DAN TOMPKINS, Editor Who said that the fates have not a grim, humor! The Fire Prevention Exhibit at the North Carolina State Pair, was destroyed by fire, Tuesday ni^ht. _ ? THE HOUSING ACT The National Housing Act is be ginning to operate, and its good .ef fects are beginiug to be felt in the nation. The provisions are understood, perlia|xsx by praqftically everybody, .siiicr they have been discussed freely in the press, at meetings and by ad" vertising campaigns. *. ? ? 1'nder it capital is beginning to flow into the channel's of trade tor making better lump's for the jteoplcy increasing the well-being and ronlk fort id' folks, giving them morepfirlt*. in their l,o:ies, and brightening the appearance of 'the landscape in town, city and country. But, it goes further than that, it. is releasing money into the building trades, putting carpenters, painters, brick- iayers, paper-hangers and tV? like at work oil hohscs. It is putting men to work in brick yards, factories, lumber mills, forests and mines, pre-' paring material for the builders' use. It is making the money flow 'through out the length and breadth of the country, and bringing back prosperity to millions of people. It is one of the most helpful piec es of legislation enacted in the Pres ident's plans foi1 the recovery of;J prosperity in America. If it is ad ministered as intended, it will prove to be a master stroke in finance. The Jackson Comity Hank, Sylva'" banking institution, is to be congrat ulated upon being one of the -litrsU banks in this part of the count ry'te offer ils facilities to the people i;i carrying out the provisions of the Natonnl Mousing Act. While other hesitated, or gave no thought to tin matter, The Jackson County Hank advertised throughout Western North ( arolina that it was ready to co operate with the people and the A\J. ministration in the mrittei'. It hjid vision enough to grasp the siguOi cance of the provisions of the act and to offer to serve in this region. Western North Carolina, a lumber ing country, should be especially in terested in the administration of the ?? act and iu furthering its purposes, for it means prosperity to one of oui greatest industries. TEACHERS NEEDN'T BE AFRAID VVc can see ivo cause, in the fatv ot' vising living costs, lor a')V teacher to he alarmed t hat Iht salary will he reduced a^ain, this year, despite head lines in city newspapers whore appo sition tu the prison t scliool law is keen, stating that there is- n short age of $700,000 in the t'uiiclx to opci ait<* the schools, 'this year. The State ot' North Carolina lues, since the days of Aveock, been fail to its teaehers in the cities. In many instances the taxpayers have put de cidedly more into the schools tha'n the results justified. During the pre* out hienniuiu the country children of North Carolina, in many districts, have had thjir litfst flhiwice . ?it a school 'term of' sufficient length to put them anywhere near on ai equal ity with city children, and this fact , lias so embittered certain now-papevs in the cities, mid certain teachers and school leaders, who haw had the .soft teat taken from their mouths, in order to give' the country children n chance that every little* excuse take a crack at the first real Stat" school systoni North Carolina hae? over had makes them see red ami ?H talk foolishly. lx-Uoy Martin, executive secretary of the school commission, is author itv for the statement that there is to he increased school expenses JhL-* yonr in the aavonnt of some $700,001) more than there is money in .sight to pay. He states that the principal causes of the increase i-s that nanv teachers have, l?y their scholastic at tainments, raised their- cert ideate rat ings, nivl their salaries, and theorct ieally at least, their value to the State as teachers; and also the natural North Carolina increase in school population has necessitated the em ployment of more teachers. However, it is to he remembered that there is sufficient money to tin1 ? ? nnce the schools for several months, and that the General Assembly con venes in .Taiuwrv, giving it ample time in which "to make provision to' take care of the necessary expenses of the schools .without reducing any body's pay chock, and. before the emergency actually arises! ' ?> So, we can see no cause for alarm. The people of the country districts ?f th?
