Information Received
About Banded Bird
A blackbird killed at Belvidere last
winter was banded in Massachusetts
in 1931, according to .information re
reived by H. K. Jordan, a colored
man, who shot the bird on the farm
of Dr. E. S. White.
Jordan fired into a covey of black
birds. When he picked up the birds
he had killed, one of them, somewhat
smaller than the average blackbird,
was found to have a band on one lesr.
asking that the fiftder notify the Bu
reau of Biological Survey at Wash
ington.
A letter received last week from
W. C. Henderson, Acting Chief, stat
ed that the bird was a Cowbird and
was banded August 8, 1931, at North
Eastham, Cape Cod, Mass., by Oliver
L. Austin. 1
The letter stated that by means of
these numbered metal bands impor
tant investigations relative to the
migrations and other facts in the life
histories of North American birds are
being advanced. The bands are at
tached to' the birds by volunteer co
operators, both in the United States
and Canada, who serve without pay.
Success in the birdbanding work if
therefore dependent upon the report
of persons in both countries on such
banded birds as come to their atten- i
don.
Migratory waterfowl have been
banded in large numbers at more than
60 . stations scattered over the conti
nent and have .beei recovered as far
south as the northern part Of South
America.-. Small . song birds have
been banded in still greater numbers,
and many interesting facts concern
ing their movements are being discov
ered. These data' are not only of
scientific importance but also are of
much service in the administration of
this valuable wild-life resource. The
Biological Survey, accordingly, de
sires to nave a report on every
ed bird that may be recovered.
Prepare To Plant,
Using Good Seed
The season is at hand for the
planting of farm crops in North
Carolina and alert farmers will see
that they have a plentiful supply of
good seed on hand.
The recent continuous rains over
most of the State -will delay planting
somewhat but will give farmers the
needed opportunity to get all of their
planting, seed in readiness," says P.
H. Kime, plant breeding' agronomist
of the North,.. Carolina Experiment
Station. "Usually Jt wai pay to re

GOOD STORY Here's one that's
being told around the State Capitol
these days. Senator Harries New
man, chairman of Senate finance com
mittee, of Jewish blood,--(according to
the story) was talking to Represen
tative Tarn C. Bowie, of Ashe. "1
like the Jews very much," Bowie is
reported to have said,' adding, "I am
going to run for the United States
Senate." Whereupon Newman is said
to have replied, "I like the Gentiles
very much, Mr. Bowie, and I aid go
ing to run for Lieutenant Governor."
Believe it or not, but it makes a good
story.
these "parts as the dictator of Ashe
and the man 'who led the economy
bloc in the Legislature of But
the Ashe man has not been quite' as
stormy this session and a lot of his
fellow members ; are saying nice
things about hinu It's not much trou

that some improvement in the parole

PROMOTED Senator Lee L.
Gravely, of Nash, did himself some
good as chairman of the Upper
house's appropriations committee and
went down the line in opposition to
the State's general sales - tax Now
friends of Senator Gravely are pro
mpting him to run -for '-the United
States Senate against-Ji Iff . Baile.
But the State Senate 'apparently la
enough for Mr. Graveftw t least he
has continued so far to-tum a deaf
ear to the demand that he seek to
hitch his wagon to a Mghe tar. t
BIG MISTAKE One Washington
correspondent for a North Carolina
publication got his wires, crossed on
the Rayburn bill which would put al
most complete control of power com
panies within the hands of the Fed
eral government This - "special"
wrote that Tar Heel representatives
in both houses of Congress? were reL
cemng numerous communicationa in
favor of the bill. Admitting that he
was all wet this same, correspondent
later wrote that he was mistaken and
that the letters, telegrams- and tele
phone calV were in . opposition to the
Rayburn bill A let of the natives of
this State have. a share or- two of
stock in power companies and others
are of the opinion that it is-bad
policy to give up State regulation to
the Washington bureaus. Freight
rates in the hand of -the Interstate
Commerce Commission have helped
form such opinion. ; ' .."
THREAT Former Lieutenant Gov
ernor R. T. Fountain, who . was de
feated in 1982 by Governor. Ehring
haus is predicting that the next
Governor of North Carolina 'will not
be a friend of the Sales Tax. It's
hard to find friends of the three per
cent retail levy but it's also noticable
that. Fountain ran on an aftH-sales
tax platform and that he is an an
nounced candidate against Senator J.
W. Bailey for the Eastern Senate seat
In 1986. ; The same sales tax threats
were hurled in 1931 when it was. gen.
erally known that Mr. Fountain fav
ored such a tax on certain jiseleeted
commodities. " . ;; ' '':f
