MORRISON CLOSED
TERM YESTERDAY
Record of Achievements of His
Administration—Road Pro
gram First Proposal.
Governor Cameron Morrison’s term
of office expired yesterday. Morrison
was the second successful guberna
torial aspirant under the State-wide
primary system. The late Governor
Bickett was the first. Governor Mor
rison started out in a triangural con
test, his opponent being O. Max Gar
dner, of Shelby, and Robert N.
Page, of Biscoe, former member of
Congress from the Seventh Congres
sional District. Page was eliminated
in the first primary and in the sec
ond Mr. Morrison won over Gardner
by a majority of 2,200 votes.
In the general election in Novem
ber 1220 Morrison defeated his Re
publican opponent, John J. Parket,
by a majority of 80,000, this being
the largest majority ever polled by a
gubernatorial candidate up to that
time. Tins election was the first in
which women participated in North
Carolina.
Governor Morrison was inaugurat
ed on January 12, 1021, in the Ra
leigh auditorium. At the ti of his
election he was practici. ■ - >' ,n
Charlotte. He was born u..d reared,
however, in Richmond county. Gov
ernor Morrison addrcsse. .no Geneial
Assembly January 2sth. H>21, and
outlined his policies.
A re ur.ie of Governor Morrison s
administration as (mined in Sun
day's News and Ob vor follows:
Put Road 1 aw First
One of the first ilungs Governor
Morrison did was to urge the pas*
sa^re of a -iateu V road law. Senti
ment fur this ha i already crystal izon
to a a arked dor e. Various organi
zations had boo: at work, looking
toward the w. king out of plans
whereby the • .ire state would be
most benefited. Prominent among
these organizations was the North
Carolina Good TZoads Association.
However, up to this time, there
has been no coordination of the
forces necessary to a road program
that would meet with universal ap
proval and at the same time serve
the interests of the entire state. For
instance, there was some difficulty
experienced in arriving at an agree
ment as to where the line should be
drawn between the functions of the
counties and those of the state it
self. Some favored a highway system
that would take the counties into
active participation, making them
share a part of the responsibility for
raising sufficient revenue. Others
were of the opinion that whatever
was done should be done by the
State; that the money should be rais
ed by the state, and that the state,
through whatever agencies it should
bring into play, should be respons
ible for the building, maintenance
and financing of a system that would
link up the county seats.
This latter school of thought pre
vailed, in the main, when legislation
was enacted. The line between the
state and the counties was sharply
drawn. This did not mean that the
counties were relieved of the respon
sibility of providing roads. But it
did mean that the state was to be
responsible thereafter for the main
arteries of highway travel.
Governor Morrison came out for
an initial bond issue of $.>0,000,000
for state highways. Many conferences
followed. The governor failed to re
cede from his position when some of
those interested in the passage of an
adequate state highway law favored
only $20,000,000 as a starter. He
held that this sum would be grossly
inadequate. As a matter of fact, at
that time, the fate of any bill calling
for a bond issue of many millions
for any purpose was by no means
certain. This probably, gave rise to
the advocacy of a $20,000,000 to be
gin with.
When the statewide road bill was
finally passed, however, it called for
the issuance of $50,000,000 bonds.
During the period of open discussion
that preceded the enactment of road
legislation all opposition was grad
ually conquered, and when the vote
was taken there were but few dis
senters in either branch of the gen
eral assembly.
Thus Governor Morrison won his
fight for the highway legislation . he
sought.
Question of Taxation
The question ol taxation was not
so easily solved. Governor Morrison,
in his message of January 29, had
registered his protest against any
form of taxation that would levy
directly upon real estate and per
sonal property for state purposes.
Some favored an ad valorem tax.
The new governor opposed it. His
views prevailed in this and a state
tax department, headed by a com
missioner of revenue, was created, in
accordance with his recommendation
to the General Assembly. To fill
this new state office, the governor in
the spring of 1921, appointed A. D.
Watts, of Statesville, who resigned
in February, 1923. The governor
named as his successor Rufus A.
Doughton, of Sparta, who still holds
the office. No one contested with him
z in the primary of 1924 and he re
ceived a majority in the general elec
tion commensurate with that of other
state officers.
