- G. O. P. CHAIRMAN
(Continued from page one)
introduced Robert H. McNeill to
the convention and he began his
address with remarks of rever
ence for Wilkes county, his na
tive land.
The theme of his address was
the urge that Republicans have
vide in the records of their par
ty. He pointed out how the ad
ministrations of Lincoln, McKin
ley and Teddy Roosevelt, Hard
ing and Coolidge had responded
to Uie challenge to lift the na-
school system 'n North Carolina
for requiring school teachers “to
pledge allegiance to the New Deal
party, both In their vote and In
their financial support"; con
demned “cloakroom politicians
who take from people the right
to elect whom they want to man
age affairs of local,,government;
condemned undemocratic princi
ples of administering relief and
public assistance and many other
acts of the opposition party. The
resolutions will be publis.hed in
this newspaper Tliursday.

er purchasers’ who had failed to
make their payments.
He said of the three -and ohe-
half million people In North
Carolina 900,000 are' school chil
dren. Of these one-third live In
the towns and one third live near
enough to school to walk and the
other third, 320,000. ride to
school In 44,000 buses. He said
sources of taxes are as follows;
Inheritance tax, $750,000 per
year; Income tax, 11,000,000 per
year; Franchise tax. $8,000,000
per year: License and privilege,
$1,.'50,000 per year; liquor tax,
$900,000 per year; sales tax,
811,000,000, per year. In all 39
to 40 million per year.
Of this amount 5 1-2 million Is
paid annually on the State’s debt;
tor schools J26,000,000 this year
and 27 million next year.
The speaker urged that people
be as cautious about the tax sys-
ter as a business man is about
his business. He thinks a proper
tax system and good lal)Or condi
tions will do more than anything
else to bring busines.s to the
state.
J. B. McCoy called attention to
the election of Dr. Fred Hubbard
as president of North Carolina
Hospital Association at its meet
ing in Winston-Salem recently.
Richard Finley, chairman of

ments with the Briar Hopper

boro school auditorium May 10
and stated that the club would
