After the Revolution the Watauga settlement became an -orphan, Neither North Carolina nor the new federal government seemed to want it. So in 1784 the settlers organized the independent state of Franklin, a commonwealth unique in American. history, and elected “Nolichucky Jack” as their governor. When North Carolina tried to assert its authority. over the region again, the settlers resisted. Their governor was singled out for punishment, treacherously betrayed, captured and placed on trial at Morgantown, N. C., for high treason. And at once more than 1,000 of the mountain men assembled to rescue their beloved “Nolichucky Jack.” A civil war seemed imminent.

Nearly all of the principles injected into the commercial lifeblood of the nation are of a character to promote group or unit action distinguished from individual action that was developed with the opening up of American resources after formation of the Union.. We never have known, for instance, a time when our government told business® in so many words that it could work together as a unit, if it met certain requirements, nor have we ever known a time when our government said to agriculture that it had to cut down its production in a monopolistic agreement in order to force higher prices. One could go on and on with illustrations. . Now, tion: to what p repeat have * the earlier ques- we? «*« * There is, and can be, little doubt of economic progress in the last ; few months. The country has Noticeable emerged from Progress the depression, to some extent at least. I believe no one can say with assurance, how- ever, that we are far enough on the road to recovery. that we can be ‘sure of no relapse. But those persons who are best in a position to appraise conditions certainly feel there has been a gain. _ As to the cause of this improvement, one can pick up an argument almost anywhere. The ardent supporters of the new deal assert the Roosevelt policies are responsible, while those opposed to the Roosevelt policies claim there is a possibility that some or all the progress made came from the natural wearing out of the depression. That is, history records the same course for all depressions. Stocks and supplies are exhausted and production starts up of its own accord to meet the demand. So we are starting in on a second year of the new deal, as I see the picture, still uncertain as to the outcome but equipped with greater confidence than obtained among the rank and: file of the people a year ago. It will be recalled how many times President Roosevelt has said, in presenting new items in his new provided committee for the amount in excess was of nine even, state million bales, and that figure, of course, is higher than the value of the cotton itself. To enable the secretary of agriculture to control the production, each farmer who planted cotton would have to obtain from the secretary what is described as a certificate of exemption for the amount he intended to produce. That is to say, the farmer given a certificate would be exempting so many pounds of cotton from the operation of the sales tax, and it is presumed ' that the certificates exemption will be issued the required amount. From to if necessary, aid. by this brief outline, it must be apparent that never before has ‘there been such a drastic propo$al for control of individual businesses of men in this country. : dis- end, the aver- JORDAN, meeting canal UT.—At a West a proposal to con- and pumping plant the total for the of water and save farms and lawns, erop year of 1934-35 is fixed at nine million bales on the acreage of a “normal” or average year.
