MILO w. STRONG

Milo Strong came to Hendersonville seek.
ing nothing material from this community
He came here to retire. Through his EARL,
err efforts ne had attained that economic
position where it was no longer necessary
for him to work Through these efforts ne
had earned the right to spend his remain
mig years in the quiet of his home.
But by profession and nature Milo Strong
was builder He could not sit idly oy
while there remained work to be done. He
could live in no community without becorrl-
ing apart of that community. When the
call to service came to him he could no.
allow it to go UNDECIDED. Wa. '.s
HID saw that this community, like all
Others, greatly needed the services OF It's
citizens. To this community he gave, IN
unsefish service, the last years of his life.
Without question, the rendering of this
service shortened his life by several years.
Milo Strong sought no honors IN his
adopted community. Had We OF this COM
munily but known it, he could have en-
loved greater fame in larger field OF
service. To us he gave materially two
termt of service as president of the Cham
Der Of Commerce, term as president OF
the Rotary club, and term as president
of the Hendersonville Golf and Country
Club. As president of the Chamber OF
Commerce, he gave his full time to the Of
flee. During his second term, he was
warned by his physician that he must con-
serve his strength; but he was never one
to count the personal costs when his efforts
were needed. co.,.
Milo Strong was not a golfer. The COM
munity needed no golf course for his per-
sonal use, but he saw that first class
course would be an asset to this commun-
ity. TO this project he gave months of eff
fort, and to him, more than any other in
dividual, belongs the credit for the sue
cessful completion of the project
So. much in a material way he contribut-
ed to Hendersonville. So much will be eff
faced by time. But, the contribution OF
himself that he gave; the spirit in which
it was given, this will remain when all else
has passed away. -. sn.

Yet, Hopkins insists no one in
actual need be cut off WPA. The
state administrators are receiving
that order. too. There arc TO be
no arbitrary cuts and quotas will
be subject to review.
The curtailnent program was
predicated upon an absorption by
private industry Of roughly 300,-
900 WPA workers; on continued
recovery: on good agricultural
year: upon contribution Of more
money to projects by localities af-
tected: and on the possibility the
rolls could be kept from expand
ing during January, February and
March. Except in the last in
stance, it is still too early to tell
how many of these possibilities
will come true. In the meantime,
there have been disastrous floods
which may keep the WPA figures
up. It is concededly impossible
to cut WPA rolls at a time when
local relief lists are growing.

A REPORT just in from an area
of IL southern states lists a
March quota Of 100000 WPA,
405,C00 actually on the
rolls and 10000 Certified cases,
awaiting assignment or reassign.n
ment." The last figure, REPRESENT
ing unemployed employable per-
SONS eligible for WPA, probably
is too high. But secret WPA esti-
mates place the number of the
country's employables trying to
get on WPA rolls at between
100000 and 100000.
That Is one reason why con-
tinued industrial Improvement
doesn't mean proportionate cuts in
WPA rolls. When man leaves
the rolls to get a private job, there
are nearly always others, certified
as, eligible, seeking to take his
place -

POLITICIANS SWAP DEMOCRAT FOR
REPUBLICAN

The Democratic leadership of the State
responsible for the Second victory din
ner," to be pulled off in Raleigh tonight, is
making the party ridiculous.
Because the New Deal bellhops and tag
alongs got sore at Senator Tydings, who
delivered the principal address at the first
dinner, the thing must be done over, with
Secretary Ickes busting" into oratory.
The real objection to Senator Tydings,
speech was that an able and independent
leader who has the courage of his conNic-
tons made a sincere and sensible address
to a crowd that was interested only in full
some flattery of Roosevelt and in bally-
hooing his regime. 49,. ~, go.
Some of the critics of Tydings have
branded the Maryland Senator as Repub-;
lican; or as giving aid and comfort to the
Republicans; and then the gang proceeds
to invite to the second dinner" as chief
spellbinder man who was lifelong Re
publican until the hooked up with the New
Deal to get an office. 49,, = -. 81. 49,

had nothing further 10 say.
When we get to asking What
is it," and "Why?" we invariably
come smack up against unfathom-
able mysteries, no matter where
our questions lead us or whom we
interrogate.
Every person is familiar with
certain manifestations of incom-
prehensible force and intelligence.
The scientists are acquainted with
more; but the. wisest of men ac-
tually know very, very little.
In the foregoing instance we
observe scientist who knew
enough to know that he knew lit
tie. Many q college student-wise
in his own conceit-would unhes-
itatingly have attempted TO ex-
plain spirit, matter, or anything
else.
This is a world of things that
must be taken on faith. Seeming

compel faith. The most contented

who have the most faith.

