lines being built and with the results
heing obtained by the rural subscrib-
ers," Chairman Bagley said. For
while all of the members of the COM
mission are familiar with what has
been done out in the field and have
seen some of the lines and homes,
most of us have not seen enough of
the actual work done in the field first
hand.
'In the course of this survey trip
we will see lines built by municipali-
ties. by county cooperatives financed
by the LEA in Washington, by in
dependent cooperatives and by the
private lower companies. We will al
so have an opportunity to talk with
the farmers and their wives who are
now using e!ec;ilcity from these rural
lines. see their homes and get a first
hand report or whether they are sat
isfied, what complaints they hay have
what more they would like to have
1t will also give us an opportunity to
compare the different types of lines
and installa; ions. We believe it will be
very beneficial

HOODS FOES FAIL

Bills Altering Bank Department So
AS To Nullify 1t All Are

Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Raleigh, March 25.-Opponents of
Quincy p. Hood, State communications
err of banks, failed in their efforts to
pry him loose from his job just as
they did two years ago, but they
never let up in their fight on the man
who has the almost unanimous sup
port Of the States banks and who is
given much credit for the manner in
which most of North Cardinals clos
ed banks have been able to reopen or
pay off to large extent.
Not satisfied with crushing defeat
in committee early in the session, hos
tile lawmakers made last-minute
effort to "get" Mr.. Hood with bills
abolishing his department or trans
ferring it's functions to some other
State agency to such an extent that
he would be left with no authority
over anything.
Among the banks and bankers
there is a widespread belief that every
one of these attempts against the com
missioner are inspired by the Branch
Banking Company, with head offices
at Wilson.
At a hearing before the House
Banks and Banking Committee, rep
resentatives of almost every bank in
the State protested against any chan
ge in the present banking set-up of
the State and re-affirmed their faith
in the honesty and ability of MIR.

been heard, the committee unani-
mously voted down both bills.
The last minute bills were quickly
and overwhe lmingly beaten.

ADVERTISING PLAN
RECEIVES APPROVAL
Legislature Votes $3.50, 900;
Also To Participate In
Worlds Fair

Raleigh, March 25.-(AP)-A sys
tematic advertising program fol-
North Carolina and participation in
the 1899 New York Worlds Fair won
appI oval f. ON the General Assembly
row ending its session.
Governor Hoey advocated both
hills. The advertising measure carried
an appropriation of $25O,OOO and the
fair hill pro vIded no funds after $685.
O0o, if needed for a North Carolina
building, had been proposed.
Various and sundry conservation
and development measures received
consideration and many became law
including che to permit sale of min
erals found in State waters.
The conservation department was
authorized to acquire lands for Nor
ROW Mountain State Park in Stanly
county and to buy lands, if needed
adjacent to Federal parks and land
projects in the State. The Federal
government was given rights to buy
more lands for the Great Smoky
Mountains National Park and was
coded State highway in the park.
A measure to protect the purity
of streams was killed in the Senate
but game, fishing and forest fire pre-
vention laws were strengthened by
amending bills. A patrol boat for com
mercial fisheries was approved; a re-
solution asked President Roosevelt tC
expedite completion of the scenic
parkway and another named com
mission to aid in the Virginia Dare
celebration; while measures to en-
courage oyster and clam growing re
ceived favor.

Commissioner Fletcher said that he
believed passage of the measure would
reduce accidents to a minimum if not
eliminate them entirely.
The maximum hours law does not
apply to agricultural or domestic en-
ployes. Whether the Federal law
would have was debated.
The State law, however, does not
apply to a business with less than
eight employees.
Commissioner Fletcher asserted it
would not apply to concerns having
number of units in the State but a.
personnel of less than eight in one
location.
Workers in certain classes of in
duStry such as laundries also were ex-
cluded from the act. Laundrymen ar
gued their work was seasonal and
that they were not opposed to the 55-

their female employees be allowed to

Certain types Of statesmen. parti-

also were exempted.
At hearings on the measure, it was
declared that women in some indus

men more than 70 even though such
was against the law. Working condi-
tons in North Carolina were among
the lowest standing in the nation for
both men and women, it was averred.

STRONGEST
SOUNDLY DEFEATED
Slot Machine Crowd Never Was Able
To Defeat or Unteeth Flana-
gan Measure

Tn the Sir Walter Hotel
Raleigh, March 25.-Certainly the
most persistent, and perhaps the most
powerful, lobby in attendance at the
legislature met complete defeat with
the repulse Of every effort to weaken
or nullify the Flanagan anti-slot ma
chine bill passed about a week before
sine die adjournment.
No stonew as left unturned by the
slot lobbyists. Two last-minute bills
were introduced in the hope that they
might be passed and thereby the sit
uation might be so muddled as to pre-
vent law enforcement. Every member
of the Senate and every member of
the House was subjected to an intense
barrage of persuasion and appeal
Senator Ed Flanagan, of Green
vile, who authored the bill which it
is hoped will effectively outlaw the
"one-armed bandits in North Caro-
lima after June 80, reported he has
reason to believe he was Swallowed
constantly from the minute he intro
duced his bill in the Senate. The Pitt
law maker also expressed the opinion
that the telephone line to his room
was tapped.
He said he was unable to prove
that either of these things was done
Ky the slot-machine lobby, but he free
ly expressed that opinion.
On the very last day of the session,
a bill was introduced and actually
passed by the Senate, which it's OPP
ponents say, would have made inef-
fective the drastic Flanagan act. In
debate it was stated that three slot
machine lobbyists were even then
standing in the alcove back of the
speakers desk. To the dying moment

ONCE UPON AUGUST 1S

AS we suggested here last week, it
is not accurate to describe Virginia
Dare, who was born $50 years ago to-
dav in the first English settlement IN
America, on Roanoke Island, North
Carolina, as the first white child born
in this country.
Even if North Carolinians are un-
willing to accept the priority of the
Viking in American exploration, they
must take into account the illegltl-
mate child born to Marguerite Rober-
val, niece of Sieur de Roberval, first
viceroy of Canada.
Marguerite loved chevalier in the
viceroys encourage not wisely but too
we'll. When, while still on the ship
taking him to his domain, the Sieur
learned of the consequences of the af-
fair, he sternly set his niece ashore
on an island near Newfoundland with
an old Norman nurse and a small sup
ply of food and weapons. AS the ship
sailed away, the captive lover burst
his bonds, leaped into the sea and
swan 70 her.
The child, the nurse and the father
succumbed to hardships. Marguerite
survived to be rescued by ship two
years later, and went back to France

The legitimacy of Virginia Dare is

that Eleanor White was the mistress

of Elizabeth. The jealous queen is
supposed to have contrived to marry
off Eleanor to one Annahias Dare.
and then shipped off Eleanor's father
John, as governor of the new settle

or with him. Scandalfnongers of the
time said the daughter Eleanor bore
