ZOLLICOFFER FOR CONGRESS
For the first time in the fifty-three
years of its existence as a political
entity, Vance county is offering- one of
its citizens and a native son as a can
didate to represent the fourth North
Carolina district in the Congress of
the United States.
The county lays claim to the dis
tinction at this time for the triple
reason that there is a vacancy, - that
it never has had recognition, and
that its representative in the contest
is capable and in every sense of the
word fitted for the office. Vance also
offers to the district a record of
fidelity to the principles of the party
and an unflagging loyalty to the
party's ticket, both 'State and national,
over more than half a century. If
that argument isn’t sound, then we
confess to total ignorance of politics.
Jere Perry Zollicoffer, who carries
the aspirations and ambitions of
Vance county in this fight, was born
and reared in Henderson. His father
W4s the late A. C. Zollicoffer. himself
a product of Wake Forest College, a
lifelong Democrat, and a man who
lived most of his life in Henderson,
and who built up a great law practice
here and came to be an outstanding
citizen of the State. His mother is
Mrs. Temple Boddie Zollicoffer, of
this city, a native of Franklin county.
Jere Zollicoffer is a lawyer by pro
fession, but has had wide business ex
perience over a period of years. He
received his education in the publics
schools of Henderson, at the old
Horner Military school, the University
of North Carolina and at Columbia
University, New York City. He served
23 months in France during the
World War, and is an active member)
of the American Legion. He is like
wise a member of the Junior Order
tTnited American Mechanics. He is a
lifelong member of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, and a teacher of
Bible class in Holy Innocents
church in Henderson. Until recently
(he was a member of the board of trus
tees of the Henderson city schools,
and at the present time is city attor
ney of Henderson.
During the first campaign of Wood
tow Wilson for the presidency, Mr.
Zollicoffer stumped New York City in
behalf of his candidacy. He was man
ager in Vance county for the late
Ashley Horne, of Clayton, for gov
ernor, and also managed the;
Vance county campaigns of Governor
T. W. Bickett and Governor Cameroni
Morrison. He was tendered the solici
torship of the third judicial district in
1923 when a vacancy occurred in that
office.
Mr. Zollicoffer is not affiliated with
or under political obligations to any!
individual, political organization or
machine, and if elected to Congress
can promise a service in which the
good of the whole people will be the
guiding motive and the center of hid
efforts and ambitions. He is tied to
no clique or faction, and will be freei
to labor for the common, welfare of
all his constituents. A Searching of
his career will reveal that he has at
all times stood for the highest ideals
in government and home life.
Mr. Zollicoffer some years ago was
married to Miss Julia Bryan Jones,
of New Bern, and they have one
daughter, Miss Julian Bryan Zolli
coffer.
Vance county was formed in 1881
from parts of Warren, Granville and
Franklin counties, and has never
failed to do its full part for the Demo
cratic party. Yet the eounty has never
had representation on the State or na
tional tickets. It has ryver before,
sought recognition of this sort, but
has been content to contribute its
support and its majorities for the
benefit of the party and its leader
ship.
Vance county is now offering Mr.
Zollicoffer for high political position.
The people of the oity and county
where he was born and reared know
the manner of man he is. and are sup
porting him with a feeling of pride.
He is a man of high character, emin
ent fitness and genuine worth. In the
name of true Democratic 1 principles
for which ne stands and which Vance
county has always loyally supported,
Jere Zollicoffer’s home town and
home county present him to the voters
oi the fourth district, cbnfident that
if he is entrusted with the honor that
is sought for a native son, the '.rust
will never be betrayed, and that his
constituents will have reason to be
proud of the choice they shall have
mLde.
My AJ Ot V
by
James Aswell
New York, ApHl 21—Pinwheels: It
is a good sign, they tell me, when
dealers in antiques begin to flourish
again. Several of the swankier boule
vards are dotted with new showrooms
for pedigreed furniture. Rents are
climbing about town and landlords
hesitate to accept contracts for long
periods. But an advertisement for a
housemaid the other day brought a
young woman to the door with two col
lege degrees.
Fifty-second street, west and east of
Fifth avenue, where the cozy little
hideaways with the grilled basement
doors used to hold sway, is now be
coming a street of wine merchants. I
notice thati the crowds are still swirl
ing about that collection of moneys of
the world on display at the Chase
National bank in Cedar street. The
prize of the exhibit for this reporter,
is the stone coin from the island of
Yap—weigh 170 pounds.
Two hours were sunk last night in
“It’s a Small World.” by Walter Bo
din and Burnet Hershey, a surprising
new volume all about midgets. The
authors, I am told, spent years in
the company of the little folk all over
the world, collecting material, some
of it exceedingly bizarre. I.like Nick
Foran the new Mox movie find. His
father is Colonel Arthur Foran. chair
man of the New Jersey state highway
commission, and a millionaire. -
SIGHTS AND SOUNDS
The music issuing from the goat
skin drums at the Cabanacan In Har
lem somehow freshens the memory
of Reri, the pretty little South Sea
maiden Flo Ziegfeld brought 12.000
miles to appear in the “Follies”. 1
hear she is happily married in Eu
rope. Roger Wolf Kahn, made seve
ral times a millionaire by the death
of his father, Otto Kahn, will continue
in his chosen —and often rocky -ca
reer of orchestra leader.
The loveliest section of Manhattan
these [afternoons *is Jthe wholesale
flower district in Greenwich street —
ordinarily a drab thoroughfare. Vig
nette: The theatrical rooming house
in the West Forties, with the line of
men’s sockks hung out to dry on a
window string. I glimps ed the old
gentleman who used to advertise a
tuxedo vest —he was in a dinky little
cigar with a lighted sign set in his
side-street tea room, smoking a pipe!
The other specialists tell me that
whenever a performer sneezes into
the microphone peradventure he gets
a dozen or more postcards from all
over inscribed simply: “God bless
you!” Has anyone ever noted how
early they roll up the sidewalks in
Chinatown Save for a few strag
glers, homeless or mission-bound the
vicinity of Mott and Pell street is
sleeping like the mysterious east at
11 o’clock at night. The joss houses
close around 10:30.

