PAGE TWO ROOSEVEi I MOVES .Wealth Tax and Aid to Youth Cited; President’s Course Mystery By CHARLES P. STEWART Central Press Staff Writer Washington, July 2. —President Rqosevelt’s newly created National Youth administration (NYA) repre sents another leaf torn oet of Sena tor Huey P. Long’s book. It may not be exactly the King fish’s idea, at that. The Kingfish thought at first that the presidential "share our wealth’’ concept might be identical with his own. Now he says it is too weak an imitation to possess any possibility of accomplishing the desired result. He may have the same thing to say of the president’s plan to help America’s young folk, soon to be graduated or already graduated from school. DIGGING UNDER HUEY However,/ it is a fact that the White House cut a certain amount of ground from under the senator’s feet by the launching of its distribu tive taxation program. It also is a fact that the Louisiana statesman was a pioneer campaigner in behalf of the nation's youth. To dgiy it has lost something of its pep by reason of the fact that the presi dent definitely has taken the matter in hand, with Assistant Federal Em. ergency Relief Administrator Au brey Williams a s its director, Assist ant Treasury Seiretary Josephine Roche as head of its administrative board, and with 50-millions, out of his 4,880-million-dollar work-relief fund, to operate on • All this costs the Kingfish a modi cum of his thunder. He can complain, of course, that presidential measures are inadequate, but to complain that they are inade. quate is not so effective as to scream that the White House is doing noth ing at all. LEFT OR RIGHT? To just what extent President Rooseveit is satisfying progressives with his latest policies is problematic as yet. After tacking for some time in a direction which many of them spoke of as decidedly to the right, they gen erally admit that he seems at pres ent to be tacking noticeably to the left. They likewise admit that they don’t know exactly what to make of it. Neither do conservatives. But as the the liberals, or progres sives, or radicals, or whatever one chooses to call them — A faction of them is working des perately to put a third party ticket into the field next year. Another fac tion holds that the president is ad vanced enough. They are split. Free Road to Mt. Mitchell Is Next Goal ! (Continued from Page One.)! Manteo to confer with Dare county commissioners with regard to remov ing tolls from the last toll bridge in the State —the Dare county bridge leading from the Nags Head highway across to Roanoke Island. Negotia tions have already been completed for the purchase of the Wright Mem. otial Bridge by the State Highway and Public Works Commission and the tolls will he taken off that bridge the night of July 3, so that it will be free to the public the morning of July 4. Chairman Waynick also hopes that the tolls may be removed from the Dare county bridge at the same time and the statel thus remove all tolls from the last 'remaining toll bridges at this time. . But it is still necessary to pay a heavy toll to drive over the road lead ing from Black Mountain to the top of Mount Mitchell, since this road is still privately owned. It is also a one way, At; jh thd morning dnfii* and : qnfy in the afternoon. ! Mtay believe ft is just as essential to nave a free road to the top of Mt. Mitchell as to have free bridges to the fbeache s in the east and Chairmna PHOTOPLAYS Stevenson THEATRE f< Every Seat A Cool Retreat.” LAST TIMES TODAY One of the World’s Greatest Romances jGene Strattor Porter’s , “KEEPER OF THE BEES” —with — Betty Furness— / Neil Hamilton— Added: Pop-Eye Pathe Nws Novelty TOMORROW ONLY James Dunn ' —ill— i “Daring Young Man” Coming—Thursday Woolsey Wheeler —in— “ The Nit Wits” Tomorrow’s Guests: Mrs. C.

State Highway 103, leading from Marion to Micaville and Burnvilie, runs within about five or six miles of the top of Mt. Mitchell and peo ple of that section have long wanted the State Highwaj r Commission to build a State highway on the top of this mountain and to the State park on its summit which cannot now be enjoyed unless people can afford to pay the excessive tolls on the toll road. Some believe that those who are financially Tnterested in the toll road have been active in fighting any move for a free, state highway to the top of Mt. Mitchell. But Chairman Way nick spent almost a week last week up in Yancey county and at the Stat* Game Refuge maintained by thee De partment of Conservation and De velopment on the South Toe river, on ly about five miles from the top of Mt. Mitchell. As a result Chairman Waynick for the first time came into_ direct con tact with this particular section and had a first-hand opportunity to study the needs and see the possibilities of this section. At the present time there, are two National Forest Service foot and horse trails leading from the State Game refuge to the top of Mt Mitchell and the forest and gam* wardens tramp over these trails al most every day or ride over them on horseback. But there are thousands of people who would like to visit the top of M.t Mitchell who do not feel able to make the long hike to the top or even to ride up it on horseback. These people would like to see a state highway built to the top so they could drive up in their automobiles. "There certainly should be a state highway to the top of Mt. Mitchell and I am going to make a personal survey of the two routes that now seem to be the most feasible,” Chair, man Waynick said on the eve of his departure for Manteo. "I was not up there long enough to go over these routes in detail but I want to go ..back up there within the next week or two in the hope that we can at once start locating a route for a state highway to the top. Mt. Mitchell is one of our greatest scenic wonders in North Car olina and we should make it acces sible to all who want to visit it.” Bill To Regulate Utilities Passes House 323 To 81 (Continued from Page One.) with the skeletonized NRA and the Federal Trade Commission to carry out with industry voluntary code agreements supplanting the code structur eoutlawed by the Supreme Court.

