feS 5 UQUOR IN WOODS IS LESS HURTFUL Nat Is the View of Clyde Hoey ;<tf Shelby On Repeal in This State # Mr. James W. Atkins of Gaston i-i has interviewed Clyde Hoey, noted i lawyer and political orator of Shelby, who has announced his opposition' to j, ■ t^je repeal of the 18th Amendment ;v i Mr. Hoey’s view is that, let others d: as they may, it is better for Noru Carolina to stick by the amendment. “It does not matter,” said Mr. ^ Hoey, “that 24 States have alreadv Voted in favor of repeal. I am strong ly in favor of Ncrth Carolina's voic ing her own sentiments, uninfluenced X by outside forces and without resard > to the action of other States.” i Replying to a query as to his posi tion on this important question and his reasons therefor, Mr. Hoey said: “I am opposed to the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. I am . - noit concerned over the popularity of the issue, I am familiar with all the arguments against prohibition. It does not matter that 24 states have already voted in favor of repeal. 1 am strongly in favor of North Car olina’s voicing her own sentiments Uninfluenced by outside forces and without regard to the action'of other States. Not a Party Question “The question of repeal is’ not properly a party question. In 192S, I took the position that it was no part of the business of the church to undertake to direct its members how to vote for President. I now take the position that it is no part of the function of the party to tell its members how to vote on the question of repealing the 18th Amendment, when an election has . been called for the purpose of de termining that matter. Each indi vidual citizen should be left free to express his cwn convictions at the ballot box. “I readily concede the good faith and patriotism of these who are ad vocating repeal in North Carolina, but I cannot follow their logic. They take the position that repeal of the profiibition laws will advance the cause of temperance. In other words, ■If., we • have more and better liquor we will have less drinking, and the way to promote sobriety is to provide plenty ef liquor and make it easily accessible at all t:mes. All' human hir.tcry contradicts this theory. The liqucr problem is not new. It is al most as eld as the race. We hav» tried practically every plan and all have failed. What do the repealists propose? Let each state regulate the traffic to suit itself, which means that either the state will engage in the liquor business or that it will li cense its citizens to manufacture and j sell liquor. This offers no improve-] ment. I Stock Arguments frr Repeal | “The repeal advocates make two slock arguments: (1) That prohibi tion is a failure and ttliat it has pro duced bootlegging, racketeering and a general crime wave: (2) That im mense revenue can be raised from the manufacture and sale of liqucr | and thus lower taxes. Neither of these arguments will stand up undo’4 analysis. The prohibition law is th > same sort of failure that the lav,4 against stealing and murder is :i failure. The narcotic law is violated constantly and there is widespread: bootlegging of dope by well-organ ized gangs in all the cities, but no-, body suggests repealing the law on i this account. \V'e have had more | murders during the past five years | than during any former period, but j it would be felly to argue that the , law against murder should be re pealed because it is being violated, j and that in order to stop killing i every person should be supplied, with a pistol. It is pure folly to j charge prohibition with the crime' wave. The manufacture and sale of linuor would raise some revenue, but liquor has never yet lowered “But we are told that if the amend ment is repealed that North Caro lina car. continue under its dry laws. This is a complete answer to all the arguments in favor of repeal if they are sincere in wanting North Caro lina to continue dry. Why? Be cause if prohibition has been the curse they say it has, we would still have all the evils of it here in North Carolina and the State would receive no benefit from tax money on liquor ] to help defray the expenses of the : State government. There is no point to the argument that prohibition is bad and ought to be repealed, and !vet, that, it is really not so bad, and therefore it would be all right for [North Carolina to continue as a dry j state, provided it will vote for re m Neuralgia Neuritis Backache Rheumatism Lumbago Sciatica .

