During Mr.. kervan's administra-
ton the tax rate was materially re-
duced and. in the face of the reduc-
ton. two hundred thousand dollars
was paid on the County indebted
ness: more than had been paid for
a quarter of a century prior 10 that
time when a higher tax rate was
obtaining.
His constant aim while in office was
TO transact the business of the
County with the same care and at
tention as he would his own af-
fairs and to receive full value for
every dollar expended. A consistent
party man. it was his aim and am
bition to faithfully serve all the peO-
pie and this conduct recommended
him to all the taxpayers irrespective

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE EUROPEAN REALIGNMENT

| With his usual clearness of style, Walter Llpp-
man analyses the present-day European situation
The postwar era, he tells US, came to an end with
| the National Socialist revolution in Germany and
| the rise to power of Adolf Hitler. Down to then
| France had been the dominant power on the Con-
| tnent and her alliances in Central Europe gave
| her a prepoderant position But her lack of gen.
crosby to vanquished Germany aroused fierce re-
sentiment in the Fatherand and new military
| spirit. This in turn conceded with a decline of
militarism in France
As the Nazis have become stronger and more
| daring the French have become weaker and more
| vacillating. Italy again has become alarmed at
the Hitler policy towards Austria which she sees
as thrust at her security and interests in the
! Adriate. Meanwhile Poland has become detached
| from the French alliance and has made her peace
with Germany Italy is veering around to France
as the Nazi peril to Austria and the lower Danube
river valley grows apace
Much now depends upon the strengthen weak
ness-of the Doumergue government at Paris. II
France with the support of Italy, presents firm
front to the German policy of advance in the Dan
ube valley. Europe may still keep the peace. But
France must act for herself and not depend upon
support from either Britain the United States.
In other words the political situation in Europe
remains kaleidoscopic-as often in the past.
Two great powers face each other across the from
tier of the Rhine. When one is weak, the other is
strong When one is aggressive, the other IS
quiescent When one is dominant, the other IS
seeking revenge. And so the story goes.
In S42 A. D. the grandsons of Charlmagne dl-
vided the Frankish empire by the Treaty OF YER
dune Charles the Bald received France as his
portion; Ludwig the German was given GERMANY
and the middle strip from the North Sea to the
Alps together with Italy, went to Lothian the enl-
peror And from then down to the present, small
states have existed in the middle region, while the
great eastern and western powers have faced each
other and sought to absorb the territory between.
The present shift in Europe presages period
of greater Germany and of lesser France IL
Germany absorbs Austria, the Hohenzolern dream
of Mitteleuropa will be in large measure fulfilled.
But if France and her allies bolster up Austria
successfully, an uneasy balance will continue to he
maintained 1t all goes to show that European ma
tionalism produces never-ceasing scene of strife
And no final solution of the problem has yet been

HE MAKES A POINT

Attorney General Brummitt makes a strong
mint in his recent educational address when he
asserts that those factors in the state pointing to
"a sales tax sufficient to meet the demands OF the
SCHOOLS for progressive program IN the future
kswoald place upon the parent of each child con-
&tlbction to such school support equivalent to the
dbpeft the child receives"
q Ne could have stated the same principle by say
ana that in such event, also, the people wouti
|ldsssee self-limitation for their schools
Nh is obvious that under this arrangement the
sthools could go no further than the consumption
demands of the people for those articles OF mer-
chandise upon which tax would be placed.
The issue of course is not as to the present
method of a limited sales tax for the general sup
mort of the state government from which it so
happens that schools demand such szabe pro-
portion
| But it does have to do with the argument Of
those who insist that the educational procedure in
] North Carolina should be coupled with sales tax
sufficient to finance this form of public service IN
dependent of any other revenues.
This proposition would at once set arbitrary
limit to school progress. No more could be spent
for education than the taxes sales amounted to-
| And taxes on sales would amount to no more
| than the volume of merchandise the people would
| buy
And the amount of merchandise they would buy
to be taxed for the support of the public schools
would be contingent upon their capacity to pur-
chase which, in turn, is dependent upon their earn
| ing abilities.
That is not the way the school program OF North
| Carolina was launched and to adopt it now would
be virtually treacherous to the constructive laDor'
of Aycock, Joyner and those others who LAID the
mudsl for free schools in North Carolina, without
restriction or reference to how much the parents
of given child might be able to contribute to the
support of the system.-Chariotte Observer.

