GASOLINE DEALERS
VIOLATE NEW LAW
[Continued from First Page]

COHfinHed from First Pdge]
notified, although the law does not
require notification, the Justice lost
no time in imposing fine.
The arrests were made by Officer
Session of the State Police on in
formation furnished by the State
Treasurer's office. In commenting on
the arrests State Treasurer George
S. Williams said: 81 cannot under
stand why legitimate gasoline deal
ers have refused to take out their
licenses when the law was designed
to protect them against the price
cutting tactics which they protest.
In any event we propose to see that
every dealer takes out this special
license and expect to see that heav-
Ter fines are imposed the longer
they delay" The yearly license is
only So, which does not cover the
cost of the supplies furnished to the
dealers and certainly is small
amount to pay for the protection 1t
affords him.

Washington Now
Favored To Win
By Odd Of 7tolO

NEW YORK. Sept. 23.-(UP).
Washington is favored to beat the
New York Giants in this year :
world series. according to quota
tions announced last night by
Jack Doyle, Broadway betting
commissioner.
Doyle quoted 7 to 10 against
Washington winning the classic
which opens at the Polo Grounds
on October 3. and II to 10 against
the Giants.
In other words persons betting
on Washington to win will receive
II for 10 riSked if the Senators
take four of the possible sever
games. while Giant hackers would
receive p for their 10. in case of
a New York victory.
A peculiar feature of DOyle'S
prices is that the Giants are ia
vored to win the opening game,
although Washington is the series
choice. Doyle offers 4 to 5
against New York for the first
game and even money against the
Senators.

Mrs. O'Berry Has Biggest
Job In State On
Hand Now
Bv !. G.. BASKERVILI.
The Timcs-Ncws Bureau
Sir Walter Hute!

RALEIGH. Sept. 23.-One of
the busiest state officials here
now and one who is handling one
of the biggest and most difficult
jobs in the entire state and right
now a much bigger job than
anyon eever thought it would be
is Mrs. Thomas O'Berry, direc.
tor of the governors office OF
relief. For while the job 10
directing the regular relief work
in the state is tremendous task,
the new problems that have been
added by the recent hurricane IN
the eastern part of the state
have made it about the biggest
and most difficult Job in the en-
fire state. But the increased
work and added responsibilities
are not worrying Mrs. OBerry,
who has already gone with rellef
and Red Cross workers into de-
vastated sections in order to get
better idea of the needs and
how to care for them.
The need for aid is acute IN
MANY sections and we are try
ing to meet this need now and
relieve the suffering as quickly
as possible, without bothering
about red tape" Mrs. O'Berry
said yesterday before leaving
for the New Bern area where
she is going to make another per-
sonal investigation into cOndl-
tions and confer with Red Cross
officials. 'From the very mo-
ment heard of this hurricane
and the damage it did. | have
tried to act as quickly as possible
to provide relief funds for the
affected areas without regard
to red tape or anything else. For
at times like these, the thing to
do is to save lives and provide
food and clothing for the de-
stitute with as little delay as
possible. That is why we have
already sent the checks for the
September allotments to the
counties needing immediate relief
funds, and have assured them
that some way or other we Will
send as much more as is needed
as soon as possible"
The Red Cross is proving of
inestimable assistance and has

fact we were organized in every
county and had our workers
right at hand in every county,
there is no doubt that the sui
fering would have been much
greater than it has been. And 1t
has been enough as it was. We
were the first on the scene and
are now trying TO do the best
we can until the Red Cross can
get It's workers and organization
Sc set up. Then we will work to-
gether, of course.
Mrs. O'Berry has only the
highest praise for the many, re-
lief workers who have been
working night and day, travelling
hv boat and even wading through
water for miles in order to take
food and clothing and medical
supplies to those made homeless
by the hurricane. A great many
of these relief workers are wo-
men. but they have stopped at
nothing and have carried on IN
spite of the greatest difficulties
Mrs. O'Bcrry said.
The rehabilitation needs from
now on are going to be tremend-
Gus and probably much more
than the immediate needs, Mrs.
O'Berrv said, pointing out that
hundreds of families that form
erlv were on self supporting
basis now have nothing. While
this correspondent was talking to
her, Mrs. O'Berry had tele-
phone call from New Bern, tell
ing of condition on Cedar Is
land. Before the hurricane nj
the island, 324 people lived there
in Sc houses. Only 16 Of these
Sc houses were left standing
and all of these were damaged
and now need repairs. All the
others were destroyed. The 1924
people on the island are at pres,

houses.

tute persons and families that
were not previously on relief,
provided the state relief office
will continue to care for those
for whom it has already been
providing, Mrs. O'Berry said.
This plan should not materially
increase the burden on the relief
office after the first few weeks
are over.
"The relief office, of course,
is not a disaster relief agency,
while the Red Cross is a disaster
relief organization" Mrs O'Berry
said. "But when this disaster
came, the thing to do was to
give as much relief as soon as
possible-thcrc was no time to
split hairs. The need was there
