Citizens Of Area Are Urged To
Register So They Nav Cast Vote

Tomorrow the registration books will be open
again offering citizens of this section duty and a
privilege of which all too few will take advantage.
Within short time there will be another Cen
era Election in the nation and it is expected gener-
ally that lot of votes will be cast. North Caro-
lima however, will probably do little votlno IN the
General Election because most people feel that the
real election completed in the Democratic prl-
maries in the Spring. For that reason theN "
away from the polls in droves, little realizing that
primary votes are not even considered when II
to appointment of privileges for the people-au those
are based on votes cast in general election.
One of the chief troubles with the citizens of our
own county is that they have too little interest in
their right to the ballot They lose sight OF the fact
that the right to the free ballot one OF the basic
issues that their forefathers sought in the American
Revolution of 1875.
Most of the people take it for granted that Kerr
Scott has already been elected Governor and j. M.
BrOughtOn has already been elected to the United
States Senate without considering that these men
will not be the elected officials Of this state until the
November General Election ballots are tabuated 1t
is probably certainty, that in North Carolina that
the men who have already the nomination in
the Democratic primaries will be elected. 1t is the
vote which is cast however, to make that election Of
fetal that is going to be considered when the duly
elected officials of the state and nation start
sdering how many voters have bestirred themselves
enough take interest in the public issues facing
them.
Tomorrow the registration books in Halifax and
surrounding counties will be open again to allow those
whose names not already there to qualify
voters in the November voting.
1t is the duty of every person in this section who
considers himself citizen of his township, county,
state nation to to that he is correctly regis
cred; and it is a duty and privilege of these
people to shake off the political apathy which has
encumbered our state for so long by going to the
polls and voting for somebody for something on
November 2.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8-Harry
S. Truman, Banker, Office and
Home Address, San Francisco,
Calf.
That may be the Who's Who
description of President Tru-
mans occupation and residence
after January 20, lS49, assuming
that he will run second in the
November presidential election.
Anyway, it is the belief among
bankers that through the spon-
sorship of his old friend, Trea-
sury Secretary John W. Snyder,
Mr.. Truman will become a key
figure in the A. P. Gianinni Or
ganization.
JOB: Secretary Snyder, who
has frequently denied that he
will join up with the Gianinni
empire when he quits Washing
ton, has pursued policies that
nave kept him in favor with the
nations bankers.
He has, albeit behind-the-
scenes in most instances, oppos-
ed the Federal Reserve Board
the Securities and Exchange
Commission when they sought to
tighten regulations on the
branch banking operations of Mr.
Despite Mr.. Snyder's protests,
it is generally believed that he
will wind up with an important
banking institution. In view of
his neutrality-suspicious. field,
his services with the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation
and his prestige as Mr.. Truman
Secretary of the Treasury, he
could be a valuable addition to
any corporation.
And what more natural than
that he should land a job for
his old friend in the White House,
who make him what he is today?
LEGISLATOR: Prior to this
new development, there had been
talk at Washington that defeat
ed Mr.. Truman would seek the
senatorial nomination from Mis-
souri, in 1850. Like John @. A
dams, be might become a more
useful and distinguished legisla-
tor than he was a President.
But the hitch here, according
to grapevine informants from
st. Joseph, Mo-, is that Presi-
dent Truman, especially if de-
defeated next November, could
not wrest the senatorial nomina-
ton from Governor Phil M. Dom
nelly, who is expected to run for
the Senate after his present term

Clergyman Explains That Other
Ministers Do Not Understand L. S.

Dr. Ralph w. Sockman, well known clergyman,
recently returned to this country from the Amster
dam Conference of churches with the observation
that the opposition to capitalism by delegates
based upon misunderstanding of that system as it
exists in the United States.
The clergyman points out that the resolution con-
demning Communism and Capitalism had been
vised to refer to aissez fare capitalism He points
out that Americans were in a minority group" be-
cause most of the other delegates live under some
kind of socialized government. He commented "They
don't know what our American capitalism really is"
This very interesting statement indicates that
the conference in connection with the resolution
to capitalism, was dealing with subject-matter of
which most of the delegates uniformed. This
passing resolutions upon secular subjects and ind-
Gates that it might be we'll for the church, ndivdu
ally and collectively to confne itself to the inter-
probation of spiritual matters.

