Quotes Mayor Dore
Permit me to quote the
words of one John F. Dore,
Mayor of Seattle, Washing
ton, uttered in a recent ad-
dress delivered on the CAM
pus of the University of
Washington on the 10th of
October of the present year,
and printed in a Los An
geles newspaper. / quote:
81 praise the industrial
works of the world for one
of the greaest contributions
ever made to the welfare
of the workers, even though
their methods were the me-
thods of violence" He pre-
dicted that the Democratic
party within four years will
shed it's name and become
the L l B E R A L LABOR
PARTY, or some such. A
not too yelled intimation
that Communism will sup
plant their present doctrine.
He was also fulsome in his
praise of Harry Bridges Ca
radically for his manner of
handling tn e Longshore-
mems and Stevedores' prob
lens and his methods in
harassing the shipping in
dustry, worth m any mil
lions. He states the belief
that unless Harry Bridges
gets what he wants, t h e
President will take the ships
from their owners. This, of
course, is not Communism?
Such incendiary propagan-
da is an all too common oc-
! currence in America.
1t is a we'll known fact
that the Communistic creed
excludes God; however, it is
my belief that those of that
pers sion in America
should get down on their
knees and fervently thank
Him that they are making
their speeches during the ad-
ministration of Franklin d.

BRANN IS NOT A NEW DEALER

In the flood of comment on the results
of the Maine election one interesting fact
that has been overlooked, at least by the
newspapers of this section of the country,
is the fact that while Governor Brann, de-
feated candidate for the United States Sem
ate in that contest, is a Democrat, he is
not a New Dealer.
In his campaign for election to the SEN
ate Governor Brann repudiated the New
Deal declaring Il cannot go along with
the New Deal" The Governor explained
his position by saying that he is opposed to
the principles and policies of the so-called
New Deal. At the same time he asserted
that if the federal government continued
its lavish distribution of money he would
take the position that the State of Maine
ought to have its share.
oft seems that the near-successful race
Governor Brann made for election to the
Senate was not based on an alliance with
the New Deal or the national admlnistra-
ton. Whatever influence the Deal may
have had on the result was exercised IN
exactly the opposite direction, according to
any rule of logic which may be applied.
Governor Brann's fine record as public
official and his personal popularity, plus
his opposition to the policies of the nation
al administration, almost resulted in his
election to the United States Senate. 1t is
hard to understand how any unprecedented
observer or commentator can reach any
other conclusion.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
GLORY BE, GENERAL!

The proposal that every 19-year-old youth be
given six months military training in the CCC camps
bv Major General Van Horn Moseey, commander
of the Fourth Corps Area (our own area with
headquarters in Atlanta) has been met with at
tacks from peace advocates as tending to convert
this into nation of mllltarlsts.
The generals proposal is right down our alley.
We do not think that this training should be COM
puIsory but we do think that the United States is
wasting an awful lot of time on opportunity in not
putting the CCC camps under military discipline
and teaching the young men who attend them the
rudments of military life at least
What foreign nation would have so many young
men concentrated and not avail themselves of the
opportunity to give them some military training?
Not a of them.
We do not believe in compulsory military serv-
ice but certainly do believe that the CCC camps
operated to give the men in them six to twelve
months of military training would work wonders
for America
We have enormous manpOwer in this country.
That all wars so far as we are concerned ended
is bunk. Nobody even pretends to believe that. We
will sooner or later be forced into another war; and
why not have our manpower partially trained at
least. No matter how brave a may be, it profits
him mighty little on the modern battlefield if ne is
not properly trained for service.
Let's put these young men-especially those who
want the advantages physically, mentally and So
cially-of military training, and who leave school
facing the almost helpless task of getting job
to work in our camps, and at the same time give
them enough training so that if war does come,
they will go in as trained soldiers and not just can
non fodder.
Following out General MOseley's plan would GER
tainly make any nation in the world hesitate long
time before it picked a scrap with Uncle SAM

ITALY'S ARMED STRENGTH

Premier Mussolini's saber-rattlng speech at Az
ellino in which he declared that Italy could mobl-
ize 8, 000, 900 men sin the course of a few hours
must not be taken too literally 1t addressed to
the Italian people on the occasion of review OF
some $4,000 troops. 1t was the kind of bOmoaSt
that characterizes the Fascist dictator when ne
haranges the military forces of his country. Ii
Duee's figures cannot bear analysis The latest es-
innate of the population of Italy is 4287O,OOO At
least half of this number is made up of women,
which leaves q, 435 900 adult males and children.
If there are three children to every adult male-a
moderate estimate-the total manpower of the
country is little more than 100000 soldiers,
farmers, workers. To mobilize 100000 MussoEni
would have to call upon the total male population
of the country as well the various Fascist chill
dren's organization. Mussolini used the term mo-
Billie to indicate that he could raise an army OF
600 0OO an utter absurdity. He declared that the
60, 900 troops in review represented only "a mod
est and almost insignificant total in comparison to
the total of men and means which Italy can
surely count" The referred to constitute
the vast civilian population upon which every army
depends The total armed strength of Italy is esti
mated at 1,250000, force out of all proportion
to the size of the country. 1t is greater than that
of Russia with four times the population. 1t is only
slightly less than that of Germany under its pres
ent universal compulsory military system. With
million and quarter men as actual and potential
soldiers Italy is the most thoroughly miitarized ma
ton in the world and perhaps the most completely
regimented Such military strength in itself is
grossly immoderate. Certainly there is no need to
try to evaggerate t.-Courier-Journal.

