House Bill 225, in- { troduced by Mr. Everett, has not been passed at the present time, but another i authorizing a special road tax in Goose I Nest Township was pasacd this week, j The House Bill 225 would amend : the law relating to credit unions to I cure an error in the old statute. As for the spcial act authorising a special road tax in Goose Nest, it is under stood that the measure will make pos -.ble a larger one, as the township is 33 LICENSES TO MARRY ISSUED 21 Colored and 12 White Couples Apply; 29 Issued In December In hi* work in Martin County, Dan Cupid it very irregular, for in the past month there were 33 marriage license* issued at the register of deeds office liere, as compared with SO in Decem ber, 1927, 29 last December, and 37 last January.

ANOTHER'BABY' STILL CAPTURED Sam Moore, Colored, Make» Valiant Effort to Explain Presence of Outfit The story offered here yesterday by Sam Moore, colored after officers had visited his home in Hamilton Town ship Wednesday and found three empty barreia near the house, a 5-gallon glass jug carrying a whisky odor, a lard stand rigged with a copper coil, and not far away under a bundle of broom straw a 5-gallon copper still, was well told but considered unfounded by of ficers. In explaining the presence of the three barrels, Sam stated they were there to put fish and meat in. As for the still, he told that it had been given him by a man below jMnesville, but that he did not know the man's name and could not identify him. The jug, according to Sam, belonged to his wife, she having generally used it for a wa ter jug but lately she had put some strong wine in it. Moore was given a few more days to think over the mat* ter when he promised to appear 'at a later date to explain any other details that might come up. .. .... ... j Last year Moore lived in the Tyner Town section and was caught at a still there. His story, maintaining that he j was only a visitor at the stin, was so convincing that his case was dismissed at the time. Williamston. Martin County, North Carolina, Friday, February 1,1929 now collecting a special tax of 25 cents on the SIOO property valuation and 75 cents poll for road purposes. That there will be an increase is uncertain, jes the passage of such a measure might have been considered necessary in mak | ing the present special levy legal. I Yesterday Senator Peel introduced a bill providing for a special $5 tax on motor vehicles in Bear Grass Town ship. This tax is to be levied on every car and truck in the township for the maintenance of roads there. In the primary last June the voters of the tc-wuship voted 99 to 20 in favor of the levy of such a special tax and the pass ing of the act by the legislature makes it legal. PROSPECT FOR LONGERSCHOOL TERM IS FADING —«— Bill Introduced by A. D. McLean, of Beaufort, Appears Doomed 3 BILLS CONSIDERED • Proposal of Representative McLean May Not Be Scrapped Entirely, But 8-Month Term Is "Out*' ♦ Raleigh, Feb. I.—ft appears more likely that North Carolina will con- Unue with a aix months school t;rm. depending on an increased equalixu- Uon fund to cut ad valorem taxes, than that it will gfo the whole way and adopt th* proposal of Represen tative Mac Lean of Beaufort, to put in the State-wide eight montha term, limit the county rates to 40 cents on the |IOO valuation, und pay the rest of the maintenance b 11 with an equal ization fund of nine and a half mil lion dollars raised by means sug geated but not perfected. That much devclctyed first meeting of the joint sutft&mmittee appointed by the chairmen of the House and Senate Education Com mittees. The committee yesterday took up the three bills so far introduced on the matter of achools and tax relief therefor. The proposal of Judge Win aton to aboliah all special school dis tricts and have the State take over all indebtedness of counties foi schools and limit the county tax rate for schools to 26 cmta was eliminated aa unfeasible at thia tim\ The bill introduced by Iteprnaen- Utive Hal stead of Camden, was held over for further consideration. It provides for two bases—a county tax of 35 cents for a six months term, with an equalisation fund of seven million dollars on a strict basis by the State Board of Equalisation, taking much of the jurisdiction out of the hand* of county education boards. This last feature had its counter part in the Mac Lean eight month* bill, which proposed setting up a State board of supervision for thr purpose of enforcing economy in the oeration of schools. This idea of saving was stressed by Senator Womble as the first step toward tax reduction and probably will be in corporated in some manner in the school bill eventually reported out. A definite stand against the eigh*. months term was taken by Scnatai Johnscu, who propoaed a 25 cent county rate with an equalizatioi fond of from six to six and one half millions. Senator Johnson said he was about ready to commit him self to the idea of a business direc tor for education Senator Johnson aaid he war against the eight months term foi two reasons—one that he did not know wheih the money could be raised and the other, that the peo pie who can use the longer term now have it. Senator Womble brought in the Governor's inaugural utterance about the time not being ripe for th longer term at thii