It is stated that it
was Mrs. Terry’s habit to spend the
week end away from home occa
sionally, and she had started with
her son to meet the bus when she
excused him and went alone. He
had a date which he wanted to keep.
The most intelligible clue to the
| perpetrator of the crime led to the
| suspicion of a man supposed to live
! in South Carolina. On the strength
j of this information Sheriff Blair and
* Deputy Desei'n scurried away to lo
i cate this man if they could. They
| returned Sunday night without any
: developments, at least any that they
i would make public. It was upon the
j heels of their return that the word
| came that the body had been found
I Monday morning.
Hundreds and thousands had visi
| ted the scene of the murder during
the week since the news of the crag
! edy had been broadcast over the
| state, and an immense crowd from
! all quarters was there Sunday. But
all the while there were men on the
. look out, as there was offered SIOO
| reward for the discovery of the body.
; Lennie Buchanan was the discov
erer of the gruesome evidence of
the midnight murder. The body
had floated down the stream for
nearly three miles to within a short
distance of the Buckhorn dam. Just
above the dam a cable is stretched
! across th P stream just at the water
; level to stop drifts from reaching the
j dam. Early Monday morning, Mr.
i Buchanan saw an arm sticking above
i the water and caught by this cable,
i The body had, as predicted, risen
I within the nine days, and was dis
covered afloat with an arm hooked
ed over the cable.
It was nearer the Chatham side
than the Lee side of the river and
the body was brought out upon the
Chatham side. Accordingly, the
Chatham coroner, Mr. George
. Brooks, went down and held an in
quest. The following gentlemen
composed the jury: R. M. Connell,
A. T. Ward, J. D. Mclver, J. R. Poe,
E. E. Williams, N. J. Wilson. After
a view of the body and its identifi
cation by the daughter, the inquest
adjourned to Pittsboro, where it was
completed that afternoon. The ses
sion at Pittsboro was held behind
closed doors, with the desire, pre
sumably, to prevent the circulation
of any revelation as to th P identity
of the murderer before his capture,
providing that identity should be ni
dicated, but they got no evidence
as to the perpetrator and rendered
a verdict of death at the hands of
an unknown person.
The body was described by one
who saw it as swollen and the face
badly bruised. However, there seem
ed to be no broken bones, and the
fact that the woman could cry so
loud when straggling with her mur
derer and could be heard calling for
help after beine- tjhrown into the
stream from a height of possibly 15
feet, indicates that, despite the pres
ence of blood o nthe bridge and upon
the hat, sh ewas not very seriously
injured by whatever blows were
struck before the plunge into the
red waters of the Cape Fear.
The body was taken in charge by
a Durham undertaker and carried to
Durham. The burial was at Char
lotte. Th P body was not allowed
to public at Durham.
Yet to be revealed are the per
petrator of the crime and his motive.
But Chatham county officers are
working upon the clues, and if the
arrest of the fiend is possible will
in good time bring him to taw.
stM BCnofteicp shrdluetaoicmfwypn
As the middle of the river is the
line between Lee and Chatham and
as there is a question as to which
county the crime was committed in,
the Chatham county commissioners,
accompanied by W. P. Horton, coun
i ty attorney, went down to the Lee
! court house Monday afternoon to
j consult with the Le P county com
; missioners upon the matter oi juris-
I diction and the question of the cost
| of the case from its incipiency to
the final conviction of the perpetra
j tor, if that ever happens. It was
; felt that it is a matter for the co
operation of the two counties. And
| yet the crime belongs rather to the
I state than to either county. Nei
ther the murderer nor the victim be
longs to Chatham or Lee, it is very
evident.
The crime took place within just
a short distance of the shooting of

REPUBLICANS HOLD
CHATHAM MEETING
Delegates to State And Dis
trict Conventions Low
den Endorsed
The Republicans of the county
held their convention for the elec
tion of the delegates to the state
conventions Saturday, March 31. AU
the townships except Gulf and Oak
land were represented. There was
a right good little bunch of repre
sentatives out.
The convention was called to or
der by S. W. Willett, of Bear Creek
township, chairman of the executive
committee. Mr. L. L. Wrenn presid
ed over the convention and Mr. D.
