BAILEY OF NORTH CAROLINA.

(By Ralph Smith, Washington cor
respondent, writing in the Atlanta
JournaD
Senator Bailey of North Carolina
emerged from the forensic fray with
his reputation unscathed and the
scalps of several colleagues, notably
that of Wagner of New York. Hold
ing the floor for the better part of
two sessions, the North CarOfln1an
was matchless in his extended debate
with Wagner, displaying familiar
itv with the relief administration cal
culated to befuddle Harry Hopkins
himself. Wagner was no match for
Bailey, and suffered in the verbal
clashes from apparent unprepared-
ness
Not since Huey Longs last stand in
the Senate-his spectacular filibuster
against adjournment-has Senator
commanded attention comparable to
that enjoyed by Bailey.
The galleries weren't as crowded as
in the days ofathe Kingfish, but many
more senator's were present than US
ually were attracted by Huey and
they followed Baileys scratching, yet
constructive criticism, of the relief
administration more closely and
thoughtfully than they followed the
Louisianian.
It seemed quite befitting, and a de-
served compliment, that during his
speech, every member of the North
Carolina delegation in the House
drifted into the chamber to hear their
senior Senator.
Senator Bailey is rated among the
so-called arch-foes of the President
Court proposal, and while his name
doesn't appear among the leading
"strategists," is is a foregone conclu-
sion that he will take an important
part in fighting the Court issue. He
is a great lawyer, a magnificent de-
batter and if the intensity of his feel
ings don't develop a bitterness akin
to that displayed in the Judiciary
Committee report, the chances are
that his contributions to the contro-
versy will take high rank in sena-
torial debates of history.

or absorb the commission. If Erwin,
warren and other conservative school
leaders will try to cooperate with the
new school commission half as hard
as they tried to submarine the old
one, they will find that it is not such
bad outfit, after ALL and that they
can be sure of getting square deal
from it, those in a position to know
the facts maintain.
SUPERINTENDENT Erwin and Mr..
Warren have the greatest opportunity
to render a real service to the public
schools of the State they have ever
had, which is to bring about an end
to the silly petty jealousy and rivalry
that has existed between the conser-
vative school forces and the State
School Commission" an. observer re-
marked today. "They ought to realize
by this time that the taxpayers of the
State are going to continue to insist
upon having a school commission com
posed of business men to allot the
school funds, whether they like it or
not.
: "There never has been any reason
for all the fusing and Tuning about
the SCQOOl CO1I1IIl1SSlOu OH LIlc PdIL VI
the school forces, anyway, and all of
this can be brought to quick and de-
finite I'd Superintendent Erwin and
Mr.. Warren and the members of their
group will forget their feud of the
past few years and try to cooperate
with the school commission instead of
working against it. The schools and
the welfare of the school children are
too important to permit the continu-
ance of petty differences such AS
have existed in the past between the
school commission and the anti-school
commission group"
There is no longer any douSt here
but that Lloyd Griffin will be reflect
ed executive secretary of the commits
sion again, although Governor Hoey
made no definite recommendation as
to this position. It is also believed
that Griffin will do everything posi-
BILE to bring about better feeling and
better cooperation among the differ
ent school factions in the state.

SUMMER DEW

Awaking early a few steps I take.
To this dear old window of mine.
The bright summer dew looks silvery
blue.
In the beautiful golden sunshine.
With spider webs swinging here and
there
Are laden with dew drops bright and
fair.
The stately old maple to me it brings
The songs of a hooking bird as she
sings.
The dear little daisy so pure and white
Are killed with summers dews sun
light.
The sunflower peeps over summary
hills.
Laughing with joy saying wake up
and live.
Flowers are swinging from rock gard
en- walls
The whip-o-will leaving for dawn has
call.
Lifting my eyes to grass covered
planes
Awaking memories of summer again.

OTHERS VIEWS
ON CURING TOBACCO

TO the Editor:
Tobacco should be harvested when
fullest of oil in order for it to cure
easily and be rich and superior in
quality. Oil does not evaporate in the
process of curing like the sap does
and remains to give wealth to the
weed. Oil and sap (water) do not
mix, but come and go, at intervals,
during the life of the plant. When
the sap rises it runs the oil out Coil
being lighter) through the pores Of
the leaf to the surface where it forms
gum, we'll known to all tobacco
growers. Tobacco harvested in this
condition will cure badly and be light
and inferior in quality.
My father grew tobacco for about 70
years. He found that there are bet
ter times than others for harvesting
tobacco in order to secure best re-
suits. I shall be pleased to answer
any correspondence from tobacco
growers, provided postage is sent for

AMERICA AT WAR DAY-BY-DAY


20 Years Ago Today-American
newspaper readers were told Maj.
Gen. John J. Pershing had observed
independence Day by going to the
tiny Picpus cemetery in Paris to place
wreath on the grave. of Lafayette
with the simple phrase:

This was an error: Pershing didn't
say it.
Col. Charles E. Stanton, West Vir-
ginian assigned to Pershing's staff as
paymaster, authored the phrase and
he bespoke it as he laid the wreath
on the tomb.
When the ceremony was arranged
Pershing asked Stanton to write a
few appropriate sentences for the &C.

to the aid of our fathers to help them

Being agile climbers, swift runners and
able to take high jumps, sheep are
not easy to catch or corner. They
are likely to become frightened snd
go into a huddle. A good sheep dog
knows how to break up the company
or guide the sheep to safety. In
the wild state it is not unusual to
have goat as their leader.
The ewes are smaller than the rams.
and their horns ars straighter and
smaller. The lambs are easily tanned,
and even the widest ones will become
domesticated in short time, follow
ing those that feed and pet them.
They can find more ways Of keep
ing you busy than would be supposed
and they are playful in manner that
is often upsetting, since one of their
chief joys is to approach you from
the rear and give you sharp. un-
expected push with their lowered
heads.
The tail Of the karakul is stable,
and in some cases it acts as store
house for fat which can be used in
times of need as fuel in the manner

become great nuisance, as a carryall
for burs. weed seeds and ticks.
The all-black lambs in the karakul
