COMPARE THE PAST

In 1879 our gross national debt was 26 IL billion. In II years it
was reduced by 10 IL billion. With national income soaring to
80 billion and business flourishing. It might have been wholly
wiped out had not Republicans lowered income taxes in the
higher brackets three times and returned excess war profits to
profiteers

has been substantially increased I'M
der the Roosevelt administration,
but it should. be remembered that
this nation has something to show
for its expenditures"
To counterbalance the debt, Mr..
Hoey said, were the following:
1. I'VE still have a nation with
a Democratic form of government
with the Constitution unchang-
ed"
2. 1--WE have solvent obligations
... that will reduce the national
debt more than $4,000, 1000"
3. 1.-The national income in
creased from $3S,oO0,0 00, 900 in
the last year Of Hoover's admins
tration to 100000, 100000 this
year."

cial wreckage for the nation with a
record like that" he added.

COMPARE OTHER NATIONS

Our gross per capita debt is 1854; England's $s47; Frances
$685.; An English citizen (married, 2 children) begins paying
taxes on as small income as $780,; he pays 10 times more than
an American on s., 1000. Although most Americans also pay
state income taxes, sometimes equal to federal leves. English and
French tax burdens are still far heavier.

Clyde R. Hoey, Democratic can
didate for Governor, in an address
last night, said his legislative prog

books, emphasis on increased agri-
cultural development, and adoption
of old age pensh IS.
A packed courthouse greeted Mr..
Hoey. The aisles and corridors were
TANNED. Hundreds heard the speech
via the loud speaker route on the
lawn.
Hon. Stable Linn, of the local
bar, introduced the speaker.
Prior to the introduction, Walter
H. Woodson, Jr., Chairman of the
Rowan County Democratic Exc
cutive Committee, presented to the
huge audience, the Democratic
nominees of Rowan County.
He praised the Democratic record
in the State and contrasted it with
the record of Kansas under Gov
n Landon, the Republican can
didate for President. He lauded
President R~oosevelt's record in be-
half of the farmer, the laborer and
business.
eve all know that the Roosevelt
administration has increased taxes"
said the Governor-nominee, ''but we
also know that it has greatly in
creased income. The net result of
this is that every business and every
corporation can pay the increased
faxes and still have more than twice
as much profit left as they were
able to make under the Republican
administration"
"The burden OF the assault being
made upon President Roosevelt and
the Democratic party is that the
country has been plunged into
debt and that it will require genera
tons to meet and discharge these
obligations.
"There is no basis for this fear
and no cause for alarm.

Farm cash income is up so per cent.
National savings at 50 IL billion have recovered more than
half their depression loss; securities on the New York Stock Ex-

weekly payrols for March, 1886, were about Fl million more

Charlotte Gets Branch
Office

The Salisbury District offices of
the social security board will be
opened around the first or middle
of Nov, according to advices re-
ceived from Washington this week.
Headquarters will be on the third
floor of the local post office build
ling, it is announced.
Congressman R. L. Doughton, of
tbs district, was instrumental in OBJ
tanning the offices for Salisbury.
1t is planned by the Washington
Southeastern regional office, which
includes North Carolina, to open
these offices about November IS,
with complete personnel taken from
civil service rolls.
The branch offices in North
Carolina at Asheville, Greensboro,
and Charlotte are to be opened soon
after operations start at Salisbury
and Raleigh district offices. In ad-
ditfon, it's expected that other Of
fices will be placed in Durham,
Winston-Salem, and Wilmington.
Managers of the Salisbury and
Raleigh Offices will be announced
some time during the next two
weeks, it was thought at the social
security board All matters in re-
gard to the region which includes
North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland
and the District of Columbia are
directed by G. C. Parker, regional
director, who is farther ahead in
his plans than are several other dir
ectorS.
The North Carolina offices have
no relation to probable State legis-
laton, contrary to the general be-
lief, but will deal solely with Title
II, of the social security act. Under
this head old-age benefits are paid
in amounts depending on past earn
ings of the individual to those IS
and over in 1912. No question of
need is involved, and no State leg
islation is required.
Title 2 of the act is often con-
fused with Title 1, which provides
old age assistance. Under Title 1
of the law payments are made to
the needy aged (65 and over) by
the Federal treasury, matching State
payments up to a combined total of
$50 a month. This requires State
legislation in North Carolina, as
does Title 3, which provides n
employment compensation by with
drawal from the Federal treasury of
State credits up to 90 per cent of
what the State has paid.
Under Title 2 of the act, which
is to be administered by the Sails
bury and other offices in North
Carolina, old-age benefits or n
nuities are paid beginning in 1912
to every one regardless of what the
State does. The only requirement
is that a qualified individual must
be at least IS years of age and must
have received total wages with re-
spect to employment after Deem
Der 81, 1886, and before attaining
IS years of age, of not less han
$4,000, and have been employed in
five different calendar years after
December 81, 1886, before attain
ing the age of IS years.

