Life Of Swedish Queen
Full of Contradictions

The life of Queen Christina OF
Sweden (1G29-S9) is full Of pictorial
splendor. Queen from the age Of
ak, taking eagerly to her boyish
upbringing. lover of learning, and
fearless, as became the daughter of
GuStavus Adolphus, she had many
of the qualities Of the ideal ruler.
Yet, once she had been magnificently
crowned, she chose to reign only for
a few years, during which she pro-
vided her country with succession,
not Of heirs, but of galranic shocks
From the first, we see her staid
ministers bewildered by the contra.
dictions in her nature-her brilliant
statecraft, alternating with violent
enthusiasms for philosophers, for
French Guack doctor or handsome
Spanish envoy. She loved display,
fine craftsmanship and physical
beauty: set herself she dressed
carelessly, often in male attire, with
not too nice regard for personal
cleanliness, and with a disconcert-
ing indifference TO food and sleep.
She could be truly royal, yet she
could make a equity and important
savant dance in public for her
amusement What wonder that most
Of her councillors breathed a sigh
of relief ut her NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

SELFISH EDWARDS

Selfish and cowardly citizens OF the Uni
ted States are traitors, at this time. They
are traitors to their country, to their fellow
citizens and to their own material interests.
An illustration: The present emergency
was in large measure forced on the coun-
try by the selfishness and cowardice of GER
tain wealthy people of the country, ma
iority of whom, no doubt, are residents OF
the great cities. These people persisted IN
withdrawing their money from the banks !;
they demanded and received gold, which
they proceeded to hoard or ship out OF the
country 1t is said that considerably more
than a hundred million dollars in gold was
sent out of the country by these people in
the last week before President Roosevelt
declared the bank holiday.
This action of the citizens referred to-,
together with the actions of millions
throughout the country, which action IN
most cases was prompted by fear, COM
PEELED the President to declare the banking
holiday and brought on the country the
present emergency.
However, let it be remembered that peo-
pie of all classes and not the wealthy alone
are responsible. The responsibility does
not rest on all the people of the country,
but on some of them, and those responsible
are not confined to any one class; but many
of the wealthy people of our country, So
called financial and business leaders, pre-
sented contemplate spectacle as they
ran for cover with their gold to foreign
countries. In this crisis many of the cour-
try's rich people proved to be white-livered
towards, The charge is established by
their panicky and desperate efforts to get
their gold out of the banks and out Of the
country.

TIME TO FIGHT

1t is now time for those who do not want the
18th amendment stricken from the constitution to
start to fight and fight hard. A delay of weeks,
or even days, may see the pendulum of popular
opinion swing in unaccustomed arcs.
The drys must recognize that today they have 20
oppose the Synthetic vets" as we'll as the 'real
vets" With normal conditions the 18th amendment
would be as safe as the rock of Gibraltar is secure,
but these are not normal conditions. Much of the
population is in a daze, doubling where they have
no real reason to doubt because of the uncertain
ties they face.
Some there are who may go against their better
judgment in the hope that repeal of the 18th
amendment will bring about the return of pros
perity, blandly overlooking the fact that money
spent for liquor will be taken out of the regular
channels of trade. The vets have been taking full
advantage of the economic situation to spread such
ideas and unless the drys swing into action those
same ideas viii influence many votes when the
showdown comes.
1t is encouraging to note that the Baptist mill
listers of the Saluda association are not going to
sit by while such important matter nears dec-
sion They have adopted resolution that expresses
the situation we'll and the action they urge should
be launched without delay. No time has been SET
for countrywide dry meeting but it should be
held soon. These are times when action comes
| quickly and preparedness is therefore more and
more essential. 1t would be a sad ending to IL
| years of maintaining the prohibition laws to see
them go down because only small percentage of
/ their supporters rallied to defend them.-Ander-

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
SENATORIAL DIGNITY

The spectacle of a United States senator stop
ping to taunt defeated rival and indulge in low
bred and cheap faunts has disguised North Carolina
in the last week Senator Reynolds lost good
many friends and embarrassed a number of others
by his letter to Gosh" Grist The letter was be-
bneath the dignity of his high office 1t was cheap,
crude and bitter.
No doubt "Our Bob" is feeling quite cocky. He
was elected by huge majority and ne is IN office
for period of six years He went into office with
the support of a great many North Carolinians, but
he can't hold the support of his constituents by
indulging in childish fits of temper and faunts. The
people of North Carolina are fair minded and the
antagonism Reynolds has aroused by his letter to
Grist and his hgh-headed defense of his appointing
two Asheville men to the two best offices in his
district will be slow to subsde. North Carolina will
never stand for "Kingfsh' and the senatorial
tradition in North Carolina is surrounded by too
much dignity for Huey Long to draw much sup
port.
Bob Reynolds occupies position that has been
held by men of brains, dignity, character and ma
ture wisdom. He sits in the place of statesmen,
and while Josh Grist is not particularly admired
in the state it is not hard to establish proof of
the fact that he does bear the scars of honorable
warfare, received while Mr.. Reynolds was running
picture show. And, it is hard to imagine zeb|
Vance, Matt Ransome, F. NJ. Simmons, Lee S. Over
man or Cameron Morrison stopping to such tactics

