Gov. Hugh White And
Mr.. Sanders Invited
Summit Meet Tonight

Summit, Miss, Sept. 27-On
invi.stoin of Mayor ]. T. Hutchin-
SCI and the Board of Councilman,
Tcwr of Summit, Hon. Hugh l..
White of Columbia will appear at
the Summit High School auditorium
at seven o'clock the evening of Oct
ober 3, to explain the States Balan-
ce Agriculture with Industry pro-
gram and offer suggestions az to
suitable industries for the Town Of
Summit. Mr.. r. D. Sanders, leading
Mississippi industrialist, who owns
the Delta Chenille Co. here, has also
been invited to be present.
We must have more industries
here" said Mayor Hutchinson. I'VE
will be losing our lumber companies
in a couple of years and we'll need
a steady industry here if we expect
our town to continue growing.
'We're asking Mr.. Sanders to
come along" he continued, because
we feel that his industry has been a
redl asset to Summit, furnishing
employment for a large number OF
women. all of whom are high type.
Now maybe he can bring us an ind
ustry that will employ an equal
number of men. Anyway, we want
more industry in Summit, and this
is a step in that direction. I hope all
of our Summit citizens will be inter-
ested in the proposal and lend their
presence at the meeting on the night
Of October 3. Mr.. White, Jul former
Governor, is known to all OF us as
the father of this BAWI idea, and
we thought he might have some fine
suggestions for us. At any rate, he's
always worth hearing and I hope
we'll have a good crowd out to hear
him. And it goes without saying
that Mr.. Sanders will be worth
hearing 80. especially il he has
another industry up his sleeve that
he can bring to our community"

Mr.. Greer makes his home at Sal
lis and is the father of five children.
OF the five, only two are at home
now, Gwendolyn and Peggy. Mrs
Mrs. Montgomery resides in Jackson
and Mrs. Clearance Robinson, as we
all know, is here in Durant. His son,
Herman, is now attending State
College at Starkville.
Mr.. Greer came to the chenille
plant about 6 months after it opened
so he is what we term an "old tim
err" When asked how he likes his
work he said if he didn't like it he
wouldn't be here. He also added that
he liked his work here because the
people he worked with were such
a congenial bunch of workers.
Mr.. Greer is always around when
there is machine trouble and it's his
job to get it into operation again.
Thus you can easily see what an
important asset he is around our
Chenille Plant.

James Perrin acting manager for
his wife, Mrs. Annie Ward Perrin.
Mr.. Perrin is manager Of the
Delta chenille plant in Kosciusko.

The idea is for the various mill
heads to personally view the other
set-ups, e how the other fellow
operates his mill, to discuss, swap
and impart ideas for improvement
and more efficient functioning of the
organization as a whole.
Opening Of the new Sanders air
port at Kosciusko makes the meet
ing there quickly and readily Access
sible to the superintendent assemb-
ling there from all sections of the
state. Installation of this airport has
been a rugged undertaking. 1t took
several months to cut into the hills
and level the ground. The landing
field would now be a credit to any
city. AS at his other fields, Mr.. San
ders has extended an invitation to
all private plane owners to feel free

Lady Astor Peeved

Lady Astor, once Miss Langhorn of
Virginia, for many years a member of
the House of Commons, later a leader
in the Cliveden set, and always voluble,
aimed a vocal blow at Winston Churchill
during an address before the Chamber
of Commerce of the State of New York,
calling him a consistent blunderer.
The former Prime Minister, she de-
clared, had a "long record of Mistakes"
He didn't win the war. The people be-
hind him won it.
Obviously the Lady doesn't count
the part the American people had in
the victory, or what would have happen
ed to her adopted country but for
Americas aid. But that doesn't matter.
We were in it, whether she knows it
or not.
Her low opinion of Mr.. Churchill
would ring clear if she had not given
herself away in her New York speech.
She declared she had wanted a seat in
the House of Lords and asked the Prime
Minister to make her blood a little
bluer," but he didn't turn a hand to
help her.
Could it be that he is all the things
she called him because he left her sit
ting on the steps of Parliament House
a d now she's out altogether, poor
girl!

soon to come, were both well equipped
and competently trained.
The loyalist defeat in Spain was a
defeat for the Russians, just as Fran
co.'s success was in fact a victory for
Germany and Italy.
The consequences was, and still is,
that Moscow wants to revenge this de-
feat by having the United Nations GUST
Franco even if in doing so Spain might
again be bathed in blood.
Although the British and United
governments are opposing this
for trade reasons, at least their
position is governed more by commerce
than altruism, their position is the more
tenable, in that they want the people
of Spain themselves to determine the
form of government under which they
wish to live and who shall head it.

A Different OPA

The Office of Price Administration
has made so many mistakes that such
strong opposition has grown up in Con-
gress and throughout the country
there is danger that, failing agreement
on proposed amendments by the Senate
and the House, the Office may be al
lowed to expire and runaway initiation
succeed.
We have no defense for OPA's past
laundering. 1t has been inexcusable
and costly. But we are wondering if
the removal of all price regulation is
justifiable.
Noting the way prices have sky
rocketed on commodities from which
the ceiling has been lifted and the
scarcities that have resulted, it is OBJ
vious that elimination of all controls
would send consumer prices out of
all proportion to real values and the
ability of most civilians to buy.
Ultimately the law of supply and
demand would overcome the resulting
initiation, but no one knows how long
this readjustment would take, or how
many families would go hungry or with
out needed clothing while it was in pro-
The point to be considered, and it
may require the revision of previous
views by many, as it has ours, is that
instead of hamstringing the office
with amendments hard to enforce, the
whole legislation be revamped quickly
to provide a square deal for the pro-
ducer of raw materials and the pro-
cessor thereof, with all Unnecessary
and contradictory provisions eliminat-
ed, so that all parties concerned may
make a reasonable profit on their work.
By this means, it would appear, in
dustry, which has been under intoler-
able restriction, would be encouraged
to resume full production and the peo-
pie be able to buy what they require
even though wage concessions to union
labor would send price levels up.
On this basis, OPA could perform
valuable service and accomplish much
in overcoming the black markets which
have thrived chiefly through it's own
past errors.

