YEAR SAVED MONEY
Returned $69,701,000 to Treasury'
From Total Apropriation of $481.-
957,898.
Washington. Sejpt. 9.— UP) —By

to operate in the last few years, re
turned to the treasury $69,701,000 of [
its apropriation of $481,957,898 for
the fiscal year ending June 30 last.
The saving, a detailed report of
which has just bceu made to Director

made despite an increase in compensa
t'on payments for disability and deat
benefits from $115,494,991 for the fis
cal year 1024 to 1925, to $129,527,457
last year. The increase of more than
$14,000,000 was due largely to liberal- j
izing provisions of the world war vet

MEN IN HOODS FREE
CLEVELAND PRISONER
Chain Gang Guard at Slielby Over
powered and Locked in Room With
Prisoners.
Shelby, Sept. B.—Officers late this
afternoon had not been able to locate
the person thought by the gang camp
guard to have been the leader of the
hooded and robed band that early this -
morning held up the guard, freed Dil
lard Deane, a prisoner, and departed
after locking the guard up with the
thirty or more convicts on the Cleve
land county chain gang. However,
officers seem to feel sure they know
their man. and will locate him soon.
The delivery was one of the most
unusual and sensational ever known
here. In the darkness about 2:30
this morning a band of men, robed
and masked, some in white and oth
ers in black, appeared suddenly at the
chain gang camp within the city
limits of Shelby, overpowered the
lone guard, took his gun and keys,
unlocked the Deane youth and forced
other prisoners to file off his chains.
Then the eleven or twelve hooded men
threw the guard. Louis Eads, and his
cousin in the room with the white
prisoners, locked the door and de
parted with Deane. A negro passing
about daylight heard the guard’s cry
for help and notified Sheriff I.ogan,
who was forced to break down the
doors in order to release the guard.
General supposition is that tlie de
livery was not to harm Deane, for
tlie youth was badly frightened when
lie heard the masked men ask for him,
but his fears subsided after one of
the masker! party whispered in his
ear as they stood over other convicts
filing oway Deane's chains. It is
also local opinion that tlie men were |
not Ku Kluckers, but posed as such,
and were not even natives of this)
county, as Deane at the time of his
conviction of assault on a woman lived
in Gastonia, and prior to that time .
had lived in McDowell. j
Deane, a young man, was sen- t
teneed to two years on the road at (
the July term of court for an assault j
on a young Gastonia girl while on an t
automobile trip in this county. His ,
brother, Crawford Deane, was given j
a thirty days’ sentence at the same |
time for simple assault, he having
quieted another girl iu the car while ,
the affair took place in the rear seat.
The younger Deane -completed his sen
tence last week and inquiries were (
made at Gastonia today to learn if ,
lie was at home last night. ,
Since the leader of the masked .
party apparently knew where to find ,
files and other tools about the gang
fain]) it is presumed here that he had
had some connection with the gang
in the past. However officers, until 1
an arrest is made, will not name any '
one they suspect.

3 Consolidation Revolutionizing
Educational Life of the State
’)
t Raleigh ( Sept. 9.— UP) —“lntroduc
tion of the system of transportation of
„ school Children in this state not onlj
.. is reyolutionizing the educational lift
of the State. It has already done it.
{ And it is rapidly revolutionizing the
» whole life of the state."
j That was the statement of Super
s intendent of Public Instruction A. T.
Allen, today, in discussing the growth
s of the school consolidation idea and
the coincident growth of the trans
,} portation of children from their
s homes to the schools, and return.
,j “If you doubt the statement,” Mr.
e Allen continued, “all you have to do
is to go into one of the communities
where one of these consolidated high
schools hah been in existence for a
,f few years,” The whole life of the
y community and the surrounding ter
i. ritory is being affected, Mr. Allen
•e said. The schools are having the es
). feet of bringing new interests, new
8, ideas, and new life to entire sections.

