Newspapers OPINIONS
WHY EXTENSIONS?

In North Carolina the law demands that motor
lists have new license plates by the first of each
wear This week number of arrests were made IN
the Tar Heel state where violators were found.
A prominent Charlotte citizen decried the fact
that the highway officials were enforcing the law
and as a result many people there engaged in what
The Observer termed a tag revolt" So serious
was the delinquency in securing tags that the
highway department sent six extra men into Meek
lenburg county to apprehend viOlators.
Why the revolt?
If January 1st is the designated date for the
purchase of auto tags why extend the time? And
if the time is to be extended month, let us say
then why not extend the time two months or three
months, or four months?
And if the time is to be extended to a minority
of auto owners who fail to secure tags by January
1st why not extend the time to sixty per cent, o"
eighty per cent, or even to all?
And if there are to be unlimited and unbusness-
like extensions and time favOrs to part OF the peo-
pie who happen to be delinquent why have any time
limit at all? Why not just run the department IN
hit or miss fashion and let payments flor tags DC
made lust when the spirit moves and not before!
This extension business is an absurdity. There
is no fair reason why extensions should be made to
part of the people and not to others. And if time
extensions are to be allowed such action should be
given advance publicity so that all might take adj
vantage of the favor.
If extensions are to be made there should be
discount plan adopted for those who pay early ana
penalty plan for those who take their own sweet
time to pay. That is only fair and just.-Rcck HILL

personal LIBERTY"

News from Chicago is that Mayor Edward D.
Kelly will request the city council to amend the
liquor license ordinance to keep members OF the
fair sex out of the $500 saloons and taverns OF
the Windy City.
Says His Honor the Mayor:
Il don't know of anything that will stir up pub
lie opinion against personal liberty-as far as
liquor is concerned-more than the regular sight
of women drinking and carousing at tavern coun-
tiers, if permitted to go I am convinced that
people generally regard it as an obnoxious prac-
tice"
What dry joke on the ladies who voted the re-
peal ticket personal liberty was probably the
chief argument used by the vets in pushing their
campaign and now the powers that be in Chicago
may decide who is entitled to have personal liberty
And to think that such drastic move is considered
necessary just when drinking was supposed to be
so legal no one would want it anyhow! 1t begins to
look like prohibition is beginning to be appreciated
in Chicago with the advent of repeal-Anderson

THE TUGWELL BACK-DOWN

bated Tugwell bill, which was designed to tighten
up the food and drugs act in manner that would
have put many druggists out of business and that
would have established Htlerized censorship owe:
newspaper advertising, has heard from the people
and has submitted that proposition in greatly
modified manner. Perhaps the bill may undergo
still further revision and be passed in the amended
form, but it had become manifest that in its orig
inal shape it stood no chance, whatever, of being
enacted into law. Food and drugs are subjects
which should be properly safeguarded and will be,
but the proposition as first advanced, would have
deprived the consuming public of rights which this
public would never have surrendered. And so, the
dispute may end well, after all.-The Charlotte

PASS THIS ALONG
observer.

Here's grand suggestion worth passing along,
in part of an article from the Fayetteville o.
server:
The fair tax for highway support is the tax on
gasoline.
The gas tax is paid in proportion to the use OF
the highways. The man who drives his car only
few miles day back and forth from work pays far
less than the salesman whose speedometer clicks
off hundreds of miles. The Austin whose feather
weight hardly lets the highway know it rests upon
it uses less gas and hence pays less tax than the
heavy truck whose rumbling wheels play havoc with
the roadway.
Then the gas tax is painless" being paid in
small amounts, few cents at time.
The State of North Carolina should increase the
tax gasoline enough to take care of the automo-
bile license tax and then should abolish this medic
val form of annual torture and persecution with
which it afflicts its long suffering public.
Automobile licenses should be retained only as a
means of Identification. The fee should not exceed
the actual cost of the plates and the expenses of
registration. One dollar car would cover every
thing.
Here's real idea, to our way of thinking.
Here's something to put up, along with driv-
ers license to the next session of the legislature.
Candidates are voted on not long from now, you
remember.)
One dollar is plenty
One dollar for each car and one drivers license.
Ten cents for each additional drivers license.
Have the car inspected for lights brakes, etc,
as in Virginia. every six months. No charge at
inspection time.
Take the highway patrolmen off of weights ard
measures, fairs, parades, tax collections, and es
corts and keep them at work making and keep
ing roads safe for riders, walkers, and drivers.

