Sermon Based On Politics 'Asheville Citizen 1 A correspondent ol the Baltimore Fun quotes from I Samuel 22.2, and suggests that this verse of Scrip ture “seems to pictuie the political situation today so accurately as to be almo. t uncanny." The verse, a readers cf this newspaper; will recall i* as follows: “And everyone that was in debt, and everyone that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him and he became a captain over them, and there were with him about four hundred men" The Sun's correspondent asks if any thing could more aptly describe the Roosevelt campaign "The question is." he adds, “.shall we turn the country over to them?" Editorially the Baltimore newspa per suggests that its correspondent would have dene well to read a lit tle further in this account by the prophet of the struggle between •Saul and David The popularity of the ruddy faced giant killer had risen amazingly jn Israel and had outrun that of the kind. The latter was jealous and angry. Moreover, lie had other troubles. Times were bad and the people were distressed They murmured and complained, and the king, as the Sun recalls, tried to blame their troubles on the accused foreigners, namely the Phil istines. He lashed out. at David and the latter fled oefore him. taking tip his headquarters in the cave of Adullam. It w'as there that the debt weary and the discontented rallied io him; and meanwhile things went from bad to.worse for Saul, until at the last he fell upon his sword and David succeeded him as king. And a pretty good king he seems to have made for the prophet goes on to relate that "David waxed stronger and stronger and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker." Israel pulled through a famine which was successfully blamed on Saul and. as the Sun says "bv the time David turned I he kingdom over to Solomon the prosperity cf the children of Israel was such that all kinds of luxuries. includ ing solid gold temples and parades for the Queen of Sheba, could hr supported," and.early in Solomon's reign it was recorded that "Judah and Isreal were many.as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry." In other words, happy days had come again. We thank our Baltimore contem porary for giving ihe full and prop rr setting to its correspondent's quotation the striking aptness of which could net otherwise bo adr ouately appreciated. We are sure that the. Democratic candidate for president will not object to being compared to the shepherd leader who slew the giant, before whom the people trembled and to whom the people; later flocked in sure and vindicated confidence that he could help get them out of the hard times rf which they were sick. \ Late Awakening.

Eng Unfrocked, dis graced and without f> rectory to call his home, the Rev. Harold David son. known as the rector of Stiffkey today laid plans eithei to go on the stage or to become a movie star. The Bishop of Norwich, in a cere monial marked by its formal dig nity, officially deprived the Stiffkey rector of his clerical living at the Bauchan chapel of the 800-year-old Norwich cathedral The Rev. Mr. Davidson was pres ent as the bishop, standing on the high altar, declared him ’‘removed, debased and degraded from his of fices of priest and "deacon He pro tested his innocence "in the sight of God" and made an effort to address the bishop directly as he marched from the chapel in formal proces : ion. The decision of thp Norwich con sistory court deprives the Rev. Mr Davidson of about £1,300 annually and the use of the Stiffkey rectory. The ousted rector lias received of fers from Hollywood to appear in the movies and is expected, sooner or later, to cross the Atlantic to un dertake a film career. For the time being, however, he intends to ex ert his efforts in making public protest against the courts decision. He may even appeal to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, he said, and he intimated that he might do a Diogenes-in-a-tub" performance in front of the bishop's palace. Having established a reputation from sitting in barrels in Blackpool. London and elsewhere; the ex-rec tor has hit upon the idra of renting a sect oh of land irr front of the , gates of the bishop's palace at Nor wich and exhibiting ins person in a barrel as a protest against his re : moval. Davidson was found guilty of five charges of immoral relations with | young girls wdiom. he said, he was : trying to save from sin.., He was [tried by an ecclcasiastical court.

