Miss Hurley fairly busy. Still, when she had
the spare time she used it in making the rounds
Of the film studios over and over again, seeking
that engagement which It seemed never would

Each morning she left her home in New

Marian Hurley was merely a model. She wanted
to be a motion picture actress, but somehow or
other she could not find the magical password to
the office of that parsonage Of awe and influence
known in the film studios as the casting director.
She told her ambitions and her disappointments
to no one, not even to her family. Just buckled
down to the point in hand, did little Marian Hur-
ley, and waited for a break in her fortunes

fancy steps in dancing when she found herself

cause it is only forty -fve minutes from Broadway.

ODDS ON CARPENTER.

Manhasset, N. Y, July 2.-'I've
had good sleep and feel fine. This
was the smilig comment of Carpen-
tier as he came out of the house at
7:45 this morning.
He arose at $50 and indulged
in fifteen minutes of setting up exer-
else to "open his eyes" as his trainer
expressed it. He ate a light break kfast
and lounged around the house until
1880 when he emerged for a little
light exercise along the road.
The confidence of his training
camp comrades in his ability to de-
feat Dempsey was displayed in the
announcement, that several had bet
several thousand dollars that Georges
would win by knock out. They said
they had been given odds and 5 to

OBJECT TO PAYING
AUTO MANUFACTURER TAX"
(By Max Abernethy)

Raleigh, July 2.-Automobile dis
9tributing concerns that refuse to pay
the five hundred dollars State ":lan-
nfacturers' tax" are not only violat-
ing the law but are subject to prose-
cution, so holds Attorney General
= James S. Manning.
Despite the attorney generals rul-
ing however, law is being contested
by automobile men over the State
sDn the grounds that preferred rate
IS allowed North Carolina automo-
bile manufactures. There are only
two concerns coming under the pro-
visions of the law which grants
$500 reduction my reason of their
location within the State. Approx
mately 80 other makes of automo-
b1les distributed in the State are
manufactured outside of North Caro-
lima.
The manufacturers tax was writ
ten upon the statute books in 1917
and since that time the tax has been
collected, netting about $45,OO per
year. 1t was this act that taxed home
concerns only $1O0.
In an opinion recently the United
States Supreme Court held in a case
similar to the North Carolina one
that. there shQalld be no discrimina-
tion against gs.manufacturers.
Such an fss held, would be
an: violation of the eansf rights

sbe an attempt Ito reguisss lat efstate
Commerce !.
~ The effect of the high courts re-
sg7cent ruling, it is argued here's is that
@the two North Carolina automobile
concerns must pay not $10O but
$500. The ruling does not mean that
the State cannot collect the five hun
dred dollars tax from the automo-
bile manufacturers and distributors;
it simply means that the foreign man
ufacturers are put on a parity with
theehome companies. Thus the dis
rcrimination is removed.
Some State distributors, however.
are contesting the collection of the
tax and intend to send a test case
to the supreme court to try the val
idity of the attorney generals. ruling.
Until there is an opinion from the
supreme court the attorney generals
ruling holds and the State manu-
1acturers' tax must be paid by the
automobile distributors. There does
not appear any way out.

THE ASSAD-KANNON CASE.
The p. d. Gold Publishing Co.,


Wilson, n. C.
Dear Sirs:-
We saw the article which stated
that Kannan had won victory over
HI. Assad. On the other hand the jury
found that H. Assad had a three year
contract with Kannan for the rent of
the latter's house. The facts are that
Kannan took an advantage of H.
Assad while he was sick in the hos
pital and had a writ of ejectment is
sued, which III. Assad contested in
the courts.
The case came up for trial this week
before Judge Calvert with Messrs.
w. A. Lucas and o. p. Dickerson re-
presenting H. AssaG and Messrs
Connor and Finch representink Kan
an.
The attorneys of Mr.. Assad made
a mention to give Mr. Assad a new
trial on the issue as to the three
years contract, and discussed the fact
that the defendant Assad had been
sick and for this reason could not
comply with the terms of the con-
tract.
Mr.. o. p. Dickinson at this point
made a proposition to his honor that
Mr.. Assad put up cash bond cover
ing three years rent, to carry out all
the provisions of the contract, but
this his honor refused to consider and
Mr.. Dickinson took an appeal to the
Supreme court.
Yours very truly,
H. ASSAD.

THE APPOINTMENT OF TAFT.

Z The appointment OF Ex-President
Taft to the position of Supreme Court
Justice of the United States gives
nearly universal satisfaction since a
Republican was to secure the place.
There is probably no man in the
country today more adequately fitted
for the place by reason of his attain
ments,. ability and experience.
His experience on the bench, in
politics, and as Governor General of
the Philippines gives him world
wide knowledge of affairs that
should stand him in good stead
while he is interpreting both domes-
