There is a difference in the case and the

one can have, and give, needed information

are not More than one or two photographs
on record at the local Office.
Small tcwu Or not - Elizabeth City will
never become larger until the people who
i've hy-o cdJ?t large town ideas.
Elizabeth City can never progress any
further than thc people responsible for the
city's welfare will progress. As long as they
look at the past and say I'VE have been
doing all right" just 50 long will the town
live in the past
Only when those in authority wake up and
sec tie need for things that modern times
have shown to be not luXuries, but neccs-
stiles, VIII Elizabeth City take a forward
step.
Srglc-cn'ry bookkeeping was sufficient
for the corner merchant in the late sos,
but not a prosperous business can be found
today that does not use a double-entry
system.
This is 50 for the simple reason that only
by better system Of financial records can
an enterprise tell where it is heading The
same is true uf Elizabeth City; it must mod

Some Informal Highlights
On North Cardinals
Capitol Hill

Raleigh. Feb. 4. -(UR)- The
Iron Major" OF CASTOR Is a ring
master in his own right.
AS Speaker of the House, R.
Gregg Cherry cracks the whip,
snarls and bellows at the 1l9
members of the lower body.
No one discounts that ne was a
sergeant overseas. Five minutes
in the House is enough proof.
Three sessions ago, Gregg Cher
ry came up from CASTOR to serve
as representative. Because Of his
eagerness to fight legislatively,
willing to give no quarter and re-
ceive none, soon he was called
The Iron Major" The name has
stuck.
The daily independent., 1937-02-05

Now he is displaying more than
ever lust what that name means.
Blunt-spoken, with a twist OF
sarcasm thrown in, Cherry rides
the legislative ring in a fashion
that would do good the hearts OF
Barnum and Bailey were they
alive.
He smiles when he talks. But
his voice has a snap. The men,
bers know he means what he says.
Best of Pender had sent in ar
amendment to the tobacco COM
pact bill. He asked that he be per-
mitted to withdraw it.
Tear it out and send it back tc
him." yelled Cherry.
The House roared. The galleries
rolled in laughter.
There must be order there
will be order" Cherry roared into
the din.
And order there was. The House
grew quiet.
Cherry smiled, rolled a cud o
tobacco in his jaw and told the
assembly to proceed.
He reminds the House every
day that there is plenty Of work
ahead. He keeps pushing the COM
mitteeS.
If you want to go home you
had better get to work." he warns.
And the committees work. They
are cleaning their boards in fast
action. Legislative observers say it
is the SpeedieSt session in years.
From many sources CherrJ gets
the credit.
He's riding them high, wide and
handsome.
Representative Moore of Pitt
had the galleries crying.
Some legislators. too, grew SOL
emn. And some even walked out.
Moore was pleading for the lit
tie man on the farm,
He recounted that as boy he
knew what cold, chapped hands
in winter were.
Il know what it is to see the
tears of a mother streaming down
her face when her children are
hungry. bare and cold he said.
His voice was soft, preacher
like.
The tobacco compact bill was
facing the crucial moment in the
House.
Moore wanted to see it passed.
You have been amendized," he
told the House. This bill must go
through unhampered by amend
mentS."
