ON At EDITOIIAl, mr:.r,..ia Filling The Coal Bin Now Secretary of the Interior Chapman is call ing on the American people to do something which common sense should dictate they do anyway. He is urging homeowners to buy their next winter's fuel as early as possible this summer. . , . .Secretary Chapman is not trying to scare anybody with a general shortage. But he does point out that next winter transportation facilities may be taxed by heavy defense traffic. Certainly we would not want to be hauling coal to the homefolks in cars which need to be used for building Up our armaments. Es pecially so when the homefolks can, by a lit tle timely forethought, get their needs out of the way earlier. . ' Then too, there is such a satisfied feeling in knowing that a full coal bin or a full oil tank awaits the worst that , winter can do. These give a feeling of security in. a time yhen so many things are insecure. Secretary Chapman bases his appeal on a patriotic motive. That is reason enough,but if we need any other-prompting folk might turn to their own good judgment. Shelby Star. Thursday Afternoon. June 7, 1931 Time To Clinch The Matter A campaign is being waged in Haywood to get 100 per cent of the burley allotment of over 1,500 acres planted this year. This is only good business a sound and practical one. Last year, for various reasons, Haywood burley farmers let 375.5 acres of burley allot ment go ,unplanted. According to the average, this cut the farm income of this county down by over $375,000. That third of a million dollars would mean more to theeconomy of the farmers than most people might realize. Had some program, or disease hit this coun ty that would have cut farm income by a third of a million, we would have heard a howl that would still be echoing between the hills. But when we deliberately fail to follow through and take advantage of a third of a million in income, we seem to take it with grace, and calmness, which is almost disturb ing. The First National Bank is sponsoring the campaign by giving $25 to the community planting the largest portion of the burley acreage allttmcftP .. .... This is an important program, and while we are looking for high prices for farm pro ducts, new sources of income, new industries, and the like, we have a third-of-a-million dol lar income proposition in the palm of our hands if we will only tighten our fingers around it. Three Weeks Of Detouring From now until about the first of July, all traffic to Asheville will have td make the Newfound detour, as paving operations on the 3.3 mile section of Highway 19-23 east of Canton will require about three weeks. The use of the narrow, crooked Newfound road means that trips to Asheville will re quire a longer period of time, as good time cannot be made on the detour, which is long er. Motorists would do well to keep this in mind for the next few weeks, and drive with extreme caution on the detour. There are broken places in the pavement, and several ' extremely sharp curves. The detour road was not built for the amount of traffic carried by Highway No. 19-23; neither was it built for speed. Both of these facts should be born in the mind of those who have to use the road for the next three weeks. FT7 They'll Do It Every Time i.s- By Jimmy Hatlo JUaOSJLENE VAT3 :ON2 Or THOSE.

More Competition For the past few years, the beaches of Florida have been catering more and more to summer visitors. This summer, more than 80 per cent of the hotels at Miami Beach will remain open that will mean 371 hotels with 26,000 rooms seeking the summer vacationist's dollar. . Mountain resorts can well take notice of such competition, to say nothing of the beach es in this and neighboring states. Jt all means one thing more promotion for the mountains is essential.' - And effective promotion is ex pensive, but pays handsome dividends. Stern Talk From OPS ' Officials of OPS are sending out some rath er stern news releases regarding the necessity of firms filing their base or highest prices charged for goods or services between Decem ber 19, 1950 and January 25, 1951. This ap plies to service stations, pool rooms, and even parking lots, according to the latest release from the Charlotte office. The authorities apparently are aware of the fact that public sentiment regarding the OPS has up to this time been looked upon with a certain degree of disgust as well as a similar lack of confidence in its plarv and achievement. This is due to the confusion created by the leaders in Washington in their failure to pre sent to the people a clear-cut and easily un derstood over-all problem. The average citizen, by nature, is a cooper ative soul, but first of all, he must' be assur ed that what he is being told to do is for the first interest of all concerned, and that those doing the talking ;are awara. jf -what they seek. Does OPS measure up to this? MIRROR OF YOUR MIND By LAWRENCE GOULD Consulting Pgychplogiitt- '' tioa is a bore, and nothing could more boring than the senseless repetition ol obscene words. As Mr. Herman Wouk, the author ol the best novel ot World War II I have yet read "The Calne Mu tiny" says, such words are "good-humored billingsgate . . . and not significant." He gets along very well without them. CAN BE HAD Nicaraguan Am bassador Capus Wayn'ck. who was t,n the homewoods about a year4ago as:a part of thr Frtfuk" Graham scene, will be back again in July ste column in April for. first re port of this visit to sec the lay of the land on whether he can successfully run as a candidate for Governor next year. He has already reached the letter-writing stage, admits the idea of running "intrigues" him. The word "intrigues", which is rather typical of the polished, cultured and altogether erudite Mr. Way nick, means in cow pasture lan guage that the mere thought ap peals to him, arouses his interest, his curiosity, and all in all is something he would enjoy looking into further. Verily, it does begin to look as if he is THE administration man . . , with Bill Umstead providing the opposition. They say Waynick has made' a fine record as ambas sador to Nicaragua and will soon become ambassador to Bolivia, the trouble-swept, tin-important South American nation, but that never theless he would like to come back home and settle down as Governor of North Carolina. However, Waynick is a realist He has been kicking around in pol- Itics for a long time and knows it takes money. If he can be as sured of a beginning of $50,000 he will probably make the race. Re ports that a little conference on Waynick's chances was held at the Mansion here a few davs ai?o mav be heard on the streets of Raleigh. NODoay has made an effort to get the particulars, but the rumors make sense. Capus Waynick, it is felt, can be had if the money is there, with more forthcoming. was no trouble at all. Voice of the People What is your favorite drive with in a 50-mile radius of Waynesville? Rambling 'Round Bits Of Human Interest N'ews- . By Frances Gilbert Frazier We have often wondered what our grandparents wouia say anil think of the present innovations. inventions and inconsistencies that exist today.- Reared as they were to live by the strict tenets of the re ligion of their belief, the laxness of today's tendencies would be not cn'y amazing but most distasteful. It seems that, at times, progress goes into a tailspin andfalls to earth with disastrous results. But, most fortunately, there is far more good in the world than evil . . ,, although evil seems to get more front-page space. . . "What we don't know, can't hurt us," they say, Maybe but it sure can keep us worried. Little Mary .'was ' born and rear ed in Florida and in all her six years of life had never before seen mountains. She couldn't quite, get it firmly fixed in her mind how this stupendous thing cold have hap pened, and she tried to figure it out. But, at last , she went to her mother for an explanation.

