SMALLER NUMBER In
NEED OF RELIEF
[Continued trom Fktt Paaf1

Confinned from Frn Pdge1
the Mayors Committee, and covering
the entire state, there were 5000
families receiving direct relief in
January of this year. In March this
figure for the state had increased
to $500 families. The cost was
$186,000 that month. This figure has
now been cut to 100000 for the
month of August. Even a greater
reduction is expected for October,
and with the resumption of many
industries, and squirt in the build
ing program in northern Delaware,
the reduction in direct relief is ex-
pected to be even lower.
Figures of relief to families ma
tionally during the year are as fol-
lows: January, 3.S5O,0OO; Febru-
airy, 4,140,0O0; March. 4,560,00O;

She thinks l am a wonder, and knows
her little lad

If a feller was de feller dat his
mudder thinks he is.
So my friends, be yours life OF

You still can learn a lesson from
the small unlettered boy.
Don't try to be an earthly saint,

Just try to be the fellow that your

The woman who understands.
AS the tide went out she found him

The wreck of his ship around him,
The wreck of his dreams in the air.

TAX EVAS|O Ms
. Of RICH AID
SALES LEVY

The reaction of recent investi-
cations into income tax evaSionS
by the ultra ricn has greatly
stimulated support of the sales
tax plan by citizens all over the
country.
Here in Washington, as else
where where Hearst papers have
gone to the public to learn its
preference, sentiment has been
almost unanimous in favor of the
sales tax as compared with the
obsolete income laws.
Express Opinions
Some representative citizens ex-
press themselves as follows:
L. A. Kennedy, resta ran t
owner:
"The income tax law is an
actual invitation to normally
honest people to become dis
honest. The sales tax would
remove this temptation and as
sure the payment of taxes by
all who are able to buy.
"Under the present system,
In many businesses the simplest
thing in the world is merely to
keep no record of income. There
is no way whatever to prove
the amount taken in. Further
more, those who make perfectly
honest returns find it hard to
meet the big payments when
they come due.
"The sales tax would make it
easier for everyone concerned"
BY Robert I. Miller, member of
Ahe bar:
From a study of its growth,
the income tax seems to be
much the same as a Serpentine
vine that begins as pretty little
Sprig but soon begins to strangle
everything upon which it gets its
grasp. OF course, the bigger the
tree the less chance has the vine
to touch even a leaf.
"Under the income tax, bust
ness which are struggling to get
above the ground are stunted or
killed. But when they spread
like a tree to point where they
could really feed the Govern
ment, the income tax may jump
high but it never jumps where
they are. They are above the
law.
"The sales tax, it seems to me,
would go far to rectify the sit
uatiOn. At this time a change
in the system seems most nee
eSSary."
James Miles, stationery store
proprietor:
"The simplest and fairest of
assessing taxes is clearly on
sales. The income tax should
be abandoned on incomes of,
say, up to $4,000"

bile owners in the state are still
tagging far behind in buying their
new 1884 license plates. having
purchased only about $4,000 to
date during the first ten DAYS they
have been on sale. according to
Director L. S. Harris Of the Motor
Vehicle Division of the State De-
partment Of Revenue. The total
automobile registration in the
state is now about 4O8,000. so that
the $4,000 licenses sold so far do
not represent very big dent in
the total number that should be
sold before January |.
Another reason car owns should
buy their new licenses as soon as
/ possible is that at least % Of the
branch offices will probably be
closed January |, making it ncces-
sary for thoS" in sections served
by these offices to get their lie,
- cnses by mail from the license bu-
rcau hero in Raleigh. instead Of
/ locally. Harris pointed out. This
will mean additional delay for
those who fail to buy their new
licenses before January /.
The towns and cities in which
these branch offices will probab-
" be closed after January / are ::
Albermarle, Asheboro, Brcvard,
Canton, Clinton, Fdenton. Hender-
/ son. Hendcrsonville. Hickory, Lau-
rinburg, Louisburg, Lumberton,

! Sylvia. TaTboTo, Wadcsboro, Wash
J ington. Warsaw. West Jefferson,
Whitcvillc and Williamson. Il is
planned to keep all the other
branch offices omen For license
sales throughout the year. Virtual
~ all of these offices arc branch
offices of the Carolina Motor
| Club. 1t WIS AT first PLANNED to
| maintain all these offices on a
year round basis. But sales have
| been so light at the offices listed
above that it has now virtually
! been devided to close them Janu
airy /. Consequently those in the
territory served by these offices
are urged to buy their licenses be-
fore the close of the license per-
iod December 81 unless they want
to be subject to delay in getting
their licenses and run, the risk of
being arrested if they try 30 use
the old ones.
