lpon few excerpts from a letter
addressed to the White House by
representatives of 500 strikers at

Hartman, Tenn:
1--WE have been trying to bargain
collectively since last October.
When the Labor Board (held

was that it would do nothing and

"The company had this brazen
proposal: why don't you strikers

President, is this, and though we
know you're a heavily over
worked man, we propose to stay
at your door until we get an an

send this case to the Compliance
Board, where it sent Budd's case
long ago, or to the Department
Of Justice, where it sent Weir's

with such cases.

QUESTION:: Dear DR.. Richard

gun to do lots Of things that his

his father is considering doing
this, if necessary. He says all the
other parents in his set let their
boys DO what we object to; and I
guess they do. But should we give
up our standards because other
parents have abandoned theirs?
ANSWER: BY no means. Only
but sure, when YOU say the boy
tells YOU that "all The other par
ents let their boys do" this and
that, that they really do. Perhaps
other boys, neither more nor less
truthful than yours, say the same
things to their parents about you.
Why not ask some of them your
self; maybe they are as concern
ed about their boys as you are
about yours. I agree with you
that fifteen is "too old to whip"

CHANGING YOUR MIND
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

emily, he may be we'll within his
rights to break it. Something may
happen that he did not anticipate.
Some facts may have been with
held from him to such an extent
that would justify him in revers-
ing himself unless he is tied up in
a contract that binds him.
Thus it would seem that one
should not be too hasty in COM
ing to conclusions on important
questions with which one is not
familiar. But once having made a
decision, one should stand by it,
unless there is some sound reason
for doing otherwise.
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1934-03-27

acter If a person allows himself
to be hauled this way and that
way by this person and that per
son, he eventually gets to the
point where he lacks mental
strength. He is without spiritual
stamina. Each of us should prac-
tice and develop the quality Of
being staunch about everything
We should practice and develop
the ability to make up our minds,
for that quality is necessary to the
growth and progress Of our souls.
Making up your mind does not
mean that you should never
change your mind. Making up
your bed does not mean that you
should never change your bed.
Conditions are constantly
changing; therefore, within rea-
son, our minds should be constant
ly changing also. 49,
1t is said that the man who
never changes his mind, has no
mind to change. That is another
one of those assertions which
sound all right but mean nothing.
In order for a man to make up
his mind, he must have one. You
can't make up something you
don't have-except, in the stock
market.
Sometimes it is as advisable to
change your mind definitely, as
it was advisable to make it up
definitely in the first place.
But there should be good rea-
son for changing your mind, if the
change is a matter of conse-
quence. In fact, I am inclined to
think that there should always be
good reason for, changing the
mind. even in small matters. I
think the habit of vacillation
should be worked against by re-
fusing to practice vacillation. For
instance, l do not think it is good
for one to allow himself to go
through some such mental process
as this:
81 believe I'll go in and get an
ice cream soda. No, l don't believe
I'll go in and get an ice cream
soda. l believe instead, I'll get a
nut sundae. Yes, l believe after
all, I'd rather have an ice cream
soda. Still, a nut supdae is awful
good. Now l wonder which | bet
ter take-an ice cream soda or a
nut sundae?"
That sort of thing is bad men,
tai practice. Make up your mind
and be done with it. Decide for
instance, that you are going to
take an ice cream soda. But even
then you may have logical rea-
son for changing your mind. You
may suddenly discover that you
have but dime in your clothes,
Or in your hand bag, and you may
remember that you must get a
pair of shoe strings. So if you take
any kind Of drink, you must get
one that costs nickle.
1t is advisable to develop in
yourself the quality of coming to
decisions as soon as possible and
standing by them as sturdily as
the circumstances will warrant.
But as time moves on and as
conditions change, your mind
must change, or you are a has
been, used-to-was.

word is as good as his bond

TALKING THROUGH HIS HAT

According to Howard Y. Williams, ma
tional director of the League for Inde-
pendent Action, there is considerable
talk of secession from the Union by mid
west states if the depression continues
and any effort is made by the huge trade
associations formed under the NRA to in
crease their grip on the country and force
an economic dictatorship"
Midwest states is a very indefinite
appelation, and it is perhaps we'll for
Mr.. Williams that it is indefinite.
Would he dare to charge directly that
the people of Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa,
Minnesota, or any other "mid-western
state" are planning secession? We doubt
it very much
Secession was settled once and for all
by four years of terrible carnage, the
effects of which have not even yet been
eliminated, although the Civil war ended
90 years ago.
Supposing that several of the mid
west states did secede, and that no effort
was made to get them back into the Un-
ion. Could they function as a separate
country or even as several independent
states? Politically and economically
they would be at disadvantage which
which would create terrific handicaps
for their existence
Mr.. Williams statement is hardly
worth discussing. Wheat may be unsal-
able, corn may drop to nothing at all,
but that does not mean that the people
of the midwest are going to leave the
Union. Their patriotism is unquestion-
able. Granted that the agricultural con-
ditions in the midwest are deplorable,
the remedy for this lies within the Union
and not without it and none knows better
than the people of the midwest
In the parlance of the street Mr.. Will
liams is talking through his hat. The
Union has been proved zone and INSOFAR
able" and it will take much more than
Mr. Williams or anyone else can produce
to dissolve it.

LETTUCE SHIPMENTS DURING
DECEMBER UP To NORMAL

According to the monthly report
of B. A. Harrigan, agricultural
commissioner, lettuce shipments
started the 1933-34 season on Dec
ember 8. The first car was loaded
in Brawley. Shipments for the
month totaled COG carloads - the
heaviest December loading since
1880, when GIG cars were loaded
Daily shipments reached the 100
mark several days. The highest
single days shipment was on Dec
ember %, when 103 cars were load
ed This mark has been exceeded
only once during the month OF
December in the history of the let
tuce industry in the valley-Dec-
ember 80. 1925. when 121 cars were
loaded
Quality and pack have been good
despite he unfavorable warm
weather early in the season. Mar
ket conditions. however, have not
favored the heavy movement with
the result that most growers and
shippers are packing only their best
quality produce.
Grapefruit shipments for the
month have been low This is at
tributed to the slow market de-
mand. No frost damage to date
will probably make it possible to
market the entire crop of the 1888
"a season, as most outside fruit has
been picked.
! An increase in the price of hay
