AueriU Has

In the Sir ".~iIr- Hotel.
BY HENRY AVERILL

Raleigh. Nov. G2-Win, lose OI

they should pay some especial tribute
to young Dick Reynolds.
That seems not just the consensus.
but the unanimous opinion OF those
familiar with the manner in which
the comparative political novice from
Forsyth has succeeded with the I'M
usually tough job of raising money
for the Roosevelt-Wailace Campaign
in North Carolina.
When Dick was named. it seemed
to many that he had. in his innocence
of the wiles of politics. permitted
himself to be saddled with something
nobody wanted because it was a
hopeless job.
The figures aren't final act: but il
already begins to appear that the ma
tional Democratic ticket is going TO
wind up with almost the same
amount of financial support in North
Carolina that it attracted in 1886.
And here's the rub-outsidc of For
syth county, the job is going to be a
much better one.
The total raised four years ago
was around $4,000, of which no less
/ than $4,000 was from Forsyth
donors. This year Reynolds is going
to close his books with an absolute
minimum of $4,000 in contributions
they may even show $4,000.
Even on the basis of $4,000, how
ever, it takes only simple subtraction
to show that there has been raised in
SO counties this time not less than
$4,000, against no more than S26,-
| 600 last Too. the total number of
contributors this year is going 10
soar far above that of 1886; with the
surprising feature the number of
middle size gifts contributed by mid
| dle-class business men.
For this remarkable record every
body agrees that Reynolds is wholly
responsible. Hence his right TO spccIa!
recognition.
