Know the Man
It is essential that a nation know the

that the problem he has to face be
brought out in bold relief, clarified,
told in the simplest manner, so that
every person can understand.

' Coal production' in the United

“The first month since the depres

Textile mills of the district consum

1931. 1
Retail trade in departent stores in
Novcimiber was “relatiMely” better
than in October and wholesale trade
was up to the seasonal level in most
lines as compared with recent months
A slight drop in batik deposits was
noted and debts to individual accounts

ctompared with the preceding five
weeks, ended November 9. when usu

Employment showed no improve

there was some slight seasonal rise in
unemployment, “chiefly as a result of
inclement weather.”
Tfobaeco markets sold much less
weed in November than in the saime
month a year ago. Prices paid grow

faded by a president of the United
States. Is hfe a forward-looking man,
or will he cling to the past until there
is no future? ;
Mr. Robsevelt is a comparatively
ydnng man. He is only 51. His
mind is not clogged up with the past. ,
iMJr. Roosevelt realizes the faith
placed in him. In a remarkably frank
article written by him for Cosmopoli-i
tan fnagazine he says to the people of
the United States:
“Your news national leadership is
going to restore the confidence that
the majority of men and women in
this country rightfully repose i n their
OWn integrity and ability. It is go
frig to bring about governmental ac
tion to mesh more with the rights.4tnd
the essential needs of the individual
man and wettnan. It is going to bring
about a greater personal security.
Battle Orders
These are not merely hopes. These
are the battle orders imposed Upon
myself and my party . . .
“The new natonal leadership has al
ready faced the facts in its economic
campaign upon your major problems.
It is going to continue to tell the truth
about current conditions and their re
lation to the future —A policy not
pursued in immediate past history.’.’
There is the acceptance of the
gauge.
What is the truth? What hopes may
we hold? How shall we lay o'tir
course now? What is the road out?
Beginning tomorrow, in a series of
“thumbnail” sketches, th e problems
Mr. Roosevelt faces will be clarified.

Help Unemployed
Search For Gold

BY J- r BAsftKKVILt.
Raleigh, Dec. 31—1A new form of
unerfip loy rhe nt relief which he believes
wifi be a sound investment is suggest
ed by State Geologist It. J. Bryson.
This is some form of "grubstaking”
miners seeking to develop gold deposits
in North Carolina. This would not
only furnish work for many of the
State’s unemployed, but would also
aid in investigating more thoroughly j
deposits of the precious Anfetal and ■
would help to determine more defi- j
riitely the prospects of gold production
on larger scale, Mr. Bryson said.

prospectors and the number of de
posits being worked has increased'
considerably during the laSt few years,
Mr. Bryson said. Much of this ac
tivity, he believes, has resulted from
the financial condition of the country.
With gold mines having been active
at some stage of history in 31 of the
100 counties of North Carolina, State
Geologist Bryson believes that the op
portunity so rcomm'ercial production
with the use of more modern methods
of mining should be more thoroughly
investigated. i
Gold is one product in which there
can scarcely be an over-production
and which always finds a ready mar
ket. Mr. BrysOn believes no time is
more suitable for encouraging this ac
tivity than the present.
With the gold production of the
world having slumped materially dur
ing the past few years, Mr. Bryson
believes with many economists, that
