The Human i i i Incidents and Observations ... .. I!y I'NCLE ABE- Hello Mount-dncers! Here I am with my "Human .Side" once again and all I know is just what ' they say" sum Uncle Zack Davis of Iron Duff was in town last week to attend, I pre sume, the sensational criminal as sault trial that came up from that township the same day. Mr. lavLs says the way his township has been lauded "to the skies" of late years by certain individuals as such a law abiding and model community is not altogether deserving "Al hot air." ho said. "There's good people down there of course, just like everywhere else; hut there's some that's not so pood- Just look at the ".stillin'. boot leggin' and stealin' that's been goin' on in Iron Dull' the past six months or so and look what we've got here to day!" 'Bout tight, Uncle Zack. There's folks in our township, same as elsewhere, who have the "yallar in their make-up" as my father used to say. and that "yaller" will show through all the white-washing that can be done. Did you ever notice how hard it is for moy-t folks to change their way of greeting or even vary it in the least? Some people always great you with an expression about the weath er, how hot or cold it is, etc. When its raining some invariably use the trite expression, "think its going to rain?' whilo otfiers never Mary from. ' Poin' any good?" These have both been worn to a "frazzle." and I can hardly stand them. Greet me with, "Hello"'' "Howdy!" or anything you would. But deliver mo from. "Air ye doin' any good?" Give me a nod or a smile but please refrain From greeting me with, "Think it's goin' to rain?" Well, Mr. Rditor. I've been plumb dumbfounded and humiliated for the last few davs the way people have been meddlin' in my personal affairs ye know. Ope man asked me why I had my hair cut so short- I told him as how I reckoned the barber took me at my word when I said,, "purty short all over.'' And that wasn't the end of it. Another feller had the nerve to ask me how much longer I was going to wear my white pants and straw hat, sein' that summer was about over- Well. I told this meddler that I might have to wear them till next spring when they would be in style again .if indeed they were in existence at that time, and if not that I could perhaps join George Hall's proposed nudist colony at that time. Tennessee Proposes "Loop" In Haywood (Continued from page one) possibility to build through the Tennessee area should bo foster i scenic route area. 1U- urged d. and not in- ture- and if he didn't, then later the error would b( corrected. Robert Latham dwelled on the slump in tourist business in this sec tion during the past five years, and maintained that the Par'kw.iv was the mam avenue of .approach to the park and that the tourist industry in this area-, should 'be. foseited and not in jured. Mr. Latham went into de ' ail as to what the. building of the Parkway th.ough North Carolina would do towards stabalizing the population in this area-. The section al advantages were dwelled upon at some length. Senator Reynolds in his usual en tertaining manner told Secretary Ickes that the parkway meant more to the state of North Carolina than any thing that could be presented to the state in a decade. "There are three points 1 want to stress I am a native and representa tive of the state. . I also represent ' 12:1,000,000'.. people and $ am an ex pert eye witness." he said, "I've traveled over the world and AMERICAN LEGION POST NO. 17 PRESENTS.

So Be There Side 0' Life Anecdotes and Humor But "they say" that a public suit of man. like a preacher, editor or w.iter, ha to put up with a lot just for the blessed (?) privilege of belli' one 1 suppose- In most places its not popular to preach against sin any more, so the preacher will gen erally compromise with sin and curry favor with the hypocrite, the cove teuus or worldly minded of his congregation- And few editois are hold enough now-a-days to champion the cause of sobnety, public decency and justice as they did in Henry Watersoti'.- day or even two decades ago. because it isn't considered good public policy any more, generally speaking. As the old colored preach er in Richmond, Va. used to say, "the world sho' do move." Yes. and times, customs, etc. also change so fast we can hardly keep pace. Judge Harding mentioned this mat ter of public standards of human conduct in his charge to the grind jury at Charlotte. 1 believe it was, a few days ago. You remember what he said about women smoking, drinking in general, and mairied men and women riding around in cars together- Such conduct, the judge said, once frowned upon and condemned al together, is now generally considered as being alright if not altogether 6tylish and popular. While there is a lot of truth in Judge Harding's statement, I doubt the wisdom of this learned jurist making public pro nouncement of the same. I know of two or three men here in Wayne.sville who interpret the judge's words as meaning his personal sanction of such conduct, but I feel sure that Judge Harding would not have such inter pretation given his remarks. Mr. Kditor. did you ever see a prancin' filly bein' broke in beside soni,. steady work horse? If s'o you can better understand th(, com parison I am a!xut to make, the dif ference being that the woman in question wasn't a "filly'' any more. 