WRONG REASONING

A "repeap' map which is being circulated about
the country showing prohibition sentiment as rep
resented by the vote in the house of representa-
tives, lists South Carolina as "wet" accordingly.
The only states in the "dry' column are North and
South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma Iowa,
Mississippi, West Virginia, Maine and Idaho.
To say such a classification represents the real
views of the majority of the voters in all the states
would be ridiculous just as much so as saying that
the sentiments voted by South Cardinals delega-
ton to the National Democratic convention proved
this state is "wringing wet" In voting the repeal
resolution the house and, senate did not thereby
take any direct action toward removing the 18th
amendment from the constitution or confirming it
but merely passed on to the states the opportunity
for them to decide.
In doing this both Democrats and Republicans
were not expressing their personal sentiments &C
curately their beliefs as to the weness dry
ness of their states. They were following the pro-
visions of the party platform in each case and
| those platforms were framed by delegates chosen
without specific labels as vets or drys.
If the vets are counting on a vote by the people
OF the various states to parallel that of
i sney are due for rude neutrality-suspicious. Is

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
BY OUR OWN YARDSTICk

A little while ago when North Carolina was set
ting up a standard of progress based upon its ca
pacity to issue bonds it the favorite pastime
of the leaders in the states thought and action to
draw comparisons to recite what other states were
doing in contrast with what being done IN
North Carolina and thereby to establish the basis
for more extensive public spending.
Fortunately, that disposition is being abandoned
not only here but throughout the country Each
state is trying now under the exigencies of press
ing and bitter circumstances, to cut the cloth to
suit it's own garment and letting the other fellow
stay out of the picture.
And that. by the same token, is becoming q
blessing to the individual well to the state,
for the same self-analyss and self-examnation,
independent of the neighbors, are being INDUCED.
We are not so much urged along now by what
the Joneses are doing-and the Joneses are not
doing very much for that matter-but Individual
families are gauging their needs to their abili
ties to pay irrespective of what is fashionable or
what standing and prestige would seem to demand.
This tendency, both with individuals and with
states, is what got this country into the thick Of
the mess in which it has found itself. Over-spread-
ing has come as a result of pride engendered by
what was commonly regarded as stylish and as
necessary to maintain ones place among ones fell
lows.
If a given state had been spending millions on
highways or education North Carolina concluded
that it would be shameful if it failed to measure No
to the achievements of other commonwealth in
this respect.
But the trouble in North Carolina that an
average degree of development and progress was
unsatisfactory 1t had to Guido others and, conse-
ouently this state hitched around its neck public
indebtedness that in the gross, is only exceeded in
this country by two other states Illinois and New
York.
So it has been, also, with ianumerable individuals
and families They were not content with the class
of automobile their income justified; they had to
buy the fancy type that the neghbors bought. They
were dspleased with the old radio because the
friends next door had bought one more modern
and with the latest appliances, and the old machine
was discarded for the new, even though the family
budget creaked under the strain.
1t is fortunate day in the history of the people
of this country both as individuals and in the ag-
gregate that makes society, that the styles must
again be set up on basis of what the family poe
textbook will endure and not on the level of what
the neighbOrs are doing.
That means that sanity and prudence and plain
common sense have been forced back into play
and that in the process of rebuilding if the tragic
lessons of these late years have been learned or
derby and balanced spending will figure in the eQua-
tion.-Charlotte Observer.
