1HE GLEANER \ QRAHA1L N. C., JAN. 19, 193. IMC IB CTEEY THCESDAT. t J. D. KERNODLE Edit 31JX) A YEAR, IN AOVANGi ?bt?r*d at tne office atOraUac .N C.. as Mcui . laM matter A SUGGESTION i The Legislative Hopper .Sj quite an apt name for the wholesale introduction of indis-, criminate bills put before the ' ] legislature for its digestion. Of :, course plenty of them are indi-1J gestible and are quickly spat , out. There are others that taste j ( all right to some of the mem- , bers, for one reason or another, J and these get some considers- j tion; but after being chewed for a while some foreign and hurtful element is discovered and out they go to keep compa ny with the indigestible ones. And that's a good riddance. , After all, not all of the propo sitions are thoroughly and com pletely bad. Some of them have merit that should be pre served and incorporated into law, bnt there are so many clamoring for things for selfish ends that the conscientious leg islator is kept so busy weeding out the noxious that he has lit tle or no time for assimilating , and urging the things which are really constructive and help ful. And this brings us to this thought: Let the General As semblv organize, appoint the various committees, set a limit far the introduction of bills and ' resolutions; then recess to aj time certain to give the com mittees time to weigh and di- j gest what they have. After, this has been done, reassemble j and finish the job. Perhaps! such a course would save both time and money and produce better results. I ? SIGNAL LIGHTS No one, it matters not what sort of vehicle or conveyance, or h o w propelled or dra' should be jiermitted to be or use the highways at night with out displaying a light that could be seen at a safe distance./1' To do so is a menace to life a d property. It is believed there . is a statute requiring the dis play of signal lights at night on the highway. If there be such, it should be enforced; and a failure to display such lights should be a crime for which there should be adequate pun ishment. No one, by his own carelessness, should have the right to endanger the lives of other users of the highways. One driving on the highways at night without a light or lights not only hazzards and endang ers his own life and property, but does the same for other users of the highways at night. The Gleaner hopes Alamance's representatives in Raleigh will , give this matter thought and action. The Gleaner man ran down to Raleigh Wednesday just to take a look at the Solons. It was thought to see them in ac tion in the afternoon, but they had called off the game and , were devoting themselves to va rions committee meetings. And that was so much "love's labor lost." Alamance farmers who have tanned hides at borne following the recommendation of the State College animal husbandry depart-1' meat report good results. Some hides are tanned with the hair on to be need for rags in the home but most of them are tanned fori leather. 'nicks Versus Railroads; )r Vice Versa. That there is war on between wo powerful interests in the State ? the railroads and the ruck . is an op > secret. It is a matter of public inter >st?that concerns the public in i financial way. It also con :erns the two agencies at grips n a vitally financial way. Now, what is it all about? [n a nutshell, whether both parties concur or not, it is; The trucks have built up a jig business since the advent of jood roads; and they go into ;erritory remote from railroads ind gather their tonage. In stead of dumping their loadings st the nearest railroad station, they carry it, with a single loading, to its destination with a saving to both producer and consumer; Not only have the trucks done these things and hauled their loads alongside and across the railroads, but they claim to have saved and promoted busi nesses which today would not and could not exist without them by reason of the expediti ous and convenient service they render?this we do not know and can give no opinion; On account of these things] the railroads, t ..rough legisla tion, want to curb the activi ties of the trucks; at least, a move to that end is covered in a certain piecx, of legislation which the General Assembly will be asked to enact; This proposed legislation would reduce or limit the effi ciency of trucks in several ways ? would reduce their size, their loads, their speed, and do other thing as the truck people see it, that would militate against their interest as public carriers; The railroads have blazed the way uf civilization to a big de gree and the country cannot get along without them as a vehicle of commerce and com munication; but with all this in their favor, th<. preclusion of other modes of doing the same kinds of business is unwarrant ed; Besides the foregoing, other points of interest, pro and con, in an extended discussion of the merits of the proposed change in the law regulating the opera tion of trucks could be used and enlarged upon. While the railroads do not xnne into the open and an nounce their interest in the pro posed change in the law, the truck operators i laim to see the "''nigger in the w od pile,"' take & definite stand, and publish an array of facts in justification of their existence, economically, for the benefit of private busi ness and for the State. The truck operators wish it understood that they are "un opposed to intelligent, fair, effl uent and economical regulation . . . in the stile interest of better transportation" for man ufacture and commerce. The trucks cite these figures, compiled facts, which ar- as tounding, no doubt, to them selves and the ra roads, as well is to the people at large: Railroads have an investment [in N. C.) of $233,531,514 and pay $6,422,116.64 in taxes; and the tn ks (45,000) have an in vestment of $36,000,000 and pay $.,225,550 in taxes; or $803, 433.36 more than the rail roads. It looks like the trucks have made out their case when it comes to a revenue producer for the State, aud they ask to be allowed to live and bear their part of the burden, 8UBSC&IBI BOB TBB OUiJ U PARING EXPENSES It is a plain and unvarnished statement, that almost without exception, every citizen favors the reduction of all public ex litures. I ue National, State, County, City and Town governments are thinking in terms of drastic 'economy, and it is not in an unfriendly way toward the sal ary man that the taxpayer is supporting from a meagre in come, but is for the purpose of living and continuing to func tion at all. Everyone, without exception, will have to take his cut wheth er he likes it or not. If he does not like it, there are others ready to take his job for less pay, and a chance that the work would be done as well or better. In Alamance several thous ands of dollars are due to be saved by a reduction in salaries aud^the elimination of unneces ary jobs. The County Com missioners in December made a gesture at economy, but did not get oui of a slow walk, and it seems now, if the people want relief, they must get to gether and take the matter to the Legislature. ? ? In their desperation to get more money for the promotion an J maintenance of pet schemes, there are legislators who would cripple the road pro gram by diverting a part of the receipts to other purposes in vi olation of the faith upon which the road program was founded. Some make the plea that the jtate has ample roads. Of the main "thoroughfares there are enough to get along with, but the "forgotten man" who has contributed his share to ftiad building is still unprovided for. i He, too, must be taken care of the same as the man on the main highways. To him it would be grossly unfair and un just to take from the fund for other purposes. \1 group of Orange county ? 'tiers have raised funds to buy a l'ercheron stallion.

If space would permit, The Gleaner would like to Rive the Governor's inaugural address in full, but instead is giving 24 maiu and outstanding points which ap pear below. Most people will a gree that most of them are worth while and vital at the present time. It's up to the Legislature to help him put into affect those which would prove inoet helpful and beneficial under present con ditions. 1. A balanced budget imme diately. 2. Levy of no new taxes. 3. Immediate revaluation of property. 4. Relief from the 15 - cent statewide levy for support of schools. 5. Drastic curtailment in spending. C. Economy in general gov ernmental set-up. 7.
