WE ARE urgently appealing to you per-
w sonally to help save some 157 lives Of
innocent victims of aggression. Germany
attempted to mobilize Lithuanians, Lat
vians and Estonians and all attempts
failed.
However, numbers Of men were forci-
bly, seized in manhunts, were dressed in
German uniforms and sent to the eastern
front in violation of international law con-
cerning the conduct of a military occu-
pying power.
United States did not and does not
recognize the Russian attempt to incor-
porate Baltic states in violation of the
Atlantic Charter subscribed to by Russia
in the declaration of the United Nations
Jan l. 1912
Following German surrender, some 151
Baltic men forcibly indicted in German
armed forces fled to Sweden to seek haven
as political refugees as citizens of neu-
trail Baltic states seeking haven in neutral
Sweden, inasmuch as the Russians invar-
iably execute all Baltic prisoners as
traitors.
A RADIOGRAM from Stockholm 10 me
~ dispatched Nov. Is and received on
nineteenth informs that Graftstroem,
chief political division. Swedish foreign
office, officially informed Lithuanian refu-
gee delegation that nine Lithuanlans, ip-
cluding one major, one captain, one doctor,
two first lieutenants and two noncoms
would be delivered to Russian within the
next few days.
Arguments that they are political
refugees facing certain death and that
they were forclbly seized by Germans vio-
lating international law were answered as
invalid and the faet-that they had taken
part of German side is decisive.
Sweden reputedly approached London
to accept these men to the British zone
and Swedes say that London refused.
United Press reported from Stockholm
Nov te that approximately 10 Baltic
refugees who served in the German army
and escaped to Sweden would be surren-
dered in a Swedish bow TO Russian demand
and that a ship is on way to pick them up
and transfer is expected within the next
10 days.

i prices is RAPIDLY working out as a
program of compulsory bankruptcy
for employers and of consequent
idleHess fer ffef employees,
On the one hand, the admlnistra-
tion is promoting wage increases IN
virtually every line of business.
On the other hand, the govern
ment is opposed, as matter Of
policy, to compensatlng price in
creaseS.
Secretary of Commerce Wallace
and others defend this attitude on
the alleged grounds that profits are
or will be so large that wage rates
can be raised as much as 80 per cent
without changing prices upward.
That may be true with respect to
some individual concerns, but 1t is
undoubtedly not true as regards IN
dustry as a whole
The explanation IS, of course, that
Secretary WallaCe's statistics are
not accurate.
The Western Union Telegraph
Co. provides current example Of
the prevailing facts.
THE War Labor Board has ordered
Il wage increases which would not
only deprive the company OF any
profit at all but would also deprive
the federal government itself of sub
stantial tax revenues from that
source.
A statement by the company
says:
"The company's income BE-
FORE FEDtRAL INCOME TAXES
in 1914 was SI3,567 1872.
"The tota! addition to the pay
roll resulting from the increases =.
would amount to at least $685.
900, and thus IT WOULD ELlMi-
NATE the company's entire earnings
BEFORE TAXES.
"On this basis, THE COMPANY
WOULD SHORTLY CEASE TO
EXIST AS A PRIVATE ENTER
PRISE"
Western Union has expressed a
willingness to grant "a reasonable
LOuge increase.
Appealing to the War Labor
Board for rehearing of the pending
issue, it contends that its problem
now is one of ABILITY TO STAY
IN BUSINESS"
MOTHER large employer, the
"A United States Steel Corp, has
similar difficulty.
A demand for higher wages has
been made on behalf of its thousands
of employees.
The prices of its products are

could be used by the Japanese
in a future war against this
country as a base for giant

cling thousands Of miles.
From Hokkaido thousands of
balloons carrying atomic bombs
could be sent TO the North
American continent.
Already an air trail has been
twice covered from Hokkaido
to Washington, d. c., a distance
of 6,544 miles.
WE SHOULD mind the warm
w ing Of Gen. Giles that from
HokkaIdo the Japanese would
have bombed the Pacific North

the end of this year had the
war not ended suddenly.

The two sensational flights
from Hokkaido 10 Chicago and

can reach the United States
with great speed.

a long and active career in public life in
North Carolina, which continued until
1895. During this span of nearly fifty
years, there was perhaps no man in this
state who welded greater influence and
none to whom it befell the lot to continue
in public service for such long period of
time
On that first trip to Raleigh, Governor"
Doughton, as he became known to thou
sands after he served as Lieutenant Gov
ernor, travelled part of the way on horse
back. Later, he was to play the leading
part in the expansion and building of North
Cardinals highways.
R. A. DOughtOn was tall man IN that
he lowered above many. He was sturdy
oak, whose influence spread throughout
his life, much longer one than that of most
men. Early in his public career he became
deeply interested in the education of the
common man and labored with the late
Charles Duncan McIver and other leaders
in the development of the States public
school system. He was always friend OF
all educational institutions and many of
them owe much to him.
He was man of many talents; for his
accomplishments and influence were not
confined to public life. He was successful
as a lawyer, banker, and farmer. He
was truly a great man and with all of his
success he remained simple, modest and
sincere. His friends were among all walks
of life; for he was a man who could walk
with kings and never lose the common
touch.
He was shining example of our demo-
cratic way of life; for from modest be-
ginning he climbed to broad sphere of
influence. He is definite and important
part of North Carolina history and in the
years that are to come he will long be re-
membered, this Spartan of the mountains
of Allegheny, who forever put service
above self.

scheme, but Governor Rufe'
never publicly expressed himself
either for or against it.
Although he devoted more thar
two score years to office holding
Mr.. Doughton was largely inter
ested in farming and stock raising
He also held important business
connections, was active and sue
cessful in practice of law, and
was an outstanding civic leader
in his home community. He was
a member of the Methodist
Church.
After the creation of the State
Highway Commission and before
his appointment as chairman, he
represented the Seventh District
and was instrumental in having
good roads brought to this pre-
viously isolated region of the
State, sometimes referred to as
"the lost province.
Mr.. Doughton was born in Ashe
(now Allegheny County, Janu-
airy 10, 1856, the son of j. Horton
and Rebecca Jones Doughton. He
was educated in the primary
schools of his native county, the
independence, Va, high school,
and the University of North Car
DINA. After receiving his degree
in law, he returned to Sparta and
began practice in the Fall of 1882
He has maintained his law Of
flee there since that time. His
office was on the courthouse
lawn.
Mr.. Doughlon was married on
January 3, 1888, to Sue B. Parks
who survives him with one son
j. Kemp Doughton, of Baltimore;
one daughter, Mrs. S. ]. Thomas
of Sparta; two brothers, Congress
man Doughton, of Laurel Springs
and Washington, D. c., and Frank
Doughton, of Laurel Springs; anc
three sisters, Mrs. T. ]. Carson
of Sparta, Mrs. F. Miller, of Lau'
rel Springs, and Mrs. Arthur Fen
der of Washington, D. c.

Rufus A. Doughton

One of North Cardinals most disting-

passed away and with his going every citi-
zen of this State should pause to pay tribute
to the man who did so much for its progress
and development during the past half of
a century His deeds are so far reaching
that their influence will extend on and on
as long as time shall reach.
It has we'll been said that every school
and college in this state and every mile of
our magnificent highway system stand as
a monument to R. A. Doughton. Going
