Governor Hoey absolved the "union" of any blame, though one <>!" the m:iin objects of the moun taiiiee:.-' wrath was one of the union (Tganizers who bears the name of a .lohie Southerner. !». K. Lee. Lee is .-aid to have extracted dues many on the statement, upon which lie couldn't make good. that "all who joined tiie union will get jolv." When !:e couldn't deliver jobs promised, there was an immediate and irate reaction. The project is completely "union." but the other organizers went no lur liu . according to the governor, than to tell all applicants for jobs that they would have to join the union i:i oider to get employment. Governor hoey .-aid that a great deal of the resentment appears to have been caused by the fact that the company wa.s sending telegrams and sue ial messages to "outsiders", asking them to come and take jobs. These receiving these communica tions. he said, would often be pass ed through gates at which there stood local people who iu'ci ius' been told they couldn't go in because there was no work for them. This, he pointed out. naturally stirred resentment among groups who did not realize that the outsiders getting the jobs were getting only those fur which they were especially trained and which none of the locals couid com petently fill. Upshot of the whole affair seems now to be that the project will re sume operations as soon as it can recall those workers who were scared or "run" off by the disorders. Meanwhile the S. B. I. will con tinue a thorough investigation to de termine if there were, perhaps, sub versive influences interested in 1 inancing the trouble.

Nov. 27.—Tar Heel far I mers who are withholding soybeans , from market while waiting lor bet ; lei prices wen- today cautioned by Buxton White, marketing specialist of the State Department of Agricul ture. that there are slim prospects | of any increase in prices. North. Carolina's farmers will like ly sell approximately 2.200,000 bus hels this season. Prices are now about 20 cents higher than those prevailing five or six weeks ago at the opening of the market. Any 1'urlher advance, however, is likely to be checked by strong com petition from peanuts and cotton I seed as sources of oil and meal. White said. Besides that, the loss of European markets is a handicap which cannot be overlooked. Then. too. any reduction in soy bean production will be more than offset by increased yields of pea nuts and cotton seed. "Despite the decrease in soybean production in iho country, which has been reported at more than 10 per cent." said White, "farmers are ex pecting 33 per cent boosts in peanut orodtiction and 10 per cent increase in cotton seed, all of which more than offset the soybean reduction." Commenting on the tendency to withhold the beans while waiting for better prices White declared: "This practice cannot be continu ed with any certainty of future price increases and farmers will be wise to follow closely price trends and to study market news reports and Chicago Exchange quotations look ing toward disposition of the 1940 crop at a favorable exchange." "North Carolina soybeans are now being sold for processing in competi tion with the beans produced in mid western states where average yields are about double those in this state j and where oil content is about 2n I per cent higher. Our beans last year I showed a moisture content of about I 14.5 per cent compared with 10 to 12 i per cent for Illoinis and Indiana." Capital Gossip By HENRY AVER1LL. Raleigh, Nov. 27.—North Carolina I motorists seem to have caught the ; spirit of starting early lor Christ mas. At least, they have already be gun the holiday holocaust on the highways. Every paper is full of accounts of deaths and injuries and crashes. Over tiie past week-end ; almost a dozen fatalities were re corded. Governor Hoey has appealed to Tar Heels to go a bit slower; the Highway Gaiety Division is working its level oe.-t to impress the neces sity for a bit i.lore care in driving; and the National Safety Council is adding its voice in an effort to check accidents oil the Christmas list. Each year, the Council points out in a release from its Chicago head quarters, the Christmas spirit of | "Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men" undergoes an ironic transfor mation. It is converted by the very geniality and excitement of the holi day season into suii'ering and sor row through wholesale slaughter 011 | the streets and highways.. Thirty-two national organizations are joining the Council in the drive, which has a two-fold purpose: Not only is it aimed at tiie olight on the Christmas happiness, but it is a last ditch fight t.i keep traffic fatalities this year from soaring far above 1939. , : | i\orth Carolina's safety chiefs say the same conditions confront this j state. During the first part of the | year there was a \"ery noticeable > falling off in highway deaths; but | the gains have been completely wiped out by recent bloody crashes. I October was particularly gruesome, and early November improvement | went a-glimmering with the fear ful toll of the last week-end. ••We hope everyone will enlist in tiii-: campaign", says Ronald Hocutt, safety director. "Certainly there is no better way of expressing Christ mas spirit than by sparing others the grief of a traffic accident." Dr. J. S. Dorton. who has direct ed the State Fair here for the past four years and who has kept it "in the black" every time, will speak 011 the program of the annual con vention of the International Asso ciation of Fairs and Expositions at Chicago Monday. His subject will be "Moderniza tion of the Fairs." He plans to put particular stress on lighting. The Albemarle office has report ed to headquarters of the North Carolina State Employment Service that it recently look the registration of a woman whose only work ex perience consisted of breaking eggs for a bakery products company. The application explained that hers wasn't the only unusual ac cupation. either. The next worker's duty in the products company's ac tivity consisted of "smelling eggs."' Chief Justice W. P. Stacy intimat 'ed to attorneys in the High Point I power case Tuesday that the Su jpreme court jurists are very well acauainted—not to say "fed up"— 1 with the Ions drawn out battle over the proposed Yadkin county power j project. When W. S. Robinson, chief coun sel for the Duke Power company, hacked by Judge Deal, of the Hfeh Point legal staff, asked about ex tending time for arguing the case when it is called this week, the chief rather tartly remarked "we are fa miliar with that matter, maybe \vp can get through in the regular time."

