Might Pick Byrd As Nominee (Continued from Page One.) Deal the original New Dealer. Now they believe that opposition is then best policy. Suppose they nominate an old-fash ioned. dyed-in-the-wool Republican, such as Senator L. J. Dickinson of lowa. He may detach some normally Republican states from the Demo crats’ 1932 list of northern common wealths. However, few G. O. P. cal culators are optimistic enough to pro phesy that their candidate can win without breaking formidably into Dixie. They admit that a northern Fepublican nominee could not do this, but they reckon that a southern Dem ocrat might (running as a Republi can,) while doing about as well in the north, on an anti-New Deal plat form, as a northern man could. TWO “POSSIBILITIES” Tw osouthern Democrats specifially are mentioned as possible Republican nominees against the preent White House tenant: 1. Senator Harry F. Byrd of Vir ginia. 2. Governor Eugene Talmadge of Georgia. MUST PLEASE HUEY Os all anti-New Deal Democrats Sen ator Byrd’s Virginia colleague, Sena tor Carter Glass is the most notable, but Glass is much too old. Byrd’s age is all right, his record as governor of Virginia is O. K., he isn’t too extravagantly far southern, his south polar-exploratory brother is an asset to him, and he is as anti- New Deal as could he desired. His weakness is that he isn’t likely to he satisfactory to Senator Huey 13.l 3 . Long of Louisiana. TALMADGE Governor Talmadge, one would in fer from his recent utterances, should be acceptable to Huey. He has a reputation as a farm radical. That is to say, as a Cotton farm radical. -Doubtless cotton farm radicalism can be adopted to corn, wheat, pork and tobacco radicalism. Yet the governor likewise is a violent anti-New Dealer, It is a philosophy which is straight down the Kingfish’s “alley.”; : On the other hand, Talmadge is look ed upon by organized labor as strongly anti-labor. Paying Bonus Now Seen As Crime of First Magnitude, Starting Inflation Spiral (Continued rrom Page One.) betting, "nigger” pools, slot-machines, chain letters, and the like are straws in the wind. The "prosperity” idea underlying these screems is similar to the lure behind inflation. The printing of green.|back dollars and the setting up of fiat hank deposits are similar attempts, but on a much vaster scale, to “create” synthetic prosperity. I have recently criticized the ad ministration severely because of its reckless and wasteful spending policy. The danger is starting such a gigantic program is the grave possibility that it can never be stopped. Ancient Rome found this to be true. She started a grain dole which eventually meant the ruin of Rome. Within ter. years England has tried a dole and has al ready found it was easier to start than to stop; that it was easier to get people on than off the dole. The $4,- 000,000,000 relief fund has been used in this present bonus fight as one of the strongest arguments for paying the $2,000,000,000 now. This is a con crete illustration of how one huge ap propriation breeds another. Bonus Payment WIU Add To “Fear” Inflation A noted English economist recently said that the United States can cre ate a larger deficit than European na tions for. people .in this country do not lose confidence in their money easily. He went on to say that, when we do realize that our dollar will only (buy what twenty-five cents bought for merly, then there .will be a mad stam. pede to change currency into goods. Americans are slow to act; but when they do, they act with a vengeaanee. Moderation, is anu nknown American characteristic. Hence, any piece of leg islation which tends to destroy con fidence in the soundness of our cur rency is wicked. In /whatever way the bonus is paid now, the danger is great. If the $2,- 000,000,000 is to be met by printing money, then We ara openly starting the inflation spiral. If it is to be paid in the orthodox manner (by govern ment -borrowing) then it is only an other disguised step toward inflation. Government borrowing today is a first cousin of currency inflation. We can not go on. spending billion on credit Sooer or later the people will come to the conclusion that government debt will never be paid ,back if we keep on at the present reckless pace. Any bill such as this bonus measure adds to the fear of inflation. In fact, “fear” inflation is almost as dangerous as real inflation. Congress should wake up to this fact. Inflation Sure To Give Us a Hitler In articles and speeches during the past two years, I have tried to point out some of the horrors of past eras of inflation. Frankly, I doubt if the after-effects of the war in Germany were any worse than the after-effects of her period of inflation. Inflation hits rich and poor alike, but the brunt of the burden falls on wage workers and salary earners—the great middle class. With the destruction of the middle class—the backbone of ,eveiy nation —goes the destruction of such priceless privileges as the freedom of speech and of the press, democratic government, private property, and the like. We end up with some “ism,” and its inevitable .counterpart—a “strong aim” dictator. So I ant solidly behind the Presi dent when be sounds the battlecry* on currency inflation or any measure which may lead to that calamity. In this particular bonus fight he is op posing a powerful group. For ten year the veterans have probably conducted the most successful Washington lob foy of any bloc. They are a formidable political organization. They and their friends control millions ot .votes thro ughout the country. Lined up beside them in this struggle has been Father Coughlin with his emotional radio fol lowing. They have bombarded the President with thousands of telegrams from all parts of the country demand ing that he sign the bonus bill. With the campaign of 1936 already getting underway, the pressure on the President to follow the popular course and sign ,the bill has been terrific. In the face of this, I believe President Roosevelt took one of the most fear less and patriotic steps of his term in vetoing with emphasis and vigor the Patman (bonus hill. T commend him for his courage. Business, as registered by the Bab sonchart, is now five per cent, below a year ago and 22 per cent below nor mal.

