., THE TRAGEDY IN A LIFE OF
VAIN REVOLT
.CBY BRUCE CATION

There is pathetic note in the otherwise
amusing announcement of beautiful youn,s
Mia Cram Cook that she is through with
the life of abnegation she had led as dis
ciple of the Mahatma Gandhi, and that
henceforth she will seek the freedom and
gaiety of the world.
The discordant note rings out from the
fear that Miss Cook will become just as
disappointed. Just as diSilluSioned, IN the
new life as she had become in the old.
This is no sad commentary on life n
general 1t is based, rather, upon what Is
known of the Cook temperament and per-
sonality, and the RIGHTEOUSNESS that char
acterized the Cook tradition.
The talented novelist and playwright,
George Cram Cook, died brOken-hearteG
and disiIlusioned man when he failed in
his revolt against the false pleasures OF
the modern world.
Now his daughter, inheriting his enc
tional traits. would cast off the very man.
tie of despair that he had left her.
The tragic life of the Great Soul OF
India, the miseries of those millions of UNI
touchables, brought about the same feel
ing of revolt which previously had caused
her to turn from the ways into which she
had been born.
Miss Cooks experience is worthy OF Sc
rious consideration by the thousands OF
young men and women who today seem to
see nothing but despair and Illustration be-
fore them, in their struggle for the finer
things of life.
They may cry out against the selfishness,
the greed and the materialism Of the day.
They even may simulate the experience OF
Miss Cook and devote themselves to regl-
men of self-denial and protestation again5I
the4modern world.
But they will find themselves returning
to the very life they abhor, and then they
will discover that the true protest, the most
effective weapon they have, is one of par
ticipatiOn in this world to the end that it
may become better means of existence
for all.
In avoiding this roundabout way of MAX
mig themselves felt in this life, our youth
of today also will avoid the tragic disap-
pdntments to which Miss Cook seems to
have HNEedoomed herself.

SlE "UisPT ilbtcI
RALEIGH, Dec. 4.-The sale
Of automobile license plates on
the opening day of the new Ii
cense period Friday was regard
ed as unusually satisfactory by
Commissioner of Revenue A. j.
Maxwell and Director L. s. Har-
ris of the motor vehicle division.
For while the total sales Friday
was not yet available, since al!
the 45 branch offices had not
been heard from, the reports
generally showed that many more
people had purchased their Ii
cense plates the first day than
had been expected.
One reason for the large num-
Der the first day, however, was
ascribed to the fact that many
people had undoubtedly been
waiting until December l to buy
new cars, so they would not have
to buy two licenses.
"If the sale of licenses only
keeps up as well as they have
started, we should have the
greater part of them sold by
January and thus have enough
money on hand for the state to
pay its January debt payments
without borrowing, as the gov
ernor hopes we can do" Director
Harris said.

RALEIGH, Dec. 4.-CollectlonS
Of state revenue in November
from all sources, including the
sales tax and gasoline tax,
amounted to $2,506,234, accord
ing to figures made public by
Commissioner of Revenue A. j.
Maxwell. Of this total, $1,O47-
776 was from the various taxes
that go into the states general
fund, while 81 ,45S, 45S came from
the gasoline tax and the sale OF
motor vehicle licenses and titles,
and went into the highway fund
The total collected in November
tbs year is $685. more than
was collected in November, 1882
but it must be remembered
that the 3 per cent sales tax was
not in effect then. The revenue
from the sales tax last month
amounted to $505, 39l, or within
about 100000 Of the difference
between the November collections
this year and last year.
The most satisfactory aspect of
the November collections, accord
ing to Commissioner Maxwell,
was the increase in sales tax col
lections, which showed an in
crease Of $137,S4S over collec-
tons in September, when they
amounted to $411,755. But the
increase IN September was partly
due to the fact that the quarter
ly returns from merchants who
had collections of less than $40
month were due then.
November sales tax collec-
tons, however, amounting to
$685., 391, exceeded October col
lections by S45.6SS and do not
represent any quarterly collec7
tons, with the result that we
fell much encouraged" Commits
sioner Maxwell said. "This would
also indicate that retail business
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1933-12-04

is picking up considerably over
the state. November returns are
from 12,GO2, while the October
returns were from 17,72O mer-
chants, because of the number
of quarterly returns"
While there are more than 20
600 registered retail merchants
on the books of the sales tax d.
vision, this does not mean that
there are almost 10000 mer-
chants who were delinquent IN
November, it was pointed out by
Director Harry Mcmillan OF the
sales tax division. 1t means IN
stead that there were about H.
600 merchants whose tax collec-
tons amounted to less than $40
in November and that they hence
did not need to make any re-
turns. The entire 10000 mer-
chants will not have to make a
return until January l, when all
of them will have to report their
collect ~ons, regardless of whether
they are more or less than SO,
it was explained.
The collections from the beer
tax in November amounted to
only $23.5O3, the lowest it has
fallen yet since the sale of beer
in the state was legalized. In
October the beer tax collections
were $3O,431; in September, $751;
376; in August, S39,930 and in
July. $39,O6S.l This would indi-
cate that the consumption of beer
has been steadily decreasing since
July and August. The arrival of
cool weather. of course, is one
reason for the decided decrease
in the revenue from beer in No
vember, since beer is admittedly
a warm weather drink.
License tax collections showed
a substantial increase in Novem-
Der over those in November of
last year, being $120,600 this
past month as compared with
$63,977 in November a year ago.
Franchise tax collection this past
November amounted to only
S12S,445, however, as compared
with $357,170 in November a
year ago. This variation is part
ly due, of course, to changes
made in the corporation franchise
taxes by the 1888 general assem-
bly,. Income tax collections
amounted to $132,619 in Novem-
Der as compared with $12S,S1S
in November of last year.
A study of the revenue col
lected from the various sources
clearly indicates, however, that
there has been no material in
crease in revenue from the regu-
The times-news. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1927-current, 1933-12-04

lar revenue sources over last year
except from the tax on gasoline.
This indicates that if the general
assembly had not enacted the
sales tax that the general fund
revenue would lack about $780,
600 a month Of being enough to
meet the operating expense Of
the state. All of the revenue
from the sales tax and> several
millions of dollars more from
other sources is going to make up
the $16,000,Q00 a year appro-
priated for the operation of the
public schools.

FEWER NEGROES
MORE WHITES in
GEORGIA JAILS

ATLANTA, Ga.-That the Ne
gro population of Georgia is be-
coming more law abiding and
the white population less so, is
indicated by d study of the coun-
ty jails of the state just made
by Miss Rhoda Kaufman, sec
rotary of the State Department
Of Public Welfare. The study
shows that in the last four years
the number of Negroes in Geor.
gia jails has decreased seventeen
percent, while the number of
white inmates has increased so
percent. "Some years ago there
were on the average of two Ne
groes in jail for each white man"
says Miss Kaufman's report,
while now the numbers are al
most equal. This is still too
high a proportion Of Negroes,
since the colored population of
the state constitutes only about
forty percent Of the total"
