COSLMOX SENSE BREAKING OJJT.
Twenty years ago, or such a matter,
the efforts of city physicians to hold
in check an outbreak of measles would
hardly have been thought of. Com
mon custom made it., popular then for
the little fellows to have the malady.
Parental restrictions were not thrown
around them to guard against contact
with cases of measles. In fact, the
popular theory was that if we ure going
to have measles at all, which' the in
fant race seems to have been .foreor
dained to, then, why not go along and
have it. and get through with" the Job?
It's easier on the children than it would
be on the grownups. That was the
logic of a few years ago: consequently,
when th measles came around, they
were madfe welcome and shown espe
cial consideration and courtesy by the
heads of the homes. In fact, measles
was a distinguished guest of honor in
the homes.
; Modern medical learning, however,
has come around to the saner view that
it is not absolutely necessary ever to
have measles and that it is a positively
dangerous disease for the children to
be meddling with. City physicians,
therefore, lock upon an outbreak of
measles with pretty much the same
alarm that they would regard many
another outbreak for which there is a
much wider popular fear. They figure
that measles is not so bad of itself,
perhaps, but that it is the disease
through which a host of other more
serious troubles enter into the human
body, that weak eyes and abscessed ears
and deafness and pneumonia are all
standing around the weakened body of
the little child, ready to pounce upon
it so soon as the measles has left it in
proper depletion to take charge.
..That's the learning of modern medi
cine, the simple learning that preven
tion is the better part of medical valor
and that if a child can be kept from
having measles- by quarantine, then it
is not only foolish and expensive, but it
is positively criminal tQ subject it to
the attendant dangers.
'We wonder sometimes what a multi
tude of little babies might have been
saved in the generations ago if medi
cine then had been half go sensible as.
medicine is today.
- WILSON AND "THE PICTURE."
Writing to this newspaper, Robert T.
Small says that "it would seem that
after he (President Wilson) signs bills
in the marble room of Aie senate on in
auguration day, he will fade completely
out of the picture." " '
He shall, indeed, so far as the phy
sical picture is concerned. Whatever
shall be done . during the next four
years in an administrative, government
x al way in Washington will bear upon
. it the image and superscription, of War
ren G. Harding. He will' take up
all the picture himself, but there is
another picture from which Woodrow
Wilson will -never fade away.
So long as there remains in the heart
of humanity the common instincts of
appreciation for public service eo long
as the memory of the American people
y is in its place, Woodrow Wilson will
remain the central figure of contem
poraneous , history. . " " " . '.
We eke celebrating the birthday of
Washington though Washington went
to. dust more than a century ago.
And a century .from now, or within
far less time than that,' the nation will
be holding, in grateful recollection the;
birthday of Wilson whose distinctive
service for humanity and for the world
entitles him to a place in history no less
. secure than that of ' "The Father qf
His Country." - . ...'
Thomas Jefferson, the founder of
democracy, i3 regarded by this genera
tion as among the immortals, but in
another generation, when our children
and children's children are calling to
mind the great achievements of. Jeffer.
sob, the name of .Wilson will be herald
ed,, too, as the champion of the liberties
of 'the world.
There is a picture, sustained by the
instinctive thing in the souls of men
which moves one to appreciation, fast
ened immovably in the galleries' of im
agination, there is this other picture of
Woodrow Wilson that will remain un
dimmed and deathless so ' long as the
stars shall shine. .
EDUCATIONAL FORCES ARRAYED,
The educational forces of the Stale
are swooping down upon the Legisla
ture to get through, during the final
scenes of the general assembly, a
measure by which the .state institutions
may surge forward to greater achieve
ments. The zeal and vision which' these msn
and women are displaying .are com.
mendable. Undoubtedly, the three ma
jor educational ' institutions, the '' "Uni
yersity, State A; & IS. and the Greens
boro College, for Women are bing
greatly hindered" in plans of. develop.,
ment by reason of financial strin
gency. ;, '-. ' .
