DETERMINATION THAT WINS

In DR.. S. Parkes Cadmans syndicated newspaper
column recently appeared this question of reader;
'Will you please advise me how to deal with my
boy aged 10, who has not yet had the luck to get
a job since leaving high SCHOOL,"
A Rock Hill reader signing himself J. G. A,
volunteered an answer in letter to The State,
saying:
perhaps may be able to help this perturbed
parent at least to some extent by reciting the ex-
perience of another jobless son, who years ago,
when times were harder than they are today, and
Jobs were scarcer, succeeded in 'annexing one.
st was in 1876 He walked into a country
newspaper office and politely, but earnestly, in
formed the editor that he wanted to learn the
printers art; that he would do anything-sweep
out the office, fetch water, deliver papers, dis
tribute circulars, and do anything else 16-year-
old boy could do, around a print shop; and fur
ther that he would perform this service in ex-
change for the opportunity of learning the printing
business
Naturally the job was secured. AT the emo OF
the first month, although working without pay, a
FIVE dollar bill was given him; at the end of the
second month"; ten dollars; and at the end of the
third thirty dollars!
"That boy never solicited another job and has
not been jobless from that day to this, and he has
held positions since then that paid consid-
erably better wages. Jobs are scarce today, but
they are not as scarce as boys who are willing to
get down and lift Selah."
Every parent, rich poor every boy, every
able bodied R.F.C. beneficiary, in a word every
body would lose nothing by meditation upon that
story of youth who was determined to make MS
way in the world and did.
Or is such old-fashioned ambition and willing
ness to sacrifice mistakenly considered out of place
in the modern world ?-Greenville Piedmont

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
CORN COMES BACK

The Record cannot understand how men of pub
lie standing and of keen political insight could eX-
pect an intelligent electorate to believe that the
result of the balloting on November will not COM
nit the State of North Carolina to its own pro-
hibition policy.
If we regard prohibition as fundamentally right
to the extent that this state should undertake to
maintain it for ourselves, would it not be desplca-
bic for us as citizens to lend our assistance IN max
ing possible the return of legalized booze to other
states, with the thought that are in position to
bar our own doors against recognized evil!
Such reasoning has a peculiarly hollow ring,
particularly when recall the old-time battle CRY
of few generations ago, to the effect that this
nation cannot exist half slave and half free" 1t
would seem that something is being done to amend
the old methods of reasoning, by those who PIC
ture North Carolina with fence around 1t and
the booze loodgates reopened in the rest of the
states.
With plethora of leaders STOPPING to such alb
surd reasoning, it is certainly heartenlng TO read
the frank and open pronouncement of Mr.. Nor
rison, which declares:
81 am grateful to the friends who have men
toned me in connection with the succession to
Governor Gardner on the National Democratic Ex-
ecutive committee, but l would not be able to &C
cept this position if elected.
GAS see my duty, 1 shall soon be confronted
with situation which will require my whole effort
for what 1 believe to be the good of humanity and
North Carolina. | do not wish in the near future
to be hampered by any moderating responsibilities,
for shall give my all in an effort to prevent the
Democratic party in North Carolina, of the State,
from being controlled by those who desire to see
whiskev in this State. We must make ready to
prevent the wreck and decentralization of this State
which will ensue if the State is not soon complete
Iy taken from the hands of those who would throw
it back morally and politically, forty years shall
permit no yearning for popularity or remote hope
of office to deter from doing battle with friend
or foe who may seek to re-establsh barrooms, dis
tilleries or dispensaries in North Carolina"
If North Carolina votes wet the people of this
State will have invited the legalzation of liquor
here
If the State votes dry, on the other hand, there
will be basis Ter a fight to retain prohibition on
the State statute oooks.-Hckory Record.

