News News! The Sandhills Book Shop’s SOUTHERN F>1NE;s Cut R.a.te Complete Turnover in Stock Begins Monday, October 19th at 9 o’clock At the :APITAL By M. R. Dunnagan, The Pilot’s Raleigh Correspondent Attorney General Dennis G. Brum- n V- has said, in s^) many words, in statements issued last week, that he wants none of the support of the p:e=ent administration, as headed in the executive, if and when he enters me contest for the seat of that execu tive. The statements are two hefty " ” ^ at the wedge into the Gardner- B:u:/.niitt relationship, which has racking under the strain for nian'- months. Brummitt’s statements are dig- T-'r . terse and to the point, but show a feeling that has been fermenting in Brummitt breast a long time and j 't come to the surface. Mr. ^^-r/ aitt charges Tyre C. Taylor, ^or.n^ private secretary and present ex?r-:t:ve council to Governor, with ; V propoganda that Mr. Brum- " i resign as Attorney General ■ ^ formally announces his can- t r Governor. Mr. Brum mitt has never had and does not --h intention. That was one ■^ert. / ther is evidence of resent- 2^ being classed as a follower ;uadriennial revaluation mat- a radio speech by J. C. B. Eh- announced candidate for ^or, last week. Mr. Ehringhaus t cd pleasure that other candi- '^at‘ and prospectives have taken a f r revaluation of property announced his platform. Brummitt’s statement reported ersation with Governor Gard- rly in January, in which the -At,- General was asked to apprpve to postpone revaluation two 0 which Mr. Brummitt makes that he could not subscribe, he would have it known that not follow Mr. Ehringhaus, a for Qontinuing the quadnen- r valuation all along. The s^e- ^enr 15 precise, Mr. Brummitt giving »otite that more may be expected la- n the business of resigning whUe for office. B; his statement, Mr. Brummi.t t-' i imself a step nearer announce- but still leaves himself l^w»y ^ ^ ^ or not to run. Many still be- his candidacy depends upon '3: ’ ha-c in ■ tor ringhci Gov... a n^r r Worrit' a m year- h. '•>1^ Thu he fj; ^Ut ter. p whether ,or not Josephus Daniels gets into the race, although there is in timation from the Brummitt camp that his plans are not c<^tingent upon the running or not running of any man. Still there is much Daniels talk, but, as yet, no action. Many who doubted any inclination on his part to run, njow believe he is giving it serious consideration. It may be that he is playing with the proposal, in order to bring one of the others nearer to .the Daniels point of view/ possibly Mr. Brummitt, or maybe not. « « « Cap'n. B(Ob Reynolds, Asheville, prohibition law modification candi date for U. S. Senator, breezed into Raleigh and breezed out again, going and coming and from a 'speaking engagement at Scotland Neck last week. He left word that he will circu late a newspaper throughout the state late this month ,or early in No vember, sending it to every rural mail box in North Carolina. Editorials and news stories will present his views on modification of the prohi bition law, he said. _ ♦ ♦ ♦ « Governor Gardner is taking ser iously the plight of many unemploy ed people in N,orth Carolina as win ter progresses. Many letters reaching him tell of sad and heartrending con ditions. A woman with five children, oldest not more than 11, youngest a baby at the breast, come to the Gov ernor's office last week for help. She was from an adj(Oining county. Her husband had been sent to the roads. She could not work, and was sent to j the Governor for help. ' That aiid other evidences of distress helped inspire the call he sent out for I the 100 chairmen of county commis- I signers and maydrs of 38 towns hav- I ing more than 5,000 people to meet ' him in conference in Raleigh on Tues day of this week. Effors will be made to marshal all available forces in each town and county to aid the 200,000 un employed through the winter. Plans are being worked out neUeve as much as possible the strenuous period through which the people of the State will have to pass this winter. * * * Not yet is Governor Gardner con vinced that the State must be saved by conventing a special sessijon of the Legislature to deal with cotton and tobacco acreage reduction. Powerful forces are at work on him, including Jos«3phus Daniels and U. Benton Bla lock, head of the State and national cooperative organizations, with the in creasing number of states adopting the Texas plan of reduction. But there are many other forces of the State against it. ✓ The Craven county resolution asks for reduction by law in order to get rid of the tenant farmer. Then, if he is pl-evented from earning a living by law, the question is asked, what is to become of him ? If the State should stop him from work, then the State would be expected to feed and clothe him, is one answer offered. This is only one of several angles of the prjob- lem. A total of $769,504.14, including 1163,018.27 in preferred claims* $305,- 563.16 in secured claims and $299,822,- 71 in common claims—deposits—has been paid out by the State Banking Department under the new banking law from May 28 to October 1 this year. Commissioner of Banks Gumey • P. Hjood reports. The 41 banks from which payments I have been made during this period are ! in various stages of liquidation, pre- I ferred claims having been paid in 25 ; cases, secured claims in 21 instances and common claims in 12 cases. The i department now has 103 banks in some stage of liquidation, Mr. Hood states. ♦ ♦ ♦ Seven major textile divisions in I North Car<olina produce goods valued I at $45^723,359 in 1929, or more than ; 27 million dollars above the $425,437,- i 359 in value in 1927, the 1930 census ; figures, released by the Department of 1 Conservation and Development, show. The knit goods division, about five- ! sixths of it hosiery, showed a 40 per ! cent gain, to a value of $86,112,765. i Only dyeing and finishing declined in I the two years, to $16,079,262. Other 11929,values were: cordage and twine, I $7,928,174; cotton goods, $317,005,212; isilk and rayon, $18,587,608; woolen, I $6,019,905; cotton small wares, $995,- i 433. Workers in the 571 individual j plants numbered 123,138, receiving i $85,934,991 ii> wages. H A REVOLUnON IN ROOFING From the day the primitive man first covered his rude hut with a thatch of grass how to make a satisfactor5T roof has been a problem. Almost ever^j' conceivable agent has been drafted to keep out the weather, and always research has been looking for something better that-ls not prohibitive , in cost. THE SEARCH SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFOR FOR Channeldrain Cop-R-Loy Roofing MEETS ALL THE REQUIREMENTS I H It is la metal covering made of Cop-R-Loy, a ferrous compound that resists rust, and has a long life. To add to its durability it is coated with pure molten zinc, and so doubly protected that it is specified by architects and engineers for many buildings that require unusual resisting powers against corrosion. It lasts three times as long as ordinary gal vanized roofing, has a double lap to prevent leaking, comes in sizes that give a full two- feet cover by every strip on the roof, and in lengths of from six to eleven feet in the piece with all intermediate lengths by the foot. The Channel Drain Affords Double Precaution Against Leakage In addition to the ordinary lap of confmon steel roofing Channeldrain is provided with an extra channel at the lap, providing double wall against any moisture that might in any way be carried x>^st the one. Wind cannot blow moisture through any of the double lap. / _ Nothing Like It On The Market ANYBODY CAN PUT IT ON THE ROOF. Fully provided with ridge rolls, cornice, gable and starter, no sticks, no special tools to put it on, and it can’t be done wrong. SOLD EXCLUSIVELY BY Pinehurst Warehouses, Inc. PINEHURST, N. C.