There is certainly no sizeable oppo
sition in the State to any program of
financial help through the Legislature
.that will enable , these respective insti
tutions to throw off their hobbles -ml
move forward in accord with like in
stitution's elsewhere.
v There -is, however, very evident -opposition
to a program that will have
no regard for the capacity of the peo
ple to face increasing taxation and .to
reach down in their pockets and fi
nance even these meritorious projects
as they may seem to demand.
This - opposition may , be. confined
largely to the rural regions of the
State. It is, hi fact. In the cities, ther.3
is far less antagonism, in proportion,
to this movement than in the rural
communities, for the obvious reason
tnait the pinch is being' felt more
acutely in - the country than in tin
cities. .-.' - .... - '
It is the farmers of the State who
have suffered the greatest burden of
financial losses during the period of
deflation and in the face of reduce I
incomes, confronting a future, tag.
that is very uncertain, forced to pay
increased taxes on their property s,nd
hV the midst pf a material debacla
that In some respects eclipses any
that has faced them in a .generation,
they are reticent tp bound forward
with the same zeal and fervor that
are displayed ! in the cities.
Let us be understood as being. in ac
cord with a program of educational ex
pansion in the State. While we are
discussing this great need, we ought
also to bear in mind the needs that
are down in the commoner levels, tha
great demand for school facilities and J
oilvantows in the oniintips fiir 1
r ' ' 1
high schools, the great ' tragic states?
tics of illiteracy that are si shame upon
the State these all deserve to have a
place of concern in our minds.
The whol,e educational system ouut
to be established uniformly, the foun
dations .Along .with the superstructure,
the common schools along with th
higher-institutions; and to unravel tin
sort of a system that the State de
serves will take both time and abun
dant money.
The question, therefore, is this; shall
we all at one time, witn a single
bound, strive to meet the pressing re
quirements of .the higher institutions
or Should we attempt to give then
what ?hey need in, broken doses, more
in keeping with the way the people
of the State are able to face the proia
osition? y - . '
That "is the onry question that need
concern the Legislature. The mind of
the people is pretty well made up that
something should be done that will
take away the obstacles from the path
of these institutions.
The mi;d of the people, however, is
not established in affirmation or thT
idea that it is Wise, expedient and eco
nomical to go the whole distance right
at this unfortunate time.
HOOVER.
Mr. Harding would like to have Mr.
Hoyer in the cabinet for the obvious
reason that he is about the only man
selected or so far available who has an
international reputation, unless, for
sooth, it may be Mr. Hughes. But Mr.
Penrose, the boss behind the curtains,'
says in great astonishment, "Why, he's
not even a republican!'',- and of course,
if it come from Nazareth, it can't be
good, in the opinion of the Boss.
We don't know whether . Mr. Hoover
is a republican or not. In fact we don't
know that ho knows himself. There
was quite a flurry some months ago to
discover whether he was or not, and
there was so much excitement when
such an uncertainty developed about it
that the democrats though of putting
him in the field for President.
Mr. Hoover, however, evidently came
to the conclusion that it would be an
inopportune year for him to decide to
be a democrat and he chose rather to
let it be known that, to the best of his
knowledge, he was not quite a. demo
crat. -
Neither he is a republican of either
the Harding or the Penrose type but
he is at least passable in th mind of
the President-elect especially when he
needs. tON.s.urround himself with at' least
one ."giant intellect'' that he not con
fined by provincialism, Mr, Hoover ' is
such an one", better known in Europe
than he is in America. His fine wbrfe.
of the last few years has largely been
concentrated upon Europe and; it has
been of such. a character that, a conti
nent was singularly Impressed with him,
his earnestness, his heartfulnessr his
efficiency. If Mr. Hoover, however, will
kindly let it be known to which party
he -belongs, possibly his own country
could come into similar appreciation of
his very valuable usefulness. - '
BANKERS AND FARMERS.
