 A banquet will be held on Satur- day, November by the Italo- Mar chegiano club of Naugatuck. It will take place in Pastime hall and invitations will be extended to Warden Sheridan, Harris Whitte- more, Jr, and other we'll known residents.
 Tax Enumerators
 The newly appointed personal tax enumerators were busy to-day, beginning their work of compiling the list of those residents here between the ages of 21 and 60. Such persons are required to pay personal taxes in February. Per sonal Tax Collector James Bren- nan will use this list in billing local residents. Because of the variation in residents, it is neces- sary to make this census each year.
 Warden John Sheridan has ap- pointed four enumerators this year instead of three last year. They are John O'Toole, George Fellows, Joseph Mulesky and Daniel Callahan. They have each been given route numbered routes one, two, three and four, respectively. MT O'Toole's route for instance comprises the major part of the second ward. The third and first wards are split up among the enumerators.

''Y'S" MEMBERSHIP DRIVE PROGRESSES
Preliminary Reports to Be Submitted Tonight; Leaders to Speak

Preliminary reports collected from all captains indicate that the teams have met with the best suc- cess in several years on the YMCA membership drive and that the re- port tonight will break last years
 record by a large number of mefn-
 bers. The goal set for the drive is 1,400 members secured by next Wednesday, October IT.
 The splendid start of Tuesday
 night, the enthusiasm, the good at- tendance and the inspiration of the drive leaders started the workers off on their task with a splendid momentum.
 When the reports are given to- night at the dinner at 6:15, Gen. erals Carmody and Templeton of the Blue and Red armies respec- | lively will total their scores to see which army wears the colored der-
 by of victory for the evening. A box of chocolates will be ] awarded each member of the high team tonight and several ambitious groups are challenging last year, s | winners, the Lions club, which is | hard at work under the leadership
 of the Lions president, James A. PheIan.
 One of the features of the ban quet this evening will be a short talk on Founders Day" which is
 being observed throughout the country by YMCA's. It is the birth- day of Sir George Williams, found- CT of the Young Mems Christian association and a membership en. rollment supper is a fitting occa-
 sion for a few words regarding the
 organization for which the men are
 so Loyalty working.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
AUTUMN IN THE HILLS

A new movement in New England is to capital
ize on her Autumn scenery, when the touch Of
Fall is seen on the foliage. The promoters have
actually established bulletin advising the public
as to progress of the eoloring. In the mountains
Of North Carolina we need no such bulletin, for
our hills and valleys proclaim the event from the
first frost until the Winter winds have stripped
the trees-and that is date approaching the
Spring season, for our trees are. of the sturdy
character and hold their leaves with a firm grip.
In no part of the world is the Autumn season
more beautiful than the North Carolina mountains
and it is an established habit of our people to
journey to the mountains especially to see the
marvellous beauty of the Autumn leaves. Climatic
conditions here also make the colorings more bril-
liant Artist after artist has located in the midst
of this ravishing Autumn beauty in an effort to
transfer it to canvas, but all have given up in
despair, The only way the real beauty of our
mountains in Autumn can be realized is to go up
there and see it. 1t is not only beyond the skill
of the, artist, but no writer has been born who
can tell about it in adequate fashion.-Charlotte
Observer.

of Jobs provided by NRA'S reduction Of

COMPARATIVELY small. This object lesson

that no permanent restoration of normal

possible for around one-half the eeuntry's

equally impossible for domestic help and
many other workers. If it be made by law
to apply only. to workers in industry, it
will increase the prices OF manufactured
goods to such an extent that the demand
for them will be decreased and fewer
workers will be needed in. industry. With
the thirty hour week established for indus
try we would have the spectacle of indus
trial laborers working one-fourth of the
time, while large majority of citizens
worked two or three times six hours a
day; and the majority, probably with no
increase of incomes, would be expected to
pay fancy prices for the products of the
factories to keep the industrial labor aris-
toeracy living in accustomed style. -

CAMPAIGN PROMISES
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

them work things out to the best
advantage for the people.
When a man runs for office
promising to accomplish this little
detail and that little detail, he is
agreeing to allow thoughtless, UNI
informed voters with no possible
knowledge Of circumstances that
may arise, to run his office for
him. He may be promising to do
something which looks all right at
the time he makes the promise,
but which later on he may find
that he can not and should not do.
Suppose a man runs for the Of
fee of mayor, promising that if
elected ne will build a boulevard
from such a place to such place,
with such and such a fund; then
a week after being sworn into of
flee, an epidemic or some other
emergency requires the spending
Of that fund in another direction.
Suppose a man runs for office
promising to support, or to fight
the sales tax; then after his cleo
ton. conditions change so radi-
cally that he should not do what
he promised to do about the sales
tax.
There is no human being with
brains enough to foresee what will
happen, or to prophesy intelligent
ly what the picture will be in a
month. A man who has not the
ability to go into public office and
deal properly with each question
as he meets it, is not fit to hold
office. If the only way he can get
into office is by a lot of promises
based on wild guesses, then he
should stay out of office.
The only kind of promise a po-
litical candidate should ever make
is that he will do his duty, that he
will apply his best thought and eff
fort to each question that con-
fronts him and that he will collect
from every possible source the
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1934-10-11

best sincere thoughts of others.
But to make rash promises before
even getting into office and learn
ing conditions, is sheer dema-
goguery and should be so recog-
nized and so treated by the voters.
We should not vote for man
in whom we have not sufficient
confidence to trust his judgment
and integrity after he has been
elected.
The young man whose case in
PRODUCES this article would have
found himself in a stronger,
sounder position had he merely
promised to do everything within
his power for the safety, comfort
and enjoyment of his wife, and of
the children, when, if, and as they
arrived.

The young man made an error
in promising to do lot of things

His wife has at intervals thru

The principle back of campaign

a lot of vote-getting bunk.
The political candidate who goes
before the public promising spe-
officially to do this and specifically
to do that, is as rule, demon
strating his unfitness for office.
The man who runs for a gov

The Honorable Judge Warlick,
who is holding the present term
Of superior court, has captivated
the mountain people. He has the
charming personality, warmth of
heart, and deep understanding of
human nature that it takes to win
the affection of the mountaineers,
who are followers of Andrew
Jackson and who appreciate real
manhood, backbone and true JUS
tice. Such was only shown by
Thomas jefferson and the Good
Samaritan.
The mountain citizenry have

last into their midst has come a
leader of their liking-one with
warmth of heart, understanding,
who metes out justice with a
smile, who carries in his hands the
scales that weigh out to the poor
with the same degree that justice
is melted out to wealth and affu-
ence. In this time of tribulation
and for the next four years that
will follow, the mountain people
realize that in Judge Warlick they
have a friend upon whom they
can trust. Judge Warlick, like a