Nov. 27.—Best indications iit this writing are that the labors of a wet-dry "mountain" in ilic Gen eral Assembly are quite likely to bring nothing more than a fortified wine "mouse." In other words. upstioi of all the i efforts of prohibitioni.-ts is not likely to be more than an act putting sale of fortified wines—perhaps wines of all kinds—under jurisdiction of the vari ous county ABC boards. Thai would be something oi a hol low victory for the dry as a bone element: bui would be more than J satisfactory to the ABC counties, to ABC advocates in many counties J now legally dry. and to the beer in terests which are making a desper ate effort to disassociate themselves from all forms of hard liquor. The most ardent prohibitionists might not like it. but ikey certainly couldn't logically object to it. From lime to time there have been reports that the drys will be in po sition to force a real battle over a statewide referendum: but the fact is that the W. C. T., U. has never seen fit to release any figures on its legislative poll, except a statement listing as "dry" an overwhelming proportion of those who replied to a questionnaire. But in the absence of information as to the actual number of replies, that statement was worth | less on its face. A survey of legislative personnel, based on previous voting records, known inclinations and general I knowledeg of the lawmakers, indi ; cates very strongly that it would : take nothing less than the most ter ! rific pressure to get favorable action j from them on any proposal to sub mit the question to the people. That pressure isn't going to be : supplied by Governor J. M. Brough I ton, according to all available infor I mation. though the next chief exe ! cutive hasn't said anything about it | publicly. Where any such pressure would | come from, therefore, is hard to di.s I ;;over. There seems little doubt that ! the state as a whole would vote dry I if the matter were ever sumnitled. i but that's an entirely different thing j from getting a referendum bill j through both houses of the legisla I ture. The 26 ABC counties, of course. ' will bitterly fight any such proposal; | and they will be joined by western ! law makers who do not want to stir ] up a hornet's nest and give the Re of a soft spot in his heart for the Department of Labor (which is gen erally regarded as something of a red-headed stepchild of the State government). His father was the first chief clerk (a position now known as Deputy Commissioner) to the first j Commissioner or Labor, the late W. |N. Jones. publicans a going issue. Almost everybody, however, is likely to gang up on the present law permitting tin- al • ot fortified wines, up t<> "1 per cent alcohol, in ;il! sorts ol store.-' :• li over the state. The ACC supporters know th.e sale of wine oi this strength is out ting into the revenue of the liquor stores. Those legislators who favor liquor stores but who come from dry counties, feel that there'll be a much better chance for a wet vic tory it hard liquor—and that's just what 2i per i -nt wine is—were not quite so i\ v to get. The prohibit ov ists proh . s to be agahist every form of alcohol and therefore couldn't fight against a ban on wino. The beer intcivsts would not only be re lieved of some competition but would feel a liii'.e oit les:- apprehensive of public condemnation if there were 110 high powered wine on sale. Incidentally. Dr. Gallup—whose four per cent margin of error played some part in electing Roosevelt - ins conducted a recent prohibition poil and reports that dry sentiment is on the decline in every section of the country. He gives no specific figures on North Carolina, but he reports that the South, which was exactly 50-50 on the prohibition question in January is now 5(i-4+ opposed to con stitutional aridity. E. C.
