A STITCH IN TIME

Robert Latham, editor of the Asheville Citizen,
told the Rotary club at Sylvia that the mountain

which will yield general benefits
Residents in the Piedmont of South Carolina are
almost as much interested in the development OF
the mountain counties of its neighbor state as are
the people of those counties. So close to the noun
ains is our Piedmont section that state lines mean
nothing and the problems of the mountains also
are the problems of the Piedmont.
The great parkway, now under construction, will

tain counties each year. The Great Smoky Noun
tain Park will be magnet to attract tens OIL thou-
sands more. The mountain counties must be ready
as Mr.. Latham said TO put our minds dehmtey on
a determination of just where we in this mountain
region fit into the picture in country that has
changed greatly in the past decade that IS chang

cultivation The erosion problem is one which pe'-
ple of the mountains must solve just as it is
great problem of the Piedmont
Recently the beautiful artificial Lake Lure was
filled with muddy water because the soil OF the
mountains is being fed into Rocky Broad river al
ter every heavy rain. North Carolina must hold
that soil if the mountains are to come into their
own As one motors over the beautiful mountain
highways one observes great gullies and dltches

plant food Their vandalism must be stopped
There is no part of the United States that grows
finer native grasses, that produces more nutritious
vegetables, that is capable of growing better oeei
cattle. hogs and sheep than the Carolina noun
tans. They offer unequalled opportunities to the
small farmer but those opportunities Will VANISH
with the disappearing soil.
The mountains have health, beauty and natural
wealth to offer the tourist and the home-seeker but
all are dependent upon the conservation Oh the
soil. That, to our mind, is of greatest importance

Under the workings of Ger
many's peculiar foreign exchange
system the necessity Of increas-
ing food imports would mean a
slump in the import of industrial
raw materials vital to armament
manufacture.
1t was believed, therefore, that
Hitler and Goering were faced
with the alternative Of slowing up
the arms program or driving the
industrialists to the limit Of their
production capacities, and chose
the latter.
German army officials, who
want the output Of munitions and
equipment kept at a steady pace,
have made no secret of the fact
that they regard Hitler's. -four
year economic plan" a. a military
measure.
Lieut.. Col. George Thomas,
general staff officer, recently
published an article in the OBJ
Scure mining newspaper IN
which he stated that the four
year plan was the result of les
sons learned in the World war in
the field Of military economics.

staff, Major Otto Beutler, wrote

now is raced with tasks similar

LET'S NOT FORGET THOSE WHO
= MADE YEAR MERRY
CBv BRUCE CATTON

From all indications, this is going to be
one of the busiest holiday seasons in years.
Everybody by now has been reminded that
it is, more or less of public duty to shop
early and, undoubtedly, has been eagerly
scanning lists of Christmas gift sugges-
tons.
In this regard, maybe it would not be
amiss to suggest that we do not overlook
public and private individuals who have
contributed so generously to the gaiety OF
thefnation, during this eventful year.
Il would be sad, indeed, if Christmas
setting sun would find no good deed done,
or gifts provided, for these celebrities.
Such a lack of public appreciation could
not'be due to difficulty in choosing proper
gifts, since no task could be simpler.
For Adolf Hitler, for instance, there
must have been considerable wear and
tear involved in ripping up the Versailles
Treaty. So what could be more suitable
for him than a new, be-ribbOned treaty,
already perforated? col. .,-s
For James A. Farley, peer of postmas-
tiers and postmaster at prophecy, nothing
seems more apt than turban, robes, and
a crystal ball, though it is doubted If he
would need the last-name item.
There is no need to remember the Duke
of York or Mrs. Simpson. Each has al
ready received splendid gift, one getting
a kingdom, the other an ex-king.
For both CLOS John Lewis and A. F. of
LIS William Green, nothing seems more
appropriate than pair of heavy-duty box
ing gloves.
A can of tale would seem the serviceable
thing to present to the Literary Digest, the
face of which, at last accounts, was very
red.
To the Liberty League and Halle Selas-
sic might be sent the very latest in wailing
walls.
Among the choicest of Christmas gifts
are certain books. Of the best sellers,
"G91e With the Wind" seems suitable for
politicians Of the late campaign, and Live
Alone and Like. It." for the American en-
voys forbidden to wed foreigners.
These are just few suggestions that
come to my mind, and there are others
undoubtedly far more appropriate. But it
would seem base, indeed, if we were to
let the seaso nof cheer and good will pass
away without remembering those who
during the past year, helped keep oul
minds off life's stark realities.

PROGRESS OR REAcTIoNIsM

The so-called Industrial Progress Council, IN rec
ommending new industrial legislation closely re-
sembling the nullifed NRA, asserts that private
enterprise cannot safely be permitted to admins
ter business and industry entirely free from gov
eminent intervention"
Which may sound progressive to the members OF
this council, from which representatives of the
large basic industries of STEEL automobiles textiles
and rubber were noticeably absent and in which
the National Association of Manufacturers and the
Chamber of Commerce of the United States did not
participate.
To very many in industry, however, 1t sound
retrogressive and reactionary.
1t is an entirely mistaken notion that the APP
proach to RECOMMENDATION, or government control of
industry and business, means progress. 1t is reac-
| tionism, pure and simple.
| The hand of government has never been any
thing else than clamp on business enterprise in
itiative and progress There is nothing in Russias
industrial progress under the driving force of a
Communistic government to indicate anything to
| the contrary.

ment of the industrial Progress Council is allow
ed to control it will mean the beginning of the end
of any practical liberty or effective freedom in any
of our activties.-Rock Hill Is. c. Herald

He told how he himself pro-

it off with a small gift for each

also provides a bowl Of cheese
and crackers free for customers.
This costs Mr.. Ebersole only four