Are the bankers of the South going
to lend m6ney to the farmers with
which to make a new crop this spring?
it .seems that they are not unless cer
tain conditions are met. These condi
tions center largely around the issue
of acreage reduction, Mr. John HI. Mtty
ler, Jr., of Richmond recently said that
his own bank proposed to help such
farmers a$ would help themselves and
their own Southern country be reduc
ing their ootton aereage and planting
more feed and food erops. He further
said, as he was quoted to us. that 'he
-would advise; other banks with which
his own institution had .connections? to
adopt the same policy. ' -v
There are some indications that the
bankers are not disposed to put out
much, money to farmers -who liave all
of last year's crop an4 who sre x
pecting to plant just as much cotton
sereae as' tbf y Planted last y$ar.
In sdme respects, this is a very wise
move on the part of the bankers and a
bery beneficial move for the farmers
themselves. The cotton which they hav
on hands is not worth what it took to
make it. It never will be unless the
South .makes up its mind that it viU
cut jts cotton acreage, not merely in
hit-and-nuss fashion, 10 per cent or 15
or 20 or 25, but CUT ITTO THE
QUICK. That's the only way the sit
uation Kill, be improved. The cotton
acreage roust be halved if the present
holdings of the cotton now in the hands
pf the farmers; is very to pay: for It
self. - . -
Obviously, therefore, unless they do,
the banker will not feel that lie is jUSr
tified, either as A banking official wijh
obligations to his directors and stock
holders, or, as a friend of the farmers
and 'nis fellow-citizens,' to proceed to
lend money -freely to -the- planter- who
proposes to go right back into the fields
and help make another bumper crop. -
CENSORSHIP OF MOVIES. v
Behind the movement to establish a
censorship of moving picture films in
this state is no 1 determination unduly
to hamper Or restrict the modern thea
ter production. If there was such a
spirit in this enterprise, w.e would re
gard it with disfavor.
What the people want who are behind
this enterprise is to make the pictures
what the ..best thought of the State will
demand. Naturally, a great deal will be
eliminated and in this process "of elimk
nation, the moving picture operators
Will be disadvantaged.
As we understand this industry, a
film starts on its journey from a central
distributing point and passes on down
the line, through the various states and
through the various 'communities in
those states, If, in the meantime, and
for instance, North Carolina should rule
put -a 'given picture that has been ex
hibited, elsewhare. that picture will have
to skip North Carolina and land in some
other state where it will jiot be prohib-
ited. " ;
. That sort of procedure will be conf us
Ing and expensive to the state theaters,
we confess, but it is only this sort of
procedure that will break up the prac
tise of offering salacious productions to
on., nnlvlirt whfthftP It llA the DUbliC f
T r- ' .. '
V'-tl, rnnn nn nt eniTia ntllOv. KTUTf
What the motion picture producers
ought to fix firmly in their minds is the
truth tfeat they have not been given an
industry that they can operate just to
suit themselves.
It is altogether too powerful an in-j
dustry for that to be the case, too, in-,
fluential, too potential in the making of
men and civilization and a safe society.
They must be held to some degree of
accountability therefore, for the ?ort of
influences they set surging through the
masses.
if their business needs correction, it
is perfectly proper for the state to of
fer that correction to the end that the
motion picture may properly become
what it has the power to become, the
greatest modern agency for the instruc
tion 'and;? development of the young
manhood nd w?omanhood of the land.
BOTH HOUSES IN
HURRY TO CLOSE1
q jKgQ (JVr TiUlG III UVQCr
to Clear Calendar But Lh
tie Progress Developed.
By JULE B. WARREN.
Staff Correspondent of The News.
Raleigh,' Feb. 24. Both houses of
the general assembly worked overtime
Wednesday in an effort to clear the
calendar of measures which are crowd
ing the dockets at the present time,
and Neither house managed to cut
down the pile a great deal. The
house spent the major portion of its
time discussing and passing the mi
nority report on the bill calling for
an election in Rockingham county on
the proposition of moving the court
house from Wentworth to Reidsvilla,
the minority report calling for the
election being 'finally adopted.
