Further Shake-Up In Reve nue Office Is Due For July 1 (Contlnueo (rum Page One.) reorganization of the entire depart ment into the three main divisions of assessments, collections and accounts. Terry is from Raleigh. t John Dorsett, in the license tax oT “Schedule B” division. Dorsett is from Siler City. R. A. Hoyle, field deputy, from Shelby. , Stancil Woolard, in the motor ve hicled ivision, from Rocky Mount There were rumors that several Other employes are ai&o slated to be dropped July 1, but none of these could be confirmed. It is understood, however, that the five listed above have already been notified that they will not be needed after the end of this wek. While it is not being officially ad mitted by Department of Revenue of ficials that any changes are scheduled to take effect July 1, it is expected that announcement of tnese Changes will be made in a few days and that the reasons given for letting these five men go will be because they are no longer needed and to promote more economy and efficiency in the depart ment. Already about 2p employes have been dropped from the payroll of the revenue department during the past six months on the ground that the re organization and better coordination of the department’s activities made their services no longer necessary. ' While the reorganization of the de partment being carried on by Com issioner Maxwell and Assistant Com missioner Noble has not proved popu lar here in Raleigh, especially among State employes, tehre are indications that the reorganization with its attend ant reduction in the number of em ployes and hence the cost of maintain ing the department is proving popular among the taxpayers of the State. Figures for the past two months indi cate that the department is collecting the State’s revenue now at consider ably less cost than a year ago, or at a collection cost of 1.9 per cent now as compared with a collection cost of 2.9 per. cent a year ago. This represents a saving of approximately SIO,OOO a month in the cost of collecting reve nue, based on the total amount col lected. Much of this savmg is directly traceable to the modern and air-tight collecting and accounting methods in troduced intq the department by George Scott, former well known Charlotte accountant, now director of the division of accounts. The various changes made in the de partment have been resented here in Raleigh because they have decreased the number of State job s and hence the amount of money spent here with Raleigh merchants, realtors anc board ing houses. For the State government is Raleigh’s leading business and State employees its biggest crop. It is also true that a peculiar psychology has de veloped here to the effect that if a person once gets a State job, he or she should be permitted to nold it from then on. But Governor J. C. B. Ehr inghaus has been insisting that effi ciency rather than political connec tions should determine the fate of State employees, at least in the De partment of Revenue. Mexico To Elect President Sunday (Continued from IT-age One.l date for the National Revolutionary Party—the party which controls poli tics from the presidency through gov ernors to the mayors of this country— and is sure of election. The opposition party, headed by An tonic Villarreal cis candidate, with Prof. Aurelio Manrique as manager of the campaign, is weak and is not regarded with seriousness. Both these individuals turned against the consti tutional government in siding with the Escobar revolution, which was put down by General Plutaroo Elias Calles. General about forty years old. He worked at his home town as a printer. Later he became governor of his home state, Michea can; then head of the National Revo lutionary Party, and finally Secretary of War. Cardenas is known as a strict ly revolutionary candidate in so far as be is determined to carry out the country’s Six Year Plan—a construc tive program of action set down by the National Revolutionary Party, The National Revolutionary. Party was founded as a result of General Plutarco Calles’ proposal to the two houses that such an organization should be formed to direct the des tinies of Mexico as a constitutional country. That was in 1928. The National Revolutionary Party, with members and offices all over the country, has come to be the main stay of law and order in Mexico through control of politics and a dis creet direction of the country into constructive channels. General Lazaro Cardenas holds the highest military rank—that of Divi sionary General. He has always es poused the cause of Mexico’s consti tution. and has contributed greatly toward the country’s rehabilitation. He will take office Dec. 1, 1934.

Pecora Consents To Head Control Os Stock Market (Continued from One.) It was considered likely he would be a member of the new commission and become chairman later. Pecora, who as counsel for the Sen ate committee, played a big part in drafting the stock marget legislation, ‘has been reluctant to accept a place on the commission created uy tha law, fleeing he should return to priv ate practice. The White House was informed, however, that he had been persuaded to serve for a year as chairman if that post were tendered him. Four Counties To Start Forest Fire Protection July 1 Dally Dispatch Bureau, Jn the Sir Walter Hotel. BY .1 O. BASKEHVILIi. Raleigh, June 27—Lenoir county has signed an agreement providing SBOO for cooperation with the Department of Conservation and Development in a forest fire control program begin ning with the nsw fiscal year, July 1.

In such an event, Robeson county will probably be attached to the new district since District No. 3, Fayetteville headquart ers, is growing too large to be hand led effectively by one district office. The new district, as proposed, would contain the following cooperating counties, in case all make provisions for the work: Robeson, Columbus, Bladen, and Brunswick, and possibly Sampson where considerable senti ment is developing for forest fire pro tection. _
