General Daugherty tonight ren
dered an accounting of his stew
ardship at Washington, defended
his course in the Chicago Injunc
tion pioccodlngs and in the prose
cution of war frauds, and declared
that despite "accusation and cal
umny," the Department ot Justice
would proceed to perform its du
ties as ft sees them under the
examination.
In the strike emergency, the at
torney general said, the federal
government used the injunction
the least drastic means at hand
for rescuing the country from "the
grip of civil war." He ascribed
ime of the blame to "the radical
ism and character of prominent
labor leaders and ' some of it to
"hard bolted" railway executives.

under the circumstances "should
be Impeached."

The good roads meeting held at
.Mount Airy today was the biggest
thing of its kind ever staged In
the Granite City, the purpose of
the Catherine belmr to boost a
movement looking to the building
of a modern highway from lillls

north of Mount Airy. Governor
Trinkle standing pn the Virginia
side, and Governor Morrison, the
North Carolina side, shook hands
across the line. This part of the
program produced rounds of ap
plause from the enthusiastic
crowd. A motion picture was
taken of the acene.
Returning to Mount Airy, the
two Gdvernors were entertained at
dinner at a local hotel. At 1!
o'clock Governors Trinkle and
Morrison made addresses at th'
town auditorium and were heard
by a packed house. The merch
ants closed their stores for the oc
casion. .
The two Chief Executives advo
cated the building of the proposed
link in the highway which would
give Virginia a Southern outlet
and furnish a route for North Car
olina to West Virginia. Governor
Trinkle declared that Just as soon
as money waa available this route
would receive attention. He ititi
mated that a special session of the
Virginia Legislature may be call
ed to work out good roads legisla
tion for his Bute.
Governor Trinkle also let It be
known that he was opposed to ap
ply tax for the building of ro3d
roads, but that he favored a gaso

Mrs. Mae Woodall, who has had
extensive experience in lyceum and

Since The Citizen' Radiophone

few week ago the demand for
radio concerts has become so great
among tha radio fans In Western
North Carolina that It has been
necessary to engage some one to
arrange all the programs and give
all of their time to the many de
tails incidental to procuring and
presenting of varied and entertain
ing programs. Asheville musi

oontinue to aaslst in the effort to
establish the supremacy of Ashe
ville talent amonr the radio fans
whose. ranks are multiplying by
Brest leaps ana oounas and Mrs.
Woodall hopes to have musicians

programs for WFAJ to aim or

Mrs. Woodall has followed music
