No imme- diate move was made to oust the 5000 strikers who have paralyzed production in Chrysler's big Detroit plants. Shortly before the deadline was reached the United Automobile Workers, on strike against Chrys- Ter, Hudson Motor Car Company, and Rec, rejected an invitation from Governor Frank Murphy to participate in the deliberations of the "committee of 20" an organ- ization formed by the executive to conside rmeans of bringing perma- nent industrial peace to strike torn Michigan.
 Chrysler Accused
 The tclcgrams of rejection, signed by Homer Martin, U. A. w. presi- dent and addressed to Murphy, charged that the Chrysler Corpor- ation has "flouted the National Labor Relations Act by refusing to agreethat the JAW. has the right to be the bargaining agency of its employees" Detroit still waS . strike plagued city as Murphy pre- pared to convene his committee of 20," which was supposed to include representatives of capital, labor, civic organizations and religious groups. There were more than 90 separate strikes n pptrcit Alefae.

 Dublin, March 17 (UP) - All friends of Ireland abroad will be glad to learn on this St. Patrick's day that the Irish people are still thinking in terms of peace.
 They desire peace at home so they can devote themselves wholeheart- edly to the social and economic problems with which Ireland like every other country is confronted.
 They desire and will work for peace abroad so that international co-op- eration may play its due part in the solution.
 I am sure that American people feel as we do in this matter and that their much greater strength and in- fiuence will l@be directed to the same ends. fs J-"t.''. x '.''' TT

INFLAMMATION N0T
DEPRESSION CAUSE
They Laid 1t on That in
1905 Just AS They
Are Doing Today
by CHARLES P. STEWART
Central Press Column;st

washington, March 6.-Back in the
4o'os there was published monthly in
Tue united States a now-lone-since-
"enuhct magazine called the Galaxy.
we were suffering then from a bad
oppression the period following the
crash OF NfS), as we have been of late.
me Galaxy therefore devoted consid-
cradle space to discussion of economic
problems. It was highly intellectual
III tone. had first class experts on it's
staff and evidently weighed the cues
tlons Of its day i'll an intelligent fash
ion--for that era.
FINALLY, editorially summing I'D Il
quote rom an ancient bound copy of
the magazine), it drew this conclusion:
Our difficulty, of course, is obvious.
we are the victims of our own
mechanization of industry.
Mechanlzation has made such pro-
gress and produces so fast that we no
longer have employment enough to
go around"
MACHINES? IN 1873?
This, remember, was at a time
when, expressing ourselves in terms
OF the 1905, we would say that nearly
everything was done by hand.
pewee steam engine, known as
the Corliss, was exhibited, as a per-
feet monster, at the Philadelphia CEN
tennial exposition, in 1876. We had the
telegraph but not the telephone. Pri-
mitive electric lights were a curiosity.
The scythe and the fail by no means
had been supplanted on our farms.
Yet that Galaxy editorial pointed
out that we had been mechanical in
to depression.
The editorial from which I have
quoted could be lifted from the dead
and-gone Galaxy of TIE 1905 printed
in any newspaper of tomorrow morn
ing, and no one would suspect that
it had not been written the night be-
fore relative to conditions of the
present.
ARE WE, TOO, WRONG?
Clearly the Galaxy of the 1905 was
cock-eyed.
Some commentator of 1897 or 1000
may refer to 1878 economists as be-
ing as cuckoo as the Galaxy's were in
1905.
Something was and is wrong, to
cause depressions. Mechanization GER
tainly wasn't and isn't it, however
at least not to speak OF.

