fill ROSE HILL NEWS By Miu Bessie F. Johnson Kitchen Shower | 4 kitchen shower was giv en on Friday night for the fam ily of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Tea chey, whose ten-room residence hear the school building was 'recently burned. Although most of the heavy furniture ifrom the front of the house was saved there wasn’t any thing saved from the kitchen. The family is at home in the residence formerly occupied by the late Dr. Hatcher and now owned by Mr. Teachey. It was here that the shower was giv en. W. M. S. Meets The Rosa Hocutt Circle of the Woman’s Missionary Soci ety of the Rose Hill Baptist church, met in the home of Mrs. Hatch Lanier Wednesday evening at three o’clock. Mrs. J. E. Pope, Circle Chairman, presided. There were twelve member^ and three visitors present. The program “Lifting the banner of the Cross” was in harge of Mrs. Dan Heath, i’hose who took an active part !n the program were Mrs. L. M. Dew, Mrs. Martha Scott, Mrs. J. A. Teachey, Mrs. W. I. Rouse, Mrs. Arthur Ward, ilrs. J. E. Pope, Mrs. Cyrus Moore, Mrs. D. E. Evans and Miss Alice Rouse. After the program, Mrs. Sal louse and Mrs. W. L. Rouse tfrved a delicious salad course dth coffee and cakes. | The Valentine motif was sug gested in the refreshments. 1 /substitute measure J(Continued from Page One) view to making additions to he bill, ^even if its sales tax ’eature is retained. Dr. R. W.. McDonald, a for er member of the Salem Col ege faculty, had been in con ference with numerous Brain flusters. The committee was mpressed with the serious 98 with which he and his :onferees went about their ob. . , While the McDonaldf-Lump tin substitute proposes to elim inate the sales tax, it would ike in a wide sweep of terri tory. For instance, its one fourth of one per cent license tax on merchants and its fran chise provisions would hit the! crchants without their being kble to pass on the tax as they Jlo under the sales tax, and for that reason the measure is be ing used as an argument ag ainst the contentions of the nerchants that the sales tax |s iniquitous. Governor Ehr ghaus was prompt to accept Ihe challenge, declaring that pme form of sales tax is in evitable. As a matter of fact |he sponsors of the new bill haven’t gotten away from the tales tax, but they made some headway. Under the franchise tax pro visions, the corporations would ]>ay more tax under the Mc )onald-Lumpkin bill, but its |ponsors contend that they rould still pay less than they lid prior to the removal of the fctate ad valorem tax in 1931. he bill strikes into new tern ary in its license taxes on |hain service stations jind its en per cent levy on revenue of heatres in excess of a thou and dollars a month. It in eases occupational taxes al io as well as putting a tax of lix per cent on the dividends laid by corporations and in |reasing the taxes on insurance upanies. So much has been said about ranchise taxes that some mem rs of the Legislature asked pr an explanation. They were pld that a franchise tax is a for the right of doing bus less. It is based on the count of business done, but 'gets away from the idea of come It is in fact a substi te for an income tax, and |s form is made necessary if ther increases are made by son of the fact that the ate Constitution limits in ome taxes to six per cent, ranchise taxes are already le ,in North Caro’ina, and substitute proposes only to Increase them. The same de is used in New York and her states, and has been up by the Supreme Court of *£ United States. The idea the franchise tax is the ae as .that behind the income -to get the money where moneys. While the McDonald-Lumpkin revenue bill provoked much discussion, the finance commit tee giving it serious consider ation, it does not follow that it will be adopted by the Leg islature. There will be modi fication in the Administration bill, but the function of the substitute will be to provide means of chinking the holes in the appropriations bill. The appropriations committee has voted to give the University the increase of $300,000 asked for, the committee is committed to a proposition for increasing teachers’ salaries, and there is a movement on the Legislature to give an increase of 15 per cent in wages paid workers. All of these increases mean that more revenue must be provid ed. While the Legislature is get ting ready to go into a huddle on the revenue and appropria tions bills, it is also getting proposals to submit amend ments to the State Constitu tion. One of these would per mit classification of property for taxation purposes. This proposal was defeated at the polls in 1928. Another