RACE BRINGS
COIN TO n. {.
State Reaps Two Millions
a Year From Junk
Metal

WILSON, March 20. up
The boom ~ steel production and
tho world armament race have
built Che sale Of junk and scrap
metal into a $2,000,OOO industry
Cor North Carolina.
Dealers estimate the sale OF
iunk metal will reach that figaro
This wear if the present demand Is
maintained and will go even high
.er il increases continue.
Piled high in warehouses and on
docks of Alorchcad City today, for
example, is 10000 tons OF scrap
metal awaiting the first ship to
leave the new port terminal there
In Other ports of the state ship
ments already are moving out
daily to Japan and other foreign
nations.
Some of the junk is shipped to
POINTS in this country for use, but
the freight diffcrcntial sends most
of it to japan. 1t costs So a ton
to ship the Junk to Pittsburgh by
rail and SO to send it to Japan by
boat.
In all parts of the state, from
Raleigh. the capital. to the tiny
coastal village of Edcnton, junk
dealers are carrying on one OF the
most thriving businesses in the
state in buying WORKOUT and dis
carded automobiles, farm machin-
erv and anything else that will
Weld metal and selling it TO steel
manufacturers.
Definite figures on the blossom
ING industry are hard to obtain.
but reliable estimates say 5000
OcO tons of junk have left North
Carolina since last November to
be turned into steel that is used
in the manufacture of iron grid
ers. rivcts. bullets, guns, tanks
and shrapnel. =,
Approximately 400 junk deal
prs in the state are working for
their share of the profits of the
industry, in contrast to 90 or 60
who were active in the business a
few years ago.
Most Eastern North Carolina
dealers sell their metal direct to
Lmia Brothers of New York and
Philadelphia, who in turn whole
sale it to manufacturers all over
the world. A good deal of the
metal in this state, also, is sold to
the GOldSboro Iron and Metal
Works.
Many dealers insist that the
building boo moi this country is
the primary factor in the sharp in
crease in. the junk business. But
others, more realistic perhaps,
point out that similar, though
not so large increase, has followed
the outbreak of every major war
of the present century.
Louis Arner, Wilson's oldest
Junk dealer, said that the squirt of
the World war was fully matched
by the squirt which followed the
outbreak of the Ethiopian con-
flict. And when the Spanish rev.
olution fiared into the open, the
resulting civil war again doomed
business for the junk dealers.
"The automobile, too, has some
thing to do with it," Arner said.
During the World war, there
weren't nearly so many castoff
automobiles as there are now, and
there wasn't so much cast-off
farm machinery. So business
wasn't as good then as it is now.
We simply couldn't meet the de-
mand."
Many dealers pay as high as %
to 60 cents hundred pounds for
junk, but the average price is
about 35 cents a hundred pounds

BY LEWIS LARKlN
United Press Staff Correspondent

TOPEKA, Kas.. March 20. -
(UP).-Kansas schools are facing
financial difficulties as a result of
the leash basis" law which keeps
the states budget balanced.
Schools in Galena, in South
western Kansas, have been forced
to close because there was no
money to meet salaries and eX-
pCnses.
The "cash basis" law still is re-
garded by governmental experts
as q sound contribution to county
and state government and is being
copied by other states, BIZ, its
rigid application in Kansas has
placed q number of schools in fl
nancial distress. The law says
specifically that no unit of the
county or municipal government
shall spend more than has been
appropriated the previous fiscal
year. It was designed TO prevent
the issuing of "no fund" war
rants. When Alfred NJ. Landon
as governor obtained enactment
of this law there was ST. 100000
outstanding in mo fund.- war
rants in the state. Now, all that
has been removed.
However, several school districts
have interpreted the law literally
and thus find themselves in finan-

THROUGHOUT his 80 years,
Emmanuel Kant, great Ger
man metaphysician, never VEN
tured farther than 60 miles from
his native home, Koenigsberg. Yet
his ideas had a profound infiu-
ence on the people of the world.
Born in 1924, Kant studied and
then taught at the University of
koenigsberg. Mathematics, the
ologyr land science were his sub
iects, and he became the worlds
leading exponent Of new
philosophy, one which based its
conception of knowledge on two
important factors-the factual
and the mental. He wrote many
books, enlarging upon this theory
Of a critical philosophy, and some
today are classics in that science.
He remained a bachelor, clois-
tered within his native city.
During the American and French
revolutions, he declared his SYM
pathy for the cause Of liberty, and
all through his life he affirmed his
belief in human progress. He re-

cial distress.
TWO LAWS CONFLICT

There are two laws on the
statute books" said W. T. Mark
ham, state superintendent OF edu-
cation, (Which have placed Off
Gals of school districts in a diff
cult position. One law says that
every school district shall main
tain eight months Of school. The
other-the cash basis law-says
the school district, as well as 9TH
CT spending units, shall not spend
more than has been appropriated
the previous year.
The tax limitation law of Kan
sas prevented many school dis
tricts from levying sufficient
taxes to support the schools for
an cight-month term. Thus, many
are finding their funds gone,
while officials arc faced with the
Job of obeying the eight-month
school law.
"Therc are GO one-teacher
school districts now out OF funds"
Markham reported, "and there arc
9S which do not have sufficient
funds to run the remainder of the
year. This means that approx
matcly 1900 pupils in the one
teacher school districts will have
their education cWtailod this year
because Of low OF insufficient
funds" .. N..
UNPAID TEACHERS
STILL WORK
Markham also reported that IS
school teachers in the one-teacher
districts are continuing to teach
without receiving their salary. In
cities and towns. there are %
schools with 2S5 teachers and
SG72 pupils that have insufficient
funds.
Thus because Of conflict be-
tween two important state laws,
1S7 Kansas schools will be unable
to finish the year, 1888 teachers
will not receive their salaries UNI
til summer or fall, and l0,472
elementary and high school pupils
will have their education curtailcd
this year.
"Thcrc are still lmore schools
now operating without obeying
the cash basis law" Markham
said. "Many are continuing to
operate and are putting out no.
fund warrants in anticipation of
larger tax levies. The officials
simply are not paying any attcn-
ton to the cash basis law because
after all no one will prosecute
them for keeping schools open.
DISOBEY ONE OF TWO LAWS
Gwen if they do close the
schools they run the chance of
prosecution because they do not
keep them open eight months
every year. Many have decided
the lesser of the two evils is to
disobey the cash basis law and
keep the schools OPEN"
In Galena, two weeks ago when
funds were exhausted, more than
1000 students picketed the entire
town, including the homes of
members of the board of educa-
ton, mayor and other city Of
ficials.
However, q bill in the legisla-
ture would remedy the situation.
