Raleigh, May 11.?Qovernor Mc
Lean's announced determination to
hold expenses of the State within Us
income was demonstrated in a practi
cal manner last week when he Issued
a statement to all department heads
regarding trimming their budgets. The
Governor was on solid ground tor he
spoke facts. Outlining to each de
partment and Institution the allow
ances made for their support during
the year, the Governor called atten
tion to the fact that the State's in
come was falling .behind anticipated
ccllectlons and that, as director of
the budget, it was necessary to ex
ercise the power vested in him to
make the expenditures square with
the income. His announcement means
that unless income of the state shows
a large increase, and this is unlikely,
the amount allowed each department
i and Institution will be cut approxl-!
mately seven percent, for the fiscal
'year from July 1, 1925, to July 1, 1926.
During the week the State High
way Commission let contracts for
thirteen road projects in various sec
tions of the State, Seven other pro
jects will be held in abeyance for the
present until lower bids are obtained.
The tragic affect of the failure of
. the Mattamuskeet Lake drainage pro
'? ject in Hyde county was emphasised
during the week when the Department
of Commerce issued a statment show
ing that farm lands in the county has
decreased in value 9900,000 from 1920
through 1924, This is belieijed to
have been largely caused by the over
flow of Lake Mattamuskeet and the
flooding of some of the most fertile
land in the State. A contract recent
ly has been let to a mid-west concern
by which it is hoped to reclaim this
land for agriculture by properly drain
ing the area.
Gutzon Borglum came back into the
Raleigh limelight with a speech at
Meredith college in which he asserted

sociation leading to his being dis
missed. At the same time a State

The Raleigh police started a drive
against vice during the week when a
list of the women engaged in Immoral

but on Friday the chaplain came back
with a vehement statement in the
same paper to the effect that he had
been misquoted and "half truths" had

porter he had nothing to say for pub
lication.