During the primary campaign of
1920 Heriot Clarkson, of Charlotte,
now an associate justice on the su
preme court bench, managed Mr.
Morrison’s campaign. His slogan was
"from the plow handle to the man
sion.’ He stressed the fact that his
candidate had been reared on a
farm and without educational advan
tages which the children of the
state now enjoy. The candidate was
not only not a college man but he
did not have elementary education
al opportunities which now present
themselves.
So when Cameron Morrison be
came governor he announoed a liber
al policy toward public education. He
said he wanted the children of North
I Carolina to enjoy the opportunities
I that he had missed; that he knew,
| from experience, ' what it meant not
I to have educational advantages.
The new governor backed this up
I by advocating larger appropriations.
In 1920 North Carolina spent, in
round figures, $12,000,000 on public
! education. This scholastic year it
will spend, according to an estimate1
i by State Superintendent A. T. Allen,
$36,000,000, an increase of approxi
mately 300 per cent. Millions have
been appropriated to the State’s in
stitutions for higher learning, includ
ing the University, at Chapel Hill;
the State College of Agriculture and
Engineering, at West Raleigh; the
North Carolina State College for
Women, at Greensboro and the
Teachers’ College, at Greenville.
These appropriations were not only
for maintenance but for permanent
improvements, as well. During the
past four years the capacity of the
College for Women at Greensboro
has been trebled. Improvements at
the other institutions named have
been proportionate.
The value of public school property
in North Carolina today is $60,000,
000 according to Superintendent Al
im.
Liberal appr; print ions have been
made for the education of the negro.
This year the State will spend on
negro education, alone, over $4,125,
,M0. During the past four years it
lias spent approximately $1->,000,000.
There is at this time a movement
on foot /or the establishment of a
negro college for the training of
teachers. Already there are four ne
gor normals in the state system.
Training School for Negroes
Resides, during the past four years
with the support of Governor Mor
rison, North Carolina has establish
ed and is erecting a training school
fir delinquent negro boys, which is
known as the Morrison Training
School. A negro addition has been
buiit ate the State Sanatorium for the
Treatment cf 1 uberculosis, costing
•>100,000. This will be enlarged, from
time to time, as necessity may de
mami.
During Governor Morrison's term
of office, North Carolina has appro
priated approximately $4.000.000 to
the negro institutions for higher
learning and fo^ the maintenance
and expansion of institutions for tne
care of negro defectives. I his does
not allude to money spent on gram
mar and high schools for negroes.
One of the outstanding features of
Governor Morrison's administration
has been the almost total absence of
lynchings in North Carolina. There
has not been one since 1921. The
last riot resulting in a lynching was
that in Warren county, which oc
curred shortly after his inaugura
tion. The new governor sent troops
as soon as he learned of the trouble
and at the same time publicly an
nounced that it would be his policy
to send state troops to any commun
ity where trouble seemed brewing.
He has consistently adherred to this
policy, and on numbers of occasions
he has resorted to the use of troops.
Several lynchings undoubtedly would
have occurred but for the dispatch
of soldiers.
Mitchell County Race Trouble
During the late summer of 1922 a
situation arose which brought this
policy of Governor Morrison promi
nently to play. He was officially
notified that there was a plan on foot
to expel all negroes, including a
number employed on public works,
from Mitchell county. Nor was the
state convict camp located there to
be spared. The Governor immediate
ly placed Adjutant General J. \ an
B. Metts in charge of the situation,
with instructions to use as many
troops as necessary to keep the
threat from being carried out. Order
was quickly restored.
Governor Morrison’s administration
has been further characterized by
certain prison reforms. In conference
with him, the State Prison Board, in
May 1923, abolished .flogging at the
i Central Prison and in the various
state camps and substituted a diet
■ for corporal punishment. The “dun
i geon” at the Central Prison was
abolished and Governor Morrison of
j fered a blanket reward of $400 for
I the conviction of any guard or other
State prison employee guilty of
treating prisoners inhumanely. Later
he commuted the terms of all state
prisoners, placing them on indeter
j minate sentences. While this does not
! apply to county camps, it is likely
! that legislation looking toward the
abolition of corporal punishment in
county camps will be asked during
the present session of the general
assembly.
