Thoughts while strolling in At

is a city of conventions, all right.
It's nice to get down here and talk
over things with other police chiefs.
Also good to get away from In
dianapolis and those darned annoy
ing boollie shops. I thought I had
them all cleaned up, and then Otto
comes along and pulls a fast one
just as my train is leaving. Co
operation. huh? Well. just wait till
I get back.
There is such thing as raiding
some one elseS territory, and that's
just what he did. Heck, what if
my boys haven't made any raids
lately? We maze good start and
we haven't got enough men to keep
it up all the time. Just how did
Otto find out about those places?
Wonder what the people back home
think Of the situation. Gee, this
is wide open town. Bet the boys
on the force down here don't do
much worrying about shops-bookie
shops, at any rate.
Have to find out what the folks
are saying about it. i. d. Gosh, what
will 1 say about it?

Roosevelt Until Then

Hoover to be nominated by the Re-
publican party as he and Ogden
Mills are trying so hard for 1886.
Perhaps Horace sees this, but he
is not yet ready to make public
announcement of his findings.
Nevertheless. he has convictions.
He seems to be missing the long
association with the Harding
Coolidge Hoover plunderbund, the
plunderbund that saved Amer
ice" from 1921-1933. AS editor of
the Saturday Evening Post, he
naturally feels very keenly the
loss of the big sin era. In those
days big shots sinned in a Dig
way, and the Constitution didn't
seem to mind. At least so it seems
to Horace in 1885
1t was bitter gall; it was hu-
initiating to state publicly, per-
haps with the written permission
of Herbert Hoover that it would
be a mistake for the Republican
party to etc., ETC., etc. 1t was
bloody piece of business and who
but Horace would have thought
of such a neat way to wipe out
the damned spot?"
It wasn't so bad after all, and
1t didn't hurt, either! And the
city slicker from Philadelphia cid
it in this wise: AS soon as he
had said the nasty thing about
Herbert Hoover, he added very
quickly that the Democratic party
shouldn't please nominate Presi-
dent Roosevelt, either! 1t would
be big mistake for the Demo-
cratic party to renominate Presi-
dent Roosevelt, ETC., etc, etc.
President Roosevelt inherited
the depression even as Herbert
Hoover inherited the depression.
=. Oh, yeah! From whom did
Herbert Hoover inherit the de-
preston? From himself or from
the Republican plunderbund? He
was in the Presidents Cabinet
from 1921-1933!
Now that We have an official
explanation for Herbert Hoover,
we shall wait for an explanation
of the Republican wash-out of
1921-1933. Until 1886 and there
after, President Roosevelt.

Here's a plume for Sheriff Otto

many more of them. His honest.
sincere efforts to clean up gambling
in indianapolis where others ap-
parently have failed, deserve the
praise of all citizens. Maybe the

Horace Lorimer lives in Phila-
delphia. He does not live in In
dianapolis or, for that matter, in
Indiana. He's a writer. He writes
for the Saturday Evening Post.
He also writes about Herbert
Hoover. He used to write about
the Republican party. He likes
to write editorials. He does not
like President Roosevelt.
Horace has just come out with
an editorial, "Poker-Politics." It's
a pretty slick editorial. It's not
exactly the kind of editorial one
would expect to see in The In
dianapolis Times, or, in any one
of the Scripps- Howard papers.
It's about the sort of thing one
would look for in an old man
let's say, in retired horse-t trad
err; saclike chin, purpled veins IN
the face, and hands that reveal
plenty of feline caution.
In "Poker-Politics" Horace did
a lot of wandering. He seemed
to know just where he was going.
Yet, he spent a lot of energy in
getting to his destination. His
was an awkward undertaking.
Hence, the awkward manner of
talking-with tongue in cheek.
The thing was distasteful, too.
But it had to be done. And who
other than Horace Lorimer, edi-
tor of the Saturday Evening Post,
to do it? A nasty thing had to
be said about Herbert Hoover,
and wouldn't it be less damaging
to say it in a dignified fashion?
And in slick manner? The Re-
publican party of 1921-1933 was
left unmentioned.
Horace didn't say it at the be-
ginning or in the middle of his
editorial, or at the close. He said
it near the close. He said the
Republican party could not af-
ford to nominate Herbert Hoover
for the presidency in 1896. That
was shock to all of us out here
in the hinterland who voted for
President Roosevelt in 1892! Hor-
ace failed to see that it's going
to be equally as futile for Herbert

COUNTY FARM
SUPERVISOR
DESIGNATED
F. A. Shoe Will Direct Re.
settlement Activity Here
and in Pennsylvania
MISS TURNER MADE
HOME SUPERVISOR

