The special., school tax election which will he held on November 26th is the rn<«d important school question put before the pe >pie of the county during the past decade and lunger. It i- simply the ques tion of whether or not the people of the rural sections of Cabarrus County want their children to have better school ad vantage-. And the question has to he answered by the people themselves. The matter rests with them now. and wheth n or not they vote for the tax will de termine whether the are to be or ganized.' This proposition is the first ever offer ed by which ru ail high schools can he erected in ail part? of the county. That is the most important phase of the ques tion and the phase that should he stress ed more than any other. - The plan as outlined by ••ounty school authorities em braces the following points: Eight and probably nice high *ch«j*ols located at point- where they can be eas ily reached by the greater number of children. Continuation ~f {he present grammar schools. 1 nder the new plan i here will he just as many teachers for the gram mar schools as there arc now. with not so many students. This means the teach ers will be able to giv< more time to each student. Fie*- transportation to students who live too far from the new schools to walk. The money for the purchase, upkeep an*l oik ration of the trucks i> provided in ill*' tax t » he voted on. High Iw.ol studies for flu- pupils of j - the new schools. In those schools ae- j credited High School teachers will be em ployed. - j Eight months school terms for every school. This applies to the ofel as well . ns the proposed schools. Selection of sites for schools so that ' the gr« a ter number of students will be j in walking distance. This will mean less { trniisportation expense. Iledistricting of school area for the purpose of finding the most central points for the location of the buildings. Elimination of all local school taxes now in force. The new tax will make it y possible for all present taxes to bo elim inated. School authorities in this and other eofUities who have made a careful study of rural school conditions have congrat ulated the county sein'd board on the plan by which they hope to give the coun ty a system of modern high schools. The plan calls for a complete system of schools throughout the county at tin 1 lease possible expense, it is pointed out, and without the county going in debt to’ get the work started.fl In other words if the election carries, and certainly it should, the money for the schools will be assured even before the work starts, and the schools will be made possible with- out’ great expense to any one. The pres! nt school buildings are not j to be done away with because the school j board finds that they can still be used for efficient grammar school work. In some counties w here consolidated schools are used both grammar ami high scho/d departments are combined in one build ing. That usually means congestion an:l more efficient school work can h'e -dona when the teacher has fewer pupils. In one consolidated school hi an aft>lining county, it was brought to the attention of the school beard, there are MO pttpiVs in tin' first grade. No teacher can prop erly train such a large number of pupils. Euder the plan proposed by the local board the grammar grades, or at least the first, second, third, fourth and prob ably the fifth grades, will be taught in tlie present school houses and the higher grades in the new bouses. That wJI mean less congestion. Under the 'terms of the call for the election as issued by the eomniLssumers. a rate not exceeding M 5 cents on the SIOO can he levied to take care uJI the proposed school system. Members o! the school board feel that the program can be car ried out with the rate of 2*> cents on the *lo'.', uud.it is almost eeitaiu tlnß the rate will net exceed 30 cents. The board estimates that nine schoolhouses can be erected and furnished with money raised by the 30 cent rate, and it is hoped i: c m be accomplished with a 25 cent rate. Every child in the county will be ben etitted by the proposed system, we feel. Even the little tots will get an eight mouths school term and should they be forced to drop out later and Help with the farm work they will have secured a bet ter education by the longer term whiie they will have secured a better education by the luoger term while they were in school. 4 , The taxes will not bankrupt any man hi the county and we need the new schools. Our children whether they live in the city or on the farm, deserve the best we can give them. aaaaxjiVJS aadoad h.io S. H. Hobbs, writing iu The University News Letter, gives some interesting facts relative to the exportation of native-born North Carolina. The facts ns given by Mr. Hobbs convince- The Charlotte News that “North Carolina is a population-ex porting State.” and “that anywhere you go throughout the United states. you can find a Tar Ilpel." In making his * statistics public Mr. Hobbs says “the traveler is very much impressed as he, here and there, en counters men and women who, although born in North Carolina, have east their lot elsewhere.” 0 According to Mr. Hobbs' figures, the people horn in North Carolina, blit now living in oilier States, number 443.844 and they range all the way from seventy live iu Vermont to 113.141 iu \ irginia. Even in far-away California there are 5.742 native Tar Heels. In Washington there are 5.729. in Arkansas 11.128. iu Texas. 14.666. in New York. 17.806. in Pennsylvania, 20.877. in Missouri 5.476. iu West Virginia 13,636, in Florida 17.- 35N. in Tennessee '_t.i44. in South ( ar olina 50.040. and in Virginia 113.151. or so in 1920. North Carolina has suffered a net loss ,of population to all the states of the Un . ion except live, and the net gain from four of these is insufficient. South Car olina is the only state that has suffered a net loss to North Carolina. In 1920 there were living ih South Carolina •»<).- 040 people born in North ( arolina. w.iile we had within our borders 62,323 people born in Sou>h (’arolina. a net gain in 'our favor of 12.283. Our net loss to Virginia was the largest, amounting to 1 75.618 people. In 1920 North Carolina 'was the adopted homes of .‘57.233 people t»fof Virginia birth? while \ irginia had 313.151 inhabitants born in this state. I Jr 1920 there were living in other states but born in North Carolina near ly a half million people. 