Which being true, he would not willingly invite or permit movement of German troops through country. Moreover, there would be little point to such a campaign by Hitler now.

OTHERS' VEWS NEWSPAPERS' PART To the Editor: The splendid standing of North Carolina in the Second War Loan Drive is itself the best evidence cf the wonderfully cooperative job accomplished by our newspapers other news agencies. If anything, I believe newspaper backing of the campaign exceeded that given yotir wholly newspaper-sponsored and entirely successful Scrap Drive last year. It has been my privilege to thank a number of you personally for your splendid assistance in the campaign. Let me here express to all of you the appreciation of the War finance Committee for your pftrt in this important phase of the war. Congratulations on a job well done assignment which when it Comes again is assured of with your continued enthusiasm and support.

Sincerely yours, PAUL LUCAS. JR. N. C. Director of Information, Second War Loan Drive.

When there is a toe vote for municipal of- i lice regular biennial elections, the law requires that the candidates tying determine the issue by lot. They can tlip a coin, draw straws or pick different colored beans, the winner getting the office. cases of tie votes have been reported in the town elections held last week.

At Black Moun- tain two men tied tor mayor, and at i C'recdnioor there was an even vote lor one alderman. Attorney General i McMullan says thev can match for the lobs.

There wasn't much for Governor Urougn' Ion to do except to appoint Dr.

Lilj lie ol Hickory as a member of the State board of chiropracirc examiners after he got all the recommendations in. Not only the state society recommended her, but in a separate letter Dr. J. A. Wood of Charlotte, who gives up his place on (the board to Dr.

Rollins, particulatly requested her appointment. So she is on the board for three years. I is too weak a word, but is the best at hand. for the episode at St ite hospital ai Raleigh when a Negro orderly at' tacked a white woman patient. The speed and thoroughness which offi' cials applied to tin- investigation 01 the crime, the unit diate arrest of the culprit, and the clear cut public statement ol the case have been highly commended.

TOO sounds much like locking the stable the horse is stolen. It can he said for the officials that they have si lip no alibi: whatever blame attaches to them apparently will lie taced square lv. For the comfort of relatives of other patients the hospital, rather than as defense of the management, 11 should be remembered that such are extremely rare, and tliat inherent in the situation are tending to make them possible. The patients re not normal, and the pay scale allowed for attendants does not pi rn incut of highest rla: help. is tragically true that only glaring cases will arouse public sentiment to the point of demanding better treatment for mental .1 willingness to pay tor it.

MICA WAR News reaches Capitol Square that the controversy between independent mica producers and the government buying agency in western Carolina is reaching -enous proportions. The mica miners have been protesting for months that the method of grading employed Colonial Corporation, subsidiary ifMthej federation government and sole mica buying agent, is unlair to them. A-ide Trbm 1 h't general dissatisfaction at "personal-opinion, rule-of-eye" grading, there have been specific charges of favoritism and discrimination. Some miners can get good prices for their product, while others with better glade mica can hardly sell it. this might be-! cheeked off as just another dispute i Jjetween rival but for one lactor: Mica is an absolute war time necessity: anil practically ali of the nation's mica comes from Carolina mountains.

The present differences over grading methods are slowing up production. Some of the smaller opciators fear that the big coir. panics are trying to freeze them out as to gain control ot tiie whole industry lor post war development copies of the revenue act ot 1039 with amendments adopted 1041 and 1943 codified into their proper place, have just been received from the printer. The full bound copies of public and publiclocal laws are expected from the printer within a few weeks. So far as the statewide laws are concerned they will be considerably later than two years ago, b'it for the local laws they will be earlier.
