INTERESTING USURY CASE As a penalty for collecting annually in advance interest rt the rate of six per cent, on a note which ran for seven years, R J. Whilley, well known business man of will be re quired to pay sl,o2'i, unless a judg-> iiv nt signed by the clerk of Wake Cou.ity Superior Ci urt be reversed. Action to recover money alleged to have boon paid itl u.'ury, with an ad ded penalty of 100 pet cent was in stitited on September 2N, 1921, b> I. M. Denton, Raleigh. Complaint was riled on November 4, 1921, and no an -.Wei has been teconied, judgment hav ing been entered yesterday by de fault, upon motion of attorney for the plaintiff. However, the defendant-has engaged counsel and tin- question may yet be ihi'esiiod out in the courts on an appeal from the judgment of the clerk. According to the complaint Deaton borrowed $1,600 from Whitley, exe cuting a mortgage on his home. The complaint'alleges that Deaton receivi ed only sl,llO in cash, collecting a year's interest in advance. The com plaint alleges that when the. note fell due in 1916 Deaton- was -able to poy only SSOO, paying S6O interest in ad vanie on the remaining SI,OOO. The complaint alleges that in each year ■the lime was extended, intere-d fin one year being paid in advpnee in each instance until 1920, when a bonus of S6O Was- paid In addition to tlie in terest payment. The note was fin.t'h settled and the mortgage disehargeu in April, 1921., 4 —, lii Jiis. complaint tho plaintit r sets up two causes of action. In the 'irst under which judgment was signed he demands double the amount of all in terest payments and the bonus. In the second cause of action, only re •, payment of the S4&O paid as inter est is demanded while odublo the a mount of the bonus is asked, the vhole being s!>7o.

WATTS. the sake of money, in this group are thousands of delinquent dependent, and defective children, all are in need of s|*>cial care and • treat ment., Al though North Carolina is ii rural state with no large cities with their fester ing slum districts, there ore isolated rural sections where many children are growing up in ignorance and with little chance for normal development. These "rural slums," centers of pien tal, moral and social stagnation, with their incalculable drain ppon child life aie not confined to any particular sec tion of the State, but are to lie-found in al'iiost every county from the re motest mountani coce and eastern swamp to the illiterate community of farm tenants almost under the shad ow of the State University. It is from such bad social environment as this that many criminals, paupers, mental defectives come. Not only are home, the church and the school respff sible for the welfare of their children, but the community itself is responsible for the type of citizen it produces. In the past there has been a ten dency-to take the criminal and pauper classes for granted and to assume that nothing could be done to prevent tHem It has been thought that they were produced by natural conditions, and that they occurred in fixed ratios. As a matter of fact, they are the inevi table results of unnatural and abnor mal conditions which have been al lowed to grow up in our society, and usually arise from conditions which ma? be prevented. Society has been careless about social problems, think ipg perhaps that all would "come right in the wash." Williamston, Marl in County.

There is no exemption of a person from taxation for , the simple reason that ho draws a salary from the state. Tho state ib not al lowed to tax employes of the federal government, who get their salaries di rect from some local disbursing of fice of the federal government. The commissioner has found some misunderstanding about the income tax. Many people believe they have paid tho iaeome tax for 1921, when as a matter of fact thoy have paid the taxes due the state on the in comes they made In 1910. This In come was listed with the. county list tnkers in May of last year, and has been duo since the fall. Some of these taxes havw not been paid, and some people paid them only this year. The fact that income tax blanks may have been received soon after the per son hail paid an income tax to the Btato caused the confusion. Tho commissioner reiterates that tlie counties will not collect the in« come tax for 1921. which will bo due on or before March 16, after which date penalties accrue. This tax will bo collected direct' by the state thru tho Revenue Department. in the income tax low," Col. Watts says: "In one section, it seems not to provide for a return from corpora tions having less than SI,OOO net in come while in another section it taxes all corporations on their entire net income. The commissioner has hail this matter up with the attorney-gen eral, who advises that all corporations are required to make-returns on their entire net Income without exemption. This course will be taken untij a deter mination by the court is had. All the net income of partnerships is taxable in tho individual returns of the part ners whether such profits have been actually paid to tho partners or con in the business. This ruling conforms t > the feileral law in thi* respect." JAMES ALBERT ROEBUCK * James Albert Roebuck of Rube r soil- Sril.lo lied at his homo Saturday morn ing at an early hour.

TUBERCULOSIS OF FOWLS Tuberculosis of Fowls is a chronic, infectious disease characterized by tho formation of tubercles or nodules, end resembling tul>erculosis of other ani mals, and num. It is commonly call ed spotted liver, liver complaint or rheumatism. Affected birds are also described as "going fight." The disease hus been observed in many species of birds, among which may be menioned he fowl, urkev. pig- eon, duck, goose, guinea fowl, pea fowl, ostrich, parrot, canary pheasant sparrow, and swan. Among wild birds it is most destructive to tho* confined in zoologicul garden*. Of domesicated birds the fowl shows by far the highest mortality from tu berculosis. Tho disease is known to prevail In many countries and is wido ly distributed in the United States. It has spread so extensively In some states as to cause very serious losses to tho poultry industry. The ■ insidious manner of attack makes tuberculosis most difficult to combat because in affected birds there uro no visible symptoms until the dis ease processes uro fur advanced, and in the meantime the bird may bo spreading the disease among others of the flock..
