DUE RALEIGH LETTER
( Continued from Pace Two)
is expected to have it ready tor
members of the Legislature when It
.meets. ?'
The State board of Assessment
has planned for a meeting with
county tax supervisors starting on
Wednesday of this week and con
tinning three days. Re-valuation of
property is to be made between the
first of January and the 31st *of
March and plans for uniform pro
cedure are to be perfected at the
approaching meeting. It is said. A
program of general discussion by
the county supervisors, with each
topic presented by a member of the
State Board, has been prepared and
the work of putting on valuable sug
gestions in the counties touching re
valuation will start early in the new
year. A meeting of the State Board
of Equalisation is called for Thurs
day and the members are expected
to take in the conference of county
officials "from the side-lines."
In November 1339 State revenue
collections amounted to 1547,301.17
for general fund purposes. Last
month these collections reached the
low level of 9233,301.84. The high
way fund collections last month
were $1,239,892.21. In November,
1929, the amount garnered for this
purpose aggregated $1,185,989.21,
or an Increase of $54,108. Federal
collections tor the month were $2,
974,385.99 less than for the month
of November last year, according to
figures compiled by Collector Oris
som's office. The reduced collections
are taken by officials as a reflection
of currant economic conditions.
Last year the Federal government
set aside $1,718,819 for road con
struction la North Carolina under
the proviso that the State must
match dollar for dollar the money
thus apropriated. The State, accord
ing to Federal statistics, used only
$798,86$, thus depriving itself of
government funds in the sum of
$1,018,281 because it failed to live
up to its part of the "compact."
Now Chairman R. A. Doughton, of
the State Highway Commission sug
gests a loan of a million dollars
from the Government to bo used as
the Stilts fund is toward meeting
the federal appropriation. At its
present rate of Income Chairman
Doughton says North Carolina
should have Its State Highway Sys
tem of mora than 9,900 miles com
pleted wlthfn five years, at a cost
of $31,434,941. During this period
the cost of bridges to be build would
abrogate $4,592,700; for top-oolllng
roads, $13,898,98$; oil treating. $5.
847",778; and ipavtag. $9vS8 4.000.
The State constructed system at
present contains 8,898 miles of high
ways and has added to the system
mileage built by counties. The
majority of the roads to bo built
will he of the lower type of con
struction, It is said, including ap
proximately 3,004 miles which are
yet below standard. Governor Qsrd
>1 rMtr let font I
nor would hare
on the road appropriations made 1
more flexible, to states may meet
requirements.
The Southern Society of New
York City wll lhave the privilege of
heariu North Carolina's Senator
Meet Josiah W. Bailey on Wednes
day evening. December 10, who ac
cepted an invitation from that or
ganisation to speak at its annual
dinner. On his return Mr. Bailey
contemplates a stop over in Wash
ington and a look-in on Congress,
of which he will become a member
on March 4, 1931, succeeding Sen
ator F. M. Simmons. He. may also
put in a few licks against the con
firmation of F R. McNInch as a
member of the Federal Power Com
mission. Senator Overman has al
ready heard from the Raleigh Dem
ocrat In opposition to the Anti
Smith leader.
In his biennial report to Oovernor
Gardner and members of the Gen
eral Assembly, Dr. A. T. Allen. State
Superintendent of Public Instruc
tions. advocates changes in modern
ising the present school system,
which now Involves annual expendi
tures of 130,000,000 for more than
860,000 pupils. The Superintendent
recommends consolidations of ad
ministrative and spending units, re
ductions of districts and uniformi
ty of terms. He would also like a
financial arrangement to bring the
actual tax average nearer the level 1
for participating in the equalising]
fund for the constitutional six I
months term. The average tax for
maintaining the six months term In
counties last year was 49.3 cents,
while the participating basis was 30
~ stor Allen i
cents. Doctor Allen is naming no
figures to fit these particular items,
leaving that to the Educational Com
mission's report later to be sub
mitted. A total of 1(1.013 more
children are in schools operating
eight months or longsr now than
there were in 1036-36. during which
period 469,080 children, both white
and colored, were answering the
"call to books" eight months In the
year. In 1030-30 the number at
tending such schools was 800,000.
There will be no change in the
textbooks now In use in the public
schools for 1031-33 sessions, the
State Board of Education having re
