smtaMve Lindsay Warren was re
quested yesterday by The Carolines,
Die., which has headquarters in
Charlotte, to endeavor to get the
federal government to have a re
plica of the original Wright broth
ers aeroplane built and a museum
erected at the site of the first suc
cessful flight at Kitty Hawk on the
North Carolina coast to house it.
At the suggestion of R. Bruce
Etheridge, director of the depart
ment of conservation and develop
ment of the state government, and
W. O. Saunders. Elisabeth City,
newspaper publisher, the organisa
tion will not attempt to bring the
original plane from England to
North Carolina
Mr. Saunders visited Orville
Wright in Dayton in 1MT in an
effort to obtain the plane, but Mr.
Wright was obdurate in his de
termination to leave it at South
Kensington, England. Mr. Saunders
claims that the plane that made its
successful and historic flight at Kill
Devil Hills on December 17, 1903,
was later wrecked. Most of its wood
work was splintered and made into
souvenirs and the cloth on the
wings went into souvenir handker
chiefs. He said mast of the plane
now in England is a rebuilt machine
entirely.

Six Major Appropriations
Approved By Legislature
(Special to The Star)
RALEIGH, March 30—Clearing
the deck for action on the question
of allocations for public schools, the
house of representatives, sitting as a
committee of tlie whole, adopted
tentatively today six major sections
of the biennial appropriations bill.
Controversy over proposed appro
priations of •30,031,000 for the first
and $30,000,000 for the second year
of the biennium for public instruc
tion is expected to cause the first
real fireworks in the lower cham
ber’s consideration of the spending
bill.
The house of representatives, aft
er passing on its third reading the
troublesome revenue bill Tuesday
and sending it to the senate Wed
nesday, again went into a commit
tee of the whole Wednesday nncf
went at the appropriations bill with
scuh vim as to indicate that it will
be completed by the time this arti
cle appears, unless snags hold it up.
The senate, on receiving the rev
enue bill Wednesday, referred it to
its finance committee, which Wed
nesday afternoon heard objections
to new sections written into It in
the house, including the heavy tax
on chain filling station and the tax
on individual income from domestic
corporations. Chairman Harris New
nun, of the senate finance com
mittee, promised to get the bill back
to the floor of the senate within a
day or two, when that body will
begin its grind Senator Lee Grave
ly, Nash, is expected to lead oppo
sition to the three per cent sales tax
provision, but belief is that the
senate will adopt it.
The house spent its Wednesday
morning and Wednesday night ses
sions on the appropriations bill. It
was expected to be completed not
later than Thursday, and started on
its readings. Early attempts to
change it failed, and belief ts that
it will go through in about the form
it came from the committee. Chair
man Victor Bryant, Durham, of the
house appropriations committee, is
its pilot. Slight changes made had
the approval of the chairman.
The revenue bill, which took a
peculiar turn Monday, was delayed
one day in its final passage by the
house, when the McDonald-Lump
kin bloc mustered enough strength
to reduce the sales tax from three
to two per cent. Monday, by a vote
of 52 to 44. only to lose again the
next day, when th« rate was again
mace three per cent by a vote of
*4 to 50. S'nee no changes were
made, it was held Dy Speaker R. G.
Johnson that the bill was still on
its third reading. The Monday dis
play of strength of the anti-sales
bloc was unusual.
The senate has pretty well clear
ed its calendar, in anticipation of
the revenue bill, but the house
which took up the appropriations
bill, finds many bills ready for its
attention, which can be given while
the senate is on the revenue and
appropriations bills. Progress made
indicates adjournment can be reach
ed within, maybe less than, three
weeks, although unexpected trouble
may extend the time.
The lethal gas chamber, as a
means of inflicting the death pen
alty by the state, has the unani
mous approval of the Joint com
mittee on penal institutions, as
contained in a bill introduced by
Dr. C. A. Peterson. Republican. This
may be highly controverted on the
floors, however. The bill to set up
a parole board was referred to a
sub-committee for further study.
Impovements in the parole system
are being worked out by Governor
Ehringhaus and Commissioner Ed
win Gill.
The senate seems now agreed up
on a motor vehicle license fee of 45
cents on the 100 pounds, reduced
from 56 cents, with $8 as a mini
mum, Instead of 812.50 The meas
ure has to pass three reading on
different days.
Also the senate agreed to submit
to the voters the adoption of con*
stitutlonal amendments, agreed up
on by factions in the fight last year,
except that it was adverse and vot
ed out the provision to take Jus
tices of the peace out of the con
stitution and make the positions
statutory. The amendments would
increase the income tax limit to 10
per cent; limit public borrowing;
classify property for taxation; ex
empt homes to $1,000; establish a
system of inferior courts, and
create a criminal division of the
superior courts. The bills go to the
house.
The house passed the senate bill
to provide for a joint board of 12
men for the present tubercular hos
pital and one provided for the 'vest
ern section.
The senate election laws commit
tee frowned upon two bills, one to
elect the commissioner of revenue,
the other the highway chairman.
It also killed the bill to abolish the
absentee ballot law.
Pay For Prisoners.
A bill to pay $30 each a month to
the two negroes whose feet were
cut off as the result of punishment
while in penal servitude has been
introduced.
Bills introduced this session pass
Ml the 1270 mark Wednesday. Rati
fied the first three days of this
week were 14 public bills and 41
local bills, most of them already
passed and ready for ratification,
waiting for the house to get through
with the revenue bill.
Not previousuy noted of the pub
lic bills are the following: to cre
ate a lien upon recoveries in civil
actions for personal injuries in fa
vor of sums due for medical, hos
pital and dental attention; pre
cent rabies; Increase beer alcoholic
content to five per cent; extend
provisions of workmen's compensa
tion act to certain occupational di
seases: regulate hours of work in
hospitals of state, except in emer
gency, to 12 hours; provide help
from local government commission
to defaulting local governmental
units; provide banking facilities for
small communities now without
such service.
Erwin Is Hopeful
For State Schools
WINSTON-SALEM, March 30
State Superintendent of Education
Clyde A. Erwin is still hopeful the
general assembly will indorse his
$22,000,000 school program, he said
yesterday upon arriving on the
scene of the fifty-first annual con
vention of the North Carolina Edu
cation association.
Not unduly downcast by the ac
tion of the house in sending on to
the senate yesterday a revenue bill
carrying two millions less in school
appropriations than he had asked
for. Superintendent Erwin said:
! "We shall have hope in the sen
ate. But even if we lose the fight, I
think it is a significant victory in
that we have beer, warmly and
cordially received by the members
of the general assembly.
There is no doubt but that most
of the members are genuinely
friendly to our cause. The biggest
obstacle to overcome is a source of
revenue”
