Employment Plans Not Yet Completed
| Miss Millicent Pond Says There Will Be Few Jobs
 in Organization

Miss Millicent. Pond of this city, Federal Unemployment directress for this state, conferred with Labor department officials yesterday on plans for employing local labor on the public works program and on highways to be constructed with federal money.
 Following the conferences, the local woman said all plans were so preliminary that nothing definite could be. announced at this time other than that there would be a registration of the unemployed in the various localities. She added that she wished to emphasize the fact that the unemployment organ ization in this state would be small and that she would have few jobs to hand out.
 Miss Pond stated that special efforts would be made to have the unemployed given jobs on local public works projects and road building. She said a specific clause in highway contracts would require contractors to employ local labor with prefence for veterans and those with dependents. The new state directress left this state last night and will immediately work on organizing her staff.

 Wanted for Robbery
 Two dangerous criminals en- tered the Tavern last night and held up the keeper and made away with about five pounds of pret. gels. They are unknown but the keeper got a very good descrip- ton of the two men.
 One was about six feet tall, light complexion, and his knees banged together, weight about 165 pounds. The other lad was about four feet tall, also light complexion and had a sailor gait, he was heard to use navy expressions which leads us to believe he is an ex-sailor. He weighs about 125 pounds.
 The guards are out securing the country. and have been ordered to bring them dead or alive. A $500 reward has been posted for the capture, or leads that would re-

mJoe and Banieese"
 Arrive In New York


 Two French Canadians who set out from their home at Tree Rivers, Canada in quest of Tame and fortune on Broadway, are the principal characters in the comedy radio sketch "toe and Banteese." The program is heard Tuesday mornings at 11:00 to 11:15 (Edst) over WBZ and WBZA. It is broad cast from the NEG studios In Springfield.
 Joe and Banteese are authentic characters. They have the knack of q labored dialogue which, while retaining it's French-Canadian flavor, is still readily intelligibie to listeners. And the sefio-corhic sit. uations into which the pair unwit- tinsly help themselves are both amusinx and thrilling.

Poppy Sale Tomorrow
Women Volunteers Working under the
Direction of Mrs. W. b. Neal

The annual poppy sale for the
benefit of disabled World War
veterans will be conducted to-
morrow by the women Of the
American Legion Auxiliary.
Completion of the arrange
ments for the sale was announc-
ed yesterday by Mrs. w. B.
Neal, chairman of the committee
in charge. More than 40 women
have been enrolled as volunteer
workers. They will sell the pop
pies at the post-office, the bank,
the drugstores, at other places in
the village, and on the Univer-
sity campus.
The standard price Of one of
the flowers is 10 cents, but fire.
quently purchasers make an ad-
ditional contribution.
Making poppies has given hun
dreds of disabled veterans en-
ployment during the winter
months. These are the only per-
sons who receive any pay in con-
nection with the poppy program.
The Chapel Hill poppy corps
is part of a national army Of
100000 women. These women
hope to place "the flower of re-
membrance" on at least ten
million coats before sunset Sat-
urday. The money they take in
will enable the Legion Auxiliary
to carry on it's relief and rehab-
ilitation work for the veterans.

FayOrs Tax Election
Z. L. A. Adopts Resolution Calling
for Supplementary Funds

Interest in the crisis brought
on by the states new school law
brought a large attendance to
the meeting of the Chapel Hill
Parent Teachers Association
Tuesday evening
The assemblage was told by
Superintendent Gwynn and
other speakers how seriously the
school here would be damaged
unless the funds to be allowed
by the state were supplemented
by local taxation. Upon a mo-
tion by Harold D. Meyer, the
association adopted unanimous
ly a resolution calling for a
special election for the pur-
pose of raising the necessary
supplements.
Mr.. Gwynn explained how
the provisions of the new law af-
fected the Chapel Hill school. If
lit were operated in compliance
with that law, without any addi-
tional money, it would be taken
off the list Of accredited schools
of the Southern Association of
Schools and Colleges. The al
lowance from the state is not
even sufficient to warm the
building properly in the winter
and to provide other essential
services.
r. J. M. Hobbs spoke upon
some features of the new law.
Mrs. Harrer was elected pres
ident of the association, George
Howard yice-president, and Mrs.
Crockford secretary-treasurer.

A Local Tax Election Will Be
Held, but What Will Be the
Limits of the District?

People in Chapel Hill are all
in a muddle over the question
of what is going to become of
the school. Nobody really un-
derstands the new law-the So
called school machinery act
and this community, like other
communities all over the state,
is looking to the newly appoint
ed school commission to clarity
the situation.
That there will be a tax cleo
ton here, to determine wheth-
er or not Chapel Hill will sup
plement with its own funds the
meagre allowance from the
state. is regarded as certain.
But there is doubt as to the ge-
ographical limits of the dis
trict in which the voting will be
done.
The state school commission
has the authority to determine
the layout of all the admins
trative units. At present the
Chapel Hill school district in
cludes very little inhabited ter
ritory outside the corporate linn
it's of the village; that is. the
school district is practically the
same as the village. But the
state commission is not obliged
to maintain the present boun-
daries for the purpose of a tax
election. 1t may include much
more territory in the district:
the whole township, or, if it so
desires, two townships or more.
The people of Chapel Hill who
favor a special tax do not
yet know themselves wheth-
er they want the vote taken
in the district as it is now
or in an enlarged district.
And some of the citizens
Though they are believed to be
in the minority do not want
vote taken at all; they would
rather be free of a special tax
and let the school sink to the
low level established by the state
for the uniform eight-months
term.
If the district is enlarged, and
if the special tax is voted, the
rate of tax will not have to be
