would be progressively liberalized until the
two are on a comparable basis.
This is a more hopeful attitude than is US
ually shown by railroad Arrangements, but
there is ground for it. The public is learning
that we cannot stringently regulate and high
ly tax our foremost transport industry-which
is likewise our foremost employer and pur-
chaser Of supplies-and at the same time al
low h~alf-regulated, under-taxed competitors
to take its business away, without bringing on
disaster. And public opinion must compel the
lawmakers to act.

$500 FOR GASOLINE TAX EVADERS

The state of Tennessee is offering a reward
of $500 for information leading to the arrest
and conviction of persons or firms evading
gasoline tax payments Of $500 or more. Many
sleuths are said to be on the trail of evaders.
There is good reason for this. Gasoline tax
evasion has cost state government millions of
dollars, and should be relentlessly prosecuted.
But it might be a still better idea to keep that
and all other special and 'class" taxes down to
levels where there would not be enough prof.
it in evasion to tempt the dishonest.

OMMENTS

Would Lessen The Penalty Imposed
On Delinquent Taxpayers.
To the Editor:
In this day when thousands of large
and small property owners are close
o ~destitution, would it no be the
part of wisdom on the part of the city
administration to remit excess real es-
tate charges at the end Of the year
rather than have them accumulate at
the rate Of twenty-one per cent. per
mum for the first four months of
delinquency? The burden Of meeting
the original charge is now most diff
cult, but under present conditions to

His Third Cut In Salary Since Last

To the Editor:
Today the "boss" notified us, can
other salary cut" the third since last
Thanksgiving. This is the last straw
that breaks the camel's back. Hereto

rious C u for non-payment of va

neck.
There is certainly no sense in con-
tracing any more bills, when you
cannot see your way to pay them re-

THE
Tower

Mr.. Henry Bourne, Commander,
N. c. Division, American Legion.
My dear Mr.. Bourne:
You and your fellow L~esionnaires
of North Carolina are due common
dalton and congratulations upon your
achievement in obtaining jobs for H.
900 unemployed men in your cam
paign during the last three months.
While the number of men thus aided
doubtless is not a large percentage of
those who were unemployed when the
campaign began, but benefits to those
for whom jobs were found and to
their families is beyond estimation.
The effort must be regarded as a NC
cess and a blessing to the many thous-
ands of families affected by it.
GOVERNOR MATTHEW Rowan.
State sPatrolmen High and Adams,
Salisbury, N. c.
Gentlemen:
l desire to congratulate you on your
roundup of the rubber tired trains
overload trucks-which have beer
operating on the Main Street of the
state, in violation of the laws of the
state.
The 1881 legislature passed laws re.
stricting the buses and trucks in thei1
operation, limiting these vehicles If
size, weight, speed, etc. (The bill
were introduced and sponsored BY
Rowan's two representatives in th'
house of representatives,. Further reg
ulations are necessary if we are to pro
tect our hard surface roads. However
if the present laws are enforced, con
siderable relief will be afforded.
Judge Clyde Gooch, recently, il
passing sentence upon two defendants
indicted for operating overloaded
trucks, imposed heavy fines. His judg
ment has been heralded by the pres
of the state as wise and comrnendable
The sentiment in this county is yer,
strong for the strict regulation of tn
large vehicles.
In the regulation of the trucks AM
buses operating over our highway,
the letter of the law should be carrie'
out. I am glad to see that you are en-
forcing these provisions.
GOVERNOR MATTHEW Rowan

further penalize the people is more
than doubtful policy.
One fully realizes the fact that the
city has its own financial burdens and
obligations, but to break the back of
thousands of small home owners is
hardly justified.
The effort of our City Collector to
effect a saving for the city has met
with little response, for the reason
that taxpayers have no ready money
wherewith to meet these obligations.

Next PerA4bs WessAaHHear That TIE
"News Hounds" Did The Kidnat-
ping To Provide A Good Story.
To the Editor:
1t is hard to believe our police
heads lack the intelligence possessed
by the English or French, but figure
it out for yourself. There is a posi-
bility that the remuneration is great
er IN the criminal fleld than In the
detective and thus all the brilliant
men turn criminals. Then there are
the various newspapers who must
print something about the crime and
they hound the Police Department I'M
til they are given a lot about what
this or that person thinks. 1t is i'm
possible for any person or persons to
do their best if they have a bunch of
busybodies sticking their noses into
something that should remain hidden
until the proper time to present it has
arisen. On the other hand, the heads
of the police are to blame for giving
information t the news hounds. If by
mistake a criminal is apprehended then
the papers glorify him to such an ex-
tent all the small boys desire to be
criminals when they grow up.
l ask anyone how can the people
expect results so long as these condi-
lions exist? H. A. P.

The Bidding


 South started the contracting with one spade. West ovcrcafled with two hearts, North went to two spades, East passed. South showed his other biddable suit by bidding three clubs. West passed and North went to four spades which bought the contract.
 The Play
 Vests proper opening from the ace king of hearts is the king of hearts. A small heart is played from dummy. East plays the en- couraging eight and the declarer the five. West continues with the ace of hearts, dummy plays the seven, East echoes with the six spot, and declarer plays the nine. West continues with another heart, the jack Is played from dummy and East plays the queen.
 Would you trump with the five of spades? If 50. your contract will be defeated. You have q los- ing diamond in your hand and only four trump. It is quite like iy that you will find four trump in one of the opponents hands and you will need all four of your trump to pick up those of the opponents. However. you have a losing diamond and ''now's the time to lose It." So discard that three of diamonds on the queen of hearts.
 Now, regardless of what East returns, the declarer Is bound to go game. If diamond is re- turned, 1t can be won in either hand. the trump picked up and all of the clubs are good. East, ir all probability, would return spade, but the declarer still has his four trump left and could now pick up the four trump in th' West hand and make his contract
 While this play looks very sim pie, 1t is surprising how often 1t | missed even by the expert. It Il necessary to bid four card suit in contract. and you should mak' a thorough study as to how t properly play four card suits.