443.844 to be exact. If all the people born in North i Carolina had remained at home we would 1 have had a population of sflightly more than three .million, instead of 2.0,*6.123 as reported by the census. At that time there we re ilviug in this state loT.OIH* ' people horn in other states. 1 Inis our net loss to other states was 285.848 peo ple and only six- states have sustained a greater net loss. . four of these being r southern states. Our net loss consisted of-172.261 native white, and 113.716 na- I tive negro**s. We had a slight net gain lof Other classes. The census shows that relatively the negroes arc more migratory than the whites. THE CHANCE IS HERE. The career of Charles I'. Steiumetz fur nishes a striking example of what can !>• accomplished in this country by a per son with ambition and love for work. r I lie electrical wizard came to the United States as a youth without reputation or wealth. In addition To being a foreigner ami unable to speak the English lan guage. he was deformed in body and car ried that deformity through life. But in spite of these handicaps he rose to the high position of consulting engineer of the General Electric Company, and at .the time of his death was generally rec ognized as one of the geniuses of the proshit age. Such a career is possible# only in a land of democracy. There are "reds and socialists and others of that kind Who would have us believe that only the | man with money and a pull Ims a chance i here. That is not true. Steiumetz had I nothing when lie landed in the I nited States but a few dollars and a passion for success. That he wanted to be re membered as a man who did things for i tli(> world rather than as a man of ! wealth is easily seen in his life. His 'salary with the General Electric 1 om ■ puny was a handsome one and he could have secured enormous sums for arti- cles and books if he had chosen to pre pare and sell them. But he didn t. Mon ey was not a great power to him and it is estimated that he left but $20.000. Here was a man who used money as it should be used—a power for doing good. His cash he spent in experiments that the world might be beuefitted. Steiumetz might have secured a tin cup and spent his days on the side of the road begging. His body was deformed as badly as the average beggar. But he had a vision, and that vision led him on to a place among the greatest electrical experts in-history. There is a wonderful lesson in the life of this mm. the strongest point of which is this—that the United States offers a ‘wonderful chance to every man who veal-- : ]y wants to go ahead. GETTING THE DROP. Governor l’inclmt. of Pennsylvania, seems to be getting the drop on oilier Republicans wbo ! are considered candi dates for tin l Republican President id nomination. While the other politicians of Governor Pineftot's faith have b**en sit ting quietly in the blind for flic op wing of the gunning season he has started a season of his own and during the piyt several weeks he has been doing some straight-forward shooting. We agree with The News and Observer in the thought that “whatever his aims, he is accomplishing much of value.” Governor Pinchot has devoted tin* greater part of his time recently to a study of the prohibition question and the fact that he has forced this issue when other Republicans were willing to let it alone at present, constitutes probably the iyost effective work the Pennsylvania Chief - Executive has gotten in since be ing mentioned as an opponent to Mr. Coolidge in the next Republican conven tion. Governor Pinchot believes that he has seen the light on the dry question as it affecty'l'ennsylvania and he has not hesitated to make his views known. In a letter sent Sunday night to the Secretary of the Treasury. Governor Pin chot placed the blame for what he term ed the “breakdown” of federal prohibi ting enforcement in Pennsylvania upon the Federal permit system. He declared Mr. Mellon, as Secretary of the Treas ury. h;ts the power, by control of these permits, to make violations “substantial ly impossible.” “You. as Secretary of the Treasury,” Mr. Pinehot’s letter said, “have the pow er to cut this flood off at the source by revoking these permits and by refusing to issue others except upon conditions sufficient, with honest enforcement, to make violations substantially impossi ble.” This forces the issuq. It puts it squarely up to a mcmber s os the cabinet of President Coolidge. What will Mr. Mellon prove? If he can't prove that Governor l’inehot is incorrect then the Pennsylvania Governor has scored a triumph. And that triumph will he scor ed against members of his own party. FORD’S POPULARITY. There are some people who find if practically impossible to understand Hen ry Ford's popularity with the farmers and the laboring folks generally. It is not hard to understand, we feel, when many of the facts are known. ’ Labor, the organ of the unions, gives some of the facts in a recent article in which it states that on the Ford railroad the average monthly earning of employes is 8185 against 8133 on other roads. There is no Sunday or overtime work on the Ford system, and the unkui pa nel- finds that this mean*- work for more men on the eight-hour shift. The paper points out further that under the Ford management the road is making money, something it never did before. In all of his plants Mr. Ford pays good money. In addition he has promis 'd to manufacture a cheaper fertilizer if the government will give him a lease on Muscle Shoals. These propositions ap peal to the average man and especially when they have been characteristic of Mr. Ford for years. The Detroit manu facturer ha* been mentioned prominently as a candidate for President, and it must be said to his credit that lie paid good wages and offered good cheap commodi ties even before lie was ever considered Presidential timber. That's what makes his work impressive. Senator Oscar Underwood is actively in the fight now seeking the Democratic Presidential nomination. The Alabama Senator started his campaign in Texas, where he is opposing the Ku Klux Klan. Senator Underwood undobutcdly will go to tlie next Democratic convention with many votes, but he will not get the nomination. He is not popular enough vet with tlie average man and McAdoo is. That's going to be the biggest reason .Mc- Adoo will be hard toMefeat in the con vention.

