HOWDY FOLKS:
A friend of ours says that we
should be grateful for luck, but
not silly enough to depend OF it.
On the other hand, some peO-
pie like to combine luck and
pluck. They feel best when
they are lucky enough to find
someone to pluck.
They say a black cat is unlucky,
but when a black cat runs in front
OF a car, and makes it, it's lucky.
Of course there is one class
that's not only out of style
but out of luck now days and
that's Europe's royalty.
Other people think that the
number thirteen is unlucky. 1t
sure is if you have thirteen peo-
pie at a dinner table and you get
stuck with the check.
Sometimes hard luck m
from waiting for a soft snap.
Well, we've been lucky a lot of
times. We're lucky to live in a
good town like this and have such
good friends and customers.
Your 1850 desk calendars will
be in the mail the day after
Christmas. If we miss you
please call at our office.

In MemOrian
MY ROSE


My rose is white, your rose is red; !;
Your mother lives but mine is dead.
And looking on your red, red rose,
Which you wear, ah, so happily
| wish some lucky wind that blows
Would bring my mother back to me,
That | might take her hand again
And press it so tenderly.
| would dry the tears and ease the
pain
That in her life she bore for me.
That change is yours, not mine to-
night
Your rose is red, but mine is white.
Your rose is red and mine is white
And yet when | kneel down tonight
To say my prayers as shadows creep
"Now | lay me down to sleep"
The same sweet prayer | used to
know
And love in days Of long ago
Nv mother will come back to me
My head will rest upon her knee,
Her hand will soothe my furrowed
brow
And | will know, someway, some
how,
Nv mother lives, she is not dead
And my white rose will turn to red.

Finance Corporation could stand a long overdue investigation by Con eress. If the Democrats are smart, they'll start one before someone else beats them to it.
 For years the all-powerIul Jesse Jones kept Congress cut of his hair, even had his account books exempt from inspection by thorough-going Comptroller Gener- al Lindsay Warren. Jesse had too many congressman under obligation to nm through loans to consti- tusnts.
 But TOW even little surface scratching shows that the boys at the top don't entirely know what the REC is doing.
 Take, for instance, the fees col lected by ex-Congressman Frank Hancock in connections with loans to North Carolina firms, which pass through the hands of Ernest How ard chief of the REC Business Loans Division and Hancock's brother-in-law.
 When this column queried REC Director Harvey Gunderson about the matter, he expressed surprise and ignorance. Gunderson, who gives the appearance of wanting to do right. said he had complete confidence in Ernest Howard and was certain he was not being used by his brother -in-law to push loans through the REC.
 Alter considerable hesitation, however. Gunderson consented to ssnd for the North Carolina loans If $100,0G0 or over and see wheth- CT Hancock was the attorney for the loan to the Strickland Furni- ture Co.,, of High Point, N c. It was for lobbying on this loan that Hancock received lush fee, after strickland hitherto had been un- able to get the loan past Han cocks brother-in-law.

HANCOCK'S CAMPAIGN
 MANAGER

Pushing hpzser the REC Di- rector called William Devin and asked him to dug up the North Carolina loans. When Devin brought them back, Hancock's name was not listed as attorney for the strickland Furniture Go.
 Did you know" Gunderson was asked later, that Devin, the man you asked to dig up the informa- ton on Hancock, was formerly IIancock's campaign manager?"
 No, I didn't replied Gunder- son.
 Well, he was. Devin managed Hancock's campaign for the Sen ate against Sen Bob Reynolds in 1888. And he's the man whom you had digging up facts about Han cock"
 GunderSon was also remind-r that though Hancock's name was not listed as attorney for Strickland, nevertheless his fee was okd by the REC. Furthermore, the off cial REC loan contract lists a standby agreement between Strick- and and Hancock, showing that Eancock was owed money by Strickland.
 gunderson also admitted that Jhe average time it takes the REC to grant loan is one month. In contrast, Strickland got the run eround from the REC for about a year-until he hired Hancock, the rrother-in-law of the Business
