for governor said today on his way
back to his home in Shelby follow
ing week of intensive campaign
ing. $50 it is now amusing, to say
the least, to watch Mr.. Grissom's
efforts to convince the public that
he has become a liberal and that
he and Governor Landon are the
real liberals in this election and
that President Roosevelt and I are
the reactionaries.
{ For Mr.. G-:ssom has been one of
the apostles of epublican reaction
airy principles and candidates since
the days of Governor Russell, the
last Republican governor of North
Carolina, and of Marion Butler, the
states last Republican senator, He
was a supporter of both Russell and
Butler and has supported every Re-
publican candidate ever since. He
supported William Howard Taft,
the reactionary Republican candi-
date, against Theodore Roosevelt, and
has stuck steadily with the Old
Guard down through the years. He
was a supporter of President War
Fen G. Harding and his New Steal"
which made his administration in
famous. Grissom was also an apostle
of Coolidge and of Hoover, the great
engineer" who ditched and drained
the country so effectively and dis
'astrously during his administration
while promising that prosperity was
always Just around the corner
yet at the present time Mr.. Girls
som is maintaining that President
Roosevelt and are the reactionaries
and that he and Mr.. Landon are the
real Democrats and liberals in this
present campaign. rya
"The people of the State, however,
are not being much impressed by
Mr.. Grissom's chamelion-like change
and his efforts to. cover his reacc-
tionary Republicanism with an. I'M
,itation Iiberar sheep skin. They
know that underneath the assumed
exterior of liberalism that both Mr..
.Grissom and Governor Landon are
still rock-ribbed Republicans at
heart, still believe in the divine

right of capitalism and big busi-
ness to do as they please at the
expense of the workers and people
of moderate income, that they still
have their ears attuned to Wall
Street and the big interests.
ION the other hand, the DEMO-
Gratis of North Carolina-and by
Democrats 1 also mean the social
ed liberals since they are Demo-
Gratis first and have been all the
tlme-have confidence in the Dem
ocratic party and it's leaders, in
President Roosevelt and his admin
istration and are not going to trade
the benefits which come Ito them
under Roosevelt for the empty prom
ises being made by Mr.. Grissom and
Governor Landon. They are not go
ing to exchange something definite
and tangible for nothing"
1t Is pointed out in Democratic
headquarters here that Mr.. Grissom
is a direct beneficiary of the most
corrupt and profligate administra-
ton the nation has ever habitat
of President Harding and the "Ohio
Gang"-since he was appointed Col
lector of internal Revenue in North
Carolina during the Harding admin
istration and held this post success
sively under both President Coolidge
and President Hoover.
Accordingly, those who know the
past political history of Mr.. Grissom
are not going to be misled by his
attempts to pose as a liberal and
his efforts to capitalize on what the
Republicans believed was a split in
Democratic ranks, officials in Dem
ocratic headquarters here maintain.

as frocks at a garden party.
II can see these things but I

This beauty was wasted on her.
Tenements seen from an elevated
train would have stirred her as
much.

in this manner:

Alix Carey any more. There

"When are you going, Kim?
ANY time. I hoped you'd change

Alix wanted to ask him if he'd
still want to take her if he knew
that she had no heart to love him
with, if he'd be satisfied just to
have her there to be his playmate.
He said. II know you're not in

BROWN SNOW

XA7HEN President Roosevelt signed the farm act
W he said:
The history of every nation is eventually
written in the way in which it cares for its soil"
AS if to emphasize the Presidents warning, an
other dust storm struck the Panhandle areas of
Oklahoma and Texas. Visibility diminished to
zero" said press dispatch
Writing from Oklahoma CITY, Thomas L. Stokes
political correspondent recently described the oil
derricks which rise beside that ctys skyscrapers:
i saw their spdery forms against background
OF dust, pinksh gray cloud lowering the CITY,
swept up in one of series of dust storms which pre-
sage return of last years calamity
In the derricks and the dust clouds you have
the symbols Of the despoing of this country out
here-the ravaging of Okahoma's two chief re-
sources, her oil and her farm lands by those who
lust for quick profits and think not of the morrow"
And few days later came dispatches from New
England describing the brown snow" which fell
leaving specks of Texas sand on the window panes
shutters and white clapboards of New England
homes.
Yet there are some who say the farm problem is
local.
For the soil problems of the Western plains to
be sure, the new farm program does not provide an
adequate solution 1t might have sufhced if it had
been put in effect before the sod was powed up to
grow 50 wartime wheat. But erosion has worked
so fast and ruthessly that in a great part of this
area no plan of crop rotation, by which farmer
can gain livelihood is feasible According to Dr.
Paul Sears, author of Deserts on the March," the
only possible way to check those drifting sands is
to restore grass and leave the land to decades
of natures patient healing
And this involves also the moving of stranded
families Fortunately the Resettement Admins
tration already has launched in the dust bowl
$10,000y000 program of land purchase, land resod-
ding and moving of families to more fertile areas.
DR.. Tugwell's organization has here magnificent
opportunity to do something really worth while.
TT is for the millions Of fertile as yet only
slightly wasted by erosion that the new soil con-
servation and domestic allotment farm act is intend
ed. The government will spend half billion dol
lars year to induce farmers to plant less land in
crops which take the soils fertility and expose it to
the wind and the rains, and plant more land in le-
gumes and grasses which build fertility ard bind the
soil against erosion.
If every cent of it were borrowed money, the f.
nanciai burden passed to future generations
would be more than compensated for by saving
heritage of soil from which those of the future can
get the food and bers they viii need for existence

