his name ON the ballot without
regard to party affiliation, and
without having to secure a petit
ton from representative citizens.
The Raleigh man followed up
his telephone conversation with
The Times by a telegram quot
ing that part of Lincolnton's
charter relating to the selection
of municipal candidates.
BOARD REQUEST
All this came after the Lincoln
ton Board of Aldermen had asked
the county delegation in the Gen
eral Assembly to press for passage
of a local bill which would au-
thorize Lincolnton election proce-
dure on a convention" basis.
Such conventions to select De-
mocrat and Republican munich
pal candidates have been the ac-
cepted procedure here for years,
but there never has been any pro-
vision in the towns charter for
such a system. The Board of AID
ermen last week asked State
Senator w. E. Garrison and State
Representative David Clark to Sc
cure passage of a local bill which
would amend the Lincolnton
charter to make the convention
system the lawful manner of cam
didate selection. Sen. Garrison

PARTY Conventions And
Candidate Selections

and Rep. Clark are deferring in
production of such a bill, waiting
to get the sentiment of the local
voting public for or against such
a proposal.
The proposed bill also would
hike the pay OF aldermen from
$3.50 to $3.50 a year and that of
the mayor from S400 to $3.50. 1t
would extend aldermen'S terms
two to four years, and change the
deadline for candidate filing from
midnight to noon of the final
day set aside for that purpose.
WHAT LAW SAYS
In his telegram to The Times
today, the state official quoted
Section Two, Chapter 153, Pri-
vate Laws of North Carolina
tas amended in 193I, as fol-
lows:
Candidates for election to
office in the Town of Lincoln
ton shall duly file under their
respective hands a notice of
their candidacy and for what
office with the City Clerk or
clerk to the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen of the Town of
LincOlntOn, on or before the
third Monday in April next
preceding the election to be
held on the first Tuesday after
the first Monday in May.
The Clerk is required to
print ballots setting forth the
names of all candidates COM
PLYING WITH THIS RE
QUIREMENT AND NO 9TH
ERS. and such ballots shall be
the only ballots used in the
election of city officials"
Thus. it would appear. from
conversation with the Raleigh Of
fetal, and from a reading OF the
town charter. that Lincolnton is
ir a class with other surround
ing towns in that party endorse
ment is no requisite for munich
pal candidacy; and that any qua
lifted voter might file with the
Town Clerk and have his name
entered on the election ballot.
A survey of surrounding towns
conducted by The Times last
week revealed that in no Other
towns Of the area does partisan
politics play part-including
Newton, Shelby, Kings Mountain
Mooresville. BeSSemer City Gas
tonia and Charlotte.
CUSTOM, NOT LAW
For long years, it has been a
custom to select states of party
candidates by convention in Lin
colnton. but it has been a Gus
tom rather than a legal re-
Quirement for candidacy. How
ever. there have been instance:
where some candidates. Wert
summarily rejected because either
the would be a n d i d t
failed to obtain party endorse
ment in convention, or did no
secure names of 20 per cent o
the qualified voters on petition
asking that his name be PLACED
on the ballot.
Lately, there has been grow
ing sentiment here for discard
ing the convention and party
aspect in local elections, and
proponents of the let-everyOne-
who desires file system were
taking encouragement today
from the new information from
Raleigh in this regard.

MRS. EVANS STATEMENT
Mrs. Miriam Libby Evans, ma

of Prayer, in announcing plans for
the 1855 observance said it is hop
ed that "the sense of personal
mission of each one of us who
prays and who gives will be eX-
pressed throughout the rest OF the
year in the many opportunities for
service to our churches. to our
communities and to the strangers
in our communities who wait for
our understanding and an invita-
ton of welcome in our churches
and our homes. Thus the kingdom
of heaven on earth for which we
pray comes closer"

verse and forever prevent man
from seeing the center of his
own minute system of stars.
Stars Burning Out
Population I stars are found
in the spiral arms of galaxies
like the Milky Way. They are
imbedded in dust. They are
characterized chiefly by gigan-
tic blue stars. obviously ex-
tremely hot and burning out
rapidly.
The picture deduced from all
this is that something momen-
tous and as yet inexplicable
happened about five billion years
ago when. presumably in a very
short time. the scattered dust.
atoms and molecules of space
were concentrated into stars.
But from this original crea-
ton an enormous amount of dust
was left over. This began con-
centrating, by slow process
which goes on today. into new
stars. There still is a lot of
dust left. and other stars are
being born.

Segregation Issue
DELAYS Park Plans

RICHMOND, April % (P).-A
100000 improvement program
for Virginia's State parks has
been deferred pending settlement
of racial segregation problems
involving the parks, Raymond
Long, State conservation direc-
tor, revealed today.
Mr.. Long said his department
certainly is not pressing" for
capital outlay funds for the
parks at present, and will not
do SO until the segregation issue
is cleared up.
Money to improve the parks
was included in a $4,000 cap
ital outlay request submitted by
the department to the State
Capital Outlay Commission sew
eral months ago.
Mr.. Long said the parks re-
quest has not been withdrawn
or abandoned. but merely put
on ice" until the parks future
has become clear.

High Winds Sweep
Mid-U. S. Areas
BY the Associated Press

Thunderstorms, some, severe,
swept wide areas of the mid
continent during the night and
early today. Tornado winds
whipped some sections in Ne
braska, Oklahoma and Kansas.
The stormy weather extended
from Minnesota and the Eastern
Dakotas southwark to the West
ern Gulf of Mexico.
A small tornado hit a farm
area near Rokeby, Nebr., south
east of Lincoln, late last night,
but no injuries were reported.
Several tornado tunnels were re-
ported in South Central Kansas
and Northern Oklahoma. Some
farm buildings were damaged.
One person was injured in Ok
lahoma. which was hit by hail
and rain.
The storm moved into the mid
continent after high winds
dashed Wyoming and Eastern
Colorado yesterday. Several
highways east of Denver were
closed several hours because of
severe blowing dust. One person
was killed when a gust of wind
tossed his car against a tele-
phone pole.

injected in the arm, and had
contracted paralysis in the same
arm. The Chicago child, he said,
received the shot in the hip and
was paralyzed in the lower
limbs.
This factor, DR.. Van Ripper
said, does not prove anything
about the Cutter vaccine. Any
kind of infection could cause
the same effect, he said.
Scheele Backs Program
Surgeon General Leonard A.
Scheele of the Public Health
Service called for continuance of
the school program. In a state
ment yesterday he said:
I'VE believe that the immuni-
cation program against polio
should continue and I urge that
parents and children scheduled
to take part in the vaccination
program continue to follow their
plans
He added his own 7-year-old
son will receive his first shot as
scheduled.
DR.. Scheele also stated:
THE Public Health Service
does not feel that there is any
reason to challenge the effective
ness of the Salk polio vaccine or
the validity of the immunlzation
programs throughout the coun-
try :.
81. 1t should be remembered
that the vaccine was judged to
be from so tos9O per cent effec-
tive. 1t is possible that the chill
dren who contracted the disease
fell into that percentage for
whom protection would not be
achieved. I want to make it clear
that this action does not nee
essarily mean that the product
Of the laboratory is faulty 1t is
a precautionary measure taken to
protect children of the Nation"