r- rapidly in this state necessarily had j

tem of transportation of school cbil-|
Only a Few Contestants
So Far in Great Four- j
Automobile and Other
Prizes Campaign.
DON’T LET PRIZES
GO A BEGGING j
You Stand a Chance to Win
the Buick $2,110 Master- (
Six Brougham Which Is
the First Prize.
When The Concord Tribune and
Times determined to give away over
.SIO,OOO in automobiles and cash in its
great 4-automobile and cash gift dis- 11
tribution. it was thought that the a
prize list was so liberal that scores k
would get in and carry on. 11
The fact that one stands to win up c
to $2,110 and that “Everyone Wins *
Something,'* ought to have been enough
to “knock everyone cold.*’ Really, 0
that may be the cause. Maybe you are 11
“knocked so cold** you haven't fully h
recovered. e
You expected everyone in this sec- 8
tion to get into this election and ev- 11
eryone in this section expected you to 1
get in. The result is blit few are in ;
so few r in fact, we are wondering if v
The Tribune and Times were justified
in its confidence in the people of this 1
city and surrounding territory. 8
There ought to be at least, as many a
candidates as there are prizes offered.
Not one of the prizes ought to go beg- 1
g : ng. The cash commission of ten 1
per cent, offered to all who do not I
win one of the grand prizes ought, in 8
this day to be inducement enough to s
cause anyone to get busy. 1
You talk about money being tight. I
You talk about not being able to do
this or that. You cry because of an
alleged “tightness” in financial affairs 1
—yet there is over SIO,OOO waiting f
for men and women, married or single,
to take it as a gift without one cent. 1
of expense. And what is the result*/ 1
Everyone is afraid they have not the
time. Everyone is afraid someone 1
else has more selling ability and more
friends who will rally around them in
their effort to win.
The response to the Tribune-Times
election is pitiful! Really, it would
seem that there are enough men and
women in Concord and surrounding,
country who will have ambition and
energy enough to grasp this exception- :
al opportunity. You will have the 1
ability and the friends. Maybe you {
need someone to prod you along, to
make you help yourself.
This proposition is BIG enough to !
demand the attention of the BIGGEST ;
MAN OR WOMAN IN CONCORD
and this section. If someone came to
you today and put up a proposition in
which you stand to make SI,OOO a
month on the side for the next two 1
months, you would give it serious con
sideration. Yet what you are really
doing, hunting around for reasons to
excuse yourself from making more in
the next few w r eeks than you probably
do in a year and more than most peo
ple actually save in years and years.
If you have a car, if oue of the big
handsome cars do not appeal to you,
the cash they represent ought to ap
peal. With $2,000 you can do much.
You have a start on that home you
have wanted for so long. You have a
start in business. You have funds
to carry on in your present undertak
ing.
Maybe you have been scared out.
Maybe old Dame Rumor has been
whispering to you. There will be ru
mors and rumors. There will be talk
and talk. You can hear anything
you want to hear. You can get scar
ed if you want to. If you have been
considering this election you owe it to
yourself to know all there is about
it. You owe it to yourself to investi
| gate.
Conle to the Tribune-Times cam
pa:gn headquarters, room 2011 Cabar
rus Bank Bldg. Have this wonderful
opportunity explained to you. Don't
make a snap decision and then when
it is all over say. “Oh, if 1 had but
known that is all it would take 1 j
could have done that.”
Clip the nomination blank else
where in this issue. That gives you
Iren, and that, in turn, has been de
veloped along with the growth of the
ond system of the state.
Consolidation, based on the trans
portation of the children. Mr. Allen
said, is having three specific effects.
It is widening communities and com
munity interests; it is providng bet
ter educational facilities for the chil
dren brought to the consolidated
schools; and it is resulting in longer
school terms. The latter feature, he
said, was due to the reaction of the
people of the community. “When they
get a taste of good schools, they want
more—and provide longer terms for
the schools.”
The result of further development
of the system of transportation of
school children and of school ■consoli
dation—the two going along together
—will be the bringing of a good high
school within reach of the estimated
50,000 rural boys and girls who now
have no access to such a school, Mr.
Allen said in answer to a questipn as
Ito the ultimate result of the logical
development of the system. He then
