V. Holcomb, and adjacent to the J. C. Penney Co., store. The new business, it is said, will be conducted by a Mr. Boyles, of Pilot Mountain, and a Mr. Pr.lmer, of Winston-Salem. It is understood Mr. Boyles has already made preparations to move his family here. *— Work of remodeling the store building which the new business is to occupy, has been underway for several days.

No offenders re ceived sentences. ll',/,; * I i During past two 950.53 was expended toy' state to cover all costs of the'hjighway patrol and the department >mad«, a definite monetary return # S6so> 404.22, which is over two times the cost of the department. It is pointed out in the report that "while the law establishing the patrol designates the duties and powers of the organization, it is imperative that each iodWdu&l 1 in the patrol assumes the responsibility to handle the other 'en forcement work. Each of > ( our men must act as a police officer v motor vehicle inspector, constable, investi gator, detective agent, mechanic and in nearly every other enforcement capacity a3 circumstances demand." In carrying on the work through the many phases listed above, the patrolman is, in line of duty, sub jected to many unusual hardships WOMAN LOST 20 POUNDS OF FAT Lost Her Prominent r Hips— Double Chin Sluggishness fiained Physical Vigor— A Shapely Figure.'

In a period of three y-ears five men in the patrol have met death or have been permanent ly disabled in line of duty. The report further states that "During the two years we fought 49 fires, saving from destruction thousands of dollars worth of property. The patrol also recovered 194 stolen cars." In conclusion the report states that 90 per cent of the drivers in the state do not know the laws and rules of the road. It suggests the publication of a directory with the name and address of the car owners, license numbers and make of all cars registered in the state, so that members of the patrol will have this information with them at all times, thereby eliminating a great deal of time and expense. Name Men To Aid In Securing Loans (Continued from Page One) seeking to borrow money from the corporation in making out their ap plications in proper form, thus faci litating the preliminary work and helping to save time and eliminate "red tape" in getting the loans through. Fees for attorneys, paid by the applicants, are limited to one-half of one per cent of the loan, with a minimum of $1 and a maximum of $12.50, on chattels and liens, while the fees on real property will be governed by the amount of work in volved in preparing the abstract and mortgage. Attorneys, as well as county farm agents, are agreeing to perform the duties connected with making loans largely for patriotic and community reasons, Mr. Sted man states, pointing out that county agents are co-operating splendidly. Interest on the loans is at the rate of 5 % per cent and a small inspection fee, depending on the size of the loan, will be added, Mr. Stedman states. Loans are not to be made to per sons who may be interested in agri culture and receiving the major part of their income from other sources, but they will be confined to actual dirt farmers whose main livelihood comes from farming, poultry, live stock and dairy operations, Mr. Stedman states. It is the farm own er, too. and not the tenant farmer, who will be the beneficiary of the Regional Agricultural Credit Cor poration's Those en gaged in producing crops, raising cattle, operating dairies and raising poultry on their own land will be extended loans under the regulations of the corporation, the vice-president and manager announces. Loans are made direct from the Raleigh office and do not have' to be passed upon in Washington, thus eliminating time and trouble and permitting the borrowers to get their money much earlier than otherwise would be the case, Mr. Stedman states. PEOPLES' COLUMN Ibe Tribune does not necessar ily endorse any article under this heading but welcomes at all times communications of interest to its readers and the general public. A READER DRAWS SOME COMPARISONS Mr. Editor: Plase let me speak again through the Peoples' Column. The legisla ture is now in session and things are being done that will affect all of us, more or less, also Congress will soon be in session again and all phases of government will change hands the 4th of March. Now is an opportune time to speak. It is a well known fact that there Is something wrong with our coun try. I noticed in one of our religious journals the other day where an imminent divine said that there were three things that caused all of our present troubles: The inordinate greed for gain in the way of making money, the corruption of education and the forsaking of the churches. I begun to let my mind run back a little and I discovered that in our own school district 30 years ago we were paying our only teacher $20.00 per month, we had a four months school and the total of the cost of the school was about $90.00 per term, with about 75 pupils in~ at tendance. At that time there were several teachers in the community that went out from our district. They were teaching In other sec tions. We now have a three-teacher school, with 100 pupils, whose teachers receive from SBO.OO to SIOO.OO per month and who teach six months in the year, the cost being about $1,700.00 per term. So far as I know none of the scholars can advance far enough to teach, so you can plainly see that there is something wrong there. In former times people made their own living on farms, taxes were not high, they seemed to love each other more, they would visit during the week and go to church on Sun day and nearly everybody was hon est. There was seldom a mortgage made. Look how it is now, with nearly everything mortgaged and people seem like they are mad. Thirty or forty yars ago every body had respect for the church and nearly everyone went to the servi- THE ELKIN TRIBUNE, ELKIN, NORTH CAROLINA ces. It is true they did not hate what they call an educated ministry —but they did not need it so much —they had the power &t God, which means more than all the learning anyone can get. It is also true that we did not have to pay so much for our preaching. Why, if a preacher had said much about money folks would not have gone back again, in fact, it was almost degrading for a preacher to call for money. We have advanced, either up or down— until we pay almost as much for our religion and religious training as we do for our education. It is said that our Southern Baptists are in debt 118,000,000.00 and the state of North Carolina owes $600,000,000.- 00 or thereabouts, this is not all for schools. I notice that the present legislature is about to pass a law forbidding married women from be ing employed by the state. I would be ashamed of that if I were them. 1 also notice that they are going to turn off 17 single girls from their employment. I would be ashamed of that also. Why in the name of high heaven can't they stop paying so many high salaries to those big ikes up near the top and let the poor THE NEW FORD H IS HERE ✓ * New, longer, wider bodies. * Five distinctive, one-piece, electrical * 112-inch wheelbase. ly welded steel spoke wheels. * Striking body lines and colors. * Finger-touch steering. * New skirted fenders * Safe, reliable four-wheel mechanicaJ Smooth-running V-type eightrcylin- brakes, fully enclosed. der engine; 75 horsepower. * Twenty-degree slanting windshield. * All-aluminum cylinder heads. * Safety glass windshield in all body * Engine cushioned in live rubber types. * Twenty-five anti-friction roller and * Safety-glass throughout in all Deluxe ball bearings. cars. • * Remarkable acceleration. * New riding comfort because of the *BO miles per hour exclusive Ford-designed transverse * Unusual oil and fuel economy. cantilever spring, properly controlled * Automatic spark control. by four double-acting self-adjusting * Silent second speed. shock absorbers. * Silent, synchronized gear shift. * Deep-cushioned seats, with goodlook * Fully counterbalanced 6 5 • pound 1 ing, long-wearing upholstery, crankshaft. * Attractive appointments and finish. * Aluminum pistons. * Low first cost and low cost of opera * Downdraft carburetor, with silencer. tion and upkeep. * Torque-tube drive. * Tire size, 5.50 inches x 17 inches. * Three-quarter floating rear axle. * Rustless steel headlamps. * Straddle mounted rear-axle driving * Ename'ed parts are bonderized for pinion. protection against rust. * New double-channel, double-drop X- * All Deluxe cars are equipped with type frame. two matched tone horns, cowl lamps * Steel bodies, insulated to insure quiet. and two rear lamps.

