Ex-GOv. AYcOck DECLINED IT.
Distinguished Ex-Governor Says
he Cannot Accept Appointment
as Commissioner to Brazil.

Washington, D. C, April l7.Ex-
Governor Aycock has declined appoint
ment as one of che missioners from
the United states TO the PAN merican
Congress, which meets in Rio Janiero,
Brazil, in July.
The refusal of the former governor
resulted after kilograms from both the
North Caroline Senators, which were
sent to him at tsoldsborO, assuring him
that the appointment was non pa rtisan, ],
and that his selection was great hon-
or TO him personally. as we'll as to the
entire state. The reasons that prompt
ed Governor Aycock to refuse the hon
or were sltogether professional.
Senator simmons, who notified the
former governor by long distance phone
last night that be would be rendered
the appointments. called at the White
House this morning to express his ap-
probation to the president by reason
of the selection of one of North Caro-.
Iina's most honored citizens for the In.
portant mission abroad. The president.
again expressed bis high regard for
Governor Aycock as man, and as an
American. Shortly after leaving thei
White House the senator received this
telegram from the governor, apprisng
him of his determination To decline the
nominatiOn:
"Please assure the president of my
deep appreciation of his kindness. J.
am, however. so situated that cannot
accept.
In view of the fact that the commits
sion had already beea issued for Gov
ernor Aycock's appointment. Senators
Simmons aud Overman, after confer
ence at the capitol, forwarded q tele-
gram to Goldsboro, urging the former
governor to accept, assuring him that
the appointment was n-political. This
reply soon came:
Was aware position non-partisan;
deeply appreciate great honor. My
reasons for non-acceptance are profes-
sional and nom political. y
The president had already decided to
appoint Van Leer Polk, of Tennessee, a
member of the commission and there is
q probability that Hannis Taylor may
be chosen IN place of Governor Aycock. |
Senator Simmons remained at the /
White House and discussed with the |
president features of the rate bill. The |
president is said to be determined in !
his oppositiom to full court rev.ew. -

VERITE SANS PEUR.

Miss Guilla Morosini, daughter of
the italian banker, defiantly announc.
ed that she thought a quarter of a
million dollars year is none too much
for woman to spend on dresses and
wound up with the qnery: What
would the poor do if there were no rich
to work for?" has stirred up a de-
cided hornets nest, both in society
and social reform circles. Mrs. Rose
Pastor-Stokes, the young Jewish cigar
worker, who electrified society by mar
rying j. G. Phelps Stokes, year ago,
took it upon herself to answer in a
ST inging reply that is a literary gem
by saying:
please God. If the poor couldn't
work for the rich they would be aMe
to work for themselves. 1t is because
such women as Miss Morosini and wo.
men of her class never think what
things cost, and women of the working
class are compelled to think constant.
ly of what things cost, that the rude
awakening is bound 10 come to all
of use some day. Any adult who ren.
ders no service to the community has
no moral right to take any wealth
from the community. That a class OF
idlers should have so much wealth as
to ruin even their own souls in reck.
less and extravagant living and the
class of worl%'s should receive bare
ly enough to kosp body and soul to.
gether is the one crying shame of our
so-called civilization. Miss Morosini
is pauper. She is pauper and a
true pauper because she can, but is
unwilling to support herself, and is
thus on the shoulders of the communi
ty."
