Address an communications to The Enterprise and not to the individual members of the firm. j Friday, November 4, 1932 , The Love of Money The love of money may be a very dangerous thing, but to love the power that money gives is the thing that is at the root of our troubles today. Practically all the money in the United States is being used for other purposes than those for which it was intended. That is to say, it was the original purpose to have some substance to measure values for the convenient exchange of commodities between in dividuals and communities. But now the greater part of the money of the country is locked up, and those who hold the keys to it are forcing the people to bow down to them or starve. Roosevelt's first job should be to paralyze our pres ent financial system. If he fails, then democracy will fail. Democracy's Great Task Democracy is going to win; it should win, and it must remember its promise to run the government on an honest, economical basis. Don't let your neighbor be trotting to Washington • to try to get Congress to create a job for him. Don't be trying to increase your pension check.,or hog on the pension roll. Remember, we are winning on a platform of economy and honesty, and that we have promised to reduce the cost of government as much i as 25 per cent.. We can't do it if we put more folks on the pension rolls and pay more money to those who do not earn it. Let us vote next Tuesday with two distinct princi ples in mind; first, for a change in government; and, second, that when we do change we will demand of all those who go to Washington or to Raleigh that they keep their promises. Two Things To Watch —— No heathen nation with half the food America has and one-tenth of the transportation facilities has ever ,j suffered hunger to invade its people as badly as it is in America at this time. The truth is that unless we take the power of our financial system out of the hands of the few, whose only desire is to create profits for themselves, the whole country is going to go hungry and our boasted civilization will decay. Democracy needs to win, but when it wins, then it must measure up to the task. The American money trust and unbridled greed, such as demonstrated by Japan's recent aggressions, are the two important things to look after. Both need curbing, or we will be slaves. Back To The Farm Baltimore Sun. If it is true, as so many of our leading statesmen proclaim, that the backbone of the nation is its farm population, it ought to be possible to derive some comfort from the large back-to-the-farm movement currently reported by the Department of Agriculture. The department predicts that by the end of the ytar the farm population will be about 32,000,000, or ap proximately what it was in 1910, offsetting a great trek to the cities in the interim. For the first three mooths of this year there was a net movement of' 132,000 from city to farm, and a continuance of this "trend," coupled with an increase in farm population by excess of births over deaths, is expected to result in a large increase in farm population this year. Of course, the comfort to be derived from this strengthening of the nation's spinal cord is greatly reduced by the fact that a large part of the current back-to-the-farm movement is occasioned not by any great enthusiasm to participate in it, but by the ne ceiaity of making the best of a generally bad situa tion. For many it has been easier to go back to FOR SALS: MODERN RKBl dence located on West Main Street, Williamston. Will sell for ICM than actual coat and on easy tenni. See E. S. McCabe, Williams ton, N. C. ol« 4t NOTICE OF SALE "~t Under and by virtue of the power of cale contained in that certain deed of trnat executed to the andemgned trustee bjr Willie Thompson and wife, Mary E. Thompson, on the 19th day of April, 1929, and of record in the stricken farms from even more badly stricken urban communities. However, on the philosophy of "it might have been worse," which we are so often asked to ac cept these days, there may still be a shred of comfort to be derived from the present movement back to the farm, unhappy as has been much of its inspiration, j j The Digest Poll | Raleigh News and Observer. \ Printing its final returns upon "freshly gathered" \ | votes, the Literary Digest announces that its poll in- j | dicates that the electoral vote in the election next ! Tuesday will be: Hoover, 57; Roosevelt, 474. The i Digest, however, editorially declares that it believes ' the vote will be: Hoover, 36; Roosevelt, 495. Edi torially, too, the Digest says that there is a possibility that the vote may be: Hoover, 8; Roosevelt, 502. This last is not a Democratic claim, but the non partisan conclusion of the Digestion the basis of its poll, which, if it reflects anything Ike the accuracy of the former polls of the magazine, will be approximate