Ramblings

By Pat Nantz
On Sunday afternoon, Little
Ronnie Shell was sitting on the
porch, with his family. He seem
ed quite serious in the chewing
of some gum, that he had. No
ticing this, his grandmother ask
ed, “Ronnie, where did you get
that gum?” After considering
A this a while, Ronnie replied,
® “God gave it to me.’' “Then
ask Him to give me some,”
requested his grandmother. So,
Ronnie got out of the swing and
went to his grandfather to get
some gum. “No,” said his grand
mother, “Ask God for it.” Little
Ronnie turned this thought over
in his mind a few minutes and
then replied, “Ask Hi mfor your
own gum.”..
♦ There is no doubt about it...
Ministers can be mischeveous as
well as little boys. An example
of this is of the Methodist minis
ter in t%wn, who provided a
group of boys with a place to
play ball..The boys had been play
ing in the streets and because
they weren’t provided with a
leader, they gradually ended up
in the street again. Now each af
ternoon this same minister joins
•i* the street games nad the l al.'s
continue to be hit into peoples’
yards. Fearing ti at they will be
lit, the citizfns take cover when
the school disnussal bell rings.
The other af*crnoon, the game
was in full swing, when the ball
was hit int~, the yard of some
one who d >esn’t appreciate the
art of ball-playing....As the minis
ter carefully backed away, he in
structed the boys never to play
in the streets again. . . .
I have now found out mat \*e;
aren’t the only ones with so
many cats that it is almost im
possible to count them—Mrs. J.
W. Matthews informed me that a
good place to carry them is to
Hollister...She has carried a
mother cat and six kittens to
that same location...so if you re
sidents of Hollister have noticed
4 an increase of cats lately...don’t
be too surprised if a few more
are brought ir....
It must be something about |
Roanoke Rapids that makes peo
ple want to keep coming back...
I am referring to two certain
’48 graduate girls who entered
nurses training about three
weeks ago...They can’t seem to
stay away from our fair city for
f even one week-end. They are,
of course, Trilla Morgan, who is
taking her training in th^ Nor
folk General Hospital, in oik,
Va., and Shirley Draper, who is
getting her training at the Rex
Hospital, in Raleigh....I guess it
is hard to get used to staying
away from such a wonderful
plac^..you have to take it
gradually...
# A youn? lady was being escort
ed through a certain newspaper
office...It was one of those ex
ceptional moments when all the
teletype machines and typewrit
ers were silent for a few seconds.
As she listened intently to her
guide’s lecture the teletype ma
chines started up with one ac
cord....Startled, she jumped back
directly into the arms of a re
porter who happened to be pass
• ing. She apolpgized profusely
and explained that she had been
frightened by the sudden clatter

Uncle Toby—“Engaged to five
of the machines...“Think nothing
of it,’’ he replied, “May I show

