I 'in less than 40 minutes after the call for help was Received, five Dunn doctors, eight local nurses and three drivers were on the scene rendering aid to "ttwh-injured. Dunn’s medical group was the first to arrive at the scene of disaster ana they stayed on the job as long as iJaey. were neededfl We’ve often wondered what would happen if such a disaster came to Dunn—for instance, ii one of those should collide with some heavy vehicle at b*e Broad Street crossing. \l After the performance of the medical group Sunday -morning, we feel much better. We know that any disaster would be met. “Itlwas an inspiring sight to see the doctors and the nurses waaing through mud, hopping over ' wire fcaces and ocher obstacles to get to the scene of the ae&d^t—without one single thought about their own welfare. Offering his praise as resident physician for the Coast Line, Dr.- Corbett asserted: “I was certainly proud es the manner in which the members of my profession Responded in time of emergency. It made me mighty proud;’,’ The Daily Record, too is proud of this magnificent performance of duty, and we know that every citizen of £Ee town is equally as proud. We congratulate and commend every single one of fiiosg pho answered the call.

C. g MW YBUfflT JSWiyi These Days THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S LISTS The decision of the Supreme Court, in the cases involving the joint Anti-Fascist Refugee Com mittee, National Council of Amer ican-Soviet Friendship, Inc., In ternational Workers Order, Inc., is extremely important. These organ izations sought their deletion from the Attorney General’s list of sub versive organizations. Lower courts had upheld the Attorney General; the Supreme Court held that these organizations had a right to sue for such deletion. Mr. Justice Burton, who gave the majority opinion, said: “ To defend sue ha designa tion of them, on the basis of the complaints alone, is an assertion of presidential authority to so desig nate an organization at the option of the Attorney General without re liance upon either disclosed or un disclosed facts supplying a reason able basis for the determination. It it that, and only that outer limit of the authority of the Attorney General that is now before us.” Further, he said: “.. . The organizations to be des ignated on that list are not limited to those having federal employees in their memberships. They may even exclude such employees from membership. Accordingly, the im pact of the Attorney General’s list is by no means limited to persons who are subject to the employees loyalty program.” The Supreme Court is only sup posed to deal with what has been placed before it and therefore, if no one called the attention of the learned brethren to the fact of life, they are not expected to know any thing about them. For instance, Hede Massing! Luois Budenz, Whit taker Chambers and others testi fied under oath that they were part of oommunist apparatuses out side the government, under the con trol of Soviet Russia, which were actually engaged in efforts to infil trate our government, in which, thejr succeeded in specific casei? W There is ample evidence of this kind of activity in the files of tfie FBI, the House Committee on Un- American Activities, and ow the McCarran Committee to establish the validity of the Attorney Gen eral’s list. What the Supreme Court has actually done is to open the door for each of these organiza tions—there are several hundred — to go into court to force a hearing on whether their names should or should not be on the list. Maybe that is the only just way to do it. Justice Burton says; "... The acts of the Attorney General and the Loyalty Review Board, purporting to be taken by them under authority of the exec utive order, have seriously and ir reparably impaired, and will con tinue to so impair, the reputation of the organization and the moral support and good will of the Amer ican people necessary for the con j tinuance of its charitable activit- ies ... ’’ That is precisely what the list is designed to do. In the case of one of these organizations, the Inter national Workers drder, Inc., I nave before me the brief prepar ed by Paul W. Williams, special counsel for the insurance depart ment of the State of New York,, which successfully sought to put this organization out of the insur ance business. The brief shows: “The fWO operates througn a system or friore tnan 1,600 lodges uiruughout the United States. These lodges fall into sixteen nationality societies, which are administrative subdivisions of the IWO, having no separate' corporate existence. In many cases much of the business of tnese societies is transacted in tne language of the nationality group in question.

This is an easier way to do it than was the case back in 1927, when the boyish Charles Lindbergh electrified the world by his non-stop to Le Bourget.

There la » brand of engine ail that will in crease your gasoline mileage by eight per cent. An overdrive will boost it 20 percent. An air inject or on the carburetor will give up to 40 per cent more miles. A special brand of gasoline will go six per cent farther. Some trick goo that you pour into the gas will make It last 12 per cent more miles per gallon. A special head on the engine will turn up 15 per cent better mileage. I know all this is true because I have been Studying the ads in. the magazines. So what I am planning to do is equip my old sedan with these widgets, pour in one final tank of gasoline..and wean It. From now on I’ll ride free. Can’t miss. Just add up those per centages. They total 100, or per petual motion. Fact is, there’s a variety of spark plugs on sale that make each gallon of gas last 10 per cent longer. These I shall not buy, because: after I’d driven a while my gas tank would start to overflow and I’d be a fire hzard. This research into methods of economical motoring I undertook after reading an advertisement about the horrendous things In innards of my car happen con stantly. There’s an engine there, all right, but it spends mo6t of its time distilling acid to eat holes in itsel* I’ve got to get a special oil to combat this acidity because, as the ad pointed out: "It’s not friction, but acid action that causes 90 per cent of engine wear!” I was convinced until I'd leafed through 19 pages of the same magazine, where another oil com pany published another eye-opener. This advertisement said: “Don’t ever forget it’s friction that wears ous motors.” Gad. , , What I’d like Is an oil that simply is greasy, but I suppose that’s ask ing a tfood deal. Anyhow, I may not’ even have a sedan in my garage it may already have at omized itself. _ This Is because of the amazing hew engines the ad vertising writers have invented. I (doubt, myself, that they’re en tirely practical. One brand of car now runs on thunderbolts, one on fireballs, an other rockets, a fourth on hornets, and a fifth on gold comets. Still another is Jet-powered, while a British import gets its go from a mysteridus something known as an XK-120, which gives it a cruis i ting speed of more- than 100 miles an hour. In my youth there was a gear box that transmitted the power from the engines to the wheels. This Is no more. The power now proceeds through senational new and improved ultramatics, mer comatics, hydramatics, electroma tlcs, touchomatics, power glides, and oriflows. Oops. Correction: Those oriflows are shock absorbers; what I meant was dynaflows. Somebody once said there’d al ways be an advertising man. Tm ■ not so sure of this. In self-defense I may have to run him down.

