EDENTON TO MAKE
MUCH PEANUT OIL
$50 Tons of "GoObers" in Warehouses
There To Be Diverted To
Other Purposes
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Feb. 21.-Edenton always
has lots of peanuts. Soon there's go
ing to be plenty Of peanut oil in the
Chowan capital.
The marketing division of the State
Department of Agriculture has just
been advised by c. c. Holland, man
ager of the Peanut Sterilization Co
operative of Edenton that the secre-
tary of agriculture has approved di-
version (and conversion) into oil of
26O tons of peanuts in warehouses
there.
Objective Of the diversion is to re-
duce the quantity of edible "goob-
ers" on the market, with view to
maintaining prices at a level where
there will be a, profit for the grower
A large percentage of the peanut
growers contended unsuccessfully to
have their crop included in the crop
control bill just passed by Congress,
but the effort failed when the Fed
eral Department of Agriculture said
that the "goober' growers would be
better off outside.
According to E. F. Arnold, secretary
of the North Carolina Farm Bureau
Federation, efforts will he made to
secure passage of independent legis-
lation providing for crop control. A
recent meeting of peanut farmers
from a dozen North Carolina and
many Virginia counties called on the
Federal department to show them
where they would be "better off, out
side the control bill.
All peanuts accepted by the coop
erative were inspected for grade and
class by licensed representatives OF
the Department of Agriculture.

TALKS MAY BRING
PEACE TO CzECHS
Premier Hodza to Conduct
Steps This Week With
Sudeten Leaders.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PRAHA, May 30.-The progress OF
peace parleys this week may determine
the chances of effective compromise
between the German and Czech ele-
ments of this postwar republic.
The second of three Sunday mu-
nicipal elections yesterday showed. as
did those last week, that 80 to 95 per
cent of the vote in German commun-
tiles is solidly behind Konrad Henlein,
the Sudeten German "Fuehrer." Czech
communities among the 2.740 where
elections were held followed a trend
to the left.
1t was taken for granted the third
and final election. on June IL. would
confirm the results Of the first two,
giving Mr.. Henlein a powerful ad-
vantage in his claims to represent the
3,5OO,00O Sudeten German minority
for which he demands sweeping priv
ileges OF self government.
Protest in Advance.
Nevertheless. German Socialists and
Communists were protesting in ad-
vance against any compromise that
might be reached without consulting
them.
Premier Milan Hodza will conduct
the peace negotiations, which prob
ably will continue through the week.
with Sudeten German party leaders.
Mr.. Eenlein paid preliminary visit
to Premier Hodza week ago, but
further talks were postponed because
of Mr.. Henlein's absence from Praha
on what was described as private
business.
The basic difficulty to compromise.
in the eyes of neutral observers here,
is how to work out plan whereby
a whole section of the population.
which Is Nazi German, can be granted
the concessions Of lf-government
by q state which is struggling to
defend its independence against the
powerful state of Chancellor Adolf
Hitler.
Optimism Apparent.
Some optimism was apparent, how
ever, because the Sudeten Germans
and Premier Hodza were willing at
least to talk things over.
The elections yesterday were quiet,
with only one serious clash, at Eiben-
berg in the border region near Ger
many A Henlein follower and three
Socialists were hurt and police ar
rested IS rioters.
Disorders before the May % elec-
tion brought German troop move
ments toward the frontier-routine
maneuvers according to Berlin;
Czechoslovakia, likewise, moved nearly
half million soldiers along her
frontiers, particularly that with Ger
many.
The government feared Germany
might invade the country to attempt
coup similar to that by which
Austria was annexed Czechs still
fear such an attempt may one day
be made, and believe peace lies in
amicable settlement of the Sude:en
German demands.

VANDENBERG HITS
TRADING LIBERTY
Effort to Exchange 1t for

Both, He Says.
By the Associated Press.

GETTYSBURG, Pa. May 30.-Over
the graves of the soldiers who fell
while the cannon thundered IS years
ago, Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg OF
Michigan declared today that those
who try to trade liberty for security
might lose both.
Standing beside the marble monu-
ment where Lincoln pledged that
Government of the people, by the
people. for the people. shall not perish
from the EARTH" Senator Vandenbere
said the United. States has come to
another Gettysburg"
This time the crisis Is civil. not
military, he told the assembled
thruug
Declaring the Constitution must be
preserved to safeguard Lincoln's
pledge and democracy, Senator VAN
denberg said. "One present breach in
the dixie of the Constitution-inconse
quential though it may seem at the
moment-can loose the final food"
If the Constitution needs change"
he asserted. 1T can properly be
changed only by the people them
selves Any other change is treason
treason to American heritage-treason
to Gettysburg-treason to Memorial
Day."
Subversive Forces Hit.
Terming this "a world in which
democracy under a flag lies wounded
mt. doofb Carafor VopSopharu
sounded an alarm against "subversive
forces" which he said undermine this
Government" He added:
Il refer not only to those open agi-
tators who would uproot and over
throw the American system. but also
versive manipulators and regimenters
who would chain US to centralized
bureaucracy at Washington"
"It &. not mean." he said, that the
American system is a static thing. I
do not mean that we should forebear
emphatically mean that all change is
not progress. l do mean that our
basic principles of government of. by
and for the people-our constitutional
checks and balances--are just as sound
and just as precious now as at any
other moment in the last century and
half. do mean that this is Gov
ernment of laws and not of men. I
do mean that those who try to trade
liberty for security are likely to lose
both"
Fraternity Of Interests.
Declaring that out of Gettysburg
came a reunited Nation, Vandenberg
added:
I'VE found the means to reunite
ourselves in a wedlock that shall know
no death. America could not exist
without this fraternity of interest.
But here again there are new Gettys-
burgs to be fought and won. We are
torn today by class dissentions and
class consciousness. Our people are
divided into hostile groups. each striv-
ing relentlessly for its own objectives
regardless of the common veal.
In recent years we have been
taught actually to hate one another
to call each other harsh and invidious
names. 1t will not do, my country
msn I care not whether the strife
be between farmer and industrialist,
between employer and employe, or be-
tween those who have and those who
have not. In our America, we sink or
swim together. United we stand; di-
vided we fall. We cannot pull the
lower one-third up by pulling all
three thirds down. America is a
partnership between 13o,000,0O0 peo-
pie"
