RALEIGH, June THE visit of
Henry Agard Wallace to Raleigh
got the Raleigh dateline in major
newspapers throughout the world
by reason of his categorical state
ment ne would not support Presi-
dent Truman for reelection. Ex-
cept for that there was nothing
iii North Carolina speeches that
deviated from previous commit
ments. Locally his appearance
created no ripples On the smooth
surface of political affairs. Few
men spent a buster day Thursday
than did Mr.. Wallace. Beginning
with a press conference at 10
o'clock, followed by a conference
with the local ministerial associ-
alton, a luncheon, a side tip and
speech to students at Chapel Hill
and winding up with the main
event in the auditorium that night.
the former vice president had nc
time to rest-and he admitted he
was tired.
EVENTS. - The press confer
ence attracted more than a dozen
local reporters and half as many
out Of staters, and set the stage
for the most positive anti-Truman
anti-Democratic party statement
Wallace had mads to that time.
The luncheon had a little over a
hundred guests each of whom DIT
out five dollars for the occasion,
half of which is said to have gone
into the treasury IF the sponsor
ing Committee for North Carolina
OF the Southern Conference Tor
Human Welfare ana the other half
to the hotel. The luncheo, had
been moved from Durham be-
cause the hotel there fixed a rate
of four bucks a plate. The press
conference also lad been shufflei
around from place to place until
finally arranged at the home Of
Josephus Daniels, with whom Wal
lace was staying.
PRELIMTNARIES. - Prelimi.

auditorium took more time than
the lecture itself and o~ccasioned

The Gallup Poll
The Ga[up Poll
Says Truman Should Be Allowed
To Veto Parts OF New Labor Bill
Reform Is Favored In Poll
AS President Faces I'm
portant Question
By O GALLUP
Director, American Institute
of Public Opinion

PRINCETON, N. j., June
MANY Presidents - and
Mr.. Truman is probably no
exception - have wished that
they could veto parts of bills
sent by Congress for White
House approval.
With a momentous veto decision
confronting Mr.. Truman in the
shape of the labor union control
bill, the President must under the
constitution either reject the meas
r in whole or accept it in whole.
Some students Of government have
felt that this should be changed
that the president should have the
power to pick out parts Of bills
for disanproval, especially in the
case Of appropriations bills.
There is wide public support
for this contention. A survey by
the Institute finds that among
people who know what a veto is,
sentiment is overwhelmingly in
favor of permitting a President to
veto some items in a bill without
vetoing the whole measure.
In probing the public's attitude,
several questions were asked to
find out how much people know
about the subject of vetoes.
The first question was:
will you tell me what the term
veto means to you? For example,
what does it mean when the presi-
dent vetoes a bill sent him by
Congress?"
Eight out of every 10 voters
polled go per cent? gave a cor
rect answer, while 20 percent
gave either an incorrect answer Or
said they didn't know.
The 80 per cent who indicated
correct knowledge were asked:
AT the present time, when Con-
gress passes a bill, the President
cannot veto parts of that bill, but
must accept it in full Or veto it.
Do you think this should be chang
ed SO that the President can veto
SOME items in a bill without veto
ing the entire bill?"
The vote of those who gave a
correct difinition go per cent?
was:

not the one causing greatest concern.
1t is the loss of the young men and
women themselves.
They, more than any others, are
needed at home to bring southern
economy, as we'll as practically all other
phases of its life, to a point COM
parable with the majority of the north
ern and western states. On them rests
the principal hopes of a better regional
future.
The south has progressed so in
recent years that its opportunities for
the university and college graduate are
greater than ever before. 1t is time
that more of these young people heed
ed the words of Governor Thurman.
In doing so not only will they be bet
ter off but their homeland will reap
the full benefits of the education it
made possible for them.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-06-08

Now that the first furry of excite
ment over City Manager Benson's pro-
posal to revamp the Recreation depart
ment and merge many Of it's functions
with the Parks agency has cooled off,
it is not difficult to see that he has
offered Council the opportunity to re-
examine its recreation program.
No serious damage, as was first in
dicated, has been done.
It must be remembered that his
plan is simply a suggestion.
1t is up to Council to determine what
kind Of program the city will have.
Because the matter is one of policy,
final decision is with the five elected
men in preparing the 1947-48 budget.
If they care to increase the outlay for
this necessary municipal function, they
have the authority to do so. They also
have the power to slash it's budget to a
ridiculous minimum.
There is little likelihood they will do
either.
Rather, it appears safe to forecast
that when the financial plans for recrea-
ton are drafted for the new fiscal year,
the city may be getting more for it's
.recreational dollar than eve before.
While refraining from endorsing MI.
Benson's proposals to greatly curtail
personnel but, at the same time, keep
all Fairgrounds open through use of
supervision, we beliefe they
are certainly worth Council %considera-
In fact, he has hopes of opening
new Fairgrounds. All, he has said,
would be in charge of a director to CO.
ordinate programs and other opera
.ional details. There would be no
in the Community center and
t would continue both indoor and out
door activities under a trained direc-
,or.

