PAGE 2 SUPREME COURTSTART HEARINGS Official Vacations Over For State Officers; Gov. Gardner Visits National Park FLOGGING QUESTION UP By M. L. SHIPMAN RALEIGH, Aug.?31?The vacation season for officialdom in Raleigh is official!/ at an end. The Supreme Court resumes its hearings of appeals beginning with the First JucLcial district, and Governor Gardner is returning from his vacation which he spent in Western North Carolina. Both United States Senators have been vacationing all over North Carolina, thus continuing a precedent studiously observed by their predecessors. Advancing age kept both Senators Simmons and Overman at their homes in latter years but when they were younger men they traveled over the State and got acquainted with the folks and their problems. Although officially on vacations, Governor Gardner has been busy inspecting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and making speeches. For many people this would be anything else than a vacation, but the Governor is never so happy as when on the hustling. Both he and his wife get genuine joy out of meeting people. He has long been an enthusiast on the proposition and welcomed the opportunity to get better acquainted with its beauties. He sees great things for the State in this park, and so do its promoters in Washington. It is expected to be one of the State's biggest assets. Governor Gardner did not fall! fox a lot of the buncombe that is being handed out by many Governors as to remedies for the pres ent replorable conditions in the cotton market with the lowest prices in years, far below the cost of production. Instead cf recommending quack measures of plowing up every third row and calling special sessions of the Legislature, without any assurance of concerted action, he is urging President Hoover to call a special session of Congress to deal with the situation. He recognized that it is a National problem, not a sectional one. His action is in line with the feelngs of most of the Southern Senators, who have hurried to Washington to see what they can do. While the Supreme Court does not get into action in hearing appeals, it has been busy for a week grading examination papers. Despite the depression, one of the I largest classes for years applied for license to practice law. The class totalled 142 and 98 of them got by the brain twisters handed out by Chief Justice Stacy. Two protests against granting license were filed, and the court will hear arguments on these shortly. The Raleigh city schn ) boaid is in a quandary. After cutting teacher's salaries and making economies l: nlnnc the line it face.-, a nrob able deficit of $30,000 to $40,000 for the ensuing fiscal year. Rather than borrow money to run the schools it has been suggested that the term be cut to eignt months, but it is thought improbable that the Raleigh school patrons would consent to such curtailment. The Raleigh schools have a high standing, and i| is doubtful if any laige number oi patrons wou.d willingly p * mit a curtailment. So it is expected that some way wT. be found to maintain the schools. The most vigorous controversy stirred up recently in Raleigh Is over the question of flogging prisoners. Adopted rules of the State Highway Commission permit floggings while the State Welfare Department objects to such methods of punishment. The controversy was precipitated by the flogging of a half dozen convicts in Wake county. Governor Gardner is expected to act as arbitrator in the controversy and settle it. The Raleigh post of the American Legion is getting ready to lend its hearty co-operation to the drives that will be instituted this fall under auspices of the Federal government for collection of funds to aid the unemployed and the distressed. Post Commander R. L. McMilllan predicts that the local post will do its greatest work since its members went to war in 1917. Already more able bodied men are walking the streets begging for food than ever -* iU- . A# 4-U~ 1 IJtflUre UiO IlldtVlJ ux wxc City. The morale of many men and women has been shot to pieces. One of the big objects of the cam Warren ton, North Can If Each Could Choi Ik " ?.r ^^*s(b<^(^7T. i^o'J WTOC*S T paign will be to instill a spirit of hopefulness into the people. Despite the depression that is talked on every hand, the Raleigh boosters for the State Fair will take their usual two-day trip through the State his fall. They will tour Southern and Eastern portions of the State this year. Those booster trips have proven an excellent means of getting acquainted and have been very helpful in keeping the State Fair going. Since their inauguration the State Fair has grown by leaps and bounds, and it | is predicted that the attendance this year will be up to the usual standard. The Fair opens October 12th and continues for one week. The political pot continues to boil (with increasing fury. A big Democratic rally at High Point the past week was the occasion for another gathering of candidates and would be candidates. Already there are so many candidates that not all of them can be accomodated at one gathering, and Frank Grist is complaining that he was overlooked on j that program. J. C. B. Ehringhaus. I of Elizabeth City, has been on the J hustle in behalf of his candidacy for Governor. Never before in the State's history has there been so much interest so early in a gubernatorial campaign. State Banking Commissioner Gurney Hood is kept busy these days instituting suits against directors and officers of defunct banks who are alleged to have profited by reason of their intimate acquaintance with the conditions of the institutions under their con^?

He is J preparing to bring suit against the directors of the defunct Raleigh ranking and Trust Co., which has! been closed for a year without even the semblance of a dividend to its depositors. Revenue Commissioner Allen J. Maxwell continues his stump speaking around the State, but without declaring his intentions as to running for Governor. He admits tnat he has gotten many letters, many calls and many suggestions. He is not averse to running, but n* would i like for the call to be insistent and loud. So far that has not happened Nevertheless, he is on the warpath along with the other avowed candidates. Never in the history of North Carolina have so many erators been available for meetings and apparently never so many meetings were being held as now. North Carolina State College is preparing for an auspicious opening on September 18th. Already six hundred freshmen have Indicated that they will enroll this fall. It is expected that the college will have a large enrollment despite depressed conditions, which have made it necessary for a few students to drop out. President Brooks is back in his office after an extended vacation in Western North Carolina, due to illness, and is feeling fit.

Before one can practice plumbing now he must have license and the same is true of barbers. The State Department of Education has released figures showing that the tremendous increase in high school costs in North Carolina in the last five years may be due to the increased enrollment of negroes. These figures indicate that negro boys and girls are taking advantage of the opportunity to go to high school Cokesbury News Misses Elizabeth and Vergie Hicks Mrs. J. H. Hicks, Messrs.
