CAPITAL LETTERS . By THOMPSON GREENWOOD In California BULL MOOSE? Governor J. M. Broughton can turn a pretty neat phrase now and then. Speaking to some Westerners a few days ago, he made the remark that "we are going to win this war, whether we elect a Democrat, a Republican, ,r Wendell Wilkie for our next Presi dent." The next day a New York paper ran a news cartoon on the comment, portraying Willkie as a cross be tween an elephant and a donkey. ROOSEVELT There is a great deal of anti-Roosevelt talk in the State, but most of it seems to come from freedom-loving Americans who are not used to being told what they can and cannot do. This war is so much bigger than any thing America has known before that even the experts do not know how to cope with situations brought on by it; consequently, rules and regulations go astray and consum ers and producers and the men in between become dissatisfied, and since there is only one individual to whom they can look for fault, Roosevelt must bear the blame. However, concensus in Raleigh is that Roosevelt will get the nomi nation at the convention next sum mer if he wants it. Most State officials seem to think Roosevelt will carry the State in much the same manner as ho did in 1932, '36, and '40. thought in the following lines from "Autumn'' that he was a mountain boy: "I thank God the world is as wide as it is, That 't is sweet still to hope and remember; That, for him who will seek them, the valleys are his And the far quiet hills of Septem ber." Of October he wrote: "The thought of old dear things is in thine eves. O month of memories." jll'l I I I I 'llllllipiWII' mil'll.l I HIHIIIIW Ill HATCH Although there is a law against Federal office-holders playing politics, there are strong indications that various fellows from Washington have been in the State within the past few weeks sounding out sentiment for a fourth term. The Hatch Act may get them if they don't watch out. They are here ostensibly on routine busi ness but they are having little talks with liberal leaders of North Carolina. It is said that they are getting fairly favorable reports. JOHN CHARLES McNEILL Thirty-six years ago this October John Charles McNeill died. Prob ably the most beloved poet this State has ever produced, he wrote of autumn often and well. Although he spent his youth along: the banks of the Lumber River in Scotland County, one would gather from the Time to Cook with Gas the Perfect' Fuel Economical Clean Quick Essotane Metered Service City gat convenience installed anywhere Brading Gas Service Buy War Bonds and Stamps. THE MAN On August 12 this column said: "Within the next two months you should read reports of a North Carolina man's race for a high national office, but it is all off the record now, so no questions." Now there is talk throughout the South of Governor J. M. Brough ton's candidacy for vice president. During the two years and nine months that Broughton has been in office he has done quite a bit of stirring around over the country, both in and out of the State, but the United States is a pretty big place and North Carolina's candi date for the place must keep al most constantly on the move for the next nine months if he expects his name to receive more than minor league rating at the conven tion next year. FIGHT Look for an interesting court battle over the State Board of Agriculture's attempt to close the Godley Brothers Livestock Mar ket near Charlotte. The permit has been revoked, but the market continues to stay in business. The Board claims the Godleys are not complying with the Livestock Law and regulations pertaining thereto. A Charlotte paper reported the other day that the brothers had asserted they would fight any move to padlock their place and that they "would not be convicted in any Mecklenburg County courts." The Attorney General is now prepar ing the case against them. Re cently the Asheville Livestock Yards received a hand-slapping from the State Board of Agricul ture and it is getting in line, ac cording to State veterinarians. Livestock markets have grown like toadstools in North Carolina during the past five years and they are all doing a trendous business. Agriculture officials are unanimous in the opinion that they have meant a great deal to the farmers. But they believe that their operators devote much more time to business than they do to sanitation. PVT. WILLIAM ROBERT DUCKKTT, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. O.
