 A determined effort is under way to enlist President Roosevelt more openly in the political campaign. No. promises have been made, but neither has the proposal encoun- tered, thus far, definite veto.
 It is against precedent for Chief executives to ask the voters direct ly, in off-year campaigns, to sup port administration candidates. Woodrow Wilson went contrary to this precedent in 1918, and the country's reply was a Republican Congress.
 Those who want MT. Roosevelt to keep quiet present the argument that, like MT. Wilson, he has ap- pealed for non-partisan cooperation and cannot now become a partisan without risking serious reaction.

MAKE THE TOWN ATTRACTIVE-IT
WILL IMPROVE BUSINESS

The Times-NewS is informed of people
who have recently come to Hendersonville
to stay while or perhaps become citizens,
all on account of the attractiveneSS of the
place, what it has to offer in accommoda-
tons for visitors, and the enterprise OF To-
cal business men. That story has often
been repeated here. 1t has been the eXpe-
rience for years of Hendersonville and its
business people. But, it is a fact and should
not be forgotten, that Hendersonville is not
finished, its people are not infalhble, and
we do not always do things in a perfect
manner There is still room for improve
ment. 1t is on this line that The Times
News sounds call to the people of the
community and the surrounding territory.
The Spring and Summer season is al
most at the opening. The indications are
that it is going to open early and prove to
be big season. Our people should get To
work promptly and be prepared for the
business to follow,
HenderSonville is a clean and attractive
town. Let it be kept that way in every
block of its area Much of the property OF
individuals is an asset to the place. Prop
erty that is not attractive should, in so far
as possible, be made so.
The time for special drive to clean up,
paint up and dress up the town generally
has arrived. ..
The work should be accomplished with
in thirty days. There are already many
visitors in Hendersonville and the month
of May will probably indicate what the
season is going to be-. Let US be prepared
TO show our visitors clean and attractive
and beautiful place, with inviting homes
and business places, and a friendly spirit
that will convince them they made a wise
decision in deciding to come here.
The Chamber of Commerce and the
clubs of Hendersonville, cooperating with
public officials, are hereby called to get
busy with this most important matter OF
preparing the town for the seasons Wis
itors. No time should be lost Prompt &C
ton is necessary.
Remember that in tourist town MAX
ing the place attractive to strangers is the
certain way to improve business.

WHAT A CODE HAS DONE FOR ONE
INDUSTRY

The practical operations Of codes are
now becoming known, as some of them
have been working long enough to SHOW
results, good or bad. What has been done
to the southern pine lumber industry by
its code was made known to the 10Th an
nual meeting of the Southern Pine Asso-
citation in New Orleans yesterday by Sec.
retary-Manager H. C. Berckes.
Mr.. Rerckes solemnly recommended to
the Association that wages in the pine
lumber industry be reduced and the work
ing time be increased from 40 to 4S hours
per week. His position was based on this
statement:
Volume of business necessary to main
tain the present scale of wages and hours
provided in the code has not come to the
southern lumber industry. Figures show
that 20 per cent. greater capacity suf-
Tered 25 per cent. less business in January
than in September. On unit basis the
average decrease in business during the
first five months of code operation was al
per cent"

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE CHILD LABOR" AMENDMENT

The current issue of the Carolnas magazine
contains much constructive information concern
ing this proposed amendment. On the cover OF inc
magazine is large picture of DIR. Lawrence Low
ell president emeritus of Harvard University, who
is a strong opponent of the amendment. Inc 1acC
that a man of Dr. Lowells experience and quaill'-
cations is outspoken and emphatic IN ms oppos-
ton to the socalled child labor law, should prove
highly significant to every thinking citizen. Df.
Lowell has devoted his life to the youth of Amer
lea and he certainly cannot be considered heart
less reactionary Among other things he said IN
this connection: ..
.sTbe world has not suddenly become wholly
new, or yet perfect, and what has happened IN
the past is not entirely without significance for
the future Twice at least by amendments to the
constitution we have conferred upon congress pow
ers that we have regretted afterwards. Look at
the case of the 14th Amendment which gave con-
gress power, after the Civil to enforce in the
southern states the policy of Reconstruction Some
! of the provisions of that amendment have proved
| to be dead letters; but the whole plan of Recon-
struetion of which it was part, no one now de-
fneds; and it left legacy of bitterness that still
fingers. The power it gave to legisate for the
South grevouS mistake
"The ratification of the so-caled child labor
amendment would immediately nullify child labor
laws already upon the statute books of each of
the 4S states--laws suited to the conditions pre-
vailng in each of the states, passed ny the people
who have an understanding of the problems exist
| ing in their states
"Ths amendment would take away from each of
the as states control over its educational system
and vest the control in bureau in Washington.
No state has, or has ever had, as much power
in regulating and controlling the lives of citizens
as this amendment would give to congress
"The proposed amendment, if enacted into law,
would modify in an unprecedented degree con-
ceptiop of government The Constitution of the
United States rests upon the clear distinction be-
tween national and local government. The turn
ing over of the occupatonal control of each per-
son under IS years of age to government agency
in Washington, established by congress- would
mean the abandonment of our whole conception OF
government Hickory Record.

Editor:
Why should the citizens of
Henderson county have to give
up thousands of acres of the best
farming land in the county to be
used to make a lake for storage
purposes for the benefit of peo-
pie outside of Henderson county =?
If the streams Of Henderson
county could be drained by the
government we would derive the
greatest benefits by turning the
land that is now subject to over
flow into valley that would be
as fertile as the Nile.
If the best lands of Henderson
county should be covered with
water we would lose the greatest
asset we now have. -
l feel that Mr.. Noah Hollowell
and the Chamber of Commerce
should do everything in their
power to help get this drainage
proposition through.
Yours truly,
w. A. (BILLl SMITH.
