WORTHWHILE MOVES
WITH FEDERAL FUNDS
In announcing plans for distribu
tion of the huge sums of relief money
during the next few months two
noticeable and npplaudable regula
tions are set out, namely:
To enforce work upon those who
sue competent to earn their owl- liv
ing, and not to respect race, creed
or co! r.
Boiled down the first rules mean
simply those people of this or
any ether county physically unhandi
capped shall be required to earn
their living by the sweat of the brow,
and that such things as government
doles are a thing of the past. Too
often, here as in other places, people
nave been wont to “look to the wel
fare” for their sustenance when in
reality they should have been earning
their way. Now, under the new regu
lations governing distribution of the
government's bounty an hone si
day’s work shall be required for *
day’s pay and those who refuse tc
earn their way when the cry of “1
can’t get a job’’ is taken out of thf
way. vciil be allowed to feel the
pangs of hunger and cold. Speoia.
provisions for those unable to wort
have not been overlooked in the move
however, hut such cases MUbT be
unable to w >rk, regulations em
phatically set out.
The second regulation is no lest
applaudablo than the cue mentioncc
aborc—that of giving everybody c
::r show whether ke be white oi
black. Republican. Democrat or So
cialist. Catholic or Methodist.
President Roosevelt has ahead}
shown conclusively that the grea
task of bringing prosperity to the
land is far more in his mind righ
new than the strengthening of part)
lines, and the regulations governinj
the Civil Works Administration arc
further proof that he is doinj
everything in his power in as neai
right manner as he knows how. t(
help ALL the people.
Speaking before several hunurei
mayors and representatives of citie:
at Washington last week, Presided
Roosevelt stressed the nor-politica
policy of the Civil \\ orks Adminis
tration, saying—“I want to tell yoi
very, very simply that your nation
al government is not trying to gair
political advantage one way or the
other out of the needs of human be
ings for relief. We expect the same
spirit on the part of every governor
of every one of the 48 states and on
the part of every mayor and every
county commissioner and of every
relief agent. 1 would like to have the
general rule adopted—that no person
connected with the administration of
this $400,000,000 will in any single
case in any political subdivision of
the United States ask whether a per
son needing relief or work is a Re
publican, Democrat, Socialist or any
thing else."
So with loafing and politics both
taboo, there is no reason in the
world why the program won’t go
over in a big way.
Things getting drier week by week
—first a dry election, then a dry
dust storm, and next a bunch of dry
forest fires. Too dry, we’re ready to
stop.
Fell' ws in Asheville didn’t like
Bob Reynolds’ appointment of an
Asheville man for the U. S. Marshal
ship so he went over to Charlotte and
“got his man." Now the office is be
ing moved to the Queen City and
the same Asheville fellows are mad
der’n ever.
Organized labor’s chief organ in
Western North Carolina, the Ashe
ville Advocate, seems to have back
tracked, and in all probabilty will
next have a back-scat insofar as sup
port of majority of its present read
ers is concerned.
Wet press of the state seem more
or less elated at a news story (not
necessarily a true story) to the ef
fect that hoodlums and gangsters
are already in the state spying out
the land for their nefarious work.
Chicago papers, tell it differently,
they maintaining that no “bottled in
b- nd” can supplant the world-famed
“mountain dew.” As we see it,
neither is anything worth tooting
about.

GOOD ADVICE FROM
A GOOD PREACHER
When the Rev. R. L. Alexander
left Tuesday for a few days rest
before taking up his work in Lum
berton he left a void in the communi
ty, a place that has been occupied
for nearly five years by a Christian
gentleman in. every respect.
