HE ATE ALL-BRAN
 AND IMPROVED
 WONDERFULLY

Read this voluntary letter: "In regard to your ALL-BRAN, it is marked on the package best as a cereal, best for cooking, and, as far as I am concerned, you might add best for heoIth. Since I have begun to eat it, I have improved wonder fully. ."-Mr. H. E. Poole, 312 w. Franklin Street, Jackson, Mich.
 ALL-BRAN corrects common con- stipation, due to meals low in "bulk." Within the body, it absorbs water and forms soft mass, gently sponging out the system.
 ALL-BRAN also supplies vitamin B to tone up the intestines, and iron for the blood. Isn't this food better than taking weakening pills and drugs?
 Eat two tablespoonfuls daily, either as a cereal with milk or cream, or in recipes. In chronic cases, with each meal. Sold by all grocers. Made and guaranteed by Kellogg in Battle Creek.

WHAT
Is
TAKING
PLACE
nv

There are many reasons for the
belief that the Congressional "loe
jam which has held up much impor-
tant legislation, is about to be broken
Hearings on the Presidents court
plan have been completed. The chief
| executives budget message has clari-
fled the situation with reference to
Federal expenditures. 1t is clear that
enlarged relief expenditures and new
projects cannot be undertaken with
out new taxes. And there seems to be
no sentiment in Congress favorable to
new taxes.
AS a result, leaders are endeavor-
ing to cut appropriations and to hold
relief expenditures down to the billion
and half recommended by the Pre-
sident. If possible, that amount will
even be reduced Should these moves
he successful, excise taxes scheduled
to expire in June and July will be re-
enacted, perhaps for another year,
and that will be the extent of tax leg
islaticn during the first session of the
present Congress.
However, should pressure from va
Illus congressional blocs result in
new and larger expenditures than are
provided in the budget, it may mean
tax revision. before Congress adjourns
And tax revision during the summer
onthsf in Washington is slow and
difficult undertaking. Every one
hopes that it can be avoided
In the final analysis, the course of
the Congress will be governed largely
by the desires Of our people. If they
want new expenditures, they must be
prepared to foot the bills If they want
reduced expenditures, they should
make their wishes known. These state
ments cannot be repeated too often.
They are of utmost Importance to
our people.
Nevertheless, we have timely warn
ing that the day is fast approaching
when our system of producing rev.
enue must be overhauled. Loopholes
must he closed and inequities remov-
ed. Our tax bases must be broadened.
Expediency in levying taxes must give
way to equity. We should consider the
effect of certain forms of taxes on
business and, in turn, on labor and
on the farmer. Much of the present
conditions, and those we have gone
LuIOuSn, I1dy U0 attributed W Tile way
in which we have pyramided taxes,
Federal, State and local, without re-
gard for their effect.
Therefore, we may anticipate that
tax revision in 1938-if necessity does
not force it earlier-will be approach
ed on a sound basis. Such an approach
has been too long delayed, although
the need for it has been recognized
by the nations fiscal experts.
For example, late in 1882, sub
committee of the House Ways and
Mean~ Committee studying Federal
and State taxation and duplication'
therein, made preliminary report.
Let me quote from the statement
made by the able chief of staff of the
joint congressional committee on in
ternal revenue.
cat the completion of some months
Of study of our taxation system as a
whole, it is cur opinion that very sub
stantial improvements can oe made
therein, through cooperation tetween
the Federal government and the

HIGHS MEET EPSON
THERE THURSDAY
Team Will Play Game At
Home Friday; EPSON
Is Winner Over Locals
BY SEYMOUR DWORSKY

Yesterday I made a terrible mis-
take or a bit of a blunder; whichever
you choose to call it, for when l said
that the Bulldogs were to play Dab
ney on Thursday at Dabney, I was
sadly mistaken for they are to meet
with Epson tomorrow at Epson. But
I was correct and sincere when L said
that the squad would appreciate it If
a few people from Henderson would
come out to see the game and root
for them. You people don't seem to
realize how much good and how much
pep it puts in the players when they
look up in the grandstand and see
some people from the old home town
pulling for them; sitting on the edge
of their seats; hollowering and root
ing for them; or once in a while
chewing up a cigar or two, while in
intense and CONSTANT hope that the
local team will make good.
Since I've invited you to a game
that is to take place away from
Henderson I want to stress that the
team also appreciates it just as much
when you come out and root for them
when they play a game at home. On
Friday Coach Millers squad will play
a home game which is of course at
League Park, the game will start at
o'clock, and we'll be looking for a
big crowd not only consisting of
school children but also business men
and women.

What Do You
Know About
North Carolina?
By FRED H. MAY

L. What became of North Cardinals
$690,OO0 in the Wilmington & Weldon
and the Wilmington & Manchester
railroads?
2. How was building construction
at the University financed prior to
1905:
8. What was Vance's reply to his
political opponent for a seat in the
assembly of 1854?
\. What were two notable acts of
the legislature of 1874?
5. Who was North Cardinals first
governor to be impeached?
&. How many medicinal plants are
found in North Carolina?
ANSWERS
l. Governor Holden officials in
1853 sold the State holdings in these
two railroads for $158 600 cash and
bought carpetcag bonds, later re-
pudiated. Thus the State lost her en-
tire investment of over one-half mil
lion dollars
2. During the first 10 years the
construction of all buildings at the
University of North Carolina were
financed by gifts from friends of the
institution. The first direct appropria-
ton by the State for any University
building was in 1905 when the legisla-
ture provided $4,000 for the chemis-
try building.
3. Vance was only "a years of age,
and his opponent was making sport
Of his youthfulness. Vance replied by
saying: "Fellow-citizens, admit I am
young, but it is not my fault. My par
ents did not consult me as to the time
when | should be born. All I can pro-
mise you is to try to do better nex-
time"
4. The act to prevent Imprisonment
for debt except in case of fraud, and
debt the tools of laborer, one bed
stead for every two members of his
family, two months provisions, four
hogs and necessary household and kit
chen furniture up to the value of $50
o.
5. Governor Seth Sothel was tried
ny an assembly convened in 1889. He
was convicted of a numes including
extortion, oppression, tyranny and
'aking brides and sentenced to leave
he province for twelve months.
g. In a compilation made by J. l..
Burgess 1875 drug plants have been
ound. Some of these plants have
'pecies ranging as many as 70 in
lumber which brings the total so ia,
discovered in North Carolina to near
y 900 plants. Seventy-five percent of
all drug plants collected in the West
EN- Carolina.

Ugh judicious curtailment in expen-
ditures would doubtless not only be
welcomed by the public but would al
so have a most beneficial effect on
business"
We should ask ourselves the follow
ing questions:
Which taxes are most adaptable for
the use of the Federal government
and which are most adaptable for the
use of the state governments?
What taxes may be properly i'm
posed, if any, by 10th state and Fed
eral governments without serious OBJ
lection from the standpoint of equity ?
We must give our citizens a fair
and just system Of taxation, free from
'oopholea and inequities, and we must
also give our people full measure
OF value fo~ their tax dollars This
will require the reduction in expend-
lures now sought by the President.
