SCHOOL BOARD TO
MEET ON MONDAY
But Election of Teachers May Have
To Be Deferred on Account
of Legislative Delay
Although a meeting of the city
school board has been set for next
Monday to elect teachers for the city
schools for next year, it i s possible
that the election will be postponed be
cause of delays in passing the school
machinery act through the General
Assembly. It will >be necessary to
know how many teachers will, be al
lotted before the elections can be held,
it is said.
At a meeting weeks ago, the school
board instructed Superintendent E. M.
Rollins to forward applications to
a'l members of the faculty of the city
schools, so that the information might
be available when the election is held.
Legislature Has Big Tasks
Ahead Before Quitting
(Oontlnuec Irom Page One.)
half mill kilowatt hour tax and the
tfranchise tax on *the market value
of foreign corporation stock, which
were tacked on the revenue bill in
the House. These House amendments,
which the Senate Finance Committee
has stricken out, amounted to ap
iproximately $1,200,000, while the ad
ditional one percent sales levy voted
by the committee added $3,000,000 to
the yield of the revenue bill.
According to the estimates’of Com
missioner of Revenue A. J. Maxwell,
the revenue bill as approved by the
House would yield $22,922,500 a year,
while the bill as revised by the Senate
Finance Committee, is estimated to
yield $24,716000. Both these figures
are exclusive of the beer tax. It is
believed that the Senate will follow its
finance committee and approve the
three percent sales tax. According to
most observers here no more than a
dozen senators will oppose the com
mittee bill.
Avoid Long Deadlock.
Thus, with Senate action on the
revenue bill amounting only to a for
mality compared with the bitter fight
over the bill in the House a week ago,
the next big test for the revenue bill
will come when it is, sent to confer
ence. However, it is now generally
predicted here that the two Houses
will not have a great deal of difficul
ty in arriving at a compromise. An
extended deadlock was precluded, it
is believed here, when the House
adopted a two percent sales tax. Since
the House has come around to the
view that a sales tax is inevitable,
it is believed that it is in no mood
to hold out against the senate on a
three percent rate.
It is now freely predicted that not
only will the Senate closely follow its
finance committee's recommendations
but that it will tak only a few days
for the House and Senate conferees
to get together, thus making possible
sine die adjournment early in May.
However, before that time, the gen
eral assembly has many other mat
ters to dispose of. While the imme
diate job before the Senate is ap
proval of the revenue bill, a number
of other major pieces of legislation
are pending in that body while the
House is faced with a heavy calendar
including more than two score pub-

