i?What will come out of the efforts

(||Convention of 1940 away from Mr.
Roosevelt and his clique ,and nominate
a candidate representing tile
jonaervative wing of the party, on
i platform of economy, tax reducJon
and effeciency in government,
.s assuming formidable shape.
Nobody talks very much about it
n public, especially the Vice-Prescient.
''Cactus Jack" Garner is too
>hre\vd and experienced a politician
.0 talk about what he is doing or
.rying to do until he is sure that he
las the necessary backing to put it
over.
But the growing belief on Capitol
iill is th?t he is manipulating the
.trings to bring the candidate of his
.holce to the front, and that candidate
is beiieved to be Senator Beniett
Champ Clark of Missouri.
If Vice-President Garner comes
ut in the open for Senator Clark,
nore than five minutes before the
940 convention opens, everybody

Raleigh, February 27 ? Senator (
Chester Cogburn, of Canton stated
today that he probably ,will not in|
troduce the bill that h asbeen re|
guested by a large number of citizens
!)f Balsam, to cut off upper Scott's
Jreek township in Jackson County
md annex it to Haywood. He stated
| hat there is considerable sentiment
llso in Haywood for the proposed
: censure, but that lie is telling the
{ in Waynesville that he will not
' ."Qtroduee the measure in the Senate,
i because even if it should pass the
it will meet with opposition
a the House from the Jackson Repress*
tative. He takes the position that
here would be little likelihood of the , ;
House passing the measure over the
^position of Jackson County and its
Representative in the General Assembly.
Dan Tompkins, Jackson's Repre.entative,
informed Senator Cogburn
I a reply lo his question, that he would {<
nost certainly oppose the bill, should
jj v be introduced, not only in the Senile
Committe lo whicn it would be ( i
referred, but also in the House of
Representatives, in the event the
Senate should pass it. He expresses
limsclf as being in favor of the Bal;amites
being given the road and
he school facilities to which they are
;ntitled; but as being loath to give
hem up as citizens of Jackson. The
op o" the Balsam range, and Balsam
Gap are the natural boundaries, and
Ihe Jackson representative wants the
iinc between Jackson and Haywood
to remain where it is, and where it
j has been, ever since Jackson county |j,
I was formed, nearly a century ago.
