RALEIGH HAS MO DICTATORIAL HABITS. Raleigh Times. TI10 Charlotte Observer setn forth some more "facts" connected with the appointment of Alston D. Watts as Commissioner of Revenue: It is represented in The Raleigh cor respondence of The Greensboro News that the Capital City is "not pleased" with the Watts appointment. That is l'o new condition down that way. It is a fact known all over the State that Raleigh is never "pleased" with any guliernatorial net that is not dictated by Raleigh, ami one of the most pn couraging signs of the people at large is that Governor Morrison has launched his administration under policies that indicate he would rather please the State than please Raleigh, individually, col lectively and officially. It would he a sorry sort of an administration if he were lining out affairs for the particu lar pleasure of Raleigh. "A fact known nil over the State that Raleigh is never 'pleased' with any gulernatorial act that is not dictated by Raleigh." We would suggest that The Observer look up the meaning of the word in the dictionary. "Down" this way the populace is accustomed to Governors, even Charlotte Governors: hut does not recognize as facts the im pressions of newspaper, folk home town or outsiders. It may be that that part of the State tthich unfortunately for itself was not included in the recent extension of the city limits of Raleigh assumes that this community attempts to dictate to official dc.m. But the general impression here is that such is not the case. Local busi ness and professional men drop in on the State Government when sent for; otherwise this community accepts the coming of a new Governor or ndminis-j tration calmly and philosophically. If the "facts" could be established, we'd l.rt The Observer a new straw hat that) already four to five times as many Char-, lotte as Raleigh people have called on Governor Morrison to ask him to do .thus and so. If the proportion isn't this, it will lie before the Governor is through. Raleigh is. as. we have suggested, ac customed to the presence of greatness in its midst. If greatness 1e a good fellow, he' can have a good time running around the town with the rest of folks. If he isn't, he will be left alone. But while every child from six years up will express its opinion of action contem plated or accomplished by a State of-, ficiaL, that opinion is not offered as State policy. " Everybody comes here- and evervbodv talks mostly of politics, mirabili dictu, w"u" " vasny oener to taii'Hoxie in " Th0 Man from Nowhere "r.uuiai khi run- urn. ui rourw, naieign Knows notning about" the rest of the State, it is these out-of-the-way plates such as Dukptown-! on-the-Catawb that know what the ! whole IopU are thinking. i a Ibor Vuetrtion. - Jhe Altoona pastor who declared that!

MINISTERS DIRECT ATTENTION TO CHINA FAMINE AREA Gastonia Ministers Association Urges That People of City Give Help to Urgent Appeals That Come From China and Near East. The Ministers' Ass,i,-i.iti if the city desire that the al'eiition of all the peo ple be called to the earnest a;. peals that continue to come from the famine suffer ers of North China and the Near East 1 ''he situation in both of th-se regions is unchanged, and al'iiuugh the people of America have been liberal in their re sponge, the actual ii'-t.ls have by in means yet been met. The most re-cut information coming directly from eye-witnesses who can thoroughly be ilependeil upon is to the effect that a great deal in ,i.si stance must be rendered or millions of people iiil perish. The appealing needt and conditions, they tell us, cannot be exag gerated. There is absolutely no uncer tainty about this. The only hope is in' t!:e lilierality of the people of this coun-t-y. What is needed Is money. Food can be secured and carried to the suffer ers. A very small amount will save a Mr. S. A. Robinson will be very glad '" receive and forward any contributions from the city or county. Those dwsir- . 11 g to help should designate whether their donation is to go to North China : or the Near East Relief. When the funds are not thus dcslrnnted thev will equally divided Wtween the' two places.
