SEAGULLS in FLIGHT

Ocracoke, Feb. (AP)--It may be

fish on the wing
The gulls follow the fishing smacks
in waters around Ocracoke and not
only pick up fish from the water but
have become so expert they catch

thrown overheard.
Fish too small lfor marketing are
shoveled overheard after being caught
in nets and hundreds of gulls and
Sanncts are attracted by the free
lunch. Although about Is per cent
of the discarded fish are alive, they
never reach the seas bottom be-
cause the brids swoop down and de-
vour a fish at a gulp.
Some of the deck hands with spare
time wondered if the gulls could catch
the fish in the air and began tossing
the discarded fish up one by one. The
gulls rose to the occasion and grab
bed them in midair. Furthermore.
the gulls are still doing it as often as
hands have time to toss the small fish
overheard one by one.

red-blOoded American believes in the
Presidents aim of bringing about a
moro equal distribution OF the ma
tion's income. This, however, is very
difficult to work out while ~ the

back good business and prosperity.
The administration attempt to do
both simultaneously is like man

try must choose between these two

The brain trust makes a mistake IN
thinking that to bring about good
business all we have to do is to in
crease the amount of currency in cir
culation. Good business depends even
more upon the rapidity of circulation
than upon the actual amount of cur
rency outstanding. The velocity in
turn is always dependent upon the
the confidence and willingness of
those who have capital and courage
to start new enterprises and take
risks. This is a fundamental fact
which the Administration must keep
in mind in formulating new corpora
ton taxes, income taxes, and espe-
cially surtaxes.

New York, Feb. 2-The Greenwich
Village ball is one of the towns strang
est perennial shindigs Lacking the
socia ltone and formality of the top
lofty Beaux Arts, it yet draws many
of the ailcoat Tomboys and Decolle-
tage Dowagers to Webster hall, vast
and weatherbeaten ballroom tradi-
tionally given ever to the high jinks
Of Pinkos, Socialists, Greenwich Viii
layers and Professional Esthetes.
The ball this year ran true to form;
looking round it seemed to me that
the same faces were present that
had seen seven years ago when | at
tended my first Greenwich Village
ball. The affair, originated and spon-
sored by Cynthia White for II years
is the cry of a fading Manhattan Bo-
hemia.
The customers are made up of three
cliques. There are the Villagers
long hair, the faint, engrossing aura
of malnutrition and the most daring
costumes. There are the Park ave-
nue. set, come down to WELD lorgnet-
tes from boxes and generally snoot
themselves and other merrymakers
there are the college boys, who con-
in nigh ecstasy of Summing. And
tribute a vitality and high-hearted
rowdiness the Bohemians no longer
command.
AS usual there was the old gentle
man dressed like monk. There was
the girl, n breath-takingly scanty
costume, who rollicked among the un-
attached men like a nymph, drawing
menage of sheepish males after her
as she wove gaily here and there on
the floor. And true to form, she
mounted the orchestra platform and
took over the baton as the festivities
approached crescendo and dawn.

was surprising contrast to the Pier

cording to the Law of Action and
Reaction, is now taking place. This
revival will in itself, at the present
tax rates, yield enough in additional
revenue over the next two years to
mt the Treasury on its feet again
If, however, taxes are increased at
unis ume Congress will only eopard-
ize the recovery. In the long run the
Federal government would get more
income by lowering rather than in
creasing taxes. Let Washington learn
the lesson which we. as private in
dividuals, have learned-namey -
that we progress only as we save. not
as we spend.
Instead of holding back recovery
by discouraging private initiative, the
government should offer those WITH
capital some incentive to risk it N
new enterprises and new building.
Every citizen can help by appealing
to his senators and congressman as
follows: Cd Protest against increases
in corporate taxes, income taxes, lnt
surtaxes. (2) Urge that d certain per-
centage of funds spent by individuals
for new building or new business be
deductable from income surtax pay
ments CD Protest against increases
in taxes of all types. Most important
of all bear down on any proposals
for new forms of taxation.
Faith, Not Penalties. Needed.
The President, is very anxious TO
raise commodity prices to the 1926
level and | say God bless him. in
his efforts He, however should real
ize that to do this he must have the
same confidence, enthusiasm and
willingness to take risks among busi-
ness people as existed in 1926 that s
he must get money circulating at the
same rate of speed as it circulated
in 1926. This can never be accom-
plished by increasing taxes and hold
ing the business man up to ridicule
He simply says to himself: Life is
too short. What's the use? I'm going
to quit For every surtax payer who
thus gets discouraged and quits busi-
ness, an average of one hundred en-
ployees are thrown out of jobs.
Business, as estimated by the Bah
sonchart, though 33 per cent below
normal, now registers eight per cent
above year ago.

Of Closed Banks

nv n, rA CEx WNHDN-WU


Raleigh, Feb. 2-Indications are
that the detailed reports covering the
cost of attorneys fees and other ex-
penses of banks under liquidation and
now in the office of Secretary of
State Stacy w. Wade, will not be pub
fivelished despite the fact that the
law says they must be published
within five days after they are filed
with him.
But if they are not published, it will
not be because of any neglect of duty
on the part of the secretary of state,
or because he has not made the eff
fort to publish them, but because the
1888 general assembly failed to make
provision for the cost of publishing
these statements with the result that
there is no appropriation available
from which this cost can be paid.
The only possible source from which
the necessary money to publish these
bank statements can be obtained is
from the state emergency and contin-
guency fund. But no money can be
obtained from this fund without the
approval of the governor and the
Council of State. Secretary of State
Wade placed his request before the
Council of State for an allotment to
cover the cost of printing these bank
statements on Tuesday January 80,
but no action has been taken yet on
the request. In the meantime, the
five days within which the law saws
the statements must be printed have
elapsed.
The prevailing feeling in official cir
cles here is that the Council of State
is not likely to- authorize the expendi-
ture of more than $4,000 to carry ont

and increased taxes now being pro-
posed by Washington.
The United States has Travelled u
long and rough road since Jefferson
uttered the first principle of the
Democratic party: THE least gov
ernment is the best government" The
history of the last century is the
story of the change of principle from
the people supporting the government
to the government supporting the
people. We found that with an i'll
creasingly complicated economic sys-
tenn the "laissez faire" policy does not
work smoothly. AS a result, we are
now going too far in the other dl,
rection. Both Wall Street and Main
Street have abdicated There is d
grave danger, however that people
will depend too much on Washing
ton.
Protect Lile 'Seend- Corn"
The thirty-eight millions of dollars
which the government is spending
daily must come from somewhere.
The !prin1ple that outgo can not
long continue greater than income is
as sound today as it ever was. The
government, no more than ali sin-
dividual,' can spend money like a
drunken sailor without the bill col
lector catching up some day. Under
our present system public expenses
must be paid either by borrowing or
by taxing. Accordingly while the ad-
ministration is working toward a bet
ter division of the national income it
must not forget that we are still llv-
ing uHOcI CHc CdplldllSIlC system.
Common sense tells us that Congress,
through short-sighted and misguided
taxation policies, can kill the goose
that lays the golden eggs.
We have witnessed in the last
seventeen years an appalling advances
in the public debt In 1916 the latter
stood at $1,225, 100000; in 1919 at S25,-
$4,000 900; in 1929 at SIG, ,931 900, 900; !
and in 1884 at $29,847 100000. Federal
government expenses have increased !
during the same period of time from
$734, 100000 to $10.569 100000 per year. |
At present, public funds are being