One definite forecast gan be
made at this time in regard to the
presidential election of November
8. That is, that the total vote for
all presidential candidates will be
greatly in excess of the number of
ballots cast in any previous cleo
ton.
Both of the major parties have
been concentrating a great deal of
their energies upon seeing to it
that every n of their prospective
voters vas registered, and the re-
suit SO far has been a surprising
increase in the total registration.
In New York State, for example,
the registration is nearly a million
in excess of the number who voted
in the 1882 presidential election.
The increased registration is pro-
portionately somewhat less heavy
in other states, but on the whole it
is a safe bet that there are around
IS percent more citizens in the ma
ton qualified to vote this year than
ever before.
The effort to get out the vote
does not end, of course, with see
ing that all possible voters are reg
istered. From now until the morn
ing of election day the most vigor-
Gus efforts will be made to see to
it that not only those newly regist-
cred but all of the previously quail
fled voters, in states where annual
registration is not required, actual
ly go to the polls. That will not be
such a difficult task as it has been
in many previous elections. The
proverbial apathy of the American
voters seems to be a minus quanti-
ty this year. Certainly not since
1916 has partisan spirit run such a
high temperature and penetrated SO
deeply into the mass of voters.
EXPECT HEAVIEST VOTE
While there are no exact figures
of the total number of persons
qualified to vote in the entire ma
ton, there are somewhere above
$4,000, 600 citizens who have
reached the age of Fl and who can
vote if they have been duly regist-
cred.
The heaviest vote VT cast was
in 1882 when 3~9,S16,522 citizens
went to the polls. That the popu-
lar vote will run closer to 10000
900 than 10000, 900 this year is
the expectation of all of the best
Informed political observers.
All of the political signs point
not only to a heavy vote, but to a

THE TAX

Internal revenue comes mainly from two sources-from taxes
which affect things we buy, largely luxuries, and from taxes on
income and inhertances. You pay heavier taxes now because you
buy and earn more.
l. To existing taxes from the first source, the New Deal has
added little, principally:
Q) AAA processing taxes which raised the total cost Of living
less than per cent while the AAA raised farm prices 81 per
cent and ~ payroll taxes starting in 1886, to meet the cost of
Social Security. We have always footed the bill for old age, I'M
employment ana neglected childhood. Now, as do other civilized
nations, we will pay in an orderly way for 100 per cent more
humane care.
II. To income and inheritance taxes the New Deal has added
little for the average taxpayer. 1t has strictly applied the rule of
ability to pay. In 1885, it boosted rates of surtax on incomes over
$4,000. In 1886, it revised the regular corporation income
taxes, lowering the rates on incomes under $4,000, and placed
a new graduated surtax on undistributed corporation earnings SO
as to reach capitalists who formerly left business profits piled up
in corporation treasures rather than pay rightful individual sur
taxes or dividends.
Had it not been for passing The bonus and onHaving the process
ing taxes for farm relief, no rise in 1886 would bape been needed.