ON LASHING OUT

Sometimes it may be advisable
20 lash out at a person, but the
hing should be done only after
calm reflection decides that such
IN operation is necessary. The
step should never be taken be-
cause of anger. Anger is a de-
structive force; a move made I'M
der it's influence is likely to be
destructive. Wherever we accom-
p!ish anything good while we are
actuated by anger, VIC can give
our lucky stars the credit - not
our intelligence. ..
Temper is a fine force when
under control. A person who has
lost control of his temper has lost
control of his power.
Quiet determinatin is the thing
and usually it can be improved
by the addition of courtesy.
Persons who govern themselves
can the better govern others, for
they do not spit out remarks

WASHINGTON Pr dent
NRoosevelt, Harry Hopkins and
the Budget Bureau arc about to
grapple with the relief problem
again. prior to recommending to
Congress an appropriation of
somewhere between one and two
billion dollars for the next fiscal
year. ....
There is no assurance yet that
the president, can work out per-
manent program for unemploy-
ment relief. Nevertheless, as
Roosevelt. once laughingly said.
in reply to the question when he
would balance the budget. Hope
springs eternal"
Meanwhile, the most encourag.
ing news concerning reduction of
WPA rolls and the expense of
maintaining them is this:
For the first time in four years,
the number Of persons on WPA
or federal relief rolls has re-
manned practically the same
throughout january and Febru-
airy. In 1888, 1884 and 1885 the
curve rose sharply during those
two months. There were 2,lS2 yo0D.
on WPA lists in the latter Dart Of
February as compared with q
$4,000 in December. In Febr,,.
airy, 1886. the number was 3, 0ss :
200. '~y @so,. -
THE present official plan is to

heads Of families and single nere
sons by the end of the fiscal vear

provided for when it gave WPA q
deficiency appropriation of $3.50

BLACK LEGION NOW PLAYING
 AT COLISEUM
Secret Organization Expos ed in Dramatic
 Picture

Lifted directly from the banner lines and news columns of the daily papers of a few months ago is the thrilling melodrama Black Legion which opened yesterday at the Col iSeum Theatre.
 The Warner Bros. production was begun a few days after the press revealed that such secret organi- zation was operating in Michigan, and was concluded, according to studio officials, on the very day a Detroit Judge sentenced the hood ed orders officials to life impris- onment.
 The story concerns young au- tomobile mechanic. played by Hum phrey Bogart, who joins the Black Lagion-purportedly national or der-in a fit of bitterness lover los ing the foremanship of his shop to a foreign-born fellow-worker. The Legion, of course, is portrayed as a racket, eEriching it's promoters.
 The young mechanic takes part in house. e-burnings, floggings, tor tures-all wildly shown and finally kills his best pal, Dick Foran. He has to stand trial for murder.

Geua Hides Dancing Legs
 To Nuke Her Film Debut
By ROBBIN CooNs

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Nov. 1. = For Tamara Geva, for a while, a leg will be something to stand on.
 She stands on two of the pret- tiest the Broadway stage or Holly wood ever saw. But Hollywood meaning the cameras-won't use them. Tamara, Russian-born dan cer-actress, is hiding them as she makes her film debut.
 Besides being something to stand on, leg to Tamara is also some thing one prefers not to discuss
 q don't mind" she says, but anything one says is so likely to be misunderstood At present I wish to forget dancing for a while-to be seen as an actress-but if I said so, that, too, might be miscon- Strued."
 Did Ballet Burlesque
 Born on St. Patrick'S Day, the daughter of Tartar father and 8 Swedish mother, Tamara was train ed in the Russian Imperial ballet school and came to America 1T "Chauve Souris." Ziegfeld signed her for "Whoopee," and her other musicals on the stage included "Three's a Crowd Flying Colors' and "On Your Toes' In the last named she added acting to danc- ing, and presented burlesque oi ballet-in a way revenge for the weary hours of gruelling practice ballet had demanded of her
 Tamara appeared in an acting role in an unsuccessful play, "The Divine Bridge, and this opened the dramatic field to her Recently she did Idiots Delight in summer stock In pictures she wants to continue as a dramatic actress-and forget the dancing, and the legs.
 In appearance a sort of exotic Margaret Sullavan, Tamara shiec from film offers until she founo one she considered suitable. Sht plays temperamental opera star but doesn't sing-in Manhattan Merry Go-Round."
 Hates Onions and Liquor
 She herself IS not too tempera- mental She loses her temper sel- dom, but when she does-you'rt supposed to duck She never diets except to eschew hard liquor. Sht likes a glass of sherry, has a few superstitions, loves to have her hea6 scratched. She makes elaborate plans, usually abandons them for z spur -of-t the moment idea
 She hates to pack clothes, write letters, cook, give parties, sew, ol eat onions. Off the screen she wear: little or no makeup. She has few close friends, but makes acquain. tances easily She is a good story. teller. good listener, and a gooe o1nversationalist. Her accent is slight.
