THE CONCORD TIMES $2.00 a Year, Strictly in Advance, The Names of Nominees Appears Today in Our Big Subscription Campaign The Nominations Are Not Yet Closed and There Is Yet Time for You to En ter Your Name. NOMINATION IS ONLY FIRST STEP The Vote Count of Each Contestant Entered in the Campaign Will Be Made Tomorrow. Today it appears—the firut list of nominations. Names of nominees received up till 9 o’clock Saturday nigln together with their denomina tion vote of 5,000 is printed today for candidates entered in The Concord Tribune-Times great “Everybody Wins Something’’ four-automobile and cash prize campaign. Nominations are not closed. In fact, today there are more prizes than there are active candidates. Oppor tunity without a handicap is here to day for new entries who will “carry on.” This small list published today must not be misunderstood. The names printed are just nominations. The list only serves to show who is entered. It doe*> not indicate the LIVE. ACTIVE candidates/ Some who have been nominated failed, so far, to turn in one single, solitary -subscription to The Tribune or The Times. Some have not even called to get an official re ceipt book. Those are, so far, can didates in name only, nothing more. Subscriptions Will Win. Candidates who will not produce subscriptions can not hope to win. The more subscriptions you can pro duce the more votes you earn.. The free coupons appearing in The Trib une and Times from day to day arc valuable only in the degree in which you enhance your vote score by sub scriptions. There is absolutely no hope in coupons alone. Coupons are printed, primarily to stimulate interest. Os course they do have value, but. it is questionable when one considers that one subscrip tion alone offsets a whole bundle of coupons. Nominations But Start. Simple nomination of a candidate does not mean anything. The nom ination is but the first step, the starting point. Any one content to rest after nomination can not get far in his election. Active work, hon est eflFort, constant attention to the business in hand, and that alone can get votes. And votes win. and sub scriptions mean votes. With so few candidates entered, and so many of those yot get. at least, manifesting any LIFE or ACTIVITY, the opportunity is here for some live ones to enter and “carry on” to win. In fact, the more candidates en tered the less votes it will take to win. If two candidates are running for office they must have all the votes between them. The winner must have a majority—over half—of all the votes cast. Rut if five candidates seek the same office the winner only needs to have more vote than the next higher candidate. Then too, in this campaign, “ev erybody wins something.” There is the new Buick Brougham, the new Studebaker Phaeton, the new Hudson Coach, the new Chevrolet Sedan. There are purses of gold and silver totalling hundreds of dollars. And remember too, the cash commission of 10 per cent, paid all active non-win ning participants. In an election for office, but one candidate wins. In The Tribune and Times election “ev erybody wins”—YOU WIN. To Contestants. The vote count of each contestant entered in the campaign will be made public tomorrow. There are con testants entered who so sass have failed to make a single report, and this will give those contestants an opportunity to get. in their count for Tuesday’s issue. All subscriptions should be turned into campaign head quarters by tonight to appear in that count. ' Any contestant who has entered the race and the name does not ap pear in the list of candidates kindly notify the Campaign Department im mediately. Phone 579. .

Aircraft Inpuiry To Cover Fully Charges Made Against Service President’s Special Board Starts Broad Inquiry While Another Board Seeks to Find Cause for Disastter Which Wrecked the Dir igible Shenandoah. Washington, Sept. 21.— (A 3 )—The much investigated air defense of the nation was stater on another long pull today with the President’s spe cial air board inheriting all the con troversial backgrounds of accusation and criticism in starting out to find the facts. Called to open its hearing at 10 :30 a. m., the board had called as the first winess Acting Secretary of War Davis, who fire urged the board’s creation after the controversy over aircraft matters, and had been stirred to new heat by the most recent charges of Col. William A. Mitchell, formic assistant army air chief. It was Colonel Mitchell who furnished the chief impetus for the long investiga tion conducted by a committee of the house at the last Congress. Want More him! Better Planes. Washington. Sept. 21.— UP) —The President's special aircraft inquiry began today with the War Depart ment on the witness stand, asking for more and better airplanes, but object ing stubbornly to Col. Win. Mitchell's pet project for a separate unified air service. Meeting in a committee room at the capitol the board named by Mr. Cool idge found an imposing array of army officials marshalled before if—to give information and advice. Acting Secretary Davis, Major Gen eral John L. Hinds, chief of staff of the army, and one or tw T o A. E. F. flying commanders who remain on active duty, and Brigadier Gen. Huglr Drum, the assistant chief of stuff, in turn described the air service as an important army of national defense, but one which must be operated in war times as an integral part of the whole war machine, not as a sepa rately controlled unit of offense or defense. General Drum urged the board to consider, carefully the powers and lim- JUDGE OGLESBY ORDERS MOB MEMBERS BE HELD W’ants Indictment of Men Who Made Assault on Buncombe County Jail. Asheville, N. C., Sept. 21.— UP) —In- dictment of leaders and members of the mob who participated in the as sault upon the Buncombe county jail Saturday night was ordered by Judge John Oglesby in Superior Court to day when he charged the grand jury.

