Special Session Over Cotton Is Not Likely In State; Might Play Politics I CONTINUED I'ROM PAOE ON hibltlon at a special session rallc.11 for another purpose. Pay Nn ObsUrle. The question of pay for the leg - J islators has never been a serlotr-, obstacle, although the payroll of th | general assembly, for members | alone would be $1,700 per day. it! $10 per man. But if they could come j to Kalcigh and really do something | to make cotton sell for more. n one would begrudge them their pay In addition. North Carolina ha been and apparently will continue to reduce her cotton acreage. In the states further .south, the legisla tures have had to cheek a tendency to Increase cotton production. The i governor and jnany other cotton! experts believe that, this state w:il) reduce Its cotton production as much I without legislation as it would with,; and thnt the farmers will solve: their own problem with a voluntary) cut. A further reason that the ..lute administration does not desire aI special session Is that many of the • administrations chief supporters have resigned to accept other state positions. Among these, in the house. | are former Representatives Hood hi Wayne, Gill of Scotland, Jeffress o! Qutlford, Neal of McDowell and Seawell of Lee. Without this group, the house would tend to be anti- j administration. and might bej tempted to play politics. In the senate, where the ami- S sale stax forces had a margin of ) only one vole. Senator Dunlap of1 Anson, chairman of the finyncc j committee and leading opponent of! the sales tax‘hits resigned to b" i come director of personnel As a result, there is a danger that the old and rejected remedy for the farmers' troubles, the luxury sales rax, might be revived, and the .state would then face another five months of uncertainty as to what the legislature would do The pub lic. at least the non-farming public living west of Raleigh, can be counted on to back the governor up in not bringing the legislature lnr. | session again, his advisers believe. 1 Dick Brabble Heads Hotel In Charlotte Manages Mecklenburg, Suieeedins Hartley Who Was Sent To Prison.
