THE CAROLINA THEATRE

The Carolina Theatre, successor to The
Rex, which was for number of years an
amusement institution in Hendersonville, is
one of the most artistically beautiful pic
ture houses in the country. The large
crowds attending the opening OF The Caro-
lima Monday evening were agreed that this
statement is true and all patrons were en-
thusiastic in commenting on the beautiful
theatre the charming furnishings and the
splendid sound equipment which, as far as
results are concerned, is not eXcelled in
any theatre in the country.
Everyone connected with the building CT
The Carolina merits congratulations at this
time. There is Captain Ellison A. Smyth,
owner of The Rex real estate, and the man
who furnished the capital to build The
Carolina; the Publix-Kincey Corporation,
in the picture business for several years IN
Hendersonville under most adverse condl-
tions, yet with sufficient faith in the future
of the town and section to be willing to
take long lease for the operation OF the
new theatre; Architect E. G.. StlllWell,

speaks for itself to every patron of The
Carolina; and, in fact, every person who
contributed in any way to the building of
motion picture house which is not only
credit to Hendersonville but one which will
be for years to come show place and an
advertisement for this town and section Of
North Carolina.
Builders and operators of The Carolina,
The Times-News offers its Fluctuations.
You have achieved success in a generous
measure, in constructing and equipping
this house May the future bring many
years of successful and profitable business
to the men who have the moral courage
and the business nerve to go ahead with

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
A PROTECTIVE MOVE

With the banks in nearly every other state
either suspending activities under holiday de-
crees, or operating with drastic restrictions upon
the amount of cash that might be withdrawn, it
was inevitable that steps of similar nature should
be directed by Governor Blackwood for the banks
of this state.
The banking holiday or moratorium declared for
South Carolina by the governor for the coming
week is, as the governor points out, move 20
protect the interests of all bank depositors in South
Carolina. 1t can readily be seen that when most
of the banks in one state of the union suspend
operations, the unusual demand for cash money
for the transaction of business places additional
strain upon the Immediately liquid resources Of
banks in other states and with the spread of state
wide suspensions to other areas the strain IS fur
Their increased upon those banks which remain
open Thus the situation has steadily progressed
until almost nationwide suspension of banking
activities has been forced
1t is a matter of much satisfaction and deep sig
nifcance that South Carolina has been either the
last or of the very last states to be forced into
course of this kind That fact is in itself eloquent
testimonial to the strength and soundness of the
banks of this state. There is no reason why any
depostor should be apprehensive as to the security
of the funds which he has entrusted to them.
| And now that suspension very drastic restric
tions of banking activities have become effective
throughout the entire nation it is obvious to every
thinking citizen that immediate steps will of nece5
sity have to be taken to remedy the situation sc
that the nation can continue to transact business
That conclusion indicates that the bank "holiday'
in this state will necessarily be short-lved since
a speedy clearing of the situation over the country
must now ensue.-Greenville Is. c. News

can possibly be adopted at this time. The
banking troubles were brought on by the
withdrawal of cash from the banks for
boarding. This is not the time to hoard !;
and only those who are weak through fear
will do it.
Pay your bills! Meet your obligations to
the limit of your last dollar! Let us keep
the cash in Hendersonville and in our ter
ritory circulating. That is the only way to
keep business moving and to prevent far
greater difficulties and troubles than we
have experienced so far.

WASHINGTON, Mar. 7. (UP).
Strange are the sources of news
and the workings thereof. Other
wise. the world never might have
known about the attempt to de-
liver a bomb into the lap Of
Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
A messenger boy was dis

with important mail which neces-

the main post office. While there
he overheard a discussion of the
bomb and learned the name of the
addressee.
His business finished, the boy
proceeded to a Washington news

A business man old enough in years and
in his business career to be regarded as a
pioneer in Hendersonville, DR.. w. H. Justus
has passed on. He lived beyond mans al
lotted three score and ten years; and his
life was success. He was successful IN
business, in making sterling reputation
as good citizen, as Christian gentleman,
and in all the relations of life.
DR.. JustuS was known for his business
integrity, for his quiet and courteous de-
meanor, for his kindly interest in his fellow
men and women and his loyalty to his COM

