APPRECIATED TEAMWORK President Hoover and President-elect Roosevelt are twing the proper spirit, the spirit that should prevail ong all citizens now that partisan battles of the cam gn have ended. President Hoover invited his succes 1 to sit in upon the conference on international debts, at was a broad, sensible course to pursue, and Mr, , Roosevelt is to be commended along with Mr Hoover accepting the invitation. When it is the country's lfare and not party success at stake, then teamwork ans much. OCR MINISTERS RKTl KN The Star believes it is. expressing the sent iment of si by Methodists as well as members of other denomi ions in saying that the city is glad to have Dr. E. K. Larty and Rev. W. R. Jenkins returned to the local trehes by the Western North Carolina conference, e same thing is true of the other ministers returned the county—Rev. J. M. Randall, Rev. J. M. Barber 1 others. Only one or two ministers from this immed ! section were transferred to other charges, and in iressihg regret over their departure we take the op tunily of welcoming the new pastors, Rev. W I,, itt. Rev. Wade Johnson and others. STATE OF MINI) IMPROVES There is more and more evidence of a general im vement in business and economic conditions. In ad icing that observation we do not intend, as has been custom for several months, to present a series of jfc showing that unemployment is decreasing and that :es are on the upgrade. That could be done, eer ily, but just now we propose to base our better-busi s observation upon a psychological change, or h trans mation, if you prefer it that way, in the state of mind. A month or more ago there was a big percentage of pie who just could not be told that there Seemed to n change for the better in business conditions. Show m figures indicating a gain in car loadings, a pick-up imployment. and advancing prices and they remained ptical. They were not only in the dumps financially mentally as well. Just how much an election may tn in the light of damaging or improving business leave for the economic experts to say, but the recent tion has offered ample proof that a change, particu y when a pessimistic atmosphere prervails, can better mental outlook. With no intention of turning istian Scientist, we contend that the state of mind 3 mean much. A man cannot be made to feel pros ms when his pockets are empty ami there is a gnaw of hunger in his innards. That is admitted. Neither a man who never believes things will get better hope lave prosperity run over him. All of which, in a ibling way, is to say that since the election even the dmists appear to be cheered up, and if business is ly, as many think, showing a slow but steady upward lb, then it goes without question that a more opti fcic viewpoint by all concerned will do much to speed ;he recovery. NOT AN EXCEPTIONAL K.ESI I T There are any number of voters who would apptv e it, we dare believe, if the following' dipping eon ling the recent election were cut out and pasted up future reference by all prospective candidates in t he t political campaign: “Henry Pepping, studying results of his tin tccessful race as the Republican nominee for at ►rney general of Missouri, has made a discovery. “The only county he carried was Ozark conn down in the hill country next to the Arkansas tie. “'And that,’ Pepping reflected today, ’is Ihe ily county of the 111 in Missouri in which I did not akc.a speech'.” The Pepping case is the only one we have ever :d of in which a candidate won only the lone section vhich he failed to speak, but numerous votes have t made and lo?t along those lines. It would—al tgh it shouldn’t—surprise the average office-seeker In know just, how bored the rank and file of citizens' be come with the over abundance of oratory, or so-called oratory, at campaign time. That some politicians real ize it is shown by the fact tliar in times past shrewd politicians have figured it best that certain candidates stay as far away as possible from certain sections. For instance, recall the lack;of oratory by the Democratic vice president-elect in the recent campaign. There are those, we admit without making any proud hullabaloo about it, who are really fond of hand-shaking, baby-kiss ing, back-patting, stump-speaking, etc., but in recent years, we observe with some jubilance, more and more people are becoming disgusted with that method of seek ing Votes. If what we prefer to call progress continues along that line, it may not be many years before the average candidate will realize that he runs the risk of losing more votes than he catches by "making too much of a fuss" over t he voter. Practically all of us, it should be said in fairness, do enjoy hearing one or two real i hought-provoking addresses each campaign, hut enough of a good tiling is enough, and the average voter, man and woman, has about reached the conclusion that he or she has enough sense to vote without the back-patting and sugary slobbering. Anyway, those with ambitions to offer their services to the public may do well to re member that the-Missouri candidate won only the county in which he did not speak HOO\ Kit I NK G. O. I*. (.OAT? Will the Republican party, defeated In the great est landslide in political history, attempt t.o. make Mr, Hoover, its standard-hearer, the goat? Perhaps it is merely our way of going about it, but wi' are inclined to read such an intimation between the lines in some of Mark Sullivan's after-election writing. Mr. Sullivan, very optimistie about.' Republican prospects j prior to November 8. now says that the