INSURANCE.
The people of North .Carolina believe
in insurance as shown by the fact that
during the past year much new ;nsnr
nrue business was done in the btate.
•‘lncrease of ninety-one milllion dollars
in the amount of life insurance in force
in North Carolina was one of the remark
able achievements in the State last year,
says the Raleigh News and Observer in
commenting editorially on the increase in
insurance written during the year.
The new business for 1924 was an in
crease of twelve per cent, of the amount
in force at the beginning of the year
and brought the total in force up to
$836,902,718. The total is still $150.-
000.000 short of the billion dollar goal,
“but not so far that the billion dollar
mark may not be reached this year,
thinks the News and Observer.
While the total amount of insurance in
force is an item of much interest, of ev
en greater interest is that part of In
surance Commissioner Wade’s report
which shows that there are in the State
1.069,452 policies. That does not mean
there are that many policyholders foe
many persons hold several policies.
People are paying more attention to
insurance now than ever before and that
is an encouraging sign. The more in
surance policies there are the fewer or
phans and widows 'there will be for
charity to take care of.
We are a prosperous people in the Tar
Heel State and we will become even more
prosperous when we learn to invest more
in insurance and such things.
NO DEMOCRATIC CHOICE FOR
MAYOR.
Voters of Concord failed n the primary
Saturday to choose a Democratic nomi
nee for mayor, the race between J. B.
Wornble, “C. H. Barrier and John L. Mil
ler resulting in nothing definite but the
elimination of the” latter. As a result of
the voting Mr. Womblc and Mr. Barrier
will enter the run-off primary Saturday
of this week.
Mr. Barrier polled the largest vote in
the primary Saturday and bis strength
came as a surprise to the other candidates.
They knew him as a clean, liard-flghting
rival, but they did not seem to realize that
he was anything of a politician.
Mayor Womblc did little work before
the primary and as a result he was al
most eliminated. He led Mr. Miller by
less than 20 votes. The Mayor has
many friends and supporters in the city
but he will find it necessary to put in a
full week if he keeps the optimistic, frank
spoken, well known rival from copping
the honors.
Regardless of the party's decision in the
run-off the Democrats will offer a strong
ticket. In fact, it is very probable that
the Republicans will offer no opposition.
Mr. Womftlc and Mr. Barrier are fully
capable of handling the city's nffnirs in
a most efficient manner and the aldermen
chosen Saturday are certain to give full
consideration and deep thought to prob
lems that rightly come before them.

Hunt SjgJt Letter
By HARRY BUNT > i
NEA Service Writer 1 . ’ j
Washington—When the processes of]
the law become so involved that the govv]
ernment itself cannot follow them, it
would seem to the laymen that the time
had come for some simplified and com
monsense rules of procedure.
Contempt for the law. about which
public authorities complain so bitterly,
is helped, not hindered, by the spectacle
of such denouncements as came in the
government's prosecution of criminal in
dictments against Fall, Sinclair and Do
heny in connection with the "great oil
scandals.”
The indictments were quashed by
Chief Justice MeCpjy of the Districe Su
preme Court, ■ not because of any ques
tion of fact ih the evidence submitted to
the grand jury, but because of the pres
ence at the .grand jury ..hearings of V
repereeenative of the Department of Jus-'
tice.
The only, possible conclusion is that
the Department of Justice itself cannot
tell, under the involved and intricate
technicalities that have come to surround
grand jury procedure, when it should and
when it should not take a hand in pre
senting evidence for prosecution. Any
other conclusion would mean that the
department deliberately acted in away
to jeopardize the validity of the indict
ments; that the department was direct
ly seeking to thwart, not to obtain jus
tice.
• » »
Anyhow r . Assistant Attorney General
Oliver Pagan was present as an assist
ant to the special counsel appointed by
President Coolidge to prosecute the oil
cases, and McCoy holds he ought not
have'been there. The indictments are
voided on this .ground alone.
In ! the meantime —a full year having
passed since the indictments were re
turned—the statute of limitations has
expired bn the charges of bribery on
which two of the indictments were based.
If. on appeal, the action of Justice Me
i a '
' '■ ,U"IB
had become interested in the case, their
interest going so far as to lead to a con
ference at which the status of the labor
leader. After the conference it was an
nounced that the former governor was
going to do all he could to keep Jimison
from the chain gang.
That procedure is a little unusual isn't
it? Jimison was tried and sentenced. He
started to appeal, but changed his mind
and at much length told how he was pre- j
pared for the chain gang sentence. Just j
how did the court take up the case again?
On what grounds? And why was Jimi
son shown special favor all of a sudden?
Does former Governor Morrison pro
pose .to act as mediator between the ]
Charlotte courts and all of liis former
friends? Will the Charlotte courts al-1
low him such influence?
Os course many people see in the epi
sode a move on the part of the former
Governor to get in the good graces of
Jimison and his friends. .The former
Chief Executive has never said so. but
he is ambitious politically it is generally
believed and he thinks Jimison and his
friends will be in position to throw the
labor vote his way should he decide to
enter the senatorial race some day.
Os course, the former Governor has the
right to take up for his friends, but he
will be watched in the future to sec if
he follows the same course all of the
time. The people hare an idea he was
trying to mend his jmlitical fences and
it will be hard to convince them- other
wise.

