Vote PAT to 169-MemberS
Demand Right to Ballot on
Salaries as Promised Pre-
viousIy by Leaders.
LONE G. 0. P. OPPOSED
CHANGES HIS VOTE
Woodrum Suggests That All
Other Senate Amendments Be
Put in One Block and Sent to
Conference for Compromise.

BY vote of 247 to 169, the House
today rejected the gag rule brought
out by administration leaders to send
the independent offices appropriation
bill to conference without vote on
Federal pay restoration and veterans
benefits.
The only Republican who voted in
favor of the rule, Representative Rich
of Pennsylvania, later changed his
vote.
The House members rejected the
rule because the House leadership
had promised them a chance to vote
on the Senate amendment, and the
rule would deprive them of that op-
portunity.
Representative Woodrum of Vir-
ginia, chairman of the subcommittee
in charge of the bill, offered motion
to put all of the other Senate amend
ments in a block to be sent to confer
ence except the Federal salaries and
veterans benefits, on which sep
arate vote has been demanded.
Twenty three Senate Amendments.
Mr.. Woodrum explained there are
% Senate amendments, but that only
the proposal to restore basic salaries
to Government employees and return
ing substantial benefits to veterans of
the Spanish-American and World
Wars are the only ones In real con-
troversy.
Representative Isabella Greenway,
Democrat, of Arizona, who served as
maid Of honor at the marriage of
President and Mrs. Roosevelt, voted
against the administration. She was
cheered by the Republican side.
Democratic Leader Byrns of Tennes-
see previously had predicted victory
for the proposal. but his forces split.
Speaker Rainey voted AYE" for the
rule
Smell Charges "Misdeal."
During House debate, Representa-
tive Smell of New York, the Republi
can leader, said since the Democrats
had been in power they had turned
1.-The House of Representatives into
collective socialistic state"
I'm trying to make new deal you
have made a 100 per cent misdeal,"
Smell asserted.
Representative BulWinkle, Demo-
crat, of North Carolina, replying to
Smell. said that in all the years the.
Republicans were in power not one
opportunity had been offered for the
House to vote on a separate veterans
issue.
Veto Warning Sounded.
Representative Woodrum, Democrat.
of Virginia told his colleagues yester-
day that if the bill could once be got
ten to conference without committing
the House conferees. I'VE may have
fair chance to compose differences and
to obtain a compromise that will be
satisfactory to the Chief Executive"
Chairman Buchanan of the House
Appropriations Committee said the
whole independent Offices supply bill
would be returned by the White House
unless something was done.
1.-The President will veto the bill If
the Senate amendments are agreed to
by the House." said Buchanan fatty.

UNJUST CRITICISM

Criticism of the county delegation for whatever
part it may have had in the purchase of machine
guns and ammunition for the use of county peace
officers seems to be wholly unreasonable The pur-
chase of modern equipment for police officers has
been authorized by many progressive counties and
cities in all parts of the United States 1t is dam
gerous, unjust and foolish to deny officers such
arms as will enable them to meet criminals on even
terms Machine guns and automatic revovers are
the weapons which enable criminals to perpetrate
their crimes and often to shoot down police officers
and civilians in cold blood. 81. ..........
Sheriffs and sheriffs' deputies are the guardians
of the peace. It is their duty to run down and
arrest the men who commit murder, robberies and
other serious crimes. To send them out to search
for these men, and deny them the protection of
modern arms would be an act of injustice to them
and to the public they serve.

machine guns by desperate criminals Yesterday

NOT GUILTY IS
TAYLOR PLEA
Alleged Co-Ed Slayer's
Trial Set for Sept. 4
at Birmingham

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Aug. 30.
(UP). - Harold Taylor pleaded
not guilty when arraimned Tues
day on an indictment charging
that he murdered Faye New, ~
year-old Howard college coed,
when she fought off his amorous
advances.
Judge J. Russell McElroy set
the trial for next Tuesday, Sept.
4, over objections of Defense At
torney Morrell Montgomery who
said the early trial date would
not give him time to prepare his
case properly.
Taylor was calm when he came
into the courtroom to plead not
guilty to the indictment return
ed by special grand jury Mon
day.
The 28-year-old unemployed
engineer has consistently denied
that he harmed the girl, although
admitting that he took her for a
ride last Monday night and "got
a bit rough in advances to her
after parking his car on a lonely
road. She fled in anger into the
wooded hills, he said, and he re-
turned to town when she did not
come back.
Miss News body was found last
Wednesday in a cornfield a mile
from where Taylor said she left
him. Her throat was slashed and
there were evidences of a bitter
struggle.

