Declaring with temper in his voice that "the commission ami the yowrnor are Koiiifj to be placed in an embarrassing position." Avails, who was appointed highway iiimmissioner last year, said that while "we are committed to a pro gram to provide all-weather farm-lo-maiket roads lor the farmers of the slate, we are .just not breaking loose on this program." ONE-TENTH Just how thor i Hi).; lily the commission is not "breaking loose" on its program was not made public by Evans. What be should have said is this: Since this comiiiission began its work last July, fewer than 100 miles of all-weather improvements to rural roads have been contract edor less than one-lent h of a mile per county! The new contracts will call for attention to 340 miles of naved roads and lit) miles of country roads . . . this, dispite all of (lie hulla baloo that has ben raised about the condition of our secondary roads system. Taka !'"iir t filowlv, S. C. Evans could have pointed to just a little bit south of North Carolina to the stale we used to thank heaven for, because il kepi llns slate off the bottom. Evans knows that in the month of Jan uary South Carolina awarded con tracts for the all-wealheriiiL' of iOO miles of country roads. In April, he could have told the com mission. South Carolina will award contracts for the improvement of 700 more miles of rural roads. In other words. South Carolina will do 12 times as much for coun try roads in four months as wealthy North Carolina has done in nine months. NOW Now is the tmic to sec your highway commissioner about RED roads not next winter. Nolh ing can be done' next w inter. NOW IS THE TIME. The first item of business on the agenda of county commissiours' meetings throughout the state next Monday should be the improve ment of the roads over which chil dren must ride to school and over which farm produce must reach the market. nii-ciii-o r,"" Tom-hla) i.ti..

They have had this Japan thing cooking in Washiii'don for some lime. iseiieve il or mil . there are num erous hangers-on in Cherry's ad ministration who take great de light in not working with him on political mailers. They attend to I heir duties all right -no quarrel there. Hill lliere is a feeling in Raleigh thai many of lliem are not as loyal as Ihey might be. Although this situation would never exist at least il never existed under Hioiigblon, il seems to be doing all right under Governor Cherrv In bis lirsl year in olliee Ilrough Ion w as ruthless in regard to I hose who looked in the direction of Horton's camp in 1040, and even before he was sworn in. many non supporters saw the handwriting on the wall. Sometimes their politi cal demise came more like a bolt of lightning than any handwright ing -as Oscar Pills sometimes called Hroughton's "Hatchet man." might tell you. Of course. Hie hatchet finally turned on Oscar. TOLERANT Don't think Cherry doesn't know what is going on. He does -bill he's just tolerant at least temporarily so. He feels that these officials are doing their work well, and there is slill time be tween now and l!)4li to make col lections if the situation demands it it. Cherry isn't the type who wants blind obedience and ouis-biil-lo-do men. Everybody thought he was when lv took olliee, and they look ed for a "liousecleaning." but this administration has been in power a year and three months now. and much to the amazement of many, the liousecleaning is still "just around the corner." EMPLOYEES -At the present time, one person out of every 1!11 North Carolina citizens is winking for the state. That's right. We now have 14.000 stale employees out of a total population of li.TiTI. 023. This might appear too many unless we turn our eves norlhward to Virginia and find thai one per son out of every 104 is on the stale teat . , . or Hi.UOO out of a lopulation of 2.077,773.

NOTES -'I he gossip around Ral ciuh persists that Monroe Redden of lleiidersonville will win out over veteran Congressman Zob Weaver in the Twelfth--but it's going to be tight. If Major John Lang of Car thage is active in support of C. H I'eane of Rockingham, Deane should win over Hill Horner of Saidoid lather handily. However. Kaleigh heard ivia Washington' week Ihat Horner would niei.e victor in the Eighth.

Although now Comptroller Gen iial, Lindsay Warren slill keeps a ' ' I'm band on politics in the First. It slill looks like Thurmond Chat ham iMankets) in Ihe Fifth, largelv because of Congressman John Fol fer s peculiar attitude. But Jose phus Daniels' New Dealish News and Observeris having spasms be cause of this turn of events. Chat ham wasn't a Roosevelter all the way, and that settles things as far as Joe Daniels is concerned. Thur mond should feel happy that this paper isn't in his district. TWIST-UP- Lt. Gov. L. y. Bal lentine, candiuate for Governor, may be crossed up by Bruoghton supporlers in this manner: Bal lentine and Broughton are great pals, though Stag doesn't lean on J. M. . . not necessarily so But Hroughton's folks want W. B. Um stead of Durham, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Com mittee, to run for Governor so that he won't run against Brough ton for the U. S. Senate. This would make plenty of trouble for Hallentine, and might make every thing nice for Broughton. So here vou have Hallentine and Brough ton. botli Wake County Democrats, shooting at each other - with Urn stead as the deadly ammunition . . it's a great world.
