Labor Advances
 By RUTH DEMBO

scrapers and factories that make America the richest industrial na- ton in the world It Is their daily toll that keeps the railroads run- ming, and food and consumer goods flowing into the nations cities daily.
 They are the backbone of Amer ica, the source of the country's strength. They are also the essence of American democracy. For with out free working people America could never have achieved it's great strength and power.
 A free working people who en- joy decent hours and good work ing conditions are in the long run a productive people. A chattel har- messed to machine will reap . small harvest.
 America will always be as strong and as healthy as it's working peo- pie. For it is Americas workers who make up most of this coun- trys population. Therefore any, thing that advances the well-being of working people advances the cause of democracy. And that means that more American work CTS must have the benefit of good working conditions. It also means that there must be continual vig- dance among American workers to see that none of their hard earned rights are taken away from them.
 Just as the Bill of Rights has be- come the law of the land bringing with it political rights for the peO- pie, so must ROOsevelts Bill of Economic Rights be written into law. Only then will lasting ecOn- Omic democracy be achieved. Only then will American workers lbe guaranteed security. And so on this Labor Day the message for American workers is: "Strive on in the spirit of FDR, who is no longer here to fight for you, for that better America that he envis- toned for every American worker"

More than half of the American people are working people, the peo- pie who man the machines and make the wheels of industry go round. They are the men and women who build the bridges, sky

of the section as a whole, have
been producing broccoli, kale and
cabbage, all winter crops, and are
being prepared for new planting,
with some of the late growth still
providing green produce.
Grazing and cover crops were
well started in the sections Wis

are not expected to produce as
much as in previous years, Gal

Daffodil and f1arcissus bulbs are
plentiful in the fields of the Castle

FIREMEN PREPARE
FOR TANKER FIRES

Fizzz and blanket Of choking
chemicals covers the fire. Equip
ment is spared destruction and if
the call is received in due time a
life is saved.
This is the way the Wilmington
Fire department works to extin-
guish an oil blaze and save valu-
able property and life.
Assistant Chief J. A. West Of the
local fire department explained
that although there has not been a
major oil fire reported since the
early days of the war, the depart
ment anticipates recurrent action
soon with the return of uncontrolled
gasoline distribution in the state
omanating from Wilmington term
inals.
The local terminals dispense
gasoline and other petroleum prod
ucts throughout the state and into
near areas of Tennessee, an unoffi-
cia1 announcement disclosed.
Although the extent of fire dam
age from wrecked tankers on the
streets and highways is not known
generally, it is appalling according
to West who recalls that prior to
the war. the department answered
numerous calls to extingulsh fires
caused by wrecked tankers, COM
bustion of the highly inflammaDle
liquid or spilled gas which had
been ignited in other ways.
The department relies on the eff
ficiency of chemical which has a
smothering effect, the assistant
chief said. It is semi-solid COM
pound which is made soluble by
mixing with water, thus forming a
gas which is forced out and spreads
over the area of fire, blanketing the
space so that oxygen is not avail
able to feed the flames.
In matter of seconds the Oil
fire is extinguished and the possible
loss of human life avoided.
The last oil fire recalled by mem
bers of the fire department was
one which occurred during the early
days of the war north of the city
in the vicinity of Smiths creek.

Atlanta's "Blue Baby"

ATLANTA, Jan. 2o-(R-Three-
year-old Myrna Brock, a "Blue

Johns Hopkins hospital in Balti-
more and an operation which may

Truck farmers in the New Han
over and Fender county districts
are diversifying their early spring
crops, from all indications.
The approximately $780, 900 an
nual production from the Wrights-
boro, Castle Hayne and st. Helena
sections in bulbs, flowers and
vegetables, long a gamble with To-
cal producers, is giving way to
more and more grain planting.
In a tour of the main truck
producing areas in the company OF
R. W. Galphin, county agent, a
number of fields sowed in wheat
and oats were noted.
more grain appears to have
been planted this year than ever
BEFORE" is the way Galphin sizes
it up. He attributes it to lack of
labor and the relative inexpensive
ness of sowing a field in either OF
the two grains.
The setting out Of lettuce and
other truck products is under way,
a little early this year, Galphin
says, but the work has been re-
tarded by excess water in the
fields.

The story goes that when ten

Burney the after dinner speaker

Ia wayside inn and anticipating q
modest dinner to be served later
at the meeting, ordered and ate
full barbecue dinner.
The meeting was held at the

all the trimmings, they secretly
wished they had waited to eat.

they had to go through with it.
So, they ate again.
During the speech, Flowers
shrank in terror that the Judge
would end the next paragraph by
asking him if he was hungry.
The speech ended and nothing Of
the nature occurred.
But on the way home and again
about ten miles out from the scene
OF the banquet, in an aside ano

asked-could you do with a couple

done, and for one think our moral
position is better after Moscow
than it was after London.
For it does not seem to me. as
apparently it does to Mr.. WelIes
that at London the world regarded
us the champions of great prin
ciples. The world was only toe
acutely aware that where our own
interests were concerned we were
acting on different principles.
Therefore, in SO far as Mr.. Byrnes
brought our principles and ou1
practice nearer together, it was a
moral advance. For it is better,
indeed more honorable, not to have
such high principles, but to con-
form to them yourself, than to
impose the high principles on 9TH
ers and disregard them yourself.
| Looked a this way, the evolu-
ton of American policy from Lon
don to Moscow can be judged quite
differently than Mr.. Wenes judges
it. Because he looks only at our
PRINCIPLES as we applied them to
the Balkans in London, and for
gets our actual policy and prac-
tice in the sphere OF our interests
in the Pacific, he accuses the gov
eminent of descending to bad faith.
But if we look at our policy and
practice and then at our principles
in the world as a whole, we may
say, 1 believe, that we began to
ascend from a position which was
most ambarrassingly hypocritical.
Mr.. Welles himself is in a posi-
ton which is not free OF embarrass'
ment. He is ardent in saying that
we ought not to negotiate with the
Balkan states until representative
governments had been freely elect
ed in those countries But when
our government refuses to negotl-
ate with Bulgarian government
that has not been freely elected,
we are, he says, abandoning our
leadership in the creation OF
free and democratic world or
der" But when Mr.. Spruille Bra
den refuses to negotiate with the
present Argentine government, Mr..
Welles complains that we are VIC
lating the sacred principle OF non
Intervention in the internal affairs
of foreign countries.
Mr.. Wenes' passion for freely
elected representative government
is therefore, greater in one CONT
nent than it is in another, and 1
find it hard to believe that the
world will follow our moral leader
ship if our principles 60 higher
and higher the farther they are
from home.-Copyright, 1916, New
