Raleigh, April 28.—Representatives of the various concerns which build school bus bodies in the State and their engineers conferred with offi cials and engineers of the State School Commission and of the Division of Purchase and on tract here Friday to see if any additional safety features should be added to the school bus body specifications before bids are called for, Leßoy Martin, executive secretary of the school commission, said today. As a result of this con ference, it is expected that several changes will be made in the present specifications and that the ibuses built under these revamped plans will be safer than ever. While the date for the opening of bids on some 800 new buses and bodies ihas not been definitely set yet, it is hoped to hold the first netting not later than the first week in June, Martin said.

Raleigh, April 28. —The 55 field dep uties of the State Department of Revenue, in charge of income, license and sales tax collections over the State are to be given some intensive in struction in how to audit the various typas cf tax returns in the special school to be held here Wednesday and Thursday of next week, it was an nounced today by Assistant Executive Commissioner of Revenue M. C. S. Noble, Jr. Particular emphasis will oe placed on the study of the most ef fective means of making collections from delinquent taxpayers and espe cially from merchants who are delin quent in sending in their sales tax collections. It was pointed out that there is less excuse for merchants to become delinquent in sending in sales tax collect’ons than for any others, since they do not pay the sales tax but only collect it. Hence if they fail to send in their collections when tne law require, they are withholding from the State money already paid in i'oy the tax-paying public. On Tuesday, the day before the school ofr the deputies opens some 25 of the field men will be called in and required to spend the day in the sales tax bookkeeping division.

(Central Pre»s) REVENUE SHAKE-UP Many Obstacles to Re- V'lmpiing of State Set-Up Are Encountered POLITICAL IN NATURE Maxwell, Department Head, Believed Out of Sympathy With Much of Noble’s Work, But Keeps His Silence Daily Dispatch Hui-can. In the Sir Walter Hotel. BY J. C. BASKERVILL. Raleigh, April 28—The reorganiza tion of the State Department of Reve nue is proceeding steadily, if slowly, and in spite of obstacles conceded to be largely political. Assistant Execu tive Commissioner of Revenue M. C. S. Noble, Jr., in charge of the reorgan ization, keeps hammering along and saying nothing, clipping off expense here and consolidating work there, despite the howls of departmental employees and objections of politi cians. Commissioner of Revenue A. J. Maxwell also continues to preserve a profound silence, although the pre vailing belief is that quite a number of the changes being made by Noble do not have his full approval, Indica tions also are that many more changes are still in prospect and that from 20 to 25 employes in the department are still to be dropped before the reorgan ization is completed and that they will not b ereplaced. These employes will be dropped only because they will no longer be needed i as a result of the reorganization, it is I understood, and not because they have been inefficient or dilatory. But the reorganization of the functions of the entire department and its various di visions has already indicated that there are from 15 to 20 stenographers and clerks now in its employ who no longer will be needed and that some four or five division heads or semi administrative officials can also be dispensed with, it has been learned. Not that these employes were not needed before under the old set-up in the department. They were undoubt edly essential then. But under the old plan of organiza tion, each division, subdivision and bureau in the department usually had its own cashier, bookkeeper and ste (Continued on Page Three.) 8 PAGES TODAY FIVE CENTS COPY imSS Traces of Associates of “Public Enemy No. 1” Are Found in Several Localities ARRESTS ARE MADE m KIDNAP AFFAIRS Suspects In Abduction Os Tucson, Ariz., Child Re leased; Two Desperado Fugitives Killed In Cali fornia; Government May Offer Rewards of $25,000 (By The Associated Press) Determined forces of the law bat tled crime in scattered sectors today, pursuing new trails in two kidnaping cases and pressing afresh the John Dillinger search.
