After the sound and fairy of
the Scott purge is forgotten —
and it may be forgotten before
the registration'boohs are open
ed—there is also to consider an
other state-wide proposition that
most assuredly will NOT be for
gotten—Liquor. Hie successes
of the past months that “dry”
forces have enjoyed in their zeal
to make this state an oasis of
pink, tea and red lemonade will
spur them ever onward toward
total prohibition.
In the past many county rep
resentatives and district senators
have been sent to Raleigh with
out opposition, as was the case
last year with Lenoir’s Marion
Parrott, but with so much em
phasis being placed on “pro
gressive” and “dry” Assemblies
there is every possibility that
there may develop opposition in
every county and district.
Parrott, a boy from the wrong
side of the tracks so far as Scott
is concerned, would not be a
logical choice of the administra
tion and his repeated votes on
the side of legal liquor—in spite
of being a personal dry—would
make him unacceptable to the
WCTU, the Methodists and ser
ery part at the State.
From this district both Sena
tors "Libby” Ward of New Bern
and John D. Larkins, Jr., of
Trenton were anything but Scott
pawns in the 1949 Assembly and
so they would not have the Haw
River Valley blessings. Yet if
the majorities' they rolled up in
the 1948 elections can be taken
as any measure of their popu
larity at the polls there is small
chance that any potential Scott
candidates will beat them.

Add the Scott threatened

you have something that totals
