Hoosier Vagabond

GATLINBURG, Tenn., Oct. '30.—Unéle Steve i le is probably the most engaging man in Gatlin- % He has always lived here; always been a farmer - 4nd ‘a trader. I

He raised a big family here on the Little Pigeon River, in good mountain fashion. And then, in his middle years, the irresistible flood of human events rolled through the Great Smoky Mountains and tinged everybody's life with change, and Uncle Steve’s life changed too. Today he is a power in these

parts. He owns a big hotel, and lots of other things. He is a business magnate. He is the elder Morgan of his clan. His children are at the steering wheel, but I suspect that Uncle Steve drives relentlessly from the back

We are e staying in Uncle Steve's hotel—the Riverside, It #s managed by his son Dick. Uncle Steve Just wanders around and about. Sometimes tourists - stop out front and ask him if~this is a good hotel. - Hell say, “Well I've been stayin’ here for quite a ‘spell, and I like it all right.” He never teils them owns it. When Uncle Steve first was badgered into set‘ting up a tourist| camp, he swore to all the family that it would bel the end of the Whaleys and all

i saved. But in the first year it made so much money that

££ Uncle Steve built, a frame hotel, and this made so

much money he built a big modern hotel, and it's’ making so much money theyre putting on an addition this winter. {10s hard telling where the thing will stop.

Doesn’t Know Nothin’—Much

Uncle Steve is] dry and droll. He’s dumb like a fox, and old-fashioned like fluid drive. He’s abcut as skinny as I am, and his nose hangs over at the end like Puck’s. He sort of halfway grins when he talks,

By Ernie Pyle

and his humor is so left-handed you don’t know half the time whether he’s joking or not. He loves to talk about being an ignorant. hillbilly. It gets funnier and funnier as it gradually dawns on

you how all-fired smart Uncle Steve really is. h

“I was educated at Bear Pen Holler University,” he says. That is his name for the School of Experience. “I don’t know nothin’ abouf nothin’, very much.” But I'll bet there isn’t a minor item about anything that is or ever was in Gatlinburg that Uncle Steve doesn’t know. “I don’t know no more about runnin’ a hotel now than when I started, and I didn’t know nothin’ then,” says Uncle Steve. “All I know is you cook and make the beds—and charge ’em a little.” That scems to me a pretty good basis to start on. “I never kept a book in my life,” Uncle Steve says. “I never kept no track of how much I spent or how much I took in.” He apparently has stopped talking. You're just ready to reply, or change the subject. And then finally, as a small afterthought, Uncle Steven looks over at you slantlike and says in a low voice, “I always come out a little ahead though.”

His Own Bellhop

Uncle Steve still is known to carry up a tourist’s bag occasionally, and pocket the tip. He doesn’t do it for a joke either. When the tourists later find out who he is, they're rattled about having tipped him. It doesn’t rattle Uncle Steve though. One night he and I went up to see Andy Huff, who owns the big Mountain View Hotel. They are direct competitors, but they're old friends too. We sat and gabbed with Andy for ‘an hour or so, and then Andy drove us home. “How you standing the cooking down at the Riverside?” Andy Huff asked me. “Well "the cooking’s all right,” I said, “but the owner kind of gets cn my nerves.” “I don’t wonder,” said -Andy Huff. “When you get all you can stand of it, check cut and come down to my hotel.” +80 I said I guess we'd stick it out this time, but I'd stay with Andy the next trip. :

. Inside Indianapolis (4nd “Our Town"

POLITICS WED T SKITTERING momentarily into the background yesterday afternoon as the national lottery fever swept through town like a cyclone. The Jocular atmosphere which surrounded the registration Oct. 16 was missing for the most part. The eligibles {seemed to realize for the first time {that their stake in America’s |peacetime conscription was an ac{tual year of ‘military training; not ja theoretical one. Local draft boards were jammed with men still’ seeking to learn {their numbers. Buyers of news[papers were skimming over the {lists of numbers, asking friends: {Are you inf?” Many who had registered eemed to come awake for the rst time. “Say,” said one, “how o I find out what my number is? _ I hear that if it’s one of those drawn early I —” o it goes.

Politics Hereabouts

BUT POLITICS| WAS not altogether forgotten in the rush. Both Republican and Democratic headquarters were busy issuing claims of increased strength as William P. Flanary, chief registration clerk, disclosed that the total county registration would be upwards of 306,000. Two of the areas that showed the biggest gains over 1936 registration are Speedway City and the part of Washington Township north of 58th St. and east of the Monon tracks; Speedway City registrants are mainly Allison workers and the Democrats clai 75-25 edge in the district. Republican headqua ir _claim to have staked out all of Washington Township as their private property.

That is partly because I have had a al of trouble coming to a Also it is partly be-

he was entitled to take his time reaching the main question. However, - Roosevelt has made several speeches singe the Chicago convention and ‘has now made two frankly political campaign speeches, and he has not yet got around to the real question. * He has still given ‘no reason why we should break down the two-term restraint which has been deemed by some of his most illustrious predecessors to be a most vital safeguard to our free institutions, and which has been so-indorsed, at different times, by both houses of Congress. Perhaps they were wrong. But it would seem to be incumbent upon Rooseyalt to say why he thinks so. Instead, he just ignores the whole business.

