PRINCETON, N. j., Jan. 80.
"Populism in the Old Dominion"
a comprehensive 178-page study
of the rise and fall of the Popu-
list party in Virginia in the early
'90'S, was off the press here to-
day, the work of youthful Wash
ington author.
The author is William DuBoSe
Sheldon, son of Comd1. Luther
Sheldon, jr.. U. S. NJ, 1850 Kalo-
rama Rd. N. w. Young Sheldon
graduated from Princeton Univer-
sity in 1884. In Washington he
attended Western High School.
The treatise deals with the Vir-
GINA farm political situation dur
ing the period 1885-90. Among
those prominently mentioned in
the book is Edmund Randolph
Cooke. grandson of Gov. Edmund
Randolph and a friend of R. E.
Lee, Col. Robert Beverly, Mann
Page and C. Fl. Pierson, Mr..
Cooke, former Princeton student
and a Confederate officer in his

Hits Fee System

Creation of a system of State
regional jails, jail farms and
camps was also asked by the com
mittee. L. called for the use Of
county jails onl.' "for the purpose
of temporary detention" A com
mittee state ment read:
Severe criticism has been
directed at the present fee
system, whereby the c0mpensa-
ton Of Jail custOdians is con.
tingent upon per diem fees
based on the number Of prison
ers in their charge.
Studies and reports show
that the jaiIs are In most
instances antiquated and made
quate structures, unSanitary
and poorly kept in many cases,
and that there is no need for q
jail in each county,"
The Washington times., 1936-01-30

MOND, Va, Jan. 80.
Abolition of the fee system as
a method of compromising public
officials will be demanded by the
Virginia State Chamber of Com
merce If it follows the recon-
mendation of it's committee on
taxation and government.
All full-time public officials
should be placed on salaries to
be determined by the local gov
erning bodies, subject to review
by the State compensation board,
the committee urged.
Custodian of jailS, court clerks,
justices of the peace and Sheriffs
still receive compensation through
fees, according to the committee,
which wants all fees paid directly
into the public treasury.

JOB INSURANCE
STIRS RIFT IN
VIRGINIA

RICHM OND, Jan. 30.-The
senate finance committee today
is taking a vacation from hear
ings on a bill proposing Virginia's
adoption of a law parallelling the
Federal unemployment insurance
act.
The vacation is not a peaceful
one, for the committee is torn
apart on the question. One of the
patrons of the bill, an Admins
tration measure, is Senator John
S. Battle, Albemarle, member
Of the committee.
Upon him has fallen much of
the task of defending the meas
ure to doubling committeeman.
Bolstering the pleas of the
patrons have been those Of the
Department of Labor of Virginia,
the Virginia League Of Women
Voters and other organizations.
To them the act means "scien-
tific" care of the unemployed in
stead Of uncoordinated charity.
Opponents of the bill have sent
industrialists before the commit
tee to argue against the act. They
firei one of their big guns yeSter-
day when J. Randolph Tucker,
counsel for the Virginia Manufac-
turers Association, told the COM
mittee that Virginia employers are
mot going to pay a cent of the
Federal unemployment insurance
tax until conStitutionality of the
Federal act has been tested"
Pointing out that constitution
atty of the Federal act is doubted
in tn, wording of the Virginia act,
which says the State act shall be
imperative so days after the Fed
eral act is declared unconstitu-
tional. Mr.. Tucker said the Gen.
eral Assembly would be violating
a fundamental principle in adopt
ing the act at this time. He said:
ut is plain that the State law
Is tied up with the Federal law,
and that the State law shows
q legislative doubt. To doubt
should be to deny.
"The plan provided that the
State, to avoid chaStiSement by
its overload. the Federal gov
eminent. must shelve all its
plans and accept the Federal
plan"
The Washington times., 1936-01-30
NEW AUDITING
PLAN URGED

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 30.-The
total cost of all governmental units
in Virginia will be easily ascer-
tanned if the office of the State
auditor accepts communications
made by the committee on taxa
ton and government of the Vir.
GINA State Chamber of Com
merce.
An extension of uniform &C.
counting and annual auditing to
include cities and towns is sought
by the committee. This would sup
plement existing tabulation of
State and county receipts and ex
penditures and put uniform town
reports on an organized instead
of a purely voluntarily basis.
If the committees recommends.
lions are adopted, municipality
owned utilities will be required to
maintain accounts and records
comparable to those of privately
owned utilities. Annual reports of
operations to the State Corpora
ton Commission would be re-
quired.
