The law would require the counting of all such votes. A political party Is defined as one which polled certain number of votes in 1914. That date was set fol lowing the 18i2 failure of either Re publicans or Progressives to poll 50.- i 00 votes in the celebrated Taft-Teddy feud. The date was moved up from 1900 to 1914. There has been set no date for* the meeting of the State board, which is called by the chairman. In some states. Judge J Crawford Biggs, chairman of the board said, minor parties are required to submit petitions signed by a certain percent age of the voters in the previous election. If North Carolina would adopt the minimum, one per cent, petitions with 6,500 names would have to be sub mitted. The 192» vote was approxi mately 650.000. The maximum per centage ia 15. North arolina has no set rule, but Attorney General Dennis G. Brummitt is of the opinion the board of elec tions has authority to make one. Ten thousand voters must sign petitions for an indetendent candidate or a candidate of a minor party to get their names on a primary ballot under the primary law. ii mi ONLY DAILY NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED ing in the department of com merce building, Washington, D.

Aug. 12.- Representative I W. C.

The torture which came to Mra. Ewing and the neighbors was tha I word "Kilowatt." Mrs. Ewing came to something of a biological complex to -1 ward it. a sort of feminine aversion j that is found in fear of the mouse. More than 90 days she heard “kilo watt" from 1,000 to 1,000.000 times a day. It almost hilled her, and Mr. Ewing Is suspending conversation on the subject. However, "kilowatt” Is as certain to come here In January as the inau guration. nd legislation that lifts far more revenue than that of the revenue bill of 1931 is sure to be offered.

Aug. 12.—<|AP) —Ways of making home more attractive and “the road’’ less so were suggested to day by the Children’s Bureau of the Labor Department as part of a cam paign to keep youths under 21 years from joining the vast habo army in increasing numbers. But conditions at home—-where in sufficient charity sometimes has re placed a steady earned income—and the usual hitch-hiking or walking in search of adventure or something to do. They come from every state in the union. Most go toward the south, the' southwest, and Florida. The bureau proposed two principal) attacks on the problem. One would: “Rob the open road of all the! glamour which it naturally holds for' the venturesome lad, and picture con ditions as they actually exist." The other would help youths realize they have a recognized and more welcome place in the home community. As hazards and deprivations of hoboing, the bureau enumerates: Food principally of coffee, bread and beans; scant medical care; on the railroad alone 50 youths were kill ed and 100 injured last winter hop jP!| i Wk fcrjfil Ti7irn|KTiTTwHß^fc ■jw w* -'ysSsßi. ir Jgp life, y;iaP' Hhl 1 _mtL.

If tne boys even then will not stay at home, the bureatx urged that every community be prepared to assimilate them in nindly and friendly fashion when they arrive. INDUSTRIAL BOOM MAY BE CLOSE IN WAKE OF ADVANCE (Continued from Page One.) had its trifling effect, butrthe moment had arrived for artificial stimulation to do much good. Consequently it was an effect which quickly wore off. The hypodermic needle doubtless is play ing its part now, in an effort to hasten recovery, but this time invalid busi j n «ss appears really to be regaining a certain amount of strength on its own account. Sensing, it, speculators are hustling to get in on the ground floor. Senator Thomas P. Gore of Okla homa, who is one of the best-posted I economists in the upper house of con gress, told me nearly two years ago that he felt sure there must be no lifting in the depression until all sorts of prices had reached bed rock and stayed there lohg enough to prove to the public that bed rockr was what they unquestionably were resting on. '.Becauae," said the senator, “no one le going to buy anything that he can postpone buying If he thinks that, by waiting, he can buy it for lees.” Representative David J. -Lewie of Maryland, who leads among econo mists in the lower congressional cham ber. recently supplemented this rea soning with an expression of hie own opinion that most thrifty folk, from protracted economizing, have acquired the habit of “making things do” too firmly to break it while they have anything left that they can continue to make de. N i Many authorities can be found who hold that the bed rock stage suggested by Senator Gore was reached some while ago and that the present slight advance in various basic commodities, hints at a general upward movement soon—which should encourage buying.' lest desired articles cost more. Tnere perhaps is justification also for the surmise that the situation de scribed by Representative Lewis has been arrived at, too—with the average home sinking below the level of bare necessities. That purchase* cannot be made, no matter how badly needed, if funds ab solutely are lacking, of course, is true. Nevertheless, it is indisputable that there does exist throughout the coun try a vast reserve of financial re source which has been latent for hard upon three years. Wall Street, then, takes the view that the jarring loose of this ac culumlated demand is imminent—im mediately if Republican efforts are successful in dynamiting the dam;- early in 1933 at (he farthest. If so, it is obxious That a period 'of great industrial is to be loole-' ed for in the*'near future—maybe)At once; maybe a few months hence. Naturally the prospect angaadarf market icti^r.