THOUGHTS OF
A FISHERMAN

I've counted road accidents in
the papers for six months now;
and liquor was in SO per cent of
them. If anybody thinks repeal
will mean a more sober country,
he can keep count from now till
next March, and tabulate his re-
turns. Repeal may be all right
on their grounds but not on
those related to soberness. If
liquor is made easy to get (and
cheap, for that's what they are
demanding now let's see the
record when the trembling hand
is at the wheel.
When is a man drunk anyhow?
Scientists, doctors, lawyers, iur-
| les, judges. preachers and under
takers disagree about this CUES
ton. He is probaIly drunk long
before he or any one else knows
| it. The extent to which alcohol
affects the normal reactions is
tremendously variable. When Il
hardened old topper asks q tender
foot into the sort of ''refresh-
ment saloon" scheduled to take
place of the old saloon, one drink
may do enough to the neophytc
to equip him for slaughter on the
highway. In the old days the
mules were among the chief SUI
ferers. The way the Saturday
night procession Of drunken drlv-
ers used to roll along the roads
from town to the country, beat
ling mules, yelling, careening over
the whole pixies, may be recalled
by many still young. But the
mules were not geared up to 80
miles an hour.
There will be retributiDn in
plenty. Those who have been so
anxious to get their personal lib
critics back, will get them, but
with interest in the shape Of hos
pital bills. of taxes for more
''public welfare" of importunate
neighbors. Mr.. Rockefeller init
mates that maybe temperance
may be better than total abstin-
ence for those who just must
drink. But temperance is a mat
ter of temperament to a large ex
tent, and the drinker in America
has been VIGOROUSLY Incorporate.
The American nervous system is
not the Italian or the Spanish.
Moreover, the liquor trade itself
is heavily interested in increased
consumption. There never was
a temperance bar-room, or q

FORTY YEARS AGO

Rockefeller and Populism. These were wide
apart as the poles forty years ago. But the W. c.
T. U. points out that the idea of John D. Rookie
Teller, Jr. for solution of the liquor problem by
strict national control with all private profit elm
mated in the same idea that the Populist party ad
vocated in 1898.
"We demand that the present liquor law shall
remain until such time as it can be replaced by
what is known as State and National control with
all profits eliminated" said the Iowa State plat
form of the Populist party
This is the same proposal that Mr.. Rockefeller
is advocating today. Whatever the merits of the
plan for State monopoly of liquor it cannot be
said to be a idea. South Carolina tried it ou
and found it failed to solve the liquor problem

AGRICULTURE

BERLIN. Oct. 20. - (UP).. =
Germany must produce on her
own soil all the food she re-
quires. This is the axiom and aim
of the Nails agricultural policy.
The prerequisite for the, attain
ment OF this state of self-snftl-
cheney when Germany will no
longer depend on food imports IS
the. creation of a well-ba!anced
agriculture. And this again only
can be attained by rigid agricul-
tural plannings, supervised by a
central body which. in accord
ance with Nazi conception, only
can be the state. ,
Agricultural planning is the
only salvation for Germany and
for German agriculture, and any
attempt at agricultural relief not
)envisaging radical reorganization
must remain patchwork, the Nazis
claim.

Boosting one particular branch
of agriculture will not suffice,

such course.

Many within thought the machine guns were being fired in the sta- ton itself. They ran for any con- venient shelter.
 Some of the customers in the station restaurant dropped down behind the counters.
 Bullets riddled cars parked near the spot where the officers, were shot.
 For . moment after the echo of machine gun fire died down, there was tense silence in the plaza.
 Then from all directions, men and women ran toward the spot.
 vetterli, disrcgarding his wound, ran to the station to spread the alarm, but found that a woman at the travellers aid desk already was on a telephone calling police head quarters.
 Riot squad spoured into the sta- tion with sirens screaming on their cars and ambulances arrived from nearby General hospital. Police radio broadcasts sounded general alarm and patrol cars were directed to take up pursuit of the machine gunners.
 Authorities generally regarded underworld to liberate Nash.
 An error in timing by the ma chine gunners apparently cost the life of the man they were seeking to free.
 Had they waited a second, the body of one of the officers would have shielded Nash from the fire.
 Some held the theory that tho outlaws were wreaking vengeance on the officers, while others believ- ed that Nash might have been marked for execution by the un- derworld because of failure to live up to its code.

 There was little evidence of panic, however, she said. Almost everyone ran or walked hastily in to the station. There was no shov- ing at the dors although the crowd on the sidewalk was large. Multiple doors across a wide stretch of foyer permitting quick entrance, may have saved some lives, she said, since windows on the face of the station were broken by random shots.

 The reduction would become ef- fective next November l, under plans of railroad executives, and would make net 22h per cent decrease in basic scales since rail workers alread have accepted a 10 per cent.
