Friday, November 13,' 1931. THE PILOT, Aberdeen and Southern Pines, North Carolina Page Threa ^ife£APITAL ANNUAL POULTRY SHOW ON AT VASS THIS WEEK By M. R. Dunnagan, The Pilot’s Raleigh Correspondent Announcement of Attorr.ey General Dennis G. Brummitt that he will not be a candidate for nomination for Governor and admission that he will ajrain seek his present post caused another commotion on the otherwise placid political pond the past week. Surprise was expressed in some quarters, but the announcement was not unexpected in others. Many political observers exp>-ess the belief that the Democratic guber natorial list is closed, that R. T. Foun tain, A. J. Maxwell and J. C. B. Eh- ringhaus will be the only candidates for Governor in the Democratic pri- imary. Others say that Josephus Dan iels will either enter himself or trot jut another candidate, that neither of te entrants suit him as well as Mr. irummitt did and that he will not let rest with one of the trio. Willis Imith has not said he will not run, lit serious doubt is expressed regard- |g him. Nor is it expected that Gen- i»l Albert Cox will enter. iCeneral belief is that Mr. Daniels not satisfied with the line-up. He and Mr. Maxwell might be said to be at opposite poles, within the party. Nor does he see things as does Mr. Ehringhaus, although Mr. Ehringhaus is advocating special consideration for the little man—the small farm owner who works his own farm and the small home owner—for whom Mr. Daniels has always expressed deep concern. The sales tax, opposed in any form by Mr. Ehringhaus, is considered a sufficient barrier to keen him without the Daniels realm. Although Mr. Fountain probably comes nearer the Daniels pattern than either of the .others, he probably could not elicit enthusiastic Daniels support. Just which one of the remaining candidates the Brummitt retirement will aid most is a moot ((uestion. The Attorney General has a high type following. Among others it includ ed the bulk of the 23,000 teachers in the state. Only a few of’those will po to Mr. Maxwell, who finished alienation of the school forces by his thrusts at subsidizing tuition to out- of-state students at the State insti tutions, and his recent tilt with Supt. R. II. Latham, Winston-Salem. Mr. Fountain will likely get a good smat- lerinp; of the school vote, but he is chairman ,of the State Board of Kquilization, the bodv which has placed a limit on school expenditures, even though that was a command tc it from the Legislature, the board is held responsible, and Mr. Fountain, as ■vi.hairnian, will probably bear a big part of the blame. Normally, it might be supiOsed that a larger part of the school v.ote will (10 to Mr. Ehringhaus. He has not ^offended the school folks and he is known to be enthusiastic for pub lic schools and higher educational in stitutions. If Mr. Daniels should get into the race, he w.ould doubtless rally to his support a good slice of the school vote. The school folks are go ing: to be a formidable element in the coming primary and election. Specifi cally, it is certain that as a body, they will oppose Maxwell. Their vote, and they probably control fully 50,- 000 votes, may be scattered or divid ed, unless some new element enters into the campaign. * * * Mr. Brummitt’s answer to inquiry that he will again seek the Attor ney General post brings up another interesting condition. Two men had ■ already announced for his job. Sena tors J. R. Baggett, of Harnett county, and Peyton McSwain, Cleveland county. Both have said they will re main in the race in opposition to Mr. Brummitt. Mr. Brummitt’s friends say he has nothing to fear from him, that his record will carry him through without serious trouble, although his opponents are strong men and will have good support. Charles Ross, po tential candidate, is not expected to enter against Mf. Brummitt. Many friends of Mr. Brummitt ex press satisfaction that he took the step he did. He is loioked upon ,as excellent timber for the Supreme Court, a man with strong legal talent, studious and able. As Attorney Gen eral, he would be available as a mem ber of that body, if and when a va cancy occurs. As Governor he would not be. His present office is an ex cellent training field, a proving ground, for the Supreme Court bench. He is not expected to have additional opposition. * * * Governor Gardner, in accordance with his announce purpose, has named five agricultural experts to accompany him to Charlotte for the conference witli gwvemora of Virginia, Soilth Carolina and Georgia on Thursday of anteed to its teachers full pay for feels, apparently, in being , so far' PIl.OT COLTON “CRACKS UP” the constitutional term, and will bor- balked in his efforts to bring about a PLANE ON FLIGHT SOUTH row money, if necessary, to pay sal- special session of the General Assem- aries, he said. bly. attempting to take off from a The second annual Sandhills Poul in many states the scho,ols, oper- His scathing criticism that the gov- field at Ipswich, Conn., Pilot try Show is on at Vass, having open- ated locally in part or entirely, have einment is the people’s worst enemy, C'^lton of the KnollwooJ Airport had ed on Wednesday in the tobacco ware- closed and will not be operated, and that the last Legislature failed to tax » narrow escape from serious injury house there.
