GERMAN PEOPLE FACE
WANT IN UPHEAVAL
Masses Suffer AS Political Pot
Seethes in Capital-Social-
isis and Extremists Agitate

BERLIN, Nov. 28.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press0 While politicians
bubble and delay, the German
masses starve or liv con insufficient
rations. Unemployment grows at
a rapid rate and millions Of Ger
mans face water of want and
plivation
By degrees old people, many of
them middle class, have been forced
to 60 upon the street for aims.
But the rioters are not of this
class for the most part 1t is the
Youngsters, many of them Com
munists, and many of them not
riots. However, the grounds for
violent demonstrations against Of
llcialdom are so valid that the ex-
tremists have the sympathy, if not
the actual support, of men and wo-
men of nearly all classes.
Charges that the demon STATIONS
have had much encouragement
from Moscow have not dcne much
to soften the bitterness of the Ger
man public toward the central gov
eminent. The fact remains that
Germany had an excellent crop this
year. There are more than enough
potatoes for the German public
Germcny had a bumper crop of
gain. But the currency crash and
the letdown of transportation and
general Reorganization in the gov
eminent have made it impossible
10 distribute the food and enable
she public to buy it.
The public is-gradually beginning
80 realize how badly it was led
when the passive resistance in the
Ruhr was instituted While it was
predicted by many politicians that
Germans, who have organized the
abandonment of the passive resist
nee would cause much criticism,
the Abandonment seems rather to
have caused relief and the pub
lie Is indignant now that it was
ever induced to believe such a step
would effect a change in-the French
attitude
Socialists and non-socialists alike
are dissatisfied with their leaders.
larty members of the right, left
and center are all disgruntled.
Passive resistance advocates in
Berlin and other cities who were
Ioudest in the demands for a con-
tinuation of the sacrifices which
Germans in the Ruhr were making
have altered their opinion material
~ since the general depression
caused by the passive resistance has
involved all Germany in distress.

ridicule many of the educational dog
mas and called upon all teachers to
see what they are worth to the COM
munity where they are working. and
if they don't measure up, to get out OF
the way for a real teacher.
When you have taught q boy to
read and write few intelligent SEN
tences, to spell and to count enough to
get through with the ordinary process
es OF life and have planted in him the
belief that he can do anything he sets
his heart on-then you have educated
him. and until then you have wasted
your time and his time and every
body's money she told the teachers
and they shouted for her.
Education is the biggest business in
the State, with an investment of so
million in capital and an operating ac-
| count of thirty million a year and
nearly a million people taking part,
either as raw material or as Operative
es, Miss Kelley said. 1t is the biggest
business and there is less known
about it, she repeated Many people
brag about it who know nothing about
it.
The University and the colleges are
fine, but out in the back country,

STATE GETS MOST
ROADS FOR MONEY
FRANK PAGE TALKS OF RESULTS
OF HIGHWAY PROGRAM AT
BAYBoRo.
Big CELEBRATION STAGED
New Bern and Bayboro Asphalt
Road.

Bayboro.-North Carolina gets more
roads for the money it spends than
any other State of the Union does or
ever has, Frank Page, State Highway
Commissioner, told hord of Pamli-
coans, who came from every quarter
through the hardest rain the county
has witnessed in months to take part
in the celebration staged in honor OF
the completion of the New Bern Bay
boro asphalt road an dto hear Mr.
Page tell of the progress made on
Carolinas' great highway project.
Governor Cameron Morrison also
was slated to make speech but the
death of T. C. Leak in Rockingham
county compelled him to cancel the
engagement at the last moment ] E.
Cameron, commissioner for this dis
trict, also spoke.
Mr.. Page reviewed the work OF the
Highway Commission since its incep-
tion, pointing out that the State had
only 210 miles of improved roads
when the commission was created.
Within four years the total Of fin
ished roads has passed the three thou
sand mile mark and thousands of other
miles are under construction. The
State is spending tremendous sum
of money, he said, but the saving to
it's people in gasoline and wear and
tear on automobiles alone are millions
of dollars each year. Mr.. Page spoke,
too of the justice of the system Of
taxation through which the State ac-
Quires funds for the retirment of the
road debt. Automobile owners pay
it. Those who travel little pay little,
those who travel much pay much.
Visitors from other states who use
these roads pay too through the gaso
line tax Folks who own no cars pay
no road tax.
For the great service being given
the people of North Carolina by the
Highway Commission Mr., Page wanted
no more of the credit than due any
member Of the organization. The nine
directors and the great skilled engi
neers, skilled and unsklled workmen
from the organization to which all
credit is due he said. North Carolina
is blessed by their devotion to duty
They have done the work.
