FARM TENANCY IN NORTH CAR
OLINA.
The University News Letter from time
to time has devoted space to the question
of farm tenancv in North Carolina and in
its latest issue carries'a rather compre
hensive review of the subject by Paul
W. Wager. We say comprehensive be
cause this latest review covers a fitteen
vear period, showing the trends between
1910 and 1925. The period covered in
cludes vears before the \\ orld \\ ar and
after the World War to register a gener
al movement rather than a war fluctua
tion.
In this fifteen-year period North Car
olina's tenant farmers'increased in num
ber from 10T.28T to 128.254. an increase
of 19.5 per cent. In the same period the
total number of farms increased only
11.: per cent., while farms cultivated by
owners increased only 8.5 per cent. Stat
ed differently, the ratio of tenants to all
farmers was 42.3 in 1910 and 45.2 in 1925.
At this rate of increase the state will
soon have more farm tenants than*owner
cultivators.
It will be noticed that forty-one coun
f.es witnessed a reduction in the number
of tenant farmers in the fifteen-year per
iod and hity-nine counties had increases.
Three of the counties in which tenancy
decreased owe part of the reduction to
loss of territory. Mitchell, Watauga and
Caldwell each surrendering some, terri
tory to form Avery. Since Avery did not
exist in 1910 it is credited with the aver
age rate of decrease of the three counties
from which it was created.
Henderson, rather than Mitchell, ■ is
thus probably entitled to the distinction
of having the most rapid reduction in
farm tenancy. Buncombe follows close
ly, and all of the first ten places are held
by counties beyond the Blue Ridge. Os
the forty-one counties which saw a de
crease in tenancy only six—Brunswick,
Carteret, Hyde, New Hanover, Tyrrell
and Jones —are eastern counties, and
they are tidewater counties which do not
engage extensively in cash crop farming.
Some of the piedmont counties lost
tenants; others made slight gains; only
Cleveland and Alamance witnessed sub
stantial increases—and of these Cleve
land is a big producer of cotton.
In nearly all of the eastern counties
there were big increases in farm tenancy.
Probably no other area in the nation ex
perienced such an increase in farm ten
ants as eastern North Carolina. In thir
ty-six counties there were increases in
excess of twenty-five per cent., and in
eighteen counties in excess of fifty per
cent. Practically all of the counties in
the cash crop belt had increases of from
twenty to seventy percent. It is rather
significant that the greatest increases of
all were in the northeast tidewater coun-,
ties —Chowan, Washington, Martin and
Beaufort. Dare’s five-hundred per cent,
increase loses its significance when it is
observed that its tenants increased in
number from one to six. Hoke county,
like Averv, was not in existence in 1910.
It is credited with an increase equivalent
to that which took place in the parent
counties, Robeson and Cumberland.
Edgecombe leads with 83 ; 3 per cent,
and Greene rartks second with 82.0 per
cent. In thirty-seven counties more than
fifty per cent, of the farmers are tenants.
On the other hand, there are eight moun
tain counties and two tidewater counties
(Dare and Brunswick) with a farm ten
ancy ratio of less than fifteen per cent.
Fifty-six counties have less than the
state average of 45.2 per cent, of farms
operated by tenants, and forty-four coun
ties are above the state average. Fifty
counties had a higher tenancy ratio in
1925 than in 1910, and fifty counties had
a lower ratio.
EMPHASIS IN WRONG PLACE.
The case of “Rabbi” Schneider, of Gas
tonia, seems to us an excellent illustra
tion of the often-repeated charge—that
emphasis is placed in the wrong place at
many colleges. Schneider is a football
star and the following from the Gas
tonia Gazette is relative to his case:
“Rabbi” Schneider, prominent Gaston
ia high athlete who was all set to enter
Syracusce University this fall and had
his Pullman reservation made to leave
Sunday night, is at the University of
North Carolina.
“He was taken there Sunday morning
by Coach Grady Pritchard and Harry
Schwartz in their car, despite the repeat
ed declaration of Schneider that he want
ed to go to Syracuse.
“After the announcement came out last
week that Schneider was headed for Sy
racuse, the coaches at the University got
together and tried to prevent his going.
