The 1S47 Highway Safety Act is under fire from two .flanks in the General Assembly; Developments jttils week point to the House as the battie-grouna wnere wemoior ve hicle Inspection program must fight for survival. At the same time that SB 59, approved by the Senate af ter a sharp debate to provide fir reduction in the number of animal Inspections frdm two to one per year, was on its way to the House on Friday, an Identical measure, PB 180, was being introduced in the lower chamber. Furthermore, if the sentiment revealed by sever al representatives on Raleigh radio programs in- the past two weeks is ah accurate ' straw in the wind, there is a strong movement afoot In the House for complete repeal, proposed three weeks ago in HB 5. HB 171, introduced this week, at tacks the 1?47 driver's, license re examination; Iaw It would require persons holding licenses 'prior to July 1, 1947, to secure renewal licenses without examination by January 1, 1950, and would continue simple renewal every four years. Regulation ofmotor vehicles be ing towed la the object of HB 164 as Introduced on Thursday to re quire that such vehicle - be oc cupied, by a driver and be equip ped with brakes. Roads: The Governor's recommendation that the gasoline tax be increased one cent to help pay for the pro posed $200,000,000 bond issue for secondary roads was submitted to both nouses in bill form on Friday! The bills, SB 79 and HB 181,tio not provide for a conditional -increase, sq that this revenue would be avail able for road purposes even if the bond issue Is -not approved. scnoois ana xeacnen: - The flurry of bills designed to raise teacher's salaries and ' give . State aid to counties for schoql building construction lias abated. The three identical bills fixing tea cher; principal and superintendent Salaries for the 1948-49 Softool term at the minimum recommfflJed by the State Education Commission ire still resting in the Joint Appro priations Committee. So the school picture is still blurred, and will re main so until the committees finish theli' deliberations. Public Welfare and the Family: -From time to time mental defect ives committed to state Institutions are refuse or delayed in obtaining admission. ..When the persons' re sponsible for their upkeep are un able to pay for their support during jpiia waiting period the county must mu3t bear the cost. HB 182, lntrr 'duced Friday, proposes to have the State reimburse the counties at the rate of $2 per day plus actual taedical and hospital expenses in curred in supportingthese persons between time of commitment nrt admission. The companion bills designed to have the State take over from the counties assistanoe to the needy be . tween 16 and 65 are both in the hands of Appropriations Committ ees, not because they actually ap propriate - money, but .rather be cause the policy they set and the machinery they provide will even tually demand that State money be spent. SB 43, the bill that would give contributing governments a lien against real property of Old Age Assistance recipients seems to have struck a snag in the Senate Public Welfare Committee. HB 43 was ratified Feb. 1. Henry Stevens, III Enters Law School Henry Stevens, III, son of Judge and Mrs. Henry L.

GAYLE Symbol of Love Is Symbol of Gloves, j ft k Xla Bookmobile Schedule In Duplin "Gloves for Love" are a tra ditional gift, dating back to the time when knighthood was in flower and the soldier wore his lady's glove on his helmet in battle as a sign of his devotion. Since then, a gift of gloves has become a symbol of loyalty and affection. The exchange of fine leather gloves on Valentine's Day is therefore i;omething old as well as something new in gift ideas. In keeping with the sentimen tal significance of Valentine's Day, American-made leather gloves have a tradition of wear ability and fine workmanship. New designs that follow the new look in fashion make a gift of gloves a gift of beauty as well as one that will endure. Valnntino'olnvpq for women come in a variety of colors and styles this spring. Lush glove colors include cherry pink, sun bronze, carib green, and exotic lemon. These colors provide dra matic accents for dark costumes, so the buyer of gift gloves for his lady need not worry about "matching" her outfits. Left above are shown American-made doeskin four button classics. Dressed up with faggot ing, they are a suitable symbol of affection. Pigskins, glaces (capeskins) and doeskins come in all lengths for casual, day and evening wear, with the shortie making the big news for spring, and very long favored for evening. Appropriate "Gloves for Love" are those gloves shown right qknitn Thfl aro Amriran.maHf doeskin gauntlets with tiny gold en hearts decorating the cull. Even the classic pigskin has a hew romantic look with slender styling and new colors. For the King, as well as the Queen of Hearts, there are "Gloves for Love" in fine moch as, capeskins and pigskins a gift of sentiment for Valentine's Day. The men's gloves shown above are lightweight American-made capeskin with contrasting hand stitching and trim. They come in new spring colors wine, grey, green aed cream. Buttons at the wrist make them a comfort able fit. If size is a problem, a gift cer tificate for gloves will surmount the difficulty. tHp n.mkmnhile service in Dup lin County has been growing so steadiiv lhat almost every trip lies brought on changes and adjust ments in schedule. The uncertain weather of ,the next few months mieht prevent the Bookmobile mi.k ing some of its regular trips, but the County Librarian, Miss Dorothv Wightman, believes that most of the schedule can be kept regularly each month through the spring tuid summer. There will be more stops added from time to time but the main outline of routes will be veVy much the same.

The farmer who condemns cities because of narrow streets and blind alleys may have a similar traffic hazard riaht in his own front yard savs Lacv Weeks, County Agent for State College Extension Ser vice. Mr. Weeks refers to tne tarm driveway, which he says, is a blind alley of weeds on many farms. 'More than one-third of our tarm accident victims are motor vehicle mishaps," he said. Mr. Weeks recommends the fol lowing procedure in building a safe driveway: 1. Park the car in the driveway with the front bumper ten feet from the-nearest edge of tne pav? ment or traveled portion of the highway; 2. Measure a distance of 700 fee' along the highway to the left and place a marker at the edge tf the pavement or traveled portion on the side nearest the driveway en trance: 3. In the same manner set an other marker 700 feet in the oppo site direction but this second mark er should be on the side of the highway opposite the driveway en trance; 4. Sit in the driver's seat of the car. If the markers can be seen, the sight distances are proper if the traffic going by the farm does not exceed 60 miles per hour. If the markers cannot be seen, then weeds, bushes, and other obstruct ions must be cleared away to maki the driveway safe. If a heavy, slow-starting truck will be using , the driveway, the markers should be set 830 feet away in each direction instead of 700 feet. Mr. Weeks called attention to the fact that a highway right-of-way is usually 66 feet in width. If it is necessary to trim bushes or remove obstructions on this right-of-way, the matter should be taken up with the highway official under whose jurisdiction it falls, lie said. Hot Ashes Can Cost Plenty This is the season when hot ashes cost the nation plenty in cold cash. Mr. Weeks said this week. More that 11 million dollars is lost cael, year in fires caused by carelessness with hot ashes and coals he de clared. With the country's fire los ses at an all-time hifjli there is no excuse for such waste, lie suggested four fire safety rules for use during February and March: 1. Never empty hot ashes or coals into wooden, cardboard or flammable containers. Use, instead, a metal trash ban-el. preferably of the lid type. 2. Keep the area around stoves or fireplace free of all combustiHe material. 3. Be sure an Underwriter's' - ap proved fire exIiriKiiMier ol the type designed lo put oul coal or oil fire-, is handy. Always use a lire screen in front of the fireplace to prevent sparks from escaping into the room. Good habits of fire safety should be taught each member ol the fam ily, the county agent said, because "tending the fire" has become everybody's job in spite of modern inventions which have made many parts of I be job automatic.
