IN THE MATTER

Haleig'j, April 21.—'The story of an
incident that was developed into an
issue, through careful cultivation by
a few determined women and still few
er North Carolina newspapers—that
is the history of the survey of women
in industry, ordered by Gov. A. JV,
McLean yesterday.
Over a period of four years, the
question has been raised intermittent
ly. Much of that time it has lain
dormant. At other times, and es
pecially during t'.ie past two.months,
it has assumed the magnitude and
importance of a state-wide issue;
why, no one has been able to ascer
tain. From the clamor which has
been raised, one not familiar with the
situation would have become con
vinced that the condition of North
Carolina's feminine industrial work
ers approximated the ante-bellum days
of slavery, yet not even the - most per
sistent advocates of the survey would
have admitted that.
The only explanation that those ou
the sideline could advance for the
furore among the combatants was
that someone wanted something that
somrone else doubted the necessity or
advisability of Mantling out. It might
have been a survey or it might/ have
been a new wrist watch; the prin
ciple was the same.
Since the survey of women in in
dustry first was proposed, two sur
veys, similar in purpose, have been
launched and completed and a third
has been begun, all in North Carolina.
Negligible state-wide interest has been
evinced ib them. Outside i'uf state,
seven state-wide surveys have*, been
- agettrK rftr in Mitt th
em states. Little, if any import
ance has been attached to them or
to tbe results.
The results of all the surveys have
tended to diminish general interest in
the proposal of a state-wide survey in
North Carolina, since the conclusion
in practically every case '.ins been that
tbe entire question of women in in
dustry, her home conditions, etc., is
an economic one which cannot be
changed to any material extent or
remedied by nny legislation which
might develop from the facts brought
out. Mothers who were Working, for
instance, had to work in order to prop
erly support ttieir children. Both bad
and good home conditions were found,
but it was found that this was de
pendent, largeley, upon the family’s in
come. No general mistreatment of
women employes was found in any
state.
Since the agitation first was begun,
tbe I’niversity of North Carolina has
completed a social and industrial sur
vey of Orange county ; the State Col
lege has completed a survey of condi
tions of agricultural folks in several
counties: through the agency of the
Nort'.i Carolina College for Women,
an economic and social survey of
Oreenßboro lias been carried out and
Duke University, in conjunction with
the Durham Chamber of Commerce,
has launched a sipiilar survey in
Durham.
So slight has been the interest in
those surveys that no one seems even
to recall the resu’ts T'.iafc might be
taken as evidence that it is not just
a survey that is desired by the pro
ponents of the agitation jUBt ended,
but their survey.
The survey soon to be undertaken
by the Child Welfare Commission,
with the assistance of the State Board
of Health, is expected to take several
months for completion. It will be
impossible to. cover the entire state.
While no detailed . announcement of
the plan to be followed has been made
public, it is generally understood that
typical counties, or groups of coun
ties, will be selected for the survey.
For Instance, for the survey of wony
en in manufacturing plans, a group
of counties such as Guilford, Meck
lenburg, Gaston and Durham might be
chosen, and plants employing women
covered thoroughly to determine the
exact conditions under .which women
are asked to work. !
Then, a group of agricultural coun
ties, such a« Hoke, Moore and Co
lumbus probably will be selected and
a survey made of the conditions un
der which women work on farms.
The investigation qf women in
stores might be - made almost any
where in the state.
4 considerable amount of data al
ready is in the hands of the Child
Welfare Commission and tbe State
Department of Health as these bodies
constantly are doing investigating up
on the same lines outlined in the
specific survey of women.
Just what is expected to be gained
from the survey seems to be in doubt.
Jn several southern states federal sur
veys. such as the agitators of the
North Carolina survey first requested,
were completed three and four years
ago and, so far ae can be learned, no
action has been taken to remedy any
of tbe evils uncovered. In fact, in

London, April 21. — UP) —The Duke
and Duchess of York are the praud
possessors of a girl baby, Tile little
princess made its advent into the
world at 2:40 o’clock this morning in
the childhood bedroom of the Duchess
in the town house of her father, the

