McCaskill Outlines YDC Objectives At
Eighth District Conference At Biscoe
Tasks facing Young Democrat
ic clubs in the south today, and
ways and means of getting more
work going in the North Carolina
Eighth YDC district in particular,
were discussed at an Eighth Dis
trict conference held Saturday
evening in the high school cafe
teria at Biscoe, called and led by
Jeff Wilson, of Biscoe, Eighth
District chairman.
Representatives were present
from Moore, Montgomery, Rich
mond and Scotland counties, with
those of the Moore County Young
Democratic club predominating.
The conference followed a deli
cious steak dinner served by Mrs.
Jeff Wilson and other ladies of
the community.
A major piece of business was
the unanimous endorsement of a
resolution prepared by Lament
W. Brown, newly elected presi
dent of the Moore County club,
pledging Support to H. Clifton
Blue, Moore County representa
tive to the General Assembly, for
president of the North Carolina
YDC in the event that he becomes
a candidate.
Withholds Decision
Mr. Blue, who was present, re
ceived this vote of confidence
with an expression of deep appre
ciation, adding that he preferred
to withhold a definite decision as
to his candidacy until the state
convention; Thursday, Friday and
Saturday at Greensboro.
If a strong candidate appeared
who would bold the state organi
zation together and build up its
work he would rather give him
his support than contest the of
fice with him, he said, and would
not himself run unless he felt he
was sincerely needed. In any
event, he said, the considerable
strength of the Eighth district
should go for harmony and unity
within the ranks.
It was reported that the Mont
gomery anei M'oore County clubs
had already given Blue their
unanimous indorsement.
Spreading Interest
Discussion of ways to get more
activity under way, and objec
tives of the Young Democratic
clubs, was led by Hubert McCas
kill, of Pinehurst, who last week
concluded two years of service as
chairman of the club described as
“the most active in North Caro
lina”—^that of Moore county. “If
there is a club more active any
where I’d like to see it,” said Mr.
McCaskill. “In Moore we have a
group of men and women who
are truly political minded. We
work on the principle that the
more people are interested, the
better government we will have
and we are trying to interest ev
erybody.” This is done, he said,
through meetings where everyone
has a chance to talk; where in
vited speakers give a new slant
on things political in order to stir
more thought, and where candi
dates and incumbents in state
and national office are also invit
ed as often as possible, for better
acquaintance with the electorate.
Getting everyone registered and
getting out the vote he also
stressed as duties of the YD clubs.
An interesting report was also
given by Evert King, Jr., of Troy,
chairman of the Montgomery
County club, and Giles Y. New
ton, of Gibson, long a figure in
state political affairs, gave a gen
eral review of the political situa
tion today.
Open Forum
The discussion was enlivened
by questions asked and ideas ad
vanced by Geo. Steele and John
Page, Jr., Rockingham, who with
Chairman Clyde Causey had no
activity to report from down
their way but were anxious to see
things get moving. The meeting
proceeded to a general discussion
of political affairs, party regular
ity and the position of the Demo
cratic party today.
Chairman Wilson read letters
from Rep. C. B. Deane and his
secretary, John A. Lang, Jr., of
Carthage, extending good wishes
though they were unable to be
present. He gave a reminder of
the state convention, at which it
is anticipated the district will be
strongly represented, and also of
the Eighth District rally to be
held at Carthage at 2:30 p. m.,
Monday,' October 11.
Mr. Wilson has announced that
he is not a candidate for re-elec
tion to the office of district chair
man, for which Mr. McCaskill, of
Pinehurst, is at present the only
avowed candidate, subject to elec
tions to be held at the caucus at
Greensboro next Saturday morn
ing.
Present were, from Moore, Hu
bert McCaskill, Pinehurst; H.
Clifton Blue, A1 Cruce, Raymond
Wicker, Aberdeen; Paul C. But
ler, Mrs. Valerie Nicholson,
Southern Pines; Earl Ferguson,
Monroe Chappell, H. A. Borst,
Vass; T. B. Caddell, C. C. McCas
kill, Howard W. Frye, Carthage.
From Montgomery, Jeff Wilson,
Biscoe; Evert King, Jr., Paul
Wallace, Troy.
From Richmond, Clyde H.
Causey, George Steele, John
Page, Jr., Rockingham; from
Scotland, Giles Y. Newton, Gib
son.
