FLOODS DO DAMAGE
TO 5000 FAMILIES

Raleigh, Sept 13-(AP)-GOver-
nor Clyde R. Hoey said today he was
studying report of special inves-
tigating committee which indicates
that 5000 families will be in need
of relief throughout the Winter as
result of floods in the State this Sum-
mer.
The committee report indicated
that approximately that number of
families have had lands and crops
washed away and will he in critical
need of food, clothing, livestock feed,
and seed for Spring crops, the Gov
ernor said.
The Red Cross and Surplus Com
modities Corporation are providing
food and some other provisions but
no agency at present is helping pro-
vide feed for livestock or seed FOR
Spring crops, he said.
The Governor emphasized, how
ever, that activities Of the Red Cross
and sec are only temporary and
may not continue throughout the
Winter.
The investigating committee re-
ported 4 serious problem mas arisen
from artificial dams created by de-
bris carried along by the flood
waters. The distractions are inter-
fering with the normal flow Of the
rivers and would greatly increase the
danger in event of more floods, j,
was reported.
Hoey said the Highway Commits
sion is removing debris from bridges
and roads hut that a special project
is being sought to remove the OBJ
structions from rivers. Special ma
chinery will have to be employed,
he said.
Hoey i studying several possible
relief projects but has not completed
plans for them yet. He also has asked
local representatives to draft requests
for special reclamation projects.

Raleigh. Sept. l9.-There are now
obvious signs in this neck Of the
North Carolina woods that football
annually Il veritable fall frenzy foi
most Tar Heels, is about to horn
in on the publicity being given the
war and politics.
1t would be oVerStatement to say
that there is as much interest in evil
dence as uSual-(there iSnD: but II
would be Just as much underState-
ment to say that there is very little

your reporter wins no prize for ORR
ginal thought in predicting that the
Bic Five race this fall will be as
exciting q chase as in many years
There seems practically unanimous
agreement that Davidson and RAJ
leigh'S own State College can be eli
minated from championship conSld-
GRAFTON right off the bat-though the
Wildcats will be as scrappy as even

willingness to learn will take them
Four of the five see action this
weekend, only Dukes Blue Devils
putting off their opening sklrmlsh
until September % when Wade's men
play host to a Flying Squadron OF
V. NJ. I. Keydets who boast four fine
backfield stars behind line which
probably can't hold off the big boys
in blue very long.
States chances of beating William
and Mary are slim, though Carl
Voyle's Virginia team may prove
vastly overrated. Wake Forest Is
picked over William Jewell prln-
cipally because the DeacS are thought
to be good and nobody knows any
thing about the Missourians. APP
palachian could be tough for Caro-
lima. but probably will not spring an
astounding upset by winning. David
son rates an edge over Rollins
though Jack McDoWelfs gang from
'Gatorland are better than the aver
age ''tuneup' opponent.

Raleigh, Sept. l9.-Mrs. Sadie l..
Mccain, Vice-chaiiman OF the state
Democratic committee, has called up
on women OF the party for an ag-
gresSiVc participation i'll the current
political campaign.
Let's show the Republicans that
we Democrats mean business she
said in closing q letter To all county
icc-cnaimen over the state.
She called attention to two out
standing occasions upon which the
feminine hosts Of Democracy are eX-
pected to rally in the near future,
ana set at least 81 per precinct as
goal for Il campaign fund drive by
the Women's organization.
This latter phase may not sound
so important, but there are no less
than 1913 precincts in North Caro-
lima, and SO at one dollar each this
fund would amount to Sl,9l3, not
to be snceZed at when considered in
the aggregate.
Mrs. Mccain was here at Demo-
cratic headquarters for only one day
this week, but expects to be a re.
gular in the tenth floor quarters OF
the party from and after next week,
she IS planning program which will
make her something OF cOmmutel
for the next month and hall.
Living in SanatOrium, about seven
miles from Aberdeen, she has the
very important business OF sending
three children to graded school to
look out for as we'll as that OF being
vice chairman Of the state committee.
Her present intention is to do her
travelling to and from her home by
rail. (Maybe that item should be
marked "advt.O

LES VERRIERES, Switzerland Oct. 22.-Pierre Laval, right hand man to Marshal Petain in the Vichy Government of unoccupied France, is negotiating with Ger many for a possible French declar- ation Of war on Great Britain in return for a definite easy peace between France and the Axis.
 Informed travellers revealed the Laval scheme calls for such d declaration with a promise that France will lose only Alsace Lor- raine, Nice, Tunisia and Djibuti.
 Strength was lent to these re- ports by the tenor of Winston Churchills sudden appeal to the French people with reiteration Of promises to let France share fully in a British victory.

CHICAGO. H., Oct. 22.-At Presi- dent Roosevelt's request, Ambassador William Bullitt today revealed the unpublished correspondence which he said shows the United States did not promise to go to war to aid England and France last April.
 The unpublished correspondence shows that former French Premier Daladier sent letter to President Roosevelt saying: Ambassador Bull lit always said to me that in case of European conflict, France would have to make her own decision, knowing full well that the United States would not enter the war"
 Ambassador Buliitt said the new triple alliance. Germany, Italy and Japan, is a clear threat to the Unit ed States which as nation should at once arm for war so no nation dare make an attack.

British WdrpIdnes Sci Fires in German ShipbuiId-
 ing Section
SHIPS LIFTED OUT OF
 WAFER BY EXPLOSIONS
Biq Scale Warfare Also to Be Wdged in Medifer-
 rdnedn and Egypt
(By Associated Press)

British Royal Air Force warplanes struck two crippling blows to Ger man shipping, the London Air Min istry reports, dumping tons of high explosive bombs and at least 1000 fire bombs on Hamburg dockyards where German warships are under construction, and blasting Nazi convoy in the English Channel.
 The Air Ministry said the bombs, exploding around the convoy. all most lifted some of the ships out of the water, while in an hour-long assault on Hamburg, numerous fires were started in the shipyards sur rounding the docks.
 Chain of Fires
 The Ministry said "a chain of fires became engulfed in one great fam ing mass"
 Two more British spokesmen, meanwhile, amplified Churchill's as- lsertion that the British will launch an offensive to gain control of the air by 1941.
 Lord Croft, War Under-secretary, declared: The war can never be won without military decision in the East or West or on both fronts. That's why we are building up great army"
 Increased Air Power Another authorized spokesman in London forecast the increasing use of air power in British land opera tions, disclosing that squadrons of bombers and quite possibly fighters as wellv will be placed under the army command when needed in any particular operation.
 This announcement was evidently in reference to the heralded big scale warfare in the Mediterranean-Egyp- tian theatre.
 Luring France
 A Rome-Berlin Axis attempt to lure France into declaring war on her former ally, Britain, was widely reported, with easy peace terms the bait dangled before the Vichy gov- ernment. However Britain has long since discounted the potentialities of French aid to Germany and Italy, especially at sea, as much of the French Navy, second most powerful in Europe before the war. has been effectively crippled in naval actions at Gran in Algiefs, and Dakar, or bottled up in Alexandria or harbored in English ports.
