IN CATAWBA COUNTY
The result in Catawba county yes
terday is the best recommendation
any people can obtain. The Record
is not speaking, from a partizan sense,
but from the ( broader standpoint of
community welfare when it makes this
assertion.

THE END OF THE SULTANATE
Springfield Republican. '(1
Mohammed , VI denies the author-,
ity of the National Assembly to de
clare the sultanate vacated, holding
that it is a body created for. a na
tional emergency, and that such ac
tion could lawfully come only from
a new Assembly freely elected by
the people. However, the ministry
has resigned under Kemalist pressure
and his own status is left in doubt
reported last night that the Demo- by the latest action, of the reprcsenta
(ratic candidate for sheriff was elect
ed.
The Record is unable to account for
this phenomenon except from a stand
point of psychology, to use a much
abused term. Here is how this con
clusion is reached: Men and women
with their eyes open are bound to
note the remarkable progress of North
Carolina in all lines. Its good roads
program has won the admiration of
all; its work for health; its educational
policy and its genuine interest in the
welfare of all the people, whatever
its faults, could not but commend
the party responsible for these things
to the intelligent voters.
There may have been local causes,
but the big facts of progress blazed
out and captivated the imaginations
of the people.
Democrats now have a larger re
sponsibility than ever and those en
trusted to power should make every
effort to use this power in the in
terest of all.
. The election is over in Catawba
county and the main thing now is
'"'out regard to- the ..wishes- of the for everybody to pull together for a
patrons as a whole and in utter con
tempt of the civil service and the
claims of a faithful and competent
.member of the postoffice force, they
struck a spade into the land and
started a slide. There is no question
about this statement. That was the
beginning. Horace H. Ajbee, .Perry
Hefner and other Republican workers
in the county joined forces with the
Democrats on that score and hundreds
of other Republicans, some of them
powerful factors on election day,
merely voted and went about their
other business. ,
The Democrats nominated a good
ticket for the "county offices and
' ' their candidate for sheriff ; pledged
himself to make a fight on blockading
in the county. The candidates on both
sides are popular men, but there was
-a feeling in the rural districts that
deputy sheriffs, appointed by the
'.k sheriff, have not been as active as
.they should be, and this weighed with
5hjtor, especially the women, who,
c as always, have been the "chief "suf
ferers from liquor. That accounted
for Mr. Bost running ahead of his
ticket.
' Taking advantages of these things
including criticism of the progress
of the state and the feeling that a
change would do the county good-
Chairman Chas. W. Bagby and his
assistants bent to the task of orga
nizing the opposition forces and get
ting them to the polls. In Hickory
; a new organizer came into the contest
in S. A. Isenhour and the result of
bis efforts was felt. But the Record
could not give individual credit to
the opposition if it should try; there
are too many who did a full part.
The result of the election in this
county, as the Record sees it today,
is a mandate to the Democrats to
take over the affairs of government
and administer them in the interest
,.bf all. The Democrats have a plain
mandate from the people to make
.progress, to 'use the people's money
economically and at the right place
twid to break up the liquor business in
Hhe county.
r: The fact that leading Republicans
ln Hickory and the county were will-,
" in to take part in drubbing their
own organization is the best sign of
progress that the Record has seen here
'.or anywhere. It simply means that
there is enough independence in this
good county to make any set of men
uwho handle its afafirs be on their
good behavior. . The Record believes
Ijhat this is the most valuable asset
qf the county.
p It will be many a day before arrog-
nc will stalk abroad in Catawba coun
,ty as it has in the last few years.
greater community. We have a-habit
(in this county of fo'rgetting and
that's good. The county first is our
motto.
The Record has been asked to place
the shoe where it would pinch in its
comment on the election in the coun
ty yesterday. It has tried to do that.
THE NEW NULLIFICATION
Springfield Republican.
When lawyers of good standing in
their respective communities begin to
sponsor the doctrine that the exis
tence of the 18th amendment to the
constitution of the United States im
plies the existence of no duty to en
force it, they will be heard with less
respect later on when they appear as
the champion and the defenders of
constitutional government on issues
that lie nearer their hearts than prohi
bition.
In a statement issued over the sis
natures of a score of well-known Mas
sachusetts lawyers one reads:
"The 18th amendment erives to Con
crress-and to each of the 48 states the
concurrent right to enforce the amend
ment. This is not a command, but an
option, it does not create a duty."
Yet if there is no duty to enforce
the 18th amendment, Congress is as
free from it as much as any state.
ine position of these lawvers neces
sarily is that no legislative bodv. state
or federal, rests under the slightest
obligation to enact enforcement sta
tutes. For the 18th amendment's grant
oi "concurrent power" to enforce pro
hibition makes the exercise of that
power by Congress "optional" in the
same sense and to the same extent pre
cisely as in the case of that power by
state legislatures.
So we are told in effect that the
18th amendment hereafter mav be
left a dead letter, bv the deliherate
choice of Congress and the 48 state
legislatures, without the slightest re
pudiation of duty on the part of any of
them, whether federal or state. In
other words, the incorporation of the
amendment into the constitution
amounted to nothinc because no moral
obligation to enforce it "by appro
priate legislation" was imposed on anv
branch of Government. And if that
is true of the 18th amendment, it is a.U
so true of the 13th amendment abol
ishing slavery, which simply conferred
upon Congress the power to enforce it.
Here is the new nullification with a
vengeance. We have a constitution
saying that the manufacture, trans
portation and sale of liquors for bev
erage purposes "is hereby prohibited,"
yet is argued that this prohibition may
lawiuny De made completely void and
of ho effect without a violation of leg
islative duty; and the neonle are ex
pected by these same lawyers to hold
in reverence as the bulwark of their
tives of the entente in referring the
question of the further recognition of
the sultan to their home governments.
Theoretically the collapse of the Con
stantinople government may be con
sidered a diplomatic reverse for the
British who have preferred a tactablc
Turkish government under the guns
of the fleet and have been slow to have
"dealings with the Angora government,
which has become the only power in
Turkey that matters.
Manifestly the sultanate as a source
of political authority has come to an
end. So closes the reign of a dynasty
which dates from 1299 and has play
ed a great role in history through
much of the six centuries of its rule.
Even although in recent times it has
retained but the shadow of its former
greatness, its termination will have
great but not readily calculable con
sequences both for Turkey and for the
world.
Of the two questions involved the
less important is the rejection by Tur
key of the temporal authority of the
sultan. This is essentially but a rec
ognition of existing facts. But ques
tions of far-reaching international con
cern are raised by the assertion on the
part of the Angora government of tha
right to select the head of Islam from
the descendants of the Osman dynisty.
Nobody seems to have a very definite
opinion as to how this will be taken in
the Mohammedan world, and it may be
ome time before data for such an opin
ion are available. But while the conse
quences of the change are at present
obscure, they will certainly ba con
siderable, and may be great.

AL SMITH
There flashed over the political sky
Hast night a new luminary. Known
generally throughout New York state
7-once elected governor after a . re
markable record as a public official
jn Greater New York city Al Smith,
former newsboy, had no grip on the
nation as a .whole. Today he is the
most talked of man in the United
States he looms as large as Grover
Cleveland, the sheriff and later the
governor.
, There will be more printed about
Governor Smith than any other pub
lic man in America. His administra
tion will be scrutinized closely from
the day, he takes oath until the next
Democratic national convention meats.
Temporarily at least, he has forced
into the background all other Demo
cratic public men.
Al Smith's unprecedented victory
in New York yesterday over an ad
mittedly able man, Governor Miller,
has marked him as a child of greater
destiny. ,
