SCHOOL TAX LEVY

Continued from mage one)
period they directed a door-to-
door canvass for registrants in the
belief that hundreds of residents
would be counted against the
proposal merely by staying away
from the polls. After the cam
paign had started quietly with in
dications that the registration
might not exceed 1000, this ac-
tivity by opponents aroused the
school forces and they have since
canvassed the registration list, in
terviewed almost all of the regis
trants personally and are pre-
pared to get out vote which they
say will be sufficiently large to
give authority to the city school
board, the board of county COM
missioners and the state school
commission to set up a supplement
tary budget adequate to provide
for an extra month of school, re-
lieve classroom congestion and
otherwise meet the requirements
of accredited schools as specified
by the Southern Association of
Secondary Schools and Colleges:
The school board, which would
have authority to recommend
only, has stated publicly through
it's chairman, R. P. Freeze, that a
levy of 10 to II cents would en-
able them to meet these require
ments under present conditions.

Editor, The TImCS-NcwS:
With the utmost Difference to
Capt. J. W. Bailey's opinion as
expressed in the columns of your
paper and with particular refer
ence to his comment on the bond
situation Us il affects the school
election tomorrow, it might be
well to consider that the city COM
missionerS of HcnderSOnville have
been able finally TO arrive at an
adjustment and debt settlement.
II was and is my hope that Hen
Jacksonville is in a position to go
forward with it's development
without being longer COMPOUNDED
bv the default in its Indebtedness.
am not familiar with the de-
tails of the settlement but 1t is a
matter of common knowledge that
the city commissioners themselves
are highly pleased with this ac-
compliShmcnt and as to that | am
willing TO be guided by their judg-
ment Just as | am willing to be
guided by the judgment OF the
school board in matters under
their jurisdiction.
The Supreme Court of North
Carolina has recently decided IN
a similar case School District VS.,
Alamance County, 2ll \. c. 2l3
decided Feb. "a. 1880 that the
payment OF bonds for the con-
struction of school buildings should
be paid by the counties upon a
showing that such buildings were
reasonably necessary to provide
the constitutional school term as
provided by Article IN of the con-
stitution of North Carolina. | am
informed that nothing could be
done and nothing can be done
looking to settlement of the
bonds issued for the construction
of the school building in Hender-
scnvillc to which Capt. Bailey re-
fcrrcd in his letter until the court
determined the agency liable Tor
the payment.
It is always a simple matter for
those who are not charged with
the responsibility of operating a
public agency to criticize those to
whom has been delegated this au-
thority and responsibility and in
this particular case where thc
school board, composed of tax
payers themselves, have made an
exhaustive study of the needs OF
the school, it seems that a great
deal more significance should be
attached to their opinion than to
the opinion of a group of citizens,
whose high standing in this com
munity is freely conceded but
whose opinion, by their own state
ment. is based solely on the read
ing of one issue of your estimable
paper in 1881. A lot of water has
run under the bridge since 1881.
Very truly yours,
.... o. B. CROWELL.

many before; it will happen again,
and who can tell but what some,
having crossed the threshold Of
this sanctuary, thoughtlcssly, may
go away transformed by 4 great
cleansing
The subject at the evening ser
vice was: "Thc Road That Lies
Ahead" Rev. Alexander said IN
part:
what may we expect in the
future as individuals, as nation,
as civilization. as Il church!
Paul points to that far-off time
when we shall have become per-
feet individuals in a perfect so
ciety. and that is the future to-
ward which we are looking as we
travel the road that lies ahead.
Before we ever begin to APP
proximatc that high ideal we must
take account of three things. I'M
portant. significant things that
seem 10 be forgotten today. The
first is sin. We must have a real
heart searching of ourselves and
examination of our society Of
which we are a part. Search me
o God and know my heart: Try
me and know my thoughts: And
see if there be any wicked way IN
me. and lead me in the way ever
lasting ,
Second, personal responsibility
to God. We must live as under
the great taSkmastcr'S eye, know
that the eye of God is upon us
and follows us through all the
events of our daily lives. We talk
about a revival and reform. The
only reforms that is worthwhile
lies in the individual heart, work
ing outward. Here is a remedy
better than any of the restraints
of man. Ninc-tenthS of the evils
from which we suffer are beyond
the reach of statutory law, but
they are all susceptible to amend
mcnt by conscience through the
mercy of God. The signs of a
moral breakdown today are due
to the loss of individual response
bilitv to God.

i'm said city or school district, the
interest of the Southern Railway
did not enter my mind. However,
since this question has been ralS-
cd it may be interesting TO some
of our people to know that out OF
the annual taxes paid by the
Southern Railway system approx
imatelv 100000 of il goes TO
public education and, as | see II.
the greatest hope it can have OF
recovering ut least portion OF
this tremendous outlay lies in the
fact that we believe the wealth OF
a community, a state or nation Is
in men and women. And, as our
young men and women are deHeL-,
oped physically, mentally ana
spiritually. and enter the fields OF
business, politics and society; /
feel that they will remember their
greatest benefactor and see to 1t
that the railroads are given at
least an equal opportunity to live
and prosper along with other good
citizens.
Now, as much as we believe in
public education, | think its scope
should be limited to reasonable
expense and that eight months OF
school is all that the public should
be asked to pay for.

