There was universal satisfaction and j
enthusiasm among the farmers who ;
doubled their money today and many
expressions of gratification by mem
' bers of the association whose second
payments were larger than their first
r- owing to the increase in payment
v which thir organization has made since
the co-oeprative warehouses were first

Instructors at "State
College Charged With
Making Wine to Resign
'RALltlGH.Dec. 20. Dr. W. C. Rid
dick, president of the North Carolina
College of Agriculture and Engineer
ing, today officially confirmed reports
that a general Vtnderptiindipgi had been
reached by which the "four) Instructors
reported to the.cpllege authorities by
students for making wine in their
rooms would resign.
"I have received and a'ceepted the
resignation of Jlr. Busby but have not
yet received those of Mr. Buckner, Mr.
Miller and Mr. Park." stated Dr. Rid
dick, when asked for a statement in
regard to the matter.
'"I deplore the publicity which has
been given the matter and had expect
ed it to be settled by thg voluntary
resignations of thos involved."
Official denial was also given by Dr.
Riduick to the statement that the in
structors had been exonerated by the,
trustees of the college contained in a
statement signed by approximately 400
students.
'"The students are unfamiliar with
the facts about that,' he said. "The
matter was not laid before the trus
tees at all at their meeting Tuesday,
because it was considered that it had
been settled so as to cause the college
the least embarrassment by the agree
mnt of the young men involvd to re
sign." Denial that the signers shared the
Indignation of those students who re
ported the conduct of the four instruct
ors to the colleeg authorities was also
contained in the petition which was
( circulated generally at the college
' Wednesday and was signed by most of
the students reached by the circulat
ors, it was said.
' Dr. Rlddlck said he did not know
- how many students were concerned in
the investigation which resulted in the
securing of proof against the instruct
ors, but he had understood they rep
resented the "moral element" of the
. student body.
- j. aeveiopeu yesteraay that, acting
upon a complaint from the college
community, the police of Raleigh Fri

certificates of stock."
Setting forth that "by virtue of- the
statutes there is nothing of value pps-

to escane taxation. Justice Adams ae-
capital stock?" Further on he says:
"The constitution requires that invest
ments in bonds shall be taxed, but it
does not forbid the exemption of shares
from taxation when the capital stock
itself is taxed." .
Justice Adams states that "We have.
examined the case cited by the plain
, tifr H hav made a somewhat dill
f in the fact that that is based
on a -I a isc uruimsr. uu
shares of stock in domestic corpora-
I iti vi io..!., j - -

while the Case mignt oe auowea to go
off on a question or proceaure. it s
probably npt amiss for us to say that,
in our opinion, the policy heretofore
established by the legislature and now
in vogue in this state is entirely per
missable and ia in full compliance with
the constitutional requirements above
T-JpitP and that the sections . of the L
revenue and machinery , acts, here
called in question, are valid." ""'
iChief Justice Clark contributes little
more to his past utterance on the sub
ject. He has always maintained the
constitution was being violated "by
what he terms the exemption of stocks
and bonds from taxation. - Decraring
that the tax rate on real and personal
property would be reduced one-third
with the taxation of the individual for
the stock he holds, "there is no more
reason that owners "of the stocks which
the corporations have sold to them
should be exempted than that bonds or
the indebtedness held by the individual
thould be exempt from taxation." After
citing President Harding'e advocacy
for a federal amendment forbidding the
issuance of "tax-free" securities as evi
dence of a union-wide" demand, the
chief justice declares the "steady accu
mulation of vast masses of wealth by
corporations and individuals is a-menace
to our constitution," and then goes
cn: '
"These vast accumulations are seek
ing investments and are also in publio
favor now by - legislation fostering
loans to farmers and others upon mort
gages. The result of this will be thai
many farmers and others will become
mortgagees and,, therefore, tenants' at
will upon property they now own, and
gradually we will become a nation ot
peasants and laborers. What la needed
is not this semi-charity ostentatiously
doled out. but simple Justice by en
forcing the constitutional provision re
quiring the taxation of investments in
stocks and bonds equally and uniform
ly with other property."
"""The justices closed Colonel Person's
suit by asserting that if the railroads
are, entitled to have their claim of.
over-taxation paid by the courts the
masses of people, "those who, not own
ing exempted property, af-e flaying the
taxes on the Property Illegally ex
empted, have their right to have their
claim considered and the constitution
enforced."
Colonel Person brought the suit" be
fore Judge Calvert in" Wake superior
court last July. The state' demurrer
was sustained, but the former senator
appealed, fighting : the proceeding
through both -courts single-handed. ,
The supreme court adjotxrhed. sine die
at noon today: .