Before leaving he spoke from his
heart in his last sermon Sunday,
morning at the Presbyterian church:
what could be appropriately termed
in street lingo “a real mouthful” |
when he urged people of this com- j
munity to put away some of the “lit-,
tie things” that are retarding peace, j
j neighborliness and friendship. He cal-.
| led Brevard’s need the “milk of human
kindness” and urged his hearers to
use this all-powerful stimulant in
their dealings with their fellowmen;
a little more forgiveness; a little
j more consideration; a little more
1 kindness; a little less bickering over
nivia! affairs, and lot more of the
honest endeavor in every man’s
heart to do the right thing by those
about him.
1 It was a good sermon, a fitting
sermon, and one that, we’re sorry to
say, was very applicable.
Who’s afraid of the Russian Wolf
as long ns he has both his fore paws
in front and both of ’em full of buy
ing power?
Too late to second the nomination
of Duke for the Rose Bowl game,
but we third it. anyway. Fourteen
straight games after they play State
on Saturday.
A fine bunch spare ribs from Mark
Bagwell, sausage from William E.
Brecst*. taters from V. II. Galloway,
pumpkin pie from Mrs. Sid Bar
nett, quail from Doc Galloway,, .ye
scribe is faring fine, thank you, but
would not be adverse to u turkey or
possum for Thanksgiving.
: Methodist minister from Winston
Salem got a “public reprimand” from
Bishop Mouzon for talking about
one of his fellow-workers. Hope the
Bishop doesn't try “reprimanding”
nil the folks here that talk about
somebody when he makes his next
♦ rip to Brevard—if he does what a
mass meeting that will be.
LET'S KEEP ’EM GUESSING!
Editor Transylvania Times:
Seme of the comments made on
North Carolina’s action in the re
peal include these statements:” Af
: tor all, the thing which the recent
, political history of this State re
veals most dearly is that North
Carolina is not a state the action
' of which can easily and safely be
for: cast". “of late, people
'of North Carolina have changed their
votirg attitude on comparatively
, short notice.”
This is as it should be. The same
'criticism is made of our great pres
ident. Query: What will he attempt
I next *o bring about national re
covery? All progression demands
change against dead and unsuccess
ful experiments. “Wise men change;
fools, never.”
Yes; let the moral forces of this
state keep steadily in mind and
heart the one objective: The Best
For North Carolina—whatever that
entails.

OWEN IS PROUD OF
VOTE OF HOME FOLK
Dear Editor:
Will you allow me a little space
in The Times in which to express
my joy at the results of the “Re
peal” election in our state? I am
specially glad of the results in Tran
sylvania. This is my native county.
It will always l>e MY county. So
when you roll up such a victory for
what I am so confident is right it
naturally gratifies me.
I am as sure now as I have ever
been that beverage liquor is in
capable of satisfactory regulation.
It still injures every one it touches.
It is. still the enemy of all good and
the friend and promoter of every
evil. Therefore the only satisfactory
way to deal with it is the may sensi
ble people deal with rattle snakes
and mad dogs. You can just as well
hope to regulate a rattlesnake and
leave him h:s fangs and his liberty
as to hope to regulate liquor while
it is in the teach of men of depraved
appetites. Liquor friends are of two
classes,—those who crave the drink
and those who crave the money they
can get out of liquor. The one is
to be pitied and condemned; the
other despised and crashed.
I was very sorry that my friend
Eck Sims found it in his heart to
take the side of the “wets” as did
wreakingly wet “Bob” Reynolds 1
knew Eck better when he was a very
small boy than I have since he be
;came a man. I hope that now as
i the people in Transylvania have ex
1 pressed themselves so impressively
' against legalized liquor that he will
fail into line and help the county
and the state to put out of existence
every drop of illegal liquor. It !<
, necessary now fer every good citi
' nen, whether man cr woman or boy
: or girl tc do everything in his powei
to enforce every law against liquor
I call on every one who would b;
regarded as a good citizen to do tw:
things from this hour to that of hi:
'.death; First; Never touch any kirn
of intoxicating drink as r bevevage
whether it be beer, wine, whiskey 01
brandy cr what not. It does no bod;
any good whatever. It may lead any
ion: to u drunkard’s grave and i
drunkard’s hell. If you can drink s
and not get drunk your example (i
i you are worth a sneeze) will ka
some one else to drunkenness em
ruin.
