The automobile industry is still in its infancy almost, yet today it is one of the ’greatest industries in the world. f Within one generation the world has sfeen the birth and rise of this industpr, until today in the nation and world its, ' size is so stupendous as to.be almost be*- yond comprehension. { ;i, Alfred Deeres, general manager of the Rational Automobile Chamber of Com merce, in trying to get before the intelli gence of the people something of the im mensity of this business, was saymg'lC'- centty that of the approximately 26,000,r 000 automobiles in the world, around 21,- 000,000 were in the United States, 1 , in cluding in, that figure about 3,000,000 Anotor trucks. |\The automotive freight shipped over f(he railroads of the United States last $-ear amounted to 3,040,000 very great factor in the railroad traffic of the United States. • > ’ ’ *;.* Thete are 47,000 car pd truck dealer*, 55,000 "public garages, 75,000' Sefvke 'sta tions and repair shops and 61,617 supply mores. - Z% The wholesale value of automobiles and trucks for last year amounted to $3,- 000,000,000. The wholesale value of motor-vehicle tires amounted to $886,- 700,000, and the wholesale value of parts And ‘accessories, exclusive of tires, to sl,- ,Abe,<loo,ooo. ... *' Here is a wholesale- valuation of cars, trucks, tires and parts amounting to r nearly $5,000,000,000. Add to these fig-» ’iires the retail value and the total would -probably run for these items alone cer tainly to not less than $7,500,000,000. The consumption of gasoline by motor ve vicles last year amounted to 7,494,000,- 000 gallons. At an average price per gal lon of 20 cents, and that, of course, is be low the actual cost, there is an additional item of approximately $1,500,000,000,‘and in these few items, estimated at retail value, we have an aggregate of over $9,- 000,000,000. OUR INCOME. The' incomes of the people of the United States last year aggregated, 78 billions of dollars, according to statistics made public by the National Industrial Conference Board. This is more than a billion dollars in excess of the total in comes in 1925 and about eight billions more than the incomes of 1924. The most significant fact in connection with these figures is that there has been a greater increase in our national income between. 1920 and 1926, than for any simi lar period of years in the present century. National incomes increased 9.7 per cent, from 1909 to 1914; 11.4 per cent, from 1914 to 1920 and 26.6 per cent, from 1020 to 1926. The Greenville, S. C., News points out that ‘‘the increase during this last period is really greater, proportionately, than these figures indicate. ,IFram 1909 to 1920 prices were rising, generally speak ing, and .a 1920 dollar was not worth anything like a 1909 dollar in purchasing power. Since 1920, however, the tenden cy of prices has been gradually down ward, so that a greater income today rep resents not only more in money than in 1920, but an added increase in buying value. “I>espite this fact, however, we are not all wealthy. With 44,000,000 people gainfully employed, the average income would be about $1,787 per year. Natural ly with such an average there are a vast number of people whose incomes is less than that figure.” ,# .. , PRESIDENT AND FLOOD RELIfeF President Coolidge indicates now that he may call Congress together a little sooner than usual to discuss the flood situation and permanent improvements along the Mississippi. For some time there has been a con certed movement to get the President to take this course but he has refused to do so. He has publicly stated that Secre tary Hoover advises him that Congres sional relief is not necessary. However, the pressure being brought to bear is be coming stronger and stronger and the Chief Executive at last has called party leaders to give consideration to a jMtteii that demanded attention weeks ago- ' The greatest in the long run is a guarantee that the Mississippi ’will not overflow, ip th£ future as-jit has done in the past I b'ht the present peed is ftihds for rehabilitatiSn of the flood sufferers. Con- I gress can certainly provide this. It will . be some months perhaps, before engi neers canj s’ttbpiit definite plans for con trolling the Mississippi but that ques tion will of necessity