trade union leadership that the capt.
talistS are worried about but the rank
and file who they fear will not stand
by and take this smashing attack
without resistance. That it is the
rank and file they fear and that the
rank and file is moving, and with the
increased support of the Communist
Party, may swing into decisive &C
ton, is admitted by the New York
Times correspondent in London. He
says:
Zone small branch of the Ma
tional Union of Railwaymen, after
denouncing both Macdonald and
Henderson, demands that the
Trade Union Council call nation
al stOppage of work as protest
against working conditions.
"Such a demand by one small
group may be considered in itself
as negligible, but it may have some
analogy to small grass fire near
the edge of forest that IS doubly
inflammable after long drought"

NORTH CAROLINA PREPARED

Washington-Farmers throughout
America are in a better position to
face the winter, SO far as food is con-
cerned, than at any time in several
years a survey shows. North Carolina
leads in this preparedness. Farm and
club women have filled 100000
containers with fruits and vegetables.
Last year the figure was 100000.
The live-at-home movement has also
caused to be produced at home $25,-
000,00 in food and feed which in
1929 was bought outside the state.

Cases Are Scheduled For
Trial. In The Rowan
County Court On The
Morning Of Oct. 8th.
LIMITS
VEHICLE AND IT'S
LOAD TO 10 TONS
Driver And Owners Are
Arrested; Operate Out
Of Monroe; Truck Was
Carrying Load OF Lard.

The county court will on Thurs
day, October 8, try three defendants
on charges of operating trucks on the
highways of the state with excess tom
mage.
The three defendants, all from
Monroe, N. c., are as follows:
John Helms, driver.
R. H. Helms, owner.
G. A. Helms, owner.
The 1881 law allows only ten tons.
The warrants allege the truck, owned
and operated by defendants, was haul
ing a load of lard on the highways in
this county On September Fl, the We
hicle and load weighing 32,O37, or
slightly more than Is tons.
The arrest was made by G. w.
High, state highway patrolman sta
toned in this county. The warrants
inoludesbosh the driver ard the ewn-
The truck, ! Dodge truek tractor
with a semi-trailer, weighed S,4ss
pounds. The load totaled 1852. The
combined weight amounted to 32,O37,
the state contends.
The truck operates out of Monroe,
N c., but at the time it was halted
by Officer High it was carrying a
shipment of lard for Swift & Com
pany through Rowan county from
Charlotte to Danville.
The indictment, drawn by Solicitor
]. A. Dunn, is based on the following
statute passed by the 1881 legislature:
mo vehicle shall be operated on
any state highway with a combined
weight of both vehicle and load ex-
ceeding ten tons. No vehicle shall be
operated on any public highway the
weight of which resting on the sur
face of such highways exceeds six
hundred pounds upon any inch of the
tire, roller, or other support"
This is the first case of this nature
to come before Judge Gooch and is
considered a test case.
The question of whether the stat
utory provision-"both vehicle and
load" -includes truck and trailer will
probably be raised by the defense and
the conviction or acquittal of the de-
PENDANTS will most likely hinge on this
point.
Considerable interest has been man.
Tested in these cases. Attorney Cen
! eral Brummitt has been asked for an
Interpretation of the statute by truck
companies. 1t is also reported that Of
fcials of truck companies in Union
and M~ecklenburg counties will test
the legality of the statute.
