HIGHWAY DIVERSION
IS CALLED UNF AIR
Motorists Willing To Pay
For Roads But Not Other
Activities

Raleigh, Jan. 27-"A diversion of
highway funds is unfair to the motor
lists!
ut is estimated that 80 per cent of
the money collected by the Motor We
hicle Division of the Revenue Depart
ment of the State of North Carolina is
collected from motorists and consum-
ers of petroleum products who use
their automobiles and trucks in the
necessary conduct of their business
Until our tax levying bodies realize
that the automobile is no longer a lux
ury but necessity, the motorists will
continue to be penalized by paying
more than their just share of the tax
burdens of the State of North Caro-
lima" said r. G. Johnson, secretary of
the North Carolina Petroleum Indus
tries Committee
FINANCIAL statement of the State
Revenue Department shows that for
the twelve months period ending June
~, 1886, a total of $28, 743, 757.78 was
collected by the revenue division and
total of I27 ,287, 211.62 was collected
by the Motor Vehicle Division. The
revenue collected by the Motor We
h1cle Division was collected from the
following sources: License tags, title
ices, bus and franchise, gasoline tax
and inspection fees on gasoline. AS
citizens the motorists paid their pro-
portlonate part of the $28,743, 757.78
collected by the Revenue Division as
all other citizens paid. Then, as mot
orlsts, they paid $27, 287, 21163 addi-
tlonal as a special tax levied for the
specific purpose of financing our high
way a:r, system. lTR
The motorists of North Carolina
are perfectly willing to build and main
tain an adequate system of HIGHWAYS
without burdening ether taxpayers,
out they do feel that it is only fair
that all monies collected under the
Motor Vehicle Division should be kent
intact and expended only for the pur-
pose 1t is true that all citizens de-
rive benefit from our highway svs-
tenn regardless of whether thew are
consumers of gasoline or buyers of
automobile tags T.
is diversion of highway funds
talr to the motorists"

IT'S TRUE

In many parts of Poland, peasants
believe that lumbagO is cured if a
bear walks on the back of the patient
Trained bears are taken around the
countryside to administer such treat
mentS!
Half of the men who apply for en-
listment in the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police are citizens of the
United States.
Five times as many men as women
are Sufferers.
The bombardier beetle found under
stones in woods and fields shoots it's
prey with fluid which expels from
an apparatus like squirt gun!
The Skulls" and "boots" sticking
out of the ground at the site of the
famous Boot Hill "potter's field" that
tourists go to see in Dodge City Neb.,
are as phoney as "Hamlet's grave" in
Denmark. They're made of concrete.
None of the Dodge City pioneers who
died with their boots on are buried in
the graveyard now. They were moved
to another cemetery some years ago.
You've no doubt had playing cards
in your hands hundreds of times. Yet
the chances are 100 to 1 that you
can't tell, without getting out a deck
and looking at it, how the designs of
the king of diamonds differs with
that OF all the other kings.

PROBATION SYSTEM
is BEING PROPOSED
Additional Problem Seems Certain To
Be Tossed Into Lap of Busy
Legislature
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Nv T. G. RASK ERVTTT

y
Raleigh, Jan. 28.-North Cardinals
busy legislature will have another pro-
blem (novel so far as State procedure
is concerned) thrust upon it as the
result of adoption by the North Caro-
lima Conference for Social Service of
a resolution advocating a system of
adult probation il the courts of the
State.
Principles Of PROBATION will be in
cluded in a bill soon to be introduced
at the instance of the conferences
legislative committee
Text of the resolution was brief but
to the point. 1t reads:
Resolved that the North Carolina
Conference for Social Service hereby
approves the principles of adult pro-
baton in the respective courts of the
State and urges the legislature to con-
slider measures to make such proba-
ton service available"
It was adopted after the conference
had heard several officials familiar
with the probation system in effect
in Federal courts including M F..
Prescott chief probation officer for
the Federal courts in this State.
Mr.. Prescott pointed out that the
probation system has proved univer-
sally successful and that nobody
which has ever adopted the principle
has ever repealed any part of its laws
on the subject.
At present there is nothing resem-
bling probation in North Carolina
Jurisprudence except the somewhat
douStfully legal suspended sentence"
and there is no uniformity in this hap
hazard procedure which gives no SUI
pervision and amounts to nothing
more or less than a means of showing
leniency Mr.. Prescott pointed out.
He added that 80 per cent of the
probations he handles make good,
five percent are border line" and
five percent go back to prison.

TODAY,S YESTERDAYS

Jan. %, 1596-7Sir Francis Drake,
founder of British naval power and,
as such, father of the British empire,
died at Sc, of dysentery, off Forth
Bello, his body was committed to the
deep. He did not leave much, and
what there was relatives promptly dis
tributed.
Yet within recent years, thousands
of Americans hearing the name of
Drake have been duped into contribut-
ing millions of dollars to sharpers who
represented themselves as conduct
ing legal proceedings for the division
of the vast unclaimed estate of Sir
Francis Drake"
Drake is the hero of the tradition
al nursery song, II Saw a Ship a
Sailing"
Il saw a ship a-sailing, a-sailing on
the sea,
And oh! it was all laden with pretty
things for me.
There were comfitS in the cabin, and
apples in the hold,
The sails were made of silk, and the
masts were made of gold" etc.
Jan. %, 1833-Charles Gordon was
porn IN Scotland, deScendent of three
generations of generals. AS a child
he had an intense fear and hatred of
firearms, and as a boy he hid when
the guns were out for grouse or deer
He fought against entering the army,
as his family wished, and reluctantly
accepted commission in the engi-
neer corps, yet he grew up to become
one of Britains greatest generals,
hero of Chinese, Armenian and Pal
estine wars and builder of the Sudan
csc empire FOR Britain.
AS a soldier he would never bear
arms! He carried only a cane. A be-
lever in the settlement of difficulties
by education and diplomacy the only
time he ever used force of arms to
any extent he was failure in gain
ing his ends and lost his head-liter-
ally and not figuratively.

