men who were defeated in the last

No less than 81 ELAINE ducks

The general feeling is that the

means a special session of Congress
next March. A special session is

Asks Sales Tax
And Bank Reform Laws

President Hoover told congress
Tuesday how he thought the bud
get might best be balanced and the
nation restored to prosperity. He
recommended a general sales tax,
wholesale governmental economics,
and particularly emphasized re-
form of the banking laws.
His proposal submitted in his

the members, ranging from WARM
praise to sharp criticism and in
difference.

the communication which, many
prohibition-minded members wers
quick to note, made no reference
to legalizing and taxing beer.
A good many were inclined te
look askance at the sales tax pro-
posal, which aroused a bitter fight
and eventually was defeated last
year. A recommendation for :
federal payroll cut averaging l4.s
per cent also was regarded as the
forerunner of a battle.

I0WnSmen
Are "Wet"
Paper Makes
Local Survey
Majority More Interested In
Business Picking Up Than
In Dry LaW
While Many Believe Repeal Would
Result In Bettering Present
Conditions

Citizens of Salisbury and Rowan
county favor the repeal Of the
18th amendment to the federal
constitution, according to cur
sorry survey made this week by a
representative of The Watchman.
Some opposed tampering with
the constitution but a majority of
those approached favored outright
repeal. Others favored only light
wines and beer.
Following are some of the COM
ments:
II don't give a damn whether
they repeal the liquor law or not
just SO they pass some legislation
that will help business and alleviate
suffering" n Main Street mer-
chant declared.
81 favor outright repeal de-
clared another Main Street business
man. II like a drink occasionally
but l am afraid of the bootleg var
iety. If they give us light wines
and beer, I am going to make an
honest effort to stop drinking
liquor"
An attorney said:
"In the first place l have never
felt the 18th amendment was con-
stitutional. 1t seems to me to be
a violation Of a PERSONS rights. In
the second place, l do not believe
it can ever be enforced; and final
ly, 1 believe the proper regulation
and control Of liquor by the states
is the only sensible solution of the
prohibition question. For these
reasons, I am strongly in favor of
the repeal of the 18th amend
ment."
One of Rowan's best farmers
declared:
81 want to see the prohibition
law repealed. l believe it would
result in higher prices for farm
products and also bring about bet
ter moral conditions in this coun-
try. If a man wants liquor, he
will get it. Why not let him get
it legally? Then, too, a stiff gov
eminent tax would help to reduce
other tax burdens that we now
carry"
This from a b~ootlegger:
II don't care if they do repeal
the liquor law. If they should do
this, l will go into the liquor bust
ness on a bigger scale; probably
under government supervision"
Said a doctor:
II believe the repeal of the liquor
laws would reduce the amount of
drinking in this country; certainly
it would reduce the i'll effects from
drinking liquor. Good liquor and
bootleg liquor are entirely two diff
ferent kinds of drink. If a person
drinks liquor made out of the right
kind of ingredients and also in the
right manner, it might be used
more as a stimulant than a drink.
Whereas, bootleg liquor could
never be used benefcially by any
one, in my opinion"
While on the other hand, we
have:
II favor the prohibition law"
declared one minister. eff it is re-
pealed, l predict the return of the
saloon, or something equally as
bad, and this, in my opinion, would
result in worse moral conditions
than we now have in this country.
I do not believe repeal would do
