WASHINGTON - The Senate
" Munitions Committee. conf
dent now that its investigation
can't be stopped. will produce its
future sensations in the normal
course of events.
1t has a number Of revelations
on tap which it considers embar-
RAISING to the administration. And
it was set to hurl these in single
wad as sort of a pre-Christmas
gift when it appeared to members
that President Roosevelt, in his
appointment Of the war profits
committee was seeking to curtail
the inquiry
Members checked around, how
ever. and found 10 disposition in
the Senate TO halt proceedings.
They are more than confident of
the outcome when Roosevelt. in
what may or may not have been
change Of mind. summoned
Chairman Nye to the White House
and affirmed his desire that the
investigation continue.
THE clash. however. probably
l. will come when and if the
president asks for war profits
legislation at the Forthcoming
session. The committee wants to
keep on investigating the NUM-
lions business right through until
next fall and then make carefully
considered recommendation as to
both the munitions industry in
time of peace and profits in war
time.
Briefly, the private opinion of
most committee members is that
the War Department proposes to
turn the country over" to indus
trfalists as soon as war is de-
clared, establishing press censor
ship and permitting makers of
war materials to fix their own
prices and profits while Offering
no protection to labor or anyone
else.

Dear Mr.. Editor:
As time and events pass so
quickly ] feel that at this time [
would like to express thoughts
that came to my mind Sunday
after dinner. In thinking Of my
many fine business associates l
thought Of three as fine citizens
as we have in Hendersonville,
men whose jobs and responsible
ties may not be IS great as the
men of our national government
but men that fill their jobs as
fine as any men could and that
is what makes q fine country.
They are always optimistic, pleas
ant and loyal Christian citizens
and the need for this type of
men has never been greater. |
refer to H. o. Howard, ianitor of
our city hall, John Morris, ianitor
OF the State Trust company, and
George Mccullough, janitor of
the u. 5. postoffice. | wish them
health and happiness.
Yours very truly,
A. V. EDWARDS. Mayor.

Dear Sir:
| wish to express my opinion
about the state on the license tag
business. I think the state is
much harder on us than the bank
ers were. We all took our money
and deposited it in the bank IN
good faith, and the bankers took
it likewise. But they were out
witted by some, and the depres-
sion kept the bankers from get
ting back the money they had
loaned out to others who might
have had to have it tb get along.
But not so with the state, or
the governor and Mr.. Fisher.
They sit back and tel us that we
must pay a certain amount be-
fore we can drive our car, re-
gardless what we are using it
for, going to the doctor, taking
some one to the hospital, or haul
ing some poor widow woman a
load Of wood to keep her from
freezing.
If one is caught doing any of
these things, the governor and
Mr.. Fisher make you pay a fine
and buy your tag also, or go to
jail. That is worse than they did
before the Christian age. They
put you in Jail then for not pay
ing your debts, but at least they
didn't add to them any.
The governor and Mr.. Fisher
seem to be the only one who have
any freedom in this state, and
they make US pay them enough to
live in comfort, and if we don't
do that, right in jail we go.
used to get mad when people said
that the folks in North Carolina
were dumb, but now | begin to
wonder just how dumb we really
are.
1t is very easy for Mr.. Fisher
to sit back with plenty to eat, in
nice clean, warm office and tel
us what we must do to keep hin
rolling in luxuries. l Just wonder
why the people of Western North
Carolina have to be drug in The
dirt, while the people in the east
ern part of the state are at least
treated white. / suppose Mr.. Fisher
would still be in the army if he
could take orders as easily as he
can hand them out.

