C., under the act of Congress of March 3, 1879,___ Friday, March 1, 1935 Wanted: Volunteer Tax Payers The North Carolina legislature is offering a big re ward for volunteer tax payers. The legislature is es pecially anxious to hear from income tax payers, cor porations, land owners, buyers of meat, flour, and all other people who feel willing to come forward and help to keep up the schools and other governmental nec essities. So far not a volunteer has appeared. It is strikingly strange that folks despise to pay taxes for worth-while things and yet do not seem to mind throwing their money away for things that are Df no profit. , The members of the legislature need not expect any body of any kind nor any business of any kind to come forward and willing offer themselves 100 per cent for the government. Now' that it is certain the taxes cannot be gotten from volunteers, the lawmakers might just as well go after the needed tax money from those who can pay. Too Much Experience Hitler will find financing his war program from the pockets of foreign suckers will not work as well as it did in the late World War, when bankers and private individuals poured their millions into the Kaiser's treasury and were paid off in spurious marks. No nation has ever before succeeded in maintain ing her war chest from the pockets of her enemies as successfully as Germany did in the World War. We W'ere told by the big American bankers that Germany was a great country and that the Germans were smart people, that her marks would go above par very soon after peace was declared, and the folks poured tfieir money into the German coffers. Now the people in general have had too much sad experience to bite Hitler ; hook. A Decision To Be Studied Designing schemers sometimes have clauses put in to the laws of the country which they know will ulti mately mean an undue advantage to them and will give them rights in the courts that will be a public detriment. In the Alabama power decision handed down last week, the judge was very liberal in saying in sub stance that the government had a perfect right to turn over to the Alabama Power and Light Company the water power—that is, the rivers which were designed for the use of man, beast and bird, as well as the fishes and the flowers—yet they have been turned over to a small fraction of the folks to be used as a monopoly. That seems to have been all right with Federal Judge Grubb. Yet when the government undertakes to put in use some of the waters of its eminent domain for the common use and good ol its citizens, then such power is denied by the judge. Such decisions should be studied by people who cherish freedom. This decision says, in effect, that if the government creates power, it must sell it to the Alabama I’owei and Light Company, or some other company, and let them deal it out. Senator Moses May Have Been Right Senator Moses may have been right in part when he called some of the members of the United States Senate the "sons of wild jackasses. Too many of them seem to be interested in the matter of patronage, that is, getting a few voting and vote-getting friends on the Federal pay roll, rather than standing up like men for the great principles of true democracy. Too many Senators, that is, several, seem to have forgotten everything but business and to have fallen in love with big business. They think if big business loses a few thousand dollars, it will be a terrible thing. They are willing for big business to do two things: First, fix its own profits and, second, to let business say just how much a laborer may eat and how much clothes he shall wear. We need more men in the Senate of the United States that love men more than they do business. Cheaper Than Jail Bertie Ledger-Advance It is to be hoped that this legislature will keep in mind the fact that it costs only $90 of the taxpayers money to keep a boy in school a year, and hat it costs $300 to keep a person in jail a year. With this fact uppermost in their minds, we fail to see why they will not, as a lawmaking body, give the public schools an even break, decide to pay the teachers at least as much as Capitol City janitors, and truck drivers, and thereby put some spark of encouraging hope and light in the hearts of those who are doing their best to car ry on schoolwork each day in overcrowded classrooms. It would be fine if all institutions and professions had held up as well to standards and high traditions and responsbilities as the teaching profession has in the past few years of stress and strain.__ For Better Foods, Cheaper Groceries, and Service With a Smile, Let YELLOW FRONT MARKET Serve You FOOD SALE - FRIDAY — SATURDAY — MONDAY ORANGES Full cf J uicr PEC K 47c Full Cream CHEESE '?1c Pound “* SUGAR cWck 10 lbs. 49c 100 lbs. $4.60 Ballard's Special Offer 12 LB.