Willkie on Foreign Policy

Roosevelt thus far has devoted his campaigning to saving that he has Leen a good President. With that I agree fully. et in the past that has not been considered sufficient reason for perpetuating a President indefinitely. \ .Roosevelt has said also that some of the Republicans in Congress have been shortsighted about defense and foreign policy. Again I agree. Some Republicans have been as shortsighted in these matters as a number of Roosevelt's own Democrats. Willkie has not. He Iwas, in the essentials, stood shoulder ta shoulder with Roosevelt. He has stood there despite the strenuous efforts of some of his own Republican leaders to pull him away. He has furthermore repudiated the support of Father Coughlin, an action which almost |caused a sensational explosion within the Republican organization. Yet for all of this the only recognition Willkie has received from the Administration is| to be called an appeaser.

A Dog’s Eye View

MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE the Thompson restaurant people have been handling the public a long time or maybe the contractor has a touch.of whimsy, but anyway someone in the organization that is redecorating the restaurant at Washington and Illinois is doing the sidewalk superintendents a tremendous favor. They've put up a wooden front to shield the operations from the elements, but out of respect for the public’s curiosity, there are several peepholes, all nicely glassed over and properly labeled. The highest and largest is for Dad. A little sign says so. Down a little and over to one side is Mom’s. And then there’s Junior’s, just about where Junior would be able to see. And, last of all, 'way down near the sidewalk, just B00ut dog high, is a very small hole labeled just plain “Fido.” §

Gallup and the Politicians

THE SIGN ON ENGLISH’S is advertising “The Man Who Came to Dinner by the authors of “You Can’t Take It With You.” We'd say it was reason enough . Col. Kenneth Collins, whose Indiana Theater was robbed ’‘tother night, got a nice consolation award yesterday. The Variety Club elected him chief barker. ... We've been wanting to tell you, too, about the way the politicos keep calling up to find out what the Gallup poll is going to show. One gentleman we know who says the poll is a fake calls up every other day anyway just to show us he holds no grudge.

By Raymond Clapper

Roosevelt has hinted and his spokesmen have emphasized that Willkie is inexperienced. That is true, and it has given me pause as it undoubtedly has given others pause. Re Willkie has allowed it to be known privately to friends that he intends to continue Hull as his Secretary of State. The defense setup, manned largely by pro-Willkie businessmen, will be left virtually intact except probably to increase its powers and give

it a head with more authority. The Army and Navy,

being professional services, will not be affected. Much of the present Government personnel will have to be retained if Willkie is elected. Willkie recognizes his lack of experience. When the British destroyer deal was first proposed to Roosevelt, the reply was that it would be political suicide unless Willkie agreed to it in advance. An emissary sounded out Willkie, He said he did not have the technical information upon whith to base a decision, but that he favored all possible aid for Britain and that if Roosevelt felt we could safely spare the destroyers he would go along and not make a political issue-sof it. Later it was explained that Willkie had not expected it would be done without the consent of Congress, and he complained of that feature. But the incident suggests Willkie's sense of responsibility and his recognition that he could not have cocksure opinions on such matters without the technical knowledge.

Roosevelt . Should Explain

There would be some lost motion while a new Administration was acquiring the feel of affairs here. But Roosevelt himself took over with a green crew in the midst of a panic in 1933, and it was a good thing a fresh nand did take hold. As against the slowdown during a chat geover, there is the awful possibility that if Roosevelt was in for a third term, every single action of his from then on, every single request for new authority, would be subjected to suspicious scrutiny for hidden, ulterior motives. There is likely to be less reluctance to give the additional power to Willkie than to one under suspicion as a third-term President. We recall the overly suspicious Southern Democrats during the Supreme Court and reorganization- -bill fights. Will they be any less suspicious during a third term? Are we now facing under Roosevelt the possibility of four years of paralyzing and disrupting suspicions? Perhaps Roosevelt has the answers to such questions. If so he should speak now. It would be the height of arrogance to go into a third term ‘without having even attempted to give the American people Jus reasons for asking this special favor at their ands.

the Navy, as well as for the state of Massachusetts, were largely made by the women in this institution. The state flags are painted by hand and I should think they would require a certain amount of skill to produce absolutely correctly. Two -new buildings are a great contrast to the original one, which is fairly old. They are of the cottage type. One houses a group of girls 17 to 21 years old—the other a group of mothers with their babies. Here child care is taught, and if the healthy looking youngsters I saw are a criterion of the efficiency of what the mothers learn in this particular course, then one can say that they are being well trained. A little after 1 o'clock I left very reluctantly to as a plane for New York City. By 7 we were on the President's train in the Mott Haven yards. Mrs. Helm, Miss Thompson and Maj. Hooker were with me. We dined and I had a chance to see the President and then we went ahead to Madison Square Garden, for we wanted to hear as many of the speakers preceding the President as possible. It seemed to us a very good meeting. Though the President was worried about the new development in Europe, I think he enjoyed the opportunity of talking to this big audience as well as the unseen one over the air.

