EXCHANGE CLUB
HEARS BLANT0N

The Rev. Sankey Lee Blanton,
pastor Of the First Baptist church.
addressed members Of the Ex-
Exchange club yesterday on the art
of "speechmaking' as exemplified
by many of the worlds great per-
sonalities.
He discussed the characteristics
Of speech and briefly described how
he has seen and heard it used by
by Hoey, Wilson, Lloyd George,
Clemenceau, Hitler, Churchill and
Roosevelt.
Explaining the eloquence and
method of influencing their audi
tors as employed by these char
acters Mr.. Blanton pointed out
how through speech, history and
the course of events of our times
are fashioned.
There are three important phases
in speechmaking Mr.. Blanton emu
merated; first, know what you are
going to say; say it clearly, simply
and without apology, and when you
have said it stop.
Mr.. Blanton was presented by
Tyson Pope, and prefacing his
talk, the minister said he had just
returned from one Of the big con-
ventions of North Carolina where as
he said its members number in
this state a million and is second
only to the Democratic party in
size.

COOLEY ADDRESSES
NATIONAL GRANGE

WINSTON-SALEM. Nov. IT, Up
The distance between the pro.
Queer and the consumer must be
shortened and we must have i'm
proved marketing methods and a
streamlined distribution system,
Rep. Harold D. Cooley O-NC) told
the National Grange here today.
The night session was devoted
to the exemplification Of the sew
enth degree with the largest num-
Der of initiates on hand in the
history of the Grange.
Cooley declared agriculture ''the
mother of all arts and the nurse
maid of all industry and said that
the nations richest resource lay
in the fertile topsoil of American
farmland.
''No farm program would be
complete if it did not provide for
conservation Of the fertile top
soil of the farm lands of America
and for the preservation of our
great forestry resources" Cooley
pointed out.
THE farmers OF American have
demonstrated that production is no
longer a problem. handicapped
/. they have filed the bread
basket of democracy.
The congressman then declared
himself for a program that would
promote the more secure occupan-
cy of farms and farm homes and
continue the program of rural
slum clearance and better land
utilization
Hundreds of thousands Of farm
families, the speaker asserted,
have not been able to attain even
semblance of farm ownership.
This situation presents a social
and an economic problem OF the
first magnitude. We can with long
term loans, with low interest rates,
do much to check the trend to-
ward tenancy and turn the tide
toward ownership.
