the clearer becomes Mr.. Bakers conspicuous
superiority.
The last two Democratic candidates for
president came from New York and both
were badly beaten. Next years nomination be-
longs to the west, South or the midwest pro-
vided this section has a candidate to offer the
convention who fills every requirement in this
critical perod.
In Newton D. Baker the man and the occa-
sion meet. In him is to be found not only po-
litical and economical leadership but, in a
broad sense, that spiritual leadership which the
character Of the times require. His nomination
next year would throw a beacon light to every
liberal and progressive group in America.
One of the supreme obligations of the next
president of the United States is to tell the
Countries of Europe, with whatever diplomacy
the occasion requires: "You shall not precipi-
tate a general war. Civilization will not stand
it,"

Gloomy Scale Insect
Kills Maple Trees

Soft maple trees of North Caro-
lima are being killed off rapidly by
the spreading infestation of gloomy
scale.
MANY beautiful NAPLES all over
eastern North Carolina and in parts
of the piedmont are dying rapidly be-
cause of the ravages of gloomy SCALE"
says c. H. Brannon, extension entomo-
logist at State College. eff control
measures are not put into effect at
once, hundreds of these beautiful
trees will not survive another season.
If the trunks, branches or twigs Of
these trees are examined, the scale
may easily be observed with the naked
eye. 1t appears as a dark mass of small
bumps which may easily be scraped
off with the knife blade. Those who
are in doubt as to the identification
are invited to send specimens. The scale
is here to stay and is rapidly becom-
ing worse"
The best control method used by
Mr.. Brannon is to apply a good oil
spray to the tree during the winter OF
dormant period. The regular l;me-sll-
phur spray mixtures on the market
and most of them need only to be
diluted with water. to be ready for
use.
MI. Brannon advises owners of soft
naples to get a good oil spray at
once and apply while the trees are
still dormant, being careful to cover
the entire tree with the application.
The best oil is of no value unless care
fully applied. Do o spray when there
is danger of freezing during the next
few hours.

My dear Governor:
Unless I misjudge the sentiment of
the people of the state, they generally
approve your position with respect to
the exercise of executive clemency to-
ward prisoners, as outlined in your
recent public statement on the sub
ject. While indiscriminate exercise Of
the ~pardoning power of the COVER
nor of course would not be approved,
l believe that you can render a
service of inestimable value to society
in the iudicious and cautious use of
the parole, as an inspiration to prison
ers to conduct themselves properly
and to make good after thew have
been given their freedom, subject to
continuing good behavior.
The hope of parole is calculated to
encourage many to strive to gain
their freedom by exemplary conduct
Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1931-12-18

Once they have been freed under
parole, the ever-present realization
that they can be summarily returned
to prison for misconduct has a stabi-
lizing and restraining influence in
many cases to keep them law-abiding
Society is better served with a
truly reformed criminal free and
earning his own living than kept in
confinement at the expense of the
taxpayers, once he has served a reason
able proportion of his original term
in prison.
Such l understand to be your views,
and l believe they are sanctioned by
the majority of the thoughtful citi-
zens of the state.

1t has always been my experience that
the conduct of the fellow depends
upon the girl herself. l don't blame
the young lady for Directing to being
mauled; certainly, any decent girl
doesn't relish such attentions, but still
Ia little convincing on the part of the
girl generally brings results.
In my estimation, Salisbury fellows
are just as good or as bad as others.
As for the Salisbury girls-weil, one
finds different classes of girls every
where.
Perhaps if "Not a Salisburian"
would be a little more careful in
choosing her company she and we
Salisburians would be better off.

1t is the girls privilege to choose

From the letter; ''of course, if you
belong to that almost unheard of class
of girls who come from decent homes
you will not relish what l have been
through"
Judging from this you do not con-
slider your own home decent, then
surely you do not expect decent boys
to retire to a ''lewly place" for a pleas
ant evening. May l suggest that you
make your home a decent one, seek
gentlemen for your boy friends in pre-
ference to the rabble you have been
going with, look for the good and
not the evil then you can expect to
associate with decent boys.

