C.. an J entered at the Danburv postoilice as second class mat ter, under act of Congress. Danbury, N. C., Thursday, February 14, 19 !5 THE ! El)i EE WILL TUIST THE PRESIDENT Tr u m ! )lo objective of the pending £4,SSO,- *oo,'' ' relief 1 >i!l was d.scribed by Senator Jam. s V. Byrne;, of South Carolina, in a national radio broadcast, as "first to return to the state* the duty of curing for the disabled unemployed and second to put an end to the national system of direct relief or the dole." The senator drew the sharp distinction that the contemplated pro-; gram is not primarily one of public works but of! releif employment. Public works are involved,; he said, because they furnish the desired employ-j ment. "It is because of this distinction," the senator, declared, "that the funds must not be earmarked for specific projects. Congressional agree-, ment on such projects would be utterly impos sible, and would serve only to delay inauguration of a program needed immediately." Discussing the measure, which already has passed the House of Representatives and is now pending in the Senate, he said: "There are 5,000,000 persons, most of whom are heads of families, on direct relief. Of this; number, 1,500,000 are classed as unemployables.! The duty of caring for these will be returned toj the states. It is realized that many states can not immediately provide the revenue to take) -are of all their unemployables. In order that r»o one will suffer during the change of policy,j the bill provides that of the total authorized an- i preprint on, the sum of will be used! to cont nue direct Federal relief during the! tapering off process, , " • ' "The.-- who have studied the problem are convinced that caring for the unemployables can be m i r,' l!?g -nt >' and more Lcononvcail; •and 1 »*.' the sia and lo;.: l govt rnm«.*nt*\ As; tu -c the average of 821 per month now •env .

I't'eK of tho program upo»ij a wage scale, Senator Byrnes said: "It must be remembered that between SO and 90 per cent, of organized labor is working in industries where the wage scale is fixed by eodt agreements. The administration has something to say in the determination of these wage scales and wage earners can rest assured that there will be no decrease." Concerning the receipt of thousands of tele grams by members of Congress urging support of a provision in the act to require that work be done under contract, the senator said that sc far as possible the services " contractors would be utilized. However, he ueclared that such contracts "should provide that contracts use the ] services of those who are on the relief rolls and qualified, to meet the primary purpose of the program." "The President is willing to accept the res ponsibility for the administration of this act," he explained, in emphasizing that it was im practical to consider 'earmarking' types and locations of work projects. He confidently be lieves that with the enactment of this legislation he can hasten complete recovery. I believe that he can and I believe that the people are willing to trust him."

HOT POLITICS OUT OF RALEIGH i CANDIDACY Some members l of the General Assembly don't i think that Senator Harriss New man. of New Hanover, an. 1 . ReprtsuitaJve Gregg Cherry, oi Gaston, Chairman of Senate ami lluut.e committees on fimmcr, have helped their reported . candidacies .'or Governor and ■ Lieutenant Governor, also res pectively. by the speed they have ; attempted to apply to committer consideration oi the proposed i revenue bill. These dissenters ex press private opinions that rus'i mg donsideration of the money bill has angered more people than it has pleased. | FI'TILE Dr. John T. Bur | nis, Senator from Guilford, i thinks the chairman of the State 1 I | Highway and Public Workft Com mission of Revenue should be I | elected by the people instead of ; appointed by the Governor and, has bills intended to make such a change. But the High Point Doctor isn't betting any bigj stakes that his proposals will be-j come law. On the other hand he| is inclined to be resigned to their | defeat. Senator Bun us defeated' | Capus M. Waynick, »resent chair- I man of the Highway body, in the 1 Democratic primaries last June. PI'RPOSE The bill by 1 Senator Paul I).

You will not be able to tell who wins until the General Assembly adjourns sine die. j TOLLS This General As- j sembly came to Raleigh deter mined to make all bridges is, free as the roads and it didn't j take the members long to re move the tolls from bridges across the Chowan near Edenton ' and the Cape Fear at Wilming-I ton. You won't lose much money, , in the opinion of those supposed to know, if you wager that toils will also be lifted from the, Wright Memorial Bridge, gateway to Roanoke Island, as the result of legislation backed by the ad ministration. NOT TOO SOON Guesses on i the date for final adjournment of the legislature are beginning to ( vary widely as the joint finance committees continue deliberations J on the biennial revenue bill, j Legislative progosticators profess 'o foresee unanticipated delay orj the revenue bill in House and Senate. These unquoted wise-men sense unexpected storms as the result of rapid passage over many sections of the money bill in com mittee. G O V E R N O It Lieutenant Govr*»>.or A. H. Graham isn't say ing much for publication but you can make a note on your cuii that he hadn't withdrawn 1 -a: the 1030 Gubernatorial : . .. Tieading the even t?no: of hi way Mr. Graham is neverthcU's laying the foundation for his campaign next year. Many per sons supposedly veised in a.c gentle art of politico think lie is doing pretty well with the seco.i l General Assembly to hear the sound of his gavel. It is generally admitted that he knows his way! ' around in politics. SNEEZES Head and chest' ! colds, just like those down on the' farm, have been disturbing mem bers of the General Assembly. Among those absent from the ' Senate on such an account ar*\ ' Senator A. Hall Johnston, of Buncombe; Senator Carroll Wea ! thers, of Wake; Senator White, I of Robeson, and Senator Harriss ! Newman, of New Hanover. To ■ date, none of these members of i the upper branch of the As ! Eornbly have been in serious con ' dition except Senator Johnston a!- 1 though hoarseness on the part of Senator Spenee, of Moore, delayed! consideration of the Automobile! drivers' license bill for several days. REORGANIZATION Mem bers of the present Legislature! are in no mood for such a waste of: time as was imposed on the 1933 ! session by Senator Larry Mnre'; committee on reorganization of' tho State government.

General Assembly often get in bad with the home-folks by publif-hed accounts of short sess-j ion of the House and Senate. Newspapers fail to record the hours that thefw same members spend in committee meetings ; ironing out the knots in legisla j tion in order to avoid lengthy de bate in general session. Many legislators are members of half- j , dozen or more committees and t spend long hours going over bills in order that time may be saved when general session convenes. j SALES TAX The three per cent general retail tax isn't re enacted yet. Opposition apparent ly is greater than in the earlv days of the session and oppon ents have substitutes that appeal to many legislators. The admin istration is still confident of re enactment of the Sales tax but the revenue bill hasn't been rati fied. It's a pretty safe guess that you'll have the privilege of pay- J ing the sales tax to keep the schools open another two years, I 1 ' but not if Representative Mc j Donald, of Forsyth, and Represen tative Lumpkin, of Franklin, can | stop it. They have proposals they say will produce needed money WORKING hard, a great way to keep up my x > energy is to smoke a Camel." - (Signed) P. HALSEY, Surveyor but a lot of people doubt the!.•' l estimates. j AUTO TAGS —lf all goes | well you will not have to pay as ! much for your auto license plates next year as? you did this ( January. It's pretty well agreed that the Legislature will cut the 1 cocst of auto tags and it looks like the minimum will be about | $9.00. It now appears you will i buy your next year's tag on A basis of 40 cents per hundred weight instead of 55 cents as formerly. LOBBYISTS Published re ports of increased corporation and j business taxes as substitutes for, the sales tax brought rep resenta j tives of various commercial I ' groups to town in a hurry. The boys are finding their way around j hotel and legislative lobbies but general conditions are supposed ito have subtracted from their power. You can't blame them for not wanting taxes upped on their businesses and that of their clien'.s ( and after al! every citizen who is to bo taxed lias a coii»titiiti-.."i;:l rijJ-.t to be heard.
