RooseveU Again Invites
Enemies Off Reservation
Asks Disagreeing Dem
ocrats to Subordinate
Prejudices or Quit the
Party.
?
Washington, April 19. ? President
Roosevelt, declaring tonight that the
Democratic party would commit sui
cide if it turned "conservative," called
on Democrats who disagree with pres
ent policies to "subordinate their
prejudices" or get out of the party.
In a message to a Junior Jackson
Day dinner of the Young Democratic
Clubs here, he said:
"There never was, and never will
be, a political party whose policies
absolutely fit the views of all of its
members. Where men are at variance
with the couse their party is taking,?
it seems to me there are only two I
honorable courses?to join a party I
that more accurately mirrors their I
ideas, or to subordinate their preju-1
dices and remain loyal."
Looking ahead to 1940, and calling I
on the party to cleave to the prin-l
ciples that "brought it to power," he
said:
"There is no use fooling ourselves. I
If we are to have a reactionary re- I
gime?or if that term is too horrific,!
call it a conservative regime?you I
may depend on it that it will be the J
other fellow's regime."
In inviting Democrats to leave the
party if they cannot remain "loyal,"!
he said he was not seeking to prevent I
them from trying to change the par
ty's program.
Different Thing.
"It would be a poor sort of politi-j
cian or statesman" he said, "who did j
not fight for his sincere principles,!
but that is a different thing from!
allying themselves with their party's
enemies and getting in a stab where- J
ever and whenever they can do so J
safely."
* ?... Vanno "cfT-oicrVlt I
unless uns 0?
ahead," he said, the country will find
itself travelling in a direction op
posite to <?>??<? in which it wants to go.
"Incidentally, the progress of our
political car is not helped by the
clamor of the back-seat drivers who
point out the apparent smoothness
of the detours of compromise and
subterfuge, and complain of the speed
of our going."
Explaining his prediction that the
party was doomed to defeat if it aban
doned its present course, he said the
multitude of independent voters and
"Republican Liberals" who voted
Democratic in 1932 and 1936 would
"quit us in disgust if we throw them
down now."
Whenever the Democratic party of
fered the country an "ersatz" (imi
tation) Republicanism, he said, the
people "spurned the imitation and
sent our party to stand in a corner
until it had learned its lesson."
James A. Parley, Democratic na
tional chairman, asserted in a speech
prepared for the dinner that Demo
crats should not "delude" themselves
into thinking that another landslide
was inevitable in 1940.
No. Repetition.
"It would be silly and stupid for
me or anyone else to assert that the
smashing triumphs which the Demo
cratic party won over a bankrupt
Republican party in the last two
Presidential elections will be repeat
ed in 1940," he asserted.
"Even the G. O. P. can hardly be
relied upon to exhibit the same brand
of blind indifference to the national
welfare that marked its conduct in
those elections . . ? Jumbo is a trifle
more alert and be has learned that
the 1 tricks which delighted
the audience back in the gay days be
fore the 1929 crash are out of date
and need revising."
Farley asserted, however, that
"pessimism has no place in the Demo^
crstic outlook for 1940, adding that
"I believe sincerely that the next
President of the United States will be
* He deckured the Republican party
"has bowed to the inevitable and is
ready to offer the country a diluted
brand of Roosevelt poBciee as a sub
stitute for the original," but that its
leaden "are just as barren of con
structive Meas as they ever were.

