MORE PRODUCTION
LOWER PRICE KEY
Senator Hoey Sound.
ing In Address 10
Food Dealers

ASHEVILLE, Sept. 9. - B -
"Production is the answer to high
prices in this country and the
only satisfactory answer" Sena-
tor Clyde R. Hoey told members
of the North Carolina Food
Dealers association at their an
nual banquet here tonight.
when we are able to produce
goods in sufficient quality to meet
the demand Of the buyers, then
the people who have those goods
will have to work to sell them
and that is when prices will
come down." the Senator told
food dealers. "That is why the
soundest method of helping the
countries of Europe, where their
economy is disrupted, is to pro-
vide ways for them to produce
themselves what they need"
Senator Hoey has great faith
in the Marshall plan but he
thinks that people generally do
not understand how it is suppos-
ed to operate.
1.-THE reason I like the plan
is that it puts the burden on
those countries to make their
own survey of their assets and
their needs. When these facts
are determined by them they
can come to us and we can see
what help they really need that
they are not in a position to
supply among themselves. That
is why it is such a practical
and common sense approach to
this problem"
Senator Hoey's banquet speech
climaxed the three-day session OF
the food dealers which drew
about 200 persons from all parts
of the state.
The chief speaker at the ses-
sion during the morning was
Monroe M. Redden, of Hender-
sonville, Congressman from the
18th district.
E. J. Angelo of Winston-Salem,
was elected president of the as
ISOLATION at the close of the morn
ing program. He succeeds John

boro of Durham. was named first
vice-president; J. c. Parker Jr.,
of Wilmington, second vice-presi-
dent; and James C. MCLAUGHLIN

CT INSURANCE, SAYS
ADMINISTRATION

World War Two veterans b.
the tens of thousands are pick

Veterans Administration.
The VA reports that in a little
more than six months more thar
zoe, 900 veterans have reinstatee
81, 300, 900, 900 worth of Nationa
Service Life Insurance.
In the branch four area o:

The dealine for reinstatement
has been extended, so it's still,
easy to pick up World War Two

VA.
In most cases, it's only neces-
sary to pay two months prem

The UN charter called for UN

Adults were carrying children
on their backs. In one instance
four men were transporting a
litter on which was lying a boy
who had been severely stabbed.
Many wept as they walked. And
they appeared uncertain of any
definite destination.
At one point a. cluster of Sikhs
in civilian clothes watched the
procession. One Sikh slapped
with his sword another who ran
out as though to taunt the
Moslems.
Police in both old and new
Delhi, instructed to "shoot to
kill" moved down looters and
rioters throughout the day. De-
spite the rioting a few shops
opened for a couple Of hours to
sell food.
Bodies of those slain today and
yesterday still were lying in the
streets. Newsmen touring the city
saw the police and soldiers be-
sieging snipers who fired from
houses or tossed bombs from
rooftops.
While troops stationed in vari-
Gus points on New Delhi's Con-
naught circus - the business
section of the city - maintained
order by shooting looters on sight,
there were reports of many res.
idents terrorized by small
groups of Sikhs threatening
Moslems and killing them in some
places.
Special guards were placed at
all embassies, and at the resi-

The India cabinet decided to

SNYDER, DOUGLAS
DISCUSS LOANS"
Treasury Secretary Will
Hold Conference With
Dalton Today

