Lennon Urges Caution

with having secured the inclusion
OF both areas in the same bill, as
we'll as with the guarantee
clause, which requires representa-
ton by two suburban appointees
for two years on the City Council
and the public endorsement by
four out of five Council members
Of an announcement that the City
was ready to render fire, police
and other services to the annexed
areas.
Despite the strategy urged by
Mr.. Lennon, residents of Brook
wood, Oleander and the other cas-
tern suburbs chose a committee to
join efforts with the group picked
Wednesday night at Sunset Park to
demonstrate with Rep. LeGrand by
telegraph. A distinct likelihood that
"a delegation would go to Raleigh
was evidenced by remarks from
the 100-odd suburbanites present.
Mr.. Lennon was chosen chair
man after he had rendered the re-
port of the action committee and
received vote of thanks. Previous
head of the group was the late
F. A. Matthes, whose sudden death
in December Lennon said he
thought might have been caused
in part by work on the committee.
The only comment from the
membership Of longer than five
minutes duration was given by
W. K. Rhodes, Jr., who rose to
explain that he had not been author
of derogatory comments concern
ing the Wilmington police made at
a Sunset Park meeting Wednesday,
but that his statement at the same
gathering, that he did not consider
the City Councils promise worth a
snap, would be forthcoming again
whenever anyone suggested the
council promise to install sewerage
or water-system in 1915. He
simply did not believe that there
was manpower for any such job. he
said, however good the intentions
of the city government in promis-
ing it.
He suggested that city extension
would be a much more suitable
project for the postwar period.
when servicemen had come home.
To this Mr.. Lennon assented, say
ing IF it's good now, it will be
good five years from now

Jury Fails To Agree

months in advance whether or moi
they'll have the manpower to oper
ate, or told on opening day.
Frick and Griffith apparently
were unofficial spokesman for the
game, but if choice had been
made by the Club owners they
couldn't have picked two better
men. Frick is suave, alert and
wise. Griffith is practically as
much a fixture in Washington as
the Washington monument, and is
so highly esteemed in official cir.
cles he undoubtedly has entree
where other baseball men fear to
tread. In his noiseless, unassuming
way he probably has done as much
or more to put the game in a
favorable light with h e powers
that be than anyone else.
Well never forget the first time
we saw the old fox. He had come
to New York for some meeting,
and walked into the hotel head
quarters looking anything but the
shrewd old baseball man he is.
In fact, his ruddy complexion,
white hair and bewildered express
sion, combined with the large trav-
cling bag he was toting, offered
the picture Of a retired farmer
ripe to be taken by the city slick
erS.
Anyway, although both are with
holding official statements, Frick
and Griffith have unofficially air
ed slightly divergent ideas as to
what they learned in Washington.
Griffith seems a little on the op-
timistic side; Prick, if anything,
slightly pessimistic, although. he
said:
81 won't say that the talks were
not optimistic, nor were they pes
simistic. >
What could be clearer than that?

Loop Contest

ROCKY MOUNT, Jan. 26.-NeW
Hanover High school lost their fifth
consecutive conference clash this
afternoon, when defeated by a high
ly favored Rocky Mount aggre-
CATION $500, but the Wildcats were
somewhat rejuvinated in the fact
that they held the Blackbirds to
their lowest score this season.
Figuring in game this afternoon
were two full teams of fighting
Blackbirds, while Wilmington
coaches were handicapped with
only three substitutes.
Proof of the dauntless, high-spirit-
ed Cats, was shown in the high
scoring Of Rocky Mount, dividing
honors between Allsbrook and
Thorne, with five each. High scorer
for Wilmington was Billy Mason,
with nine, followed by his brother,
Carl, with six.
The visiting basketeers led the
Blackbirds up to the haf-time, with
the score set at 81 at the end oil
the first quarter, and leading 14-e
at the half.

Democratic Sens. Claude Pep
per, Fla; James M. Mead, N. Y;
Theodore G. Bilbo, Miss; Warren
c.. Magnuson, Wash, and John H.
Overton, La, voted in favor OF
Wallace. Mcclellan swung over to
them on the futile motion to report
the nomination without recon-
mendation and thus remove the
stigma of an adverse" report.
Overton joined the antiWallace
forces in the vote on the George
bill.
Committee action came after
the Wallace cause had received
support from two separate quar-.
tiers.
Secretary of the Treasury Hen
ny Morgenthau, Jr, praised Wal
lace as yankee businessman
with horse sense enough to recog.
nize that we are living in a world
of change" and said his record in
handling loans is beyond re-
proach". Secretary of the Interior
Harold L. Ickes had praised the
Wallace nomination earlier as a
good appointment
And the United clearinghouse
Workers (CIO) sent its members
a letter urging sthem to call on
their congressman to support the
Wallace nomination and to oppose
the George bill.

THEY SAID LAST
. WEEK:
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
in his inaugural address:

1--WE Americans OF today, to-
gether with our Allies, are pass
fng through period of supreme
test. It is a test of our courage
of Our resolve-of our wisdom
OF our essential democracy. If
we meet that test-successfully
and honorably-we shall perform
a service of historic importancy,
OF historic Importance which men
and women and children will
honor throughout all time. AS I
stand here today, having taken the
solemn oath of Office in the pre-
sence of my fellow country1ne,i--
in the presence OF our Cod
know that it is Americas purpose
that we shall not fail. In the days
and the years that are to come we
shall work for a just and honor
able peace, a durable peace, as to-
day we work and fight for total
victory III war. We can and we
will achieve such a peace. We
shall strive for perfection. We
shall not achieve it Immediately
but we still shall strive. Our
constitution of 1887 was not q
perfect instrument: it is not per-
feet yet. But it provided a firm
base upon which all manner of
men. of all races and colors and
creeds, could build our solid
structure OF democracy. And so
today in this year of war, l945,
we have learned lessons-at a
fearful cost-and we shall profit
by them
