LAW OUT OF GEAR
WITH AMENDMENT
)
President Would Take Office
Before Congress Can .
Z Poll Ballots.
Nv the Associated Press. q

Sy the Associated Press.
The twentieth amendment to the
Constitution, abolishing the lame duck
session OF Congress, has put the cart
before the horse by pushing the presi-
dental Inauguration date ahead OF the
time now set for officially proclainling
the election winner.
The so-called lame duck amend
ment, which became effective October
is, moved up from March to Janu-
ary 20 the date Of Inauguration OF
q new President and Vice President.
The new assembly date Of Congress
was fixed for January each year
instead Of the first Monday of each
December.
Under, existing law, the Electoral
College meets the first Wednesday in
January next following the quadren-
nial presidential elections in Novem-
Der, to cast ballots Of their respective
States.
These ballots are sent to Congress.
The law provides joint session shall
be held on the second Wednesday in
February to poll electoral votes and
to formally proclaim the next Presi-
dent and Vice President.
Thus, as the situation now stands,
the next President and Vice President
would take Office on January 20. 1887.
or about Is days before Congress tai
lies the electoral votes and announces
the winner. Thus far there has been
no move in Congress to correct this
anomalous situation.
Congress has. however, until 1885
to enact remedial legislation Louis
Deschler. parliamentarian of the House
said today the date of the meeting of
the Electoral College undoubtedly would
oe moved up to some time in early
December and that the time for Con-
gress to poll the'electoral votes would
be fixed between January and inau-
guration day, January 90.

Because Too Many University
Alumni Are on List and
because ex-GOvernOrS
Are Not Included

The nominations for trustees
of the University have aroused
vigorous criticism.
A joint committee of the leg
lslature names trustees to sue
ceed those whose terms have ex-
pired or who have resigned or
died. 1t is a time-honored prac-
tice for the legislature to ap-
point many of it's own members
to the board, and that has been
done again this year. Eleven of
the 33 persons now nominated
are members of the legislature,
and some of these II are men,
bers of the joint nominating
committee.
The list proposed by the COM
mittee is yet to be approved-or
disapproved-by the legislature.
The criticism that greeted the
publication of the list was based
not only upon legislators choos-
ing themselves but also upon the
preference given to alumni of
the University in Chapel Hill as
compared with the alumni of
the other two units of the Great
er University, the State College
in Raleigh and the College for
Women in Greensboro. The COM
mittee was also criticized for
not nominating the two ex-
Governors, Cameron Morrison
and 0. Max Gardner.
In an editorial entitled "A
Lopsided Board" the NeaOs and
Observer says:
'"The familiar custom of legis-
lators' naming themselves and
their friends in the lobbies as
trustees of the states institu-
tions of higher learning was fol-
lowed with a vengeance when
half the new members of the
board of trustees of the Greater
University were named from the

Sales Tax Adopted
House of Representatives Approves a
Two Per Cent Levy

The North Carolina house OF
representatives, after having
rejected a 3 per cent general
sales tax, passed a 2 per cent
tax on second reading day be-
fore yesterday; before this pa
per appears the measure will
probably have been passed on
Its third reading and have gone
to the senate.
What the senate will do with
it is uncertain. There are some
who forecast that the senate
will raise the rate from 2 to 3
per cent; if it does, that may
precipitate another bitter strug-
gle in the house. However, the
prevalent opinion seems to be
that the two branches will work
out an agreement and that the

Cap'n Likes Paper
Oscar Hamilton's Dog Delights to

One of the most devoted News

early in the morning, and it be-
comes a competition between
Cap'n and me to see which gets
there first. He often wins.

front porch and sent over to ask
Mrs. Hamilton if she would lend
me hers. The servant came to
the door.

Mayors Salary Reduced
At Special Meeting Aldermen Mark
1t Down from $270 to 500

At a special meeting of the
aldermen Tuesday afternoon,
called at the request of men,
bers of the board, an ordinance
was passed reducing the salary
of the mayor of Chapel Hill
from 1910 to 800 a year. The
change goes into effect at the
beginning of the new fiscal year,
July l.
The general 10 per cent re-
duction of two years ago brought
the mayors salary down from
$500 to $270. He now receives
S22.50 a month After July l
his S10O salary will be paid in
four quarterly installments.
In support of the ordinance,
Alderman M. E. Hogan said
that the duties that the mayor
used to perform had been taken
over by the town manager, the
Judge of the recorders court,
and the town accountant. The
ordinance passed unanimously.
The aldermen consider this a
suitable time for the reduction
of the salary because the may
or's term is now about to end.
The reduction being voted be-
fore the election, no candidate
need be under any misunder-
standing as to what the salary
will be.

