I USE THE COURIER WANT AOS Mr. Hoey Presents The Official Figures Of State Finance Shows That Corporations Pay Almost $13,000,000 Yearly To State Adds Two And Two Reviews Progress Of Schools And Educational System In North Carolina — Raleigh, May 4. — Carrying his campaign for the Demo cratic nomination for governor into Western North Carolina, where for more than 30 years he has waged his party’s battles against the Re publicans, Clyde R. Hoey warned Democrats against “the enemy within our ranks.” “We have a strange situation to day,” said Mr. Hoey. “We have a man who is seeking the Democratic nomination for the high office of Governor on a platform of attacking the record of the party. “Ralph McDonald charges that the Democratic party is machine controll ed and is dominated by corporations and wealth. He says that Democratic administrations have crippled the schools and betrayed the people. “I submit that if these charges are true, then the Democratic party is not fit to govern North Carolina and' should be thrown out of power. But if these charges are not true, then I submit that the man who makes them it not fit to receive the Democratic nomination for governor.” Answering the charges one by one, Mr. Hoey presented official figures showing that corporations pay almost 313,000,000 a year into the state treasury in franchise and corporation income taxes. The North Carolina corporation franchise tax is exceeded by the rate in only four states in the union, he said, while the North Caro lina corporation straight 6 per cent income tax is the second largest in the country. When the two are added together, he said, the corporations in North Carolina pay more taxes to the state than do corporations in any other state. .... “And in addition to that,’ said Mr. Hoey, “they pay every cent of pro perty tax that is paid by any in dividuals. “Maybe we should tax some cor porations more,” said Mr. Hoey. “That will be a matter for the next legislature to decide. And also, it may be that we can find new sources of taxation. But the man who says that the Democratic party of North Caro lina has taxed corporations Ie3s than they would be taxed in other states is not telling the truth.” Mr. Hoey reviewed the progress of education in this state, pointing out that North Carolina is the only state in the union which operates its schools and maintains its road3 without re sorting to a tax on land. “I agree that we should pay our teachers more, that we should provide more money for the schools,” he said, “but I want to remind you that if the state had not taken over the schools when it did, in many counties the school doors would have been closed and teachers would not have been paid anything at all. “Now that conditions have improv ed, we should put more money into education and provide free text books for the school children. This I am in favor of doing at once.” Collided With Truck George Robbins of Asheboro figured in a wreck Saturday night when the roadster he was driving collided with a cabbage truck driven by a man from Winston-Salem. The accident occurred two miles out from Seagrove. Both vehicles were damaged, but no one was hurt. The British film “King of the Damned.” has been banned by France.

Driver, Russell Sun Jo. Their present record—3900 lbs. tractive pull, which is equivalent Co pulling 9 plows cutting furrows Id inches wide and 6 inches deep. WHAT A RECORD! Never have these mighty champions been beaten. They’ve out-pulled every team they’ve ever met. These magnificent Belgians are Nature at her best. They arc animals to which Nature has given the vital spark—that necessary, natural balance of all the elements of which champions arc made. Natural balance is everything! It’s the difference between this team of powerful champions and common, ordinary plugs. It’s the difference between the best and the rest in almost everything. And here’s another example of Nature at her best—Natural Chilean Nitrate. This nitrogen fertilizer is favored by Nature with the champion’s vital spark—the natural balance of the elements that make a champion. Into Chilean Nitrate Nature blended the vital impurides—the combination of many major and minor ele ments over and beyond nitrogen. Through countless centuries. Nature has aged and matured this nitrogen fertilizer in the ground, that you may return It to your ground as the safe, sure, balanced food for your crops. Natural Chilean contains almost two score of major - and minor elements such at boron, magnesium, man ganese, iodine, calcium, potassium, etc—each a vital . iy element in growth and healthy development of plants. / * y' ktufrul Deaths 1 ___________________ 1 Robert F.
