NEWSPAPERS OPINION
TWO INTERLLNKED

Wherever there are the greatest ACCOMMODATIONS
and reserves of capital there the workers are pes'
paid and maintained on the more comfortable
basis Wherever Industries have developed the
greatest capital resources, there prosperity Is inc
more enjoyed by both owners and employees
Conversely wherever capital supplies are the
more limited and industries the more restrict
ed in their capital reserves, there the greatest as
comfort exists among the workers.
The capitalstic countries are the United States
Great Britain, Holland France, Belgium and Ger-
many, and Canada.
The anti-csDitalistic countries China, lndla'
Russia. Austria, the Balkans. Italy and Mexico

tive oropps of these capital and non-capltaI couh-

Tho farmer, EMPLOYERS are always in the happier
od r,ore nrosperous state, while in the latter
group the workers are in constant distress anu
sorry plight. ~
Those therefore, who insist that capitalism has
tendency to enable the rich to get richer am
the poor to grow poorer are not within the range
of reason. .... ....... ..
The canitalistic system which allows free play
for private initiative and enterprise permits an
individual to amass wealth in pro2ortion 10 ms

IN the matter of utilizing their capital TO make
more capital, is under severe fire throughout 'he
world because of the universal economic break
down. ......, ,
II IS reasonable to assume, in the light OF wha'
has hammered under this system in countries COM
mitted to its principles that the collapse came ho'
becanse of any inherent defects within the system
itself, but mainly because it was prostltuted 10
selfish and greedy purposes $1,000.
When held within proper bounds the principle
of capitalism analyses being not only 1alr anu
yirtuous and righteous for the caritallstlc mter-
ests involved, but also for the working masses VINO
are, likewise in the picture.
As matter of fact, according to the logic OF
the question the status of labor is wholly depen-
dent uuon the status Of capital and their relation
is interdependent and closely interviewer within
this system
If labor increases more rapidly than capital IN
creases to utilize it, laborers occupy weak posi-
ton and are usually in economic distress because
of poor pay.
Let capital however, increase more rapidly than
labor, and the atter's position becomes stronger
and its wages rise higher.
The communistic PHILOSOPHERS of government,
therefore, which would summarily and without
reason or regard for right tear down the capital
resources of the country and OF its citizens ana
compel everybody to get down to a common level
of proftless enterprise to the end that the con-
dition of the masses might be improved are point
ing in the opposite direction from the objective
they have in mind.-Charlotte Observer.

THE CANISTER SALUTE

| Catawba county had sample of gangster tao
tics in the sensational shooting of two officers of
the law, at Newton, early Thursday morning, when
they attempted to search automobile in which
three unidentified men were riding.
! The two wounded officers, Deputy Sheriff Ray
Pitts and Arthur Huffman, Newton night police
man, are entitled to the same sort of appreciation
for their services as heroes fallen on the field of
battle. 1t is time that people generally recognize
the fact that law and order is at with the
| criminal element, and society has more at stake
right now than in most conflicts which waged
between nations. Citizens should acknowledge this
and begin clarifying deeds of valor of peace Of
fcers for fearless performance in line of duty
Deputy Pitts has distinguished himself for
bravery in more than one clash with the criminal
element An officer of that type necessarily SUBJ
jects himself to great personal risk. In the first
place, the criminals usually have the drop on the
officers, as in the case at Newton. If Deputy Pitts
and Policeman Huffman had approached the sus-
peeted bandit automobile with drawn guns, cover
ing the occupants of the car and it had developed
that the men were guilty of no bad crifne-what
Ia fuss might have been rasedl Think how
aroused the public might have become we
aimed our shafts of criticism at officers who were
l. TOO eager 10 use IIlelr guns, VI 'toO qulck oH
the trigger"
| And yet, think of the chances taken every time
fearless officer does his duty and halts an auto
mobile whose occupants have been guilty of sus-
picious conduct; or who may perhaps seem to fit
the descriptions received from officers elsewhere.
At any time, at Newton Thursday, door may
be flung open and sub-machine gun thrown into
action. What chance has the officer?
Perhaps the theory advanced by sofae is correct:
the assailants may have been professional gunner
hired to come to Newton and intimidate the Off
4 GERS because rum runners have grown tired Of
having so many of their cars taken in CataWba
county Perhaps the trio were in the county to

is that-we have been given an exhibition of mod
ern gangster methods, and the question now arises
what are we going to do about it?

Eoficers who have already decided on the answer.

WASHINGTON. = If any con.
" gressional campaigners this
year get away with the story that
the existing order is menaced by a
radical Brain Trust" they'll be es.
tablishing one more tribute to voter
gullibility. &C.,.
The record shows that nearly all
really radical proposals for legisla-
ton come out of Congress itself.
The, administration and its brain
trustersl find suppression of them
one of its toughest tasks. -. -.

via the petition route when the ad.

The compulsory cotton control
act was produced and promoted by
the Bankhead brothers, senator and
representative from Alabama. This
most radical phase of AAA's pro.
gram, was "abhorrent" to Score
tary of Agriculture Wallace and AS
sistant Secretary Tugwell, but de
nlanded by cotton growers.
The bonus measure was purely
congressional. So are the unem,
ployment insurance and old age
pension bills, on which Roosevelt
holds back. Proposals for a ten.
billion-dollar public works pro.
gram come from Senator La Fol,

TABLE TALK

The Martins usually spend
their mealtime talking about the
doines of the children at school,
the neighbors on the street, the
gangsters in the papers, the
celebrities on the screen. The
movie magazines supply them
with much of their table talk.
The CAROLS prefer current
events,-rather, Mr.. Carroll does:
They talk about the affairs of
the day, = rather, Mr.. Carroll
does while Mrs. Carroll responds,
eyes, DEAR" and the rest sit in
heavy silence, getting away from
the table Just as quickly as is
consistent with the intake of SUI
ficient food to last till next time.
Sometimes Mr.. Carroll discourses
on how different things were.
When he was boy,-but let's
space ourselves that, and get
away from the table just as
rapidly as the children do.
At the Robertsons, things are
somewhat different. Some time
ago Mr.. Robertson proposed that
each one should present con-
tribution at each mealtime, the
rest to decide whether or not it
was acceptable. | may be an in
teresting incident of recent &C.
currence,-but plain gossip is
usually taboo. Dad. who loves
history, frequently sneaks to the
library just before mealtime to
brush up his recollection of some
favorite incident we'll enough to
relate it. Mother,-but then, the
rest were usually so interested in
telling theirs that mother rarely
finds herself called upon to con-
tribute.
