Today it is about as convenient for the
average citizen Of North Carolina to
go to the state capital and return home
as it was for the average citizen a gen.
Grafton ago to make the round trip to
his county seat. Therefore the only
good reason that ever existed for the
creation of so many counties has been
remo1 ed.
This is one measure of economy On

COM MENT-S
"A Bunch OF CoWs"

To the Editor:
Noting the apparent apathy with
which the American people accept the
new tax bill and the resignation with
which they tolerate the Eighteenth
Amendment, | have come to the con-
%clusion that we are a bunch of cows.
We fought the Revolutionary War
because we would not accept taxation
without representation; I hope we're
satisfied.
We won the Civil War and forced
the South to repudiate its European
war debts, and now we refuse to rec
ognize Russia because that country re-
pudiated the debts of a former Gov
eminent.
We elect Representatives to Con-
gress to make laws, and they dilly-dal-
ly and cut our threats.
We submit to bribery in public Of
flee, racketeers, criminal terror and
what not.
We drink denatured poison alcohol
to satisfy a natural thirst.
The Revolutionary heroes died for
our country; we, poor saps, live for it.
Only cows, pretty dumb ones at
that, could remain passive through all
that chaos. M. A. LEVIN.
Hoover! There He Stands-For Pic

He Hasn't Forgiven The "Lieuts"
To the Editor:
Why all the shouting about kick
ing 1000 Officers out of the army?
Why only 1000? If they kicked all
the second lieutenants out no one
would even miss them, except per-
haps the buck private and they would
be too overjoyed to mention it. For
seventeen years l have been trying to
find the answer to 'Why is a second

the conclusion that there is no reason
unless it is to make future members

THE CHALLENGE TO THE YOUTH

THE CHALLENGE TO THE YOUTH
OF TODAY
What has the youth of America to face to-
day? We mean the youth just starting out to
make a name for himself.
In answer we agree with the sentiment of
The New York Times that "Owen D. Young
has said in one sentence the challenging bac-
calaureate word to the young men graduating
from colleges and universities this year" Here
is what he said:
"If you can survive the initial shock you will
have before you the most ~favoring circum-
stances for service presented to young men of
any time"
"Kipling's four octaves of ifs are put into
this one plain prose ~subjunctive statement"
says The Times. Surviving the initial shock
involves, to be sure, many of the other ifs;
keeping ones head when all about are losing
theirs; trusting ones self when others doubt
one; keeping ones self from hating when be-
ing hated; waiting and yet not being tired by
waiting; starting afresh at ones beginnings
when those from whom one expected assist
ance in making a running start have lost all
their winnings; and holding on when there is
nothing left but will which says to one Hold
on But all these are implicit in the initial ov-
grooming of conditions due to false standards
of living which led to our undertaking to gain
by speculation more than the legitimate in
come from honest jobs.
'The discipline which is essential in meeting
these conditions and which has come too late
for my generation,' as Mr.. Young said, will not
only make the earth and everything that's in
it the possession of those who are entering it
these commencement days but incidentally
will make master men of those who survive.
difficulties are the challenge of this new
day in which youth will build out of the wreck
the thing it contemplates-setting for itself an
even higher standard of life than ever the earth
has known. We would suggest that every uni
versity, college and high school graduate carry
with him into the struggle of active life a copy
Tor a clear memory Of this stirring address
of one who has splendidly illustrated in his own
life the terms of the testing formula which he
has commended to youth: idealism in purpose,
business metods in execution and sportsman
ship in spirit"

To the Taxpayers of North Carolina:

To the Taxpayers Of North Carolina:
Apparently increasing thought is be-
ing given to the proposal to reduce the
number of counties in the state, by
consolidation of two or more into one,
as a potential means of reducing the
expenses of government. One of the
principal speakers before the annual
convention of the North Carolina
Merchants association recently advo-
Gated reduction from the present 100
to 10, eliminating 90 of the present
counties. If the number of counties
were cut down by four fifths, through
consolidation, certainly it would e.
feet a very large reduction in the cost
of county government, without nee
essarily impairing the public service
being rendered by the present num-
Der.
The ideal plan would be to CONSOLE
date groups of three tt five counties
into one, making the central county
seat of the group the seat of the en-
larged county government. This would
make the county seat central and con-
v%enient to all the people of the larger
county.
The only good reason for so many
was to place a county seat in conven-