He was good man." is the encOmium
which has been most frequently pro-

BEHIND THE SCENES IN
WNSHINGTON
WITH RODNEY QUICHEB

Someone must grab Congress Ey
tie neck and make it move. Of
course the only person who can
possibly do it is Roosevelt. And
advisors will try to pull him and
push him in SO many different d.
Tections that only vigorous,
strong man. standing on. his own
feet with driving will 10 smash
through obstacles when persuasion
doesn't suffice, can make much
Roadway in any direction.
Everyone hopes - although some
doubt-that he will be able to ex.
crt complete mastery over the
Democratic le.ders of the new
Congress as we'll as over the huge
maiorities of Democratic members.
That feat is likely to take every.
thing he has, and perhaps more.
His chief weapons will be the
patronage pcwer, the possibility of
appeals 20 the country for support
and the iron in Roosevelt's system
which many admirers have thought
they saw behind his almost per.
petual grinniIg good nature.
THE head.waggers are now bas.
ing their lugubrious fears on
the failure Of Roosevelt to exert
any important influence on the dy.
ing lame duck Congress. His only
apparent efforts to intervene in any
way were seen in his conference
with Democratic leaders at New
York, which developed into a fiasco,
and in his effective effort to kill
off Democratic proposals for a
sales tax.
The one big job Congress did
passage of the prohibition repeal
amendment - wa accomplished
without his Intervention, although
he might have put 1t over and won
the credit

KEEP BUSINESS GOING

A traitor to the best interests of his COM
munity, State and country is the man who
takes advantage of present economic and
financial conditions for selfish purposes. II
the man resides in Hendersonville or else
where in this vast country, this statement
holds good. The Times-News addresses its
remarks to the people of this community
and the surrounding territory.
There are many ways in which selfish
ness and lack of interest in and cOnsidera-
ton for ones fellows may be shown at this
time. Let us have none of these manifesto
tons in HenderSonville and our section OF
North Carolina. Let us have the manifesto
tons of the spirit of unselfshness, consid-
Grafton of the interests of others, the spirit
of cooperation, of teamwork, of commun-
ity loyalty, a high moral courage and de
termination to bring this section of our
State and country through this perilous pc
riod with flying banners.
Yesterday, The Times-News suggested
that we endeayor, in so far as possible, to
carry on business as usual. AS the eco
nomic conditions which confront the cOun-
try must be remedied by the reOrganiza-
ton and reconstruction of the business
structure, clearly this is the only sane and
safe policy which promises recovery from
present conditions.
Anything that is done to Obstruct the
flow, of business at this time shows a spirit
of disloyalty to community and country. Ii
thoughtlessly done it should be promptly
corrected. If done in a spirit of craven fear
or spirit of selfshness it stamps the indi-
vidual as an undesirable citizen. In saying
this The Times-News is not even uggesting
that the bars of sound business policy be
let down and that there be inaugurated 3
period of reckless practices. Let all oul
business men stick to policies of recognized
soundness. Don't throw to the winds tn
policies and practices which have beer
found stable and solid in years of bust
ness experience in this country.
Do business as usual and do it right!
With the banks closed and the financial
streams of the country obstrueted, the bi,
problem with business men is to secur
cash to enable them to carry on. Thi
means that people who can pay must g
right on paying. They must spend for moi
NAL needs and exert themselves to NEE
their bills. The policy of boarding is tn
most unsound and dangerous policy tn;

GAME BILL GIVES THIS AND
OTHER MOUNTAIN COUNTIES
SEPARATE OPEN SEASON
Zoning State to Allow for Variance in Climatic Con-
ditions One Of Chief Features of
Proposed Measure

