RALEIGH, Aug. 1T h e
agreement of North Carolina
bankers to lend money to the
state at q 1-2 per cent and to
renew $4,154,300 worth Of notes
at this interest rate, thus saving
the state 100000 year or this
amount alone. is being heralded
here as a personal victory for
Governor j. C. B. Ehringhaus.
There are some who do not be-
lieve it is good thing for
either the state or the banks to
have so much money tied up in
state notes and thus keep it from
being used for commercial and
industrial loans. They think it
would be better for the state to
pay a little more interest in New
York and let the North Carolina
banks have this S4,-54,300 to
lend to business men. manufaL-
turers and farmers.
But Governor Ehpringhaus and
his advisers do not take this
view and it is known that the
governor believes it is much bet
ter to borrow whatever money
the state needs here within tho
year, and thus keep the interest
paid here inside the state where
it will help local institutions.
rather than send it to New York
where it would become lost to
the state forever. 1t is also be-
lieved, that now since the North
Carolina banks have agreed to
lend money to the state at a LIZ
per cent, that the New York
banks will soon follow suit,
knowing that if they do not they
will lose most if not all of this
states business.
The negotiations which Cover
nor Ehringhaus said st a g
Treasurer Charles M. Johnson
have been carrying on with the
North Carolina and New York
bankers for a lower interest rate
on North Carolina borrowings.
has already resulted in a saving
in interest alone of more than
$150,000 year, it is pointed
out. This saving will be increas-
ed to nearly 100000 a year
when the state manages to OBJ
tain an interest rate of 4 10
per cent on the $4,682,160 still
held in New York at per cent.

By SADIE S. PATTON

Throughout the length and
breadth of America for the past
two or three years, parents.
teachers, educators and others
interested in the youth of our
land have given deep thought
and serious consideration to the
question of how our schools are
meeting the changing needs of
our young people. Here in
North Carolina, with the breath
taking changes brought about by
our new school laws, whereby the
Old North State moves into the
forefront by assuming control
of the educational system, this
question has been a much more
vital and controversial one.
The current issue of Progress
sive Farmer has an article by
Clarence Poe, who is known and
recognized as one of the out
standing leaders in farm work in
the south. His article: "Is Your
School Meeting Farm Needs"
furnishes many ideas for careful
along this line, and
raises the instant thought as to
how the rural schools of Hender-
son county are meeting farm
needs.
The Smith-Hughes bill which
was passed by congress in 1917,
provided plans for the teaching
of agricultural in rural schools,
and while this work was not
started throughout this state inn

EUROPE
OF Two Minds
AS TO F. D. R
u. P. President Finds U.
S. Biggest News Story
Overseas

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-(UP).
The United States is the biggest
news story in Europe today, &C
cording to Karl A. Bickel. presi-
dent of the United Press, who re-
turned yesterday from an extern
sive European trip.
Bickel visited most of the Eu-
ropean countries including Russia,
France, Germany and Great Bri-
tain. and talked with many lead
ers.
"Not since the day that Amer
lea declared war on the central
powers has the course of events
in the United States been of such
intense interest abroad as at pres
ent," Bickel said.
"Everv item dealing with the
Roosevelt economic reorganization
program, the possible Sterilization
of the dollar and the new naval
expansion program is page one
matter"
Bickel said Europe is of two
minds in regard to the Roosevelt
economic program. He explained
that countries like England ana
France where "the old Demo-
cratic tradition is still a vital
force in the life of the community
and the policy of the freedom OF
the individual is vital principle,
public opinion regards the present
American effort with unconcealed
skepticism and cnocern."
"Curiously enough in the new
err relationships like Italy. Russia
and Germany, where the processes
of democracy have been shelved
in favor of concentrated and very
largely unrestricted power in the
hands of a group of dominant
partisan executives, the idea OF
attempting to shape and control
economic development by political
ukase is not new and is thorough
" understood" he added, "and
in these nations. the Roosevelt
Johnson experiment is being close
ly followed with attention and un-
derstanding.
Europe at present is in better
shape generally than it has been
since before the World war, &C
cording to Bickel. He said the
people have more money and are
in better spirits.
"There is less danger of an
armed conflict in Europe today
than in any time in a decade" he
declared. "Tension between Rus
STA and Poland, Russia and
France, and Russia and England
has been largely removed. While
the French still maintain a ques-
tioning attitude in regard to the
Hitler government, the possibili-
ties of conflict between Germany
and France are most remote"
Bickel discussed the strained
situation" between Austria and
Germany, due, he said, to the ac-
tivity of the Nazi party in Aus
tria. He believed there was slight
prospects that this issue would re-
suit in conflict between the two
countries, expressing the opinion
it would be worked out internal
y in Austria"

