Aug. 2.?Differential re duction of cigarette taxes In order to bring more competition and great er consumption was suggested by J. B. Hutson. chief of the AAA to bacco section Jn an address before North Carolina farmers gathered at the 32nd annual Farm Week at State College. ' Explaining that he was not as suming to state the policy of the Administration. Mr. Hutson pre sented the differential tax plan as the result of "careful study of "the general idea of reduction in tobacco taxes over a period of several months." j The differential plan was reject ed last spring after extensive hear ings by the Ways and Means Com mittee, the committee voting 17 to 2 in favor of a blanket reduction of 40 per cent in the $3 per thousand. Five-Cent Package. The gist of the plan offered by Mr. Hutson provides for tax brack ets which would encourage produc tion of a package of 15 cigarettes for five cents to compete with pack= age of 20 of present "standard" brands to sell for ten cents. The proposed taxes would be: for cigarettes retailing at 12 1-2 cents a package or more, ?3 a thousand (the present tax); for cigarettes retail ing at 10 cents a package , of 20, 32 a thousand; for cigarettes retailing at five cents a package of 15, $1.40 a thousand. Boost Consumption. "Tobacco history," said Mr. Hut son, "reavls a real need for a to bacco tax system that will help not oply increase the' domestic con sumption of cigarettes but that will at the same time be favorable to wards greater competition in the manufacturing branch of the indus try, instead of aiding manufacturers toward monopolistic control." I Mr. Hutson added that some had "Indicated that they were fearful that the sale of cigarettes in two price classes might affect adverse ly the price of the better grades of tobacco," but he stated it as his opinion that the plan would "prob ably result In considerable shifting from smoking mixtures and hand made cigarette to manufactured cigarettes." -o Recommends Increase in Number State Patrolmen Highway Patrol Head Says increas ed Duties Call For 300-Man Group Raleigh, Aug. 3.?North Carolina should have 300 highway patrolman "in order that the Motoring public and .the public In general may have the proper protection they are Justly due," Captain Charles D. Farmer of the State Highway Patrol said yesterday in submitting his report for 1933-1934 to Commissioner of Revenue A. J. Maxwell. The patrol now has 54 men. Captain Farmer pointed out that the patrol is faced with four chief duties: Safety, traffic, license col lection and collection of gasoline and oil samples. It must patrol the State's 58.000 miles bf highway and "since the State has taken over all the roads and the counties have cut their law e iff or cement personal, the local enforcement officers feel that it Ls the duty of the State to police the highways So that they can put all their effort* to enforcing the criminal laws in their county," the patrol head wrote. Seldom Seen. | " The duties of the patrol have in creased so that it is very seldom that the public sees a patrolnUn, which ls causing a lot of criticism for which the patrol is not responsible "During the year there were 3.855 accidents that were reported, and many that were not reported. In the* accidents. 908 persons were killed and 5.482 injured, which is the largest number on our highways in any single year. "The traffic problem ts one that Is ever growing. The records of the Motor Vehicle Department show that we now hare registered in North Carolina 3133*1 automobiles and trucks, which Is more than the en tire registration ot last year." 1.083 persons were arrested during the year for driving while drunk. The total number of arrests 8335. Features of the report were: The patrol made a definite mone tary return of $67337032 during the year, of which $465,101.76 was In revenue. $54305.14 in court costs paid by' defendants. $77322.50 in! fines paid by defendants, and $76,-1 151.70 in stolen property recovered.' Travel Extensively. The men traveled- 1,480,474 miles,! used 54335 gallons of gasoline, and 267 1-4 gallons of oil. The patrol! nws a. OfYO Ail k/uive An a>iOv_ ' was on duty 203,041 hours, an aver age of 11 1-10 hours per man a day. It investigated 1307 accidents, in which 209 persons were killed and 1,159 injured. A total of 6,448 vehicles were in spected as to fitness for use and 519 were ordered to be repaired. A to tal of 68.591 automobiles wer stop-' ped because of defective lights. Dur-j ing the year courtesies were shown to 17.593 motorists 219 stolen cars were recovered and 1,108 vehicles were stored for not having proper' license or for being unlit for use ?n the highways. ? The patrol weighed 4,989 vehicles] and found that 2380 were overload-' ed. The patrol Investigated 5,091 complaints, extinguished 95 fires and rendered first aid to 51 persons. Escorts were furnished on 942 occasions and 1,559 persons were cited to court for traffic violations. The patrol took 6,760 samples of gasoline and 2,151 samples of oil. | Sentences imposed on defendants arrested by patrolmen during the year totaled 231 1-4 years and 7,2801 persons were found guilty, while 153 were found not guilty. o 30,000 Killed In Motor Accidents * ] (From an editorial from The Ro tarian Magazine) If a city of 30,000 souls?say Euez, Egypt, or Asheville, North Carolina ?were swept by a strange new pes tilence that left not one person liv ing, mankind would be shocked. Brain cells in countless heads would be agitated and scientists would pool their wisdom to stop the scourge al ready eating its way into another rty of like size. And yet?and yet last year in the United States alone. 30,000 persons were killed in motor accidents. Add to that the 850,000 more persons who were injured and still you do not have the total toll of suffering and heartache. The ghasty part of it all Is that it will be increased In the year 1034. Informing the public is the first step in stopping this modern plsgue. Everyone who grips a steering-wheel should know the practices which breed trouble. A large insurance company, alter an extensive study of causes of accidents has set them down in this order: 1. Drove too fast for conditions? this accounted for approximately three-fourths of all mishaps in 1933 assigned to driving blunders. 2. Failed to slow .down at in tersections. 3. Failed to keep to the right. 4. Tried to pass another car going in the same direction when view was obstructed. 5*. Failed to slow down for approach ing pedestrians. 6. Passed on the right of a preced ing vehicle. 7. Ignored important traffic control devices. ~ 4. Parked at dangerous spots. We live in a motorized age; from that there is no appeal. We are go ing to have automobiles; that fact is basic. But individually and col lectively we have got to make streets and highways safe, not only for the man at the wheel, but for the pedestrian. Human life is too valuable a thing to sacrifice wan tonly to the antics of the ignorant or the "cheese-brained- 'individual. Those 30,000 men, 'women and children must hot be forgotten. ?, o 'One machine now being used on Canadian farms can cut and thresh grain on 40 acres a day with only two men operating it.
