GIRL DIAMOND STAR
IS FEARED IN PINCH
But It's Her Own Male Playmates
Who Figure They'll Suffer, 80
She Can't Land Job.

BY the Associated Press.
CEATTLE.-The best girl base ball
y player in the Northwest-but no
team to play with-is the plight OF
Gertrude Harty, who can perform
around first base as well as lot OF
young men.
Gertrude had an honest-to-goodness
contract with Seattle semi-pro team
last wear. 1t all started when the team
played an exhibition contest with a
touring troupe of girls and Miss Harty
was added to the local lineup. After
that she remained with the mems team
and her work at first base counted In
the city league records.
The girl learned her base ball from
her dad, Jim Harty, a former semi-pro
player around the Northwest. She likes
to pitch and play first base.
Miss Harty would like to have the
boys take her more seriously and give
her q regular job, but she hasn't landed
yet this season. Semi-pro teams are
wary of trusting her feminine tosses
when the going gets tough, and Ger
trude scorns the playground ball.

could be much more easily collect

by state governments, as follows:
There is no logical reason or

state lines. There is no compel

contemplate their employment be-
yond state lines when the advan-
tages are obvious and substantial.
There is a field here for co-opera-

Maxwell said. Governor Ruby
Lafoon of Kentucky, stated at
this meeting that the failure to
balance its budget and thus force
the state to pay all its employees
and make all its purchases with
scrip, was costing the state at
least 81, 100000 a year, Mr.. Max
well said.
"This is only another instance
showing the wisdom of the 1888
general assembly in insisting up
on making enough economics and
in levying enough taxes to bal
ance the budget here in North
Carolina" Mr.. Maxwell said.
'For if our general assembly had
not balanced the budget, we
would be in just as bad a situa-
ton as Kentucky, if not worse,
since our state debt is so much
larger. Our school teachers and
state employees would also have
had to be paid in deprecated
scrip instead of in cash, as is now
the case"

RALEIGH, Dec. 19.-Most of
the people here in North Carolina
do not realize how much better
off they are than those in some
other states and do not appre-
ciate what the state government
is doing for them along many
different lines, Commissioner OF
Revenue A. j. Maxwell said yes,
terday. This applies particularly
to the school system in North
Carolina as compared with some
other states, he said.
Having just returned from q

lucky, where l learned something

county was a separate unit in
maintaining its schools, that one
fourth Of the schools in the state
were open for a term of only six
months or less and that now
many were not being kept open
at ell. He also said that there
were still 5000 one-teacher
schools in the state, only 1900
school teachers-we have $4,000
school teachers in North Carolina
and that the schools were ad-
ministered by $4,000 school COM
mltteemen and school board men,
brS.
"But even more startling and
III greater contrast was what he
had to say about the cost of
maintaining these schools in terms
of property taxes. For the state
levies a 80 cents property tax for
schools and the counties levy an
additional tax averaging about
rs cents for schools, making a
total property tax Of $1.O5 for
schools. But here in North Caro-
lima we experimental with a 10
cents property tax for schools

ed to that and now there is no
property tax, either state or

ance of the public schools in

all being paid in scrip, which is
worth only about 10 cents on the
dollar - and the salaries being
paid many of them average only
about $50 a month in scrip. or
about $24 a month in cash, in
some of the smaller counties
where the maximum county tax
of Is cents is levied, the super
intendent said. So the' teachers
in North Carolina are certainly
much better off than the teach
erS in Kentucky"
The reason the teachers in
Kentucky are paid in scrip and
the reason this scrip is only
worth about Is cents on the dol
lar, is because the last Kentucky
