September 10, 1936 Editorial Correspondence Marseille, Aug. 21, 1935 After leaving Paris at 7:50 this morning, I arrived at Marseille at 7:25 this evening, covering a distance of 567 miles. We passed through a beautiful country, most of the time running in the valley of a river, with hills on either side. We traveled down the edge of the river much of the way and pasesd through per haps two dozen tunnels, some of considerable length. We stopped a short while at Lyons, the second city of France, and the greatest silk manufacturing city in Europe and I think in the world. The hills and bluffs are high, and the Little Alps Mountains, which appear to be about 1,000 feel high, art plainly discernible on the west of the river. The foothills of the real Alps are to be seen to the north. Southern France is the home of the grape and many other fruits. Field after field are covered in olive trees. The olive is an important item of export from France. Like most of southern and central Europe, grain and hay are the most important crops pro duced. 1 saw the first corn today that 1 have seefcjn Europe, and the crop appears to be very |>oor antPis now suffering for rain Another reason for the |xiur crop is that the French |x*ople do not half plow their land. Plowing with two and three horses is a com mon sight, yet the furrows are notxto exceed 3 inches deep. I also saw two mules today, the first 1 have ~ seen on this side of the Atljmk.?l'ltev seem in use horses for their work animals almost exclusively. I have not seen a poor horse over here. They all look to be well bred and well cared for. Marseille is the third city in size in France and the chief seaport, with tailroads leaing to alt |>artx of the Republic The population is how aboUl one million.'" Practically all the houses are built of stone and many of them are 500 years old and in good condition. It ?perhaps costs less t^ build of stone than of wood here;? as every hill seems to be solid rock, much of it of a limestone formation. Much road building is now go ing on and much public work is being done. Heavy telephone lines are being constructed leading south from Paris right down to the Mediterranean. Some machinery is being used to build the roads, but man power is the chief item. The people of France go in a rush. Every railroad station seems crowded with rushing people. Leaving Paris early thie morning, we found the sidewalks lined with thousands of people, selling practically all that people need to eat, as well as truck loads of flow er. I find France, much like England, a land of flowers. Our party, which is called No. 7, left the main group of tourists at Paris this morning. It is composed of 14 people, 3 from Texas, 1 from Oregon, 1 from Kan sas, 1 from Missouri, 1 from Indiana, 2 from Nebras ka, 3 from Oklahoma, 1 from Colorado, and 1 from North Carolina We leave here at 4 p. m. for Alex andria, Egypt, and the Holy Land. In the party are one young married couple, five elderly ladies ranging around the 60-mark, three men with gray hair, and the other member are young men, all preachers. News is a very scarce article over here?that is, good news or home news, which is always the best. W. C. Manning. Unhnanced War Talk After feeling out the world with frightful war talk during the past several months, the war lords are said to have about given up hope for arranging a bloody struggle and there are possibilities now for peace, tem porarily, at least. Diplomats have worked night and day trying to preserve peace for themselves, and, in cidentally, save Ethiopia, but it is the guess of some that non-payment of the last war debts now is the ing huge, sums of money pre(>aring for war, but the resources available in Italy will hardly support a great war, and those (icople who lost their savings in ad vancing the World War can hardly be expected to accept doubtful investments offered by the war lords. It is certain that had the investors drawn their in terest and had been repaid their loans in advancing the great war, credit, no doubt, would be available to finance another-great struggle so soon. The holders of worthless German bonds and other bubble securi ties are content to hold only one bag instead of two, so to speak. She Chose the Safer Plan Mor gat on Aews-Herald. Yesterday morning's daily papers told the story of an automobile wreck in which two young people lost their lives near Mooresville, Kathleen Ferrell, 16, of Mooresville, and Robert E. Lee, jr., of Albemarle. Just jttittQo the accident which cost them their lives one of their companions, Dorothy Plummer, another 16-year old Mooresville girl, deliberately left the car because she said she did not want to ride further with the drunken driver, Robert Kearns, of Badin. Her action probably saved her life and showed rare judg ment on the part of a young girl. If more people -would absolutely refuse to stay in a car driven by a drunk, preferring even to walk and staying alive to riding to likely death, the' toll on the highways would be somewhat reduced. The Mooresville girl is to be commended oft the exercise of good sense. ? The Ordinance Against Peddling Morganton Slews-Herald The Tihvn Council pased this week an ordinance which has btm needed for some time and one which will lie pleasing to the merchants of the town. By it all forms of soliciting or peddling are prohibited. Ex ception is made,- and rightfully so, of farmers who sell their own produce and of individuals who seek the sale of products of their own labor. For years Morganton has been "pestered" by out of town itinerants who canvassed the town, some of them rather regularly, and it is high time that local merchants, who pay taxes and help support the com munity in various ways, be given protection against such unfair com|ietition. The council is to be com mended for the ordinance against peddling. WantS FOR RENT: 5 ROOM APART ment. Rental includes hot and cold water, steam heat and janitor service.