BY J. C. BA-BKERVILL.
Raleigh, April 24.—Sine die adjourn
ment of the 1933 General Assembly
depends on how soon the two bran
ches can come to an amicable agree
ment on the revenue bill, and while
it is generally admitted that this can
not be accomplished until the first
week in May, there are plenty of
other things that indicate that the
1933 session will soon be history.
For one thing, all the committee
clerks, with the exception of the fi
nance committee clerk, have been dis
missed. Most of the committees, with
the exception of the finance commit
tees, have virtually ceased t 0 exist,
since bills of Statewire import have
stoppen flowing into the hoppers, and
it has become the rule rather than
an exception for local bills to be plac
ed on the calendar or passed under
a suspension of rules without the
formality of committee action.
lie bills.
Beer Bill Waits.
Matters now pending in the Senate
-include the final reading on the Hins
dale-Francis-Hartsell beer machinery
act, and action on a motion to re
consider the vote by which the Duna
gan bill creating a monopolistic state
compensation insurance fund failed
of passage a week ago. This bill was
defeated on third reading by a mar
gin of one vote, and propouents of
the bill, who claim that it will save
the industries of the State a half
million dollars annually in lower com
pensation insurance rates, besides of
fering protection to the workers
which they cannot now get with the
insurance companies restricting their
jpolicies and withdrawing from the
field, predict that it will be approved
by the Senate after it i s recalled.
School Legislation Coming.
The Senate is expected to get the
school machinery bill this week from
its education committee, and this is
expected to precipitate a bitter fight
over the question of limiting special
school district supplements, and the
jpruning of school administration
costs. The Senate also has yet to act
upon a bill introduced by Senator
Bland amending the tax relief act,
ratified last March 27, so as t 0 strike
out a provision permitting a 10 per
cent discount on delinquent taxes for
the past five years. The tax relief act.
not only abolishes tax penalise for
the past five years and permits the
/back taxes to be paid in five annual
installments, but allows a further 10
percent discount if any of the annual
installments are paid even one day in
advance of the day on which they
fall due.
House Still Has Big Job.
While the Senate is faled with set
tling these issues, in addition to ap
proving the revenue bill, the House
has a big job ahead of it yet. It, too,
will have to give its approval to a
school machinery act, and the Bland
and Dunagan bills if they are passed
by the Senate- The House 1 faces an
immediate fight over the school text
book bill reported out by its education
committee last week. A bill reported
favorably by the committee does not
materially change the present text
book set-up, but another bill came in
with a minority report which would
abolish the two present textbook com
missions and take the adoption of
school books out of the board of edu
cation’s hands and put it in the hands
of a new board to be appointed by
the governor.
Constitution Bill Peiiding.
A bill is also pending on the House
calendar which was introduced early
in the session by Representative Tam
Bowie, and which would not only
abolish the textbook commission but
would prevent the adoption of new
textbooks for a period of ten years.
The House has yet to act on the bill
submitting a new constitution in the
next general election. This bill has
passed the Senate, but was defeated
in the House. However, its House
sponsors plan to move for a recon
sideration. of the vote by which it
was defeated, and expect that the
House will finally approve, it. A score
of other Statewide bills are awaiting
action in the lower house, and it is
expected to get a committee beer ma
chinery act this week from its judi
ciary committee.
Botli Houses have yet to act upon a
bill calling an election next Novem
ber for the nomination of delegates
to a State convention the: following
month to pass on the question of rati
fication of repeal of the eighteenth
amendment. This bill has been sent
to the Supreme Court for an infor
mal ruling on its constitutionality,
and the court is expeited to report its
opinion within the next few days.

Hopes Upon House

hand-picked sub-committee of the
House Education Committee, which at
present appears almost solidly in fa
vor of permitting unlimited supple
mentation of State school funds by
special ad valorem ilevies, not only
in the cities and counties, but in the
smaller tax districts as well.
The sub-committee of the Senate
Education Committee is regarded as
being definitely opposed to unlimited
supplementation, even for cities and
counties, although it is willing to per
mit the larger cities and counties to
levy reasonable supplementary taxes.
But the Senate committee is compos
ed of only three members—Senators
Griffin, of Chowan; Francis, of Hay
wood; and Ingram of Randolph—
while the House sub-committee is
composed of five members. So if the
two committees continue to work on
the bill and then vote on it as a joint
committee, the House committee will
be able to predominate and write into
the bill permission for unlimited sup
plementation, which is what it hopes
to do. There is a possibility however,
that the Senate committee may refuse
to join with the House committee,
and may bring out its own bill. If
this group does decide to secede from
the House sub-committee it is be-
The reason for the cessation of
Statewide bills is obvious for the rea
son that everybody realizes that the
legislature is now in its dwing days
and with the calendars of both Hohses
fairly cluttered there would be little
chance of new bills completing their
icourse through the legislative mill,
what with the revenue and school
machinery bills yet to be disposed of.
For the past week there has been
a flood of local bills in both Houses,
but those almost invariably have been
placed on the calendar or passed un
der a suspension of rules. Ordinarily
a request for a suspension of rules
to pass a local bill is not made fre
quently, but now that adjournment
is in sight no member wants to take
a chance on his bill’s being held up
in committee and finally lost in the
rush to get home. For everyone knows
that as soon as the General Assembly
enacts a revenue and a school ma
chinery bill, it is going home without
further ado-

