OTHERS VIEWS
IT'S THE LOCAL TAX BILLS THAT
HURT, ACCORDING TO THIS.

To the Editor
Do you remember the dark days of
late 1882? Before Mr. Hoover parked
in the White House we kept cool with
Coolidge. 1t was easy to keep cool
then. There was nothing to get hot
about. We were on a gambling SPREE
Mr.. Coolidge saw the hand writing
on the wall and realized this keep
ing cool with Coolidge was about to
take a walk so he passed the buck to
Herb. Then Herb went hay-wire and
everyone followed his leadership. He
did his best to give us two cars in
every garage and a tender bird in
every pot, but he walked out on us
when we asked him for a "cOol bot
tie" to wash the tender bird down.
President Hoover did the job to the
best of his ability, but he was gun
shy" on doing something different
and taking a gamblers chance, so we
turned to FD.R. Before F. D. r. I'M
packed his grips in the White House,
he told the world that drastic steps
would have to be taken. So the Am
erican people told him to hop to it.
These days were so dark that the
fI0SlOonI dIlQ oil CIlc pcOplc COulO AlOL
see the Empire State Building in
| broad day light, block away. F.D.R.
made it plain that he would make
| mistakes, but that he would'do some
| thing about it, shoot first and talk
later on. Now that stocks are climb
ing back to normal, we have a neat
little balance in the bank and coal in
the bin, we are cussing and discuss
ing the President and belly aching
about the bill we have to pay. The
Federal bills are joke compared to
our County and State bills. These To-
cal tax bills were sky high before
Mr. Hoover or Roosevelt were on
Capitol Hill. So you can't charge these
great men with the stupidity of our
Governors, Mayors, County Officials,
the boys who spend our local cost.
Voters be kind and give praise to
one who has brought us through these
dark and trying times to where the
sun light of confidence is stamped
upon the brows of every honest and
intelligent business who does not
want special privileges.
And when you read and hear pro
pagander that Roosevelt will ruin the
Country financially put the pro-
pagandist down to facts
Roosevelt has spent about 100000
100000 to date, helping to. save your
bank, home, ard feeding the hungry
With 125, 100000 people in the United
States of America, the average per
capita is $50 for the $4,000, 100000
| spent, which is a. good investment
after considering the conditions our
Country was in March, 1888, three
f; short years ago.
Roosevelt is an ace, why not call
him one. {

1. In 1888 North Carolina paid 11.4O
percent of the total federal internal
revenue, and received 1.41 percent of
the total federal relief. Virginia paid
5.4 prcent tax bill and received 1876
percent relief; Tennessee paid O59
percent and received 200 percent re-
lief; South Carolina paid O.41 percent

g. Bechtler established his mint IN
1881 and operated it until 1857. The
government made an investigation
and found that the Bechtler dollars
weighed more than the u. S. dollars.
Another reason was the great need
for specie in the piedmont section.
A total of 22O,24O, according to
the 1880 census.
A. After the Constitution of the
United States had been ratified in
1889 the North Carolina legislature
required members of the North Caro-
lima delegation to congress to visit
the annual sessions of the State body
This was for the purpose of receiv-

New York, Aug. 28-Many Things:
NO one, l think, manages to look so
richly sun-tanned as AL JolsOn -. 1
saw Edward Arnold at a cafe table
next to mine the other night and he
is pleasant fellow to watch -. Now
that movie fame and money has des-
cended upon him suddenly in the
middle years, he is as frankly delight
ed with it all and as candidly revealing
In adulation and tinsel as small boy
-. The late Marie Dressler, who also
rocketed to the peak after earlier
success and a long dip, was never
able to be completely happy without
an accompanying dour memory of the
bleak stretches
Simone Simon, the new flicker cutie
has the pronunciation of her name
explained in the ads Si-MOAlN ST.
MOAN; but Frenchmen point out that
there is magnificently subtle diff
ference between the utterance of the
first and last monickers -. Well,
that discussion is too hair-splitting
even for me -. But it does interest
me the stories they tell of her early
girlhood-she is a mere 10 now
when she strolled among the aston
ished natives of the island of NADIA
gascar, where her father is a rich
miner, with two leopard cubs on a
leash -. Lily Pons, 1 hear, is in the
market for a young juguar, now that
her favOrite is in the zoo-too savage
for the parlor in it's adult state 80.
Ernest Hemingway in his newest
tale, suggests that a woman would
lose all love for her husband because
he ran from lion =. The story, a
gruesome gripper, has most male
readers full of pity for the white
feathered character before the end
although 1870 of them would run too
-. 1 would -. Incidentally, I am told
that Mr.. Hemingway has recently &C
quired pet mouse =. A large bear
has been shot, beaver cornered and