The Duke of York is the second son

Ponii Sentenced to Prison.
Jacksonville, Fla., April 21.— UP) —
Charles Pnnzi. former Boston “finan-!
i cial wizard." was sentenced to serve
one yeas at hard labor in t'.ie State
penitentiary at Raeford by Judge ‘
James M. Peeler in criminal court
today. He was convicted on April ,
i 9th of violating the Florida law re-!
■ lating to the conduct of business un
• der a declaration of trust.
i Judge Peeler denied Ponzi’s motion
for a new trial. Ponzi who is now
■ engaged in conducting the Charpon
Land Syndicate, was given sixty days
l in which to perfect an appeal.
a number of those states it now is
frankly admitted that the trouble
which was to be remedied goes too deep
into the social and economic system
now in force to be eradicated with
out a complete revolution. Nothing
constructive has resulted because it
resolved itself into an economic situa
tion. It is admitted that some moth
ers have to work too hard to support
their families, but no remedial meas
ure, except outright charity, has been
brought forth either through surveys
or otherwise. On tenant farms, no
one has denied that mothers and
daughters are forced to work Jong
hours in the fields, in addition to do
ing housework, but none of the sur
veys in other states or in North Car
olina have resulted in higher prices
for crops, about the only remedy that
would permamently cure that ill. j
Charges have been hurled during
he final stages of the campaign that
manufacturers were opposed to the
survey, but no grounds for substan-. (
tiation have been - uncovered. Govcr- ! j
nor McLean a number of times has (
declared that not one has ever given j
him to believe that they were against
it and a number of the manufactur
ers themselves have stated that it
made no difference to them, one way [
or the other.
In a survey conducted some time
ago by one of the State educational
institutions, questionnaires were sent
out to manufacturers asking facts con
cerning costs. A number of manu
facturers refused to answer on the
grounds that such matters were trade
secrets and would lead to unfair com
petition should their costs become
known to their competitors. It is be
lieved that this refusal has been mis
taken as the attitude of leaders of
industry toward all surveys dealing
with their businesses.

HAYES OR BRITT WILL
OPPOSE MR. OVERMAN
Britt Believed to Have Slight Edge
in Betting at This Time.
State Capital Burenu of
The Concord Daily Tribune
Sir Walter Hotel Lobby
Raleigh, April 21.—Either Johnson
.T. Hayes, of North Wilkesboro, or J.
■I. Britt, of Ah'.teville, will be the Re
publican nominee for United States
senator, in the opinion of those Ral
eigh Republicans who make nny at
tempt to forecast the action of the
State executive committee in its meet
ing Thursday.
Mr. Britt has a slight pdge in the
betting, due to the fact that he al
ready has weathered two successful
oninpnigns one under great odds, but
doubt is expressed as to whether or
not he will accept the nomination
should it be tendered him.
Mr. Hayes had won his spurs prior
.to the recent State convention at
Durham, bnfabv his forceful handUug,
or file"difficult' job of spokesman dnd
I floor leader for the organization in
the fight against Marion Butler, he
proved his ability to handle the most
difficult assignment the party has to
offer. It is admitted in all quarters
that he would make ns good n race
as anyone for senator and some in- 1
clitic to the belief that he would make
j a shade the best of anyone else.
: It was freely predicted following
the State convention that the Bram
| hmn-Butler scrap brought forth the
party's next leader in Mr. Hayes nnd
: there is no little sentiment in favor
of starting him off right with the sen
atorial nomination.
| Republican oracles have declared
that Charles A. Cannon, the cotton
mill magnate who enjoys the confi
dence of labor and capital alike, would
have won easily over either Senator
i Overman or R. R. Reynolds. His
i refusal to accept the nomination be
l cause his own business affairs would
I not permit it, they are convinced, cost
I the Republicans their first United
| States senatorship since Marion But*
; ler. They are not disparaging either
! of the two likely substitute candidates
' when they say that, either, for their
J confidence in Mr. Cannon’s election
i was based upon his appeal to the pop
j ular imagination as a capitalist who j
I has made good and kept faith with
. his workmen. No other available
I nominee can produce that particular
I appeal, so they now have only the us
ual forlorn hope.

