The local alumni associations are Scheduled to name their officers for the ensuing year at their respective dinner meetings Home Mortgage Loans Shown As Safe Investment Wadesboro, Dpc. 8. —The home mortgage loan, after the severe test of the depression, has proven to be a superlatively safe investmnet, de clares **aul J. Kiker, Wadesboro, Pre sident of the North Carolina Build ing and Loan League. He points out that building and loan associations IP this State, •which invest almost ex clusively in home mortgages, have established a reco.d for safety eve.i better than the national aver*g*. while several small associations in the State have gone into voluntary liquidation during <he lean years cf the depression, n ost of these will pay their shareholders without any pj preclable lci.ses, he says. Referring to recent statement is sued by the director of education and research for the American Savings, Building and Loan Institute, he says, * This reveals that, there are three national institutions with seventy filhft million investors holding the ma jority of the twenty-one billion dol lars of home mortgages in the Unit ed States These are the building and loan associations, the life insurance companies and the mutual savings banks.” "Os the total assets of building and loan associations at the beginning of 1&30, representing investments of eleven million people, ;)8.72 percent survived the four years of the de pression intact," ho said. "Similar in vestments by life insurance compan ies and mutual savings banks proved equally os safe.” Mr. Kiker then opints out that while building and loan associations have for several years been operat ing Upon a materially reduced lend ing scale, they hav-* continued to make some mortgage loans all thro ugh the depression. Reports now re veal that the associations throughout the state are again lending liberally for home financing. AL. B. WESTER, Agent 1 1 INSURANCE bonds , . RtNTALS ; «e«ONt »if ■ Hihlofl* )s.

If they unite, what are they?—liberal or conserva tive? Against this combination, what op poses Itself? The New Deal. But the New Deal party necessarily is a com profnises party, too. What’s the distinction, then? Wfcin’t the two new parties be as much alike one another as the two old major parties have been? P. D. R. —WHERE, If there’s a discernible distinction, the new party of so-called Progres eive-ism will have to be more ad vanced than the party of the so called New Deal. Then where will President Roose velt find himself? At the head of the Progressive party?—as a liberal? Or at the head of the New Deal party, where he is now? —as a con servative? It seems queer to think of Presi dent Roosevelt and the New Deal as conservative. Yet surely President Roosevelt is conservative in comparison with Sen ator Bronson Cutting of New Mexico or young Phil La Follette of Wis consin or Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York. OUT Such possible leaders as Senators Borah of Idaho and Norris of Ne braska don’t count. They’re too old— Borah at 69; Norris at 73. They can’t last long. An opposition leader like Senator Vandenberg wouldn’t count, either. Vandenberg merely is the kind of presidential candidate that the “outs" might put in against the “ins”—as a bid for variety. He’s on a par with the New Deal. That is to say, he’s on a par with it except that Franklin D. Roosevelt thought of the New- Deal first. It Is hard to take his copyright away from him. Conservatism Now Treasury Bulwark (Continued from r-age One.) of bonds and notes, as of Dec. 15 issue. That., however, successful as it is does not constitute the real reason for rejoicing, (After all, millions in idle funds seek "safe’’ investment.) What causes the doffing of hats is this: Morgenthau (or is it F. D. R. him self) is putting forth long-term issues at declining insterest rates. GOVERNMENT STRENGTH The real strength of the treasury lies in its conservative course—its at tempt, in spite of all the large ex penditures, to steer clear of actual monetary inflation. That, too probably accounts for the strength of the dollar abroad against, gold curriences. The United States is having difficulty holding the dollar down to a level designed by New Deal professors.to keep commodity prices up. In brief, the United States still leads the world in resources (and ac tual money) and, if the dollar were to take its normal course, it would go upward and prices would drop, (We often have remarked that we pro baby should tsarve to death if we had all the gold in the world—and no trade—the same fate that threatened Midas,s who wished that everything he touched would turn to gold. The United States has had its wisli—but that precludes nearly every other na tion from dealing with us.) CHRISTMAS WINDFALL Detroit is the city whore Christ mas spending will reach giddy heights ST.

GILMORE Nashville, Tenn., Dec. B.—This week Gas ibeen observed ithroughtaut the Southern Baptist Convention by thou sands of its women as a week of prayer for foreign missions. This cus tom began about the time of the or ganization o thef Woman’s Mission ary Union forty-six years ago. In con nection with this prayer season a spe ciaf offering is made for Foreign Mis sions, which is known as the “Lottie. Moon Christmas Offering” in honor of Miss Lottie Moon, who went out as a missionary to China from Vir ginia in 1873 because she first sug gested the idea. According to Mrs. F. W. Armstrong Plattsburg, Mo., president of the W. M. U., Auxiliary to the Southern Bap tist Convention, during these forty six years this offering has brought into the treasury of the Baptist For eign Mission Board in Richmond, Va., $2,626,777.95 over and above the regular gifts to foreign missions, “while the prayers answered have rought untold blessing and strength to missions and missionaries on every Southern Baptist foreign field.” The objective et for this offering this year is $150,000. The goal set for the Christmas offering in 1933, was $135,- 000 but the offerings amounted to ap proximately $175,000. With this extra money furnished by the women 113 ■missionaries have been supported dur : ing the year. It is expected that' the offering will go far beyond that of last Christmas.
