TOURIST INDUSTRY
WILL AID BUSINESS
Greatest Travel Season In
History Pictured This
Year by Roberts.

Charlotte. JAN 4-Better economic
conditions in the Caroinas in 1886
will be brought about by an increase
i'm the tourist industry, in the opinion
of Coleman w. Roberts. president of
the Carolina Motor Club. North and
South Carolina may anticipate the
greatest travel season in history,
judging from the interest being mani
tested in the Carolinas throughout
the nation, and this will be a tremen
dous factor in lettering conditions,
Mr.. Roberts said.
"Whle the Carolinas enjoyed an es-
timated 100000 travel business last
year, California benefited to the ex-
tent of 1892, 900 from the travel
industry, he said. '"This was an in
crease of 22.5 per cent in volume over
1884 and 31.5 per cent increase in re-
venue for California.
These figures are mentioned to
cite the potentialities of the travel in
dustry in the Carolinas. Although we
are so near the great centers of pop
ulation, wealth and travel-minded
people. vat we are suffering for lack
of proper lid consistent advertising
of our resort and recreational areas.
In spite of this backwardness we are
going to experience in 1886 one of the
greatest if not the greatest tourist
season we have ever had and it must
be borne in mind that this business
does not just happen It was plan
ned. The Carolina Motor Clubs per-
sisten effort of the past IS months to
awaken travel agencies of the nation
to the advantages Of the Carolinas is
bringing results.
THE Carolinas Scenic and His
toric Tour conducted by the Caro-
lima Motor Club last October is maxi
ing the nation NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. For
instance in New York on January II
at 5:15 p. m. one of the largest travel
agencies in the world will have a dis
play of screen colored motion pictures
and a lecture on the Great Smoky
Mountains This just the beginning
of acquainting the nation with our
mountain, sandhill and seashore re-
sorts.
Intensive efforts to promote the
travel industry throughout the Caro-
linas will be continued by the Caro-
lima Motor Club on a permanent basis
and all sections of the two states will
benefit from this activity

Coach Skidmore is likewise planning

need experience badly. There is very
little let-up in the 23-game schedule
together with the Southern Confer
ence tournament early in March. That
means that Carolina will have to turn

The Campaign Is On

While Connecticut may think that the problem of the county jail is confined to this state alone, that is far from the case There is now a national movement atoot to abolish the county jail The American Prison Association is behind the drive and no doubt if it feels that Connecticut is in the mood to listen attentively to the plans it might bring all its influence to bear on the next Legislature. However, in that direction there is going to be con- siderable weight brought by many Con- necticut citizens who are vltally mter- eSted in this campaign.
 The American Prison Association plans that "In lieu of jailS, where it is charged nearly one-half of the repeating criminals were produced, there will be development of State-controlled regional institutions, camps and farms for Short-term law violators and lazy ne'er do-wellS and hos pitalS and clinics for drunkardS, drug addictS, and mental cases. For it's success this program necessarily means that such institutions, farms, etc., be ade- quately staffed by trained administrators and specialists and be supplemented by an indeterminate sentence law and satiS- factory probation, parole and prisoners aid organization. -"
 In our own particular case we are more interested in the jail farm as a substitute for the county jail. But it's question whether or not they could be abolished without drawing the fire of party leaders who realize that one more blow is being struck at party machines and organizations by loss of the jails. But something has to be done in this state. If it's a question of dollars and cents, then the jail farm wins, for it will cost far less to install than to bring our present county jails up to efficiency.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-09-22
They'll Be Checked

The service director of big automobile company issues some timely warnings about autumn driving. We're accustomed to getting few sermons along this line from the State Motor Vehicle Department and, let it be said to their credit, good many Connecticut motorists faithfully try to live up to all the injunctions issued. We know that there's apt to be lot of rain and a consequent falling of leaves from trees bordering on highways. Noth- ing is Slipperier than wet highway coated with wet leaves.
 A great many cars are on the roads, too, at this time of the year. This is par ticularly true here in New England where we are trying to sell the natural advan- tages and resources of our countryside In the fall of the year. As a consequence the driver must be more constantly on the alert for passing and approaching vehicles, not to mention the many that will be parked here and there along the routes that are of scenic nature. All things combine to make driving as peril ous as at any time in the year.
 Add to .theSe the warning that wind shield wiperS should be checked, brakes inspected, headlight and tail lamps ad- justed, refocuSSed, etc., and you sort of bring Connecticut motorists down to earth. This is the time of the year when the second inspection of motor vehicles is taking place. The lines are forming, so we advise each and every motoriSt not to wait until the last week to have their cars checked up by the inspectors. Of course if you don't intend to have your car approved, that's your problem to be dealt with as you see fit, but we're sup posed to be cooperating in these semi annual checks, so why not lend hand by putting the car in shape now and hay ing the official seal pasted on the wind shield.

The National Congress of Parents and Teachers wants ban placed on toy guns for children. The PIT Association has started many worthwhile reforms in the United States, notably one of recent months when it compelled many commer- cial users of the air waves to moderate the tone and type of program that was intended for juvenile ears. There is still much to be done, though, in this field, as the air waves still are cluttered with pro- grams that do far more harm than good among youthful listeners. The matter ot toy guns for kids is serious problem that must be tackled carefully. We do think there are too many of them on the market today and parents cater too willingly to their children's desires to possess each and every variety. The grow ing boy should have gun, if he so de- sires, but in giving him this weapon of destruction he must be made fully con- scious of what it is and what harm may be done with it. However, the mad craze for guns of every description is simply commercialization of the rankest type.

Democracy

In Adolf Hitler's remarkable speech to the Maxi party congress in Nuremberg, none of his "wild, whirling words" were more astonishing than these: "No nation was ever created by democracy" Isn't the United States of America nation? And if it isn't a democracy, what is it? Perhaps the term republic" was more appropriate in its infancy; but with the lapse of time and the increase of personal liberty accomplished within the limits of the original Constitution, it surely de- serves the more liberal term.
 What about ancient Rome, most power ful nation in the world for centuries2 Rome was called a republic before it be- came an empire under the Caesars, but in it's youthful vigor was democratic. And surely there can be no question, in the mind of anyone who has read little history, that the ancient Greek race in its most brilliant period, which has never been surpassed before or since by any nation, was composed of group of gen. uine democracieS.
 Indeed, it was the Greeks who invented both the democratic form of government and the word for 1t. As for our own free government, it will still be here, operating as usual, when autocrats like Hitler are forgotten.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-09-22
Business As Usual

A business writer, not concerned with politics, mentions some of last weeks business high lights as follows: A 20 per cent increase in electric power production over last year, the largest volume of rail- road freight in five years, gain of nearly IS per cent in retail sales over the same week last year, the highest level for common stocks in five years, a notably high average for corporation bonds and government obligations, further impor- tations of gold from France, the com modity index and cost of foodstuffs almost stationery.
 Evidently the political campaign is not interfering with business, as 1t would ordinarily be expected to do. The latter goes on not merely as usual, but better khan usual. The conclusion seems ines capable that this is real recovery, a Kroundswell that cannot be stopped even by hostoric struggle over public policies

Norwalk city fathers have decided not to experiment with parking meters. It had been proposed to install number in the business sections to try out this new means of preventing traffic congestion and all-day parking. Mayor Frank T. Stack of Norwalk calls the meters simply another tax on local citizens. He claims that they are taxed enough today and does not want to be responsible for saddling another tax on them. That is, ot course, one way of looking at it, but what if the policeman on the beat gives the erring motorist tag for illegal parking. Isn't that in effect sort of tax?
