WHERE WILT ALL END?

Reading in the reports that the federal
government is moving rapidly to pour a half bill
lion: dollars into the drouth-stricken area in the
West, and that some spokesman for that region
are insisting that it will take twice that amount
TO take of the situation, one is compelled Ia
wonder what would have happened to the drouti
sufferers few years ago before the responsibility
was fixed on Washington to come to the rescue
when anything goes wrong locally.
Under the conditions that now exist there has
been question, of course, that the federal gov
ernment would have to look after the drouth re-
gion. Nor has there been any question that the
expenditure would run into the hundreds of nal
lions. Three or four years ago congress debated
at length proposed appropriation of ten or fifteen
million dollars for similar purposes in Arkansas
and Kentucky. Now the only discussion aroused
by plans for expanding FIVE hundred million dol
lars in special drouth relief has to do with whether
FIVE hundred millions will be sufficient.
The drouth is very severe one. That is evil
dent But the fact that every such visitation has
come to mean fresh and ever heavier call upon
the federal treasury is potentially more disturbing
than any drouth-Asheville Times.

RECEPTION OF BANK ROBBERS

The reception given the bandit gang which raid
ed the bank in the little Dutch town of South Hol-
land, ILL.,, is the sort of reception which will do
most to put check on that sort of business e.
Three of the gangsters were shot down in their
tracks, just as they would have shot down anybody
who happened to get in their way, but before they
had chance to do any shooting or get their hands
on the money they came to steal. r'

NOPE THAN MONEY VALUE

Business men and fnanciers often sheer when

A preacher said in a recent Sunday sermon that
"'the only way for business to get out of the red
is to give values that are more than money and
receive pay that is not of the market place"
There isn't much doubt that most of the people
who are accustomed to thinking in dollars and
goods and labor will pass this off as mere words
which don't mean nothin'." g,
~ But after ALL ISN'T it just possible there is some
thing more required in successful business rela-

We have tried the scheme of getting "all the
traffic will bear" for goods and our services,
making certain as far as we are able that no one
gets something for which he does not give market
value in return. And the result has been far from
satisfactory. ,t"l. .'
The preacher, of course, was trying to put across

THE POLK COUNTY INCIDENT

According to reports from the little mountain
county of Polk the absentee" ballot is an insti-
tuition of unbounded popularity among the voters
up there, who seem to have used it regardless of
any consideration for the tally sheet So the CON-
plant of the folks is that in some precincts the
absentee ballot accounted fer an overflow of
voters, and Judge Finley has issued seizure or
ders The ballot Of the entire county is to be held
in soak until investigation can be made to
establish the extent of the Irregularities that

The Polk county ineident will serve to rivet at
tentfon on the opportunities offered for fraud in
the existing law and may serve to, bring about
the desired legislation tending to work to an hon

advantage of few people in legitimate wa,
but as matter of fact the situation which called
for its enactment has long since disappeared and
the call is for revision of the law in manner that

SUNDAY ISSUE IS NOT POLITICAL

The "open Sunday" issue is not party
fight 1t is not Democrats against Repub-
licans or the other way around. The issue
is non-partisan, and it is to be hoped that
the voters of Hendersonville will put aside
party badges when they go to the polls
tomorrow to ballot on this question.
Let the issue be decided on its merits.
Neither party should attempt to play poll
tics with the question. 1t is fundamentally
too important to be made a political foot
ball. Regardless of party politics every
honest voter should go to the polls and
vote his or her sincere convictions on this
issue, and, again we urge all to vote. Don't
dodge the issue; don't stay at home or in
your place of business and refuse to vote
when an issue involving the welfare. OF
your community is being voted on.
Let US have tomorrow free and fair
expression of the views of the voters OF
Hendersonville as to what they desire 20
have done about Sunday movies, baseball
and, perhaps, other Sunday arnusements-
for a reading of the proposed ordinance
will disclose that its adoption would not
prevent other Sunday amusements, be-
tween certain hours, except three which
are named in the ordinance.

A man who was intending to

approached by a young fellow

Bring around a load" said the

When the wood arrived an eX-