Washington.—It may occasion re joicing in some quarters that an unusual number of college profes sors have gone into the sordid business of politics. In some states they are running for office A couple are helping one of the presidential candidates as semble his material and prepare his speeches. In at. least one state oth ers have actually become a cam paign Issue The spectacle of professors tn politics is by no means new. You may remember President Woodrow Wilson, who was praised for hts scholarship and his progressive idealism and damned for his arbi trary school teachers’ attitude There arp ex-profeasors in Con gress now. the most conspicuous of them to come to mind being Sena tor Simeon D. Fess of Ohio and Senator Hiram Bingham of Con necticut. Bingham taught at Harvard, Prin ceton and Yale. Fess taught his tory at Ohio Northern and was president of Antioch College. Both belong to the extrcine conservative wing of the Republican party and neither has brought anything new or interesting into the political scene. The situation tn Connecticut, where Bingham is up for reflection, has been all cluttered up with pro fessors. The outstanding Democrat there is Governor Wilbur L Cross, who was dean of the Yale Gradu ate school and has always been an instructor and an expert on Eng lish literature me man wnn may neat mngnam s Professor Albert Levitt, an lnsur rent Republican who is running on i dry, independent ticket and Us >ut to lick the Republican state ma chine owned by J. Henry Roraback. Levitt has no chance of winning the Uect.lon himself, but if the contest s close he may draw, off enough cotes from Bingham to give it to Congressman Augustine Lonergan, the Democratic nominee Professor Harry M. Ayres of Westport, a Columbia University professor and former member of the legislature, seemed fairly certain to be the Democratic nominee against Professors Bingham and Levitt un til he fell into a -ow between the Smith-Roosevelt fact tons and was nosed out by Lonergan Professor Raymond Molev. a Co lumbia university economist, is fre quently described as the chief Roosevelt strategist Out in Utah the Democratic sen atorial nominee is professor Elbert D. Thomas, who threatens to steal the toga of the venerable Senator Reed Smoot. l*e is 49, teaches po litical science and history at the University of Utah and, like Smoot, is a Mormon—although smoot may receive church support in the end because of his high church posi tion. Paul V. McNutt, likely to be elected as Democratic governor of Indiana, is a former head of the American Legion, a business man and a politician, but he also has been dean of the Indiana University school of .aw since 1925. He is an aggressive champion of public util ity regulation Professor Jcnninis FLsndolDV1 3 Democratic nominee for congress in West Virginia, teaches rhetoric, and oratory at David and Elkins col lege. Doughton Chance For An Important Office Is Better North Carolinian May Hr Chair man Of Way* And Mean* < ommlttfr. Washington. -The* withdrawal of Representative W Colllrr ol Mississippi from the Democratic race for re-election has placed Representative Robert L, Dough top of l aurel Springs, North Caro j Una. in line for the chairmanship; of the wavs and mentis committee in the seventy-third eon grew With the resignation from (he house early this month of Reprc entaltve Charles R Crisp, of Geo: - gm, aeting-ehalrman of the com mittee, Representative Henry 1 Rainey ot Illinois, was left as the next ranking majority member, but, Inasmuch as Mr. Rainey Is ntn Jorlty leader of the house, it is not thought likely that he will be a candidate to succeed Chairman Col - lier. I)mighlnn Rank* Next Representative Doughton ranks next to Rainey, and according to the seniority rule which has long prevailed in the lower chamber, Mr. Doughton will be automatical ly promoted Even if Representative Collier had been re-elected this fall. It is considerrd doubtful If he could have remained long as chairman of the ways and means committee He has been suffering from very poor health, and during the last session of congress was compelled to give way to Representative Crisp Ot course, Mr, Doughton* chance of becoming chairman depends pri marily upon whether the house goes Democratic next month, but j no serious or impartial mind Ini Washington today believes, or hardly entertains a hope, (hat the seventy- third congress will be less Democratic than it was the second session of the'seventy-second. To Fight Kales Tax When arid if Repfescntatlvt Doughtojl dofs assume (he rhalr maiwhip nf the committee which initiate.*; and largely molds the fed eral fiscal policy of the country, one thing is certain, and that is that hr will be an uncompromising foe of those members who will, in all probability, revive the manufac turers' sales tax fight. During the last session of con gress, when the sales tax was pro posed, Mr. Donght.on stood almost atone among his Democratic col leagues In bitterly condemning every move made for such a tax. He led what at first appear to be o minority fight against the Garner Rainey-Crisp move io incorporate a sales tax in the 1932 revenue bill, but hr persisted in his opposition until he was joined by 'the insur gent progressive. Republican La Ouardla of New York's tipper east side, and later by other Republi cans and members of his own party front the southland. Even tually Mr. bought on won his fight and he was credited with a large share of the victory by all house members. Persistent Fighter Mr Doughton is a persistent and insistent fighter when he bellet*s he is right., and as chairman of the ways and means committee he is right, and as chairman of the ways and means committee he would be in a formidable position to prevent even the reconsidera tion of a sales tax on the floor of the house From present indications, h.ow r\rr, all effort he might, put forth to curb a revival of the srtlas tax fight will b<* met with the sternest, opposition, and. if the present treasury deficit continues to pile up, there are a !avge number of fiscal experts in Washington who believe that a manufacturers' .sales tax, or some other agency of equal revenue producing potentialities, will have to be resorted to if the nation's finances are again to he placed on a budget balancing ba*i* TRt ‘TEE'S EAtr, Bv virtue of deed of trust executed 28th day ©t September, 1929, by JR, B HiKRina and wife Virgin4:*. to- B T Falls, trustee for the Cleveland Building and Loan association, to secure an in debtedness and recorded in book 157. page 451 of the registry for Cleveland county, N. 0, and after default and da rt] and, I will sell to the highest bidder at the rourt house door in Bhelby on: Monday, November ‘ft.
