Last minute victories by the drys In keeping several counties out of wet dry referendum bills did little to ame liorate their defeat at the hands of the wet forces which hacked away bit by bit the 12-year-old Turlington Act. *Ihe reversal in tactics of the drys, which began in the Senate early yes terday morning when Dry Senator Paul Grady moved to reconsider the Day State-wide referendum bill, fin ally was abandoned as the Impatient legislators rushed towards adjournment. Speaker Fails Speaker Robert Grady Johnson him self stepped down from the chair in the House to attempt to stop the "piecemeal nullification" of the dry laws which was completed in the House yesterday, when that body accepted Senate amendments to the Pasquo tank County referendum bill and there by provided for liquor votes In 16 counties in addition to New Hanover, for which a referendum bill was passed Friday. "I suggest that the House and Sen ate recess and appoint a joint com mittee to draft a l?ew State-wide referendum bill and present it to us next Wednesday," said Speaker John son. Declaring that neither drys nor wets were satisfied with what they had done, he stated that he would "rather see the Legislature stay here another week" than to leave matters as they stood at the end of the House session". "Politically speaking," ' he Said, *1 think this Is a dangerous bill." "Most Vicious Bar* Opening discussion on the amended Pasquotank County bill, former Speak er R. L. Harris of Person declared, "This is the most vicious bill I've ever been called to vote cm." He termed it a "hodge-podge" measure conceived In haste. As Mr. Harris suggested and Repre sentative N. E. Day of Onslow admitted, amendments to the bill did not show clearly whether or not Onslow Co. was included in the bill. Onslow orig inally was included in amendments of fered in the Senate but Senator E. W. Summersill intended to withdraw it. Despite objections by Mr. Harris and pleadings of Representative R. L. Carr of Duplin, rock grounded dry of the House, the amended Pasquotank Co. bill passed. Representative W. L. Lumpkin spoke for the measure. The Franklin member asserted that the measure is sufficiently safe-guard ed by provisions which allow county commissioners In the counties design ated by the bill to decide the question of calling an election and which re quires that the people vote for county liquor stores before they are establish ed. " Local iiqour stores may be establish ed in Southern Pines and Pinehurst in Moore County upon petition of a majority of the voters. By one maneuver or another, the drys blocked passage of bills to in clude the counties of Durham, Chowan and Lee in the provisions of the refer endum bill. However, the drys last once again when the Calendar Com mittee reported unfavorably Senator T. H. Steele's bill to exempt a dozen counties from the Coburn wine man ufacturing bill passed Thursday, A move to override the committee's action was unsuccessful. It was after the referendum bill passed that Speaker Johnson made the plea for the House to proceed in a more orderly manner on the liquor question. Declaring that he was "per sonally dripping wet," th< Speaker said that he had voted dry out of de ference to Pender County's position. Following the Speaker's plea, Rep resentative W. P. School of Mecklen burg ofTered a resolution to postpone a committee to draft a State-wide li quor bill to be presented to the As sembly next Wednesday. While Speaker Johnson and leaders of both the wets and drys conferred with the Governor, it was evident up stairs in the Hall of the House that the strongest type of appeal and lead ership would be needed to hold the Legislature in session longer. Prom a cross the rotunda, expressions of the same sentiment were heard. Though not satisfied completely with their work, the Legislators were ready to decamp from the Capitol. "I think we've made a mess of things," said Representative Cherry, "and the only thing I know to do it to stand by it. Let's adjourn and go home." Before adjourning, the General As sembly patched up the tax foreclosure laws somewhat by passing a bill to bring in all necessary parties in tax suits now pending in the State. The House Calendar Committee on Friday rejected an administration measure to provide three alternative methods for undertaking tax sale proceedings. T. Mitchell Tull ' Roxboro Agent PRUDENTIAL INS.'
