It is wise to force a popular refer endum on such a question at this time and project the State into a campaign in which efforts would be made to have the people line up in two sharply divided camps, "for the veterans" and "against the veterans"? And could North Carolina afford bond issues of $100 million for the veterans, another $50 million for school buildings and $200 mil lionor even $100 million as the Senate bill provides for the Scott rural roads program? Too many bonds and too many bond issues are proposed. Char lotte Observer. Former Prisoner Here Gets Nine Years In Virginia RICHMOND Va. (UP) Kenneth B. Scheetz, whom police said ad mitted 25 safecracking jobs in Vir ginia, the Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee, entered State Prison Tuesday to begin nearly nine years behind bars. Scheetz, a 28-year-old Norfolk man, pleaded guilty in Newport News Corporation Court yesterday to opening a coal company safe that yielded $9,965. He was sentenced to five years on charges of grand larceny and housebreaking, and must also serve three and a half years of a former sentence from which he had been paroled. Newport News Detective Capt. W. F. Peach said Scheetz admitted the coal company robbery, plus 16 safecrackings in North Carolina, four in Georgia, several in South Carolina and Tennesse and at least two others In Virginia. Scheetz was accused of the $60. 000 safecracking of the Cas Walker grocery warehouse in Knoxville, Tenn,, but Peach said he would not be prosecuted there. Detainer war rants for him have been received from several North Carolina towns and from Bradley County. Tenn , but no action will be taken in view of the prison sentence. Peach said. Scheetz and Robert Brady. Jr., reported as wanted for robberies in seven states, were arrested by State Highway Patrolman Pritchard Smith, Jr.. as he was main taining a highway watch for an other man January 23. They were lodged in Haywood County jail at Waynesville, under custody of Ma con County officers. Officers who grilled the two for 10 days said the Virginia men ad mitted staging a $60,000 burglary in Knoxville via chartered plane from Washington, D. C. Scheetz and Brady were quoted as saying they timed the operation and found that Scheetz emerged with cash, checks and U. S. war bonds 11 minutes after entering the grocery warehouse. Officers from a number of slates converged in Wayncsvilel to ques tion the two men. 'Infant Care Government Book, Available Now The Government publication. "Infant Care," has become a "best seller".