Jones, at that time South ern Railway agent at Elkin, to the bill of lading in question. x W. E. Jones then took the stand and stated that he did not sign his name to the bill of. lading, nor did he authorize anyone to sign for him. He testified that the handwriting was not his nor that of any of his assistants. R. L. Lowery, superintendent • o the Biltrite plant during tl.'®> Frazier regime, testified that no car answer ing the description in the bill of lading introduced in evidence, was ever shipped from the factory. Following this testimony, the state rested its case, and the de fense made a motion to dismiss the action on grounds of failure to show intent. The motion was not al lowed. The defense opened with a deposit tion from Dr. Arthur E. Futrelle, of the Sheppard and Enoch Pratt hos pital, of Baltimore, Md., which stat ed that in the opinion of Dr. Futrelle, Frazier did not know the difference in right and wrong at the time he was admitted to the Balti more hospital shortly after the al leged offense had been committed. Dr. J. G. Burrus, of High Point, executed a similar deposition setting out facts substantially the same as contained in that of Dr. Futrelle. In rebuttal of this testimony, the state called to the stand in succes sion W. W. Whitaker, W. V. Hol comb, F. M. Norman, R. L. Harris, J. F. Mosley, J. R. Poindexter and H. P. Graham, all of Elkin, who testified that to the best of their knowledge and belief, Frazier was Thursday, February 16, 1933 sane and knew what he was doing at the time of the alleged offense. Mrs. Frailer, wife of the defend ant, stated from the witness stand that at the time of the alleged crime her husband was not himself and was not mentally competent to transact business. Dr. M Royall and Dr. H. C. Salmons, who had both served Fra zier in a professional way during his sojum in Elkin, were not placed on the stand by the defense. Attorneys assisting Solicitor Hig gins in the case are W. M. Allen and Harry H. Barker, of Elkin, and A. D. Folger, of Dobson. Frazier is represented by Attorneya R. A. Freeman, of Dobson, Hayden Burke, of TaylorßVllle, and E. C. Blvins, of Mount Airy. Eighteen men were killed and 25 injured aboard the rebellious Dutch cruiser De Zeven Provincien when a naval fighting plane dropped a bomb on the ship's deck Friday, forcing the mutinous native crew to surrender. The dead comprise three Europeans and five Japanese na tives. One Dutch officer and one young Dutchman were slightly wounded.