BITTER ATTACK ON FOES OF NRA MADE BY GREEN Wasingtonj May 24. —(AP)— Con demning NRA opponents as “shorn sighted, reactionary and anti-social,” William Green, president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, today asked the House Ways and Means Commit tee to continue the recovery unit for two yeai-s. “If NRA should be killed,” lie tes tified, “unemployment will Increase by leaps and bounds, wages will sink, sweat shops will spring up again all over the country, children will again go to work in factories and mines in great numbers and under shameful conditions.” “Ruthless, bitter competition will re-appear, many of its effects falling on the worker, who is helpless to pro tect himself.” Reading from a prepared statement, the labor chief insisted that nine and a half months extension voted by the Senate is in reality a destruction of NRA, more complete and more dan gerous than would be a refusal to continue it in any form.

SEAWELL PREPARES WINE LAW OPINION Attorney General Will Not Be Ready With Statement Until Monday In the Sir Waller Hotel. Dally Dlspaleh Horen*, BY .1. C. LASKEItVILIi. Raleigh, May 24.—Attorney General A. A. F. Seawell has not yet written an opinion on the new wine law en acted by the General Assembly, but expects to have it prepared by Mon day or Tuesday he said today. The opinion was requested by Commission er of Agriculture W. A. Graham, who, together with the governor, will he in charge of administering the wine law, Commissioner Graham has been out of town all this week attending a con vention in some other istate but is ex pected hack Monday. “I have been reading and studying the new wine law ancj .hope to be able to transmit by opinio nand the an swers to questions propounded by Commissioner Graham either Monday or Tuesday,” Attorney General Seawell said. He decline to intimate as to how he expected to rule on the law, es pecially on the section which provides that the only wines which can be sold in North Carolina are those manu factured in the State from fruit juices from fruits and berries grown in the State One of the questions Commis sioner Graham wants cleared up, it is understood, is whether this will pro hibit the importation of all wines, even wines made from North Carolina fruit juices processed in the State but shipped to other states for fer mentation. One large wine manufacturing con cern is understood to be ready to ship several carloads of wine, made from fruit juices pressed and processes from North Carolina grown grapes and berries hut fermented in another state, if the Attorney General rules that this wine can be brought back into the state and sold. It is also un derstood that this same winery has already contracted for as many lons of dewberries as the growers in the eastern part of the State can supply if they can continue to process these | berries in its Wilmington plant and j then ship the processed juice to its New York plant for fermentation. i Whitfield’s Wife, Once n Vanderbilt, Is Suicide Victim Las Vegas, N. M., May 24 (AP) Mrs. Emily Whitfield, a former wife of William H. Vanderbilt, who recent ly sued for a divorce from Raoul Whitfield, the author, was found dead of a bullet wound today at the Whit field ranch, at Dead Horse, about 25 miles from here. Mrs. Whitfield’s body, a bullet wound through her heart, was found by a ranch employee who went into the house to start fires about 7:30 a m‘. Sheriff Francisco Delgado, of San Miguel county, who went to the ranch to investigate, said Mrs. Whitfield ap parently had taken her own life, and that the fatal shot had been fired about midnight. Mrs. Whitfield returned here last week from New York. Agreed Upon Extension Os Bankhead Act (Coni.i.ued from Page One.)
