THE
Tower

To the Holders Of BwiAaing
and Loan Securities:
The sound condition of the build
ing and loan association in Salisbury
shown in the last annual reports, is
more than gratifying.
Land has, and always will be, the
backbone of American prosperity. To
those who have had foresight enough
t invest in this type Of security |
congratulate you on your ability to
choose wisely.
To those who have money to in
vest, l urge the choice of stock in a
good sound building and loan associ-
alton, as compared to the various bonds
and other non-taxable securities hat
only an expert can d~ifferentiate the
good from the bad. Money invested in
land today is certain to reap a profit
for the investor in the good times that
lie ahead.
GOVERNOR MATTHEW Rowan,
Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1932-05-20

We hope that out of the death of a little
child may spring a flaming spirit which will
fire the American people, not to vengeance
but to relentless determination to set our house
in order, to give known criminals no quarter,
to bring before the bar of justice every one
who has connived with criminals to evade and
escape the law, and SO to put our country back
izto the list of civilized nations.
We call upon our public authorities, from
the President of the United States to the most
remote town constable, to make the suppress
sion of crime and lawlessness the chief aim of
their office from now on, and we promise
them that, in taking the most drastic means
at their command to clean the c%esspools of
crime, they will have the hearty and unhesi-
tating support of every good citizen. And, at
the same time, we warn them that unless
speedy evidence is given that the long arm of
the law has not yet in America lost its power,
those responsible for its execution, who fail
in their duty, will face an aroused popular in
dignation which will put a speedy and effec-
tive end to their careers.
We heartily approve and endorse the decla-
ration by the President of the United States
that this crime must be kept "a live and new
er-to-be-forgotten case, never to be relaxed
until those criminals are implacably brought
to justice" But it must not end there.
1t will not suffice merely to find and to
punish the murders of little Charlie Lindbergh.
The times, and the temper of the American
people, demand that the pursuit of criminals
and the extirpation of crime, of defiant GRIM
inals and of organized crime, shall never be
relaxed until none shall dare to affront the
majesty of the law and to drag the fair name
of America into the dust.
There should be no plea for mercy in this
case. "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one
of the least of these my children ye have done
it unto Me" That is the stern denunciation of
the Lindbergh murderers which has come
down to us through the ages. And if, as a re-
suit of the indignant public feeling which this
crime has aroused, there should be a restora-
ton of our country to its historic state of law
and order, then we may again quote from the
same inspired and sacred source:
'And a little child shall lead them"

Constructive Suggestion On Hon. To
Cure The Depression.
To the Editor:
Following along the lines of sug-
gestion of the greatest minds and
noblest characters in America as to
how to relieve the depression and
bring back prosperity, l have the fol-
lowing solution to offer:
First-Fight back to prosperity
with the same leaders who dragged
us into depression; get right listening
to the same brilliant minds who put
us in wrong; put America on its feet
by giving our confidence to those who
sold it out; get back Americas char
acter and honor with those who took
it away.
Second-Create more tax-exempt
securities by making all bonds in de-
nominations of $4,000 or more tax
exempt; make all individuals worth
$1,000 900 or more exempt from all
taxes; put a high sales tax on all ne
c~esslties and make all luxuries ex-
empt; make the support and alimony
laws more rigid so the ladies will have
o money to spend foolishlv.
Third-Create more reconstruction
finance corporations, so all bankers
mistakes may be taken over with the
peoples money and national scandal
prevented by covering up the fact
that the big corporations were looted
OF their assets to pay big dividends
while the insiders unloaded and sold
short and were then bankrupted so
they could buy in cheap.
Fourth-Crate more Government
commissions to inveAtigate what is
wrong with every industry, so we will
have them all wrong, and create more
boards of experts to remedy the wrong
SO they will all be equally wrecked
and on a basis Of impartial insolvency.
Fifth-Give the politicians full rein
to increase the cost of Government
until it balances the national income.
when we will be perfectly governed,
with everybody On the Government:

The average increase for all departments,
Senator Dill said, for the last five years was
s. per cent, or a total increase of $751;
900, 900.
"A Republican Congress passed all Of these
appropriation bills; a Republican President
signed them, and Republican cabinet men,
bers spent the money" he declared.
After calling attention to the deficits Of
5000, 000, 900 last year and $4,000, 100000
this year, with the prospect Of $4,000, 600, 900
next year unless expenditures are cut and new
taxes provided, he pointed out that right nov
expenditures are $1,000, 900 day more than
the revenues.
Senator Dill closed by saying:
s'When we have a President and a Congress
who will make money plentiful, the people
will have confidence again in the business of
the country. When we tear down tariff walls
and establish a basis Of exchange so that our
money is on a basis of value equal to the mon
ey of other nations, we shall have world trade
again. Until these changes can be brought
about, the best thing to do is to reduce the
government expenditures and avoid new tax
es.'

