The Charlotte Labor Journal AND DIXIE FARM NEWS ■nfrred u aacond-claaa matter, September 11, INI. at the Poet Office at Char •atte. N. C.. under the Act of March I, 1871. W. M. WITTER— ---Editor and Publisher CLAUDE L. ALBEA---_Associate Editor CHARLOTTE, N. C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1935 For wiiat is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in ; exchange for his soul, * * * * For the son of man shall come ; in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall ; reward every man according to his works,—St. Matthew ! 17:26-27. , ; Americanism is an unfailing love of country, loyalty to its institutions and ideals, eagerness to defend it against all enemies, undivided allegiance to the flag, and a desire to se cure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity. COL. WADE H. HARRIS With the passing of CoL Wade H. Harris, veteran editor <<>f the Observer, Charlotte and North Carolina has lost a valuable citizen, one whose efforts for nearly forty years have been de voted to its upbuilding and the moulding of thought along sane lines of its citizenship. The editor of The Journal has known Col onel Harris for over 38 years and had the pleasure for years and years of setting his editorials on The Observer and coming in close contact with him. He was a man of deep sympathy, a tender heart, yet a firm will, having had an insight into the affairs of both the State and Nation that few men could boast of. He was demure, yet deep, and while at all times of dignified mien, he enjoyed a joke and he saw the brighter side of life, despite his many trials and tribulations. North Carolina has lost a noble citizen, one who has served well his fellowman and his God. CHARLOTTE’S NEW AIRPORT Under changed conditions, with the government contributing most of the money for an enlarged and really serviceable airport, one meeting all government requirements, and with the possibility of being selected as an airplane base, the city only to be obli gated for $50,000, with a lease that will cover the interest and take care of a sinking fund for the principal, the workers should favor the new project. The Journal has never favored the taking of the old airport, and placing a large sum upon the backs of the taxpayers, leaving a white elephant upon their hands when the flag was dropped at the finish. It is in a fine spirit that the stockholders of the old airport are taking their loss, and each and everyone is to be commended. We extend them the glad hand, but, after all is said and done, probably they had the good and welfare of Charlotte in mind. Sq, let’s get together for the new and enlarged airport and put it over. In conclusion The Journal will state that if a new site had not been selected, and a more commodious field of op erations been in prospect, along with a decreased burden upon the taxpayers it would still be fighting any Airport for Charlotte. TWO WORKING BODIES OF WOMEN Labor has much to be proud of in Charlotte when it comes to fully realize the fact that there are two bodies of women in its ranks who are consistently and persistently laboring for the ad vancement of the Trades Union Movement. Paramounting the use of the Union Label, working with the men in every endeavor, upholding their hands by patronizing the friends of Organized Labor, and refusing to purchase prison-made and sweat shop prod ucts, they are making themselves felt as a buying medium. We refer to the Woman’s Auxiliary of Typographical Union No. 338 and to the Women’s Union Label League. Both organiza-1 tions are well officered, and these loyal women are worthy of all praise from Labor.

So our citizens may get a shot at Old Man Sunday Observ ance at the same time along with the Airport bond election! The airport phase is somewhat different at present than in the past elections and we hope and believe it will carry. As to the Sunday Observance question, more talk is called for and our citizens will, if given a chance, open up things in this bailiwick, or put on the Kd good and tight, with no half way ground being taken as at present. Old man Mussolini has taken the Swastika for the National emblem, to replace the Italian flag, and Germany has followed suit. Tliese two nations are certainly keeping other nations of the world in a state of worry. But the Germans once got a taste of what both may get again, if they do not slow up! Governor Talmadge, of Georgia, lost an ally in fight ing the Roosevelt administration with the passing of Senator Huey Long, in his fight against Roosevelt. Long did not make much headway and Talmadge will make much less. William Gibbs McAdoo, a man we have always admired, has taken his third wife. The Senator is 72 and his last bride 26. He is a man of mettle, or he would not have made this last ven ture. But you never can tell the ways of a man and a maid! Self-preservation is the first law of man.

Concerning the murder committed in a modern, metropolitan hotel, the story presents a unique cross-section of life as seen in the various guests who become involved in the mysterious crime. The plot has to do with the disap pearance of the dead man’s body, a stock broker who is very much dis liked. A young cowman from Wyom ing, a private secretary, a telephone operatod, a Russian countess and many other guests find themselves messed up in the unsavory affair. Franchot Tone, who has attained such widespread popularity as a ro mantic actor, portrays the role of the cowman who is visiting the big city in search for a brunette to marry. Una Merkel is seen as a blonde tele phone operator who joins forces with the cowman to clear certain suspici ons directed at the Countess. How the crime is Ultimately solved and how Franchot Tone wins a blodne instead of a dark-haired wife make an entertaining mystery-comedy that will long be remembered. WALGREEN CO.
