There is nothing to prevent the city of Charlotte from* calling another election according to the law, Martin pointed out. For the main reason the Supreme Court upheld he injunction issued to prevent the holding of the Charlotte election was that the reso lution was improperly drawn rather than because the city was regarded aa being in default. Martin said. “If the Charlotte school board will properly prepare its resolution and show that no part of the supplemental tax levy will ever be used for a ninth month and only to supplement the salaries of the teachers for the eighf. months term and then get the appro val of the School Commission, I see no reason why Charlotte cannot yet vote on a supplemental tax,” Martin (Continued on Page Three.)

BY J. C. B K SKEUVILL. Raleigh, May 22 —All for-hire truck operators in North Carolina will be required to register their vehicles within the next few days with the State Code authority for the Trucking Industry, in compliance with the codei and in accordance |pith rules and regulations approved by the National Recovery Administration, it was an nounced here today by W.

The code for the trucking industry provides that all operaors for hire must register their vehicles, pay the necessary registration fee, supply in formation concerning their operations and display insignia on their vehicles.

This sum is to be used in, the administration of the Code, includ ing registration, compiling and tabu lation results, filing of rates, conduct ing on rates and otherwise bringing about full compliance with the provisions of the Code, For hire operators have forty-five days from the effective date of the Code in which to mile their minimum rates and traffics,” it was explained, by R.

C. BASKERVILL. Raleigh, May 22.—Motorcades are picturesque making a lot of noise and let the people who see it know that so-and-so is running for Congress or sheriff or something. But theye do gum up traffic on the highways and in the towns, make those who have to use the roads fume and cuss and make observers wonder who paid foi the gasoline. They may make some votes —and they! may lose just as many. All of which may or may not have had something to do with the tele gram sent yesterday by George Ross Pou, one of thef ive candidates for Congress in the Fourth District, re questing that the proposed Pou-for- Congress motorcade, planned for Sat urday of this week and to be compos ed of some 400 cars, be cancelled. This motorcade had planned to tour as much of the district and go into as many of the seven counties as pos sible. Last week a motorcade com posed of about 5 cars, boosting Zolll coffer for Congress, toured thee dis trict, carrying its own brass band. A few days before Cooley for Congress Ihonking and sputtereing for Cooley, motorcade also made the rounds, these motorcades gummed up traffic on the highways and caused consid erable inconvenience to those who were yingto go places in al imited amount of time.

C RASKERVII.!. Raleigh, May 22.—Dr. A. T. Allen, State superintendent of public instruc tion, who for some time has been strongly advocating Federal participa tion in the support of tthe publio schools is now not only conceding that if the Federal government helps fi nance the schools it will also help control them, but maintains that such control will be beneficial. Dr. Allen is now in Washington looking into pending legislation to provide greater Federal help for schools. He is a member of the committee which is advocating an appropriation of 100,- 000,000 to be used for assisting the schools of the country for next year. This same committee originally was advocating a Federal appropriation ot $300,000,000 for year after next, ‘but has temporarily abandoned thatt part of its proposed program. In a speech here a few ago before both the Lions Club and the American Legion, Dr. Allen said that Federal participation in the support of the schools was necessary because the Federal governmentt was better able tot collect taxes than the states and local units. He also said that Federal control, while inevitable, would have many beneficial results, such as standardization of curriculum, of length of term, of salaries and othei things. He also maintained that a standardization school term partially financed aftd controlled by the Gov ernment 'in Washington would tend to increase and extend educational op portunity'throughout the country. This plan for Federal aid in the maintenance of the public school is not' as popular within many circles here as it is with Dr. Allen and the State Department of Public Instruo tion. It is evident, of course, that what Dr. Allen and thtose favoring partial federalization of the schools want is for the Government to grant each state several million dollars a year to be expended on the schools in addition to what the states, coun ties and towns have been providing. If itc ould be definitely known that the Government would tell the various states they could have whatever money that is appropriated without (Continued on Page Four.)