consti tutional amendment on the way to the Legislature would give the General Assembly author ity to renovate the court sys tem of the State. There will be others, but so far there has developed tittle sentiment in favor of reviving the proposals to submit the revamped Con stitution as prepared by a com mission last year. The Legislature is going to be more carefull about tabling bills without discussion in the future. The photographers of the state prepared a bill set ting up standards, held a con vention, discussed it, and then had the bill introduced. Capt. A. O. Clement, of Goldsboro, a high minded man, elected pre sident of the association, went to the House to hear the bill discussed. Instead of discus sing it, the House voted to ta ble it.. He was so shocked that he suffered a heart attack and came near to dying on the floof of the House. Repentant leg islators later called the bill bhck. Hereafter they will be more considerate of bills. As is usually the case, the Senate is further along with I its business than is the House. It has already passed a sta tute regulating the driving of automobiles, it has voted to provide a three million dollar emergency fund for highways, it has passed a bill giving sher iffs the right to make arrests Of felons in other counties than their own, it passed numerous other statutes, that have not yet even been called up in the House. One reason for its. more speedy action is its small ness. Another is it has more veterans. The Hill State alcohol con trol bill is due to come up this week, and the Palmer beer bill is expected to be reported out. There is so far no great inter est in either bill. The Legis lature may possibly increase the alcoholic content of beer but it is doubtful. There is now little likelihood that it will submit a prohibition referen dum to the voters. CO.-WIDE CONFERENCE (Continued from Page 1) instructional service but will likewise assist greatly in solv ing many problems in student discipline. The County Superintendent announced April 5th as the date for observing the county-wide Seventh Grade Educational Rally. An elaborate program based on character education is being worked out for the oc casion. The usual entertainment fea ture of the program was pre sented by the Kenansvijle H. S. which consisted of an in teresting “Get Acquainted” contest and a musical stunt. MAILING OUT CHECK§ (Continued from Page One) grower surrendered to the pool. Later, the remainder of the money will be divided among the growers on a pro rata basis according to the number of cer tificates they have in the pool. The unsold 1934 certificates will also be prorated among the growers and may be ex changed for 1935 tax-exemption certificates. In this way, Sheffield explain ed, each grower will receive approximately four cents a pound for the amount of his V -■> — ... .... ..... • .. certificates which were sold and will have opportunity to make use of the unsold certificates this year. In the first batch of checks, the national pool is distributing $11,600,000 to 400,000 growers in 17 of the 18 cotton states who surrendered certificates covering 1,210,000 bales of lint cotton, Sheffield said.

COMPLETE DIET NEEDED BY PLANTS FOR GROWTH As a result of incessant ex periment over the past several years, soil scientists and others interested in better crops for Southern farmers, are pointing out today that crops are just as needful of a completely bal anced ration as children. It has long been known that a plant is unable to make a healthy growth on nitrogen alone. There must be potash. There must be phosphate. Now it is being shown by the au thorities that these three fac tors, considered all-important in the past, must be supple mented by a large number of the rarer elements—the so-cal led impurities such as iodine, calcium, magnesium, stronti um, boron, lithium, sodium and many others. Emphasizing the importance of the impurities, the well known publication Scientific American, which deals with scientific discoveries and ad vancements, declared, “a pure food and drug act for plants would be a death warrant to all living creatures.” Chilean Nitrate of Soda advertising which appears regularly in this newspaper, dwells upon the vi-, tal impurities which, because of its natural origin, this old original soda contains. Th« importance of these impurities, in the growth and development of plants, is compared with that of the various vitamins in the growth and development of people and animals. Snow Costs Money New York.—The cost of snow removal to the city of New York since the storm of January 23 has amounted to $4,000,000.
