VANCE COUNTY. YET
WITHOUT CORONER
A. P. Paschall Duly Elected
But Has Not Posted
Bond or Taken Oath

Vance county appeared today to he
without a coroner and to have been
without one since early in December
when all county officers chosen dur
ing the November general election
were to take their oaths.
A. P. Paschall was elected coroner
in November, after winning the Dem
ocratic nomination the run-off pri-
mary last July 4, but as far as was
learned today, he has never qualified
for the post
County Attorney B. H. Perry was
questioned concerning the matter, and
he stated that he had never approved
a bond for Mr.. PaschaH, and that one
had not been presented him for his
approval. The coroner must furnish
a bond, and this must be passed on
by the board of County Commission
ers The commissioners usually refer
bonds to Mr.. Ferry.
Chairman S. M. Watkins, of the
board, stated that as far as he knew

Henderson daily dispatch. (Henderson, N.C.) 1914-1995, 1937-01-26

And the response that has come has
been almost entirely spontaneous Inc
double quota was more than realized
even before the local campaign could
be organized and gotten under way.
Indeed, no active canvass has been at
all. The magnitude and the serious
ness of 100000 persons homeless IN
what has been described as the
greatest flood disaster in American
history so impressed itself upon the
people generally that they have given
out of a heartfelt desire to render
some service, however small.
Mrs. Henry t. Morris, chairman of
the Henderson chapter of the Red
Cross, was asked III telegram from
Admiral Cary T. Grayson, in Wash
ington chairman of the national Red
Cross, for quota of $500. Today
another telegram came asking for
double that amount, or $500. The
doubled quota was over-subscribed
simultaneously with receipt of the
telegram asking for the increased con-
tribution.
Mrs. Morris said she had never seen
people so willing to help in real way.
She had been literally swamped with
cash donations, she said.
The same was virtually true as to
Roy O. Rodwell, treasurer of the local
chapter At the Daily Dispatch, which
is also serving as a receiving station
for donations, there was a stream of
contributions during the morning and
on into the afternoon. All funds re-
ceived were turned into the proper
channels
Mrs. Morris said that those desir-
ing to give after office hours of those
named could leave their contributions
at Woolard's drug store. Coin boxes
have been placed in several other
drug stores also for the convenience
of those desiring t. help.
The local CHAIRMAN made it plain
that the magnitude Of the disaster
was growing loLrly. and that the
fat that the Quota had been over
subscribed did not mean that addi
tiCnai funds we're not needed. 1t is
possible that still further call may
come from Fed Cross headquarter:
IN WASHINGTON.
The newest appeal from Admira
Grayscn came to Mrs. Morris today
as follows
Because relief needs in floodet
areas of Ohio and Mississippi valleys
increasing every hour as continued
rains send rivers to highest level
in history, with more than four hun
dred thousand persons driven from
homes, urge you double your relic
fund quota and go as far beyond tn
doubled figure as possible. We ar
contributing million dollars from ma
tional funds. Three hundred Re-
Gross relief workers now in disaste
areas giving inlmc Late emergnnc,
relief to flood refugees. Three hun
drcd fifty Red Gross nurses in fiel

demic. Food, clothing, bedding, mod
cal supplies being rushed by trair

ers, Judge Walter j. Casey on Sat
urday fined James A. Brown, col
ored hacker, $155 or a jail term of
145 days on four specific traffic
violations reported on New Year
Eve.
Judge Casey, presiding jurist in
the traffic division of Police Court,
in sentencing Brown said:
1--WE don't want you or any
other driver like you operating
on the District Of Columbia
highways"
The sentence. one Of the heavi-
est collectively imposed, was made
after Policeman H. c. Wright,
attached to No. 10 Precinct, re-
ported the tale of consecutive
violation that moved the court.
According to Wright, Brown was

Brown cursed and struck him on
the jaw before leaving his position
and then sped through the stop
sign at the intersection of Eigh-
teenth and Euclid Streets North
west, ran through a red light at
Sixteenth and Euclid Streets
Northwest, and then continued on
his way, driving mostly on the
wrong side of the street at an esti-
mated speed Of SO miles an hour.
In the meantime the officer
Communicated another cab and

into Browns rear tire which didn't
stop the fugitive. Wright finally

J. Lee Hotel, assistant chief Of
the receiving and computing sec
ton of General Accounting Of
fees records division, enjoys the
reputation of being one of the
hardest working supervisors in
the Government service.
According to those who work
with him, he's on the job early
and stays late, never bothering to
quit just because the bell rings at
4:30. His principal ambition is
more success in a Federal career
that has stretched 16 years already
all of them filled with achieve
ment.
Mr.. Hotel is popular with those
who work under him because he
tolls harder than any of them,
and they say they don't mind
working for a chief like that.
Consequently, his units record for
efficiency is invariably with the
leaders.
A Middleton, Va, man, who was
educated at Middleton H h
School and Roanoke College, Hot
tel came to Washington 16 years
ago to "break in" with the Coast
Guard service of the Treasury
Department. Later he shifted to
the Bureau of Prohibition but in
1928 was assigned to General Ac-
counting office and has been there
since.
His initial ambition was to be-
come a professional baseball
player. Powerfully built, his skill
on the diamond was above aver
age. Connie Hotel, aged II,
Bobby Lee, 8, Geraldine, 6, and
Jimmy, 4, are a quartet of diminu-
tive reasons, however, that have
made him glad he chose a more
stable career with Uncle Sam.
For recreation Hotel uses the
hefty arm which formerly snap
ped a baseball from base to base
for bowling. and rolls regularly
with office mates at Convention
Hall. Otherwise he enjoys quiet
game of bridge or a meeting of
the Odd Fellows, in which he is
popular member. At one time
he was floor manager for the
L'Aiglon and Swanee Bathrooms.
Lyle Pick" Pickering and
pretty Lucille Wooten are two
GAO. workers employed under
Hotel who have absorbed his
passion for efficient work and
plenty of it.
Mr.. Pickering, who resides at
1907 P Street N. W., is from
Weed, Calf, and boarded an
Eastbound express 18 months ago
to accept a call from GAO. to
come to work in a general cleri-
cal capacity. Like his boss, he
enjoys bowling and goes in for
it more seriously, being mem
ber of the big GAO. Bowling
League. During the summer, how
ever. he is usually found on one
