A "Nuisance Tax"
Supports Education
Durinsr the last SaiAn sf mu T am.

By Ulking long and loud about these
terrible "nuisance taxes," aiid per
haps by other means, they pursuaded
the Legislature. whiVVi wo
F " VVIIOIUCI
ing taxes on luxuries as a means of
supporting our puoiic schools, to levy
fifteen-cent State-wide property
tax instead. On nf thooa tvU
luxuries, which those opposed to them
insisted on calling a "nuisance tax,"
was a tax on cigarettes. But in some
other states the Legislators were not
so easily persuaded, and were not
ingntenea Dy the word "nuisance."
One of these state was Ohio, which
levied a "nuisance tatc" on cigarettes
.or the support of the public schools.
In that State the tax is called simply
"the State cigarette tax." We find
a report about the actual workings
of this tax in School and Society, a
national educational
4.
cording to this report this State ci
garette tax has contributed the funds
neces;ary to maintain the public
school system of Ohio. The following
paragraphs show just how:

"Total payments from the State

up to and including August 11, were
$3,110,142.44. Durinir th aamo
riod of 1931 total payments from the
State treasury for school aid were
$2,693,331.75,"
These ficrures aro aiitrppstivo Tknv

fifteen-cent property tax yields in
North Carolina. Further, the amount

call a "nuisance tax" on just one com.

enabled that state to support her

And if Ohio has done this, why not
North Carolina? Of course we must

a population of 6,646,697, and North
Carolina 3,170,276. A State cigarette

only half as much as in Ohio. But
there are other so-called "nuisance
taxes'' which are as easily collected
and which would go to make up an
eyen larger sum than the cigarette tax
in Ohio. Let it be known that these
taxes are for support of schools and

Improvement Noted
In All Classes Of
Trade In Carolinas
Richmond. Va.. Oct. 3. Reports of
"defiinite imorovement in nearly all
classes of business" in the Carolinas
in August were released today by the
Fifth District Federal Reserve bank
here in its district summary for Au
gust and September.
"Although there was no marked in
crease in the total volume of business
transacted in the Fifth Federal Re
serve d strict in August some seasonal
increases in special lines were noted,
and several barometers of trade show
more than a mere seasonal rise, the
ummary said.
"Definite improvement in nearly all
classes of business is reported from
the Carolinas, where cotton and to
bacco play a more prominent part
than in other sections."
Continuing, the summary said, "the
textile situation improved more than
any other industry last month."
"Higher cotton prices as a result pf
a much smaller crop than in recent
years" stimulated buying of textiles
"quite materially," it was noted and
cotton consumption increased "more
than seasonally in August."
Mills took on more employes and
orders were received in August "in
sufficient volume to run the mills
several weeks."
Retail trade as reflected in depart
ment stores, in spite of very unfavor
able weather for early fall trade, was
up to seasonal level and wholesale
trade showed seasonal gaini in all
lines for which data are available.
"In agriculture," the report says
"the outstanding developments last
month were rises i.i cotton and to
bacco prices."
Prevalence of severe d roughs in
some small scattered sections of Vir
ginia and Maryland nre rer;rted but
the dryness came late in the summer
and is not as devasitating as was the
state-wide Virginia drought in 1930.
The general summary ends in op
timistic language as follows : r
"Taking the district as a whole,
the outlook for fall and winter trade
appears definitely better than it was
a year ago, and for the first time
ince the beginning of tho depression
there is a spirit of optimism in trade
circles." ' ' ! '

Mountaineers Set
To Beat Asheville
Friday Afternoon
Mountaineers Out For Du
plication Of Last Years
Feat. Trounce Sylva
39-0
Coach Weatherby and his Mountain
eers have about rounded out ifinal
training for what is considered the
hardest battle of the season which will
bf, played against the Asheville high
school team at Asheville Friday after
noon. The Mountaineers have put in a
week of hard work in smoothing out
the few wrinkles that were found in
the Sylva game here last Friday when
the local pig-skin carriers trounced
the visitors for a 39-0 figure in a game
which was never in doubt victory for
the Weatherby team.
Rumors drifting here from the
mountain metropolis is that the Ma
roons are a bit uneasy about the affair
that is scheduled to take place Friday
afternoon, and they have settled down
to steady work to try to get revenge
fOr th( laRhiniJ- th f Annlo innfi.-
. r .'.wuitMtniccia save
them last year. On the other hand the
mountaineers are determined to re
peat last year's transaction with the
"big boys."
The Svlva team cof off K,
start here Friday by fumbling the
ball on three different occasions im
mediately after the initial kickoff.
They lacked the power and drive to
crash th Mountaineer line, and were
unable to get through to the Waynes
ville backs who carried the ball like
veterans of old. Bridges, Reeves,
Captain Wyatt, Davis and Khune, all
starred in the game, and were sup
ported on the line by the outstanding
playing of Murray, and Davis, with
Patton coming in for some nice tack
les. In the last quarter Coach Weatherby
sent in his second team and they were
marching steadily toward a touch
down when the lnal whistle blew.
A large crowd of local fans was
on hand to witness tha game and lend
their support to the team, but were
at no time uneasy as to who woul
be holding the big end of the score
from the very first play.
The lineup was as follows:

