Tourist Trade

Bill Sharpe, chief of the North Carolina Dl-
vision of Advertis ng, has prepared report
for the Board of Conservation and Develop
ment showing that the states resort facilities
can be filled, if not actually overcrowded, IN
the postwar era by hordes of vacation: SITS and
sportsmen it the promotion effort is adequate.
He also notes that many inquiries are re-
ceived by his office from prospective settlers,
especially among soldiers who have married
North Carolina girls, concerning business op-
portunties, farms and jobs. HIS office replies
on an average to seventy-five queries day
single days mail.
Wimington's opportunity to share in the
prospective resort business depends Upon the
will of its people to convert nearby beaches
into the best vacation spots on the Atlantic
seaboard. 1t II be done, but not without
! hard work and the expenditure Of much
money.
The penalty Tor failure to draw postwar
throngs to Wrightsville Beach and Caroline
Beach will be the diversion of vacationists
offering better facilities but to North Caro-.
lina's mountain resorts which have been wide
ly exploited for many years and are known
far and wide for their sports and recreational
resources.
The mountain resorts are entitled to their
full percentage of patronage. Wilmington
should see that they do not absorb it all.

Let The People Say

Two European nations are in political tur
MOL at time when harmony is more to be
desired than great riches. Spain and Belgium
cannot hope to take their proper place in
the community of nations Until they solve
their political problems and settle down to
concerted and intensive effort to win their
way back to financial and commercial indie
pendence under stable governments.
The chief obstacle in each is interference
in the one case by dictator and in the
other by king released from captivity with
the fall of Germany In neither case is the
chief disturber willing to let the people de-
eide for themselves the government they will
live under
Franco, dictator of Spain, declares the mon
archy is the only way out for that nation.
Leopold, king of Belgium until he surrendered
to the Germans and paved the way for
Frances fall, makes some pretense of want
ing the Belgian people to settle their govern
mental troubles themselves. But we cannot
believe him sincere. 1t will be remembered
that Leopold emphatically and repeatedly de-
clared he would return to Brussels ana re-
sumo the throne without regard to the dis
turbance he would precipitate. Any change In
his position, we may we'll believe, is supre-
fetal only, and not because he has altered
his conviction that he is entitled to rule. Even
after the Belgian Chamber of Deputies voted
nnety-eight to six to continue the regency
under Prince Charles, Leopold attacked what
he termed lack of coordination between
Parliament and the nation"
| The need in both Belgium and Spain is ar
election by popular vote If the Spaniards
want to return to a monarchy they should have

and be permitted to vote without intimida
ton. If they want republic they should nave

Truman's Big Chance

Because President Truman is the only chief
Churchill and Permier Stain have done him
the honor to elect him permanent chairman
of the Potsdam deliberations. Ordinarily
chairman is at a decided disadvantage. He
uses the gavel, decides parliamentary disputes
and votes only in case of a tie. He makes an
Introductory speech and calls on minister to
pronounce the benediction. The rest Of h e
time he sits back in his comfortable chair,
looks wise land often bored) and counts the
minutes until adjournment.
We believe, however, that Mr.. Truman will
not consent to be chairman under ordinary
conditions, but will have his say as often as
the others, and say it as well as they He has
two vital detectives and his years in the Unit
ed States Senate have given him the training
necessary for getting and holding the ear of
his associates. He wants above all to end the
war in the Pacific as speedily as possible and

until he gets definite answers from Stain and

In a broad way, President Truman has a
great advantage over the two He has gone Ia

American people who have been amazed and

CIANO'S DIARY
July 2O-Sept. rs 1912.

Five weeks after the first BIT
raids on German-held Europe, the
Nazis appealed to the Vatican to
intervene and halt the bombing of
''open cities" it is disclosed in the
diary of Count Ciano, Mussolini' S
son-in-laW
The information was included in
a report by 1taly's ambassador to
the Vatican on the visit of Myron
Taylor, President Roosevelt's spe-
cial emissary to the Holy See.
Ciano wryly recalled that the word
"coventrize" had been coined in
Berlin for Germany's destructive
raids on British cities.
Ciano's wife, Edda, spent bit
ter afternoon with her husband,
accusing him of being anti-Ger-
man. II Duce, himself, worried
about external and internal prob
lens alike, suffered a recurrence
of stomach trouble that alarmed
his family and friends.
His mistress was trying to have
her marriage annulled.
