On Candidacy Of
Troy Barnes
By HOWARD F. JONES SR.,
Associate Editor The Waren Record
The Honorable Troy Barnes cf
Wilson has "planked down his $100
and issued a sizzling statement'' in
his attack upon Congressman Kerr.
I quote from "Under the Dome,"
News and Observer of the 12th. In
fact, the News and Observer's columnist
says he "hankers" for the
job of Congressman. The dictionary
says "Hankers" means "Have an
incessant desire; hunger, crave"
Mr. Barnes has this privilege.
However, the velocity and vehemence
of his attack reminds us of
a little cyclone we had in our back

attempted to remove her.: ntudaiaage
done.
In our mind it is not the question
of Mr. Barnes' desire to go to
Washington; but the premise of his
desire. He says he can do this
more efficiently and with greater
benefit to the District than Congressman
Kerr has done. He names
many sins of Omission and Commissions.
His eyes are so steadily
fixed on that honorable seat now
held by Congressman Kerr that ne
does not look backward in his own
county and town to see what he has
done. What changes would he
make? He finds none, because he
criticises the Congressman for trying
to see that his constituents get
all places that are his privilege to
bestow; and, according to Mr.
Barnes, Postmasterships, Rural Carriers,
Clerks, Post Office buildings
musE be neglected tor other duties.
And he caps as a serious failure
of our present Congressman that
"after 14 years of continuous service
he is only Chairman of Committee
on Elections No. 3, as a real
and disappointing 'let-down'." Of

Conflicting Stories
Told Regjirding
Alleged Hold-Up
Conflicting stories have caused
Sheriff W. J. Pinnell to practically
lease in his efforts to apprehend the
iwo unidentified negroes who were
;aid to have held up Pink Rodwell,
iJorlina negro, with a pistol at noon
Saturday as he walked out of the
iVarrenton post office and robbed
rim of $80.00 he received from a
noney order.
At the time of the alleged robrery,
Rodwell is said ;o have told
Sheriff Pinnell that two negroes he
bad never seen before gave him a
ride from Norlina and (hat after he
bad gone into the post office and
eashed the money order and started
up the street the men threw a pis;ol
on him, relieved him of his cash
and sped off in a Ford V-8. He described
one of the men as being
lark with a lot of gold in his mouth
and the other being ginger cake
roior.
The alleged robbery was broadcast
and later Sheriff Pinnell carried
Rodwell to Durham where he was
questioned by a detective.
Rodwell is said to have changer
his story considerably frcm the orig.
inal version, claiming that he knew
the men by sight and that they had
been to his house several times trying
to sell him an automobile. Rodwell's
inconsistency and other things
are said to have caused Sheriff Pin.
nell to practically drop the case.
Case Against
Baxter Continued
State Highway Patrolman WliiLam
Baxter, son of Mrs. Delia Baxter ol
Warrenton, will not be tried at this
term of Vance county Superior
court which is now in session due to
the fact that two murder cases have
conjested the docket to the point
where it will not be possible to even
clear the jail cases, it was learned
late yesterday over telephone from
Henderson.
Baxter is charged with man.
slaughter as the result of, the death
Df 11-year-old J. B. Richardson, son
of Mrs. O. O. Richardson of Durham,
who was fatally injured by the
patrolman's car nearly two years
ago while on the highway in the
mill district of north Henderson.
Following the accident, Baxter
was absolved of blame by a coroner's
jury but the case was later
re-opened and has been repeatedly
postponed. It was set for trial yesterday.
The death of the child occurred
February 21, 1936, on Highway 1,
which runs directly through the
North Henderson mill district. Baxter
said at the time that as his car
progressed through that section he
saw several small boys by the side
pf the highway, which a [fords no
sidewalk, and that he slowed down,
rhe Richardson child, he said, suddenly
rushed out in frort of the
air and although Baxter swerved
to avoid the child, he was struck
'atally.
Mrs. Richardson, with two chiliren,
had moved to Henderson only
i few davs Drior to the accident
md after the death of the boy re;urned
to her former home in Durham.
It was not until the June,
L936, term of Vance Superior court
hat Mrs. Richardson returned to
Henderson and requested Former
Solicitor W. H. S. Burgwyri to have
;he case reconsidered before the
jrand jury, which eventually found
i true bill.
Baxter is a native of Warren
:ounty- At the time of the accident
re was en route to visit bis mother

TO OPEN MONDAY
Judge Clawson Williams Of
hantord To Preside Over
Two Weeks Term
FIRST VISIT TO WARREN
The January term of Warren
county Superior court convenes on
Monday for a two weeks term with
Judge Clawson Williams of Sanford
presiding and Solicitor Ernest
R. Tyler of Roxobel looking after
the prosecuting department.
This will be Judge Williams' first
official visit to Warrenton since he
became a Superior court judge and
, he will be faced with a criminal
docket wmcn is regaraea oy court
attaches as being comparatively
light and lacking in countywide Interest.
Perhaps the most important cases
on the criminal docket are the
charges against members oi the
Board of County Commissioners for
failure to carry out grand jury recommendations
in regard to repairing
the jail, and the murder charge
against Ted Terrell who was granted
a new trial by the Supreme
court on the ground that the presiding
judge erred in his charge to
the jury when the Vance county
man was being tried for fatally
shooting Andrew Knight at Kinton
Whit's service station near Norlina
on the night of March 7, 1937. Since
the commissioners were indicted
they have completed plans for repairing
the jail and work is going
. forward there now. Many of the
, other charges are for breaking and
entering or cases which were appealed
from Recorder's court.
Judge Williams comes to Warren
; county with the reputation of being
a rather stern jurist who runs his
: court in a business-like manner and
excuses jurors only under extraor;
dinary circumstances. He also bears
down on violators of the whiskey
; laws of the state, it was said.
Included on the criminal docket,
1 in addition to the cases against
. Terrell and the commissioners, are
r the following charges:
[ Robert Crewe, alias Willis Harris,
breaking and entering; Jesse
Robinson, breaking and entering;
i Robert Boyd, breaking and entering;
, Peter Williams, hit and run driving
doing personal injury; Alvin Johnson,
Julian Johnson, Furman Hobbs,
Williard Coggins, breaking, entering,
larceny; S. J. Satterwhite, W. A.
[ Kimball, L. O. Reavis Jr., and Buck
Wilson cases of not vaccinating dogs
( which were appealed by the state
after the men had been acquited in
. Recorder's court; John Rush, force
, aoie trespass; w a. r-uwcu, mot!
pass; J. D. and D. M. Winkler,
, breaking, entering and larceny;
. Woodro'V Singleton and Luther McDowell,
breaking, entering and lar[
ceny; Bruce Grissom, receiving
stolen goods knowing them to have
been stolen; Jack Oakley, three
cases of breaking, entering and larceny;
Crichton Kelly, larceny.
1 The case of breaking, entering
1 and larceny which was booked
against the Winkler brothers of Vir|
ginia after the Swan Sandwich Shop
and Beer Garden of Norlina had
! been held up and robbed, has been
tried several times but juries have
been unable to agree on their innocense
or guilt and mistrials have
been orderedJohn
Rush has been tried and
/>r,rivir-fprf nn a charee of forceable 1
trespas but he failed to live up to
the terms of the suspended Judgment
and his name remains on the
docket.
