THE DEMOCRATIC PROGRAM
Democrats like to hold their bien
nial convention in Raleigh, and there
appears to be as much unanimity of
purpose on the port of the &toie Ex
ecutive Committee as there ever was
in selecting the outfit* 1 city arisen
they met last night for the purpose of
making & choice. The committee act
ed wisely also in postponing the con
vention until after the primary of
June 4. and for many reasons.
With the convention following the
primary, and with the party's nomi
nee for governor probably known by
(hat time, the ill effects of demon
strations for this man or (hat will be
avoided. The convention manage
ment cannot then be accused of play
ing Into the hands of a particular as
pirant for the governorship. But aU
hands can then rally around the ban
ner of the primary winner and ac
cord him a great send-off as the elec
tion campaign proper actually gets
under way.
Another incentive for going back to
fealeigh this year was the desire to
see and inspect the handsome new
auditorium the city is building, fol
lowing the burning of o2d one last
year. That famous structure was the
scene of many hot contests of a poli
tical nature, and it had memories
for the party. The new building like
wise is destined to become a meoea
through the years for partisans In
their biennial meetings, and the Demo
cratic convention will christen It thfa
year.
THE LINDBERGH BABY
A nation, and for aught we know, a
world, was agog today over Ihe kid
r.aping last nignt of the 20-xaonttw
r»on of Colonel and Mrs. Cteries
Lindbergh t®e moat famous baby
In Christendom. Prominent children
have been known to meet a cruel fate
despite the popularity of their parents,
and this Instance may, of course, be
another of that kind, but the chances
are the ch<ld will be returned to his
mother’s arms unhurt and unharmed,
and without the huge ransom de
manded being paid over. The kidnap
ers made the superlative blunder of
getting a baby that Is too well known
and too popular for them to get away
with their damnable purpose.
News stories said the infant was
sick, which might mean that he was
teething, being at about the age for
that. That in itself might not be ao
terribly (serious a.n ailment, but it
could easily become eerioua If the
child fell into inexperienced hands and j
its diet changed from what 4t had
been accustomed to. Therein Use the
greatest danger to the (toy bundle of
humanity being returned to Ka home
in good condition.
Whoever the kidnapers may be. they
undoubtedly had counted the cost of a 1
mistake in making their getaway. •
They knew, of course, that they were
playing with dynamite In handling
one so prominent throughout the na
tion. They must know, too_ that
everywhere a strange balky appears
1* will be given the closest scrutiny,
because before breakfast tb4o morning
the whole country knew of what had
happened. Their plans must have
been perfected in the mlnuteM detail
and apparently have been executed ta
they had hoped. Nearty a day Boar
has passed and there Is tat the slight
est trace of the criminals, an far as
has been made known.
This catastrophe, which has reached
into the deep recesses of the Lind
bergh retreat New Jersey to strike
HPJW to the souls of tfce fa— net frier
tad Ads jrouag wife, Was aatabad lota
of them, aa It would any parents
wwtay of tae m—e. The beldse—
Mat made him dare the deeps of the
dark Atlantic Are year* ago was gone
ta the affection of a mt—lng chDd
tugged at Ms heart etMngs. And how
could It be otherwise?
TMys may pa— before the criminal*
become fearful of thetr own acts and
drop the baby somewhere for R to be
returned to its parents, but in this in
stance. with the wbote country peel
ing Its eyes, the proapaols are bright
for the child's aafe return to ttm home, i
But for the anxious father and moth
er the hours wtii be days and the day*
wilt be weeks of painful waiting and
searching.

This is a position for freedom and
action, res tie as under restraint, and
free in the expression of opinion. You
aje adventurous and have a contempt
for danger. The pursuit of literature,
especially through travel or the broad
view of Use, will be successful, and
good fortune may also be found in
the law. You are a tittle too impulsive
but sympathetic and affectionate.

This, perhaps, Is as difficult to do aa
anything else In the life of faith The
moments of high revelation, end the
hours of deep spiritual abiding come
and go. Between whiles, a painful
sag is likely to be experienced. Yet
if we are to keep the Radiance of our
religion, we must learn to “continue
steadfastly’’ through such moods; and
this may be accomplished by having
some very concrete, or even common
place, occupation by means of which
to express our faith along the tower
altitudes. The quickened faith needs
at times certain every-day and mund
ane assistance in order to maintain
its warcnf&h and its vitality. It is
good for faith to be allied with the
plain facts of earthly existence.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, we prey
that our faith may be kept strong by
contact, with hum We and ordinary af
fairs. May we not think that our de
votion to Thee should cause us to be
unfaithful to the common tasks. Let
us. through Thy Spirit, hold ourselves
responsible to Thee for the right con
duct of our lives in every realm, so
that our prayers and our dealings
with this world may be joined in a
single devotion to Jeaue Christ our
Lord. Amen.
