Shlpman Raleigh, October 2#?The contesl between employes of the State and the Salary and Wage Commission was the center of Interest In Raleigh dur ing the past week. The horrible tragedy at Rex Hospital which took the toll of a baby's life by burning also was the object of sympathetic interest. The Governor made ad dresses during the week to tho Negro State Fair at Raleigh and the Rail road Trainmen at Charlotte and then departed for Washington to appear before the Ways and Means Commit tee of Congress and oppose the in heritance taxes. The will of J. 13. L'uke made public interested North Carolinians because of the large sums which were added to Duke's en diwment fund. The will also made further provisions for charitable and religious objectives in North Carolina. The Salary and Wage Commission withdrew from its stand abolishing six of the holidays established by the legislature when the Attorney Gener al advised the tody it had no power to undo what the General Assembly had done. The Commission got back at the employes, however, by stating that it was considering cutting the an nual holiday' to six days unless the department heads co-operated with it in reducing the number of legal holi days. The matter is still at issue. Hie Commission had a hearing on salaries and classifications last week and decided to give consideration to a few appeals bpt denied the great majority. The State Highway Com mission estimates it will lose 100 trained engineer who had been promis ed salary increases but which were uenied by the Wage body. The tragedy in which the ten hours old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Smith was burned to death aroused Raleigh citixens. The child was placed In a receiving basket at Rex Hospital immediately after birth and died a few hours later. It was then discovered that a heating pad had been left ii> the basket, and that death i bad resulted from burns. The Coro ners jury held that the cause of death was negligence and carelessness at the hospital but did not file any cri minal charges against any one. Two nurses who had charge of the child ire under suspension at the hospital fending further investigation. The Governor's address to tho <fgro State Fair applauded the great progress accomplished by the race since the days of slavery. The Gov ?rnor, however, expressed the idea hat the further progress of the negro vas dependent on the continuance of i state governed by the white men. The Fair was said to be a wonderful exhibit and the negro officials de it rvlng of much credit. Governor McLean travelled to Charlotte the middle of the week i-bere he addressed the Railway Trainmen In session there. The iovernor lauded the progress made ( v labor and also commended the rainmen for their devotion to duty ( ;hfch he said had been the means of taking the American railroads "one 1 the wonders of the world." Friday fr. McLean appeared in Washington 5 urge abolition of the Federal tax n Inheritances as unfair and an at smpt on the Federal government's art to take one of the state sources f taxation. He appeared with several ther governors to support the stand i the matter taken by Secretary lellon and they appear to have been uccessful for the committee will ecommend a bill about in line with i hat the Governor's desired. The Will of James B. Duke takes nother opportunity of making this reat business man and philanthro. ist secure for time to come in the egard of his fellow men. Mr. Duke pft another 117,000,000 to Duke ,'niversity which already will benefit andsomely by the income from the 40.000,030 Duke foundation.
