Mr. Haynes in His Opening Gun Does Not I’se Name. “Republican.’ 1 Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel ' Raleigh. Aug. It).—Why is the Re ‘l>uhli<-aii party in North CamHna try ing to conceal its identity? Is it ashamed of the name “republican" because of the odium the present ad ministration with its false economy program and slush fund scandals, has cast upon it? This is a question both Democrats and out and out Re publicans are beginning to ask as the result of the opening gun in the cam paign of Johnson J. Hayes, Republi can candidate for senator. For al though considerable literature is being in advocacy of Mr. Hayes’ candidacy, not once is the word "Re publicAi" or “Republican party” men tioned in these circulars, all of which are signed by or issued in the inter-! est of “-The Patriotic and Protective League.’” The only way it Is possible to con nect the “Patriotic and Protective League” with file Republican party j in the state is through its officers, who are easily recoguizable as lead- ; ers of the G. O. P. in the state. The president of the league is John L. Morehead, son of John Motley More head, of Charlotte, for many years the recognized head of she Republican party in North* Carolina. The secre tary of the organization is B. C. , Campbell, chief field deputy of Gil liam Grissom, collector of internal revenue and one of the G. O. P. bul warks in the state, sometimes spoken of as the next Republican candidate j for governor of North Carolina. The ! treasurer of the league is T. L. Bland, j one of the owners of the Sir Walter I Hotel in Raleigh, and former mem- • bers of the Republican state commit-! tee. The letter issued by the league in advocating support of Mr. Hayes deals 1 largely with praise of Hayes and urges I people to come and hear his campaign speeches. Following are some ex cerpts taken from the letter than will indicate the general tone of the docu ment : “We ask that you will avail your self of the opportunity to hear the Honorable Johnson J. Hayes, who will speak in our county and the vicinity at the place and on the date and hour mentioned in the enclosed list. “Please be so kind as to invite friends to join you and to post the list of his speaking dates. “Johnson J. Hayes will present to the people of the east the advantages which will come to them with a pro tective tariff upon the agricultural products, now being sought be peanut growers, and equally upon the indus trial products. He believes in the Sout’.i and that it will also make it the rival of the great manufacturing states of the North. “What will most appeal to—you is that he is a self-made man, and he is the kind that wifi elicit your admi ration ; young and self reliant, he will bring to you from the mountains the enthusiasm of the west to match in fair contest the conservatism of the east. Hear him for his sake and for your own.” With the letter an ambitious pro gram of speaking dates in the eastern section of the state is inclosed. Whether the campaign is to be con tiued under an attempted cloak of separation from the Republican party cannot be’ learned, but if so, it is likely to be even more than a farce, according to those who know the sit uation over the state.

Charlotte, Aug. 19. —The prospec tive spending of $550,000 within the next nine months for the construc tion of hospitals in four of North Carolina's richest counties and the owning of Mecklenburg's new $150,- 000 tuberculosis sanatorium oh Sep tember 7, is a strong indication that North Carolina is awakening to its hoed for more adequate hospital fa cilities, according to Dr. IV. S. Ran kin, director of the hospitalization section of the Duke endowment- Dr, Rankin returned from More head City, where he spoke at the nieeting of the State Association of County Commissioners. At this meet ing, Dr. Rankiu explained the pro visions of the Duke Endowment’# hospital relief plan. While in East ern North Carolina; Dr. Rankin also addressed the Board of Commission ers of Wayne. County. Haywood County, which recently voted to issue SIOO,OOO in bonds foi the erection of a hospital at Way nesville, is expected to inspire other counties in 'Western North Carolina to do likewise. Durham and Forsyth counties plan to push bils through the next Legislature, authorizing, elections at which the question of floating in each county a bond issue of $150,000 will be decided. Only a legal technicality prevented counties from holding the election in 1925, it was declared. Gaston County - also plans to seek authority to float a bond issue of ap proximately $150,000, it was said. North Carolina needs approximate ly 5.500 hospital beds to care for the bedridden cases- It has now only ap proximately 3,000 in use. I)r. Ran kin, declared in pointing out the great need for capitalization facili ties. “. While declining to confirm it Dr. Rankin cited a recent report on hos pital facilities of the country, issued by the American Medical Associa tion. This report stated that this State's hospital facilities averaged one bed to 517 persons, as compared with the national average of one bed to* 291 persons. North Carolina was placed fortieth in the list of States. South Carolina, which the report stated had one hospital bed to each 797 persons was placed last. The movement to provide for the State’s hospital needs will gain momentum each year, Dr. Rankin forecast. He cited the growth of the public health work in the State as an indication of how * the State “warmed-up” to an idea of this na ture- Public health work began to take hold of North Carolina about twelve years ago, when Guilford County employed a fulltime health officer. There now are forty counties in the State, in which fulltin?e health officers-are employed, it was pointed out. Dr. Rankin formerly was secre tary of the State Board of Health. Dr. Rankin said the hospitalization, section of the Duke Endowment is conducting an educational campaign among the leaders of the Carolina people. This work and a recent sur vey of the needs of the existing hos pitals caused Dr. Rankin to go into all counties in the State and into the majority of the counties of South Carolina. This work is scheduled to continue for an indefinite period, Dr. Rankin said. Officials of the hospitalization sec tion are exerting themselves in pointing out the needs of the varl " ous communities of the- State and urging the leaders to work for ade quate facilities to meet the need, said Dr. Rankin. - J.

