Is Byrnes' Star Rising?

It was James F. Byrnes who did the under
cover work four years ago for the nomination
of Henry Wallace for vice president. Today
he seems to be the strongest contestant
against Mr. Wallace, with Senator Barley in
third place.
Looming as an obstacle to the nomination
of either Mr. Byrnes or Mr.. Barley or any,
one else is President Roosevelt's letter to
the conventions permanent chairman, Sen
Samuel Jackson of Indiana in which the Chief
Executive voices his view of Mr. Wallace.
The text of the letter is zealously guarded
but it is supposed to say, among other things,
that if he were a delegate he would cast his
vote for Wallace
If the convention bows to the will of its
presidential selection as it did four years
ago, Wallace will go in with flying colors
But if the spirit of independence which is
observable in some convention quarters is as
militant as it is represented to be, he will
not stand more than ghost of a chance
AS the convention program in all other mat
tiers is cut and dried, interest centers in the
race for the vice presidential nomination.
There is little reason ID doubt that if the
delegates follow the wish of the rank and
file of the Democratic party, Mr.. Wallace
will be defeated.

NaZi Soldier To His Wife

The question is often asked in this country:
What are the German soldiers thinking about
the war; especially now that Hitler's promise
to give them the world is not to be fulfilled?'
The answer is that probably some of them
are as intolerant and bombastc as the Fueh-
rer would have them, but others seeing the
uselessness of continuing the slaughter are
asking themselves what it's all about
Here is letter of one of these, written to
his young wife, which was in his pack when
an American unit found him in a hedgerow
where he had met his death. 1t is addressed
to my beloved Gundi,'' and after expressing
overpowering loneliness paints such picture

Bruce Barclay Cameron

The shock of Mayor Bruce Barclay Cam
eron's death is doubly heavy because it had
seemed for some time that he would rally
and return to take his accustomed place in
his wide circle of friends if not in business
and public affairs None who knew him
but feels his loss.
Although Mr. Cameron had been in failing
health for some time, he is to be counted
war casualty in that had he taken his physi-
clans advice and stopped his many activi-
ties for year or more he probably would
have lived out the normal span. Instead,
with the devotion that had characterized
his life since boyhood, he increased his SER
vices where his conscience and his response
bility told him they were needed. With his
every thought, outside his family, centered
upon Wilmington we'll being and its part in
the war program, there was no place in his
mind for selfish consideration of his own
physical deficiencies.
Now, all that is mortal of the man who
coming home to receive the only tribute
his city ana townspeople can give him.
Bruce Cameron's career offers an outstand-
ing example to the ever-groWing list of
Americans who have risen to prominence
in their city, state OR nation by their own
effort and industry At the height of his
career no Wilmingtonan exercised so great
an influence upon the community, it's de-
velopment and prospective improvement; no
man had more or greater affiliations in bust
ness in civic affairs, and municipal bet
terment; no man ever crusaded more valiant
ly for what he felt was right. In the brief
time he served as Mayor, the Council put
through many measures the benefits Of which
will continue to be felt for generations and
laid the foundation for undertakings, especially
in the period Immediately following the war,
that will raise the city to a position of
prominence in the state.
AS private citizen his business and other
affiliations were many. He was president
of the Cape Fear Terminal company. presi-
dent of the Atlantic Navigation company
chairman of the Morris Plan Bank direc-
torate, member of the board of governors
of the Cape Fear Club, director of the Caro-
lima Building and Loan Association and the
North Carolina Shipbuilding Company, one
of the owners of the Macmillan Buick Com
pany, operator of Macmillan and Cameron
wholesale and retail auto parts, accessories
and gasoline company, member of the First
Baptist church, past president of the XII
wants Club, member of Company B, old Boys
Brigade, and of St. Johns Masonic lodge
and of Sudan Temple
To Mrs. Cameron, the five children who
survive him, and to the mother who bore
him, Wilmington offers deepest sympathy

To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Regarding your editorial that the
editors of North Carolina are not
IN the main overjoyed with the
prospect of Roosevelt fourth
term, how do the people feel?
Surely they have not forgotten 50
soon the benefits which this ana
every other STATE has derived thru
mis- administration.
Shall we look back? Mr.. Hoover
was hailed as the grand leader
who would keep our country In
prosperity. What eventuated? We
had four miserable years Of Hoo
terism. That this is not biased
statement, ample proof can uphold
it. Even had his administration
been fairly successful the second
term tradition would have been
strong enough IN itself to have re-
elected him.
In the deepest depression Frank
lin D. Roosevelt was brought forth
with the same fanfare of Moses.
Only his administration had so
benefited the people that he was
rushed thru to second term in
a glorious landslide. Then came
the marvel. That strong boogie
third term, which, others had tried
TO shatter, was snapped like a dead
tWig by the popularity of Rocse-
velt's capabilities. And further
mark this well. Not alone did he

eetic and able leadership of Wen
die Willkie, bu. then, axis parti-
zans in their hatred were throw
ing all the weight of their voting
power against MIR. Roosevelt.
If he has Unanswered himself
into being his own successor, it is
further proof that in the weighing
he has been found fit. His entire
career has been a diplomatic or
political one. He is we'll versed in
navy and army affairs: as Assis-
tant Secretary of the former; as
an Inspector of the army in the
World War of 1918 and in charge
OF demobllizing the army in 1919.
There isn't one who can conseien-
tlously besn.ircn his career of up
right, staunch diplomacy and cap

times why shouldn't the vast ma.
scrlty OF American voters feel him
worthy of a fourth term?

covers the period from June 4,
