SoIons Spending
Much Of Time in
Undoing Errors
The Times News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, April 28.-The pres
cnt legislature has made its share
of mistakes, like all previous ses-
sions, witnessed by the fact that
bills continue to crop up in the
general assembly to repeal o.
amend some bill already passed
by that body.
Most of the bills which have
been ratified and then repealed
have been Of a local nature. Some
members of the assembly have
sponsored local bills only to fini
that a majority of their constitu.
ents were opposed to. them, and
introduced subsequent measures
to undo what had been done.
However, the two statewide
bills that have resulted in the
most corrections, so to speak, are
the tax machinery bill and the
two administration tax relief
measures. The principal contro-
versial item in the tax machinery
act was the section pertaining to
revaluation and reassessment OF
property.
Revaiuation of a horizontal
slash was made mandatory III
some counties. and optional N
others. But since the passage OF
the bill, not a week has passed
without some local bill has crop
ped up to remove county from
certain provisions of the act and
put it in another category. =
Similarly, certain counties have
sought to be exempted from some
of the provisions of the tax relief
bills which were not exempted ar
the time the bill was passed. A
bill to amend the so-called tax re-
lief act applying to back tax sales
certificates on a statewide basis
is not pending in the senate.
This bill was ratified weeks ago,
and has created considerable OPP
position on the parts of county
commissioners. The pending bill
would repeal the provision when
allows delinquent taxpayers foF
the past five years to get III per
cent discount by settling for their
taxes in five annual installmen S,
and by paying these installments
in cash a day in advance of the
date on which they fall due.

Primary Reforms
Definitely in the
Political Disc ard
Is Another Tam Bowie
Measure Failing to
Warm up Solons

RALEIGH, April 28.-The last
vestige of the movement to sup
plant the primary elections in
North Carolina with a state con-
vention has gone a-glimmering'
The issue was killed. definitely
and finally, for another two years
at least, when the house of rep,
resentatives voted down the bill
of Representative Tam Bowie OF
Ashe, to abolish second primaries
and let pluralities rule.
Despite the fact that the bill
has been pending for weeks, the
house failed to warm up to Sc
radical departure, despite the
fact that Representative Ernest
Gardner of Cleveland, spoke fol
the bill, terming it life-saver in
,sparing candidates the "killine
process" of run-off elections. The
bill doing away with the second
primaries was compromise be-
tween committee opponents and
proponents of a bill to do away
with the primaries altogether and
to set up a state convention sys-
tenn.
Since North Carolina adopted
the primary system in 1915, vir-
tually every legislature has seen
a bill introduced to repeal the
primar. es. However, the move
ment never attracted much atten-
ton until this year, when a bill
to abolish the primary system
was introduced in the house OF
representatives bearing Is sigma
lures. After a close fight, the
bill was finally defeated in the
house committee on election laws
Representative Bowie and Other
sponsors of the original bill claim,
ed that it would be an economy
measure, doing away with the eX,
penses of primary elections, anC
that the majority of voters of the
state did not take much interest
in voting for candidates other
than for senator and governor
The proponents Of the Bowie bill
losing in their fight to get q
state convention, brought forth a
compromise measure which would
do away with only the second
primaries. Meanwhile, however
The state board Of elections drew
up bill rewriting the state cleo
ton laws and making economies
estimated to save about $4,000
and the primary abolitionists had
little ground on which to make
any economy talk.

HOUSE TAKES
Time ON BILLS
No Effort Made at Speed
Although Calendar Is
3 Congested Daily

RALEIGH, April 2S.--The state
wide bill to require creameries
and dairics to use their own bot
ties, stamped with their own
name or trademark, in dispensing
milk and cream, known as senate
bill 457 and introduced by Sen
ator Long of Halifax county, is
now on the house calendar and
due to be reached any day now.
The bill has already passed the
senate and was favorably report
ed by the house committee on
health.
The bill has the approval of
both the health authorities and Of
many of the dairymen. 1t is also
designed to break up the 'racket"
that exists in most cities where
gangs of hoodlums make a prac-
ticc of stealing milk bottles from
porches and then sell them to
dirymen. Under this bill, all
diaries and creameries would be
required to use their own bottles,
bearing their own name or trade
mark, and would prohibit the pur-
chase and use of old bottles.
Another advantage for this bill,
according to some dairymen, is
that the bottles last longer when
they are used by the same dairy,
in that a dairyman is going to
be more careful of his own bot.
ties than of those belonging to
some other dairy. 1t is agreed
that it is difficult to keep the
bottles of various milk dealers in
a single community from getting
mixed up. But most of the larger
cities already have milk bottle
exchanges where the various
creamerieS and dairymen may ex-
change their bottles. Exchanges
of this sort are already in ex-
istence in Asheville, Charlotte,
Greensboro, High Point, Durham
and some of the other large
cities in the state, and others
could be easily organized and at
very little expense, it is main
tanned.
Unless some very decided OPP
position to this bill develops
within the next day or two, it is
expected to be passed by the
house.

John Sprunt Hill
Active Senator
Is Conceded Among Best
Informed

RALEIGH, April 2S.-If all
the speeches that have been made
in the legislature since that body
convened here early in January
were recorded, it is generally
agreed here that Senator John
Sprunt Hill of Durham, would
rank up toward the top as one OF
the most wordy members of the
1888 session., The Durham sena'
tor has taken an active part IN
fighting for or against every ma
jor piece of legislation that has
come up in the senate, and also
some of the longest speeches
made this year can also be credit
ed to him.
Senator Hill has interested
himself in virtually every bill of
Importance, and frequently has
sought to delay action on bills
with which he happened not to b.
familiar. And when he happens
not to be familiar with some bill
as it comes up on the calendar,
he usually moves that the bill &c
over until the next day with the
request that he be given a chance
to "study it." This session Sen
ator Hill has kept two clerks
regularly employed collecting data
pertaining to subjects embodied
in pending legislation.
Visitors to the senator's hote!
suite here have been impressed
with the charts, records, reports
and bills that virtually fill the
room connecting his bedroom.
From the volumnious amount of
data on various subjects that the
Durham bill has collected his col
leagues are not surprised at the
vast amount of information he is
able to impart to other members
of the senate.

there is justice and common sense, the
public will be behind the plan and

Gen. johnson, therefore, will ap-
proach his duties equipped not only
with the technical features of the in
dustrial control scheme but with well
developed philosophy regarding its
workabilty. He has already made a
name for himself as an able admins
traitor and executive. He is credited
with having originated the selective
draft of 1917 and made himself largely
instrumental in its execution. He was
a member of the War Industries Board
during the war, and formed there
close relationship with Bernard Baruch,
which has been since maintained. He
planned and directed in the be-
ginning the purchase, storage and
traffic divisions of the General Staff,
which were in effect from August, 1918,
to the end of the war. Since the war
he has been engaged in manufacturing.

selection Of Gen. johnson, the President
is busily at work picking the staff which
will assist him and that it is proposed
to start the machinery for making the
