plete observance of this law by all
merchants as reason could expect
We are now installing an ade-
quate system to check-up on sales tax
returns with prompt follow-up on all
dellnquencieS. We are also increasing
our force of field auditors, and every
merchandising business in the State.
no matter how small it may be, may
expect a check-up from these audi
tors. No honest merchant need fear
it and it is not our purpose to try to
run up large delinquent tax account
OF to take advantage of the merchant
in any way. But we do expect to get
the amount of sales tax due the State
each month";
The gist Of the new rules and re-
gulations announced for the collection
of the sales tax for the coming two
years, beginning July 1, follows
l. No tokens will be used for the
collection of the fractional part of the
sales tax, although individual mer-
chants or groups of merchants may
use credit slips, such as are now be-
ing used by five and ten cents stores
and other variety stores, in order to
secure d more equitable QlSCf1Out1On
of the tax
2. Merchants will be required to
keep more complete records than ever
before, and of their invoices and pur-
chases from manufacturers and whole
salers, as we'll as records of sales to
retail customers.
8. Where adequate records are not
kept, the Department Of Revenue will
assess the tax on the best information
it can obtain and collect this tax
along with whatever penalties it may
be decided upon, up to 100 per cent
of the tax due.
4. When the exempted articles go
back into the sales tax law July 1,
the merchants must keep careful and
accurate record of the sales of ex-
empted articles separate and apart
from the records Of the sales of ar
ticles on which the sales tax must be
paid.
6. The sales tax. after July 1, must
be paid on sales of building materials
either to users or contractors, except
on rough and dressed lumber, (but
not mill work., brick, hollow tile,
sand, gravel crushed stone, rock and
granite.
6. The tax must also be paid on ar
ticles manufactured, processed or

Of Parkway Funds
CONTINUED from Page One.)

bers of the Senate Appropriations
Committee realize that the Blue Ridge
Parkway is q natural scenic highway
Of interest to every citizen Of the Unit
ed States and in no sense a local or
sectional undertaking. This parkway
really means more to the people in
the middle west and in the northeast
than to people in North Carolina and
in the southeastern states generally,
since the idea in building it is to pro-
vide means for people in other
states to visit the Blue Ridge noun
tains and the Great Smoky Mountains
National Park"
While the $500OOOO provided for
additional construction work will be
allocated by the National Park Ser
vice, and since part of the parkway
is in Virginia, some of this amount
will undoubtedly be allotted for work
in Virginia, Congressman Doughton
pointed out. But since most of the
parkway lying in Virginia has just
about been completed, Doughton be-
lieves that at least 100000 of this
$5,OOO,OOO should be made available
for additional highway construction
in North Carolina.

ART QUARTET
AND M'GINNIS
PLEASE THRONG
Clarinet Quintets In
Rare Presentation
BY GLEN DILLARD GUM

BY GLEN D4LLARD GUM
Musicians talk a great deal
about the chamber music works in
unusual combinations, the clarinet
quintets of Brahms and Mozart,
for example, but they play them
so rarely that those not profess
sionally interested do not know
the compositions.
Last night, in the charming and
acoustically perfect hall of the
Library of Congress, the Musical
Art Quartet, of New York, Joined
forces with Robert McGinnis, first
clarinetist of the Philadelphia
Symphony to dust off these ne
elected compositions; and capac-
ity audience found them most in
tereSting.
FAMED INSTRUMENTS USED
This was the third concert in
the series of nine which celebrate
the bicentennial Of the death OF
Antonio Stradivari and again the
famous instruments of the Whit
tall collection were taken from
their glass case and their armed
guards and placed in the hands OF
performers able to exploit their
noble capacities.
Mozart used the clarinet In his
operas and in several chamber
compositions, but waited until he
wrote his so-called paris" SYM
phony, late work in the series OF
81, before employing it in that
form. He knew its power to sing
an expressive melody and to lend
warmth and color to graceful pas
sages, and his vicar, last night,
knew, in turn, all the composers
intentions regarding this instru-
ment. He made the most OF its
liquid tone, its sensitive infection,
its wide range Of color.
LISTENERS IMPRESSED
The Mozart quintet was all his;
but his colleagues of the evening
gave him serious competition i'll
the Brahms, where, it must be con-
fessed, the clarinet is used less
skillfully. Brahms cast much OF
it's part in the lower register where
the brilliant Strads covered It;
and when he tried to make arts
tic use of its technical capacities
he found slight inspiration, though
Mr.. McGinniS made all possible
display of these episodes which
appeared most conspicuously in
tho c1oHTy movement
The Beethoven quartet, opus 95,
is q greater work and a more diff
ficult one. The Musical Art Four
approached it with reverence and
l, left upon their listeners an i'm
preston Of it's poetic and 1magina-
tive qualities, its quite modern use
of uncommon relationships IN
