Revenue Measures Require Attention Of General Assembly (BY DAN TOMPKINS) The General Assembly, or rather the Senate, is still worrying with tile Revenue Bill, reported out of Senator Kanis -Newman's finance committee, calculated 'to raise sufficient revenue to carry the expenses of the State for the next two years. When the Senate losolved itself inlto the committee of the whole, and assaults on the hill be ';m> this week, the problem of wheth er the the Assembly will adjourn soon t May, which will be a whole three .veeks earlier than the record of two ?oars ago, and four weeks better than 'ie 1031 session. Senators Johnston, of Buncombe, ' amsey of Transylvania, and Brown ng of Swain, successfully assailed the mnisions of the revehue bill pac ng a tax on hotel jmd tourist camp rooms. They took thy position that ?ie tax, a j>ai!t of the sales tax pro visions of the present revenue bill, would be a tax not on merchandise, but upon service, and that it would >!ace the tourist hotels and camps in North Carolina in unfair competition with those of other states, and that this would cost the western part of Xorth Carolina, during the summer season, many thousands of dollars, and that the same loss would fall upon !he Sand Hi Is country in the winter. I'hey carried their ]>oint, and got t-hfc tax stricken ot>t of the bill; but it i. an open secret that they held a big stick over the Senate in so doing, by threatening to join the two per tffnt? ers or the anti-sales taxers, which would have assured so throwing the joint that it would have neld the General Assembly in session for an indefinite period, or forced the Gov ernor to call an early special session to balance the budget. v There appears to be little ho]>o, even among the wettest of the wets, that | the Hill liquor control bill will have a ghost of a chance of passing at this session. At the same time, the con viction is growing, that unless there is a turning of the wet tide in other parts of the country, especially in nearby states, and that soon, North Carolina will be forced to adopt some other moans of controlling the flo*v of liquor than the present one, withjn a few years. Virginjais f'ooding tHo State of North Carolina with logjd liquor; and how to meet this new menace to the authority of North Car olina law is a really big problem, re quiring the best of sober, sane and j unprejudiced thinking. It is perfectly apparent that unless sentiment outside the borders of North Carolina exper iences a rapid revulsion, or imlc.ss <:ome way can be devised to stop the flow of liquor from outside, we shall, whetehr we relish the idea or not, or Whether the west wants it or not, see liquor sold legally in North Carolina, within the next few years. That is as plain as the nose on a man's face. The only really important measure still held in abeyanee in commit too is the school machinery bill, winch Chairman R. L. Harris, of education in the House, is holding awaiting the fnal disposition of the revenue act. A flood of bills continues to be dropped in the hoppers in both Hbuso and Senate, each day. They arc mostly of a local nature; but it is a known fact that should the General Assem bly continue to sit until next Christ mas, the legislators, or their folk" back home, would continue to think lup thing? that the Assembly should, n their opinion, do, .and the flood of daily bills mritimie. That' i.s roa'ly one^qtf?tbable that the ma jor legislat son will be the reen.net meat, in large measure, of what was done two years ago. The, sales tax will remain, schedules in the revenue bill will have been raised to mee' increased ;?ppropriait>ons for public schools and Stiate employees, but all the principles will remnin. That could have easily been done in sixty days or less." The only new building authorized for any institution was the provision for $15,000 to be spent on new con struction at Western Carolina Teach ers College at Cullowhee. Political Observers Expect Three Hats In Ring For Gubernatorial Nomination - i ? (By DAN TOMPKINS) Raleigh, April 10. ? The poiltical minded in the State capita! and who isn't, are giving much Thought to two 1936 races that are developing; that for Governor, and for Secretary of State. ?i Neither Clyde Hoey n*?r C'ongrc man (Farmer Boh) Doughton has yo't made any announcement as .to M? intention to enter the :ists, nor, for, that matter, foas Lieutenant (lovemorj A. II. (Sandy) Graham; but it is jj known fact that is not 10 be ovqjp looked, tliat Sandy has developed mo: strength while the General Assoinjjli has beon in session than most peonjif believed at the out-set wouild l>e the case. A great many members of th ' General Assembly, present and past are openly stating that They woiij like to sec Sandy elevated to the G deccssor of the present Administra tion, and rt is nndt?rsl!ood that* ijf tihrew its weight- in favor of t present Governor, it is believed th the Administration is looking in th direction for a morn sympathetic su* ?'v ; cessor. Not only is the Lieutalfeiirt' QttVWE or popular with tiie' l?gi?r past and present years, he has^ ord of service to the IJnvt gionaire. His friends pouftWt^t iWiJ/j this shou'd l>e of great benefit rwhen lie announces his candidacy, as he un doubtedly will .do at the proper time, regard'oss of who else runs. The fact that Clyde Hoey, who i* ] generally considered the most |w>piibir man in the State, with all factions and classes, came to Kaleigh 011 a memor able occasion and appeared before a j legislative committee, in the capacity of attorney for the Duke Power Company, whicr ;:s a ('itwn and :v lawyer lie had a perfect right to do. hasn't helped li s chances as a pros pective gubernatorial candidal, 11; j some quarters. On the other hand, > many of his friends would prefer t'J ? see Hoev with' Jd his fire until 103S, and oast Bob Reynolds l'rom his scat in the United Stotes Senate. Mr. Hocy, so far as is known, hasn't told : anybody what he exacts to do, [jjiough he is in Raleigh today, and has been here more frequently than is his custom, during the sessions of the General Assembly, and~a great many people are of the opinion that he is most seriously consid ering be coming a candidate for Governor, and Is also awaiting the rig/.; i-oment to ttiy thai he will accept I; nomina iOn. \ ? round out his political earee as Gov [ ernor of the State. He is a <* .-t farm-; er, and astute politician, ai ' know that if they vote foi hi; i for Governor the i)robability b ia( they ?yjll never again be caled uj>-n to predicted. ^lf Sandy Gi'ahani, Fai.aer Bcb Doughton, anfl Clyde 11 cov ail decide |fo run, and it is no'? unlivoly thai Jihis will eventuate, it will lv a cam igl? that will bp a niclnonaKc one in fortli Carolina, and it is !?v t;o me-in g?Ond the" probable that, with Hoey jfthi lining up tneir force Jt her, Saii-lt- would come he leader or t..e runner-up primary, r'act is, it i1 am iyin ft ifve either of the two ..- strong ran for ffi-s job. and that he "*>nld defear boMi easier thirt lie eou'd me of them. His legislative am! s< r oe connec tions would carry him r J;>ng way, aim his pleasing per?o!\a;' - a great asset to 111 in at all tiniru. It is no' secret tin - the popu'ar Thad Eu re, |>rinc'"al ' !t*rk of th<1 House of Represontatico," will bo al most sure to announce fr>r Secretory of State against the wsert incum bent, Stacey Wade. Eure knows peo ple all over Nori'h Caro'ina, has boon 'ii every county seat in the State in t^ip past two years, is alfo of pleasing personality, is popular with legrs'a ?tors, and could gjvo Mr. Wade a lo! of inconvenience in a State-wide race.
