Mark Larkin, Mary Pickford's
personal press agent, insists that
quite unwittingly this department
did his star an injustice by stating
that her personal appearance en-
gagement in Philadelphia was
only a minor success.
In this particular case 1 de-
pended upon the Philadelphia
papers-and particularly Elsie
Finn-for first hand news which
is now termed inaccurate.
To prove his point Mr.. Larkln
appends the sworn attendance
figures for the Mary Plckforo
tour as filed in the box office
statements furnished the Govern
ment.
The statements, which must be
accurate or Uncle Sam will
spank, show that Americas
Sweetheart attracted the movie
fans as follows in the cities
listed:
New York city. ........ 125,435
Chicago 134,561
BOSTON .,,,,...... 141,678
Detroit ,.,.......... 138,921
The Washington times., 1934-06-04

The variance in the figures is
caused by the capacity of the
houses as the Philadelphia the
alter seats only $500 as compared
to the 1000 and better seatage Of
the houses in the four other cities.
I trust this record of fine bust
ness sets the matter straight and
my only regret is that she didn't
test her popularity in washing
ton. The $4,000 and percentage

any local theater cared to as
sumo.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
RELIEF FROM RELIEF

Though President Roosevelt sternly denounces
and renounces the idea of permanent class Of
UNEMPLOYED persons in the United States 1t IS oo-
v;oos TO any observing person that we are not
only, threatened with such class but have been
doliberatelv educating some thousands of shftle3s
people to depend upon relief and to scorn the idea
of laboring for a living.
Cleveland county has fortunately escaped this
threat because relief was administered shrewdly
and where it would do the most good We are
second from the bottom of the state list IN num-
her OF persons on relief This is true not entirely
because we are more prosperous county, but be-
cause we have beeen careful to give relief only
where, after careful investigation, found it was
honestly needed.
Now, there is a movement to ask the state legls-
lature to appropriate between S2,5OO,OOO and 3d.
700 to supplement federal relief in North
Carolina.
1t is our conviction that if all relief money were
stopped. at least half of the persons receiving it
would have become self-supporting within a month
1t is our conviction that the more direct charity
teven in the form of trifling work. that is ac-
corded the more charity cases will be created.
After all, there are many citizens of no strong
er will power than to philosophize thusly: "Well,
if Bill Jones can get the government to support
him without working, why don't I do it?'
And many a family has decided to do just that.
While we have doubtless saved many thousands
of lives through relief agencies, we are always
running the risk at the same time we feed mans
body, of running his brains and his soul.
It's high time we had some relief from relief

WHERE THE MONEY GOES

The Yorkville Enquirer in its last issue gives
some interesting figures as to the gasoline con-
sumed by motorists of York county during the
past twelve months The newspaper says automo-
bile owners spent two and one-half million dollars
for gas.
Which would be about double the value of the
cotton crop of that prosperous South Carolina
community for the past year
We talk about hard times. There are no hard
times when people can and do spend more than
they make. Hard times are just around the cor
ner.-Monroe Enquirer.

JOHNSON is RIGHT

On the day he stepped out as NRA director,
Hugh S. Johnson issued the warning that 90
hour week would ruin America and we believe
he's right.
In the first place 80 hours is not enough for a
person in the average industry to work, and in
the second place such program would send prices
so high that most industries would suffer from
lack of orders.
There are few industries perhaps, that
shouldn't work men more than 80 hours week
due to the character of their work, but the rank
and file of workers can stand and need to have
more than six hours day for five days week.
We don't believe statistics will show that many
persons ever died from overwork, anyhow
The shorter week is no panacea for unemploy-
ment and We believe the experiment would prove
Just as harmful as General Johnson predicts.-The
Concord Tribune. .... a.

