Further Report Asked
On Bombing Of Kane
International News Service

Still not thoroughly satisfied
with the answers of the Madrid
government or insurgent leaders,
the State Department indicated
today that it probably will make
further representations to both
sides in the Spanish civil war to
explain more satisfactorily their
connections, if any, with the "myS-
terry" airplane which bombed the
American destroyer Kane on AL
gust 80.
Secretary of State Hull ex-
pressed dissatisfaction with both
the red denial of any connection
with the unidentified bomber and
the white admission that the at
lacking plane might have been an
insurgent ship.

$500 Vote Strike
AT Humble S Plant

GOOSE CREEK, Tex, Sept. II.
Union employees Of the Humble
refining Company's refinery at
Baytown voted last night to
90 on strike. The refinery has
about $500 employees. The vote
was taken after the company re-
fused to meet the unions demands
for a 10-cent-an-hour wage in

motions, and closed shop.

thereby constantly enlarges
achievement. 1t is the system
which carries chronological adj
vance to its logical conclusion
of lower prices and increased
mass consumption.
The system is not inconsistent
with social responsibility.
Labor May Organize
Within this system modern
instruments for the relief Of
the unfortunate and the handi-
capped have been established
and can be expanded. Within
this system labor may organize
and exercise it's rights to bar
gain collectively. Progressively
wise distribution Of wealth need
not be an insoluble problem, If
we but persist in the policy
which produces an abundant
store of wealth to distribute
among the people.
Holding these views, it is no
more possible for the Sun to give
its support to Hooverism or to
Old Guardism than to give sup
port to RooSeveltiSm.
This question now presents
itself: Where does Governor
Landon stand? Does he propose
merely to take over what is
left of the New Deal and to
administer it more economically?
Does he propose to revert to
HooveriSm? Or does he stand
for genuinely free competition?
1t can be argued, with some
effectiveness, that if he stands
merely for economical admin
istration of the New Deal, some

nation. The Sun was opposed
to the concept and to the details.
OppOsed Gold Policy

Opposed GOLd POLLcy
We opposed the Presidents
gold policy, which was a part
of the concept, and we think his
later caution proved the wisdom
of opposition. We opposed the
silver policy. We opposed the
price-fixing, production-control-
ling national recovery act. We
opposed AAA and it's blowing
under of food products. We
protested the truculent message
with which Mr.. Roosevelt in
July, 1888, wrecked the world
economic conference.
Moreover, in those special I'M
dertakings in which Mr.. Roose-
welt has been right in purpose,
it has been necessary to criticize
practice. Relief, CWA and WPA
have been extravagant. Unem-
ployment insurance and old-age
pensions, which are necessary
and long overdue, have been
b a dly organized. iva has
passed beyond the status of a
power yardstick at Muscle Shoals
and threatens to become a Gov
eminent octopus.
The Sun stands for competi-
tive capitalism. It is the sys-
tenn which most effectively up
roots the unfit. the unworthy,
the lazy. 1t is the system which
gives place to the vigorous, the
competent, the purposeful. 1t
is the system which constantly
provides room for originality and

support the fortunate and the
unfortunate alike.
If Governor Landon speaks
in clear and bold terms, facing
specific problems and taking his
stand unequivocally on the side
of this true economic liberalism,
the Sun will support him, no
matter what his prospects may
be. If he does not speak in clear
terms, the Sun intends to con-
tinue to fight for ideas that it
believes to be sound and in the
interests of the people.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1936-09-11

thing would be gained by his
election.
Enterprise Undermined
There is little ground for en-
thusiasm over merely frugal
Roosevelt.
No effectual steps could be
looked for to break down re-
straints on trade. Enterprise
would be undermined with con-
sequent undermining of employ
ment, as at present, and relief
charges would continue to be
a burden and a danger, as at
present.
Does Governor Landon believe
that the fundamental policy to
which the Government should
commit itself is a genuine COM
petitive system, with such liberal
adjustments in tariff policies,
debt policies, credit policies, cur
rent sterilization policies, law

Shall we have social RESPONSE
bility? An emphatic yes. Shall
We have old-age pensions? Yes.
Shall We have unemployment

the helpless, the unfortunate,
the handicapped? Yes. But,
as the sure foundation of it all,
let us restore and preserve the
system which produces in abun-
dance the wealth with which we

enforcement policies and labor
policies as will promote the kind
of competition that is healthy
and real?
In the Suns opinion, there is
reason to believe that he does.
His brief confession of faith at
his birthplace pointed in that
direction and there have been
hints and indications in other
speeches, as in certain of his
acts before he became a candi-
date.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1936-09-11

Within so days the people
must make their choice in the
presidential election. It is,
therefore, incumbent upon those
who undertake to address
themselves to public opinion to
give expression to their views.
The Sun now states that in
this campaign it is unable to
advocate the reelection of PreSi-
dent Roosevelt.
Made With Regret
This statement is made with
regret.
Standing at the crossroads
and looking back over three
years, memories of gallantry
arise in the mind and they
make criticism an unpleasant
task. But we cannot close our
eyes to what we conceive to
have been fundamental errors
in Mr.. RooseVelt's policies.
In April, 1888, Mr.. Roosevelt
began to turn away from the
spirit, and to a large extent the
letter, of his platform and from
the spirit of his first acts as
President. He inaugurated the
New Deal and he based it upon
vaguely formed and superfici-
ally considered ideas of planned
economy. These ideas were di-
rected toward nationaliStic linn
itation Of economic life and
toward overriding Federal con-
troll of economic life within this

it is good to hear that Guilford

PLANNING YEARS WORK
/ attended a meeting of the IL
home agents in the northwestern
district last week who came to-
gether with specialists an ddistrict
agent to make plans for 1887.
It was good to see that in addi-
ton to plans for the regular food,
clothing, and home management
projects, the coming of rural cleo
trical lines was bringing demon
STATIONS of the use of electrical
conveniences; that community
recreation was planned for most
of the counties; and travelling Ii

farm home has and a planning for
its needs.

