New Yorker; Veronica has red hair.
She is twenty-three, with, .. a peach
bloom skin and very blue eyes She is

when She! married Dick. her young
lawyer from downtown, when she was
in the chorus of one of the best
known cabaret shows on Broadway,
she was almost too lovely for Gre
Gibility. ~
Not that the marks of age show on
her. Why, she is only twenty three,
when beautiful women ought to be
coming to full flower. She takes care
of herself-her skin, her nails, her
hair. There doesn't. seem to- be as
much money to spend in beauty par
lors as there was when she was max
ing thirty-five dollars week in the
chorus, but she nonetheless refuses to
permit her appearance to go neglect
ed. Still, Veronica looks tired, strain
ed; she hasn't the sparkle she used
to have.
No one could say she isn't happy
with Dick. They love one another
They have little home in one of the
suburbs on Long Island that is just
| far enough to make committing g
nuisance. It is a pretty little white
, cottage with green blinds and a scrap
of lawn. Dick mortgaged everything
except his soul to get it.

The visit of President Roosevelt TO
Roanoke Island, coming at time
when legislation of great Importance
to the South is pending in Congress
and when North Carolina is making
a strong bid for streams of vacation
travel, is certain to be helpful to the
the invitation at a period when af-
fairs in Washington demand close at
tention is evidence of his interest in
the South.
From a historical standpoint, the
Presidents trip to Roanoke Island
has great significance. 1t means that
perhaps for the first time a President
of the United States will visit the
place where was corn the first child
of English parentage in America and
where the first settlement of the Eng
lish race was attempted in the New
World. The result will be that the eyes
of the world will be focused on the
eastern shores of North Carolina.
What this will mean to the econo-
mic development of the State and to
it's place on the travel
map cannot be told adequately. It is
certain to mean that the waterniched
shores of Eastern North Carolina will
become a mecca for thousands in
search of new travel thrills and ad-
venture.
The President will undoubtedly
take advantage of this opportunity to
rededicate the national effort to con-
tinue to improve the economic sta
bility of our people generally. 1t will
be his first public address since MAX
ing his first appointment to the Unit
ed States Supreme Court. 1t will be an
address that comes near the end of
the current session of Congress. And
it will be made in a setting where the
foundation was laid for our present
system of Democracy.
am happy that shall be privilege
ed to accompany the President to
North Carolina. If / may again inject
a personal thought into this column,
1 will say that I am hopeful that the
opportunity will be afforded me to
bring to the Presidents attention the
situation in North Carolina from the
standpoint of current legislation.
1t is particularly important, if the
current wage and hour bill is passed
by Congress, that due regard he given
to the differentials in the South as
compared TO other sections. Federal
aid for the farmer, at time when
bumper cotton crop threatens to
mean falling prices, is imperative
Something must be done pending the
time when new farm legislation is en-
acted. And there is evidence that
when such legislation is drafted it
will attempt to treat the farm pro-
blem on a more permanent basis than
has been the case in the past.
One of the most hopeful signs in
Congress at the moment is the desire

The need for speed has been evident

The need for speed has been evident,
on many occasions.
But with better conditions general
ly, it is important that members of
Congress have a closer contact with
constituents. The viewpoint of the
man at the crossroads store and on
the farm is much needed. The election
of the membership of the House and
a third of the men, ership of the Sen
ate is not so far away. And these cleo
lions next year will be an index to
public approval of the program now
under way and contemplated.