THE BOYLSTON HIGHWAY

In their resolutions presented to Gov. Ehrlng-
haus and Chairman Waynck of the State Highway
Commission, urging the Improvement of the Boyls-
ton highway (route 280 between Brevard and
Asheville), the members of the Mills River Com
munity club have strong case.
Mills River is large and populous farm section
The road, now covered with crushed stone and
maintained by the state carries much through tra-

people have waited long and patiently for the hard
surfaeing of roadway certainly not less important

REAN HARVESTERS COME FROM
OTHER SECTIONS

A large crop of beans is now beng mar
vested in Henderson county. 1t IS reported
TO The Times-News by County Agent G. u
White as a big crop of first quality. Inc
harvesting season is at the peak and the
picking is being pushed as rapidly as pos
sible by the growers.
Hundreds of bean pickers are at work IN
the fields of Henderson county and a TACT
which ought to be noted to keep the record
straight is that much of the work IS Demg
done by harvesters from outside the coun-
tv. Truck loads of negroes have been COM
ing to the county from Ashevllle and otner
outside points to aid in the bean harvest.
Loads of negroes have come from as far
away as Spartanburg. 1t is reported to this
newspaper that several hundred bean pick
ers from outside the county are now at
work in the bean fields.
This causes one to wonder if the bean
crop of Henderson county could be har-
vested and shipped by residents OF the
county. Is the fact that a large number OF
people are still working for Uncle Sam one
of the things responsible for the scarcity OF
labor for Jobs such as the harvesting OF the
bean crop? Is the fact that government
relief is still being supplied the cause OF
this condition?
At any rate, The Times-News has abso-
lutely reliable information that it would be
impossible to save and market the bean
cropof Henderson county this season with
out outside labor. There has been no local
response to the call for workers in the bean
fields" said our informant.
Either there is no idle labor in Hender-
son county, or if there is, it is composed
of that class that always manages to get
along without descending to the level of
working for living.

Facts Tell the Story

Wrapped in the complete belief

Just because a child has enter

THERE is DANGER

Some Years ago when the Med
iterranean fruit fly made its APP
nearance among orange groves IN
Florida, the United States govern
ment spared no expense nor Ell
fort to stamp it out. The Medlter-
ranean fruit fly is scourage so
terrible and devastating to agrl-
culture that to get rid of 1T at
anv expense is cheap. Once it got
going it would take the country.
So the United States department
of agriculture kept the fruit fly
confined to Florida, and Waged
relentless war on the past until 1t
was completely eXterminated.
There are ideas, also, coming
to this land from abroad which
are fully as deadly to the life Of
this nation as the fruit fly
ideas which If they get going Will
do to our government what the
fruit fly would do to our agricu!-
ture.
We should not go to sleep over
those matters. If we do, we may
wake up to find ourselves in a
horrible plight.
If the United States depart
ment of agriculture had not rec
ognized the Mediterranean fruit
fly for what it was when it first
made its appearance, and destroy
ed it then and there, it would
have been just too bad for US.
And so will it be just too bad for
us if we do not recognize certain
evil foreign propaganda for what
it is and relentlessly put an end
to it.

Tigers Face Two Hurdles
Two basic lines Of baseball
thought restrain me from putting
the Detroit Tigers at the very top
of the American League heap this
day. One has to do with the fact
that they are likely to take the
uennant as a matter Of course and
thereby g sour. So few clubs, my
friends, have won three pennants
in q row. You can almost count
'em on two hands. In all baseball
history, it has been done but seven
times in the National League and
four times in the American League.

to do with three ageing men on
whom Mickey Cochrane seems to
be relying too much this year
simmons, Goslin and Crowder.
In retrospect it seems I have
gone about previewing the four
teams calculated to have a chance,
BY picking the flaws, or the weak
neSSes in them. Which is true
enough, and I find fewer Of them
in cleveland than in New York,
Boston or Detroit.
I will not belittle your baseball
intelligence by making Washing

bottom four teams it will be a tie
between Bucky Harris and Rogers

teams which are alsoranS before
they start.
