turns are due from the more than
$4,000 merchants who have not
yet made any returns at all. even
tually because their sales tax col
lections have amounted to less
than $40 a month, the field depu.
ties will also start looking into
the books of these merchants, Nc
Mullan said. But it will be No
vember l or later before all the
returns from these smaller mer-
chants can be tabulated and lists
prepared for the field deputies.
SO until that time, the deputies
will devote most of their time to
looking into the books of mer-
chants who have already made re-
turns and whose returns have
fallen below the average. The
merchants whose sales tax collec-
tons do not amount to as much
as $40 a month are not required
to make returns each month, but
only every three months.
When asked what the division
expected to do about small mer-
chants who do not keep books and
who do not keep a record of their
sales, Director Mcmillan pointed
out that under the law, the divi-
sion can assess these merchants
whatever it thinks they should pay
until they start keeping accurate
records of their gross sales.
"There are some small mer-
chants, of course, who have not
been in the habit of keeping any
books or keeping any record Of
their daily Sales" Mcmillan said.
"The law requires all merchants,
large and small, to keep accurate
account of their gross sales and
the per cent sales tax is levied
on the basis of this record. When
ever we find a merchant who is
not keeping an account of his
sales, the law gives US the au-
thority to assess the tax on the
basis of the average for merchants
of his class. This assessment can
be increased from month to month
until the merchant complies with
the law and keeps a record of his

Indications Are Over Two
Million Dollars in Sight

Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Oct. 5.-Most OF
the counties, cities and towns
are doing unusually well in pro-
viding relief budgets for the com
ing year and indications are that
more thar $2,000,000 will be pro-
vided for relief work from state
and county sources, Mrs. Thomas
O'Berry. state director of relief,
said yesterday. Three counties
have not yet been heard from
and two of the larger cities
Charlotte and Asheville - have
not yet reported their local relief
budgets. If Charlotte adopts &
budget of 100000 and Ashe-
vile a budget Of $4,000 for re-
lief work, as has been reported,
the total for the state should
amount to almost $2,500,000.
Just how much relief money
Mrs. O'Berry will ask from the
emergency relief administration
in Washington. she is unable to
say, although she did say that
Relief Director Harry Hopkins
was quite well pleased with the
more than $2,000,000 which is
being provided locally within the
state. She believes that the re-
lief administration will provide
whatever amount is needed to
take care of the unemployed and
needy until such a time as they
can secure employment and be-
come self-supporting.
Last year approximately ST.
100000 was contributed from To-
ca lsources within the state. while
the government, through the re-
lief administration, has contri-
buted $7,56O,O0O to relief work
in North Carolina for the II
months from October /, 1882,
through this month. This means
that the state received an aver

The most remarkable CONVEX
sion in the world was that of Saul
of TarsuS, which occurred about

he had gone with authority from
Jerusalem TO stamp out Chris
tianity. But after the great
change. he was enlightened by
the evangelist whom he intended
to imprison and Joined the church
which he meant to destroy.
SAUL AND THE HIGH PRIEST
Painting with rage against Chris
tianS, Saul. the Sanhedrist, was
not content to perSecute and
scatter the church in Jerusalem;
he desired utterly to anihllate
Christianity. Hearing of the Wig
orous church at Damascus. he
thirsted also for it's blood: hence,
he secured from the high priest
at Jerusalem, probably Jonathan,
the successor of Caiaphas who
had been deposed the year be-
fore, legal permission and author
ity to go to Damascus and arrest
the Christians in that city and
bring them to Jerusalem for trial.
We may we'll imagine with what
eager bitterness Saul and his at

of 40 miles northward to Da-
nascuS and with what anticipa-
ton he iourneyed day by day.
THE LORD AND SAUL
Penitent for sin became the
prosecutor at a memorable spot
on the highway just before reach
ing his destination. 1t was at
high noon on the fifth or sixth
day of the journey that a light
surprising that of a cloudless sun
flashed down upon them, the
sudden glare striking Saul to the
earth. To the PROSTATE Sanhe-
drist there came in clear ringing
tones the voice which was unmis-
taxable to him. The fevered and
fretful mind of Saul recognized
the divine presence, and Jesus
identified himself with his fol-
lowers. interfering at the right
moment with their great persecu-
tor. The astonished and tremb-
ling traveller now became a con-
trite suppliant. Thereupon the
Lord told him to proceed to the
city and wait for further instruc-
tons. Then Saul, blinded by the
light. led by the hand, and aided
by his companions, entered Da-
mascuS in a very different plight
from what he expected. For three
full days without sight or food
and in an agony of prayer ne
abode in tn house of Judas on
the street called Straight.
THE LORD AND ANANIAS
Waiting for light Saul spent
the interim in the dust and ashes
of contyition and confession. He
poured out his ardent soul at a
Throne of Grace. In the mean
time, Ananias who was notably
good man and probably the lead
ing Christian in Damascus, was
designated as the evangelist to
lead Saul into the fuller light. 1t
is little wonder that AnaniaS
knowing the havoc wrought by
Saul at Jerusalem and realizing
the purpose of his present visit
to Damacus. hesitated, fearing
that Saul might be playing
game to entrap the Damascus
disciples. But his suspicious were
cleared and he gladly did his
duty.

outcome of Saups interview with
Ananias. Beautiful was the

A young man asked us our opinion
about entering the newspaper field; we
answered this wise says the Mineral Wells

If he can listen with a smile to tire

he can refuse to do what three or four

if he can refuse woman's request for free

UNFAIR COMPETITION

In recent address Representative
Joseph B. Shannon of Missouri, chairman
of the house committee to investigate gov
ernmental competition with private enter
prise, declared:
sThe government, which pays no
taxes. no insurance, and which takes no
account of many other items OF undls-
pensable overhead which private enter
prise must pay, is able unfairly to under
sell the enterprises of its taxpaying cltl-
zens. This, the committee held, constitutes
unfair competition
Mr.. Shannon cited many specific IN
stances of wartime bureaus which still
exist, although the war has been over for
IA years. He charged that in many cases.
the chief activities of these agencies were
in connection with the operation OF busl-
ness enterprises in competition with local
merchants and others.
This condition exists especially at
army and navy posts, where government
stores and restaurants not only serve per-
sons in the military service, but through
the abuse of lawful privileges serve a
large portion of the general public to the
detriment of taxpaying business men.
"The conditions which have been re-
vealed to this committee of the house of
representatives of which am chairman are
almost unbelievable said Mr.. Shannon.
It is an indisputable fact that the
gradual encroachments of the government
in the field of business have made condi-
tions more difficult for thousands of small

prises.
The finding of Mr.. Shannon's commit
tee should lay the foundation for action to
abolish these abuses