Limitations
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
la the Sir Walter Hotel.
BY J. C. BASKERVILL.
Raleigh, April 24.—Besides a sche
dule of licenses for retailers, whole
salers, bottlers and manufacturers,
one of the most troublesome features
of pending beer machinery legislation
in the General Assembly is the ques
tion of whether or not beer shall be
sold next door or across the street
from the churches.
The Hinsdale-Francis-Hartsell bill
pending in the Senate provides that
beer may not be sold within 300 fe'jt
of country churches or public schools
—that is, chhrches and schools out
side of incorporated cities and towns
that have no police protection. This
provision does not apply to unincor
porated towns and villages having po
lice protection.
This part of the regulatory act is
acceptable to the so-called “dry” ele
ment in the (General Assembly, but
this group believe that the churches
in the towns and cities should have
the same protection ,and they are
seeking to have the legislature in
corporate in the beer machinery net
that will be finally passed and amend
ment which would prevent the sale
of beer within a certain distance of
churches in the towns and citiqs.
However, such proposals as are be>-
ing advanced by this group meet with
strenuous opposition, since in many
caserf churches are located in the
business districts of some of the lar
ger towns and cities, and such a re
striction as is proposed by the “drys”
would prevent a number of hotels,
cases and other establishments from
selling beer because they, happened to
be located near a'church.
The drys kre arguing that unless a
restriction is placed upon the sale of
beer in the vicinity of the churches,
owners of adjacent lots may set up
objectionable beer dispensaries in an
effort to foi'ce the dhurch to Sell its
property at a loss. However, it is
pointed .out; by the; other side that
governing agencies could control such
“nuisances*’ as this. , ; ,

revenue we hope for under the pew
revenue act. begins to .come in after
July 1,” Governor .Ehringhaus said.
“I am naturally sympathetic and dis
like to do anything that hurt’s any
one else. So if it were not absolutely
necessary, I woulil not have ordered
this drastic curtailment in salaries
for the last three months of this fis
cal year. *j ;
“But the facts are these: the State
has approximately $6,000,000 in priri-'
cipal and interest payments coming
ing due on its bonds about July 1.
This must be paid in cash, from the
cash in the State treasury,' since it
is now and will be for some time, im
possible to borrow any .money at any
rate of interest. If these payments are
not made when due, the State will
default, its credit will be destroyed,
its bonds will slump in value and its
business industry paralyzed, and chaos
prevail generally. We cannot and will
not permit such a disastrous thihg' to
ihappen and hence have decided to
meet our obligations first and then
use whatever is left over for operat
ing expenses. Accordingly we have al
ready put aside the $6,000,000 needed
for debt service in July, and have ap
portioned what is left for the expenses
of the State for the remaining three
months. This is only about 50 per
cent of the amount usually expended
and less than that proportion of the
amount originally appropriated. Bui
we are compelled to operate on a cash
basis from now on, since it is kb- :;
solutely necessary.
“There is still another considera
tion. That is that when we renewed
the $12,500,(K)0 worth «of ‘ notes in New.
York a week or so ago for 60 days,
we did so only on the strict under
standing that these notes must be
Jcurtailed by at least 10 per cent on
June 15 before they can be renewed.
That means that we must pay $1,250,-
000 in cash on the principal of these
motes,' irf-. addition to the interest,- in

When asked if the State could sell
bonds with which to fund the $12,-
500,000 in short term notes, as au
thorized in a bill passed by the Gen
eral Assembly this past week, Gover
nor Ehringhaus pointed out that there
is absolutely no market for bonds at
the present time and that these bonds
though authorized, could not be sold
now even at 6 per cent. The result is
that the only thing the State can do
now is to continue to curtail and re
new these short term notes in accord
ance with the demands of the New
York banks that hold these notes, and
to hope that conditions will improve
eventually so that the bonds can be
sold. The decision of the Federal gov
ernment to go off the gold standard
has served to depress the bond mar
ket still more, making recovery in the
market more unlikely than ever,
"The people of the State dt> not
seem t 0 realize that I am the first
Governor of North Carolina in years
who, when he saw the money in the
State treasury getting low, borrow a
few million dollars to tide things
over,” Governor Ehringhaus said,
“But that is the case. So there has
been no other way out.”
