Highway Opens To Mod ern Travel Paths Traversed My Pioneer. A lew days ago a big celebration at Boone marked the completion of the “Boone Trail,” and as Governor Gardner said on that occasion, con nected "the lest provinces” with the rest of the world by a ribbon of concrete. In an editorial Wednesday, the New York Times directed national ‘attention Boone-ward, with the following comment: “Byron in ‘Don Juan’ account ed ‘General Boon,’ 'backswoodsman of Kentucky,’ (though mis-spelling his name and conferring upon him a title which he never enjoyed', the ‘happiest among mortals anywhere.’ He poetically made Boone shrink even from the men if his own na tion when they ‘built up to his dar ling trees.’ In prosiac fact he mov ed on westward from the state which now proudly claims him as its patron pioneer not because of the 'inconvenience of civilisation’ but because he lost all his holdings in Kentucky and moved on to the present Missouri, where he succeed ed in making enough money to Kentucky and pay off all his debts, though according to tradition this payment left him with a surplus of only fifty cents. But, as Byron said, he left behind him a name, ‘not only famous but of that good fame without w’hich glory's but a tavern song.’ Now that the state of North Car olina, from which he made his ex cursions into the wilds of what are now Tennessee and Kentucky, has completed its ‘hard-surfaced’ high way from the sea up to the Yadkin valley, where Boone's cabin stood on the frontier, and then on through the mountains following his trail into the sometime wilder ness, his good name will continue to be sung across these three states. It becomes incidentally, as Presi dent Hoover said in his message of congratulation ‘An important link in our great nation-wide system of roads.’ And it has been proclaimed as not only the ‘most magnificent thoroughfare’ across the Blue Ridge but the finest example of engineer ing skill in the construction of mountain highways to be found in eastern America. me ’lost provinces back o! the mountains where the sturdy stock still lingers that in the winter of 1775 its ‘unpolished sentiments of liberty’ to congress are now reclaim ed. Byron woud no doubt be disap pointed that his reo of the soli tude who ‘lived hunting up to ninety’ should be welcoming mil lions over his trail, where the ‘young, unawakened world was ever new.' But it is Boone’s good fame that his trail has brought these great stretches of mountain, valley and forest within reach of those In ‘cities caged.’ It is not so much that the lost provinces have their outlet to the coastland and the sea as that they who live in these low er and crowded levels have access | to the heights where the waters of the Watauga and the forks of the Holston flow toward the Tennes see.” EYES CHANGE It is wise to have your eyes examined at least onw a year.

C.—A personal encounter on Main stret between Leslis Mc Corkle and Dr. M. W. White, we’l known York citizens, took place as the sequel to a spanking adminis tred by Doctor White to the two year old son of Mr. McCorkle, aft er the child had called hinj •'But termilk.” Resenting the name applied to him by the child, Doctor White gave the child a spanking, saying by way of explanation that If the child’s parents would not give- the child proper training, he would at tend to this himself. Later Mr. McCorkle met Doctor White on the street and inquired the reason for the spanking. When Doctor White said it was because of the objectionable name applied to him, Mr. McCorkle attacked Doctor White with his fists, strik ing him several blows and bringing the blood from his face. No arrests have yet been made. Defense Made Of Farm Board Plans ro The Editor. The board has been composed ot our ablest men and they have lone their duty as they saw It. They have not even taken time to answer critics who were mostly dis gruntled profiteers and whose in terests were directly opposite to that of the people. If you do not know what the board has doner you should post yourself the Information is free—don’t talk until you know In 1929 they did their best to save the wheat and cotton farmers and if world conditions had remained normal they would have succeeded, even in spite of what we farmers did. What is the use to save a man if he will not stay saved? The tariff law helped ruin us. but I am not dls cussing that now. Salvation has al ways been free since the world be gan, yet only a few have ever had sense enough to accept it until they see the bottom of the pit; and some have to dangle there quite awhile before they are ready to do the right thing to receive relief. Three years ago the sugar growers reached the place where the cotton and wheat growers are now, com pletely busted, with a two years surplus of sugar on hand. Thanks - to a few men with brains and ex-1 ecutlve ability their troubles have all been composed, and you. Mister Sugar Eater, (so are we all), will pay exactly what the sugar growers J of the world say you will pay for every grain of sugar you put tn your tea from now on. They were ruined and had to do something They did It. We cotton growers are In the same fix. We can do it now if we have sense enough, or wait three years like they did and then do It. I say do it now. Will say here that the United States Is not concerned In the su gar arrangement, as we do not ex port, we only consume, and pay the price fixed by others. Senator E. D. Smith's plan for the Immediate help of the cotton farm er seems to be legal and all right; It will get Immediate relief for us. Sixty day* will be too late; credi tors don't always wait. Now the farm board has *500.000.000 to take care of us. Let us do the sensible thing and get them to do it now. I wish to say that the farm board saved me $1,500 in the sale of my 1929 cotton crop. Or *30 per bale Multiply by 15,000,000 and you have *450,000,000 saved to the Southern farmers in that one season, and yet profiteering propaganda has blinded your eyes to that fact. I am a farm er and a Democrat and the man BUSINESS forms, social forms, advertising matter . . . as we create them are plan ned in just the right taste and tempo to meet the situ ation.

JAMES A. WILSON. Silver Declares He Was Not Drunk When Attending Sessions N. C« Automobile Official Says Re* port False About Condition In Tennessee. Atlanta.—Major Sprague Silver of North Carolina said here that he had been done a great Injustice by reports from Chattanooga, Toni’ which reflected on hla conduct at r meeting in that city Thursday night of officials of southern states. "Any story to that effect is un true," he said. ‘Till* report has done me a very grave Injustice. The report is so untrue that I do not teel that it is up to me to make any statement regarding it. "I think it is sufficient to say that nine other officials at the conference today sent telegrams to a newspaper in my- home state that reports reflecting on my conduct at the meeting were utterly false and without foundation.” Major Silver was a representative of North Carolina at a meeting in Chattanooga of officials of a num* ber of southern states, seeking a truce in an automobile truck li cense war in which several neigh boring states have engaged recent ly.
