There lias boon a good deal of I discussion in regard to some j a uenduienls to the state consti Vition, by the legislature since it assembled and a joint legisla tive committee is likely to be appointed to take the matter under advisement after the ad journment of the legislature. The resolution provides for a committee of eighteen and also for an extra session of the leg islature. Tins measure is to lake the place of a constitution al convention and is as follows: "The joint legislative com mittee on constitutional amend lnents voted unanimously to au thorize the speaker of the Iiounc to appoint eight members, the president of t iie senate tive nieni- If Caldwell county will organ ize next Monday a wide-wake en ergetic Good Roads Association that will get right down to work and work for better roads like they thought it was worth some thing to the county, the old county can be pulled out of the mud before another winter. An Association of the right kind can carry a bond issue of $200, 000 and that amount of money exivnded intelligently on the less than 2vX miles of roads in ! i the county will make them good j and at the same time be a great j help to all kinds of business throughout the county.

The motion to do this was made by Senator (J rant, of Davie. The house chairman is Mr. Jus tice, of (iuilford, and the senate chairman is Mr. I vie, of Rock ingham." We want to see the "Trust Busters" turn their guns on the Insurance Trust, known as the Southeastern Tariff Association. Of the lff tire insurance compa nies doing business in this state, 1)8 of them operate under the Association ratings and the oth ers get the benefits of its ratings. Everybody knows who will think a little that insurance companies make big money, the fine build ings in the cities and the im mense holdings of bonds, stocks they possess, show conclusively that big money is made in the insurance business. A probe might at least let the people who pay the premiums know if they are getting their insurance as low as the. companies can afford to write it, or as high as the in sured can be made to pay. Co operative insurance companies have done much for some com munities and they should grow and multiply if the rates of in surance can not he gotten down to a reasonable point.

One way to stop this drain, is to make better roads, schools and improve conditions generally.