nave to wait until the plans can be perfected, ■ How . ever, engineers are not needed in the plans for aiding the sufferers, who Are without home, livestock and means of making a living. H I More than 700,000 people are homeless. That means they have no funds at hand. That means they have no means for making a, living. This is the matter that Congress can handle now without wait ing for any engineers reports. PEONAGE IN GEORGIA. • t r r ' * v Dr. King, who»operates a big Georgia farm, has been freed by a jury which tried him on .a peonage charge. The case of the State broke down when a ne gro who said he had seen five other ne groes killed and buried on the farm, ad mitted that he was not telling the truth. However, there was enough evidence presented to show that a healthy condU tion'does not exist on this particular farm. Dr. King, who formerly managed the farm, admitted on the witness stand that he whipped four laborers ’on the farm, but he denied that any one was kept there by force. , That may be true, but we doubt if anybody in North Car olina could keep negroes on their farm if they Whipped them every time they did something that was not just right. Un der what law. "did Dr. King whip these negroes? *‘V « One stole a time book and would not tell its hiding place, Dr. King said, so he was whipped. Why have a court in Georgia if persons charged with larceny are to be handled by the man bringing the charges against them ? This trial may do one thing at least —I it may make operators of farms in Geor gia more careful in the future. Now j that public interest is being centered on one such plantation the lot of the labor ers there and at other farms mav be bet • * ter for the time being, at least. SEEK TO AVOID CONGESTION. State Revenue Commissioner Dough ton, who has charge of the sale of auto licenses, hopes auto owners will not wait until the last minute to secure their 1927 license tags. Branch offices of the Carolina Motor Club have been'opened in various cities in the State and from these as well as from the State bureau at Raleigh, the new tags can be secured. Locally, there has been no rush to secure the new licenses, but reports from Raleigh indicate that in the State as a whole the auto owners are taking advantage oUthis opportunity to get their tags before the final rush starts the latter part of the month. There is one thing that is making many people wait until the last minute —the ruling that the new tags cannot be used before July first. Scores of persons here have been heard to remark that they are not going to get the licenses until they can use them, rush or no rush at the last minute. Heretofore the licenses could be plac ed on cars and trucks as soon as purchas ed but this year its different. It is just as unlawful to display the new lags be fore July first as it is to display the old ones after that date. We do not under stand the ruling but its made and as a re sult is'- keeping scores of persons from buying their tags now. Concord fans this summer will have opportunity to see some fast baseball without leaving the confines of their home. county. Concord and Kannapolis have organized fast semi-pro teams and plan to Ytage several games each week at home. No doubt the schedule makers will seek to arrange schedules which will not allow for many conflicting dates at Concord and and Kannapolis. Attend ance 'in each city will be larger if Con cord can play at home while Kannapolis is away and the Towelers can play at home while the Wei vers are away. Con cord fans should generously support the team, which now promises to be one of , the best in the State. , Sheriff Caldwell gives warning that operators of slot machines, punch boards and the like are to come under the watch i of the law. Several such gambling de i vices have been seized and destroyed by • the Sheriff within the past week and he • has served notice on the public that fur , ther violations of the law will result in ■ arrests. The law is plain enough on this u subject and Sheriff Caldwell has power r enough to do just-what he says he will >,do. The Legislature several .years ago > ;put~a ban on ? sufeh; devices i And [plenty of authority under which Sheriff Caldwell can arrest every person found I I violating the law. tj • • •• - »v+t .

