Mr. Barber briefly told how hides were brought in from all sections of the country, and from foreign sources, and tanned by the local plant. Modern methods and treat ment was also discussed, and the general operation of the cut .sole plant, operated in connection with the tannery. The cut sole plant utilizes a greater part of the hides tanned in the other part of the plant. Besides giving employment to about 230 men the year round, the plant buys about 3, 000 tons of tan bark each year, which means thou sands of dullars for farmers anil woodsireri. Chestnut extract, which is pro duced at both the paper mills in Canton and Sylva, is another im portant item with the tannery, and large quantities running into mil lions of pounds, are used each year. Among the superintendents of the plant, have included Cam Fisher, who joined the company in 1907 and was superintendent until 1923, when succeeded by L. M Richeson. Mr. Richeson held the place until his death in 1941, when Frank Compton, assistant superin tendent, was promoted to the place. Mr. Barber is now superintendent, having been named to the position after Mr. Compton requested he be given his old place as assistant.

Chicago Stockyards .lammed With Beef After Price Rise CHICAGO Record shipments of livestoc k jammed Mid - western stock yards, giving promise of a plentiful supply of steaks, chops and roasts in butcher shops within a week. Housewives in some cities in the Fast and Midwest found more meat on shop counters today as a result of last week's stockyard receipts. Hut the major packers Armour, Swift, Cudahy and Wilson entered the market today for the first time since the end of OPA Their entry was expected to speed the distribu tion of fresh meats. The major packers had refused to pay the higher asking prices for livestoc k. Their entry into the mar ket meant that order buyers agents w ho buy livestock for which they have received specified orders --v.il! not have competition. Trade sources agreed that retail meat prices will be higher, with estimates ranging from five to 14 cents per pound. Sellers Wait The price situation on other foods, dry goods, and rents gener ally was static throughout the coun try, following last week's increases in some lines, while sellers waited to see what Congress would do about the OPA. In nine major Midwest stock yards today sellers offered more than four times as many cattle as they did a week ago, and six times as many hogs. The heaviest cattle run since last February 12 swamped Chicago's Union Stockyards, the largest in the world, and spokesmen fqr the "Big Four" packers indicated that they expected the increased re ceipts to continue. The Chicago yards received 22, 000 cattle in one clay this week. CIO Sends Eight Men To Organgize W. N. C.

The re cruiting team from Franklin, with SS(;t West in charge, is at the Post Office every Wednesday to explain the qualifications for the jobs, to c ivilians as well as former sci vice men, and invites all per , sons to talk the opportunity over with him. "W Ol'LD YOU ALL LIKE TO Bl' Y SOME MONEY, SUH?" BERLIN IPs forbidden to sell, trade or otherwise deal in U. S. Treasury notes 'greenbacks to youl in Berlin, but one resourceful GI, presumably from the South, side tracked the regulations. When an unsuspecting German black marketeer complained that L'. S. currency seemed to be losing its value, a currency-wise Ameri can officer decided to investigate. The Ge rman, he found, had pur chased several worn Confederate bills at a fabulous rate of exchange. CHINESE "LOSE FACE CHICAGO. A Chinese store keeper lost $500 to three Chinese burglars who were arrested, but saddest of all was Mayor Jerry Moy of Chicago's Chinatown, who said: "We have lost face." "Such a thing never has happen ed here before," Moy said. Police Captain William H. Doyle expressed belief it was the first time in the history of the city's Chinatown that one of its members had been arrested for burglary.