A. A. events and paternal guardian to all the racing boys, will take the. field with his army of stop watch punchers to decide which of the some two dozen entries shall be among the lucky eighteen for the sprint races Monday. The arrival of Bennett Hill in Char lotte leaves only one of the expected drivers now absent, Ralph Hepburn. So far eight pilots "have signified to Fred Wagner that they are ready to battle with time for something bet ter than 120 miles per hour, the speed necessary to qualify in the August races. The eight drivers. Hartz, Comer, Lockhart, Hearn, Elliott, Cooper, Mc- Donough and Lewis, would have been nine tonight had not Harlan Fengler’s supercharger broken. Fengler’s supercharger seems to be his most particular hoodoo for it was a broken one that forced him out of the Altoon race and the same trou ble caused him to leave the track at Salem. “But what can you expect,” grins Fengler, "when they are making 40,- 000 revolutions per minute?” The latest accident resulted in all the gears in the mechanism being stripped except one. Fengler said, however, that the oth er member of his locomobile team. Eddie Hearn, was ready to take off to morrow and that by working all night he would be ready for Friday’s try outs. Several drivers were out at the speedway today tuning up and look ing the track over. Lockhajt. Ben Jones and Frank Elliott took their carse on the track and things were made to hum for a few laps. Elliott's unofficial clocking was 35 flat, or a speed o»f 128 miles per tfour. “Looks like I might qualify at that,” said Elliott, who is driving a green Miller special. # A Mrs. Lawrence Little Completes Course.

JUNIOR ORDER SHOWS VERY SUCCESSFUL YfeAtt Records Reveals That at Least One Member of the Order Dies Almost Every Day. Sanford. Aug. 18.—The 36th annual convention of the North Carolina council of the Junior Order came to a close here tonight, with the elec tion of officers. C. IV. Snyder, of Winston-Salem, was elected grand councilor. * —. Wilson had little difficulty in win ning the pi- fvTlege~of enTertafnil?g~ the* next meeting of the state council.

Walters, national councilor, today to the members of the order in the effort of certain in terests to place all institutions fog the care of the state welfare depart ment. The proiwsition is to bring all big welfare work under control of “a woman grasping for power,’’ he said, referring to Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, who has been actively en gaged in the past in an effort to bring all the institutions under tlifc charge of her department, ■«.» / The condition was brought to th« attention of the national councilor by J. M. Sharpe, of Reidsville, a part: state councilor of the order apd one of the members of the state legisla ture who waged a determined a'nfl telling fight against the plan which resulted in its defeat, at leant fvtso far as that session of the general as sembly was concerned. - The mem bership of the Junior Order was urged by Mr. Walters to keep a close watch upon the next session of the legisla ture so that when any similar at tempt to strength the power of the state welfare department might be vigorously fought. During th‘e past year 3,761 men were initiated into membership of the Junior Order in North Carolina, re port of the state -secretary shows. As compared with the previous year, 75 more men were admitted into the order In 1025 through initiation than during the year just drawing to a close. The year has been a vary successful one from every standpoint. New members, including those ad mitted by initiation, reinstatement and received by card, numbered 5,162 for the past year as aga : nst '5,087 for the year preceding it. - Four hundred and sixteen members of the order passed away/ during the past year, the report shows, as against 361 for the year previous. Scarcely a day passed but that at least one member of the order died. An interesting feature of the year is that only nineteen members were expelled from the order for all causes. This 1 is taken by state council offi-, cials to indicate a better understand-, ing and a stronger love on the part of the rank and file of the order for the order.
