(h.vernor McLeatf to the genera) ar

she night of Jan. o. Tie message
ftdhiws: ,
Mr. ['resident, Mr. Speaker, amt
Members of the Genera) Assembly:
The ( ^institution of Xorlh Garoiina
provides that the Governor sha)!, up
. ], the ton.ening of each session of
the Genera) Assembly, communicate
i,. )i, ;n the mrm m a messcgr,
uomation concerning the affairs of
*- nfe, together with such reconi
n.emlations as, in his judgment, are
!:,"t ssary and expedient. This mandate
of our t'nnstitution has been strictly
nditcred to by my predecessors in of
!;,nd it now affords me a sense
i f pbasrtre entirely without affection
to appear before this honorable body
of nbic and patriotic representatives
f)i sh from the people of North Caro
lina. Also, I feel a deep sense of oh
legation.
With the convening of this General
Assembly, one-half of my term as
Governor has expired. ! come to give
an account of my stewardship to give
t ad. through you, to the real and
only sovereigns in a free state—the
aeoplc themselves. To them 1. as the
i fuel' executive officer of North Caro
lina, am directly responsible, even as
you, constituting another coordinate
branch of our government, are also re
sponsible. Together, we owe them a
dhuble responsiblity. I as their chosen
spokesman, elected to recommend for
yotfr consideration what I conceive to
he best for them, and you as the body
that enacts these recommendations
into laws and statutes for their gov
ernance or that rejects them, as the
case may bc\ *My' powers are only
recommendatory. Coercion is not one
of the prerogatives of the Covernor
of North Carolina, nor would thavc
it such
So, in the midst of my term of of
fice, having faithfully endeavored to
put into impartial and unselfish prac
tice the policies enacted into law by
your predecessors, two years ago, 1
come to give an account of what has
been done and t^ make recommenda
tions for the f^ure. I ask you to pass
judgment on behalf of the people that
elected us and be governed in your
deliberations by the verdict you shall
naeh when yoa shall have weighed
the results I shall endeavor to place
lefme you on this occasion.
In the performance of the tasks
faith has at no time becndinimed.
r There have bet'r^hf^tdicaps, of course,
thaj, have been imposed upon me, my
but these hate only served to
rttengthen my determination to do
the host 1 could fur our people who,
v hen they elected me, elected your
predecessors to receive whatever rec
ommendations 1 should make. Practi
. ally all of the measures I asked for
during the session of the General As
sembly ofGM25 had been discussed by
am in my campaign. Of course, emer
gencies that arose during the session
prompted some recommendations that
did not directly constitute a part of
my platform when seeking office. Yet,
these fitted in, as I saw it, with the
general polities 1 had advocated.
1 have striven to hold fast to the
vision—of a still greater State, peo
ple') by happy and prosperous citi
uns. Spiritual values must never he
minimized. They must always he
brought into coordination with pro
gress and never divorced from it
Idealism without practicability is a
vain thing. But in our practices we
ma t always hold an idea! in view.
It is my earnest prayer that the kind
Providence that has permitted us to
become a great State will deliver us
from selfishness and keep us far from
the path of mercenary materialism.
Gentlemen—and ! take this occasion
to recognize the member of the oppo
site a^x who sits in your, midst—you
are at the threshold of a most im
portant session. The results of your
lie-liberations when finally translated
into action should contribute in large
measure to the advancement, general
vilfare and happiness of the people
of our beloved Commonwealth. I have
faith in you, that you will interpret
into legislation the present needs of
tit - State, as thfy shall come to your
attention; that you will thoughtfully
and tactfully shape such policies for
the next biennium as will mala- for
the genera! we)t-bemg ol fvorth ( aro
ijna.
! shall net at this time attempt to
tiistuss fully the fiscal affairs of the
State, These will be presented to you
later in the session, also some special
matters not discussed in this message.
The General Assembly of 1925 made
a great record of constructive achieve
ment, and I sha^ always feel pro
foundly gratef^M&or the favorable
consideration itTSave to the many
measures I urgeiupon it. Its confi
dence in my sincere determination to
serve the people of North Carolina
heartened me at the outset of my ad
ministration and gave me renewed
courage to face the many responsi
