Campaigning Already And For What? Since he has been governor. Clyde R Hoey has spoken in a number of eastern counties. It is admit ted the governor is an able talker, that possibly he enjoys talking, but is it possible that the chief is do ing all this talking just because he enjoys it? His fre quent appearance in this section where Mac Donald went on a rampage just a little over a year ago may mean the governor is trying to repair some holes in the fences and keep in the fold a lew straggling votes that will be needed in years to come. The way the governor is getting around these days would indicate he is planning to run for the governor ship again and against Ralph Mac Donald, at that. The governor's visits into this section are gaining |iim a lot of friends, and eastern jieople, generally, recognize him as their governor more than they did some of those chief executives born right in the east rn cradle Speak on, Mr. Governor, and rememlier that the more you champion the rights of the people and the more stgess you place on secondary road improve ments, the more friends you will gain in this section. Approval But Not Support In his fire-side chat the other night, Alfred I-an don, former Kansas governor and Republican presi dential nominee, said: "Liberty and freedom Should enable all who want to work to get good jobs at good wages." His party never made much of a record tow aid that end, but it is tuday heaping criticism upon the present Democratic administration in trying to do just that. Continuing Mr. Landon said, "Liberty and free dom should mean that men and women have decent hours of work and satisfactory working conditions." The sweat shop has flourished in the past, but the New Deal has done much to outlaw the practice. Yet, the New Deal is censored, charged with going com munis tic because it bends down to help the laboring man or woman. Again, Mr. Landon said, "Liberty and freedom should mean a fair distribution of the rewards of production and should prevent an unhealthy con centration of wraith and economic power in individ ual hands. Here, it is hard to tell who is speaking, I'resident Roosevelt or his opponent in the last cam paign. Mr. Landon knows how wealth was centraliz ed, and he knows how it is being decentralized. And while he ma> be sincere in his statement, does he honestly brlievr the Old Guard, his associates or su periors, would ever agree to any move or threat to decentralize great wealth? It is contrary to the rec ord. And again. Mr. Landon said, "Liberty and freedom should mean that a man may have the opportunity to acquire possessions of his own, business of his own, and that the corner grocer will not be discriminated against, either by great privileged competitors or by government .'* Too often in the past, great business organizations have dictated the government policies and eliminated competition in the directors' meeting rooms. ( 'Mr Landon s aims as outlined in his chat run a close |iarallel to the acts of President Roosevelt and the New Ileal And, yet, Mr. Landon in the same that charge- the President with failure as an adminis trator. Mr Landon, idol of two states, voices his approv al but withholds his support. Educators To Themselves (?nensboro Sews One of the latest contributions to educational thought and progress in North Carolina comes from a meeting of the state high school principals last week at Winston-Salem where, it b the Winston-Salem Journel reporting, those in attendance "nodded agree ment to a declaration that the state must participate in federal aid if it hopes to have schools on a par with other states." . ' For our part, let it be said at the outset that wte do not have the extreme fear which some opponents of federal aid seem to have over Washington dicta torship of the schools as a result of federal financing. Some more or lev. satisfactory agreement might be worked out as has been done in fields served by oth er federal grants There is, to be sure, inherent dan ger of a school pattern not cut to meet our particu lar needs and problems, for it must be readily agreed that a government agency which supplies the money has the right to say how that money shall be spent. But we find ourselves more interested in the ap proach and the particularist views of the principals' s|*aker, S. G. ("happell, of the Charles L. Coon high school in Wilson, to which general agistment b re [xirted to have lieen given. Principal Chappell aver red, among other things, that New York spends five times more on its schools than North Carolina does, that much of the difference goes to higher salaries for teachers although a considerable part b diverted to greater educational services, that if our children are going to compete with children in other sections of the country the schools of North Carolina need mon ey from all over the country behind them, that there is nothing to fear from federal dictatorship of the schools, that Norjh Carolina schools are already con trolled by a dictatorship from Raleigh and that "fed eral control couldn't be any worse than what we have now." , Crop Control Law Is Expected From Special Session Remainder of the Roosevelt Program May Go Over to Next Year Washington? Enactment of crop control legislation and little else is expected from the extraordinary session of congress summoned to meet November IS. President Roosevelt assigned the special session a five-point program but scarcely could have believed it would be completed by the time congress adjourns shortly before Christmas. After crop control. Mr. Roosevelt asked enactment of legislation for proper land use, establishment of minimum wages and maximum hours, reorganization of the execu tive departments and amendments to strengthen anti-trust laws Whether crop surplus control shall be by compulsory or volun tary methods must be determined undoubtedly is the will of a major ity of its members by voting the ad ministration the requested powers. Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace leans to compulsory opera tion, but Chairman Marvin H. Jones of the house agriculture committee has plunged for voluntary control the administration is likely to com promise on that one. Outside the terms of the prospec tive bill itself, an obstacle arises in the senate where it has been agreed that the first order of business after farm legislation shall be the anti lynching bill passed by the house last session. Southern senators have filibuster ed such legislation before and prob ably will do so again. The filibuster might begin informally and unavow ed in the prolonged senate discus sion of crop control. But an over large cotton crop will tend this autumn to persuade southern slates men to aid the administration in any program to sustain prices Development of a crop control compromise and determination of the anti-lynch bill debate easily may consume in the senate the five or six weeks of special session before the holidays If that were not enough There is an inevitable scn ate wrangle over neutrality and the implications of Mr. Roosevelt's Chi cago statement that America "ac tively engages in the search for peace' 'and contemplates a "quar antine" of offending aggressors. ? ? - Rotary Club Donates $42.50 In Prize Money The Rotary Club of Durham do nated $42.50 in prize money to club members who exhibited their ani mals at the 4-H dairy calf club show held at the Oak Grove school. A barbecue supper was served. Notice of Town Tax Sales I, W. B Daniel, tax collector for the town oT WilTiamstoh.
