IS 1T WORTH $4,000?

The States second tuberculosis sanato-
rum, if erected, is to be located in Bun
combe county, according to announcement
made last Saturday by the site committee.
Accompanying the announcement was a
statepent by the site committee giving req
sons for selecting the Buncombe county site
and for not selecting the site offered in
Henderson county. ... ..
The Buncombe county site must be good
if it is worth $4,000 more than the Hen
derson site. That, however. does, not tel
the whole story The State msst pay ap-
proximately $4,000 as part of the price OF
the Buncombe site, while the Henderson
site was offered free. 1t would not have
cost the State dollar for a site in Hender
son county, and a water. connection costing
around $4,000 would also have been pro.
vided without cost to the State. In select,
ing the Buncombe site the State begins with
an expenditure of $4,000 for site.
The Henderson site consists of 159 acres
with more land available if needed. The
Buncombe site consists Of 176 acres. The
Henderson site is situated on first elias,
highway and railroad, and in this particn
lar it is certain the Buneombe site is no
superior to the Henderson site. The Hem
derson site is situated about the same dis
lance from Ashsville as, the Buncombe site
Perhaps the committee made, gooe

ably what was accomplished was the loca

THE IDEALS OF A NEWSPAPER MAN

Walter Williams, born country boy ID
Missouri, who began life as a."deylf IN a
country weekly newspaper otticeS VINO
founded the school of journalism at the
University of Missouri and ended his Ca
reer as president of that great educatlonai
institution, is dead. DR.. Williams was one
of the most distinguished journalists IN the
world, but the character Of the man Is IN
dictated by the fact that he preferred,t to De
known as a newspaper man. Much, space
would be necessary to list the honors con-
ferred on DIR. Williams in this and other
countries and to put down the record OF
his long and active life, but quotation
from his Newspaper Creed affords an
impressive illustration of the ideals of the
man. In the Greed" DIR. Williams says:
believe that the journalism which succeeds
best-and best deserves succesS-fears God and
honors man; is ssoutly independent, unmoved by
pride of opinion or greed of power, constructive,
tolerant but never careless; Self-controlled, pa
tent always respectful of its readers, but always
unafraid; is quickly indignant at injustice is un-
swayed by the appeal of privilege or the clamor
of the mob; seeks to give every man chance
and as far as law and honest wage and recOgni-
ton of human brotherhood can make it SO, an
equal chance; is profoundly patriotic while sim
eerely promoting international goodwill and &C.
menting world eomradeship; is journalism or
humanity, of and for today's world.
The foregoing is platform upon which
every newspaper of character and courage
and high ideals can: and should stand. The
great newspapers of the country are con-
trolled and guided by such principles.
Those newspapers existing on lower planes
are, in varying degrees, the newspapers
which are failing to influence and serve iii

WHAT NO ONE Knows

In Washington are tens of thousands of federal
officeholders great and small, but we doubt if
there be one of them who knows what the New
Deal is costing how the money is spent. DR..
Rexford Guy Tugwell, for example, takes over a
new agency of the New Deal and instantly it is
trumpeted that he will discharge 1000 or 5000
salary drawers. That goes to show that DR.. Tug
well is an important man Jealous to economic, to
prevent waste of the taxpayers money-but it also
goes to show that if 5000 persons have been draw
ing an average of 500 month and performing no
necessary service, $S0O,O00 month has been vast
ed. How long has this been going on? 1t may have
been going on Near-no one knows, or, at any
rate, no one says. DR.. Tugwel deserves praise
but does it not appear that praise for him is a
condemnation for some other people in the New

townsfolk liked him though they
laughed at him.
On one occasion he had rushed
to the assistance Of a neighbor
whose house was on fire. Harry
was on the roof fighting the
flames. Between his teeth he held
a big black cigar. Absorbed in his

out. Suddenly discovering the fact,
he picked up a burning single,
calmly relighted the weed, and
pulled at it until he got it going;
then he resumed his fire-fghting.

"Type High" is expression used
in every printing office. When let
ter or an illustration is not type
high" it does not print clearly. 1t is
necessary for the printer to build
up to the standard heighth of the
type. When this is done clear
print is secured. Sometimes the let
ter or the illustration is only very
little below standard heighth, few
hundredths of an inch, so little that
the eye cannot detect it, but no
matter how little it is, a perfect
print cannot be secured until the
low spots are brought up to stand
ard heighth. We often see men
like that. To all intents and pur-
poses they are good citizens, OBJ
serving the law and living up
rightly but when test comes, when
the pressure is put on them, they
back down or yield to wrong influ-
ence and wrong desire. They are
not type high" We find them in
all walks of life, in high and low,
among the officers of the law and
among the masses. AS long as things
roll along smoothly their low spots
never reveal themselves but when
temptation comes, with its easy
money and the lure of fame and
recognition, they break down. Their
cheapness and shaIlowness and self
fishness and shoddiness reveal
themselves. They do not register
true. They are not type high"