The senate " increased the salary of
the adjutant- general, giving him a
thousand dollars, , without abolishing
the office of state disbursing officer
which - pays the amount of the in?
crease proposed for the adjutant gen
eral. The amended law for hotel in
spection was passed without a great
deal of difficulty. The major portion
of the senate's time was taken up
with a discussion of the Clement bill
proposing the reduction of the time
from ten to five ye.ars as cause for
absolute divorce.
"The debate brought out all the con
flicting ideas of the senate on this
proposition, Some thought the bill
would- let down the-hars in North
Carolina and make this state a com.
petitor, of Reno in the divorce mill,
while others argued that the innocent
wemen who had been married to
worthless men should be furnished a
legal opportunity to get out Of their
bad bargain.
The senate ' worked until - nearly 2
o'clock .adjourning just in time for
its members to cross the hall to the
house chamber to hear the debate
between Ike Meekins and Tom Dixon
on the motion picture censorship.
Both houses were besieged with
petitions from farmers and others
asking for relief from the revaluation
act. All were referred with the under
standing that 'a bill, will be reported
out soon which will seek to accomplish
this relief. Likewise there were many
petitions and resolutions in both hous
es which called on the legislature to
adopt , the twenty million dollar pro
gram -for the higher educational insti
tutions. ' c
BARBERS SERVED
AN OYSTER SUPPER
The v Barbers' Union had a meeting
Wednesday night in the pdd Fellows,
hall over Yorke & Rogers store, with
an oyster supper as one of the fea
tures Of the evening. This was served
at 9 o'clock. Another feature was a
musical program, with quartettes, trioa
and other typea of vocal melody.
Mayor John M. Wilson, Marvin L.
Ritch, Dave Summerlin and P. E; Tuck,
er were among those who delivered
brief addresses. . The committee which
arranged the affair was composed of
M. A. Morton. A. R. Medlin and C, D.
Same. ' ' '
. The affair was a social event Intended'
to bring together members of the Bar
bers' Union and others who may be
come memoers later. , ,
Today I had an interview with Gw
tain Humbug Ovashue. He said "I'll
tell you of th.e tricks I learned while
with the bolsheviks. I was a man of
some renown while with The News at
Buzzard Town, and so uppn their in
stigation I .left our grand and glorious
nation and got off at some Russian sta
tion to send back home the situation,
And so lij teil you of the views I
sent back to The Buzzard News.
"Well,. J landed ..first in Got-De-Itcn,
The country there is far from rich.
Here one day at hal past six X first
ran on the bolsheviks. That afternoon
at half past five they started their
fensive drive. They were a mean .
t ensive crew. They even smelled of
fnsive, too. They furnished me a uni'
form that never would have kept me
warm, for when I sat down in the slcct.
found it did not haye a seat. Before,
nightfall with two tooth picks I un
earthed fourteen thousand ticks. At
last I got some cle-thef I wanted, ynd
my courage - stijl undaunted. I joined
a "squad of bolsheviks to find out all
about their tricks.
"Well, with hatred in our souls, we
made a charge against the Poles. The
Poles were brave, and battled well, but
finally could not stand our smell. Tlia
moment that we got in range we took
the town of Pppdle-Mange. Here tha
bolshevik! " ergw - ran into their Waterr
loo. Our quarters were in one hotel
and in the" night our awful smell
caused us .to be decimated. Sixt!?n
thousand suffocated. At dawn the
Poles with gas masks charged. Th-j
bclshevikl jumped and dodged. It dim
ply was an awful slaughter. Blood ran
all about like water. Rags and trash
were- all around. - Ten million ticks
crawled on the ground. The Polish
forces went stark mad. The sight was
sadrthe odor bad: General Hydro
phobia shoited, 'Comrades, we are hp
doubt routed!' Then with Colonel Gut?
terditch I made a dash for Got-pe-Itch,
I packed my shirts and old night gown
and caught the boat for ,,Buj;zard
Town!
"No piore corresponding stuff! Far
me this was indeed enough! I think,
though, as an aftermath, that if they a
take a decent bath either in some tubs
er bowls--the bolsheviks would rout
the poles. But with that smell among
each other it is no wonder that they
smother!"
