NATIONAL EDITORIAL 351 lf C5T6" A If.KZVl tLilfAl'II!!! i Carolina vx usxunfl Thursday Afternoon, April 19, 1951 An Important Event Tuesday will go down in Haywood history as an important event, as the first official step towards' awarding the contract for the expansion of the hospital was started. The opening of the bids on Tuesday climax ed many years of careful planning, and study on the part of officials, and the citizens of Haywood at "large, in preparing for the ex pansion of the Haywood institution. It was about 18 months ago that the citizens voted overwhelmingly for the expansion of the hospital. Then came the long;, and tedious work of preparing blue prints, and getting the project approved by all participating, a gencies the county, together with state and federal medical officials. The climax on Tuesday in finding that the bids were under the estimated costs, means that work can proceed just as fast as the last technical details are removed within 40 days. The five-story structure will add space for 49 beds, and enlarge the general facilities of the institution by many fold. The citizen;; of Haywood have every right to be proud of what has gone, before on this, and look forward to about two years from now for the big "formal opening" of a hospit al just as modern as anything in this area. 'Truly, Tuesday was a great day for the future of this countv. If present schedules are met, General Mac Arthur will have addressed a joint session of Congress by the time this reaches our read ers. i ' Perhaps there has not been a controversy in recent years that has brought ate much comment, both pro and con, as the replacing of General MacArthur by President Truman. v By now, almost everyone has made up their minds and taken a definite stand as to wheth er the President was right or wrong in mak ing his decision. It was unfortunate for America, and all the Democratic governments, that the two lead ers did not get together, work out their dif ferences around the conference table, instead of airing them to the world. President Truman had tried to get the Gen eral to follow a policy based on a world-wide program. General MacArthur seemed deter mined to have his way, and center the spot light in the East. This brings to mind the interesting report made last January by an Associated Press renorter at a press meeting in Chapel Hill This reporter, just back from Korea, made the shocking statement that the events in Korea were merely a "side show" to what is likely to break out elsewhere. "The main circus," he reported, "will not be in Korea or the Far East. The Korean situation is a temporary attraction, in an effort to get us to take our eyes off other dangerous points." This was the appraisal of a man who had been in the thick of the fighting, and predicted many things, which have already taken place, and proven him right. ' t We should also keep this fact in mind; ! Stalin is an elderly man, he wants to realize an ambition of ruling the world. Many who; predict he will strike soon and base their be lief on the fact that Stalin had rather start war in an effort to get control of the world than to die without having tried. All this is mere speculation, to some de gree, but it goes right back to the beginning, that the conflict facing us now is a world-wide one. It is one in which we cannot afford to ignore any small area "where the outbreak might occur. Again, we regret that the personalities of President Truman, and General MacArthur, were not of such nature as would permit them to sit down and settle the whole matter. We hope, that in spite of the stubborness on the part of both, that everything will work out for the good of promoting peace on a world-wide basis. A'New Day For Mining Interest in mining took a new outlook in Western North Carolina as the House commit tee on Mining and Minerals visited the area Monday, and heard first-hand facts relative to4he needs in this section. Every national emergency brings o n a greater demand for scarce metals, and min erals. This has been true in the past, and will continue to be the case. Unfortunately, this area, has not been looked- upon by the government as having too much to offer in the way of "hidden wealth" in the earth. The House Committee, in coming here to 'gpt the facts, will be in a position to render assistance in helping develop the mineral re sources of the section. The program, launched by Rep. Monroe M. Redden, is a great step towards further de velopment of Western North Carolina.

Hope We Get One of the 105 We will not try to evaluate the entire pro gram of the General Assembly. Some things we would liked to have seen done that were not, and visa versa- Nevertheless, the Assem bly did one outstanding piece of legislation, in increasing the highway patrol of the state. The addition of 105 patrolmen, will under the law of averages, give Haywood another man. This is not official, but wishful think ing on our part. With the increased mileage in Haywood of paved roads, another patrolman, making six in all, will almost be a necessity. Our present force of five are doing a good job, but with additional miles of paved roads, the rural areas will need patroling more often. Had the Assembly passed a modified ve hicle inspection law, we would have been greatly benefited in North Carolina.