LONDON, Sept. 9.-UD-Un-
tied States Secretary of the
Treasury John W. Snyder spent
naost of today at the embassy
with Ambassador Lewis Douglas
discussing British proposals for
an emergency loan which will be
presented formally to him to-
morrow.
Svnder gave the rest of his
time to conferences with the Am
erican delegation to the second
annual meeting of the Interna-
tional Bank and World None
tary Fund which opens here
Thursday.
The British cabinet, at a meet
ing which lasted three and one
half hours, approved three sug-
gestions for immediate dollar aid
to tide over the nation until the
Marshall plan takes effect, re-
liable sources said.
These were: l. Thawing Of the
last $500, 900, 900 of the Ameri-
can loan; 2. A loan from the
American Export-Import bank,
whose president William Martin,
is here, and, 3. A loan from
either the International Bank or
Monetary fund.
Snyder definitely will see
Chancellor OF The Exchequer
Hugh Dalton tomorrow, probably
Prime Minister Attlee and pos
sibly other cabinet ministers.
The secretary of the treasury
talked Informally with Dalton,
while driving from Southamp-
ton, where he arrived aboard the
Queen Elizabeth, to London last
night.
American sources pointed out
decisions on stop-gap help for
Britain will be deferred until
Snyder and his group return to
Washington.
Other Synder aides include
John o. McCloy, president of the
World Bank; Allen Sproule,
governor of the Federal Reserve
Board of New York, and David
Bruce, assistant secretary OF
commerce. U. S. Undersecretary
of State Will Clayton also is ex-
pected from Paris.
Besides dollar talks other
items on today's cabinet agenda
were: A final review of propo-
sails of increasing Britain's ex-
ports, which will be announced
Friday by Sir Stafford Grips,
president of the board of trade,
and measures to end the Grip
ping Yorkshire coal strike.
Cabinet ministers arriving at
No. 10 Downing St. for the meet
ing were welcomed boisteriously
by members of the American
Legion and American Legion
Auxiliary now on tour Of Brit
ain as guests of the British Le-
gion. The Legionnaires heartily
applauded, Bevin, Grips and
other ministers and took scores
of snapshots. .

Hopeful Picture
The hopeful picture, he said,
lies in the fact that the German
youth are receptive to dem
ocratic idealogies. He illustra-
ted this point by relating a
scene at one of the schools con-
Quoted under the supervision OF
the Americans.
Here, he said, he found a
German girl of perhaps 12-years
of age. Despite the fact that
she had had only one years
instruction in English she
could carry on an intelligent
conversation. And he told how
eager she was for American
books.
In this connection, he said,
there soon would be a cam
paign started in every state to
collect used American school
books to be shipped abroad for
tho 11se of German youth.
ct believe" he said, "that
had the United States followed
this policy after 1913, there
would have been no second
world war"
He said that he went into one
house-which was typical and
there found a mother with five
half-naked children, half starv-
ed and without the barest neces-
sites.
1t was a typical home, he
said, because less than Is per
cent of the houses in Berlin
have electric lights; less than
five per cent have refrigeration;
and less than 10 per cent have
running water.
Disease Rampant
He said disease, of every
kind was rampant in Berlin, the
Russian zone, and all the time
the Russians are telling the
people that the Americans have
come to exploit them.
The answer to the four prob
lens lies in returning the Ger
man people to their former
occupations-that of industry
and manufacturing.
The German people, he said,
never had been agriculturists,
and any attempt to make farm
ers of them woult' meet with
failure.
He said that his visit to the
coal mines pictured one of mis-
cry, deprivation, and hunger.
The miners, he said, were given
extra rations, but they refused
to eat the extra food preferring
to hide it and take it home to
their families.
"And with all our efforts"
Park said, "the Russians are do
ing a better job teaching COM
munism than we are doing
teaching democracy"

ing. This latter task was ''most ex-
hausting labor" and it eventually
stopped the shoulders of one of Ha-
gerstown's great printers. Although
he never sought an Office, Mr.. Sneary
was for long time the most in
fiuential man in the Republican par
ty in this part of the State.
The Office of The Herald and
Torchlight was for many years on
the second floor of a building on the
north corner of East Washington St.
and the Square. There was a bench
on the sidewalk by the door where
Mr.. Sneary sat every evening and
thought, or talked with anyone who
came by.
Thirteen years before the death of
John R. Sneary in 1879, a part in
terest in this paper was sold to Pc
ter Negly. Mr.. Negly was active in
law and politics, besides holding a
position in the Hagerstown Savings
Institution, continuing as cashier
after that bank became the First Ma
tional Bank of Hagerstown, but he
took little part in the work of the
newspaper. Later his son, Charles
Negly, became proprietor and it is
recorded only that he sold the paper
to John M. Mentzer.
Mr.. Mentzer had been publishing
the "Odd Fellow" in Boonsboro and
he merged the two papers, retaining
the Herald and Torchlight name.
After his death the paper was sold
to Charles w. Adams, of Sharpsburg,
and James P. Matthews. Shortly
after this the ownership of the pa
per was incorporated, the leading
stockholders being Louis E. McCom-
as and Edward Stake.
This company bought the Hagers-
town Daily News and began the pub
