School Bond Issue Held Valid.

BY unanimous decision, the North
Carolina supreme court upheld the va
lidity of the five million dollar state
bond issue constituting school build
ing loan fund available to the coun-
! ties of the state The opinion in the
case was written by Associate Justice
w. A. Hoke.
ut would present indeed an incon-
gruous and most deplorable condi-
ton" reads the opinion If the gen.
eral assembly, having thus provided
for compulsory attendance on the
public schools were not alawed to
make provisions also for adequate and
suitable housing purposes. And we
are of the opinion that the proposed
bond issue with the requirement that
the loans made to the counties be
repaid to the state is throughout
constitutional enactment and In the
reasonable exercise OF the powers con-
ferred on the authorities 10 enable
them to properly maintain the public
schools of the state"
The supreme court action was the
final ruling in the case of b. R. Lacy,
State Treasurer, VS.. the Fidelity Bank
OF Durham, controversy without ac-
ton determined before Judge w. A.
Devin in Wake county in March when
ha hold that he bond TIL,
defendant bank had contracted to pur-
chase. was valid and constitutional
in all respects.
Dr. C. +, Brooks, superintendent Of
public instruction, was delighted with
the courts opinion. Il didn't see how
the court could do otherwise he said,
but 1t is relief to know that the court
has upheld our school policy so com.
pletely 1t is the most important de-
cision in years, from a school stand
point"
Already applications have been re-
ceived from counties for the entire
five million dollars to be repaid in
twenty equal installments covering
a period of twenty years. Loans OF
one million dollars have already been
anticipated under the act of the loan
fund
The bond issue was authorized by
the general assembly In chapter 147,
Laws of 1921. and provided a fund
whereby the counties might be en-.
abed by state advances to acquire
sites to provide buildings, equipment
and repairs necessary to maintain a

ro eul!a New passenaer station.

To Build New Passenger Station.
Five years of more or less patient
waiting brought their reward when
the corporation commission ordered
the immediate construction of union
passenger stations at Kinston, Selma
and Newton, and called for plans for
similar structure to be erected by
the Atlantic Coast Line and the Nor
folk Southern at Plymouth.
Petitions were filed by Knston,
Selma and Newton in 1917 and the
commission was about to order the
stations built in all three towns when

built without delay Plans for the
three ordered have been on file for
years. Construction is ordered to be
completed within the next six months.
Kinston is the outstanding petitioner
represented in the order. The rail-
roads bought land five years ago and
were about to let the contract for a
station costing about $4,000 when the
war interviewed. The plans have been

would set up the claim that no new
