THE MOUNTAIN FALL SEASON

In timely editorial summer visitors and
the splendors and comforts of the early fall sea-
son, which so many tourists miss by returning home
in September, The Hendersonville Times-News ex-
presses its confidence that this season many OF
these Rowland visitors are making their plans to
enioy the mountains in September, October and
November. .-. a....... ..a... ..a .......l $50.
The Tmes-News points out that the fame of the
fall season in our mountain country has been
spread far by the visitors from the Piedmont Car
olinas who have formed the habit of spending the
week-ends in the hills all through the early fall.
Those visitors have learned says The Times
News that the cold rains that sometimes come in
early fall are usually only prelude to the Indian
Summer season, which is really the halcyon season
of the hills in its brliancy of skies and its cool
and invigorating breezes, .l Il. ...-.s.r s,
The Times-News addresses its editorial to what
is pnquestonably, as it says, the largest company
of summer visitors that has visited Hendersonville
and Henderson county since the not dear and not
lamented boom days. l..,. ,.....
From every other town and county of the noun
tain resort region there come reports of similar
throngs of visitors. This newspaper joins its Hen
Jacksonville contemporary in the hope that the news
about the beauties and attractions of the autuma
forests and the autumn temperatures can be spread
among all these visitors, and that hundreds of them
will remain to experience for themselves what they
will declare to be among the rarest of their ex-
periences travelers-Asheville Times.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
SHOULD OPEN OUR EYES

Robert E. Andreae's experience in Germany DUR
ing Hitler's "blood purge" of the nation, as told
in his interview with scribe in another CITY,
should open our eyes little more clearly and I'M
nress upon our minds more forcibly just what this
thing of freedom of the press and freedom OF
speech means to u.s. ua
Andreae was in Germany and right in the midst
of this ,"blood purge" and didn't know what was
happening. He didn't know anything unusual was
going
1t wasn't printed in the newspapers 1t WASH
even talked about on the streets.
The fact that any German who discloses any
news of the activities of Hitler's army faces a
long term in prison. shows what happens wheh the
freedom of the press is curtalled.
The fact that Andreae and his companions did
not find out what was happening until they got to
Switzerland, shows how thoroughly this is being
done in Germany.
But while it makes the newspaper simply gov
eminent house organ, it's worst effects are in the
destruction of the liberties of the people along with
their freedom of speech.
It shows plainly there can be no freedom OF
speech and no liberties of any sort without free
dom of the press. ,~..> .... .'.
1t should more firmly than ever convince us
that oCr hrst duty, TO ourselves touay' anu W WI
children and posterty is to insist upon our rights,
constitutional and natural, at all times, and to
be ON guard against any and every insidious at
tempt to restrict or invade them ..y
Only thus can we be sure of the preservation
of our union and our democracy, the greatest ex-
pertinent of all time in human liberty.
Only thus can We be sure we may not soon be

whose lives are absolutely at the mercy of bigot-

LOSING TICKETS

After the drawing of one of the Irish Hospital
Sweepstakes an English newspaper devoted
whole page for two successive days to announcing
names and addresses of winners of various amounts
in London and environs.
But the lure of easy money was considerably
diminished by subsequent calculation For it
was figured that, if the list of losers in London
should be published after the same fashion, it
would require whole page in the newspaper for
,465 consecutive days, or for four solid years.
1t is the winner, and not the loser, that we hear
about. And those multtudnous losers are general
y the Zones who can least afford the steady finan
eial drain that the gambling habit exacts. The Co.
lossal sums handed to the bookmakers should prop
erly go through legitimate trade channels to the
grocer. the landlord, the clothing merchant. Con-
templating the millions expended by the poor, any
sane observer is appalled, and disguised at the
moral and economic wastage involved. There are
abundant indications that no nconsiderable part
of the huge sums being raised for relief goes to
gambling promoters, r,tr. 4. g. e. ..r.....a seq. r

MORE ALIMONY

Digging into alimony RECORDS OF courts
of marital relations for evidence of busl-
ness recovery is digging pretty deep, but
some digging has been done in just that
place and it has produced the desired re-
suits.
Chicago jails are freeing erstwhlle nus
bands, who are delinquent in their alimony
payments, because they are finding jobs or
their businesses are picking up to the point
where they can resume payments to the
ex-wife. Thirteen of these matrimonial VIC
tins were released in a single day: Cleve-
lands alimCny-club is 90 per cent prompt
in its payments, and Atlanta, Ga, reports
easier collections.
Hardly taken into consideration by
the national recovery administration, the
aiimony industry has nevertheless benefit
ed and is we'll on the road to recovery.
And now that ex-wives are again being
supported in the manner to which they
were accustomed there ought to be few
more fur coats and SIC shoes for the
wives. In their own words, they are the
last to benefit.
,Alimony- getters are preferred creditors,
for the reason that the courts do their col
lecting for them. So these payments are
no criterion of debt payments in general,
although commercial collections are better.

not considered so desirable as it
once was; but if through intelli-
gent and fair refinancing, the
debt of overburdened commune

point that would represent a rea-

those communities would imme-

and would attract the billions of
dollars now piled up in banks
looking for safe investments.
So, it is logical to assume that
in the near future, a new type OF
financial organization will appear
on the horizon - the financial
syndicate-which, for fee, will
agree to undertake to gather to-
gether IS per cent of a commun-
ity's creditors into an agreement
based on the ability of the COM
munity to pay. The syndicate
may raise the case to buy out
the creditors at so much on the
dollar, and receive from the COM
munity new bonds TO cover the
reduced Indebtedness, or it may
arrange for the community to
exchange new bonds, par for

bonds to represent an extension

LONG DELAYED RADIO
ECHOES PIQUE WORLD
OF SCIENCE TO ACTION

WASHINGTON, Aug. 81. CUP
Scientists the world over have
linked forces in an international
project designed to diagnose a
battling phenomenon known as
'1ong-delayed" radio echoes.
"Long-deiay" echoes were de-
tected first in Norway in 1927.
They followed the original signal
after a three-second interval.
Although echo signals at one
seventh of second interval have
been attributed to reception of
waves travelling the earth around,
three-second echoes never have
been explained. III.
PHENOMENON VERIFIED
The phenomenon has been veri-
fled by Dutch, British and French
engineers. Echoes have been
heard from one to 80 seconds
after the original signal.
Two; theories have been ad-
vanced to 4 explain the enigma.
DR.. c. Stormer of Norway, be-
Geves it likely the earth is sur
rounded by great streams of
Felectrons hundreds of thousands
of miles beyond the equator
which converges upon the two
magnetic poles. He said the sig
mails may be reflected from the
electron streams in space.
The other theory is that the
echoes are the result of a slow
ing up and reflection of waves
by a peculiar distribution of Joni
cation in the high levels of the
ionosphere-that portion of the