Turning to a discussion of anti aircraft guns, he declared an erron eous impression had been given the country that the war department looked upon ground fire as adequate protection against air attack. He said he himself had been misquoted as saying he could protect New York City from an air attack with a bat tery of twelve three-inch guns. The general then quoted from the record of the house aircraft committee hifi testimony as follows: “I feel this, speaking from my per sonal experience, and if jW wHI-giw me say twelve anti-aircraft guns of three-inch caliber, that I will keep within range of these guns any bomber from doing serious destruction.” Lnkehurst, N. J., Sept. 21. — (A 3 ) — Through survivors, civilian eye wit nesses and experts, a naval court of inquiry called to meet here today will seek to get at the facts as to the cause of the wreck of the airship Shenandoah. While this catastrophe of the air served to speed a general investiga tion of the whole air service under the direction of the President, the inquiry here will be wholly independent of that starting today at Washington be fore a special board named by Presi dent Coolidge. In the natural course, however, some of the witnesses called here will be heard by that board. Chief among them will be Col. Wm. Mitchell, former assistant chief of the army air service, who repeatedly has assailed both the army and navy ad ministration of the air forces. Col. Mitchell Relieved of Duty.

ASK POSTAGE STAMP WITH WILSON’S IMAGE Woodrow WiLson Foundation Makes Request—New Favors Granting It “In Due Course.” Washington, Sept. 21.—The Wood row Wilson Foundation has asked Postmaster General New to issue a Woodrow Wilson postage stamp in December. Norman II- Davits of New York made the proposal. Mr. New said that “such an isisue would be entirely proper” and lie had “no doubt it will follow in due course,” but the time since the death of Mr. Wilson was rather short if precedents were to be followed. "The issuance of the Harding me morial stamp was obviously proper, as he died in office,” Mr. New wrote to Mr. Davie. “The iesue of the second Harding stamp was made almost compulsory by the act of February 28, 1925, which creates an immediate demand for a 1 1-2 cent stamp.” Mr. New said that he had caused the records to be examined “to see ju-4 what has been done in the past with reference to the adoption of the portrait of an individual.” He con tinued. “I find, for example, that in the ease of former President Cleveland, who died in 1908, nothing was issued until this present administration is sued on March 20, 1923, or fifteen years after his death, a stamp bear ing his likeness. In the case of Grant, five years elapsed; in that of Hayes, twenty-nine years; in those of Mc- Kinley and Roosevelt, three >*-nrs each before stamps bearing their likenesses were issued. “I have no doubt that within a reasonable time the memory of Mr. Wilson will be duty hoored. as I think it very properly should be.” WOULD MARK THOSE WHO GIVE BAD CHECKS Secretary Leonard Also Would Pun ish Merchants Who Accept Them. Thinks Law All Right. Statesville, Sept. 20. “There should be some way of marking men and women who give worthless checks, and then the merchant or other business man who accepts checks from those who are marked should be punished with them,” de clared J. Paul Leonard, executive secretary of the North Carolina Mer chants association and editor of the Carolina Retailer, in an editorial ap pearing in the September number of the Retailer in which he discusses the constitutionality of the new bad check law, to be decided by the Su preme court. Mr. Leonard says that- llie cheek law is effective and has greatly re duced the merchants’ losses in bad cheeks in those cities and communi ties where there is sufficient public sentiment against the giving of worthless checks, and where mer chants have the nerve to bring in dictment, and officers and eour.s have the erve to enforce the law. “If bankers and court officials continue to express publicly their opinion that the law is unconstitu tional it is natural for the scamps who give worthless checks to feel they have a free hand. All these seem to forget that the old check law has never been repealed, and the new law is still in fore until it* is deelred unconstitutional or repealed,” remarked Mr. Leonard last night- WILDCATS OVERWHELM ELON Outcome Is Never In Doubt.—Sap penfield, of Davidson Suffers Brok en Leg. Davidson, Sept. 19.—Elon’s hopes for an initial victory over the W ild cats went smashing so ranotlier year when the Davidson eleven tore through the Christians for a 34 to 0 victory today. The game, played un der a broiling sun that would have set heavier squads to the showers, was the first of the 1925 football season in North Carolina. Although the Wildcats had been predicted as the winner of the initial fray, the Elon team had been played up as Elon’s best bet against Davidson and the ter rific pounding that Coach Younger's machine handed the visitors was lit tle expected. Davidson paid dearly for the vic tory. Nick Sappenfield. brilliant quarter of lass season, broke his leg after he had twisted through the Elon line, the break coming as he was tackled and fell.