Wear A Forget-Me-Not
"Wear a forget-me-not." With these
words on their lips, volunteer workers
will be on the streets of Waynesville
Saturday urging civic-minded citizens,
who have not forgotten their wartime
promises, to wear the little blue dow
er of remembrance.
The Forget-Mc-Not Day Drive is
being conducted by the Disabled Amer
ican Veterans of the World War, com
monly known as the "I, A." Funds
are raised by this method in order to
enable the local chapter to take care of
emergency relief problems among dis
abled World War veterans, and to help
in maintaing a full-time Rehabilitation
Officer, who serves as a special advo
vate for those World War veterans
who maintain that their disabilities
.. eve caused by military service.
Many high school girls and grade
school students are assisting in this
campaign.
The D. A. V. is distinctive from oth
er service organizations in that its
membership is composed exclusively
of those World War veterans who saw
active service before November 11th,
It) 18, and who were either wounded,
gassed or disabled during or by rea
son of such military service; it is es
pecially interested in their welfare,
and concentrates all of its energies
to protect and to advance their in
terests. ......
Wearing a forget-me-not Saturday
will not only serve as a symbol that
the wearer has not forgotten the su
preme sacrifice which was made by
those men who did not return, but will
al.o serve the more practical purpese
of serving those who did return, but
who have been handicapped by reason
' disabilities incurred.
Fieldmice Destroy Many
.Thousands of Dollars
Worth of Property
For a supply of green, leafy veg
ct ibles this fall and winter the year-
round gardener must make final
Hastings this month.'
"Collads and turnips are the most
popular of these vegetables but for
variety a few other crops such as
kale, spinach, broncoli salad, and
tendergreen should be added to the
nlantingsj" says E.B; Morrow, ex
tension horticulturist at State Col
!ege. "The last two mentioned are
hew additions to our list of green, but
are proving popular with growers and
consumers."
Plantings of kale, broccoli, and ten
dergreen should be made early in Sep
tember and again about the latter
part of the month or early in October,
rtates Mr. Morrow. These plantings
will furnish a leafy vegetable for the
greater part of the fall and winter
and will also give a welcome change
to the diet
"While spinach is not as popular
with Southern gardeners as the other
greens, it is probably the tenderest of
U and should have a place in every
-arden," says Mr. Morrow.
Th first planting of this rrop
should be made early in September
with another planting about the first
of October. The Virginia Savoy va-j

Texas G. O. P. Plans
Drive For Control
Forth Worth, Texas. The Texas
Republican trap for disgruntled Dem
ocrats has been baited with a 60-year-old,
square-shouldered business man,
Orville Bullington, who aspires to the
Governorship of Texas.
Many voters are ready to walk with
heads high into the Republican trap
next November. Graciously admitting
the qualities of Mrs. Miriam A. Fer
guson's canned peaches they stubborn
ly deny that any good could come out
of another Ferguson regime.
The apparent nomination of "Ma,"
wife of James E. (Pa) Ferguson, im
peached as governor of the state, has
left many Democrats in a daze, others
in consternation, and political pro
phets puzzled. Her lead over Gov,
Ross S. Sterling, her opponent for
the nomination, was about 3,800 votes.
STRONG CAMPAIGN
Texas Republicans were quick to
see possibilities of breaking political
fences. Ihey planned to assail Dem
ocratic fortresses .with the strongest
campaign ever made.
Ihey admit, however, the name of
John N. Garner on the national Dem
ocratic ticket, will prevent many vot
ers from deserting orthodox paths.
Bullington, an independent oil op
erator, for many years paid political
homage at the Democratic shrine
along with his Tennessee forbearers.
In 1919 the Underwood tariff caused
him to sever party allegiance. The
youthful admirer of Andrew Jackson
turned Republican.
CLASSED AS DRY
He is generally classed ais a "dry"
personally, although he is definitely
committed to the national Republican
platform on the liquor issue.
Aligned with the Texas G. O. P.
forces are many Hoovercrats of the
ImS vintage, most of th ;m prohibi
tionists who read hopo in the Hoover
Curtis platform. .
To win in thP general election in
November, Texas Republicans will
have to poll about 100,000 more votes
than Texais gave Hoover in 1928, pro
viding Mrs. Ferguson maintains her
voting strength of the primary elec
'.ion. .- .
Plant At This Time For
Greens In The Winter
With the damage by field mice and
other rodents to orchards in North
Carolina running into thousands . of
''ollar.f annually, fruit growers should
take steps at once to control these
pests.
"AH orchards should be inspected at
intervals during tha fall and winter
months to determine if these rests
are present in destructive numbers,"
says A. Oman, rodent control spe
cialist at State College. "This can
readily be determined by looking for
the openings determined which are
the home of the mice.
Since thes3 pests feed at night or
on very dark days it is impossible to
see them unless the tunnels are
plowed up and it is necessary to make
close inspectaon of all orchards.
According to Mr. Oman, there i

Mr. Morrow states that it is now
a little late for most root crops ( but
that early varieties of turnips such as
White Milan, Purple Top Strap Leaf

be planted once each week up to with
