THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1934 THE WAYXESVILLE MOUNTAINEER THROUGH STATE CAPITAL KEYHOLES By: Bess Hinton Silver . Expanding Raleigh politicians see in Congress man R. L. Doughton's decision to go afield outside his own district to make campaign speeches this fall fur ther indication of his desire to occupy the red leather chair in the southwest office of the State Capitol after Gov rnor Ehringhaus vacates it. Mr. Doughton has not made a habit of anipaigning outside his own play ing field in the past. Some of the dopers-out think he wants to become personally acquainted with more of the natives in preparation for his primary campaign in 1936. Juicy Hum The grapevine reports here that Barber Towler. of Raleigh, has noti fied Chas. H. Robertson that he will resign his post with the Internal Revenue Department, of which Mr. Robertson is head man in North Car olina. Towler was one of the many -employes of the office who were forced to move from Raleigh, to Greensboro when the Fourth District's ihw Con gressman Harold D Cooley was un able to prevent removal of the office to national committeeman C. L. Shup ing's home town. Mr. Towler'. res ignation will leave a .'!. i'.oo a year job open .for some promising lMm-crat. repeal the absentee ballot law and it is not at all certain ; hat the move ment will fail, especially as the law applies to primaries. The llKi;5 ses sion raised a lot of dust in its war on absentee voting but failed to get a State-wide repealer approved although many counties were exempted upon in sistence of their Senators and Kepie-sentatives. l it l or-Tat The General Assembly ha- been an nexing SI .000,00(1 each year from taxes paid by people who Use automobile.- and truck t'r genera!

Will you help to locate these tine, highly" flavored nut-s? The black walnut, and the scaly bark are the most highly flavored nuts known. Their commercial val ue has never been recognized, because of the inability of man to graft them in the past. This secret is now known; hence any unusually line nut can be .cpioduocd by grafting or budding from the tree it came from, just as is now done with fruits, fine groves of these superior nut trees will increase the farm wealth of the valley. Northern city markets pay many times more money for the unproved, supeiior nuts than for the hai'd-shclled. hard-lo crack kinds.

He said he received a note from a doomed Negro reading: "Dear 'Governor: I understand I am to be electrocuted Friday and here it is Tuesday yours' very truly." He did not disclose the man's name but said he granted the prisoner a thirty-day reprieve after receiving the pathetic note. Govern or Gardener was just that way, Proud George G. Scott director of the ac counts division of the State Revenue Department is as proud as a puppy with two tails these days and you will excuse him. His son, Randolph Scott, now a big-shot motion picture star in the Hollywood heavens, has been visiting "his old man" in Raleigh. Young Scott attended the University of North Carolina and became a pub lic accountant and entered business with his father who happens to hold C P. A, linces number one in North Carolina. That was before the lad's n;me made the. bright lights, of course.

Of the more than 800,000 holders of Bell System securi ties. 381,000 are women, 10,000 f whom are housewives; 90,000 are clerks and sales people; 30,000 are manual laborers; 115,000 are telephone workers. There are other thousands of doctors, lawyers, farmers and merchants. In fact, people in ery walk of life, many of wbom are doubtless your neigh bors and friends. Most of these folks are small investors. Eighty per cent own twenty-five or less shares f stock, while forty oer cent of the total own five shares or less. No one owns as much as one-fifth of one per cent of the outstanding stock of the Bell System. -. It is this vast at- - of small investors whose s-.ngs have financed the telephone business. Their savings have been at tracted to the telephone indus try because of their faith in the integrity of the management, and their confidence in the will ingness of the public to pay a price for the service that will allow earnings sufficient to as sure the best possible service at all times and to insure the continued financial lability of the business. niie id' Haywood'. le-peeied eiiirells the home ol' hi 'ilnii'i lliysun on !. bimeral se.v ii'es t t he I-' I lies ( ' ri'ek liaplist eluireh oil Friday with' inter ment in the cemetery there.