Should you feel hurt if your children leave home? I IK J, Do PeinitM Dentiat Hood as State Banking Commis sioner and put in W. VV. Jones, who for many years had been head of the State Credit Union here, In fact, this column said laM wc-k that Hood miqht be replaced. In 1948, Gurney Hood split his shirt among the bankers for Charles Johnson, Scott's opponent for Governor. However, since Scott's nomination and election no man in his administration has been more loyal or a more devoted follower of all things Scott than Gurney P. Hood. The Governor has about run out of surprises, if indeed this was c- Commissioner one. His appointments have almost ,clSh. come to an end. Kerr Scott learned to know and love W. W. Jones during his years as Agriculture Commissioner. Jones' office is right down the hull in the Agriculture Building from that of the Agriculture Commis sioner and in the days from 1937 through 1947 they used to visit each other quite a bit during slack hours. Jones ran for the House of Representatives from Wake Coun ty last soring, and backed bv the 3,000 State employees with whom he is very popular, came within an inch of winning. Hood forgot T948. Scott, exeel- lent at carrying and brooding oyer old grudges, could not. The credit unions, long attacked bv the banks as getting too much into the bank ing business, now have one of their most ardent champions as Head of banks of North Carolina This isn't to say that Jones is not a line, upright man. He is. But he is likely to bring a new ap- proaen io banking in North Caro lina. Scores of bankers who fol low the exchange fee system at tacked so vigorously during recent weeks hy Gurney P. Hood will be glad to see dim move on. Small loan companies with whom lie has also dealt right harshly during the past monih, will be jn the same boat with there non-par bankers.

Anawer: No. You woilld be V much more justified in worrying '" if they did not wish to do so, once they reach mature years. A young :M .person who prefers his parents' ' company to that of people of his ' own age, who cannot make de cisions without asking their ad vice, or who does not want to be 'Self-supporting has failed to grow ?up emotionally. And the more f parents oppose or discourage his becoming independent, the more a normal young person will feel that he simply must "get out on hU own" and ought to do so if te (or he) possibly can. : May a minor blemish ruin your life? Answer: It may seem to. I've known men and women who hon estly believed that a large nose, a iirthmark, or a barely notice able lameness made it impossible for them to feel at ease with others or to be accepted by them. Can you "rise above" pain and discomfort? Anawerj Relatively, yes. One part of your mind over which you have considerable, though not ab solute control is your attention, and you can learn to direct this away from yourself and your dis comforts more effectively than you are apt to realize until you try. You would forget an ordinary toothache if you saw a million dollars coming your way, and be coming interested In a task or problem may have much the same effect If you will give it a chance. Anyhow, you need not make your troubles worse by dwelling on them ' ; , ' TAYLOR VS. LARK1NS? Two oenservatives of the Legislature ended their 1951 terms as pros pective candidates for Lieutenant Governor. John Larkins of Trenton, along with Roy Rowe of Burgaw, had been urged to run ever since the General Assembly convened. When it. adjourned Saturday night, he had not said yea or nay. Last week a lot of pressure was put on Frank Taylor, Speaker of the House to run for this second spot. lie may do it. Milas McCracken (Fines Creek)' 'Basketball." Bruce Kirkpatrick (Fines Creek)-'Softball." Doris Ann Rathbone Crtek): "Basketball." (Fines Joyce Carter "Band, I guess." (Waynesville); Betty "Band.'' Noland (Waynesville): Louise Leach ( Waynesville): "Right now it's the Senior Play." It is difficult to conceive of both Larkins and Taylor running, but anything can happen in poli tics. If Taylor is a candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Jim Butler, secretary of the Goldsboro Cham ber of Commerce, a radio com mentator and an ordained minis ter, is expected to run for Taylor's seat in the House. Butler is ex ceedingly popular in Wayne County. Rambling Ttoim; Bits Of Human By Frances G He was young, good looking, well groomed, a college graduate, high social standing, an only child and would, eventually, inherit a siz able fortune. He had everything to offer the young lady with whom he was deeply in love, but she per sistently said "No". When pressed for the reason of her refusal to marry him, she told him very frankly; "A good many times I have seen you deliberately park your car across a sidewalk to chat with friends, when there was plen ty of parking space on either side. Somehow, it seems to me, that a man so inconsiderate of others would not be any more considerate of his wife." A million dollars worth of beauty wrapped np in a ten-cent package of flower seeds. Little Johnny was proudly show ing his art teacher his completed work. "That's very good, Johnny," she complimented him, "but what is that circle you have put over the figure's head?'' Johnny was quick to explain. "Well, you see," he said, "if It's a lady I've drawn, that's a moon over her head. But if it's a man, that's a halo." We like to travel and have vis ited Chicago.
