Where the New Deal is heading
is being disclosed more easily from
~~ to day. zoe" Eastman's pro-
gram for the naturalization of the
entire railroad system was hardly a
~bombshell, for the Federal Coordi-
nator Of Railroads has long been
known as advocate Of Government
ownership. What was surprising
about, the plan which he submitted
to the President and Congress was
not only his well-considered state
ment that the time is not yet ripe
for financing his play, so it was
merely offered as something to
think about tor 4 yea or two, but
also the provisions which he said
were vital, making political control
and operation of the roads if and
when the Government takes them
over, impossible.
The Eastman plan, which is 60
ing to get more serious considera-
ton than any other railroad plan
vet discussed, would swap Govern
ment bonds for all railroad securi-
tiesB, set up a control board of
railroad men to run them, and eli
inmate all private interests, includ-
ing the names of existing systems

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
ADVERTISING AND PROGRESS

Advertising has proved itself to be the barome-
ter of progress.
Il has not been long since business advertising
vas as severely criticized and rdculed as boastng
of nersonal qualifications At the same time there
was as little faith in the claims of advertisements
nc in the claims of the braggart. Only the! quaek
and the imposter who had everything to gam ana
nothing to lose, then resorted to advertising.
Business is ever the standard bearer and apos-
tie of progress, and it was business when ms
covered that advertising was vital factor IN all
growth When advertising was admitted TO the
Preside of business it was not the big business OF
TODAY Big business traces its beginning with us
employment of advertising.
In its conversion to advertising, business was
soon followed by industry, commerce and the pro-
fessions The benefits of advertising had maze
themselves manifest in each step forward
That was the evolution of advertising, until TO-
day advertising plays part in every phase OF NE
and is the working instrument of all except the
doctor and the lawyer, who still consider 1T 'un-
ethicaP' to advertise for business. He may place
his "card" in the newspaper, but it is profess
sionaly forbidden for the doctor or the lawyer to
inform the public of his capabilities.
Nothing in life has attained perfection anu
evolution as an eternal, evre-contlnumg advance
ment. The evolution of advertising Will not stop
with it's adoption by medicine and Jurisprudence
but that adoption will establish another milestone
of progress.-Hickory Record.

NEED IS FELT FOR WHIPPING POST HERE

Just what ought to be done to fellow who re-
fuses to work when he can get work at far
compensation but refuses with result that some
phase of charity is made necessary in order to
keep his children from starving is problem that
faces Pennsylvania, or rather, what can be done
for such fellows.
If it were left up to this newspaper to mete
out just punishment and one we believe would
get results, we'd erect nice black gum or locust
post on the courthouse lawn, fasten there to set
of stainless steel bracelets and pair of anklets
of the same type metal, have Charlie Null over at
the Pennsylvania Tanning company turn out some
extra tough rawhide, and then have public party
and invite the fellow who refuses to work as
"guest of honor" .'
We know of several, not just one or two in
stances, in this county where men have been Of
fered S4S.O0 per month for work and the job
refused regardless of the fact that families of
those men live from week to week off the pittance
that is given them from the relief office in Bre-
ward.
We can't blame the relief office for giving food
to kids of fellows like those have in mind. The
poor kids can't help themselves; they are not to
blame for their fathers trifleness However, there
should be some remedy for father who is too
lazy to work, yet expects, and has the gall to de-
mand, in some instances, that his family's wants
be taken care of by the public. We know of no
better remedy than good lashng.-Transylvania

The campus of Brevard College

What do you think of this modern philosophy

He then explained that if boys are not restrained
in their youth the time will come when they grow
into criminals, often murderers, kidnapers first de-
gree burglars which crimes call for electrocuton.
1t shows that modern parents in great many
cases have failed miserably in so rearing their
children that they remain in the straight and

our jails and penitentiaries are being filled with
youthful white prisoners. As to whether our school

the amount of publicity the spec

copied throughout the country.
Persons with defective organs
wrote to the specialist from every
section of this nation asking to
have certain portions of the con-
