DELLINGER RALEIGH, Feb. 17.—The leg islature is malfing unusual pro gress and as a matter of fact should be able to adjourn Febru ary 27th. However, there are <some who think new matters may come up that will prolong the session to the full sixty days or more. No one can tell what will be done until the adjournment is actually reached Much legislation is being en acted but most of it is amenda tory of former acts of the legis lature and not 30 much outstand ing acts are being passed. There will be material changes in the Workman's Compensation laws. A bill just reported favorably by the Committee on Insurance to increase the maximum pay total disability from $18.00 per week to $21.00. Under the present law a man making $50 00 per week cannot draw more than $18.00 per week. The law pro vides for the payment of sixty per cent, of the average weekly wage but limits the amount as above. A person making $7.00 to $10.00 per week would under the sixty per cent basis would get less than $7.00 but the law makes it not less than $7.00 nor more than $18.00 as it now stands. The bill adding $2.00 to court costs for all convicted of crime to make up the officers’ retire ment fund for the payment of officers’ families in case of death in the discharge of duty has pass ed and has become law. This fund has been of great benefit to many widows of officers killed in making arrests. This act of the legislature is highly commended by all who have had experience with officers and courts gener ally. The local representatives has a full day mapped out for Thurs day. At eight-thirty he is in vited and will have breakfast at the Governor’s Mansion with the affable J. Melville Brough ton. Governor and family. Next full day’s session. Then at two o’clock leaving the capitol by U. S. cars and busses for Chapel Hill to witness a demonstration •by the U. S. NaVy Pre-Flight ! S.-hool followed tj- a dipMr at ti» expense cf :h; Government and then at.ctr.ir enterTainibeT.t foi two hours. After the entire afternoon and evening entertain ment a bus ride back to the Cap itol. It will be remembered that the state has one of the largest and most interesting schools of the kind in the United States and it is using a great part of the campus and buildings and equip ment of the University of the State. The General Assembly complet ed Tuesday a passage of a Reso lution inviting Madam Chiang Kai-Shek to visit Raleigh and address the Legislature at her convenience while in the United States. A suitable committee by both Houses has been appointed to extend the invitation and to receive and introduce her. Tt will be remembered that she is one of the most prominent per sonages in the world and comes from the head of the Government in the great Chinese Empire. Her father was and is well known in North Carolina and she has often expressed the desire to visit the state. The Senate has finally passed a bill naming a State Bird. The cardinal is now the state bird so far as our State Senate is con cerned. It is our guess that the House of Representatives will follow suit and we will for the first time in our history have a state bird as many other states have. A few years agtit the leg islature designated the tom tit but as soon as it was realized what was done the Act was re pealed by the same session. We notice that the representa tive from Cleveland County has introduced a bill to amend the charter of the Town of Kings Mountain. The principal feature in the bill being- to change the designation from “Town" to “City.” It is a little far-fetched in appearance as such action could hardly make a city out of a country town.
