The cost of Investigations au-
thOrized or conducted by the last
two Congresses will probably ap
proach the one million dollar
mark. Public opinion as to the
value of these forays differ, but
there is, apparently, healthy re-
spect for Senate probes. The
House investigation aimed at pro-
hibition enforcement some years
ago was noteworthy and its in
quiry into rebates, discounts and
refunds, alleged to encourage
monopolistic trade organizations,
is encouraging.

The probability is that the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence seaway
project will come to life between
now and the election this fall.
Neither Canada nor the United
States has ratified the 1882 treaty
to permit work on the project and
there is considerable opposition in
this country. This. according to
the President. springs from fears
of economic harm to special locali-
ties or to special interest" There
is no difference about the proposal
among the Governments concern
ed, including the Province o. On
tario and the State of New York.

On the Senate side one recalls
the oil scandald probes, which re-
turned the Elk Hills oil reserve
and the Teapot Dome reserve to
the Government and also the stock
market probe few years ago,
which added millions OF dollars to
the Treasury in the payment of
evaded income taxes. OF the
twenty special investigating COM
mittees launched by the Senate
since last year, there does not
seem to be returns. although the
lobbying and munitions probes
have uncovered facts which I'M
doubtedly influence public opin-
ion.

Conclave Will Not Be
Limited to Young
Democrats--5O,0 900
Expected

Washington-With approval and
Endorsement of officials of the
Young Democrats of America and
the Democratic national committee
for a monster seven-State Demo-
cratic rally in Charlotte about June
10, Haywood Robbins and w. o.
Barrett stated here.
Originally planning to confine
the convention only to members of
the Young Democratic clubs, they
found such a cordial and enthu-
siastic response to their plan that
they decided, after further confer
ences, to extend the scope of the
gathering, as had been suggested be-
fore they left home, and call it
"The Green Pastures Democratic
convention" with the name of Mr..
Roosevelt, at the masthead and at
which participants will serve notice
that Dixie plans to roll up for Mr..
Roosevelt the biggest majority ever
given a Democratic candidate for
the presidency.
The plans were consummated
when Emil Hurja, executive assist
ant to Postmaster General Farley,
chairman of the Democratic con-
vention, advised Mr.. Robbins it
would be unnecessary for them to
confer with Mr.. Farley or the
White House about the plans, be-
cause he had been advised to tell
Carolina watchman., 1936-03-20
the visitors to Ego ahead"

1T appears We have accomplished
all we came here to do" said Mr.
Robbins as he called upon Senate,
Robert R. Reynolds to tell him
goodbye. 1--WE have decided to call
it the "Green Pastures Democratic
convention with delegates invited
from every town, city and county
in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida.
Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia and
possibly Alabama.
1--WE have the Endorsement of our
State president of the Young Demo
Gratis clubs, also that of the officials
of Young Democrats in other
States. The convention, which
should be attended by at least 5o,-
600 militant Roosevelt Democrats,
men and women, is under the spon-
sorship of the Democratic national
committee, and the Young Demo
Gratis and should go over with a
bang. The exact date will fall be-
tween the State primary in North
Carolina and the Democratic ma
tional convention in Philadelphia
June %, but we have been asked
by Mr.. Hurja to make no announce
ment of speakers until later
Mr.. Robbins said Mr.. Barrett
would handle publicity for the
event.
II am heartily in favor of the
convention" said Senator Reynolds
cit is not so much where it will be
held as the good it will do. While
/ would like to have seen the con-
vention go to my home town of
Asheville, nearly everybody going
to Charlotte will have to pass
through Asheville, and they will
get to see our city, anyhow. This
should be one of a series of great
regional meetings in different parts
of the country"
Mr.. Robbins said Charlotte was
formally approved at a meeting of
prominent Democrats, and "now
we are all set to go, with minor
details to be worked out later"
In regard to the Baltimore meet
ing about April 13, the Democratic
committee announced that Balti-
more will be the center of a ma
tion-wide observance of the birth
day of Thomas Jefferson on that
date. President Roosevelt will at
tend and deliver the main address.
Under the auspices of the Young
Democratic clubs of America, ap-
proximately 10000 admirers of the
father of Democracy will gather in
the armory of the 5th Maryland in
fantry at Hoffman and Bolton
Streets to listen to the Presidents
address.

SKUNKS INCREASE;
BLAME DEPRESSION

Richmond, Va.-The bu-
reau of game and inland fish
cries blames the depression for
market pickup in the skunk
population hereabouts. Skunk
fur it was explained, was valu-
able before the stock market
crash, and men trapped them
for commercial purposes.
When their fur declined
sharply in value there was a
resultant decrease in trapping.

table Black-Draught is the first

storing the downward movement Of

toms of constipation promptly can
be relieved. Mr.. J. P. Mahaffey.
OF Clinton, S. c., writes: "I have
found that Black-Draught is very
effective in the cleansing OF the sys-
tenn. When affected by the dull
headache, the drowsiness and lassi-
tude caused by constipation, I take

more than any other woman in the
country is credited with bringing
about the freedom and rights which
modern women enjoy, may be the
first to receive medal under pend
ing legislation in Congress for COM
memorative medals.

When Mrs. Gait was recently in
Washington, as leading figure at
the Eleventh Annual Conference on
the Cause and Cure of War, Presi-
dent Roosevelt remembered that it
was also the fiftieth anniversary of
her entrance into suffrage work. He
received her in his office, presented
her with letter praising her ca
reer, and approved the idea of a
medal being stuck off for her
golden jubilee.

I paid a dime for package OF

And the clerk tossed them out with
a flip.
We've got 'em assorted for every
mans needs
He said with a smile on his lip.
Pansies and poppies and asters and
peas
Ten cents package, and pick as
you please.
Now seeds are just dimes to the
man in the store
And the dimes are the things that
he needs.
And I've been to buy them in sea-
sons before,
But have thought of them merely
as seeds.
But it flashed through my mind as
I took them this time,
"You have purchased a miracle
here for dime.
You have a dimes worth of power
which no man can create
You have dimes worth of life
in your hand.
You have dimes worth of mys-
terry destiny, fate,
Which the wisest cannot under
stand.
In this bright little package, now
isn't it odd?
You have a dimes worth of some
thing known only to God"
