If only a few ballots are dropped
into the boxes, the county's repre-
sentatives will have less power and
fewer votes when the convention is
held to select party candidates.
The delegates and votes are al
located according to the number of
votes cast in the gubernatorial race
and a light vote will mean a de-
finite decrease in power and influ-
enc for the county's delegates to
the states conventions.
The registrars may be reached at

E IMPRESSIVE

The world still awaits the outcome of a
major engagement, presumably to be in the
Trondheim sector, to form some opinion of
the comparative strength and power for vic
tory OF the Allied and the NaZi forces in Nor
way. Thus far dispatches dealing with troop
movements in the Scandinavian war have
given no accurate hint of how matters stand.
restricting their information chiefly to minor
advances and retreats, probably because the
correspondents do not know what goes en- be-
hind the scenes or, if they do, are not permit
ted by strict censorship to reveal it..
But there is some significance in the tenor
Of dispatches originating in Berlin and in
London. AS day follows day, the Nazis claim
more and more advantage as the battle nears,
while the Allies become more and more silent.
The Berlin propaganda bureau, where Nazi
news originates, seems determined to impress
the world with the idea that German forces
are moving ahead with the certainty of a Jug
gernaut-invincible in all circumstances.
This attitude, characteristic of the HITLER
philosophy though it be, may be the equivalent
of Whistling in the dark. Not only do the Nazis
seek to bolster good will among the neutrals
with stories of successes on the land and in
the air, but also to strengthen home morale.
This, of course, is only one possible .explana-
ton Of the Nazi claims, which lack confirma-
ton from authoritative sources. German
forces in Norway may be actually laying the
foundation for defeat of the Allied army op-
posed to them. On the other hand, it may be
correct. At least it finds support in the silence
in London regarding Allied troop concentra-
tions and a reluctant admission in Berlin that
the Allies are stiffening their opposition.
There has been some discussion by experts,
skilled in interpreting military movements,
that the Allies have encouraged the Germans
to advance-lured them on, in fact,-to get
them in a battle position offering elements of
advantage for themselves. There may be only
a sincere hope back of this view. Those hold
ing it nay want it to turn out that way and
have convinced themselves that because they
SO see it, it must be true. Whether it is the
Allied strategy or only the dream child of the
commentators, it is a fact that the Allied
command, as 1t drives nearer to contact with
the enemy, becomes less and less willing to
reveal what il taking place. This silence is
more impressive than the Berlin boastings.

GULFPORT, A CASE IN POINT

TN the discussion of public facilities Tor the
L port of Wilmington there is a constantly
recurring doubt in some groups that they couiu
pay their way, to say nothing OIL aoli's u
retire the ORIGINAL indebtedness incurred IN
their creation.
If results Elsewhere are a fair index to what
might be expected here, were a similar project
undertaken, this question is disposed Oh qulcA,
". Public facilities at other ports nave palo
their way, are paying their debts, and plllns
I'D reserves for emergencies and TOR eXpan-
sion.
This is the state of affairs at Gulfport, Mis-
sissippi. which lacks Wilmington's natural
ADVANTAGES in location and potential tonnage,
but has built itself into a port commanding
the respect of all other gulf ports. Gulfport IS
on the open sound, exposed to storms, and
lies approximately IS miles from Mobile on the
one hand and 100 miles from New Orleans on
the other-two established ports with trade
ramifications in all parts of the world. The
element of competition alone would have dis
couraged the creation of port facilities, had
it not been that the business leadership Of
lllC w. ga" tA oi1A 'tS
quick to seize it. So successful has the ven
ture proved, that the port authority is doubling
the terminals. The decision to expand rests
on the firm foundation of $144,920 On hand,
representing an excess of revenues over dis
bursements.
Gulfport engineers, announcing new ware
houses which will afford 4 $1,000 square feet of
floor space, say that the ports bonded indebt-
edness, plus interest. has been promptly met
and that payments due next fall are already
in hand. The new terminal project, the engi-
neers say, has approximately doubled the ton
mage. The port has also been able to create
a sinking fund from which all requirements
of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation
have been met.
There is much more to the story of Gulf
venture, but this shows its financial
stability. 1t further shows that by setting up
an objective and going after it aggressively,
the port has put itself on a solid foundation.
There appears no reason why Wilmington
might not do as we'll, and without doing the
private facilities already functioning at its
port an injury. The thought behind the Will
proposal for public terminals is that
they shall provide Accommodations for cargoes
now going to nearby competing ports, either
or Norfolk. On this basis, public
terminals, in the long run, should be a benefit
to private terminals.