Eradication of Tuberculosis From Cuttle Is Progressing. Washington. Oct. 2!).—Eradication of •attie tuberculosis is making much.prog ress. Nearly 5,000.000 cattle are un der supervision of federal and state vet erinary inspectors and there is a wait ing list of more than 14.">.000 herds that will be tested a-s s on as inspectors can get to them, the Department of Agri culture states. Fully accredited herds, including both beef and dairy breeds, now total (Mi1,2(50 cattle, while nearly M,000.000 move have successfully passed the first tost in the process of becom ing accredited. A New York paper, after commending President Uoolidge's address on prohibi tion enforcement, quotes some words of ; ts own as applied to the situation existing ii} January. It 121, and adds: "Every word of it remains true today. And today, the conditions are even more serious than they were then. The be lief. cherished in the. first days of pro hibition, that the liquor traffic would subside when the old stocks of booze were drunk up lm* proved to be a de lusion. Bo'otlcggiug is on a firmer foot ing than it was three years ago.” Bishop Paulinas, of Xola. in Uampiua. is said to have been the first to recog nize the value of bells as a signal for sunnnonuig congregations to church.

N. X. Littlejohn and read today at the hear ing iu Fulton County court of the suit of E. M. Rittenhouse and others for a receivership for the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. BETTER HEALTH NOUGHT THROUGH CLEANER AIR Smoke Nuisances in Cities Again Receiv ing Attention. Washington. Oct. 29—Smoke nui sance in cities is again receiving the at tention of civic authorities and organi zation* in their campaign for its e!im> nation, reports to the Interior Idej mrt nient indicate. Ihe campaign was sus pended during the war. when most of the country’s smoke ordinances were held in abeyance to allow industries to operate unrestrictedly when maximum production wa* necessary. W ith the return of normal conditions many cities have shown a determination to take up this matter seriously and work out a solution. Residence s*moke, wflilo making prob ably less than 10 per cent, of the total smoke of a city, is particularly objec tionable because .it is produced in the section where its damaging possibilities are at a maximum. Such smoke has a serious psiltrologieal aspect in addition to its destructive effect on property. A net e lung diseases, such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and pleurisy, are affected by the corrosive funiey to a marked de gree. Investigators agree that there is a direct relation lx*tween a heavy smoke laden atmosphere and the morbidity of tin* papulation; moreover, it tends to lower efficiency and increases crime and suicide. INCREASE IN EXPORTS OF CRUDE MATERIALS Thirty-Five Per Cent, of Country’s Ex port# in September Were of Such Com modities. Washington. Oct. Mo.—Exports of crude materials for use in manufacture showed a marked tendency to increase during September, tlie Commerce depart ment analysis issued today indicting that MM per cent, of all the- country s exports during the month, or an amount valued at $131,500,000 consisted of such com modities. A year ago during the same month such exports were worth soo.til 1,- (M*o, or only 22 per cent, of the total. The country's exports on foodstuffs fell off sharply last month. unprepared food stuffs and food animals shipped abroad being 527.055.00;). as compared with $55.- 140.000 a year ago. Few changes took place in the proportion of materials im ported during September as compared with September a year ago. BROKE INTO HOSPITAL TO SEE WOMAN PATIENT E.

SAYS SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES MUST CHANGE They Are Not Working and Pulling To gether Says Cel. Joseph Hyde Pratt. ('lmpel Hill. Oet. 30.—The social serv ice agencies of North Carolina are not working and pulling together far the de sired results,” Col. Joseph Hyde Pratt, president cf the North Carolina once for Social Service, declared here today in an address before the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina. "There is,” he said, ‘‘too much tendency to work independently and not co-operatively. There is no need for- all organizations to do social service, and social service agencies to try and do the same charac ter of work. Duplication should be carefully avoided.” North Carolina has plenty bf legislation for obtaining the de sired results in social service, but the agencies are not doing their part to see that the legislation is carried out. Col. Pratt declared churches need to support social service to a greater than they are npw doing. He stressed the importance of churches engaging in so cial service in rural communities as well as in cities, declaring they* can do as much good for farm people as they can in congested centers 'of t population. Mrs. Kate Hun* Johnson, of Raleigh state commissioner of Public Welfare also spoke at the morning session.

Carroll Found in Room of the Carroll Home. Greenville, S. (’.. Oet. 30. —Miss Kate Cleveland. 20, and A. J. Carroll, 42. were found shot to death in a room of the Carroll home at Dundean village here thi* inot*ning.

Members of the Carroll family accepted the theory that the man was shot by the woman, after the latter had been wounded. He died instantly, but Miss Cleveland lived till shortly after shr was taken to a local hospital. Seventy-Three Thousand Auto Owners Get Seal Fees Back. Raleigh. Oet. 211.—Secretary of State W. N.