When it was definitely announced that
he was leaving Sunday night, Pritchard
and Schwartz blew into Gastonia Satur
day night about ten o'clock. From then
until eleven or after they talked to the lc-
athlete in an effort to persuade him
•to reconsider. Finally one of them pick
ed up his baggage, which was already
packed to go Syracuse, and put it in
their car, and the trio left Sunday morn
ing. 1
“Schneider wanted to go on the train,
but the University coaches would hear
none of that.
“According to word left here bv
Schneider, he will leave the University
and go on to Syracuse if he does not like
it at Chapel Hill.”
Suppose Schneider had been only a
star student. Would this have happen
ed? We have been expecting a denial of
the whole thing but this can’t be denied —
he went to Chapel Hill for some reason
when he had signed up for Syracuse. He
may have gone there anyway, but we
doubt it. Would an excellent student
have had the same experience?
LIKE TO WORRY.
The Kansas City Star finds that “a lot
of people find consolation if not a certain
brand of happiness in worry.”
This statement came on the heets of a
declaration by a New York health au
thority that worry never gets any one
anywhere and that the chief things we
worry over are health, position, wealth
and pride. *
That is so and we have not yet been
able to see where worry helps in any of
these problems. The Salisbury Post
says “if all this rs true why worry over
worrying?” and goes on to offer this sug
gestion from the Star:
“Perhaps worry shortens life. But
where is the proof? Most of the bright,
cheerful people we have known have
died young, while the grouches survived.
This helps to account for the fact that
worrying is extremely common today.
“Obviously, we need a new slant on the
worrying business. Perhaps if it is de
sirable to stop worrying the best thing
to do would be to create the impression
that it is a valuable habit .which ought
to be cultivated, and to devise a law Com
pelling its practice. Then people would
take a particular delight in breaking the
law and in freeing themselves from wor
ry altogether. Otherwise it would be
well enough to let matters stand as they
are. For the chap who worries probably
does it because he likes it. So why
should other people worry about that?”
A REAL VACATION.
Governor McLean is back from a vaca
tion spent in the north woods and we are
ready to believe he was reallv^benefitted.
We call this a vacation because, ap
parently the Governor did things there
he was not accustomed to. He spent the
time profitably. He built up his body by
physical exercise and in so doing made it
possible .for him to better carry on the
tedious tasks that confront him in Ral
eigh.
The Greenville, S. C., News recently
commented on the Governor’s vacation,
stressing the point that the Governor did
not spend his time idly sitting. The ex
cellent editorial reads:
“Governor McLean, of North Carolina,
returns from his vacation in Wisconsin
with the news that he put in eight hours
each day doing outdoor work. He left a
monument to his pick—an excavation
eight feet deep and 18 by 24 feet wide. ‘lt
was a long time since I did that sort of
work,’ he said, ‘but I found it came back
pretty easy.’
“Vacations would be a good thing for
men of sedentary occupation if they fol
lowed the precedent of the Tar Heef Gov
ernor. But unfortunately many of them
get the habit of sitting so much that they
sit out their vacation too—in an automo
bile or on a resort porch. Sitting is an
insidious habit. * If more men would
break themselves of it periodically, there
would be an increase in the gubernatorial
timber. One can literally sit one’s self
to death.”
REIDSVILLE’S MURDER MYSTERY
North Carolina has on its hands a mur
der mystery that may take rank with the
most interesting and most baffling in his
tory.
Mrs. Gatlin, pretty young bride, is
charged with slaying her father, R. Smith
Petty, and burying his body in the base
ment of a house the family formerly oc
cupied. She is in jail, but emphatically
denies that she had any part in the slay
ing.
There is another interesting and unus
ual angle to the case—the manner in
which the evidence was submitted. Fra
tricides are not unknown in the State,
but it is unusual for arrests in murder
cases to follow alleged confessions to
ministers. In this case an evangelist
told police officers Mrs. Gatlin came to
him at the close of a service and confess
ed that she had killed her father, then
missing for several weeks.