WHAT'S 1T ALL ABOUT?

XXTHEN United States Lines laid up the Levia;han
W contrary to the terms of contract it had
with the government it became liable for payment
of $1O0OOOO forfeit.
Secretary of Commerce Roper, however, waived
collection of the $1,0O0000 on condition that the
company build a liner. This deal obligated the
government to put up at least $75OOOOO from the
construction loan fund.- Notwithstanding the vigorous
condemnation of that fund by President Roosevelt
in message to Congress.
Roper specified that invitations to bid on con-
sructon of the ship should be sent out not later
than Sept Is last. When that day arrived no invi-
tations had been issued Instead Roper issued a
statement. He said the Commerce Department had
instructed the company to revise its plans to provide
greater safety for passengers. How he could order
revision of plans he had not seen he did not explain
Accordingly, he extended to Nov. 16 the limit for
requesting bids and stated that construction must
start not later than Dec. Is. To date not only has
no construction been started but the construction
price hasn't even been decided
So. once more Roper has set deadne. This
time it is April l. Again the reason given is revision
of plans. And again really satisfactory explana
ton for the delay is volunteered
Is the Secretary genuinely interested in rescuing
our merchant marine from virtual extinction is he
merely acting a steamship agent?

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

10y 1tuS. VdIteE ferguson
ITO remain young is the chief desire of the Amer
- lean woman, says a professional dispenser of
advice to the ladies' Next, it seems she would like
her romance to be unending and after that she
wants financial security.
All of which is large order
Wanting all this is nothing unusual of course
Mortas always have dallied with the idea of Utopias
and fairy Kingdoms and miracles worked with magic
Old cemeteries planted with alchemists who
spent their lives seeking formula for making gold.
The woman who hopes to stay young very long
after 40 is evidently too much preoccupied with
SELF If she expects the thrills of first love to last
lifetime, she exists in dream world And when
she wants financial security without turning her
hand to earn it, she is parasite on society
These stories about us which appear so often
nowadays in the daily papers must be taken with
grain of salt. After all the American woman is
merely figure of speech. If she exists at all it's
dangerous to generalize about her For the minority
gives leaven to the loaf

turks the hidden dream-the dream of quick easy

when the cold-creamed vacuity of an Edna Wallace
Hopper face rake in so many shekels, why
tend the spinning wheels? So reasons the modern
girl But it's the other kind of woman upon whom
society always depends-thoSe who nurture the
children, nurse the sick and help the men, There
is no formula for staying young there is formula
for feeling vounr-be useful

TODAY'S SCIENCE
by DAVID DIETZ-

A MOTION picture camera ca
4 n pable of taking from 200 to
1000 pictures per second and of
photographing objects moving at
the rate of six miles minute. has
been perfected by Gustavus j. Esse-
len, Inc, of Boston.
This represents an increase of
from 10 to 100 times over the
speed of the ordinary movie. The
talkies which you see at your IA
vorite theater are photographed at
the rate of "a exposures per second.
The new device is expected ia
prove of exceptional value in scien-
tiflc studies, according to a report
in Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry. official publication OF
the American Chemical Society.
1t is believed that it now will be
possible to photograph sound waves
in motion, air currents in circulat-
ing systems, and so on.
The great Importance of the de-
vice lies not only in its ability to
photograph scenes at high speed but
in the fact that when the film is
run of at ordinary speed, the effect
is to slow down the motion to about
.OO8 of its original speed.
Thus, for example, photographs
can be made of metals and other
materials in tests for stress, strain,
shear, and breaking effects. When
these pictures are run of at ordi-
nary speed they slow down the
events to such an extent as to per-
