no more than their evil charac-
tiers. What about them?
AS long as we have criminals
we shall be obliged to have agen-
cies for controlling and furnishing
them. Before we can ever have in
ternational security there must be
some workable means of polising
the world as cities are policed,
ard of adequately furnishing vio-
lators of world security.
When Japan violated her peace
treaty and invaded Manchuria
there should have been an inter-
national force that would have
gone over there and captured
those responsible for the crime;
and an international tribunal that
would have tried them; and an in
ternational agency that would
have executed them. Or the ma
tions should have combined diplo-
matically and economically against
Japan until she surrendered her
war instigators. And when Mus
solini invaded Ethiopia he should
hav ebeen punished the same way
but had the world powers dealt
effectively with Japan, there
would have been no reason to
hang Mussolini, for he would have
been good little wop, and it
would not now be necessary for
England and France to be enter
ing into soul-besmirching agree
ments with him, to prevent En-
ropean holocaust - and which
will not be prevented but merely
deferred. If all that big talk in
1917 and 1913 about hanging the
Kaiser had not petered out igno-
miniously the effect on world
peace would have been wonderful.
We are a long way from dis
armament - a longer way than
we were ten years ago. And the
United States for its refusal to
do it's part in establishing and
maintaining world security, is the
greatest sinner of all; a sin of
omission, you know, can be more

SUMMER BUSINESS IS PROMISING
HERE

Notwithstanding nationwide untavor-
able business conditions, general opinion,
in so far as this newspaper has been aole
to gather it, is that such conditions VIII IN
terfere but little with the tourist business
This season. The country still has millions
of people who are, financially and other-
wise. in position to ride around, go places,
and take their usual vacations. A large
proportion of the population will not be
prevented by existing economic conditions
from making their accustomed excursions
10 new scenes and hitherto unvisited Sec
lions of the country.
AS far as the Hendersonville area is con-
cerned, we are confident the foregoing estl-
mate will hold good.
We can count on the large number OF
people who are the owners OF property
here to come for their usual Summer stay.
We believe it is equally certain that the
class of Summer residents who lease prop
erty, or in some other way arrange to
spend several months here, will come in as
large numbers as usual. 1t is also practi-
tally certain that the large number OF Wis
itors who come and go, or remain for short
stays, will mount to as large proportions
jas the town and section will be able 10
entertain.
Also, it may be noted that in larger and
larger numbers people from every section
and corner of the United States are visit
ing the Smoky Park and this tide Of tour
80 80 - o,s+o,+11, ox,arfl n rp;nor into oil
of the adjacent country. Many of these
people, this Summer and in time to come,
will visit Hendersonville and the area i'm
mediately surrounding this place.
On the whole, there is no good reason
to suppose that this year or in any future
year, unless there is an economic collapse
and absolute breakdown throughout the
nation, the tourist business of this section
will be destroyed. The chances are it will
continue and flourish. So, for whatever it
is worth to HendersonVille, we have the
tourist business. We not only have it, but
have the opportunity to build it to greater
proportions and TO make it more profitable
than it has been in past years
This newspaper concludes that the peo-
pie of HendersOnville and this territory
are aware of these facts and conditions.
Preparations being made for the Summer
business indicates an understanding on the
part of those residents catering to the tour
list business and other classes of citizens as
well. Hendersonville and the Henderson,
vile territory will be able to greet Sum-
mer visitors with greatly increased and i'm
proved facilities and accommodations
, This Information is broadcast to the
public for the reinsurance of ali who wish
TO come. AT the same time, The Times
News urges for the consideration and in
slant action of our people that anything
that can be done within the next thirty
days to increase facilities and improve
conditions for tourist entertainment, should
be done promptly. There are profits for
those engaged in the tourist business and
for the community and section as whole
in the continued development of these ia
oilities
