Ehringhaus Says Farmer, Working man Must Have A Fair Deal Before Prosperity Will Return To Country Winston-Salem, Mav IV. -Speak ing before a large audience here last right in a speech that was broadcast, J. C. B. Ehringhav.s said in part: “Every state and every nation on the Rlcbe is today struggling with identical social and economic prob lems that agitate the public mind in North Carolina. Governments ev erywhere are groping in darkness, seeking in vain to tind a ray of light that will lead to a brighter day. I have the profound conviction that there is a way out. First, gov ernments, businesses and individ uals must adopt a program of rig id economy. Second, the unneces sary and superfluous will have to go but this alone will not suffice to save. It is possible to cut to a point where the patient bleeds to death. “It is preposterous to think that the people of this nation can go forward without a quick revival in agriculture and Industry—the fun damental of national prosperity and the basis of all enterprise. As evi dence of this realization, all the candidates for governor and the best political thought In this state are committed to the removal of the 15c tax levy on property for the support df the public school. This tax relief is but a Just admission of I the dire distress of real estate and yet when we analyze this relief we find that it only amount^ to a sav ing of a dollar and a half in taxes on every thousand dollars worth of property listed for taxes. That is not enough. We must do more. Cut Government Cost. “We must reduce taxes in every possible way. We must cut the cost of government to actual necessities. We must discontinue every non essential public service, and yet I tell you after all this has been done we have but scratched the surface of our economic ills. If we were to levy no taxes at all, dis continue all public service, close ou*r schools and colleges, and revert to the primitive state, the people of this country would inevitably fall Into bankruptcy if agriculture and industry continue in its present state of prostration and ruin. In other words, we are never going to move out of the present economic depths as long as eight million Americans walk the streets in idle ness, as long as factories can find no markets, as long as the farmers of this county are compelled to sell their tobacco at prevailing prices, their cotton below the cost of pro duction, their corn at 25c a bushel, their wheat at 30c a bushel, peanuts at 1 l-2c a pound, and their truck and live stock at prices that fail to supply the bare necessities of life. The Way to Cut. "To my mind there is only one way out, and that la for this nation to elect a Democratic president and a Democratic congress on a liberal tariff platform that will cut the barbed wire entanglements now denying the American farmer and American workman Ills just parti cipation in the markets of the world. Every nation has erected barriers against the products of the United States as a retaliation against its selfishness and misguid ed monopoly. The Industries of this country are moving to other nations to escape the iniquity of privilege and tariff taxation. "Give this nation a liberal lead ership, with a democratic concept of foreign and domestic trade, and in my Judgment the light of pros perity will come again and North Carolina and this nation will move from the darkness of privilege and monopoly Into the dawn of the light that brightened this world under the glow of the leadership of Wood row Wilson. "I feel one great handicap in this campaign. I do not know how to fight a Democrat. I am proud of the Democratic party in North Car olina and its long and sustained service to the people of this state, I would suffer defeat before I would its record of achievement, or mis represent the motives of its trusted leaders. Fresh From People. "I come fresh from the people and I know full well of the hardships they are now enduring. I have no Illusions about the power and influ* ence of the governor’s office; nor with respect to the difficulties which face the next governor of North Carolina. I would not have the peo ple of North Carolina think that X am a miracle man, but it would be the proudest achievement of my life to have them know what is real ly in my heart—a sincere and hon est conviction that I can serve them openly, freely, unselfishly and help fully. Here in North Carolina there may be those who are being deceiv ed and mislead by a mirage of de spair and ruin. I do not minimize our present plight, but all of the faith that’s in me rises up in rebel lion against the suggestion that North Carolina is bankrupt and all of its people impotent to fight off the calamity of the moment. Our great Christian civilization will not pass out of existence ns long as we maintain the faith of our fathers, the courage of our race, and the hope of our religion. Campaigning On Public Time For Office Is Talked Files Show Maxwell Doins What He Refused To Permit Silver To Do. (Star News Bureau.) Raleigh, May 20.