Police officers must have put little con
fidence in the minister’s statement for at
first they refused to make an investiga
tion. Petty, it seems, was in the habit
of wandering around and they just took
it for granted that he had gone again.
Later developments confirmed the minis
ter’s statement, or at least he was par
tially confirmed by the finding of the
body.
Mrs. Gatlin denies that she told the
minister anything but she has this dam
aging evidence to break down—the dead
body was found and death was said to
have been caused by blows on the head,
The minister having declared the girl told
him she struck her father on the head
with an axe.
And then there’s another angle to the
case—just how far should a minister go
in making public confessions of crime?
Is it right for a preacher to tell anything
told to him in the confidence of a confes
sion ? This question will never be solved,
for there are hundreds who think it is
wrong for a minister even to uncover a
murder when he got his information
through a confession, and there are just
as many who feel a minister should have
done as this evangelist did.
The public is following closely every
development in the case, and the Petty
case may give to North Carolina the same
interest the Willis case has given to
South Carolina. There’s mystery and a
woman involved in the case and these al
ways touch the imagination of the pub
lic.
Mrs. Gatlin may continue to maintain
her innocence but we would not be'sur
prised to see alienists in the case. Maybe
she will follow the old defense of tempor
ary insanity. And if she does there will
be alienists aplenty for both sides.
GEE, IT’S GREAT TO BE AN EDI
TOR.
You who often think, perhaps, that the
life of an editor is an easy one should
read carefully the following:
An editor is just naturally up against
it.
If he publishes cigarette advertise
ments he is accused of debauching the
youth of the land.
If he doesn’t like Coca-Cola he is liable
to lose an advertising contract. If he
savs it is a fine drink he is suspected of
being subsidized.
If he denounces liquor and advocates
prohibition people say he is a fanatic and
a reformer. If he keeps silent on the sub
ject they say he is afraid to talk out and
intimate that he is a likker-head.
If he contends for what he thinks is
right and his ideas don’t happen to coin
cide with the opinion of those in high
places, he is denounced for showing dis
respect to constituted authority.
If he doesn’t have anything at all to
say on his editorial page the other papers
won’t exchange with him.
If he proposes public movements some
body on the outskirts casually suggests
that the editor is after some graft.
If he endorses one man for public of
fice he makes all the other candidates
mad. v
If he doesn’t indorse anybody he is told
he hasn’t any backbone.
If he doesn’t pay his bills when they
are presented his credit rating goes down
to zero in five minutes. If he tries to col
lect the money owing him, he is told to
come back next week.
If he stops the paper of a subscriber
who owes him for five years back, he
makes an enemy. If he doesn’t stop it he
loses that much every week.
If Si Perkins comes to town to sell
two and a half dozen'eggs and the paper
doesn’t say that Mr. Perkins made a bus
iness trip to the city last week the editor
is charged with being “stuck up.”
If the town needs improvements and
the editor says so he makes big taxpay
ers mad. If he sleeps over the subject
his subscribers say he is afraid to tell the
truth.
If he doesn’t do cheaper job printing
than the out-of-town printer he loses the
order. If he does charge less and gets the
order he fails To make any profit.
If he calls names he is liable to get all
beat up. If he doesn’t they say he is a
coward.
If he lives at all he is lucky. If he
doesn’t they say it served him right.
Gee, it’s great to be an editor.
JUDGE BOWIE EXPLAINS.
Judge Tam Bowie hastens to explain
that he resigned from the Superior Court
bench because the people of his district
did not support him when the question of
a successor to Judge Parker came up,
and because he wanted to be home more.
The resignation came immediately af
ter Governor McLean had appointed
Judge Deal, of Winston-Salem, and was
taken \)y many as an indication of Judge
Bowie s displeasure. That was not the
case, the judge says. He found that the
people of his district did not offer con
certed support for him and hp does not
want to serve under such circumstances.
That will satisfy some people but not
all of them. That will stop Some of the
political gossip but not all of it. There
are many who will maintain right along
that Judge Bowie would have accepted
the place and kept it had Governor Mc-
Lean offered it to him. What the people
of his district thought would not have
entered into the question so much then.
