THE MUCH ABUSED UTILITIES

So much has been said about additional taxes on
public utilities, that it is good time to say some
thing in their favor Today's damage will swallow
up the earnings of the local gas plant for many
years to come. Even to the big Duke Power Com
pany, the Anderson branch will have to run lorg
time anda lot of business to pay for the damage
done today.
But, they carry on, with the sole idea being to
restore service as quickly possible regardless Of
the cost. Men were eating sandwiches provided
by the companies at noon. Others were working
in, the pouring rain.
Come rain come shine, day and night, these men
will continue their work just as fast as they can,
until complete service is restored.

fine, loyal bunch of men and women who really 60

DIR. MCDONALD, CANDIDATE FOR
GOVERNOR .;,:yraa

DIR. Ralph w. Mcdonald, candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Governor,
has been criticised by some as "furr1ner,
which is to say that he is not native North
Carolisian. 1t is usually stated that his
native State is Indiana, but The Hickory
Record, published by "Hoosier" native
son, gives the information that DR., Nc
Donald is a native of Illinois.
We learn from the same source that DR..
Mcdonald has been a citizen of North
Carolina for around ten years and that his
ancestors were North Carolinians who, in
the days of the pioneers, joined that NIGH
ty company of Americans which was NOV
ing westward. They left North Carolina
and settled north of the Ohio River
The Hickory Record sums up its record
of Dr. Mcdonald by asserting that he has
been better patron of the barber shops
than Clyde Hoey; and probably would
have the Doctor receive credit for that to
offset the misfortune of having been born
in Illinois.
The Times-News does not believe that
DIR. McDonald's foreign birth will ma
terially affect his chances for getting the
Democratic nomination for Governor. We
do not believe North Carolinians are SO
backward and prejudiced as to beFcontrol-
led in the selection of Governor by such
nonsensical considerations. The fact that
man is native might make some appeal
to the pride of North Carolinians, but thai
this matter will have any weight as de,
termining factor in the selection of a Gov.
ernor is hardly possible.
DIR. Mcdonald, or any other man sim.
iarly placed with reference to his place Of
birth, has a decisive answer in the state
ment that he is not responsible for the
selection of birthplace butts responsible
for the SELECTION of the State in which he
makes his home. IF DR.. Mcdonald is 6
man of the unusual intelligence and ability
claimed for him by his supporters, his Sc
lection of North Carolina as his home il
highly complimentary to this State.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
TELLING THE PRESIDENT

President Roosevelt has had an earful from his
Committee on Government Competition with Pri
waite Enterprise. Whether the president really lis
tened is another matter. He may have been
thinking that what these gentlemen found belong.
ed to the horse d-buggy days.
This is what the presidents committee has to. say
'"The intrusion of government into competition
with private enterprise, except in situations where
the public welfare can only thus be served, is
wholly destructive. 1t invites and 'cultvates a
growth of bureaucracy. 1t necessarily increases
government expenditures while decreasing tax re-
government income"
One has not seen the opinion of Professor Rex
ford Guy Tugwel OF others of the New Deal pro-
ponents, but this quality of recommendation would
throw thousands upon thousands of federal Off
Gals and employees out of comfortable berhs, if it
should be adopted This committee plainly voices
its opposition to Tennessee Valley Authority, Soil
Erosion Commission, and all other works of the
abecedarian program.
There has been, and is, unwaranted interfer-
ence by government with private enterprise There
has been, and is an interference which initiates
against natural forces working toward recovery
from the slough of commercial depression. An ex
pandang bureaucracy is milestone about the neck
of priyate enterprise. Be not deceived, the presi-
dent of the United States knows this. sssfy ST..
It is good that committee of the presidents
own choosing talks plainly. The country over, per-
sons opposed to the New Deal extravaganza are
coming out into the OPEN "A long while they found
that discretion being the better part of valor they
served no useful end by expressing their, candid
opinions This committee has the, courage to tell
the president in simple language that his New Deal
is wrong. n Responsible Americans know that the
committee is right.-Charleston News and Courier.

WHAT REALLY COUNTS.
By WICKEy WAMBOLDT

swered literally and a ton of gold
dollars be dumped on you, you
would be physically destroyed.
Sometimes | think it would be
a blessing if our civilization were
so geared that no one could make
more than enough money for his
own needs; yet such a restriction
would deprive us of the opportun-
ity to learn a great lesson-the
lesson of using wealth construc-
lively; for wealth in the posses
sion of the right persons becomes
an enormous force for good; it is
fine for anyone when he is given
great force and uses it for the
benefit Of the world; it is an ex-
cellent soul experience for him.
There would be no business de-
pressions, there would be no seri-
Gus governmental difficulties, there
would be no national crises, no
international crises, no wars, no
poverty, no lack of .hospitaliZa-
'ttion, if the human beings placed
on this planet to tend it would
measure their acts in terms of
Honesty and kindness to mankind.
1t is strange, knowing that we
know, having at our command the
knowledge so lavishly available,
being endowed as we are, with eX-
ceptional intelligence and spiritual
insight, that we canont grasp and
make ours the great fundamental
truth that the only thing which
really counts is for us to be faith
fully kind, honest, and decent to
our fellows during the short time
we are passing this way.
