C. JUSTICE DEPT. LEGISLATIVE AIM IN STATE Attorney General Now Has Small Powers to Initiate Local Actions—Banking, Prohibition Would be in Purview. Raleigh, Dec. 16.—Enlargment of the powers of the attorney general to the extent that his office may become in a measure a state depart ment of justice, with authority to make investigation and initiate pros ecution without having to wait upon local officers to begin such action, as is now the case, will be recom mended in the report of the survey of the state government made by the Brookings Institute and which will probably be made public by the latter part of this week. It is also believed likely that this recommendation will be passed along to the 1931 general assem bly by Governor O. Max Gardner. S At the present time, the attor j ney general has no power to make investigations or institute ; court actions except in connection , with the violation or apparent 'violation of the state's anti-trust laws. Regardless of the extent .of violation of any other of the state's laws, the attorney general j has no power to take any action but must wait entirely upon lo cal officers to institute action. ■ As a result of the cumulation of events during the past two years, especially within the past !few months, the belief is becom ing general that the attorney gen eral should be given power and ! authority to institute action along i general Unes, with general au thority to institute action along !any other lines whenever it might become necessary. The three gen eral classifications of law viola tions in which the attorney gen eral would be given power to in stitute action are: Violations of the laws govern ing the handling of state, county ,or city funds, on the part either ( of banks or individuals. ) Violations of the state corrupt practices act with regard to cam paign expenses and the listing of these expenses with the secretary .of state. Violations of the prohibition laws in localities where the local officials may no#" seem to be functioning. The necessary for giving some state agency the power to see that the various county and city fiscal control acts are properly j observed and to give this or some i state agency to prosecute in case of their violation, has been re-! ceiving increasing consideration as a result of the number of in i stances in which cities and coun | ties have been having financial ; troubles lately. Many counties ! are having to levy higer and : higher tax rates because of the failure of the county commission- I ers to require the sheriff to make i proper settlement for his tax col ! lections according to the law, or ; because of the commissioners' j failure to require the adequate 1 bonding of the various county I officials. In a number of cases, ! city and county officers have de j posited money in banks without j the amount and type of bond re ! quired by law, with the result that a number of these banks i have failed and thousands- —in ; some cases millions—of dollars of public money lost. The most ; outstanding example of this state ! of affairs is to be found in the I recent series of events in Bun -1 combe county where more than | $8,000,000 in city and county l funds were lost in the failure of ! one bank there. I : Use Certified Chicks In Building Flocks ! , The purchaser of baby chick - generally gets just what he pay? for and buying cheap chicks from unknown hatcheries usually results in a failure of the poultry project, i "The backbone of the hatchery • business lies entirely in the flock , supplying the hatchery with eggs." says Roy S. Dearstyne, head of the j State college poultry department. ("There must be a rigid supervision jof these supplies to assure that the j breeding stock, sanitation, and man agement of the supply flock is of the best. Production, type, and con stitutional vigor must be in the breed- ing brids. They must be housed light, fed right, free of disease and should pay a profit to the poultry man and the hatchery before they are finally delivered at the custo mer's door." The promiscuous hatching of any kind of eggs to produce baby chicks for sale is a thing of the past, de clares Mr. Dearstyne. It » is quite expensive to build up a flock of standard hens of high producing pow er and quality. This often involves trap-nesting, measuring the qualities of the individual birds, careful se lection of abilities to produce a marketable egg, and other factors en tering into successful poultry pro duction. Especially is it important that the eggs be free from the germ borne diarrhea disease. Some hatch eries advertise that their chicks are from blood-tested flocks but do not say when nor how. The purchaser says Mr. Dearstyne, know his hatchery and its record and find if it offers something in addition to price alone. The purchasing of quality chicks with production behind them is a money saving investment. When clicks are sold at a very reduced rate, it means that they are hatched from pullet eggs or that the hatch ery is getting little if any profit. Sixteen to eighteen months will probably elapse before there is an upward trend in the price of farm commodities, said Dr. L. H. Bean, of Washington. DALTON BROS., Inc.