Less Harmful in Woods “I am unwilling to share respon sibility for the return of liquor un der the protection and sponsorship of law. If we are to have liquor I be lieve it is less harmful when it hides in the woods* dodges through back allays and is kept in secret places, than when it stalks shamelessly up and down main street and openly bids fcr patrons. 1 North Carolina was one of the - pioneer states in advocating and practicing temperance. It has had convictions upon the liquor ques tion and . in many hotly fought con tests has dared to register its voice for temperance and sobriety. With cut regard to what others may d'o, it will be to the everlasting credit of this State if we people shall refuse to be swept along with the tide and shall hold true to their established conviction.” . Last One of Strong- Men Killed in Cuba Havanna, Sept. 2.—Jose Penate, believed to have been the last of the rtrcng arm squad of deposed Presi dent Machado, was killed Saturday afternoon and his body paraded through the streets in an open auto mobile. The authorities said executioners of the ABC revolutionary society killed Penate, who was a sergeant in the eld secret police organization. He was killed by fifteen bullets from a ’submachine gun, fired as he carhe out fighting from a house in which he had been hiding. A rope was put around the neck of the body and it was dragged to an automobile. Hundreds of motor cars followed in the parade through the streets, their horns blowing full blast, and their 1 occupants shouting. I Savannah Fights Plan to Cut Cotton I Savannah, Ga«, Sept. 2.—Backed by municipal authorities, civic and indus | trial leaders, the Savannah Cotton Exchange has declared war on the ! Federal Government's plan to reduce ! cotton acreage 40 per cent in 1934. I Mayor Thomas G. Gamble and Sa i vannah business men met with the exchange members and pledged their support toward blocking the drastic ; reduction. A. T. Gannon, president of the ex change, said the plan, if applied in the extreme, would take 25,000,000 acres out of cultivation. A million bales would be sliced off Georgia’s an nual crop with production dropping to a maximum of 700,000 bales, he GORED TO DEATH BY BULL J. T. Whitener, 65-year-old farmer, living near Hickory, was gored to death by a bull Saturday night. Whiteners body was found in front cf his barn Sunday morning. One of the horns of the bull had penetrated the groin, severing a blood vessel. The bull, covered with blood, had be come entangled in some wire and w’as found standing near the scene of the tragedy. The' animal belonged to a nearby dairy farm. Whitener is sur vived by his widow and 10 children. Build Uf> that Skinny Child!

The freedom of the pulpit was demonstrated Saturday when Atlan-! ta police, acting upon complaints, from several southside Atlantians, in- j vestigated reports of a preacher who i had recently been making highly un patriotic .remarks. From the wooden platforip of his tent in the neighbor-! hood he had praised Herbert Hoover and deiiOunced fiercely the Roosevelt regime. s> ! He declared that Hoover had been an instrument of God, but that Pres-J ident Roosevelt is an instrument of: hell. Roosevelt’s whole policy, the preacher charged, is, designed to con vert ArtHjnca into a-Catholic repub lic. He contemned the, NRA as a par ticularly . jmjph Jfevice. Police,-«p>th«-<etn^ahiing' mem bers of thSl preacher’s congregation, consjdered fcch utterances treason able, and «re about to set out to arrest the )pan who said all that. But calmer.tfcounsel pointed out that the city code contains no such of fense ,not even the comprehensive one of disoVderly conduct. Even the federal agents couldn’t do anything about it. And a preacher can legally; i ujjay “hell” and “the devil” front* his pulpit whenever he is so inclimfclf . so no case could be made on gjjminds of profanity. As things rested Saturday after noon, it looked as if the preacher could go right on with his jeremiads.

McQueen of Dunn Will De liver the Annual Discourse at ; Historic-Rally SOUTHERN PINES, Augr. 31.—On Sunday, September 17, Old Bethasda church at Aberdeen will hold a home coming reunion. In the morning in addition to special exercises the usual forms of worship will be observed. Dr. (Angus R. McQueen, o' Ounn, will oc cupy the pulpit. Dr. McQueen is the •son of Rev. Angus McQueen, for many years pastor of Bethesda, both I of them identified with the Presbyter ian church all their lives and widely known. 1 About noon dinner will be served in the big grove that surrounds this fa mous old church and cemetery, and in the afternoon a program will be ! presented which will deal to some extent with the remarkable history of Bethesda, which i£ the most active survivor of the beginning of the Pres byterian church in North Carolina. When Rev. Hugh. McAdoo was sent , down from Pennsylvania by the Phil l adelphia Presbytery to investigate the supplication from the North Carolina colony for a pastor for the little flocks that were forming here in the pine woods, he passed “down the Yad kin road”, as he noted in his diary of 1755, and preached at the house of Alex McKay, which is now the site Longstreet church, not far from Beth esda. He also preached at the “Bluff” ■above Fayetteville, and in the vicin lity of “Barbecue”, or Campon Hill. These were the three churches first formed, and they were a year or so i later delivered over to James Camp ! hell, another shepherd sent down by j the Philadelphia Presbytery to care j for the devout pioneers. Mr. Camp 1 bell was practically the father of the | local Presbyterian church, 'and he i stayed here until his death about 1781, during which period the increasing ar- , ! rival of settlers paved the way for j i Bethesda, which grew up from the overflow of the older group under Mr. i Campbell’s ministry. | j With the marked increase of popu-j lation in the Bethesda community a' I mere _ pretentious church hae been : i built in the village cf Aberdeen close j I by, but the old structure, flanked by , (the burial ground