The death of OPA reminded some of us of the society writer Wht was indifferent to imitation threat! and money losing it's current value Oh" he oh'd, "let prices seek their own levels, and things vii right themselves again" Look who's talkin'. He dimes at the best places on the cuff! Repeat warning: Your dollar has one foot in the same grave where OPA is buried When Congress killed the NOPA Gas it should be named) it marked the first time Congress voted for depression . J. Elin- son says what this country needs Is a Congress that can figger out what this country needs.
 This reporter respects the N. Y Times editorialIsts. But it's at tacks against the OPA and its claims that everything will be hunky-dory without price control don't convince us The Times opinion boys have been wrong be- fore.

 One Senator named ODaniel planned to block reconsideration of the OPA bill via filibuster. One Con- gressman named Wolcott stopped reconsideration of the bill in the House by his bjection-because unanimous consent is needed. But public opinion polls reveal that about 75 per cent of Americans favor a strong OPA.
 Yet Americans blast Russia be- cause one man named Gromyko blocks the will of the majority!
 Hey, Senator, Have an. imitation note: In June 1889 the Hungarian pengo was worth 1912 cents. To- day 1t is worth less than HOO of a penny. In other wordage an American dollar is worth 100 quad rillion pengos.
 The Senate has mixed plans to probe Bilbos attempt to deprive citizens of their civil rights Sen ators announced with a straight face that such a probe would be an insult to the citizens of Mississippi Such horSe-radish! Bilbo's record is an odious insult to the citi- zens of Mississippi. And the re- fusal of the Senate to do some thing about Bilbo Is an insult to the citizens of the other AT States.
 Why this namby-pamby atti- tude toward Bilbo? Some time ago the Senate refused to seat Senator from Illinois because of q corrupt election.

ALTOS and THE RID.

This year rural free delivery and the
automobile round out a half century.
Tha;r Growth and accomplishment since
1905 has been amazing, and they we'll
deserve the best wishes of the nation on
their golden anniversaries. Certainly
oil those concerned with the best IN
forest Of Americas highways-and that
takes in just about everybody-haVe
reason TO felicitate the country mall car
,;or and the automobile industry. What
+bnv have done to improve our roads
is a part of the saga of the country s
progress. -.
The impact of rural free delivery
on country roads was immediate. When
tbe system was launched in 1896, 1t was
trulv "the horse and buggy era" for no
record is found of an automobile Delng
amnlovcd in RID service until several
wears later, In extending the service,
condition of the road was OF prime con-
sideratlon.
If the carrier in his buggy could not
roach the farm on his route regularly,
# was not his fault. Those who missed
the service we're quick to recognize why
they we're penalized. The result-tarm-
ers who had thought the road past their
farms would do, began grading, hauling
cinders and gravel, improving the
drainage. -to-market roads began
slowly to emerge from the mud.
On the main highway between cities,
the motorcar's influence was first telt.
Granted that the car Of fifty years ago
was net particularly rugged, perlls OF
early motoring were often as much
from the highway as from mechanical
difficulties. Civic pride stepped In at
this point for no predetermined munich
paGtv wanted the reputation that it was
inaccessible to this new form OF trans
portatoa. SO Importance OF primary
highway 5: stems came to be realized:
TO eEist and to serve, the automoDlic
and rural free delivery had to have good
roads. Out of their necessity has grown
our present system Of primary and sec
ondary highways.

Editorial
LET'S LOOK IN ON
WILLARD G.. COLE

Less than three months ago, new
resident and family moved into to"h
and went to work as eNecutlve-secretary
of the Tabor City Merchants Assocla-
ton. Inc. then in its infancy. That man,
Will ard q. Cole has done much already
to pull that organization tc its feet ana
show the world its significance and nee
essitv if Tabor City is to top the hurdle
that separates a village from a town.
As Mr.. Cole puts it, Its first down
and II to &C." The team is just getting
set for the hard season that is to come.
But in getting set, the team has ac-
complshcd much in practice drills.
Some promise OF more paved roads
IN this area has been received, sala-
ricd deputy sheriff has been placed IN
Tabor City, arrangements have been
worked cut for public rest room taclll-
ties. suggestions for more efficient
cleaning Of the streets have been ac-
cepted. permanent records of the local
tobacco market have been set up for
the first time here, a movement Tor
town coming ordinance is being started,
a committee is at work on securing a
hotel here and office records which Will
establish plan for continuous service
to the community by the merchants as
ISOLATION have been set up.
Mr.. Cole has had much to do with all
these things despite the fact that he has
been exceptionally busy ever since ne
came here as sales supervisor OF the
tobacco market.
The Merchants Association itself and
the executive secretary are assets to
this community. Let us hope that IN
ternst among the merchants will never
lac in their own organization. It's some
thing that may well mean the differ
ence between success and failure OF
Tabor City to maintain its high place
among the market centers OF North and
South Carolina.

Newspapers

Newspapers are what people say
there's nothing in, but raise the very
dickens when they don't get them.
NEWSPAPERS are delivered by boys
who ride bicycles across your favor

lust far enough from the front step
to make you come out in your pa
jamas to get it. Newspaper carriers
are all alike in that they come TO
collect either when you have no
change or are just getting into the
bathtub.
Newspapers of course can be
bought from vendors who yell even
louder than their headlines but VINO
prove that the spoken word is much
less understandable than the written.
Newspapers are frequently accused
of conducting smear campaign,
but they positively do not except

read them spread out across linen

PUBLIC SERT4INT

October to s has been set aside and
designated as Newspaper Week. 1t IS
designed to give the people OF small
and large communities the opportunity
to know the newspapers serving them
and 70 weigh that service.
''Public Service" is the theme OF
Newspaper Week. There is much con-
tanned in those two words.
The people, meaning residents OF
rural and metropolitan America, too
frequently take their newspapers for
granted or as matter Of course, like
the air they breathe. Yet 1t may be
truthfully said that the press, weekhes
and dailes, constitute the backbone OF
the American way Of living-Amel1can
Democracy. Without a free press we
would be much like the enslaved peoples

No matter what their cause, they are
not good citizens if the success OF any
foreigner interests them more than the
welfare of their own State.

to many people and to some, it is
dangerous. If there is an interior
paint job to be done, it is possible
to buy liquid which will take away
all the paint odor and the bad ef-
fects of paint when it is mixed with
the paint before application. 1t can
be used in enamel and varnish as
well as paint and will not have any
effects on the paint itself. The cost
is small and the method of use is
simplicity itself. The cap of the
container acts as a measure and the
amount required depends on the
kind of paint being used. guam
tity recommended for the average
paint is a teaspoonful to the gallon
but in practice this amount can be
adjusted to suit the circumstances
If too much deodorant is used the
paint will take on the smell of the
liquid but that is not serious be-
cause, though it soon wears off, the
odor is quite pleasant.
