MENACE TO COUNTRY Sen. Overman Issued Warn ing in An Address Deliv ered Before Kiwanis Club Here Friday Night. WARNS AGAINST THE BOLSHEVIKI Says Too Many Amendments to Constitution Are Being Offered^—Favors the States Keeping Rights. An address by Senater Lee S. Over man, of Salisbury, and several vocal selections by Mr. Alan I>. Prindell, of tliis City, were features of Hie meet ing oh Friday evening of the Kiwanis Club of Coiieord, held at the \\ M. C, A. Besides Senator Overman and Mr. Prindell, the Kiwanians liad as guests at the meeting. Rotarins Luther.Havt sell. Bill Sherrill, Fab Haywood, Bail ey” Womble and Maury Richmond, Mr. W. H. Dewesse. of this city, and Mr. Staunton Xorthrup, of New York City. The club transacted no business at the meeting, which was turned over to Major Will Foil, chairman of team No. 7, in charge, of the program. Mr. Alan D. Prindell, who has op ened a music studio in this city, gave liis hearers, a splendid treat with two vocal solos, hjs accompaniment being rendered by Miss Nell Herring at the piano. Both solos were heartily ap l planded, and were greatly enjoyed, by every one. After the introduction of visitors. Major Foil introduced the speaker of the evening. Senator Lee S. Overman, who, the major declared, was repre senting the greatest State in the Union ; and this State has never in its history been so well represented in the Senate of the United States Con gress as it i* at present. Senator Overman, in acknowledging the introduction, said there was one thing the Major failed to state, anil that is the fact that the Senator is a fellow Kiwanian. Hi* then presented to his audience a matter which he de clared is the greatest menace which faces our great nation today, “the ef forts of certain men and organizations to centralize power in the Congress,’' and made an urgent plea for the con servation of our constitution, which is "the foundation of our country and the cause of our liberty.” € Senator overman was especially se vere in hits criticism of those people who would “amend our constitution j until we have none left.” He pointed out that there are 71 hills to amend the constitution pending in Congress | now, and warned that some of them ' were very dangerous, especially those ! which would direct the teaching of j birth control and would take away cer i tain powers of our courts. Senator Overman was also emphat ic in his denunciation of the amend ment relative to regulating child labor in the United States. “If we pass an amendment stating that no children can work until they are 18. and such an amendment has been offered, we will raise a nation of idlers and loaf ers.” Each state should be allowed to make its own laws relative to the working of children, the Senator de clared. and as an example of the effi ciency of this plan, he pointed out that in a senate committee last year it was admitted that North Oar Mina’s child labor law is the finest to .be found in this country. “If we pass this amendment," said Senator Overman, “we will have short haired women and long haired men sleuthing in o\tr factories and telling us how to run our business! The di vine right of states to regulate matters should not be taken away by amend ments. a majority of which are passed by a number of people." The seventeenth, eighteenth and the nineteenth amendments were {tossed by less than 3,000 persons each, he said. This number represented about three-fourths of the members of the legislatures of the various states in the Union. Senator , Overman said that lie fa vored one of the amend ment offered to Congress. “That is the Wadsworth amendment,” he ex plained. “This amendment would put all future amendments up to the peo ple, aud that is who should decide them. You can’t force any law cre ated by a change in the constitution when the majority of the people do not favor the change.” Senator Overman issued a warning against declaring they are attempting to gain control of Congress. “They, will take the powers from our courts, once they get control.” he warn ed, “and put everything in the hands of Congress. Power centralized in Congress is the greatest menace fac ing this country today.” Rights of states to regulate affairs within them is a divine right, the senator said, and he plead with his hearers to fight any movement that tends to further break down the constitution and weaken the rights of the states to “look after their own folks under local conditions.” FARMERS TAKE PLEDGE TO “LIVE AT HOME” As the Result of a Movement by the Extension Workers of the State College. Raleigh. X. C„ May 25. —A total of 2.278 North Carolina farmers have signed the pledge. In this case the pledge is a promise to live at home and is the result of a movement inaugur ated early in the year by the extension workers of tiie State College and State Department of Agriculture, stated Di rector B. W. Kilgore in announcing the total number of farmers who have agreed to carry out “certain fundamen tal things in successful farming in 1023. •' “On February 22 most of the white school teachers of the state, through the co-operation <rt‘ the State Depart ment of Education, were requested to hold a meeting at their school houses at which time blanks were distributed showing ten important things which North Carolina farmers might do to wards living at home,” Mr. Kilgore stated. “Only short notice was given the teachers to prepare for the meet ings, but most of the blanks were'dis tributed. and though only 2,278 farm ers have agreed to carry out the sug gestions of the Extension Service, it shows that North Carolina has made a start towards living at home. Os course many other farmers will take part in the movement though we will have no official, record of their work. Those farmers who faithfully perform seven of the ten things asked will be given an official 'Certificate of Hon or’ signed by the Governor, the Sup erintendent of Education, and the Di rector of Extension." Mr. Kilgore said the 2,278 farmers will be visited during the year by the county agents who will advise them about any problem (Confronting the farmers in carrying out the provis ions of the pledge, yf those signing, 820 were from the Piedmont district, 480 from the Northeastern section, 404 from the Southeastern section, 308 from the central part of the state, and 107 from the mountains. The ten provisions of the pledge are. given by Director Kilgore as follows: “Raise enough corn and hay to carry me through 1024. Raise enough meat to supply my family this year. Have a 12 months in the year gar den. ’ . Provide milk And butter for myMam ily the whole year through. Keep an average of 30 hens on my farm throughout the year.
