C„ under the Act of March 3, 1879.

TRADE AT HOME Mecklenburg county pays more sales tax into the State treasury than it gets back in the shape of school funds, for which tfhe should thank her lucky stars. If people from surrounding counties were to quit trading in Charlotte and spend their cash in their home counties the figures would be different. PROFITS AND EMPLOYMENT We do not believe tliat anyone will disagree with the statement by the President that "unemployment is the most difficult problem before the country." None of us need to be told the (hardships of enforced idleness nor the extent to which unemploy ment affects every man and every man's business. In discussing the problem the Pres ident expressed the belief that "if the leaders in each industry will or ganize a common effort to Increase employment in that Industry, that eniDloyment wiil increase substanti ally.” Much as we would like to, we can't believe that the problem can be worked out In that direction. We do not believe, for Instance, that the leaders of the textile Industry can by organized effort, bring about in creased employment in their mills Employment does not begin with tihe wishes of the leaders of industry but rather with the ability of indus try to sell its wares at a profit The rate of employment in any in dustry keeps pace with the success it has in finding a market for it? product. We are quite sure that every mil1 executive in the country would like to eee his plant so busy that he coup utilize every possible employee. That was his reason for building his plant in tlhe first place and that was his hope when he began operations. Give a manufacturer just a chance to make a profit and he will go after it. Ho will operate his plant on full time and employ all the people that his operations require. Take away the chance for the pro fits that pay the wages and keep the plant going and 'he manufactu rer will reduce operations and em ployment because there is nothing else for him to do. Textile markets have been suffer ing from a combination of troubles, emanating mainly from Washington There is Tie threat of new taxes in cotton, the proposal to regulate the industry through the Ellenbogen bill, to mention onlv two. Fortunately employment in textile mills is still at a rather high level. It cannot continue so, however, un less there is some assurance that there will be an end to one govern ment proposal after another to band Pap tj’ie efforts oT the mills to earn enough nrnry to keep their mills in full operation. The best insurance against unem ployment is freedom from govern ment meddling.—Textile Bulletin.

By RAYMOND PITCAIRN National Chairman aj (llr Hr public Through successive generations the American people have continued to re ceive one ol the richest heritages in all history. Freedom of speech and of opportu nity . . . the right to a decisive voice in the greatest government on earth ... a national spirit of courage and self-reliance . . . public wealth beyond the dreams of Croesus — These are but a few of the treasures won in the blood and the sweat of hard-working, hard-tlsted pioneers and left to us as a natural birthright. How are we preserving that heritage? What is America doing to maintain or Increase for posterity the things our fathers won for us? What will this generation leave to those who follow? Today the list seems discouraging Its items would include: A burden of national debt which, as this is written, exceeds $21,000,000,000 — instead of an increasing national wealth. The threat of a new, alien philosophy of dependence and fear — instead of the spirit that sent Daniel Boone into the wilds of Kentucky and whole fam ilies over the hardships of the Oregon Trail. A glorification of the economic goose step — instead of the bold, free tread that could carry youth to whatever heights its strength and ability per mitted. No wonder, as it regards this pros pect, youth in America feels disinher ited. No wonder thousands of older citizens, remembering the opportunities of their own youth, are protesting against a philosophy which robs their sons of similar freedom. No wondei the true descendants of the American pioneer are insisting that personal lib erty and personal opportunity must be preserved in this country. Thousands of our ancestors fought and died to win for us those liberties and opportunities. Thousands more fought to preserve them. The newer generations have a right to enjoy the heritage. We cannot let them down. To economic sanctions we shall answer with our discipline, our spiv it of sacrifice, our obedience. To miliary sanctions we shall answer with militarism. To acts of war W ' shall answer with acts of war. — Mussolini. PARTON’S FUNERAL HOME 208 E.

