Legislators to Withdraw the Measure , With the exception of three Kiwani ans, who were excused from voting;, jvery member of the Wilmington Ki wanis club in attendance at mereg- ular weeKiy luncneon- neiu .vt? , . 1 . A. .J afternoon, vuieu I as being -opposed to , the bill now pending ln;tfte?enra' assemhly, wnicn u passea, win piauc the sheriff and the clerk of the superior court of New Hanover county upon , a fee basis. J Upon a motion of Kiwanian G. Her bert Smith, which was seconded by . 'Kiwanian C. C. Chadbourn. it was t. unanimously voted that telegrams should be immediately sent to Lieu-tenant-Governor "W. B., Cooper, State Senator K. O. Burgwin and Represen tative Emmett Bellamy stating the po rtion, of the Kiwanis club regarding the fee system bill, and asking that It be not passed. The telegrams, were sent to -Raleigh by Secretary , J. C. Hobbs yesterday - afternoon, i It was after President James S. Wii- , liams had declared that the executive committee of -the Kiwanis club had considered the advisability of the club - discussing the pros and cons of the I .fee system bill, with the decision that It was not a matter of politics but of V legislation, that the member; of the organization entered into the discus ' sion of the bill at the meeting yes terday. Those who spoke as being un reservedly opposed to the placing of any officials of this county upon the fee system were: George L. Peschau, Louis J. Poisson, ' W. S. Townes, G. Herbert Smith, James S. Williams, C. C. Chadbourn and E. C. Craft.- Ki wanian W. ft. Doslier, who is a member of the county commissioners, spoke, and explained his position in the mat ter, also that of the other commis .. ioners. Ionp; Session , , Although the length of the regular 'weekly meetings of the Kiwanis were some time ago restricted to one hour from 2 to 3 o'clock the discussion of the merits of the fee system kept the members of the club in session until after o'clock. Except Wilbur R. Dosher. county commissioner, and W. P. McGlaughon, register of deeds, -who was excused from voting because 'they were county officers, and Rev, George Stanley Fraser, pastor of Fifth Avenue Methodist church, who was ex cused from voting on his request, ev ery one present voted as being un- , favorable to the placing of any of the county officers on a fee basis. Kiwanian R. C. Craft, certified ac- countant, who recently audited the county books of Pender county, which ' county has several officers on the fee basis, declared he was absolutely op posed to a fee system for any officers of the county. He said that in going 5 over the Pender county books he found that the sheriff had been paid approxi mately 110.000 for last year's work. .'- : Kfwanian C. C. Chadbourn stated that he knew of a sheriff of New-Hanover county who left the city with $100,000 which he made whes the sheriff of this county was on a fee system. He said that this occurred during the days of the "carpet bag gers." A change from the present sys- " tern to the -fee basis would be a dis tinct step backward, he said. Kiwanian George i Peschau was most emphatic in his denunciation of the fee system. He declared that to revert back to the fee basis was noth ing more than farming out a county office or offices. If the county commis sioners want to pay the sheriff or the clerk of the superior court more money they should arrange to give them a larger salary instead of resorting to , the fee. system, the speaker said. President James S.' Williams was "of the opinion that when working upon ,.a fee basis the sheriff and his deputies were overzealous in making arrests and servingpapers, for which they re ceived a certain fee. He told of the , V trouble his company had in keeping laborers years ago when the sheriffs office was working upon fees. He, said ... that persons, particularly colored la borers, were arrested on the slightest . ' provocation and sometimes without .provocation. " Kiwanian W. R. Dosher explained the position of the county commis 7 jsioners. . He said that he was glad ' that the Kiwanis club was taking the ". matter up, but said that it should have - '; been done before the bill was drawn and placed in the hands of Senator Burgwin and Representative Bellamy. : Kiwanian Dosher stated that the meas ure was discussed for five weeks be ' - fore it was finally recommended by the commissioners.

"The federal reserve act describes a trade acceptance as a draft of bill of exchange, drawn by the seller on tho purchaser . of goods sold, and accepted byvsuch purchaser. ' "A slightly less technical description would be that a trade acceptance is a time- draft by a seller of goods upon a buyer- thereof for the purchase price and accepted by the- buver with- Vii promise to pay at a specified time and place., "It is a'negotiable evidence of a sale of merchandise and an. acknowledg ment of the seller by the buyer of the latter's obligation 'to pay for - goods bought according, to sales terms "Ijf' connection with all transactions wherein groods are actually sold on time and title passes, the trade accept ance mays be used to the advantage of both buyer and seller.'

Trades Council Will Consider Wage Cuts Schedule Announced by Contrac tors to Be, Discussed at Meeting Tonight Further developments regarding the 20 per cent reduction in the wages of labor engaged in commercial building, which the, contractors of the city re cently announced would toecome effec tive February 26, are looked for to night when the Wilmington Trades council meets to consider the steps taken by the general and sub-contractors of Wilmington. No new announcements were made yesterday or last night by either the union men or the contractors, but the union men are still maintaining that they intend to hold the local contrac tors to the agreements which they claim to hold with 30 or more builders of this city. These agreements, .the union men say, expire at different dates, some beginning in a few weeks and others running until the fall, and they have. resolved to stick by them.