CHIEF TAIU1 ET Hanut The United Slates has now icplaccd Great Britain and is lar in front of Spain, Turkey, Chiang Kai-she k's China and even the Vatican as the No. I target of Russia propagandist attack. Day after day in the Russian press and over the Russian radio American foreign policy and American domestic developments are being described m highly critical, even sinister, terms. For the moment, at any rate, the United Slates has become the villain in the piece. The picture of this country which is being presented to the Russian people and to the outside world is that of a wilful, domineering, antidemocratic and imperial istic forces which, driven by reactionary eleme nts al home and allying itself with fascist remnants abroad, i:, seeking impose its will on the rest of the world. FRANCO AND UN Eclair Ansel Mowrer It is now pretty well taken for granted that the United Nations Security Council will decide- not to throw Francisco Franco out of the Spanish du taloi ship where he was placed by Hitler and Mussolini. Some of the countries that oppose intervention may be moved by a fear of possible Spanish Communism. But cithers have a genuine feeling that once ou accept the theory that the United Nations have a right to toss out rulers whom you do not like, you never know where that sort of business Will end. At the same time, almost every statesman loelay is aware that non-intervention of the c lassic al sort fails to (it the atomic world. Chapters VI and VII of the United Nations Charter authorize collective intervention by the Security Council. It is supposed to intervene to prevent war. But so far as the United States is concerned, incoherence is the rule. Under various Inter-American agreements, our Administra tion is committed to a policy of mutual non-intervention. EGYPTIAN SNAG Richard Mowrer Weeks ago the Anglo-Egyptian treaty talks hit a snag. They've stayed stuck ever since and it looks as if negotiations, as initiated last month, will simply he junked in favor of a fresh and broader approach. Instead of being treated as solely an Anglo-Egyptian matter, the problem of British evacuation of l'.git and where to go from there would be treated on the basis of a regional defense scheme, affecting all Mid-East stales. This idea is thought to have been the main inspiration behind the recent meeting of the Aral) kings and chiefs of slate called together hy Farook. Like the British, the Mid-East monarch is fearful of Rusisan influence. The' problem of Egypt's rulers is that lhe are under pressure of public opinion to gel the British out and, in fact, most of them do want the British out - hut not out of easy hail ing distance. ALASKAN HACK DOOR Marquis V. Chil.ls When top-flight Americans wanted to fly into Russia by the back door, it took all sorts of negotiations. Special restric tions were applied on these flights. One visitor who went in that way was Secretary Wallace. Wendell Willkie, at the con clusion of his "One World" journey, flew out by the back door to Alaska. Planning and construction of the base al Point Spencer was a top secret in its beginning phase. But Soviet flyers flew back and forth across llml area almost at will. About what is happening in the eastern tip of Siberia, we know nothing or next to nothing. It is a certainty, however, that the Soviets, with their far-reaching intelligence system, know the exast status of our Alaskan defense. What is printed here will not be. news in Moscow. If the U. S. had imperialistic aims that in any way involved Soviet Russia, then the first place to establish bases would be where the two borders are only 54 miles apart. This country has shown no intention of fortifying our side of that border. What Russia is doing on the other side is only one small part of the great unknown. WHAT DEMOCRACY NEEDS Dorothy Thompson The life of a free democracy depends on its being in equilib rium. Extreme actions creating extreme crises usually create extreme reactions leading to new crises. That has almost the regularity of a natural law. It is, for instance, impossible to explain Fascism except by reference to what preceded it, which, though opposed to it, facilitated its triumph. The Black Shirt march on Rome followed a series of paralyz ing strikes in key industries, which caused a large part of the people to shout for order, at any price Musseilini furnished the order "for the price of despotism. The trains, you remem ber, ran on. time. It is thus incumbent on all leadership to weigh in the balance not. merely rights and gains, but human needs and logical consequences. Otherwise the scale, with demands piling up on one side, may be lipped by oppressions on the other. Democracy rests on the "goldrn" mean, and the golden mean is the product of a spirit, not merely a "program." It is the child of reason and affection and may these soon rule once again in America. FRENCH ELECTIONS Walter Lippman There is a moral for us in France's elections. It is that democratic liberty, where it has really taken root, is not de cadent or dying in Europe. We are underestimating its vitality, and we tend to forget that though it is a good thing which it surely is only the people of each country can preserve it. The democracies will preserve democracy. Where there is no democracy, it will take a long experience to develop democracy. What we can do is to preserve the peace, to see to R that Europe does not have to become a, battiof ield and to be mobil ized and rent by civil war. v The less we fuss and fret, meddle and lecture1, the better. The less we sponsor the parties we prefer, the better for them. We can contribute only embarrassment by supporting them. Our business is to concentrate on peace on preserving what peace we have, on expanding it as best we can. In that peace, only In peace, can democracy and the liberties of men eurvive and flpuish. v. y. .
