that is why distant tuning was

RANKIN HERE WITH A
MESSAGE FROM DUKE.
Medical Director of the Duke Endowment to
Talk Straight To An Important
Group Here Tonight

DR.. Watson S. Rankin, medi-.
cal director of the Duke En-
dowment will speak in Eliz-
abeth City this evening at an
important group meeting of
Elizabeth City Ministerial
Association, the First District
Medical Society and Rotarians
and Kiwanians of Elizabeth
CITY. Hertford and Edenton.
The occasion will he dinner at
Christ Church Parish House and DIR.
Rankin comes upon the invitation
of the Ministerial group. DIR.
Rankin's coming to address such
group as will gather to hear him
this evening is of some significance.
DR.. Rankin is medical director
Of the Duke Endowment. Upon his
recommendation Duke moneys are
appropriated fer public hOspitaliza-
ton in North and South Carolina.
The late J. Il. Duke left an endow-
ment of $40,O00.OO0 to he devoted
% to the upbnilding Of Duke Uni
versity. (2) to the aid of rural
churches and superannuated minist-
ers in the two CarOlinas and (3) to
the endowment Of hospitals and
medical centers to the end that the
CarOlinas should ultimately provide
not only adequate disqualification,
but the best possible disqualification
for all Of their citizens.
The Northeastern North Carolina
counties are especially backward in
the matter Of hospitals. The only
hospital in the ten counties In the
Albemarle region of which Elizabeth
City is the metropolis is the private
ly owned and privately conducted
Elizabeth City Hospital at Eliz-
abeth City.
The Elizabeth City Hospital has
never been a success. Under 81.
vate management, under Catholic
Sister management and under COM
munity management 1t has repeated
ly failed to pay. 1t Is not paying at
the ipresent time under a second
attempt at private ownership man
agement.
The purpose of the Duke Endow-
ment is to help put hospitals on
their feet, keep them OH their feet
and direct them to the end that
they render uniform efficienC hos
pitalization to the communities or
regions which they serve. But the
Duke endowment does not apprOpri-
ate money and give its exper. guild
ance to privately owned hospitals
1t Is; known that DR.. Rankin is
deeply concerned over the deplorable
situation in this section Of the
State where considerable and
worthy group of the population has
access only to one hospital and that
a privately conducted hospital. 1t
is a guess only that DR.. Rankin will
tell the important group which
gathers to hear him at Elizabeth
City tonight that the Albemarle
counties should have their own hos
pital and district medical center and
pledge them certain support from
the Duke Endowment If they will
meet its terms.

'SAPIRO GRILLED
BY REED ON FEES
PAID BY FARMERS
Court CausticaIly Criticizes
Counsel and Witness,
For Actions

DETROIT, April (P.-Side lights
held the interest today in Aaron Sa-
piro's $1,O00,0O0 libel suit against
Henry Ford as the eighth day of cross
examination labored through the
routine of ascertaining from Sapiro the
names of farmers operatives with
which he had been affiliated and the
fees he received.
There was criticism of a republican
democrat ranks when Senator Reed,
Missouri, chief of the Ford counsel,
assailed Frank O., Lowden, former gov
ernor of Illinois, as a Capitalist and
as "the son-in-law of Pullman, of the
Pullman Car company; two stern re-
Dukes from the court, ;and a renewed
assertion by Senator Reed that Sapiro
accepted employment by two bodies
and played them against each other for
his personal gain.
For the second time since the trial
started, sapiro testified specifically
that the alleged libelous articles
printed in FOrd's Dearborn Independent
caused him to lose a job and the in.
come it had netted him. by pointing
out the fact he is a Jew and seeking to
connect him with an international
Jewish conspiracy to control agricul-
tural products.
At adjournment the opposing attor-
neys had instructions from Federal
Judge Fred NJ. Raymond to select rep
resentatiVe each to go over journals,
ledgers and other volumes of the book
keepers craft and agree upon set of
figures that could be submitted as evil
dence rather than have Senator Reed
spend further days in an effort to draw
them from Sapiro.
LoWden's name came into the case
when Senator Reed, in asking for a
list of national organizations Sapiro
had represented, mentioned the Ma
tional Wheat Growers Advisory COM
mittee, formed at Chicago in Septem-
Der, 1928, at meeting called by Judge
r. w. Bingham, of Louisville, Ky.
Judge Raymond stopped a wrangle
between Reed and SapirO with the most
emphatic ruling he has made since the
counsel cannot cease this sort of ques-
tion and answer the court will have tC
intervene The court has submitted tc
all that it can submit to along thai
line. Conversation is not to be in.