wherein are many. I of the old settlers as well as promi 1 nent persons of later day, is still the sanctuary to which church gatherings turn when, the old folks come back to the scenes of their younger days. j Walter Page, ambassador to Eng land during the World War, is bur ied at Bethesda. The State, as a trib ute to his great service, extended the hard-top road the short distance from Aberdeen to the cemetery, as many: visitors make the pilgrimage to the final abode of this famous North Car-' olina leader, student and statesman, I The Fogleman Legend ! . Country Making Quite i Stir Over Recent Electrocution j Clgy Fogleman, says the Raleigh News and Observer, seems about to become a legend. The Central Press, a newspaper picture syndicate serv ice, is broadcasting pictures under the caption that North Carolina is “stirr ed by a parallel to the famed Sacco and Vanzetti case.” i Such a report will undoubtedly in terest the readers far away. In North Carolina the similarity to the Sacco and Vanzetti case has not been noted by the natives. It must have taken a vivid caption writer with a vivid though somewhat careless imagina tion to think it up. I a here is, however, an unusual in- ‘ terest in the question as to whether Fogleman was guilty of the crime for which he was executed. Strangely erough, the question in the mind of, the State grew largely out of the unwillingness of the Governor to al-' low the execution until he had heard, everybody who wanted to say any thing about the case. If the Governor! had allowed Fogleman to die without any respite the probability is that no legend would have grown. Instead, naturally reluctant, the Governor showed a kind-hearted man’s wish to be sure before he let a man die which looked at a distance like indecision as to whether or not Fogleman was guilty. 'The Governor decided deliber ately that he was. He ordered the ex-1 ecution. Fogleman’s attorney added to, the legend by marching down the “last mile” with his man. Another at torney in Gastonia listened to two panhandlers boast that they knew a thing or two about the case. While he phoned in last-minute drama to the Governor’s office, his panhandler informants disappeared from his door and from history. A clergyman gave the final impetus to legend, by sol emnly stating at the executed man’s funeral that he had been “foully mur dered” by the State. Now comes this final touch that Clay Fogleman was a victim of a State’s injustice in the same sense that Sacco and Vanzetti were. There has never been a suggestion . made that Fogleman was a martyr because Of radical views or that prejudice sat in the jury box at his trial. The only question was—and that was decided by a jury and probed by a Governor who did not relish ordering tq die whet her Fogleman was the man who brutally killed another man. Both the jury and the Governor decided that he was. Neither the judge nor the solicitor who tried him were willing < to urge clemency. So Clay Fogleman died. ... ’ Capital punishment is " en ugl* thing. In {forth Carolina it is exer* clsed generally poly, against the poor end the negroes. The negroes are usually sent to glory with little adot, More articulate sympathy attends the passing of the whites. Fogleman was of a high order in society as men gp to the electric chair. That made it pos sible to dramatize him and the bar and the clergy contributed other dej> tails of drama. ?;i. 1 These who feel strongly against capital punishment in general are jus# jtified in their sentiment against thii killing of Clay Fogleman.-But there are thin grounds for his legend. Yet I this legend, as legends have a habit I qf doing* has grows, lustily from the i.thinnest ground -t even at home, &n4 : new abroad it becomes a drama full grown to stir th? hearts of tbes: too, jjtgr pway to know the truth, h • * ^ li■ '4% • r ' *' •*wmwyy>i • • A*»fcv»nfc\ &i Woman FassengerTells oFT; Fall of Train Into River By QUINAH MOORE,, Passenger Aboard the Ill-Fated C<den State Limited A (Treat roar—a. pounding, and ut ter darkness. Those were the first warnings we passengers aboard the Golden State Limited had when the big train plunged into the river. Utter pandemonium followed the crash. The huge steel cars bounced around like toys. Passengers in the coaches screamed. I was hurled from my seat in the day coach—four cars from the head end of the train. > Bounced From Seat I bounced against a seat, and then fell into some other passenger. I think it was a woman, but it was too dark to tell. After that first moment of panic, and the screeching of steel beams in the car, there was utter silence in the train. I could hear the pounding of the water. I think everyone was too dazed to speak. Then some passenger turned on a flashlight. It revealed a strange bed lam of wreckage. The coach was turned over almost on its top. Suitcases, some of them opened, were strewn around the car. A news butcherV basket of ft-iiit, magazine* and cigarettes was littered all over the place. Most of the passengers were toss ed into one end of the coach, and they c ptared, white-faced and., wide-eyed, in to the dazfeling beam of the flash light. ■ . ,,, -4 H Under a seat we found the crumpled body of a man. He was moaning soft ly. It was the only sound in the car. Finally the man with the flashlight climbed to a window and smashed the glass with the little light. We could even hear the pieces pf glass as they tinkled along the steel aide of the coach;-. .V i * That broke the tension. A woman, in a nightgown, huddled next to me said, calmly: *’ , V “I .think I am hurt.” . I-believe'her ankle was broken. Climb Out Window ( I climbed out of the car through the broken window. It was getting light enough to see and in the grey of the dawn the train looked like a jumbled V> pile of jackstraws. Coaches were heaped on top of one another. Our coach was heeled over almost at the brink of the draw. The savage, muddy brown water, roared down the creek, formed into a huge wave as it struck the coaches in the stream, and then crossed on over theJ;op of them.
