OPEN FIRE AGAINST
NEW AMENDMENT
North CaroIinians See Men.
ace to State in Proposed
Tax Exempt Ban.

The first shot In opposition to the
Presidents proposal for a constitu-
tional Amendment prohibiting the is
suance Of tax exempt securities was
nred today by Gov. Morrison. OF
North Carolina 1t a conference with
the two senator's and members OF
the House from his state. The con.
ference was held in the Office Of Sena-
tor Simmons. at the Capitol.
Gov. Morrison strongly opposed
the Presidents recommendation that
the states and municipalities be pro-
hibited from issuing tax-exempt Sc
curities. The purpose of his visit
was to devise ways and means with
the members of Congress from his
state to prevent the passage Of the
joint resolution providing for such
constitutional amendment as that
proposed by the President.
He pointed out that the states and
the municipalities and counties would
be greatly hampered In carrying or
their improvements II anything was
done which would make it more diff
cult to sell the bonds to raise money
for the improvements. He said also
that the states in reality got more
revenue from being able to sell the
bonds at a good price than they would
from any taxes which might be i'm
posed upon them.
He pointed out that North Carolina
along with other states. Is engaged al
present upon an extensive program OF
public improvements. including the
building of good roads. He insisted

Great Britain: Lord Robert Cecil and
John Robert Clynes. labor leader. ad-
dressed meeting. under auspices of
the British League of Nations Union.
yesterday afternoon on the subject of
the league of nations. The hall was
crowded and the speakers were ac-
corded hearty reception.
The Chilean minister. who presided.
said that the league now was In the
position where it's organization was
completed and the world was begin
nfng to reap the harvest of its bene-
nts. The league had reached that
stage where 1t had shown the world
II was needed as the only means Of
insuring lasting peace and the only
means Of bringing about disarma-
ment: The league was being appre-
they were members or not. and 1t was
up to the league to become the most
vital force of order, and all nations
should seek membership.
Benefits to He Recognized.
Many did not realize the power of
the league and demand to see the
benefits before they give due credit
continued the minister. but the time
would soon come when these benefits
would be recognized: then the league
would assume its rightful place as the
tribunal of all nations.
Referring to the pan American con-
ference to be held in 1928, he ex-
planned that this al-American gath
erfng did not conflict with the league.
or with the obligations which the
American members had contracted to-
ward it.
1.-The essence of tho league" he
added. ''is the spirit Of cooperation

out by the league for the entire world

'The existence of the -Ameri-
can conference is a further hope for
the league since it permits the be-
lief that time will witness the birth
Of a league which will include all
the powers. The leagues ideals in
spire meetings such as those at
Washington. Genoa and Lausanne.
This is a step toward the ideal league
to come
Lord Robert Cecil and the other
speakers deplored attempts by va
rious nations to deal with reparations
and allied debts themselves. asserting
that the league was in a position
to settle such questions without de-
lay. He declared that the league
within few years will be able to
effect stable disarmament on land

The ambition of the Harding ad-
mintstration. Of course. Is to fulall
tho pledge made for some kind OF as
sociation Of nations in place OF the
alleged supergovernment OF the
league Of nations. The latest de-
velopment Is the idea OF making a

such a treaty. France can help ma