bilities that loomed in my official
pathway My ambition to prove faith
ful to the trust was stimulated.
^ Cmulitions confronting the session
I of ]f)21 were the natural results of a
; change In the economic life an)
' thought of our people. The previotf
;d--.'adc had been marked by unprece
dented progress in all directions. So
: n inventory was necessary. The State
, had gone forward so courageously and
'o well that we found it necessary to
' rttrvcy and recast our administrative
; nmchim ry. in order to properly con
duct the affairs of the State under the
j now conditions in the midst of which
we found ourseives. It became tho
duty of the General Assembly to con
serve, promote, strengthen and length
en the roots of our security and to con
solidate our gains and install new gov
.rnmenta! machinery. Drastic re
trenchment was at no time considered.
Changed methods of doing things,
however, were necessary, due to
changed and fast changmg rondtttons,
i.i ()-&!' that wp might continue to
move steadily forward with safety and
rrmervatism and with a strong de
termination that progress shoutd in
no wise ho abated.
As many of you wiil rcadiiy recall,
in my campaign for Governor, as well
a in mv.mesMtges to the GcntralAs
c-mbly of tR23. ! endeavored to stress
Uto fact that expansion had brought
abrut a correspontling nee<! for radi
cal ^hanges in our methods of admin
istration, urging thut the time had
come to app!y to th<- State's affairs
thou- same business principles and
methods necessary to the success of
..ny Y.eit-ordered enterprise.
At my request, more than thirty
measures looking toward the improve
ment of government administration
were enacted by that Genera! Assem
bly As many of you were a!so mem
bers of the tast Centra! Assembiy and
took an active part in the passage of
these measures and also because I
fee) you are interested in their opera
tion. ! have concluded to summarize
them on this occasion. ! fee! it is due
you atrd, through you, the peop!e of
the State that I shoutd officially give
an account of the resuits that have
been brought about. Considering the
fact that 1 definitely askedfor the
measures, ! feet an added responsi
bility. Had ! not been sincerely eon
vincod of their merit, I should never
have requested their passage,
the Executive Budget System
Pet haps, the most important meas
ure enacted into taw by the General
Assembly of 192o was the act estab
lishing the Executive Budget System.
Under the terms of this act, the Bud
get Bureau iu the Executive Depart
ment became a supervising depart
ment of finance and business adminis
tration, and the Governor was made
the executive director. The Governor
now supervises the business and fin
ancia) affairs of North Carolina in
rpuch the same way that the executive
head of a iarge business enterprise
supervises the various branches of tha^
ousittess. No reform instituted by the
bast General Assembly had a more far.
reaching and at the same time simpli
fying effect. Many intricacies were
eliminated and coordination of ex
penses was brought about. In these
days when expenditures by govern
ment for both current expenses and
permanent improvements have risen
to such a high figure and so rapidly as
tj challenge the best thought of finan
*ial students, the exnerienee of gov
ernments which have adopted tl.e bud
get system stands out convincingly in
favor of this method of handling pub
lic affairs Business enterprises long
ago adopted the system the princi
ples of which are so absolutely essen
tia! that they admit of no argument.
For two centuries the budget system
has prevailed with success in England
and in recent years it has been adopt
ed by our own Federal Government
and many of the States in the Union
The principle involved is as old as civ
ilization itself. Simply stated, it
means that no individual or group can
be permanently prosperous and suc
cessful and, consequently, happy un
less they live up to the sound prin
ciple of keeping expenditures within
their incomes. No head of a family
can avoid confusion and financial em
barrassment whose household expens
es amount to more than he earns. The
same rule applies to a government.
Granting that a government is, in a
measure, an abstract proposition, yet
tin- money it spends is not, for, after
ail, it comes from the pockets of the
people. It is their right to have their
funds protected and insured against
expenditures that, even thouch thev
arc kgitimatc, are not weH-ordered.
Vt'e who administer government are
pnidic servants, and we should be as
arefu] witit the pubiic's funds as we
are with our own when we invest them

