WHERE THE GOVERNMENT CAN
SPEND MONEY

Announcement is made from Washing
ton that the government will spend more
than a hundred million dollars in the Ten
nessee Valley area. About one-half of this
sum will be expended in construction work
at Muscle Shoals and Cove Greek and the
balance of the huge sum will be expended
in the Great Smoky Mountains National
Park and for roads, public buildings and
other public works. A hundred million
dollars will add visibly to the amount o.
the circulating medium in the Valley area
and while the spending is going on there
will be more jobs and better business. The
weakness of these government spending
programs, however, is that they cannot be
continued indefinitely. After short time
the jobs are completed and the spending
stops and then the people of the country
at large must begin paying the bills. The
paying period extends over many years,
with interest added.
However, the plans are made and the
government is going ahead with the spend
ing and there is no reason why the people
of the Valley area should refuse to accept
the benefits for the present and the future
The present benefits will be in the form of
employment and the distribution of cash in
this section. The benefits in the future
must be left to developments through the
years. If these millions are wisely expend-
ed some of the results will return dividends
in the future on this big expenditure Of
the peoples money.
Development OF the French Broad Val
ley along the lines suggested by Prof. S. P.
Werner in his articles published in The
Times-News would be Of permanent bene-
fit to this section of Western North Caro-
lima. These articles have attracted much
attention and have been we'll received by
the people of this section and by citizens
of other sections who have given them a
reading. While the government is spend
ing the French Broad Valley project offers
one of the most promising opportunities for
development in the whole range of the
Tennessee Valley area.

the act of the suicide is such as
to give him no opportunity of re-
penting of one of the most helm
Gus sins possible for man to COM
nit. Oh, there are those who
have the idea that opportunity
will be given on the other side.
We should like to think that is
true. But we find no oasis for
such a hope in the Word Of God
from which alone we can have
any knowledge Of the future life.
That word classes murdererS, I'M
penitent murderers of course, with
those who shall miss heaven and
suffer "the second death" or
hell. "But the fearful and I'M
believing and the abominable and
murderers and whoremongers and
sorcerers and idolaters and all
liars-shall have their part in the
lake which burneth with fire and
birthstone, which is the second
DEATH" (Rev. 21:S).
Instead Of the faithless and
goddess and cowardly and cruel
and wicked and hopeless course
of the sane suicide, how much
better the course of the Philip
plan jailer, who, instead of fill
ing a suicides grave, put his
trust in the Christ who. died for
him, had the assurance of the
forgiveness Of his sins and of sal:
walton and of a glorious and
everlasting life, entered at once
upon the joyful service Of Christ,
and doubtless has received his
Lords, "Well done, thou good
and faithful servant: enter thou
into the JOY Of thy Lord"

A. BAD LAW

Probably one of the worst laws ever enacted by
aNorth Carolina legislature is the measure put on
the books this year. which frees the delinquent tax
payer from the obligation to pay his back taxes and
permits him instead to execute note for the
amount in arrears as far back as 1927. This is
plainly an encouragement, to the non-payment of
taxes. 1t favors the citizen who is ready to use
any pretext to avoid paying his just dues and vic
rimizes the citizen whose conscience impels him t.
make all possible sacrifices in order to keep square
WITH ms government, We are glad that Orange is
one on the fye counties which are specifically ex-
eepsed from the operation Of this law-lThe Chapel

ORIENT LURES SOUTH AMERICA
 TO TRADE TEST
European, North American Markets Glutted, Far
 East Approached
By GIDEON SEYMOUR

BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 26.- South America is looking to the Far East, for new commercial op- portunities.
 With European and North Amer ican markets glutted by surpluses or walled off by quotas and tar ifs, Brazil. Argentina, Uruguay and Peru have sent to the Or tent trade emissaries and trial shipments of meat, wheat, wool, cotton and hides.
 Will Japan Eat Meat?
 If 65,000,000 Japanese, already buying Argentine wool and Bra zilian cotton, can be induced to balance with bread, beef and nut ton from the pampas, their ration of fish and rice, the market will be a boon to a continent where production costs are among the lowest in the world.
 Trade between South American countries and Japan is so new. and still so small, that statistics do not portray the ascending in terest in it. They show that Ar gentina sends to Japan less than one per cent of it's exports, and buys from that country only 2.2 per cent of it's imports.
 This compares insignificantly with the United Kingdom, which last year bought 30 per cent of Ar genuine exports and sold here 20 per cent of all imports.
 But the thickly peopled islands of Japan offer an economic anal

MAY HOG CHOLERA OUT.
BREAKS

Hog cholera outbreaks were
reported on 10 premises in
Maryland during May, compar-
ed with an average of Is for
that month during the last Il
years. Four were classed as
backyard outbreaks, and 6 oc-
CURED on farms where pigs are
bred and raised. On one of
these farms, however, a gar
bage feeding plant was MAIN
tanned. Eight of the outbreaks
were classed as primary, or
new centers of infection, and 2
were secondary, or due to the
spread of the disease. AS US
ual, the secondary outbreaks
occurred before any notifica-
tion was given that swine sick
ness had occurred in the COM
munity. 1t is rare that spread
of cholera occurs when the cas-
es are promptly reported.
Eight of the % counties re-
ported cholera losses. Wash

3 outbreaks, and the following
had 1 each: Anne Arundel.
