WILSON MAIL.
ROBBERY FAILS.
Officers Recover $4,000
Registered Mail After
a Few Hours

WILSON, Oct. 19.-(UP).--,
Three pouches of registered mail
containing $4,000, stolen here
yesterday in a daring one-man
hold-up, were recovered by ottl-
GERS several hours later.
The money, consigned to Green
vile banks. was found in a wood
near here, where the bandit had
forced a mail truck driver to car
ry him. .Io
Police held Hugh Hawley, the
truck driver, pending completion
of an investigation and the ar
rival of postal inspectors. The
bandit and several companions
who met him at the wood had lot
been located last night.
Hawley said the gunman held
him up, forced him to drive three
miles to a wood, then tied his
hands and released him. The ban
dit and his waiting companions
then escaped with the currency.
Officers could offer no reason
why the pouches had been aban-
doned unopened.

CHRISTIAN HAS

His Walk "Down Streets
of Time" Distinctive,
Says Speaker

The Rev. J. Lewis Thornburg,
Statesville Lutheran pastor, who
returned yesterday to the city for
a continuation of his series of
evangelical messages at Grace Lu-
theran church last evening, took
for his theme, "The Christian
Walk" He chose triple text on
which to base this message, each
of them from the fifth chapter of
Ephesians. These texts were:
"Walk in love-; walk as chill
dren of the light" and walk
carefully" A splendid audience,
in which the Rev. Claude Moser,
pastor of the Methodist church,
and members of that congrega-
ton united, was present for the
service.
The speaker said during the
course of his remarks:
"Have you ever noticed the pc
culiar walk of people, the soldier,
the sailor, and the general run OF
citizens? Paul says there is a
characteristic manner of the
Christians going as he moves
down the streets of Time; for GER
tain marks should distinguish him
from the ordinary crowd. These
marks were the three found in

DOLLARS ROLL INTO CITY'S
STORES in AN INCREASING
NUMBER FIRST DOLLAR DAY
Will Buy Its Maximum Value Now and Will Put Men
and Women Back to Work in Industries
of Nation

Good u. Dollars, the best
money in the world. began to
roll into Hendersonville stores
in increasing number today as
merchants opened Dollar Days
Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day.
1t is the first dollar day sale
held here in many months and,
for once in local business ex-
perience, self-interest is in step
with patriotism. For it has been
pointed out that a dollar not
only will buy a maximum OF
value now but it will also add
its weight to the movement to
get more dollars into circula-
ton and thus speed up the
wheels of industry and give
Jobs to more men and women
the country over.
With a score or more mer-
chants offering specials, a sur
vev of stores and their adver-
tisements indicated that a dol
lar spent now will go much far
Their than it will in few weeks
or months. Local stores, as we'll
as others throughout the coun-
try. are operating with larger
expense, due to shorter work
ing hours and increased pay
rolls, and in an effort to speed
up sales and thus meet this
larger overhead they have gone
the limit in offering bargains,
it was pointed out. Under the
new retail code of the NRA,
department and variety stores
are opening at 9 a. m. and clos
ing at $50 p. M, every day eX-
cept Saturday, when the hours
are $50 a. m. until 10 p. m.

NORRIS is URGING
NEW CURRENCY

McCOOK, Nebr., Oct. 10. (UP).
Senator George Norris, progress
sive Republican who bolted his
party to support Franklin D.
Roosevelt in the last election,
said in a telegram to the presi-
dent yesterday that "the farmer
is rapidly losing confidence in re-
lief attempts
Senator Norris urged the presi-
dent to issue S1,500,000,000 of
new currency in order to restore
the purchasing power of the
farmer.
Under the administrations pres
ent monetary policies the prices
of farm products are going down
while the prices of things bought
by farmers are going up, Senator
Norris pointed out.
His criticism of President
Roosevelt's currency policies was
the first that Senator Norris,
noted for his battles with presi-
dents from both parties, has di-
rected at the present administra'
ton.
His telegram, coming imme,
diately after the administration
announced its plans FOR relief OF
hog raisers and corn growers
was taken by political friends to
mean that Norris considers these
plans isadequate.

drawer nearby.
Policemen came upon several
safe-blowers at work in BENEFITS
vile, S. c., but the burglars es-
capped before exploding their nj