The Code
interpretations for Guidance
of Employers and Employees
By NOAH HOLLOWELL
Chairman of National Recov-
cry Executive Committee
of Hendersonville

What does paragraph a of the
Presidents agreement mean as
to regulated hours not applying
to "employes on emergency and
maintenance repair work."
Interpretation No. 7 explains
this as meaning what we ordin-
arily call sin a pinch" The
mechanic or other person on
emergency work is not to be
restricted to the prescribed num-
Der of hours. In order to cut
down such practice and give en-
ployment to others. time and a
third pay (one-third more than
ordinary hour pay must be paid
such worker. Too much emer-
gency stuff is not in keeping
with the spirit of the agreement.
If Mr.. Jones operates a shop
on a 4O-hour basis and Mr..
Smith operates on a 24-hour
basis how can Mr.. Jones COM
pete with Mr.. Smith and pay one
and one-third price for mechanl-
cal work in an emergency!
When Mr.. Smith gets through
paving for three shifts of labor
in order to keep open "a hours
in Hendersonville he might be
better prepared to answer this
from a profit standpoint than l
can. Try to avoid the emergen-
cies.
How much is the NRA expect
ed to add to the selling costs Of
a mercantile business?
This will vary according to
the number of employees. In a
large store the addition of one
clerk will not be felt so much
but where there are about two
employed and another is added
this will materially build up the
selling cost from the clerical
standpoint. In New York the
operation of the code is expect
ed to increase expenses about 4
per centum. In Hendersonville
the increase will be considerable
because of the comparatively big
increase in payroll in small
stores when an employee is added.
But there will be no increase in
some stores.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IL (UP)
"A suit which may have far
reaching effects upon President
Roosevelt's agricultural recovery
program was filed in district
supreme court yesterday by two
Chicago milk dealers, who seek
to have the whole agricultural
adjustment act called uncon-
stitutional.
They ask in particular an in
junction against Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace forbidding
him to establish uniform retail
milk prices for Chicago's diaries:
The action is the first formal
one taken against the presiden-
tial recovery program since 1t
was inaugurated by Roosevelt.
Should the suit be successful at
torneys said it might take "the
teeth" out of the farm recovery
law.
The case will be argued Aug.
81, probably before Justice Dan

flee said his attorneys and de-
partment of justice agents had
been working upon the case ever
since the same suit was filed in
Chicago several weeks ago. The
Chicago suit against govern
ment milk administrator was
withdrawn when he resigned.
The milk men then transferred
] the case here so they could get
action upon Wallace.
The suit was filed by the
Southwest Dairy Products com
pany of Stickney, ILL.,, and the
Economy Dairy, of NORWOOD

The dairy firms cOntended II

Julio Sanguili chief of the Hav-
ana army division, had assumed
command Of the army and that
Lieut. Col. Perdomo had taken
charge of the police and had
started to disarm the Porra,
dreaded secret police.
Captain Torres told the Uni

one asked other branches Of the
army to make a united demand
for Machado to step out so that
there would be no fighting be-
