WtLLIAM McK. PEARSALL
I of William McK. Pearsall has removed
frofn oor-community one of its most useful and also one of
„its best-liked citizens.
E tiAjSnber of a pioneer Dunn family, Mr. Pearsall was
born here and lived here all his life. He knew the town
,and its history as only a few of the old-timers know it.
founded and operated his own business
a successful business career. The firm he
operated has proven throughout the years to be a real as
set to the town.
-~j£ftl»s u gh a busy person, Mr. Pearsall never got too
bus”to fihd his place in church and to devote his energy,
time and means to those projects which helped make this
a better community.
He was a leader in the Dunn Presbyterian Church
and fqt ijiore than 20 years had served as an elder. He had
also Ireid numerous other positions in his church and the
various church organizations.
; Personally, Mr. Pearsall was a quiet, easy-going,
good-natured individual—a man who always had a cheer
ful wordfor those with whom he came in contact and a
maJfffSTwfys ready, willing and anxious to give encourage
ment and his assistance he could to his, friends and fel
low man. Because of those outstanding character traits,
Bill Peafsall was a man with a great host of friends.
flkWise of the passing of this good citizen, our town
IS pacuaju-indeed.

The auto was parked In the sun, it was locked and in the front seat,
a poor little dog was panting for breath. Probably the owner Os car and
dog would argue that he loved animals, but this is an odd Way to show
it. Dogs and cats take a real beating from Summer heat, so if you
love ’em, don’t be thoughtless about the special problems hot weather
presents to our little and big friends.
F’rinstance, if you’re going on a vacation ,and you don’t want to
take along the cat, because she’s expecting a litter of kittens, dftn’t
leave the poor thing alone and friendless. Call up ASPCA and have
them call for the cat and arrange to have them take care of her. Do
the same for your dog. Don’t abandon them.
The American Society for Prevention of Cfuelty to Anlihatt has
taken care of 13,000,000 small animals Sihce Henry Bergh founded It,
back in 1866. He was the former Ambassador to Russia, a sensative,
literate man of good will. He also founded the American Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. |

Brooklyn, of course, tops the five borough Shelters in variety of
guests. Arthur L. Amundsen tells me that his tenants include 210 dogs,
23 cats, two suckling pigs, one pigeon, one snake, one rabbit, four ducks,
two hawks, one alligator.
The suckling pigs, he suspects, were dropped from a slaughter
house truck. Generally* the Btpqklyn ASPCA shelter has a,few stray
goats, too, but none were regb^odve^MAtfay.

hasn’t the facilities to board animals, unless we arr forcett-’-jto do It
by hardship cases. If people haven’t money enough to pay kennel rates
then we suggest that they leave their dog or cat or canary with friends
or relatives.”
ASPCA rules for taking care of awtmals ui Summer are quite sim
ple. Leave fresh water available, and change the water, if possible,
three or four times a day. Dogs and cats like fresh, cool water. Instead
of water that’s been standing for hours at a time-'- j
If possible, clean off a piece of floor so .that the dog doesn’t have
to lie down on rugs or carpets. In hot weather, he prefers oilcloth it
wood flooring. And your dog wlll prefer to be walked in cool of day or
evening. '
Animals, like humans, enjoy a cooling bath, not ice cold. If you’re
taking them along in the car, don’t let them stick their heads but it
the window. Flying objects can damage their eyes badly. And when
you take them on car trips, take along a leash, a bottle of water, and a
dish so they can drink. -■ !•:
In Central Park, you will see an ASPCA water cart. It is stationed
there, and along the waterfront, because most horses are In those
areas. You kids are reminded not to Steal faucets-off water fountain
troughs for animals. They cost SSO a piece and the ASPGA hasn’t got
too much money, so help them out in their endeavor to help dogs and
cats. ’

I’ve had a deg ever since my first one bit me on the left hand. It
wasn’t his fault, either. He was a little bulldog and he ran into son*

The hot weather seems to have him upset, so that’s what reminded

U. N. AND THE PRESS
- The United Nations gradually,
through its various committees, iy
moving Into world government,
and the country that it uses as
its testing ground is the United
States. Few Americans are con
scious of this activity of the
United Nations and many of those
who know what is being done >£
the various committees refuse to
believe that any of it can have
any permanent effect on Ameri
can institutions.
Yet under the charter of the
United Nations, which in the
American political system is a
treaty signed by the President and
ratified by the Senate, decisions
of the United Nations have already
been applied to cases in our
courts with the fun weight of the
law!
One of the committees of the
United Nations which has con
cerned itself with questions tre
mendously important to the Unit
ed States is the special committee
on the draft convention on free
dom of information. As the Work
of this committee is studied, it is
clear that its interest is not in
freedom of information but in the
right of governments to limit and
suppress information and for the
harrassment of reporters. This is
done under the Aesopian word,
•responsibility.’
Carroll Binder, of The Min
neapolis “Tribune,” the American
representative on this committee,
has been waging a losing fight
trying to educate some of the
Europeans about freedom of the
press, as practiced in the United
States, where the Imperfections of
man are recopised and often as
sumed to be natural And there
fore unpuniahble.
In those other countries, the
theory is that the "great mind”
alone can- determine what the
people ought to know and that

