W THE WOMAN'S LEAGUE I OR REPEAL NON PART I SAN t Announcement in Wedneaday'a Ashevillo Citizen that "Repeal Week" will be observed next week, beginning Wednesday, is interesting. Statement is made in the announcement that a "drive" for new members and con tributions will be made. Further statement is that the organization of women, under Mies. Sourne and Mrs. Mclnturff, "is non-partisan." Is it non-partisan? If it is non-partisan, why did Rob ert R. Reynolds, candidate for the United States Senate on a wet plat form, make all the arrangements for the appearance here a few weeks ago i>f Mrs. Mclnturff and former Con gressman John H. Small? It is said that Mr. Reynolds is the gentleman who called ladies of Brevard, and made arrangements for the repealers, pleading with this one and that one to act as chairman of the meeting and introduce the speakers who were com ing here under auppice3 of this same woman's league which is now de clared to be "non-partisan." Looks to us like this league is moat partisan ? in Mr. Reynold's behalf. If not, why is that gentleman taking the lead in making the dates for the speakers who go out for the league. Senator Morrison is also candidate for re-nomination and re-election. He is not in favor of repeal, and he is not making dates for Mrs. Mclnturff, John Small, and so on. Tain Bowie is a candidate for nomination, running against Mr. Reynolds. He is not mak ing any dates for the Mclnturff group. Frank D. Grist is also a can didate against Mr. Reynolds. He is not making dates for the Mclnturff group of repealers. Mr. Reynolds is the only avowed "wet" candidate among the Democratic aspirants to the Senatorship, and he is the only one of the number engaged in calling over long distance telephone, urging first this person end then another, to sponsor these wet meetings. Far be it from us to dispute the word of a woman, but when the state ment is made that the league is non partisan while Capt. Bob Reynolds is doing the stage directing, there is at least a very serious doubt created in the mind of the average laymen as to the accuracy of the statement. HIGHWAY 284 PROMISES MUCH FOR THIS SECTION. Brevard is not alone in appreciat ing the promises of increased busi ness as a result of competition of Highway '284. Waynesville sees good business for that section coming by way of this popular route. The Waynesville Mountaineer, always alert tc the advancement of llaywood county, in speaking of this route this week, said: When Highway 284 is paved, lead ing into Waynesville from Brevard and South Carolina, we will be con nected with the section of the country from where most al! the tourists come, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. This new improved highway will save approximately 70 miles for the tourists and will bring them over one of the most beautiful scenic high ways east of the Rockies. Waynesville is destined to become the highway center of Western North Carolina. We already have Highway No. 10, "Main Street of North Caro lina," passing through here. When Highway No. 284 is paved and the Soco Gap road completed into the park, with Highway No. 209, which leads to Knoxville, and has always proved to bo a popular drive with the tourists, these highways are certain to aid in bringing many tourists to Waynesville. Very few cities the size of Way nesville can boast of as many leading highways entering and passing through their city as can Waynesville. Where there are lots of good roads and scenery as found in and near Waynesville the tourists will be found in large numbers. Ruffin Wilkins is telling of a good customer who came into the Blue Bird last Saturday, ate 20 cones of cream, one after another, and then called for a pint of cream to take along with him, to eat on the way home.

You may not play golf, but the fact remains that your summer tourist business depends largely upon golf. Not many people are going to a resort town where there is no golf course. There is direct connection be tween the golf course here and your business, that is, if you hope to do business with the summer tourist. Summer is upon us. Have you writ ten to any of the people who were last year, or the year before, asking them to return to Brevard for the summer? There is no other method quite so ef fective as direct personal appeal to the summer tourist. You can help yourself and your city by taking the time to write a few letters to the people who have been with you be fore. SEE "COOL KNIGHTS" May 19 and 20. QUEBEC NEWS j The B. Y. P.
