STARTS SOMETHING


 LONDON, July 5. President Roosevelt's dramatic refusal to have anything to do with the gold stan dard resulted in the gold bloc talk ing definite steps to make good their threat to desert the barley unless it sailed under the gold flag
 In the gold bloc quarters, last Monday night, it was stated some of the delegates at least expected immediate orders from their gov ernments to return home leaving minor secretaries to watch the proceedings. Should the entire group abandon the conference it would virtually be paralyzed.
 Future of Farley
 Monday afternoon British Pre- mier Ramsay Macdonald, as Presi- dent of the Conference, decided, after the British delegates met with the gold bloc, to summon meet ing of the bureau on Tuesday to determine the future of the par ley. At that time came state ment from the British quarters there was no question of the con- ference having collapsed.
 Tuesday morning the prediction was made that the Steering Com mittee of the World Economic Con- ference would recommend adjourn ment immediately. It was then stated that if the Steering Com mittee agreed on adjournment or a recess even the recommendation would be placed before the Con- ference Plenary Session on Thurs day. It was stated the British preferred a recess to adjournment
 Want Adjournment
 Dr. Hendryk Collin, Dutch Pre- mier, proposed adjournment yester- day morning, acting in behalf of France, Belgium, Holland, Italy Czechoslovakia, Poland and Switz- erland He was supported by the French and Belgium representa- tives but Premier Macdonald ano other British, also American Dele gate Cox opposed it.
 The American delegation decided to oppose adjournment, insisting on questions not allied with cur. rency problems should be threshet out and useful results reached. Int highest British quarters stated there could be no question of a con ference breakdown, but also dis closed the conviction that efforts to solve world depression had suf- fered a serious setback in Presi- dent Roosevelt's rebuff to the gold States.
 Nothing Done
 The Steering Committee met yesterday afternoon and then ad- journed until Thursday without debating the question of adjourn ment.
 Authoritative quarters close tc the Americans said they expected further instructions last night from the President which it was hoped would solve the crisis and enable the conference to continue but other reports from the cruiser h. dianapolis, off Annapolis, tn o { close to Roosevelt said he evidently was giving little attention to the conference, expecting the next move to come from the gold bloc members led by France, but the French urged the barley to ad- journ as they said, since Roose- welt declined to permit dollar tsao- ilization, it was useless to continue the meeting.

VERY FEW ATHEISTS

A great many people don't believe a lot of the
creeds some profess to be absolute atheists, but
there are few such. Even the noted Bob Ingersoll
was only an agnOstic. He evidently believed in I'M
mortality, as evidenced by the following beautiful
Grafton delivered over the body of his dead
brother:
"He had not passed on life's highway the stone
that marks the highest point, but being weary for
moment he lay down by the wayside, and using
his burden for pillow, fell into that dreamess
sleep that kisses down his eyelids still. While yet
in love with life and raptured with the world, he
passed to silence and pathetic dust.
"Yet after ALL it may be best. just in the hap
piest, sunniest hour of all the voyage, while eager
winds are kissing every sail, to dash against the
unseen rock and in an instant hear the pillows
roar above sunken ship. For whether in mid
sea or 'mongst the breakers of the farther shore,
wreck at last must mark the end Of each and
ALL And every life, no matter if its every hour
is rich with love and every moment jeweled with
joy, WILL at it's close, become tragedy as sad and
deep and dark as can be woven of the warp and
wool of mystery and death.
"This brave and tender man in every storm Of
life oak and rock, but in the sunshine he was
vine and flower. He was the friend of all heroic
souls. He climbed the heights and left all super
stitions far below, while on his forehead fell the
golden dawning of the grander day.
'He loved the beautiful and was with color,
form and music touched to tears. He sided with
the weak, the poor and wronged, and lovingly gave
aims. With loyal heart and with the purest hands,
he faithfully discharged all public trusts.
Life is a narrow vale between the cold and
barren peaks of two eternities. We strive in vain
to look beyond the heights, we cry aloud, and the
only answer is the echo of our wailing cry. From
the voiceless lips of the unreplying dead, there
comes no word; bit in the night of death hope
sees star. and listening, love can hear the rustic
of a ng."-Marshville Home.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING

Tyre Taylor who steps into a government JOB
at the adequate salary of $4,000 every four
years. is living proof that the best laid plans OF
mice and men don't always gang agley. In Mr..
Taylor's case a well-lad plan worked wondrously.
And it is not for us to say that Mr.. Taylor
hasn't more than a plan to qualify him for his
new position and responsibility. He is equipped
beyond doubt to advise the r. F. c. upon the IN
tricate points of law involving millions of dollars
in public funds, which may confuse that hte-saY-
ing agency.
Mr.. TAYLOR is a lawyer of experience. For ex-
ample, during the year between his emergence
from college and his appointment to a preferred
position with the state, he actually appeared be-
fore the court In one case it is known that as
much as 5000 was involved which he translated
into Judgment Just like that. The other escapes
us for the moment. but recollection promptetE
that it had something to do with coored man
found guilty in spite of the vigorous defense made
by his attorney.
From this background of varied legal training
Mr.. Taylor went to Raleigh and cOncOcted 10
year plan for his state, whereby the millennium
was to be ushered in at the end OF decade. The
state still has the plan, so that obviously, nobody
is the loser in the matter.
Mr. Taylor's remaining qualifications for this
new job at an $500 annual salary consist of
having risen rapidly. Not many young men leav-
ing college can expect to much as $4,000
or S35 900 their first four years out in the cruel
world and not many can hope that their ability
will be recognized SO promptly has young Tay~
lor's Maybe it is because they have PLAN

HOLDING UP THE RACKETEERs

Just why cleaners and dyers should be the par
ticular meat of the racketeers does not seem to
be clear, but it is fact apparently that they are
lorded over by thugs and gangsters in many of
the large cities.
A cleaners and dyers war has been going on in
a metropolitan city Violence bombs and shotguns
are the means by which the racketeers enforce
their demands for tribute against this and other
industries.
One cleaning establishment proprietor, however,
put up fight when the president" and "secre-
tary' of ''the association" came around to shake
him down.
And because the propretors son was able to get
the drop on them with shotgun they are now
under arrest
The rotten situation in this business of rae
keteering is indicated by the remark of a prosecu-
tor the other day, that "most of the retailers and
plant owners find it easier to pay the membership
fees of the association and raise prices than to
risk the vengeance that might come if they swore
out warrants"
So long as the vengeance of the racketeers is
more fearful to the legitimate business man than
the vengeance of the law to the racketeers just
so long will the rackets continue to be prosperous,
and the law enforcement officers will continue TO
find it difficult to secure complaining witnesses

ASHEVILLE MAYOR is A PECULIAR
OFFICIAL

Mayor Wamboldt of Asheville has I'M
usual and peculiar ideas about law en-
forcement., The Asheville Mayor, incensed
at the failure of the police department to
enforce the law against bootleggers in
that city, declared that the enforcement
Of law in Asheville was the function Of the
police department and not of its citizens"
according to the newspaper story of the
matter
The Mayors statement was in reference
to failure of the police department, over a
periodOf months, to close up certain places
where liquor was being sold in residence
districts The chief Of police claimed that
the officers of the law had made several
attempts to do this, but had failed to OBJ
tain sufficient evidence, and in answer to
a question from the Mayor the police chief
said he thought something could be done
about particular case of Bookkeeping in
about thirty days Mayor Wamboldt re-
piled that it must be done in thirty min
utes." What an unusual and peculiar
Mayor
The Asheville police chief took the po-
sitiOn that the law officers would raid GER
tain places if citizens would swear out
warrants 1t was then that Mayor Wam-
boldt warmed up and informed the chief
that it is the business of the Asheville
police department to enforce the laws, to
get evidence and to wipe out bootlegging.
We wonder if the same is true in other
towns in North Carolina, and if it also
applies to the law enforcement officers of
a county?
