Meekins, who yester day ruled that compulsory Federal grading and inspection of tobacco on North Carolina markets was uncon stitutional, said today he pi obably would issue within a few days an or- J der restraining continuance of the service at four of Oxford’s ware houses. He held that the program as ad ministered by the Federal Depart ment of Agriculture was discrimina tory in that it provided for com pulsory grading on only four of North Carolina’3 two score markets. He held that Congress was attempt ing to legislate on powers not granted it by the Constitution, and pointed out that tobacco was not in interstate commerce until it was sold on ware house floors. Operators of four of these seven warehouses of the Oxford market brought the suit testing the law.

No Sign Yet Os Break In Sea Strike San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 6. —(AP)— The Pacific coast maritime strike en trede its second week today with no sign cf a break in its paralyzing grip. Assistant Labor Secretary Edward F. McGrady, unable to bring peace between ship ownern and 37,000 strik ing union workers, booked air line passage for a return to Washington. At least 150 vessels were strike bound in west coast ports. Sympathy walk-outs hampered shipping in ma jor ports of the Atlantic and Gulf areas. Spoko-smcm for both sides expressed belief that intervention by President j Roosevelt was necessary. Fears of food shortgae were renewed in Alaska and Hawaii, partially isolated by the •strike. McGrady denied he would seek in tervention of President Roosevelt who was expected to attend a meeting of his cabinet today. Alaskans, fearing a food shortage, v > re reported bombarding the White House with telegrams asking aid. The steamer Northland, with 200 tons of food supplies aboard, sailed from Juneau for Seattle after efforts to un load her were unsuccessful. Chapel Hill Group Defends Ericson’s Dining With Negro Charlotte, Nov. 6. (AP) The Southern Committee for People’s Rights, a Chapel Hill organization, re opened the recent controversy over 'he dinner Dr. E. E. Ericson, of the University, had with James Ford, Nc communist, in letters received ho re today. The letters, said by Mrs. Elizabeth Winston Malcombrey, of Chapel Hill, !f| have teen intended solely for mem bers and not for publication, were re '' ived by J. E. Dowd, editor of the f 'narlotte New 3, and two members of thp. News staff, all of whom said they were not members. The letter was strongly critical of newspapers which disapproved Eric son’s act in attending a dinner in Ford’s hotel suite after the Com munist vice-presidental candidate had •hiado a campaign appearance in Pur HrttSSTlatm Daily Dispatch ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN THIS SECTION OF NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRUINIA LEASED WIRE SERVICE njp THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Ruling Postponed For Stork Derby Toronto, Nov. 6 (AP)—Mr. Jus tice Middleton put over today un til November lu further action on clause nine of the famous Millar will after eighteen mothers, num erous next of kin and the gov ernment of Ontario all had made representations as to how the strange legacy to “the most proli fic mother” should be disposed of.

ELECTION CREATES BIGPROBLEMSFBR NEXILEGIMH Interpreted as Mandate, Chiefly, To Inaugurate State Social Secur ity Program FIVE AMENDMENTS ADD DIFFICULTIES Income Tax Hike To Bring Tremendous Battle Be tween Left Wingers in As sembly and Big Business in State; Full Home Exemp tion Now Expected Doily Dispatch Bureau. In the Sir Waiter Hotel. By .1. C. Raleigh, Nov. 6.—The people of North Carolina have plumped a big batch of business into the lap of Gov ernor-elect Clyde R. Hoey and the 1937 General Assembly a3 a result of the tremendous Democratic vote in the State Tuesday and especially as a result of the apparent adoption of all five of the proposal constitutional amendments, according to opinion here today. The tremendous vote in the State both for President Roosevelt and for Mr. Hoey, and the entire State ticket, is being interpreted, in the first place as a blanket approval of the New Deal program in Washington and as a mandate for the State administra tion to get into line, especially with ! the New Deal social security prog : ram, from which North Carolina So far has shied off. There is no doubt that the people of North Carolina now i expect Governor-elect Hoey and the 1937 General Assembly to do some thing definite and to do it quickly about old age pensions, unemploy ment insurance, old age benefits and other features of the Federal social i security program and not to sit a round and dilly-dally, as the 1935 General Assembly did.