Appointments
it has been necessary lor govern
or Morrison to fill many vacancies
1 in the state government. Four out
| of five members of the supreme court
were appointed by him. The chief
justice, Hon. W. A. Hoke, was ele
vated to that position by the Govern
or when he appointed him to suc
ceed the late Chief Walter Clark .In
the place of Judge Hoke, up to that
time as an associate justice, he named
Judge George W. Connor, of Wilson.
Prior to that time, Governor Morri
son had appointed Heriot Clarkson,
of Charlotte, to succeed Associate
Justice Platt D. Walker, deceased,
and Judge W. J. Adams, of Car
thage to succeed Associate Justice
William R. Allen, deceased.
Governor Morrison also appointed
the present secretary of state, W. N.
Everett; the present superintendent
of public instruction, A. T. Allen, and
the present commissioner of agricul
ture, William A. Graham. The last
! named succeeded his father, the late
William A. Graham, Sr., deceased.
Mr. Everett was named to succeed
the late Colonel J. Bryan Grimes
and Mr. Allen was appointed to suc
ceed Dr. E. C. Brooks, when the lat
ter was elected president of the
State College of Agriculture and
Engineering.
One of the most notable fights
Conducted by Governor Morrison was
that in connection with the proposed
development of state ports by public
money and the operation of ships by
the state, if necessary. Hus measure
was defeated at the polls. However,
prominent party leaders have ex
pressed themselves in favor of some
move that will develop the state’s
ports and it seems not at all likely
that the subject is a dead one.
Governor Morrison, following the
inauguration of his successor, on
January 14, will go to Charlotte, ;
there to resume the practice of law.
He has engaged and fitted up offices
in the Johnston Building. Prior to
his election he maintained offices in
the Law Building. Miss Margaret
Vinton Willis, who wras his steno- i
! grapher prior to his coming to Ra- ;
j leigh and who has served four years .
as executive secretary, will return to
Charlotte with him. She will be lo- i
cated in his office there.

A Suggestion For County Road Con- .
struction And Maintainance
I would like to suggest that the .
next Legislature enact a law to pro- .
vide a separate maintenance road .
fund for the county roads. To provide (
funds for maintaining, or up keep, of ,
said roads that an additional tag or (
license tax for each car and truck of
one dollar each per year be levied by .
each county road commission. Ran- t
.lolph county would collect over foui
thousand dollars; that the State levy
and collect one cent additional on
every gallon of gasoline sold and
turn the one cent per gallon over to
each county in proportion to the cars
and trucks licensed for each county,
the same to be used as a maintenance 1
fund of the county public roads. The
county could use the road funds now
collected in building and graveling
new county roads. j
The one dollar per car and truck 1
and the one cent per gallon gasoline *
tax would keep the county roads in
good condition if properly used. Only
people who use cars would pay any
maintenance road tax. The county i
would then have roads so that the 1
people could get to the state high- i
ways. They would then get some ben- <
etit of special tax and gasoline taxes ;
right at home. *
We had just as well pay more now i
than to keep plunging the county in
debt deeper every year for roads. The ’
people want roads and want them <
kept in good condition, when the l
county employs a man to scrape and i
keep up a road. There comes times j
when scraping or dragging is not ,
much good, especially when the roads
are frozen very hard, or when they
are extremely dry and hard. At those
times it would be better to be top- ,
soiling the low places.
There should be a heavy tax levied j
by the State on the bus business. If j
they keep building the bus wider they ]
will take all the road. These are a
few suggestions by a citizen and tax- |
payer of Randolph county, North
Carolina.
J. M. YATES.
Says Some Changes Must Be
Made In Soldiers' Loan Act
Secretary of State W. N. Everett,
who is chairman of the board of four
State officials appointed to supervise
the administration of the $2,000,000
loan fund authorized by the refer
endum vote in the general election
last November, says the board can do
nothing about the matter until the
Legislature makes some changes in the
act as drawn by Frank D. Grist, now
Commissioner of Labor and Printing.
