Mayor Tak’ng No Part In Changing Of Town’s Charter (Continued from page one.) course, to any other man. “Wlvi'e I do not believe there t finy immediate and urgent deman to change the charter, and believ furthermore that changes should not be hastily. I do think that th ‘town cf Shelby' in the charted should be made to read ‘city oi Shelby* as it looks n little unesua1 for a town to be sel'ing $100.00' worth of bonds; some of the bom buyers mry be curious to know just hew large a “town’ Is," Mr. Dorsey said. Charter B:I! May Not Get By Leg:r!a':ure • Continued from pane one.) I suppose it moots with the apnrov nl of the citizens forwarding mo the first charter change bi'l. Unless t hear something more, or objections I suppose I will try to get the last bill made into a law revising U Charter. But that, you unde-:,land depends entirely upon whether o not the legislature has time to do anything about Ideal hills after the* get through with State measures.’' Mull Measures. Representative Mull lias been rather successful with the bills lie has introduced at the present term, not only with State measures he sponsored but also with local bills His bill amending the law for better prohibiten enforcement in Cleveland county has already been ratified. This bill provide that of ficers receive n $5 foe for all ar rests in cbnnecUon with the viola tion of the prohibition laws. Another Mull bill which has al ready been ratified is that :so amending the law about the solici tor of county court that it removes the county from any liability in paying the fees of the ; oltcitor in case the defendant does not. or can not. In other words the law now Is that the recorder s court solici tor does not get his $3.50 fee for conviction unless the defendant pays it. Which is to say that in cases where the convicted defend ant is sent to jail or the gang and does not pay the coats the count? will not have to pay the fee out of the county treasury us heretofore. No. 4 Township. Two recent bills introduced by Mr. Mull were to combine the Grov er and Kim s Mountain highway commissions and to permit prison er* of this county to be worked up on the roads of other counties. Neither of these bills may be rati fied. however, due to the fact that the legislature’ may adjourn before they are reached for final passage on the calendar. There are at p ent three road commlsstonsNin No. 4 Township. Mr. Mull explained, one at Kings Mountain, one at Grover, and one at • East Kings Mountain. To facilitate read work the bill was introduced to combine the Kings Mountain and Grover boards. Two Bl'N Boat Both of the Kings Mountain bills introduced by Representative Mull were reported unfavorably by the committees. These bills had to do with proposed bonds tin the town of Kings Mountain. •‘The legislature, in nry opinion, will adjourn in just about 10 days, Mr Mull said.

WiU S'mmcn* Run For Offce Again? Washington Star Contradicts Sen ator’s Own Statement That He Would. (H E. C. Bryant in Charlotte Observer.! Washington, March 8. — The Washington Star of today says that Senator Simmons is not expected to run for the senate next year. The Star is In error, for Senator Sim mons lias announced that he would be a candidate to succeed himself. The Star story reads: “The sen ator in the states of the old south whose terms expire in 1931 are: Heflin, Alabama: Robinson, Ar kansas; Harris, Georgia: Ransdell, Louisiana; Harrison, Mississippi: Glass. Virginia; Sheppard. Texas; Tyson, Tennessee, and Simmons, North Carolina, who is not expect ed to run again." This statement was made in con nection with an interview'with Dr. A. J. Barton, of the Southern Bap tist convention, who, with Bishop James Camion, organized and di rected the Asheville anti-Smith conference last summer. Doubts Penalization. Dr. Barton said tiiat he doubted if the southern voters would try to penalize those Democrats who voted for Smith. He took a shot at John j. Raskob. national Democratic chairman. Discussing Ule cumins over seats in congress, Dr. Barton said: ■‘Of course, the personal equation will enter into any contests that may develop. The southern people ate conservative, however, and I doubt that the people will be in clined to penalize men with good records just because they ran coun ter to their convictions in the presi dential campaign. I do not doubt that some of the senators and rep -esentatives will have opposition in "931 that might not have develop '’d had they taken a different course, but I do not think the op -Kxsition will be serious enough to defeat them.” Dr. Barton is chairman of the -'xecutive committee of the Anti Saloon League, and office secretary of the home mission board of the "Southern Baptist convention.

In subse quent chapters after reviewing his years in the White House, he tells of his boyhood and young man hood. The work, saya Mr. Long, is , really an autobiography. J. C. PENNE Y CO.