W. Smith, of Hickory Mountain, ser
ved as secretary.
The first business transacted was
th P selection of delegates to the state
convention, which meets in Raleigh,
April 11. The following were chos
en as delegates and alternates:
Albrights, John F. Duncan, Fred
D. Jerry Baldwni, W. F. Norwood,
R. S. Smith; Bear Creek, S. W. Will
ett, C. P. Phillips; Cape Fear, I. H.
Hearne, T. H. Windam; Center, C.
M. Matthews, A. M. Riddle; Hadley,
W. S. Thomas, G. M. Clarke; Haw
River, C. D. Wilkie, W. B. Moore;
Hickory Mountain, Jas. M. Perry, N.
J. Dark; New Hope, W. D. Beckwith,
F. M. Holleman; Matthews, J. J. Jen
kins, 1. D. Stout; Williams, J. W.
Carson, A. J. Riggsbee.
The foregoing were nominated
from the townships represented and
the following were chosen by the
convention to make up the full allow
ance of 14 delegates and alternates:
Delegates, L. L. Wrenn, W. D. Smith,
C. C. Routh; alternates, W. P. Mor
gan. J. L. Glosson, I. W. Farrell.
Congressional Delegates
The following were named as del
egates to the Congressional conven
tion: J. F. Duncan, Ray Riggsbee, S.
W. Willett, L. N. Womble, C. R.
Hearne, W. F. Jones, C. D. Wilkie,
Ernest Brewr, L. L. renn, Robert

der, J. T. Self, W. B. Moore, M. B.
McMath, I. D. Stout, J. P. Harwood,
J. G. Bennett, W. F. Crutchfield, G.
F. Siler.
The same gentlemen will also rep
resent the county at the senatorial
convention, which is to be held April
10 at Raleigh, the day before the
state convention.
Resolutions
The following were a committee
on resolutions and offered several
recommending- greater economy in
expenditures, etc: L. P. Dixon, M.
H. Woody, L. N. Womble, J. R.
Matthews, N. J. Dark.
The following were appointed an
executive committee: S. W. Willett,
chairman; D. L. Smith, J. R. Matth
ews, Walter Morgan, J. J. Jenkins.
Possibly the most significant trans
action of all was the instruction of
the delegates to support Lowden.
However, there was quite a bunch
of Hoover men present, but they
made no objection to tihe instruction
for the “friend of the farmer.”
DID MURDERER VISIT SCENE
OF HIS CRIME?
Mr. Younger Farroll, who lives
near the scene of the Cape Fear
murder, is confident that the man
who threw Mrs. Terry into the riv
er was among the crowd milling
around the bridge the day follow
ing the crime and also passed across
the bridg P on Monday and Tuesdiy
following.
Someone who crossed the bridge
just before the murder reports see
ing a Chandler car with yellow
wheels on the bridge. A man in a
car of that description was there the
next day and was asking what the
stir was about. When Mr. Farrell
told him, the fellow said that it was
probably someone drowning puppies
and that his wife was with him and
cried out when the puppies happen
ed to get crushed against the bridge,
and that the sack of puppies might
be found in the stream but nobody.
Mr. Farrell remarked that the car
was just like the one driven by the
stranger and that his tires would
fit exactly the tracks left by the
murderer’s car. Thereupon the man
stepped upon the gas and highballed
it.
The fellow also had a South Caro
lina license, which is said to be the
kind of license borne by the car of
the man suspected of taking Mrs.
Terry from Durham.
BYNUM SCHOOL
The contract for the building- of
the Bynum school building was let
last week to Mr. Stout of Sanford.
Thp county borrowed $34,000 from
the state for the purpose of building
this school.
the Lee county sheriff at a distillery
a year and a half ago, the trial of
which case cost Lee thousands of
dollars. Lee had another murder
committed only a day or two after
the bridge crime, when a naged lad'-
near Broadway was ravished and
killed by some fiend.
Thus the two counties with the
automobile gang of outsiders to b**
tried at Pittsboro, the bridge case
of outsiders to be worked up and
determined by this or the two coun
ties in cooperation, and the trial
for the murder of th P aged woman
in Lee, will have much court, big
crowds, and big expenses.
