]. ID. Stansberry
To Be Unopposed
Prof. A. B. Hurt Withdraws And
COP Executive Committee
Met Saturday.

J. D. Stansberry, who has been
clerk of the superior court in Ashe
county for the past Is years, will
not be opposed for reelection this
fall.
At the Republican convention in
August, Prof. A. B. Hurt, principal
of the Nathan's Creek high school,
was elected as the COP candidate
for the office. Shortly after this Sc
lection, Mr.. Hurt withdrew from the
race and at a meeting of the Repub-
lican executive committee last Sat-
urday, it was decided not to place
a candidate in the field to oppose
Mr.. Stansberry.
Mr.. Stansberry is regarded as be-
ing one of the most efficient SUI
perior court clerks in the state and
he is liked in every section of the
county.
In withdrawing Prof. Hurt stated
that his school duties kept him ex-
tremely busy and that he was not
seeking any political Offices. He was
not present at the convention.

Run A Close Race
/, In New York State

Albany, Sept 21.-The conserva-
tive and the new deal-sponsored
candidate fought a nip-and- tuck
battle in New York's 10Th congress
sional (gas house) district early to-
day as see-sawing primary returns
gave neither a decisive advantage.
Representative John j. O'Connor,
chairman of the House rules COM
mittee and described by President
Roosevelt as a "betrayer" of new
deal principles, was running a close
race with James A. Fay, favorite of
the administration, in the Democrat
ic primary.
Complete unofficial returns from
40 out of "a election districts in the
Democratic primary gave: O'Con-
nor 1868; Fay 4,724.
In the Republican primary, where
OConnor also was a candidate, op-
posed by Allen w. Dulles, early re-
turns from Is precincts gave:
O'Connor 1856; Dulles $50.

clusons are correct But it is always of interest to

cate that the United States is rapidly approaching
the ultimate peak of population. In another ten
or twelve years, say around 1850 births and deaths
will balance each other, and the population will be
stabilized at about 145 Millions More of them will be
elderly, fewer young people,
Right now the high schools and colleges of the ma
ton are overcrowded. The children born OF mar
riages right after the war are filling them There
were more babies born in America in 1921 than my
year before or SINCE So for dozen years from now
on there will be more marriages, new homes
needed more babies born as these young folks set
up their families.
But the birth-rate is declining, and from 1850 ON
the annual increase in population will grow smaller
and smaller. At the same time the average lift OF
Americans is becoming longer and longer So the
time seems to be approaching when there Will be
twice as many elderly people as there now and
third half fewer young people,
Such changes will have wide economic effects.
Businesses which cater to the young will decline.
Businesses which supply commodities to older peo-
pie will grow. There will be less demand for milk
and for childrens clothing more for things which
provide comfort for the midde-aged.
That is what the future looks like Nobody can
guess what may happen to change the picture. But
it is something interesting to think about.

Attention To Details

WHETHER business executive should pay much
attention to details leave all minor matters to
subordnates has been the sub ect of discussion from
time to time The late Harvey S. Firestone, one OF
the ablest of American executives, once expressed
himself on this question, and his views are briefly
given in the following paragraphs.
An executive cannot grandly dismiss details.
Business is made up of details and notice that the
chief executive who disnsses them is quite likely to
dismiss his business.
"Success is the sum Of detail 1t might perhaps be
pleasing to imagine oneself beyond detail and engag-
ed only in great things but have often Observed
if attends only to great things and let's the little
things pass, the great things become little; that is
the business shrinks.
'It is not possible for an executive to hold himself
aloft from anything. No business, no matter what
it's sze can be called safe until it has been forced to
learn economy and rigidly to measure values Of men
and materials"

hire the washing done.
