Idea Of Third Party
Opposed by Pepper
As Political Folly
BY the Assoeioied Press

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Sept. 18.-
Senator Pepper, Democrat. of Flor
ida, a figure in speculation abou
presidential possibilities, was ffrml,
on record today against a thirt
party, which he said would consti
tute political folly.
Senator Pepper declared in an in
terview here that neither he no
Secretary of Commerce Wallace
who likewise has been mentioned a
a presidential possibility, favored {
party split to set up a new organ
iZation.
"A third party would be doomed
to failure" the Florida Senator said
after he addressed the Brotherhood
OF Railroad Trainmen Convention
yesterday.
No one would get anywhere with
a third party" he added. In many
States they couldn't even get the
names on the ballots"
Reactionaries Assailed.
Senator Pepper spoke out against
reaction in his speech to the train,
men. declaring he did not like re-
action in the Democratic party any
more than I like it in the Repub-
lican party
Discussing President Truman's
radio address to the Nation last
May on the trainmens strike, the
Senator said:
Somebody so poisoned the mind
Of the Chief Magistrate that he
submitted to the people the terms
that had been reserved for our
enemies-unconditional surrender
In the interview Senator Pepper
said that the kind of liberalism we
need in the Democratic party is
the kind of democracy Franklin D
Roosevelt, Andrew Jackson ano
Woodrow Wilson believed in"
He said there was TO much con-
servationism in the Democratic
party and we must see to it there.
fore that the people who choose us
are given a truly Democratic ad-
ministration."
Calls Wallace Good Democrat.
Asked If he considered himself
or Secretary Wallace left wingers,
Senator Pepper said Il don't know
exactly what left Winger is, but
I regard Wallace as Just a good
Democrat who believes in democ-
racy and wants to see it become eff
fective"
Commenting on Secretary Wal
1ace's recent speech on Russia,
Senator Pepper said Il regard q
frank and full discussion of our
foreign policy as in the interest OF
peace. In a democracy it is the
duty of people themselves to dis
cuss and TO determine the policy of
the country when it means peace
or war for the country"
Senator Pepper was incorrectly
quoted yesterday as describing
President Truman as "reactionary.
A recording of his speech showed
that he did not make this reference
to the President. but termed some
of Mr.. Trumans advisers as re-
actionarfes. 40
The misquotation was carried
by the Associated Press, but wa.

20 LASTING SECURITY IN

Some Of the military men and
Self-styled "realists" are saying:
What's wrong with trying to
build up predominance of force.
The only way to preserve peace is
for this country to be so we'll armed
that no one will dare attack us. We
know that America will never start
war"
The flaw in this policy is simply
that it will not work In a world of
atomic bombs and other revolution
ary weapons, such as radioactive
poison gases and biological warfare,
a peace maintained by a predomi-
nance of force is no longer possible.
! Why is this so? The reasons are
clear.
First, atomic warfare is cheap and
! easy compared with old-fashioned
war. Within q very few years several

The Everyday
Counselor
Rev. Herbert Spaugh, d. d.

"Men don't as often die of dis
ease, as of internal combustion"
quoted a reader to me the other
day l don't know his authority,
but his thought is good. We were
speaking of the death of a mutual
friend who had recently sue
cumbed to heart attack in the
prime of life. While we don't
exactly know what he meant by
internal combustion" we can
make a good guess, the wear and
tear of worry, anxiety, fear, and
anger.
The world seems to have be-
come one great grab-bag from
which everyone seems to be try
ing feverishly to seize for him
self all that he can. Selfishness
looms large, while faith and trust
dwindle away.
Jesus came into a quarreling,
selfish and suspicious world. He
came with a message of love and
understanding. He offered His
life in one great demonstration
of the love of God. He made the
perfect sacrifice for the penalty
of sin. He opened the gates of
Gods love, mercy and eternal
power to all who would enter in.
There have been times when
men seemed to catch a new vision
of the love of God. The Age of
the Reformation-the sixteenth
century was notable for that when
men everywhere acquired new
consciousness of God and His
Word. Religion and the Bible
were the subjects of everyday

Dronda, aware of footsteps fol-
lowing her, grinned knowingly
and continued on toward the up
stairs bedroom, which had been
made into her dressing-room for
the evening. She walked inside,
leaving the door open, and was
seated at the little stool before
the .dressing-table when Jimmy,
magnificently disdaining to
knock, came sauntering in. He
smiled at her happily.

He didn't give her a chance to

to her, crouching before her and
resting his hand partly on her
lap. She chuckled as she sur
veyed the wound.

Now that he'd got what he'd

again, smote Bill Burke in COM

even beamed at the butler who
arrived from out of the nowhere

for him. Jimmy considered the
rug a second, then snorted.

Hollywood's more important pro-

Trees And Education

This year the Department of Public
instruction and the Department of Con-
servation and Development are working
together to have Arbor Day appropriately
observed in each school in North Caro-
lima. We think this is a fine plan.
According to the Arbor Day Law, the
Friday following the fifteenth of March
d. of each year shall be known as Arbor Day;
thus, Friday, March %, is the proper day
this year. The law goes on to state that "a
program for the observance by the school
children of the State shall issue each year
in order that they might be taught to ap-
preciate the true value of trees and for
ests to their State"
Suggestions for an Arbor Day program
have been mailed to each vocational ag-
riculture school and to each county super
intendent by the Division of Forestry and
Parks. Roy H. Thomas, State Supervisor
of Vocational Agriculture, has addressed
letter to each teacher of agriculture urg
ing the establishment of school forestry
demonstration plot, to be living example
of good forest management.
Up to 5000 pine seedlings, sufficient
quantity to plant five acres has been offer
quantity to plant five acres has been offer
Service to any vocational agriculture
school desiring to begin or enlarge their
school forest
The program suggests the possibility of
planting our own State flower, the dog
wood tree. Such planting might be ar
ranged in, cooperation with the Garden
Club of North Carolina. The recent Dog
wood Week" sponsored by the Garden Club
in cooperation with the Division of For
estry and Parks ran into thousands of
young dogwood trees.
Unwise cutting practices and forest
fires are the greatest enemies to our for
ests. The children of today are the grown
people of tomorrow and it is only fair that
each child have the opportunity of know
ing something of his or her natural sur
roundings.