Spanish War
Veterans Meet
Captain James Thomas Smith Camp
No. 17, United Spanish War Vet
erans, held is regular meeting Sun
day, April 16th, in the Americas
Legion Hut in Farmville. At this
' meeting four new members were ad
ded to the roll of the camp.
After the meeting was over a light
luncheon was served. The next reg
ular -meeting will be held in Golds
bo ro, the third Sunday in May at 3
P. M. We hope to have at this meet
ing all the members and the ladies of
the Auxliary. Also, let's have the
data on the Spanish War Veterans
and what they have done. It seems
that whenever the word economy is
mentioned, big business and the
Economy League proceed to harp on
the pension now being paid to old
Spanish War Veteran/ too old to
start out and make a decent living.
The fact is overlooked that the en
dowments by these veterans is just
a part of the cost of war. In 1898,
these veterans were young men in
the prime of life. They did not stand
back but volunteered their services tu
their country. These young men were
the sons of veterans of the 60s. The
sons of the boys in blue fought side
by side with the sons of the boys in
grey. This brought about closer rela
tions between the north and the south.
From this the true Americanism was
born. These veterans fought in the
Philippine Insurection, Boxer Rebel
lion in China, also in Cuba and Porto
Rico. These battles erased to a great
extent the oldest of feuds, Sectional
ism. They had a common cause and
a common country and they showed
the world a sample of the might and
prestige of the U. S. A.
This war was really the cementing
of the North and South. They made
this country a first class power, they
brought untold wealth to our country
in the shape of trade and possessions.
At this time there was an era of pros
perity that was an aftermath of the
Spanish American War. There is
still a large amount on the credit side
of the ledger due us for more than
will ever be paid.
Practically all of the higher officers
in the World War were veterans of
the Spanish American War. They
had learned their lessons in tropical
climates that were inundated with all
the diseases known to mankind. It
has been said that the Grand Army
preserved the nation and the veterans
of 1898 cemented it and the World
War veterans preserved the princi
ples on which this country were
founded.
There were two of the South's vet
erans of the Civil War who took a
conspicuous part in the Spanish
American War. These men were the
pride of the Confederates, Generals
Joe Wheeler and Fitzhugh Lee.
By order of the Post Commander.

Registers Obtain
Marriage Ruling
Reports Required On
Outside Marriage, Free
Examination Develops.
- -\C'
" ? *. '< . . ' - * . ? - - .. "? '* - ' V.
Raleigh, April 20. ? Attorney Gen
eral Harry McMullan yesterday made
public a ruling in which he adviaed
county registers of deeds to "seek and
follow" the literal meaning of the
new marriage-examination law.
The measure, passed by the 1989
General Assembly, requires appli
cants for marriage licensee to present
proof that they are free frogn cer
tain diseases.
McMullan pointed out that the law
requires North Carolinians married
in other states to file health certifi
cates with registers of deeds within
60 days after their return to this
state. He added that registers were
not required to "search out" viola
tors of this section.
"Where any violation of the act in
this respect is called to your atten
tion, however, you should bring the
matter to the aattention of your local
prosecuting attorney," McMullan held.
The rulings were requested by A.
B. Rhodes of Wilmington and J. H.
McAdoo of Greensboro, registers.
If a resident of North Carolina
marries a non-resident, the Attorney
General said, the former must pass a
physical examination.
"The wisdom of the law and its
reasonableness or unreasonableness
are matters for the Legislature," he
wrote. "The terms of the act make
construction difficult and hazardous,
and in such circumstances the best
rourse to pursue would be to seek
and follow the literal meaning of the
words used."
Another development on the mar
riage examination front was an an
nouncement by the Wake County
Flealth office that it would not give
free physical examinations .to appli
cants for marriage licenses.
A r> D..11. ?tr^ar ?iH
ur. A. \J. UCfMWt ?**aw* > ^
the office did not have the facilities!
or time to conduct such examine- j
tions.
The law states that persons unable
to pay for examinations may obtain
health certificates without charge
from the local hehlth officer >r coun
ty physician.
The Wake County Health Board
interpreted this to mean that the
health office was permitted, but not
required, to make such examinations,
Dr. Bulla said. He recommended that
indigent persons obtain free exami
nations at clinics at local hospitals.

