A sure hit with a Miss is the
latest in sports shirts, which at
long last combines all the fea-
lures men have been seeking.
Rich, washable rayon gabardlne
fabrics in a wide assortment OF
colors, exact collar and sleeve
sizes to assure perfect fit and
comfort, saddle stitched collar
and pocket flaps for that extra,
nice appearance and, last but not
least, the new Arafold collar that
permits a sports shirt to look
really good when worn with tie.
Thanks to the built-in tie space
formed by permanent fold line

IN the collar, this new type OF
construction does away entirely
with the wrinkling and punching
up that usually results when a
tie is worn with an ordinary
sports shirt.
With all these features, pre-
cision-built for style and COM
fort, it's only natural that these
famous Gabanaro sports shirts,
styled by Arrow, have become the
most popular garments of their
kind all over the country. Style
conscious-women, too, appreciate
their good looks.

Observation-Disclosures?

Plymouth, N. c.

PlymOuCn, N. VI
A poll, taken not so long ago, in
dicated that few American parents
want their sons to go into politics,
expressing the belief that "a politi-
cal career leads to graft and crook
edness."
This is dangerous sign for a
democracy which depends, for its
efficient operation, upon the will
ingness of it's citizens to offer their
services in governmental capa-
city for the benefit of society, as a
whole.
1t should be perfectly obvious
that parents with such a complex
are attempting to blame the politi-
clans for some of the shortcomings
of the citizens of this country. 1t
might be well for them to remem-
ber- that neither the government
nor the people. who serve as gov
ernmental officials, can be more
than the people expect and sup
port. ~
Moreover, a democratic govern
ment, in its attempt TO reconcile
antagonistic interests, can crlv
function through intelligent and
public-spirited politicians. Much Of

SALARIES OF PUBLIC SERVANTS.

We have always thought that public servants should be
encouraged to do their best being paid much they
would for like service and like ability in private
ployment We think the public will not be best served by
ployng underpaid men, who willing to work for
insufficient salary.
On the other hand we think that public servants who
take it themselves to the public and in so doing
pledge their earnest efforts to protect the public interest
should not be satisfied unless they give to their jobs
full of service and interest that would be
pected of them in private employment In fact that
working for his country his town his county, should
be proud to do for the public since great

OTHER EDITORS
SMITH IS RIGHT

Elizabeth City independently

1t is good to see staunch Demo-
cratic leaders like Senator Willis
Smith and others who are for the
real Democratic party, standing
up on their hind legs and calling
for the defeat of Harry S. Tru-
man as head of the Democratic
party.
These men are in Washington,
and they can see and know first
hand what is going on. They are
among the few who have not fall
len for the cunning wiles of the
so-called Democrats in power, and
have not been sucked in the
scheme of Truman and Company
to enslave the whole nation with
their rotten, corrupt and thor
oughly dishonorable practices of
incompetence and intrigue.
Our party has become infested
with political sap-suckers and
panhandlers," said Senator Smith
in Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner
at Richmond recently. Those were
the words of a gentleman, who
still wanted to be courteous. We
would have put it another way.
We would have said that our
party has become infested with a,
horde of thieving, conniving
crooks, who have used the trust
of the people who put them in of
flee to create special privileges
and licenses for themselves to
steal, pilfer and malign the Ameri-
can people to their hearts con-
tent. They have no conscience nor
morals. They have only one aim,
to get rich in money and powerful
in authority at the expense of the
American people. They spent tax
dollars like water to create poll
teal jobs and special privileges
for their own personal political
and financial aid. They have abso-
lutely no scruples nor principles.
1t is grab-bag affair with every
one seeing who can get the most
and Little Taxpayer be damned.
1t is time that Southerners rea-
lized the scheme in which they are
being used by those in power in
the administration to further en-
trench themselves in power. All
because a Southerner won't vote
anything but a Democratic ticket.
So-called Northern Democrats
and a Missouri Jackass without
the customary tail (the one that
switches flies) have ignored and
insulted the Southern Democrats
because they believe the South
erners will go along with the
Democratic party regardless. They
don't have to pay any attention to
the Southerners, because we are
going to vote Democratic anyway.
That's the way they look upon US
AS herd of sheep that will fol-
low any sort of leadership that is
thrown in front of us.
And so it is encouraging to see
men like Willis Smith and other
Southern Democrats calling for
the ousting of Truman and his
cronies, who have already MIXED
the country dry in more ways
than one.
We have stuck to the party
long enough for the sake of the
party. We no longer have Demo-
cratic party, and only by buck
ing the national gangsters in
Washington can we regain our
party and put it back on respects
full basis.
The fighting should be done
now, before the national party
convention when a presidential
candidate will be nominated. If
we have Truman showed down our
threats again as the party's nomi-
nee then we should split from the
national Democratic" party and
start rebuilding our Southern
democratic party-the true Dem
ocratic party.