In the face of the 1,000 .wordk he devoted to the subject, the Republican nomiittee declared four separate times that he was opposed to the saloon. Unquestionably that word will recur many, many times In com ing weeks as Republican speakers seek to brand the Democratic party as the “saloon party." The designation, of course. Is in dignantly disavowed by Democratic leaders, who contend their repeal plank would mean neither a return of saloons nor the other ruinous result predicted by the President Even submission n&s oeen opposed by some of the more militant dry so cieties. although they 'have Indicated they would concentrate' their energies on electing acceptable members of Congress, rather than a president.

Depositors in the First National Bank who refuse or fail to sign the new agreement will be adopting a suicidal policy. If they gave their co operation in the first attempt, they can do so now with greater assurance that pledges made to them can and will be redeemed. There is practically the same guaranty of getting the en tire amount of deposits back under the new plan as under the old one, and certainly the latest one will not decrease the stability of the new bank. There is simply this about the bank's statue. Every one concerned ought to know this moment whether or not he or she intends at the pre sent time or any other time to sign that agreement. Those who expert to sign should make it their business to do it, and do it right now without fur ther delay. Those who have not and who never intend to, if they have fi nally and definitely so made up their minds, ought to let the bank’s offi cials know it. In any event, whatever we are going to do as a community about this bank, let's do it quickly. For nearly eight months the biggest question on the tongues and in the minds of Henderson people has been, "When will the First National Bank open?’’ or “Do you suppose the bank will reopen?" Eight months ought to be long enough for any community to make up its mind about a thing of this sort. We have dallied with It for close on to two-thirds of a year, and it is time we were bringing the mat ter to s head, once and for aIL While all this is true, let’s make up our minds not to let the movement fall through. There is too much at •take to admit of failure. We can do It, and do it in another week just as easily as we can do it in another month or three months. There is nc reason under the shining sun to keep putting off positive action. Let’s get the job behind us; let’s make It a rousing success, and let’s o{ien that bank and get it back where ft la needed, in the business life of and this section.'lt is •feh challenge and an urge to ac tion. To fail will be a suicidal policy not only for those who had money in the old hank, but likewise for other Interests in this community, at least in so far as these funds are concerned. Busy men are giving their time ,to this task in the interest of those who have money at stake. They are get ting no pay for that effort. Yet the very people for whom they are labor ing are showing the least appreciation of their services. Depositors ought not to have to he begged to sign their funds. If they fail to do so, and the hank is then liquidated under a gov ernment receivership, thousands of people fn this section are going to wish a thousand times they had given their cooperation, but it will then be too late. This newspaper has been chided for its much writing byway of trying to. further the cause of the new hank. Well, the Daily Dispatch has consid ered it an opportunity for whatever modest service it might give. Whaf has been dona has been given gladly. The fight may he lost, bat there is an old saying that no ess a is ewer whip ped until he admits his defeat. We do not admit that Henderson has been whipped yet in this undertaking. a BMfiEars Annex. Courageous advertising to stl—late the greater buying power that still re mains with the American people was urged recently by Fr—els H. Meson, vice-president of the Guaranty Trust Company at New York City. “When business men most urgently need to increase their sales,” he said, "their efforts in that direction should be the most strenuous. Instead of ap plying this principle, most business men appear to regard advertising as a luxury that is to ba indulged in only in prosperous times. "This tendency cannot he justified hy the assertion that when the mar ket disappears it is useless to ad vertise for it. The actual shrinkage in the volume of business is not so great as is generally supposed. The vast majority of waga earners remain em ployed. Their wages and salaries, while reduced to some extent, do not fall more rapidly than the cost of liv ing. Total purchasing power in phy sical quantities of goods is reduced i comparatively little." I The business man and merchant I who refuses to see his own prospects j in the manner as outlined by this New York banker is standing in his own j light. It is but natural that the news l paper Itself should urge its own af fairs. but too many merchants look upon that advice as purely selfish, though it is not. Moreover, here is an authority who has no direct interest at stake on either side, except that i he wishes to see the greatest pros perity possible. His advice to busi ness is both sensible and reliable. Here in Henderson this week a great effort has been made to put on a trade week. A number of merchants bought five inch spaces to tell about their i bargains, and if this little mite fails j to fill their houses they will say ad vertislng does not pay. Precious few business concerns in Henderson today are giving their advertising even the most infinitesimal chance to demon strata that it can pay them. A live, wide-awake business community that wants business and goes after It will find that there Is still business to be had and that will be had, even In depression times. i UNDULY SUSPICIOUS. “I imagine the newspapers are be hind it,” the assistant solicitor of For syth Superior Court told the judge yesterday when It came to the atten tion of the court that the grand jury was investigating the number of cases no! pressed. Whereupon the judge Is quoted as raying, “Well, if they will attend to their own business, they will have enough to do.” Without pausing to discuss what constitutes a newspaper’s business, it would be interesting to know the re action of members of the grand jury to the insinuation that the newspapers are directing their deliberations. The assistant solicitor is too sus picious. This is the first we have heard of any newspaper instigating a grand jury investigation of the assis tant solicitor's office in this county. We seriously doubt, therefore that the grand jury is acting at the request of any newspaper. But, if newspaper should suggest to the grand jury that It investigate he office of the assistant solicitor, the office of solicitor, or any other office in Forsyth county, we should think *uch newspaper would be acting clear ly within its rights, not only as a citizen, but also as a member of the Fourth Estate. Indeed, its quite possible to conceive at circumstances and conditions un der which It would not only be a newspaper's right but its solemn ligation and duty to the public which It serves to demand a grand jury in vestigation of some public office. If the grand jury should decide of its own volition to investigate the office of assistant solicitor or any other office in the county, we should ‘hink It most certainly would have both legal and moral right to do so. No public office should be Immune from a grand jury Investigation. Not only the door, but the records of every public office should be wide open to the grand jury.—Winston- Salem Journal.

