With partisans Of both sides in the
conflict springing up to air their

Most important Of all considera'

European war, which peril, diplo-
mats believe, has grown since

A quick victory for Franco and

doc whose active aid made his
previous progress possible might
lave minimized that danger for
he time being. 49,.
But the entry Of foretg n
roops. including thousands OF
Germans and Aslians, with the
obvious cosopsration Of their gov
.rnments, has created a situation
where only foreign invasion in

S1nSolved in such division is notya question OF

by the direct voting of the people themselves? Inc
News and Observer believes that 1t is. Presumably
no conscientious citizen in North Carolina would
wish the government of North Carolina to take ae-
ton in any matter except in terms of the Will Oh
the people Today in North Carolina the presump-

SO expressed themselves. But if now the people do
wish pfphbition' onded, they should be allowed to
say so, and they alone. ", 81.
;nsarhere is no reason in the world for not SUBJ
hitting this question the people except the fear
of those who want prohibition ended and those who
want it restored completely that the voting might
result unfavorably. There is every reason in fair
play why system which was adopted by vote OF
the people should be ended only by a vote OF the
people. And as the question presents itself to the
State today it is not whether the people shall be
permitted legally to have liquor or not have 1t le-
gally but whether in North Carolina the people
shall be permitted to speak on question whieh

and Mr.. Skufca were taken from the
water without serious mishap.

Illegal Fishermen,

Hewitt-Breakup of an Illegal fishing
ring was seen last week with the arrest
and conviction of Wilfred and Isidore
Schaefer, both Of Richmond, on charges
of transporting and having game fish in
possession. The men were offered the
choice of paying fines of $500 and costs
or spending $50 days in jail. They were

East st. Cloud after they had already
sold some of the fish. At the time of
their arrest they had in their possession
100 crappies, lit sunfish, and 200 black
bass. According to Game Warden B.

other men $50 each, and reports indi-
cate that more than $500 was paid in
fines during one week for game law