Hobbs, Jr., makes a survey of the treat ment accorded the 'feeble-minded in the various States of the Union.’ The figures show the South is far behind the rest of the nation in this work, not a singje southern State having facilities for the care and treatment of the feeble-minded population. -A -i * , ! Mr. Hobbs finds that States donot vary greatly in t-he proportion of the to tal population that is feeble-minded but there is great variance in the number of such cases reported in the several States, due to the facilities afforded in different States. The survey shows for instance, that New Hampshire has many more feeble minded’ in institutions than Ndrth Caro lina} but that does not mean there are more feeble-minded ; per&qs there per population than in 'Carolina. It means, if anything, that New Hampshire is doing a greater work in this respect than is North Carolina. It means again that New Hampshire is treating more of her’ feeble-minded than is North Caro lina. Mr. Hohbs finds that only a small part of the feeble-minded in the United States are in institutions provided for their care. The vast majority are in the community, where many of them get along reasonably welt and are partially or wholly self-sup porting. Numerous others are found in almshouses and in penal and reformatory institutions/ The feeble-minded are usually divided into three classes: idiots, imbeciles and morons. An idiot is a mentally defective person having a mental age of not more than thirty-five months, or, if a child, an intelligence quotient of less than twenty five. "An imbecile is a mentally defective person having a mental age between thir ty-six months and eighty-three months, inclusive, or, if a child, an intelligence quotient between twenty-five and forty nine. A moron is a mentally defective person having a mental age. between eigh ty-four months and one hundred and for ty-three months, inclusive, or, if a child, an intelligence quotient between fifty and seventy-four. North Carolina has one institution for the care of feeble-minded, the Caswell Training School, located at Kinston. This school was authorized in 1911 and open ed in 1914. There is no private institu tion in the state for the care of feeblfe-' minded. The Census Bureau reports that on January first, 1923, there were three hundred and eight inmates in the Caswell Training School. Our rate of inmates in this school is 17.3 per one hundred thou sand white inhabitants in the state. Thir ty-four states provide for a larger pro portion of their feeble-minded. The states that rank below us are seven South ern States, and five far western frontier states that are too new and young to have developed much beyond the individualis tic of view. An outstanding fact is the rapid in crease in recent years in the number of states providing special institutions for their feeble-minded. The first state to establish such an institution was Massa chusetts, in 1848, followed by New York in 1851. Fourteen states were maintain ing separate state . institutions for their feeble-minded in 1890, twenty-one in 1904, twenty-six in 1910, forty in 1923, and forty-four in 1925. A most glaring fact is that although about ninety per cent, of the negro popu lation of the United States live in the South, no Southern state had provided an institution for the care of feeble-minded negroes as late as 1923. There was a private institution in Louisiana that had seventy-one inmates. North Carolina has a training school for negro boys sim ilar to the Stonewall Jackson Training School for white boys, but no institution for feeble-minded negroes. Exclusive of the Southern states, all other states ex cept four that have institutions for the care of feeble-minded whites, also have institutions for feeble-minded negroes. In three of these four exceptional states there are practically no tants. Seventeen states have higher rates of negroes than whites in institutions for feeble-minded. Were feeble-minded ne groes admitted to institutions on the same terms as feeble-minded whites, it is prob able that the rate for negroes would be higher in all the states. The establishment of separate state in stitutions for the care of epileptics is a comparatively new development in the care of this class. In 1923 there were on ly nine state institution* for epileptics, located in the following states: Indiana, lowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Texans. In North Carolina, the iiJ|tiiutioff: sos ep ileptics is qot a separate one,'blit a! de partment of the state hbspital for men tal diseases at Raleigh.

THE eoN.C6&D TIMES RED CROSS FLOOD CONTRIBU v TIONS. *• ■■ Official figures by States and cities of ov er 100,000 population on the fund, of the American Red Cross for rjeiielf of thq hundreds of thousands of sufferers in the Mississippi River floqd' area have been compiled sos tjie Manufacturers Record; by DeWitt* Smith, assistant to the vice chairman of the Red Cross, and are pub-, lished in'the issue of June 9 of that paper. They show $14,374,095.52 collected in the. 48 States, Alaska and the District of Co-' lumbia up to May 31. Added tp this are! $101,822.95 from insular j , and;. foreign; chapters, $47,977 at large and a Red Cross contribution of .-SIOO,OOO, making a grand total of $14,623,895,48 to the be-, ginning of June. t '/ \ i North Carolina didn’t do any too much in this crisis. This State, the figures; show, contributed $160,730.30, sent in by' 115 Red Cross, chapters. However, in comparison with the other Southern States, and especially with those States whose population is no greater than North Carolina, this State held its own. Contributions from some of the South ern States follow: Chapters Amt. Alabama ..... 