SPRING IS HERE!
Spring i: here! Spring is here!
Call the birds from all the trees;
Little child, dry your tears
In the soft, sprii g breeze. |
For it is the glad spring time,
And the bluebirds' hour for rhyme.
Spring i:> here! Spring is here!
All the birds are glad.
Everyon* should be cheery
And nor e should be sad.
The lovdy spring is here,
Won't you help us spread good cheer!

All the birds are singing
''Spread our good cheer!"
All our voices ringing
I "Spring is here! Spring s here!"

B. C. Grindstaff
For a quarter of a century or more
B. C. Grindstaff was one of the leading
and most influencial citizens of
Sylva r.nd Jackson county. A man
of generous disposition, Mr. Grindfltaff
gave liberally of his time and
his money to promote educational,
religious and civic causes here. He
had the distinction of being, perhaps,
America's leading authority on mica,
and as such his business carried him
hither and " yon about the country,
where he made friends, and at the
time retained his old ones.
He was a valuable man in Western
North Carolina, and will be greatly
missed.
THIS WEEK IN
WASHINGTON
Washington, \pril 27 (Autocaster)
? Opinions differ, in and out
of Congress, a to the probable efficacy
o.' President Roosevelt's new
recovery program, as set forth in
his message to Congress and his
r\%rr\-r? 4 rtrv
114 vo*u^ v. 11cx i u v ci wild i auiu wiic:
same right. There is no material
difference of opinion, however, on
some related points. Much satisfaction
is expressed here over the fact
that the Administration now clearly
recognizes that the nation is in a
serious depression; and even the
President's most bitter opponents
are gratified at the temperate tone
of his written message and of his
radio talk.--.
The new program advocated by
the President is threefold. It provides
for the continuance of relief
measures, the expansion of bank
credits and means of providing new
work in which a large variety of
industries will share. Coupled with
j- the recent authorization to the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation
to lend up to a billion and a half
more to business of all kinds, with
fewer restrictive conditions than in
I the past, it is the conviction in Administration
circles that the Presim
dent's new plan will do the trick,
stem the tide of depression and start
the country off again toward the
avowed goal of 80 billion dollars oi
annual income.

.niiiion more for the C.C.C., seventy k
. 3'
five millions for the National Youth 3
Administration and 175 millons adriiticncl
for the Farm Security Ad- ?
t'siinistration. The inclination o; I
Congress is to go along with tht I
President on this part of his pro- I
*ram, and on that part of it calling I
or great expenditures for publi I
vorhs, pro\ ided Congress can hav
, i say as to how and where thes
expenditures are to be made. Grati
I ied as Congress is that the Presi- I
I fhic rase did not attempt t<
ICI 11 tlx
ssuo a peremptory order for the
legislation he desires, the boys or
Capitol Hill are inclined to be verj
ragey about giving Mr. Roosevell
another blank check. Much of the
recent rebellion in Congress against
the Administration has been due to
the discovery that when they have
voted a lump sum to be used at the
President's discretion they were putI
ting a weapon into the hands of the
Executive which could be usei effectively
to discipline the Legislative
branch of government.
Nothing has been more bitterly
I rc-s c-nted by the general run of ConVivssrncn
and Senators than the
! .-pcetacle of Governors and Mayors
j lin'ng up at the White House to beg
1 i': i allotments ol' oublic works funds,
i * '
j ?n.*-t?ad 01 coming to the Capitol to

funds expended in his home district.
Fight for Pi estigs
That is why they are scrutinizing
very closely the President's proposals
that they appropriate another
450 millions for the Public Works
Administration, 37 millions for flood
I
jcontrol wore, 25 millions for public
I buildings, Treasury loans of 300
j millions to the Housing Administrat
on and a billion public works
? loans to slates and their political
J subdivisions. Tnc-y want to have the
say as to what states and subdivisions,
including Congressional dis]
I riots, these huge sums are to be
spent in, rather than to hand over
flump sums which might, cor.eeivlably,
be used to gain more credit for
the Executive and to discredit members.
of tne Legislative branch whe i
i
hjjve opposed any part of the Ex- j
ecutive's program.
Therefore there is a strong chance
that these new recovery appropriaii
urUfH without be
tions win nui k^v- ?
in? "ear-marked" for specific purposes
in specific localities, thus reasserting
again the independence of
Congress.
That is still the real issue. Congress
having found that a strong
body of public opinion is back of it
in refusing any longer to take orders
from the White House without protest,
is inclined to maintain and
strengthen its position of independence.
It wants to go along with
the President in every feasible plan I
for economic recovery and the general
welfare, but it is more insistent
than for years in forming its own
judgments on whether a particular
program will work or not.
Letter Stirs Trouble
The tax bill is a case in point.
* ?u:^u
The Senate passed a diii wmui, m
its judgment, removed some of the
major obstacles in the way of business
recovery, namely the undistributed
surplus tax and the excessive
capital gains tax. The House had
modified those to some extent but
had retained their principle in the
tax bill which it passed. A confer!
er.ee committee was engaged in trying
to reconcile the differences and
agree upon a compromise, when Mr.
Roosevelt took a hand with a letter
requesting that the House provisions
on those points be retained. The
Senate conferrees were insistent
upon their position, and considerable
resentment of Executive interference
in a purely 'Legislative matter is being
shown by members of both houses.
What may be done about the
President's recommendation for a
" - 1 '
wage-ana-nrj*ur uni lenicuna iu
seen. The House committee has reported
a bill which aims toward the
eventual estabishment of a fortyhour
week with a minimum wage of
tarty cents an hour by statute. Best
opinion here is that it will not be
passed at this session. On the rest
of the President's new proposals,
such as removing the exemptions
from income taxes on State and
Federal salaries, eliminating the tax
exemption provision from ail future
bond-issue, and considering monopolistic
practices in business, thereis
equal doubt that anything will be
done by this Congress.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our gratitude
to our many friends for their expressions
of sympathy during the recent
illness and death of our little daughter
