Young’s Protest

other reason than that it has center
ed the attention of the State on elec
tion morality.
There were found in Johnston
enough instances of abuse of the ab
sentee ballot to make opponents of
that kind of voting sit up and begin
to yell again; but in general the
Johnston case has pointed the finger
at need better observance of exist
ing rather than at any crying
need for reform of the laws them
selves.
The loser in the recount of State
Senate ballots, J. B. Benton, of Ben
son, is coming in for quite a bit of
praise from political figures here for
the fine spirit in which he accepted
the result. Through his attorney,
Norman Shepherd, Mr. Benton was
first to congratulate Mr. Wellons and
wish him success in the general elec

is on terms of such bitter hostility.
Still, with his record as a conciliator,
I think he might bridge even tha*
gap.
However, McGrady is a radio ex
ecutive today. It probably would be
a dickens of a financial sacrifice to
him to accept a government appoint
ment.
He is the kind of chap to make sac
rifices for thd general good—but there
are limit’s with all of us.
Senator Wagner?
Senator Robert F. Wagner of New
York also is suggested.
Wagner would fill the' till from
united labor’s standpoint. And I sur
mise that capital might indorse him
—not enthusiastically, but so-so.
The drawback to Wlagner is that, in
order to become wage-hour adminis
trator, he would have to retire from
the Senate. One would suppose that
he would have better judgment than
to relinquish a comparatively peace
ful Senate seat for so awful-promis
ing a place as that of wage-hour ad
ministrator.
Others.
Others spoken of are:
Leon Henderson, formerly of th<
with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Vander Meek
of Midland Park, N. J., and his girl, Lois Stewart
of Scranton, Pa. Johnny set down the Boston Bees
in his first hall of fame attempt and then the
Brooklyn Dodgers in a night game.
When It Rains,
It Is Still Dry
You may believe this or not, but
Frank Gupton, Middleburg con
stable vouches for it, and here’s
his story:
On I. J. Jackson’s farm at Mid
dleburg, there is a spot about 20
feet square, where, after all of the
big rains had here recently, one
may still kick up dust in the field
Gupton said, in fact, one could
mire through the field to the spot,
then get his feet dusty walking
across it. The plot has been in the
field for sometime, according to
Constable Gupton.
NRA’s economic staff, now WPA
economist.
Isador Lubin of the bureau of labor
economics, cfepartment of labor.
Professor Harry A. Millis, Chicago
university economist and mediator in
many capital-labor controversies.
Merel Vincent, counsel for the In
ternational Indies Garment Workers.
Lloyd Garrison, dean of Wisconsin
Law school.
Practical Men Scarce.
These folk might be all right as
economists —‘theorists.
They are not in a class with a prac
tical workingman like Ed McGrady,
who started life at the feeding end
of a printing press.
The point is, however, that theore
tical economists are available.
They want government jobs.
The practical folk graduate into
more profitable positions and simply
cannot afford to be governmentalized.

GRANGE MASTER FOR
TRANSFER OF FARM
Dally DlMpntch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Raleigh, June 18.—Harry B. Cald
well, of Greensboro, master of the
North Carolina State Grange, termed
the proposed transfer of the State
Prison farm property near C&ty, tc.,
the N. C. Experimental Station fox'
research purposes “one of the imme-|
diate needs of an agricultural
that is shamefully lacking in dairy
cows and livestock generally.”
Backing the executive committee oi
the Grange, which unanimously wen*
on record favoring the transfer of th'-
prison property near State College
“for dairy and livestock research,”
Caldwell said that “Tar Heel Farmery
have taken losses on cotton and oth
er crops too long, and with the d
versification that is virtually man
datory under the present crop con
trol program, it is essential that wo
look for other fields for farm rev
enues,” adding that probably our ihest
field is livestock.”
Praising research leaders for the
progress already made in promotion
of livestock, the Grange master said
that “the fact that North Carolina;
ranks 38th in cash income from live
stock and livestock products still con
fronts agricultural leaders as a chal
lenge and the appropriation of fur
ther research lands will assist ma
terially in finding an answer to this
economic problem.” <
Reiterating his stand in favor of the
land transfer, Caldwell said that “this
property is ideally located, adjacent
to the Central Experiment Station
property and ‘in walking distance’ for
dairy and research workers,” adding
that “the returns the state will re
ceive, if this property is given to re
search, is inestimatable.”
“Crop control measures and other
assistance fox' farmers is still regard
ed as ‘emergency legislation’ ” he
said, “But if North Carolina hopes tc
become mroe independent, research
and livestock promotion must be fur
ther encouraged.”