The favorable ratio is more than
2-to1.
Opinion on the matter of veto
ing parts of bills was tested once
before, in l945. During that
years Congressional session, Sem
ator Vandenberg of Michigan
proposed to allow the President
to veto parts of appropriations
bills. His proposal died in COM
mittee, but an Institute poll at
the time found the public for it
by a substantial majority.
To see how many voters are
accurately informed about Con-
g%ressional powers in regard to a
veto, the Institute put this ques.
ton to the 30 per cent who indi-
Gated correct knowledge Of the
meaning Of the word veto.
If the president vetoes a bill,
can Congress override his veto?''
The results show the public very
we'll informed.
Yes, it can override --------70%
No. it can't 4
Don't know 6
500
The next question in the quiz
vas this:
How much of a majority is re-
,uired for the Senate and House
O override a Presidential veto?"
The correct ansWe a two
birds majority was given by AZ
or cent of all voters.
People who have had college
aiming scored high on the difini-
on of what a veto is and did well
on the question of whether Con-
lgress can override one.

DANIEL BOONE vi
IA O-Second CIose-Up)

SHuTHX. Over a blacksmith's shop
in the mountain hamlet of Burnsville.
N. c., hangs a sign which reads:
Daniel Boone's Forge"
There's nothing whimsical about
the wording. The slight, wiry, soft
spoken mechanic at the forge inside is
Daniel Boone, direct descendant of
the lIustrious woodsInan and sixth
successive Boone named Daniel.
Daniel Boone vi has achieved
fame as a Craftsman who can make
anything out of metal Products of
his forge include wrought iron door
hinges, fireplace fixtures, iron grills.
SC1APPER- Father of Daniel No. 6
was a blacksmith, 50 was his grand
father. There's a legend that Grand
father once took time off to fight an
other North Carolinian by the name
of Dempsey, grandfather of Jack. 1t
must have been quite a battle for the
town commissioners of Burnsville pro-
claimed the Dempsey fists lethal and
threatened to charge him with assault
with deadly weapons.
Daniel vi played at his fathers
forge, learned how to handle hot iron
on an anvil, has been at it.ever since.
During the war he transformed his
shop into a one-man arsenal to make
sure his two CT sons were we'll armed.
He made each boy fighters knife -
an exquisite weapon with curved
blade and buckhorn handle.
Inevitably the boys showed their
knives to buddies, who swamped
Daniel with orders. He turned them
out as fast as he could, two a day.
That meant working half the night.
TnMKEREH. Daniel is an inveterate
tinkerer, will often neglect money
bringing orders. In 1887 he decided
to make perfect scale model of
locomotive. The idea was to exhibit
it at the 1889 Worlds Fair, but the
Evening star., 1947-02-23

job took seven years. The masterpiece
is now set up and ready to run on
perfect section of miniature track.
Though experts consider Daniel a
great craftsman, he thinks of himself
simply as a good blacksmith and
mechanic. He regards his venturesome
ancestor with respect and is proud to
bear his name, but is embarrassed
when anyone tells him he has added
luster to it. ANDREW HEPgURN

JOBS AVAILABLE
ON COUNTY FARMS

1t isn't possible today for q
young man to go West and stake
his claims on a quarter section
of Federal land and start farm
ing. These opportunities are gone
forever. However, it is possible
for a young man to find a job on
a good farm here in Union county
and by some hard work, interest
and perseverance he may create
as good an opportunity to become
a farmer as those who have gone
West. Several good farm jobs are
available on the best farms in
Union county, according to Coun-
ty Agent Frank Greeneisen
Many of these are untitled today
because men are not available.
Most farmers want married
men and some would like to help
a veteran get started in farming
Good houses are often provided
and the usual provisions.
Men who might be interested
in these jobs should contact the
county Agents Office in the Post
Office, in Marysville Now is the
time to get started on farm for
fall work. More young men IN
Union county should look ahead
and see the splendid opportunities
in stalking a claim" on a good
farm job.
