MAKE IT A REAL STATE AFFAIR.
The property formerly used by the State
Fair Association has been divided into a sub
urban development and from its sale tiierc
has been secured enough money to assure
"North Carolinians of another State Fair. There
■js money enough, we repeat, if there can be
found the right sort of management.
It is planned, say Raleigh reports, to go out
about Method, three miles from Raleigh, to
secure the site for the fair grounds. It is re
ported further, that $250,000 is available now
for the purchase of the grounds and the erec
tion of such buildings as are needed as the
first step in the movement for the creation
of another fair.
1 iljfefs make this a real State affair if we want
it |o 'sifcc’ebd. By this we mean let’s make it a
• North Carolina proposition. Let’s make-the
I people of the State, feel that it is their fair,
not some exhibition promoted for the benefit
of outside exhibitors who go ftbrn State to:
'•"•-iBtate with their exhibits just as the- Midway
Shows go from State to State.
fWe can’t get the people of North Carolina!
interested in the fair so'long as all of the prem-j
ium mdneyggoes to outside exhibitors. It is a.
fact no doubt that many of the professionals
? have been paid to bring thefr livestock to Ral-:
■■ eigh in the'past, and in addition they wefe giv-i
? en the privilege of competing with North Car
olina people. Naturally they got most of the
premium money and the Tar Heel, despite the
fact that v it was his fair, felt that it was use
less to compete after all. and soon tost infer-;
est.
We offer this suggestion because the pro-;
fessional exhibitor has been barred from show
j; ?ng at the Cabarrus County Fair, which has
? grown in four years to be the biggest thing ■
$ of its kind in the State. Instead of losing in-
I terest in the .fair here our people arc showing
» renewed interest each year. They arc getting
j| the prizes and the money that goes with them.
If we were asked to name two things which
I more than any-olhers have been responsible
I for thg Cabarrus County Fair we would point
I to these—refusal to allow tlte professional to
I come in and prompt payment of premium mon-
I ey and other debts.
!* If the State finds it can’t get along with the
hew fair any better than it did .with he old
? one we will lend them a man—Dr. T. N.
; Spencer—and guarantee rs they give him a
'» free hand he will soon have the Nprth Carp
jt lina State Fair on an equal basis with the big
* gest and best jn the South. He hits made f’he
Cabarrus Fair a state affair in reality and he
can put over the project in R^feigh.

BUY CHRISTMAS SEALS.
II We are told by officials of the Cabarrus
i County Tuberculosis Society that Concord
[ and Cabarrus people were most generous in the
I recent drive for funds 'to continue the work of
| the society, fn this campaign ini effort Was
| made to secure enough money to pay the tu
; : * berculosis nurse and her expenses for another
!; ( year and our pebple are to be commended
|| for the generous and energetic, manner in
(which they subscribed .to the fund. Tlfev gave
more than ever before for the work, we arc
told, showing thereby a commendable interest
5n a work that is certainly as important as any
other being done in the county.
However, we have not dtme ail that we
,| Should do. To secure funds for milk, food,
Jj medicine and hospital treatment for tubercular
4 persons in the county the society wiH scH

that we might share in the blessings that come
not to them who seek to store up wildly I
goods but to them that seek with their world

THE MAINE ELECTION.
There is nothing surprising in the outcome
of the special senatorial election in Maine.
Had anybody but a Repubiicaan been elected
there it would have been reason for surprise,
but when the G. O. P. candidate piled up an
early and overwhelming lead the result must
be accepted as a natural turn of events.
It is true that certain charges were lodged
against the Republican candidate bat that 1
made no difference. He was given some kind
of a hearing by a Republican committee and
as was to have been expected, was absolved
of all charges. The Republican Governor op
posed him and may be read out of the party for
so doing, but the victory gives the Republicans
control of the Senate and that’s the thing that
counts.
As a result of the election there will he 48
Republicans, 47 Democrats and one Farmer-
Labor Senator in the new Senate. When ev
erything moves off right the Republicans will
have the much sought majority.
That should suit the Democrats all right.
When they the 1928 campaign the
Charge that they controlled the Senate and
worked against the President cannot be made.
The President has a majority, if he knows
What to do with it, while the Democrats have
enough power, along with the insurgents, to
see that the masses are protected.