STOP LETTERING STREETS

Great strides have been made in city beau
LITIGATION in Wilmington, but there is still
much to be done before we will be entitled to
sit back and take our ease in contemplation of
a completed job.
For example, there is the matter of keep
ing streets and sidewalks free of paper nap
kins and cups in the vicinity of curb-service
stores and stands, especially out Market
street way. Late Sunday afternoon, this
street, in some stretches, resembled an un-
kempt dump more than the magnificent home
place it really is, under the litter.
There is a prevailing custom among curb
service patrons especially the younger gener-
alton of patrons, Of throwing napkins and
cups out the windows of autos for any vagrant
breeze to pick up, shuttle about and discard
for all eyes to behold. 1t is not the precon.
certed campaign to d~isfigure the street, but
the effect is the same. The idea is to enjoy
a cold drink, a sandwich, and hurry on t.
other engagements. The debris. naturally will
the viewpoint what it is, goes in the street
Thoughtlessness is to blame.
What's to be done about it? Nothing, unless
motorists who take advantage of the oppor
tunity to have drinks and eats served at thu
curb take time out to realize that they have
a share in city cleanliness as we'll as the ad
ministration at the city hall, and stop scat
tering paper in one form or another alonl
the way.
Clean streets are a definite asset. They are
not only pleasing to look upon, but create
favorable impression on the strangers. Ant
curb service is an asset, too. If it is to b.
preserved it must not be a source Of un
sightliness. Durham stopped it because o
the dirt it gave rise to-. 1t will be well TO
Wilmington's patrons to take heed lest the,
be deprived of their favorite refreshmen

Four Suspects Jailed

BIG SEASON AHEAD

The estimate of COLEMAN w. ROBERTS, chair
man Of the state park commission, that 2OO,-
900 tourists will visit North Cardinals chief
parks this summer appears conservative. A
half million probably would be nearer right.
This is travel-at-home year, as far as sum-
mer vacationists are concerned. Some, of
course, will go to Canada, and others to Mexi-
co, but for the most part Americans with a
few dollars for tripping are going to spend

rapid development is taking place
while growth is retarded. On the
other hand, growth may proceed
with very little if any develop

There are certain essentials fol
growth whatever the heredity. Over
these we have attained consider
able control. 1t becomes Sur re-
sponsibility to supply these essen

his potentialities.
The first essential is nutrition.
Normal growth cannot take place
without a supply Of nutritious food.
The food must be adequate in
quantity and in quality and must
contain necessary minerals and es-
sential vitamins. Food has to sup
ply energy to the body, provide
for growth and repair, and keep
up the normal functions of the
body. The deficiency diseases such
as ricketts, and scurvy may serious
ly upset normal growth.
Even with an adequate food sup

Editorial Comments

SEND IT'S FRIENDS

~N
The compromise between the two factions
OF the Democratic party in North Carolina
each of which supported a candidate who is
not now an admitted candidate for the Presi.
dental nomination, brings the situation back
to the essential: Send a delegation to Chicago
which is proud of the record of Democratic
administration in Washington and will do
everything possible to continue Democratic
administration and advance the policies of the
New Deal.
It is perfectly obvious that the President
can have denomination at Chicago if he wishes
it but it is the measure of his greatness that
his policies are more important than the man.
What the President must wish and what the
millions who follow him wish also is an
American advance in terms of the great pro.
gram he has so magnificently begun. How
that can best be done is a decision in the
making of which the President will plav the
dominant part. In a sense never surpassed in
history he is at the end of his second term the
leader of his party. Those senators and others
who have contested his leadership were never
more impotent than now.
Every day it is more APPARENT that hone
of Democratic success in November must
rest upon the record of Roosevelt and the nro-
gram of the New Deal. North Carolina can
serve both the country and the nartv hest hv
sending a delegation to Chicago COMPOSED of
men who are the enthusiastic friends of tb,t
Roosevelt record. Only such men can nren.re
for victory. A fight based on the record can
only be successfully made by mon u,bo in
their hearts as well as in their noo,th. hnI;ona 49,

But whether Mr.. ROBERTS guess is better
than ours is not so important as that new
thousands of visitors are to be among us in
a short time. We say "us' for the very good
reason that Wrightsville and Carolina Beach
will get their full quota of visitors, as we'll the
national and state parks upstate.
Wilmington and it's peach resorts will have
the best opportunity to entertain vacationists
in a decade. 1t will be well to function so eff
~ficiently as host that every visitor will not
only return another year but spread the word
that when vacation good times are considered
the best place to find them is right here.

number, from old Mexico. Signed

He turned it over to a Spanish in.