HULL DENOUNCES ITALIAN AG
GRESSION; F. D. R. SATS DIC
TATORS MENACE U. S.
??? $
Italy's attack on Albania was
promptly denounced by Secretary of
State Cordell Hull, as a "forcible and
violent invasion and called "an addi
tional threat to the peace, of the
world." He added that "any threat
to peace seriously concerns all na
tions" and that such incidents de
stroy confidence and undermine eco
| nomic stability in every country,
"thus affecting our own welfare."
The President makes no effort to
conceal his disapproval of the tactics
followed by Germany or Italy, or of
his belief that the United States
should allign itself on the side of the
democracies in an effort to prevent
war. He gave his hearty approval
last week to a newspaper editorial,
calling for a "preponderant show of
force" by the democratic nations. In
his message to Congress on the state
of the Union, the Chief Executive
plainly pointed out that, in his opin
ion, the United States could not be
unconcerned when other nations at
tacked the fundamentals upon which
our Government and civilization, de
pend. ..
Recently, through the use of a
"White House spokesman," an au
thentic statement of Administration
policy in the present crisis was given
to the press. This is that "the con
tinued political, economic and social
independence ot every small nation in
the world does have an effect on our
national safety and prosperity. Each
one that disappears weakens our na
tional safety and prosperity."
That the President is gravely con
cerned over what appears to be a
Nazi-Fascist dream of world domina
tion by military force is undisputed.
He stands solidly behind Great Brit
ain and France in the "Stop Hitler"
movement, but, at no time, has there
been any suggestion that this coun
try might throw its military support
to the European democracies.
It is pointed out that one of .the
results of successful military aggres
sion is control of commerce, not only
in the territory of the aggressors but
in other independent nations, under
threat of military power. Thus, if
military domination continues to ex
pand its influence will inevitably be
felt all over the world and the ag
gressor nations will expand their bar
ter system of trade.
This will threaten the economic se
curity of nations which give their
workers better wages and shorter
haurs, and, as applied to the United
States, force a choice between three
courses:
(1) Adoption of a "Chinese Wall"
policy, calling for withdrawal from
foreign trade, with emphasis on eeo
nomc self-sufficiency and a terrific
drop in national income.
(2) The use of export subsidies
as a national policy at a tremendous
cost to taxpayers who would virtually
be taxed in order that foreign na
tions can buy American products
cheaper than Americans themselves.
(8) A general lowering of living
standards, with longer hours of work
and reduced wages, so that American
exports can compete in the- world
market with low wage foreign pro
ducers.
FOREIGN AFFAIRS INTEREST
AMERICA AS CONGRESS SEEK
NEUTRALITY LAW.
.
Tile people of the United States,
for probably the first time in the his
tory of this country, have their great
est interest in the happenings across
the oceans. Certainly, so far as re
cent history is concerned, no such at
tention, has beean paid to the events
in other lands in a year of peace. In
nation's Capitol, where Congress sits
I to legislate, most of the. present dis
cussion involves American foreign
policy, our complicated neutrality
laws and a course of action when wax
begins in Europe.
While there are some who believe
that war will not come in Europe,
the overwhelming weight of opinion
is to the contrasffc to mmy circles,
the outbreak of hostilities is taken
for granted. Of course, a plausible
argument can be connected to demon
strate the improbability of a conflict
at this time, but on the other side

Measure Provides $66,
000,000 for 16 New Air
Bases at Strategic and
Vital Points.
Wassington, April 19. ? Aftef on
ly 16 nlinutes of debate, and without
a dessenting vote, the Senate today
passed and sent' to conference with
the House a national defense bill au
thorizing expenditure of $6ff,000,000
for establishment of 16 strategically
located naval air bases.
President Roosevelt and high Navy
officials advocated the measure as a
vital link in the network of defense
which the government is forging to
protect the United States and its pos
sessions against attack from the sea
or skies.
The .bill does not include $5,000,000
recommended by the Navy as neces
sary to improve harbor defenses at
Guam, tiny island in the Pacific,
1,400 miles from the mainland of Ja
pan. The item will be considered in

