Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene ? one step enough for nte. ? John Henry Newman. Red Cross Calls Women To Work On Bandages AS the fury of the war grows in intensity, the inevitable casualty lists are increasing. From every far-flung station where tlhe flag flies, on every battle field, in every camp at home and in every suffering country where the Red Cross symbol waves, countless bandages are being used daily for the suffering among soldiers and civilians. It strains the sympathy and imagination to try to picture this need that the Red Cross meets? day in and day out, twenty-four hours of every painful day. To meet this need groups of women in every chapter are striving to fill their quota of surgical dressings. To every woman with even two spare hours a week there is a priority call to do her share. With more hands, the burden will not fall so heavily on the few "who are now doing their own and other women's shares. Is there something of your own you can put aside to share in this labor. of love? The appeal comes from your Red Cross. The need is urgent if Macon county is not to lag. "AMiitMt President" THE South has made some notable contributions to the war in personnel, but no more valuable in point of indispensable service than James F. Byrnes of South Carolina. Known as the President's right hand man in the Senate where he served for many years with distinction, there was universal approval when his appointment - by the president to the United States Supreme Court was confirmed by Congress. But he was not allowed to enjoy the compara tive quiet and peace of the Supreme Court bench for long. Because of his peculiar fitness and will ingness to do difficult jobs with a gentle integrity which got things done in an unbelievably painless way, he took 'hold of the job of Director of Econ omic Stabilization. Now, in the new office of War Mobilization Director, he is promoted to a position second only to the President, and equivalent to assistant .presi dent. The courteous, modest and energetic South ern gentleman 'has proven his capacity for team work, his courage, and his good judgment which inspires confidence and overcomes opposition. Now, "most of America's biggest home-front problems and all of Washington's greatest muddles" rest on his shoulders. His speech on May 31 over radio from his home town of Spartanhurg was statesmanlike, reassuring, and clear in its declaration of things to come. Giv ing amazing figures of this nation's increasing war production he told the world of preparation being made for the big push down "the roads that lead to Tokyo, to Berlin." He reported that the Allies are girding "not for a single attack on a single front but for many attacks on many fronts both in the European thea ter of war and in the Pacific." Oppression will drive men mad. But we know how to make States that will stand, and not mere ly stand still, but that will radiate, vitalize and illuminate the world. ?HENRY WARD BEECHER.

HEARSTS CANDIDATE (Asheville Citizen). In an envdopte bearing tiie im print of the Senate Committee on Military Affairs, The Gtizen has received an editorial tear sheet from the New York Journal-Amer ican of May 15. The subject of tlie three-colunyi, 12-point editorial, which is illustrat ed by a five-column, full page deep art display, appears in the title and is ponderously supplemented in the picture caption. The one reads : "Robert Rice Reynolds, R^eal Amer ican and True Patriot, Genuine U. S. Statesman." The other blus ters: "Senate Military Chief Loved for the Enemies He Has Made." The Citizen gathers that this is the opening salvo in the campaign of Senator Reynolds for renomi uation in the HM4 North Carolina Democratic primary. Appropriately enough, it has been fired by the Hearst press, an organization which is as alien to North Carolina as' Nichi Nichi or Adolph Hitler's own Volkische Beobachter. If Robert Rice Reynold's only sponsor is the Hearst press, which lately was clasping Hamilton Fish to its bosom, the islotaion of that isolationist from his own constitu ent is now complete and absolute. Unfortunately for the candidate, a senator from North Carolina must be elected by the people of the state, and not by the intellectual rabble of the big cities o whom the Hearst press makes its sinis ter appeals. ANGEL Clink News Mr. Charlie Stiwinter, of the Cul bsaja, section of Macon county, underwent a major operation during the past week. Master Eugene Keener, of Cat lasaja, M.

This unusual ap peal is contained in a statement to the public by Ernest E. Norris, President of the Southern. "Please don't rid* on a Southern Railway train this sulll|per ? unless you conscientiously believe that your trip is necessary." These are the precedent-shattering words of Mr. Norris, who added that he never thought the time would come when he would ask the public not to ride on the Southern's trains. ('But that time has come," he ex plains, "an inescapable by-product of our nation's fight for Victory." "The South is serving the Na tion as the location of many im portant war industries going at top speed and more than half of all The larger training camps and military establishments in the coun try," Mr. Norris continued. "This means simply that our passenger facilities this summer will undoubt edly be strained to the limit. Many of our passenger cars and locomo tives will be assigned to troop movements. Our regular trains and our stations are hound to be liter ally jammed with men and women in uniform, traveling under orders and on furlough, and civilians trav eling in connection with war work. "We're going to do our lev*l best to handle this heavy load, in cluding those civilians who consci entiously believe that they must travel. But, untH our trains and stations are no longer ov*r-crowd ed by essential travel, we hope that you will "patriotically forego all unnecessary travel over our lines." , H-D Schedule 8 ?
