Friday, December 4, 1931 Something Wrong With Values Why should the centers of wealth, headed up by a great bankers' trust, criticize the smaller banks and business concerns for bad business practices, when they themselves have choked and bled'them to death? A farm that was good for a thousand dollar loan 10, 20, 30, or 40 years ago is not good for half that amount now. Yet there are more people in the coun try and the farm will produce more than at orev ious time. It is all because the money of the is clogged in a few hands, and the same fellow wnfc holds the money also holds all the credits of the country. In the days of long ago, this condition would have had little effect on the average family, but now it is quite different. We have gotten into the habit of let ting the other fellow look'afer us, which he did as long as we had money. Now he has all our money and a mortgage on everything else we ever had, and we are left, to take care of ourselves. If the walthy make up their minds to divide up their money with us and return our mortgages marked "paid and satisfied,'' business will get better* Hut that day will never come, so it is foolish to wait for it. If ai*e to live on, we must make plans for some other way, and the only way is to take care of our selves and stop wasting our time, energy, and for things we do not need. I'rosjx-rity is a long way * off, but it is coming. We ourselves will have to bring it. It will not be Sent to us free. Japan Begins To See the Light It is beginning to dawn on japan that she will not be permitted to steal Manchuria from China. Japan should be made to repair all damage done in Chinese territory a:>d to pay well for the loss of life. '■ The Call for Help Feeling the sting of cold and the pangs of hunger, many people, through no fault of their own, are call ing for help. Are we going to stand idly by and let them develop into thieves, or are we going to lend a helping hand in caring for their needs? There are many worthy cases in our midst and as the cold, bleak days of winter multiply, the needs of those will be come greater. For humanity's sake, take a part in the task of caring for these unfortunates. L Democracy Must Drop Tammany There is talk now among Democrats that Tammany is not to be permitted to name the Democratic Presi dential candidate next year. If the party will nominate a man vyho stands out against Tammany principles he will be elected. On the other hand, if the Democratic party suffers it self to be dominated by Tammany influence and lets them select the candidate, defeat is certain. The time has arrived in America for all parties to drop such special interests as Tammany rottenness and money privileges. Explain This Cotton is low—cloth is cheap. Wheat is low—flour is cheap.

More Political Gtalt More evidence of shameful political graft was re cently brought to light when two United States Senators, leaders in the Republican Party, were charg ed with bedding up with the sugar trast to such an extent that they might be influenced to put a high tariff on sugar, a tariff to be paid by hungry millions and to enrich a few sugar barons. Yet, something worse appears. The very same sugar man contributed to both the National Demo cratic and Republican Parties. It is very detrimental to the liberties of the people of any country for selfish wealth combinations to own and operate one political party, but when it comes to owning two parties, where is liberty to be found? It really looks as if money is having more influence over the votes of our law-makers than at any time in all our history. Statesman or Politician? L ; The Governor's constitutional committee seems to disagree with him in the matter of the limitation of crops. The commission recommends a provision in the constitution to regulate crop production. Our governor seems to differ from his commission, since he refuses to attempt any legal measures to regulate "production by legislative enactment, even in the face of recommendations from every other cotton-grow ing state, most of them having already passed laws regulating cotton acreage. That man Gardner seems to lie hard-pressed— the folks on one side, money on the other. A condition that marks the dividing line between politicians and statesmen. The man who protects the people first is a statesman. The man who appraises business a bove the people is a politician. Judge Daniels' Charge Judge Frank A. Daniels told the whole truth in his charge to a grand jury in Alamance County this week, (iamb)ing and drinking among young people were pointed out as stepping-stones to crime and ruin by the jurist. "You may watch out for this,'' said the judge. "It will ruin the finest young man in Alamance County. No power on earth can save him who follows these vices." ' Judge Daniels deplores the fact that women —some women -are doing these things, which, he says, are destructive to the very foundation of the virtues that are to womanhood. He said the trend a mong women is breaking down respect for them. ""What chance has the boy or girl coming up in a home where these things are practiced?" Judge Dan iels inquired. He condemned modern amusements and literature as destructive to the morality and decency of the race. These facts have been fully proven in hundreds of cases right here in Martin County. Men have lost their self-respect, their property, their honor, their usefulness; families have been wrapped in rags and for months have gone hungry because some wie drink er or smart gambler has set his feet in the path of the gambler and drinker. Every father, mother, teacher, preacher, and every decent citizen owes it to childhood to point to them the woeful destruction drinking and gambling has done to fine people in our own county. No man can justify either the liquor drinking or the gambling habit. The Wrangle for Offices Congressmen are spending a lot of time wrangling over who is to get the big offices. Both the Demo crats and Republicans-are anxious for high places on the congressional committees. -> It has long been one of our troubles. We fight too much over who is going to get the offices. In fact the principal contention in our politics is party rather than principle. In fact, we have stressed party so long that when a fellow is elected, he doesn't seem to understand that he needs to maintain any principle. Politicians, however, both state and national, may as well take note that the people are about ready to demand principle in government. Doesn't Sound Like Andy Mellon Can it be true that Andy Mellon is going to rec ommend the raising of one billion dollars in taxes from large incomes, higher rates of big inheritances, and more taxes on big gifts? Well, if he does, then the Democratic Congress will put it across for him in a grand pfcrade. No man has sounded a more noble democratic prin ciple that that, if the report is really true. Yet such an idea is so foreign to the supposed principles of Mr. Mellon that it is hard to believe. Of course, the country must have more income. If the rich are not charged with it, then who can pay it?

It isn't the bogey man who is dis turbing the nightly slumbers of the I leaders of the automobile industryj but lean, lanky Henry Ford, with his ! past j record of (ipsetting the apple 'cart at inopportune moments. What is Henry Ford planning for; his next move? That's the question vexing his com petitors. j Within a short time Ford is ex-1 pectcd to bring out a new model, | which other manufacturers fear will | mark the beginning of a tremendous) J upheaval in automotive circles. It is rumor that" he has purchased a jig j for making gears at a cost of approx imately $2,000,000, which will spew out that delicate nlechanism in such . groat quantities and so cheaply that makers of other automobiles will find •it almost impossible to compete with him. either on a production or cost basis. ! Detroiter* hear that the new car is to be a very much improved model, t .which will be sold at an extremely j I low price to insure its ready sale. If | the price is low enough to attract vast t j numbers of purchasers, it is believed j jthat Ford will then institute a three- | jday week and pay his workmen ap proximately $lO a day. i "If that happens, heaven help us," 'the manufacturers moan.
