WOULD ATTACHE N. c.
HIGHWAY PATROL TO
GOVERNORS O FFIC E
The Times News Bureau

The Times News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel
RALEIGH. Feb. II. - There
have been several proposals be-
fore this session of the general
assembly to take the state high
way patrol from the state high
way commission, but Senator
Kirkpatrick of Mecklenburg has
come through with a brand new
idea. He has now offered bill to
transfer the patrol to the COVER
nor's office.
While customarily all proposals
involving the consolidation of gov
ernmental units are referred to
Senator Larry Moore's reorganiza-
ton committee, the Mecklenburg
senator's bill was referred to Ju-
dietary Committee No. 2 on re-
quest of the introducer, and no
objection to this course was Of
fered in the senate.
Senator Kirkpatrick wanted his
bill to 90 to Judiciary No. 2 for
obvious reasons. He introduced a
bill last week transferring the
highway patrol to the department
of revenue. and the bill went to
the reorganization committee,
which proposed in its recent rec
concentrations a plan to transfer
the highway patrol to the depart
ment of revenue and impose a
number of new duties on the pa
troll.
The Mecklenburger and the reor-
ganization committee hold differ
ent IDEAS about The matter. SEN
ator Kirkpatrick believes that tho
patrol should be taken from M
der the highway commission, but
he does not believe that it would
be advisable to overload the pa
troll with a number Of other du-
ties. -,
Thus, knowing that he could
not exnect favorable report on
his bill from the REORGANIZATION
committee, Senator Kirkpatrick
offered a new bill transferring the
patrol to the governors Office.
Sena or Kirkratrick himself is q
member of Judiciary No. 2 ard
will defend his new proposal be-
fore that body when it comes up
early next week.

would correct an impression
among negroes here that defend

Negroes believe that instead of
death. the negroes convicted OF
capital crime are forced to spend
the remainder of their lives at
hard labor on the state prison
farm.

charge of murder in the Staying

DON'T QUOTE ME

WASHINGTON, Feb. II (UP)
When Senator Huey P. Long
of Louisiana plays golf, buys
Bibles, or goes to bed he does it
in spectacular fashion.
! His golfing costume is moth
. ing short Of gorgeous, his Bible
buying is magnanimous and his
going-to-bed is spectroscopic.
When the senator hies him.
self to the links he does his
hieing in a lavendar sweater.
No ordinary lavendar like an
orchid or a funeral car-but a
flaming, sunburst. fuzzy laven-
der, a lavender like the sun COM
ing up like thunder on the road
to Mandalay, a lavender which
makes the caddies blink, fright
ems the robins and causes the
horses on tn ebridle paths to
shy.
Upon this gorgeous purple
chest the senator wears an en-
broidered al" in glittering yell
low. The al" may stand for
Long" Louisiana" Or "Luck."
The senator won't say.
His Bible buying cost the
"King Fish" exactly $3.50, be-
cause he wasn't paying much at
tention in the senate stationery
store. He wanted Bible for a
BIT of preaching in the senate
and so bought one. He was
pocketing his change when he
noticed a still larger Bible on
the shelf. So he bought that
one, too, with the comment that
1.-TWO Bibles won't be any too
many"
Going to bed is a ritual that
the. senator keeps Kaleidoscope
through frequent visits to the
haberdashery. Wherever any of
his pajamas-the tropical green
ones. the fried egg yellow ones,
the furnace door red ones or the
ocean-going blue ones-become
faded he replaces them. The
senator still continues his old
New Orleans custom of receiv-
ing early visitors in his paja-
mas. Invariably the visitors are
impressed.

METRE SYSTEM

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 20 QN.
S0.-America's premier track
coach, Lawson Robertson, of the
University of Pennsylvania, the
man who coached Uncle Sans
Olympic Track team, is unquali-
fiedly opposed to adoption of the
metric system Of measurements
for field and track records.
The plan may have the sane
ton and best wishes of the wide
ly respected intercollegiate asso-
citation of amateur athletics of
America but to Robertson adop-
tion of the metric system means
only Standardization with conti-
mental Europe"
"The advocates Of this change
apparently think that is more
important THAI the perpetra-
tiOn Of our athletic customs,
traditions and records, which
are part of the English speak
ing race" Robertson declared.
With it's heritage Of RESPONSE
bility, Robertson thinks sit would
seem incumbent upon the asSocia-
ton to proceed very slowly in the
introduction of such radical
changes as are called for by the
substitutions of the metric sys-
tenn"
The I. S. A. A. A. A. proposed
that if the Amateur Athletic
Union agreed to do likewise, the
association would authorize use Of
the metric system for both indoor
and outdoor championship meets
Of 1898. The A. A. U. has since
given its approval, and now the
I. C. A. A. A. A. is preparing to
put the change into effect as far
as possible.
