XI.?The major battle ot the general assembly will be (ought over the issue of an boneat election law. This is clearly evident and the big light will start this week. Gov. erhor Gardner, hundreds of thousands ol citizens and practically every newer paper of the state are lined up on the side, of an honest secret ballot sys tem; the peanut politicians and those others who still think an election is something to be controlled are fighh ing the measure and have succeeded in getting the Australian ballot bill reported to the house from committee with an amendment which would ex. empt counties from its terms If they desire exemption, and this will defeat the whole purpose of the secret ballot system, which is to have honest elec tions throughout the state. It la gen. erally recognized that the county elec tions are controlled and it is planned to end this control and let the people choose their own county officers. Those who are fighting the measure, for the most part, fear the political consequences to themselves and their friends if honesty is inaugurated at the polls. There is the big fight?it it a battle between those who desire elections on the square and those who want them so that they can control them for their own purposes. The big guns in this fight will be fired this week when the bill gets to the floor of the legislature. ljj< promises to be a record-making struggle. Next to that will come the fight ov< er education. There are a half dozen bills in the hoppers of the two houses providing for various kinds of educa. ticnal control and the governor has K<. fAiiphf hv monv Kiit lha ftihgpg tJr tv/ugttt try fnlUly vut tfltr vlffviO uu not seem to present any real solution. Governor Gardner's plan would pro vide for an increase in the equalizing fund for public schools by nearly two million dollars, the money to be ap. portioned out to make the six months school possible without too heavy lo cal taxation, to reHeve those counties which have been carrying the eight months, term without state aid and to extend the length of the term wher ever' possible, having in mind an a* timate eight months term without re. sorting to constitutional amendment. Another plan provides a 40 cent tax in each county for school purposes to assure the eight months term. This measure has beat the governor's in getting a favorable report and may be aired on the flopr_this week _ It will mean' reduction of taxes Tor schools Jo some counties and increases in others. The governor's plan however is favor ed by most of the legislators and pio. babiy will be victorious as It will a sure educational relief without dls turblnt taxation systems too mucti.l and that is the primary object of tbe| legislature this year. The third major question before the general assembly Is the roads tax and roadbuilding plans. It Is practically certain that the gasoline tax will be Increased one cent but the question of what to do with this is pussllng many. A compromise bill has receiv ed committee approval and may be ar. gued on the floor of the general as sembly this week. It piovldes that this extra tax money on gasoline shall be set aside for use la developing county highways with the provision that county levies shall not be In. ci eased by more than ten per cent ov er last year. It Is also provided that this fund must be administered under aupervislcu t f the stato highway com mission. This will keep nut those who merely want the fund to be turn ed over to county commissioners for road work, which means that It pro. bably will be squandered and nothing good will result Governor Gardner is understood to be favorable now to the bill which will provide for super vision under the state of certain coun. ty roads, this being the only change from his original plan which provid ed for additional roads to be taken ov er and made part of the state system. The bill approved incorporates his ideas and while there will be a fight, his side probably will be victorious. With the session halfway over the legislature thus far has not handled any of the major problems. Of course a great deal of work has been done in committees but to the observer It appears that a lot of work might have been done in handling local bills and lesser Important statewide bills If the legislators had made up their minds to get them out of the way while the major measures were in commltttee. Now, many of the lesser hlWBiusf he considered la the last month of the session and also there must be con sidered the finance bills, appropria tion and revenue measures, road bills, school bills, secret ballot bill, and others. This means that there will be an Inevitable rush which may cause some important bills either to be neg lected entirely or passed hastily with out due study of many of their re quirements. During the week the senate tabled an important and estimable bill, one providing for pensions for widows and dependents of policemen and sheriffs slain In line of duty and assessing a special tax of one dollar on all con victed in criminal court in order to pay the bills for this fund. It passed the house but was tabled In the senate. However, it will come up for consider ation again this week when it win be I called frdm the table. Another lm- I portant measure which must be con. | aldered is that providing for establish ment of a state highway patrol with a state.wlde licensing act for auto driv ers. This measure Is still in commit tee but is said to have a fair chance to pass at this session. Road authorities arm In favor of It because they believe it will cut down materially the number of accidents on the roads of the state which, are dally taking nearly two lives on the average. An annual honor came to a Raleigh woman daring the week, nr. rv?iu Dixon Carroll was elected president of the Raleigh Academy of Medicine. It is the first time that a woman has been so honored. Dr. Carroll Is well known throughout the state and Is prominent in civic tflub circles and women's move ments. The general assembly paused during tte week to honor the memory of Andrew Johnson, the man who fled from being a tailor's apprentice In Ralelg], and returned later as presi dent of the United States. Represen-1 tatlve Oscar Haywood of Montgomery county and Judge Robert W. Winston | were the chief speakers. Seven inebriates escaped from the state asylum for Insane last Friday and have never been heard from since. The men had been enroute to a dance In the asylum grounds when they over powered the guards and escaped. The Raleigh police department Is on the alert for hold.up men following four, hold ups during the past three weeks. Business establishments have been tbe victims of the raids. Two arrests and convictions have been made, account ing for those who held up one place but the other robberies remained un solved.

BKJEAT1 14 HUDSON Q A \ and Motordom calls for EUiGESTHEESfW output of all time Already in response to the public's demand, production of the Greater Hudson has been increased, and then increased again ? by far the largest schedule Hudson ever found necessary. In their own words, by their marked and recorded ballots, motorists by tens of thotftands are telling us the Greater Hudson is truly the great est of all time. Voting in every Hudson salesroom in the country, these enthusiastic multitudes have piled up the most convin^ingcndorsementin Hudson history.* Perhaps even more im portant, they nave bought these beautiful new Hudsons in such numbers that we must make thou sands more of them to insure prompt delivery. Every experience and suggestion of the world's largest 6-cylinder own- ( ership is incorporated in the 64 im provements of the Greater Hudson. I As co-authors of these creations the 1,000,000 Super-Six owners arena- | turally first to want to see, inspect and drive them. It is particularly interesting to observe their special satisfaction in the numerous body . improvements. In comment, these important developments in body designand appointment, fully equal the more dramatic qualities of the more than 80-milc-an-hour per formance. They definitely set Hudson apart from like-priced cars, just as Hud son performance stands alone among all cars. Come, see and drive the Greater Hudson. We believe one ride will make it 'the car of your choice. to OJ, Hear the Radio program of til \ "ijf- "NWM-fjKr Cha/Jeagtri" ?31 X ***?> AH/?f AT I Wig 3 -A .? * * yk Hear tit Radio program of tie ?1095 j IkUhi 4 hMk ?mm, *mk mi wwn ? ?lwiili mm mmI oil (mmll on ttrrring wkrrl ? .rit * 1 -t-- rhrt^mimm tJ i and uy at factory Towa li?Tflu il Practice In all Courts W.
