Glass Banking Bill Finally Gets By Senate Filibuster; Danger Yet House May Kill Bill Designed To Stop Bank Failures, Aid Depositors. Washington, Jan. 27.—Three weeks of bitter fighting were over yesterday—the Glass banking bill was through the senate; the fili buster was ended. But the triumph probable was one in name only for this season. Every sign pointed to slow death in the house of the measure for which Senator Glass, Virginia Democrat, has fought for two years. A house legislative jam seemed certain to block a vote on it before March 4. In its second successive night ses • sion, the senate passed the Glass bill making sweeping changes in the nation's banking laws, by a vote of 54 to 9 and turned its at j tention to the treasury-post office appropriation bill. That contained She makings of another stormy con ' troversy . The house rtxjjiy '<*ik up the money bill supplying operating funds for the state, commerce, jus tice and labor departments. It started consideration of the measure at a night session last night, but not much progress was made. The dynamite carried in the treasury-post office legislation be fore the senate was to be found in provisions for an additional one and two-thirds per cent cut for federal employees, reductions in benefits to former soldiers, and in a clause giv ing President-elect Roosevelt broad power to reorganize the govern ment in the interest of economy. Senator Glass, a former secretary of the treasury and mentioned as Mr. Roosevelt’s choice for the same post under the new administration, licked the time-killing filibuster in the senate by circulating a petition to invoke the rigid cloture debate limiting rule. It was apparent that this time the cloture petition would receive ,roVTTV"TT> n\ PAGE TEN , , Technocracy’s Duce The elusive Howard Scott, High Priest of Technocracy, at last run to earth by the camera, is shown here as he announced that he would continue his work for technocracy despite the withdrawal of Profes sor Walter Rautenstrauch, his right hand man, and other associates do ing research work at Columbia University.

The Shelby Agricultural Credit corporation which has been operat ing here for the past few years, making crop loans to farmers, was dissolved at a meeting of the stock holders on Wednesday of this week.

Other farm and crop loan organ izations have been set up to per form the functions and duties the local organization performed, sp its use *r no' longer needed.

It made loans amounting to about $30,000 a year to farmers for making their crops and all loans have been paid.

Excessive Tax May Drive Utilities From State, General Assembly Told Additional Tax Might Force Firms Away, Company Represen tatives Say, Raleigh, Jan. 27.—North Carolina's present taxation is unattractive to further investment of capital in utility projects, and any increase in the tax rate would be little short of disaster, the joint finance com mittee of the general assembly was informed by representatives of pub lic utility companies serving North Carolina. The utility companies told a /fluty of decreased Income, severe losses and mounting taxes—a theme that has grown familiar to the joint committee since it began its hear ings last week. All the utility rep resentatives were insistent in their claim that the present taxes are an unbearable hardship and that the proposed tax of one mill per kilo watt hour would drive many com panies away. A tax on « kilowatt hour basis. . • , - ■ 0 besides being wrong in principle, j would be an unbearable burden on ; (he power companies, it was claim ed, while the proposed one cent in- j ! crease in franchise taxes also could ! not be borne. That the present tax es need to be decreased instead of increased was the general theme of the utilities’ case, It was frequently pointed out dur ing the hearing that North Caro lina's rate of five per cent on gross Income Is higher than that of any state In the union with the excep tion of California and that any in crease which could not, be absorbed1 by the utilities would force the in dustry to go elsewhere. The establishment of utilities, the committee was told, invariably caused the state's income from that area to increase many times over its original size and to place any further hardship on the industry would be decided to the state’s ad vantage. None of the utility repres entatives could predict a better outlook for t?m , Gardner Fights Primary Repeal For This State Say* Leave Power With People Cleveland Representative Oppose* Ketnrn To Old Convention Style. i Star News Bureau) Raleigh, Jan. 27.—While the com mittee on election laws voted unfa vorably on the bill cxf "Tam" Bowie, •■Pete" Murphy anti 20 other house members to abolish the state-wide primary before the house commit tee Thursday, a minority report la ex tier ted to bring about another hot fight on the floor Vote rt to 4. The committee voted six to lour against the measure repealing the primary, the opponents being Thompson, of Columbus, Cover, of Cherokee. Gardner, of Cleveland, Wilson, of Caswell, Edwards, of Pitt, and Lumpkin, of Franklin, while those who would return to the convention system are Chair man Bowie, of Ashe. Haynes, of. Surry. Ray of Henderson, and Mas senburg, of Polk. Tom Host. Raleigh newspaper man, went up against "Pete’’ Mur phy with quotations from the scrip tures and challenging the Murphy statements as to cost of the pri mary. which coat statements were also challenged by Raymon Max well, secretary of the state bourd of elections, who said the two primary elections last year coat the State •2,610, above the filing fees and the counties from $100,000 to $150,000. Half a dozen spoke against abolish ing the primary, white Murphy and Bowie had one or two assistants In their fight. Gardner Speak*. Ernest Gardner, Cleveland, took a leading part in opposing the meas ure, speaking earnestly In opposi tion to the convention system of nominating candidates. He said he had confidence in the masses to elect proper officers, and that abol ishing the primary would disfran chise the common people. The pri mary Is the only democratic and satisfactory way to nominate offic ers. he said, stating that the people I now read und keep up with the tim es and are thus qualified and should name their candidates. Hits Machine. Gardner said he earn assed Cleve land from South Carolina north ward and found the people opposed to abolishing the primary, feeling St a safe and proper vay to name can didates. The Shelby solon, a rela tive of former Gove*nor Gardner, attacked the "State machine," say ing it was controlled by a dictator, but that It was demolished by the 1932 election, and could be made to function again only through the convention system. Ht claimed the legislators would not be so eager to abolish the primary when they know- the sentiment of the people back home. Raccoon Hunting Stars In County Bui Soon Ends When "Coon Proves To Be One Brouichl From Mountains. The Double Shoul. section at Cleveland county, that portion of it which *ls fond of hunting, derived the idea recently that the county had u new kind of same, raccoon* Tlie young sons of Roland Price were out with their dogs when the dogs struck a trail and treed. Be* lleving It to be an opossum in the hollow of the tree, the boys Investi gated only to find a 'e.rge raccoon which they captured and carried home. The news spread rapidly and aev - era! raccoon hunting parties might have been organized except for the fact that Tyste Ledford, well known young hunter, happened by the Price home and without seeing It gave a perfect description of the ’coon. He caught it some time ago in the Blue Ridge mountains and brought It home with him and it la ter escaped. So, for the time being, Cleveland county hunters will not go 'coon hunting unless they go back into the mountains. Soon Will Have Been Married 54 .. Yeara Mr. and Mrs. Q. M. Ledford will have been married 54 year* on Jan uary 31st, They, live a few miles northeast of Shelby near New Pros pect church- While they do not plan any feelebration. their friends will no doubt gather in to congratu late them.
