WASHINGTON, May 24.-Two
!. hundred members of the liberal pro-
fessions-editors, lawyers, educators,
ministers, doctors, and social work
erS, civic and industrial experts to-
day associated themselves with a
statement to the President, put be-
fore Mr.. Roosevelt at the White
House by a drafting committee,
which set forth an Acid Test of
the New Deal
Charging that forces of inertia,
reaction and selfish rapacity" are
warping and weakening the NRA,
the statement, which will appear in
The Nation of May 80, formulates a
series of immediate issues at stake
and calls for an aggressive counter
thrust by the administration that
will restore confidence among the
people"
In presenting his committee to
the President, the chairman, OS-
valid Garrison Willard, contributing
editor of The Nation, stated that
the group had asked for the inter-
view because of their great feeling
of anxiety over certain recent ten
denotes in the administration of
the MIRA"
Mr.. Willard pointed out that "the
increase of purchasing power is not
being attained, actually real wages
are in many cases lower under the
NRA than before d. the failure to
develop an efficient enforcement
machinery is so grave that many of
the the warmest friends Of NRA fear
that, like the prohibition amend
ment, it will perish through whole
sale disregard We believe that
the New Deal is in its gravest crises.
We have come to ask you to strike
and strike hard for its ideals"

Yet the woman's husband looks
as young today as he did ten
wears ago. He is complacent, self

suffered at all from the evil
workings Of his own mind.
In the foregoing situation, you
see what may happen when beauty
marries the beast. A woman of
spiritual development, woman
who has fine sensibilities, who
marries man of coarse and un-
spiritual makeup. may be COM

coming in contact with his low
life, is pulled down to his level.
In the destruction of her ideals,
her better self is destroyed-the
self that made her what she was.
Many a woman has been ami
hilated through being united with
an unworthy man. There never
was a greater fallacy than the
notion that the way for a woman
to reform man is to marry him.

That's splendid idea, but have my misdoubts
as to the sales resistance of certain of our older
merchants when pretty young thing comes along

And while I'm talking about advertising that

wants to publish Special edition. tellin' the

SEEKING CLEMENCY FOR
MACK RHODES

II is said that several thousand friends
of J. Mack Rhodes, former Hendersonville
banker now serving term in state prison,
will present their petition this week to the
authorities in Raleigh, seeking pardon
or parole for Mr. Rhodes. The Tlmes-NeWs
has not heard a great deal of discussion
locally in regard to this matter, but what
has come to this newspaper is favorable to
the side of clemency for Mack Rhodes.
No doubt the case that will be presented
to the officials in Mr.. Rhodes behalf Will
be as strong as any that has ever Oeen
presented in similar cases and his friends
are hoping that the plea will be effective
They point out that he has been a model
prisoner; that he has served the State eff
ficiently; that he has been punished as Sc
verely as man of his station in life can
be punished, regardless of the length Of
his term in prison; that he is growing old
and probably has but brief span of life
before him; that he will undoubtedly step
from the State prison into the world again
and make an honest and earnest effort TO
be the good citizen that he was before
misfortune overlook him These and many
other arguments will be advanced on be
half of a pardon or parole for Mack
Rhodes.
AS friend for a, number of years OF
]. Mack Rhodes and after long business
experience with him, The Times-News,
which is always slow to make pleas in
such cases, believes that this is a case in
which clemency can be safely extended
and that Governor Ehringlaus will not
have cause to regret any consideration
shown to Mack Rhodes.

TAXES AND INCOME

William Fortune, of Indiana, speaking for the
National Chamber of Commerce, asserts that based
on national income of forty-fve billion dollars
this year, twenty per cent of that vast sum or
nne billion dollars will have to be paid in taxes of
all sorts.
Mr.. Fortune may have his national income fig
ures too low, the amount has to be more or less q
guess as the prices of commodities have a great
place in this income
The tax figures, however, are not guesses. They
can be had exactly.
Slowly but surely the American people are real
lzlng that the tax machine must be put in reverse.
Necessary and essential public service must be
continued of course, but the frills, the bureaus
and whatnot that have been unwisely created and
established will have to go-Greenwood Is. c.