Judge Bowie is one of the most popu
lar men in North Carolina, and this too
added fuel to the fire. There were those
who saw in his resignation a warning that
he would be the political foe of Governor
McLean hereafter, and such opposition
would amount to something.
We are ready to accept Judge Bowie’s
explanation, but just the same we are go
ing to watch for the reaction. We are
anxious to see just what will happen
should he and Governor McLean have to
fight it out on some important public,
THE CONCORD TIMES
question.
ANOTHER SCHOOL YEAR.
Concord youngsters have entered up
on another school year. School officials
are confident the term will be one of the
most successful in the city’s history due
to the excellent faculties secured, and an
nounce that the work has started with
less confusion and with more confidence
on the part of all than ever before.
It is to be hoped that the year will not
be wasted and this wish is directed es
pecially toward the high school students.
Children in the lower grades are not so
prone to waste their time and time wast
ed there is not so important. The older
student should realize the importance of
exerting all of his power toward master
ing the subjects presented to him. He
is at the stage where a careless, indiffer
ent attitude may effect his whole’life.
Parents, should co-operate with the
teachers and officials, should try to in
still within their children the importance
of an education and see to it that the
children go at least half-way in solving
difficulties that naturally will arise.
IT IS AN INVESTMENT.
According to the Bureau of Advertis
ing of the American Newspaper Publish
ers Association, fifty-one cities and five
State groups of the United States are in
vesting $4,703,333 in community adver
tising this year. Os this amount the cit
ies are spending $4,350,000 and the State
or regional associations the balance.
Os the fifty-one cities appropriating $4,-
350,000 for advertising, the South shows
twenty-six cities, or more than half of the
total, with appropriations amounting in
the aggregate to $1,985,000. These ap
propriations are for the year* 1927. The
list of Southern cities with the amount ap
propriated by each is published by Editor
and Publisher as follows:
Asheville, N. C. SIOO,OOO
Atlanta, Ga. i 250,000
Biloxi, Miss., 15,000
Birmingham, Ala. 10,000
Chattanooga, Tenn. 65,000

St. Augustine, Fla. 100,000
Tampa, Fla.. 145,000
Tulsa. Okla. 25,000
Wilmington, N. C. 25,000
The Manufacturers Record is certain
that this list does not include all of the
Southern cities that are spending money
for advertising during the present year.
It is sure that there are others that are
advertising rather heavily, but it gives no
names.
As to the probable extent of commun
ity advertising, Editor and Publisher
quotes a California authority on the sub
ject as follows:
“A survey of the community pano
rama at the beginning of 1927 is bewil
dering. It is doubtful if anyone can say
how many community advertisers there
are and just how much they are spend
ing. There are dozens in the national
field, scores advertising on a regional
basis and hundreds engaged in more or
less local appeals.” To which Editor and
Publisher adds:
“These appropriations range from*as
low as SI,OOO to as high as SIOO,OOO.
California can probably still claim lead
ership among the boosters. The citizen
ry of two cities of the State, anxious to
have Easterners go there to live and spend
their money, contributed $1,100,000 this
year for advertising the two proud Cali
fornia cities being Los Angeles, with an
advertising appropriation of $700,000,
and San Francisco with $400,000.
“Florida as a State is second to Cali
fornia as a believer in the power of ad
vertising. Some of the cities with mon
ey available this year to be used to tell
about themselves include Daytona
Beach, Jacksonville, Key West, Miami,
Palm Beach, St. Petersburg, St. Augus
tine and Tampa.”
Advertising as an investment, whether
it is for community or private enterprise.
Business concerns familiar with the suc
cess of advertising include in it their bud
gets just as they do rents, clerk hire and
the like. It is necessary to success and
every community can study with profit
the figures outlined above.
INCREASE IN OUR FEEBLE
MINDED.
Complete returns received by the De
partment of Commerce from 36 States,
covering 60 institutions out of a total of
75 State institutions for feeble-minded
and epileptics which were in operation in
1926 show an increase in the disease.
These 60 institutions had a total of 7,203
first admissions during the yeaer 1926, as
compared with 6,633 in 1925, or an in
crease of 8.6 per cent. These first ad
missions represent patients received dur-1
ing the year, who had not previously been
under treatment in any institution for
feeble-minded and epileptics.