THE TROUBLES

The government may print million or bill
lion silver certificates and the thrifty will saVe
and the spender will spend, and after while
there will be so much more money in the savings
banks and the thriftless will be bowling for the
printing of more money. Sc.
We have plenty of money. Most of the business
of the country is done on credit, and credit comes
from confidence. Give US confidence and the gold
certificate and the silver certificate will be chasing
in and out of business houses, back to the pocket
of the worker, back to the bank, back inbo the
lanes of business and industry.
1t is not the silver certificate we want but we
would like to see silver lining to the clouds that
still hover industry and business.
But perhaps you call that politics. Well, it may
be- but we need some real politics, and less theo-
ries just now.-John Skinner of the Augusta Her
aid. .s.
John is nearly always right in his logic. What
we need right now is return of good business
principles definite program for business to build
on. Until the public can be given such assurance
little progress is going to be made along the road
of recovery. .....
Another important thing is to restore to the
people their individual responsibility in life. A
man who has lost that desire and ambition to work
out for himself his own problems and be indepen-
dent has little if any chance of success. Roose-
vet's whole setup is to help those who are down
and out. The whole trouble is there are too many
people who are willing to throw up. their hands and
let Uncle Sam do the whole job.-Evening Tribune
Albert Lea, Mimi.

give you the immediate answer.
But every now and then, you
encounter a problem that is specu-
lative. One persons guess is as
good as another. What are you to
do with such a question? Here is
the thing to do.
Unless you are willing to take
a wild chance yourself, find out
what other persons think about
the same matter. Consult persons
of intelligence who might be ex-
pected to have sound thoughts
concerning the problem. Ask such
persons: "What would you do?"
Then when they tell you, ask
them, "Why?" When they explain
why, make mental or written
notes of their arguments.
After you have obtained all the
reasons feasible from various
types Of persons capable of Civ
ing opinions on the subject, sit
down quietly and analyze the rea-
sons for and against; think them
over with an open mind. Try to
keep your own prejudices out of
the picture. Sleep over the matter
for several nights, if time permits.
Ask yourself frankly, "Now just
what do | think about this thing?
Exactly what is my own opinion?"
Then, follow your bunch.
1t is strengthening to our own
character to make our own deci-
sions as soundly as we can after
having heard arguments pro and
con on questions that are debat-
able. We are supposed to use our
minds to come to our conclusions.
That is what our minds are for.
1t is good for US to practice
coming to decisions, and to de-
velop the habit Of coming to de-
cisions.
But we should not be pig-head-
ed. After we have come to a deci-
sion, should we see plainly that
we have made a mistake, we
should not hesitate to change.
On the other hand, it is harm
full to, permit ourselves to be
wishy-washy and change our deci-

NEWSPAPERS OPINION

The AAA apparently would like to run US 50

of European or Argentine wheat.
Our safety in food supply should lie in norman
carry-over of one or two hundred million bushels

That is one reason why we have no fear OF

forcing the price of wheat down below the farm

the result of gambling.
The fact that there has never been surplus OF
wheat in America that We had to throw away is
significant Supply and demand average up pretty
well from year to year.
The need is not so much for reduction OF the
amount of our wheat as an orderl ysystem of mar

level based on cost of production.
It is not impossible. 1t is something the AAA
might better worry about.-The Rock Hill Is. c.

ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAM A sue
cESS-NOF YET CONCLUDED

The ChamOer OF COIlI1eICe pAoSA 6Ai "
entertainment for visitors will be continued
into September. How far into next month
will be determined, no doubt, by the num-
Der of visitors remaining in the city and
section after the end of this month.
} The Chamber of Commerce, The Times
News and citizens interested In extending
the tourist season of this section through
,the Autumn, have been directing the con-
,sideration of visitors to the attractions OF
THE area as an Autumn resort section.
These efforts promise to bear some fruit
this season. It is believed number or
visitors will stay for several weeks of the
Autumn and that others will come to try
out the season. There will most certainly
be here through the Autumn the usual
weekend crowds of visitors from the
Piedmont sections of the Carolinas and
iother nearby territory.
If the number of visitors justiies extern
sion of the entertainment program that
lmay be given consideration, but on scale
mot so large during the Summer.
The Times-News has heard nothing but
praise for the Summer entertainment pro-
gram, The criticism that there is nothing
idoing" in Hendersonville during the Sum-
mer has not been heard this year. There
has been clean and wholesome amusement
for all ages and all classes. Those who
desired to engage in playing games, or in
swimming, fishing, riding or other sports
or exercise have been amply provided for
There have been many forms of amuse-
ment and all of high class and appealing
to all classes and ages among the visitors
The programs of vocal and instrumental
music combined have surpassed in number
and the talent engaged in presenting them
, the efforts of all previous seasons.
! Hendersonyille has made notable sue
! cess of the entertainment program for the
season. It is but the beginning of more
extensive efforts in coming years
The Times-News would again urge that
: all our visitors who can do so, remain over
for all or a part of the Fall season. We
believe they will derive much pleasure
I, from a stay in the mountains during this
| delightful season. Many of the visitors do

Is like. They should learn by experience.
