PAGE TWO NEWS OF PAST WEEST ABOUT STATE CAPITAL Bv II. R. DUNN AG AN (Special Correspondent) RALEIGH, N. C.?Mileages and Pvnpnrlituri'Q from (Ha vr,f?n DIV) cot aside by the 1935 General Assembly for maintaining State-designated streets tlirough municipalities have been set up tentatively by the State Highway division and sent to all officials of ail of the about 360 municipalities for any suggestion they may want to make. Chairman Capus M. W&ynick announces. The set-up will be held open until September 1st for any changes that may be desired and unless valid reasons are shown, it will then be made permanent and work started on that basis for this year, Mr. Waynick says. He hopes but does not expect the plan to be entirely satisfactory. It is arranged according to engineering need and not on a population basis. He suggests that the N. C. League of Municipalities, which sponsored State maintenance of numbered highways in cities and towns, designate groups to receive .and weigli measures sugguested. The mileage thus to be maintained is 875.53, to cost about $470,546.10 and through municipalities with 1,047,845 people in them. Twenty-nine municipalities, usually the larger ones, ask that they be permitted to maintain their numbered streets with their own organizations but with State fund3. These have 213.29 miies oi streets, estimated to cost $247,094.70. and with populations totaling 598,396. The others, about 33o, have 044.24 miles designated, to cost about 5253.451 40. and have populations totaling 449,440 Watauga County municipalities included in the list are as follows: j Boone, 2.55 miles; cost, $966 00; pop-! ulatioii, 1,295. Blowing Rock, 4.40 j miles: cost, $1,401.00; population. 503. | EHRIXGHAFSKS ON VACATION j Governor Ehringhaus, Mrs. Ehring-1 haus, Mrs Rush Jolly, daughter, and] Biuehcr Jr., on a vacation motor trip j through Canada, visited the Dionne | quintuplets last week, reminding that the Governor and Mrs. Ehringhaus have 'wins, Mrs Jolly and Haughton, the latter not with tncm. They also saw Mrs. Thomas B. McLeod. wife of a former Governor of South Carolina, who saw their N. C. 1 license and located them in a legislative hall they i were visiting. The party will spend' some time in New York on their leisurely return in about two weeks FORESTALLS LYNCHING A wire to Governor Ehringhaus that a negro was about to be lynched in a section of Vance County, not far from the Franklin County line and near the place at which Govan Ward, negro, was lynched a few weeks ago, caused hasty action, only to find til at the message was a hoax. Charles G. Powell, private secretary, in the absence of Governor Ehringhaus, asked Vance officers to investigate and had 4U highway patrolmen ready to rush to the spot at short notice. Officers reported within half an hour that there was no trouble where the message suggested. New officers are trying to locate the perpetrator of the hoax. Highway patrolmen have been used three times recently, twice to prevent violence, but did not reach Franklin in time to prevent the lynching. SUPREME COURT TO CONVENE When the N.

STATE POLITICS Politics is simmering, but not heatj ing up with the weather along now. t A. H. (Sandvl Graham qnnlro in iliA county commissioners at Wrightsville and Clyde R Hocy addressed the sheriffs at Hickory last week. Both are gubernatorial aspirants. John F. McRae, Charlotte, another, took occasion iast week to brand as false the charge that he was a stop-gup for Hoey, saying he announced before : Hoey did and had not conferred with > 1 lucj/ or Sriy or ilia known Supporters. Coi. T. L. Kirkpatrick, Charlotte, tong ago annoiinced, is keeping quiet. Prognosticators say that Graham is sure to get a heavy vote in the east, where "moist" evidence is pleni tiful, at any rate, in spots, because he has come out for modification of the State liquor laws. Conversely, they say. Hoey will be strong in the west, in which, many maintain, there are not half a dozen counties which would vote wet in a referendum. Hoey is a known personal and political dry ar.d has fought the dry battles. He has not mentioned this issue, but is \j\-Sf m 7 If 'W J J J % /EACH| f THIS WEEK ONLY '<S?

Many believe, however, that this State, if j allowed to vote, should again vote | dry, although there has been a noticeable change in sentiment in the pa3t six months. I'Ol LTItV QUESTION Is it profitable to feed moist ma3h to poultry throughout the entire year ? Answer: There is very little to be gained by this practice. However, the moist mash has an important place in the feeding at some time during the year. It is used to stimulate egg production and is fed the early hatched pullets to prevent a partial or complete molt. It also hastens production in the fall of the late hatched pullets and keeps up production of j the laying hens through the fall 1 months. Feed ahout three pounds of j the mash to each 100 birds for best J results. * I i 1 Am 4kif Esse ai ?SSO ^he Lowest Coti sump tip 4/upfUj fthtoiittej. so \ oil is concerned, dt four things.