SACRIFICE OF POLITICS TO LASTING
HONOR
CBY BRUCE CATTON)

Probably the most significant single
thing about Mayor LaGuardia's inaugural
in New York was his blunt prediction: Il
never shall be reelected
That brief remark, taken in conjunction
with the new mayors policies, contains a
whole volume of commentary on municipal
politics as it is practiced in America.
The reasons for the new mayors pessi-
mistic prediction are simple.
He aims to give New York clean and
efficient administration. He is going to re-
duce the number of city employees by ap-
proximately 10000.
He is going to cut salaries, abolish use
less boards and commissions, consolidate
city departments, end the reign of graft IL
the letting of contracts and the buying of
supplies, remove politics from the police
department.
He is going, in short, to do those simple
things which obviously and indisputably
are proper for a mayor to do.
But we have built up the kind of system
in our mechanical politics which makes 1t
very unlikely that any administration can
do those very proper and necessary things
and win reelection.
To succeed in American municipal poll
tics, as a general thing, mayor must con-
sent to a certain amount of inefficiency, a
certain amount of favoritism, and certain
amount of outright corruption in his gov
eminent.
The extent to which he puts up with
those things varies from city to city, nat
urally; but the man who, like LaGuardia.
boldly proposes to abolish them entirely is
a great rarity, and he takes it for granted
at the start that he cannot be reelected.
We have had great deal of talk in the
last year about new deal" about a new
spirit that is entering our conduct of ma
tional affairs. Nowhere do we need such
change any more than in our system Of
local government.
We need not only politicians who are
courageous enough to put principle above
the success of their own careers; we need
a public opinion that will support such men
when they do appear, and give them the
backing they must have.
The piping times in which money was so
plentiful that we could afford to support
wasteful and grating city governments
have gone, now, and there is not much
chance that they will return soon.
1t is up TO us to cut our cloth to suit our
purse: to hunt for and support politicians
willing to, take office with the prediction,
81 never shall be reelected

AMERICAN U. SQUAD
MAKES TRIP TODAY
Goes to Ashland for Tomorrow's
Tilt With Randolph Macon,
Which Ends Season.

TTEADED by Coaches Young and
i i Manke. the American Uni
versity foot ball squad was to
leave this afternoon for Ashland, Va,
for its game there tomorrow with
Randolph Macon.
The contest is the last on the
Eagles schedule and they are keen
to win it in order to finish the sea-
son with a record of three victories
and three defeats, which would be
the best on A. U. grid team ever
enjoyed.
Red Mallard will start at quarter
back for the Eagles instead of Staff
Cassell, preacher-gridder. who is out
with an injury. Otherwise the same
lineup will take the field at the
opening as began against Gallaudet
last week.
Casselrs loss has necessitated a
change in the A. U. attack, as he has
proved the best passer on the squad.
The aerials from Cassell to Bob Tay-
lor have netted four touchdowns this
season. Either Taylor or Mallard
will throw passes against Randolph
Macon.

Duke Has Easy Game.

COME Of the games in the South

good, while others seem to be be-

Duke is not quite sure of having an
easy time of it with Wake Forest, and
North Carolina may get il; usual
snappy fight from Davidson. Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and North Caro-
lima State College are fairly sure to
have a rough hard game. while Wash
ington and Lee is stronger than Vir-
ginia. In that Virginia team, though,
is good deal of latent power. 1t is
possible for it to come to life and play
great game with the Generals. Vir-
ginia most assuredly has greater pos
sibilities than it has given any signs
of up to this time.