- NEW YORK. Dec. 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press) . Gov, E.' Mont Reily, of
Porto Rico, stated today tjo the Asso
ciated Press that the statements sent
out from New York' that he had criti
cized any individual or political party
in or out ; of Porto Rico .were entirely
incorrect. He added:
"I have never given an Interview in
Porto Rico nor in he states pertaining
to.: Porto Rico affairs where I have
criticised 1; . any ' citizen of Porto Rico
Or any political party.
"I desire to say in reply to the state
ment made by a.'. Porte ! Rican citizen
that a grand jury had made a present
ment against me that not only by the
Uwer court, but ; by .unanimous vote of
the supreme court, 1 1 was " fully exoi
erated. i y
"As to the statement made from
Washington by a, Porto Rican that no
other officials had been' criticised by
a grand Jury, . I desire to say that Jose
K. Benedicto, insular treasurer, .whom
I removed from office, and six of his
deputies, were. 4ndicted by the f ederal.
grand jury soon after 'I removed him
from office! On account of the re-J
moval of the treasurer, Benedicto, this
last attack was made on me. Appoint
ing Mr. Benedicto's successor, I , ap
pointed Ramon Aboy, Jr.. one of the
leading unionists and business men of
the island. At the same .tinie.M ap
pointed & new secretary of state who
was also a prominent unionist.
"Since I have been on the island I
have made 186 .appointments of which
112 were unionists, 60 republicans and
14 socialists. When the legislature met
last February I sent to the senate
nominations of 35 unionists, seven re-
publicans ana two Bocmiu. .
I have been more man iair w "-1"5
unionists and the only reasonable com
plaint might be from the republicans
and socialists. '
"I want to say so that the- conti
nentals may understand that the so
cialists of Porto Rico are not the so
cialists of America. The Porto Rican

lone ranere. were iinderatnmi tnHa .
h hare been called . sharply, to the atten
tion or tne senates naval committee, in
consideration of the pending naval.. ap
propriation .;.ouu, .. -Naval officers are
known to be greatly concerned, on-'the
.point, as - the British have virtually
completed post-war modernization of
their 15-inch gun ships' ' and no start
on similar work has yet been made in
the American navy. , .
The effect of the :Brftish post-war
improvements, it was said today in - na
val circles,, was to give the entire main
British fleet a range of 80,000 yards
again-sC-a maximum, of about 20,000
yards for all American battleships, but
the Tennessee, California, Maryland,
Colorado and West Virginia, in addi
tiop, as permitted under the Washing
ton treaty, the British ehips have been
equipped with "blister", anti-torpedo
construction and their decks armored
against airplane bombs and high angle
'fire;. '
rough estimate"of the cost of mod
ernizing American ships in the same
way, so far as 'increasing- grin eleva
tions and "strengthening decks is con
cerned, is approximately $60,000,000. In
the British program, as much as $40,
000,000 is said to have been expended
on a single ship.
When naval estimates were under
consideration in the budget bureau and '.
later before the ( house appropriations
sub-committee,- it-was said, "funds' were4
asked by navy officials for a limited
program beginning this year on mak

Change from coal to oil fuel Is of
vital importance in widening the ef
fective radius of-action of the ships, It
was explained by naval officials.
The most striking- point to which at
tention is being . directed, however, is
that of long range -big gun fire.- Op
posed to the modernized British fleet
today, navy, officers have stated, the
bulk of the American fleet would face
the neceseity of closing In Ave miles