ASSOCIATED AND CENTRAL PRESS SERVICE SOUTHERN MARKETS OPEN COMING WEEK I South Carolina Belt Get* Under Way Tuesday, Georgia Thursday PRICE TREND AWAITED Svtrj On* 1* Uuliui And Hoping For Improvement This Year; Crop Reported Shortest On# snme tflS Men wro grow tobac'o and those %ho help to market the crop In this section turned their eyes today to ward the Georgia and South Carolina belts, whefe the season gets under wav in thi coming week. A number of local tobacco men who will be en gaged in the various markets of the two belts have either gone to the scene of their labors or will g?t out over the week-end. Those remaining behind will aw.ui anxiously and hopefully for the first word of the trend of paces as selling gets under way early In the week. For the first time in years, the South Carolina belt will start ahead of Georgia, the border get-, ting off to a season start Tuesday, while in Georgia the selling begins on Thursday and theie will run for 12 aaies days, or until September 2. Both belts have greatly reduced orops. as compared with a year ago Georgias yield has been estimated as low as 20.0ti0.000 pounds, compared with more than 100.000.00 Q pounds in 1930 and something less than that in 1931. South Carolina is estimated to ha e around half of last year's volume and much the same ratio obtains in I the various North Carolina bells. This condition is the ground for the hopes of better prices, although nowhere is J a runaway market looked for. Government reports are that the 1932 tobacco crop is the smallest since 1913. except one The Dtpartment of; Agriculture estimate issued last Wed nesday. showed a «!c* line of 41.0U0000 pounds in prespcctKe production fiom a month ago. with a total crop of 1.- 0i1.97.%.000 pounds indicated for the entiie crop on August 1. which was; 36.9 percent of normal, as compared with 06.1 percent a month ago. Pro duction last year was 1.601.000000 pounds. and the average production for five years. 1921-28. was 1.299.000.000 1 pounds. The acreage thi.- year is given a* 28 7 percent smaller than last! year the total being 1.447 000 acres, as I compered with 2.030.000 acres last year and 1.700.000 as the 1924-28 average. Some decline in nearly all states was reported. Litt'e rain has fallen in this section during the past week as a boost of i the crop toward maturity. What has been received, however, has tended to improve the stand in the fields, end has caused mu* h of the weed to broaden out. with a good chance for texture and weight to be acquired between now and cutting if seasons •hculd be favorable. Many sections have had some rain. And a precipitation of Thursday even ing appears to have been general over the section, though it was not anything like as much as needed to get the best results. Rains from now on would help the crop tha* is in the field, but the in controvertible fact remains that the acreage is low. being estimated all tha way from %0 to 70 percent under lash* “year's plantings, nue to early cold' .Weather, and pests ;,nd plant diseases There is hope, however, ttu.t such crops as there rat in the field will yet pmk up and show a fair quality of leaf. Some curing has been done here and there, but the crop is late and farm- 1 er« will give It every' chance to pro gress toward further advantageous matuntv before they take it to the barns for “uring. There are men and women possess ed of many strong points unable to •uceeed because they fail to make their varied talcr.ls work in harmony.

