If he wauls a scenic highway 'par

choose the North Carolina route, ail
the way. If he wants jufct anothei
highway, and (>olitical pull in Tenn

WHAT ABOUT BURRELL?
The body of Loiuiie Birrrell, citi
zen of this county, and patrolman on
the property of Dick Jennings, was
found til the Tuekaseigee river, Sun
day. The 'eoronor's jury found that
his death was by accidental .ch'own
i:ig. Now, two Hi ward physicians
ait the iV!|tiest of William K. Breese..
attorney for Jennings, announce that
there was no wafer in Burroll's lungs,
and that therefore lie , did not drown.
This brings about a complication.
Both the eoronor's jury and the Bre
vard doctors can't he right.
It is entirely possible that Barrel I
died accidentally, or by | natural
causes, and still did not drown. He
could have sul'feied a heart attack.
He could have slipped on the cliff
above the river, and suffered such
injuries as would have cause, d his
death before he reached the river.
According to officers id' this coun
ty, there was no suspicion among the
pevple of the neighborhood, .nor tin
fanlily of tike dead man that hi.
death was by other tluwi natitrh!
causes; but Mr. Jennings cviden'l;.
is not >atisfied lliat this is true, .else
lie wonhi not have had the body ex
amined by physicians.
THE CHURCHES AND PICTURES
*>
* The churches, Protestant, ( atholic,
and Jewish, in the I nite.il States,
have united in a drive to make th
moving pictures decent. I he tir-t
visible results ale the withdraw in.1.:
from application for -bowing in Nov
York State <?f two film*, one by
Waiiuer Brothers, featuring Lclores
Pel Ivio as ".Madam ilu Barry,** the
French ciuitresan. and the other by
Paramount Studios of Mae West,
along the line that ha- made her fa
mous. Both picture-, it i- said w:l!
be re-filmed and tamed down.*.
There has been a great to do in
this country about "moral bica?i-o
down." But what could be expected
what with the magazines, the movintr
picture.- and the theatre sending
forth a flood of filth to fec,d the
minds of the "young and the radio j
brining the most sensual kind <>1
rot into the homes of the., folk-,
daily, nightly, hourly, under the
guise of jazz, wlr'eh is to ..music what
the \trashiesf literature 'is to letters,
and which appeals to and stirs only
the lowest of human passion-, com
ing to us out of the jungle, through
the route of the underworld and
now attempt I'd to lie made respectable
through the theatre and tin* radio.
The churches and church jieople can
stop it, if they will, and with Pro
testant, Catholic, and Jewish leaders
agreed that it must stop, it can 'be
done, if this is not but another ges
ture, such as was made a few years
ago when Will Hayes was sent out,
from being chairman of the Rcjrtibli
' can executive committee, to make the
movies clean up.
Churches and parents" of Anwriea
can hold up the standard, if they
will; but will they?
