C, under the act of March B, 1879. ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORTS F1MADY. JUNE 22, 1917 ' MAIN STREET MATTER ,S?vtral persons have suggested t thy Record that it register a protob, against the widening of Main street tind the eventual elimination of the tree in Union park, but as the ea. tor of thi paper was at the meeting or council when the action was decid ed upon, and did not raise any ob jetton at that time, this paper has not felt that it should protest now Th? need of n wider street is obvious, in the opinion of council, and the widening of the street was decided upon reluctantly. Hundreds of au tomobiles park in Main street, it is natural for persons with businea down town to desire a convenient place for their automobiles, and they want to place their cars where they are easy to reach. Other cities have had to provide parking space in the center of th business district. The objection to the widening of Main street is based on the destruc tion of the trees for the conveni ence of persons owning automobilss. They say that the park is a pretty spot in the center of town and n should be prevented as long as possi ble. Council of course is not averse to hearing objections. The members said the other night that the street would have to be widened about 10 feet in the interest of safety. WVrk has not begun and if there is any way to avoid it, council will be glad to hear from citizens. .T Frank Morris of Winston-Salem elected president of the North Caro- Ppfail Merchants Association, is one of those live wires to be found in every community. He will maicc a good executive. it -Hickory is making a good start in ; J-fi ttAiir it Red Cross campaign. " name is not on the list, is there any .wwl wwison why? If there isn t Uw canvassers will be glad to enroll you. The nro-Oermans in congress hnu.ld behave as Mr. Webb did make their light on the major issue, and being beaten, lend their strengtn to the American cause. FOOD CONTROL AND CONGRESS THE A. 1. WINS The New York court of appeals has granted the full prayer of the As soeiated Tress, of which the Record is a member, against another news service restraining it from pirating news matter gathered by the'Asso ciated Press at great expense. So much of the exclusive news is handl ed first by the premier organization that it has been found profitable for another news service to pay operators and others at work on papers carry ing the Associated Press dispatches to furnish news that it sends out ove; its wires. The Associated Preas applied for relief. No other news service is so highly regarded as the Associated Preys and it has access to news that other agm cies must take at second hand. Nat urally it protested against securing news at tremendous cost and much pains only to have it swiped by an alleged competitor. Other mws services will continue to carry more wildcat stories, but the Associated Press will deliver the real news first, as alway; Snrin p-field Republican. r- --- - We are about to witness a terrinc fight in congress against the food control bill, according to the reports from Washington, and of course we ebnll see what we shall see. It woula event, to have the issue decided within the coming fortnight, on account of the movement of the eany crops nuw uc- Vmrvfistpd. If there is to be no control of foodstuffs, we might as well know the fact very soon; then each can look out for him self and may the uevii wkc hindmost. Nearly every natural country m Europe is watching the situation closely, in deep anxiety over its food imports from America. Norway has sent a commission here to arrange for food supplies. Holland is almost on the point of threatening us with some sort of relation perhaps on the wretched Belgians whom we feed tif its usual foodstuffs from Amer ica are not forthcoming. nAna .onii-rpsa realize that if the control of the food distribution agen cies is not vested in the president and the markets are left completely at the mercy of competitive bidding, there will be such a wua scramuie states, big and lit tle, which have commercial access to our ports, as we have never expenw. ced before? The world's available wVionf cnnnlv decreased bv about 50,- 000,000 bushels in the month of aMy as compared with a decrease or. oniv 12,315,000 bushels in tne same month last year. The new crop in North America is known to be eYinrt th Infest reDorts from Una- ,ia nnf. hpintr eneouraffintr. The nresont situation and the outlook are unprecedented in American history; there has never been anytnmg hkc these conditions in our experience as a fnod-nroduciner country. Such an emergency demands emergency meas ures. Members of conerress who have voted for the conscription of men's bodies in war assume a curiously in consistent position when they de nounce as an excessive grant of pow er such a measure of economic and social preparedness as food control. Which is the more dictatorial ana ty rannical to keep a food speculator wifViin hminda nr to take arbitrarily a boy and send him to a battlefield to be blown to pieces oy a nign-ex-plosive shell? Inasmuch as this congTess has approved of the con scription of human beings, it ought not to gasp at the thought of govern ment supervision of the commercial distribution of what they eat.

Accounts, Com- I a a naDDaaUDDDDDDDDElDDODDDDDnDDOIIiilliegxitJ Persons owning automobiles should read the circular that accompanies their license tags. They are not to put on the new number.', until July 1 under penalty of a fine. Dep uty sheriffs and other officers should ee to it that this law is upheld. Another matter that officers should investigate is the automobile that car ries the sign, "License Applied For. ' It is said that the state and councies ara forced to lose thousand3 ct dollars each year as a result of this device. Some people do not pay a Ho':n?e tax at all, while tbe fereat majoxity do so. It woul-J Le v til to investigate such automobiles. The administration's food control bill is destined to pass. The people back home are putting pressure on congressmen and senators and they can't stand squeezing. Food con trol is a good thing, and. if there 13 any possible chance that the farm era will not make good money, min imum prices should be fixed. That would be fair. The Houston Post says that a Houston pickle factory will buy all cucumbers undsr six inches. All ov er that length, this paper says, can be" shipped to New England, where they are regarded as watermelons and eagerly sought. The destruction of grain crops by sparrows is not much of course, but it is annoying. Some way of rid ding the country of these pests should be devised.