BUZZARDS' EGGS
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

through the kind of affection that
inspires marriage. 1t is done, if
it is done at all, through strength
through spiritual and mental
strength.
The woman, who reforms the
man she marries, must be stronger
than he. II she is strong enough
and wise enough and he loves her
enough, she can possibly pull him
up to her level, or to some grade
near it. But if he is the stronger,
he will almost invariably pull her
, down to his level. or to some
grade below it. When woman lets
go and starts down. she is more
likely to hit the bottom than to
stop short of it..
What some folks can not under
stand is that evil conduct may not
tear down an evil man. He may
be no more injured by his un-
wholesome behavior than a buzz
card is impaired by feeding on
carton. 1t is buzzard's nature to
thrive on putrid meat. The diet
does not hurt him because he is a
buzzard. An evil man, who has no
conscience, can lie down and sleep
peacefully in the midst of his evil
life, because he has no conscience
to prick and poster him. But if
he has a conscientious, spiritually
minded wife, who is not strong
enough to live above him though
living with him, her live, active
conscience may tear her to pieces.
In ten years her face may vivid
ly portray exactly what has hap
pened, while her husbands fea-
lures may not have changed no
ticeably. A wolf always looks
about the same in the face! so
does a crocodile. A Bengal tiger
will feel refreshed and renewed
after devouring the loveliest Of
human beings.
A wholesome woman should
never under any circumstances,
marry an unwholesome man, I'M
less she knows that she is so much
stronger. than he that she can re-

mold him and unless she is willing
TO make the sacrifice which would
probably be great.
"But l love him." vehemently
declares a girl who wants to link
her life with that of an unworthy
male person. Perhaps she does. or
thinks she does, but the chances
are she won't love him after she
has been married to him six
months. She had better sever re-
lations with him before marriage
than after marriage. Painful as
the breaking of an engagement
may be, it is not one fraction so
painful as the breaking of a mar
riage bond.

twenty dollars and I'll pay you in

the element of fire as it has been
known from the creation of the
world to modern times. The ac-
ton of the pageant will be set on
a large barge in the middle of
Laurel Park lake.
The pageant opens in a fan
tastic manner and ends with a
distinctly modern scene. various
countries being represented on
the shores Of the lake surround
ing the barge. The barge, as an
island, represents the world as it
was in the beginning with assimi-
lated fires burning over the is
land and around it. The Fire God
sits en- high rock overlooking
his dominion. From this point
the story of fire is told as it has
given heat, light and comfort
from the beginning of time down
to the present time.

act. A cup will be presented to
the canoe chosen by judges as

solo parts.
A number of summer camps
for boys and girls have signified
their. intention to participate in
the carnival and pageant and 9TH

The carnival in the afternoon
will feature athletic contests of
various kinds such as wrestling,
boxing, diving and swimming ex-
jhibitions, archery exhibitions, dra-
matte sketches, canoe drills,
water polo games, tumbling ex-
hibitions. gypsy dancing, lawn
dancing and various other forms
of amusement.
The carnival will be given over
largely to booths and a special
row of camp booths will exhibit
the work done by these summer
camps for boys and girls. Other
booths will exhibit mountain
acts and crafts and arrangements
will be made to serve picnic
lunches and meals on the grounds.
The pageant will feature as solo

increase of EVA employment
in Montgomery county, Md, to
record peaks is set for this month,
Stephen Cromwell, Rockville EVA
manager, said today.
At least $50 persons will be en-
ployed on emergency works by
New Year, Mr.. Cromwell said.
Plans now under consideration by
the Board of Montgomery County
Commissioners may increase this
number by at least 200, it was
disclosed in Rockville today.
Mr.. Cromwell said the employees
now working were constructing
grounds, parks, picnic
grounds, school additions and the
like. He said a large number OF
applications had been received
from men who normally work on
farms but that this type of work
has been completed for the year
and they must turn to the emer-
gency administration for jobs.
The Montgomery commission
ers, faced with the possibility OF
having no road maintenance done
in the county for several months,
are considering employing many
men on emergency rolls to take
