CHURCH SOCIETIES
ANNOUNCEMENTS

Of the county stores to buy their Ii
quor at lower prices, since distillers
can ship orders for Is or 20 stores all
at one time to one warehouse, where
they now have to ship to so or 60 diff
ferent stores in broken lots.
"The first thing we are trying to
do is to break up bootlegging and to
make it increasingly hard for the
bOotleggers to get government tax
paid liquor" Chairman Moore said.
"Under the present system with so
or more distillers shipping several
hundred brands to 60 or more dif
ferent liquor stores in Is different
counties, it is impossible to tell how
much of the liquor shipped goes to
legal county stores or whether some
of it is diverted to bootleggers for il
legal sale in bootleg liquor stores in
dry as well as wet counties. We do
know that bootleggers are having lit
tie or no trouble in getting whatever
brands of liquor they want and that
they are selling a tremendous amount
of it, especially in the so-called dry
counties.
"By requiring all of the county Ii
quOr stores to purchase their liquor
through one or two central ware
houses, where every order will be
carefully checked both with the or
ders from the stores and the invoices
from the distillers, we will be able to
keep an accurate record of the a
mount ordered by and delivered to
every county store which ill then be
checked later with the amount sold
INV CT ole -
insist that deliveries be made from
the warehouses to the stores only in
the day time, by bonded drivers-and
that there must he two drivers on
every truck. These official trucks
from the licensed warehouses will be
the only ones which will be permitted
to haul liquor anywhere within the
State. and then only between the
warehouses and the liquor stores in
wet counties. Thus officers in other
counties will know that any other
trucks found transporting liquor are
doing SO illegally and in violation of
the state law, unless they are trans
porting it in interstate commerce."
This new system will not increase
the wholesale cost of liquor to the
county liquor stores, but will actually
decrease it, Moore said, since many Of
the distillers will be able to sell and
ship their liquor in larger lots A
number of distillers are already quot
ing lower prices to the State board
than they have been quoting to county
boards. But purchases will still be
made by the county boards or pur-
chasing agents, by and with the APP
prov&l of the state board. There will
be a uniform delivery charge of 30
cents a case from the licensed Ware
HOSES to county stores, regardless
Of the location of the stores, Moore
sails.
Ely having these warehouses, tho
county lie ror stores can carry much
smaller stocks and hence not have to
keep SO much capital tied up in liquor
stocks, since they can get deliveries
at any time from the warehouses,
where adequate supplies of all the APP
proved brands will be kept at all times

Some revision of the budget propos-

Chest, which is to be undertaken this
fall, will likely be made when the
committee having the matter in hand
meets, probably in the next few days,
to make final estimate and give APP

be included.
A tentative budget for considera-

are interested was made up several
weeks ago and made public by Sam
Afford, chairman of the chest organi-
cation. It calls for a total of $4,95O
Some discussion of the items includ-
ed has been had, and at least one
beneficiary agency has protested an
inadequacy for it's purposes.
When the chest committee meets
shortly it is expected to fix the def
mite amount of money to be sought
and also agree upon a date for the
campaign, when the community will
be asked to underWrite the undertake
ing.
The city has never before under
taken to do it's charity and benevolent
work through single agency solicit
ing medium, although there has long
been an agitation for just such an ar
rangement as now proposed.

]. HARRY BUM, 50,
PASSES SUDDENLY
Prominent Textile Man Dies
at Home Hour After At
tack at Office

J. Harry Bum, SO, superintendent
of the Henderson Cotton Mills here,
and an outstanding citizen died at his
home at 325 Charles street shortly
before o'clock this afternoon, less
than an hour after he suffered heart
attack at his office at the mills at
North Henderson.
He had not been i'll and had never
had any allment of the heart, so far
as was known. Members of the fam
lily said he appeared in good health
and good spirits when at home for
lunch at the usual hour.
Funeral arrangements had not been
made late this afternoon, but it was
thought the services would be some
time Friday, probably from the First
Baptist church.
Mr.. Bum is survived by his widow
who before marriage was Miss Matte
Dean; three sons, Robert Bum, sup
erintendent of Harriet Cotton Mills
Nos. / and 2 at South Henderson; DR..
J. Harry Bum, physician of Winston
Salem, and Dean Bum, dental student
now attending Wake Forest College;
and one daughter, Miss Margaret
Bum, of the faculty of the public
schools of Wilson,; one brother, A. A.
Bum, prominent Henderson attorney;
and four sisters, Miss Bertha Bum
and Mrs. Nellie Clifton, both of Hen
derson; Mrs. Manton Oliver, of Reds
vile, and Mrs. T. M. Johnson, of
Greenville. His mother, Mrs. Robert
Bum, also survives but his father
has been dead some twenty years.
Mr.. Bum was born in Hamilton, On
tario, Canada, November 10, 1877 but
came to Henderson with his parents
when he was less than a year old and
had lived here since that time.
After completing his education, he
became affiliated with the Hender
son Cotton Mills company and climb
ed to the office of superintendent,
which he had held some Is or 80
years.
He was leading member of the
First Baptist church of Henderson,
and for years had been a member of
the lcoard of deacons. He was also
active in the Henderson Kiwanis club
virtually since it was organized here
more than a decade, ago, and was a
past president of the club.

POLITICS MAY HALT
NEW ROAD PROJECT
Virginia Angle to Parallel
for Route Comes to
Light Here

Injection of politics into the situa-
ton in Virginia may do what move
ment launched here several weeks
ago had as its goal, the blocking of
the diversion of tourist traffic from
the present national highway, Route
1, to an auxiliary route further to
the east, according to information
learned today.
The State of Virginia would have
to furnish a good deal of the money
highway, which would route south
ward from Petersburg by way of
Lawrenceville, cross the wide Roa-
noke river and move on by Warren
ton, thence to Louisburg and into Ra-
leigh. North Carolina would have to
spend some $2,5OO,OOO for that portion
of the highway that would lie in this
State, according to estimates.
In Virginia, a political faction that
carries considerable weight, and
which centers in the South Hill sec
ton, is determinedly opposed to the
new project, and is said to outweigh
the eastern group in pull at the
State capital. And that may be a ire
mendous factor in hating an under
taking for which agitation has be-
come vigorous in recent weeks.
Moreover, the State of North Caro-
lima hasn't the $2,50O,OOO to put into
the road at this time, and it is not
in sight for any immediate near fu-
lure period.
Vance county's share of an allot-
ment of some 100000 for the high
way district in which the county is
located will be used to complete the
Townsville road to Townsville, beyond
WILLIAMSBURG, to which grading has
been done, one other road, and then
admit Of some consideration to de-
mand for widening of Route one from
Henderson to the Virginia line. The
funds are not available in the present
highway budget, however, for that
widening project at the present time,
according to best information avail
able.