For the 36 states represented, there
were 7.6 first admissions per 100,000 of
the general population, as compared with
7.4 first admissions per 100,000 in 1922.
In other words the number of first ad
missions has increased only a little more
rapidly than the general population.
Increase in the number of such cases
treated does not necessarily mean an in
crease in the State since the figures deal
.with only those cases taken up for treat
ment. Such an increase may mean only
an increase in facilities for handling such
cases.
The extent to which provision has been
made for the institutional care of feeble
minded and epileptics is perhaps best in
dicated by the number of patients in the
institutions on a given date. In the 36
states covered by this statement the num
ber of feeble-minded and epileptic pa
tients under institutional care shows a
steady increase, as indicated bv the fig
ures for the dates at the beginning and
the end of the two most recent years for
which data are available, which are as
follows:
January 1, 1922, 39,596; January 1.
1923, 42,164; January 1, 1926, 49,788; and
January 1, 1927, 52,043. The number of
such patients under care per 100,000 of
the general population increased from
47.0 on January 1, 1923, to 54.7 on Jan
uary 1, 1927. For the most part the fig
ures for the individual states show simi
lar increases.
In many of the States adequate facili
ties for caring for these people have not
been provided, and it is encouraging to
note that from year to year we are giv
ing more of them the attention they so
much need. No State should boast of its
wealth, culture or background ‘ until it
has provided for these people who cannot
help themselves.
CONDITIONS IN THE SOUTH.
Mr. Walter S. Case continues to see
the South a region prosperous and ad
vancing. Concluding a discussion of
Southern Railway affairs, he says:
“The various basic activities in the
South have been undergoing a sound and
healthy development. Agriculture has
kept step with the rest of the country
and wider diversification has helped to
bring greater profits to the farm. Mining
development has been actively pursued
and the rich mineral deposits of the South
are utilized as industry has increased its
demands for. raw materials. Manufac
turing has shown the greatest rate of in
crease and a new industrial region has
been created in the South which is tak
ing full advantage of the many opportun
ities which this region offers. This well
balanced progress has brought with it
rapidly increasing demands for transpor
tation. Railroad traffic in the South has
accordingly grown at a much faster pace
than in other sections of the country.
Moreover, this traffic is well diversified
between products of agriculture and
mines and manufactures. Such diversifi
cation is particularly desirable for a rail
road as depression in any one line may be
partially offset by continued activity in
others.
“The railroads of the South can confi
dently s expect a continued growth in well
balanced traffic for many years to come.
With the establishment of satisfactory
earning power and good credit these
roads have been able to expand their fa
cilities and to keep well ahead of the de
mands made upon them for prompt and
efficient service. The value of such rail*
road service is becoming more generally
recognized in the South and it is proba
ble that good earnings will be assured to
these roads as long as the South contin
ues to advance along the lines which as
sure a general prosperity to all.”
We doubt whether the Anti-Saloon
League can find a man ready to carry on
the work of Wayne B. Wheeler. Men
just as able can be found but it will be
difficult to locate one ready to put as
much enthusiasm, energy and time into
the work. Many of the policies of Mr,
Wheeler we did not sanction but we are
ready to agree that he was honest, tire
less and effective. His salary was always
small'yet there has never been a hint
that a dollar of the cause money was ev
er misplaced; he was a fanatic in a sense
on prohibition and could not see the view
point of the other man, yet he was sin
cere with it all; and he labored many
years, with one of the finest organizations
in the world, for his cause. He will be
missed in prohibition circles.
HOW DEBTS HAVE CLIMBED CP.
The people of Craven County owe $16,000,000
and the total valuation of property according to
a late estimate is $26,000,000.
The debt part of the above statement is a broad
one to make, but a careful analysis of the facta
will bear this statement out, according to one
of our leading citixens, who has taken the trouble
to make -the estimate.
The county owes $ 2,000,000
The city owes 1,750,000
Loans of the banks to the people ... 5[<)00!000
State debt (Craven’s part) 150,000

The property of the people of Craven Onlnty
