State directors to reject any pay
scales which propose wages below the
present prevailing union rates Tor
work generally performed under union

We have again taken precautions
to assure to all workers free exercise
Of their right to bargain collectively.
In fortnight terms our regulations
guarantee this right to labor.
In order to spread the dement's OF
work, and at the same time provloe
each worker with living wage, we
have made several important condi-

prohibiting contractors from placing
on pay rolls those otherwise en-

American labor has received from the

IMPETUS IS GIVEN
FARM PROBLEMS
Wallace and G. o. P. Sound
er See Leanings Toward
Program.

The farm problem" as q political
issue, received new impetus yesterday
as Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
granted a political interview to the
Associated Press, and Robert H. Lucas,
Republican sentiment sounder, talked
in q different direction, but in sub
stantial agreement with the Demo-
cratic spokesman.
Wallace. just returned from swing
through the West, declared about IS
per cent of the farmers would favor
alteration of the Constitution if neces-
sary to retain the A. A. A. program.
Tariff Opposition Gains.
'There is general and rising SEN
timent among the farmers against
the protective tariff" the Secretary
said. Concerning their attitude
toward court attacks on the Adjust
ment Administration, was told that
II we are 'Schechtered' about 10 per
cent of the farmers would favor en-
actment of the old McNary- -Haugen
farm program, about per cent
wouldn't know what they would want
and the remainder would want to
change the Constitution"
At the same time, Lucas made the
admission that "the farmer has to
be cared for" Receiving replies from
$500 Republican leaders in response
to QUESTIONABLE, Lucas, who is
former executive director of the Re-
publican National Committee, said:
Those who wrote me on the SUBJ
ject said they did not necessarily feel
that the party should stand by the
A. A. A., but that something just
as good or better must be offered.
Finding that formula is our biggest
job"
McNary Declaration.
A similar declaration was made
short while ago by Senator McNary
of Oregon, minority leader in the
Senate.
Lucas said the farm issue IS more
important than the constitutional
issue since the former represents a
problem yet to be solved. He re-
peated his belief, however, that any
of the leaders in his candidate pref

Of Kansas could defeat Mr..
Roosevelt.
Secretary. Wallace. who is leaving
today for Athens, Ga, made light of
current criticism of the Democratic
administration.
In the third year Of any admin
istration there is a mounting cresendo
of criticism which reaches its apex
in the Spring of the fourth year.
This is the essence Of political cam
paigns. In the case of this admins

In general, the policies safeguarding

years, will be faithfully followed in the

We have found the observance of

Western North Carolina, and par
ticularly Henderson and Transyl-
vania counties, is the location of a
large number of summer camps for
boys and girls of grammar school
age. The summer camp business IS
now one of the leading businesses
in this area and hundreds of boys
and girls from practically all Sec
tons of the nation come here for
several months each summer.
The mountain section of Western
North Carolina offers ideal climatic
and scenic conditions for approx
mately 40 camps. Among the su-
pervised activities are horseman-
ship, hiking, archery, tennis, golf,
swimming, boating and canoeing,
baseball, basketball, nature study,
rifle craftsmanship, instruction IN
arts and crafts, dramatics and
many other activities.
The summer camps in many cases
are located on privately owned
lakes and most of the camps own
extensive mountain property. The
camps are supervised by men and
women with long experience, and
adequate medical facilities are pro-
vided.

New Streamiining
First glance reveals a marked de-
velopment in the art of scientific
tear drop sueamlining. Streamlin-
ing Of radiator, hood, lamps, fem
ders and Fisher solid steel bodies,
has produced an ensemble of clean,
flowing lines, with an absence Of
bumps or projections. Although
stylish, it does not cross the border
line of smart taste"
From the standpoint of appear
anee as well as construction. the
solid steel Fisher body, used for the
first time by Pontiac in 1885, Is the
major feature of the new Pontiac.
1t is claimed that Fisher solid steel
bodies are superior in the distribu-
ton of the steel in the interest of
greater safety, as well as the salts
tying style, comfort, room and con-
venience THAT accompany superior
safety.
Appropriately borrowing a term
from the naval architect, this body
is called the "Tmret-Top With a
hint of ruggedness and dependable
ity, when viewed from the front or
rear, it distinctly approaches the
design of a torpedo. One of the
most finished bits of artisanship is
in the slight taper of the body and
rear tenders.
Pontiac engineers say the new
bodies are quiet and that in test
runs last summer, when the wealth
er was above 100 degrees, the tenn
perature inside the solid steel bodies
registered below that in the conven-
tional slat-roof type.

SIX TO STRAIGHT EIGHT LINES

Owners of 1885 Pontiac skies and
straight etghts will have a choice
standard and deluxe models.
The wheelbase of the six is 112
inches as compared with 1T inches
for the eight. In appearance, II
duplicates closely the modern
streamlining of the eight.
Five distinctive body styles are
offered on the standard six. The
models with bodies by Fisher, in
clude: 2-door and 4-door sedans;
2-door and 4-door touring sedans
with built-in trunks, and standard
coupe.
Both Pontiac chassis have ample
power for the modern mode of high
speed travel. The siX-cylinder en-
CINE develops 81 horsepower at 65
miles an hour, while the straight
eight delivers "a horsepower at 10
miles an hour.
A comparison of the straight eight
with that of last year, reveals many
Improvements an d refinements
that also are included in the new
six.
Briefly, they are: marked

Two-door sedans on the six cylin-

hinged at the lower edges and may
be pushed forward to permit easy
entrance to the rear seat. Door
widths in 2-door models have been
increased from 4213 to 49,, while
IN the 4-door models, the increase

have introduced another important
innovation in the built-in enclosure

requiring more luggage space will
find it in the 2-door and 4-door
