Need Of Healthy
Tots Over Section
At today's session of the Shelby
Rotary club Dr. Ben Gold spoke
on children with defective bodies
and made a strong plea for better
health work among the children of
Shelby and Cleveland county.
"It we expect to have smart chil
dren, jye must first, of all have
healthy children." he declared.
‘ Many of our children are receiv
ing low grades at school because
of bad eyes, bad feet, tubercular
germs, and other defects of the
body.”
He reiterated the fact that the
county should have a better and
more systematic program of public
health work, particularly so among
the school children.

King Being Treated Well In State
Prison And Has Hopes Of
A New Trial.
“1 am able to tell the world
I am not guilty of the crime
they accuse me of,” writes Rafe
King to his friend Buck Hardin.
King, condemned for wife
murder is now in the South
Carolina pen, awaiting a possible
new trial, and Buck Hardin, his
friend in Shelby, has grown
gray headed, where he isn’t bald,
working for this newspaper.
King writes an optimistic letter
to his friend. He says he is well
treated in the pen, where he has
plenty to eat, a nice place to
sleep, and is given the privilege
now and then of playing a game of
ball.
His letter reveals the fact that he
has it in good and strong for the
newspapers, that he accuses of ly
ing about him wholesale.
The letter follows:
King's Letter.
1515 Gist street,
Columbia, S. C.
Dear Buck:
I received The Star all O. K., and
glad to get it and hear what is go
ing on. Well I guess things are kind
of quiet now since they got me in
the pen. Well. Buck, I can say I
feel just like I did before the trial.
I knew there were going to be lots
or lies told, and there were, but
that does not make me guilty.
I am able to tell the world I am
not guilty of the crime that they
accuse me of. And I will live up to
it, and prove to the world Just who
I am. I am just the same old Tom
mie, and I feel as good as eve^.
And we who are down here are get
ting plenty to eat and a good clean
place to sleep.
We get four afternoons each weex
to go out on the ball park and
play. We get all we want to read,
smoke, and can buy anything we
need at the canteen out in the yard.
So we are getting along all O. K
And have plenty of company in
here. We have a good captain who
runs the pen notwithstanding the
newspapers. They have printed a
thousand lies about me and how I
am being treated. I am satisfied, so
the people outside ought to be. I
know my feelings better than any
one else, and if I get a fair trial
next time, I will prove to them that
I am a man, and newspapers can't
kill a man by talking about him. If
so I would have oeen dead.
Well, Buck, tell all my friends 1
am well and feeling as good as
ever, and I am not worrying about
how I am being treated in here. I
like it much better than a jail. If
I have got to stay in either place
for awhile for nothing.
Well, I close for this time, and
if any one of my friends want to
write to me tell them they can.
And give them all my best regard-;.
Love to wife and babies.
Your friend,
RAFE.

Passenger Plane
Forced Down In
Kings Mt. Today
^ ._ --*
Six Passengers Unhurt Whrn Bis
Plane Make* Forced Landing
At Kings Mountain.
Kings Mountain, Aug. 9.—A
big amphibian plane, with six
people aboard, made a forced
landing shortly after noon to
day Just southwest of Kings
Mountain when the motor stop
ped in midair.
Although the plane was con
siderably smashed up after be
ing forced to “coast” to earth
the pilot and his six passengers
were not Injured.
The plane, a Keystone-Loe
ing, en route from New York to
Louisiana, left Richmond early
this morning. Just at the noon
hour Kings Mountain residents *
heard the whirring motors of the
big passenger plane overhead,
and just as they looked up they
heard the big motor stop and no
ticed some signs of distress. The
pilot, however, manuevered his
dead-motor plane in magnificent
maner and although the amphi
bian makeup of the plane made
a forced landing difficult he
brought his human cargo to
earth without injuries.
At an early hour this after
noon the mechanic had not
completely finished his investi
gation, but it is thought that a
gas line became plugged. The
plane was apparently new.
The main damage was to the
low landing gear and the wing
tips.
The plane will likely be forc
ed to remain In Kings Moun
tain until about Sunday until
parts arrive from New York and
repairs are made.
The exact location of the
land was southwest of town
between the Grover and Shelbv
highways.

Webb Brothers Golfing Team
Invades Charlotte Saturday
I
! Pete and “Snook'’ WebUt Shelby’s
youthful golf experts who have toss
ed a daring, open challenge to any
and all niblick swingers in the
world, will visit Charlotte tomor
row', Saturday afternoon, for a re
turn contest with the two crack
Charlotte golfers they defeated here
last Saturday
The contest will be staged ove*
the attractive country club course
at Charlotte, and the opponents of
the Webb boys will be Irwin Lax
ton, former junior Carolinas cham
pion; and Freddy McCanless. This
pair was licked two up in Shelby
last Saturday by the Webb boys,
and the local youngsters, one of
whom wears the Carolinas crown,
having won it from the other, fire
of the opinion that they will retain
their lead over the Charlotte golf
ers.
It. is likely that quite a number of
local golf fans may take Saturday
afternoon off from their own play
and motor to Charlotte for the
match. It is a certainty that many
Charlotte golfers will follow the
contest about the course as young
Laxton is the city champion there
and McCanless rates among the
Queen City golfers; and, further
more, the Charlotte folks have been
hearing too much about the Shelby
cadides who are willing—in fact,