76 $153,042.11 Arkansas 50 97,000.00 Florida 67 158,334.59 Georgia __ # lO9 134,464.79 Louisiana 43 210,150.16 Maryland 22 193,881.15 South Carolina 57 63,234.88 Tennessee 87- 251,059.17 Virginia 112 167,622.37 Texas _ 188 338,000.00 Twenty-four of the largest cities in the nation had fallen short of their quota on May 31st. \ Included in the list were Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Cleveland, Boston, Baltimore, Brooklyn, Buffalo,, Cincinnati, Seattle, Providence, Scranton, Toledo, Akron, Syracuse, San Antonio, Salt Lake City, Cambridge, Lowell, Jer sey City, Spokane, Tacoma, Kansas City, Kans., and Fall River.... New York City exceeded her quota, giving $1,589,000 on a quota of $1,200,- 000. Os 70 cities of 100,000 population or over, 46 exceeded their quota. It is easier as a rule, to get funds for a cause of this kind in urban than rural sections. We do not mean that city peo ple are more liberal than country people, but it is easier to get the message to the city dweller than to the rural dweller and in addition relief organization and agencies are as a rule better organized in the cities than in the rural sections. North Carolina cities did well, espec ially in this immediate section, but in some of our rural sections the relief call met practically no response at all. Farm people didn’t seem over anxious to make contributions despite the fact that the greatest sufferers from the flood were people living from the soil. The Red Cross asked for donations of $15,000,000 and the total secured by June speaks well for the generosity of Ameri ca. TYING THE COUNTIES. Statesville Daily. The State Highway commission has prepared a contract designed to give the commission complete authority in road location. Under a Supreme court decision the commission, once it has takeh over a road for State upkeep, may not change the loca tion of the road without the consent of the county governing authorities —the county commissioners or the county highway commission, if there is a county highway commission in charge of roads. The State commission is now taking over more roads for 'State upkeep. The revenues of the com mission permit it to increase State road mainten ance, thus relieving the counties extent. To avoid getting a road ou its hands without au thority to change the location, the State commission has prepared a contracts which county commission ers, or the road governing body of the county, is asked to sign (before the State botiy will take over additional road upkeep in any county. Re fusal to sign the contract would mean, it is as sumed, that the State commission would decline to take the road in charge. Thus the State road body is in position to make the county authority yield to its wishes. The contract reads as follows: Whereas, the present location of said road has not been surveyed or examined with sufficient care to enable the State Highway commission to deter mine to what extent, if at all, said present location may 'be the most practicable route for the perma nent location of a State highway to serve the traffic between said termini. “And whereas, the said county is desirous of be ing relieved of the maintenance of the existing road prior to the determanation of a permanent location. “Now, therefore, it is agreed that the State High way commission shall take over as a temporary route, the said county road, as now existing, and the said county, through its road governing body, hereby consents and agrees to waive all rights to protest or contest such change, alteration or com plete new location, us the State Highway commis sion may hereafter determine upon, to serve the traffic between the stated termini. “And, after such new location may be made, to absolve the State Highway commission from any and all claims on the part of the said county as to further maintenance of such portion, or the whole, of said road as may fail to coincide with the new location.” If we are to maintain the v roads, say the State highwaymen in effect, as they perpetrate the hold ;up,l wei reserve tjie right r to make, such changes.in - Übcitioh, if any, a$ xfrfejbayy deem with- j out asking anybody's permission.' And having the long ehd of the rope—or all the * rope, you might say—the State highwaymen have their way. “Os the 10,000,000 pianos in the United States about 8,000,000 are odC of ,tuue and are merely ‘thump boxes.’”—Charles; ofi Chi-., cago, president of the National Association of Piano Tuners. WORK HOURS. Statesville Daily. ... - When a bill to cut the working hours of women and children (children over 14) employed in in dustrial plants from 60 to 55 per week, was pre sented to the late deceased legislature, the house treated it as a joke and voted it down with jeers— a shameful performance. It was bad enough to vote the bill down, hut to treat it as a joke put the legislators in a light in which they would hardly care to appear if they are capable of ap preciating the situation. 1 Before the sitting was concluded a bill was passed providing that children between the ages of 14 to 16 must not be permitted to work more than eight hours a day. That might have been evidence of repentance, or realization of the shame of the first performance. But there is a string even to this. *' The' 8-hour period applies to children that have not completed the fourth garde at school. The two-year period—between 14 and 16—was little Enough. It is hard on mature men to work ten hours a day, closely confined. That period is too long for women and children, even youths past 16. But if children between the ages 14. and 16 have completed the fourth grade at school they may be worked for a longer; time thap eight hours. It .isn’t physical strength but education that counts. Which is curious. ■ ‘ ' But there is another feature that helps. Here tofore children employed in industrial plants could be sent to work at 6 in the morning and also, worked until 9 at night. Not that they could be worked straight along. But their hours could be arranged so that they could be sent to work that early, or they could be kept on the job until 9 p. m. Under the new law children may not begin work until 7 a. m.