PAGE 2 MAXWELL SEEKS GOVERNORSHIP Advocates Higher Tuition For Outsiders At State College; j Against A Sales Tax FOR DRASTIC ECONOMY By M. L. SHIFTMAN RALEIGH, Sept. 14.?Commissioner of Revenue Allen J. Maxwell did the unexpected thing in announcing his candidacy for Governor, but there is nothing unexpected in his platform. He is against the sales tax and for drastic economy. The only new thing in his platform is his advocacy of higher tuition charges for outsiders at State College North Carolina for the North Carolinians is his motto. He correctly senses that taxes will be the main issue in the next gubernatorial campaign. Doubtless he figures that being in the tax col lection business, he is logically tne man best fitted to deal with taxes. However, the announcement of his candidacy did not start any excitement. He is looked upon generally as just another candidate, but that it will complicate the political situ- J ation is certain. For he is not a man to be disposed of easily. He has ideas. ! The first immediate result of the! Maxwell candidacy was a renewal I of the pressness on Josephus Dan-1 iels to announce his candidacy for Governor. It is figured by advocates of the so-called luxury taxes that the Maxwell candidacy will divide its opponents. What they want now is a man to consolidate their forces. They figure that Daniels is the best candidate they could put up. Previous to the Maxwell announcement, it was generally believed that Daniels would not be a candidate. It was figured that he had too much to lose and too little to gain for him to give it serious consideration. However, it is now being put up to him as his duty to get into the race. As matters stood at the time of the Maxwell announcement, it was generally accepted that it boosted the prospects for Lieut. Gov. "Dick" Fountain. This was figured on the basis that it dimmed the chances of J. C. B. Ehringhaus, who beat Maxwell to getting on the anti-sales tax bandwagon. In other wods for the same reason that supporters of Daniels are urging him to get into the race. It divided the field against him still more. In the meantime the supporters of Attorney General Brummitt were quietly sawing wood. They would welcome the support of Daniels. With that they figure that the Maxwell candidacy would help their man. No recent visitor to Raleigh has attracted more attention than John Henry Hauser, the 82-year-qld Davie county mon, who has been1 sentenced to death for killing his son-in-law. His picture has been in most of the State papers. It is generally taken for granted that he will never die in the chair. His age counts heavily in his favor. He has two chances to escape. The Supreme Court may give him another trial or the Governor may commute his sentence. Protest has been made by his attorneys against his confinement in "Death Row." Pending his appeal he had the right to remain in the Davie county jail unless request was made by both the sheriff and solicitor that he be sent to Raleigh. The sheriff wanted him here, but the solicitor took no action. The public did not discover until a few days ago that life insurance agents must now be examined before they can secure license. This was one of the pieces of legislation that got through without attracting much attention. Not even the life insurance agents took it seriously until they learned at a recent examination that the Commissioner of Insurance, Dan C. Boney, means to enforce the law strictly. As a result more than fifty per cent of them failed. It is predicted that the next one will be taken more seriously, for it is gradually soaking in that the times have changed. It takes something more than a rate book now for a man to qualify as a life insurance agent. Not only is North Carolina raising less cotton this year than ever before in recent years, but it is also cutting its tobacco acreage. Official figures disclose an estimated reduction of 14 per cent from last year's yield while the reduction for the entire flue-cured belt is 18 per cent. Roughly North Carolina produces two-thirds of the flue-cured tobacco. It is estimated that the yield this year in this State will be five hundred million pounds. Raleigh is still debating whether or not it will have a nine months school term. The Raleigh township committee has again voted for an eight months' term, but the Raleigh Parent-Teachers' association is up in arms against the proposed cut. It is predicted that the schools will be kept open for nine months, if it has to be done by private subscription. Raleigh people are proud of their schools and don't want them to play second fiddle. The death of two Wake Forest high school boys in a collision of a school bus with a train has aroused the people of the State to the need of closer supervision of the transportation of children to th? Warren ton, North Carolina [schools. This was the first fatal ac. cident in the eight years that school 'buses have been operated in Wake . county during which time they have traveled more than two billion miles or 88 times the distance around the earth, and this is considered an excellent record, but not one good enough for the parents of children going to school. Governor Gardner has been marking time on his cotton reduction program pending action by the Texas Legislature, but he is keeping in close touch with the situation. He has been in communication by telephone with the chairman of the committee of the Texas Legislature which is drafting bills and has been watching the legislative deliberations carefully. Calling the Legislature was in line with his advocacy of a concerted program for the Southern states. Attorney General Brummitt has ruled that county boards of equalijzation may consider values of all classes of property in fixing values for tax purposes and not merely the particular class of property in which revaluation is being made. The ruling was made in connection -VitV, -raicinor nf vnlllfiS f>f Cotton VY1 til Ult xutuiiig v* * ? v. mill property in Johnston county. The cotton mill companies held that only cotton mills ought to be considered in making adjustments. Speaker Willis Smith, who recently was painfully cut about the head in an automobile accident near Charlotte, has returned home after spending some time in a Charlotte hospital. It was the first rest that he had taken since the convening of the Legislature. He is still being boomed for Governor. The annual meeting of the North Carolina Orphanage Association will be held at the Methodist Orphanage in Raleigh on September 24th. M. L. Kesler of Thomasville, is president, and M. L. Shipman, of Raleigh, is secretary. Addresses will be made by Mrs. Tom Bost, State Commissioner of Welfare; Dr. H. A. Royster, of Raleigh, and by several superintendents of orphanages including Joseph B. Johnston, of Barium Springs; Rev. C. K. Proctor, of Oxford, and W. M. Shuford, of Lexington. The State Supreme Court recently had an extended session to hear protests against admission of two applicants for license to practice law in North Carolina. Jack Yartnov, native of Atlantic City, N. J., came to Raleigh three months ago to take the examination. The Wake county bar association holds that as he is not a resident of the State he is disqualified under the law. However, he says that he came to the State with the bona fids intention of making his home here. The Guilford county bar association protested the granting of a license to J. Melville Field, of Liberty, who was convicted of misuse of the mails in 1926. Governor Gardner's plea for common honesty, nt only among the rank and file but among the higher ups, which was made before a conference of law enforcement officers at Chapel Hill, has caused wide comment. Th?9 papers advise the Governor that the best way in which he can practice what he preaches is not to turn out those sent to the State prison for embezzlement. Convictions have been general over the State and there are more of the "higher-ups" in the State prison than ever before in its history. Raleigh city commissioners still struggle along with their problem of finding money with which to pay bills. The local taxpayers' association urges a salary cut, the commissioners are divided on that question, and in the meantime there is the pressing question of borrowing enough money to foot current bills until taxes can be paid. Raleigh is welcoming back an army of college students. Hundreds of girls have enrolled at the opening of Meredith, the Baptist college for Women, and State College is looking forward to a record enrollment. Other colleges in the Capital are looking forward to a successful year. Preparations are going forward for holding a State Pair this year on the usual scale. While there is much complaint of hard times, there is generally evident determination to carry on as usual. Drewry News Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Brewer and Mrs. L. G.
