The simultaneous fall of govels in the hands of the Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate shortly ?-fter noon on March 10 brought to a close one of the shortest but one of the most important sessions in re cent years. Duly enrolled and ratified were bills providing for record-breaking appropriations,, a State-supported nine months school term, a new set-up for the State Board of Education, innova tions in State, county and munici pal finance in authorizations for the establishment of capital re serves, and the grunting of broad and unprecedented powers to the Governor, to be exercised in em ergencies. Of significance also were the types of bills that were lost, strayed or other wise found want ing at the finish. The alcoholic beverage situation, after a great deal of discussion and in spite of a great flurry of bills, was left practiically unchanged, except for the provisions of HB 180 which tirohiblts the sale of wine and beer between 11:30 P. M. and 7:00 A. M., consumption on the premises between midnight and 7:00 A. M? and authorizes coun ties and towns to prohibit Sunday sales. HB 291, the liquor referen lum bill, died in the House Com mittee on Propositions and Griev ances. A similar fate was met by HB 623, which would have au FLYING HEROES ON LEAVE^-Major William James Daley, left " and Lieutenant Edwin Dale Taylor are shown at national headquarter* of the American Red Ci'osa looking over a prisoners of war package 1 to be sent abroad.

SB 97, which would have authorized the establishment of ABC stores in cities having a population of 15, 000 or more, in dry counties, up-! on a vote of the people of such cities, got through the Senate but was reported unfavorably by the House Committee. On the other hand, HB 144. which would have created a Wine Control Division inthe Department of Revenue, would have permitted the sale of 20% wine in dry counties and would have provided regulations with respect to adulteration, labelling, times and places of sale etc., struggled through a hard fight in the House and reached the Senate only to lie upon the; table. Among other bills that were reported unfavorably or tabled! during the closing days of the session were: HB 212, which! would have made provision for full benefits of the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement Sys tem for county extension agents; HB 585, which would have re quired the issuance of marriage licenses in duplicate, so that the contracting parties could be giv en a copy; HB 617 and HB 618,: which would have increased the fees for fishing and hunting licenses, the Increases to be used for re-stocking and game protec-, tion; HB 630, which woultf have provided for submission to po pular vote of a Constitutional amendment to allow prosecutions in criminal cases upon informa tion instead of upon indictment by grand juries as at present; HB' 66!f, which would have pro-! hibited the cutting of timber without leaving some seedlings or; making other reasonable provi-' sions for re-growth, unless the! land were being cleared for other purposes; HB 726, which would have lowered the age of testa-! mentary capacity to 18. with the chief aim of enabling young mem-j bers of the armed forces to make wills; and HB 857, which would have placed restrictions upon lo cal school supplements in view of the ninth month to be paid for by the State. Placed in final form and rati fied during the past ten days were bills ranging from the one mak- 1 ing the largest appropriations in the history of the State, to the one naming a State bird. In ex cess of 160 millions of dollars are appropriated for the coming biennium. and the Cardinal is the bird. The three House bills designed to ease the financial pains of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad and to enable it to repair and replace its equip ment, rolling stock, roadbed and other facilities, were also rati fied. Among other bills that have now passed and become a part of the law of the land are: SB 28. which gives auto owners an ex tra month in which to renew their registration; SB 29, which pro vides for the reorganization of the State Board of Education in accordance with the Constitution al amendment; SB 26 and SB 132 authorizing the establishment of county and municipal capital re serve funds; SB 154, the Em ergency War Powers Act, confer ring upon the Governor extensive powers, to be exercised with ap proval of the Council of State, to deal with emergencies that might arise before the convening of the next General Assembly; SB 333, which prohibits, the sale of auto radiator anti-freeze solu tions compounded with inorganic salts or petroleuf distillates; HB 62, which increases the annual salaries of the Commissioners of Labor and Agriculture to $6,600; HB 217, providing for the est ablishment of a training school for delinquent Negro girls; HB 292. authorizing municipalities to issue rules and regulations with respect to taxi-cabs and to re quire permits; HB 308? provid ing for the quarantine of hogs infected #ith, or newly-vaccinat ed for, cholera; HB 246, pro hibiting detective agencies froml 'Ob Darling its Lovely" . . . <3 K?

ROOF Now is the Time to Reroof Your Home. ? SEE US - SOUTHERN ROOFING & SIDING COMPANY Nash St. Louisburg, N. C. Seed Money ~ ? Thert% imty one thing more foolish than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. That's living up the money that has been put away to buy the seed for next year's crops. Although G-E turbines aijd lamps and refrigerators don't grow from any seed you can buy at a seed store, yet any manu facturer? no matter what he makes -has a seed problem just the same. For next year's models, and improved designs, and new products? all these cost money. Money for research, and engineering, and new tools, and advertising to tell the public where a product can be obtained, and how much it will cost. And the only place this money can come from is out of past earnings, or borrowing on the promiseof earnings in the future. In other words? from seed money. From the seed of research and engineering, planted in years past by General Electric, have come some pretty amazing crops. Incandescent lamps five times as efficient as Edison's, vacuum tubes that made radiobroadcasting possible, refriger ators for the home and electric machines for industry to make important jobs easier. Right now the crops we're growing are all of the "Victory Garden" kind-weapons that are serving with our armed forces on land and sea and in the air. But we mustn't neglect the seed money for the future. We're looking forward to the continuance of the industrial system that will allow us to open up and cultivate other new and prom ising fields. So, tomorrow, look for important developments in television, fluorescent lighting, plastics, electronics. These will be familiar words in the post-war world. General Electric Company, Schenectady, N.