Plank Chapel Has Bible Study Class The Woman's Missionary Society of 1 I’hnk Chapel held its Bible Study I Class on Wednesday. August 10, at Fail view Farm, home of Mrs. J. B. Allen. Mr. and Mrs. Allen weTe most ~;racious hosts to the twenty mem bers of the class. Mrs. T. C. Gill, president of the -oc9>ty. had charge of the program, assisted by Mrs. H. T. Mitchell, Sup erintendent of Bible Study and Mis sions. The class study of the Book of Acts was conducted by Mrs. A. B Deans and Miss Clara E. Giil. A big black-board was nailed to a lice out in tihe shady lawn where the class was assemmbled; an exhaustive out run study of "The Acts" was given by the leader, fifteen women having been assigned sections of the outline for special study. A map showing "the Pauline World” was suspended from another tree and Miss Clara Gill gave a very clear and comprehensive 'review of this missionary book, with special reference to that angLe of the *‘ory. Several books of reference and other helps were used in the work. Each one had h6r Bible as a text book and rea IStudy of the text was made; most timely and interest ing discussions were enured into in open forum style, these proving very helpfufl. Rev. R. E. Pittman and Mrs. Pittman, honorary members of* the societfy, added much to the class discussions. Mrs. Pittman conducted the devotional period at beginning of the morning and afternoon sessions. The singing of favorW, heymns, the scripture readings, and prayers seem ed especially dear, as we sat out un der the tr*-es on the beautiful lawn of Fairvie Ten Commandments (Second Table) THE WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (Che £rol6ett (Text JS BIS I r Thou (halt levs thjr neighbor at thytelf.—Lev. 19:18. By DR. ALVIN E. BELL The International Uniform Lesson fctr August 14 is Exodus 20:12-21. the Golden Text being Lev. 19:18. “Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself. As deary as the first table of God’s law sets forth our duties toward God, the second table sets forth our duties toward our fellow men. It is the set ting forth of moral duties as the fruitage of religion; of right atttudes toward humanity consequent upon right attitudes toward deity. This phase of God’s law begins with *our duties to our closest neighbors— our parents. It sets up the law of love in the child’s earliest social world— the home. Here it lays the foundation for respect for government and au thority In the child's subsequent so cial worlds of school and church and state. "There is no place like home," because there is no place where love and law are so nearly synonymous. "Honor thy father and thy mother" Is not only "the first commandment with promise.” but it is first in ts its essential place in social lfe as the foundation of all eocal relationships. Sac redness of Life. “Thou shalt not kill” is the word by which God seeks to guard man’s most precious heritage of life. “All that a man hath will be given for his life.” Yet how militarism and indus trialism have tended to cheapen hu man life! Only the overt act of mur der is forbidden by this command ment, but the more refined and cus tomary cruelties by which our neigh bors’ health and happiness and wel fare are set- at naught in the Inter ests of greed and gain. “Thou shalt not commit adultery* i* God’s effort to safeguard the san- pense and loss of time.

This table of the law allots 19 word# in exalting what man Is to every word it uses in defense of what man has. Our human laws practically reverse the proportion. But honesty and integrity are their own best rewards entirely aside from con siderations of right and wrong. Saoredness of Truth. More precious than wealth Is the heritage of a good name. So God seeks to safeguard reputation by the com mand, “Thou shat not bear false wit ness against thy neighbor." We must eschew every semblance of dishonesty and perjury and “speak be ruth con cerning our neighbor in love." The Inner Application. The decalogue closes with a word which forces us to make it apply to our inmost thoughts and desires: "Thou shalt not covet.” Our Lord. Jesus Christ, made the same applica tion in his Sermon on the Mount when He made both murder and adultery matters of the mind and heart as well as of the act. He likewise summariz ed all these human relationships In saying, "Thou shalt love thy neigh bor as thyself.” Rural Churches j MIDDLEBURG M. E. CIRCUIT Rev. P. D. Woodall, pastor.

SEES SWING BACK TOWARD DRY CAUSE (Continued from Page One.) fied with their platform declaration. Undoubtedly the anti-prohibition sentiment has reached its crest. Dem ocrats who were here at the Tuesday night executive meeting say the anti-prohibition sentiment reached its limit on primary day when it swept Bob Reynolds into a nomina tion for the United States Senate. Or ganization of the dry people in all parties and aggressive declarations from them against all wet candidates must have helped. The Democratic State platforms have carried so .many unequivocal declarations for prohibi tion and have insisted so vehemently on the great good that dry legisla tion has done that ’an immediate re versal of from in the State was out of the question. The refusal of the Reynolds supporters to make a finish fight on Mrs. T. W. O'Berry, vice chairman, is more evidence. The ac quiescence of Mr. Reynolds and his associates in all the acts of the ma jority. If it was a majority, is yet further proof that prohibition is a very dangerous issue yet. The Republicans stand pat on it because they believe that the State is dry sentimentally. The Democracy’s high claims for prohibition will be quoted by the Republicans against the milder manifestoes of the current Democracy. Mr. Tillett hastens to put the hoss on the reporters and to reiterate his position on the dry question. The whole organization re-asserts its be lief in the dry cause.
