Golf Course Relief
Map Attracting
Many Spectators
Local Men and Two Firms
Contribute to Making
Model of Course

A "relief map" of Henderson
ville's Donald Ross golf course
continued to attract the attention
of tourists and home folk at head
quarters of the Chamber of Com
merce.
The "map" is in reality a min
iature reproduction of the course,
and was expertly made of beaver
board, plaster of paris, paints and
other materials. 1t is about 81
inches square and shows fairways,
green's, wooded sections, lake
buildings, bunkers and traps and
other hazards, roadways and other
features. The table on which il
is mounted stands waist high, and
q card attached to one corner lists
the yardage of each of the IL
fairways, the total being 6,402.
The reproduction was roughed
in by R. S. Gibbs, engineer of the
Southern Public Utilities com
pany; Charles M. Cheves sawed
out the contour lines, and K. l
Lowndes finished and colored Il
in detail. Several days work was
required. Materials were sup
piled free by the Hendersonvlilt

.KIDNAP Note
TO FIRST LADY
BRINGS ARREST
Federal Agents Question
Man, Threatening to
Take Dali Children
| KNOWN In CHARLESTON
AS UNBAL ANCE D.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-(UP).
A former navy man was under
arrest here last night charged
with having threatened to kidnap
"Slstie" and "Buzzie" Dali, and
the infant daughter Of Elliott
Roosevelt - grandchildren Of
President Roosevelt-in the first
kidnap threat ever directed
against the nations first family.
The prisoner, Benjamin Frank
lin Warn, 33, of Charleston, S.
c.. was alleged to have threaten
ed bodily harm to President
Roosevelt unless he was paid
$16S,0OO in bills of denomina-
tions ranging from 81 to $50.
He was held incommunicado by
police and secret service opera
tives.
Federal agents guarded the
Dali children, Eleanor Ann, 7,
and Curtis, 4, at a Bayshore, L..
l.. estate.
The ransom note was signed
"Order of Zangara," recalling
Giuseppe Zangara, diminutive
bricklayer executed in Florida
for attempting to assassinate Mr..
Roosevelt, then lpresident-elect,
and killing Mayor Anton Ger
mack of Chicago.
At Hyde Park, where President
and Mrs. Roosevelt are resting,
it was said that they knew moth
ing of the kidnap threat, which
was sent by mail to the White
House in Washington.
1t appeared that the presidents
secretarial staff intercepted the
letter while the chief executive
was away, and handed it over to
the secret service.
Johnny Broderick, ace detec-
tive of Broadway, and one of the
most famous policemen in the
western world, was credited with
the arrest of Warn. Police and
secret service operatives, how
ever, refused to discuss details
of the arrest.
"Sitsie' and "Ruzzie," who be-
came two of the most famous
children in the country when
their grandfather took them and

HOLD DEPUTY
shot SHERIFF
BalIistics Experts Claim
Outlaw Did Not Kill
Federal Officer

STATESVILLE, Aug. 81
(UP).-Sheriff Godfrey Kimball
of Iredell county, was killed by
a bullet from a pistol held by
Deputy Sheriff Ralph Gilbert,
rather than from the gun OF
Ralph Davis, outlaw, ballistic ex-
perts decided yesterday.
The sheriff was shot to death
when he and other officers were
engaging in battle with DAVIS
here about two weeks ago.
Lieutenant J. H. Fowler of the
Metropolitan police department
Washington, D. c., and j. b.
Earle of the bureau of identifi-
cation at Charlotte. were the in
vestigating experts.
Despite the balistic report. So
licitor Zeb Vance Long was ex-
pected to charge Davis with
first degree murder. The des-
perado was being held on death
row at states prison, Raleigh.
Police seemed of the opinion
that Gilbert shot Kimball acct
dentally, if at all. Gilbert, who
remained in a local hospital be-
cause of wounds suffered in the
shooting. was deputized by Kim
ball four years ago.

