constitutional government
Now, the fact is that cotton growers
throughout the belt have voluntarily signed
reduction agreements which amount to
more than the reduction proposed in what
Senator Bailey of this State calls the cot
ton slavery bill; and Senator Smiths
only reason for supporting the slavery,
bill is that he claims ten per cent. of the
growers either will not voluntarily reduce
their cotton production, or If they agree
to do so will not carry out their contracts.
Senator Bailey does not believe that is
a good and sufficient reason for delivering
the cotton growers into Communistic slav-
erv and he denounced the bill in no uncer-
tain terms in the Senate, Monday. Senator
Railev charged that the bill is slavery
Hip and that it's enactment or rejection
means the country is choosing between a
''free republic and regimented Socialism
or Communism.
Senator Bailey was ably supported by
Senator Borah, who challenged the consul
+utionalitv of the bill; and said that While
his constituents grow no cotton and nave
NO direct interest in the bill such as the
cotton growers have, he regards it as mere
" the entering wedge for government con-
troll of all agricultural production, along
Collectivist lines, and this would include
the wheat and corn and cattle growers OF
other sections of the United States.
A significant incident of the Senate de-
bate which was precipitated by the attacks
of Senators Bailey and Borah on the cot
ton measure, was the statement by Sem
ator Lewis, Democratic leader, that the
Senate should support President Roosevelt
whether the President is right or wrong.
This Senator Lewis is James Hamilton
of Illinois. Has it ever occurred to the gen.
tleman from Illinois that the stamp Oh ao-
solute unfitness to hold his high position
is placed upon any man who holds tnat
the President should be supported IN a
position that is wrong, especially in taking
action that would violate the Constitution
of the United States and result in the en-
actment of law that is as un-Amercah

THE COTTON SLAVERY BILL

What a spectacle is presented by Sena-
tor Ed Smith of South Carolina leading
the fight in Congress to enact law that
will place the necks of all the cotton grow
ers of the South under the Communistic
yokel Senator Smith, who is known as
Cotton Ed'', because for thirty years IN
the Senate he has claimed to be fighting
the battles of the cotton growers, and
now boasts that he is the only 'dirt farm
er" serving in that body! The Senator's
position is sickening but Illuminating
picture of the mental condition of most of
the representative of the people" who
compose the present rubber stamp Con-

that abdication a large majority of the

been pressing Communism to their bosoms

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE EDITION
OF THE TIMES-NEWS

Cooperating with the Chamber of Com
merce, The Times-News sends out today
the fifth annual edition of this newspaper
published for the purpose of making
known to the outside world facts about this
city and section, the natural advantages,
industrial, commercial and tourist business
of the region.
This issue consists of three sections and
readers are requested to see that they get
the entire paper.
The Chamber of Commerce edition IS
filled with special articles and information
in various forms about Hendersonville, the
county and surrounding country, and Wes-
tern North Carolina and the State as a
whole; but, no effort has been made to
present State or Western North Carolina
edition, as the chief purpose is to adver-
tise this city and its territory.
Scores of industries and businesses, no.
tells, camps, boarding houses and other en-
terprises of the region are represented in
the advertising columns of the paper. The
Times-News not only urges regular read
ers of the paper to patronize the adver-
tisers who have made the publishing of
this paper possible, but urges all tourists
and summer residents into whose hands
the paper may came, that they, too, give
attention to these announcements and
when they visit Hendersonville and this
section that they visit and patronize these
representative enterprises of the region.
Many copies of this issue of The Times
News are to be distributed in the several
States from which comes the greater part
of the summer business of the city and
section. To summer residents and former
visitors, The Times-News, speaking for all
the people of this section, assures them
that the old and well-known Henderson
Vile welcome is awaiting them for the sea-
son of 1884.
To strangers we say: Come and see! We
who know so we'll what the city and section
have to offer the tourist, the summer resi-
dent, or those who come to make all-the-
year homes here, believe that is the best
way to get acquainted with this most at
tractive and satisfying section of Western
North Carolina. AS a rule, those who come
and see, acknowledge that the half has not
been told
So the invitation, as warm and cordial as
our people know how to make it, to sum-
mer residents, our old friends, and all
strangers who may come, is extended for
the spring and summer season of 1884!

