The Stone Mountain controversy is to be regretted, and unless the public is taken into the full confidence of the peo ple who are sponsoring the work the memorial may not be completed at any early date, if ever. (lutzon Horglum, the dismissed sculp tor, has finally been arrested awl at pres ent he is out on bond. He will be given a hearing this week. Bsrglum could have kept down nnieh of the present commotion by coming out into the ojien as soon as he was disthiss ed. Just why he wanted to leave under suspicion none seems to understand. If he had nothing to hide, why did he and h ! s friend Tucker move so mysteriously for several days that officers with war rants could not. locate them? Borglune declares he destroyed no mod els. of the work to be done at Stone Mountain. He had some rough models hut the texture of the granite made it necessary 9b change the work so often that' tie models were not followed. He contended further that the models were “children of his brain” and therefore were his property. The memorial association is opposed to this very point. Officials of the associa tion declare they paid Borglum far the models and regardless of the fact that he created them, they are now the property of the association. That point should be easily solved. The man who invents something lias no right to destroy it la ter if lie has sold it to some one else. It may be the “child of his brain" am! at the same time belong to someone else. We do not agree with Borglum in the belief that the memorial cannot be com pleted without his aid. He can raise the money easily, he says, but the people who would subscribe for him will not sub scribe for any one else. That may bo true, but at the same time there arc other people who will subscribe far the asso ciation if they are given all of tiie facts and are shown that the association is not responsible far the present misunderstand- ing. Thousands of dollars have been spent at Stone Mountain and but little work I has been done. There is no disputing | that fact, regardless of anything Bof glurn says. . We believe the association can find another sculptor to carry on the work, and if the right methods are em ployed we believe mtrre than enough mon ey for the work can be secured. POHTttL PAY AND RATE BILL SIGNED. I “resilient Coolidge Saturday signed the postal puy and rate bill. He surprised many persons by signing the, bill before presenting it to the post office department Byd budget commission for further exam ination. The bill is practically the same as the one the President vetoed several months ago, the main difference being that the bill signed provides means of rawing the additional revenue that will be needed to It to likely that the President soon Pill sign the fell giving members of Congress, the Vice/Pres«Nnt arid cabinet members more pfc. I. Wt tfat bill probably Is latter. .* V . / _ relative to increased pay for government officials back to the Senate but Ids es- jfart .ww defeated. The Senators got a | j “lame-duck ' so present tha hill in the j Senate fart jok», the same they are back ing it up. President Coolidge so far has had nothing to soy about Jt. It does not | provide means of raising additional reve- j nue but just the same Washington be-: lleves B will be signed. ( 1 Governor MeLean wants the State . i Treasurer to handle all accounts far the J, State and this recommendation is finding!' much favor in the State. At present the | various departments which are charged ‘ wifi' collecting money for the State keep i separate accounts. It seems that this systetn caused *>mt> confusion, it being al- • leged that sometimes the State Treasurer ; borrows money when another department 1 had all of the money he needed. Tim < Treasurer, Governor McLean contend-*, |' could keep better track of the State’s j finances if he had charge of all collections, j j The suggestion is one that deserves coo- , sideration at least. At present it seems that no one knows just how much money I the State has or anything about the finances aAd any system that tends to improve this condition is worthy of con sideration at least. '.THE GOOD OP IT Charoltte News. The proponents of the proposed amend ment to the constitution which would gyve Congress the direction over Ameri can children until they are 18 years of age has been overwhelmingly defeated, but it has accomplished a two-fald good in its defeat. In thd first place, the amendment has brought public attention to -the matter of child labor and has placed the em phasis in the righting of evil conditions pertaining to it in the place where it belongs, the states. The states have each been subjected to the searchlight of publicity and every little dark corner has -been thoroubgly exposed by those wjW were zealous in urging the passage of the proposed twentieth amendment. Tliis lias been the means of bringing about many in those states that were particularly lax in child labor leg islation and ■ enforcement. The enemies of the proposed national amendment are thoroughly in sympathy—most of them, at least —with the remedying of these bad conditions, but by the actions of the states and not the nation. Secondly, the amendment, by its over radical nature, has shown the citizens of the republic the trend that our gov ernment is taking and has for some time been taking, namely, toward a further centralization of power in Washington. With the increasing complexity of onr life and the attendant physical encroach ment of our national boundaries because of increased facilities of transportation and communication has come this grad ual strengthening of the national gov ernment until it threatens to become so topheavy as to fall of its own weight. Should the child labor amendment as contemplated be passed and the direc tion of American youth be placed in the hands of Congress, that body would at once shift the responsibility by creat ing another bureau to administer the law as enacted. And that would mean jnst one more bureau—from which . the American people pray deliverance. If there is anything of which we are tired and the very suggesttion of which threat ens nauseation it is the word "bureau.” This, then. Is the second reason why the agitation far the, contemplated twen tieth amendment has been of worth to tiie nation. It has shown us jusU-what may happen if we allow our nation to become further Prussianized. It af fords a warning to those who wonld fol low anti-American agitation that is leji in the most part by the sovietized, child less, overexcited feminists who in a sin cere but very ignorant way seek to in terpret the will of the mothers of Amer ica. The mendment. of course. %t present time is soundly defeated. But there is no time limit placed upon its ratifica tion and it can be brought yp over and over again in the same legislative halls that have repeatedly defeated it. This amendment was very cunningly drawn by its proponents and although every legis lature in the 48 states may kill it, it may still be considered alive in that it is forever threatening. This should be a lesson in future legislation of the kind. Every amendment, before passed by Congress, stiould be given a specified time limit in which it could be ratified ■ cr rejected by the State legislative . bodies.

MILK MADE / BAKERY f CHARGED WITH MURDER j OF GALLYKAN last fall Body Had Been Buried and Exhumed i mid Then Thrown Into a Bull Lot. ! Asheville, March 1. —Jean Israel and j Ed. Israel, brothers, were arrested at ■ their homes in Fletcher today, charged [with murder in connection wltl k «>e frag ile death last fall of James Galiyean. I It was learned that warrants have : been issued for Lawrence Walker and . Jeter Maxwell, both of whom are charged ! with complicity in the alleged murder. The two Israel boys are being held in jail at Hendersonville without bond, awaiting preliminary arraignment On charges of first degree mnrder. / When Gallyean’s body was first found the supposition was that he had been killed by a bull. An investigation, however, revealed suspicions circum stances. It was found that he had been [ operating a still near his home; that his body had been bnried in a creek bottom and had been exhumed to be thrown into ; the bull lot. A fractured-skull and concussions about the body were found. Cottiu Mills’ Income Taxes ,Bhow Enormous Shrinkage in One Year. Knleigh News and Observer. With March 15th, the last day for the filing of income taxes only two weeks away, returns already received by the State Department of Revenue indicate an enormous shrinkage in income taxes ( derived from cotton mills for the calen dar year 1924 over the receipts from the same source for the preceding year. Commissioner of Revenue R. A. Doughton has already received the in comes taxes from 25, cotton mills and the 25 paid a total tax of only hetween 11 and lfi per cont of the amount paid by tiie same mills for the calendar year 1923. When all the mills are heard from the percentage will probably, be Increased materially but at best the cotton mills will pay only a fraction of what they paid last. year. Railroads and tobacco manufacturers had large earn ings last year but there was also some falling off in furniture manufacturers. It is too early as yet to make any pre dictions ns to the receipts from indi viduals. The State last year Received $4,276,- 336.74 from income taxes and some time ago Commissioner Doughton pre dicted n decrease of $500,000 this year. The end frequently justifies the means, but with bootleg booze the means may justify the end.