eyes. ,,
Their accuracy changed little
despite loss of sleep. But increas-
ingiy they struck "blank" laps
es when they looked at the prob
lem of, say, 7 minus a, and took
some time before answering
"three."
These lapses occurred 90 per
cent of the time at the start and
scared to 1875 per cent at the end
of so hours without sleep. Then
to the scientists surprise, at the
end of IS hours without sleep,
when the students should have
been weariest, their scores snap
ped back to lib per cent.
MENTAL SPRINT
OCCURS
This squirt, psychologists say,
proved that the students brains
were carrying on in normal fash
ion, but that, with the promise OF
sleep only few hours ahead, the
students turned on all their lag
cling powers of concentration and
"sprinted" mentally for the final
test.
Difficulty in concentrating
when a person is tired, scientists
said, probably is due to fatigue
poisons gathering in the blood
supplying the brain cells.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. A.
UIP1-That South America re-
cards the United States with more
SINCERE frienainess now than at
anv time in the past hundred
years, is the declaration of DR..
DR. Geo. A. Miller, for 20 years a
resident of Latin American coun-
tries and for ~ years bishop OF
the Methodist diocese of Santiago,
Chile.
DR.. Miller, who has been re-
tired, is devoting his time to a Sc
ries of lectures in an effort to I'M
prove Latin American relations.
He is the author of several books
on South American countries.
"Thepe are room and resources
in South America for 250,OOO.OO0,
people,r declares DR.. Miller, land
within century Argentina Will
become one of the first line pow
ers of the world.
"There is every reason for Gull
tivating good relations as fhuch Do
possible with these young, vigor-
Gus, ,virile, rich and fast-growlng
republics of the South. They are
today our best prospects for allies
and friends in everything that
makes for world peace and prog
ress." ,oo
DR.. Miller points out that 100
wears ago, the new independent
countries of Latin America looked
to the United States for leader
shin and encouragement and re-
parded the Monroe doctrine as an
assurance of friendly cooperation.
This era of good will, he says,
lasted until 1895, when Secretary
Olney issued a statement to the
effect that the Omitted States is
practically sovereign on this con-
tinent and it's fiat is law on the
subjects to which it confines its
interpretations"

The Begin family of Arson who
took part in the improvements
named their revamped home,
"The federal building" because
said Mrs. Begin: "My husband got
the funds for the improvements
through his government bonus
money and | learned how to make
the improvements through home
demonstration work.
THE SPIRIT COUNTS
When the home agent OF Jones
county arrived at the home OF Mrs
d. C. Collins, in the Brick Kiln
section, to hold a club meeting,
She found the two young daugh-
tiers in the pack house tying to-
bacco; and that they might not
miss the meeting, all Of the mem
bers came down to the pack house.
Mrs. Collins was getting a new
home built, and she seemed so
anxious to have help in planning
it that club members agreed to
postpone the regular demonstra-
ton and talk about house plans.
Mrs. Collins was persuaded to
put the pump and sink in the
kitchen instead of on the back
porch and then together the group
planned the convenient arrange
ment of kitchen equipment, the
colo rscheme and what could be
done about furnishings for the
girls room.
1t proved to be one of the most
interesting and worthwhile meet
ings ever held in the county.
"With the canning that has been
done in Pasquotank county this
year, we have we'll stocked pair
tries which will 60 far toward Civ
ing the family better balanced
meals through the winter" says
the home agent. Canned prod
ucts supplemented by the winter
gardens furnish means of keep
ing the whole family in more
healthful condition"
Her pantry is an interesting
sight. There are 1910 quarts OF
canned vegetables and fruits or
her shelves, and last year she
bought only two quarts of dried
/ beans in the vegetable line anC
got these because her daughter
asked for them. Mrs. Hewitt:
garden and canned products sup
piled the other needed vegetables
Mrs. Rufus Hewitt of the New
land club, holds the canning RECORD

BOND BETWEEN
TWO AMERICAS NOW HELD
MOST SINCERE IN 100 YEARS

Stick" policy of President Theo-
dore Roosevelt gave offense 10
South Americans.
However, when in 1929" says
the bishop, Secretary OF State
Hughes drew clear distinction
between the Monroe Doctrine and
the u. S A. Caribbean policy
better spirit began.
"The withdrawal of the marines
from Nicaragua and Haiti, the ab,
ropation of the Platt Amendment
reSardinp Cuba, and the new
treatv with Panama have changed
tbe attitude of most South Amer
leans toward the United States"
He points out that the goodwill
tour of President-elect Hoover in
1928 also made a lasting impress
sion for good, while the attitude
of Secretary of State Cordell Hull
at the Montevidea Pan-American
conference in 1888 convinced all
delegates of the good faith of the
United States in its declarations
of friendliness.
BUSINESS ATTITUDE
CHANGES
american business men were
slow to adapt themselves to South
American conditions and habits, a
matter now remedied by represen-
tatives of American manufactur-
ers and exporters" DR.. Miller
saws. "Our high tariff exclusion
policy has, of course, not made us
popular and some of the bank
loans on which South American
countries have defaulted were sold
to borrowers by high-pressure
sales methods"
But he declares that most OF
these unfavorable factors are dis
appearing. American business, he
believes, is now regarded with IA
vor in every South American
country.
