NEW DEAL PROMISES

great deal has been heard during the period of rapid
y increasing deficits to the necessity Of curtament of
national extravaganza. There be question to
the soundness of the suggestions Our national debt is
nearly double what it when the New Deal took
the reins Of government Since the debt nineteen bill
lions at that time the increase than sizeabe
We are told that further increases in the debt may bring
initiation hasten other form of national collapse
The specter of steadily increasing taxes placed before
use with higher living costs and shrinking business.
All of this is significant and worth studying. But the
lamentable fact remains that all of debt and tax
troubles not national Many of them the prob
lens Of the stae county and local administrations After
ALL the most Of the tax which falls real estate and the
more tangible forms Of personal property is assessed by
the local government.
So far the national income tax concerned it is paid
directly by the weodo although much of this is passed
to the consuming public It is true also that hundreds
of millions paid by the humber citizens in the form of
hidden taxes assessed by the federal government Yet let
not forget that after all the visible taxes the home
and citizen the burdens of the local
forms Of government
What formerly the Democratic Party, but is now
known the New Deal raised great uproar in 1882 by
declaring national expenditures high and the fed

embryonic New Dealers 1882 actually promised decreas

Police Chief Wants Highway Safety
Taught In All School Classrooms

High Point.-"A course in
Highway Safety should be taught
in all schools!" This was the state
ment made recently by W. G.
Friddle, chief of the local police
department. II think this study
should be required, and before any
student could graduate from high
school, he should have at least one
unit in this very important study"
Chief Friddle said he believed
that this idea, if carried out, would
help diminish the number of I'M
necessary and tragic accidents
which occur each day as a result
of reckless driving.
Mr.. Friddle thinks a course of
this type would stimulate the STU
dents interest and make him more
safety-conscious. As he became &C
quainted with safety rules and
abided by them, it is probable that
he would try to make his friends
enforce these laws also.
To promote further safe driving
each boy and girl should be provid-
ed with a "Guide to Safety pub
lished by the North Carolina Div
ision of Highway Safety which
gives all information concerning
driving.
Chief Friddle emphasized the
Importance of making drivers rea-
lize that it might be their own
child or friend in front of a car,

TIL MOTOR STRIKE

The labor situation is giving Ad-
ministration and Congressional lead
ers a great deal of concern. While
every practical politician wants to
go on record on every possible oc-
casion as being a friend of labor,
one Of them wants to be forced
into taking sides as between the
two major factions into which or
ganized labor is now split.
The effort of John Lewis's CT.
O. to force General Motors to re-
sognize his union as the sole bar
gaining agency with its employees
is in conflict with the American
Federation of Labor, which has a
strong and very active lobby always
at work on Capitol Hill.
The understanding here is that
Mr.. Lewis did not intend to start
the General Motors strike until
Spring, but the local leaders got
out Of hand and went ahead with
their sit-down strikes before all the
plans of strategy had been per-
fected.
1t is also the understanding here
that it was never the intention of
the CLIO. to cripple the whole au-
tomobile industry. The strike was
aimed at General Motors alone,

ROOSEVELT begins Second Term
Oakdale Church Remodeled
Farm Families
Need Better
Light Bulbs

Many North Carolina farm fam
lies r paying for more electricity
than they use, according to D. E.
Jones, rural identification special
ist at State College.
This is due to the small use of
current in some homes where there
is a minimum charge per month,
he explained.
For example, one large power
company serving rural areas a
minimum charge based on the cost
of so kilowatt hours per month.
At least half of its rural customers
use less than SO k. W. b., Jones
stated.
These homes could have better
lights and more electrical appli-
ances without paying any more for
current, he pointed out.
Instead of using Is or 4o-watt
light bulbs, as some farm families
do, they could use 80, IS, or 100
watt lamps for the same cost. Bulbs
are inexpensive, nd the better bulbs
would only be making use of cur
rent hat must be paid for any
way.
Jones also emphasized the fact
that low-power bulbs do not give
adequate light for reading, sewing:
or other similar purposes, and as
a result they cause eye-strain.
Even when better bulbs and ex-
ira equipment increase the electric
bill a small amount each month
the better light and increased en-
of electrical convenience
is more than worth the added cost,
he continued.
Jones also said that although S.
1858 miles of new power lines have
been proposed to serve 3o,434 ru-
raj customers, the actual number
who receive the service may be
somewhat less, as a certain per-
|centage of the families fail to wire
their homes after power has been
made available in their communi-
ties.

And you don't know what to do,
Do nothin'.
If your appetite's not right,
And your Wristbands gettin' tight,
Stop stuffin'.
If your plans are all awry,
And you feel you want to cry,
Go fishin'.
If you can't see FAR ahead,
And wish that you were dead,
Stop wishin'.
If you know you talk too much,
And your neighbours feelin' touch

Stop talkin'.
If your nerves are all askew,
There is one good thing to do,
Go walkin'.
If you're runnin' into debt,
And can't pay for what you get,
Stop buyin'.
If you'd like to reach the top,
And are just about to stop,
Keep tryin'.

To Hx:af Him
Main Objective to Aid
Underprivileged, the
President saysi in Inau-
gural Address.
SWORN IN BY
CHIEF STI

Washington, Jan. 2o-''I do SOL
EMMY swear that | will faithfully
execute the office of President of
the United States, and will, to the
best of my ability, preserve, pro-
tect, and defend the Constitution
|of the United States"
Such was the oath taken by Pres
ident Roosevelt as he was inaugu-
rated today, beginning his second
term as President, the oath being
administered by Chief Justice
Hughes.
In his inaugural address, which
was delivered before several hun
bred thousand persons, the Presi-
dent dedicated his second admins
tration to a further removal of hu-
man injustices and a continued aid
to the underprivileged.
President Roosevelt said in part:
'In these last four years." Mr..
Roosevelt said, 1--WE have made the
exercise of all power more demo-
cratic; for we have begun to bring
private autocratic powers in their
proper subordination to the publics
government.
1.-THE legend that they were in
vincible-above and beyond the
the processes Of democracy--has
been shattered. They have been
challenged and beaten.
MI. Roosevelt said the greatest
change in recent eventful years
was 1.-THE change in the moral eli
mate of America"
with this change in our moral
climate and our re-discovered abil-
|ity to improve our economic order,
he observed, "we have set our feet
upon the road of enduring prog
Iress.
Shall we pause now and turn
back upon the road that lies aheade
"Shall we call this the Promis-
ed Land?
"Or shall we continue on our
way?"
Saying the mental and moral ho-
rizons have been extended, he
warned it would be more difficult
to hold to progress than it was to
get started.
'DuEled conscience, irresponsi-
bility and ruthless self-interest al
ready reappear," he saod. Such
symptoms of prosperity may be-
come portents of disaster!
prosperity already tests the per-
sistence Of our progressive purpose.

TO A. FRIEND

By Florence M. Charlesworth
We need each other
Not to sit beside the fire and talk
of love-
But to assist each other now and
then
With things we're dreaming of!
We need each other-
Not to build a house. and raise a
family
But to aid each other on the road
To opportunity!
Our meeting wasn't just a thing of
chance,
1t was ordained that we should
meet
So we could both advance,
In lots of things that needed re-
cognition-
And now we know how we'll
We've bettered our condition.
We need each other
Not to take advantage for a selfish
end
But just because of finer things,
We need each others help, my
friend!