Republican wise men knew all along that they were going down in de feat. In attempting a come-back four or eight years lienee, they are certain not to pick Mr. Hoover as a can didate adds. He bases that prediction upon the alleged fact that the Republican leaders, the powers behind the throne, have never been overly fond of Mr. Hoover any way. Somehow we cannot connect the pre-election Sul livan and the after-election Sullivan. If Republican leaders knew Roosevelt, would win, why did Mr. Sulli van, in his newspaper writing, continue to he optimistic about a Hoover victory right up until the last minute? That question becomes the more perplexing when one re calls that Sullivan is supposed to be "on the inside” of Republican information. Either Mark was not inform ed of the Republican anticipation of defeat, or he pre ferred to think otherwise himself and speak according ly to his readers. The same inconsistency is shown in the alleged after-election attitude about Hoover. Did the Republicans, sensing defeat, decide to let Mr. Hoover be the goat and thus save the face of the party for a come-back in the future? If that be the case, then it goes without saying that the party is selfish. Mr, Hoover, whose political faith was unknown in the Wil son regime, certainly stood by the party loyally, and al though Hoover as an individual had the campaign cen tered upon him much of the discontent was due not to Mr. Hoover’s own ideas but to typical Republican policies which he was forced to accept and endorse or accepted and endorsed willingly. The Republicans need not think | they can get by in 1936 by intimating that Mr. Hoover was entirely to blame for the administration which forc ed the Republicans out of power. A Republican attempt ot that type would merely serve to remind that the party looked upon Theodore Roosevelt in t he same man ner. When Teddy was in power and making the most ot it, the Republican leaders almost despised him. That feeling grew when T. R. split the party in 1912, but in the 1932 campaign, with another Roosevelt running, re call what an idol they made of the once hated Teddy, the only Roosevelt, they contended, worth a whoop. I he once Grand Old Party may, as Mark intimates, attempt to pass the buck to Hoover, but if Mark is cor rect in such an intimation it likewise appears that the party also permitted Mark to hold the sack. They knew, I e says now, that they were going to get licked, but, j tor some reason or another, they permitted Mark to j keep on being optimistic about a victory until Monday evening. Nov. 7. Perhaps that is one rearson the G. O. j I has held on as long as it has: it can, or so it seems, j null the wool over the eyes of Hoovers and Sullivans.

It will be recalled tnat some three | weeks ago you published lor me in I’he Star a non-partisan article. In j that article I stated some facts, but did not mention any particular party or candidate A Mr. Bridges I replied to this uhitle. injecting i quite a bit cf partyism into his rc iply. I rejoined him. and a genial or friendly debate ensued. Some of my Democratic friends have told me that they enjoyed the humor of the ! debate. But I have been informed that some others were offended at | me for my part in the debate. To the latter class I wish to say 'that I am making no apology. There ' is none due. I did not start the de bate and meant no harm by taking | part in it. I did not mean to of | tend any one It was only a fnend | ly debate and I thought it would be iiegarded as such by all intelligent ; readers. Furthermore, 1 do not understand I by what process of reasoning any one should think hat Mr. Bridges ;had a perfect right, to shoot at me and that I had no right to shoot back But it tends to show how narrow and onesided some |»eoplc are. However he storm has blown over ahd I accept the results as brave and courageous as any one. and here is hoping that the pure jand beautiful things of life may be in evidence and that the future may be bright and pleasant for all. S C. CRAWLEY. I Lattlmorr N C. DON’T GLOAT [ OVER VIC TORY The election j.s ove;' and the vic tory won by the Democrats with the help of the most brainy members of the Republican party. Now we, as Democrats should not gloat too much over our achievement but should extend the right hand of tel lowship to those honest men like Hiram Johnson, Norris and others who came over to Macedonia and helped us. . Hiram Johnson made Woodrow' Wilson president and gave tremen dous support to Roosevelt and the Democratic ticket this year. His in fluence will be greatly needed in helping to Iron out the mistakes of the Hoover administration. It is go ing to take the ablest minds in con gress to bring us out of this dilem ma and put our great nation on its feet once more. As to the liquor question, I am here to tell the people JJiat we need not worry about prohibition. Our grand old commonwealth will never suffer open barrooms but will work to get rid of these secret saloons. It was not a fight against whiskey, but a fight against graft and ex travagance and to get rid of those conditions, some of the best Re publicans came to the redemption of our great nation. Johnson and Norris would be good councilors in the cabinet, not that the Demo cratic party has r.ot got plenty of able men. but such rnen as John son and Norris should be recogniz ed and given the right hand of fel lowship. I say again, now is no time to gloat over the great vic tory. but extend the hand of fel lowship to those who voted with us. J. Z. FALLS. Shelby Nov. 15. 32.