GROWTH CONTINUES

The Southern Public Utilities Magazines page
of Progress presenting a symposium of the in
d,strial activities in the territory which the COM
pany serves is enlivening showing the extent to
which developments have continued in spite OF the
perpetuation of difficult times.
During 1888, 81 new industrial plants were es-
tablished and SO existing industries built new
plants or additions, making a total OF 70 new
plants and additions for the year.
Thirty cities and towns are represented IN the
list of those having new industries. Charlotte was
the most fortunate with TO- Burlington took sec
ond place with seven. Greensboro had six. High
Point, Marion and Mt. Airy had fonr each. Elkin,
Hickory and Lenoir boosted three EACH Sixteen
other communities had two each, and 13, had one.
The gratifying trend toward the diversity in the
industrial development of the Piedmont section
continued during 1888. More than 25 different
types of industry are represented in the 73 new
plants
The largest number of new plants in any single
industry was in the hosiery field there being six
new plants and II additions. Miscellaneous textile
plants ranked next with four new plants and seven
additions
There were seven new plants and addition
| among food and feed manufacturing processing
establishments. Four new plants and three addi-
tons for the manufacture Of wearing apparel Were
established. while there new furniture

was a quarterback under Rocknc'

writer.
Grant goes from position as
critic to one where he has to pro-
duce the guys who make the plays
for the sports scribes to write
about. So the sports editors Will
watch him pretty closely, TOO. II
Notre Dame comes UP with a pc

IT'S THE AUTO DRIVER WHO IS
UNSAFE
CBY BRUCE CATION

(BY BRUCE CATTON)
If there were any Indication, anywhere
that the American motorist was beginning
to learn how to drive in safety, the figures
on traffic fatalities would not be so dis
couraging. We could say, in that case, that
the long list of deaths came simply because
the auto still was d relatively new bit OF
machinery, and that things would work
themselves out, once everybody got the
hang of it.
But we can't say that An elaborate
ANALYSIS of 1888 auto accidents, issued re-
Gently by the Travels Insurance company,
shows that our driving is getting worse in
stead of better Far from learning how to
handle our cars in safety, we are making
a worse record now than six years ago.
! Look at the figures In 1927 there were
23,2OO,O00 autos in use in the Unitea
States. In 1888 the number was 23,80Oij
OO0-an increase of only 90 per cent "a
1927 auto accidents killed 1888 people,
In 1898 they killed 29,9OO-which is,a rise
of II per cent.
:, These. figures can mean only one thlnBS
That we actually are driving with less care
today than we were six years ago. Far
from learning how to handle these new
machines, we are getting worse. Fatalities
are increasing at faster rate than auto
registrations.
This belief is borne out when the FAC
tors involved in the accidents are exam
ined. 1t is revealed, for instance, that
nearly SO per cent of the $4,000 people
killed in 1888 died in accidents in which
drivers were exceeding the speed limit.
Eighteen per cent of the deaths came
when drivers went off the road Thirteen
per cent were caused by vehicles being on
the wrong side of the road; an equal per
centage came from some drivers failure
to give the right of way to a vehicle en-
titled to it.
Those figures are utterly damning. They
prove, as clearly as any black and white
tabulation could prove, that our auto death
toll Is going up because of criminal care
lessness and selfiShness on the part of the
drivers.
Number of cars in use is only slightly
higher than it was six years ago. The cars
themselves are far safer; they are soldier,
their brakes are better, they stick to the
road better, they are easier to keep under
control. 1t is the human element, and 1t
alone, which has failed.
What are we going to do? 1t would be
horribly expensive TO increase the number
of city and rural traffic police five-told. II
would be dreadful nuisance to require
by law, the installation of automatic gov
errors limiting car speeds to 35 miles al
hour, or some such figure.
But it begins to look as if we shan'i
make our highways even reasonably saft
until we put through some such drasti;
and costly safeguards. We must find some
way of protecting ourselves from our owr
foolishnesS.
