THE IDEAL PLACE FOR THE TRAVELING MAN One of the chief functions of a Chamber of Commerce is the publicizing of the attractive fea tures of a town, that more per sons may be interested in mak ing it thfcir home. Directors of the Southern Pines oi-ganization this week hit upon an idea \yhich : shoukl bear fruit- All that is re-' quired is the cooperation of the i local merchants. VAKfj' PO YOU KNOW WURSTA7F?

It is useless to blame the driv er in this part of the state. That is a fully accredited nine month school term. To the traveling man with a family, this educational feature should mean much. It opens the way for his chUdren to emerge from high school qualified for entrance into the country’s lead ing universities and colleges. Or In a letter to The Pilot John S. Ruggles objects to being referred to as “formerly of Southern Pines” in our story of last week about his four- year ola son. He’s still of Southern Pines and w’on't have it any different shown the size of the against-Roose- velt-at-any-price vote rather than measured accurately the relative strength of two nominees. In this, the first test of the pop ularity of Messrs. Roosevelt and Lan- don, Mr. Roosevelt’s strength has fal len sharply. He still has a majority of the popular vote—the figure is 51.3 per cent, against 48.2 per cent for Governor Landon. But Mr. Lan- don leads in enough states with large electoral votes to give him a majority and we don’t blame him. Who’d W’ant to be “Of Raleigh” when he could be Electoral College of 6 votes ‘ of Southern Pines?" requires to win the elec tion.

For this commission has made a surprising discovry, to-v^dt: that the ordinary citizen is the man who really pays for the country’s roads and that he therefore is entitled to enjoy them when he goes on a holiday trip. in line with this discovery, the commission has issued an order barring all heavy trucks from 21 main Wisconsin highways on week-ends and holidays, from Memorial day to the end of Sep tember. If it were not for the fact that the ordinary American is a game guy when it comes to putting up with nuisances, the force of public opinion would long since have caused similar rules to be put through in every State in the Union- Set out on any kind of motor trip these days and you will learn all about the truck situation be fore you are 24 hours older.

The last time the Sandhills saw a President or Presidential candidate was on October 25th, 1932 w’hen Franklin D. Roosevelt made a rear platform talk en route north through Southern Pines. delivered his formal speech of accept ance. And yet the cumulative dis satisfaction with the New Deal and the nascent enthusiasm for Mr. Lan don as a Presidential aspirant have combined to give him a strong posit ion from which to start the race, i No poll is infallible. In particular is it impossible to predict with cer tainty at the very outset of a cam- We hate to keep talking about the pajgn just w'hat the result will be in weather, but wonder if there are a.ny states where the strength of the two jobs available in the big Aberdeen ice candidates is now nearly even. But I today’s findings certainly make it plain why President Roosevelt is mov ing heaven and earth to obtain sup port. He needs it. The tide is running ' strong against him and his New Deal.