| Coy is sustained, the goverment will,
jby the action of one of its assistant at
jtorney generals, have lost the right to
■ j press these bribery chargee further.
The whole cause of justice; therefore,'
rests not on the fact of bribery or lack
of it, but on a technicality which bars
the way to any trial on the real facts.
' And in this case the government itself
set up the technicality which thwarted
its own prosecution.

Speaking of bribery—Democrats sug
gest that actually, though not morally
or legally, some such influence was re
sponsible for Dorchester county, Mary
land, going Republican for the first time
in its history last November.
As the story goes, the presidential
yacht Mayflower, on one of Coolidge’s
week-end trips last fall, put in at Cam
bridge. Md., on lower Chesapeake Bay
one Sunday morning. The president and
his party debarked and made their way
to church to attend services. When the
collection plate was passed. Coolidge put
! into it a crisp new $5 bill.
The church authorities, proud of the
visit by the presidential party, seeking
some tangible token by which the mem
ory of the visit eonld be perpetuated,
pounced upon that $5. Instead of be
ing turned into the treasury it was prop
erly labeled, framed, and hung in the
vestry room. There it was inspected by
not only all of Cambridge, but by hun
dreds of visitors from thfc back country
who visited the county seat prior to elec
tion. The Coolidge contribution became
a ledestone that drew Democrats and
Republicans alike. Many who came
skeptical and scoffing, went away in
reverence.
Yes, it was true, they spread the word.
Five whole dollars, right out of the pres
idential poeket!
The result, aceording to the Denio
eratie a'.ibi experts, was the carrying of
Dorchester county at a personal cost to
the president of one $5 bill!

N. C. l>iury»Extension News Letter For
April, 1M&.
In the Much News Letter an error
was made ?n : calcqlating the average val
ue of the milk produced by tbe five high
cows. Instead of $49.50, the average val
ue given, Ife should hive been $66,90,
leaving « profit of $41.96 instead of
$24.50.
It is not too late to plant soybeans or
eowiieas for hay. If possible provision I
should be made tor one and one-half tons
of legume hay tor each cow to be fed this
winter. This type of hay, in addition
to its nutritive value, supplies lime phos
phorus and vitaiqines all of which arc
necessary for milk production and the de
velopment of a strong vigorous calf.
On many of onr smaller dairy farms
where cows are kept principally for but
terfat production more 1 consideration
should be given to tbe amount and qnal
ity of the roughage required by each cow
in one ye*r. The quantity provided is of
ten too. small and the quality low. The
roughage given in many instances con
sists almost dhtirely of corn stover, oat
or wheat straw and mixed gras hay, all
of which are low and unprofitable milk
producer*.
Iu order that these cows may have a
chance at higher and more profitable pro
duction it will be necessary that the crop
rotation on -the farms where they are lo
cated be arranged so ns to make available
the following amounts of feed, or their
equivalents, for each cow in the herd for
one year.
I 1-2 tone of legume hay.
15 bushels corn
II bushels oat*.
9 tons corn silftge or stock beets.
If the above amount of feed is grown
for each cow. and 300 pounds of cotton
seed meal and three “hundred pounds of
wheat brau .purchased, where they are
not grown on the farm and fed in con
nection with the above feeds, together
with pasture and some low protein rough
age a good profitable ration will be pro
vided throughout the year.
