From the viewpoint of a country doctor, Senator Long presents the deplorable diphtheria situation, and predicts that if his bill becomes law, diphtheria will within one genera tion became as rare in North Caro lina as bubonic plague or yellow fever. Senators Tom Gold, “Doggie” Hatcher and Hampton Price ex pressed concern for the traditiosal religious freedom of Americans. The same idea had been advanced in the health committee meeting and Dr. Long sponsored an amendment which he thought took care of it, but Sena tors Gold and Price doubted. Briefly, the bill makes it com pulsory for parents and guardians of children between the ages of six mosths and twelve mosths to have them vaccinated against diphtheria. They would be denied admission to public schools without such immun ization. Provision is made for the service to be performed without cost to the child, his parents or guardian. The committee suggested an a mendment making exceptions and exemptions from the law discretion ary with the county board of health. Dr. Long’s idea is that local boards would respect the religious convic tions of local citizens. Senator Gold and Pride offered an amendment very specifically exempting from the law “recognized members of any re ligious denomination the tenets ol which disapproved of medical treat ment and believe in faith healing.” The senate adopted that amend ment, ' further consideration of the w was deferred and the action may later be changed. Hungary to Smash Radical Social Group (Continued From Page One) were seized and taken to the political police bureau in 12 vans. Scores of the Hungarists through out the country were arrested as they resisted the campaign. Yesterday a Hungarist parliamentary representa tive told newsmen he expected the party to be disbanded today. It was learned from reliable sour ces that the party generally was ex pecting the police measures and had formed another organization. Its new name was not yet determined. Mem bership in the Hungarist party was estimated at more than 1,000,000. Coast Guard Here Denied Extra Plane (Continued From Page One) moonshine during prohibition are at it again. This was the explanation Congress received today for the large number of illicit stills seized in the Carolinas and other southern states during the 1938 fiscal year. Publish ed testimony on the 1940 Treasury appropriation bill, which includes the money requests for the alcohol tax unit, disclosed North Carolina rank ed third and South Carolina fourth among the states in the number of seizures. Only Alabama and Georgia topped the two states. North Carolina seizures totaled 911 stills, while the South Carolina number was 675. The hearings disclosed Represen tative Taber, Republican, New York, HENDERSON, (N. €.) DAILY DISPATCH FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1939 asked if a different class of people were operating stills now than in prohibition days, “ft is £he same boys,” replied Stewart Berkshire, de puty commissioner of the alcoholic tax unit. Contrast In Labor Share of Business (Continued From Page One) every five cent package of its pro duct sold in North Carolina. Mr. Tillett was arguing for a re duction in the proposed tax on the Western Union, which he said would be about $2,000 higher by reason of a proposal to include in the gross receipts of the company, upon which a six per cent franchise tax is levied, its receipts from messenger service. It w'as apparent that one of the bit terest fights of the finance commit tee will be waged around th<? head ache remedy tax proposal. In its present form it is proposed to make a special levy on all remedies which contain acetanelide. Mr. Page is one of its principal sponsors, and any campaign in which he enlists imme diately takes on added spice. An effort to table the whole mat ter was made at yesterday’s session, but was defeated, after which the proposal was referred to a sub-com mittee for study and report. Page, in supporting the proposal to tax the remedies, read into the com mittee record copious extracts from the income tax returns of the com pany which he called “No. 1.” The returns showed that gross re ceipts amounted to $1,130,174.80, with gross profits of more than $989,000, a sum which was, of course, reduced by other expenses. The returns showed, how’ever, that for salaries of employees the total amount, expended was $71,886.21, while no less than $421,000 was ex pended for “advertising”. Other items revealed that the raw materials from which the remedy was compounded cost but slightly more than $21,000. The total cost of production figures w'ere cited as $140,290.58. Mr. Page estimated that the tax on this type remedy v'ould yield “near er a quarter million than a hundred thousand dollars a year.” Mr. Umstead did not go into de tails of the Page figures, but did comment on a $32,000 attorney fee item. “I’m sorry they spent that big amount so soon,” after pointing out that all of it was spent before “my firm was employed for this hearing.” He contended that the proposed levy would be of extremely dubious constitutionality and probably a mis use of the legislature’s power to classify for taxing purposes. He pro tested vigorously at singling out pro ducts which contain acetanelide for special and punitive taxation. He likewise asserted that the char acter of the makers of the remedy is high. The B-C passages were high spots of the series of hearings which mar ked the committee session. In addi tion that and the Western Union protest, opponents of higher income taxes and of increased taxes on in stallment payer held by finance com panies were heard. Cokesbury News By MRS.
