there will be no roads built unless
coming general assemblies authorize
some new bond issues for this pur-
pose, since all of the present highway
revenue is needed for maintenance
betterments and debt srvice, highway
officials point out. So the highway
commission is expected to give whole
hearted approval to the suggestion of
Mr.. Johnson.
School Group Favorable.
1t was expected by some that the
school forces of the State would OPP
pose any new bond issue for high
ways, partly because such a move
might tend to reduce the chances for
diverting more money from the high
way fund to the general fund to be
used for school purposes, and partly
because it was believed the school
forces would oppose any increase for
roads without a corresponding i'm
crease for schools. But julie B. War
rem, secretary of the North Carolina
Education Association, today said he
thought the johnson proposal was
worthy of very serious considera-
ton" and intimated that he did not

that the present highway surplus will
be almost entirely expended by the
end of this fiscal year and that most
OF this has had to be used in patch
ing and repairing old or inadequate
roads which have gone to pieces from
heavy traffic and bad weather. He
pointed out that the State could now
issue about $25,00O,O0O in bonds to be
used in new construction and in re-
constructing old roads, and pay these
off in Is years without increasing the
debt service requirements above their
present figure, thus making it unnec-
essary to levy any new taxes or in
crease any road taxes. This move
would make it impossible to decrease
either the gasoline or motor vehicle
taxes, he pointed out however.
Johnson further contended that it
would be good economy to issue these
bonds since the building of more ade-
quate main highways would make
more money available for better main
tenance and more surfacing Of the
secondary roads, many of which are
now being neglected because of the
heavy cost of trying to maintain so
many miles of old, worn out and in
adequate main highways.
Waynick Believed Favorable.
While Chairman Capus M. Waynick,
of the State Highway and Public
Works Commission, could not be
reached for a statement today, the be-
lief is that he will be heartily in IA
vor of the Johnson proposal. No one
knows better than Chairman Way
nick how strong the demand for new
road construction is becoming and
how delegations pour in from every
corner of the State at each meeting
of the commission asking and even
demanding new roads. Within the last
two years the highway commission
has received requests for more than
5000, 0cr Zoo worth of new road con-
struction, vet has had no State money
available for it. In fact, it has been
almost ten years since any State
money has been appropriated for
highway construction, except that ap-

CRAFT UNION FOR
SCARCITY POLICY
Machinists, for Example,
Will Permit Only Few
Apprenticeships
BY CHARLES y. STEWART
Cntral Press Staff Writer

Washington, Aug. 10-Craft union
sm's objection to industrial union
ism is easily understandable.
Perhaps it is unfair to say that
craft unionists outright object to
unionization on industrial lines; they
profess to be favorable to it in GER
tain circumstances. However, the
industrial unionists charge that the
craftsmen have sabotaged the for
mers' efforts to effect vertical organ
Hation 1t is a fact that the craft
dominated A. F. of l.. has been very
hesitant to grant charters to the in
dusrial type of unions, anyway.
POLICY ONE OF SCARCITY
The machnists, for example, are
a highly skilled trade.
Their interest is to maintain ma
chnists wages at a maximum.
John d. Frey, president of the A. F.
of LIS metal trade department, which
includes the machinists' union, is a
leader in the campaign to discipline
John l.. Lewis, messiah of the indus
trial movement, and his followers.
TO a certain extent they have been
able to do this, through the exercise
of a kind of monopoly. That is to
say. they have controlled apprentice
ship; they have permitted only linn
tied number of young men to learn
their craft They have seen to it
that. in normal times, machinists
were kept fairly scarce. There may
have been an excess of them during
the depression, but not ordinarily.
A NARROWED VIEW
Now. machinists services are re-
CURED in many different industries.
A given industry may employ a
comparatively small staff of machin-
lists but a great deal of other classes
of less adequately paid labor.
The pay of other labor has been a
matter of Indifference to the mach
inists They have theirs" as the
saying is; their concern ends there.
I do not mean this too literally
Many an enlightened craft unonist
has a kee nregard for the welfare of
morganzed labor, as we'll as for
that of his own and affiliated crafts.
But the natural tendency is to mar
row the craftsmens viewpoint.
Relatively unskilled workers sense
it, Trey complain of the tyranny of
labor as we'll as the tyranny of

 Although the Graves squad is ac- corded the edge, because of faster offense, the winning margin should be narrow, as Krause has a defense that should hold down the count, while lack of a real scoring threat is the Concreters' weakness.