The Executive Budget Act became
genet ally effective on July 1, 1925,
and I shall have the opportunity to
present to your honorable body the
first complete budget ever presented tj
the General Assembly of North Caro
linn It shows the operation of thi
Executive Budget System for one
completed year of the ourrent bien
nium, and also a complete budge,
covering all appropriations and reve
nues recommended for consideration
by this Legislature to he made effec
tive for the biennial period beginning
July 1. 1927.
The budget to be presented to you
iepresents the best wort: of the Gov
ernor and all members of the Advisory j
Budget Commission, appointed by him
and acting in an ex officio capacity,
who attended the met ting.. As most
of you, at least, arc aware, the Com
mission is composed of the chairmen
of the finance and appropriations com
mittees of both houses of the General
Assembly, together with two - citi
zens appointed by the Governor to
represent the tax payers. Thus, the
people themselves are taken into
counsel by the Governor, who is the
executive head of the Commission,
and by the General Assembly.
It is with great satisfaction that I
am able to report to you at this time
that the-Executive Budget System is
working with a remarkable degree of
success. It has had much to do with
the marked improvements that have
been brought about in handling the
State's financial affairs, with the re
sult that large sums of money have
been saved the tax payers. Prof, of
this statement will be contained in my !
budget message. It is my firm con-!
vietion that this system represents
the most constructive piece of legis
lation enacted by the last General As*
scmbly.
As a part of the Executive Budget j
System the General Assembly declar
ed it to be a fixed policy that puTrent j
expenses at no time exceed the total!
revenues available within the same
period and that the State maintain at j
ail times a balanced budget- In furth
erance of this policy, all statutes al
lowing appropriations general and un
limited in character were repealed;
and every department, institution and
other spending agent of the State was
placed upon a definite appropriation
basis. This brought about a coordina
tion of expenditures which hitherto
was unknown in North Carolina. In
brief, wc have safeguarded the funda
mental principle of the balanced bud
get by providing there mpst he no
appropriation without a correspond
ing provision for the revenue to meet

Help Wash Out
Kidney Poison
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You, Begin
Taking Saits
When your kidneys hurt and your
back feeis sore don't net scared and pro
ceed to ioad your stomach with a !ot of
drugs that excite the kidneys and irri
tate the entire urinary tract. Keep
your kidneys clean iike you keep your
bowels cican, by (lushing them with a
miid, harmtess saits which helps to re
move the body's urinous waste and stim
ulates them to their normal activity.
The function of the kidneys is to filter
the blood. In 24 hours they strain front
it 50t) grains of acid and wast6, so we
can readily understand the vital impor
tance of keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of good water—yon can't
drink too much; also get front any phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoouful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a
few days and your kidneys may then

front the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to help clean and stimu

relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in

should take now and then to help "keep

and no doubt you will wonder what

! cian examine your kidueys at least twice

ritwh'f.'.
!^et us now consumer brtefiy other
acts suppiementing and making mo!*r
effective the Executive Budget Act.
t mention first the act which requires
that a!) coHectinpr agencies shaM de
posit their funds daiiy with the Stat!
Treasurer. This has resutted in sav
ing considcrahic money to the State
by increasing the amount of interest
received by the Trqpsurer on daiiy de
poattH and uecreasmg me
uttort time borrowing in anticipation
r f the collection of taxes. Another act
that has greatly aided in making th;
Executive Budget Act effective is that j
which consolidated the principal reve
nu<j collecting agencies, including tin
motor vehicle bureau, under the De-;
pnrtment of Revenue. This was a wise
piece of legislation, in that it result- j
ed in bringing about coordination an i
a more effective supervision of al! <
money-collecting agencies. I refer at- j
so to the act iapsing ail appropria
tions for maintenance to the various
departments, institutions and spend
ing agencies which remain unexpend- j
etl at the end of the fiscal period This
is not only a wise reform but has re j
suited in saving the tax payers much I
money, in that it has discouraged un-!
necessary expenditures.
One of the soundest policies now in
effect is that which bans the issuance j
of State bonds except for useful and
permanent improvements and which
provides for the payment of interest
and amortising the principal within
the life of the improvement for which
the bonds arc issued. The Constitution
now provides for a limited bonded in
debtedness and for sinking funds for
the payment of bonds at maturity.
These sinking funds must he safety
and wiseiy invested, thus insuring
protection against their violation. To
make these Constitutionai provision ;!
effective, the Cenerai Assembly Es
tablished a Sinking Fund Commission, <
which is composed of the Governor,
the State Treasurer and the State Au-;
ditor, who are required under tic
severest penaities to invest ail sink
ing funds. This directiy protects tin j
State's credit which might be serious
ly injured if the sinking funds were i
not wiseiy and safeiy invested.
Salary and Wage Commission
One of the most valuable achieve {
ments of the iast Ccnerai Asr.cmid/;
was the creation of what i.. know ' i
as the Salary and Wage Commission, i
While this Commission affects direct ^
Iy oniy the persons in the employ of i
the State, yet it affords these men!
and women protection and, at the same
time, prevents wa$te in the payment ;
of extravagant and irregular salaries.
This legislation resuited in a system
of personnel classification of State
employees subordinate to the heads
of departments and fixed for them
regular hours of work,
holidays, vacation . periods and
sick ieavc. While there was
aroused considerable opposition to this
legislation in the city of Raleigh, i
which-made the Commission's task a
tedious and delicate one, yet this an
tagonism has largciy subsided now
that the State employees and their
friends have come to realize the wis-!
dom and justice of the measure- The
act creating the Commission was no^ j
intended as a blow at the" State em
ployees. On the contrary, it was evi
dent that the time was dt hand to
protect those who were not receiving
compensation commensurate with tha^
received by others performing like
services in other departments by mak-!
ing a general survey of salaries ani ]
establishing an equitable basis. In
stances \vcre found where abnormal
salaries were being paid to some
while others doing work of a like
character were receiving much smalier!
sums. Unreasonably high salaries h#ve
been reduced and those unduly low
have been raised to a higher level.
The Commission, composed of men of
character, business integrity and wide
experience, has, I believe, performed
a real service for the State Empioyecs
ant! for the State as a whole. The
scale adopted is, I think, a dignified
scple that compares well with that
adopted by business firms that strive
to pay just wages, it Has Men satu
that it is higher than the scale in
many of the other States and com
pares very favorably with that allow
ed by the Federal Government. Ccr
tainly the hours of work are pleasant,
allowing employees ample time to
carry on their personal pursuits out
side of business hours.
Desiring to obtain the services of
the best men possible, I appointed a
members of the Salary and Wage
Commission men who are typical rep
resentatives of the principal groups
that pay the major portion of the
State's taxes. I take this occasion to
publicly commend them as well as the
Executive ^Secretary of the Commis
sioh Each has performed a distinct
service. This reform Involves matters
of growth and development which will
extend over a period of Beveral years.
Hence, I recommend to your honorable
body a continuation of the work of
the Commission.
Pardons and Paroles.
One of the most constructive and
beneficial measures adopted by the
!§st General Assembly was the act
creating the office of Commissioner
of Pardons in the Executive Depart
ment. Work imposed upon the Gov
ernor as the result of the Constitu
tional provision giving him power to
exercise clemency had become well
nigh unbearable. !n the early days
