News Editor Subscription: SI.OO per year; .60 six months Entered as 2nd class matter June 26,1925, at the Post Office at Zebulon, N. C. ANOTHER MAN’S OPINION A prominent citizen of Wendell was in town this week. He said: “Well, I see some results of having a city manager.” “What's that?" I asked. “One thing," he replied, “is the parking lines on the streets.” And so outsiders are taking notice. A new official who is trying a new job cannot be expected to turn the town upside down in a day or a month. I have watched Manager Thompson with interest and I hope with sympathy, too, as he has taken hold of a difficult task. It will take considerable time for him to become fully familiar with his duties and to be able to get his plans carried out. I can point out a number of things 1 think should be done. In fact, I have mentioned one or two things to Mr. Thompson and the Chief of Police. And I am sure they will attend to them. After one is sure nothing is going to be done about such, then will be ample time to offer public criticism. It things are not done, tell them about it. If they are done, then likewise tell them about it. A word of praise may not lengthen one’s days, but it will help a fellow enjoy them more. If the word of appreciation is not spoken, you will not be dunned for it. And, remember there are no taxes to be paid on what one gives away, w. LEWIS AND LABOR John L. Lewis doubtless thinks he has won his battle with the government. If he has, no doubt he first heard the roar of public opinion shouting for his dethronement. The man who would corner the labor market is no less a selfish, greedy capitalist than a Patton who would corner Chicago wheat. Labor's greatest foe is in her own household. A recent Callup poll showed that only about 13 per cent of the answers were favorable to the closed shop, or in other words, six to one were against Lewis’ contention for closed shops. How true are the words of our President: “That small minority is a menace to the true cause of labor itself, as well as to the nation as a whole." Congress should go on and pass some laws that will justly stop such selfish arbitrary ruling of tiie nation's greatest force —labor —so that such a situation as we are now passing out of will never arise again. Let no one believe Lewis is crushed or has learned his lesson. Unless this government stops him his taste of victory and desire for more power will not stop till he has dug unionism’s grave and enticed it into it. And many an innocent one will suffer with it. THE HAPPY MEDIUM Since boyhood we have known or heard about where extremes meet, zero, the golden means, high and low tide, positive and nega tive, heat and cold, good and bad, God and the devil and heaven and hell. These opposites or extremes have ever been opposing if not antagonizing factors to be reckoned with in human experience and affairs. Os late years we have read a lot about how to beat the law of supply and demand and now the all-important question in national affairs is to make an adjustment between labor and capi tal that will satisfy all concerned. So far as we know there has been no adjustment of the laws regulating extremes that proved satisfactory to more than one side and that not for long. To add to all the dizzy doings the govern ment now comes forward to “fix" wages and prices. A ceiling is sought for prices. If a definite ceiling is imposed on prices, then of necessity there must likewise be a definite ceiling on wages. Neither will be satisfactory to either side. It is die age old question of labor and capital. It cannot be settled arbitrarily nor permanently. Here the law of supply and demand comes in to complicate mat ters. Any adjustment must be temporary. It can be only temporary. Profiteering is just as possible in wage earning as it is in invest ing. Most certainly should our government make definite rulings in the light t>f present conditions in both prices and wages. But these can only prove beneficial so long as present conditions exist. When the law of supply and demand changes, there will need be an ad justment of regulations controlling prices and wages. So nothing is going to be settled so long as there is change, which will be always. It seems we might learn this eternal truth and adjust ourselves to it. A “BRIGHT" OUTLOOK * One hears occasionally of deaths among newspapers. Even the big ones die once in awhile. We also hear of births in this world of written words. Probably the biggest (so it claims) newspaper in America is the Chicago Tribune. Col. MeCorftnck with his millions backs this paper. It is almost bitterly anti-British and also anti- New Deal. Now Marshall Field with his department store fortune is starting a new morning paper in Chicago called The Sun. Field is for Roosevelt and against the Axis. Zebulon could ill afford two newspapers, or rather The Record could not stand a very stiff opposition of that kind. But if we had the Field millions to back us we could start a newspaper, buck the opposition and keep on sending our bright and shining light out into the hills and valleys beyond. The trouble is we don’t have much filthy or clean lucre, so we won’t at this time start anything that will take more money. Uncle Sam has already started enough in one thing, to break most of us. It sounds sorter like Axis. FORUM MUSIC To the Editor: I do not know one note from another nor can I perform credi tably on any musical instrument, yet I am a self acknowledged au thority on music. I know what does, and does not, suit me. Our old familiar and cherished hymn. l such as “Amazing Grace," “How- Firm a Foundation,” (to the old tune) “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name," and many others of the kind have survived through pa§t generations and will be passed on with undimmed popu larity because the words carry a gospel message attuned to music that is appealing to the ear. In secular music there is a growing tendency to modern arrangements that amount to murderous as saults on some of our most pop ular compositions. The modern lzer who thinks he can improve on Stephen Foster’s products should visit the New Bern man’s kicking machine. I was brought up in a community of “Ye old time fiddlers" including my uncles. I am glad that some are endeav oring to keep the spirit of these so called reels and jigs alive but they substitute speed for rythmn so that one can hardly distinguish between “Billy in the Low Ground” and “Forty Acres and a Mule.” I had been expecting that some one would burst forth knocking the shortening out of “Short'ning Bread.” That very thing did happen not long since from an unexpected source dur ing Kay Kayser's broadcast. There was a time when I thought to be able to get “on the radio" was “some accomplishment” re served only for the musically elite. I have long since been disillusioned on that score. I used to hear the darkies at country corn shucking.; sing "Bury Me in the Garden" that eclipses much that I have heard over the radio; but it does' not behoove me to disparge radio broadcasts, and I am not so mucii inclined to do so since I joined n a coast to coast broadcast (over glgl Warning!!

Although my voice was blended with five thousand others, it doe 3 seem that some of my friends would have recognized it as I came out loud and strong on my favorite hymn, “Amazing Grace.” S. H.