PAPER OUTPUT.
FRO N SOUTH'S
Pine TO GROW
Conclusive Tests Show
Trees UseabIe for all
Grade of Paper

ATLANTA, April 3. (UP). -
The South apparently is on the
tn, cshold of greater industrial
and agricultural! advancement due
to conclusive tests that slash and
other pine will make newsprint
and paper of I'll grades.
4 dozen paper manufacturing
plants aheady are producing craft
Eapcr--low grades used for sacks,
wrapping, and similar purposes
and several more are contcn-
plated.
And announcement Of 4 $1,000
600 newsprint manufacturing
plant in East Texas marks the be-
ginning OF that industry in the
south. Plans are being fOrmulat-
ed for at least one additional
plant east of the Mississippi river,
the United Press learned.
The eleven major pulp and pa
per plants established in the
south during the past three years
now arc producing most of the
craft paper used in the United
States. The total investments in
these new plants is more than
$50, 100000.
The United States last year I'M
ported more than 1922, 100000
worth of pulp and papcr, while II
produced iU.506,1G5 tons. valued
at S65G.ll5,565, according to the
Manufacturers Record, published
at Baltimore.
OF this total, 1.22l,S7l tons
were ncwSprint, valued at Sl?,-
I96.53S.
The tremendous advance in the
Dapcr industry for the south FOL
lowed tests made by DR.. Charles
II. Hcrty. Georgia chemist, which
showed southern pine not only
good for ncwsprint but also for
any grade paper.
The industry received further
impetus by DR.. Hcrty's assertions
that slash pine sufficient for pa
pcrmaking can be grown in I to
IL wears, as compared to 10 to 90
years required in Canada and
Northern United States where the
paper industry heretofore has been
conferred.
This quick growth tends TO elm
mate fears that development of
the industry in the south would
soon consume all available pine.
Latcstestimates show that the
south can produce 5O,OOO,OOO
cords of pulpwood yearly, where
as the present consumption Is
only about 100000.
Nevertheless, a sound reIorcS,
tatiOn policy must be followed
with development Of the industry
Dr.. Hcrty and manufacturers
agree. ,r.,
James G.. Stahlman, publisher
of the Nashville, Tenn, Banner,
and leader in establishment of the
ncwsprint industry in the south,
said the new industry must plan
for the future and use adequate
conservation methods.
1--WE cannot affor dto dcnude
the 2OO,O00,00O acres of pine
lands which are standing, but we
must engage in a definite pro-
gram of rcforcStatiOn, protection

Stahlman said.
The availability Of timber and
power arc the chief assets in de-
velopmcnt Of the paper industry,

Other favorable factors include
nearncss to southern markets,
cheaper labor in some instances,
and more favorable climatic con-
ditions.
DR.. Hcrty estimates that the
south will be able to make paper
mt a cost of around S27 per ton
rs compared to $47 in the now
principal producing areas.

developed along with the paper

Kelley Credits Yale

tSneciaI to The Democratl

Special to The DemOcrat)
 Larry Kelley, the Yale boy who insists on putting that extra "e" into his name is in the national spotlight once more and this time, 1t is not because of his touchdown activities. For Wise-cracking Larry's Yale days are behind him and he has turned his thoughts towards the more serious things in life. But, in spite of everything, Larry has been thrown across the headlines and merely because he has turned auth or!
 For in this weeks issue of the Saturday Evening Post, the Yale MT Kelley contributes his autobiography for the ediflcation of the football fans of the country under the title of Everybody There Saw Kelley. It is two-part article and Kelley with the aid of George Trevor, the countrys No. football expert, has knocked out, 8 real touchdown story. As a matter of fact, the Kelley-Trevor combine is as deadly with the typewriter as was the passing combination of Frank-to- Kelley on the gridiron for dear Old Ell, last fall.
 Football R. o.
 "EVerybody There Saw Kelley" is @ real smash-hit and 1t is a na- tural when 1t comes to the pay-off window. The story opens with a short history of Kelley's boyhood days-the days when he was too frail to play football and he relates how he learned then that pass catching was the stuff that got ones name in the headlines. Larry ad- mits that he set out to be spec ialist as he was looking for the glory and he insists that all kinds are grandstand players at heart. There fore, being human, he himself was a grandstander.
 The Saturday Evening Post story by Larry Kelley goes in for plenty of debunking and 1t is to the great An-American's credit that he docs all the debunking when 1t comes to the matter of putting his readers, straight on things relating to Kel- ley. In the first place, Larry admits that in going to Yale, he was lucky for there, according to his own words, he met up with a couple of fellows who could really hang the ball out on a limb for him. The fel- lows were Jerry Roscoe and Clint Frank.
 Hurt Once
 Kelley was often referred to as Lucky Larry. It was said that he never once suffered an injury in a football game-that he didn't have to take time out for any kind oi hurt, small or serious. Larry IT. his Post article, says that this wa! not SO far for he was injured In { game with Princeton as @ fresh man.
 Larry gives credit to Hester Bar res, now on the N. Y. U. Coaching staff for teaching him lot abou end play and he also gives Greasy Neale, his due as a coach. AS 6 matter of fact, the article, Every body There Saw Kelley" Is a typi. cal Yale story and 1t should be ot interest to all Waterburians whc are in the habit of sitting In at games at the bowl.