WINE CONCERNS TO
SEEK TAX CHANGES
Sale of Wines i'm State Is Issue and
Tax Is Included in Revenue
Act Now Law
Daily Disparch Bureau,
I'm ALnn Ctr NA-nlfnn HnAnl


Raleigh, March GA bill has been
prepared for introduction, having the
backing of the wine manufacturers
and hotel interests, to change the tax
on wine as now contained in the reve-
nue. bill, it was learned here today.
1t is expected to be introduced any
day now. The bill is understood to
have been written in the Sir Walter
hotel here by representatives of The
Garrett Company, of Brooklyn, N. Y,
manufacturers of wines-the same
company which is understood to have
written and lobbied through the 1885
wine law which threw the State vir-
tually wide open to the sale of mat
ural wines" without any tax or any
equations.
although the revenue act impos-
es a tax on wine, there is a great
deal of doubt as to whether it per-
nits the sale of wines in North Caro-
iina," said w. F. Hope, vice-president
IF the Garrett Company, who admits
ne is backing the proposed new bill.
The bill which will be introduced
only sets up machinery act for the
sale of wines and authorizes such sale.
It should serve to stimulate a great
new industry for North Carolina-the
growing of wine grapes for the max
ipg of wines"
Others who have seen the bill, how
ever, maintain that its principal pur-
pose is to reduce the taxes as i'm
posed by the revenue bill. The Gar
rett Company fought the section of

AGRICULTURE BODY
ERADICATING FUNGUS
Currant and GoOseberry Bushes De
strOyed wholesale To Ward
off the Disease
Daily Dispatch Bureau,


Raleigh, March 6-Destruction to
more than a million wild and cult
waited current and gooseberry bushes
in North Carolina by the State De-
partment of Agriculture in co-opera-
ton with the U. S. Department of
Agriculture has saved the State from
the dread fungus disease known as
white pine blister rust G. H. Brannon
department entomologist, announced
Today.
BLISTER rust of white pine is fun
gus disease which requires two diff
ferent types of host plants to COM
plete its life cycle" the entomologist
explained. "These hosts are white
pines, which it kills, and currant and
gooseberry plants on the leaves of
which the disease grows during the
summer months. BY destroying all
cultivated and wild currant and goose
berry bushes within 900 feet of the
white pine trees, the trees can be pro-
tected from the disease, since it can
not spread directly from one pine to
another"
The States white pine resources are
valued at more than $2,O0O00O for
lumber and ornamental white pines
are valued at many millions more.
white pine is an important factor
in replacing the blight killed chest
nut, thus adding to it's value for re-
forestation and soil conservation
work." Mrs. Brannon said.
White pine blister rust control work
was begun in North Carolina in 1884
Up to the present, the disease has not
been found in this state, but here are
heavily infected areas in Virginia,
Maryland and adjoining states.

committee, and Paul Garrett, presi-
dent of the company, wrote letters to
the members of the General Assem-
bly, asking them to oppose this sec
ton of the bill.
It is understood that the new bill
is similar to the 1885 wine bill, in
that it's purpose is represented as a
bill "to promote temperance by en-
couraging the use of light wines as
opposed to the use of distilled liquor"
and to encourage agriculture in the
State by stimulating the growing of
grapes and fruits, also that it would
prohibit he sale of any wines not man
ufactured in North Carolina, or at
least give special preference to these

Second Term

!. There is in President Roose-
velt's second inaugural address
much to hearten the colored citi-
zen. Considered from any one Of
several angles, there is still no
thing to cause any feeling Of de-
preston. Even looking through
the address, without getting tho
ught-connectives, one finds such
expressions as power to stop evil;
power to- do good "old truths
have been relearned, untruths
have been unlearned";; and "men
and women Of good wilT' which
tell, unmistakably, that the man
who will guide the destiny Of the
Nation for the next four years is
right at heart from the colored
mans point Of view.
But to be more specific, we
note such sentences as 'I see mill
ions of families trying to live on
incomes so meager that the pail Of
family disaster hangs over them
day by day. I see millions whose
daily lives in city and on farm
continue under conditions labeled
indecent by a so-called polite Soc
iety half a century ago. I see
millions denied education, recrea-
tion and the opportunity to better
their lot and the lot Of their child