He meets a larely young girl, Joan, on a park bench, and site induces him—not know ing his real identity—to take a cool: tiK.l butler job at Jtossini Manor. Jim tells her he is an automotive de signer, and when she sees his car de signs, she tries to sell them to the Atlas Motors Company. Recognizing the Buchanan touch, the Atlas presi dent has Joan arrested, thinking she stole the drawings. Rossini, furious, has Joan bailed out. Meanwhile, Jim has been persuaded by his friend, Bob, to give up the wild game. Jim, heart broken, leaves a note for Joan, which Rossini shows her. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER V It was? hard for Joan to realize that Jim was gone. Nothing left of those few days of heaven but a note. Rossini tried his best to con sole the heartbroken girl, but Ros sini wasn’t versed in the gentle art of consoling a lovelorn woman. “...somehow,” he said, “I sensed you weren't married all along... fill the time he’s going to marry Uiis pain-in-the-neck.” His eyes were cold as steel. “A punk like that ought to bo rubbed out." He nodded. ‘‘Yes—rubbed out.” Rossini tinned to Flash. "Flash you’re go ing to a wedding—with some of the boys.” His tone had a sinister rlne. ‘This wedding isn’t going to come oh', see? Ruchanan deserves it!” “Rut—but she's only your cook!” “I’jn going to marry her. Flash— and v.hat I’m asking of you will bo part of the wedding present." Flash left, his mind tilled with the unpleasant duties on hand. Joan was called in and shown the newspaper. Her eyes flared. “He must have been laughing at me nil the time—getting a great kick nut of kidding me along.” “He isn't going to worry you any more—just leave him to me!” Joan was still furious. “I'd like to see you wipe up the floor with; him.” "I'm going the limit for you, sis ter—and no matter what I do, it's “*'»t I didn't know n/iat 1 wan talking about. It anything happened w Jim, I’d never forgive myself!” (Posed by Leo Carrillo and Jean Artbei > that’?! why I made that play for you that night. I’m sorry X was so crude about it. I misjudged you .. but you appealed to me—ap pealed to me a lot.” "You make it hard for me to stay, sir,” Joan was uncomfortable, "— unless you treat me like a cook.” Rossini made a wry face. "I don’t want to treat you like a cook. 1 want to treat you like—like—you were Mrs. Rossini!’ Yes, it’s a pro posal—when I make up my mind I make it up fast.” He squeezed Joan's hand. "And you’ve got every thing. If you say yes, I’ll change my whole life around. I’ll quit the rackets and start dealing from a new deck—that’s more than James did for you.” Joan smiled. Rossini’s speech had touched her. “I'm sorry. But when I make up my mind. I don't make it up so fast.” She walked hurriedly into the kitchen. Flash burst Into the room waving a newspaper, his face excited and red. "Chief! Take a gander at this—” Ho thrust the paper in front of Rossini. Rossini read, "James Buchanan to wed Evelyn Fletcher at—so what?” "But look at the picture!” ~ Rossini looked ana his mouth hpng open. "That's James!” r "That," said Flash with «nph«»ll •Is Buchanan!” Rossini’* mouth tightened new. v-foolin* around with Joan when better than that skunk deserves!* Itossini sat down, satisfied. ‘Tv* got it all fixed—there’ll be no wa4 iling—and no Buchanan!” Fear crossed Joan's face. "No Buchanan! Oh — don’t — don't do anything rash, Mr. Rossini!" “Buchanan's off your knife—for get hi’.".” “Oh — this is terrible." Joan shuddered. “Mr. Rossini you’ve got to stop Flash—you’ve got to atop him fast!’’ "What’s the idea?” Rossini was bewildered. “But T didn't know what I was talking about. If anything hap pened to Jim, I’d never forgive my self! Don't you see. Mr. Rossini— what I've been saying is Just a lot of words. No matter ivhat he hag done—I lave him.” Rossini’s gaze turned from Joan'* pleading eyes. He scratched hit head. "Ain’t lova grand! Tim mot* I’m around women, the less I know about anything!” Rossini shrugged. "You’ve got my word—nothing’!! happen." Joan reached up suddenly and kissed Rossini on the forehead. “You you are a sweet guy.” That wae how Jim Buchanan came to he aptrlted away from hi* own wedding at the points of aer granted Into a'ear and whisked away to Roaeinl Manor, wham odd tbiuas wer« about to happen.
