The sole purpose of this amend
ment, then, would be to authorize
'the General Assembly to provide
i for the election of more than one
judge in such judicial districts
; as it might determine to be desir
i able.
Chapter 393 of the Sessions
Laws of 1949 will submit to pop
ular vote next November a pro
posal to rewrite Section 10 of Ar
ticle IV of the Constitution to read
as follows:
1 “Section 10. Judicial Districts
for Superior Courts. The General
Assembly shall divide the State
into a number of judicial districts
I which number may be increased
or reduced and shall provide for
the election of one or more Su
perior Court judges for each dis
trict. There shall be a Superior
Court in each county at least
twice in each year to continue
for such time in each county as
may be prescribed by law.”
The proposed amendment rela
tive to additional superior court
judges will be submitted in the
following form:
“( ) For permitting the Gen
eral Assembly to prescribe the
number of regular Superior Court
judges in each judicial district,
provided each district has at least
one.
< ) Against permitting the
General Assembly to prescribe the
number of regular Superior Court
judges in each judicial district,
provided each district has at least
one.”

A recent study by State College
rural sociologists shows that al
; most one out of every three rural
! household heads in Eastern North
[Carolina earns his living by some
means other than farming. This,
say the sociologists, indicates a
trend toward fewer farming fam
ilies and a gradually decreasing
proportion of farmers in the total
rural population.