Next wek ' Captain Qyashue has
promised me an interview in the Ral
eigh Hug House lobby, where hp-says
he'll tell the- hobby that the fierce
Dolacterdoos show for eating Kanga

German Officials Received

Eerlin," Feh." 23. Formality and
ceremony received a-number. of rather
rough, jolts during a tour of Germany
just completed by J 5 American farm
er boys who came to this country witn
a ship load of milch cows, given, to
Germany by farmers in the United
States. The young men have returned
to Berlin after a trip , of J6 days to
many off the principal cities of the
country, during whieh they - saw Ger
many and - her people' and ' enjoved
themselves ln their", owji- way. The
American are natives of Indiana, Kan
sas 'itnd Texas, and they 'brought to
this country the v unconventional at
mosphere of thejr prairies. : . '
Reception commftteesv which gather,
ed at. stations, expecting to-welcom a
frock-coated, silk-hatted : .flelegatiop,
were . astonished to see 'the :. breezy
Amtricaris swarm 'off their . special car
and, ignoring dignified burgomasters
and officials, - extend their .".': hands in
greeting to farmers,' shouting: y.:
"Ypu ' fellows. WorkJ ydiir hands re
calloused." ' '' ".-' . . ; " . ; ..
In:'some places" "there was : outspok
en astonishment! at the uncohvention
ai manner of the Americans and thei
disregard of the ' feelings of high' offi
cial's,; but; W, E; Schmidt, representa
tive : pf the German Red Cross, whu
accompanied the Americans, was. ai
ways at hand to explain matters.
The only .unpleasant incident bepur?
rgd at Roch'um. where ther Amencaus
were criticised, for speaking English.
"Why don't-VoU speak German?' a
man asked thf m. . "You are in Qev?
many and ' pot . America." -'
"We ppeak ..what. tve want to,", came
the quick rejoinder from a..Kanean.
and the matter, was abruptly dropped,
No Germans were permitted to" en
ter the Americans' car,, although afwr
the first few days all fear of antagon
ism vanished.
"Germany and the " United ptate3
are still technically ' at 7 war," a Ger
man official assigned to the party "said,
"and we didn't know how thin&s
would go, nut therew as nu occasion
for fear."
The Americans, . after being given!
their first sight of Germany, declare.4
they liked the country, but Peter An
dres of Elbing, Kas., summed up the
sentiments of the party by saying:
"There 'is t much misery here. There
are too many rich and too many poir.
But, then, it Seems the people must
be one or the other.-Kansas suits me.'!
The German Red Cross does not plan
to take other American parties on tours
of the country, Herr Schmidt said to
day. "Don't you like Americans?" he was
asked. " " : '
'Yes, but we haven't 'enough money,"
he replied. 'The American Dairy Csz
tle Company, which ' forwarded the
milch cows to Germany, . asked us to
do thi3 so that the boys could repit
on conditions on their return. VYe
would be gulad to guide other parties
about the country, but it cannot be
done."
PACKER'S DARING
COMES TO LIGHT
Stepped Among Struggling
Horses Loaded With T.
N. T. on Canyon Brink,
Washington, Feb. 24 rThe daring of
a government packer, who , stepped
among a mass of struggling horses load
ed with TNT on the brink of the Grand
Canyon .in an effort to save his animals,
is told today in an official announcement
by the National Park Service of the first i
accident on the Bright Angel trail. The j
accident . occurred January 20. Three '
horses out of eleven : tied together oh
the trail went over the brink and were
washed to death below. . One fell 1,000 ;

Another fell 200 feet with 150 pounds of
TNT which did not explode
The pack train was carrying material
for the ' construction of the suspension
bridge across the Colorado river, over a
trail which was slippery with ice and i
snow. The packers had just led tha
train beyond the first turn on the trail
and had gone to the rear to untie the
horses when one of them became excit
ed and crowded the lead horse off the
trail. '
Packer Homer J Aron managed to
get among the excited horses and to cut
the rope between three struggling ani
mals and the rest of the train.
All materials for the bridge including
