The gospel of the NRA is be-

; 6 Z 4 JAILED
UNDER CARREN
Commitments Since Dec,
1928, Include 1913 on
Dry Law Charges

The jail records of Henderson
county show that from December,
1923, to date, 1924 persons have
been committed to that prison.
By years the commitments were
as follows:
For the month of December,
1928, and the year 1929, COM
bined, SOL commitments were
made. The figures for the sue
ceeding years were: $40 in 1880,
581 in 1881, 578 in 1882, 713 in
1888, and 702 this year to date.
The charges on which commit
ments to the Jail were made were
murder, assault, drunkenness, dis
orderly conduct and various other
charges, but the records have not
been kept in such manner that
the charges can be separated and
tabulated, with the exception OF
prisoners charged with violations
of the prohibition laws, both state
and national. In this class the
commitments for the entire Pc
riod were 1918.
The foregoing figures are taken
from the records kept by Sheriff
W A. Garren, during the time
he has been serving as sheriff OF
the county. The figures year. by
wear show that law violations
have been on the increase in the
county in the past five years, as
iail commitments have risen from
5O1 in 10 months, in the years
1928-29, to more than U0 tnls
year. In fact, with the hsures
standing at TOP to date for the
present year, it seems probable
that Jail commitments this year
will be almost double the number
for the wear 1929.

N. c. TEACHER
SALARIES Low
SAYS GRAHAM
0ne-Half of Average in U.
S. at Peak; Cuts
More Drastic

ASHEVILLE, Oct. 20.-At the
peak of it's expenditures for edu-
cation, North Carolina paid its
teachers one-half of the average
for the United States, and since
then the cuts in this state have
been far more drastic than the
average, DR.. Frank Porter Ora
ham, of Chapel Hill. president of
the University of North Carolina
declared in an address before the
Western District Teachers asso-
citation of the North Carolina Edu-
cation association last evening at
the Asheville senior high school
building.
President Graham declared fur
Their that at the peak, the state of
New York spent $107 per pupil
per year, the average for the
United States was S5S, and in
North Carolina the per pupil cost
was $28. This has since been re-
duced to SIC, he said.
DIR. Graham's address was the
principal feature during the even
ing session. The third and final
general session of the convention
will be held at 10:45. o'clock this
morning during which time an adj
dress by DR.. Julian Miller, associ-
ate editor of the Charlotte OBJ
server, will be presented. Election
of officers will be held before the
convention adjourns this noon.
More than 1000 persons attended
yesterdays sessions. -,
DR.. Graham in his address said
in part: g.,
crisis of the towns, counties and
the state, the total fund for the
current operation of the public
schools was reduced over eleven
million dollars. Yet by statewide
law all the schools have been kept
open eight months whether in
city or country. white or colored.
The credit of the state has been
valiantly maintained. The value of
North Carolina bonds has advanc-
ed. The sovereignty of the state
is being restored, gradually but
surely in our emancipation from
the. strangle-hold of metropolitan
banks.
"The schools, the state depart
ments and institutions have paid
the heavy price for this advancing
fiscal liberation of common
wealth from the power of district
financial interests. The public
schools and the public service have
sustained blow after blow and alb
sorbed shock after shock in all the
destructive power. With reserves
oyerdrawn and strength depleted
they have doggedly held on and
carried on for North Carolina. 1t
| is time for North Carolina to save
something not less precious than
! its credit. 1t is high time for North
Carolina to save the public ser.
vice, the indispensable agencies OF
health, welfare, transportation
and enlightenment, the state de,
partments and the institutions and
/ schools of the people.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20. CUP
A nationwide effort to resell the
NRA to the American housewife
is underway, the United Press
learned today.
Without fanfare or ballyhoo
and from coast to coast NRA Of
ficials are lending aid and en-
couragement in a desperate at.
tempt to win back the support OF
women perturbed by the soaring
cost of living.
Trained Investigators of the
NRA are busy in the East and
Middlewest checking the senti-
ment of the man-in-the-street to-
ward the recovery unit. First re-
ports indicate the male to be
either apathetic or enthusiastic.
Little opposition was noted.
The majority of the women
questioned were said to be criti-
cal. They have a tendency to
blame the NRA for the rising
prices of necessities at a time
when the family income is re-
naming frozen at a fixed level.
The change in the feeling OF
the housewives he blamed partly
upon the increased cost of living
and to hostile or careless mer-
chants. Too much emphasis IS
placed by the store-keeper, the
official believes, upon the effect
of the NRA upon prices.
"They should quit telling MRS
Jones and Mrs. Brown that II 1t
wasn't for the NRA she could
have this a few cents cheaper and
that at less cost" he said. TOO
often this isn't true"

in front of women to bring them
