Assembly; Remarkable Meet 'CONTINUED CHUM >>AUfc ONfc.1 lection of nearly $30,000,000 a yearj in taxes, as compared with previous measures providing for about $18, 000,000 a year. Of this $17,350,000 is for schools, including $15,700,000 for the six months term, to be supple mented by the approximately $1, 300.000 from fines, forfeitures, pen alties, poll and dog taxes .to be col lected and used locally; $1,500,000 for the extended term and $150,000 as an emergency'fund. This sum In cludes the estimated $4,500,000 from the 15-cent ad valorem tax for the current expenses of the six month school operation. A cut of 10 per cent In amount | paid for salaries, wages and fees of employees and officers 1n all state; departments^a cut of not more than 10 per cent for teachers and a cut not exceeding that of the teachers, for the institutions of the state, are included in the appropriations bill. The university's appropriation was; cut to $721,000 for each of the two years, while the other state insti tutions general were cut some to. help lessen the expected deficit of $1,500,000 to $2,000,000 a year, on the basis of present business conditions. The machinery act provides for no revaluation of property, the 15 cent ad valorem tax for schools be ing on the basis of the 1930 valua tion. Tlie school bill put into effect the operation of the six months term by the state with the aid of the 15-cent tax from the counties, and provides for some of the. desired economies in school operation and management. State Supt. A. T. Alien is not at all displeased with the out come of the school measure, which gave promise at times of resulting in crippling the school work. The last act passed provides for continuing the activities of the state tax commission, specifying a study of the listing and assessing of prop erty for taxation. This measure was about to be killed because of the re quirement of a two-thirds majority to pass it on its three readings in one day, until Governor Gardner called off the opponents, allowing the measure to pass, ~ A test day act was the filing cf the report of the committee inves tigation reports of attempted brib ery and corruption, instigated by Senator H. S. Ward. The commit tee's report was that no senator had been found to have violated his oath of office, that no competent evidence was introduced to show that S. Clay Williams and W. N, Reynolds, president and official of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. had tried to bribe a senator, but that the difference in testimony of Sena tor John Hinsdale, Wake county, and D. H, Pope, chairman of the Wake board of commissioners, should be called to the attention of the solicitor. Senator Ward filed a supplemental report, in which he vented his spleen on “big business” and particularly the Reynolds com pany, which was referred to the committee without public reading. The much discussed racing and pari-mutuel betting bill made its third appearance last week, in the guize of an agricultural and stock breeding organization, wanted by Representative W. W. Neal for Mc Dowell county. It was passed in the house, but killed in the senate. A like bill for Buncombe met a like fate earlier in the session and one for Polk county, passed by the sen ate at first, was brought back to the floor and killed by that body* The usual.last-minute rush at tended "the closing hours of the ses sion. A number of bills, consigned to the table or other burial place, sought to get out and by, but most of them went back to a long resting place. The session was noticeably free from last-minute legislation, although a few measures got by. A last day slaughtering was not large, due to the long time for such ac tivity, but the bills to redlstrict the state as to senatorial districts^nd to reapportion the members of the house of representatives, went to the table, despite the constitutional requirement, because of personal ambitions and sectional squabbling. The 1931 general assembly passed Dr. D. M. Morrison Optometrist Woolworth Bldg., Shelby, N. C. Wishes to announce that he will not be in his office dur ing the first two weeks of June. He will be attending a post graduate course covering some new developments for the better care of the hum an eye, as perfected in the famous Eye Clinics of the Pennsylvania State Col lege of Optometry, located in Philadelphia. Pa. Dr. Morrison’s absences from his office on these oc casions are always-made in the interest of his patients, and are in keeping with the best traditions of the pro fessional man who sincere ly wishes to render the very best i professional service. 1208~'fRgjfc>«+^ 1147 laws and resolutionsof tile 2102 bills arid resolutions introduced, leaving 806 which failed to pass. Probably 300 public bills were enacted, and 100 of those were probably amendments, changes, corrections and m<nor measures, leaving 200 of general and state-wide Interest. Probably 900 are local measures, or an average of about nine to each of the foo coun ties.
