■a the Sir Walter Hotel.
BY J. r BASKERVILL.
Raleigh, July 4. —The State of
North Carolina which is now garden
minded, is soon to become canning
minded. through the cooperation of
the seven radio stations of the State
and the dailies and weeklies of the
State. Beglnniing on July 6, the radio
and the press will combine in the
biggest effort in recent history, with
this aim—to get the people of North
Carolina to put up in cans and jars,
to dry and otherwise save every
pound of food possible, for fall and
winter us in local communities.
Visitors to North Carolina in re
cent weeks have been greatly im
pressed v(|th the .fact .that the Tar
Heel state is plastered with gardens.
Some of our towns and cities are lit
erally honeycombed with gardens;
and the gardens are all larger than
those of last year. In mill commun
ities especially, there are many gar
dens, some on the plots of workers
and others on the community pro
perty of the mills.
The problem now before the state
is one of preserving this food, which
is being raised. And it is the opinion
of men and women, who know the
situation, that, if much food is not
preserved in each local community,
people will not have enough to eat
this coining winter. For relief funds
hav dwindled and, in many places,
have been absolutely used up. In the
abaenca of cash, canoed and otherwise
-preserved feeds are necessary, if
North Carolina is to go through tfie'
winter without widespread suffering.
Backed b ythe governor of North
Carolina and his Council on Unem
ployment and Relief, this radio-news
paper publicity program has been
planned so as to bring to every cit
izen of the state the necessity of pre
siding food. The agricultural forces
of the state are soldily behind the
work. County demonstration agents
in organized counties are bing loan
ed to counties without such workers,
so as to instruct volunteers in the
work of canning, for the great bulk
of canning will have to be carried on
hundred percent Christian family.
Tbe appeal was for family loyalty,
for the strengthening of tbe home
ties, and for standing as a family
unit for the best in life. It was a ser
vice long to be remembered and a
most fitting cloee to a real revival of
religion.—Reported.
—HIMMOW, IN. C. J DAILY DBPXTCH TUESDAY, JULY R, 19M T*
1 dawn streaming through the win
dows of Chicago Stadium, as
I weary delegates perspired and
by volunteers. Vocational agricultural
leaders, welfare workers. Red Cross
chapter officers, school officials, farm
agents, bankers, merchants and oth
ers. too numerous to mention, are
helping in this movement.
The program, to be put on the air,
will be definite and accurate direc
tions on how to can and otherwise
preserve definite articles. The radio
programs will run for three weeks, at
a definite time of the day for each
station, continuously for the three
week period. Newspaper publicity will
contain the major points for the pub
lic to consider. The two —radio and
newspaper—will each serve in its pro
per place. Governor Gardner, in com
menting on the program, said:
"I feel that North Carolina Is awake
to the problem. And I hope that all
of our citizens will extend their ef
forts so that all communities will
preserve just as much food as pos
sible. I know full well that the press
and the radio will help greatly in
stressing the vital need of storing up
food for winter consumption.”
Dr. I. H. Hoyle Is
Made Member of
Board of Health
At its last meeting, the VanCe
County Board of Health elected Dr.
I. H. Hoyle, local dentist, as a mem
ber,^.(M,compliance with the statute
enacted fcy the 1931 General Assem
bly.' It was the first meeting held in
some months, and prior to this step,
Vance is said to have been the only
county in the State in which a dentist
resided where a dentist had not been
elected to the board of health.
In the future. Dr. Hoyle will sit
with the County Board of Health in
its deliberations and consideration of
health problems affecting the county.

Bigg, chairman of the State Board of
Elections, has announced. Usually the
result is announced on the Saturday
after the primary, but as yeeterday
was a holiday, when most county
boards were supposed to canvass their
results, the date was changed.
Official results are not expected to
make any material changes In the un

Reynolds, Asheville attorney and sen
atorial candidate, the largest major

Ehringhaus, of Elizabeth City, and
Major A. L. Fletcher, of Raleigh, are
expected to be declared the winners
of their contests.
Reynolds’ unprecedented victory,
which he scored in defeating the vet

“The next move would be the or
ganization of local committees
throughout the United States to en
force the council’s orders; give direc
tion. in the administration’s interest,
to all mediums of publicity, and brand
as sedition the slighfteet sign of re
sistance or even adverse criticism —
in short, etablih facism.
"How little the public likes the idea
of such a program,” said the senator,
pulling open a drawer in his de„k and
revealing it filled to the brim with
letters and telegrams, “may be judged
from this drawerful of protests against
the possibility of It."
Could not the president accomplish
much the same result, even without
the wartime law, through the setting
up of one of his famous commisions?
“An extm-legal commission,’’ re
joined the senator, “probably would
hardly command the popular support
needed to compel obedience of its
mandates.
“For example, the bankers’ pool of
about a jrear ago was purely a presi
dential suggestion. It gave some
brief promise of serving its purpose,
but as soon_as bankers generally real
ized that it was not compulsory upon
them to enter It. they stayed or drop

to await the formation of the con

mate that fully $500,000 was spent In
the two recent primaries by the va
rious candidates or their friends, both
county and State. In former cam
paigns; it is agreed, expenditures have
frequently besn much greater. Ln the
content for the nomination to a coun
ty office here in Wake county bhly
a few years ago, It Is supposed that
fully >530,000 urns spent ln the in
terest.. of only one candidate.
Because of the excessive cost of the
primary aystanj, it, is believed by
many .that Its abolition would save
the taxpayers of the State fully sl,-
000,000 over a period of ten years, and
that it 4rouid not make necessary the
expenditure of the tremendous sums
of money now required of those who
seek nomination to office. It
is now-readily agreed that no man
of moderate means can run for a
nomination in North Carolina.
But the cost of the primary sys
tem. while tremendous, is by no
means -the chief argument against it,
according to those who have become
so dissatisfied with it. The biggest ob
jection to it is that it really thwarts
the will and power of the people to
select their own candidates. For un
der the primary system, the candi
dates select themselves and the pub
lic gnertolly can only select one from

candidates, it Is pointed out. Instead

minate all the expensive primary ma

and name their delegates to the coun

would then name the- candidates for
county offices. The county convention
would elect their delegates to the
State convention, which In turn would
select the party nominees for State

“If you girls get jammed up. Just
clow your eyes and r<Uli the trigger
of thorn automatics" Holmes told
them half laughingly, half sarcasti
cally. “You might accidently hit
something—unless the guns were on
'safety* a a they probably would be.
Remember the butt of a gun never
hurt anyone."
The sun was Just coming up as wa
went down that path toward the boat
bouse, painting the wide ocean and
those towering spires of ancient Ta
rea with a break of flame.
(TO BK CONTINUED)
It is ndt believed by any one that
all crookedness could be eliminated
by abolishing the primary system,
since there would inevitably be some
elenients that would seek to get con
trol of the conventions. But it is main
tained that it would be more
difficult to control a couk'Yy or State
convention either . .by propaganda,
money, predjudice hr* mud-stinging
Ithan' it would be to fool an electorate
by similar
out that, under.the convention system
|he convention oelects the candidates
instead ofVhte' 'candidates selecting
themselves, and that much mrire at
tention Would be given their witness
ao<t, qualifications than under the pre
sent system.
Jf the primary system actually re
flected the will of the people. It would
be a good thing. It Is agreed. But it
is generally admitted that only a
small portion of the people actually
care or know much about the candi
dates and that they vote carelessly
and without thinking much about the
qualifications of the candidates.
