Assembly Gets ReadytoRiot, Already Riled Lawmakers Have Been Wrangling For Near Three Months Now. (By CARL OOERCII1 It wouldn't surprise me In the slightest to Ase a riot start up In Ra leigh at any time. The boys are getting so mad that there’s no telling what will happen next. They’re righting each other now, instead of lighting lor lower taxes. Out in the world thou gocst, Oh, treasure of my heart! Now hark to what 1 tell thee, Ere moving to depart. Become a lawyer if you wish; A doctor or a barber. Against these not a single grudge Doth mankind ever harbor. Become a lanner or a clown— Or even be a waiter. But for the love of Pete, my son— Don't be a legislator! 7 he short ballot bill got sat on last week. And that uncovered a lot of opposition which, until then, had kept itself mow or less in hiding. You see, there are some members of the legislature who never have been and who never can be actual lead ers. They resent the idea of anyone else attaining any prominence along those liner. Thr Hon. O. Max tuts been dcing some mighty effective leading during the last couple of months, and sorry of the boys don't like tt. They’re now snapping and Tipping at his heels like a bunch of An^KMUTK*TOR'S NOTICE. Having Mii« day qualified *a administra tor of the relate of Ellzu non. dtcuun of Cleveland county.

What they're trying to do Is to tear him down, even though they may have to tear down some mighty good bills In order to accom plish their purposes. The drug store liquor bill didn’t tand much of a show. What's the ciift- ot loading up all our dry," -itores with liquor when you can go out Into the country and get all you please? Useless and entirely un necessary. And this week we come to the oft dlacussed and oft-cussed Mac-Lean bill, which has to do with the state support of schools. This bill, unless It gets defeated, Is bound to pass. Members of the senate and house have held It in reserve and are pre senting It now as a grand finale, with everybody Joining In the sing ing. Revenue Commissioner Maxwell spoke against the bill over the radio. This radlo-speaktng business is get ting to be mighty popular. It used to be that our public men went to the newspapers and had their views Inserted there. The trouble with that course, however, was that the newspapers make a permanent rec ord of your remarks. With the radio it’s different If somebody doesn't like what you say, you can always tell them that they misun derstood you The sales tax is still up there. Any well informed advocate of such a proposition can, without the slight est trouble, set forth 2,458 sound and logical reasons why a sales tax should be adopted. And any well in [ formed opponent to the measure | can—also without trouble—give you 12,458 equally sound and logical rea sons why it should not be adopted. I'rake your choice; there’s no use in my trying to say anything about it. Almost three months since the gang got together. Three months of wrangling and fussing. Seems like a pity, doesn't it? Particularly when moat of us were interested in only one thing—and that was a reduc tion in property taxes. Thus far, that is the only thing which has not, Dt'en given any serious consid eration. They have legislated in fav or of or against practically every thing under the sun, to say nothing of the nioon. They have even gone out of their way to find bills which they could introduce and pass.

New York, March 27.—Important developments in the creation of new uses for cotton and the pronounced improvement in the cotton manu facturing Industry of this country during the last two months were de scribed by George A. Sloan, presi dent of the Cotton Textile institute, at a meeting of the New York Cot ton exchange. Mr. Sloan spoke optimistically of the results accomplished by the cot ton manufacturing Industry, with the co-operation of the United States departments of agriculture and commerce, in expanding the consumption of cotton goods, and of the effect of such activities. Sales Volume Galas. "The volume of sales of cotton cloth since January 1,” said Mr Sloan, "has been heavier than dur ing the same period in any recent year. These large sales have com pletely changed the position of the industry. While unfilled orders are now approaching peak levels, stocks on hand, the cause of concern only a iew montns ago, nave diminished to the lowest volume ever recorded. On many classes of goods, stocks have been /educed to the minimum yardage on which current business can be transacted. “Notwithstanding this gratifying expansion of business, the mills are taking a conservative atltude re garding production because of the conviction throughout the Industry that the recent favorable trend in cotton textile should not be regard ed as a genuine recovery until the general business situation shows further improvement.

C. capacity for production of cotton goods has been corrected to an Im portant extent by the discontinu ance of night employment of a'ometi and minors In a large proportl tn of the mills. Sees Stabilisation. “There Is a growing tendency to discontinue night operations entire ly and to concentrate production on the day shlff. These developments, together with further observance of greater uniformity of running time, promise to go far in stabilizing em ployment.” Among the new uses for cotton goods described by Mr. Sloan Is the insertion of a heavy layer of water proof cotton fabric between the two layers of wood planking In the holds of motor boats and light cruisers which does away with the necessity of calking. Oranges from Florida are now coming Into the New York market In a newly developed open meshed cotton bag for retail distribution. Increasing amounts of cotton cloth are being used for cloth stationary, maps, menu cards,, and advertising posters. Over 80,000 People Killed By Autos Trenton, N.
