BOARD OP COUNTY COMMIS SIONERS OF WILKES COUNTY, NORTH CAROUNA, By Di B. Chrartkkea, Chairman: N. C. Revenue Climbing Raleigh.—The state ot North Carolina goes Into the new year with its tax collections boasting a 12 per cent Increase for a six- month period ending December 31 over the corresponding period for 1934. The department of revenue an nounced that collections totaled $25,759,666, a gain of $2,789,- 250. Collections under the 3 per cent sales tax levy and the gaso line lu* increased over two mil lion dollars and one and a half million dollars, respectively, over the half-year totals a year ago. The sales tax Increase was due probably to the fact that nine basic commodity exemptions were effective after the General As sembly of 1935 adjourned. Collections were 11 per cent below December 1934 In auto mobile license plate taxes due to a 27 per cent decrease In fees, while payments under motor ve hicle divison levies were down 21 per cent. December collections totaled $4,096,584. Rescue Snowbound Idaho Falls, Idaho, Jan. 7.— Rescue of snow-trapped coal miners and their families, ma rooned on an Isolated Wyoming ranch by the section’s worst snow storm in 80 years, was believed near tonight. A tractor-powered snow plow, manned by CCC work ers, nosed its way through pon derous snow drifts over the last few miles that separated the miners from rsscnera ... this .nation earns its livlhg- in in dustry. The ditforeht plctupe;'Ok: all-Oie l»eo- •pto who- w6rk Pot pay - in -thto country:- tea million^ are attach^ to-agrichlture.'Another ten mll- Iton are employed’ in public and personal service—teachers, luw- yert, doctors, nurses, public offi cials, entertainers, cooks,wait ers, hired- housekeepers, and so forth. Wholesale and retail trade engages between eight and tem million more-^mong them two million sales clerks and four mil lion in other clerical positions. Four million people earn their living In transportation and coni- munication; “ and another four million In' construction of build ings, streets and highways. 'A million and a half engage in foN estry,: fishing and mining. Theee lines of business are not clasai-^ fled by the government as Indue- try, although with other smaller groups they account for about 40,million of our normal 48 mil lion Jobs.' And no .official has suggeeted that fiese employ the alleged eleven million unemploy ed. (That is left for Industry proper, which at its highest peak, in Its busiest time, never employ ed (in round numbers) more than 8,800,000 persons — the highest Industrial employment in our history. These figures for in dustry are given In Table No. 737 of the Statistical Abstract of the United States published in 1934 under authority of the Secretary ot Commerce. In this report In dustry is comprised under the 16 main branches of production which supply the nation’s basic commodity requirements, rang ing from food and wood and tex tile products, to the Iron, steel and transportation equipment -in dustries, Including the automo bile. Having at no time employed as many as 9,000,000 persons, these 16 branches are asked to employ Immediately an addition al 11,000,000 persons,, '.‘or else.” Two things are clear: first, that any group which normally employs less than nine million persons, of whom probably seven million' are new at work, cannot possibly i)o said to have eleven million of its people out of work. It never had that, many people. .A.nd second, any group whose highest peak of business was nev er sufficient to employ more than nine million persons cannot, even at government command, arbi trarily Increase that number to 20,000,000. There never has been that much purely industrial work to be done. '■ This misconception ot the com- partlve place of industry in the national " fabric , tfas lasted a lohg time—like the mlschiev’ous state ment that the>'rich two per cent of the people own between 80 and 96 per cent of tho wealth, when as a matter of fact 72 per ce.nt of the -wealth and 88 per cent of the income are owned by people who have less than $5,000 a yeaf;. It is true that. induatrT to Import ant and that It affects all cither lines of work, just as all other lines of work aflect it, but four- fifths' of American workers al ways have been employed at something else. The nation could hardly exist otherwise. Industry earns its living by making the tools and utensils which the rest of the people use in earning their living—shovels for diggers; plows and trucks and cream separators for fann ers: ovens for bakers; hammers and saws and nails and lumber for carpenters; leather for shoe makers; motor cars and electric cars and railway cars and loco motives for transportation; ma chines for all sorts of mechanical work; cloth and sewing machines tor clothiers; paper and Ink and presses for printers, and so on. Industry has never supported all the workers and never can—It can only equip workers with the things they use to support them selves In the infinitely diversi fied forms of dally work. Industry alone has led in ef forts to start the wheels of em ployment turning. In one year it has spent above Us income more than the enormous emergency expenditures of the government itself. Its efforts have succeeded to a remarkable degree. This morning’s newspaper carries a "Washington complaint that em ployment to not increasing as fast as production. Here to -the same old error again—measuring the entire employment sitnation a- galnst one-slzth. ot the* nation’s work. Industrial emptorment hat kept.pac^ with prodnetioa.
