Washington, May 30 (Autocaster)
M*'. t \'<r? * ,s~'. ? '
_T\vo recent events have oretty
nearly blown the dome off the Uapitul
figuratively speaking. They .are
tj1L> disclosure by President RooseVCU
that the personally sanctioned
the purchase of Argentina canned
c0.-ned beef for the Navy, and the
reports which IjaVe leaked out of
the secret sessions of the Dies committee
investigating un-American
ni'iivilics.
If impassioned oratory could bring
down the roofs of the Senate and
House, which ,are none too secure
nirhi^cturally, they wouuld have
al lapsed when Senators and Represt
r.tntiwes began to voice their indignation
over the corned..beef affair.
N?>t only from the cattle-raising
stales but from many other sections
the members blew off steam in defense
of the American steer and in
protest against the implied slur on
the quality of American beef. For
the President had said publicly that
canned corned beef from the Argentine
was not only cheaper than
American beef, but of superior
quality.
Trie total amount involved in the
proposed Navy purchase of corned
can nnn and from the
bocl is OUijr ?,
point ol' view of the Administration
tiiat is a low price to pay for "appeasement'1
of Argentina.
Alone among the South American
republics, Argentina cherishes a
deep-seated hostility to the United
Sud.cs. arising from the embargo
against the importation to this
country of fresh or frozen beef fromthe
pampas of that great cattleraising
nation. The reason for that
is that a large part of the Argentine
range is infected with foot..and..
I mouth disease.
That has not prevented other nations
from buying Argentine frozen
beef, which constitutes the counI
try's largest industry, but the regu|
lations of the United States DepartI
ment of Agriculture keep it out of
I arc sore at Uncle Sam, and it looked
like good diplomacy to buy some of
their canned corned beef, packed
under the watchful eyes of U. S. inspectors.
Pleased Argentina
Tiie President's announcement
phased Argentina but it started a
rumpus in Congress. ' The. Senate
Naval Appropriations Committee
voted to insert in the new Naval
Supply bill a proviso that none of
1
the money should be spent to uujr
foieign food for the bluejackets*.
One Senator made the startling
discovery that in the Senate and
House restaurants members were
bring fed with imported cornedef,
paclcd in Brazil by a branch
an American packing-house con..1
rn. i ' " * I
The Navy authorities which cornered
American corned beef with
-hat.of Argentina say that the latter
is hpftcr because in tliis country
only the poorer cuts of beef are
corned, while the Argentinos pickle
the quality which in America goes
into /iot dogs and hamburgers.
Tile excitement over the cornedbeef
episode was still at its height
when the news came out from be,
hind the closed doors of the Dies
investigating committee that witnesses
had been telling of an organised
national anti..Jewish movement,
in which the name of a high
Army officer figured prominently.
Major-General Van Horn Moseley,
retired, was reported to be one of
the leaders in he campaign to stir
UP a nti-Jewish sentiment.

| McGuires Take
{ To Dentistry

The following interesting Associated
Press story from Atlanta wil'
prove interesting to Jackson countj
people:# "It may sound strange when
Patsy McGuire is called to receive
her diploma at Atlanta-Southern
: Dental college, Thursday night, just
.after Harold McGuire gets his?but
j that's not half of ''the McGuire?
dental situation.
! "Patsy McGuire met Harold McGuire
at college and they married
when both were junors, and they'll
enter practice at Sylva, jN. C., where
(Patsy's parents, Dr. Dafisy McGuire
'and Dr. W. P. McGuire, already are
[practicing. "Dr. NoraceUa McGuire,
' Patsy's older sister also *is practicing j
in the North Carolina city; and an- j
other sister, Kitty Dean McGuire j
will enter Atlanta-Southern next;
j year." f
j Perhaps the McGuires inherit their
i tendency to dentistry, not only from
their parents, but from the grand.. '
' father of Noracella, Patsy and Kitty ,
Dean, and the father of Dr. Daisy,?
Dr. James Zachary, who practicedhis
profession in this county for many <
(years. He reared a large family of j
(grls, but no boys. So Dr. Daisy followed
in her father's steps and studied
dentistry as did the youngest
of his daughters, Dr. JessieMoreland,
| who was a leading dentist in Raleigh
for several years; but has returned
j to her native heath, and is practicing j
. her ' profession in Highlands and I
Glenville, near the home of her I
father.

U. S. Housing Administration, and'*
several members of the "inside" I
group which is supposed to have I
access to the Presidential ear, the
partial disclosures of a wide-spread
j campaign to discredit the Jewish
'people has caused very much more
of a stir in official circles than anything
else the Dies committee has
turned up.

j Dewey Still Leads
' On the Republican Presidential
side,, the feeling now is that while
District Attorney Dewey of New
| York still leads in public favor,
some of the Dewey sentiment may
j have been stimulated by New Deal
: influences, who figure that he would
ho'rosier to defeat than an older
I man with more administrative experience.
Republican leaders are turning
their eyes again toward Senator
Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan.
The return of Harry Hopkins,
Secretary of Commerce, to his desk
after a long illness, was signalized
by the resignation of General Robert
E. Wood, Chicago business man
who had been serving as business
counselor to the Department, and
of Richard C. Patterson, assistant
secretary of the Department. These
./esignations have revived talk of an s