Barkley Asks
Dixie Demos To
Forget Feuding
En Route With Senator Bark
ley, September 28—a(AP)— Dissi
dent Dixie Democrats pondered
today a plea by Senator Alben
W. Barkley that they lay aside
their political feuding and swing
in line behind nominees of “the
Democratic Party convention.”
Those nominees are Harry S.
Truman for president and Bark
ley for vice president.
Many Southerners don’t like
that ticket because of Truman’s
advocacy of anti-segregation leg
lislation and are supporting the
State’s Rights’ candidate, J.
Strom Thurmond, governor of
South Carolina.
It was to them that Barkley,
party troubleshooter, addressed
his plea for party unity, with
out which, he said, the South
would be at the mercy of the Re
publican Party which in the
past has demonstrated its lack
of interest in Dixie.
Standing bareheaded in an icy
rain, the 70-year-old Barkley told
an estimated 1,000 people in the
Asheville, N. C., ballpark last
night, that a vote for nominees
other than those named by the
party’s convention in Philadel
phia “is a vote for the Repub
lican nominees.”
And a look bacff to the ad
ministration of Herbert Hoover,
he said, should demonstrate what
to expect if the Republicans win
in November.
The crowd booed lustily at
mention of Hoover, but applaud
ed when Barkley referred to
Franklin D. Roosevelt as “a man
who knew and loved the South.”
He said Governor Dewey,
GOP presidential nominee, ac
tively opposed interests of south
in its fight for elimination of
discriminatory freight rates, and
accused the GOP - controlled
eightieth congress of having re
fused to finance development of
the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Tobacco Men
Seek Enel Of
Discrimination
Washington, Sept. 28—(AP)—
Tobacco growers, warehousemen
and exporters asked today that
something be done about what
they called discriminations
against American tobacco by
governments of European coun
tries who get aid from this coun
try.
With congressmen, they car
ried their plea to the State de
partment and economic coopera
tion administration.
The industry spokesman said
United States officials in Eur
ope have encouraged increased
buying of Greek and Turkish to
bacco by Denmark, Austria and
France, although those countries
prefer American tobacco.
“This,” they said, “will hurt
the entire American tobacco in
dustry.”
They reported the English
government plans to see that the
proportion of Balkan tobacco in
British cigarettes is doubled.
The Netherlands government,
they continued, has told manu
facturers there to use less Ameri
can togacco.
And, in Norway manufactur
ers have been told they will
have 33 per cent less American
tobacco for a year.
The tobacconists said that if
this keeps up the amount of
American tobacco going into 16
European countries can be re
duced by as much as one-half in
five years.
Leading tobacco men from
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Virginia, West
Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Ohio, Indiana and Missouri are
here to ask for immediate pro
tection of the industry in the in
ternational field.

Truman Slates
Major Speech
On 'Communism
By The Associated Press
President Truman headed into
Oklahoma today for a major
campaign speech on Communism
—a topic newly headlined by
congressional spy investigators.
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, al
ready on record with a prom
ised government “housecleaning”
of Soviet-minded workers, car
ried his GOP presidential drive
homeward through the North
west.
Mr. Truman’s handling of the
Comunist issue came under
double fire last night.
The House Un-American Acti
vities Committee described as
“completely inexcusable” what
it called the administration’s
failure to prosecute persons link
ed to a "Soviet espionage con
spiracy.”
“A complete and forthright ex
planation is due the American
people of the reasons for this
failure,” the Committee said in
a formal report.
The document demanded that
the president “forthwith” lift the
“iron curtain” which it said he
had drawn by barring “access”:
to the evidence in the files of the
executive branch of the govern
ment.”
Mr. Truman repeatedly has la
beled the Congressional investi
gations into Communist activities
a “red herring” to distract the
voters’ attention from the prob
lem of high prices, which he
blames on the GOP-controlled
80th Congress.
Dewey, meam/hile, outlined in
a Seattle address a nine-point
program to develop the nation’s
natural resources to provide
“more power to wage the peace.
He said America’s power-pro
ducing capacity will have to be
boosted almost 20 per cent to
meet increased demands. Dewey
stressed, however, that in the
development of the nation’s
rivers home rule should apply
and not the sweeping federal
controls he ascribed to the Ten
nessee Valley Authority.

Truman Gets Report From Smith
On Russian Problems; Ambassador
Says More Critical Now Than Ever
Aboard Truman Campaign
Train, Sept. 28—(AP)—President
Truman weighed a first hand ac
count from his ambassador to
Moscow today on gravely-deter
iorating relations with Russia.
Moving into Oklahoma City,
he carried on his political speak
ing campaign but maintained
constant communications with
Secretary of State Marshall.
And, Representative Rayburn
(D-Tex). Democratic spokesman
in the House, kept foreign po
licy to the forefront of the cam
paign.
Introducing Mr. Truman to a
hometown political rally at Bon
ham, Tex., the former speaker
pleaded against changing presi
dents now.
Rayburn’s talk followed Am
bassador Walter Bedell Smith’s
extra-ordinary conference with
the chief executive aboard the
campaign train in Texas. Smith
told reporters solemnly that re
lations with Russia “had never
been more critical than now.”
Smith, under questioning, said
Mr. Truman concurred in his
opinion, but asked the newsmen
to modify, his estimate of rela
tions with the Russians from
“never more critical” to “never
more serious.”
“Is there going to be another
war?” asked a reporter in an im
promptu news conference almost
as unusual as his flight to the
president’s campaign train at
Dallas for his report to the chief
executive.
lhe question, Smith said, was
much too “deep” for him. He
paused then, and added, “I do
not mean that we are trembling
on the verge. If we continue a
policy of firmness, patience and
determination, I do not think the
situation will reach the ulti
mate.”

