Attaod the 118th annual session
ol tho Brier Creek Association
at the Roaring River Baptist
ehwch Thursifey and Friday of
*tBis week. Rev. N, T. Jarvis, of
this section, is moderator and
9herman G. Crater, of Greens
boro, clerk of the Association,
which includes 32 churches in
Wilkes, Yadkin, Iredell, and
^Alexander, and Is the 13th in
point ol age in North Carolina.
This is the first time the associ
ation has met within walking
distance of this neighborhood
since it met for its centennial at
Brier Creek in 1921 and at An
tioch in 1917.
Considerable renovlsing; is to
be done to old Oak Forest
church, which is the original
building erected when the church
was constituted in 1859. The
long rostrum will be torn out,
and a new, recessed pulpit, simi
lar to Cranberry and Antioch,
will be built. The window-panes,
broken out by the activities of
time, weather, and school chil
dren, will be replaced, and IS
new benches added, according to
reports. The sentimentalists who
“love the Medici” as well as
Miniver Cheevy, may regret to
see the rostrum, which has wit
nessed revivals, associations,
concerts, lectures, and school
classes in the past 75 years, torn
away. But the renovising project
will make more room in the
church, and add to its appear
ance.

Writes Of Singing At
Stony Fork Church
USE COOK’S
c.c. c.
.According to previous appoint
ment, the singing choirs from
the different churches met on
Sunday at Stony Pork church,
to sing under the supervision of
our honorable and beloved chair
man. Bro. James McNeil, who
did his part of the service ex
ceedingly well. There were seveh
churches that represented the
singing convention. They all
.sang well, no one choir excelled
the other, as I believe they, all
did their best, and the best- has
never been beaten. They seemed
to sing with upliHed spirits and
cheerful hearts. There were sev
eral small children, also some
very small, who sang so sweetly.
Tho honorable chairman gave
everyone that was in the house
a chance to sin.g in time and
place, both old and young that
would .sing at all, using no par-
I tiality whatever.

Why
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
HMrpublic is fast returning to the use
of lM]uid laxatives. People have
learned that the right dose of a
iy prepared liquid laxative will
;; .^i^amore'naturalmoveineat with-
any discomfort at the time, or
after.
: llte dose of a liquid laxative can be
varied to suit the needs of the in-
;,iifiTiduai. The action can thus be
'iMiilated. A child is easily given the
lUt dose. And mild liquid laxatives
do not inritate the kidneys.
Doctors art generally agreed that
. senna is a nalurtd laxative. It does
aot drain the system like the cathar
tics that leave you so thirsty. Dr.
Cridwell^ Syrup Pepsin is a liqi^
)-|ogative which relies on senna for its
ativo action. It gently help tim
—.Jrage person’s constipated bowels
fantB nature restores th^ regulanty.

O. it was inspiring to anyone
and heart thrilling - and soul
cheering to listen at the music
and sacred poetry that was at
tached to the music. I think we
ought to thank God for the in
spiration He has given to. men
and women who have composed
the poetry and written the thrill
ing music and who has given
those such strikingly sweet voic
es to sing those songs which is
an imitation of the nobler and
sweeter music that doubtless is
being sung around the great
white throne in the glory land,
by the redeemed.
It was a thrill to my soul to
see such a very, very large con
gregation at my old home church
near where I was raised and
where I first found peace to my
trotibled soul. M’here my dear
old father, mother, brothers and
sisters used to worship together.
But sad to know that I am the
only one of the entire family
that remains on earth.
But the blessed thought, now
comes to me
That some day I will meet them
or'e the sea
No more to take the parting
hand
But dwell with them, in Beulah
laud.