ly correct. The Digest continues to show Pennsylvania in the Roosevelt ranks. Even many Democrats doubt that ; prediction, but if on election day Pennsylvania should go Democratic, it would be no more remarkable than the overturn in Southern States in the 1928 election. Democrats may look at these predictions with tre mendous satisfaction, but they should also look upon I them not only as a sign of victory but as an incen tive to labor that in the last days of the campaign, when every weapon will be used by the Republicans, the great present advantage shall not be lost. ¥ Hold Everything! Norfolk Virginian-Pilot One week from tomorrow the Presidential campaign will come to an end. During the few days that re main, as in the fortnight just passed, the air will be charged with the fumes of sulphur. The campaign has entered the final lunatic stage, when the business of arguing the voters into a certain line of action gives way to the nefarious business of frightening them into a line of action, All the reasoned arguments have been exhausted— by both sides. There is nothing new to say to the j mind. The effort of the party spell-binders from now on will be to say something to appeal to the emotions, on, the theory that a last-minute accession of fear or hate may undo six months of thinking. In the last few days we have seen the usual parade of hate-inspired irrelevancies. We have heard again the old„ story that Hoover was a British voter and a sweater of mine labor—the first rumor contradicted by the State Department, and the second by President Hoover himself. We have seen ex-l'resident Coolidge seek to poison the public mind against Governor Roosevelt by con trasting his birth to wealth, position, and expensive education with Mr. Hoover's birth to poverty, ob scurity, and education self-acquired. We have seen an effort to disinter the religious is sue of the 1928 campaign and give it another whirl in the political arena. We have seen the Secretary of the Treasury sol emnly assuring a Toledo audience that the choice in this election is between Hoover and rescue and Roose velt and ruin. t , We now behold Representative James M. Beck, of Pennsylvania, a former Solicitor-General of the ed States, and a student of American government 4p?r ought to be ashamed of himself for saying such a , thing, warning a Boston audience that if Roosevelt j wins "the forces of radicalism will have triumphed, and the |>ossible result will be, if these radical forces control the government for four or eight years, to con- I vert this proud republic into a bastard imitation of I the Soviet regime at Moscow." The Virginian-Pilot's considered advice to the vot j ers is to disregard completely, for the remainder of | the campaign, every political speech they hear over ' the radio or read in the newspapers. Insofar as they | rehash the old campaign material they can add to I nobody's enlightenment. Insofar as they develop new campaign material they are certain to be fourth-rate baloney. It would be a relief to the people s frazzled nerves and make for a clearer mind on election day, if every body would tune out every political speech and disre gard every newspaper report of such speeches from now until the morning of November 9. There is ab solutely nothing useful to be learned from them that has not already been learned by every person who has kept his mind alert and ears open during the past year. Vote your convictions or preferences as they have . been formed by your observation and thinking of the | past few months. Do not permit the iast-minute I bogies of the campaign to modify them in any way. I I hey are one and all oratorical fakes. Ihe time has arrived to pinch one's nose against the last-minute sulphur-fumes and to close one's ears against the last-minute warnings of economic and so cial hell-fire. Save for the lunatic fringe the campaign of 1932 is over. Hold everything! Vote on the basis of your convictions as they were matured before the lunatic phase of the campaign began. No new idea developed during the billingsgate period is worth remembering. 1 9 • public regsitry of Martin County in ' Book S-l, at page 174, said deed of 1 ' trust having been given for the pur-J pose of securing a certain note of* even date and tenor therewith, and de-1 fault having been mad*>4n the pay-1 ment of said indebtedness, and the stipulations contained in said deed of trust not having been complied with, the underisgned trnatee will, on Sat uray, December 3, 1932, at 12 o'clock noon, in front of the courthouse door 1 in the town of Williamston, North Carolina, offer for aale for cash thej following described property: t A house and lot in the town of r - ■ , . w I ( Williamston, North Carolina, on Syca , more Street, adjoining Sycamore I Street on the east, the property of j Elijah Brown on the northwest, the ! property of George W.
