AGRICULTURAL
ADVANCE TOLD
Rotarians Hear County
Agent White, L. H. Me-
Kay at Dinner

Agricultural progress be n g
made in Henderson county, and
details of the federal govern
ment's soil conservation program,
were given to the Hendersonvllle
Rotary club at it's meeting We'd
nesday by G. D. White, county
farm agent, and L. H. Mckay,
Henderson county farmer, and a
member of the state committee on
the farm program.
Mr.. White spoke first of the
corn contest being staged for Hen
derson and Pennsylvania county
farmers and declared that it had
great value to the agriculture of
the two counties. The state is also
holding a master farmer contest,
he said. and Henderson county
has a good chance of having the
master farmer award in this
county.
A lime project is being worked
out, Mr.. White said, whereby
lime deposit in this county will be
worked and farmers will be able
to effect a considerable saving on
lime. Ten thousand tons have been
contracted for over a period OF
three years, he said.
Poultry is one of the county's
largest industries and is rapidly
growing, Mr.. White said, and
dairying is also a fast growing in
dustry. He pointed out that there
are now over 200 head Of regis
tered GUERNSEY cattle in this
county. =.
Soil fertility has been described
as the principle asset of this ma
ton, Mr.. Mckay said, and if this
be true then it belongs to the
whole pepole and to the genera
tons that are to come after. 1t
has been stated, he said, that 5O
million acres have already been
ruined by crop production.
The new plan, he pointed out,
does not offer farmers pay for not
doing something, but they must
show that their soil is being con-
served to benefit. The plan pro-
vides for diversion payment and
for a payment for soil improve
ment.
P. w. Bennett, assistant county
agent, was a special guest, and
visiting Rotarians were George
Patterson, Asheville, and Dwight
Nay, Miami. .'.'-

Applying Saturdays

The local office of the N. c.
State Employment service, which
was opened last August, 1885, in
the city hall primarily for the
emergency program of placing
those persons from the relief rolls
on WPA and PWA projects, was
closed on Wednesday, June 10,
and the files were moved into the
district office at Ashevillc. P.
Lane CASTOR, Asheville district
manager, stated that such tempo
rary outpost offices are being
closed throughout the state when
the program they have been set
up for has been practically COM
pleted.
w. NJ. Sherard has been in
charge of the local office during
the past 10 months. During this

district office. Mr.. CASTOR states
that it is necessary for all appli-

at least once every 90 days. 9th
erwise, it is taken for granted
that the applicant has secured en-

Mr.. CASTOR also states that all
persons used on the Blue Ridge

PWA project in this section, will
be secured by the contractor from
the N. C. State Employment SER

JAPAN WARNED
BY BRITON ON
ILLICIT TRADE
Connivance Is Alleged in
Smuggling Of Drugs Into
North China
REPAYING OF BRITISH
LOAN SAID INVOLVED

LONDON, June II. (UP).-
Youthful British Foreign Secre-
tary Anthony Eden yesterday i'm
plicitly warned Japan to cease al
legged connivance in wholesale
smuggling Of drugs into Northern
China.
Speaking in the house of COM
mons, Eden said the British gov
eminent has made further strong
representations to Japan COM
planning about the North China
smuggling situation.
As result, Eden said, a Japa-
nese foreign ministry official has
been sent to investigate the SNUG
Cling.
However, no specific assurance
has. been received that Chinese
customs officials on sea and land
will in the future not be prevent
ed from carrying out their duties
without hindrance and without
limitation of arms whic hthey
carry for that purpose" he said.
1t is believed that the British
governments chief economic ad-
wiser, Sir Frederick Leith Ross, is
now in Tokyo discussing the snug
Cling problem with japanese Of
ficials.
This illicit trade has undermin-
ed Chinese finances, deprlvlng
Marking of normal customs reve-
nues and endangering repayment
of British loans.
Meanwhile, British authorities
anticipate renewed apanese mill
tary intervention in China this
summer.
Despite the recent joint protests
from Washington and London con-
corning smuggling, Japan conf
IDENTIFY assumes that in a crisis
neither the United States nor
Great Britain would take forcible
measures to protect China's indie
pendence, authorities said.
''Therefore, Japan probably
will resume her military action in
China very shortly" one author
ity said.

