bookkeeping fact is that by far
the greatest part of so-called

lending. The plain truth is that
despite all the alarms raised large

Raleigh, June 1.-The contest for
the Democratic nomination for secre-
tary of state is becoming more brisk
as the date for the primary nears and
is regarded as one of the closest fights
of the campaign. It is one of the few
contests for major State office which
has not iceen completely overshadow-
ed by the campaign for the guberna-
torial nomination.
There are three candidates for the
nomination. as follows: Stacey w
Wade, the incumbent; Thad Eure, of
Winton and Raleigh and M. r. (Mike)
Dunnagan, of Winston-Salem, and Ra-
leigh Wade is just completing his
first four-year term as secretary of
state, having been elected in 1892 by
the largest majority ever given a
minor State official--a majority of
288 523, according to the 1885 Legisla
tive Manual. He defeated the late
James A. Hardness for the nominal
ton in the 1882 primary. Wade also
was elected twice as commissioner of
insurance, the first time in 1920 and
the second time in 1924 and prior to
1920 had been deputy commissioner
of insurance under Commissioner J.
r. Young. He resigned as commits
siorer of insurance in 1927 to enter
private business and was in the bank
ing and insurance business from 1927
to 1882 Because of the fact that he

major State office and is we'll known
to the people of the State, many are
inclined to believe he has consider
aisle advantage in the election Satur-
day and that he has an excellent
chance to be renominated
The candidate regarded as the
most serious threat to Wade is Thad
Eure, who was clerk of the House in
the last thee sessions of the General
Assembly and a member of the 1929
Assembly, and FOR several years en-
plOyed to collect escheats for the Uni
versity of North Carolina. Eure is the
younger of three candidates, being
only 81 years old, and is conceded to
have been waging an intensive State
wide campaign for the nomination.
Most observers agree that Eure is
going to give Wade very tight fight,
while those who are supporting Eure
maintain he will win the nomination
in spite of Wade'S longer service in
public office and his canny political
ability. The vigorous campaign Eure
has made, combined with the trenG
towards newer and younger men for
State officials, will enable Eure to
win over Wade, a good many are

Growing Empire
Weighing actual statistics in the
light of the information I gained on
my trip, am very optimistic on this
vast section of our country 1t is en-
dowed with vitality important natural
resources. Crops are becoming more
and more diversified. Mineral pro-
duction is going ahead by leaps and
bounds. 1t has good shipping ports for
the expectation of it's products. It is
fast acquiring new industrial plants,
giving employment to a growing num-
Der of people. The future of it's pulp

very bright.
Conclusion.
With business in the nation as a.
whole IL per cent above a year ago,
according to the BabSonchart, these
great Southwestern states are now en-
Dying the best business in six years
Comparatively speaking, conditions
there are very favorable. The region
should rapidly head into a new era
of prosperity if the people awaken
to the great opportunities within their
grasp. Remember that this Southwest
ern country is in the middle of the
path upon which our center of popu-
lation is now moving.

s. Louis. Mo, June 5.-The ques-
+ion ON evcrybody's lips today is:
nuov's business? Are we getting
hack to prosperous times " The an
e,yers that YOU will receive will be
varied. depending upon local condi-
.ions Ask the business man in GER
tain sections of the Northeast, and
HE answer will be No" In other To-
calities you will be told there is a
noticeable improvement. On my re-
cont trip thOroughout the Southwest
the reply in nine cases out of the was
definitelv Yes" Farmers, merchants.
livestock rasers, oil and lumber men.
bankers. and editors are all far more
cheerful down there than they were
Two yeals ago.
Farm Income Scars
The biggest reason for this change
IN sentiment is the sharp gain in farm
income in the Southwest. Crop values
during 1885 made the following gains
over 1884. Arizona nine percent, Ar
kansas one per cent, Louisiana six
nor cent. New Mexico five per cent,
Oklahoma p per cent, Texas Ii per
cent, AQQ 10 llcSG Increases Ill crop
income the AAA rental and benefit
nayments received from Franklin
Roosevelt and you will arrive at
very handsome figure. For example,
during 1885 such government pay
ments ranged from $1,2S6,0 to Ari-
IONA farmers to as high as $52,435,-
600 to Texans.
As to the crop prospects this year,
finite forecasts The above area as a
whole escaped the tragic drought and
wind storms that devaSted large sec
tions of the agricultural states to the
north last year. Only a small portion
Of the southwest has been seriously
hurt " unfavorable weather so far
this Spring. These areas are in Louis
lana and the region generally known
as the Dust Bowl" Recent rains,
however, have considerably improved
moisture conditions Generally speak
ing. the crop outlook for 1886 in the
Southwest is good at current writing.
This especially applies to Arkansas.
Pine Forests vs.. Corn Fields
Another major reason for good bus
mess in this area is the tremendous
improvement in livestock. The value
of the leading farm animals in Texas,
for example increased nearly 70 per
cent from 1888 to 1885. Livestock con-
dtions this year are generally fair

ago was Raleigh newspaper cor
respondent, though now a resident of
Winston-Salem, is a native of Yadkin

bid for the vote of the Democrats in

generally conceded that Dunnagan

during the last few months and that,

people thought he would when he first

lief in most circles is thath e will not

The office Of secretary of state is
much more important than many peo-
pie realize. He is the custodian of all
the laws of the State and no new laws
can become effective until certified by
him. He also has the custody of all
the original laws as passed by the
General Assembly, of the House and
Senate journals, the Supreme Court
reports and records He is also the
custodian of election returns after
they are compiled and certified by
the State Board of Elections.
The Secretary of State also issues
all certificates of Incorporation in the
State must keep a record of all cor
porations domesticated in the State,
also of the process agents of all for
eign corporations doing business in
the State. He likewise is in charge of
keeping all the records of land grants
in the state and has authority to
make such grants. When the legisia-
ture is in session, the Secretary of
State is in charge of the enrolment
of all new laws enacted and none of
these laws can become effective until
enrolled and so certified by him.
One of the most important duties
of the secretary of state is as a mem
her of the Council of State, of which
he is ranking member 1t is the ad-
visory body of the governor and tue
governor cannot call a special session
of the General Assembly or borrow
money On the States credit without
the approval of the Council of State.
The secretary of state is also
member of the Local Government
Commission and it's vice chairman, of
the State Board of Education, of the
State Library Commission, is chair
man of the World War Veterans Loan
Fund Commission, and acting head of
the Board of Public Buildings and
Grounds, in charge of the mainten-
ance and upkeep of all state property
and buildings in Raleigh. He must
sign and attest all commissions and
appointments made by the governor