F. A. Shoe, formerly of Dur
ham, has been named as county
farm supervisor for Henderson
and Pennsylvania counties in the
resettlement administration, and
his office has been located with
the county farm agent, on Third
avenue east, in the Rusher build
ing.
Mr.. Shoe is a graduate of State
College, Raleigh, and a native of
Pearson county.
Miss Charlotte Turner, of Hen
Jacksonville, will serve as home
supervisor.
In speaking of the work to be
done today, Mr.. Shoe pointed out
that resettlement work is in two
phases. In the first phase, finan-
cial aid will be given to people in
an effort to improve their condl-
ton.
In the second phase the reset
Element work consists in the &C
tual placing of people on land to
be farmed.
For instance, he pointed out,
fnap, cial aid in the form of loans
,wiiff5e extended to young couples
just starting out in life and to de-
serving tenant farmers who are IN
need of aid. Loans will only be
extended, he said, where such peo-
pie are in such position that loans
can be liquidated and still leave a
living for those who receive them.
Loans are for the purchase of
farm implements, stock, fertilizer
and such supplies, but not for the
purchase of land. The loans will
be passed on by a county commit
tee, to be named.
Speaking of the second phase,
Mr.. Shoe said that there was little
chance that people in this section
would be moved and settled on
government land. The govern
ment, he said, is buying land for
this purpose but there are SO
many people from drought areas
who have been hard hit by other
economic situations that chances
are slim that any from this sec
ton will be so placed.
Mr.. Shoe will have the co-opera-
ton of the Henderson and Tran
sylvania county farm agents IN
technical information to be given
those receiving aid. -,
The work of Miss Turner Will
correspond largely to that ordl-
narily done by a home demonstra-
ton agent with the exception that
her work will be done entirely
with the group of people being
given aid by the resettlement ad-
ministration.

Soup Kitchens For Undernourished
In City Schools Are Made Goals OF
Junior Welfare Organization
Appeal Made for Fund Of
$500; Club Members Will
Do Necessary Work

The Junior Welfare club, Mrs.
G. C. Richardson. the president,
announced yesterday, is planning
to open a soup kitchen at the two
city schools for white children for
the undernourished pupils in at
tendance. The club hopes to start
it's project next Monday, and is
making an appeal to the public to
support it. Club members will
donate their time to the opera
ton Of kitchen at each of these
schools.
The club has made it's goal a
5000 fund with which to operate
on and in view of the urgent
need, will make an intensive cam
paign in an effort to raise this
money.
The need is an actual and, in
some instances, a pathetic one.
Two children, says Mrs. Richard
son, have tainted in school in
recent days, and this was attribut-
ed to hunger. One child had not
had anything to eat in "a hours,
it was said.
In setting forth the condition
and plans of the club, Mrs. Rich
ardson said:
"The Junior Welfare club is is
suing a plea to all our public
spirited citizens to help in launch
ing a campaign to raise a fund
of 5000 with which the club hopes
to feed all the undernourished
and underprivileged in the two
city schools.
"Club members have made a
thorough investigation of condi-
lions among the underprivileged
of the two white city schools and
have found conditions appalling.
We feel that not one person In
25 knows that there are in our
own city schools children who are
in dire need of nourishing food.
eve propose, if we can raise
the necessary cash, to establish a
soup kitchen in these two schools,
to be operated every day by the
members of the Junior Welfare
club. We are glad to give our
time in preparing and serving tins
food, but we must ask the people
| of Hendersonville to help US IL

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 6. (UP).
New York elected a Republican

the victory a complete repudia-
ton" of the New Deal by Presi-
dent Roosevelt's home state.
The Republicans, who made the
New Deal their chief campaign is

rect indication that Mr.. Roose'

The vote was a complete rebuke
to Postmaster General James A.

cratic chairman, who led his
party's drive.
Democrats, however, maintain
ed to the last the election was not
a test of New Deal strength. They
fought their campaign on purely
state issues, although Farley did
reply to the Republican New Deal
thrusts in his closing campaign ut

FINAL. CHECK SHOWS
EIGHT FATALITIES

MIAMI, Fla, Nov. 6.-(UP).-
East Florida's storm death toll
was raised to eight last night as
the tropical hurricane which
smashed across the peninsula curv-
ed back to menace the Gulf coast.
The federal hurricane warning
system, locating the storm at 9:3O
p. m. at 215 miles west-northwest
of Key West, ordered storm warn
ings hoisted from Cedar Keys to
Carrabelle, Fla.
The new warning came as re-
report of three more deaths were
added to the five already known
fatalities in the eastcoast play
ground battered by 100-mile-an-
hour winds Monday.
"The storm is showing recurv-
ing tendency, apparently moving
west-northwest or northwest, SIX
to 10 miles per hour" the $3.50 p.
m. advisory said.
According to G. E. Dunn, acting
forecaster at the federal hurrl-
cane warning bureau at Jackson
Vile, if the hurricane maintains
it's present curving tendency, the
coast area from the mouth of the
Mississippi river to Cedar Keys,
about midway on the Florida west
coast, will be the next danger
area.
If it continues its present speed,
high winds were expected to strike
the coast until sometime this fore
noon at the earliest, he said.
The two new deaths on the east
coast became known when How
ard Gates, 2O-year-old fisherman,
reached shore to describe the
drownings of Grady Slade, %, and
