RALEIGH, June Is - "Yes We
Have No Oranges" could have been
the theme song of Gates county
last Saturday, according to Hath
away Cross, secretary to Governor
Clyde R. Hoey.
Cross went down to his home
county for the week end, started
out to get some oranges for a very
ill and aged friend who can take
little nourishment except oranges
and finally had to 60 over into
neighboring Pasquotank to Eliza
beth City, to get the fruit.
The Perquimans Gates Benton
family made its record 500 in
successful pursuit of North Caro-
lima House seats, when John T.
Benton, incumbent from Perqui-
mans, defeated j. S. McNider by
SO votes in a runoff primary. In
the first balloting he had trailed
McNider by a slim margin. In
Gates, a brother failed to unseat

1t hasn't been used in any crimi-

to Powell it will be called into
play at the next real opportunity;
The SBI expert says the evidence
of a 'psychograph" should not,
in his opinion, ever be accepted

Behind The Scenes In
Washington!

WASHINGTON THE double
barreled investigation which as.
sistant Attorney General Arnold
and Mayor La Guardia have an
nounced in connection with New
York City's milk costs is just a
sample of the sort of action which
Arnold would like to apply to food
distribution costs all over the Unit.
ed States.
What's holding him back is lack
of money. Congress upped the anti
trust divisions appropriation for
the coming year very slightly, and
there just aren't funds in sight to
do the job Arnold would like to do.
Mayor La Guardia's cooperation
solved that problem as far as the
New York milk study is concerned.
Since the city will provide most
Of the staff to do the leg-work and
the digging, the job won't be much
Of a drain on the anti = trust
divisions purse.
For the national picture, about
the only chance is to have Presi-
dent Roosevelt allocate the money
from the fund he will have at his
disposal for national defense pur.
poses That might happen. The
argument would be that part of
the defense program ought to be
a drive to keep living costs from
going up.
STATE BARRIERS, RACKETS
AFFECT FOOD Prices
A preliminary report on the food
distribution cost picture has al
ready been drawn up in Arnold's
office and is nov under discussion.
In various line of staple foodstuffs,
it is held, there exist combinations
which in effect control the market.
it is not suggested that all of these
combinations result in unduly high
prices; what has been urged on
Arnold is that the bulk of them at
least need investigation, so that If
a war boom comes the government
will be prepared to step in and
prevent a runaway rise in living
costs.
One Of the angles which inter-
ests Arnold most is the matter of
bottlenecks in transportation and
labor. Restrictions which farm pro-
ducts may meet on their way to
market vary all the way from
state trade barriers to outright
r~acketeering in some city produce
markets.
MAIL NOW CALLS
FOR ALLIED HELP
Interesting signs of the times
Last fall when the neutrality law
was being debated. isolationist
senators and representatives got
an enormous flood of keep-out.
of war mail from back home. One
of the most outspoken Of these
senators is getting mail in almost
equal quantities these days-but
most of it is made up of pleas
that help be given the allies.
Another indication of the chang
ed atmosphere in the capital is
provided by the platform mapped
out by the leading pacifist groups
for their June 7 conference here.
This platform demands that Con.
gress stay in session, that the
nation take no further steps to-
ward the war, and that national
defense be built up nationally,
1ot historically. Which is a
