Island to Claiborne.
Manager Sherman is already in
conference with marine architects.
1t is possible that this boat, if con-
tracted for, will be steam driven. The
latest type Of low pressure steam en-
gines for boats is claimed to be more
satisfactory and more economical for
maintenance than any other kind of
power. This phase Mr.. Sherman is
particularly looking into.
Plans for the summer schedule were
approved. The steamer Harrington
will be put into service and will run
between Claiborne and Annapolis.
The Dennis" and the "Ritchie" will
be put on the Annapolis-M atapeake
route and will maintain an hourly

forthcoming General Assembly to es-
tablish the last two years of a four
year medical school for the University
of North Carolina here in Raleigh, in
order to prevent the abolition of the
present two-year medical course of
fered at Chapel Hill. 1t is generally
agreed that unless Carolina or Wake
Forest expands it's medical school in
to a four-year school, the American
Medical Association will insist upon
the abolition of both the two-year
schools. In fact, the rating committee
of the American Medical Association
turned thumbs down on both the
Wake Forest and Carolina schools a
little over a year ago and this ban
was lifted, it is understood, only to
give time for one or the other to go
to a four-year school.
At one time there was talk of the
establishment of a combined Carolina
and Wake Forest medical school here
in Raleigh which would permit the
continuance of the present two-year
pre-med schools at both Wake Forest
and Chapel Hill, and into which both
of these would feed their medical
students. But now most of those who
have studied the question agree that
such a school year would have to be
either a part of the University or of
Wake Forest and that public money
could not be appropriated to help a
private, UNCONVENTIONAL college, such
as. Wake Forest, Accordingly, indi-
cations now are that an attempt will
first be made to get the legislature

again and buy in large lots. For these
purchasers are generally conceded to
be bootleggers who sell this liquor
they purchase from the liquor stores
to customers who want it after the
stores close, or on Sundays and holi-
days, it is maintained
If man comes into liquor store
and buys Is or 20 pints or quarts of
assorted liquors only once in two or
three weeks, he is probably merely
buying it for his own USE" a man who
has been in close contact with these
county liquor stores said here today.
But if a man comes into store and
buys Is or 20 pints or quarts of three
or four principal brands two or three
times a week, the chances are that
this man is bootlegging it. Most of
the clerks can learn to spot these
bootlegger purchasers in very short
time and distinguish them from those
buying for their own use. If the coun-
ty ABC boards are striving for any
sort of control and want to eliminate
bootlegging, they should instruct
their store managers to refuse to sell
liquor to those whom they have rea-
son to believe are buying it for pur-
poses of resale. For while they may
lose some sales volume by doing this,
they will gain the respect of the peo-
pie in the community and show they
are not operating the stores merely
for the revenue the counties are get
ting from them
Reports have been current here for
some time that in some counties the
bootleggers are not being bothered
provided they buy the liquor they
bootleg from the county liquor stores,
but no proof has been presented that
this is tn So. A. is agreed by
good many, however, that some of
the stores are not very particular in
sales.

to provide an appropriation for the
establishment of the last two years
Of medical work here in Raleigh so
the University may have a standard
four-year medical school, If this move
fails, it is believed that Wake Forest
will then undertake to establish a
four-year school, with the final two
years of work here.
That Raleigh is the logical place
for the establishment of the last two
years is generally conceded by doc
tors and laymen alike, since it offers
more facilities for clinical work than
any other city. The State Hospital for
the Insane, with some 1900 patients,
is located here, as is the prison sys-
tenn hospital in the Central Prison.
with an average daily population of
some $50 patients. This prison hos
pital handles all the hospital cases in
the prison system of some $500 pri-
soners. In addition to these two large
and fully equipped State hospitals,
there are two other hospitals in the
city which undoubtedly would be will
ing to cooperate with the medical
school and in which the medical stu
dents could work as internes. If the
State should decide to open a general
clinical hospital, it is pointed out
that it could undoubtedly either lease
or buy the old Rex Hospital building
for this purpose. Because of the hos
pital facilities which already exist
here, it is maintained that the State
or University would not have to
build any new buildings, especially if
it should lease or buy the old Rex
hospital plant.

On the war front, Fascist insur-

Madrid at many points, and demand
ed immediate surrender of the capital
under threat of destruction by bonn
bardment from land and air.
They were within striking distance
of Madrid.
Madrid's weary militiamen fought
on to defend their shrinking territory,
with unflinching stubbornness. In
the countryside about 25 miles south
west of the capital, they held COM
handing but hard-battered positions.
Moscow declined to expand it's neu-
trality ultimatum, leading some to
believe immediate Soviet aid was
forthcoming for Madrid. Others
thought the warning was only a ges-
;ure.

Speaking Of the conditions at the

have about l,100 of all kinds of
worthless prisoners here and only
about half enough officers to look
after them" In explaining why he
sought the freedom of the two youths,
Barnard said, II have no excuse to
offer for their offense.' .-
In his reply Judge Mattingly de-
clined to reconsider the case and
agreed with the superintendent that
"as you say you have no excuse to
offer for their offense, and I concur
in that conclusion"
Penalties Always Given.
"I have sent every man who has
been brought before me in the last 16
years on similar charges to Jail, and
even within the last month have had
to inflict q penalty of at least six
months in several cases of single
offenses," wrote Judge Mattingly.
THE only reason the boys you refer
to gave for their outrageous conduct
was that they pulled the fire alarms
for the fun Of it. Others generally
say they just wanted to see the engines
run.
II have had many appeals on be-
half OF these offenders, and have the

but I do not think they are entitled to
any greater consideration than others
who have committed similar offenses.