ROOSEVELT PROMISES FULL
PROGRAM WILL BE REALIZED
WITHIN THE CONSTITUTION
Challenges Opponents to
Fight Campaign Upon
This Basis
CENTENNIAL STADIUM, Lit

CENTENNIAL STADIUM, Lit
tie Rock, Ark, June II. (UP).-
President Roosevelt last night
challenged the opposition to fight
it out on the constitutional ques-
ton as he dashed at critics and
pledged a "march forward" to
New Deal detectives in a speech
to the nation.
Pledging attainment of the goal
by means within the structure Of
the constitution, the chief execu-
tive told a cheering Arkansas CEN
tennial audience that the great
charter sis intended to meet and
fit the amazing physical, economic
and social requirements that con-
front us in this generation"
To political observers who were
looking for a mild address dealing
with the development of Arkansas
as a state, the presidents remarks
came as a surprise. They were in
terpreted as a sweeping reply to
Republican charges by some and
to all as the formal declaration
that the Democratic campaign was
on with the issue out in the open.
Immediately after the conclu-
sion of his address Mr.. Roosevelt
and his official party moved thru
wildly cheering crowds and left
the stadium.
The president went to the home
of Senator Robinson, whom he
had just called his very good
friend and associate. Following
dinner at the oRbnson home, Mr..
Roosevelt left Little Rock at 9:2O
D. m. aboard special train for
Houston, Tex, where he is Sched-
uled to arrive tomorrow morning
for a three-day visit in connection
with that states centennial.
President Roosevelt arrived
here early last night from NAL
vern, Ark, for the first major ad-
dress on his tour of the south
west.
Accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt
and Senators Joe 7. Robinson,
Democrat of Arkansas, majority
leader, he drove soon after arrl-
val to the Centennial stadium for
the speech-making in connection
with the states Tooth birthday
observance.

COP. into Z
BIG 0VATIONS
Could Have Stampeded
Convention Into Nomi-
mating Him

Copyright, 1886, United Press)
PUBLIC HALL, Cleveland, June
II. (UP).-Republicans gave the
first major demonstration of their
national convention last night
when former President Hoover
told the delegates the time has
come to "stop the retreat"
He came here last night to take
charge of the November offensive
of the G. o. P. against the New
Deal, and had he been so inclined
he might have stampeded the con,
vention away from the standard
of Gov. ALT M. Landon, who is
certain to be nominated this week.
Mr.. Hoover, smiling and alert,
received two ovations in which the
state standards were swept out
into the aisles for the first parades
of the 1886 convention. One was
at the start of his speech and the
other at the end. Between them
he delivered a speech, sparkling
with metaphor and bristling with
"challenge to the Democrats"
But he did not linger to gather
whatever harvest there may have
been for him-some say he could
have won the nomination on the
strength of last nights speech
hut hurried out while the applause
still was unquenchable and board
ed a train for New York.
The word he left with his fell
low Republicans was:
"Stop the retreat"
Younger looking than four
wears ago, smiling and waving his
arms at the delegates, Mr.. Hoover
attacked the New Deal along
broad and general lines. He con.
demned waste, extravaganza, and
the drift toward Relationship.
"This is your CALL" he shouted
from the circle of blue light in
which he stood on the platform.
"Stop the retreat. In the chaos of
doubt and confusion and fear,
YOURS is the task to command"
No reference was made in his
speech to any desire on his own
part for the nomination. Nor did
he give aid or comfort to any
other candidate. He stood above
the wars of the convention and
called on the troops to unite be-
hind principles. ....
Mr.. Hoover arrived here at a
time when the "Borah-for-Presi-
dent" movement had collapsed and
when the old campaigner from
Idaho was sitting in his hotel
suite, whiting at pla tf o m
planks. Borah won concessions
