Pearson Brothers Tenth Stwe* North Wilk..h»-., Washington.—President Roose velt Monday guided the embattled new deal into its eighth year aft er attending church and listening with bowed head to fervent pleas for peace abroad and good will in America. The divine appeals were con sidered significant, coming they did when Mr. Roosevelt was engaged in a dramatic diplomatic move associated with pn.ssible new steps to end the European war, and as critics blamed his ad ministration anew for inspiring class warfare and ibitterness at home. Still unrevealed Monday night, however, at the close of seven years of the new deal was wheth er the President would seek a third term. This dispute arose in both houses of Congress Monday. Representative Edwin A. Hall f.R), N. Y., introduced a proposed constitutional amendment to lim it the presidential term to two terms, after observing that the New York legislature had adopt ed an anti-third term resolution. Representative Hamilton Fish of New Y’ork, candidate for the Republican presidential nomina tion. said he would like to see Mr, Roosevelt renominated be cause he wanted to sec “this third term issue decided by the people.” In the Senate, Vice President John N. Garner, actively cam paigning for the Democratic pres idential nomination, laid 'I'efore the chamber, without comment, the resolution of the New’ York legislature asking Congress to enact suitable legislation to “pre vent any president from .seeking a third term.” Barkley Isiiids New Deal The virtue.s of the new deal were pointed nut in a two-hour •speech by Senate Deniocralic Leader Allten W. Barkley, and it.s faults were emphasized by Assist ant Senate Republican Ivcader Warren R. Austin. Barkley dwelt with conditions that confronted Mr. Roosevelt when he took office and of the many-sided attack on the depression. He said the now deal record is so good and so impressive that Republicans seeking the White House post dare not recommend that any of its major acts be re pealed or drastically revised. Austin admitted there was much in the new deaJ that was good, hut he condemned the trend toward centralized govern ment and said that the next ad- ministrntion must “adapt and ad ust to the slow tempo and checks and limitations of Republican government.” Young Democrats* Congressional Ball Set For March 15 Washington.— Plans for the fourth annual congressional ban quet and hall sponsored by the ■N’orlli Carolina Young Dciinocrats’ Clnb of W.sahington were an- noniu-t'd Motuity by Wesley R. .McDonald, :>rc idi'"t I'f the organ- bmlioti and secreiiny to Senator Robert K.

Elkin.—It iwa* estimated by Chatham 'Manufacturing company officials this week that the trans fer of the Winston-Salem division of the plant to Elkin would take > about two more weeks and would | be virtually completed by the mid dle of March. Much of the moving has al ready been done, and four or five trucks are being kept busy haul- j iug machinery to the new build- ; 1 n g from the Winston-Salem ' plant. I The transfer is being made a ■ unit at a time so as not to nece.s- : skate a complete closing down of any department. Workers are be ing transferred a.s the installa tion of machinery gives rise to I need for them. | The company has already j moved into the wet finishing { building and a part of the cloth | finishing department. Yet to be | moved from the Twin City are j the napping department, ship-! ping, and blanket finishing de- ] partments.