Mr.. Reynolds should consider the dignity Of the
office with which the people of great state have
honored him. He isn't operating pool room or

CITIZENS MUST BACK ROOSEVELT
(By BRUCE CATION

The most important duty facing the
American people today is that they give
complete and unqualified support to Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Mr.. Roosevelt began his administration

. titled in doing so. Today's emergency is as
critical as any war could be.
= But if we are to meet this emergency as
war, and if our president is to exercise
broad wartime powers in attacking it.,
there is responsibility on us as citizens
3 to form a united column in support of the
president, ..
In time of war there is no room for par
steamship, no room for protracted debate,
no room for petty criticism. That is equally
true of the present emergency. What the
president does he must do quickly and de-
'cisively. We, the ordinary citizens of the
'land,~ must help him. - f'.#.
The most encouraging feature of the

come to an end. We are to be led again

a fairly rapid pace. We have got to be

thusiasm and devotion we can muster.
There is no other possible way in which
we can get past our troubles. Even mis-

WORKMAN ACT
HEARING near
VIII Be Definitely Set in a
Few Days, Says Sem
ator Haynes

RALEIGH, Mar. 10.--Thc long
scheduled public hearing on the
various bills to change the admin
istration of the worKman's COM
pensation act has been delayed
during the past two weeks on ac-
count of the illness of Senator
Kirkpatrick of Mecklenburg, who
is virtually interested in the bills,
but with the Mecklenburg SEN
ator's recovery, it is now expected
that this hearing will be held next
week by the Senate committee on
insurance. Senator Hanes, OF
Forsyth, chairman of the commit
tee, announced yesterday that he
hoped to be able to set definite
Date for the hearing within the
next few days.
Some weeks ago the senate COM
mittee turned thumbs down on
several bills to abolish the indus
trial commission and the work
mans compensation act, after a
lengthy hearing at which repre-
sentatives of organized labor in
North Carolina vigorously OPP
posed any meddling with the pres
ent set-up. No sooner had this ac'
ton been taken by the committee
than bills amending the workmen'S
compensation act began to appear
daily. The Mecklenburg senator
introduced number Of these
bills.
There are about a dozen Of
these bills aimed at the workmen's
compensation act, which if they
were adopted. would make the
present act almost unrecognizable.
One of the bills would put ply
sician on the industrial commits
sion to pass upon fees which are
now uniform. Another would per-
nit the injured man to select his
own physician. or two physicians
if he should so desire. Still an
other would require all hearings
to be held at the scene of the ac-
cident thus adding considerably

NTASHINGTON-This is the
w last chance to wave farewell
10 Mr.. Hoover. History has not
vet determined lis place, but
many who have followed his ca
reer closely regard him as high
grade promoter who has suffered
most from the oyer-promotion Of
himself and his projects.
There's remarkable parallel
between Hoover and both the pc
riod in which he rose to power
and the course of his country dur
ing that period. 1t was an era of
ovcr-promotion in which men
pyramided values of securities
and land, the amount Of debts
which are always based on future
eXpectationS-and the hope of flu
ture profits to absurd heights. Mr..
Hoover was oYer-infated along
with everything else and he HIM
self played the part of super
salesman for his proposals and
his party to the last.
Any fair review of his admins
tration, however, must admit that
Hoover made many valuable con-
tributions which would shine
brightly now il the country
hadn't been tobogganing TO eco
nomic hell. Booms glorify pro-
moters and washouts throw them
into disrepute.
DROM0TION by personal pub
= LEFTY was never neglected
during Hnover's years as food die
tator and boss OF relief for
stricken peoples.
The parallel becomes especially
striking when you consider the
present position of the Depart
ment of Commerce, which Hoo
yer. operated. aggrandized and
expanded during eight years.

have risen by billions in any
event, but Hoover was constantly
promoting it and himself rose
oh the wave. Now it appears that
most of the individuals whom he
established as trade promoters
over the world will find their
jobs abolished and Hoover's nut
merous friends and supporters
occupying positions in the de.
partment will be the first to get
the AK.
A LII previous records OF over
promotion were broken when
Hoover started making promises
for the Republican party in 1928
and the Republicans began to
make promises for Hoover. No
salesman of the blue sky or soap
bubbles ever more sorely disap-
pointed investors than the proph-
ct, of chickens in every pot and
cars in every garage. Later,
without waiting to be inaugural

America to promote good will

The Farm Board and the Haw.
ley-SmOot tariff were pulled up.
The Wickersham Commission.
which did much splendid work,
was promoted as a solvent for
prohibition only to be virtually
repudiated by Hoover himself.
The crash came and Hoover was
found CALAMITY promoting conf.
dence that wouldn't be promoted.
The 1882 campaign found
Salesman Hoover again over
promoting his party, frantically
bawling its wares as the only
goods fit for use, while vilifying
the goods of it's competitors. But
the public reacted like badly
