Effect
On Music and Some of it's

Music seems to please great
number of people. Some of the
worlds greatest minds find
peace in drifting with the strain
of a melody. A popular song,
played with wild abandon, will
send the majority of youth into
gymnastics and spasms that
nothing csc can accomplish.
Oldsters find the greatest con-
tentment in listening to the
songs they once froliced to.
Efficiency managers, those bril-
liant men who have dedicatht1
their lives to parsimony & speed,
have found that certain workers
efficiency is increasediif music rs
played while they are at their
jobs. ~
Music is relied upon to achieve
effects that words cannot. y.
Preachers rely upon pnournful
hymns to produce the proper
MOOD and to add weight to their
pleas. Manufacturers and merE-
chants sell their wares: with the
aid of elaborate musical, pro-
grams over the radio; The recent
campaign of w. Lee. O'Daniel,
who won the nomination for
governor in Texas, well fllustra-
tes the effect of music on voters.
O'Daniel toured Texas with a
Hillbilly band, and the people
showed their appreciation by
giving him 573,166 votes.
Life, as we know, WotIld be
greatly impaired if it were not
for music. Think.
How would a young man ever
get mated unless there were soft
tunes, lush with words of love.

The McDowell times. [volume] (Keystone, W. Va.) 1904-1941, 1938-10-28

The increasing seriousness of
the use of water power for pro-
ductiOn of electricity, VIII h
is West Virginia's problem and
the problem of every state where
caoli is mined, is shown by re-
cent statistics.
During the past year alone,
32,406,00O tons of coal were dis
placed by New Deal water power,
the output of which increased
6.5 pr cent over 1886 and 24.3
over 1929.
Just stop for a moment and re-
fleet on this rate of displacement
81, 100000 tons of coal in a
single year
| What does this mean to West
Virginia? This state is the first
bituminOus cOal-prOducng state
in the Union, yet it. mines an
nualIy 100,000,0G0 tons of coal
a year.
At the present rate of develop
ment of water powr at public
expense, a market for use of coal
euivalent to West Virginia's en-
tire production will have been
wiped out in a few years.
Coal mines will continue to
lose their markets, one operation
after another will suspend, and
many thousands of coal miners
will be automatically forced on
the relief rolls.
Who issued these dismaying
figures on the inrOads of water
power?
Are they only the imaginings
of some Republican prOpagan-
dist?
Hardly. The figures are taken
from a report made by no less
a creation of tie New Deal than
the National BituminOus Coal
Commission.
Thrty-fOur million tons of coal
representing a deliveI3,d value
IF S136,OOO.OOO. Sixty per cent
of this vast sum, or, S81,000,-
900, would go to coal miners in
wages. Another large share
would go in wages to railroad
workers.
In the face of such figures as
these it would be highly interest
ing, indeed, to hear Congress-
men Ramsey and ImhOff and
their West Virginia and Ohio
New Deal associates crate on
what they and h e New Deal
ar dong for TIE coal miner.
The plight Of the coal industry
and the coal miner shows these
sO-called Representatives in their
true light, as selfish and supine
politician giving lip-servIce to
labor while allowing the New
Deal macers to club the miners
into the dust of unemployment
and want.
If coal displacement continues
at this rate, it will not be long
until there will be nothing for
the miner in Mcdowell county.

The foregoing consists of
facts, not election propaganda.

Lei The Record Speak
by Hal, Block and Will O. Wisp

by Hal, Block and Will O. Wisp
In a carefully planned and
premediated swindle to get the
votes of the voters in the cleo
tions of 1884 and 1886, Demo-
Gratis candidates for office, and
Democratic leaders in MsDowell
county, promised the people that
if they were elected they would
among other things:
1. Get rid of the Courthouse
Gang"
2. Uniform the Deputies and
keep them off the labOring man.
3.SuppOrt the Union and help
organize Gary hollow.
a. Reduce the Cost of Govern
ment.
5. Give the Negro a "better
deal"
6. Provide regular work for
the miner.
These same Democrats and
the present "Court House Gang"
are again blowing off" about
what they have done, and are
making promises about w h t
they will do in the future. Now,
it is high time that the record
be examined to find out how
just how well these Democrats
fulfilled the promises made by
them in 1913 4 and 1886.
The election in November is
primarily for the purpose o f
electing a County and State
ticket-electing persons to hold
Office in Mcdowell County and
the State of West Virginia for
the purpose of completing our
local government set-up. The
best way to determine how the
Democrats will act in the future
is to compare h Ell r record of
the past. in the light Of their
solemn promises to the people.
The record is the best evidence.
Let us discuss that record under
the several promises listed in
capital letters.
1. GET RID OF The COURT
HOUSE GANG"
Well, by riding Roosevelt's
coattail, they got rid of the
"Court House Gang" In doing
so honest, capable and efficient
public servants were remov-
ed from office. But the Demo-
Gratis replaced them with a like
number of officers and employees
Now, instead of having a "Court
House Gang" we have a "Litz
Hassen Building Gang" "Vicl
Building Gang" a Merchant:
and Miners Bank Building
Gang" a "Post Office Building
Gang" and "Street Walking
Gang" They have added sc
many gangs" of office holders
that sufficient buildings cannot
be found to house them in
WEIGH, and many hundreds are
on the streets of WEIGH, and
scattere throughout the county
They are Swivel chair artists
being paid by the government,
when the coal miners and
common laboring men of McDo-
well county could not find en-
ployment, and their families
were suffering.
2 UNIFORM THE DEBUT
les AND KEEP THEM OFF
THE LABORING MAN.
They kept part of this pledge
They put uniforms on h {
deputies at a cost to the tax
payers of $575.2 81 in 1887, anc
$590.50 in 1888. They armed
them with big pistols, but they
have not kept them off the
laboring man and petty offend
ers. Abonding company has al

6. PROVIDE r E G. u l. A, r
WORK FOR THE MINER.

The miner knows how little
work he has had in the past two
years, but many miners do not
know the reason. Here is some
thing, for which the Democratic
Administration is responsible,
that the miner should carefully
consider. The following article,
taken from a recent issue of the
Welch Daily News, speaks for
itself: S

What Did The Democrats Promise?

the Democrats have always
given the Negroes, and will con-
tinue to give them. The Demo-
cratic party wants nothing from
the Negro tother than his vote.
Negroes who have strayed
from the Republican party, the
party of Abraham Lincoln, had
better come back to the fold
while they can. If conditions
ontinue as they are now, it
might be too late one of these
days. -.