By CHARLES P. STEWART
Washington, April 21. —If the Presi
dent, getting tired of having Congress
in session in Washington, and able
to persuade one of its two houses to
quit and go home, but unable to pre
vail upon the other to do so, chooses
to resort to extreme measures, there
is no doubt of his legal right (see
Section 3 of Article 11, U. S. consti
tution) to adjourn both of them, by
executive mandate, “to such time as
he may think proper.”
But this right is one which no White
House tenant ever has attempted to
exercise.
That President Roosevelt is think
ing of asserting it is a statement no
one but himself can make with any
certainty of accuracy, but it is a fact
that it is being mentioned on Capitol
Hill as a possibility. .
The impression assuredly is general
that the New Yorker wants the law
makers off his hands by the end of
May at the latest.
It equally is general that a consld
siderable number of them are unwill
ing to adjourn that soon.
In such a situation tlhe suggestion
is made that it may not be difficult
for the executive mansion to maneu
ver the senators and representative®
into a deadlock, and as an English
parliamentarian would express it, pro
sogue the enire outfit.
t would be constitutional, but, oh’
the row it would raise! Anti-dista
torial legislators fairly froth at the
mouth at the very idea
Depositors in tied-up banks natur
ally resent the administration’s atti
tude which seems to have extinguish
ed Congressman Clarence J. McLeod’s
plan to have them paid off in full by
the federal government—the' RFC to
take over the tied-up institutions’
frozen assets and thaw them grad
ually, the government thus (in theory)
eventually getting its money back.
But consider; a large part of the
assets undoubtedly are unthawable.
The government will not be able to
realize anything like 100 per cent on
them. Folk who did not happen to
be “stuck” will have to foot the bill,
as. taxpayers.
To ibe sure the folk who were stuck
wouldn’t have been stuck but for the
government’s dereliction Therefore
aren’t they entitled to hold the gov
ernment responsible to their loss? Ac
cording to this line of reasoning how
ever a citizen whose house is looted
by burglers should entitled to hold the
police responsible and demand com
pensation And maybe he ought to bt
entitled to do so, but it isn’t generally
so considered. It’s agreed that ttic
thieves shuold be caught and punlsh
,ed if possible, and that their loot
should be returned to its rightful own
ers if recoverable —ibut if the crooks
have spent it, the assumption is that
the losers loss is irretrievable.

New York, April 21. —Reports
coming in to this writer from all parts
of the United States indicate that the
people asa whole believe the bfew Deal
Ihas not gone far enough—instead of
too far.
That is contrary to the opinion
voiced in powerful circles in the larg
er cities.

with the people in the west. People

would not care if he did away with
Congress altogether.”
(But of course we may not always
have a Roosevelt as president),
i Mice At Play
It wasn’t so much mice at play (in
Congress) during the President’s ab
sence as Wall Street nibblers.
Wall Street set out to wreck the
entire Presidential program.
In Ihe Senate Banking Committee,
the bill for the regulation of stock
exchanges had its teeth pulled.
And there was considerable under
hand work to undermine other Roose
velt policies.
Teeth pullers were Republican Sen
ators Keane of New Jersey, who has
been in the stock exchange business
for years- Townsend of elaw®re, Wal
coti of Connecticut, and Democratic
William Gibbs McAdoo of California.
McAdoo has (become the most pow
erful critic of the Roosevelt admin
istration.
Al Smiles
There is one man in New York
who is smiling to himselv over Sen
ator McAdoo’s criticism of some of
the Rooseveltian policies. That man
is Alfred E. Smith. Smith recalls how
he thought he had made up with Mc-
Adoo at the 1932 Chicago convention
—then saw McAdoo give the push to
the Roosevelt bandwagon that put it
over.
