HAGOOD CALLS FOR
RATIONAL DEFENSE
PLAN FOR AMERICA

TULSA, Okla, May 10, (IPl.
America is the only first-class
mower in the world that can be
absolutely insured against getting
into a European or Asiatic war
and at the same time protect itself
against invasion, General Johnson
Hagood, retired army officer, said
in 4 letter to the Tulsa peace
council.
In the characteristic Hagood
style Of "uSing words with hair
on Them" the former army man
asserted that it may. not be. pos
Sible to have peace, but that the
United States can keep out OF
war.
eve cannot keep snakes out of
India. We cannot raise the stand

in Tulsa or in Washington or in
London could have stopped Adolf
Hitler from marching to Vienna,
nor from precipitating a war il
the Austlians had put up any re-
sistance." Hagood said.

BERRY Opens
SENATE RACE
Favors IVA But Attacks
Flood Control and Pow
er Agency Policy

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May 10.
UrP)-Gcorge L., Berry, wealthy
labor leader. last night opened ms
campaign for Democratic renonl-
nation to the l.. S. senate with a
defense Of his widely publclzed
$5,O00,000 marble claims against
Tennessee Valley Authority.
A three-man commission. ap-
pointed By. the L. S. district
court, recently ruled Berry and
his associates did not have a valid
claim for damages they asked for
marble properties inundated by
Norris Dam lake.
Berry was appointed by GOV
ernor Gordon Browning. and IS
opposed by Representative }. Rid
lev Mitchell, +. w. Carmack,
Murfrcesboro, and Tom Stewart,
supported by f. II. Crump, Mem
phis political boss who is throwing
the strength Of his machine
against Browning candidates. =
Crump'S candidates are strong
~ rro-TVA.
Berry said he favored IVA III
"principlc," but attacked consti-
tutionality of the federal q flood
control and power agency as it IS
operating. ,
Referring to the, marble claims,
Berry said - over, statewide
radio hookup--the "onIy ,litiga-
ton that has occurred was pre-
cipitated by the iva board" and
they. after four years Of pro-
crastination and delay, finally
agreed among themselves to bring
condemnation proceedings against
these properties"
He said charges of bad faith"
were not sustained by the three
man board.
He believed the great POSSIBLE
ties of the IVA have been seri-
ously abridged ard handicapped
because of the differences be-
tween the directors of the author
ity."

High Point Man
Enters British
Golfing Tourney
One of Dozen Americans
Favored by Britons to
Win Amateur Cup
By HARRY L. PERCY
United Press Staff Correspondent mt

LONDON, May 10. (UPl.-~One
Of 4 dozen American entrants was
favored to win the 1888 British
amateur golf championship de-
spite handicapS of an unlucky
draw Yesterday that placed seven
OF the l.. S. players in the second
Quarter bracket and paired two
DINERS in ! firSt-round match.
British critics are SO unimpreSs-
ed by the cahber of home talent
that they give few Britishers
among the I'll entrants any
chance To withstand the American
challenge backed by nine Walker
Gun team members. The amateur
viii be played Ut Troon, Scotland
May 23-2S.
Unly American entrants outside
the Walker team were Bobby
Dunkrlberger OF High Point, ~.
c., and Charlie llunSon, Jr., OF
Fairfield, NY. The 18th entry,
Tommy Sutfern Taller, w alker
cup team alternate player OF New
ork, is not expected TO make the
trim. Kumuis that hollywood's
iokn Montague would enter prov
I'd false.
Charley Yates of Atlanta, and
Johnny Fischer, Cincinnati, two
oil the cup squads outstanding
rlaycrs. were uniucky enough to
be- drawn against each other in
the first round. They are the only
American candidates in the third
quarter bracket, and alter the
first day only one OF them will be
left to fight his way into the semi
finals.
Although none were drawn
against each other in the second
quarter, seven L. S. players found
their way into this section. They
were Walker cup captain, Francis
Ouimet, Boston; Marvin Ward,
Olympia, Wash; Ray Billows,
Poughkeepsie, \. y; Reynolds
Smith, Dallas, Texas; Johnny
Goodman, Omaha; Chucvk kocSis,
Detroit, and Munson.
One of these is virtually certain
of q semi-tinal berth because only
mediocre British opposition faces
them. ..
Uunkelberger and taller were
the only Americans drawn in the
top. quarter and the latter, who
will not compete, drew 3 first
round bye. Fred Haas, Jr., OF
New Orleans, WAS the only L. ).
cntrant in the fourth quarter.
Interest was shown in the posi-
ton Of Jimmy Bruen, lS-year-ild
prodigy who made the British
Walker team for the first time
this year with his sensational
shooting in the tryouts ut st. An
drews last weekend. He carded L
IS in his first round. The only
American amateur who ever play
ed the difficult layout in that fig
ure was Bobby Jones.
Bruen was drawn in the first
quarter with his team-mate Cor
don Peters, Dunkelberger, and
Somelville, but probably will pass
up the amateur altogether.
The American-born defending
champion, Robert Sweeny, is an
unknown quantity" this season,
and virtually none of the critics
give him a chance to retain his
title.

prohibiting diversion was favored.
For the eight-odd miles of unpaved
road over which the commissioners
drove, coughing and splitting dust,
probably convinced them that the pro-
vision of North Cardinals county
seat to county seat paved highway
complied with in this particular sec
ton.
Representatives of the four eastern
counties are working. hard for the
anti-diversion amendment in the
firm belief that if use of road funds
for other purposes can be stopped
there will be funds available for real
highway Improvement in that section.
The immediate questions at issue
are whether there shall be some paw
ing done on the route travelled by
the commissioners, whether there
are to be two bridges over the ALI
gator and Croatan or whether there
shall be toll-free ferries. In any case
ho---o'ro". funds will be needed.
Recently the county commissioners
OF lac, Hyde, Tyrell and Washing
ton met in Columbia and unanimous
ly passed a resolution favoring an
anti-diversion- amendment. Leading
chairman of the Hyde board and who
in the movement was w. w. Watson,
is also president Of the N. c. Associa-
ton of County Commissioners.
Many prospective legislators from
the section have endorsed submis-
sin of the amendment, among them
being D. Bradford Fearing, moving
spirit of the Lost Colony" celebra-
ton at Roanoke Island who is now
a candidate for the State Senate.
L believe that such an amendment
will be helpful all citizens in pro-
viding more roads and I will, Of
course, do all I can to carry out the
wishes Of the people in this matter

ONCE UPON APRIL SOth

Only one man in American judicial
history was ever branded by order of
a federal court. He was Captain
jonathan Walker, who died 60 years
ago today in Muskegon county, Mich
gan at the age of so. He was buried
in Evergreen Cemetery, Muskegon,
where today there stands monument
bearing his name, and above it the
figure of hand with the curious in
scription, Captain Walkers Branded
Hand"
The letters S. S. were branded into
Walkers hand 20 years before his
death, after he had been convicted of
transporting seven runaway slaves
aboard his lake vessel to enable them
20 escape into Canada and freedom.
Whittier wrote a celebrated poem
about him, The Man With the Brand
ed Hand
The branded letters never faded.
They blazed upon his hand long after
all slaves had been freed.
