STATE FINANCES
RUN SHORT
Empty Treasury-No Money Until
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Borrow

The State of Virginia has run
short in its finances this year to the
extent of $2,050,000, and the sum
will be further increased before the
taxes due the State are paid in No
vember. The State is able to make
good its payments, however, by rea-
son of the fact that the law empow-
ers the governor to borrow such sums
as may be needed and at a very low
rate OF interest. Treasurer Purcell
says that there is practically no
money in the State repositories, and
in this he is supported by State Ac-
countant Smyth.
In many of the counties the yalu-
atoms put on property by the assess
ors will fall below that of five years
ago, it is reported, and in two of the
cities-Newport News and Peters
burg-the assessments are to show
a considerable reduction. In prac-
tically all other cities there will be
an enormous increase, but it is not
known if the increases which have
been made in the cities will compen-
safe for the failure of the assessors
in a vast majority of the counties to
keep the values to the figures of five
years ago.
That, the fight in the Legislature
this winter on the subject of ade-
quate assessment of real estate will
be warm, is well known. Observers
say. however, there appears to be lit
tie hope that anything will be accom-
more than to lay the founda-
tons for vigorous campaign when
the next Legislature is chosen, two
years hence.
With the shortage in finances. the
demand of institutions for additional
money will not be met unless there
8 an increase in the tax rate. which
nay be the last resort of the Legis-
ature-and this is not thought pro-
liable.

WOMEN'S CLUBS
ENDORSE PARK
The Nation Needs the Shenandoah
National Park
By MRS. JOHN D. SHERMAN

Bv MRS. JOHN d. SHERMAN
President, General Federation OF
Women's Clubs
The Southern Appalachian Nation
al Park committee has concluded its
study of a great scenic and recrea-
tional region. 1t has reported that,
among the opportunities discovered,
two areas stand out which possess
qualifications to repre-
sent the Appalachians in the picture
gallery of American scenic master
pieces which is officially called our
National Park System.
The greater of these from the
scenic and natural wilderness point
of view is an area in the Great Smoky
Mountains upon the boundary line
between North Carolina and Tennes-
see. But the committee recommends
for the first Southern Appalachian
National Park location in the Blue
Ridge of Virginia for the reasons that
it is more centrally located, will
serve better a far greater body of
people and can more quickly and
cheaply be brought into service. This
choice, observe, has not been deter
mined by comparative grandeur of
scenery but by the service it will
give to the people of the United
States.
The General Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs is a service organization.
The women of America constitute the
largest body for service in the world
and there are none more devoted.
appeal, not to General Federation
women only, but to the women of
America, to support whole-heartedly
and enthusiastically the choice of
Secretary Works committee. Our
National Parks System is a service
system or it is nothing
The General Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs has consistently support
ed and blended our national parks in
the East 1t welcomes the Shenan-
doah National Park. l hope that in
the near future we shall hav the op-
portunity to welcome the Great
Smoky Mountains National Park,
which is conceded to be a scenic area
of even Praatar mapnifipance and
beauty.

A SELFISH ATTITUDE

Since the world war, organizations
or orders, as they are sometimes
called, have been formed in the
United States, for the purpose of dis
eliminating against people of certain
races and religious sects. This seems
to be an unusually selfish attitude to
assume in a country which, -Four
score and seven years ago, was con
ceived in liberty and dedicated to the
proposition that all men are created
equal" Back in 1918 when Ger
many defied the rights of this great
Democracy and threatened the lib
rty of the world with obnoxious mon
archy and mighty armies, call was
sent out to the youth of this land to
come to defend. No questions were
asked about a mans religious belief
or from what race he came. White,
yellow, red and black men, were
drafted into the ranks of Uncle Sans
army and sent out to fight for their
country. 1t mattered not whether
they were Catholics. Protestants,
Jews, or the color of the skin. as long
as they were Americans, and cover
There" on the bloodstained hills of
France, Belgium and Italy, lie sleep
ing side by side, "In the robings of
glory" a conglomeration of all the
races and religious beliefs on earth;
defenders of American liberty. Sell
fish motives sometims lead folks to
forget, and before we begin to dis
criminate too harshly; let's think
deeper than the skin; let's think and
act as Americans should

ODE TO BALDHEADS

~. j. >.
My poor old head is getting bald,
1t makes my mem'ry burn and scald,
To think that locks l one time had,
Should leave my dome so blame
unclad
I've used all kinds of liquid dopes
And hair-restoring barber soaps,
To try and bring them back again
But all my work has been in vain.
Each friend | see upon the street
Tells me l have not been discreet;
That | should use just so-ard-so,
To make my hair roots sprout and
grow
They bouy me up with hopeful pep,
Whene'er they tell me of the rep
OF certain stuff, and what it means
To timid folks with hairless beans.
Sad alasi this magic potion
Does not put my fleece in notion
To curl itself as it once did
Beneath my high-priced velour lid.
I've tried all kinds Of healing drugs
That kill dread dandruff. lively bugs,
But all OF them could never rout
The germs that make my hair come
out
Oh, goodness me! I'd give COW
IL some smart gink would show me
how
Or teach me some new artful trick
To make my wool grow long and
thick.