CHRISTIANITY IS HOPE OF COUNTRY Says Already Teaching of Christianity Has Had a Great Effect in Changing Bad Japanese Customs. * t Definite assertion that Japan is not preparing for war with tht United States was made in the course of a sermon yesterday by Dr. Z. Hinohara, pastor of the Methodist Church in Kobe, Japan, and teacher in the K vnsanie Seminary there. Admit ting that during the World War 'he militaristic and jingoistic elements were in control in Japan and sought every means of preparing for war, Dr. Hinohara declared there has been a decided change in his country and that Christianity is responsible to a great degree the change. “We are told in an article in the Saturday Evening Post that Japan is making airplanes at the rate of 500 a month.” the Japanese professor con tinued, “the airplanes being part of Japan’s equipment. I do not be lieve the planes are being built and I am certain if they were the author of the article would not know it. He speaks of seeing the planes being made, yet I am certain if Japan was preparing secretly for war with the United States strangers could not get admission into plants in which war materials were being manufactured.” I)r. Hinohara pointed out further in backing his argument, that Japanese people pay huge royalties for foreign ears because they cannot manufac ture engines. “If we could manufac ture 500 airplanes a month, certain ly it seems that we could make a good automobile,” he said. “I admits few years ago the mili tajristie leaders and the jingoists were in) control but there has been a change, brought on by the teaching of Chris tianity in Japan,” the speaker said. “A few years ago children sought swords, guns, miniature battleships and similar toys. Now they are choosing other playthings, according to a statement made to me by a prom inent manufacturer of Japan. This shows* the change in sentiment. Just before, during and just after the World War many of us who preached peace were said to be unpatriotic. Our people had been taught differ ently. They were unwilling to be lieve there was any way to get peace except through war. -Now they are seeing in adifferent light, and Japan is not preparing for war.” More Christian teachers are needed in Japan, Dr. Hinohara said, to show the people the folly of spending huge sums for the army and navy while children lack school facilities. “Our people are taxed so heavily for army and navy that we must do without schools, and some people must do without real necessities. I plead for a Christianity that will show the people, especially the leaders of the people, the folly of such a program.” Dr. Hinohara said it was the duty of Christian America to take pains to send its message of light to the east, adding that “the more Japanese there are converted the closer will be the friendship between the two nations. Christianity draws nations together as it draws individuals. It makes nations co-operate; it makes them anxious to aid one another, and after all there can be without a desire for co-operation and friendship. Ido not want an isolat ed Christanity, either between nations! or individuals. “America is great; Jalpan is great,; but Christanity is gr#Uter. It is fine to be a citizen of America as it is fine to be a citizen of .|fapan, but it is still finer to be a citizen of the < Kingdom of God.” ( In his home land, the speaker said, Christanity has aided the people in getting away from supertsition and in so doing has bettered their morale and standard of living. Christian ity also has been the chief factor in the emancipation of women in Japan, and at Ihe same time it has pro duced some of the real leaders of the nation today. “When I was a young man I thought women did not need an edu cation. My mother barely could write her name. The Christians came and taught us otherwise and now in Japan there are more govern ment schools for girls than there are for boys. In addition various church es have opened schools for grils.” Dr Hinohara said the people of Japan were beginning to realize that women are one of the real assets of the na tion. While no government officials of high rank are recognized Christians, the speaker said that many of the outstanding leaders in every-day life in Japan today are Christians, and they are exerting a tremendous influ ence for good on the rank and file. “The greatest benefit we have had from Christanity I think, however, is its influence on our people for peace, and more and more the peo ple are becoming convinced that we do not need great armies and navies,” said Dr. Hinohara. He pleaded with his hearers to work at home for peace and for peace the world over. “Do your part to keep great armies and navies from being planned in other nations and we will not need th?m,” he said. “Then we will have more money for TWO ARRESTED FOR SLAYING OF WOMAN IN HOME YESTERDAY Arthur Holt and Mary Harcq, Husband and Daughter of Dead Wom an, Are Being Held.