0rchestra's End Appear
ance Under SPRINGFIELD
Greatly Enjoyed

The North Carolina Symphony
orchestra, Lamar SPRINGFIELD con-
Quoting, first heard in Henderson
vile some three weeks ago,
played a second. and equally in
teresting performance Thursday
night at the high school audito-
rum before an audience which,
though rot quite as large as on
it's premier here, was warmly APP
preciative of the almost wholly
classical program offered.
The program was one of high
est excellence, opening with the
Impresario Overture by Mozart,
which was followed by the Fifth
Beethoven symphony, in C minor.
Following the intermission Men
delssohn's Mcclure from the Mid
summer Nights Dream music,
Old Joe Clark Steps Out, by Var
dell, and Danse Barbara, from
Donaldson's SOngo Sketches were
offered as a group of three, and
the program concluded with ST.
belius' Finlandia.
The G Minor Symphony was
beautifully rendered. The An
dante was especially effective and
the robust tenderness of the
Scherzo came in delightful con-
trast to the stable and dignitied
Interpretation of the Andante.
Midsummer Nights Dream mu-
sic. always popular, has no more
melodious passages than are to be
found in the Nocturne, with its
almost hymn-like opening in the
massage for horns, and in which
the French horn was especially
effective last night.
Old Joe Clark Steps Out was
given a painstaking and, one
might say. loving Interpretation
through Mr.. Stringfeld's direc-
ton. Not that he was not meticd-
Ions in the direction of the entire
program, but one felt that the
Southern atmosphere that it
breathes, is especially appealing
to him and the work, doubtless
heard by many for the first time,
was immensely enjoyed.
Danse Barbara holds something
very distinctive in orchestral col,
oring and the exotic rhythm and
weird harmonic sequences are
most intriguing.
"Finlandia," quoted notation
on the program states, seems to
set forth an impression of the
national spirit and life. The com
position, it says, records the I'M
pressions of an eXile's return

N, c, SYMPHONY SAYS RUSSIA
HEARD AGAIN LOOKS TO war
Senator Reynolds Tells
Kiwanians Activities
There Appalling

A picture of Soviet Russia,
with its area three times as large
as that of the United States, its
17S,000,000 people, its unhappy
people, and its progress under the
Soviet government, was drawn
here yesterday by United States
Senator Robert R. Reynolds in an
address before the Hendersonville
Kiwanis club and a large number
of guests.
Mr.. Reynolds spoke of the great
natural resources Of the nation
and declared that there was a
great future for the country, not
in the immediate future but at
such a time as the government
was radically changed and when
restraint upon religion was re-
moved.
He declared that on his recent
visit he was appalled, at the ire
mendous activity in the country.
He told of the activity at the port
of Leningrad, where the principal
exports, lumber, pulp, wood, hides
and cheap candies were being
loaded with most modern machin-
cry.
He declared that the people
seemed unhappy throughout the
country, but voiced the private
opinion that they were better off
than they were under the Czarls-
tic regime. He declared that ne
saw few automobiles in the coun-
try and that such seen were the
property of the government and

MACON, Ca, Aug. 81. (UPC
The Bibb Manufacturing Co... this
morning obtained 10 warrants
charging strikers who are picket
ing mill No. 1 with misdemeanors.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 81. (UP)
Confusion reigned today in the
textile industry which is threat
enirg the nation with the great
est industrial warfare since the
nineties.
The strike order calling a half
million workers from their ma
chimes, which was sent yesterday,
is followed by reports Of dissen-
sion from Maine to Alabama.
Thousands of workers disobeyed
the union orders by striking pre-
maturely. Others said they would
not strike. Some mill owners
closed their plants. Others in
tended to keep running, with
strikebreakers, if necessary.
First violence came at Macon,
Ga, where five persons are under
bond, including Tom Cobb, COM
pany guard, charged with striking
Carrie Webb, strike picket, with q
blackjack.
Relief Administrator Hopkins
said he would clamp the lid on
free food if the strikers tried to
take advantage Of him. g.
Secretary of Labor Perkins has
refused to say Immediately wheth-
err she considered the strike just
fed. If Miss Perkins says it is
unjustified no relief will be given
strikers, which union leaders say
would hamstring the lockout.
Hope of averting q nationwide
strike of 100000 cotton textile
workers Saturday night vanished
last night when strike confer
ence between Lloyd Garrison,
chairman of the National Labor
Relations board, and George A.
Sloan, head of the Cotton Textile
Institute, collapsed.
Sloan came from New York es-
pecially for the parley. He con-
ferred with Garrison after the
latter held fruitless discussion
with Francis J. German, chairman
of the special strike committee.
German left saying "we can do
nothing until and If the industry
makes some definite concessions"
Sloan was in conference with
| Garrison for three hours. After
he left Garrison issued states
ment which said:
"There was a full discussion of
the strike situation and OF the
point of view of the industry, the
board having previously con-
ferred with the union committee.
Mr.. Sloan has returned to New
York. The board holds itself in
readiness at all times to meet
with any persons or groups IN
Ivolved in the controversy but can,
not report that any substantial
progress has been made toward
settling the strike" ~