MORE ARGUMENT, LESS oRAToRY NEEDED

The IVA is proud of the enemies it has made
and is especially delighted to have itself fought
by the Tories of New York and Chicago "that al
ways fight every move to give the average man a
chance" says Mr.. 'Lienthal, who is the director
of this experiment" '.'
Of course, such a remark will make the hats
come off the heads of those who may for the mo-
ment be impressed by such oratorcal comparisons
and especially by which happy reference to what
the iva proposes to do for the underdogs.
The point, however, that concerns this country
in the iva development and experiment which
Mr.. Lenthal significantly omits has to do with
the principle behind this improvisation.
And that principle is no more casual than that
upon which this republic set out to make itself
the principle that private initiative and private
business should not have the federal government
to compete with, but to cooperate with in such
legitimate undertakings as they Nigh tapply them
selves to.
Those of US who insist that the original was
democracy are more concerned now as to what
becomes Of this inherent and age-old principle of
Americanism than with the prejudices and passions
that might be politically aroused over this expert
ment-Charlotte Observer.

UNCLE SANS EXPENSE ACCOUNT

The cost of the federal government to
the tax payers of the United States in 1916
amounted to 1.6 per cent of the national
income. In 1884, for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1884, the cost of maintaining the
federal government amounted to ia per
cent of the national income. For the last
named twelve months period the cost of
maintaining the federal government was
considerably more than seven billion dol
lars.
What is the matter with this country?
What is hating and stagnating business,
creating unemployment and increasing the
relief rolls? One thing is the mountain of
federal taxation which is being piled on
business and industry and all other classes
of tax-paying assets of the country. Intel
ngent citizens realize that the United
States cannot carry this load and prosper.
They know that industry and general bust
ness are being taxed into bankruptcy by
the central government. 5"
Those who want to know why the coun-
try's business does not speed up, why nor.
NAL conditions are not restored, can find a
large section of the correct answer in the
federal governments foolish, wasteful, ex
travagant experiments and schemes which
have piled up an expense account thai
drains from the tax payers more than
sixth of the country's total income.
On the basis OF, percentage of taxation
to income the federal governments ex
pense account has multiplied nearly clever
times since the year 1916.

the Salt River Valley lies the
struggle of valley truck garden
ers to maintain their hold on the
rich produce markets of the Mid

Resentment against the Japanese

from the fear that japanese and

Officials Of the Anti-Alien Asso-

japanese are a large factor in the
produce business of California
and express open determination
to prevent their encroachment on

To offset the japanese advance,
they have turned to the boycott

~'ffe contributed in a most earnest and eff
fective way of the best of his capacity in

= DR.. Allen will be missed from the ranks
: of the friends of education in North Caro-
3 lima, especially among the friends of the
: public schools; but worthy successor has
: been appointed by Governor Ehringhaus
1 to fill the unexpired term of the late Su-
: perintendent, which extends to 1886.
- County Superintendent Clyde Erwin Of
Rutherford county was the choice of teach
ers and the most progressive friends of
the school system in Henderson county.
He is trusted and admired by a host of
friends here, who believe that his common
sense and sound judgment, his experience,
knowledge and energy, devoted to the
schools in the fullest measure, will enable
him to render great service to the State
in the years to come.
Superintendent Erwin is young man.
He can reasonably expect many more
years of opportunity for labor and leader

in North Carolina. His appointment to the
position of State Superintendent meets
with general approval in this section of the

DOES YOURS GLOW?

Too Much Buck Passing

Too Much Buck Passing
In November the voters of
Nebraska are going to decide
whether or not they will change
the set-up Of their legislature
from two bodies to one.
There is no logical reason for
having a state legislature COM
posed of an upper hause and a
lower house; that set-up merely
confuses the issue, consumes time
and multiplies expense; it en-
courages the trading of votes be-
tween members of the two
houses. "You help me to get my
bill through the Senate" says a
representative to a senator, land
III help you get your bill through
the House." It irritates Justice
and exasperates Efficiency. The
one-house legislature would do
away with the time-honored trick
so common among legislators, Of
introducing any kind of ont
rageous bill into one house, Just
to please a friend or a faction,
knowing full well that the other
house will kill the bill.
