AL'S RACE IS BUMPY
1
IN "SOLID SOUTH'
By ART SHITLDS, Fed. Press
Ashvielle, N. C.—North Caroline
and Tennessee are rough places for
A1 Smith's race for the White House.
His chances in the two states are very
much "in the bag" as the sporting
writcis would say. It's anybody's
guess as to who will win the 24 elec
toral votes of this part of the once
Solid South.
John W. Davis beat Coolidge in
Tennessee four yeais ago by 158,404
to 130,882, and .in North Carolina had
284,272 to Cal's 191,763 votes. But
the dope for 1924 is out of date in
this topsy turvy campaign when two
new propaganda elements, the liquor
issue and religious prejudice, fill the
air with smoke and steam.
White corn liquor is available for
all who want it at one dollar a pint,
hut the Volstead act is a vote winner
in the South, and Al's wetness hurts
him in Dixie though il may help him
in New Jersey and New York. Still
more enmity is being mustered by
country preachers and others because
of his Roman Catholic affiliations,
though the average Southerner has
raiely met a Catholic.
Never since Reconstruction days
has th edcmociacy been so divided in
th enear South. Senator Simmons'
desertion of the party standard bear
er was a serious blow to Smith, for
Simmons, the darling of the water
power interests, also has a large fol
lowing in the rural sections which he
won a generation ago when he went
into leadership on an anti-negro plat
form. His recent denunciation of
Smith got the approval of the Win
ston Salem Journal and the Charlotte
Observer, leading dailies reflecting
the tobacco and textile interests in
the two largest towns in North Caro
lina.
True enough, some of the water
power politicians are supporting Al,
but that is just one of the many con
tradictions in a veiy contradictory
campaign. One such suppoiter is O.
Max Gardner, democratic candidate
for governor and a cotton mill presi
dentr and power company booster. He
Ls not aiding Smith moie than is nec
esesary to preserve his party regular
ity, and he will take a couple of days
from the campaign October 8 and 9
to speak at the Appalachian Power
Conference in Atlanta, ale g with
public utility her»!, uiul cth • south
tMn politicians.
Labor itself is divided in this con
fusing campaign. In Tennessee Ma
or George L. Berry. Smith's labor
attache, was able to get W. C. Bnth
right, secretary of the state fede
ra
tion, as his Tennessee .labor commit
teeman. But in North Carolina the
federation heads refused to serve, and
the Raleigh Union Herald, a privately
owned labor paper which has the en
dorsement of
rUn several anti-Smith articles,

In making the biennial report to
the state department of education we

in 1927-28, a gain of 37,067 days.
There was an average daily attend
ance of 2,386 pupils in 1926 and 2,631
pupils in 1928—an aveiage increase
m daily attendance of 144 pupils.
Per cent; of attendance has risen from
J4.8 to 96.3. Even with an increased
enrollment the totàl days of absence

f- lbls forecast, however, stfll al
lows for an average amount of im
provement or deterioration so that
mal harvest may be larger or small
er than new estimated. Adding to
spring wheat the preliminary esti
mate °f winter wheat of 12150,000
bushels brings the state total for all
wheat on Sept. 1 to 72.406,000 bush
els compared with 73,735,000 bushels
forecasted a month ago and the 1927
crop of 80,208,000 bushels.
FI AX: Frost damage fco green
flax occurred at scattered points dur
ing the latter part of August in the
northern and eastern part of Mon
tana where the bulk of the crop is
grown. Damage, doubtless, would
have been more pronounced had the
cron not been so well advanced. The
September 1 estimate of the flax
crop based on a condition of 82^ of a
normal points to 2.236.000 bushels
compared with 2.647 000 hnshote o
month aor 0 and the 1927 cron of 0 -
438,000 bushels. Acreage for 1928
will be about 20 % larger than lost
year.
OATS: The oats crop declined

■"'eather damaged some of the
oats