* The women’s organizations asked for the eight hour day for womeh and children and the fore going is what they got. They consider that some gain, an admission that this class of workers should not be kept on the job as long as men. But the women didn’t ask for the school provision—per mitting a youngster to be worked more than eight hours simply because he had completed the fourth grade at school. THE PRESIDENT AND THE NOMINATION. Charity and Children. All the political experts are now giving Mr. Coolidge free advice regarding the third-term issue. Hardly a day passes without some amateui* saver of the country rushing into print with the positive assertion that Mr. Coolidge will run or that he will not run. Not a week passes in which it is not proved in forty different ways that the Re publican party cannot afford to renominate him, and in just as many ways that the party cannot afford not to renominate.him. But in the midst of the clamor Calvin is as silent as the tomb—that is, he is silent on this subject, although he talks incessantly about everything else. Yet all the con versation of other people on this topic is wasted breath. If Coolidge wishes to have the nomination, he will take it. A President—any President —can do that. The prestige of the office is so tremendous that no political party would dare repudiate a President who desired to be renominated; qnd in addition to prestige, the President hits all the power of Federal patronage with which to whip delegates into line. If Mr. Coolidge decides not to be a candidate for renomination, then there will be a real fight in the Republican party; but if the President makes up his mind to run again, the rest of the boys might just as well pack up their traps and get out of the road, for they will not be able to put up enough resistance to make the President know he has been in a fight. It is a different story, of course, when it comes to the election; but in so far as the nomination is concerned, if the man in the White House chooses to do so he can merely stretch out his hand and pick it up. THE REAL TEST. Charity and Children. The colleges have turned loose another flood of graduates upon the world. The total in North Carolina, as has become usual, eclipses all previous records. But there is no longer any question of who is to do the world’s work when everybody has a college degree. To be a college graduate no long er implies that one intends to become a doctor, a lawyer, or a preacher. College training these dqys is necessary for a young man to have an even start in the business world as well as in the professions. The fact that North Carolina colleges this year graduated more students than ever be fore - simply means that the ■State is trying to keep up with the procession. If the number of our col legians remained static, we should not be holding our own, but losing ground; for the rest of the country is driving ahead." We hope that North Carolina is making a little better than the average speed, fer we started far back in the race. It took a long time for us to come around to the doctrine that a well-trained brain is not an orna ment nor a luxury, but a tool-box necessary to every man and woman who expects to do good work in the world. We have not quite assimilated the notion that books are—or ought to be—imple ments, but as education spreads further that, too, will come. And this spirit, not the development of our industry, not the development of our agriculture, not the development of our State road system or of any other material thing, is the real measure of the progess of North Carolina. Only as we become a thinking people do we become a really progressive people. SHE GOT THE WINE. Greensboro Record. That lovely and spirited old lady, Mrs. R. R. Cotton,* “mother of the Woman’s Clubs of North Carolina” told an anecdote which must have shock ed some of the W illard devotees upon the occasion of the annual spring meetipg of the Goldsboro Wo man s Club at Herman Park yesterday afternoon. Because it catches and reflects the youthful spirit' who has so long served the Woman’s Clubs in North ’ Carolina and because it is a good story, we are going to try to repeat it. I Mrs. Cotton, she told her hearers, was in Golds boro several years ago for the purpose of organiz- 1 ing the Goldsboro Woman’s Club. She was being entertained in the home of one of the best families. The senaut brought forward “some lovely old wine.” i “Propose a toast,” the host invited Mrs. Cotton.' “Here's to the success of the Goldsboro Woman’s ’ Club,- she propsed. The host had half raised his glass on his lips. But he stopped short and placed , it on the table decisively. Never, he replied. “I cannot drink to that ' toasC I do not believe in woman’s organizations.” M ell then, here’s to the success of the man who ' doesn’t believe in woman’s organizations,” Mrs. 1 Cotton is reported as saying she replied and we have it that her eyes sparkled as she ended the story. , And so I got the wine anyway. I had been afraul I would miss it.” " | V\ °rk keeps me 'young. If I should quit I woukl die. —JusUce Oliver Wendell Holmes,; dean of the United States Supreme Court, at 86.