—The principle of an incumbent running for office to succeed himself and devoting some time to his campaign is, of course well established in North Carolina. Also, since the late Chief Justice Walter Clark ran for the United States Senate some 20 years ago, the practice that a man holding of fice may a^jire to another and make his campaign without resign ing, has been followed. But, before this campaign is over the question will be asked, publicly, to what extent a candidate for one office, while holding another State position, may utilize his office force in carrying on his campaign—to what extent he may make use of office force and facilities of the State for making a race for office, which office, while public and pos sibly pro bono publico, also carries with it personal ambition. Allen J. Maxwell, commissioner of revenue and candidate for gover nor, will probably be the most di rect object of such questions. He has established ?. headquarters and much of his political matter is is sued from it. He is chairman of the tax commission, oi which Dr. Fred W. Morrison is executive secretary, and has, of course figures compiled by the commission available. To what extent he is thus aided will probably cqme to the front before June 4. Moreover, newspaper files reveal the attitude of Mr. Maxwell to ward members of his staff taking part in political campaigns in his statement requiring the late Major Sprague Silver, director of the Mo tor Vehicle Bureau, to give up the Fourth district campaign manage ment for Senator Simmons in 1930. After expressing his admiration and friendship for Senator Simmons, to show it was not personal, Mr. Max well added: "my sole purpose is to maintain the orderly operation of this department h. the perform ance of its public duties.” Then Mr. Maxwell said: “It Is the business of this department to man age the State1' business with re spect to collection of its revenue, and no engagements will be per mitted that tend to neglect or em barrass that business. It is expect ed and desired that all employees of the department shall exercise their own best Judgment in support of candidates in contests between Democrats, but such activities as responsibilities of campaign man agement will inevitably impair ef ficiency and tend to convert divis ion offices, supported by all the tax payers for public business, into campaign headquarters, and the ac ceptance of such responsibilities cannot be approved, except under leave cf absence for the period of the campaign. Congress Wants View Of Pres. Hoover On Prohibition Question Washington, May 19,—The pro hibition question was thrust at the White House today with the nitro duction of a resolution in the house calling upon President Hoover to in form congress as to his views and recommendations on the subject The measure was introduced by Representative Romjue <D), Mo., and came close behind a statement by Representative Britten (R), 111., anti-prohibitionists, that the Re publican platform drafted at Chi cago would include a wet plank. “I want to know how the Presi dent stands on this troublesome problem of prohibition,” Romjue said. "It has been working unsatis factorily for both sides, and con gress is entitled to know Mr. Hoov er’s views and recommendations on how to handle it.” Tar Heel Captured By Bandits In China Charlotte, May 19.—W. W. Moore of Charlotte, who is reported cap tured by communist hands In China went to China in 1929 as a mission ary from the Southern Presbyterian church. He is the son of Mrs. I. M. Moore of Charlotte, and formerly was pas tor of the Beth «nd i Cornelius Presbyterian churches in Mecklen burg county. We can’t help but agree with that New York professor who said that higher mathematics is a waste of time. With business like it is, it’s almost useless to teach figures high er than $-50 Watching Washington Washington.— Angty utterances, perhaps Induced tnair.Iy by election worries, and frayed nerves, are frequent in congress during these days of strife and strain. But members sometimes fin i themselves hampere 1 to the point of exasperation, formal rules are Invoked to prevent tl»em from calv ing each other hasty names and, despite their immunity from the legal consequences of anything tney say on the floor, the dictates of ex pediency are even fencing them to moderate the language they use to ward ordinary citizens Unhappy Huey Witness the unhappy plight of Senator Huey Long, the Louisiana "klngfish,'' who wa3 told that he couldn't say Senator Joe Robinson of Arkansas, his own party’s floor leader, was Influenced in his votes by his corporation law clients. They pulled Paragraph Two of Rule XXX on Huey, reading as fol lows: “No senator lr. debate shall, directly or indirectly by any form of words impute to another sena tor or to other senators any conduc’. or motive unworthy or unbecoming a senator.” That's a funny rule in more ways than one, but Huey >iad to sit down until someone It was John Blaine of Wisconsin—made a special mo tion allowing him to resume. A "llarsh" Word Meanwhile, Congressman