HUMAN RIGHTS
Ry WICKES WAMBOLDT-

the criminal not had the cash, he
would have been obliged to suf-
fer the penalty required by law.
The foregoing enumerated
items have no particular bearing
on the point I am going to make.
They popped into my head as
was debating and struck me as
interesting sidelights, so they are
put in for any value they might
be to you.
Here is what l would empha-
size: The other day l saw a Judge
refuse to grant a creditor GER
tain power over a debtor because
the judge believed and said that
to comply with the editors de-
mand would work too great a
hardship on the debtor. That is a
fine attitude on the part of the
court, for it shows that the ju-
dietary is taking a broader, more
humane attitude toward human
lights a scontrastei with property
Men should pay their bills; wo-
men too. We should not buy more
than we can pay for or obligate
ourselves for more than we can
pay. But the seller should have
some responsibility also namely:
to use reasonable intelligence and
caution to see to it that no obi
cation is incurred beyond the
power CT the one or the ones as
Stunning the obligation, to dis
charge such obligation.
1t should be the social duty of
a bond house not to market mu-
nicipal bond issue which is plainly
beyond the ability of the munich
pality to pay. 1t would not be a
bad idea to have law that would
thrust into the penitentiary bond
brokers and public officials who
conspire together to sell munich
pal securities that are not secure.
The blue sky law should apply
vigorously to all crooked selling
schemes.
Property rights should be pro-
tected, but not at too great a
cost to human rights. The right
to live is sacred right. When
the enforcement of property
rights would deny a person or a
community the right to live, then
a power, a principle higher than
property rights should be gravely
considered.
1t is a bright sign of a kinder

MORE THAN TEN PER CENT ON RELIEF


Mrs Thomas O'Berry, state relief administrator
reports that 1O8 per cent of North Carolinas pop
ulation received aid during the month of Septem-
Der past.
Union countys percentage was S.s, and that
when almost everybody could have secured en-
ployment had they been minded.
Some counties, notably those of the tide water
sections, showed that almost one-third of the
population were being fed at the expense of the
government.
Union county used $10,245.93 of government
funds during September to hand out mostly to
those who could have gotten along very well with
out it.
In the entire state total of 346,759 persons
received some form of relief last August, while
the number on rolls during September was only
333,21O. In August there were 72,1S7 families on
relief as compared with 69,022 in September.
The decline in the number of cases during Sep
TENDER is attributed to the recent order sent out
by Mrs O'Berry disseminating all direct and work
relief in rural counties.-Monroe Enquirer.

the million to buy himself a

not so canny, steals hog and
goes to prison. He is put in jail,

8. A reckless automobile driver
smashes up another car. Under

but he says to the owner of the
smashed car, "I'll fix this up with
you if you won't prosecute me-"
So the owner of the damaged car
refuses to bring charges. Another
reckless driver tears up some
body's car, but he has no money
with which to appease the wrath
of the owner of the torn-up car,
so he is arrested and goes to jail

WASHINGTON. - With (elections

ceiling in which hardly anybody
will be criticizing the New Deal.

t has hoped so long in vain.
Bankers and industrialists have
,een told they might as we'll get
;oing after election, that what
they've really been suffering from
s a simple case of old-fashioned
election year filters, and that the
New Deal has long since paved
The way for the big push.
1t has been limited to them that

publican anvil chorus, even If only
from force OF habit, but that the
occasion for that is all over now.
The White House hopes are
shared only mildly by many New
Dealers. But there's a wide feel
ing that more cooperation and
less obstruction are to be expected.
ROOSEVELT, Richberg, and 9TH

Either industry or government is
going to put the unemployed to

LET us GO FORWARD

Only half of the county candfoaIeS III
todav,s election will be successful, as the
number is confined to one candidate 1or
each office in the two political parties.
One-half of the candidates will be defeat
ed and one-half will be elected. The can
didates of both political parties, those VINO
tomorrow will be numbered with the VIC
TORS and those who will be listed among
the defeated, are our fellow citizens, our
neipbbors and friends. Let us not forget
this fact, as the results are considered, to-
morrow and in the future; and let us re-
solve. when the votes have been counted
and the results determined, that we Will
continue to be good neighbOrS and friends,
as we live here in Henderson county and
strive to promote the public welfare and
upbullding of this section.
There has been little of bitterness and
strife in the campaign which is closing to-
day. in comparison with many political
contests of the past, and that is something
for which all the people may be truly
thankful. 1t is a condition of encourage
ment to good citizens. May it be the be-
ginning of an era in which public matters
and political issues will be dispassiOnately
considered and settled by the voters in a
spirit of reasonableness and fairness to all
and -according to the rules of righteous
nesSan era in which ignorance and prejr-
dicegwill be superseded by intelligent
.stu6yrof issues by the voters, and in which
every ballot cast on election day will be
the expression of the honest convictions OF
the voter, who shall have nothing in view
save the welfare of his county and State
and nation.
Tomorrow, with the election behind us,
we Will be confronted in this town and
section with the same public problems, the
same social and economic problems, the
same difficulties that confront us as indi-
viduals, today, and which troubled us be-
fore the election. Each individual will have
the same personal problems to consider
and solve. The only thing settled by the
election is the matter of the men who are
to fill the offices.
In the light of the facts, the bare, stark
realities of the conditions which confront
us, let us resolve here in Hendersonville
and Henderson county to cooperate and
combine our efforts for the future welfare
and advancement of our town and county.
Let US get together in a spirit of friend
ship and helpfulness to improve our eco
nomic, social and moral conditions. There
is room for improvement in every direc-
tom Conditions today are far from salts
faeteryS but the good citizens of the coun-
ty, who are majority of the people, can
make the town and county what they will.
Tomorrow, let US say: Forgetting the
things which are behind, let us press for
ward to possess those better things and to
achieve those higher and nobler aims
which are, after all, the beckoning hands
the Future holds out to forward looking
and forward moving men and women.

tons annual convention In April.
At that time. the union voted to de-
mand recognition - the steel workers

With such recognition generally re-
fused by the steel operators, the con-
vention was called to decide upon .

call until oil other, efforts to reach

had been exhausted.
The other faction. the frank and

Of Duquesne. urged an immediate
walkout.
As the two factions apparently
cemented themselves behind Green,
they ended their special convention
late Friday night, after two days Of
discussions, speeches, proposals and

Their last function was adoption Of

workers were opposed to strike.
