This is a sad state of affairs. It is regrettable to see children kept from school on account of indifference., but to be starved out of school'is decidedly worse. We need a little closer union between the rich and the poor. We have plenty of Scripture to take c&re of cases like this, if we would,follow its teachings. Behold the Fall Just ten years ago I'itt County was the queen of the South. No county in all of the Southern States produced as much agricultural wealth as did i Pitt County, N. C'. Now Governor Gardner is throw- J ing the force of the State into that county to save it from the heavy hand of poverty. Conditions in I'itt County are only (air samples of j those existing in parts of Martin, hdgecombe, Lenoir,- Greene. Wilson, ana other counties in this fine agri cultural section.

Vet that is the case, and we are now the most helpless generation that has peopled America since the great Declaration of Independence IJ3 years ago. * \,vv," Will Hit County citizens and their neighbors in other -seettons hearken back to the safe principles of l.v ng and farming*or will they rush on, to final de iiru,ct ion in the wild pursuit of pleasure? We must, at least, do differently during the next tt': years from that which we have done the past ten ye s i,;«f are going to save our homes and be a independent people. The Right Attitude Wi i-nrsimi merchants are taking the right atti tude in helping the farmers, who have lost so heavily irf their farming operations this year. The merchants have marked their goods down to a very low margin, wialj.ing the farmer and laborer to procure the family necessities more easily.., • With this kind of cooperation, everybody will be able to stand the short crop and low price losses, hvery interest in the community being dependent on . thv. interests makes it essential that all should work in perfect cooperation. The Squawking Begins Now they squeal and squawk. y | The Chairman of the United States Chamber of Commence, Mr Julius Barnes, dots not like the new federal l aVm Board with the wheat farmers. 11 is positien whole story. He is a big wheal- exporter and finds that the Farm Board policies hold the vvJi«*t farmers in an independent position, so that he and his gang of exploiters can not squeeze them. He is willing for the farmer to control 40 per cent of the crop, but wants to handle the other 60 per cept for him. The speculator figures that if the government will stand "hands-off," he will have no trouble handling the firmers in any way he likes. Now that the Gov ernment is! loaning the farm* organizations money at 3 1-2 per cent interest, it is galling the gang that has ihoked him to death in the past. y All the Safeguards Needed Chairman Joseph W. Byrnes of the Domacratic National Committee, says " There is no basis for the contention that the administrative provisions in the Hawley bill art 1 necessary to facilitate the adjust ment of rates to meet changing economic conditions." The Norris Simmons amendment provides for such prompt action by Congress, and expli£illy provides a £ainsLopening up the entire tariff question every time a rate needs to be revised. Experience of the recent past is coflfhtstve evidence that .as.prompt action may be had from the Congress as from the executive branch and "there as no danger that Congress would permit _iuch adjustments as would disturb equality between the v;frious ' f | fHE ENTERPRISE NOTICE North Carolina.
