Changes Pension Law Made Public The last Legislature made cer tain changes in the pension laws, which become effective later in this year. A Confederate veteran who is totally blind or who has been paralyzed, and is totally dis abled as a result, will hereafter draw $420 per year, payable monthly through the office of the clerk of Superior court, instead of $300 per year as has been the case. All other Confederate veterans now on the pension roll, or who are eligible for pension under the general pension law, will draw $1 per day, payable semi-annually. The first payment will be made in December of this year and the second in June, 1928. The marriage date was also changed. A widow in order to be eligible for pension must have been married prior to January 1, 1880, but widows now on the pen sion roll by reason of some prev ious statutes will not be taken off. Class A widows who are blind in both eyes or totally helpless and confined to the house will re ceive $300 per year, and all other widows the sum of $100. Except as mentioned the general pension law has not been changed, the property qualification continuing to remain in the law. The legislature appropriated for the year beginning July 1, 1927, $500,000 for the widows and $900,000 for the Confederate vet erans. For the year beginning July 1, 1928 $500,000 is approp riated for the widows and $600, 000 for the veterans. DERSONALC I Horn* folks you know Q on tne go.

WHITE COLLAR “BANDITS" HARD HIT BY NEW LAW IN BRITISH PARLIAMENT (By International News Service.) London.—“White collar b a n dits” and “dynamiters,” or “share pushers” as they are known in England, will not have a good time in Britain when the Gov ernment passes its new Act of Parliament to frustrate their acti vities. One of the chief clauses of the Act is the prohibition of house to house offers of shares • for sub scription. It is also made unlawful to invite, endeavor, or induce any member of the public to subscribe for or purchase shares by oral solicitation. In addition, no written offers of stock can be made by share-hawkers and canvassers un less vital information is provided. The act is drawn so widely that fraud of this nature will be very difficult in the future. The penal ties also are very heavy. For a first offense a fine of $1,000 is pro vided and for a subsequent offense a fine of $2,500 and imprisonment for 12 months. The new measure is the direct result of a long continu ed and successful newspaper agi tation. Raleigh.—The perennial row be tween the town of Newton and the state highway commission over the location Of route 10 in Cataw ba county will reach the supreme court for the second time next week with the appeals from the 15th, and lfith judicial districts. The town of Newton is the ap pallant this time, and it is ask ing the high court to overrule Su perior Court Judge W. F. Herd . ing, who dissolved a temporary le straining order to prevent the highway commission from follow ing a route between Statesville and New designated by its engineers. The supreme court decision in the original “Newton case” last spring was a victory for the Catawba county capital and re I trained the rdnd builders from following a route that would have sent highway No. 10 around the northern outskirts of the town rather than by its courthouse door. Following that decision, the highway commission surveyed a new route which, while reaching •the ,courtho tse at Newton, pro posed to follow a course some dis tance north of the existing high way in passing between that town and Statesville.
