ureS
Some think that the General Assem-
bly, is deliberately maneuvering and
it's members are even openly trad
ing" with the members from the east
ern counties having county liquor
stores, or those who want the county
liquor control system continued, in an
effort to get them in a position where
they will almost be compelled to COM
promise and accept a liquor control
bill calling for both State and county
control and participation in profits.
Most observers are inclined to be-
l-eve that there is very little deliber-
ate trading" going on and that many
of these developments have come
about without any thought of the Ii
quor bill whatever. Instead, they be-
lieve that circumstances and facts
are gradually bringing about develop
ments which are going to materially
liquor control law very similar to
the law recommended by the State
Comm. SSion.
Very few believe there was any
thought of the liquor situation in the
Intangibles tax plan finally worked
out by the finance committee But it
is generally agreed that if the State
consents to give back so per cent of
the proceeds from this tax to the coun
ties, that the II eastern counties with
liquor stores are going to be much
more willing to give up 20 per cent
of their liquor profits to the State.
1t is also agreed that the defeat of
he reapportionment bill with the help
of Piedmont and western votes, has
made many of the eastern members
feel better and more likely to agree
70 a compromise on liquor control
At any rate, the outlook is brighter.

studiously avoided any mention of

engaged, and confined himself to
talk of a general nature.

he had insisted on waiting upon

Hilda knew Colindale only too
well. A flash of intuition came to
her with crushing force. She drew
her hand away and stood up,
facing the man.

Colindale laid himself out to be

and discussed the future when this
dark cloud should have passed
away. He exercised the same fas-
cination over her weak mind as he
had done so fatally in the past,
and she almost persuaded herself
that he was the strong, clean man
who had only erred through love
of her, something that woman will
ALWAYS condone.
