Seeing them every day, we forget that our ntoun- i tains are indefinably beautiful, until some visitor j exclaims ? or until we go elsewhere and find our selves terriblv homesick for them. The same is trueiof our really excellent climate. , our fine water, our resources of farm and forest, at' 1 scoes of other things. Most important of all. we are inclined to take j kor granted the most important advantage of all. j i lii- fine t'iti/enship, by and large, of Macon County, j This is called to mind by an editorial in the Hen- 1 dersonville Times-News. That newspaper devotes | a full column to discussion of Hendersonville's J "problem of street begging". And iu Franklin and Highlands? Well, there just isn't, any such problem here. And ] the explanation lies in the character of Macon County's citizens. Lewis vs. U. S. i '['here are those who have felt that Harry Tru man often has proved a foolish President, and not im'rei|ueiitlv' a weak one. To them, Mr. Truman's st :iii< I in the soft coal crisis must have come as an agreeable surprise. Whether the President acted wisely in the method Iv chose for the battle with John L. Lewis can be known only when the outcome is finally de termined. But there has been a widespread feeling that, sooner or later, the question of who was master, Lewis or the government, had to be an swered, and that wisdom dictated a decision of that issue now. And certainlv nobody can question Mr. Truman's courage in challenging the power of the coal baron. To that display of courage, most Americans reacted with a feelimr of "more power to him-" For it is not as though the President of the Unit ed States were out to punish organized labor. Lead ers of the AFL and the CIO were quick to rally to Lewis' aid, it is true, but that does not change the lact that Lewis today does not represent the best | elements of American organized labor. What he chiefly represents is John L. Lewis, a j spoiled, selfish, stubborn, and (in the long run) stupid old man. Rights Of The Man Already There "Count rv people are as much entitled to protec tion by zoning as those who live in cities", de j dares The Country Gentleman, in an editorial cap tioned, "We Can Kick Out Honkv-Tonks". The editorial cites, as an example of the neces sity for some sort of zoning, the case in California where the people of a community are carrying on an uphill fitrht to prevent the opening, on a high way. of a third beer and wine place, all situated near the community school. While honky-tonks near schools present the prob lem in an acute form, honky-tonks aren't the only\ thines that call for zoning. There are many busi nesses. of an essential and highly desirable nature, which have no place in residential districts, whether in town or the country: when situated in such a district, they tend to make the community a less de sirable place to live, and thus destroy property values. Some form of zoning is essential in any well ordered community today, and the smart commun ity will tackle the problem early. It's something that will have to be done sooner or later; and the earlier, the easier and less expensive it will be. 8elf control is more often called for than self expression. ??William WIstar Comfort.

IGNORANT CITIZENS A nation-wide poll has revealed that about half the people questioned ? presumably a fair cross-section ? could not name any senator with whose record they had reasonable familiarity, or appraise intelligently the qualifications of any member of Congress. Confusing senators with representatives was com mon. and many worthy folk were listed as members of Congress vho had never achieved that honor. This condition obviously does not make for good government. Members of Congress are not likely to be much concerned for fhe welfare of people who neither know who they are nor what they have done. But quite apart from the effect this apathy may have no public men, it is convincing proof that a large part of our people are by no means awake to their civic responsibilities. ?
