would be no chance to reduce the
$725O00,000 relief appropriation bii
in the Senate. The veteran Virginian
said he favored cutting the ALLEGATION
but it was evident there would be to-
much opposition to permit this.
Glass said he would concentrate
his efforts, therefore, against any
Increase.
Also, President Roosevelt express
ed the belief that an International con-
ference to work out the problem of
how to dispose of surplus cotton
would be very good. He told pre- IS
conference. that latest reports on the
proposed wheat conference were that
1T was going very we'll in aiming to
ward control of world surpluses. He
said he thought the same thing might
be worked out for cotton.
With most of his New Deal social
and economic program enacted, the
President reached the middle of his
second term today to find a growing
independence in Congress, and uncer-
tainty clouding the outcome of his ap-
peals for united liberalism.
The biggest popular vote in history
ushered him to his second inaugura-
ton in the rain two years ago this
noon.- His. sway over the biggest
Democratic majority ever in Congress
was, but little disputed Many persons
talked of an era of good feeling
similar to that which followed James
Monroe's nearly unanimous election
in 1920.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-01-20
Money, Money,
Money.

If there is a department in the
State government in Raleigh, with a
possible single exception, that is not
bounding the General Assembly for
more and more money to spend, it
would be interesting to hear its
name. A constant parade is passing
in review before the appropriations
committees, with officials explain
ing the manner in which the skies
will fall unless they are provided
with more specialists, experts, clerks,
stenographers, or what have you, to
enable them to carry on.
These fellows have so long been
attached to the public bounty that
apparently they give little thought
and are little concerned as to where
or how the money is obtained, so
lcng as it is dumped into their cof-
fers to spend in surrounding them
selves with a coterie of henchmen
for the building and maintaining of
a political organization that will fight
to keep them in office.
Modern, twentieth century life and
government have become quite COM
plex-much more so, indeed, than
one ever would have thought pos
sible a couple of decades ago. But it
Isl not so much so that it demands
or justifies the vast expenditures of
Taxpayers money to support the
political octopus that is squeezing
the life out of private enterprise, and
with little care or concern for that
enterprise other than the amount
cf money that can be extracted from
it.
If the present State machine can
not function with the revenues the
people may reasonably be expected
to provide, then let that machine
trim it's sails and cut it's garment
according to the cloth. That is what
other people have to do when they
haven't the money for the things
they would like. 1t makes no diff
ference how desirable or urgent a.
project may be, if it cannot be af-
forded it should be done without.
Taxpayers are sick and tired Of
being gouged for almost their last
dollar for the support of many func-
tions of government that are not es-
sential. If it is impossible as they
claim, to get along without divertine
into other channels some $1,000, 900
extracted for highway purposes, then
let's not try to do these impossible
things. If the motorists of North
Carolina are paying more money into
the State treasury than is necessary
to maintain the highway system, then
the thing to do is to lower the gaso-
Line tax or the automobile license fee.
Is it right to collect money for one
purpose and then spend it for an
other?
There is all too much of the color
of racketeering in modern day taxing
policies of government agencies. Too
much of the money exacted from tax
payers is being used to build political
organizations and to put on the pub
lie payrolls at fat salaries, because
they are supposed to be good politi-
clans and vote-getters, host of men
who never have earned and never
could earn in private business such
generous stipends as they receive
Which might produce some Thought
as to their inn ate ability and fitness
And how the public payrolls are clut-
tered up with. this typel -.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1939-01-20
Court House Offices

It seems impossible to make enough
room in the court house for the
needs of the county. For many
years the commissioners had a place
to meet, but one office after another
has been created and rooming quart
ers provided for them until the board
has been crowded out of it's own
house and home.
1t is regrettaIble that one side of
the front stairway to the court room
has to be torn away to create offices.
But if more room is to be provided,
that would appear to be last resort.
Certainly the county commissioners
are entitled to a place in which to
hold their meetings. What they are
getting in the present process, how
ever, is barely more than a mere
cuddyhole, and may not long be found
adequate.
The master mistake was made in
the failure to undertake erection of
a new court house when PWA money
was flowing down the gutter and
could be had for the mere scooping
up. A building that would meet the
countys requirements for many
years could probably be had for
$15O,OOO. Nearly half the amount
could have been obtained as a free
gift from the government, and prob
ably much more than half through
the method of keen maneuvering at
which officials of political sub-divi-
sions have in late years become so
proficient Certainly for an outlay
of some $65,OOO to $4,000 of county
expenditure, a modern court house
could have been acquired.
A large portion of that amount has
been spent in repairs, remodeling
ard additions, and still the county
has only the shell of building. You
cannot put new wine in old bottles
in the twentieth century any more
than it could be done in the first.
Count in the new Jail house, and all
the outlay on the court house itself
if you can get anybody tc tell you
what the amount is-and see just
what proportion that would be of
the actual cost of modern court
house, with a combination of offices,
court room and Jail on top. While a
Let of the money has been persuaded
out of free government agencies, it
was money just the same. Had all
of it gone into the kind of court
house and Jail the county needs and
has needed for long time, we would
have something today that would be
modern and of which we could justly
be proud.
By failing to get this free money
while it was free. the day of easy
CdSn may soon pass, and when the
rewess of repairs and renovations
recently completed has worn away,
and that won't be long, we will be
right back where we were before,
with a government so buried in debt
that it will never see daylight again
in the present generation unless it
resorts to wholesale and disastrous
initiation.

|Irregularity
Among Stocks

New York, Jan. 2O.-(AF)- Rally
ing tendencies faded from the stock
market today, and about the best that
could be said of the proceedings was
that prices were no worse than mildly
irregular. At the start, the list acted
as though it would extend the late
run-up Of Thursday. Light selling soon
made it's appearance, however, and
initial small gains were erased ir.
many instances. Dealings were
apathetic near the fourth hour. Bonds