A Gloomy Easter Day
Rain Poured Sunday: Church -GOers
Looked Detected in the Wet

Sandwiched in between a Sat-
urday and Monday of glorious
sunshine, Easter Day in Chapel
Hill was day of gloomy wealth
er.
Dark and heavy clouds hung
low over the village. Rain
poured, and stopped, and poured
again. Women with new frocks
and hats scurried in the wet be-
tween automobiles and church
doors, and pedestrian worship
pers, protected by umbrellas,
plodded along soggy sidewalks.
Disappointed by the gray
morning, the village hoped that
the sun would break through and
give cheerful afternoon. But
no. Natures frown persisted
until it melted into the shades
lof night. Throngs of motorists
come to Chapel Hill on most
Sundays in Spring, but on this
day the streets were almost bare
of cars. The students and many
members Of the faculty being
away for the holidays, the
whole place had a deserted look.
Yet there were those who
thought that, despite the clouds
and rain, the village was un-
commonly beautiful. The trees
and the shrubs and the grass
never showed a richer green, and
the flowers, glistening with rain
drops, had a wistful charm.

OFF IN CANOE
TO FLORIDA AND
THE WEST INDIES
Bing Farrar and Fred Koch Be-
gin Adventurous Trip by
Way of the Cape Fear
CANOE Is ALL HOMEMADE

Starting off in a homemade
canoe and expecting eventually
to reach Florida and perhaps the
West Indies, Bing Farrar and
Fred H. Koch, Jr., began a jour
ney last week which is making
all the adventurous small boys
and youths of the village seethe
with envy.
They hope to make their way
farthest south through the riv-
ers and inland waterways until
they reach Miami. There, if
their luck and zest have not fall
en- low; they will consider taking
steamer over to one of the
West Indian islands-Haiti, San
Domingo, Porto Rico, or Trini-
dad, possibly shipping their ca
noe with them.
They launched the canoe in
the Cape Fear at BuckhOrn
Falls, 33 miles from Chapel Hill.
Bing's father and grandfather
took them there in an automobile
which carried the canoe on top.
They expected to go down the
Cape Fear, and then swing over
into Lake Waccamaw, and pos
sibly camp on it's shores for a
time; and then to follow Wacca-
NAV river down into the inland
waterway system which extends
through South Carolina and
Georgia into Florida.
Both have been studying
Spanish in the expectation of
using it on whatever island in
the Caribbean Sea they finally
land upon.
The canoe is of Farrar's own
private manufacture, designed
and carpentered entirely by him
self. He began work on it last
summer and completed it by
gradual stages. Cypress lumber

3 Beer Permits Sought
GoOch Restaurant, Pritchard-Lloyd,
and Smoke Shop Are Applicants

Three applications for permits
to sell beer in Chapel Hill have
been filed with the board Of
county commissioners and the
town manager. They are from
the Gooch restaurant, the .Prit-
chard-Lloyd drugstore, and the
Carolina Smoke Shop.
There are certain to be- more
applications, for the proprietors
of several restaurants have
made known their intention to
sell beer.
Under the law the county COM
missioners, are charged with the
issuance of permits. They ex-
anime into every applicants rec
ord, and they must give hearings
at which objections may be ad-
vanced to the sale Of beer by any
particular person or at any par
ticular place.
1t appears that beer will not
be obtainable in Chapel Hill on
the first day Of May, when the
sale of the beverage becomes le-
gal in North Carolina, because
the commissioners will not re-
ceive applications until their
next regular meeting May l. The
necessary formalities are apt to
require a few days.
The government of the town
of Chapel Hill has nothing to do
with determining upon the quail
ifications of an applicant, but it
can, if it so desires, present an
objection to the county board.
And, after a permit has been
granted, the town may lay it's
own license tax upon every beer
seller.
