Odd Claims Insurance

what an Exeter policeman must
have thought recently, when some

RALEIGH, March II. - Shall

If there is one-be written by
the present general assembly and

lance or rejection. or shall the
people in the next general election
nominate a state convention to
draft it?
While the senate is now consid-
ering the new constitution drawn
up by the committee on constitu-
tional amendments, which would
be submitted to the qualified
voters in the next general election
after it is adopted by the legisla-
ture, supporters of the state con-
vention plan will make vigorous
fight to put over their program.
The group favoring the state
convention plan is headed by Sen
ator Larry Moore of Craven. the
apostle of economy in the 1888
session. Senator Moore. anticipat-
ing that the senate will have much
difficulty in agreeing upon the
constitution submitted by the COM
mittee, plans to introduce his sub
stitute bill at the psychological
moment.
If no prolonged deadlock on the
committee-framed constitution de-
velops in the upper house, it is
expected that an attempt will be
made TO bring the convention plan
to the fore when the committees

house.
The constitution drawn by the

amendments is virtually the same

Max Gardner in accordance with
an act passed by the 1881 legisla-
ture. This commission spent IA
months in drafting new consti-
tuition which was presented to this
session of the general assembly.
Under Senator MOore's plan, the
work of the 1881 legislature and
the constitution commission would
be nullifed. and the qualified
voters would elect 1910 delegates
to a state convention in the next
general election. The convention
would assemble the following May
and proceed to write new consti-
tuition to supplant the present one,
drafted in 1875. After elccting
the delegates to the convention,
the voters would have no othc.
voice in the matter. and the action
Of he convention would stand as

These 100 delegates would be

ground that state banks would

$4,000 was taken in for money
orders and on postal savings de-
posts. This gold was immedi-
ately turned over to federal re-

Gold flowed into the New York
federal reserve banks, according
to news dispatches from more
than $500 persons who had
brought in savings of gold coins,

Lines of men and women stood

A crowd Of 10000 persons
gathered early at the cemetery,
some coming in family groups
with baby carriages and lunch
baskets, boys perched in the trees
and people stood on grave stones
and mausoleums.
Cermak would have understood
all this because it is a part of the
great city to which he came as
penniless boy of 16 some 43 years
ago.
At the tomb there were tributes
in the Bohemian tongue and d
Masonic rite. A Bohemian band
played Nearer My God to Thee,
and American Legion bugle corps
sounded taps.
The family. the women and
children weeping loudly, hurried
away. Alderman Henry Sonnen

to an automobile.
