Reports of committees being call ed the committee on constitutional amendments reported favorably the Stubbs resolution for calling a con stitutional convention in May, 1913, provided the people so vote and It was made a special order for Wed nesday. January 25. The Koonce joint resolution for a legislative commission with full court powers to Investigate the con duct of fire insurance companies In North Carolina came from the Judi ciary committee No. 1, with recom- Djendatlon that it go to the commit* tee on propositions and grievances, , of which Its author is chairman. There was a motion that it go to the committee on insarance instead. This brought Koonce to his feet with a rigorous speech in which he took the position that a number of t2i# members of the insurance com mittee are insurance men or in- teiMted one way or another In in surance matters and he feared they woald be unduly Influenced In pass ing on his bill. He said there is al ready a strong lobby at work against his resolution. There came from Representative Woodson, of Cleveland, indignant re sentment at Mr. Koonce’s reference to possible bias on the part of in surance committeemen. He insisted that the resolution should go to a committee that has some actual kjiowledge of Insurance conditions In this state. He impeached the knowl edge of Mr. Koonce as to Insurance matters, declaring after Koonce had replied to questions that he was not an Insurance man but knew something of these matters and that he had license to practice law, that he never knew of a lawyer w’ho had any practical knowledge of insur ance matters. A number of members urged that the committee on Insur ance. yet to be appointed, be given the bill. Others contended that Mr. Koonce’s position was well taken. On an aye and noe vote the bill went to propositions and grievances. There was favorable committee re port on the bill by General Carr amending the charter of Trinity Col lege so that that institution can hold more than two million dollars prop erty, this being to enable the col lege to rebuild the administration building on a scale desired.

Tjaffic Manager Is Needed Jor City Prominent Business Man Jnlks of The Advantages That Would Accrue to The City With a Traffle Manager. In regard to the need of a traflfic manager for the city, suggested by Mr. W. T. Corwith, of the Greater Charlotte Club, a number of citizens heard to express their views on the subject, are In favor of it. Every manufacturer and shipper of goods in large quantities should be interested In the movement. A gentleman who has given the matter a great deal of thought and study gave The News this morning a number of substantial reasons as to the advantages that would accrue to the business interests of the city: “A successful traffic manager must of necessity by a man having prac tical experience with, and technical knowledge of the Intimate relation of transportation charges to com merce, and who will devote his en tire time and thought to Investigation and solution of traffic problems for the the benefit of those manufactur ers requiring his service. “Classification of freight Is an Im portant factor In determining the freight charge and contains many valuable advantages for those wdio know, yet on account of being com plicated, many shippers do not under stand its provisions. "The provisions In the different classifications at present existing, are not uniform, being often higher in one than in the other and it re quires an experienced man to discov er the dilTerences. “The railroads charge the shipper according to the description on the bill of lading, and trade names by which the article is known to the shipper frequently aren ot spjeclfied in thee lassification. “The traffic manager studies the commodity and the classification, in structing the shipper how to pack and describe his goods to conform to thev arious prvisins of classifica tion and tariffs, thereby securing the lowest available freight charges. “To a shipper a certain rate may not appear unreasonable, or more than the traffic will bear, yet a com petitor located In another city may enjoy a preferential rate that places his competitors at such a disadvan tage as to exclude them from par ticipating In a certain market or force them to equalize freight and thereby reduce their legitimate profit. “Many shippers continue to equal ize freight charges by making a freight allowance to their customers instead of securing a correct relative adjustment of the rates, because in dividuality and collectively shippers in large cities have been more ac tive in their attention to freight rates, they now enjoy many advan tages over small coties and these ad vantages haveg reat weight with the prospective manufacturer seeking a location and frequently exceed the attractions of other Inducements of fered.” Maybe This Is Worth Readiog I hae built up my business from a one-typew’riter desk-room tlon in another man’s office, to where I now occupy my own office building filled up with hundreds and hundreds of all kinds of typewriters. I nave personally looked after each typewriter, carbon paper, ribbon and eveir ser vice that went from my office In past years, guaranteeing absolute satisfac tion or money refunded. I am no “cheap-screw” wanting your for nothing. I propose to continue my business for 1911 on the same hlgh- tone, square and fair business basis, and If you get anything from my of fice at any time not entirely satisfactory I will make it satisfactory. I make It a rule to never allow any customer to be displeased. I would appreciate any of your business for 1911. JONES—The Typewriter iVland and Public Notary. Office 225 North Tryon Street.
