This census is expected. to give a complete list of all those totally unemployed, partially employed and those on the W P A, N Y A, C C C, or other emergency Work, in the United States. On Tuesday morning all City and Rural Carriers and Clerks at the Post Office at Louisburg, Franklinton and Youngsville will distribute unemployment report cards, so far as it is possible for them to do so, to every family or patron of their ofTice. These cards are to be filled in by the persons receiving them and returned to the post! office. If for any reason any person coming within the classes mentioned above fails- to get a card on Tuesday or Wednes day they should see the Carrier or call at the post office aild get one, and if anyone does not know how to fill them out they should see one of these postal officials who will gladly assist them. It is very important that you give immediate attention to this matter as it is imperative that this census be completed before the 20th. Therefore the postal authorities are appealing to the public for cooperation to the end that a complete census be made of Franklin County unemploy ables. This does not mean a job, although it may lead to that end, for anyone, but it does mean that' it will give the government the necessary figures upon which to base its relief activities in the future. Most all the other figures are estimated, these should be as nearly accurate as it is possible to get. Remember that if you get a card Tuesday or Wednesday, and are in either of the classes above you should fill in each and every blank on the card and return it at once. If you^are not In either of these classes return the card anyway. If you don't get a card call for it and fill it,.out. If you can't fill it out get a postal Clerk or Carrier to fill it out for you. Bear in mind every blank on every card must be filled in. Employers Warned Of Labor Law Maj. A. L. Fletcher, State Labor Commissioner, said Wednesday his department will try to makej the public conscious, through pro per follow-up of the law, that parents may not work their own minor children in places where such minors are prohibited from employment.

AN APPEAL The Mayor Asks For Cooperation In Cleaning Streets and lie moving Garbiifte and Trash The Town of LouUburg is anx ious to cooperate tnily in remov ing garbage and trash from the premises of our property owners, and from the streets. However, we can iioL_Iiaul large accumula tions of trash, such as limbs, trees, and debris, which arc not ordinary accumulations. ?The ex pense of hauling such, accumula tions will 'have to be borne by the person making such unusual ac cumulations. We wish to ask our citizens not to pile trash in t>lie streets, but to pile it between the sidewalk and the curb. The piling of trash iu the streets may cause a disastrous automobile wreck. Again we re quest our citizens to stop burning leaves on ou'r streets. The heat melts and ruins the asphalt street surface, thereby causing unneces sary repair expenses. We are re moving the leaves as fast as we can tlo sq. Thanking you to cooperate with us iu preventing accidents, and in preserving our public streets. I ' yours, W. C. WEBB, Mayor.

Thal> business expansion has been definitely impeded by the Government's tax policies has long been contended by business leaders, recently with renewed emphasis. Now the truth of that contention is being admiMed by Administration officials, and the Treasury is reported as favoring such tax changes as will encourage capital to seek investment in new business ventures or tiie enlarge ment of existing enterprises. Iftrw far that may result in new laws at this session is anybody's guess, but there is evidence of a decided (change of tlte" Administration's at jtitude 'toward business. In the' worry over the possibility of a umajor business depression and its inevitable bad effect upon the poli tical fortunes of the party in pow er. high officials seem inclined to let up in tlie effort to punish busi ness as a whole for the sius, real or imaginary, of some business men iA the past. Some Kra>ons For Slump Failure of the expected build ing boom to materialize is regard ed here as one reason why the business situation has not improv ed as had been hoped. The reduc ied earnings Of the railroads, due to wage increases and rising cost's | of materials, liaVe curtailed their buying ability for new motive power and rolling stocky and so resulted in slackening output and reducing employment in mills and factories. The Interstate Com merce Commission " has granted rate increases to many of the rail roads, but not enough to satisfy their needs as they see them. The belief here is that the application of the Class I railroads for a gen eral 10 percent' increase in freight rates will be granted. Hall Growth of Opposition Party politics is a more lively topic of discussion here than for | many months past', with the ap parent beginning of the rejuvena tion of the Republican Party. The real leaders of Democratic thought would welcome a stronger Oppo sition than has been effective in the past few years. The movement) for a Republican conference early In 1938, at which all elements of the party would be represented, and where a concrete, clear-cut de finition of party policies may be formulated, is looked upon here as a constructive first stiep. Be cause the proposal In its beginning had the indorsement of fortner President Herbert ? Hnnvep, tf it. did not originate with him. It was looked upon with suspicion by many Republican poliMoians. { who feared that it was a bid for 'he. nomination of Mr. Hoover for 'the Presidency in 1940. His Boston 'speech, in .wUie'.. he dsftatteiy dis claimed any such desire or ambi tion, is regarded here as having cleared the atmosphere and paved the way for a general reorganisa tion of the party.