The exact opening of the store in Rocky Mount had not been determin ed, the official said, although the opening was expected in “a few days.” The liquor supplies have been sent to Tarboro and Wilson. The store will be located on Wash ington street, a block from police Headquarters, half a block from the post office, a block from main street, and opposite a drug store.

Down in Rocky Mount, where a railroad bisects the main street and is th dividing line between Nash and Edgecombe counties, a peculiar sit uation may arise soon.

She began to trernb'e. "What shall 1 do?” she muttered. Her head turned from side to side llhe a small bewildered animal to pain, her dazed eyes circled the room. Then as her frantic gaze fastened on Val she uttered a pitiful cry and flung toward him. "Val! Make him say he lied to frighten me! You’ve always taken care of me. Make him take back what he said ” He put his arms about her. What else could he do? Over her dark head he stared at Garenne’s sudden ly bent shoulders. The man had lost »i) his fire —he had grown old in the passing of a moment. Val, himself, felt like one who, half-numbed, wanders about in a dense fog. From the shelter of his embrace Lia mur mured meaningless, broken sen tences. H Then, abruptly, he felt her stiffen and lean back, her eyes wide with a fresh terror. * “Opal!” she whispered. “She al ways listens! She must have heard! Oh Val, she’ll tell everyone! Every one will know and they’ll make fun of me! They’ll laugh " He held her tightly, trying auto matically to quiet her despair. Over and over she pleaded, “Don’t let them laugh at me! Don’t let them!” Not let them! But people were bound to know. He fought to stem the sense of humiliation that coursed through him. Hereafter, he would be a marked man. Pointed out as the chap with the Chinese wife! Beads of perspiration stood out on fcto forehead. His face was gray, his mouth bloodless. He didn’t love her, Bor she him. "* Why should this hy brid fasten herself to him now that her pride had been smashed? Her head had been pressed close to his shoulder, but suddenly she leaned back to look beseechingly up at him. And as he gazed down at county liquor control, and a store will be opened soon, as liquor is already on hand for sale. Nash county will vote on county control Saturday. "In. my opinion, if a citizen of Nash county buys liquor at an Edgecombe store before Nash votes wet, if it votes wet, and carries it back into Nash, he will violate the Turlington act,” Seawell said. “If a citizen of a dry county buys whisky in a wet county and carries it home to the dry territory, he also will violate the law, in my opinion.” One of the two local wet laws pur portedly allows transportation of four quarts of whisky in the State, but Mr. Seawell holds this applies only to the counties which vote wet. Some law yers contend it applies to the entire State.

He offered comparisons of prices paid for the 1933 and the 1934 bright the bleak dereat In the small twisted face, he knew that the girl he had lately coine to understand—the ruth less little creature who could take care of herself—had been destroyed by her father’s disclosure. Lia’s faith in herself, all of her pride and assurance, were dead. One with her background and upbringing could only loathe the thing she found in herself —tainted blood. He thrust back his own despairing repugnance. For now. Lia was just what she had pretended to be in the beginning: Helpless without love terribly afraid In the face of this crush ing humiliation he could not desert her. There was nothing to do but stand by. Suddenly he held her shoulders in his two strong hands and he spoke slowly as to a terrified child. “Every thing will be all right. Lia.” he told her. “I am here to look out for you. No one will laugh. I’ll take care of you just as long as you want me to.” From the moment she had been stricken to tearless misery by her father’s appalling disclosure, Lia had cringed in Val’s arms. And now when Garenne started to speak again, the young officer felt the girl’s overtaxed nerves quiver frenziedly before the voice that had slashed to shreds every atom of her pride and self-assurance. Val silenced the man with a warn ing gesture. “I’ll hear what you have to say later,” he said, his tone harsh. Then he picked Lia up and, carrying her into the next room, lowered her to the bed. After he had gone to close the door he stood for a space, his mind groping uncertainly. Her tears had always hurt him but now her dry eyed despair tore at his heart. He began to pace the room, a hand pressed to the back of his head. If he could only get hold of himself — stop seeing all this as some fantastic nightmare! It was real enough, too real!

From the iiving room came the sound of Garenne's restless footfalls as he, too. walked the tloor. Why in the name of all that was decent, Val demanded of himself, hadn’t the man told Lia the truth when she was a child instead of waiting to strike her down like this? Was it so terribl® that the blood of an alien race raa in her veins? He was answered by the uncontrollable shudder of repul sion along his spine. A faint murmur drew him to the girl's side. The dusk was beginning to creep into the room but in the half tight he could see that she lay motionless, staling at her upraised hands. Presently she slowly pulled back her sleeve to regard with hoi ror the honey-gold smoothness ®f her flesh. As if to herself she mut tered in a flat monotone, "Aunt Julia Lee always knew. This was why sh« disliked me, why w ? e lived so much alone.” Her eyes, black pools of despair, gazed at her hands again. She whis pered dully, “Everyone will say, ‘She was so proud of her family—she boasted of her royal blood. But imagine the irony when she played at being Chinese, then found sh® really was one.’ ” A shudder shook her. "And they will laugh! I shall be like Donna Sandre.

Oh, it was ghastly! If I had been Donna I couldn’t have borne it. And now they will gossip and stare and whisper like that wherever I go. And they’ll always laugh.