Large Cotton
Crop Predicted
In New Estimate
Million More Bales Than Last Tear
Forecast And Prices Take
Tumble.
Washington, Aug. 9.—The
first government cotton esti
mate of the year yesterday,
which forecast a million more
bales than last year, sent cot
ton down $3 per bale on the
New York exchange yesterday.
The department of agriculture
in announcing its first forecast
this season on the size of the
crop said the August 1 condi
tion indicated a production of
15,543,000 bales. Last year’s crop
was 14,478,000 bales.
The crop reporting board, in de
termining the probable yields, made
of acreage and for probable loss due
to the boll weevil in accordance
with its current reports on weevil
activity.
The Augusr 1 condition of the
North Carolina crop was described
as follows:
North Carolina: The crop looks
good due to abundance of squares,
blooms and small bolls, but the
presence of heavy weevil tnfesta
tatlon threatens to reduce this fav
orable condition seriously. Cultiva
tion has been good and tempera
tures favorable, but rainfall has
been somewhat excessive.
Outside Aid May
Be Lacking For A
County Farm Agent
E. L. Millsaps, District Agent, Says
Money May Go To Another
County.
Since the county commissioners
and the state extension department
have been unable to reach an agree
ment on a county farm agent to
succeed Alvin Hardin who recently
resigned in this county, the state
and federal aid which has been
coming to the county to the amount
of *1,700 a year, may be allotted to
some other county and Cleveland
would be left in the cold, says Mr.
E. L. Millsaps, district farm agent
of Statesville.
It will be lecalled that after the
resignation of Alvin Hardin as farm
agent, Mr. Millsaps recommended a
successor from another county who
had years of experience teaching
agriculture in a farm-life school and
was a graduate of state college in
agriculture. Haylus G. Moore of this
county, placed his application as
Hardin's successor and the county
commissioner elected him, subject to
the approval of Mr. Schaub of the
state extension department. Mr.
Schaub declined to approve because
his department has adopted a rule
not to endorse any agent for work
in the county of his nativity, on the
ground that he can never do satis
factory work. After his rejection, the
county commissioners have not dis
cussed the matter in official meet
ing.
There Is a strong sentiment
throughout the county against
Cleveland having a farm agent,

Eastside And
Union To Clash
Here Saturday
Dover And Knob Creek In Second
Game Of County Loajur Dou
ble BUI.
The Shelby double-header at the
city park here Saturday afternoon
in the Cleveland county league will
see the strong Eastside team taking
on Union In one contest of the dou
ble bill and Dover-Ora playing Knob
Creek in the other game.
, The Union outfit is determined to
lower the standing of the Eastsid
ers, who are tied with the Cleve
land Cloth for the league lead, and
Knob Creek will battle to climb
from the club's cellar berth by get
ting on even terms with the Dover
Ora sluggers.
Other Karnes.
The two other games in the coun
ty loop will be played at Boiling
Springs and Lawndale with Lily
Mill facing the tossers of the Bap
tist college town and the strong
Cloth mill team playing Lawndale
before the home-town fans of the
Lawndale boys.
Sherrill Hamrick, the high school
ace, will likely take the mound for
Eastside to help keep the east Shel
by crew at the top of the league
heap, but the Union boys from up
in his home section have their wil
lows tuned up to end the game in
another style.
The Knob Creek-Dover-Ora con
test is expected to be a nip-and
tuck tussle since the teams are
pretty well matched.
Play Good Ball.
Each week sees the brand of play
in the county loop improve and
from now on until the end of the
season fans of the horsehiae pas
time will likely be served up an en
tertaining dish of diamond doings.

County Schools Get $104,000
This Year From State Funds;
$7,221 More Than Last Year
■»
Because of the increased appropriation from the state
treasury for the school equalization fund, Cleveland county
will receive this year $104,221.05 which is $57,221 more than
last year when our school system received $47,000 for school
purposes.
When Governor Gardner went into office, he decided to
urge a lowering of the tax rate, on real estate. To do this,
the tax on corporate, wealth was increased to the end that a
general tax reduction is possible all over North Carolina.
In Cleveland county the tax rate will come down 1 Si
on the $100 property valuation which is arrived at in this
manner; By receiving $57,221 more for education in Cleve*
land county ,a corresponding reduction is made in the lax
rate. Taxable wealth in the county is 38 millions. Fifteen
cents off on the $100 cuts the total amount of county taxes
$57,000, the amount of the increase from the state over the
previous year.
This state aid for schools will benefit the 11 eight montns
schools in the county in the following manner, said Governor
Gardner in his speech last night before the Kiwnnis club:

To the above total should be added $35,000 which the
county will receive from the state on the one cent a gallon
increase on the gasoline tax, which makes a grand total of
$92,221 which Cleveland county will receive this year above
last year.
The countv tax rate, therefore for schools will be cut
from 60c to 54c and for county purposes from 28c to 19c, re
ducing the county rate from 88c basis last year to 73c this
year. This compares with $1.35 county rate in Lincoln,
about 95c in Gaston and $1.41 in Rutherford county.