for some changes. particularly in
line of reducing fees.
Although the new measure does
not change the status of the law
in regard to its administration by
the department of conservation
and development, it does combine
the office Of commissioner Of in
land fisheries with that of state
game warden, thus eliminating
one division Of the department.
The director of thc department,
under the bill. would serve as
state game warden until this Of
flee is filed or at any time the
office becomes vacant until sue
cessor is elected.
Under the new bill, the fec for
licenses would be dropped sub
stantially, The county license
would be Coo in the future instead
of $1.25 as at present; a state
wide license (proposeO $40, at
present 1925; and nonresident
license (proposed), 5000, a.
present, $15.25. In addition. the
Makepeace bill provides for five
dag permit for non-residents,
amounting to $50.
Another important feature OF
the new bill is tho proposal to
divide the state into three zones,
allowing for different open and
closed seasons to allow for geo
graphic and climatic differences.
The Western zone would include
the counties of Allegheny. Ashc,
Watauga. Avery. Mitchell. Yam
cey, Buncombe, and Henderson,
and all others west Of those; the
Central zone would start east Of
the counties named and extend to
and include the counties If War
rem, Franklin. Wake, Chatham,
Lee, Moore, and Richmond; and
the Eastern zone, all counties TO
the cast of the Central zone.

WASHINGToN,-The immincnce
w of the Roosevelt administration
and the general failure of Congress
TO meet national problems has con.
tinued to inspire, in this capital
city at least, an increasingly flu.
rious speculation as to the ability
or Willingness of Mr.. Roosevelt to
assume dictatorial powers.
Much of this is uttered by con.
servatives who want Roosevelt to
be bold enough TO jam through
measures dear to them-usually OH
the theory that budget balancing, a
sales tax and drastic reduction Of
veterans expenses are essential to
recovery-or by liberals who hope
he will be bold enough to make
Congress SOAK the rich" and adopt
q vast public works program.
Everyone, however, raises the
question as to the possibility that
Roosevelt can and will become the
great national leader which every.
one who discusses the matter
agrees the country needs. Regard,
less Of whether we should be led
to the left, right or straight ahead,
the question whether we are 10 be
led anywhere at all remains a
guessing game and Mr.. Roosevelt
is at last on the spot.
Z
NEITHER n his pre.convention
campaign, in his election cam.
pafgn or in the months OF the lame
duck Congress has Roosevelt
aroused any enthusiastic convic-
ton that he is a Moses suddenly
popped up in the wilderness. Hence
no one is able to be over.cptimiG:ic
Or profoundly discouraged about
him. And hundred million per-
sons want to know what kind Of
president he is going to be.

newest TRUCK
Bills STRICT.
Sponsored Openly by Rail-
roads Will Be Heard
Tuesday
The Times-News RurenIl
S;- Walter Hotel

RALEIGH. March 7. - The
Newman-Murphy bills regulating
the truck industry in North Caro-
lima, which are openly sponsored
by the railroads, have been modi-
fed only slightly by a house jul
dietary No. l subcommittee in
structed to redraft the measures,
and they are now on the house
calendar as a special order for
Tuesday morning in virtually the
same shape as they were when
they were introduced q month
ago.
At present truck, trailer and
load can weigh as high as 10000
pounds. but under the substitute
bills reported without prejudice"
by the house judiciary committee
No. l, the maximum weight of
trucks and loads would be limited
to $4,000 pounds. The length of
the trucks is set as 33 feet, eXclu-
sive of bumpers, and the corpora
ton commission is left with the
power of fixing minimum rates
which the trucks may charge.
"These bills have been only
slightly modified" according to
w. p. Horton, executive secretary
of the N. C. Truck Owners asso-
ciation," and will, if they are en-
acted. virtually wipe out the truck
industry in North Carolina and,
according 10 estimates made by
the revenue department, result IN
a loss to the state of $4,582,O0o
in revenue now paid IN license
and gasoline taxes"
"The policy of the railroads IN
their attempt to legislate their
competitors out of business IS
wrong in principle because they
ask the state by legislative action
to remove competition. If the
bills are passed, approximately
$4,000 people will be throWn on.
of work, S21,O00,0O0 in equip
ment will be confscated and
freight rates will go up. The fruit
and vegetable growers in Eastern
North Carolina, the livestock rals-
ers in the west, and the manutac-
turers in the Piedmont will suffer
irreparable damage and loss If
motor transportation is to be
eliminated in this state. -,
"The automotive industry paid
in taxes in 1880 81, OO,S8S,270,
with a. valuation of five and hall
billion dollars, and a tax rate of
Is per cent. The railroads, for
the same year. paid $346,22O,66O