“These governments ere engaged
in a terrifying experiment to con
dition the minds of hundreds of
millions of persons in an attempt
to make them respond automati
cally to the commands of their
rulers. In their hands information
has been transformed freon a
means of enlightenment and un
derstanding into a political wea
pon taking any form or shape re
quired by the situation. It has
become a knife to assassinate repu
- tattoos, a drug to dun the senses,
or a poison to Instill suspicion and
fear.
“Os course, when they have
sought support for their view in
the United Nations, they have
been careful to present it in the
i moot disarming disguise. They
have maintained that to promote
friendly international relations it
• is first necessary to define what
f information is and then to sup
- press the dissemination of any
’ thing which does not conform' to
1 the definition..."
! What these countries seek to do
t in the United States is to make
; the newspapers and the Journ*-
, lists "responsible.” They do not
: recognize that the laws of liebel
are sufficient; they demand that,
by administrative procedure, a
! government shall be enabled to
: take action against a newspaper
i or a reporter who is not “respon
-1 siWe." By responsibility, they
mean that no reporter should write
r nor Should a newspaper print any
thing that annoys the politicians
of any country. Binder says:
“...This convention was never,
as I understand it, intended to
deal primarily or ev en directly
with the work of journalists. I
have understood its ihtent to be
the promotion and protection of {
everyone’s right to freedom of in- 1
: formation. To distort it into a
punitive measure directed aS
Journalists would certainly be a
i mockery of everything the United
States has attempted to do in
this field. We must realise that
. undesirable checks placed on
journalists would apply equally to
artists and teachers, to lawyers
and politicians—and In the last
i analysis to people like ourselves
drawn from every walk of life.
; 1 Even if ttje grievances against
i some journalists and newspapers
■ | are assumed to be real, this is
I! certhinly too high a price to pay
' to settle a few scores!”
The State Department has put

peans wh oseek to suppress free

’ world by means of the United Na
; tions. Tjpe American position Is;

snarling at our Congressmen for
! being lazy. To date they have ln
. troduoed 6,466 bills, including
' some lulus, which have used up
a medium-sized forest of pulpwood
I in the printing. Six hundred and
thirty-one four-legged beavers
. couldn’t possibly have chopped
, down so many trees in so short a
. time.
i Most of these bills, of course,
I never have become law, but I .
. claim that’s because the states
• men have been so busy writing!
■ bills they haven’t had enough time
. to argue about ’em.
Os all these bills, I guess, my
, favorite is H. R. 1613, which is
described officially: “Vodka, trans
ferred in bond By tope Hne.” The
i Congressmen actually passed this
: one (it’s now Public Law Number
73) and somehow K brings up vl
i slons of distillers in tall fur hats,
1 rushing vodka to the peasants a

l lines, like gasoline. You’d think
> we’d developed a whopping taste
' for the tipple of the Soviets.
Turns out to be not quite so
• exciting a story. All these years
i our vodka makers have had to pay
- A tax if they tried to run their
i white mule in a pipe from the dis- i
tillery down to the warehouse in
. the next block. This law relieves
> them of this inequity. Similar bills
’ take care of the same kind of pipe
I lines for whisky and beer.
The House, being a good ckai
i bigger than the Senate, has in
troduced the most bills. They’re
coming in so fast that the clerks
can’t keep up with them; they

i information can not be the sub
' Ject of compromise..."
i The United Nations is, however,
) a complex and enormous organ: t
i ration in which compromises must
- be found among 60 nations. Things
• happen there and the public finds
i itself faced by a condition from
> which there is no immediate wlth
’ drawal.
It is therefore essential that the
; American position be strengthened
to say not that "freedom of infor
mation can not be the subject of
: compromise,” but we should say
that the freedoms of the Ameri
can people are not subject to
i-discussion.

"me MB number 4,748 which I be
lieve is Ehe’ absolute latest. It
would sock a *10,00(1'-fine on any
public official who ims. public
now number something under 2,-
000.
Some of the other new bills, I
think, also are interesting and,
to somebody, maybe even impor
tant. Rep. Wilson D. Gillette, the
Republican from Towanda, Pa
wants a law providing far three
cent stamps bearing the picture of
the first steam locomotive used in
the western Hemisphere.
This was the Stourbridge Lios,
which chugged down the rails in
Pennsylvania on August 8, 1830.
It develops further that Caddo
Parrish, La., donated to Uncle
Samuel in 1930 38 acres of good
land far research in development
.of peca ntrees. Uncle never got
around to making much use of it.
! Caddo Parish wants this acreage
back. Rep. Overton Brooks, Demo
crat of Shreveport, has written a
bill ordering the government to
hand back that pecan grove.
One bill, which somehow escap
ed me in its zigzag passage into
law, would see mto be important
to us motorists. It says that a. fel
low who buys gasoline for his se
dan can deduct the state tax on
same from his Federal Income tax.
This could result in a good deal
of bookkeeping, but 50 cents (more
or less) deducted on every 10
gallons ought to run into a pret
ty penny at the end of the year.
Some state taxes on gasoline
have been deductible all along, but
those that were levied on the
i wholesalers and passed along to
I us autolsts weren’t. The bill takes
care of these latter and, of all the
thousands of laws In the making,
it seems to be the only one that
gives us taxpayers a break. I’m
grateful.-
One other bill pleases me. too.
It hasn’t become law yet, but It’s
In conference and any day now
anybody who palms off a rabbit
