The field would be main tatned by American civilian person. nel.

If he can be convinced it has purged

Farley was for years one of the
most popular men in the Democrat

the President with whom he broke.
If the Republicans win. Il defeated
Democracy might bring so much

Many of the party faithful would
welcome the former postmaster gen.

forsaken the party label, not by
jugful. He is too good a party man
for that. though he has not lent
his influence to furthering pro

there are some millions of good

Germany was known as iaScism.
could hardly be expected so soon to
shift their own convictions They
are even more hostile to the Soviet
political system than Britain and
the United States. and it has been
speculated that they look 10 these
two great western powers to throw
up bulwarN of defense against in
roads OF the bolSheviSt theory Of
government.
Unless there is a change in the
method OF administering occupied
Germany. that country will not soon

to be. namely. Il barrier to the west

II now is, there are four different

Most Germans look TO the west

Not Surprising

Budget requests exceeding the

border on the ridiculous. II is pre-
posterous to suppose that the State
is justified in authorizing such an
overall outlay of spending in the
two years beginning next July /.
and which will be asked of the leg
islature this winter.
1t goes without saying that appro-
priations will exceed anything in the
States history and will DC stagger-
ing in their proportions. But there
is hardly good reason to suppose
that the pressure groups. in the ag-
gregate. will be resisted by the Cen
eral Assembly TO the extent of keep
ing the spending within the bounds
OF reason. Taxpayers had as well
resign themselves to a fate of con-
tinued digging on the part Of agen-
cies which spend. unless there shall
be a groundswell Of popular revul-
sion. and that is not likely. North
Carolinians are too meek and sub

along that line. They growl and COM
