SHARING TO SHAKE WITH OTHERS? how many times have wa dreamed of the Massed pririlege of contributing such sums as would really count in strengthening the agendas which are laboring for the happiness and wel fare of the_ most people. What a dream! What an impulse! Worthy and commendable. Would we seek its fulfilment now or wait until our eyes are dimmed and our ears are stopped to mortal needs and cries? The answer is now. - - - - ? ? ? 11 L !? Now, indeed, lor urnce oien ? the benefactor who yields immediate ly to the generous impulse?to share; first, in the giving of course, second, in the privilege of seeing happiness unfold itself to others through the fruitage of one's generosity, and the third blessing?an inevitable out growth from personal sacrifice. A generous spirit, demonstrated so forcibly, during the past week by one of Farmville's foremost citizens is not a new thing to this community. Since he came here a young man of modest means some years ago he has never shown a miserly implse. The members of bis church will tell you that even then he often contributed his largest bill from a rather thin purse when special causes were pre sented. Heading the list of relief movements and civic undertakings here he has never turned a deaf ear to a meritorious effort for the bet terment of the community. This does not mean that he gives promiscuously or would not resent sn imposition of any sort. We hope these words will not be construed as sn eulogy or a special tribute of praise, we know this kind ly, genial person would be em harass ed by either, it is simply an expres sion on our part of grateful acknow ledgement for having in our midst in these days when Greed and Self ishness are rampant in the land, a spirit, alert to the need, and one which exemplifies the noble grace of sharing. THE BRITISH LAY THEIR KEELS During 1937 the British govern ment had under construction 5 bat tleships, 21 cruisers, 5 aircraft car riers, 49 destroyers, 19 submarines, 3 depot ships, 24 escort, minesweep ing and patrol vessels, 3 gunboats, 17 motor torpedo boats and 2 surveying' ships?a total of 148 vessels. There is talk of a program to be announced in a few months that will include three to five battleships, seven cruisers and a generous quota of destroyers, submarines and other light tonnage. What are the British up to? It's easy; they plan a "two-hemisphere" navy, able to protect their interests in Europe and the Far East at the same time. That's what they built the base at Singapore for and there is no reason to believe that the British are going to try to make peace with the belligerent nations by crawling into a hole and hiding their TYPICALLY AMERICAN Nineteen Governors, eighty United States Senators and two hundred RsiasaanlatNes recently signed a eminent upon its new constitution. Aside from the fact that most American riHsans axe hopeful that the British and tha Irish will be able to settle their differences in friendly fashion we fafl te see just exactly what business thaaa officials have in Fames da Valors. The diaorican people are very quicAte insist that tha British mind their own luihniii hut, as this inci dent rimes quite willing to take a hand In other people's attain Wo do not criticise anybody for wishing thn Irish republic the heat of fin In hut official! in this coun try should leave such affairs in the hfltt .it and you wiD always have ?''is'; Yearly tin aamflt aI food for aa^fflttaro vaaBaa BWW Ikt BMffil uMJT CM It ^ 'ti j ; ? - * F| - ? ? 9 - -* r Booacydf* Mcsmggl said, "ju'woppom 4m cooperation of what wo call capital and labor."! Declaring that "the orerwhohnlhaf j majority of businessmen and bankers I iatod to bo good citisens," and that "only a small minority" have engag-f ed in practices which art dishonest ] or definitely harmful," Mr. Booee-j volt asserted that "if attention is called to or attack made on certain! wrongful business practices" the! "condemned minority" distorts the! criticism into an attack on all hpM naif. This, ha tar mad, a "wilful de ception that will not long deceive." The President listed certain prac-j fckes "which moat people beKtvej should be ended," including; 1st, tax! avoidance through corporate ^nd j other methods; 2nd, excessive capi-f talization, investment write-ups had! security manipulation; 3rd, price-1 rigging, the collusive bidding in d*-| fiance of the spirit of the anti-trust laws; 4th, high-pressure salesman-1 ship, creating cycles of over-prodpc tion and consequent recessions in production in given industries; 5th, I use of patent laws to enable larger! corporations to maintain high prices J and withhold the advantages of sden-1 tific progress; 6th, unfair competi tion which drives smaller producers! out of business; 7th, intimidation of local or state governments to fore stall laws to protect labor by threat ening to move elsewhere; 3th, the shifting of production in pursuit of j the cheapest wage scale; 9th, abuses arising out of concentrated economic control of other people's money, labor and lives. :....I The President insisted that the "ownership of vast properties or the organisation of thousands of workers creates a heavy obligation of public service" and those who seek "free dom from such responsibility in the name of individual liberty" are fool ing themselves or trying to cheat their fellowmer." He insisted that "the nation has no obligation to make; America safe for incompetent busi nessmen or for businessmen who fail to note the trend of business and continue to use the machinery pf economics and practices of finance as outworn as the cotton spindle of 1870." He pledged the cooperation of Government provided "the com ponent parts of busuiness abandon practices which do not belong to this day and age and adopt prices and production policies appropriate to the times." While definite progress in collec tive bargaining has been made and the right of labor to organise has been recognised, "dificult situations have arisen" and "unfortunate divi sions among the workers" have re tarded production and the construc tion of homes and buildings baa been hindered "not only by unnecessarily high prices for materials but also by certain hourly wage scales." For economic and social reasons, the President throught it desirable, 1st,' to increase the wages of the lowest paid groups in all industry, and 2nd, to begin thinking more in terms of the workers ' total pay for a year rather than by the hour or by the day. Mr. Roosevelt warned that "no Gov ernment can help the destinies of people who insist on potting section al and class-conseiousnees ahead of general weal" and declared "there must be proof that sectional and class-interest are prepared more greatly than they are today to be national in outlook.'* While some matters have been im proved by remedial legislation, there are some particulars where the legis lation has failed and "we cannot bp sure whether it fails because some of its details are unwise or because it is being sabotaged." Neverthe less, "if private cooperative endeavor fails to provide work for willing hands and relief for the unfortunate, those suffering hardships from no fault of their own have a right to call upon the Government for aid; and a Government worthy of its name must make fitting response." The President asserted that those "who have faith in democratic meth ods as applied in induustry, in agri culture and in business, as well as in fiie field of policies," must do their utmost to cooperate with Govern ment, in whatever program may be sanctioned by the chosen representa tives of the people.