of our Statehood this did not entait
so much labor; but with the increase
in population and the consequent in
crease in prison sentences, the Gov
ernor's duties incident to the consid
eration of applications for clemency
were multiplied many times. The chief
executive was often prevented from
g!vfng Hie 'othdr affairs of State ihi'
consideration he could otherwise have
given. A remedy was necessary. At
my request, when i foresaw even mor?
duties devolving upon the Governor
with the adoption of the program of
governmental reforms in prospect, the
General Assembly two years ago mad?
statutory provision for a Commis-*
sioner of Pardons to assist the Gov
ernor in the investigation of clemency
petitions The act took from the Gov
ernor none of his obligations in this
matter imposed by the Constitution,
but followed the Constitution which
provides that the method of hearin ?
cicnicncy eases and granting clemency
wnen sucn appears rtgnt anu proper
shall be prescribed by legislative
enactment. The appointment was mad$.
on April 1, 1925, shortly after th -
adjournment of the lasf session, and
the new measure has functioned in a
satisfactory manner, due largely t)
the fact that 1 was able to secure a
Commissioner a man eminently fit
ted for this work, in character, train
ing and temperament. The most bene
ficent phase of this reform has been
that in connection iyith the supervis
ion of paroied prisoners. In most
crimes of lesser grade tjtan capita)
offenses, the judges impose indeter
minatc sentences, that is, sentences j
of maximum and minimum duration,:
the expiration of which depends upon '
the conduct of the prisoner himself.
The presiding judge says, in effect
"You wili stay in prison at least the
minnmum of your term and whether:
you remain longer depends entirely j
upon you; whether you change your;
attitude toward society and determine, j
when. Iterated, to pick up the broken
threads of your life and weave them
into good citizenship."
Use of the parole is the only prac- ^
tical expedient in those "cases where ,
prisoners have been sufficiently pun
ished and where longer service would
not benefit them but prove burden
some to the State, or county. In such ;
cases it is far better to parole the
prisoner and keep him under strict
supethdsion.
Putting these principles into effect,
1 have been able, with the assistance
of the Commissioner of Pardons, ti
observe and report to your honorable
hodo most beneficial results from the I
paroles granted by me.
Most cases have been confined to;
offenses not of a serious nature. Un-!
dcr the strict system- of supervising j
paroled prisoners, I have had to re
voke oniy about twenty-five It woui i
be difficult here to enumerate all the
benefits that have resulted from this j
reform.
Capita! Issues (Illue Sky) Law
Among the measures sponsored by
me and enacted into law in 192fi was
the new Capital Issues Law. popularly
known as the "Blue Sky Law". This
has served to check many wild financ
ing schemes. It has put out of th?
running those unscrupulous men who
promote "fly by night" enterprises
and whose only hope is "to get away
with it." Our law is one of the most
stringent in America. Some amend
ments, however, are necessary, includ
ing one reducing the tax upon the leg
itimate sales of securities, subject to
registration under the Act. There
should aiso be an amendment provid
ing for the registration of certain se
curities of foreign corporations whose j
standing is as good as that of domes- j
tic corporations eligible for registra j
tion. This provision will make it pos
sible for dealers in this State to parti- !
cipate in national issues, provide the
investing public in North Carolina a!
wider range of securities and, at the
same time, remove the present handi
cap under which dcaicrs in this State!
are working. The purpose of this iaw
was to prevent frauds it! connection
with the saic of securities only. A
law designed to prevent frauds in i
real estate transactions will probably,
have to be enacted. Under the term:; {
of the Capital Issues I,aw, I appoint- i
cd Mr. Allen .1. Maxwell, who called!
to his assistance Mr. I. M. Bailey, aC
Assistant Commissioner. Tito iaw pro-!
vides that the Commissioner shaii h:i
one of the members of the State Cor
poration Commission. This provision
was for purpose of coordination and
to enable the utilization of a depart
ment already existing rather than the'
creation of new departments.
Mr. Maxwell and Mr Bailey have
rendered the State and its people
valuable service, through the able
manner in which they have executed
their duties in this connection, sav
ing to investors hundreds of thou
sands of dollars during the nest two
years. There is urgent need for a
Federal capital issues law and 1 un
derstand a bill providing for its cs
tablishment is now pending in Con
gress. ,
Public Health.
North Carolina's progress in puMic
heaith wotk is one of the State's out
standing achievements, due largely to
*be efficient manner in which orr
heaith officials have performed the
tasks committed to them. The work of
the State Board of Health has in
creased to a remarkable degree. In
my opinion there is no more profitable
j investment than that which looks to
I ward the prevention and cure of
, diseases. Protection of health is not
I oniy a humane thing but a wise poiicy
from a practical standpoint. A healthy
people is a valuable asset. Therefore,
