whom she kept company frequently
had told her of his financial troubles
and had threatened suietde, even
going so far as to show her his
pistol Monday afternoon.
Mrs. Phillips Falou.
Phillips who is a married man
and has an eight year old son lived
at North Wilkesboro before he came
to Lenoir and was mayor of that
city at one time. His wife came
to Shelby as soon as she could after
being notified of the tragedy and
swooned when she entered the hos
pital corridor.
After she had gained her com
posure she expressed herself as
wanting to sue Mrs. Yount, the
widow, for breaking up her home.
Widow Has Two Children.
Mrs. Yount is about 37 years of
age and the mother of two child

about three' years ago. He was a
prominent glove manufacturer. With
her mother, Mrs. E. A. Smith away
in a hospital, Mrs. Yount has been
staying with her father at Kings
^fountain and on Monday afternoon
she and Phillips went for an auto
mobile ride in the direction of
Grover. The car was headed toward

Mooresboro To
Open School
Marked Increase in Enrollment Ei
pected Monday—N ame of Fa -
Cnlty Members.
When Mooresboro School will
open its doors on Monday. July 27,
the largest enrollment in the history
of the school is expected, A check
on the high school seems to indi
cate that there will be at least 100
pupils to enroll. A marked increase
in the elementary grades is also
expected. The school will have the
same number of teachers this year
that it had last year. Under the
old requirement of teacher’s load,
the high school would have had a
fourth teacher, but under the new
requirement the average attendance
last year was four pupils below the
number which entitles the school to
the fourth teacher.
The faculty is the same as last
year: J. A. Kiser, Principal, Mathe
matics and Science: J. D. Huggins,

$50,000 Camp For
Prisoners Planned
Around 50,000 will be spent In the
near future on the construction of a
state highway prison camp in Mc
Dowell county, W. W. Neal, state
highway commissioner, stated this
week.
Large buildings of brick and con
crete will be erected for the hous
ing of 400 to 500 -prisoners, other
structures of wood will be built for
the housing of materials and of per
sons having charge of the camp.
Light, water, and , sewage systems
will be installed—in fact, a small
town is to spring up on the site
once occupied by McDowell’s county
home.
E. B. Jeffress, chairman of the
highway commission, is expected
there in about 10 days to look over
the camp and the plans for its es
tablishment. The plans are already
drawn up and if they are approved
construction work will begin right
away.
While the No. 8 highway convict
camp just north of Shelby has been
taken over by the State with all
county roads, no plans have as yet
been made for its enlargement. It
will probably continue a secondary
camp where small number of pris
oners will be housed while they worl:
in this road division. I

The aocident happened yesterday
afternoon, shortly before five o'clock
on highway ten, five miles east of

wet asphalt, and crashing broadside
Into the wagon, drawn by two mules,
in which the Watson brothers were
riding
About a dosen qf the bus passen
gers suffered minor injuries from
flying glass and shock But it is be
lieved none of them was critically
j hurt. They were brought to this
j city for treatment.
It 1s reported that the big vehicle,

traveling at moderate speed down a
more or less steep incline, suddenly
I skidded on the wet road at a curve,
1 the rear end swinging around and
i colliding with the wagon with such

Partial Settlement Being Made
By County With Sheriff Allen
Total of $50,402 Remains I'npald
From 1930 Taxes Says
Tax Auditor.
For the past several days, tax of
ficials have been busy making a par
tial settlement with Sheriff Allen on
1830 taxes. Until a partial settle
ment is made, the county treasur
er, Mrs. Mary Lou Yarboro cannot
close her books for the fiscal year,
ending June 30th
In the years past, final settlements
have been made before this, but the
delay was occasioned this year by
the fact that the legislature delayed
action on the seal of 130 property for
taxes, finally leaving the sale of
property on which taxes for the
year 1930 will be advertised for sale.
It is learned at the office of the
county taax supervisor, R. L. Weath
ers that $50,402 remains unpaid on
the 1930 list. Of this amount ap
proximately $13,000 is due by the
Seaboard Air Line railroad. The
failure of the Seaboard to pay its
1930 taxe^ Is due to the fact that
the road entered bankruptcy a few
months ago. However, It Is expected
that this money will come into the
county treasurer before the date
set for the sale October 1st.
Officials feel that taxes have been 1
paid much better in Cleveland coun- j
ty than in other counties of the:
state. Less than ten per cent of the,
total amount on the books remains'
unpaid and usually this amount was!
unpaid when the property was adver j
Used for sale after the first of July J
of previous years. j
Shrinkage In Value*
In County Shown
Slight Adjustments In Ten Cue!
Are Made With Revisions
Downward.
Tax payers of Cleveland roun
tv did not make a rush to get
their property values lowered
from the 1930 assessment when
the County Commissioners met
a few days ago In special session
as an ‘'equalizing board" to hear
complaints as to values.
Just 50 objection* were raised U
the values as they stand and th»
equalizing board made slight ad
Justments in ten cases, says R. L,
Weathers, county tax supervisor
The equalizing board had expected
to be bombarded with requests fot
lower values, but the bombardment
did not materialize, due to the fact
that the county-wide tax rate wll:
be lowered from 73c to 50c on th»
$100 valuation of property and that
considerable reductions will also bt
made In the eleven road districts
In addition to those reductions, th#
levies will be reduced in six of th<
sixteen special school taxing dis
tricts.
TB ' payers .seem to know from
the publicity given to the effort on
the part of the county commission
ers to cut every corner and lower
the rates as much as possible, that
if there were a general lowering of
values, the tax rates could not be
lowered to any great extent. With
all real property remaining on the
books as of last year's values, sweep
ing rate reductions are possible for
county and district purposes. Tax
payers will see the difference in
their tax receipts next Fall when
they begin to pay 1931 taxes.
There was a natural shrinkage
in personal property, but Tax Super
visor R L. Weathers does not think
the total shrinkage will be more
than a half million dollars. Last
year the total real and person prop
erty valuation for the county was
*38,500,000. This year it will prob
ably be *38.000,000 or some figure
close to that amount.
Clerks in the tax office are bust
abstracting and making up th<
totals so the levy can be made th«
first Monday in August by the
county commissioners. Not a 1
townships have been completed u
yet, but No. 1 township shows a
slight increase in values, Nos. 11
and 11 show a combined shrinkagt
of *80,000, decreases will be showr.
in Nos. fi - and 4 townships. On«
third of the total county valuatior
is represented in No. 8 township
which includes Shelby with approx
imately *10.000.000 in real and per
sonal property.
Totals for the various township;
road and school taxing districts wil
be ready to lay before the count*
commissioners at their meeting thi
first Monday in August.
