RELIEF OPENS FOR
! THEATRICAL FOLKS
Call for Such Made by Lo-
cal Office, Together With
! Some LaborerS

At last relief is heading in this part
of the country toward theatrical folk.
The New Deal has apparently reached
around to most other folks and is
now extending the helping hand in
their direction.
w M. Burwell, manager of the local
office of the National Unemployment
Service stated today his office has
been asked to secure the names of all
persons who have had any theatrical
experience, training or ambitions. All
unemployable persons who are inter-
ested should register at the office, 1T
was stated. Miss Mary Diruberger'
supervisor of relief education, who
has been loaned to the Federal the
atre project, has called for the infor-
nation, Mr.. Burwell said, adding that
her purpose was to interview person
ally any Of the registrants she might
be interested in.
The office manager also stated that
he has had a call for four brick ma
sons with relief status; also four
bridge carpenters for three months
work and rs cents an hour; one heat
er, 40 hours a week at $l.1O per hour;
two furniture statesmen with cars,
for sales and collections, $40 per week
to start and commission on a mini
mum of $1,000 sales per month. He
said these openings were in other
towns of the State.
1t was stated that the reemploy-
ment office has a large list of steno-
graphers, typists, bookkeepers and
clerical workers, and will be glad to
have employers avail themselves of
the services of these workers where
needed. All persons who have not re-
newed their cards in the last 60 days
were asked to do so at once if they
are not unemployed.

While Smith Reynolds was living in
North Carolina at the time of his
death, his will was made and filed
in New York, while his fortune, which
he disposed of in the will, was in the
custody of a trust company in Mary
land.
"Still another factor, and probably
the biggest, is that this case is too
big a gold mine for the lawyers by
them to permit it to be settled by
agreement. The result is that they are
going to carry it through every court
they can and delay any settlement
just as long as they can in order to
keep the fees rolling in as long as
possible For this Reynolds estate
case is just like taking milk from a
COW with a milking machine for the
lawyers and they are going to get all
the milk they can from it before turn
ing over what is left to the heirs.
"As a result of these facts and the
many legal questions involved, I do
not see how the state can expect to
get the 100000 in inheritance taxes
due any time soon, may live to see
it paid to the State, but I doubt it.
That $2OO0,OO0 is still a long way
from the State treasury"

the possibility of any opinion on the
validity Of these laws until after the
Democratic primary in June, 1886, it
did point out the manner in which
the drys can test the constitutionality
of these laws. The court suggested
that the proper manner for the drys
to bring a test case was to have some
person indicted, arrested and tried for
violating the State prohibition laws,
after this person has made a pur
chase of LIQUOR from one of the coun-
ty liquor stores.
Fear Affirmation
ABut so far there is no indication
that any move has been made or is
even under consideration to bring a
test case, despite the fact that thou
sands of persons are making thous-
ands of purchases in these county
liquor stores every day, any one of
which could be indicted by the drys
for the purpose of bringing a test
case. Or there are plenty of others
who would glady volunteer to buy
pint or a quart in order to give the
drys an opportunity to get out an
indictment and bring a test case, es-
Ccially if the drys would furnish the
money for the purchase of the "evi-
dence"
There are two principal reasons,
however, for the belief that the drys
do not want test case brought be-
fore the Supreme Court any time
soon. The first is that the dry lead
ers are now inclined to agree with
the vets that if the question of the
constitutionality of the county liquor
control laws should be submitted to
the Supreme Court, it would hold
them constitutional, probably by a
four to one decision, with Associate
Justice Heriot Clarkson the only mem
Der dissenting. This in turn would re-
suit in an immediate movement from
the other counties who want similar
laws for an extra session of the Gen
eral Assembly to pass either similar
laws for them or to pass a Statewide
liquor control law under which any
counties which might want liquor
stores could hold local elections and
have them if the people so voted.
The second reason for the belief
that the drys do not want to test the

It said the protest should have been
directed to the Manchuokuan govern
ment.
Soviet authorities exressed "sur-
prise" in the second note at the JNp-
anese action. They said that, mas
much as the Japanese have taken res
possibility for military protection"
of Manchuokuo they should not de-
cline to answer the first protest di-
rectly.
Japanese, as well as Manchuokuan
soldiers were involved in the clash,
the Soviet officials declared. One
Soviet officer was killed and another
officer and soldier wounded in the
encounter. The disorder began, the
Japanese say, when Soviet patrols
fired without warning on what they
called INVADING troops"
The Japanese have denied their
detachment invaded Soviet territory,
because the border has not been clear
ly identified. The Soviet answered the
border line had been fixed by treaty
with China and these treaties have

raj Assembly. But the drys do not
want a special session because they
are hoping that conditions will be-
come SO bad in these II counties that
have liquor stores that they can
arouse public opinion sufficiently
against the liquor store system by
time for the 1927 session of the legis-
Iature, to block any further liquor
control legislation.
Even most of these who favor le-
gal sale of liquor in the State through
liquor stores, favor State-controlled
system rather than the county sy-
stems of liquor stores and agree that
there is much more danger Of the

his rooms at the Vance Hotel, Hen

Nov. 7th, from 100 P. M. to 500
F.. M. and 700 P. M. to 900 P. M.
Ask the Hotel Clerk for the
numbers of Mr.. Meinhardis rooms.
Only men are invited.
The Meinhardi Rupture Shield
retains the rupture on the aver

cation-no matter how much you
exercise, lift, or strain. The Mein-

nodded to each individual as a
Dentist makes false teeth. (No leg
straps and no cumbersome ar
rangements).
It is waterproof, sanitary, prac-
tically indestructible, and may be
worn while bathing or sleeping
continuously day and night un-

above date. He will be glad to re-

than if these stores were under the
control of a central State board.
But the dry forces dliberately de-
eated the better state-controlled IL
quor stores system during the gen
orally assembly and thus forced the
enactment of the admittedly poorer
system of county liquor stores, by re-
fusing to compromise. This was an
Indication to many that the drys
were determined that if there was to
be any liquor legally sold, it was to
be under the least desirable system,
with the exception of the bootleg sy-
stem. It is now believed they are

casions on the trip; it would be quite