The bill provides loans up to $8000 j
to veterans for the purpose of build
ing homes, the loan to be made on
real estate security not to exceed
three-fifths of the appraisal value,
the cost of which appraisal must be
borne by the applicant. The loan bears
interest at the rate of 6 per cent and
must be repaid in 40 semi-annual in
stallments.
The bill provides that the commis
sioner of the loan fund shall draw a
salary of $8,000 a year, this to be
paid out of the difference ip the inter
est rate paid by the ex-soldiers and
the interest paid on the two millions
in bonds to be issued to finance the
proposition. However, no provision is
made in the act for the paying of the
salary of the commissioner or any of
the expenses incidental to the admin
istration of the fund while the loans
are being made and the interest com
ing in. It is a doubtful proposition
that in event the fund gets^to working
that there would be enough margin
left for the administration of the
fund.
It is now up to somebody who is in
terested to get the Legislature to
make the necessary changes so that
the act may become operative.

The Attorney General
Interprets Amendment
In The Interpretation Says
Amendment Is Just and
Equitable.
At the request of Henry M. Lon
don, legislative reference librarian
Attorney General James S. Manning
has furnished an interpretation of the
homestead exemption amendment that
was adopted at the general election ir
November, declaring the amendment
to be just and equitable.
The opinion follows:
You request this office to interpret
the recent amendment to the constitu
tion of North Carolina in regard to th<
taxation of homes, homesteads, notes
and mortgages.
It is apparent that the main inten
of this amendment is to prevent dou

ble taxation of the classes of propferty
described therein. Under the law as it
was, the holder of a mortgage on real
estate was required to list as a solvent
credit the notes secured by such mort
gage at their true value in money,
while the owner of the land was re
quired to list it also at its true value
i-n money, without any abatement in
its value on account of the outstand
ing mortgage. This was manifestly
double taxation.
The amendment deels-with this evil
partially only, but it is effective with
relation to the particular classes of
property with which it deals. Its op
eration is confined to homes and the
notes, mortgages and other evidences
of indebtedness incurred for the bene
fit of that home. The word “home” is
defined in the act—chapterjll5 of the
Public Laws, extra session of 1924, to
mean lands, whether consisting of a
building lot, or a larger tract togeth
er with all the buildings and outbuild
ings which the owner in good faith in
tends to use for himself or herself,
which shall be conclusively established
by the actual use and occupancy of
such premises as a dwelling place of
the purchaser or owner for a period of
three months.
The evidences of indebtedness which
participate in the benefits of the
amendment are thus defined: Notes,
mortgages, and all other evidences of
indebtedness or any renewal thereof
given in good faith to build, repair or
purchase a home when such loan
does not exceed $8,000.. Such notes,
etc., must be made to run not less
than one nor more than 33 years. The
holder of said notes, etc., must reside
in the county where the land lies and
there list them for taxation,
i The machinery by which this just
and equitable rule is applied to this
particular class of property is a slid
ing scale. When the evidence or indebt
edness complies with the requirements
set out, it is to be exempt from tax
t
ation of every kind for 50 per cent or
its value. When the owner of such
idence of indebtedness has complied
with the requirements above set out,
then the owner of the home shall like
wise be exempt from taxation of every
kind for 50 per cent of the value of
such evidence of indebtedness.^ The
practical effect of this is to make the
evidence of indebtedness and the land
itself a single unit for taxation. As
the indebtedness is gradually dimnu
shed, this sliding scale (50 per cent)
gradually reduces the exemption u*:
both cases, i. e., with reference to the.
holder of the evidence of indebtedness j
and the owner of the land, but at n»
time are the two taxpayers to be taxed
more than would be justified if both,
classes of property a single unit.. Thus
is avoided in this particular case the
injustice of double taxation.

NEW SERIES
The 12th Series of the Randolph County Building
and Loan Association will be open January 1st. The
Association has been a great blessing to its stockholders
and has helped more than 125 people to secure homes.
There are today more than 3700 shares of stock, and
loans approximate $160,000.00
