The nation has just observed "Consti-
tuition Week" It was sponsored by the Am
erican Legion, which carries on continuous
work in the interest Of better Americanism.
In these trying times, it will benefit
every citizen if he looks backward into the
nations past. One hundred and fifty-eight
years ago the Revolution came to an end. A
handful of patriots, who had suffered great
privations for long years of war to break
the bonds of governmental oppression,
marched home. Shortly afterwards they es-
tablished the United States of America
and for the first time in world history lib
erty and equality became the fundamental
governmental principles of great nation.
There is danger that, in our effort to OBJ
tain temporary benefits and favors, in order
to meet a periodic depression ("casual en-
barrassment" in the life of a nation, as
Thomas jefferson described it) we as peo-
pie will lose part of the great heritage that
was handed down to us by our forefathers.
Today the Constitution is under attack
critics would have us believe that it has out
lived it's usefulness, and is only scrap of
paper. If the Constitution is outmOded, so
is liberty, so is the right to the pursuit of
happiness, so is the right to ownership of
property, and the privilege and duty of work
ing and saving for ones self. The Constitu-
ton deals with the basic principles Of liber-
ty, equality and freedom from oppression
which are as timeless as the seas.
Every American citizen should resolve to
do all in his power to maintain constitutional
liberty Liberty which was won with blood at
Yorktown.

Some Satisfactorily minded person, when
speaking of the way the two-mill levy for the
school district was turned down, estimated
that the average taxpayer in this end of the
county would have been taxed an additional
seven cents year had the levy carried. The
interest on the warrants which probably will
be issued before the school term is out will
amount to more than that trifling sum, no
doubt.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
URGING BANKS TO LoosEN.up

One great trouble since depression was felt has
been the Discrimination of the banks to lend money
and it has been the aim of Chairman Jones' of the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation, to establish
situation under which the banks would feel justi-
fed in loosening-up. Chairman Jones now makes
declaration that the sterilization of the dollar at
its new level has opened the way for the banks to
resume lending money-to supply capital for bust
ness purposes. If that proves to be the case. we
are out of the woods, for supply of cash for
business purposes is the need of the day. Jones is
warning the banks that if under the new condi-
tions they refuse to lend money on Legitimate Sc
curity, then the government, ITSELF will go into
the business of lending, although the government
would not want to be forced to become the banker
for every deserving borrower in the United States.
He believes the hesitation of the bankers is because
they are still suffering from shelshock - still
afraid" He further advises that there is no
thought on part of the government of debating
management, or of coercion as to bank policies
or bank investments, but the time has Gomez to
quit worrying about the dollar for it is ssthe best
; money in the world Charlotte Observer.

1900 Teachers Will
Be AT Work By
Middle OF Month
That Number To Be Added
to Those Active in
State by CWA
The Times-TScws Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Feb. g. Twelve
hundred teachers of the 1900 who
are not now employed are expect
ed to be at work on CWA funds
by mid-February, according TO
the state department of education
which is placing them in conjunc-
ton with Mrs. Thomas O'Berry,
civil works administrator Tor
North Carolina.
DR.. Allen. state superintendent,
hopes to get work for all the I'M
employed teachers, among whom
are some former county and city
superintendents, principals and
unouestioned educational leaders.
They will draw the pay Of aver
age workers, about $12 a week,
though there is hope Of lifting
this compensation somewhat high
er.
The department sought to work
these teachers into the selecter
class of skilled laborers, but the
government was primarily con-
cerned with the relief feature
and the appropriation was limit
ed. The ranks of these workers
have increased. Many have quail
fled in schools of free instruction
during which time the applicants
drew pay. They have had night
schools for adult illiterates and
have formed classes outside the
regular places in which schools
are taught.
The state department is also
interested in an educational pro-
gram lately announced from
Washington, which contemplates
the spending of $50,000,000 as
supplement to the state school
funds. If North Carolina could
| get it's pro rata of that DR.. Allen
/ thinks the school fund for 1884
1885 would be augmented by
81, 100000 and teachers salaries
might be increased 10 per cent.
This program just published will
start drive on Washington
where North Carolina delegation
in congress is now working and
some mighty unhappy senators
and representatives will be there
while the teachers work.

ment from Goldsboro that Judge
Frank Daniels will not ask re-
nomination makes virtually Ger
tain the candidacy of Solicitor
Clawson L. Williams of Sanford,
to succeed him, it is learned IN
Raleigh.
While Judge Daniels has taken
himself out only in informal way,
his retirement is indicated in a
letter to Justice G. w. Conner
of the supreme court bench.
Some weeks ago Solicitor Don
Phillips Of the Richmond district
indicated his purpose to race
Judge A. VI. Stack. There may
be other solicitors on the way up.
The fact that two of the best and
best known will try for Judge
ships means also that a pair of
the best politicians in North Car
DINA will be hard to beat.
Solicitor Phillips beat Solicitor
NJ. w. Nash. now Of High Point,
and Solicitor Williams defeated
Solicitor Walter D. Siler, rated as
clever as any of them. Judge
Stack trimmed Judge Walter
Brock, at that time very hard
man to GUST. But Judge Brock
and Solicitor Nash were appoin-
tees Of Governor Cam Morrison
who advanced these gentlemen
when Judge w. ]. Adams went
on the supreme court bench. So,
