Tuesday, June 9. 1931 Has a New Job John H. Small,- a- designing |>olitician, lias taken j on a new job: he is working fur the liquor league. " Mr Small, for a quarter of a century representative i from the first congressional district of North Carolina, ' has developed into a 100 |H*r tern political manipulator and professional lobbyist. He is so fine along that j line that he is said to have made more for himself otii of politics than he made for the ZL'O.yOO people of hi# 1 -, district. He has moved from North Carolina to the 1 f*liistrict of Columbia, and is not now a voter in the j I'nited States, but he is still playing the game. His j principal business is to lead Congressmen in wrong j l>aths. He is exactly the same thing that we had hang ing- around Raleigh during the recent session of the legislature, called lobbyists. Don't forget to watch Johnny, or he will get more, out of politics than you do. ' - Vigilant Committee Needed North Carolina still needs one mitre whole-linn* . committee, and that i- .i loinliiittee t" investigate lobbying, and for the purpose of suppressing uii duo influences for personal gains. The present generation has the biggest war to their i credit (>f any Other period in the world's history, d They havt tin most gigantii war debts >f all times combined. Hut worse than all these is theTombrui tion of (xilitiial string pullets who have worked tlu*ir | unholy and dishonest combinations on every branch of business in the country. The Raleigh combination. - the Tennessee gang, the 'Asheville tie ut>, and many . 1 .■ I others are evidence that we need a vigilant committee on the watch every hour in the day and night. RESOLUTIONS • . * -x . • . Approved by the Board of Commissioners of Martin County ! "' " '.'l'M . ■ WHEREAS, Hon. J. Calvin Smith, as representative from Martin County, and Hon. Elbert S. Peel, as one of the senators from this senatorial district, in the General Assembly of North Carolina of 1931, have at great personal sacrifice to themselves, rendered to Martin County and the people of the entire State of North Carolina, a distingt ished service in their leadership and actions in said General Assembly, especially in regard to reduc ing taxes on property; and Lf. ' * ' . WHEREAS, we wish to recognize the unselfish service of our said legislators to our people; NOW, BE IT RESOLVED, by-Board of Commissioners of Martin CoUnty that we do declare our approval of the acts of Hon. J. Calvin Smith as representative of Martin County, and Hon. Elbert S. Peel as senator of this district, as members of the General Assembly of North Carolina of 1931, and do extend to them on behalf of the people of the county our thanks and ap preciation of their splendid and outstanding efforts for reducing the taxes on property in this county. . , f THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS T. C. GRIFFIN, CHAIRMAN 1,1 ' PUf LIIHID tVKNV TU'.DAY A MO rWIPAY Laziness Helps Hard Times We can not come back unless we retarse our course. Loaf bread is coming to Williamston already sliced, all the way from Norfolk, with double wrapping ma terial. Loaf bread is coming from Roanoke Rapids already buttered. The user is paying too much for what he is getting, thinking only of convenience. What the country needs is more folks who are will ing to break their own bread and not pay the cost of slicing, double wrapping. jand carting all the way from Norfolk. ' I*hat old thing we call laziness is helping make hard times. When all the women—and men, too — fully realize hard times are here, they will soon apply their energies along more sane .lines and drive pov erty and hard times away. State-Supported Schools The constitution of North Carolina adopted in 1868 provided that there should be "a uniform system of public schools" in the State. This mandate of the constitution has never been obeyed, but it seems now that it is on the way to realization. The State has had supervision of the public schools for a long time; it seems that it is now going .to pay the expense of op . era ting them. The system under which the public schools have been conducted for some time, part State and part county control, is not satisfactory. It ought to be one thing or the other. Divided responsibility rarely ever works well. If each county managed and paid for its own schools public education would be an un satisfactory hodge-podge. Some counties would have goOtl schools, some fairly good,-and others poor ones. .In the long run such a method would prove harmful to-the State in that many of her citizens would be very poorly educated. It is a better way to let the State do the whole job and give all the children equal opportunity. If this plan is followed for a generation or so North Carolina will have a well-educated citi zenship that can coni|x*te on equal terms with that of any state or country. — litaulorl Xews. Professional Begging Rampapt Professional begging has always been practiced by a few |>eople. Now, amid the real need for food and clothing, when thousands are forced to beg to live* the, professional is on the job everywhere. It is important for those who are asking alms to get the endorsement of reliable people before going out to the publitv. Many worthy |x*ople are turned away because' of the imposition of the unworthy. A few professionals have passed through this sec lion during the past few_inonths, who have picked up sizeable sums from people who*fear to turn them away, thinking them worthy. One particular instance of this kind was a dilapi dated looking woman, who claimed to have had all her belongings destroyed by lire. She was being taken around by a .young mail in a. car, whyVvidently was getting half of the proceeds. The needy beggar may be one of the best citizens that we meet, but the professional beggar is an enemy to sot iety and should Ik* required to show evidence of both his nehl and worthiness. • .
