Gaines, Lexington, Va., as patriotism, national unity and “a resurgency of respect for our past.” Dr. Gaines, president of Washington and Lee university spoke io a crowd of some 2,000 including hundreds of United Daughters of the Confederacy here for their annual convention, at the unveiling of a statue of the Con federate president. Standing before the huge bronze and stone monument erected on the state capital grounds only a few feet from an inlaid star which marks the •pot where Davis stood when he was •worn in February 18, 1861, Dr. Gaines said: “Today we proudly exalt before the eyes of the world the figure of Jef ferson Davis not because we feel that he stands in need of renewed vindi cation but because of pride in him and gratitude for him and our confi dence that ultimately full justice will be done to him. “But there is an even larger sig nificance, in this day’s proceedings. Patriotism, certainly in the moments of national peril; is first of all a thing of the spirit; and the spirit of Ameri- iere'i what out cuitomers te ui— Oi:r Ins-I ?I»I • r Talf Sv linf? has no **r~p:«Sre«l look."— - i 50 or witlblo sram.

Hoey tonight sent six high way patrolmen to the $6,500,000 Nan tahala dam project to prevent furth er rioting, and ordered additional of ficers to stand by for any emergen cies. Construction work on the 270-foot dam project, an import" it link in President Roosevelt’s plan for a ser ies of power projects to aid in the national defense, was halted 1 after a series of fist fights between workers from New York and workers from the South and West. The southerners or dered the “Yankees” out to make more employment for natives. B. R. Putman, construction super intendent for the Utah i Construc tion company, which is building the dam, appealed for protection for the northern workers after six of them were thrown into a creek and nearly 100 drew their pay and left with their families. Most of the men being forced out, he said, were skilled work men who could not be found among the native workers. Fear More Trouble Hoey, in Raleigh, after telephone conferences with Putman and Ser- iff A. B. Slagle of Macon county, fear ed there might be trouble at the dam tonight. Putman said the “place is virtually under mob rule and we can’t operate with a set-up like that.” Sla gle already had augmented a force of deputy sheriffs at the scene. Nearly 700 men were employed on the project, with about 100 of them skilled tunnel workers described by Putman as “key men.” Fights broke out yesterday, were quieted last night, and flamed anew today with native workers picketing various parts of the dam project to prevent the northern ers from going to their jobs.