dence, is said to be the “Freihaus,”
Bituated in a suburb of Vienna. It

Rome. April 21.— (A I ) —Romans to-j
day abandoned t’iieir usual activities
and assembled in the gaily beflaggeil
streets and squares to celebrate the j
city's 2,680th anniversary with cere
monies symbolizing Mussolini’s de
termination that Rome's ancient glory
shall be restored.
Unlike most celebrations since the
advent of fascism, today's were domi

working men instead of the military,
in aceordatiee with the dedication of
j the event under the slogan "Tile spir
itual foundation of the new empire
lias been created, now the work of
realization must begin."
Scores of thousands of national nnd
black flags floated in a gentle breeze,
and innumerable multicolored procla
mations covered the walls of the build
ings throughout t'.ie city. Early in
the day the streets were filled with
marching men, most of them in work
ing clothes.
The first ceremonies were the lay
ing of wreaths on the monuments to
the war dead, notably the tomb of the
unknown soldier, where a pyre of in
censes were burning.

Letter From Senator Pin

j Washington. April 21.—OP)—Buf
] feted by complaints from both sides,
the Senate prohibition committee oon
| tinned its hearings today in an at
mosphere of increasing tension, the
drys again had the right of way, and
as tfie time alloted them drew toward
its close they put on the stand a suc
cession of witnesses who sjioke for
prohibition organizations, farm
groups, and others in opposition to
any change in the Volstead act,
The managers of the dry side of
the controversy formally asked that
their time be extended and the com
mittee took t'.ie petition under ad
visement. It was pointed out by the
dry leaders that Senator Reed, Demo
crat. of Missouri, the committee’s on
ly wet member, had taken up with
cross examination much of the time
alloted for dry testimony. Senator
Reed himself on the other hand has
complained that the drys are being
favored by t'.ie committee's method of
procedure.
The committee was twenty minutes
’ate in getting underway, but when
the meeting finally got underway it
I moved forward rapidly.
At the outset Chairman Harreld
announced receipt of a letter from
Governor Pinchot, of Pennsylvania,
declaring the dry law can be enforced,
but attacking present enforcement
methods. The chairman turned the
letter over to the dry managers who
indicated they would present it for
mally later.
Oliver W. Stewart, head of the fly
ing squadron foundation, made a brief
statement in which he declared con
ditions were improving under prohi
bition and then the drys put on the
stand S. L. Strivings, of Castile, N.
Y„ who said he spoke for the Na
tional Grange. zHe filed n brief re
capitulating tbe attitude of the grange
over sixty years on moral questions,
and disapproving any chnge in the
dry laws.
Meeting Started Late.
Washington, April 21.—C4>)—Fail
ure of committee members to put in
an appearance kept the drys waiting
when they assembled today in the
hearing room of the Senate prohibition
committee to continue their testimony
against mod'fication of the Volstead
, Act. At 10:20 a. in., 20 minutes af
ter the hour set for ihe hearing, no
I one had appeared to call the meeting
■ to order.
When the committee finally assem
bled the drys formally demanded 3
additional hours in which to conclude
their rase. They explained that much
of the 24 hours alloted them had been
taken up by Senator Reed, democrat,
Missouri, the committee’s one wet. The
senators took the demand under ad
visement and the drys went ahead
with their ease, calling Ol'ver W.
Stewart, of Chieago, president of the
flying squadron foundation of Indian
apolis, as the first witness.

Elmira, April 20.—Frod Hannah,

found that the prospective bride I
had a husband in prison. He advised |
the couple they must defer their
marriage until a divorce could be ob- ,
tained and they left the office.
Two hours later Hannah again ap
plied for a license to wed.
“You have not obtained a divorce
already?" queried the clerk.
“It's nil right.” said Hannah.