Hon. O. Max Gardner,
Governor of North Carolina.

My dear Governors:
All thoughtful people doubtless n
dorse your timely statement recently
in which you urged that in North
Carolina unemployed labor and I'M
cultivated lands be transmitted into
food for next winter" All recognize
the truth of your statement that
there is abundant idle land" and
abundant idle labor" and it is doubt
less true, as you believe, that 'land
owners will, in most instances, be
glad to contribute uncultivated land,
free of rent, to those who would grow
food crops this summer"
If your suggestion should be gener-
ally adopted and two to five acres Of
otherwise idle land should be proper
ly cultivated by each family depend
emit upon an otherwise unemployed
man, it would go a long way toward
solving the problem of restitution
next winter, particularly if all foods
possible were canned or otherwise pre-
served during the hummer for winter
use.
However, a destitute family placed
on a plot Of ground, with no money,
no food, no livestock, no fertilizer,
no seeds and no tools with which to
cultivate the soil, could not produce a
crop, even if the land were contribut-
ed as a gift. Free land is only a part
of the solution of the problem. Your
suggestion is good and sound, as far as
it goes, but the proposed program, to
prove successful, should include some
sort of cooperative plan by which the
unemployed families placed on the idle
land would receive some aid in OBJ
tanning at least some of the essentials
Of food production besides the ground
and labor. Perhaps you have in mind
a plan by which something more than
bare land would be provided for those
ready and willing to supply the labor
to make your program successful.

To ''Ex-Patient":

10 'Ex-Patlent":
There are several reasons why l can
not publish your letter, including the
fact that in my opinion it is libelous
and would probably involve The
Waterman in a heavy law suit. One
all-sufficient reason, however, is that
it does not bear your signature and
l do not know who wrote it. Under
no circumstances could l consider
publishing such letter without know
ing the identity of the author. This
rule applies to all. T do not always
publish the name of the writer with
all letters sent me for publication, but
at least l must know the name of the
author.

In a recent radio address on the subject of

Dill, of Washington state, declared at the out
set that "the cause of high taxes is big govern

In the last five years, he said, the incomes
of the people decreased from se%venty-five bill

THE LINDBERGH TRAGEDY

The most shocking tragedy in American
history since the assassination of President Nc
Kinley, thirty-one years ago, is the ruthless
murder of the Lindbergh baby, by the fiends
who stole the infant from it's crib and, ap-
parently, killed the little boy and hid his body
in the woods when they found themselves
pursued.
We can imagine no crime worse than this.
Nothing could be more shocking, nothing
could'so move the hearts of the whole world
to pity for the little one whose life had hard
ly begun, to fearful sympathy with his below
ed young parents and to stern and righteous
anger at the perpetrators of this foul deed.
To the gallant 'Lone Eagle and his no less
heroic young wife, Anne, we can only say that
we know that we speak for every one Of our
readers in trying inadequately to express our
heartfelt sympathy. We know that they will
bear up bravely, for both of them have prov
ed that they are of the stuff of which heroes
are made. 1t is the very irony of fate that to
thom, who merited nothing but happiness,
should have occurred a tragedy so awful that
for the rest of their lives they must live in its
shadow. There is, perhaps, a small measure of
consolation in the news that the little cradle
will not long be empty, but the memory Of
their murdered firstborn will tug forever at
their heartstrings.
But there is an aspect to this crime which
touches not the Lindbergh family alone, but
every one of us in these United States of Am
erica. This murder of a child is the browning
climax of the wave of lawlessness, of unpun-
.1-J ~ -..11... .. --1..1 L.. 1-.n
sweeping over our country in a swelling flood
since the war. 1t has aroused public indigna-
ton to a pitch to which it has never been be-
fore aroused, and we hope that this great out
pouring of public indignation may find con-
crete expression in a stern determination to
put an end once and for all to wholesale law
lessness and immunity for criminals.
It's a simple statement Of fact that the re-
sponsibility for the kidnapping and murder of
the Lindbergh baby lies at the door of every
citizen who has permitted, without protest,
the criminal element to defy the law, to cor
rupt public officials charged with the enforce
ment of law, and to mock at the law-abiding.
1t lies at the door of every lawyer who has
connived to obtain the a%cquittal Of a known
criminal. 1t lies at the door of every judge
who has given convicted offenders light sem
fences or has suspended sentence altogether. 1t
lies at the door of every sheriff, every con-
stable, every police officer who has fallen
short in his duty Of relentless pursuit of Grim
inals and suppression of crime.
No more terrific indictment of an entire
nation can be drawn than our Indictment by
the rest of the civilized world, which today
looks upon the United States of America as
the paradise Of the criminal and upon our peo-
pie as the most cowardly and supine race, in
the face of outrageous l~awlessness, to be found
upon the face of the globe.