City Officials Here To Pay
For Own Lights And Water Now
Ruling; Made By Mayor And Al
derman In Regular Meeting
Tuesday Night.
City officials, that is the mayor,
aldermen and heads of various de
partments of the city, must pay for
water and lights hereafter, it was
ordered at the regular meeting of
the officials Tuesday night. In the
case of departmental heads, the
city has heretofore been paying for
telephone in some homes, but this
practice has been discontinued un
der the new administration and all
officials who have been receiving
water, and telephone services free,
will be required to pay for such
services.
The city officials did not take
this action as a cut in the pay of
officials, but thought it would allay
much criticism that has been made.
In some cases, the pay of these of
ficials was slightly increased to
give them sufficient revenue to pay
for these services which they have

Business Management Of Homs'
County In Address.
Governor Max Gardner who It
here on a short, vacation, address'd
the Kiwanis club last night in it*
regular weekly meeting at Clevs*
land 8prtngs, devoting his sub Jed
to the tax reduction as it effects
Cleveland county. Governor Gardf
ner’s first effort after he went to
Raleigh was to bring about mom
state aid for the struggling school*
in districts where the property J*
not of sufficient value to warrant
the longer term without a tax letj
that is burdensome.
‘ Cleveland county will be able tjft
make a tax reduction of 15c on <&*
$100 because of this state aid and
in Cleveland county the reduction
would be greater if it were not fo*
the fact that school authoritl**
have done Jlke them In many otl»*e
places throughout the state, created*
a deficit, which must be wiped out,1*
said Governor Gardner.
governor uaraner considers thl*
increased state aid for schools oqbi
of the major achievements of his
administration so far and pointed'
out last night, just how the various
schools of the county will share tit
this increased appropriation. Hg
said In part:
‘ X am very happy to be privileged^
to again meet with the Klwanls club
of Shelby. Some of the most dft*
lightful days of my life were speng
In its social and constructive prop
grams.
"I have no prepared address bqg
I thought you would probably b$
interested in some phase of thg
nation program of my ftdmlnlstrj*
• ion as it relates to Cleveland couz|ji
y. As you recall. I urged the gen*
< . a) assembly to make a reduction
of property tax In North Caroling
I with special emphasis on roads and
public education. After a long struga
; Tie, this reduction was actually as*
compllshed. It may be of interest ta
you to know how this reduction has
reflected Itself in Cleveland county,
$104,321 From State.
"In 1928 Cleveland county r&»
ceived *47,000 from the state equally
zing fund for the six months’ school*
term This year Cleveland county,
will receive $82,596.17 from th«*
state for the six months' term and!
In addition will receive $18,234.88 font
the‘benefit of the‘various schoQf
districts of the county enjoying thg
eight months’ term and $3,480.0$
improving teaching personnel. Id
other words, Cleveland county will;'
receive In addition to the $47.00$
that it received last year, an extra!
sum of $57,221 for public cduca*^
tion and will also receive $35,00$
from the gasoline tax for road pur*’
poses. This is to say, Cleveland
county, in 1929, will receive froqg
the state for schools and roads *92,*
221.05 more than It received inf
1928 and every dollar of this largg *
sum is being reflected in either ■
tax reduction or in the payment at
a deficit of schools. The effect of
this increased state aid has bee#
appreciated by our county com*
mlssioners in a tax reduction of 15$
on the $100 ot property value or g
total tax reduction for Cleveland
county of $57,000 on property fag
this year. This reduction has been
affected by our commissioners by g
reduction of 6c on the six month#
term, 8c on the debt service rega
resented by interest on bonds *w*j|
bond maturity, and lc reduction!
on levy for bridges. .The. tax ratg
in Cleveland county for 1929, foe
county purposes, will be 73c instead
of 88c and if we take the levy off
for schools we only have 19c re*
maining for other county purposes,
I regard this as a remarkable ree
ord and I believe that Cleveland
county today is levying the lowesg
taxes of any county in the state fog
purely county purposes. It is evi
dence also of good management and
wise leadership. This county hu
been remarkably free from thg
slightest vestige of graft and cor
ruption.
Praise For Mr. MolL
“Representative Mull .was a great
assistance to me in securing tha
$18,234.88 for the special districts
or the county and the state booed
of equalization has divided this sum
in such a nianer as to give relief
where relief was needed most ag
where the tax burden was heaviest?
For instance the Belwood district
receives $2,455.63: Casar $1,150.55;
Fallston *1.309.79; Lattimore $1,«
