M STATE CAME UP FROM DESPAIR McDuffee, Speaking at Mid. dieburg Opening, Tell* of New Set-Up LAUDS the assembly Says Legislators Did Their Best. Un. der Terrifying Conditions To Save Affairs of State and They Did It State Senator D. P. McDuffee was the speaker at Middleburg today at the opening of the fall term of the school, and traced the high spots of the last session of the General As sembly. of which he was a member. He showed how the State was in the depths of despair, followed by the tanking crisis, and how credit was shaken and impaired, and yet how that group of men worked sincerely and deteiminedly to bring order out of chaos and did it. Refermg to the legislative session, Senator McDuffee said: •Upon convening in January, the public mind was almost at the point Q f despair. The three legislatures last past acted upon the theory that bet ter economic conditions awaited only a short distance in the future, and in each instance, disappointment, result in that the income from taxes had failed in total aggregate of taking care of appropriated expenditures by approximately sixteen million dollars, coupled with attendant interest char ges >n the bond market that invari ably surround and envolep such con dition. Such condition not only of the mind, but substantiated in a very large degree in fact. Within a Tew days, the usual and customary meth ods of approach were inaugurated. For five weeks a most pathetic par ade of impoverished industry haunt ed every committee. Following this the final banking collapse of the en tire country. All of the work up to that time appeared of no avail, and no one understood or pretended to un derstand that he knew in what di rection to travel. Immediately, under Get Rid of Malaria! Banish Chilli and Fever! To conquer Malar.a, you must do two things, (1) Destroy the infection in the blood. (2) Butld up the blood to overcome the fefects and to fortify against further attack. There Is one ' medicine that does these things and that is Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic! The tasteless quinine in Grove’s Taste less Chill Tonic destroys the malarial infection in the blood while the iron builds up the blood. Thousands of people have conquered Malaria with the aid of Grove’s Tasteless Chilli Tonic. In addition to being a noted remedy for Malaria, it is also an ex cellent tonic of general use. Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic is pleasant to take and contains nothing harmful. Even children like it and they can take it safely.

Ap proximately 31 per cent of all indus tries in evidence two years prior thereto, gone. More people out of em ployment than at any time since 1907. No outstanding indication of better economic conditions in evidence. This grave condition was faced in a fear less and patriotic manner. Other forms of taxation in which many of us fail ed to agree as being wise, were en acted. The rates laid, an in dicated estimate reflected with a rea sonable certainty that sufficeint funds would be available t o the end that the credit of the .State remain intact; that' the essentials of government go forward and the higher institutions of learning and the public school system cared for in as near perfect state of action for the benefit of all the chil dren of the State, regardless of' whether they live in the city or in the more desolate sections. It is the most far-reaching step toward an equitable assurance of public school training ever offered to the children of the State that coincides with the true spirit of the Constitution, that every child shall enjoy the same bene fits tinder the same kind of tutor ing without preference to salary of a given teacher, or otherwise. “An ad valorem release upon real property, of a state average of 35c on the SIOO.OO, affected with the express ed restriction wrtften into the law, prohibiting any local authorities from replacing any part or portion or the whole of such tax. Its saving to real property owners 'in Vance County, based upon valuation of 1932, appro ximately seventy-six thousand dollars. And it is hoped that with return of normal conditions, with, the low es timates of anticipated return from taxes on industries, that such return may be realized many months before the end of the present bienium, to the end that the emergency form of taxation may be removed. “Then of what benefit to the stu dent body? “Districts abolished, transportation distance shortened and cost lowered, instructions upon equal parity to all, exact information as to costs of ad ministration and the term extended two months, without tax upon lands of their parents, which inures at pre sent, a monetary benefti as well as longer term by two months. “In conclusion, I merely observe that in January of this year, the cre dit of the State was impaired. It was in the hands of the money sharks, from whom no encouragemtn of fu ture loans were forthcoming. The pub lic mind of the State approaching HENDERSON, (N.C.)

Out of this came a bal anced budget, the credit o f the State maintained and as good and as credit able as any commonwealth in exis tence; relief to the frmers and land owners through the State to an aver age of 35c on the $100; the greatest reduction in the costs of government of any State in the union since 1913; the essentials of government guar anteed and the employees reasonably well satisfied, a longer and a better school system than the State has known at a smaller cost; and a new charter by which we may hope to live 35 are con f ron ted with new con ditions and new surroundings through the years that may come. From such no one in truth can point that a self seeking interest influenced its mak ing, but only a concentrated effort to save the people, of which that group considered themselves only a part.” I DR. WHITE WRITES OF MALARIA FEVER Says Malaria Counts Its Vic tims Yearly In Spite of Precautions Dr. C. H White, -■ Vance county health officers has the following to say of Malaria: “Despite the fact that we have ac curate means of diagnosis and a ready cure, and despite the fact that we have assured measures of preven tion,. malaria counts its victims an nually and continue to exist in our presence either in active stage or car rier stage. At present active cases are being reported from the rural section almost daily. “The work of Dr. Ross of Indian Army Medical Service in 1885 in which he proved that malaria was transmitted by the anopheles mosquito wsa one of the most brilliant dis coveries in sanitary science and on which is based, the prevention of ma laria. “Calaria is prevented as follows; (a) treatment of active and carrier cases, (b) destruction of the mos quitoes. “It is quite essential for active and carrier cases to be treated by family physician in order to obtain a com plete cure. It has been proven that quinin does not cure all cases of ma laria but other medicinal substance are necessary in some cases. It is quite essential to do this as in the United States, malaria probably hibernates in man and ont in mdsquito in the Win ter month.. ; . ; “The malarial-breeding insects mty be found breeding in tin cans fish and lilly ponds. r barrels, hoof prints, post dr hollow in trees, or trees; I : ,btH' they prefer grass horhdhri.boplw,' flowing ditches anti even such as are stocked with fish, provided the margins are shallow or are more or less choked with bushes and water plants so that fish cannot : . reach them. Some species of anopholes breed freely in grassy edef- and ed dies of fairly free running clear brooks. “Collection of water which may serve as breeding places are best dealt with by filling in or by draining If such is not possible as is case with mill ponds, fish will feed on larve •provided the margins of pool, rivers, and other bodies of water are kepi free of bushes water plants, and deep so that the fish can reach the edge. If above is not possible, coal oil may be poured along the edges of the pond. “Mosquito screen are the obvious and most effective single measure foi personal prophylaxis where disease ■carrying mosquitoes exist.” MANYSTONGSTED TO COTTON CHECKS Credit Obligations Must Come Ahead oF Grower Who Curtailed First checks. 17 of them, for cotton growers who plowed under a portion of their crop as the .result of pledges miade by them in the govtinnment’s cotton reduction campaign, were re ceived today by J. W. Sanders, county farm agen't, wlhi o led the drive ih this county. To obtain the checks, the growers must come to the county agent's of fice and s'lgn a receipt for the money before it ds turned over to them. (But there are many strings tied to (the checks at that. If an obligation is owed to the Re gional Agrlcuhural Oredltl iConpcjta. tion at Raleigh, that must be taken care of 'in some manner in the di'.s ipos'ition of the check. Where a seed loan was obtained through the crop •loan aget here, R. L. Shepherd, an adjustment o fitha't account also ha c to be made, and tire Federaril Land Bank also has a claim where theiv Is a maturing obligation involved. The county agent is required to notify by mail all indliv:dua'ls Whose checks he has. and these adjustments are made when the in divdual comer to the office to obtain his pay fo<r (plowing up the crop under the temms of the crop reduction agreement.