known in the trade as a palooka;
known affectionately to Chuck as
a stunble-bum.
To relieve the routine, Chuck
every once in while allowed the
palooka to beat him. This went on
and the palooka got chesty.
4 can beat you any time" said
he to Chuck with an initiation Of
his biceps, and I got $1,000 that
says So"
You can't beat me any time"
says Chuck to him, but I amt
got $1,000 that says anything"
Then he went about the camp
very sorroWful indeed that lack of
capital prevented him from TAX
ing advantage of a business oppor-
tunity.
NOW it so happened that, when
IN the carnival put up in a
town whose citizens were I'M
usually cohesive and partisan, one
Of the town slickers made what
later were described as improper
advances to the wife of a promi-
nent gypsy. She defended her
honor on a let's-yOu-and-him-
fight basis.
AS employees of the carnival
rushed to the gypsy's aid, towns
people rushed to the aid of the
slicker. Things were getting into
state of hopeless stagnation
when Chuck heard about the mat
ter. When he arrived on the
scene he saw that arbitration Of
the difficulty would be impudent,
so he started to fight.
Chuck was bit decisive about
his attitude in the matter, and
many a towns person went home
with something he later explained
as having been inflicted when he
walked into an open door.
All of this contributed to the
unpopularity of Chuck.
Well, the gypsy and his strenu-
ously defended wife were SO CRATE
full to Chuck that they. decided to
lend him $1,000 to take advantage
of that business opportunity, and
the bet was made and the fight
set for after closing hours one
night, with carnival employees and
some city people as the invited
guests.
Among the city people invited
were some who saw the fight with
only one eye, and Chuck listed
them among his warmeSt enemies.
CHUCK, Of course, won in a Sc
~ ries of breezes. He toyed with
his opponent. but each round he
put in a telling punch or SO. The
crowd grew restless, because most
of them had hoped and believed
Chuck would get beaten. Some
even had made bets.
Chuck SenSed the uneasiness Of
the crowd, and made his plans &C
cordingly. When he decided to
end the thing, he swung from the
floor and his opponent went down

AWARD Of BID
TO PRISON IRKS
STONE DEALERS
Local Organization Files
Protest With Works
Board.

Protest OF the Building Supply
Dealers Association against the
awarding Of bids for crushed stone
to penal institutions was voiced yes
terday in a letter received by the
city purchasing department, written
by H. A. Rogers, association secre-
tary.
The letter charged that the bids
were lower than the legal manu-
facturers' price to dealers. and un-
der the amended building supply
trade would be ruinous price
cutting and contrary to the spirit
Of the NRA."
In his letter, Mr.. Rogers reminded
the purchasing department that the
Marion County dealers who had
submitted bids on the stone we're
living up to their respective codes
as to labor provisions and hours Of
employment, and also were tax
payers and respected citizens of the
community"
Albert Losche, city purchasing
agent. who read the letter to
Board of Works members at their
meeting yesterday, explained that
under provisions of Indiana law,
municipalities are required to pur-
chase such supplies from public in
stitutionS, provided they equal in
quality supplies which are submitted
by individual firms
The works board instructed Henry
Steeg. city engineer, to examine
crushed gravel from the Indiana
State Reformatory at Pendleton. to
determine if it is equal in quality
to that offered by various Marion
County dealers, who we're underbid
by the reformatory. A report on the
gravel will be submitted to the
works board Monday.

SO. the certain party" theory Is
out. But the story still has
didn't know -it-was- loaded quality,
because Chuck didn't allow his
bereavement to affect his stern
business iudgment-he didn't pay
for them.
The whole bill, Chuck recalls,
was S18. And the florist, whose
business judgment also was keen,
sued for his money. Chuck al
ways likes a fight, even when he is
fighting in some one else's back
yard, and he accepted the chal-
lenge.
He lodged process servers and
got along all right until some one
thoughtlessly scheduled him for a
fight in the city.
Somewhere or other, probably
from his carnival days, Chuck had
heard of attaching the box office
receipts, and he had growing
suspicion that on the night Of the
fght-even while he was giving
and taking punishment for dear
old Chuck-the minions of the
law would be collecting the box
office profits that he had in
tended would accure to him.
The night of the fight arrived,
with more fanfare about the pos
sible outcome of the flower suit
than the fight. Chuck took his
place in the ring. Everything
looked dandy.
Then just before the battlers
were to assemble in the center OF
the ring for the referee to search
them for over-treaty-limits arma-
ment, such as brass knuckles. an
unscheduled event took place.
TINE florist, happy at what he
Il considered the certain col
lection of his bill, ara graf efui
for the vast amount OF publicity
the Virgins suit had brought him,
had a friend climb into the ring
and present Chuck with a large
bouquet of roses. The crowd
dubbed him the orchid kid"
Chuck was very happy-not to
say touched-at the gift and as
sort Of gesture at appreciation,
whipped the daylights out Of his
opponent.
The evening ended happily for
every one-with the possible ex-
ception of the florist, who learned
after the fight that Chuck had
collected his wages before he en-
tered the ring-and the $18 was
not collected.
Chuck can't recall just now
whether he ever did pay that bill.
But he does remember once be-
fore when there seemed to be
some danger about his collection
of money owed to him.
That was when he travelled with
a carnival, fighting all corners and
taking no beatings that he didn't
know about in advance. AS a
come-on he fought a gentleman