They heard Walker right on up in the stands and went out at the half muttering about it. The victim, Ed Sissell, apparently didn't pay as much attention to the swear words and the growling as did the grandstaadcrs, probably be ing used to it. Word leaked down from Yale a few days ago that Walker was giving the players in spring prac tice the verbal heave-ho. A facul ty official told him that didn't go at Yale. But it will if Yale wins. A winning coach can seldom do anything wrong. A losing mentor never does anything right. Wake Forest alumni didn't curse Walk er for his cursing winning teams nearly so much as when he lam basted those that were losing. Mrs. Leon Killian, Jr.: J'To Soco Gap to see the animals.

The idea that a trtentttf oi malignant power controls your destiny regardless of What you do or leave undone seems to roe an obvious if uncon scious effort to evade the fact that you must take the consequences of your ictlons, and to shift the responsibility onto the shoulders of a "parent figure." If you be IIev that you are fdestined to fall," you may usually find that the source of your "Fate" lies in yourself and can be removed if you understand and reject it Even the fact that you were un lucky in your parents does not ihean (hat their influence cannot b largely counteracted. . Must novelists use "four-letter words?" Answer: I do not believe so. It is true that accurate reporting of the speech of men in military service would involve the use of such words in practically every sentence, but as an old teacher Of mine used to say, the only type of character who should not be pic tured accurately in a work of flc 07rtrH 1M1, Vms rwtuw Sra4k iaa.lt Do "odd" children become Insane adults? Answer; Not always, by any means, writes Dr. Jacob Lutz in the German magazine, Health and Welfare. Not all forms of mental illness show preliminary symptoms in childhood, nor do childish eccentricities always foreshadow adult psychosis or neurosis. Defective intelligence is the only mental abnormality which invariably manifests itself in childhood. Adult schizo phrenics often were "strange children," but all children who act strangely do not become schizophrenics. A child who ap pears abnormal should be studied and understood, not despaired of. He may even prove to be genius. run next GOOD CHANCE A lot of John Larkins friends didn't want him to run for State Commander of the American Legion in the first place, feeling that the oppositon engen dered by the battle might inter. icre with his making a good for Lieutenant Governor spring. - Last week those friends" got help from an unexDected source when John had the constitution thrown at him. The American Legion's na tional constitution article which litem., n r..ll 1 I , - w.icw a luu-uouy iock on parkins was written during the heat of the nooseveit - Hoover campaign in It says that an officer of the A t . . ' . . . . nuiciiiaii region cannot hold a. puuucai on ice, Theodore Roose velt, Jr., was one of those respon sible for this particular item in the constitution. Larkins said he would not re sign as State Senator. Consequent ly, he had to drop out of the run ning. There was some opposition to Larkins among many of the Le gionnaires because he served only a few days in the service. The gun was loaded and cocked when Lar kins got to Asheville for the an nual meeting. Pulling the trigger SCOTT APPOINTS MINISTERS A group of church pastors re cently pointed to the fact that Gov. W. Kerr Scott has appointed sev eral minfsters to the various State commissions and boards. His pa role commissioner, for example, is an outstanding Baptist minister: Dr. Talmadge C. Johnson. He re cently appointed Rev. Kenneth R. Williams, a Winston-Salem Negro, to the State Advisory Board of Mrs. Thomas Campbell, Jr.: "Through Soco Gap to Fontana, fishing." Controls. The Governor has named Rev. Warren T. ( Carr, pastor of Watts Street Church in Durham, as a member of the State Merit Council.
