Raleigh, Aug. 14.—Tax collec

$2,-971,000, and if the revenue
department had been able to cast
up today what has come In since
there probably would have been
another |10,000 for each day.
From now until late in the
month sales taxes will pour in
and the department expects at
least 13,500.000 to be gathered
for August. That will be almost
double the collections of August
a year ago and the surplus will
go piling up. All the signs sup
port the belief that the state is
going to run heavily into the
black. .

Whshington, Aug. 14.—Presi
dent Roosevelt today signed into
law a social security program he
said would, “provide for the
United States an economic struc
ture of vastly greater sound
ness.”
“This social security measure,’’
Mr. Roosevelt added, "gives at
least some protection to 30,000,-
000 of our citizens who will reap
direct benefits through unem
ployment compensation, through
old-age pensions and through in
creased services for the protec
tion of cbiWron and the preven
tion of ill health.’’ ■ *■
The President spoke into sound
cameras crowding the White
House cabinet rooin after his
pen welded to the statute books
the security program molded in
studies begun more than a year
ago. It was seven months going
through tne house and senate.
The law sets up systems of
old-age pensions and unemploy
ment insurance, and special care
for dependent children and mo
thers. anf. contains a hu^e tax
program to raise the necessary
funds.

Cork U«m1 In Modona
Roof Koop Monaoe Warm
In Winter, Cool Summer
African explorers protect
themselves from the merciless
tropic snn by wearing helmets
lined with Cork. An inanlating
lining of cork is also used to
preserve food supplies as they
are transported crosp-country in
refrigerator cars. Your own Ice
box at home is probably cork-
protected against the heat of
your kKchen. Have you ever won
dered why? Simply because heat
will go through cork about as
rapidly a s you could walk
through a brick wall!
Now you can put a root on
your home that combines the in
sulating value of cork with the
weather protection of slate. A
leading manu(acturer of roofing
materials has perfected a cork-
insulated shingle that has an
outer surface of durable slate
and an under surface of cork;
and between the two—welding
them together, is a layer of
tough, heavy, asphalt-impregnat
ed felt.
These cork insulated shingles
are fire retardent and weather
proof. They are offered in col
ors to meet the most exacting
requirement. It is said that a
cork insulated shingle roof will
keep a ho Use warmer in winter
because it keeps the beat in;
and cooler in summer, because it
keeps the heat out.