Mrs. Malcombre said the letter was sent not to revive public controversy over the Ericson case, but in an ef fort to enlist new sponsors and new members of the committee.

BABSON, Copyright 1936, Publishers Financial Bureau, Inc. Babson Park, Mass., Nov. 6. The question on everybody’s lips today is: “Does President Roosevelt’s landslide mean continued good business in the next one or two years? The vast ma jority would answer the question in the affirmative, of course, or the President’s victory would not have been so decisive. Business men and ! investors, who as a group were pro-' bably 80 per cent for Governor Lan don, even now are not convinced, how ever. Hence, it is to this group es pecially that this article is addressed. Effects of Other Elections. During recent weeks I have been studying the effects of past elections on business.

There is no reason why this election should be an exception to the basic rule: Politics do not make conditions, but rather conditions make politics.

For four years he has j contended with the uncertainty of con | stant reforms and experiments. Yet, I believe that many of these ! will prove to have been great forward i strides in our social progress.

The Federal as cy discontinued a proceeding brought by railroads in an effort to prove North Carolina’s ac tion was discriminatory against inter terstate shipments. North Carolina declined to grant the carriers a six months increase of the higher intrastrate rates after the I. C.

STEWART Central Press Staff Writer Washington, Nov. 6. —From politi cians, already beginning to drift back into Washington, with the presiden tial fight ended, one hears the quite frequent complaint that national cam paigns are too long. Just how they could be shortened, however, is not apparent. Conventions, of course, could be held much closer to election day. Party managers choose their dates. They c«uld choose "ate September and early October as readily as they do regularly choose late June and early July. No constitutional amendment would be required to effect the change. , . ..

I American Federation of Labor chieftains tentatively met plans to ask the next Congress to shift the whole social security payroll tax to employ ers instead of collecting part of it from workers as provided in the pre sent law. As Mr. Roosevelt came home to re ceive an uproarious greeting from throngs of Washingtonians, aides ex j peeled him to give renewed attention to the' problem of unemployment. This problem is linked directly with that of relief expenditures, which in turn bulk huge in the present unbal anced budget. In the effort to cut un (Continued on Page Four.) Cotton Mill Group Wamedßy Gardner To Abide Election Pinehurst, Nov. 6 (AP) —O. Max Gardner, former governor and now attorney for the Cotton Textile Insti tute, told the North Carolina Cotton Manufacturers Associatio ntoday that the industry must adjust itself to the public movement represented in the overwhelming re-election of President Roosevelt. He told the 800 delegates that he conceded the election result was a mandatp for the administration to continue its liberal policies, but as serted that “I do not subscribe to the theory that this government is going to be socialized.” The size of the vote given the Pres 8' PAGES , TODAY FIVE CENTS con GLAD HE CAN STAY FOUR YEARS MORE, PRESIDENT STATES Uproarious Welcome Given Executive on His Return Victorious From Campaign War STILL HAPPY OVER . BIG VOTE RECEIVED Cabinet Members, Other New Dealers, Thousands of Government Workers and School Children at Union Station; Plans Trip to Pan- American Parley Washington, Nov. 6 (AP) President Roosevelt stepped in to the arms ' of an uproarious welcome today as he came “home” victorious from the election campaign wars. Members of hi scabinet, others high in the New Deal, thousands upon thousands of government workers, school children and non-government al working men and women crowded into the railroad station and along flag-draped Pennsylvania Avenue to cheer a chief executive who had de clare he came back to “try to balance the buget, thereby carrying out the first campaign pledge.” Even as Mr. Roosevelt returned, however, he lA>ked forward to more travel. His aides held out a strong possibility that shortly he would dash by cruiser to Buenos Aires to open the Pan-American peace conference December 1. The Union Station crowd, estimated by Major Ernest W. Brown, sunerin tendent of police, at "well over 100 000” sent a cheer rolling for nearly a . lile as the President opened a brief ad dress with the familiar: “My friends." Smiling and obviously still happy over his landslide election victory, Mr. Roosevelt added: “I formed the very good habit of coming to Washington when I was five years old, and I am glad that habit will" not be broken during the next four years."
