LOBBYISTS HIT BY TOM COOPER
(Continued From Page One)
put forth by some of those actively connected with the campaign of at
least one of the (other gubernato- rial) candidates.”
"I need only say that such state-
ment is wholly and viciously false he said. “Several years ago
I appeared as a lawyer before legis- lative committees on behalf of man-
ufacturers and operators of machines
vending such merchandise as pea- nuts and other products raised and
sold by farmers of North Carolina
This clearly is a legitimate and
ethical appearance as an attorney
before legislative committees, and
has been the foundation of a false
and malicious rumor that I have ap-
peared on behalf of slot machines of
the gambling variety." Gubernatorial Candidate Lee
Gravely, speaking to a group of
farmers in Apex, said that 1 the
problems facing North Carolina to-
day are practical ones, and we can
pass all the laws they can put on
the books, but out situation cannot
be relieved without first considering
the farmer, especially the tobacco
farmers.” ; “Can Do Much” ! “The governor of North Carolina
can do much toward the solution
of any economic problem facing the
people of the state," he said, point- ing to the tobacco situation as a
"serious problem” needing the at-
tention "of a man well-versed in the
tobacco business. “So far as I
know,” he added, “I am the only- candidate who knows anything about
the tobacco business.” Broughton spoke yesterday in
Mocksville, where he said that “as
the chosen standard bearer of the
party, I can and will proclaim the
magnificent record of the democratic party under President Roosevelt.”
He referred to the “notable leader-
ship of our great president, whose
heart has beat true to the hopes and
aspirations and needs of the great masses of the people and whose
leadeship has lifted the party to
new heights of political achieve-
ment.” Two other gubernatorial candi-
dates, Gravely and Paul Grady, have
endorsed a third term for President
.Roosevelt.
! AUTO FATALITY ; LAURENS,. S. C„ May 4. — A. Haskell Sanders, 26, son of Mrs. A. H. Sanders of Laurens, was in- jured fatally today in an automo- bile accident.
The South American oven-bird’s -nest of mud frequently weighs as
much as nine pounds.
To Talk Here
Robert G- Le Tourneau, world traveler and business man, will
speak in Wilmington at the Pres-
byterian Church of the Covenant at 11 o’clock on Sunday morning, May 12, and at New Hanover High school at 3 o'clock, and at Tabernacle Bap- tist church, sixth and Ann streets, at the 8 o'clock evening service.
The Wilmington Bible conference, which sponsors Tourneau's visit to
Wilmington, says that the speaker is widely experienced as an out-
standing Christian layman as well as a business man, and that his
message is expected to be inspira- tional and challenging to those in- terested in bringing about better conditions in business and religious life.
Expected to arrive in Wilmington in his own private airplane Satur-
day afternoon, Mr. Tourneau is said to be in such demand as a speaker that the filling of his engagements is possible only by use of the plane. Two of his manufacturing enter-
prises are at Peoria, 11!.. and Stock- ton, Calif.

NAZI ARMY PUSHES TOWARD NARVIK
(Continued From Page One) But from Mosjoen to Narvik, the experts believed, the German ad- vance would be extremely hazzard- ous, as it would involve traversing difficult country, expose the Ger- mans to Allied attacks from the sea and necessitate ferrying across a
network of fjords and lagoons. These Swedish experts thought it
would be easy for the Allies, if they complete occupation of the Narvik area, to block any German attempts to drive to the Arctice port provided the Allies maintain a sufficient and active naval force off the coast north of Mosjoen.
Virtual Standstill Norwegian resistance in central
Norway came to a virtual standstill today after Colonel O. B. Getz, act- ing commander of Norwegian forces in this area issued an order saying that the fight against the Germans was finished.
Disorganized and disspirited Nor- wegian units continued to offer scat- tered resistance, but Swedish re- por s said these Norwegians lack- ed arms.
A dispatch from the Swedish-Nor- wegian border said 130 Norwegians
Constable Candidate
FRANKLIN LEROY CASTEEN
Franklin Leroy Casteen announc-
ed Saturday that he is a candidate for Constable, Wilmington Town- ship. Casteen said that his plat- form would be efficient execution of the duties of the office.
He is a native of Wilmington, and has lived here all his life. He is a
former member of Co. I, 120 Infan-
try, National Guard, an active mem-

fit amateur fights, and is the broth- er of Carter Casteen, former South- eastern Golden Glove champion.
Casteen is 24, and is sole support of his mother and younger brother and sister.
fought off a Nazi forqe for hours
near Roros yesterday but were ev-
entually forced to retreat in the
lace of a powerful German on-
slaught. The collapse of Allied resistance
in central and southern Norway caused thousands of Norwegian civilians to fleet to Sweden, par-
ticularly along the northern border. Fate Unknown
The Stockholm newspaper Afton-
bladt published dispatches today de-
scribing the return to the Swedish frontier of only 15 cars and 25
staff men out of a 26-car, 56-man
ambulance unit sent into Norway by the English Quakers. The reports said the fate of the missing cars
and men was unknown, but that
they might have left Namsos with the British army.
More Germans flooded into Nor-
way. Reports from Goteborg, Swe- dish port on the Kattegat opposite the northern tip of Denmark, said six or seven German transports, convoyed by eight destroyers, were
steaming northward into Norwe- gian waters.

GET INTO A CHRYSLER AND 'k&e AWAY!
Why shift gears? That’s the question you hear today, wherever motor cars are sold.
For Chrysler’s Fluid Driving is so much simpler smoother ... so much more
quiet and effortless. If you try it, you’ll never want a car without it.
Smooth as oil. One fan-like wheel drives another by forcing oil against it. You just touch the throttle to go... touch the brake to stop. No work ... no jerk... no noise.
Why Shift Gears ... or have them shifted mechanically?
When you can have the work taken out of driving so completely, why shift gears ... or have them shifted mechanically?
Only two moving parts revolving in oil are all you need to work this miracle. It’s
standard equipment on the Crown Im- perial and only $38 extra on the Traveler and New Yorker models.
Along with Fluid Drive, you get a com- bination of other Chrysler advantages ...
Two-tone upholstery ... Airfoam cush- ions Easy-Entry doors ; Scientific weight distribution... Floating Power... Superfinished parts ... Plastic enamel fin- ish ... Aero-type shock absorbers ... Tin coated pistons.
Why be without any of them? See your Chrysler dealer He’s anxious to give you a demonstration, no matter what car
you drive or expect to buy.