'Tother day Uncle Abe observed a man and woman walkin' down the street, and you just orter have seen the .difference in their gates'' The woman took little "tigetty." prancin' steps and made a lot of noise with it all, sorter like tap dam-in'. Looked like she was just goin' to walk right oil' from her old man (I suppose he was) every minute, but she never got it done, because there seemed to be a lot of lost motion about her. But th,, old man. well He walked with all ease, In a long, lazy stride, And didn't seem to notice The prancin' by his side. But maybe they match up better in other respects I hop,, so. .'there is no country on earth that ex cells Western North Carolina for scenery. It is the land of inspiration." . Congressman Doughton told Sec retary Ickes that if the- territory around Liiiville Falls had not been so thickly populated that the Great National Park would have been built there: rather than in the western part of the state, this, he said, was be cause of the scenery- "There is not any scenery in Eastern America that can compare with that of the pro posed North Carolina route." he con tinued. "The parkway will benefit neglect ed people it will bring permanent relief to them, and by building the parkway along the route as proposed nv the state highway commission it will hp conforming with what it was intended " he concluded. The five speakers consumed one hour and ten minutes, which left a twenty minute limit for a rebuttal by- Senator Bailey. . Frank Webster, the Tennessee high way engineer, also had maps and pho tographs and took extreme care in pointing Out the intended "loop" which WouUI give two entrances into the park cine at Gatlinburg and one from Hartford via Soco Gap. Mr. Webster's chief contention was that Tennessee offered a wide variety of scenery, from mountain tops to streams and coves, while North Car THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER olina was wanting only a mountain top route- ' North Carolina already has 20 miles more of the parkway than we are .-king for," h,- continued. Ik- then bioughl in the fact that the special a!v:.-ory committee f Sccietary Ickes had eported in ta vor of 'leniii-.-see which could not be ignored- Genei U Kennedy impressed on Sec letary Ickes that Tennessee was the tir.-t to begin the p..rk "our part was tile nest ege. ne saiu. e v no time in acquiring thousand of acres, and have worked untiringly ever since." General Kennedy brought in historical facts which had little or no bearing on the parkway except to show that Tennessee had contributed much to the making of the nation. Congressman Will Taylor termed North Carolina as selfish and greedy, in that she wanted not only more than half of the parkway, but all of it. H.. even hinted that the drawings as presented by Mr- Browning for North Carolina were "imaginary, and not accurate. Congressman Tay lor told Secretary Ickes that "it is purely an Asheville project." This was said in direct reply to the argu ment presented by Mr. Lathan, of Asheville, He also went into detail of the beauty of the Roan Mountain sec tion, which wos one of the strong points presented by Tennessee. Senator McKellar, on whom Ten nessee is depending to a large de gree to get them the route, produced and read the report of the advisory committee to Secretary Ickes-, He began with the beginning of the pro posed parkway, when it was agreed that it would be a three-state propositionVirginia- North Carolina and Tennessee. "It has been mutually agreed that th,, route be a 'half jand-half-route' instead of one state having it all And considering the renort of the advisory committee it doesn't seem possible, to adopt any other route." he said earnestly. "North Carolina already has over one-half the route and now wants it all," he concluded. Senator Bockman made an enter taining plea, terming Tennessee as North Carolina's red-headed step child. One of the senator's remarks brought forth much laughter when he said, "Mr. Secretary, you can stand on the high peaks m Tennessee and tickle the toes of angels." "And I believe," he continued. "That when the Lord restrtl the seventh day he looked down on Eastern Tennessee and said, 'Behold- it is good.' ' The remaining thirty minutes of Tennessee's time was taken by Gov ernor McAllister, who gave a summa ry of the entire case in an Impres sive manner. His main points being th,, committee's recommendation and the fact that North Carolina already had a great portion of the parkway. Senator Bailey then presented , in 18 minutes a fitting and climaxing and impressive argument for North Carolina. "If the park-way is routed solely on it.s merits, then North Carolina will be satisfied." the senior Senator said. "There are no tourist hotels in East, ern Tennessee, because they come to Western North Carolina," ''Since this is to be a National Scenic Parkway, why should a route be chosen that would compell millions of people to spiral down to the levels 'of seven rivers, while in North Car. olina the route is nil top of the moun. tains which afford scenery that can not he had from; the bottom of val levs?" . ' Senator Bailev received a round of applause from the large North Caro lina delegation at several different intervals of his address. In the remaining two minutes Gov ernor Khringhatis thanked Secretary Irkes for the courtesy he h id shown North Carolina, not only at the hear ing Tuesday, but on all other former occasions. Mr. Browning handed then to Sec retary Ickes an official map which he asked to be compared -with the draw ings from which he had made his talk. This was done to over-ride the "hint"' on the part of Tennessee's speakers that the drawings were more or less imaginary. Secretary Ickes congratulated both states fo- their able arguments but gave no indication when he would render a decision other to say: "There will be no hasty decision, as it is too vital a question to both states. I will endeavor to arrive at a decision that will be fair and just, and will decide strictly on merits." Secretary Ickes also imtimated he would probably make a trip over the proposed routes before rendering hLs decision.
