did not give those figures to the General
Assembly. And they were off.
Dr. McDonald and five newspapermen
descended upon Mr. Maxwell in
his office last week for a personal
encounter, goodnaturedly. of course.
Who won, or got the better, the
scribes do not agree. Nor could the
public, had it been listening in. For
tax matters are intricate for the lay
mind, except in paying.
However, if the controversy continues,
it may be serviceable in getting
over to a Irge part of the understanding
public what the tax problem
is all about, and be informative
to the lay mind. If it were some less
technical subject, the public would
"eat it up." As it is. only a small
tax educated few enjoy it.
GAS NOW READY
The lethal gas chamber has now
been completed and is passing thru'
the experimental stage, to make sure
it will snuff out the lives of felons
ordered to die. Ed Jenkins, Bessemer
City white man, convicted of murder,
was scheduled to die December
6, but Governor Ehringbaus gave a
reprieve in order that the chamber
and its effectiveness might bo studied.

GOVERNOR VS. SENATOR
Governor Kh:::igh&us is making it:
hot for Senator Dickinson, of Iowa, j
who is Seeking the Republican nomi- j
nation for Presiueul. and who was on,
the program and spoke before the
New York State Chamber recently.'
Senator Dickinson, saying he would'
observe the proprieties and not discuss
politics, then lit into the New
Deal and the Democratic Administra-j
tion. Governor Ehringhaus, following)
him on the program, said if the!
speech was free from politics, lie I
liked ro hear the Senator discuss poll- j
ties, invited him to North Carolina j
to no it ana ottered him a debate on
the New Deal. Senator Dickinson,
iater to newspaper men. in a huif,
said he would have to "check up" on
North Carolina relief contributions.
Governor Ehringhaus, so informed
and asked by one of the news men
for a statement, invited the "check
up" in a letter replying-, saying that
while N. C. makes the highest per
capita contribution to the Federal
treasury, she receives the lowest per
capita in total Federal expenditures,
ar.d checking ail stales as to payments
ami receipts, "-North Carolina j
made the highest net contribution of j
any state in the Union." He showed
that the Senator's state of Iowa re- j
ceived back from the ^ '*rernTTter.t ten
times as much as she contributed,!
while North Carolina contributed two
and a half times as much as she got
back. In processing taxes N. C. paid
nearly $30,000,000, and got back in ]
AAA benefits slightly more than
$10,000,000, while Iowa paid about
$9,f>00,000 and got back over $15,000,.
000.
Since the Civil War, this state "has
been bearing a tremendously dispro-1
portionate burden of contribution to!
the Federal Treasury based on her to- j
bac.co and other products," which j
losses "are ultimately and always!
reflected primarily in the prices received
by growers. Governor Ehringhaus
wrote the news man.
NEW ADOPTION" LAW
The new N. C. law on adoption of
minor children became effective December
1 The law provides that records
of adoption be filed in locked
vaults and are not available except on
a written order of a Judge of superior
court. Investigation must be
made before a child is adopted, of
the chiid, its parents and foster parents.
The child is placed on trial for
one year, but must be finally adopted
within two years. Records are to be
kept of all adoptions, birth certificates
must be filed, natural parents
are to be punished for kidnapping or
abducting their children after they
are adopted. Children adopted must
be of N. C. residents. The state Board
of Charities and Public Welfare administers
the law.
WOULD EXTEND SERVICE
Cities and towns, especially those (
having municipal electric plants, are

Suggestions For
Planting Pecans
Pecan trees may be set out in the
coastal plain and Piedmont section
o' the state any time from late X u v

In the spring.
But where winters are more se- '
the best transplanting time is
enr'y in the spring, said Robert :
Schmidt, associate horticulturist of i
| the X. C. Agricultural Experiment
Station.
; ecai.s thrive on a great variety
of -soils: heavy clay soil, light sandy I
river bottoms that are weil-:
: rained. but they will not do well on
underlain with quicksand or !
p t Jpan, or on land that does not !

Schley, Stuart, Success, Pabst, and
a" y are good varieties for the coas- '
la] plains. Stuart is best for the
Piedmont, and Indiana and Busseron
.^c good for the upper Piedmont and ,
mountain areas of the state. Schmidt ,
said.
The roots of trees for planting j
