THE nation is now faced with
the stark realism that despite
all of the New Deals theatricals,
its catch phrases and it dema-
gogery, and depitc its wasteful
expenditure of nineteen billion
dollars of the peoples money
there are more unemployed men
and women in the country today
than there were in March. 1898.
There is every Indication t h Il t
the people are demanding a
change, and that change will
reflect itself in a substantilc
increased Republican representa-
ton in the halls of congress.
The welfare of the state and
the future of the nation call for
the election of sane and patriotic
men and women. The Republican
party must furnish t h a { kind
of candidates, and, aided by
thousands of patriotic Demo
Gratis, must elect them. A New
Deal victory i'm November means
an end of democracy in this land.
Let no one be deceived about il.
On the other hand, Rcpubli-
can victory in the congreSsion-
al elections will be but the sig
nal that patriotic America is ON
the march-the signal that will
start us on the way out of the
economic chaos and confusion
produced by the New Deal.
Although it is important to
elect Republicans to the Icgisla
ture and to local offices, attcn-
ton should be conferred on the
congressional candidates. They
will head the ticket, and state
and local candidates will stand
or fall with them. Besides, Il
congressional victory will have
a psychological value out Of all
proportions to any that might
be obtained through the election
of local Republican candidates. "

JAPS SUFFER DEFEAT
IN SOUTH SRAATUNG
Is Direct Cause of Serious Crisis
In Cabinet; Chinese Hit Back
AT Jap ARMY in Interior and
Infiict $4,000 Casualties on
Nippon Army of $4,000 Men

Tokyo, April 20. (CNA)-A
A serious crisis confronted the
Japanese Cabinet this week fol
lowing series of humiliating
defeats in Japan's large-scale
invasion of China. Premier
Prince Fumimaro Keneye is
seriously considering handing in
his resignation, sources close to
the government limited.
The most serious Japanese
reverses occurred in South Shan
tung province where highly
mechanical Japanese army of
$4,000 men was completely rout-
ed by Chinese regulars and
guerrilla fighters. More than
$4,000 Japanese were reported
killed or captured by the victor
on Chinese.
The Japanese offensive in
South Shantung was launched
late in March by a number of
crack divisions. Driving south
ward along the Tientsin-Pukow
railway, the invaders began
pounding against the Chinese
positions in the Taierhchwang-
Suchow sector, but the Chinese
did not yield.
Then Chinese Guerrillas
launched a series of smashing
attacks behind the Japanese
lines, cutting their communica-
lions and effectually preventing
transportation of supplies to
troops at the front. JAPANESE
airplanes attempted dropping
food and munitions, but this
proved sufficient.
The desperate Japanese men
found themselves facing a big
Chinese army of excellent morale
and then the advance to the
rear and slaughter began. So
great has been the debacle that
when t h JAPANESE retreated
they even abandoned their dead
and wounded, a thing heretofor
unknown in modern Japanese
military history.
Another Chinese drive thru
southeastern ShanFi has gone
by Koaping, near the Honan
are pressing close into the Peip-
ing-Hankow railway near Chang
teh, in northern Honan. They
have driven the Japanese from
Suiychehen, II miles west Of
Changteh.
The Japanese are preparing
huge counter-offensive, seek
ing to make all possible haste
before the fact are widely known
abroad and at home. Japan's
German and Italian allies in the
Rome-Berlin-Tokyo axis are re
ported to be following the situa-
ton with the greatest anxiety.

Saw Honorable Joe Phipps,
sheriff of Guilford county,
along Elm street. Sheriff
Phipps is one Of the finest men
ever, and in the years to come,

Ralf has said that MEMORY

Memory is times reward for
the holiness Of men. Holiness
is not a religious dream Of false

Memory again is the urge Of