Florellu H. LaOuardia, the N< w York Insur gent, was being asked to expunge from a committee tecord the word "contemptible" which he had ap plied to President E. L Cord of Ihe Century Air Lines in connection with a pilots' strike following pay cuts. Chairman Sam Rayburn of the House Interstate Commerce com mittee begged Laduaidla to strike out the “harsh word ' because, he said, when another gent had b<vn similarly criticised pevtously "the committee had to hear him for tve days." That seems be the citl wn'i flat method of retaliation at attacks from congress. But what really aeates compli cated commission is a razsberry tossed by a representative at a sen ator, or vice versa. One calls atten tion to the recent cxchahge <>f punts between the peppery little Senator Carter Clasc of Virginia and the ex-prlzeflgbllng congress man, Fred Britten of Illinois. The Glass Charge The house sputtered In anger when Glass charged that some Chi cago bankers had abed one of its members to oppose branch banking provisions of the McFadden bill some years ago. But It spent half an hour argulo» whether Britten could be permitted to quote the Glass charges front the Congressional Record or even make anv specific reference to them. Browning of Tenni.-j.ee, who was In the chair, cited a ruling that no member of the hou.;e might In any way reflection anything a senator or the senate said or did. He ruled that this prevented a member read ing from anything that went m o the Record from the senate, that If a senator called a member of the house a thief the speech musn't or referred to In the house, that If a senator accused every house mem ber of taking bribes the represen tative could not call the slander to the country's attention from the floor. “Saw It In the Tapers" The theory of such rulings, as promulgated by the late Speaker Longworth, Is that friendly relations between the two branches and the'r members must be ‘enforced with the utmost rigidity." So Britten denounced the Glasf charges simply as something h« had read in the newspapers. Shafrr of Wisconsin asked 11m If he wore "criticising newspapermen for cor rectly reporting a statement made on the floor of a supposedly great legislative body by a politician who holds public office,' whereupon the house applauded and Britten apolo gised to—or, rather, eulogised—tha newspapers. Obviously, such circumlocutions hamper a man who wants to say what he thinks. But Britten refer red to the Glass charges as a “das tardly He’—and he couldn't have got away with that had he been ad mittedly talking about a senator. As sort of a capolr.g of the cli max, still further accentuating the difficulties of congressional name calling, Britten took the two words "Dastardly lie” out of the Record, substituting the words Vnot the truth.” Glass, meanwhile, had said he could prove the charge, that the culprit was dead, that he would produce proof if Brttten or eny other member cared to take respon sibility for making him do so, Tha seems to have been the end of the! Senate Votes Down Legalized Beer Washington, May 18.—The een ate today refused to legalise beer. The first senate roll calls for beer since prohibition brought ov erwhelming defeat. The main vote was on an amend ment by Senator Tydinga of Mary land, to the revenue bill to legalise 2,75 beer and tax it 24 cents a gal lon to help finance a 11,500,000,000 public construction program. Just previously the senate had turned down—80 to 23—a proposal by Bingham, Republican of Con necttcutt to alter the Tydings amendment to make it allow four per cent alcoholic content. Mellowed A HUNDRED MILLION YEARS While monsters muddied PENNSYLVANIA waters SINCLAIR Pennsylvania Motor Oil is an outstand ing example of what Nature and man working to gether can produce in a perfect automobile lubricant What did Nature do? Back in the Devonian Age, • hundred million years ago, she deposited in the Bradford-Allegany District of the Pennsylvania field the raw materials for Bradford-Allegany crude oil. And excellent materials they must have been for today Bradford-Allegany crude oil commands the highest price of all Pennsylvania grade crudes! What does man do? In the great Sinclair refinery at Wellsville, N. Y-, is machinery covered with ice and frost. This is the refrigerating apparatus by which Sinclair chills Bradford-Allegany crude down to as low as 60° F. below zero. At this low point, the non-lubricating petroleum jelly in the oil congeals and is removed by separating machinery. Thus you are assured that the full) rich body of Sinclair Penn sylvania will not turn water-thin in engine heat. Test the truth of this with a crankcaseful of Sinclair Pennsylvania. Note how the oil stands up in the heat of fast driving. Observe at draining time, how little oil has been used up — positive, visible proof of protection for the hut mile as well as the first! Note: For those who prefer a Mid continent oil we also sell Sinclair Opaline, blended from the old est Mid-continent erodes, de-waxed and also freed from petroleum jelly. * .
