"long parliaments" who didn't strug-
gle to get away for months before
they finally got together.
From the occupational standpoint,
lawyers again far outnumber every
other class. Thirty of the Senate's so
are attorneys. Nine may be classed
as merchants, three as tobacconists,
two as doctors, two as manufacturers
and two business men," There is
but one banker and one farmer in the
Senate.
There will be an even so lawyers in
the House. Farmers, excluding gen.
tlemen and play farmers, come next
with 10. Merchants show with 16.
Other house classifcations are:
Manufacturers, seven; doctors and
dentists, five; teachers, four; sales
men, newspapermen, preachers and
engineers, two, each; and tobacco
nists real estate men and insurance
men, one each. Two members listed
themselves as retired, several gave no
occupation and one, Mrs. Charles M.
Hutchins, of Yancey, said her hus-
band was lawyer.
The public will be interested in
learning that the electric chair may
come into the limelight. A good deal
of criticism has been broadcast since
the lectrocution of the Taylorsville
bank robbers when one of the men
was kept in the chair six minutes
and almost literally fried before he
was pronounced dead.
DIR. Charles A. Peterson, Represen-
tative from Mitchell, is coming to the
Legislature with the announced in
tention of proposing to substitute
lethal gas for the electric chair as a
method of capital punishment.
Two reasons are going to react for
the measure. First is that the old
electric chair last year snuffed out
an even score of lives, eight of them
white men, to bring it total to 149 in
its Is years of existence in the state.
The other is that the chair and its
equipment are rapidly -deteriorating
and are going to have to be replaced
any way. There are those who esti-
mate that the cost of replacing the
chair will be little less than the cost
of installing lethal gas chamber.
