A Famous Musician
The presence ! IV. Homer R.n.lelieuver .it
Lake Junaluska this week brings t ibis
area one of the hetter known evangelistic
musicians of our time. Dr. Rodehcaver has
been heard and admired bv thousands
throughout America. He is often mentioned
as the man with the trombone who worked
with "Billy" Sunday.
Dr. Rodeheaver is at the Lake, tiiroir.h
Sunday, conducting a sacred musical con
ference. This is just one of the many i'""l
programs being offered by the management
of Junaluska this summer.
Can The Surplus
Wednesday morn inn marked the openim;
f the community cannery here, which has
:iTved hundreds of housewives during the
past few years. The cannery, which is one
o. three in the countv, offers professional
m rvices. and modern equipment to the
Irrusewife who wants to make use of these,
.Hid at a nominal cost.
In the past few years, there have been
hundreds of busheii of perishable fruits
and berries, in addition to vegetables and
in 'ats that have been canned for later use.
Most Americans are wasteful people. .Most
of us give little thought to preservation and
Sc.'. in. We have ".rovvn to be the most ex
travagant people on earth.
The facilities of the community canneries
ar- there for the use of the public, and the
public should take every opportunity to u vellum.
Farmers Go Traveling
!'lans are already underwav for some 100
It., wood farmers to visit projects of a; ri
ceLural interest early in August. This i an
other uf th( educational and interestin:; trips
tl :.t are staged by the county agent's office
t-a. !i summer.
''hose who make the trip always come
ba k with new ideas, and a determination
to improve their farming practices. The
ti. .b are.jjays worthwhile and this is
pi'.ved by trjejfact that the tjroup continues
t- ,dw 'year after year. The expenses are
ki it' to a minimum and the entertainment
ti: route and places covered make it a ccn
ui:te inspiration to all who go.
The Raleigh News and Observer edho
rially urges that Governor Cherry, and his
designated successor, W. Kerr Scott confer
immediately on a special session of the leg
islature. This question of a special session of the
North Carolina law makers has been argued
for some months, as there are many who feel
there are certain adjustments as to salaries
and expenditures on buildings that should be
corrected, and not wait until the next regu
lar session meets in January of 1949.
Mr. Cneiry has not been inclined to be
tot) much interested in the special session,
while on the other hand Mr. Scott declared
strongly fur a special session during his cam
paign. The Raleigh paper feels Mr. Scott
should now back his pledges with a strong
recommendation to Governor Cherry.
In discussing the matter further. The News
and Observer says:
"Governor Cherry has not yet made up
his mind, but is understood to be fearful that
a special session would not be devoted to
emergency matters but would embark upon
i cneral legislation. That is a matter which
should be settled without great difficulty.
Governor Cherry and Mr. Scott should agree
among themselves as to what constitutes an
emergency and should then consult legisla
tive leaders.
"The next General Assembly and the next
Governor have already been chosen. Matters
of general legislation should be left to them.
Hut there should be a special session to deal
with unfinished business. There is no ques
tion but that if the General Assembly of
1947 had been able to foretell accurately the
unexpected increases in revenues and the
unexpected increases in living and building
costs, that more adequate appropriations
would have been made in 1947. Those ap
propriations should not be delayed for an
other six months. And there is no reason
why this unfinished business should not be
transacted under an informal agreement not
to take up new business, unless it is of an
emergencv nature."

Slow Checking
The State Motor Vehicle Commission is
rjettine, somewhat a little uneasy with own
ers of some 628,521.! motor vehicles in this
state for the slow nianii' i in which they are
having their vehicles inspected.
During the first six months of this year,
there have been 2Ml,24.'i vehicles inspected.
Just slightly more than a third in the first
six months.
What the commission is fearful, is that
many motorists will wait until the last
minute and then crowd the inspection lanes
beyond their capacity towards the end of
the year.
The traffic inspection lane is b; ek here for
the present, so it might be a e.ood idea for
Haywood motorists to get that checked
sticker and be on the safe side. The lane
will not be buck here until October.

Should people who are "ner
vous" try to have jobs?
Answer: As a rule, yes. A job
which you feel is too much for
you or which carries a load of
responsibility that really scares
you may intensify neurotic symp
toms, but in general almost any
thing is better for you than con
tinual idleness and "brooding."
Work alone will not cure a neuro
sis any more than "rest" will, but
whatever distracts your attention
from your troubles will help you
keep going until such time as the
circumstances which have aggra
vated the neurosis change, or
better still you can get psychia
tric treatment.
WASHINGTON The Washing
ton Criminal Justice Association
says 8.002 serious crimes were re-
ported to the police of the nation's
capital during 1947, an increase qif
23 percent over the previous year.
The association, formed in 1936
by leading citizens "to promote and
obtain an efficient administration
of criminal justice," explains, how
ever, that the increase is due most
ly to improvement in reporting
methods and is not indicative of
any great actual increase in crime.
Housebreaking, grand larceny, rob
bery and aggravated assault con
tributed the greatest volume of
serious offenses, the association
ays in its 12th annual report. Of
the crimes reported, the police
cleared 4.107 or 51.3 percent.
Over 10 years the Washington
Criminal Justice Association has
followed approximately 50,000
cases from original report to court
disposition. Formation of the asso
ciate was the result of congres
sional investigation of the local
crime .situation.
"Washington had an intolerable
crime situation in those days,"
says Edward 4. Flynn, managing
director of the association, in a re
port. He says that an analysis of
the capital's crime record for 1934
showed that "those who commit
felonies have approximately a 2
to 1 chance that no one will be ar
rested The changes are 6 to 1 that
no one will be indicted, 10 to 1 that
no one will be convicted, and 15
to 1 that no sentence will be serv
ed. In the event that a felon is
sent to prison the chances are 2V4
to I that he will be released on
parole.''
The committee said that "no im-

the situation, determines to wage
unceasing warfare against the
forces of vice and crime. "
"The citizen of any community
gels just as much protection as he
demands," says Mr. Flynn, adding
that one of the greatest threats to
democracy is disregard for the law
on the part of the citizens. "A con
tinuing and realistic vigilance is
part of the price we must pay for
the privilege of democracy.'' The
crime rate in any community, he
says, is indicative of at least par
tial failure on the part 6f the home,
the school, the church, the welfare
agencies, and the community as a
whole for its failure to provide
those things essential to the wel
fare of youth.
