Shown In Matches; Games'
Are Interesting
To the Wall Street Bears falls the
'task of handling the league leading
Kiwanls basebali club their first de
feat of the second half of the City
League this afternoon at League Park.
If they are successful, the Page-Ho
cutt Twins and the leaders will be in
a Ue for the top position and if they
fail, the Lions must meet the leadets
on nexxt Tuesday to play a postponed
game.
Adding to the list of ”ifs” the' M
E. s if they should win over the
TNwlns .the iKwanians would have full
sway of the league and no team could
force them out of the loop lead.
Anyway this last wek of play will have
important bearings of the finish of the
loop and the prospects are good for
a n upset of the dope bucket.
Just as soon as the regular season’s
play has been completed, the post
season series bettMeen the M. P.
Baraces, first half winners and the
winners of the second half, will get
under way. ome fast baseball will
probably be shown during the series
playoff and a good crowd is exxpected
to attend, judging from Uhe interest

REYNOLDS NOT IN
ANY DANGER FROM
THE REPUBLICANS
(Continued from Page One.)
nearer leading the Democratic ticket
this fall than will J C. B- Ehrlnghaus,
the emocratic nominee for governor.
Those who are still unfriendly to
Reynolds and who seem to regret his
nomination, .are asking whether Rey
nold.-S ban achieve tilt popularity over
the State this'fall that he won during
the primary. They point to-the very
brief* speech he made at the meeting
of the State Democratic Executive
Committee here several weeks ago,
which is generally conceded to have
been one of the poorest speeches Rey
nolds has ever made, and maintain
tha he must do better than that if he
expects to win the election this fall.
These critics of Reynolds maintain
that he must now achieve a higher
plane as a speaker, si tree from now
on he will have to be compared with
Senator J. W. Bailey, with Clyde Hoey,
Governor O. Max Gardner and others
in the State who have won renown as
real political orators. For he is now
a candidate and not just an individual
seeking a nomination.
Reynolds’ friends are not worried in
the least, however, and maintain that
just as “Our Bob’’ has been able to
raise to the occasion in the past, so
will he be able to cope with any sit
uation that may arise in the cam
paign this fall. They confidently be
lieve that Reynolds will definitely
show the people of the State in the
campaign this fall that he is in every
respect entirely capable to represent
North Carolina in the United States
Senate and that he can hold his own
on the campaign platform with any
one. They agree that in the primary
Reynolds may have appeared to have
been something of the clown and
harum scarum play boy, largely be
cause the circumstances demanded it.
He had to do some of the things he
did in order to get the crowds and put
himself before the people, they say.
But now that Reynolds is the official
candidate of the Democratic party for
the Senate, he will throw off the clown
ishness and pranks exhibited in the
pre-primary campaigns and show the
people of the State that he is capable
of serious and mature thought upon
the real questions of the day.
Few, if any, observers here believe
that his stand with regard to prohibi
tion will embarrass him In any way
this fall, since his position is now in
perfect harmony with the national
Democratic platform as well as with
the State platform. It is now generally
agreed that Reynolds’ stand on pro
hibition played a much smaller part
in his defeat of Senator Morrison than
was at first apparent. It was the feel
ing of general dissatisfaction with
Morrison because of his—or hi 3 wife’s
—money, his vote to seat McNlnch on
the Federal Power Commission and
his lauding of the Duke Power Com
pany as an "almost philanthropical
institution" that defeated Morrison
rather than Reynolds’ stand on* pro
hibition. it is now generally agreed. In
fact, most people now believe that
Reynolds would have defeated
ru>on without having mentioned , pro
hibition, much as Joeiah WMliam
Bailey defeated Senator F. M. »Sim
mons Without making a speech. In the
Builey-Simmons campaign the people
were more anti-SUnmoris than - pro-
Bailey. In this last campaign theJbulk
of the--voters were also more ’antl-
Morrison than pro-Reynolds.
Thi nesult expected in the campaign
this fail is a sweeping victory forißey
nolds over his Republican-—and i|ry -
opponent. Jake Newell, of Charlotte,
because Reynolds is the Democratic
candidate and because more Demo
crats are going to stick by the Demo
cratic ticket this year from top to
bottom, than ever before. What few
objections were raised to Reynolds
during the primary campaigns are
going to be forgotten except by a
very few bone-dry Democrats who
may vote for Newel). But these are
expected to b every few.
SAYS DRY FORCES
FAR FROM BEATEN
IN UNITED STATES
(Continued from page One.)
It recalls perfectly tnat the dry vote
cast separately, was negligible in pre
war days, has no idea that It can
score more tellingly now than at tha
time; fully realizes the undesirabili*
of revealing its probable weakness, as
an independent factor.
The virtual abandonment of prohi
bition as a national issue is, then a
considered policy.
