I saw no reason whatever for want ing to catch flies, but these words stuck, and I thought of them as I read “Further Letters of Queen Victoria” who during her 64 years on the British throne revealed herself as be ing as human as the rest of us. i Her husband said in the early days of their marriage, “I am the husband but not the master of the houm.” But he proved himself adept at handlmg people, for later ho wrote M I only wish you to bo as happy as wo are; more I could not wish you,” and Victoria avowed over and over again, pub licly and privately, during the 21 years be fore death claimed her prince consort, that she adored het husband, the father of her children. Carnegie "It's Time That Counts” But what impressed me even more was the art of handling people achieved by her prime minister, Disraeli, Lord Beacons- field. He knew that she was an imperious woman; knew that she had had many dissensions with those preceding him. In his first letter, which was the letter of a genius, he wrote to his queen, whom he wanted to guide but knew he must obey, “Your Majesty’s life has been passed in constant communication with great men . . . This rare and choice experience must give your Majesty an advantage in judgment which few living persons, and no living Princes, can rival.” One wonders if He had reference to the then heir to the throne, the Prince of Wales, later Edward VII, when he referred to “no living Princes” for as all knew, the queen and her son were not in agreement on most matters of state, nor in personal affairs. Naturally she would be glad that England’s prime minister saw her point of view. You can judge for yourself whether Disraeli adopted the right tactics as you read what the queen wrote about him later; “Mr. Disraeli has achieved his high position entirely by his ability .... I have nothing but praise for him. One thing that predisposed me in his favor is his great admiration for my beloved Albert and his recognition of, and his great respect for, Albert's great char acter.” And Disraeli continued to enjoy her trust and confidence to his dying day. You can see that Disraeli believed in that maxim about the flies. Southern Rose StesUinf Silue/L by Manchester Open Stock Pattern!

Thomas, Wage Control ' Compromise Is Reported Stalled Washington, M&rch 13. — Eric Johnson’s effort to make a com promise peace in the wage control met adamant opposition today from organized labor. The economic stabilization ad ministrator, in week-long confer ences behind closed doors, was un derstood to be pressing labor and industry to accept a remodeled Wage Stabilization board with limited power to settle labor dis putes. Some industry figures were said to lean to such a solution provid ed the board handled disputes aris ing only from wages and other “economic issues.” But reporters got this unofficial word from both AFL and CIO sources: “That isn’t good enough.” Union leaders, it was learned, are insisting that the aboard have jurisdiction in any dispute which threatens defense production, even those involving, such “non-econom- ic” issues as seniority, grievances and union security. The board, orginially set up with three members each from industry, crippled by labor’s refusal to let union representatives serve. And industry spokesmen have indicated they will refuse to serve if the board is given unlimited jurisdic tion to settle disputes. Officials were discouraged, mean time, by a new wholesale price in dex which hit a new all-time high. Wholesale prices rose three-tenths of one per cent in the week ended March 6, to a level 20.2 per cent over a year ago and 17 per cent above,last June. This dimmed hopes that the price advance was broken. In the two previous weeks the index paused and dipped slightly. In the new re port by the Bureau of Labor Statis tics the wholesale index stood at 183.5—meaning that prices were 93.5 per cent above the base year, 1926. SC Ratifies Constitutional Amendment Belatedly Columbia, March 14. — South Carolina legislative activity yester day centered exclusively on belated ratification of the 22nd amendment to the U. S. Constitution and on an unsuccessful bill to up the mini mum age for automobile drivers from 14 to 16. Ratification of the amendment which limits presidents to two terms but which already is in effect after approval by_ the necessary 36 states, was routine. It came through the formal signing of an act passed last week. South Carolina thus became the 37th state to ratify the amendment, but the action at this late date has no real bearing on the situation. Without a formality of a roll call, the house killed by a 57-25 vote a bill to increase age limit for driv ing. The vote followed a short de bate. Rep. Evans of Spartanburg, the bill’s author, pleaded that auto mobile driving by 14 and 15-year- olds is “a danger to the general pub lic ” He claimed that the majority un favorable report on the bill from the house education committee was the result of highway department opposition. The department, he said, has reported a low accident rate among 14 and 15-year-old driv ers. “Yet, there’s a high accident rate among the 16 and 17-year-olds be cause by the time they get to be 16, because they have been driving for two years, they think they know it all,” he declared. “If they started at 16, maybe by the time they were 18, and had gained driving confidence, they might have more maturity of judg ment.” He estimated that “80 to 90 per cent of the parents” of the 14-16 age group "want this bill passed."
