M MCOCd-ClAM BtfcUir ENFORCING LAW The people go to the ballot box and name whom they wish to go to Raleigh to make laws for government and proetction of society and the regulation of the conduct of the individual. Not all laws enacted meet with highest approval. The as sembly meets every other year ? so that needed laws may be enacted, chang 5 made, and useless laws repealed. This is preliminary to the] matter for present considera tion: Around a third of a cen tun ago the people of North Caroli na, a majority, decided that the manufacture and sale of liqucr in the State must be abol shed or strictly regulated. Laws were enacted to that end. As time passed sentiment toward the rse of alcholic li quors changed, but not to the extent of open advocacy of their cse nor the annulment of the penalty for making and sellinj. A generation ;dter uie enact - 1 ment of the most stringent reg- 1 ulatory act, governing t handling of liquor, ever pi a , on the statute books of* Stat*, a Lam ess has grown The last Legislature opened c way for the people to decide question, lc ;ally, by counties a s a unit ? establishing Liquor Stores where the liquror could be bought and sold legally. On August 17th Alamance county said by a derisive vote that it did not want Liquor Stores. Since the establishment of the Alamance County Court, dis posing of casesjgrowing out of the manufacture, snle and use of liquor have predominated. The County Court J udgee bore downjon these lightly as decency would permit, not hard enough io deter all who chose to follow "bootlegging." After the August election presiding Judge Cooper A. Hall gave notice that in accordance with the mandate of the people he would do his part toward the enforcement of prohibition. Last Monday Judge Hall handed out a few samples of what he meant. Largely in creased tines and prison terms were imposed, in some cr both. He made jood his prom ise. It is hardl." necessary to Bay a commotion w?s created, accompanied by imprecations. These lines express the reac tion: "No thief e'er felt the halter drawn, With a.gocd opinion of the law." To make a law effective and a. terror to evil doers, it must be rigidly enforce i.

He was called the tiuancier t>. .tesman. He served as Sec ietary of the Treasury under three Pieeident's, and >* reput ed to have been the great -it since Alexander Hamilton. When appointed by Prcsi Harding h i s name was act known in political circles, buw he was known to the bu?it-c-s world as one of the wor.u'. riche?- men. So quiet aud i u ostt-ntatiou-s was he that news papers and newspaper readers knew little about him. It toon came out that he was a very rich man. After the world war the na tional debt was the biggest it had ever b'en. He began to pay it off and liquidated about eight billions. Mr. Hoover thought he was paying it off too rapid'y. That may have bad something to do with the 1928 crash. Mr. Hoover tendered him the appointment o f Minister t o Great Britain and he resigned the Treasury portfolio. He was banker, manufactur er, industrialist ? and had to do with the business management, as director, president, or chair man of more than three score corporations. Among bis principal interests were manufacture of aluminum nd the Gulf Oil Co. His estimated wealth is any .. here from 200 million up to a billion. He had a brother, who died a few rears ago, that was also very wealthy and was his business associate. He owned what critic con sidered the most valuable art collection in the world. This, valued at $50,000,000, he has given to the city of Washing ton. He has established a num ber of beneficient foundations or trusts which he has en- j dowed in sums aggregating some -200 millions. During his lifetime he gave ~ay for various causes around ?0 millions. It is disclosed that be left personal gifts of about $ ISO, 000. Tbe inheritance tax to be p. d from the estate will amoun' > about 20 millions. The Aluminum plant in St ley county at Baden on the Y kin river largely belongs to 2 ' imiic se Mellon estate.