Unquestionably the diy high com
mand would prefer to keep the White
House under its thumb. For practical
purposes, however, it deems Itself rea
sonably safe while it retains congres
sional control, and that is what it i?
concentrating on.
The truth is that he drys are in a
sronger position than enthusiastic
wets art inclined to give thtm credit
for occupying.
The wets, to, accomplish much, not
only must win. but they must win
by a veiy liberal margin. The drys
know it. and are less discouraged than
one might imagine from recent evi
dences of a decidedly wet trend in
public opinion.
Everyone already understands, of
course, that two-thirds of the sena
tors and representatives will be need
ed to send the eighteenth amendment
to the states for repeal, modification
-or, mayhap, reaffirmation.
Drys do not believe that this requir
ed two-thirds will be available.
They concede that the populous wet
states may provide the necessary num
ber of representatives, but they think
(hat the smaller dry states will be
able to block the dry program with
their senators.
Granting that they are wrong—that
the amendment is resubmitted—there
then will begin the fight to get re
peal or modification ratified by at
least 36 of the commonwealths.

Even the wet* admit that thla will
be difficult In all probability. Thar
are confident of approximately J 3
states, but the remaining three, to
cinch the matter, worry them.
The wet*, strategy will be to hasten
action—ls they can—by attacking the
Volstead law.
It seems likely that the next session
of congress—or almost certainly the
succeeding one—will vote beer of a
higher alcoholic content than at pre
sent. A bare majority—not necessarily
two-thirds —can change the Volstead
act
The presumption is that Franklin D.
Roosevelt, if president, would o. k.
light beer, as “non-intoxicating in
fact." but the average guess is thgt
President Hoover would veto It, In
which event a two-thirds majority
would be essential to over-ride hi*
veto.
The supreme court’s view also would
have to be reckoned with.
Most folk surmise that the tribunal
of last resort would indorse beer, may
be up to 4 or 5 per cent, but. above
that, that it would pronounob the
proposed beverage "obviously Intoxi
cating"—therefore unconstitutional.
To be sure, congress could, by a
simple majority, repeal the Ve’stead
law si i go*her, leaving the eighteenth
amendment with nothing to enforce it.
Some frw senators a i1 representa
tives declare themselves favorable to
this course, as a last resort, but most
of them have such a horror of
fication" that it is highly doubtful that
a majority could be secured. Provid
ed it could, even Mr. Roosevelt, to a
practical certainty, would veto it; Mr.
Hoover to an absolute certainty. Then
to make th« plan effective, two-thirds
would be indispensable and a two
thirds vote for so-called "nullifica
tion" is unimaginable .
PATROL IS LEGALLY
IN STRIKE REGIONS
(Continued from Page One.)
assign the State Highway Patrol to
any law enforcement duty he may see
fit under the authority given him in
th« Constitution," one of the States
legal authorities said today. "The
statute creating the patrol also gives
the patrolmen the status of peace of
ficers as well as making it their pri
mary duty to enforce all motor vehicle
laws and "all laws for the protection
of the highways of the State.” Hence
they are still acting in the direct line
of their duty."
It is pointed out here that the pa
trolmen now in Thomasville and Rock
ingham are in no sense guarding mills
or bothering strikers, but only carry
ing on their regular duties. Should
any of the strikers attempt to block
traffic or prevent the movement of
traffic over any of the streets or high
ways, the patrolmen would at once
have authority to make arrests or take
any measures to keep the streets and
highways open. Or if rioting or dis
order should break out. it would be
their duty as peace officers to coop
erate with the local peace officers tp
put down any disorder. But they in
no sense supercede the authority of
the local peace officers or of the local
sheriffs. In fact, in order to assist the
sheriffs, the highway patrolmen must
be deputized by the sheriffs.
It is well known here that Governor
Gardner does not favor thfe calling out
of troops in connection with strikes,
although he has done it in a few cases,
though very reluctantly. For most
the National Guard companies areft
composed of youngsters who have haqT
little or no police experience and
whose youth make them lacking in
judgment, especially when emergencies
arise. The cost of calling out even on*
company of National Guard troops
and keeping it on duty is also very
expensive.
On the other hand, the members oJJ .
the highway .patrol -are
officers, all highly discipffned and nqt
ed for their efficiency. Most of tjidKn
have seen army service, many as of
ficers. All the patrolmen have been
given Intensive training and have had
to pass severe examinations before
qualifying as patrolmen. Thus the pa
trolmen are conceded to be the State’s
best drilled and most intelligent police
officers. It has also been demonstrat
ed that one good officer on a motor
cycle is as efficient as a dozen militia
men on foot and worth more in an
emergency than a flock of local cit
izens deputized as special officers.
Because of these factors. Governor
Gardner readily admits that he re
gards the highway patrolmen as being
much better able to handle emergency
law enforcement problems than any
others and less likely to stir up dis
orders, because they are disciplined
and have been trained to think and
to use force only as a last resort.