Second: Let each one do his rm
duty in executing the law agains
all who try to make money out o
the debauchery and ruin of thei
fell own i er. The man who makes an
sells liquor for money is no bette
than the one who holds up' his fel
; low man on the public highway am
i robs him at the muzzle of a gun foi
i money. Morally one is as guilty a
'the other. It is the bounden duty o
! every self respecting citizen to do al
■ he can to see to it that such met
and women arc not allowed theij
freedom to go on with such bus!
ness. The man who walks around th
-treets and talks about knowiof
when there are boot-loggers and doe:
not take steps immediately to haw
them arrested and punished is worth:
of Thto contempt and loathing of ev
. ry decent citizen He is either ai
unworthy citizen, a spineless cowarc
or,a wilful prevaricator, or all thes<
things combined. There is a triph
partnership in this nefarious, soul
destroying business. It consists o:
the maker and seller of liquor. thos<
who buy and drink the stuff anc
those who could and do not enforce
the law against them. They are al
1 equally guilty before God and wu
ultimately receive the same punish
ment. They are r.ll equally deserving
of the contempt and scorn ol all
good people. It is time they be made
i to understand this,
1 There is one other matter t«
! which I wish to refer. It is this.
We have in Transylvania a real
poet. On every legitimate occasion
this fact comes^o light. I wonder It
we could not find some way to en
i courage him to bring to light in
permanent form some of his poetry.
I think, with his mature scholar
ship and evident poetic gift some
one ought to persuade him to aband
on his timidity and bless the world
oud honor Transylvania with this
gift. You know him. Call him to
light.
Our college is moving on well.
How 1 am enjoying teaching these
fine young men and women.
Very respectfully.

Last Friday morning, down at Shel-j
by, I met two real wets, they werei
so wet they were running on both!
sides of the street almost at the
tame time as the result of meeting
them, they went to a hospital for re
pairs while the two automobiles
were on their way to a garage for)
repairs. I was lucky to get only one
sprained knee. However it might have
been one or even three lives snuffed
out just because a man wanted tc
drive his car while drunk.. Drunk
en drivers have increased recently
on our public highways, something
must be done about this new or in
creased menace on our highways.
Let me urge every Woodmen in
' Western North Carolina that possi
bly can, go to Hickory Saturday N>
vember the 25th, and take in all
the big features.
Menv tnanks to Mr. and Mr;;.
C. P. Goforth for their kind
ness to me after my car was wreck
ed last week. Mr. Goforth came ov
er to Shelby and carried me to a
physician for (examination, then
home with him where they applicc
hot packs tc my injured leg for five
hours. Next morning they carnet
me to Hickoiy to meet my appoint

FARM DEBTS BEING
TAKEN CARE OF
_
In response to the request of Gov
ernor Henry Morgenthau, Jr., of the
Farm Credit Administration in
Washington, many State Governors
are now appointing Farm Debt Con
ciliation committees.
These Committees wiH seek to
bring about voluntary compromises
between creditors and debtors in
cases of excessive indebtedness
through local countv committees. The
committees are to be officially ap
pointed by the state governor, but
are to have no legal force to com
pel acceptance of any compromises
of indebtedness. Suggestions are be
ing prepared for the guidance of
both the State anti local committees
which will need to be adopted to the
condiiions within the State.
Any debtor or creditor may pres
ent his case before a local commit1
tee, when appointed, which shall
seek to effect a friendly settlement
of the debt problem. It is expected
that plans will be agreed to in many
instances where thp indebtedness
can bo satisfied through loans secur
ed through the Federal land bank,
and or the Land Bank Commissioner,
or both.
Already Governors o f fifteen
states have indicated their intentioni
of appointing such committees. 'Jm
