Three and one half million
children in Central and Eastern
Europe are hoping, not for
Santa Claus, but for food to stay
the pangs of hunger. Experts
of the American Relief Commits
sion estimate that if America
fails them more than a million
of these children will succumb
this winter to the CHASTITY spectre
of want. If you have not already
helped, you are urged to do so
today to the full extent of your
ability. Ten dollars will save
the life of a child until spring
and the harvest time. Can you
not save the life of one of these
little ones?
Donations may be made to
this Office or direct to Mr.. Henry
A. Page. Chairman, Aberdeen,
N. c., and such is the condition
to-day over there that he gives
twice who gives quickly.

IS une, opposition to be based TIL
time? It is. absolutely imbecil'
! to claim that. the. state canno
afford the expenditure. If we car
spend 500, 900, 600 every year fol
gasoline and garage bills, then t
claim that we cannot afford 3d.
900, 900 year for six years only
for education is rather toe
absurd.
! Nor is there justification on the
usual grounds of politics. The
fiscal policy of the last legislature,
viewed as a whole, was distinctly
progressive. The opposition party
not only admitted that it was
progressive, but concentrated its
attack on that policy, alleging
that it was too progressive. This
made the issue clear-cut- the
people were asked, on the one
hand to support a forward-looki
financial program, and on the
other to render verdict that the
majority had been ever-zealous.
The result was the most tremen-
dously emphatic vote Of conf
dence that the Democratic party
has ever received in this state.
To add to the emphasis, this vote
was received in the midst of a
Republican landslide.
How on earth would it have
been possible for the people of
North Carolina to indicate more
clearly that they believe in going
ahead? When the most con-
spicuously progressive legislature
in years has its record endorsed
by the biggest majority ever
known, how can anyone miscon-
strue the sentiment of the state. ?
Since retrugressive sentiment
cannot claim that the state is
financially disabled, nor that it
is opposed to progress, we are
curious to know what will be the
excuse it will offer for its fight.
Business depression, perhaps.
1t is very convenient bugaboo,
this business depression. 1t is
just formidable enough to furnish
us with an excuse for not doing
anything we don't want to do,
and not substantial enough to
prevent US from doing anything
we really want to do. 1t is far
and away the handiest little
business depression we have ever
had around the house.
But let US assume, for purposes
of argument, that the business
depression is quite as bad as the
of progress are likely |
to claim. Let US do more-let
US assume that it is worse than
has ever claimed. Let
US go even one step further let
Us suppose that it is the worst
panic that ever struck the coun-
try, greatly worse than the
Roosevelt panic, worse than the
Cleveland panic, worse than the
panic Of '73. Let US suppose
that it is a worse panic than the
ever will see. After
1873 business conditions might
nave been described as rotten for
about two years, we believe.
Let us imagine that we are going
% have a panic twice that bad
md then add half as much
again for good measure-let US
suppose that business will be
lad for the next FIVE years
what then? Is North Carolina
justified in cutting down her
educational program on that
Iccount?

Far from it. In broadening
md strengthening the founda-
ions of her educational system
North Carolina is preparing, not
or the next five years, but for
he next 20, or 30, or 40 years
or as long as the pre-
emit generation of young
hen and women shall live. ]