Mr. Schricker is an inveterate reader. His favorite books are biographies and histories.

By Noble Reed

OST of the “home spun” - jokes about Hoosiers are told by Henry F. Schricker on himself. } And he likes to be known as the Hoosier “from the sticks” with no pretense of having acquired any big city airs. Back of him is a life time spent in typically Hoosier small towns

where he was a grocery clerk, lawyer, fire chief, weekly newspaper editor and publisher, a bank cashier and incidentally a piano piayer. The Lieutenant Governor, who is now the Democratic candidate for Governor, hails from Starke County where he has lived all the 57 years of his life, the last 30 at Knox. Henry's friends tell many stories about his earlier struggles, especially the one about his sleeping with all of a bank’s money for several weeks. While he was a cashier at the State Bank of Hamlet at the age of 23, burglars wrecked the vault so Henry took all the institution’s cash, put it into a small suit case and carried it around with him everywhere he went. He slept with the suit case in bed with him for several weeks while a new vault was being installed. ” ” ”

N 1908, Mr. Schricker, still in his 20s, was made editor and publisher of the Starke County Democrat. The first week as editor found him ,in a tight spot regarding the business of meeting the payroll. “We met it that week with some difficulties and furthermore we never missed one all the years I was there,” he said.

from it:

VERY interesting digest of statements made b; appeared a few days#ago in The New York Tim:

is illuminating and as it does not appear to have ha culation through other channels I am setting forth he)

Wendell Willkie As this digest a very wide cir- > a few excerpts

“Attack is bist than ever.” (Willkie at Philadelpi:ia, Oct. 4, 1940.)

. . . the United States is not in danger of immediate attack. J? (Willkie at New York, Oct. 8, 1940) ” ” ”

« «+ the Administration has done a pretty good job with reference to the foreign problem.” (Willkie in The New York

“The loneliness of the Mr.Lindley 504 Staves is a direct result of the foreign policies of the last eight years.” (Willkie at San Francisco, Sept. 21, 1940.) ” ” ” “The New Deal stands for doing what has to be done by spending as much money as possible. I

propose to do it by spending as little money as possible.” ((Willkie at Elwood, Aug. 17, 1940.) “The primary criticism of the New Deal is not the size of its spending. This might be much curtailed; but we ourselves wanted it big, and even after economies it will remain big.” (Willkie in “Fortune,” April, 1940.)

# ” 2 . the New Deal has failed in its program of economic rehabilitation. . . . The farmers are

victims because many of them are forced to subsist on what is virtually a dole, under centralized direction from Washington.” (Willkie at Elwood, Aug. 17, 1940.) ; “... 1 will not take away any of ‘the Bi Tn gained by agriculture during the last few years. I do not favor changing the present farm program unless a better one is gradually evolved.” (Willkie at Des Moines, Aug. 6, ew) “I do own five farms. . . . have almost gone broke i them. . ..” (Willkie at Syracuse, Oct. 14, 1940. “1 five farms in ‘Indiana, and I make a modest profit on them.” (Willkie at Coffeyville, Sept. 16, 1940.)

“ . . . that is one reason why your factories up here in New England are idle while new factories that compete with you are being built in Mississippi, Arkansas and Alabama . . . In Spending your money (the New favored other

of the country a, your expense.” (Willkie at Fall River, Oct. 11, 1940.) “The Alabam: Power Co. can remove industries from the Nurth because it is a. lusiness concern, but the TVA cannot retheve them because it is part of our Guvernment .. . we maintain an office in New York . . to secure the removal of Northern industries to this area . . . in the past decade . the Alab: ama. Power Co. aided directly or indirectly in the location. of 245 industries in 129 different communities in your state.” (Willkie at Birmingham, 1934.) These excerpt: appeared in a full-page adverti:ement paid: for by the Committce of Regular Republicans for th: Re-Election of Franklin D: Rocszvelt. The conclusion reached i1 the advertiseent was that "Villkie is either “hopelessly confised” or “deliberately insincere.” Some of these [aired statements are not direct contradictions. Grant that we should allow to office-seekers—as; to the rest of us—a certain amcunt of free play, for, closely examined, the words of almost everyone who speaks or writes in quantity would yield at least a few examples of contradictions, real or apparent. President Roosevelt's voluminous words and deeds are vulnerable to such attack, buf chiefly because of the exigencies of action in difficult times, When one thing didn’t work he had to try something else. We do expect, however, that a Presidential candidate will set forth a reasonably consistent and coherent program or viewpoint. As to whether Willkie has done so, the excerpts published above are highly revelatory.

But when the votes of the first ballot at the convention were counted, Mr. Schricker was far out in front, giving many of the State House politicians a severe jolting. “How did he do it?” they asked. The Lieutenant Governor answered that himself by explaining that he merely “went around the state making as many friends as I could.” His friends have devised a cam=paign slogan: “Henry, you're the man we need.” They went back 37 years to get that one. His | associates said those were the words used by his employer when asked to take a job as editor and the same when bank ‘directors asked him to become cashier.
