Advertising: rates furnished by request FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1950 going to elect to national offices . ; A great deal political wrangling has teen gain on in thi country for years a id it appears to tu that the .problem to be solved is one of wheth er the United States is to continue along the liberal line it has. followed recently, or if Individuate will cast their votes for placing a brake, upon the idea, which seemingly is spread ing, that the government owes each of i us a living. It is our opinion that people of other States will tie much impressed by North Carolina's choice of U. S. Senators, to bo -nominated in to morrows primary, and the choice-' of the voters tomorrow may have much influence upon elections which are scheduled for other states Jater this year. If the people of North Carolina de sire to place a brake upon govern ment spending, deficit financing, and the so-called Welfare-State program, then, in our opinion, they should vote for Willis Smith for the U. S. Senate because Smith's platform points out that he la opposed to these national programs and will vote against them No Reflection The incident which occurred at Bel videre, in connection with a political rally last Wednesday a week ago, cer tainly casts no reflections upon the community or the great majority of the people therein. It is a pity that such action did happen 'but similar incidents have bee recorded in other localities throughout the world, and it is a matter for courts to handle in judging persons responsible for start ing such trouble. To our way of thinking the com munity of Belvidere had no part in the incident .other than being the scene of the disturbance and there fore carries no blemish against its name as a fine and outstanding community. if elected. " " 7 " To our way of thinking the main issue i nthe Senatorial election to morrow is whether we want the pres ent trend of national government to be continued or if we want a voice in the Senate which will oppose this trend and help to promote a more conservative type of government from Washington. . . ; " x '7 like all elections In North Carolina the decision rests with the people and it is for you to voice youc desire by going to the polls tomorrow and cast ing your vote; Take time tomorrow to cast your vote. ;, HELEN GAITHER CLUB MEETS The Helen Gaither Home Demon stration Club met May 18, at 8:00 P.

Here in Perquimans County, politi cal interest is greater than it has been for several years; We are glad to see this increased interest in elections and hope that it will be continued long after the current election is over and forgotten.