A Case OF Revenge

1t is necessary to 60 back to Russia's
part in the Spanish Civil war to under
stand Moscow's determination to rid
Spain of Franco.
Russia took the side of the loyalists
in that war, against Franco who was
supported by Hitler and Mussolini.
Russia, not yet having been nipple
mented with American war equipment
and her forces still needing intensive
training, was no match for either Nazi
or Fascist forces which, because the
German fuehrer and the Italian duce

This Time There Really Ought To Be
A Law Passed To End This Business

larly in the case of Mike Jacobs,
the promoter of the Louis-Conn af-
fair. But just to give you an idea,
neither Louis nor Conn dared fight
for ANYBODY other than Jacobs.
Both owed Jacobs huge sums of
money. Both had to fight for ia
cobs, or else. And the else is a
nasty little word in this case. !
can assure you.
Ne other fight promoter in the
country could have hired either
Louis or Conn to fight for him.
And certainly no other fight pro-
moter could have staged the Louis
Conn business.
In this connection, what wonders
me is that the Department of JUS
tice has been able, with a holier-
than-thou expression in its collec-
tive eye, to get through antitrust
indictments and C onvictions
against three CT the large tobacco
manufacturing firms and countless
other firms, and yet a guy like
this Jacobs car get by with the
way he runs the fight racket.
And his way doesn't just go with
Louis and Corn. 1t dribbles down
through all classes and kinds OF
fighters and fight organizations.
Well, as 1 say, knowing the
racket from some years spent
messing with it - and messing is
the word - ] don't like to see this
guy Jacobs get away with it.
And from now on I've got a sheer
in the two fingers I use to beat
this typewriter for those important
people who upheld Jacobs hand,
and filled his Golfers, by laying
500 per seat on the line for those
tickets.
Pm not blaming the S. and So
seat guys. They've still got the no.
ton that boxing is a sport. The
$~10O-a-seat gents are the ones that
burn me up. They know better. And
they're the ones who ought to do
something about it instead of max
ing such a spectacle glamorous -
l reckon that's what they made it
by their presence.
Okay, O'Tocie I'm for you. Let's
you pass a law
Now, having done my good turn
Tor the day, bring me back my
shell of complacency.

a great deal of manipulating in the
boxing racket.
DEPRESSING slightly for a
moment, I recall what a very love
ly lady friend OF mine once said
about the boxing racket. 1t was in
the days wnen Max Schmeling was
one Of the eminent practitioners Of
the boxing trace. This very lovely
lady very graphically remarked,
with a sniff of her freckled
nose in the general direction of the
German boxer. HE has the per
feet name for a prizefighter".
The reason I would support with
all of my vociferous rights as a
citizen any measure to make the
word sports taboo in connection
with the boxing racket iss simply,
that boxing, as it is operated to-
day, is not only not a sport; it is a
business that should be looked into
by the Better Business bureaus,
the Department of Justice, the
FBI, or any organizattin which
cannot be reached" by the hands
Of money-grubbers who've become
used to the notion that silver
across the palm will make every
thing jake, as the boxing racke-
teers call okay.
1t really isn't the heat that's
ruffled my normal complacency. II
simply burns me up to realize that
we have in this country some 49,
900 citizens who will lay something
like So. 900. 900 on the line to nur-
ture such a fungus growing on the
body of sports.
Pm sure you don't have to be
told about the shadiness that
cloaks the boxing racket, particu-

Imperative Needs

It is the source of considerable salts
action among the promoters that con-
rentions are already being sewed up for
.947. After such a long absence during
he war, the fact that conventions are
gain being held at Wrightsville and
Carolina beaches this summer and that
,thers are on the list for next year
loes call for cheering.
But the fact is that neither of the
escorts, or Wilmington either, is pro-
,erly equipped to entertain large groups
# visitors in comfort.
1t is not the fault of the three COM
nunities. Val priorities stopped all
building and since the war ended heavy
restrictions have been placed on build
ng materials so that construction in
he entire area has been practically at
standstill, a V for some industrial
building, and a modicum of dwellings.
The need, then, as it appears to the
Star, is for greater concentration of
thought and effort upon building pro-
iects, including Wilmington's auditori-
am, for the throngs that would gladly
gather at the beaches and in Whining
;on if satisfactory accommodations
we're available.
There is need for greater and better
hotels, apartments and hotel-apart-
nents as we'll as ample halls for con-
7entions meetings. Furthermore there
Is ample local capital, now practically
die, to finance all the new construc-
lion that would put New Hanover
county near the top among Atlantic
coast resorts.
Nature has done it's part nobly.
Wrightsville and Carolina beaches offer
as fine bathing as is to be found on the
coastline, not excluding Florida's At
lantic or Gulf shores. Fresh water md
ocean fishing are above par. Golf is a
%year-round diversion for it's d~evotees,
Although lacking specially designed
bridal paths, persons who find pleasure

beautiful pines, Lacking is ADEQUATE
hotel and home availability.
With proper work and investment,
the Wilmington area can become q