EFFORT TO “PRUSSIANIZE NORTH CAROLINA
SCHOOLS.
Winston-Salem Journal.
Investigation by Jonathan Daniels. The Journal s
Washington correspondent, shows conclusively that the
movement to establish rifle target shooting -‘clubs'' in
the Winston-Salem High School and other public
schools of Amer'ca was originated by the big arms and
munitions'- manufacturers of this country.
Their object is to create a demand for guns. Their
purpose is to instill into the hearts of the youth a de
sire to shoot.
The Winchester Arms Company ulouc spent live hun
drd thousand dollars in promotion of this insidious and
effective propaganda to turn the minds of American
schoolboys away fppjn books to rifles.
So fur us The Journal has been able to learn, the
arms limnufacthrers have made their first assault in
North Carolina on the Winston-Salem High School. But
other schools are not immune. They, should be on the.
alert. Indeed, isn’t it time the State Department of,
Education was taking a hand to prevent our School sys
tem from being prostituted to the ideals of PrUssianism ?<

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
! MUCH COTTON WILL -.-J
j, BE LEFT IN THE FIELDS
Results of Observation Trips In the
State’s Cotton Balt.
Raleigh Tribune Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel
Raleigh. Nov. 30. —Much cotton in
North Carolina is going to be left In
the fields and will never be picked!
Os this t’he crop reporting service
of the state department of agricul
ture is convinced as the result of. ob
servation trips in various sections of
the cotton belt the last week or two.
So white there is an indicated yield
—get that word "indicated"—of 1.-
250.000 bales for North Carolina, and
that much cotton undoubtedly has
been grown, not all of that amount
will be pieked ginned and baled.
"Os course the principal reason for
this is the low price of cotton ami
[many farmers t’aink that it is not
worth their while to pick it at what
they have to pay the pickers, the giu
ners and others. ' This, of course, is
unwise as it constitutes ppre waste
and is most 'uneconomic,” sgiel Frank
Barker in discussing this phase of
the present situation. "What they
should do is to pick a'l of their cotton
this yeav, and then plant only a'very
small acreage or none at all next
year. But many of them look no
farther than the present and thus let
the cotton rot in the fields, whereas
they- could store it- and keep it indefi
nitely.
"Another factor in the abandon
ment or failure to pick large numbers
if acres of cotton is due to the atti
tude ot many tenant farmers. They
-ee that at present prices they cannot
possible hope to -pay out' of debt,
or settle what they have already bor
rowed from their landlords. Hence,
because they see that there would be
nothing in it for them, even if they
nicked all their crop, they adopt an
‘oh. what's the use’ attitude, and re
fuse to pick any qf it. I know of
numerous eases of this sort."
Still other farmers have harvested
all their other crops first, letting their
cotton go until the last, hoping for a
s ight increase in prices. The result j
will be that many who really intend
ed to pick their cotton have put it off
until it is too late and that much t
of it will go unharvested.
Whether this same condition exists'
in other states. Mr. Parker would not
venture to say.
Twin City Dortor Takes Pin Front
Stomach of Child.
Winston-Salem Journal.
A Winston-Salem physician, who
preferred that his name be withheld,
has just performer! one of the most
unusual operations known in this
city when he opened the abdominal
wall but not the stomach of a child
and skillfully maneuvered a safety
pin inside tlie stomach and closed ii
so that Vulture might do the rest in
relieving the child.
Two weeXs ago little Paul Mn:-
‘in. 13-montho-old son of Mr. ar.d
Mrs. L. W. Martin, of Ardmore,
swallowed an open safety ,pin of j
arge calibre and the physician was
cared- in. An X-Ray examinatlolu
showed the poiut of the pin caught
in the wall of the stomac h and the
oiceration followed. The child is re
ported getting along nicely.

ADMINISTRATION of -1
THE VETEKiVNS’ LOAN ACT
With a $2,000,M0 T&A It U
No Small Undertaking.
Raleigh TYRrane Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel
Raleigh, Nov. 28.—Thf first meet*
ing of the advisory board of Die World
War veterans’ loan eotgniWon will
piobably not be held until Bometime
next week, although it at first w»s
intended to have this meeting some
Fine this week; it was announced ttoi
day by W. N. Everett, secretary of
>tate. who is chairman of the bourd.-
Owing to the absence of W. A. Gra
ham, commissioner of agriculture, who
is in Chicago attending a convention
of commissioners tis agriculture, R
was decided to liostpouc the meeting
of the board, of vifitch he is a mem
ber. until he could be present.
That it will take some time to find
a man suitably qualified for the post
of commissioner of the loan fund
seems evident, according to Mr. Ev
, i-ett, who said that the board would
be in no hurry to act until it was
convinced it had,the right man.
"The administration of a $2,000.-
000 loan fund is no small undertak
ing. and it will undoubtedly require
some tiiue to get all the necessary
machinery into operation. However,
we intend to expedite mntters ns much
as -possible wit'jout being in any un
due haste,” -Mr Everett added.
It is not likely that anything near
tin'* full amount of money available
under the act will be needed for some
time. Mr. Everett said, adding that
the bonds, when issued, would be
marketed only as the demands upon
the fund necessitated.
