RALEIGH, Sept. 19.-Why not
q regular yearly investigation Of

Board of Charities and Public
Welfare. with a detailed report
submitted to the governor and
boards of directors? If such an
investigation has revealed un-
wholesome condition existing IN
the Caswell Training School in
Kinston and been the means of
bringing about changes designed
to remedy these conditions, might
not q similar examination of 9TH
er institutions be a good thing?
These questions are being ask
ed here following the revelations
made concerning the static con-
ditions existing in the Casweli
Training School as revealed in
the report of the special inves-
tigation made into the admins
tration of the school by the
state board of charities and
public welfare. For while the
report does not reveal anything
that might be called gross mis-
management and neglect, there
is no doubt that it does reveal
a stagnant and static state of
affairs bordering on neglect. 1t
is also agreed that the facts
found by the Investigators and
listed in the report, a copy of
which was sent to the governor
and every member of the board
of directors, are undoubtedly
responsible for the recent change
in the administration of the
school.
If the Caswell Training School
has been poorly administered
during the past year or two and
if the wards of the state there

tic or imbecilic children-did not

there not a possibility that there
are other institutions operated
by the state in which conditions
are not what they should be!
Should not the state board OF
charities and public welfare make
the same kind of fact-hnding
investigation in these other in
situations it made at the Cas-
well Training School?

Sees Instanment
Payment Of Tax
Advantageous
EasterIing Puts Idea For
ward as Offering Source
of Steady Income
The Timcs-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Sept. 19.-lnstall-
ment payment of taxes in cities
and towns and even in counties
where most of the taxpayers are
salaried people or employees who
are paid by the week or month,
would undoubtedly benefit both
the governmental units as well as
the people, in the opinion of w.
e. Easterfing, assistant director
of local government. 1t would as.
sure these counties, cities and
towns a steadier flow of revenue
and at the same time make tax
paying easier, he believes.
"In the counties and communi.
ties that are largely rural and
where most of the taxes are paid
by those dependent upon the sale
of their crops for their yearly in
come. it is doubtful, if much would
be gained by the installation OF
the installment tax paying plan"
Easterling said. For in such COM
munities, most of the taxpayers
get most of their income in a
lump sum once a year. Conse-
quentiy it is easier for them to
pay their taxes all at one time in
a single payment.
"But in the larger industrial
counties. cities and towns where
the people receive their incomes
in wages or salaries, there is no
doubt that the local governments
would get a Steadier stream Of
revenue if the taxes were paid III
installments. This would also
make it easier for the taxpayers,
since they could pay their taxes
in smaller amounts scattered
throughout the year. Several Of
the larger cities in the state are
using this plan and finding it very
satisfactory"
County and city boards of COM
missioner may set up installment
tax paying systems at their dis
erection. since the 1888 Machinery
Act. in Section sos, Subsection 9,
empowers local governing boards
to permit the payment of taxes in
installments, provided the install
ments are not less than 25 per
cent of the total amount due.
There are some, however, who ad-
vocate the payment of taxes in
monthly installments, just as wa
ter rent is paid.

Refuse Shelter for
Militant Activities

NEW YORK. - Despite the fact
that he carried a food and shelter"
ticket from the Gibson Emergency
Relief Committee, an unemployed
worker was refused admission to the
Man Builder for Homeless Men. 261
Greene ST., because he was wearing
a button of the International Pro-
paganda Committee of Seamen and
Harbor Workers. No shelter would
be given him, he was told, unless he
surrendered his button.
On Jan. z, the World Telegram
published news item, asking its
readers not to give money to unem-
ployed workers on the street, but to
hand them these food and shelter"
tickets instead. But evidently these
tickets are no good if you happen
to be worker who believes in fight
ing for his class. This is only an
other instance of how militant work
ers are Disseminated against by the
relief authorities. The Unemployed
Councils are carrying on campaign
against this and other forms of dis
elimination.

"Cut Is Temporary"
Men Know Better

NEW YORK-"Why weren't the
men represented when this wage cut
was proposed?" demanded the I.RT.
employees at several of the Brother
hood local meetings last week.
"Read your constitution. said the
President, in each case. These local
presidents are the DELEGATES TO the
general committee. which does have
constitutional power in this comnany
union TO make wape contracts without
consulting the men. But, on the 9TH

their ticking vote on a proposed
wage cut, and such votes hevc been
taken in the past. The IRT men

Whose Fund?

and what for, the presidents don't
say.
They hold out the hope, which the
men receive with we'll founded skep-
ticism, that after million dollars is
piled up in this mysterious fund"
the wage cut will be revoked. The
presidents even say this will happen
about June. The IRT men meet this
statement with derision.

DreSSmakerS for
United Struggle
A, F. L. Heads Oppose
Plan to Better
Conditions

NEW YORK.-Two meetings we're
held on Thursday night to discuss
the present situation in the dress
trade. The central point discussed at
both meetings was the question of
a united struggle of the dressmakers
against the present sWeatshop condi-
tons. At the meeting of the Indus
trial Union, a number of decisions
were made how to organize the
dressmakers for united struggle and
at the meeting of the International,
it was decided to get money out OF
the dressmakers to fight against the
united struggle.
At the meeting of the Industrial
Union it was decided y to begin a
drive in preparation for mass
strike; o that every shop should
give at least one worker to the
rank and file organization commit
tee; - that every organizer should
concentrate his activities on the
block and building in order to pre-
pare the workers for the strike; a
to strengthen the committees who
are carrying on the work of organ
izing all workers of one jobber and
prepare them for a strike, and to
spread this work among the members
of the International so as to build
one united force against the bosses;
50 to endorse the shop conference
arranged by the United Committee in
Irving Plaza; g. to intensity the work
by organizing the rank and file
dressinakers for active participation
in the struggle.
The meeting also decided to issue
a manifesto to the members of the
Industrial Union not in good stand
ing to make their dues good with
small payments. Decided that clean
erS, finiShers, examiners, pay So, OPP
orators SO, cutters and pressers So.
At the second meeting called by
HICKMAN and Dubinsky which was
held in Bryant Hall, the left wing
group distributed a Ieaflet calling for
united action and carried on a strug-
gle at the meeting for united drives.
These proposals made with the sup
port of large number of rank and
file workers, but Dubinsky, HICKMAN
and Zimmerman decided against a
united front and instead levied new
taxes on the workers in order to help
carry through the fake strike with
the aid of professional organizers.
The Industrial Union calls on the
dressmakerS, members of the Inter
national, regardless of their views
and opinions, not to pay these taxes
which will be used in order to keep
the ranks of the dressmakers split
and over the heads of their leaders
to unite with the members of the
Industrial Union, the workers of the
open shops for the purpose of de-
veloping one united drive in prepa-
ration for a united strike of all
dreSSmakerS.
The Unity Committee which is car
rying on the preparations for this
struggle has headquarters at 140 w.
36th st. and has designated workers
to take up complaints and to give
advice to the workers of the open
shops and International shops how
to develop struggle for better con-
ditions.
All workers employed in open srops
are called upon to Immediately re-
port these shops to the Unity Com
mittee.
