HObbs's Book on North Carolina
Receives Praise from Reviewers

creator of the science of home
state social-economics.' The
author thinks that a record of
the North Carolina of 1929 will
be interesting and useful to pos
terity as a mile-post, as it were,
in our progress. North Caro-
linians,' he writes, know so
many things about the state that
are not true. Various agencies,
some of them official, have gross
ly misinformed the people about
our economic and social condi-
tions. An illustration is the
beautiful volume issued by the
State Department of Conserva-
ton and Development, entitled
North Carolina, the Fifth State
Today. By no stretch of the
imagination can North Carolina
be pictured as the fifth state.
The present author has compiled
more than a thousand tables in
which the states have been
ranked on some fair comparable
basis, and in consolidating a
large number of these tables has
discovered that both the arith-
metical and modal average rank
Of North Carolina is forty-third,
or sixth from the bottom. This
may not be as we would like to
have it, but it is the situation
as revealed by an analysis of re-
cent reliable data. This volume,
therefore, is an attempt to pre-
sent North Carolina as she is,
and not as we would like her
to be or as we would like to have
others think she is.
Such an attempt surely is as
admirable as it is rare. Perhaps
we are better prepared to digest
Mr.. Hobbs facts in our present
state of comparative depression
than we would have been a few
years ago.
"It is encouraging that in the
course OF the self-eXamlnatlOn
conducted by Mr.. Hobbs we find
much more about North Caro-
lima to be proud of than to re-
gret, even though we are forty
third in line. His book is much
more inspiring than depressing.
In fact, the record Of the rebuild
ing of an old commonwealth out
of the ruins of war which the
book sets forth is, even allow
ing for all our present defects,
a great story which if told with
out establishment and otherwise
than through a megaphone is
perforce impressive.'
Miss Lewis finds one "glaring
OMISSION" the absence of infOr-
nation about the social condl-
ton of factory workers. For
the reason that the information
appears not to be procurable she
does not blame the omission
upon Mr.. Hobbs. In this con-
nectiCn she recalls the fruitless
efforts of a University depart

North Carolina, Economic
end Social" by S. H. Hobbs, Jr.,
of the University's department
of rural social economics, has
received high praise in recent
reviews.
THE volume issues from the
seminary of DR.. E. c. Branson,
the founder of realistic social
studies at Chapel Hill," writes
H. l.. Mencken in the Mercury.
1T is, in form, a general survey
of the state, based largely upon
records accumulated by DR..
Branson and his associates, and
in substance it is careful, frank
and unafraid. The prosperity
that the North Carolina boosters
talk of. is subjected to an unsen-
timental analysis, and shown to
be full of illusion. A small group
Of North Carolinians is growing
enormously rich, and some
what larger group is accumulat-
ing wealth on d lesser scale, but
the great majority of the peo-
pie are still poor, and many of
them are steadily growing poor
er.
Large and rich areas of the
state are almost wilderness. Re-
claimed and put to the ploW,
these areas might support a
huge population; as it is they
are useless, and policing and
otherwise governing them puts
a cruel burden upon the rest Of
the state. It's public debt, main
ly created for the purpose Of
building roads, is almost as large
as that Of all the other Southern
states taken together, and it suf-
ferS from archaic and inequi-
table tax laws and from out
worn forms of local government.
In the piedmont region, despite
the sweating in the cotton mills,
there is general prosperity, but
in the mountains and along the
coast times tend to be hard.
"Dr. Hobbs, as | have said,
does not hesitate to write plain
ly about what he discovers, no
matter how unpalatable it may
be to idealists, Nor is he shy
about offering remedies, some of
them of very drastic nature
The point is that North Caro-
lima is ready and willing to lis
ten to such candor-mOre, pay
for it. That is probably the
main reason why the state is
going ahead"
Here are some passages from
Miss Nell Battle LeWis's review
Of the book in her column in the
NeWs and Observer:

first of it's kind to appear in this

 After 50 hours in a disabled boat among the ice foes of storm tossed Lake Ontario, Hampton said, the approach of a coast guard boat, usually resulting in q race or an OK change of shots or both, was one of the most welcome sights in all his experiences on the lakes.
 Hampton's launch. carrying 130 cases of liquor became disabled on Tcsday night.

 When q line was hcavcd from the government boat Hampton said he thought 1t was case of jumping from the frying pan into the fire, being sure the coast guard would tow them into an American port and put them in jail.