NARROW Tells Why Atomic
Control Still Is Disputed

Russia.
Russia refused to agree to the
international control plan which
had been approved by major
lty OF the commission including
the United States.
Unable to go on, the comm
ission dumped the problem
back in the lap of the
u.N, Assembly, which created
the commission.
What can the assembly do,
even though it's made up of the
90 nations in the U.N.?
For one thing, it could vote
to condemn Russia for blocking
atomis control. Such a condem
natin would be sign that
world opinion is against Russia.
Even so, the Assembly is help
less to force Russia to agree to
the plan approved by the com
mission. The Assembly lacks
power to force any nation to do
anything.
1t can vote an opinion or ev
en- recommendation, but that's
all.
The assembly could vote to
have the special atomic COM
mission, which quit in despair In
May, continue It's work. Why?
In the hope that somehow it
cou4u find a solution to which
the United States and Russia
both would agree.
The US. wants the Assembly
to condemn Russia to show the
world that Russia is at fault,
Last week Canada, backed by
the US, asked the Assembly
to do that. This put Russia on
the spot, on the defensive.
A couple of days later--appar
entity trying to make it appear
that she really wanted to play
bail-Russla. bobbed up in the
assembly with a new plan of
her own.
At first this might have looked
like a step toward agreement.
But the U. S. quickly made it
known that it condisers Russla's
plan a phony.
Secretary of State Marshall.

sessions in Paris, sent back
work to his State Department
to 'debunk" Russia's plan.

OCTOBER 8, 1871, at 9:25 PM. flames rose up
in Patrick OLearys barn just north of the river
in Chicago. Just how 1t started is matter of
legend and conjecture. But before its spread
stopped on Oct 9, il had enveloped an area of
1900 acres. Some 10000 buildings were de-
stroyed, and nearly 100000 persons were made
homeless. The loss figured in money was $780,
600 000-the equivalent today of billion dollars
The loss of life, fortunately and almost miracu-
lousy. was small
When fire struck that night, most OF Chicago's
$4,000 buildings were wooden pine The city had
sprung up rapidly TO 100000 population and
there was little substantial construction There
were no effective fire prevention regulations. and
an inadequate fire department Drought had lay
on the city all summer. the rainfall was less than
3OR7 OF normal for the season, and for weeks hot
winds had swept in from the praires The build
lngs were dry as finder. The waterworks and
the water supply both were Inadequate The Stu
alton was made to order for a confagration such

Washington, Oct. 8 -.(AP)-
This is an ABC on the atom
bomb to bring you up to date on
what's happened and why.
It's been three years - and
millions of words, lot Of them
confusing double-talk words
since the first A-bomb dropped
on Hiroshima.
Now it's in the headlines again
because of the bitter debate il
the United Nations between the
United states and Russia.
After three years of trying,
that debate is sad evidence of
the failure to set up information
al control of the A-bomb and
atomic energy.
Who's to blame? It's getting
to be an old story now. The
United States blames Russia,
Russia bIames the United States
Because those two countries
still are miles apart on how the
controls should work, all efforts
at international control have fail
ed.
In January, 1916, five months
after the bomb had dropped on
hiroshima, the General Assem-
bly, OF the brand new United
Nations held its first meeting.
Right away it voted to set up
the UN. Atomic Energy Comm
ission to find an answer to this
question;
How to get all nations to agree
to outlaw the bomb in such a
way that no nation could cheat?
That would mean real internal
tional control.
(The United States is willing
10 20 all lIle way Yet IIu VI
it's bombs, outlaw the bomb. and
submit entirely to real interna-
tional control.
PRUSSIA won't submit entirely
to international control. 1t says
the United States has the. plan
rugged to control the worlds a

But that special atomic com

TUCKER

ing to all reports, Governor Don
nelly ranks with his great
predecessors in that office.
BANKER: Almost every Mis-
souri, Governor was Of presiden-
tial caliber, but they missed out
because of hard, political luck
David Francis, William j. Stone,
Herbert Hadley, Arthur NJ. Hyde
Lloyd C. Stark. And that roll
call does not include the brilliant
Jim" Reed, a Senator but
never a Governor.
If Governor Donnelly ranks
with such legendary figures in
Missouri's political folklore, as
all signs suggest, Mr.. Truman
would suffer the humiliation of a
primary defeat for the office
which gave him his chance at
the White House And he knows
it.
