To the Editor:
strange indeed it is, that when anv
one who advocates the real improve
ment, the sincere uplift of the ignor-
ant and poor in any country they
nave to battle against the forces of
those who are, rich. All the progress
the human race has made, from the
late stone age until now, has been Sc
cured over the protest of those who
possessed great wealth.
About two thousand wears ago q
boy was born in Bethlehem. The rec
ord of His Life shows He was very
intelligent, kind, and true. He was
thlrty years old before any thing was
ever spoken against Him, except that
as baby, He slept in a horse-trough.
During the thirty-three years of His
life, He was often brought face to
face with pain and sorrow caused bv
the dire poverty of His fellow crea-
lures. He saw that in His countrvl a.
selfish few had all the comforts of
this life. He saw the few in possession
of all the fruits and good things of
this world, which God His father had
provided for all mankind. And He had
the courage to say, in unmistakable
language, that such distribution of
the products of Gods bounty was
wrong. With His own hands He drove
from the church the Melons, the Nor
gans, the Rockefellows and their kind
of His day, where they had gone to
further their nefarious schemes The
irich of His day began through their
bootlicking servants to put out ugly
reports about Him, when they found
He really meant to stop them from
crushing the weak and poor. They
said He was a wine bibber and as
ISOLATED with sinners. Finding that
did not stop Him they had Him kill

the rich are always towards and have
their dirty unscrupulous servants to
do their vile work.
We have, in our country today a
man who is roundly abused by the
money crowd. Their preachers, their
teachers, their editors, and all who
have not the manhood to stand up for
their rights are against Charles E.
Coughlih of Royal Oak, Michigan. So
long as Coughlin was content to be
the pastor of a church and not say
any thing about the suffering of men
and women around him who were suf-
fering the agonies of the damned on
account of poverty, he was nice fell
low. But when he turned the finest
oratorical power ever possessed by an
American, against the doings of the
plutocrats, to save his fellow beings
from lives of want and despair, he

l. Between 1920 and 1880. In 1920
the population of Raleigh was 2.674.
Ten years later 1880, it had dropped
to 100, or a loss of 1854 percent.
z. AS early as 1926 the Society of
Friends (Quakers) were sending Ne

ready to go. Liberia was established
In 1921 by the National Colonization

g. In that year when efforts were
being made to finance the building of
the Western North Carolina Railroad,
now the Southern Railway, from Sal
isbury to Morganton, Catawba coun-
ty subscribed to $4,000 providing the
road would be located through that
county. Caldwell and Alexander coun-
ties subscribed to $1O5,OOO, but stipu-
lated that the road must be located
from Statesville through Taylorsville
and Lenior to Morganton.
4. Archibald YELL born 1897, in An
son (now Union) County. Yell served
under General Jackson in the Battle
of New Orleans. In 1882 President
Jackson appointed him Judge of Ar
kansas Territory. In 1886 when Ar
kansas was admitted as state, Yell
was sent to congress. He served four
years, 1840-44, as governor and was
again sent to congress. He did not
complete this term, but resigned to
enter the Mexican War in which he
was killed.

was rated all that was bad, by. the
rich and their puppets. 4
When Roosevelt was nominated for
the presidency, Coughlin was among
the first to enlist under his banner.
Then the Republican party-the great
champion of organized, predatory
wealth-opened its big and little guns
on him. They said he must stick to
his preaching. It would never do for
a preacher to talk about things poll
tlcal. They knew down deep in their
hard selfish hearts that what Cough
lin was dom, and destined to do for
our country, in a political way was
worth more to this people than all the
preaching that has been done here
since Roger Williams and John Wes-
ley learned their letters. The rich peo-
pie ofHo country care no more for
religion than I do for the Republican
party. While they contribute to it
handsomely they use it to dope the
masses in order that they may be the
more easily exploited. Don't tell me
that one can follow Jesus while hold
ing food, raiment, and medicine from
sick child. There is no criminal on
earth with blacker heart than those
hearts which drives the Shiny ooze
through the selfish bodies of our ultra
rich.
Coughlin did more than any man in
America to put Roosevelt in the
White House. Just as long as there
was any hope that he would drive the
money changers from the control of
our country, Coughlin held up his
hands. But when it was clear to every
one that Roosevelt was just ladling
out soup, to the farmers and workers,
as Old Hoover did, he ceased to sup
port him and began to fight his re-
gime. Then Father Coughlin drew the
invading fire from both the money
power forces. Democrats as well as
Republicans said he should be I'M
frocked or made to stay in his place
as a preacher.
Those who control the Democratic
and Republican parties are jealous of
their power over the people, They
know that these old parties are the
most efficient agency yet devised, by
which the masses can be robbed. They
know that so long as the farmers and
workers continue to blindly support
the old parties, the wealthy class can
keep them working for a pittance,
while, they the rich live in affluence.
In the days of Christ, the plutocrats
decried Him because He sought to
save the people from the damnable
rule of the selfish money changers.
So why should we wonder today when
the same gang seek in every way to
discredit the great Coughlin, whose
sincerity no one honestly doubts? All
who have read his speeches and heard
his matchless oratory concede, he is
the most wise and powerful leader the
workers of our country ever had It
is he, I believe God has chosen to
lead this people out of this awful
Slough of Despond". 1t behoves
every man and woman in our country
to follow his lead. What he stands
for must prevail and that soon, or
our. ship of stateois> steaming it's last
tide. To bear pain, man made pain, is
fast ceasing to be a virtue, to the eco
nomic slaves of America. We will heed
his teaching or the monster that is
destroying Spain today will soon poke
its ugly head into every door in our
country. "o

TODAY'S YESTERDAYS

Aug. IS, 1587-A girl child who was
promptly named Virginia was born to
Eleanor White Dare, daughter of
John White, governor of the English
colony on Roanoke Island, in what is
now North Carolina. She is popular
ly supposed to have been the first
white child born in North America.
However, an illegitimate child was
born to the niece of the first French
viceroy OF Canada, on an island near
Newfoundland, in 1912.
Questionable is Virginia Whites
own legitimacy. There is a legend
that Eleanor White became infatuat-
ed with Sir Walter Raleigh, (whose
name is usually misspelled Raleigh)
then the court favorite of Queen Eli
zaoeth. The jealous queen contrived
to marry Eleanor off to Annanias
Dare, made John White governor of
the colony established $50 years ago
this month, and shipped off the whole
FAMILY to the new settlement 5000
miles away. Scandalmongers of the
time said the daughter Eleanor bore
seven days after her arrival in the
New World was Raleigh's
Nobody knows what haprened to
Virginia Dare; all the Roanoke Is
land colonists disappeared mysteri-
ously when she was three years old.
In Georgia it is believed that the
people of this "lost colony" migrated
there from Virginia, because of trou-
bles with Amerindians; and that Eng
land lost track of them because of
lack of communications.