s'Mv son is now ready for vocational guidance
Will YOU please send him some?' That request
from, a mother was recently received by man
who is graduate of a school of education IN a
large university, and who has been very successful
in the field of vocational guidance.
In essence, Senator George has said to Congress-
in a bill which he has introduced to provide Tor
the further development of vocational education
thousands of boys and girls in the United States
are now ready for vocational guidance Will you
please send him some?"
The bill would appropriate $3,75O,0OO annually
for vocational education purposes. This amount TO
be divided equally among agriculture, home eco
Monies, and trade and industry. 1t would mean
the continuation of funds which will stop when
the George-Reed Act of 1921 automatically ceases
on June 80, 1884 The amount of money available
under the new bill, if it is passed without change,
would be considerably more than under the former
one.
A recent study of why workers have lost their
jobs has resulted in the discovery that one-thrd
of the dismissas, exclusive of those due to indus
trial economic conditions were because of lack OF
skill, while two-thirds were directly traceable to
wrong attitudes toward their work.
In most cases these attitudes revealed desire
to arrive without travelling; to attain without srV-
ing. They were the attitudes expressed by some
high school pupils in their replies to the question:
''What do you want to do when you are through
school - One boy said that he wanted to be re-
tired business man, and girl expressed the desire
to be wealthy widow.
Vocational education has been defined as, first,
ascertaning persons skill, or aptitude, for some
particular line of work. second, developing techni-
cal knowledge to guide that SKILL third and by far
the most important, directing the person toward
correct attitudes in all his relations in home school
and business.
Whatever the sum finally appropriated by Con-
gress for vocational education, that part of it
which is directed into channels that will guide
young people in living life will be much more
fruitful than that which teaches them merely how
to earn lving.-Chrstian Science Monitor.

Dear Miss Shelby:
There are times when, SEEM
ingly for no reason, my skin
becomes flushed and blotchy. I
cannot understand this condi-
ton and 1 would appreciate
your help.
Sincerely,
E. H.
Dear Mrs. E. H.:
The flushed condition of your
skin may be a sign of faulty
circulation, a congestion Of blood
in the skin. Sometimes this
is aggravated by certain foods.
In this case it is wise to avoid
stimulants and condiments: go
without sweets and eat lightly
Of starchy or rich dishes.
To improve the appearance of
your flushed skin, use a liquid
powder as a powder base, or a
rather heavy foundation cream.
Choose your foundation ana
powder in a rachel, tan or beige
shade, which is slightly yellow
ish. Avoid a cream or powder in
pinkiSh, orchid or peach tones,
which increases the flushed ap-
pearance of your skin.

to YOU!
What can I say that will be
sincere and sound-that will
help that gnawing need which
goes on and on, under the
laughter and excitement, the
trantrums and tears?
I know what that need is.
I've been poor, too, out of work,
frightened, furious. I've stood
on a street corner and watched
rich, comfortable, complacent
people strut by. and thought
of my sick boy. and tasted
bitterness like salt along my
lips. I've slept on park benches
and the baked earth of deserts,
not knowing what the next day
would bring. I know that gnaw-
ing need for some answer
some hope. But what can I
say?
Something funny? Some
thing pretty? Funny words
and pretty words are an insult
to desperate people. Even the
LATEST. dumbest, most indiffer-
ent of those Faces knows that
he needs something more than
that. Something more real than
words. deeper than wisecracks.
Something strong and clean
and true to which a frightened
person can cling-believe in
work for. Something that
wage cuts and strikes and riots
can't destroy. But what? What
can any of us hold to these
days?
That's a terrible question.
Those Faces are all asking it.
You're asking it-I'm asking it.

Coarse Pores Ranished

coarse FOEeS bSnASne0
Dear Miss Shelby:
Please tell me how to care for
large pores on the nose and
deep lines around the eyes.
Please help me.
Sincerely, j. M.
Dear Miss j. M:
Large pores around the nose
may be corrected by careful
cleasing, plenty Of cold water,
mild astringents, correct diet
and enough exercise.
For lines under the eyes,
avoid eye strain, get more rest
and sleep, and more outdoor ex-
erciSe, which stimulates circula-
ton, feeds the tissues and helps
firm them. At night, smooth a
good cream around the eyes,
beginning at the upper, inner
corners, describing a circle.
Use a good nourishing cream,
an eye tissue cream or toilet
lanolin. Put the cream on
lightly. Whenever convenient
use congresses of cotton wrung
from cold water and drenched
with witch hazel, cold tea or
soothing lotion over the eyes.
This is soothing and helps
soften the lines.