juncture. Representative Mac Lean defended hia proposal, declaring the sigh months State-wide term was the only wa jrto gat at the defects in the system and to give greatest tax re lief. Ha estimated that only one mil lion dollars in new money would b« necessary to got the longer term and contended that the money could bo raiaed by a tax on electric energy, by stricter collection of income taxe and by an automobile drivers' llcens fee, and then if necesoary by a lux uriea consumption tax. The committee adjourned to mee' again Tuesday without reaching any definite conclusions. Town and County Boards To Hold Meetings Monday Motions, complaints, arguments, mingled with a few other various and sundry things, more or less routine in nature, will be the order of the day here next Monday, the time when the boards of education, county commis sioners, and local aldermen are sched uled for regular sessions. , PROPONENTS OF PAVING LEAD IN EARLY RETURNS 40 Out of 206 Cards Mailed Out Wednesday Have Been Returned 30 FOR; 10 AGAINST Those Receiving Card* Are Urged to Return Them to Kiwanii Club Secretary At Once • Early returns from the Kiwanis questionnaire give a three to one lead favoring the use of the funds derived through the sale of the local light and power system to the Vir ginia Electric and Power Company for paving the town's sidewalks and a few of its principal streets. The questionnaire was mailed out only last Wednesday and up until noon to day only 40 had brtn returned, the count standing thirty for and ten against the use of the funds for pav ing the sidewalks and principal streets. The cards returned represent almost 20 per cent of the possible number to be received, 206 having been mailed out to the property own ers. Two cards carried short discussion* of the matter, one stating, "The town has absolutely no legit! right to use the money referred to in paving the streets or sidewalks except by pur chasing street improvement bonds from the town." The other card, in substance, stated that the property owners are over-burdened already without adding more on. A check of the cards clearly irtdi cates that a paving program will meet with favor of thoae who ar e in terested in the town's progress. How ever, there ar e one, or two among the ten voting "no" who hav played prominent part* in the town's prog reus during past years. To reach as definite a conclusion as ia possible to be reached regarding a possible paving program for th> town, those holding cards are asked to mail them to the Kiwanis secre tary at once. RECORDER HAS ELEVEN CASES * Several Defendants Fail to Answer; No Cases of Importance Eleven cases were called in the last Tuesday Reunion of the court here, there being none of any importance as far as financing thr court and schools were concerned.

WILL WAGE WAR ON CUTWORM IN MARTIN COUNTY County Agent Offers Ad vice as to Poisoning of Tobacco Peat STARTS FIGHT EARLY Many Farmers in County Suffered Considerable Loss Due To Pest Last Year In an effort to control tobacco cut worms in this county this sprint;, Demonstration Agent Brandon is of fering a special formula in combating thjC pest. Last year in this county many farmers experienced heavy losses caused by the cutworm, and in many instances the transplanting of plants was necessary in entire fields. The formula offered by Mr. Brandon and the cooperative extension division includes 50 pounds of wheat bran, 1 pound of Paris green and enough wa ter to moisten the two. This formula will give the best results, it was stated by the agent, who added that lead ar senate and calcium arsenate should not lie used in poisoning the worm, as these two poisons are not as effective as the wheat bran and Paris" green for mula. Mr. Brandon, rraliziiiK the damage resulting from the pest in Martin I County lust year, is starting an early fight against it, and all farmers who have had trouble with the worm or who anticipate any are asked to con sult him on the matter,. In preparing the material for use, according to the agent, the bran and poison should first be thoroughly mixed dry in a tub and should then be grad ually moistened with water and again thoroughly mixed so that all the bran is damp. The bran should be wet enough to critnble readily after being squeezed in the hand. The bait should not be sticky and by no means should I it be a soft mush. The bait should he broadcasted at die rate of IS or 20 pounds (dry weight)-per acre. It is belt to apply the bait several days before the plants arqatsct, or at the latest on the same day. Applications should be made late in the evening so that the bait will be fresh when the cut worms become ac tive. In 'making applications at the hill the bait should not he thrown up on the plants or against the stems. The j bait will continue to be effective for several days, but should 1). repeated at once after a heavy rain. In case cut worms are found dam aging plant beds, the poisoned bait should be broadcasted at the rate of 4 pounds (dry weight) to each 100 , square yards of plant bed. The cloth should be removed before making ap j plication; HOLD NUTRITION SCHOOL HERE t Leaders of Various Home Economics Club Here Yesterday The first leaders' school ill nutrition of the yeaMv'as held in Miss Sleeper's ofttce from 10:30 a. pi. to 4 p. m. yes terday.
