SAFETY MOVEMENT
GETS BIG SUPPORT
Over 200 Carolinians Back
Plan of Press and
Motor Club

Charlotte, Jan. 26-More than 1900
Carolinians last week were enrolled in
the mobilization for highway safety
movement sponsored by the Carolina
Motor Club and the press, it was an
nounced today at Carolina Motor Club
headquarters here.
There are no costs or obligations in
connection with becoming a part of
the movement to curtail the loss of
life and damage to property as a re-
suit of traffic accidents, other than a
promise to drive carefully and en-
doavor to go through the year 1887
without accident. Those who enter
are mailed cards recognizing their
safe driving records and their names
are recorded at Carolina Motor club
headquarters. Those who maintain
mo accident" records throughout the
year will be presented with certifi-
Gates of award.
The first of a series of local COM
mittees was organized at Charlotte
during the week. J. Caldwell Nc
Donald was named chairman for the
Charlotte area. He will appoint chair
men of subcommittee on location
and causes Of accidents; laws, ordin-
ances and enforcement; engineering
and traffic signals; public education;
enrolment and awards.
Similar committees will be organic
ed in outstanding communities
throughout the Carolinas. The move
ment is receiving wholehearted sup
port from industr9li commercial,
civic, fraternal, religious and educa-
tional organizations and from officials
and individuals interested in safety
throughout both North and South
Carolina.
ANY individual or any organization,
regardless of race or creed, is invited
to enroll in the mobilization for high
way safety" Coleman w. Roberts,
president of the Carolina Motor club,
said. 1--WE are tremendously pleased
with the response and endorsement

again. It wasn't summer dish
but it had its virtues; it was cheap
and the leftovers could be served
as a meat pie the next day. With
a crisp salad, it would make a
nutritious meal for Joel, who
looked these days as though he
needed nutrition.
Sometimes Janet was stricken
as she thought of the responsibility
she was to Joel, yet she knew that
if he didn't have her to exc out
his pennies-and to do it so that
he would not realize that he was
practically penniless- his lot would
have been worse.
"Do you ever miss working 2"
she said rather unexpectedly to
herself, addressing Margaret.
Heavens, no! I don't have
time. My dear, when you keep
house, the day just flies. I have
marketing and little things to do
around here and suddenly it is time
for Jim to get home and the day
is gone. I don't suppose you have
either. It must be rather a story
book life and full of glamor to be
married to an actor, isn't it?"
eyes," Janet said, 'it's very diff
ferent. One feels so completely an
individual that is every
one seems to be doing something"
She realized her words made little
sense. sN
II was surprised to hear that
you gave up your job" Margaret
picked up ice cubes from a silver
bucket with a silver spoon and
dropped them in Janet's glass. IT
was in Faber's the other day and
Mr.. Hoadley''-he had been Janet's
superior-"was bemoaning your
departure"
Janet felt as though her ears
were distended toward Margaret
but she gave no sign.
'sHe said he couldn't take a vaca-
ton because he had no capable
person to take charge. You know
he hasn't been able to find an as
sistant since you left? I guess
your job is there if you want to go
back"
Walking home through the park
an hour later, Janet thought of
that. And she made a decision.
Once she had done so, she fastened
her steps,. No matter what Joel
said, she had made up her mind.
She couldn't stand that strained
look in JoePs eyes. She was sick
to death Of lamb stew and pork
chops and hamburgers. She
wanted broiled chicken and sweet
breads. She wanted them for him.

towel with which he had been wip-

Janet's voice was patient and
had the quality of mother speak

don't mean word of it. You're
bright, intelligent man and a
reasonable one, too, only you
haven't seen the point yet. I can
go back to my job and earn $40 a
week. I'll give it up when you get
a part and in the meantime we'll
have money for carfare and clothes
and decent food"
For better or for worse" Joel
muttered and paced the small
floor.
Lets consider this for the bet
ter" she said as she wiped the last
plate and put it on the shelf.
But Joel went on, angrily:
"You know it's a matter of prin-
ciple with me. Why will you be
stubborn You know I cannot al
low you to go back to work! Janet,
if you go, this is the end between
us. It tells me only one thing
that it means you aren't willing to
share my luck. Do you want a
husband who has no pride ?"
Janet thought: Twenty dollars
and the rent is $12 a week. What
next?
She saw herself back at her Job,
back in the sweet little rooms on
Twelfth street. She saw the long,
empty nights without Joel.
She walked across the room and
put her arms around him.
mo, darling, I don't want any
thing but what I've got. You'll
get something. You've got to!
Forget that I said anything about
going to work. Let's go out and
sit in the park. It will be cool
there and nothing terrible is going
to happen to us tonight. When
tomorrow comes, who knows what
will turn up?"
That was their first quarrel if
it could be called that, and Janet
had met it as she was often to do,
by recognizing the Importance of
Joel's pride. 1t was part of him
and she loved all of him.
The next day something did turn

Watch the joint appropriations com
mittee WELD it's axe and chop mil
lions of the requests for appropria-
tions made by the various State de-
partments and institutions recently.
For while the various State agencies
asked for some $11 100000 more than
the Advisory Budget Commission re-
commended during the public hear
ings by the committee, expectations
are that the committee is going to cut
these requests back to about the same
amounts recommended by the budget
committee. This will means a general
fund budget of between $4,000 900
and $3S, 900, 900 instead of one of about
$48, 100000.

School officials-and school lob

charges on the old Notwithstanding
of teachers. Every time the legisla-
ture convenes the appropriations COM
mittees are told they positively must
increase teachers salaries because if
they don't the States schools will not
be able to secure a sufficient number
of properly trained instructors.
Yet the cold figures show that even
in the best times there were moro
than two applicants for every teacher
post open in North Carolina. And
throughout the worst Of the depres-
sion this State was able to outbid
practically every other Southern
State for the services of competent
teachers, as North Carolina salaries,
even with big cuts, were higher than
in other parts of Dixie.
