The Personnel

In tho years 1918 TO 1921 this vicious
practice OF subordinating the sea end
OF the navy to the shore end, Of plac-
ing fighting efficiency and resdiness
for var last and political considerations
first, Was emphasized as mover before
IN the history of our navy. The same
general rule was applied TO the per-
sonnel; the combatant element, the
line Of the navy, that must command,
control and direct the feet in war,
was largely stripped Of its authority
and Influence, and the control OF the
navy virtually passed to the non-com-
batant or staff corps. that do not and
cannot command, direct OF be in any
manner employed or be held IN any
measure responsible for the Issue of
war or for victory or defeat IN battle.
Hero again the fundamental principle
Of military organization and efficiency
Is violated by exalting those parts Of
the personnel Of the navy that contrib
ute least 60 success In way, ahoat or
ashore, while dcpreciating, subordinat-
ing or failing to sustain the line Of The
navy that always Nsg and always .arst

This late President Roosevelt once
asked The written the following quca-

'"Th. navy is governed zoo much from
the beach, and not enough from ths

with and supported Lieutenant, now
Admiral, Sims in establishing the pri,l-

4 False Alarm for the Woman Voter
Shows i'm July

To the Editor of The Journal
Certain advocates of the candidacy
of Squire C. j. Braswel for the leg
stature have been talking and pub
fishing contentious which inferential-
ly hold that unless Squire Braswell is
nominated for the legislature the
women will be subject to poll tax ana
jury service.
Persons making this contention are
either woefully ignorant of the law or
else, knowing the law, are seeking to
mislead the voters Especially the wo-
menl on the subject. The tactics seem
to consist in either event in setting
up straw men to knock them down
and entice the vote for the hero who
kills the dummies.
The constitution of North Carolina
Article V Section | provides for poll
tax and says the Legislature may levy
capitation tax on all male inhabi-
tants Of the State between the ages
of twenty-one and fifty years" 1t
would take an amendment to the Con-
stitution of North Carolina by a ma
jority of the popular vote to make
women liable for poll tax. No legis-
lature in North Carolina, in the alb
sence of such an amendment could
subject women to payment of poll tax,
and there will never be legislature
elected which would do it if it could.
Provisions for jury service are
contained in the Consolidated
Statutes Secs 2312 ct seq, qualificG-
tions being stated in Section 2312
This sect on was amended in the year
1899, and under it the women stand
as much show of being made to serve
on juries as they did in the good year
1899.
Of course Squire Draswell is oppos-
ed to women voting and serving on
juries He is absolutely safe in his op-
position, and his friends are making
safe promises for h,m on the subject.
| am opposed to SHOWS and sleets in
the month of July, which are more
probable than the menace the Bras
wellites see for the women, but /
wouldn't stultify myself by running
for the legislature on ticket in
which my friends stated, "Do you
want snow in July? If you don't,
you better vote for Bill, he's opposed
to them" BILL.

Found, An Awful BOoger...

And 'Marshville Voter" has discov-
cred that unless Squire Braswell is
elected to the Legislature the ladies
will have to pay poll-tax and sit on
juries!!!
If he will look at the Constitution
of the State he will find that poll tax
can be imposed only on males and if
he will use his noggin he will see that
before the ladies can serve on juries
the Legislature will have to pass an
act authorizing and requiring them.
There couldn't be a change made with
out the Squire discovering it, there
fore vote for him. When platforms
consist of platitudes and propaganda
of ghost stories and scares, somebody
is trying to hypnotic the electorate.
Do you want your wife to cuss and
chaw and your daughter to spit and
swear? If you don't, you'd better vote
for Braswell for the Legislature, he
is opposed to these things.

BRIEF HUNTING SOLUTION
TO HER SCHOOL PROBLEM
Large Number of Students Ready for
High School and No Provisions
Yet Made is Situation

Brief, May 29.-The patrons of
Brief school met with Prof. Funder-
burk Saturday night to discuss better
school facilities. The object in view
was increased advantages, provision
for those pupils who are now ready
for high school. 1t is estimated that
ut least 10 students from Brief need
the advantages Of high school instruc-
ton at present while 10 or II at Je-
rome school stand in the same need;
therefore the necessity for action on
the part of the people of these schools
is very urgent. While it is evident that
some few may be able to send their
children off to a good high school and
pay the great expense incurred, 1t is
plain enough that too great a number
cannot. The question then arises as
to what and who What is it that will
debar those who so greatly need a
chance of higher education, and
who will lend themselves to such a
movement? That will prove so detri-
mental to the life of our community
as will the failure to aid in getting a
way for these children to 90 on with
their education? When you are told
that it is the green-eyed monster,
selflshness, sure you will not want to
be one of those who stand in the way.
In Prof. Funderburk's truck plan
is found one of the greatest oppor-
tunities ever offered to the people of
this section. 1t is simply this: The
expenditure of S65000 for a truck to
carry the high school boys and girls
of these schools to Unionville high
school which will require only 10 of
the 30 cents special tax. However,
this seems to be the most practical
and economical solution of the prob
lem yet offered. To send all the pu-
pills of this class to a good high school
and pay expenses like one of our pa
irons paid last year would mean an
outlay of S6750.00; to get another
teacher at Brief would necessitate an
expenditure of around Sl,S00.00. As
Prof. Funderburk said, the boys and
girls of this section deserve just as
good educational advantages as those
of any other community or even any
town or city. Then why not begin to
think more earnestly and deeply over
the matter? 20. L. Biggers, Milton A.
