O man. what Is good: and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do Justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micah 6 8 WAR S GREAT TOM. Battlefield Itwses are by no means rhe only roll o' -» great war. and grim testimony to the* fact is becoming I evident in China now, according to reports from that unhappy land. Di sease and famine almost invariably follow in the wake of a terrific strag gle between two great powers, and especially in those oounltew where modern sanitation Is not known, and where communication Is so poor as to deny millions of people the abso lute necessities of life. Famine Is no new thing in China, but the condition is accentuated and Intensified by the war that was forc ed upon the people by the Japanem. The rest of the world has not yrt been able to perceive a genuine reason for the misery and suffering that have been inflicted upon the Chines peo ple by superior numbers and more modern fighting equipment. Selfish ness greed. Influence and prestige— these carry ns a long way in finding the answer. And always there stands out clearly above everything else the absence of a conception of [ life that strives for the constructive \ force* that endure and for the hap piness and well being of the people. Japa n 1* lacking in that perspective. ! She brought war to the Chinese j shores, and war has seen to It that famine and disease stalked in its wake. One result of the SimvJapanese draggle arour.d Shanghai is the death, the famir e. the disease it has produced—and all for no good and no legitimate gain to any one. It Is but a part of war's great toll. And 41 Rhrld that considers itself clviMeed alWirs a thing like that to go on. STRIKING AT BEDROCK Land Is the basts of all wealth. Erem it. In the final analysis, comes all that is produced. When its values are depressed. there is depression • elsewhere. That is what we are ex periencing now And that is why Governor Gardner, the bankers and others are undertaking a campaign whose objective Is to popularize again she lands of the State, to the end ■ that the cycle of prosperity may again be headed upward. Land is one thing that cannot run away nor be .stolen. It Is fixed and • tfabte at least physically. All over North Carolina there are today real ! properties that are going begging, : which may be had for a song; which are dirt cheap and yet just as capable 1 or productivity as they ever were. This land, if acquired now and put ! to good use, will come again into its j own; make no mistake about that. There are a few me,, of foresight j and keen vision who realize that this is true, and who can see the logic in Governor Gardner's appeal to the com monwealth in behalf of these real values. They are taking advantage of the situation, and they will be the men of wealth in the days to come. Any man who ever expects to own a homo or a farm will never again have the opportunity that offers itself to day to achieve that ambition, provid ed he has the means now to acquire it. The trouble is that many who would do it are unable to do tt, and because there are so many in that class the thing Is cheap. But there are many who can take real estate aftd develop it now and help In thie I way to restore prosperity. Th»- movement is altogether worlb | While. There is enmirfK reservg pow er in North Carolina to put ttds ehnfi palgn over. The thing that Is most ■ needed is a vis l on to push out and ahead.

C.J DAILY DISPATCH* WEDNESDAY, MARCUS 198* ' IS *1 jam£s*asweuTl l By Central Prows New York. March 23—When In Manhattan— It Is coruddered proper for gentle men to remove their hats when trav eling M elevators of apartment buMd logs containind ladies, but head gear remains in place during the ascensions of of fice building lifts. Which raises the fine point of what to do when going up or down in a structure which contains both offices and private apartments. Ten per cent of the check is con sidered a snifficertf tip for waiters, who often draw no salaries, but even pay for their Jobe, while the honorarium for hwt-check girls and cigarette ven ders Is frequently from 80 to 100 per cent —and the latter must in almost every case, turn over all gifts to the boss! In a bus or a surface ear gentlemen often surrender their seats to old ladies with bundles or to young ladies with looks—bu* anyone doing the same on a subway during the rush hour is glanced at by other comimin ters as something of a sap. Taxi drivers contribute from 25 to 50 cents apiece weekly lo doormen of fashionable apartments for the privi lege of remaining In line, ready for calls, near the entrance. A portal flunky in the old days used to total SIO,OOO a year from all sources if he had a good location; now he must be content with $3 600 to $5,000, or only a liitle more than most of the tenants of :he building he guards make. Chinese restaurants, even those in the most native part of Chinatown, are the most moral establishments in the world. Although they are fre quented. during the soon hour In the business districts, by young working girls hungry fov romance, a gentle man who dares to speak to a lady with whom he did not enter the place chances almost certain ousting. In one such dine-and-dance hall a few years ago a friend of mine was escort ed to the door by two slant-eyed wait ers for shouting "Hello, Kit!” to Katharine Cornell across several tables—and he had known her weli for 16 years! It is considered very bad taste for patrons of the theatre to talk loudly and make spectacles of themselves— to be what used to be referred to as "common''—unless they have on even ing attire and are attending a "first night," Then anything goes. " HOP, SKIP AND JUMP Then there was the case of tihe gnnsler who had to pawn his gun due to depression conditions in the in dustry... The mystery-novel manufac turers work ceaselessly, and their out put dwarfs in quantity all other ldte rriry production.. .Yet when .someone stated that the word most frequently appearing in book titles was "mur der,’’ he was wrong.. ."The" beats murder out by several thousands, if you want to fudge a bit and count the article; but my own tabulators also insist that ‘ myrtery" tops “mur der” too —borne out by a census of the volumes in a nearby store.... Incidentally, scores of British mys tery stories appear every week with out the inclusion of the word “blood” cnee. even...quite an achievement for a crime yarn... The English are very touchy about the noun, even when it : s not the slang adjective derivative which appals them to terribly. Gene, of Giene and Glenn, the ether team, contrast so strikingly—Gene be ing very tall, very thin, Glenn very 'short, very plurmp—4/hat they blush to be seen together. After a raid the other night on a fashionable speakeasy, the ice box of the club was opened and hurrdfetto of dollars worth of perishable foods went to the poor of the neighbor hood... A friend who live*; in the dis trict tells me that deAkute families were amazed to be handed platters heaped with costly Russian caviar and choice cuts of steak and chops... One elderly unfortunate took an immense helping of pate dp fois gras to a cor ner and there devoured it wis a slow, reminiscent smile of better days... Democracy has fulfilled many of Its pledges.

The club was started first as a purely .local organization for Raleigh and Wake county, but at Grissom’s suggestion, has been ex panded into a Statewide organization. Each person who becomes a mem ber of this club must sign a pledge to work for the renomination of Herbert Hoover as the Republican nominee for president and to seek his re-election. Each member must also agree to seek other members and is supplied with blank pledges to be filled out and turned back to State headquarters when filled with names. Nothing in either the letter being sent out to pros pective members or in the pledge it self says anything about any financial pledges. But It is admitted this is like ly to follow later. People generalyy have more fluency in condemning than approving. Nothing so much destroys our peace of mtnd, as to hear another express an intention to give us a piece of his.
