McLendon, Durham, would not be the least bit embarrassed if John Sprunt Hill, Of the same city, and state senator, decides to make the race for gov ernor in the Democratic primary in June. "If Mr. Hill decides to run for governor. I am for him,” Major McLendon said while In Raleigh He said that he and Mr. Hill were good friends and that they had been together in practically every political fight, especially locally, for many years, and that It would not embarrass him at all for Mr. Hill to become a candidate. Major McLendon has been frequently mentioned as a passible candidate for governor himself, and he and Mr. HU! both are Durhamltes. Mr. Hill has been suggested as a possible candidate and It la believ ed that such a thought has enter-: ed his mind* and that he may even! be toying with the idea. He Is credited everywhere with being an able, public spirited and very valu able citizen, even If a bit vocative. It is also known that he Is a man ■ of wealth and would have no trou ble In conducting a campaign, from | that point of view. It is also as serted that with the proper cam I paign management, he could make |a whale of a riffle on the North] ' Carolina electorate. By no means a slouch at any , thing he undertakes, Mr. Hill was a member of the state highway commission for a decade, while the huge road program was under way. He opposed very strenuously the reorganization sponsored by Oov jernor Gardner two years ago, ln I eluding taking over support of 'county roads. However, when de feated, he took his medicine, and, although a member of the 1933 gen eral assembly, he made no more nor had any Inclination to undo what had been done. He also op posed the “unholy alliance” of the highway and prison departments. He may join probably a dozen others, all prospective, as a candi date for governor. They Include Lieut .-Gov. A. H. Graham, Hills boro; Major McLendon; Col. T. L. Kirkpatrick and John A. McRae, Charlotte; former Judge T. L. Johnson. Asheville, Tam C, Bowie, West Jefferson; R. Gregg Cherry, Gastonia; R. P. Harris, Roxboro; E. B. Jeffress, Greensboro, and "Farm er Bob" R. L. Dough ton, Laurel Springs, with possibly others. At present, however, Major Mc Lendon is looked upon as a more likely candidate for the U. S. sen ate. in opposition to Senator J. W. Bailey, than he Is as a candidate for the gubernatorial nomination. Nor is it considered as likely that Congressmen Frank W. Hancock, Oxford; Lindsay Warren, Washing ton or other members of congress would give up "sure" re-election for a chance at the senatorship Just now. McLeondon is the best bet. Gives Example Of Best Of Oratory Jud«r Webb's Remark about Evo lution One Of Three. iT, M. Pridgen in Charlotte News-* In all the realm of oratory, Coun ty Accountant Doug Bradshaw dis covers that three speeches stick out In his mind as being according to his idea of superb. One Judge Yates Webb made in ] explaining why he would make no discourse on the subject of evoly- j tlon. He quoted the Judge "1 am too ignorant on the sub ject to discuss it intelligently, and l am too intelligent to discuss it ignorantly." His Oliver favorite bit ol oratories' retort was made by Miss Carrie Mc Lean when she was in the legisla ture. She had worked for the Aus tralian ballot system, but the omni potent polittcans pointed out thsr the people were too ignorant to vote that way. Also, she had work ed for an educational appropriation and was told that the state could not afford to spend the money Pretty soon someone had the bright Idea of a state radio station costing MO.OOO. Miss Carrie sought the privilege of asking the speaker a question. “What," she l.iqulretl "shall we broadcast—that we ire too poor to educate our children and too ignorant to vote?" That was the last of the state radio sta - tion The third public utterance was by his former chief in the country cessful administration of industrial codes. Without their close vigilance i the program can not succeed.” i She does not believe the struggle between capital and leboi wtv ’ with the recovery act. Head Big Paper Began Career As A “Carrier Boy” >\dnl|)i’ Orbs, Publisher New > ork Times, Was Once Juri Carrier. Hendersonville Tlmes-News For the encouragement and in spiration of It* own carrier*, The TlmeS-News herewith prints a let ter by Adolph Ochs, publisher oi The New York Times and The Chattanooga (Tenn.) Times to the carrier hoy* of the last named pap er. This newspaper hopes the car riers will give this letter careful reading, and then cut It out anc keep It for future reference; anr we also urge all readers of the pap er to give consideration to Mr. Ochs message to the carriers of the Chat tanooga paper. It is as follow*: "I am proud that I began my newspaper career as one of youi guild. “Sixty-five years ago. when I wa:■ a boy of 11 years of age, my firs, acquaintance with a newspaper of ice was when I was given a news paper route on the Knoxville Chro nicle at Knoxville, Tennessee. "f had to appear at the office five o'clock In the morning. T'> paper came from the press unfold ed. and the carrier boys had to foil the papers by hand. There we; fifty papers to be delivered on m. route, and I had to walk nearly four miles to deliver them, then home for breakfast and thence to school. For this task I received 25 cents a day ($1.50 per week). “I did my work conscientiously,; and in wet weather .1 saw that the paper was put In a dry place. In those days we had Carrier Boys' Christmas Address, and, so excel lent was my service on my route, j I received a nice little Chlrstinas present from eveiy one on my route. One of the notable recollections of those days is that Father Ryan, a Catholic prleat at Knoxville, who, perhaps, had been a carrier boy in his boyhood, gave me two dollars as a Christmas present. “My work was not a matter of choice, but It was a welcome little contribution to my family's needs I thus learned to work, be helpful, and to do my work conscientiously, and thus attracted the attention of people who gave me good-will and encouragement. Now, rs I loo’,-' back upon those days, I regard it j as a fortunate episode In my life' that I began so early to work and be helpful to my family. “I wish you all Joy In your work Be interested, and do your work to the best of your ability. Choose good company, and try every dav to learn something useful. Respect yourselves and you will win the respect of others. Do not spend your time idly looking for oppor tunities. There is a better chance at opportunities if you apply your selves industriously to your task. Do nothing that will make your mothers ashamed of you, and the chances are that opportunity will be looking for you, and come to you unsought and unobserved.” An Interesting statement made by Mr. Ochs in the foregoing letter Is that tn regard to the work he did for the Knoxville Chronicle as a carrier and the amount he was paid for it. No doubt Mr. Ochs' wages were as good as the average for that time, but he made much less than the average newspaper carrier is able to make today. In fact, a careful compilation of records for the country shows that 600,000 car riers now employed by the dally newspapers of the country make in average wage or profit per week hat is a little more than double shat Mr. Ochs was paid tn Knox i’ille.
