Mrs. Wallace McClelland and

when a APPOINT buck deer leaped
into the path of their automobile,
collided with it and broke his neck.
All the few things they knew about
game laws came to mind, and the

game wardens and Jail terms
reared their ugly heads in imagina-

came along, told the women he

Since Congress has not yet enacted

not yet enacted the State compact law
it's General Assembly has been con-
sidering for several weeks and since
Governor -Ehringhaus has not yet
stated flat-footedly that he Will CAL
a special session even if Congress ana
South Carolina enact the required
State pacts legislation, although 1t
was the belief of many that he had
agreed to call a special session If Con-
gress and South Carolina did act, the
belief now is that the only course
open is to cooperate with the Fed
eral government under the soil con-
servation act. For while good many
of the members of the steering COM
mittee are still of the opinion that
Governor Ehringhaus will be forced
to call a special session. of the Cen
eral Assembly if both Congress and
South Carolina pass the State COM
pacts bill now Before them, most of
those here who know the governor
think it will be possible to skate on a
frigid film over hades before a spe-
cial session of the legislature is likely
to be called for the enactment of to-
bacco legislation or anything else.
Governor Interested.
There is no doubt that the governor
is geneuinely interested in the well
fare of the tobacco growers and wants
to do what he can to help them also
that he realizes that if the bottom
falls out of tobacco prices this fall
every person in the State, including
the State government, will feel the eff
fects. Yet it is agreed by many obser-
vers that the governor is convinced
a special session might be just as
dangerous as low tobacco prices, and
he is undoubtedly hoping and pray
ing that neither Congress nor South
Carolina will enact the State compact
laws now before them. 1t is maintain
ed that Governor Ehringhaus only
further accumulated his opposition to
a special session in the telegram he
sent to Senator Paul Quattlebaum of
South Carolina yesterday, in which he
maintained he had been miSquOted by
Quattlebaum who had told the commit
tee considering the South Carolina
State compact bill that Governor En-
ringhaus had agreed to call special
session of the North Carolina legisla-
ture if the South Carolina bill should
&c enacted. In his wire to Senator
Quattlebaum, Governor Ehringhaus
1aid:
I'm order that there may be GER
tainty as to my commitment, permit
me to repeat what I have said over
the radio and elsewhere: I am ready
to call a special session of our Gen
eral Assembly whenever it becomes
manifest that effective control of this
years production of flue-cured tobac-
co can be accomplished by so doing"
1t is being pointed out that Cover
nor Ehringhaus undoubtedly intends
to be the sole judge of when it be-
comes manifest" that the tobacco crop
can be controlled by special ses-
sion. The belief grows here that he is
already convinced that a special ses-
sion and a State compact law will
not provide reflective control" of this
years tobacco crop and that no ses-
sion will be held.

market who for the past week has

ers, stated this morning that he

Mr. Cobb said he was still of the
opinion that the poundage would be
light, but the quality good in most
cases.
The Greenvil!a market will open on

buyers and 10 warehouses operated
with warehousemen with years of ex-
perience.
Several of the factories in Green

her becoming IS years of age. Thus
an employee who earned SIS month
for 10 years prior to becoming 05
years old, will get a monthly benefit
payment of 500 a month as long as
ne lives.
Commissioner Fletcher estimates
that these two new offices to be set
up in the State soon will have to set
up records on between 100000 and
100000 employees in hundreds of diff
ferent industries included under the
act.
Two Separate Provisions.
There are two separate and distinct
provisions in the national social Sc
curity act for aiding old people, and
these two provisions are still general
ly confused in the minds of most peo-
pie, Commissioner A. L. Fletcher. OF
the State Department of Labor point
ed out today. These two different pro-
visions are:
1. Old age assistance, which pro-
vides for State cooperation in the pay
ment of immediate sums to persons
in excess Of IS or 70 years of age,
not to exceed $50 a month, of which
the State and Federal government put
up half each. Up to March 81, 1885,
there were 81 states which had old
age assistance plans approved by the
Social Security Board and through
June 80, 1886, the sum of $24,66O 900
had been made available for allot-
ment to states whose plans for COOP
Grafton had been approved
2 Old age benefits, which is moth
ing more than a compulsory annuity
insurance system under which both
the employers and employees pay a
premium or tax of one per cent on
payrolls and wages, beginning jan
nary l. 1887, but in which no one
will benefit until January 1, 1912,
when those then become SIS years of
age will receive monthly payments
based on his total previous earnings.
Before the old age assistance @
pension plan can go into effect In
North Carolina, the General Assem-
bly, will have to enact legislation
line with the Federal law, and also
provide an appropriation with which
to match Federal grants Commits
sioner Fletcher said at is estimated
that an appropriation of from $500, 900
to 100000 a year will be needed to
provide pension of $50 a month for
all those in the State IS years old or
older who will be able to qualify for it.
"The old age benefit plan will go
into effect January 1, 1887, without
any legislative action by the State
and employers will have to pay a tax
of one per cent year on their pay
rolls and employees a tax of one per
cent year on their wages, up to So
900 year, although no benefits will
be paid under this plan until after
