ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN

If the president should call special session of
congress to enact crop control legislation and if
by that time cotton prices and stock prices should
be as low as they at present, and if congress,
which has begun lately to show disposition to
take matters into its own hands, should decide that
something spectacular needed to be done-why,
there would be no telling what turn the session
would take. Offhand we can think of half-dozen
haf-bakcd bills that might be passed. wage and
hour law, further devaluation of the dollar, more
drastic regulation of Wall and Worth Streets
legislation calculated to have the effect of forcing
market prices upward, regardless of values, or of
increasing labor costs and consequently the prices
of goods, which are high enough now, in all con-
science.
And after this artificial stimulation has been APP
piled and the country off on another squirt to-
wards prosperity demand for goods would slacken
again for the simple reason that people couldn't
agord them. And in that case, further artificial
stimulation would have to be applied, for there
has got to be prosperity, else the New Deal would
lack the billions it needs to operate and, besides,
there elections coming off next year, and it is
important from the standpoint of the politicians
that business be booming, at least appear to be
booming in election years.-Charlotte News

SEVERITY IN LAW ENFORCEMENT

When we begin to treat reckless automobile driv-
ers with strictness and severity comparable to the
treatment meted out to the man who shoots a
pheasant out of season, then will we be likely to
get somewhere in the effort to compel respect for
the traffic laws and bring about such condition
of safety on the highways as to do away with at
least a part of the present awful toll of life.
Two men i'm another state who shot one pleas
ant on recent Sunday in violation of the state
conservation law paid fines of SlO6.S5. .
Another man who merely went hunting for
pheasants but did not succeed in killing bird,
paid fine of $56S5.
Suppose we fined every man fifty dollars and
costs who cuts in and out of traffic, who drives
recklessly through a crowded city street, or who
makes pedestrian jump for safety when he drives
around street corner, but does not succeed in
killing anybody.
1t wouldn't be very long before every driver in
the country would be mighty wary of violating
these and other rules of good and safe driving.
And we would be very greatly surprised if the
death toll in motor traffic was not reduced very
quickly to minimum.-Rock Hill Is. c. Herald.

WASHINGTON. -- Secretary OF
w State Cordell Hull was plant
Nc educational seeds and send

4 fortnight before Roosevelt made
his Chicago speech and THIS
government formally declared Ja-
oan an aggrcSSor nation.
II was all carefully planned
Hull made a New York speech
Sept. l9 and speeches in Boston
and New York on Sept. 20 in
which he decricd the isolationiSt
policy implicit in the neutrality
act, and favored a policy Of pos
tive international cooperation,
He said some of the things Roose-
"elt was to say later.
But the State Department, It's
car close to the ground for signs
of public reaction, found no one
had paid any attention. Everyone
mufTed the real story, apparently
assuming that Hull was only
making some perfunctory speeches.
The nation, Hull said. must
"give support for the existence OF
international order If the rule
of law gave way 10 international
anarchy" the security OF tins
country would become seriously
jcopardized, and if we didn't
make contributions toward aSSur-
ing peace we would eventually
have to protect ourselves amidst
an outside world ridden by war
and force"
When Roosevelt spoke even
more forcefully, the country paid
plenty of heed.
The fact is that Hull and RooSe-
Welt had been working closely to-
sether on the "new foreign policy"
for weeks.

last year and has been running at
far higher rate in 1887.
Last years American exports TO
Japan were valued at S204 4,348,OOO
and in the first seven months OF
this year were Sl92 ,050,OOO. These
figures compare with imports
from Jaoan valued at sol ,063 ,0OC
for 1886 and $l27,5ll,000 for this
years first seven months.
Quite a few Americans will be
hurt and hollering if all this is cut
off, On the other hand, some
groups think they would be helped
and an organization of American
manufacturers already is whoop-
ing it up for a permanent boycott
on japanese goodS-even conSld-
ering a campaign to popularlze

price of the hunt each year.
which has q tendency to freeZe frit

Then, by taking the first 2o0o
