WASHINGTON - The hodge
podge' of opinion on the 80
hour week bill has piled up in
great contrast with the simplicity
and ease which marked its cOnsid-
Grafton and passage by the Senate.
An enormous field Of controversy
has been opened by such related
Questions rs federal regulation Of
hours, the minimum wage pro-
vision, import embargo PROPOSALS,
the "produCtion control feature,
rOnstitutiOnality, effects on pur-
laSing power, ability of industry
to regulate itself, minimum wage
fixing by localities rather than in
duStries, sweatshOp competition,
peculiar problems of particular in
dustries, antitrust law revision.
Even the labor movement and its
friends became all mixed up and
unable to agree.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE GOVERNOR

While The Observer has not been able TO TOTO"
the leadership of Governor Ehringhaus in all pal
ticuars, it is nevertheless appreciatve OF the an
ficulties of his task and the many conflicting ana
Irritating interests into the vortex of which he has
been pitched.
The governor has not so far been in position to
show himself at his best, to reveal his quail Is OF
craftsmanship in such light as he is cap;r1e OF
showing, chiefly for the reason that, IN addition
to his physical disabilities he has been dealing with
n legislature that none too friendly with nm.
His illness which has clung to him since and even
before his Inauguration has been such as to depete
his resources and to handicap him in his more mill
tant possibilities as a leader 1t of contlnu-
ing and aggravating type before which many less
stout-hearted would have quailed but against the
odds which this condition imposed upon him, he has
faithfully held on and remained at his post amid
aches and fevers.
His leadership in the senate has been far less
challenged than in the house. In the latter are men
who were unfriendly to his when he was in
the race for governor and it is unfortunate that
some of the i'll tastes of the gubernatoral contest
appear to have hung over and ever and anon to
have fared forth in the legislature to add to the
conflicting forces with which the governor has had
to contend.
But in the main, his views have been met by
legislative enactment. That applies especially to
the major matters of appropriations and revenues
and it was at this point that The Observer could
not blindy follow him, his ideas both as to spend
ing and as to sources from which to get the money
to spend being at variance with what seemed to
this newspaper to be in keeping with the times and
the economic condition of the people.
And here, again, the governor must be accorded
the courage of his convictions not only but a
knowledge of fiscal demands with which the gen.
eral public could not manifestly, be informed in
detail. The pressure upon him from outside
sources from the creditors of the state must have
been terrific.
Long before the legislature met it being
frequently said over the state that the reve-
nue. bill for North Carolina would be written by
attorneys for New York banks whose money this
state has borrowed. That was an exaggerated way
of presenting the truth of the situation in respect
to the insistence the part of these outside tnan-
cial agencies that in writing the revenue bills
dihgent should be taken to see that the states
credit was to be maintained.
Governor Ehrnghaus is less known in this sec
ton of the state than east of Raleigh and, there
fore, less appreciated, but out of the confusions
and conflicts of this hour, when the legislature shall
have gone home and the governor is left to work
out the problems of the state alone, he will come
into his strength and into his rghtful kingdom of
popular understanding and appreciation. His fine
personality. ever alive and ablaze will carry him
long way, and make him mighty hard man to
be displeased with.-Charlotte Observer.

Perhaps there are some flower
lovers who do not have time to
keep in close touch with the flow
en- clubs Of Georgia, Florida and
South Carolina, 50 | would like
to pass on to them some Of the
valuable suggestions they gave on
the cultivation Of different flow
ers. From the questionable
column conducted by Floyd Bral-
liam, Madison, Tenn, here is the
suggestion about cultivation Of
dahlias: Dahlias should not be
planted too sOon-not before the
middle Of May. They grow off
too vigorously for month or
more, then on account of summer
heat become so hard and woody,
that by fall they do not produce
many flowers. So now get the
ground fortified and spaded in
pretty deep, select a plot that
gets the sunshine nearly all day
long, set the bulbs out some time
after the middle Of May, then
when the stalks get up about IS
inches high, and show the first
bud, work in a half tea cup of
acid phosphate to the soil around
each plant. This will give you a
nice tender stalk for fall, suffi-
GENTLY tall, and which will pro-
duce a quantity Of large blooms.
In fertilizing plants with stable
compost be sure that it is well
decayed else when using it too
fresh it produces dahlias with
soft, suculent stalks and inferior
blooms.
Don't forget to set out another
lilac bush this year. Prune only
slightly as the flowers on this
come on the old wood. Put about
a half bushel Of well decayed
barn yard fertilizer around the
lilac bush every other year, and
Just watch how it will bloom for
you. Do let's make the city and
county so much more beautiful.
Try planting Il lavender wisteria
vine near enough to climb over Il !
crab apple tree. They should
bloom about The same time. Moth |
