Four Cabinet members today
were preparing an earnest study
of the nations textile industry
ordered by President Roosevelt.
Representing a special commit.
tee to seek solution not only for
emergency conditions in the tex.
tile industry but a planned econ.
omy for the future, the Cabinet
members were Secretaries Hull,
Wallace, Roper and Perkins, rep
resenting the State, Agriculture,
Commerce and Labor depart,
ments, respectively.
President Roosevelt limited that
Federal loans to cotton mills to
replace obsolescent plants and
machinery with modern equip.
ment may be one of the results of
the study.
Four Phases of Problem
The problems to which the
President directed the Cabinet
committee to give special attention
were divided by him into four
phases, as follows.
l. Relation Of the processing
taxes to the present situation,
with recommendations whether
a substitute method of taxes
can be levied with less disturb
ance to the industry;
2. Wage differentials between
Northern and Southern mills:
3. Cotton cloth imports and
their possible injurious effect on
American industry. This con-
Germs chiefly Japanese competi-
ton;
4. The prevailing price of raw
cotton, pegged by Government
loans, with the effect on domes.
tic consumption.
The second half of the study will
involve the possibility of a long.
range plan to stabilize the textile
business.
Condition of Plants
In this connection, the commit.
tee has been directed by the
President 10 analyze the physical
condition of textile plants, to de.
termine the degree of obsolescence
among them and the degree of
their operating efficiency.
It also will consider plans for
establishing credit needed by the
older mills in providing plant re.
placements where needed.
The President, at his press con.
ference, expressed the belief that
the RFC would have authority to
extend such credit.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
BUILT ON A ROCK

Last Saturday night citizen of North Carolina
United States senator, Mr.. Bailey, addressed the
New England society of Charleston and said that as
long as he was senator not one inch of the power
of the State of North Carolina would be yielded to
the federal government
He said that the rights of American citizens, to
life to own property, to pursue happiness were III
the federal constitution because they are 'inalien
able" that they are God-given rights, that the
founding fathers wrote the constitution not for
generation but for a thousand years. for all gen.
erations.
He said that the South between 1861 and 1865
lost war but that IL years later the supreme
court declared in the civil rights" decision that
the rights of the states within the Union had not
been impaired, that the South won on that issue III
the war.
1t was remarkable address. No congressman of
South Carolina has delivered one like it in forty
years. Why, Mr.. Bailey even alluded with approval
to John Calhoun, senator, who we believe
everyone will agree, has been repudiated by the
modern politicians and statesmen of South Caro-
lima. Beyond that, he rejected the new theory OF
economic liberty" by which government would
become warmer and fattener of citizens, this
liberty" dspacing the old-time liberty of a maa
to be his master.
The speech was so strange in its declarations,
unqualified, straightout, that one recalled Demo-
Gratis like Lamar and Ben Hill and Wade Hampton.
More amazing than the opinions and principles
that this senator declared the disclosure that
there is an American, Southern senator, familiar
with the constitution, with the history of it. with
the history of the struggle of the people, the Eng
lsh and Scottish forbears of Americans, to save
inalienable rights from the encroachments and the
tyranny of kings and bureaucrats. Here was a
Southern senator who has read books, who knows
something more than the quiddties of "parliamen-
tary law" who has studied and has scholarly a.
tainments.
North Carolina has sent to Washington gentle
man who would not be out of place in the senate
were it the most august deliberative body in the
world. We infer from Mr.. Bailey's address that he
could not be bought, not even by the offer or the
prospect of seat on the supreme bench in
well paid commission if at any time the North
Carolinans should refuse to re-elect him. Anyway,
he surely is not offering himself to the high bidder
! The craftsmanship of J. w. Bailey is built a

ST. PAUL, Dec. 27. (UP).-
Minnesota paid final tribute yes

Also paving tribute to Schalfs
memory was a two-year- old Ger

been the blind senator's "eyes" to
guide him through the traffic to
which he was a victim. The dog
gently placed wreath at the cof-

Hundreds braved the bitter cold
to stand outside the Lakewood

neral services were conducted by
the Rev. Charles Fox Davis of the
Methodist Episcopal church, and
the Masonic lodge. Silently they
stood with bowed heads in the

for more than 20 years. Then
"taps" echoed clearly through the
crisp air.
