Boys We believe that this country is passing ap a good opportunity for defense by fail ure to provide military training in the Ci vilian Conservation Camps. However, we do not at tKis time concur in the opinion expressed by some that the camps should be converted entirely into military training establishments. We be lieve that the good work in forestry and soil conservation should go forward and at the same time the boys should be pro- [ vided at least the fundamentals of mili tary and physical training. A conscription bill has been passed in order to strengthen the army and train ad ditional numbers. The National Guard, has been called up for a year of training. Yet at the same time the government has hundreds of thousands of young men in camp under direction of officers of the army and no military training is given them. While we do not suggest that the boys in the camps who are there because of lack of employment should be singled out for military duty, we do not think that they are a privileged class and that they certainly should not escape militory training. They are being well paid and well cared for. We believe they owe it to their country to receive a certain amount of military training. Certainly, they should receive physical training which will make them fit subjects for military service or for any other type of physical work. YADKIN FLOOD CONTROL (Winstort-Salem Journal) Out of the devastating floods which wrought so much destruction in the Yad kin River valley this summer a real bless ing may come. United States Army engineers are study ing plans for a flood control system in the valley. Major Reading Wilkinson, head of the engineering office at Charleston, S. C., having sent a field party into the area to make a comprehensive report on the re cent flood damage. Its report coupled with that of the representative of the U. S. Department of Agriculture may be suf ficient to influence authorities of a flood Miles of Cherrylane, N. C., and CHBMtGE W, MII/BS ' Elder' George Wilson Miles, son of the late Elder William Miles and Margaret (Peggy) Roberts Miles was horn May 10, 1868, and died September 5, 194.0, age 77 yearss 3 months and 25 days. He was married to Lura BHla Gentry April 17. 1892. To this union '^ere born five children: Mrs. Myrtle E. Royal, of Miles; CharUe (Miles, of Traphlll; Dr. Walter W. Miles, of Champion, Major W, Miles, (Deceased) and Prof. Kelly G. Miles of Boone. His wife preceded him In death NoTem'ber 8, 1926, and his son. Major, in July, 1932.

Major Wilkinson told a North Wilkes- boro group, the other day that there arf three feasible plans for flood control in the valley. One would "embrace a dam for flood control only; another a high dam which could be used for flood control and for the development of power. The third plan would embrace the establishment of a series of small dams on tributary streams for flood control only. These plans look toward immediate con trol. The soil conservation and reforesta tion program of the government also has an appreciable part to play in flood con trol, but it looks much further into the fu ture. The interest manifested in the problem by Major Wilkinson stfmurates^Ke' hope that the federal government, which has; placed so much stress on flood control in recent years, will give the Yadkin Valley •WUUam T. Miles, of Elkin, and one sister. Miss Ellen Miles, of|de»troy the entire' remaining Miles. He is also survived by six grandchildren. He joined Liberty Knob Bap tist church In 1885, where he served as Clerk, Deacon and later as pastor. He was clerk of the Primitive Baptist Association for a number of years, later served as Moderator for 24 sessions. His knowledge of the Bible was rare ly surpassed, as he usually read the entire book once each year for twenty-five or more years. He was educated In the Public schools of Wilkes county and at Falrvlew College. Traphlll. He taught in the Public Schools ol Alleghany and Wilkes counties for fifty terms. He was engaged In the mercantile business at Cherrylane four years and later at* M11«8’torw nOkiber He served as Justice of the Peace for about forty years. During this lime his advice was constantly sought and freely given. He prob ably worked out compromises in ten times as many cases as hi National Interest First There is disquieting talk concemin.g “bottleneckss" in the defense program. It is obvious that the time taken in turning planj into production is dangerously long. According to commentators, certain seg ments of American industry are largely at fault, refusing to go ahead and do their jobs unless and until they are assured of excessive profits, without poss bility of loss. Just how accurate these changes are is not known, as the whole defense drive is enveloped in clouds of uncertainty. These clouds must be dissipated. The American people want to know and they the entitled to know just what groups are putting selfish interests ahead of the nati onal interest. The greedy industry, no less than the greedy labor leader or the greedy politician, must be given short shrift. There is no question about the patrio tism of many basic American . industries which are essential to defense. BUt if there is a purely mercenary spirit in some industries—a spirit which thinks only of the big money, and cares not how they make it—^the American people will de mand stem action. There must be profits—no man can build a plant without feeling that even tually he will earn enough to pay for it. But there is a tremendous difference be tween profit and profiteering, even as there is a tremendous difference between the sincere labor leader who seeks to ob tain for the worker a fair return for what he does, and the labor racketeer who seeks to exploit the industries which make employment possible. Industralists, labor leaders and office- " holders who put selfish interests above na- ,ar tional interest, are going to feel the full force otf an aroused people’s wrath, before ‘■'this emergency is over. situation serious study during the next few months and work out a practical plan ever tried, for the control of flood waters throughout He was honest, honorable, lair- the entire area minded, upright and had a char- ine enure area. ^^bove reproach.
