Debatine Contest
For Ashe County
Schools Suggested
Importance OF This Program Is
Emphasized By Leading
Lansing Students?
(By Denver Blevins, President
Lansing Senior Glass;

Ashe county's high schools empha-
size several activities for the stud
ents to take part IN other than their
regular class work, but one Of vast
importance has been almost un-
emphasized. That is debating.
I think that debating should be
highly emphasized in Ashe county's
high schools because: "a large per
cent, in fact 500 of students when
graduated from high school, will
need to know public speaking to a
certain extent, if it is nothing more
than applying for job. In the
meantime that could be afforded in
high school because debating re-
quires original speeches. One may
memorize a reading or poem and
present it before an audience. 1t
will help some, but it cannot be
compared with searching several
libraries, many magazines, and the
daily newspapers and writing sever
al letters to authorities on the sub
ject to secure information for a de-
bate. Then working for several
long hours boiling" this material
down into a speech capable of win
ming a judges decision.
A lawyer cannot recite a pretty
little poem and win a jury's de-
cision; salesman cannot give a
reading and convince housewife to
buy a vacuum cleaner, nor minis
ter cannot tell an antidote and con-
vert a sinner, neither can politi-
clan give defamation and gel
elected, or after he has been elect
ed can be tell fairy tale and cause
a bill to become law.
Debating teaches us to listen as
well as to speak. IF one is a good
speaker he must also be a good list
ener. Debaters listen very closely
to his opponents speech and try te
counter-act it if possible. Thi:
teaches quick thinking and mote
taking. I understand that mote
taking" is of vital importance t.
ones college life. I heard a college
student say not long ago that hi
work was very difficult when hi
first entered college due to the fac
that he could not take notes eff

to take notes rapidly and effective
ly he Immediately began to make

good grades.

I suggest that debating be brought
up before the house and discussed
at the next teachers meeting, de-
eide on a query, and make plans for
an "Ashe County Debating Contest,
just as we have basketball tourna-
ments, allowing each high school to
be represented by antaoin- hapem-
I think that this would create a LOT
of interest for the many students
who are interested in debating and
not athletics. It would be education
al as well an entertaining.

Unidentified Publicity
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON : Son,e ship operators and
Senator Royal s. Copeland of New York have
been pcturing life on shipboard in the I. S.
merchant marine as a bedlam Of insubordina-
ton and insolence TO passengers.
The picture might be less blurred Il insiders
were not aware that 1t was accompanied by
certain amount of eXaggeration.
Even some of the most sympathetic friends
OF the maritime labor unions. which are roar
ing denialS at the charges believe there have
been at least isolated instances of acts by
sailors, stewards ana other ship employees that
no one can condone. Il IS far from apparent,
however. whether these instances are really isol-
ated or whether they represent condition SO
general that II threatens the merchant marine.
Not all ship operators appear anxious to
blare the alleged miSdeedS OF American sailors
into the headlines Some operators are aware
that recent inspired publicity IS bound to scare
more and more passengers off their ships. That
fact is much more certain than is the chance
that Copeland and the operators will be able
to get legislation designed to bring the seamen
under control
Recently a passenger liner officer. identified
only as Captain x" laid down a blast which
accused seamen of every imaginable oftense
and misdemeanor. Thanks to Senator Copeland,
his testimony played up as that of a mar
whose name was kept secret lest he be aSsaSsi-
mated by union seamen Captain X
promised that his testimony wouldn't appear in
the newspapers.
The captain told friends that the shipping
company which employs him didn't want him
" SO u HdSllllSlOll ana llldl he Qlull WdnI
his testimony made public because it would hurt
the merchant marine. He scoffed at the story
that he feared bodily injury
Whether Captain x exaggerated or told
the plain simple truth IS a question obscured
by the unprecedented action OF Copeland in
keeping his name out Of the record on the al
legged ground that he feared being killed
Ordinarily witness before a Senate commit
tee is identified and the men he accuses have a
chance to answer specific charges In this case
the record contains Identification of men
accused or their ships. The picture OBJ
Yiously twisted for publicity purposes that the
question OF whether American seamen are being
maligned as a group still remains open
The only things that impartial outsiders can
be sure OF are that American sailors in some
instances have not become accustomed to their
new-found freedom and power as members of
militant unions; that some American merchant
marine officers are not yet accustomed to dealing
with crews which demand the right to present
grievances; and that some shipping operators
regret the probable passing of exploitation wages
bad living conditions and complete domination
OF crews.

One Question
RemaIns-HoW?

Sam Hume, eloquent lecturer who
spoke in El Centre on several occasions
Thursday, carried most enligatening
message. Il was not SO much new mes
sage, as it was Qualification of the
doubts and misgivings which fill the
minds of almost everyone nowadays
Briefly, Mr.. Hume reasons thus:
u The American system comprises
inseparable union of political, social, and
economic conditions. One cannot be sep
arated from the others without destroy
ing them, and economic unrest thus
threatens this intricate web into which
is woven the lives of 80 million Ameri-
can people.
(2) The economic system in this coun-
try, in turn, consists of q continuous
chain operation, from farmer to process
sor To distributor to retailer to public
to mechandise to manufacturer to work
er. etc. Disruption of any link by labor
troubles, disrupts everyone in every line
of activity.
(3) To such labor troubles there are
three parties: the employer, the labor un-
ions and the public. The public, or third
party, far outnunlbers either Of the other
two.
(4) The first two parties are partly
right. Organized labor, collective bar
gaining. peaceful strikes and peaceful
picketing are in accord with the Ameri-
can system. as long as the object is i'm
provement of the working mans condi-
ton. Employers, as a rule, are coming
to realize that they cannot treat labor as
a raw product.
(5) But labor and capital are partly
wrong The labor union group has be-
come drunk with new power and is be-
ing dictated to by internal, strong arm
minorities. A kind of "fascism within
the ranks which robs the union member
of his freedom Likewise, employers
include those who would crush the en-
ployed.
90 The public. the third party whose
American rights are at stake, must in
sist on taking part, and see that both
sides get a fair deal.
The question is: "How can the third
party, the public. get together?'
Imperial Valley press., 1938-01-28
The Farmers Fight
Fire with Fire

The farmers of Imperial county have
sounded their answer to the question:
How shall the public protect itself?
Their answer is By organization.
When a hundred Imperial county
farmers met at the county court house
the other day to form their own trans
portation association. they did some
thing that most of the farmers of Cali
fornia will be doing before the end of
another Il months. They lighted fire
to fight the IRE that threatens them
with economic ruin.
Behind the action was the history of
recent trGable with the Pacific Coast
Teamsters' Union, which has interfered
with and attempted to prevent shipment
of any farm produce from Imperial Val
lev unless it was carried in trucks driven
by members Of the union. The union has
attempted TO dictate to farmers the con-
ditions under which they can make their
shipments, the amount they must pay
for hau1age and the men they can hire.
The farmers don't like it.
The new transportation association
will say to truckers you cannot haul
farm produce from Imperial Valley un-
less We approve of you There will be
no attemptt to back the order by physical
force The associations power lies in
the fact that It has almost unanimous
support Of the farmers, who agree not
to ship in trucks that have not been
approved by their group. In such peace
ful power rests assured success.
