by the State Budget Bureau acting
under the direction of the 1897 liquor
control act. A delegation of three
from the Association of County ABC
boards came to Raleigh about that
yesterday, and, after first seeing Mr..
Moore, held a long conference with
r. G. Deyton, assistant director of
the budget. After the conference, Mr..
Deyton said that he believed matters
had been pretty well smoothed out.
The county men, he said, felt at first
that their boards are being required
to do much too much detail work in
connection with the audits, but were
converted when the disputed provi-
siOnS were explained.
The county delegation consisted of
Fred Poisson, of New Hanover: S. P.
Sltterson, of Lenior; and E. H. Kicks,
OF Halifax. 1t was selected as the re-
suit of a meeting of the county ARC
association last Friday, though it is
generally reported that only q minor
ity of the control counties (12 to
be exact were represented at the
session, which decided to take up the
matter of the audit with State Off
Gals.
The auditing system throws a very
tight check-rein around the stocks
maintained by the county stores, as
we'll as calling for full and complete
accounting for all money collected by
the county stores. The county men
were not so antagonistic to the none
tary provisions as they were to. those
dealing with the stocks.
The obvious breach between State
and county boards is not a thing
which has grown up only yesterday
but is long existing. It dates back, in
fact, to the very initiation of any
form of State control and is just an
other outward manifestation of the
deep-seated objections of county au-
thorities to what they feel are I'M
warranted encrOachments by the
State upon the prerogativos and rev
enues of local governmental units. The
liquor law was written as a com
promise between ardent advocates OF
full and complete county authority
typified by Tom Cooper, now mayor
of Wilmington and then member OF
the House-and those who wanted a
Statewide system similar to that in
Virginia-of which group Victor
Bryant, of Durham, was representa-
tive Neither side got what it wanted
and so today neither side is content
with what it got.
Worthy of some note in connection
with the differences is the fact that
w. D. Mcmillan, chairman of the
New Hanover board, from which a
great deal of the friction comes, was
a candidate for the State board chair
manship - the post to which Mr.
Moore was appointed.

to effect the desired end, and they
are, therefore, determined to get the
matter befor the people of the State
far enough ahead of the time for &C
ton to give them plenty of oppor-
tunity for consideration.
Very first step in the matter was
taken at the 1887 session of the as
sembly when a resolution was passed
authorizing the governor to appoint a
commission to study the whole mat
ter of local legislation and directing
the commission to report at the 1889
session. To date, however, Governor
Hoey has not named the members OF
this group and there is no indication
that he will be in any hurry to do SO.
The municipalities are interested
in the matter chiefly for the reason
that they they see a fine chance to
get more "home rule" in the event
local legislation is banned, because
the plan they have in mind would pro-
vide very broad general powers for
every municipality, and would enable
them to do almost anything in a gov
ernmental way, subject only to the
approval of voters of the town or city
involved.