Says Farm Price
Supports Keeps
Food Prices Down
Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 28—(AP)
—Without farm price supports,
food prices might be even higher,
I. W. Duggan, governor of the
Farm Credit Administration, said
here today.
In a speech prepared for de
livery before the annual joint
meeting of the Farmers Cooper
ative Exchange and the N. C.
Cotton Growers cooperative, he
declared:
“There is a rising tide of feel
ing that price supports are un
justifiable and that the consum
er not only has to pay for the
support in taxes but pay higher
prices for what he eats.
“The consumer never stops to
consider that farmers would
not have gone all out for pro
duction of crops and livestock if
there had been no price sup
ports.
“If we did not have support
prices the consumers probably
would be paying more for their
food than they are now.”

rrencn minuier
Says Agreement
Impossible
Paris, Sept. 28—(AP)—France
appealed to the United Nation*
today to end the Soviet blockade
of Berlin because the three west*
em powers have “exhausted ev«
ery possibility o fdirect agree
ment” with the Russians.
French Foreign Minister Rob*
ert Schuman, in a policy speech
to the General Assembly, said
the United States, Britian and
France had not found even “a
minimum of good will” in their
talks with “our Russian part
ners.”
Schuman spoke as the three
western nations prepared their
appeals to the Security Council,
formaly citing the blockade as a
threat to international peace and
security.
U. S. Secretary of State George
C. Marshall and British Foreign
Secretary Ernest Bevin confer
red during the morning on the
strategy the western ministers
will follow in the Security Coun
cil. Officials said the talk also
concerned the British-American
position and strategy in Germany
after the Berlin question is re
ferred to the Council.
At the same time, British and
American sources said, experts
of the three western countries
continued drafting the note to be
sent to U. N. Secretary-General
Trygve Lie either late today or
tomorrow. A French source said
the powers would deliver identi
cal notes to Lie early this after
noon, but this was believed to be
too optimistic.
headquarters, meanwhile, hinted
a Soviet surprise when the Big
Four dispute is argued in the
Security Council.
This usually reliable infor
mant said the Busisans will be
present in the council chamber
when Berlin is discussed and
"you will see what happens
then.”
Schuman, who spoke as the
United Nations faced the sever
est test of its turbulent history,
championed a return of a demo
cratic Germany to the family of
nations.
“A renewed Germany must
take her plaoe in democratic
Europe,” he said. “Deprived of
self-government, she must first
achieve her own internal re-ed
ucation and then take her place,
with her own special qualities,
among the European nations.”
The notes were drafted yester
day by special deputies on in
structions from their respective
foreign ministers—U. S. Secre
tary of State George C. Marshall,
British Foreign Secretary Er
nest Bevin and French Foreign
Minister Eobert Schuman. The
ministers decided Sunday to
break off direct negotiations with
the Bussians over the three
month-old crisis in Berlin.
The notes carry the label “ur
gent”, which means the three
western nations want the Securi
ty Council to consider their com
plaint on an emergency basis.
Acordingly, the Council is ex
pected to convene sometime
Thursday when the first .of what
undoubtedly will be a long and
bitter series of arguments will
be heard.
The three-power complaint
cites chapter seven. Article 3»,
of the U. N. Charter,concerning
threats to peace and security.
Under this section, the Security
Council is empowered to set
forth an interim, provisional set
tlement of the dispute and to call
upon the nations involved tt con
form to this temporary arrange
ment.
The Council also is authorized
to invoke economic and diplo
matic penalties against any state
it believes to be menacing the
peace. These measures can add
up to an economic blockade ol
the penalized nation. As a last
resort, the Council is empow
ered to use armed force to put
its decision into effect.