NEWTON D. BAKER FOR PRESIDENT;
PARTY'S OPPORTUNITY

Events continue to indicate the probability
of a Democratic victory at the polls next year.
Democrats have already captured the House;
the Senate is controlled by a coalition. Recent
by-elections reflect a steady trend against the
administration.
1t is almost an unwritten law that when the
party in power loses control of Congress mid
way In the presidents term it loses the presi-
dency itself two years later. A situation ap-
proximating this has now developed. The ba-
rometer of Democratic hopes rises accordingly
as the year before the contest nears its end.
To win success, however, even under these
promising auspices the party must deserve sue
cess. To deserve success it must have an intel
ligent, constructive platform. 1t must have a
candidate capable Of appealing to the intelli-
gent liberalism of an electorate no longer sat
isfied with p~latltudinous nonsense.
America faces in immediate prospect several
years of painful economic adjustment. The
man who steps into the White House in March,
1888, if he be fit for the responsibility confer
red on him, must be a leader with understand
ing vision and experience. He must personify
the nations aspiration for a fairer distribution
of the blessings of life.
This period Immediately ahead will in many
respects be more trying than the period of the
war, whose unhappy child it is. 1t calls for po-
litical leadership as able as that fortunately
given us for the war.
The economic balance of the world is up
set. Nerves are tense and raw. America, lSo-
lated by geography, is enmeshed with the world
economically. AS long as Europe remains mil
itarist and suspicious, Americas own frontiers
are not immune.
The war of arms gives way to the war for
gold. With the United States and France hold
ing more than half the monetary gold and the
rest of the world struggling for the life blood
of trade, national ~jealousies are easily kindled.
Germany, disarmed at Versailles, plays with
Russia whose millions of soldiers, armed and
obedient, constitute a menace to western En-
rope. France, sensing the peril, lines up her al
lies as a bulwark against the east.
Americas potential leadership to help the
world out of economic turmoil will be effec-
tive only if America chooses her own leaders
carefully.
In one sense leading a nation in war is a sim
pie task. The scepter is emotionalism. People
are asked to respond to a single grand emo
ton, that of saving their country from the
dangers hat threaten it.
Nothing of this advantage awaits those who
are to lead us in the new battle. The nation
will not be united behind a single impulse. Toes
must be trod on, years-long relationships shak-
en- up, settled convictions as to social privilege
disturbed.
The president of 1.-THE United States is the
nations natural leader in policies affecting it's
welfare at home and abroad.
A candidate for president is handicapped,
perhaps hopelessly, unless his party gives him
a suitable platform on which to make his ap-
peal. For the character of the platform indi-

FIE, FIE YOUNG MAN!

To the Editor:
In answer to "Not a Salisburian's''
letter, l say that she must be a flat,
fiat tire.
What does she think a fellow goes
out with a girl for? To sit and count
stars? Most certainly a young man is
going to paw over his female COM
panion, and while l don't sanction
immortality l can see no harm to
"%petting."
Until a boy meets a girl he really
loves and intends to marry he is going
to use all the others for a good time.
Don't forget that you're only young
once!

The members of the fire depart

you look about your home and get

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore, March 31.-While his lips framed mes sage of love for his wife, Joseph Swindler, Chief of Police of Chilo- quin, died in the hospital after declaring the woman fired a bull let into his body.
 Mrs. SWindler is in a local hos pital with bullet wound in the head, inflicted her husband said, after she had shot him through the side.
 T love her as much as ever I did, and do not want her locked up or have anything unpleasant happen to her." he said shortly before he died.
 The Chief told the Police he reached his home at 5 o'clock yes- terday morning and his wife was waiting for him with a revolver in her hand.
 You're smart, aren't you" he quoted his wife saying, and then she lifted the revolver and dis charged it.
 The bullet tore through his left arm, entering under the heart and lodging near the spine.

WASHINGTON, D. O., March 3l.-Scnator James F. Watson said he is opposed to a tax increase or to Federal bond issue to meet the Treasury deficit. He made this statement after a breakfast conference with President Hoover.
 The Indiana Senator did not get the Presidents views on the financial situation but expressed his own to the President during the half-hour talk about politics and governmental problems.
 Senator Watson said it was agreed there is no need for an extra session of Congress to deal with unemployment and Farm Re- lief and that an armistice in poli- tical debate would permit of a more rapid economic rehabilitation.
 Senator watson said: Our thought was to let the people of the country rest from politics and go ahead and attend to the busi- ness to rehabilitate themselves, free from political clamor.

 Americans who may wonder why so many of their British cousins ride bicycles or motorcycles, or drive the tiny cars known in the United States as road bugs" will find the explanation in English gas prices and license fees.
 Gasoline of medium grade now costs with the present tax) 32 cents gallon in the larger cities and up to AS cents in outlying neighborhoods Adding another 8 cents would make motor frel range from 40 to 53 cents for British

 To offset the added gas tax, the government is proposing that the annual license fee of $486 per horsepower be reduced one-fourth.
 Just what the annual fee means to the motor car owner can bo learned by simple arithmetic Hum dreds of thousands of Americans of moderate means operate cars of 40 horsepower In England they would pay close to S200 a year for their license plates.
 One popular American automo- bile sold generally with stand- ard 24-horsepower motor, is offer ed to English customers with an optional engine of l4 horsepower at an additional cost of $25. The added cost is saved twice over in the reduced license for the first year.
