Every cent realised from the licensing of automobiles said tha official, saves that much in taxea to the people and leaves that much mora >r tha further conduct of the food roads program. If tax-payers who have come up and paid license taxes would only report those who have not done to, than they would help them selves for there would than he this additional money for road building. The taxpayer who Isughs at the law breaker who is operating his ear without proper license la in reality laughing at himaelf,. asserted Mr. Everett in affect. There will be ao ad valorem tax to retire our road bonds, continued tha official in his discussion of the sub ject. Many, ha aaid, when tha pro gram was inaugurated, declared It would fail and that ultimately a tax on the land woqld he neceaaary to retire the new indebtedness of the state. Tha collections from the au to tax and the gas tax are continually refuting this argument. To date this license year there has been col lected more than M.M0.000 in licenae taxea, more than had been collected for the entire last licenae year. President'* Wire.

Miss Goodwin, who sailed on board the Empress of Canada was 400 miles off shore on the morning of the catastrophe. News of the earthquake waa wirelessed the Empress of Cana da by ths Empress of Australia which was in the harbor at Yokohama at the time. Miss Goodwin tells of ths dsns* smoke and terrific heat and how the Empress of Canada became a hospi tal ahip. She telle in graphic manner of the saving of a beautiful American girl after a day and night of horror; of the stream of wounded that flowed up the rope ladder and into the haven of refug i aboard the ship by a woman on her hands and knees; of a baby on the back of a stalwart officer; women n men's underlresr; a kimora, a rain coat—anything to hide their naked ness. They were all bloody, thirstv. hungry. Here is Miss Goodwin's pen picture of the horror: "Aboard R. M. S. Einpieea of Can ads, September 4, 1928.

Imagine thair consternation and chagrin when they were hailed from an automobile by, two young men whoan they had never wen before. Half a block further on, a similar pair in another ear whistled shrilly to attract their attention. On the next block another of Greensboro's "mashers'* sidled up insultingly elose to them. The above occurrence is typical of t condition that exists in this city. There are certain young men who, ictous of thought, unclean of mind, ind insulting.in manner make it al nsoat impossible for a young woman to walk the streta in safety. The ac tivities extend to motor can that roll leisurely up and down Elm street until they see one or two young women un pacorted whereupon they whistle, wave nr openly invite them to go for a ride. Then is only one meana that can be employed to stop this condition, and only one weapon capable of dealing with these fresh young gentlemen.
