Some of the places at which Gover nor Ehringhaus appeared went Dem ocratic for the first time since 1860. The governor does not kid himself about his speeches; he merely claims credit for such sensitiveness to the popular feeling as to have been able to prophesy the Democratic victories in both Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Only three members of the commis sion were on hand when the biennial series of budget hearings started. Governor-elect Clyde R. Hoey, who GOVERNMENT SLOW IN MARINE STRIKE New Maritime Commission Not Well Enough Es tablished To Act By CHARLES F. STEWART Washington, Nov. 9 —Now that elec tion is over the Federal government undoubtedly will take energetically in hand the task of preventing future clashes between American ship own ers and maritime labor. It certainly is a Federal job; as much so as the business of govern mental mediation between employers and employes in the interstate trans portation industry ashore. If ocean shipping is international, its regula tion assuredly s a Federal proposition. Even if it is only coastal, most of it is interstate. Interstate railroad mediation has proven effective. Congress’ intention was to make maritime mediation equally so. NOT SOON ENOUGH The expectation was that the mari time commission, created at the last congressional session, would accom plish just this purpose. Unfortunately the commissioners were not appointed soon enough. Congress voted the commission shortly before the adjournment, near the end of June. It was specified that the commission was not to be permitted to begin functioning until 30 days after the presidential nam ing of its personnel. It already was known that the agreement under which the Pacific coast ship owners and maritime work Continued on Page Five.) FOR NORTH CAROLINA.

TEACHERS LIKELY FAVOR BROUGHTON 1 f L ■ * Mi. i. Raleigh Attorney’s 1940 Gubernatorial Campaign Gets Airing Dnily Dispatch Bureau, In tin* Sir Wsiltcr Hotel. By J. C. BASK Kit VIM. Raleigh, Nov. 9.—Ex-President J. Melville Broughton of the f State Bar Association seemed to be in high fa vor with the North Carolina division of the North Carolina Education As sociation here Friday and Saturday, and there are more signs that he will have their help if and when he gets into the running for governor in 1940. Mr. Broughton could have been on the spot, but he doesn’t get caught often. During the panel discussion of education, he took the position that teachers applauded from the floor. When one of the fiery prohibitionists animadverted upon the morals of a state which first puts a textbook con demning alcoholic drinks, then “opens ABC stores and brags about the taxes that they pay,” there was applause, but Mr. Broughton reminded the ex cited lady that the book in question deals with the effects of liquor, but not with the buying, selling or mak ing. He fancied that if a football play er foregoes the poison, not because it is sold by blind tiger rather than by the county, but because the stuff hurts footballing, education has made some gains. Dr. Ralph W. McDonald, who ran for governor this year, sat with the panel and he lamented the fact that 23,000 teachers seem to be unable to get as much done for themselves as 2,300 lawyers manage to get done for them. And Dr. McDonald is leaving the teaching profession. The discussion got nowhere politi- Continued on Page Two.) PUBLISHED EVERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY. Johnson also proposed salary boosts. Brower and Wade explained their projected increases were included on the assumption that the budget com mission would recommend a general salary increase to the legislature. “In view of the rapid increase in the cost of practically all items that go into the cost of living,” Brower ex plained, “we have merely assumed the 15 percent increase figure, and have included it in our requests.” HEARST LOSES OUT IN SENATE ACTION Court Holds It Has No Right To Shield Tele grams From Probers Washington, Nov. 9 (AP) —The United States Coiyt of Appeals ruled today in a suit brought by William Randolph Hearst against the Senate lobby investigating committee that courts are without authority to en join a congressional committee, Hearst appealed the case from a ruling by Chief Justice Alfred E. Wheat, of the Federal district court, refusing to enjoin the lobby commit tee from retaining and making use of Hearst telegrams taken from tele graph company files. The appellate court said, however, that the Federal Communications Commission, which furnished the Hearst telegrams to the committee, had acted illegally in supplying them to the Senate body. What the committee did after re ceiving them was not a matter for the courts, the opinion held. Hearst’s petition sought to enjoin the commission from giving any mes sages to the committee and to re strain the committee from using the messages it had received or from re ceiving others. Attorneys for Hearst announced im mediately they would appeal the case to the Supreme Court. DR. JOSEPH G.

BATTLE RAGES IN STREETS OF THE SPANISH CAPITAL (By the Associated Press). Insurgent shells rained today into Madrid’s “Times Square” wounding 30 persons as Socialist guards and Fascist snipers fought gun battles in the city’s streets. Furious fighting raged all along the Western and Southern sides of the capital.

The court held that the act pro vided for another legal procedure— appeal to the courts from board de cisions—and that that method should be followed. “It is clear,” the court held, “that no irreparable injury will ordinarily result from the procedure authorized by the act, and no special damage is charged in any of the bills.” The court did not pass upon con stitutionality of the act, which was held constitutional by Justice Jesse C.
