' Special to The star.>
Winston-Salem, Feb. 22.—Colonel
James M. Little, of this city, has
been reappointed District chief for
the 1932 Citizens’ Military Training
camps and is now selecting county
chairmen who will assist him.
Albert L. Cox, of Raleigh, has
been designated civilian aide for

county.
' The camps this year open June
14 1932, but Colonel Little expects
’he quota for the respective coun
ties to be filled before the first of
Mfcjch. And, in this connection, he
has issued a warning that only
about half the number applying for
camp last year were accepted be
„ cause of the limited government ap
propriations.
In this corps area, including sev
eral southern states, only 4,584 of
the 12,500 applying could be acceptt
ed and the rule of "first come, first
served” was strictly adherred to.
C. M. T. Camps are noiv 13 years
old, he reminded and the general
purpose remains the same. It is: "To
train good healthy Americans to
carry on the nation’s work and per
petuate its . Institutions: develop
•oung men who will hold their
heads high and take honored places
in the community, and who will
* pread the doctrine of healthy, j
democratic Americanism by their I
daily lives.”
Any boy who will be 17 years old
by the opening date, June 14, is eli
gible to go to camp, the procure
ment officer explains. He must be
physically fit, of good character and
an American citizen. A physical ex
amination, vaccination against small
j>ox and typhoid fever, and a certi
:icate of good moral character are
required.
Application blanks may be obtain
' <-d from Colonel Little in Winston
Salem by mail, or upon applica
tion to. Dr. A. Pitt Beam, county
chairman. Last year 23 were accept
J cd from Cleveland county. and
many were turned down because
their applications were received too
late or after the quota had been
* filled. j
A total or over 7o,ooo applications
were received from youths desiring
to take advantage of the govern
ment’s offer of a month’s camp,
with all expenses paid, but only 38.
000 could be accepted. Colonel Lit
tle states.
Those who went to ramps were
given three wholesome meals a day,
comfortable bedding and quarters in '
a concrete-floored tent, laundry,
medical care, uniforms and travel

Wets And Drys United In Boosting
Gamer Of Texas For Presidency
Thinks He Would Sweep Country
Because Liquor is Not a Major
Issue.
Washington, Feb. 22.—The en
dorsement of both "wets and drys”
was claimed in the house last week
for Speaker Garner, a Democratic
Presidential policy possibility.
During a discussion of law suits
involving Biihop James Cannon Jr.,
Representative Blanton, an ardent
prohibitionist, predicted Garner
would sweep the country because
"the people believe there is some
thing here beside the liquor ques
tion.”
The Texas Democrat spoke in re
ply to remarks made Thursday by
Representative Tinkham (R.Mass.t!
challenging BishoD Cannon to an
open court trial of the $500,000 libel
suit the churchman has filed
against him
Garner was brouht intc the dis
cussion by Representative Schafer
(R. Wis.l an anti-prohibitionist. He
said that though Oarnei voted
nsninst the 18th, amendment and
the Volstead act, he voted for "the
notorious five-and-ten” law.
“We can realize why the father of
the 18th amendment. Senator Shep
pard and the step-father, William
G. McAdoo, came out for him,” •
Schafer said.
“My friend will find that the man j
I nominated will' get every vote in i
the gentleman’s district except one
because every progressive he repre
sents is going to vote for him,” t
Blanton replied.
Schafer retorted that Garner "who
has been condemning the delay in
the reorganization of the executive
departments also voted for $24,000,
000 to be given the executive, with
out restriction, for the purpose of
dry law enforcement”
“I want to call the attention ot
the cpuntry to this,” Blanton said,
"that William Randolph Hearst. a
notorious wet, endorses the man I1
nominated and this morning one of
the great drys in the United States :
William G. McAdoo, endorsed him.
So you see he has the endorsement
of the wets and the rfrya. it is an !

Bell In Race
Chester O. Bell (above), of Ra
leigh. has just announced as a can
didate for state auditor subject to
the Democratic primary In June
Mr. Bell is at present auditor of the
state prison and Is well known
throughout the entire state. He Is
a native of Moore county and was
educated at Wake Forest. It Is con
sidered certain that Baxtrr Dur
ham. present auditor, will again be
a candidate.
Cline Boosted
For State Job
Chairman Of Cleveland Commis
'""■m oners Spoken Of As Candidate
For Auditor.
/ It was learned here over the week
end that A. E. Cline, for several
years chairman of the Cleveland
county board of commissioners and
court auditor, is being boosted by
friends over the State as a candi
date for State Auditor.
Mr. Cline received considerable
State notice several years ago when
Chas, M. Johnson, of the State Ad
visory Commission, declared that
county governmental system as
worked out In Cleveland by Mr.
Cline and associates was the best in
the State. The business manage
ment plan was prased for getting
results In lowered taxes. Later the
Cleveland man was appointed to
Advisory Commission so that his ex
perience here could aid other coun
ties. Still later he was elected presi
dent of that Association of North
Carolina County Commissioners and
in his address to the convention
last year pointed out that a county
cannot cut taxes without cutting
expenses by saying ‘‘no’’ to many
requests. His economy pi*»a won him
new advocates.
What effect the boom for State
Auditor will have upon the Cleve
land commissioner Is not known.
Likewise, It is not known whether
he plans to offer for relectlos to
county office, for he seldom talks
politics, being inclined to separate
politics from the duties of public
office, that being one asset friends
over the State advance in boosting
him for higher office.

Dan Cupid Finds Leap Year
A “Washout” For His Business
The merchant who has experienc
ed dull business days on Saturdays
knows exactly how Dan Cupid, the
match-maker, feels as he trims his
bow and arrows In the Shelby sec
tion and Just waits. Leap Year, ord
inarily the boom year In Cupid's
business, has so far been of the
“wash-out” variety to the match
maker.
The first month of the year seem
ed to get off with a flying start, or
what has come to be a flying start
since Cleveland couples began
marrying in South Carolina instead
of in their home county. Eight cou
ples secured marriage license in
Shelby during January. The girls
may have done some proposing, or
the boys may have beat them to
their Leap-Year privilege. Anyway,
eight couples secured licenses and
were married.
The outlook was pretty bright for
young Dan Cupid. Eight times 12,
he may have ruminated to himself,
totals 96. In the spring, when a
man’s fancy turns that way and
meets a girl’s fancy going the same
way, marriages naturally pick up.
Figuring it on that basis there will
be over 100 marriages In Cleveland
this year—somewhat like it was in
the old days.
But after January the leap Year
novelty began to wear off. There's
only week of February left and only
three couples have secured license
in the county so far during the
month.