THE WORLD WAR-DAY-BY4DAY

20 Years Ago Today-The unitive
expedition sent into Mexico under
command of Maj. Gen. John J. Per-
shing was ordered to withdraw. Pan
cho Villa had not been punished, and
there was no prospect he would be.
In fact Gas Secretary of War Baker
admitted long afterward) the u. S.
government wouldn't have known
what to do with Villa if it had cap
tured him.
The expedition cost over 100000, 900
and did tremendous damage to Unit
ed States prestige in Latin-America.
Yet it was not a total loss. It did
give some officers who would be
needed soon, the first experience they
had ever had in commanding men
in the field and thereby caused lives
to be saved later.

ANSWERS

l. On February 4, 1902 Associate
Justice Alfred Moore, appointed from
North Carolina, wrote the comptroller
of the United States Treasury, that
he was troubled about his salary
voucher. He had not received any pay
for six weeks, he said.
2. Former governor and senator,
Cameron Morrison. Morrison's father
was republican, and in 1890 the two
were sent by that party as delegates
from Richmond county to the repub-
lican state convention in Raleigh. The
next year young Morrison announced
that he was casting his lot with the
democrats, in which party he soon
became an outstanding leader. A few
years later his father joined him.
8. A German trapper named Hans
Wagner. The cabin was built some
time prior to the year 1853, as it was
occupied in November of that year by
the first party of Moravian settlers
arrive in Wachovia. This party ar
rived on Saturay, and the next day
held the first Moravian Love Feast
ever held in North Carolina.
4. The location of homes of certain
OAAiNAetAo dlOIlS JIlIS IOuIC. OI0 WIlL6I7

the home of Governor Morehead, had
passed by Hillsboro, the home of Sec

terminated in the midst of the descen-
dants of the signors of the Mecklen-
burg Declaration of Independence, it
could not have come into existence

D. Two hundred years ago more
than one half of the cases were con-
nected with violation of livestock
laws. Today approximately one half
are direct violations of the prohibition
laws.
3. Colonel L. l.. Polk, editor of the
progressive Farmer and organizer of
the Farmers Alliance, was the ac-
knowledged head of the Peoples or
Popullst Party. On his death in 1892
Butler succeeded him as leader of the

School Amendment
No. Is
Citizens Committee on School
Amendment No. 13
Tom Buxton

Determined to bring to Minneapolis
voters attention the Board of Edu-
cations pressing financial crisis, the
Citizens Committee on School
Amendment No. 13 has launched a
city-wide campaign of public informa-
ton.
Volunteer workers, serving without
pay and in the interests of the chill
dren and their adequate education,
are presenting facts on the schools
inadequate finances and consequent
shortage of services.
The essential issue the committee
seeks to bring home to parents and
other friends of the schools is that
Minneapolis school tax revenues have
decreased more than 20 per cent
in the past six years, with re-
sulting enforced curtailment of money
spent for maintenance of public
school education in the city.
Adoption of the proposed School
Amendment No. 13 at the June IA
city election is being urged on the
basis that it will help provide for
adequate maintenance of buildings
and equipment, eliminate present
serious shortage in textbooks, refer
ence books and greatly needed visual
education equipment, and permit the
Board of Education to halt the con-
tinuous pay cuts enforced on board
employees for the past five years.
Board of Education members, who
proposed the amendment in the in
terest of the public schools, receive
no salary or other remuneration for
their services.
The Citizens Committee for School
Amendment No. Is is headed by DR..
E. T. w. Boquist as general chairman.
He is a former commander of the
Fifth Minnesota district of the Amerl-
can Legion. For two years, he was
chairman of the Legion districts edu-
cation committee and he has been a
member of the Citizens Committee on
Public School Finance since its or
ganzation four years ago.
Others on the executive committee
of the Citizens Committee on School
Twin-City herald. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1927-1940, 1937-06-05

Amendment No. 13 are Vernon E.
MikElelson, president of the Fidelity
State Bank, who is finance chairman
and treasurer; A H. Urtubees, presi-
dent of the Minneapolis Central La
Dor Union; Mrs. H. K. Painter, presi-
dent of the Minneapolis Council of
Parent-Teacher Associations, who is
speakers chairman, Lynn Thompson,
Board of Education representative;
Superintendent Carroll R. Reed; A.
E. MacQuarrie, contact committee
chairman, and Tom Buxton, secre
tary.
With the Citizens committee cam
paign just getting under way, several
organizations have indorsed the pro-
posed School Amendment No. Is.
These include the influential Henepin
County Fermentation Association;
the Civil Service Association; the
Marhall High School Parent-Teacher
Association; Roosevelt district organ
ization of parent-teacher associations;
the Howe, Northrop, Cooper and
Holmes parent-teacher associations
and various other organizations.
The amendment also has been in
dorsed by Holy Trinity English Luth-
eran church and many prominent in
dividuals.
The proposed School Amendment
! No. 13 would authorize the Board Of
Education to levy up to five mills
above the present legal maximum of
% mills for school taxes. At present,
the owner of a $4,000 market value
home pays about $3.50 per month for
school taxes. If he lives in his own
house, the proposed maximum in
crease would be about As cents per
month; if a renter is in the house,
the increase would be about IS cents
per month.
