The division of negro ! education in the State department has | been able to give this expansion wise j direction and greatly to encourage our I negro population. It has also been in | struinental in bringing about a more | amicable relation bptween the races and in restoring t'.ie confidence of each race in the good intentions of the other.” “Last year,” said Director Newbold, “seven negro schools received SSOO each. The increase of aid received from this source shows something of how our high developed as prospects in one yea r. "The Wilkes County Training School has made most satisfactory gains in one year. A course in negro history was offered last year. “The following negro educational in stitutions issued ‘annuals' at the last commencement: West Street High School, New Bern; Rennet College High School, Graensboro: Columbia Heights High School, Winston-Salem; State Normal, Elizabeth City; Warren County ‘ Training Schools, Wise; Mary Potter School, Oxford: Henderson Institute, Tenderson; Johnston County Traiing School, Smithfield; Shaw University, Raleigh. “Numerous high schools have begun the publication of papers.” Many valuable products come from thK mangrove forests of Siam, which cover an estimated area of 320,000 acres. THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE Stewart®^ BY CHARLES P. STEWART NBA Service Writer , WASH INO TO N—Congress* panes a lot es laws k's im - * possible to understand. They can be read In two or more differ ent ways. Or they contain conflicting Clauses or conflict with other laws. Or nobody’s able to figure out just what they do mean. ;» What would seem to be the nu tural thing to do when one of these mixed up laws gets onto the statute books? Why, to ask Congress about it, of course. I* Congress passed it. If anybody knows what Congress' idea was in dbing it, it certainly must be Con- ' gress itself. *So why, when the executive branch of the government runs up against one of these incompre hensibly-worded enactments, does n't go to ths. legislative branch and say, "This thing doesn't make sense—what In heck were you try ing to get at?” Then it could be explained, or fixed. - • » • BUT no.

Well, I think I'll smoke a cigar and thou go so bed.” Her Suitor: "Here!

What were you be fore you were sent up?” Prisoner 1800: “A telephone operator, sir.” The waiter was taking the order of a pretty girl who was accompanied by a florid podgy, middle-aged man. “And how about the lobster?” the waiter inquired. > “Oh. he can order whatever he likes," ( came the startling reply. Pewsimus: “I tell you. sir, most peo-! pie are crooks.” Optimus: "I have never found it sol myself, but of course a man can only j judge the world by t'.ie company he keeps." "Oh, what a cute little dolly! Dues I she sa.v ’Mama’ when you squeeze her?" : "Naw! My doll's modern doll. When you squeeze her. she says, 'Oh, Boy'!"

Now a judicial decision on to question of constitutionality is one thing. If Congress attempts something the fundamental code forbids, then doubtless it’s some court’s business to point out that it can't be done But interpreting and guessing laws into shape is different—it amounts to making them. ' The judges do their interpreting with such straight faces—their faith in their own infallibility is so well-grounded—that the by stander. watching them at it. isn’t art to realize how ridiculous it is. How do they know what meaning lessness means, any better than anybody else! * The executive officials, however, don't all take their guessing quite so seriously. ° "The fact is,” a high function ary of the So-and-so Bureau told me recently, "We never've been able to dope out how Congress in tended the Such-and-such Act to work, but we've agreed on what we thought perhaps it meant nnd that's the way we enforce the law." People go to jail _ and pay big fines op the strength of it, too. \' Dangerous Combination. Charlotte Observer. The combination of unlighted wagon and glaring headlight caused a mix-up on the Coneord-Mt.Pleasant roud which hats' provoked a letter to Governor .de l-can. It is all the better that the let ter should take this form because it emphasizes a condition common on the Xortlr Carolina highways, as it .. em phasizes the blunder of the Legislature in killing the law Which wfmld have re quired wagons, nnd all other vehicles using the State highways to tarry lights at night. As n matter of course, Governor Mcl-can is not responsible for conditions of (he kind, but the motion of the victim in gaining the greater pub licity for his complaint is not a bad one. The glaring headlight obtains in spire of law and common sense. Careful drivers jby night may dim their lights peisist ently, only to have response by an oc casional driver. The dazzling mid blind ing headlight is especially dang<roue when encountered while an unlighted wagon is involved in the situation, or when a pedestrian is walking alongside the road under shadow of the light. The affair on the highway in Cabarrus is duplicated in some part of the State al most every night. ■ The people who drive unlighted wagons do so at their own risk; it would not be so bad if possible consequences stopped there. The greater danger is to other ppople. A mighty fipe citizen of , Charlotte was slain on the Davidson I highway several months ago by a pro ject bit of timber from an unlighted j wagon. -It is the unfortunate privilege of drivers of wagons to use the liigh- I ways without lights at nfght; it would jnot have been so if the good sense of the j legis’ators had prevailed at the moment when the bill was on the eve of pas age. j It is well that incidents indicating j the dangers of the unlighted wagon may have record in the newspapers. that they may have even the more impressive form of publicity through the Governor, that the next Legislature may be 1 bolstered in courage to enact a law the need of which is becoming more and more apparent.