Administrator Of the NRA has
Just been accepted by the Presi
dent. This was ohe of the things
that 'every competent observer
here had been expecting, but no
body knew just when it was com
ing. The General bad been get
ting himself in had with the bus
iness interests concerned under
the NRA cedes for a long time.
Everybody agrees that he did a
splendid job of promotion and
organization, but there is equal
ly unanimous agreement that as
an administrator, now that the
codes are in operation, he ruffl
ed too many feathers that ought
to be smoothed, and aroused too
much resentment by his dictator
ial manner.
It has been understood for
some time that the President was
looking for a way to ease the
General out gracefully. The oc
casion seems to have come be
cause of the General’s speech a
couple of weeks ago, In which he
not only accused the textile
workers’ union of bad faith and
breach of agreement, but took
occasion to drag the name of a
justice of the Supreme Court in
to a controversial matter which
may, and probably will, come be
fore that tribunal for examina
tion.
The Big Error
Johnson said publicly that he
had been in constant touch with
Justice Louis Brandeis, and that
Brandels was opposed to the
NRA because it was too big.
That indiscretion, the latest of
many from the General’s mouth
was too serious to be overlooked.
Justice of the Supreme Court are
“untouchables.” They must not,
by implication or directly, be
dragged into discussions of con
troversial points.
Justice Brandeis is a philoso
pher as well as a jurist. As a
jurist he is presumed, like all the
other justices of the Supreme
Court, not to be influenced in
passing on purely lega. questions
—and no other sort of questions
come before the Court. As a Su-
prefne Court its members are not
concerned with whether a given
policy is right or wrong, whether
it will work or won't work. They
are only concerned with the con
stitutionality of laws enacted by
Congress and the legality of acts
performed under those laws.
Whether they are good laws or
not is not for them to say.
The non-legal mind often
finds it difficult to understand
Iiow a man can personally be
lieve that something is wrong,
yet as a judge decide that it was
right, or at least not Illegal. The
ability to take a completely im
partial attitude on legal ques
tions is what makes a great
jurist; and nobody denies that
Justice Brandeis is a great jur
ist.
Kntliara.ssing Insinuation
It was, naturally, quite em
barrassing for Justice Brandeis
and even more embarrassing for
the President, to have General
Johnson blurt out a statement
which could be used to back up
an insinuation that the Adminis
tration was playing politics with
the Supreme Court. It is a com
mon slur upon the integrity of
that body that “the Supreme
Court always follows the elec
tion returns,” although nothing
could be farther from the truth.
The last thing President Roose
velt desires is to try to influence
the Supreme Court, or to have
the idea prevail that he is try
ing to influence it, either direct
ly or indirectly.
Hence the belief that the lat
est indiscretion of General John
son’s was likely to prove the last
straw, so the General’s graceful
exit had been anticipated days
ahead.
The men who will guide the
destinies of NRA now the Gen
eral is out are expected to be
Bernard M. Baruch, Raymond
Moley and Donald Richberg.
Richberg probably will be the ac
tive head of the re-organized
NRA. Once regarded by business
men as an extreme radical, he
has grown in favor and would
be quite acceptable to most of
the important business and in
dustrial Interests; much more so
than Johnson. Mr. Baruch, who
has not figured much publicly in
Administration affairs, is not
out of favor, as had been rumor-
, ed. He Is still relied upon by the
President for counsel on matters
affecting^*' business. Professor
Moley has been closer to the
President’s ear than anyone else
(without interruption, for more
than two years; and Molley has
learned a lot of practical things
he did not know, and has modi
fied some of his theories in the
light of his newly-aequlred und
erstanding.
The Picture Changing
These three men and others
close to the President have been
urging him to make a public
statement which would sharply
and clearly define the Adminis
tration’s attitude toward the
capitalistic system, private initi-
yet evolved a clear-cut program
for the future. Political consld*'
eratlons set up cross-currents of
Influence In his mlnd,“tendlng to
prevent too complete agreement
with non-pdlltioal economic prin
clples.
Meantime, one of the^ strong
est radical influenees. favoring
drastic^ Govesalijfental control
and regulation of/-8verything, is
passing out of the picture. Whe
ther Profeasoi*'' Tugwell retains
his post in ' he Administration^ or
not, it is the fixed belief here
that his Influence on the Presi
dent’s mind is decidedly on the
wane.
HIGH COURT TO ACT
ON NEW DEAL CASES
Washington, Sept. 29.—Jus
tices of the Supreme court gath
ered In the capital today for the
opening on Monday of what ap
pears likely to be the tribunal’s
most historic term.
In the hands of the nine jns
tlces will be cases holding possi
bility of sustaining or upsetting
major parts of the new deal. Al
ready before the court are five
cases arising out of Roosevelt re
covery laws.
Simultaneously with the courts
gathering a compilation of cases
Involving the NRA and AAA In
the lower courts showed today
that the new deal has a batting
average ol .768 in these legal
jousts.
The United States Law Week
in its next issue will publish the
following score sheet for actions
in lower federal courts;
Cases instituted under the
NRA and AAA—232 cases in
which trial courts have acted—
99.
Won by government (favor
able court action)—76.
Lost by government (unfavor
able court action) 23, percent
age—.768.
“The relative success scored
by government counsel should
be discounted somewhat,” the
Law Week will say, “since in 12
of the cases counted as resulting
in court action favorable to the
government the decrees were en
tered by consent; in some of the
criminal cases the defendants
pleaded guilty; and the favor
able action taken In a few other
cases was the entry of a terapor-
a r y injunction pending final
hearing.
“Considering only decisions in
which federal courts have an
nounced opinions on the consti
tutionality of the national recov
ery and agricultural adjustment
acts, the government’s score is
not so high. Its percentage in
such cases has been only about
50 per cent.’’
Of the "new deal” cases pend
ing before the Supreme court,
until today, three were from the
east Texas oil field. In general
they attacked the authority of
the federal government under
the NRA to control oil produc
tion. Two others from New York
assail the authority of Congress
to prohibit gold hoarding and
suspend gold payments.
2,455 STUDENTS WILL
GET $36,825 MONTHLY
Raleigh, Oct. 2. — Monthly
grants of $36,825 each to 2,455
college students in North Caro
lina to help them stay in col
lege, were announced from the
office of Mrs. Thomas O’Berry
this afternoon.
This is the detailed statement
of the Emergency Relief admin
istration on the allotments to
North Carolina. It represents an
average of $15 for each student,
though subsequent instructions
from Washington have made it
possible to employ this $15 for
the help of two or more students
with the understanding that the
basic allotment in funds is not
changed. The 2,466 students re
ceive $15 each for a total of
$36,825 a month, but It Is pos
sible that 3,000 students could
get help provided the amounts
did not exceed the $36,825.

Altho^h Monday was -‘'the

"It Is an unique case, very

skull and brain, lodging at the
case of the brain.
“The fact that she Is living at

perfectly normal and is doing
well. The end Is not In sight yet,
however. We may have to oper

No one knew definitely that
Barbara Lois had been shot un

She was playing with her sister,
Wilma, 6. Richard Heath, 11,
and Carol Lou Heath, 3, when
she fell unconscious.
Her parents, Mr. and Mrs.

had been cut by a broken bot

immediately. X-ray, examination
revealed the bullet. She regained
consciousness quickly under
treatment. She could think clear
ly and even remembered being
knocked down.
"Something hit me,” she said
simply.
The police homicide squad,
notified of the case by St. Vin
cent’s hospital authorities, quiet
ly began investigating to find
who had fired the shot. As rah-,
bits run in a field across the
street (rom the Lamont home,
detectives believed the child may
have been shot by a hunter.