The general program, which will
be completed within three years, pro

Johnston Speaks
Passage of the measure highlighted
a day of important national defense
developments which saw General
Hiram Johnson, R., Calif., perennial
and caustic foe of "meddling" in the
affairs of Europe, charge that neu
trality law revisions which would
permit paring nations to buy muni
tions in the United States would
make this country an ally of Great
Britain in the Atlantic and Japan in
the Pacific oceans.
The Californian, an unyielding ad
vocate of isolation, said that the
"cash and carry" plan sponsored by
Chairman Key Pittman, D., Nevada,
of the Senate foreign relations com
mittee, would aid the nations he
named because they have large fleets.
He clashed with Breckinridge Long,
former ambassador to Italy, who tes
tified at the committee's hearings on
the Pittman plan, arguing that Bri
tain and Japan would be able to domi
nate their respective oceans.
Long, like several witnesses be
fore the House foreign affairs com
mittee, insisted that the plan does not
involve discrimination by this coun
try and does not prevent develop
ment of industries which might prove
vital in wartime. He saw a danger
that the present neutrality statute
may cripple, or at least retard, de
velopment of such industries.
Hitler, Mussolini and Japanese
military tacticians rely on retention
of the present "unfair" neutrality act
in plotting their aggressions. Max
well Stewart,. New York, associate
editor of The Nation, told the House
committee. His opinion was in con
trast to that of another witnesis, Al
fred M. Bingham, editor of Common
Sense magazine, who contended that j
neutrality legislation should not be
scuttled", as it is the only thing that
will protect this country's freedom of
J action in wartime.
Against Japan.
Stewart urged stoppage of "our
disgraceful help to Japan," and im
position of economic sanctions against
that nation aa justified and probably
effective steps to smash aggression.
As he spoke, the White House,
which surprised the world by order
ing the fleet to Return to Pacific wa
ters, a move that came almost simul
taneously with the summoning of Col.
Charles A; Lindberg to active Army
service, declined to comment on re
ports that President Roosevelt was
planning to send a special peace note
to Tokyo on the same lines as-his
missive last week to Mussolini end
Hitler.

Getting Ready to De
fend First Roosevelt
Orders Under Reor
ganization Act.
Washington, April 19. ? Instead of
worrying about the gubernatorial
situation, in which he apparently has
only an academic interest, Repre
sentative Lindsay C. Warren is get
ting ready to defend three executive
orders which President Roosevelt is
expected to send to Congress before
May 1 under the recently-enacted
governmental reorganization act.
; .The measure. was piloted through
the House early in the session by
Mr. Warren and President Roosevelt
has been consulting him in advance,
as well as Senator James P. Byrnes,
who had charge of the bill in the
Senate.
Warren and Byrnes had a long
conference with the President early
this week and will call at the White
House again on Sunday, before the
firBt' of the reorganization orders is
sent to Congress. Under the reor
ganization act, the orders must lie
over for 60 dayB while Congress is
in session before becoming effective.
They are being sent to Congress this
month in anticipation of adjournment
by late June.
Reports of the contents of the
forthcoming orders could not be veri
fied today, but one of them is ex
pected to resemble closely the Byrnes
bill now pending in the Senate, which
provides for consolidating all public
works agencies. Another is expected
to consolidate lending agenciqp and
has attracted considerable advance
commotion. A third is understood to
change bureaus within existing de
partments.
Undersecretary of the Treasury
John W. Hanes, a native North Caro
linian, conferred at length with!Mr.
Warren today regarding reorganiza
tion.

ANSWERS TIMELY
FARM QUESTIONS
Question: What can I do to stimu
late egg production in my poultry
flock?
Answer: If the birds are just poor *
layers, there is nothing to do except
to get rid of the hens. However, the
feeding factor, must be considered and
a careful check should be made to see
that a plentiful supply of feed is be
fore the hens at all times. Then, too,
be sure that the feed formula has not
been changed as any change in diet
will cause a falling off in production.
If the birds are going into a molt
this early it would be best to discard -
these hens and get a new flock for
next year.
. ? ' ' v
Question: How often should I mow
a lawn planted last fall?
Answer: Mowing should be started
this spring just as soon as the grass
is tall enough for .the machine to
catch the - ends of the leaves and
should be run over the lawn every
week duripg the growing season. The
clipping; however, should not be too
close nor should the cut grass be re
moved. After the grasses have got
ten well started into growth, an ap
plication of nitrate of soda or sul
phate of ammonia^ should be made at
the rate of 100 pounds to the acre,
this is especially true if the grasses
are not growing well and do not have
a good color. Do not apply this ma
terial when the grass Is wet as this
might scorch the leaves.
Question: What other livestock
would you recommend keeping on a -30
dairy farm ?
Answer: Poultry and swine produc
