Airport It An Asset North Wilkesboro would make no mis- ,ke in providing the necessary funds to ue or purchase a site for an airport. We are confident that the taxpayers of the city would approve such a stand and it is to be hoped that the physical equipment n^essary can be provided. Construction of an airport would mean 'employment for a large number of jobless men and judging from the list at the Na tional Re-employment office here, there are hundreds who need work. The CWA has funds available for the project, we nnderstand, which cannot be used on any dtiier type of project. Here is an addition al reason why every effort possible should be made to get the airport project across. In the years to come, an airport will be -a far greater asset than one is considered i .fipw.. An airport would be looking ahead - to the day when one will be necessarjr for every city of importance. Columbia Wins Well, Columbia University’s Lions sur- "^rised W hei adhered to has lea8enfiff';^;^Wfict for Utate autiuarity and the various iatendons drftaite rtatement that no time would be allowed have led the public to doubt whether the, state officials meant what they said especially as regards auto* mobile licenses. The definite stand taken this year will have a wholesome effect. It will help to dissipate the idea that motorists can dis regard the law day after day and get by with it. The fact that 100,000 or more automo bile owners have parked their cars for the time being is to be regretted, however. The loss in revenue from gasoline tax will be terrific. The evidence on every hand is that something should be done about the cost of these state plates. The idle cars will cost the state not less than $12,000 daily. And if they stay idle 80 days, the total loss will be, estimating the average loss per car as 12 cents, $860,000. The cost should be cut to about $6 per automobile and a somewhat larger amount for trucks. It would pay in the long run and give a little relief to the over-taxed automobile owner. 6eb«U ' of the the memben II-.ware; Borrowed Comment almost everybody and defeated .Stanford’s Indians in the annual Rose Bowl classic Monday. And what a laugh 'tile public got out of recalling the predic tions of sports writers and editors, includ- "inifthe editor of The Journal-Patriot. 'i ' W# took it on the chin along with thousr ands of others. Rated the underdogs by a big margin, Lou Little’s charges played a sensational game and came out on the long end of a 7 to 0 score. All of which tends to prove that if you’re placing real coin on a football ^ game, read the sports writers’ comments and then go thou and do otherwise. This not, of course, a sports column and we profess tp nothing more than a slight knowledge of football, so we didn’t advise ^ anyone to bank on our prediction. ^ The Columbia Lions proved that “the team that hasn’t a chance’’ can make a Chance. Maybe there’s a moral in that for ,:all of us.

It Is a Nation of people whose faces have been lifted to the light and whose hopes for bet ter things in store are founded on what has been wrought since Roosevelt was Inaugurated Presi dent, a few short months ago. To realise the changes that have been brought to pass, one has only to contrast the situation st this time last year with he situations developed at present. The results flowing from the Roosevelt recovery plans are but little short of miraculous. Indeed, Frank lin D. Roosevelt might be properly classed as the Miracle Man. It is only with recent days that our own country and the Nations of the earth havf been able to visualize the full stature of the man at the head of the American Government. The picture of Roosevelt has become of familiarity not ( only over our own country, but over the remotest sections of the earth. It Is not so much what he has accomplished for his own country, but the hope he has established over the world that makes Roosevelt really great. He has wrought wonder ful changes on the condition of our own people, but far above that, he has pointed the world to the way of peace. Roosevelt’s speech at the Woodrow Wilson birthday dinner was one intend ed for other Nations than the United States. Es tablishment of world peace was, uppermost in his mind and he pointed to the only sure way this can be accomplished. If the political leaders can be held in the background and alL Nations will fol low the President’s suggestion to sign a pact binding each Nation not to cross its own borders into the territory of another Nation, we will have no more wars. Of course, this is a blanket propo sition. It would not be operative unless all Na tions should join in—and France and Germany, Italy and Great Britain, Japan and Russia should lead in signing up. Other Nations would follow and the best guarantee against war that could he’’ devised would have been established. At the same time. President Roosevelt made explicit declaration that the future policy of the United States is one of non-intervention. Our country is not going to acquire any territory by military aggression, and when and if, occasion develops, that this Nation must protect the inter ests of citizens in another Nation we are not go ing to make a military move, but invite the of fending Nation to sit at the conference table and negotiate a peaceful adjustment. Meantime, affairs at home have been adjusted in a way to make all Americans rejoice, for the Roosevelt recovery plans have been bringing ^re sults. The success attained so far is evidence that the recovery program can be and is to be carried to a conclusion of permanent benefit to the N%^ tion. Not only is the economic situation to he placed on a new and more equitable basis, but the social order is to become a new and a better one. In short, the United States starts upon the New Year with the situation of every man, woman and child materially improved over the distresses qf 19S3, and with the prosp it Mtablished of con tinued improvement under the new condition made possible under the foresight di a leader whose name is now being proclaimed over the world. The United States has not only a President for itself, but a world leader. paefUc Hospital at 0iteionis'*tn 1988.
