HOEY SEEKS TO
END CONTEST
Initiates Action to Con.
clude Eighth District
Controversy

RALEIGH, Oct. Ex-Governor
Clyde r. Hoey, as head of. the
state Democratic party, yesterday
began action toward a settlement
of the bitterly contested primary
contest between c. B. Deane and
w. o. Burgin,- both claiming the
Democratic congressional nomina-
ton in the eighth district. =.
The governor initiated action
when it appeared judicial settle
ment could, not be effected in
time to name either man as the
party candidate in the November
8 election. Unless a settlement is
effected the congressional post
would go to the Republican can
didate by default.
Governor Hoey called attorneys
for both contestants into confer
ence yesterday and announced
that some progress had been
made. The conferences were being
continued today.
The controversy has passed
through hearings and rehearings
before county election boards in
four counties, before the state
board, and the superior and su-
preme court of the state.
John R. Jones, solicitor of the
18th judicial district and the only
Republican holdin~ a major cleo
tive post in the state, is the Re-
publican candidate. '..

WALKERS ADDRESS E.
IS INSPIRATINAL
Mr.. Walkers address was hu-
morous and inspirational. He first
appraised the assets of Henderson
county whose value We are prone
to overlook or to forget. naming
among others a fine system Of
highways, attractive homes and
public buildings, adequate hospi-
tai facilities, excellent schools
ranking second in North Caro-
lima in elementary work." fine
churches with able ministers, mod
ern assembly grounds and sum-
mer camps for boys and girls,
prosperous industries, productive
farms, lucrative tourist trade and,
nearby, one of the country's
greatest attractions - the Great
Smoky Mountains National park.
This park, he said, while not yet
officially open, has attracted three
and one-half million visitors in
six wears, while las of the 400
miles of the national parkway
have been completed and 245
miles will be finished within the
next year. The park and park
way will bring unestimated. mil
lions into this immediate section
within the next ten years, he as
serted.
"But with all your assets you
should be dissatisfied Mr.. Wal
ker said. "You must continue to
advertise and you must exhibit an
even greater spirit of co-opera-
ton in all civic enterprises. In
this connection, joining the Cham
Der of Commerce is one of the
best financial investments anyone
can make" -. .......
Mr.. Walker said that in every
community there are are six class
es of citizens: az those who as
sumo their share of civic respon-
sibilities and do their job well, (2)
automobile citizens-those who
are always away somewhere in
their automobiles when there is a
civic task to be accomplished; 81
radio citizens-those who stay at
home by their radios when their
help is needed: (4) lily citizens