Reynold*, in the congressional campaign in the twelfth district assures a lively con test there. Previously announced as a candidate is Richard Queen of Waynesvllle, formerly on the sec retarial stafsf of Senators J. M. Broughton and Frank P. Graham. Expected' to get into the race Is Frank Parker, Asheville lawyer and several times member of the State Senate. Buncombe may have an other candidate or two and it is hardly likely that the rest of the district will be content to let Bun combe and Haywood have a clear field, in view of the local and dis trict wide factional lines iq the Democratic party. The twelfth Is the only district where a contest is certain among new men. Con gressman Monroe Redden some months ago let it be known he would not seek re-election. DOUGHTON Most observers expect the veteran Robert L. Doughton to stay on the Job from ihe ninth district. II he runs again there will be no opposition 1 in the primary; if he doesn’t there may be » dozen candidates. The 88- year-old Doughton has been In Con gress forty years and many other I citizens of his district who cher ished congressional ambitions have grown old waltirig for him to quit. Others, tom since he went to Con gress, are now casting ccßetous eyes on his seat. It is almost unani mously conceded that nobody can give the ’’old man” serious trouble until he voluntarily retires. He has threatened to do that several times. Some years ago he almost ran for governor, and other times he in timated he wanted to retire to pri vate life. Suggestion tnat he may not seek re-election next year are discounted in view of the past rec . ord. OTHERS Developments in the twelfth have stirred up soma in terest in other districts, and the rumor mills are grinding out mate rial about prospective contests in several places. In fact, there seems right now as much concern over oengressmen as over governor or any other State office. ENTRENCHED Tar Heel Con gressmen are hard to displace once they get in office and want to stay. Only two of the present delegation : won their seats originally OaftePHn cumbents. Graham Barden ousted Charles L. Abernathy for the third district post in 1934; and Monroe Redden defeated the '.eteran Zebu lon Weaver in the twelfth district in 1946. All of the others—Herbert Bonner in the first, John H." Ken in the second, Harold Cooley in the fourth, Thurmond Chatham in the fifth, Carl Durham in the sixth, i Ertel Carlyle In the seventh, ; Charles B. Deane In the eighth, Hamilton Jones in the tenth and Woodrow Jones in the eleventh, filled vacancies occasioned by death i or retirement of their predecessors. Robert L. Doughton in the ninth was nominated by convention years before the primary system was in augurated. All of the present mem bers have faced opposition at aomer time or another during his finr*' term—but in every Instance the incumbents held their own against attempts to oust them. That rec ord does not land encouragement to opposition candidates, but it shows that a sitting Congress man can be ousted. RUMORS Capitol Square hears that Hamilton Jones may have to defend his seat against more pow erful opposition than he has en-y-. countered before. It is reporteefi'' that pressure is being brought up on Robert Lassiter, Jr., of Charlotte to get into the race for Congress. That Involves several factors direct lyaifecting two congressional dis tricts and the State at large. Las siter has served two terms as rep resentative of Mecklenburg County in the general assembly surd has been promoted for speakership of the 1953 house. Eugene Bost, who has represented Cabarrus county in.r the legislature since 1937, including eight regular and two special ses sions, is recognized as tne leading prospect tor speaker next time, aosc is one of tne ouxcu or more residents of tne mntn district who have toyed with tag iaea of suc ceeding Bob Doughton in congress. Bo there we several “its” to con sider: If LKiugnton nrmiy announ ces retirement and Bost decides to run lor congress, Lassiter is * re garded as next in s line for the event he would not enter the rac for Congress in his district. If bost decides to come back to tne legis lature And try for tne-speaxersmp Lassiter might give thougn to the ternn district berth in tne national house oi representatives. PROSPECTIVE— one In quiring rumors that (Alton Lennon of Wilmington, several times mem ber of the state senate, may run against Ertei Carlyle In the Beven-A» til district, and that Hugh HorlonV of Williams ton, long time legislat or on state level, is a lakeiy op ponent for Herbert Bonner In the. fihst. These two districts present, unusual situations. Wilmington as the largest city and the recognized commercial-industrial center of the southeastern section of the state, has long coveted the congressman for that district. It has been about forty years since a member of eon- _ gross had ftk home: address inli Wilmington, in the first district if has been almost as long since the congressman used aq address other thati Washington—the official ad dress being Washington, D.
