hardest members down and almost
out, Governor Ehringhaus seemed to
thrive and grow stronger as it pro-
crossed When it was over, the budget
was balanced, the States credit had
been restored, the schools had been
kept open, property taxes had been
reduced to the extent of at least $12,-
100000 a year or in an amount equal
to one-third of the total property tax
bill of the State and the State govern
ment was being operated on a cash
and carry, pay-asyou-go plan, which
has been maintained for four years.
Since the day Governor Ehringhaus
took office four years ago, the State
of North Carolina has not had to bor
row one penny for operating expenses
or to pay out one cent of interest on
any tax anticipation notes.
Will Have Credit Balance.
When the present biennium ends
June 80, 1887, the State will have a
credit balance of at least $4,500,00 in
it's treasury-the balance is almost
this large now-while at the present
time North Carolina bonds are back
above par and Iceing sought after by
safest and best investments that can
be found. In addition, the State has
paid off something like $24,0OO,OOO OF
its bonded debt during this four years
or more than it had off in all the ad-
ministratiOns of all former governors.
Within this same four wears period,
the State and local governments have
paid off approximately $50 0G0,0O in
debts, of which $3S, 000,0 COCO has been
by counties, cities and towns.
But the administration of Governor
EhrinShauS has been almost as not
able for what it has done for the pub
tic schools as for what it has accom-
plished for the States finances. For
while the assumption of the cost of
maintaining the schools by the State
has undoubtedly worked Q hardship
on some of the city school systems
which had nine months terms and
which were cut back to eight months,
the inghaus-sponsored program OF
State support for the schools from in
direct taxation has brought an eigh;
months school term to every child in
the State, has resulted in keeping
every school in the State open and in
every teacher getting paid promptly
every month. If the State had not as
sumed the task of maintaining the
schools, it is generally agreed that in
most of the rural sections of the
State, the schools could not and would
not have been operated for more than
three to five omnths year during
the past four years. The State has
its expenditure for schools
from $16,O00,G00 a year in 1933-34 to
S24 100000 year during the next two
years, with the local units having the
privilege and right to supplement this.

by other states, also that the retail
prices seem to be about in line. But
the report adds that neither the pub
lie nor the State has any assurance
that the present price conditions will
continue to prevail.
Powerful Weapon
1t is generally conceded that if the
General Assembly should enact this
recommendation and turn over $780,
600 to the governor and the Council
of State to use for the construction
Of a State-owned gasoline terminal,
that it will provide the State with a
powerful weapon to use against the
gasoline companies. There is no doubt
that the oil and petroleum compan es
do not want this State or any other
State to go into the gasoline and oil
business and hat with threat con-
stantly over them, they are not liable
to run the risk of offending the State
to the point where it would build it's
own gasoline and oil terminal In
other words, most observers here be-
lieve that if this 100000 should be
appropriated, the money would never
have to be spent, since the mere fact
that 1t was there would serve as an
almost perpetual insurance policy
against discrimination and unfavor-
able prices on the part of the gasoline
companies. In it's findings, listed be-
fore its recommendations, the COM
mission found that prior to the pres
ent year and contract, both the State
i've
the State had been Disseminated
against by the gasoline companies
doing business here.
State Licensing
A second recommendation made by
the commission is that the legislature
enact a law requiring all gasoline and
Gil companies to obtain permits from
the State before the erection of any
filling stations. Such a law, it is
agreed, would give the State power
10 regulate the number of stations
and thus to reduce the number of
stations The commission maintains
mat one reason for the high price of
gasoline is the very high overhead
coSt OF maintaining so many filling
Statlons and that if the number should
oe regulated, the overhead cost could
De reduced, which in turn should re-
uuce the cost of gasoline. 1t is also
pointed out that this might reduce the
aleged practice on the part of big
gasoline companies Of building big
ming stations near small independ-
emf operators in order to squeeze them
out of business.
Transfer of Inspection
me commission also recommends
that the inspection of all gasoline
measuring and storage equipment be
ansterred from the State Depart
hent OF Agriculture to the State De-
parpment of Revenue, where the gaso-
/ me analytical work is now being done

peachable honesty, unchanging cour-
tesy, continuous good craftsmanship,
fine fighting ability and an amazing
amount of intestinal fortitude
Greatest Achievements.
While people generally are inclined
to regard the financial accomplish
ments CT Governor Ehringhaus as the
most outstanding achievements of his
administration, those who are fam
liar with his record during the past
four years maintain that his accom-
plishments in the fields of public edu-
cation, agriculture, prison reform,
governmental reorganization, labor re-
forms and social security are just as
outstanding.
When Governor Ehringhaus took
office four years ago. not only was
he sick man, but the State was sick
as well-financially sick. Not only
did he find the State with a deficit of
$15000,0G0, but it was facing steadily
decreasing revenues, with banks
bursting like firecrackers, and with
factories and business concerns shut
ting down or failure on every hand
In fairness to former Governor O.
Max Gardner it should be said that
this deficit was not any fault of his,
but was largely due to the failure of
the 1881 General Assembly to levy
enough taxes to meet appropriations
and especially to it's failure to extend
to the governor and budget I3ureau
the power to reduce the appropria-
tons for schools, just as it had the
power to reduce other appropriations.
Bleak, Dark Days.
At this same time, the States bonds
had dropped as low as $40, the State
could not borrow a nickel in New
York and was being pressed for the
immediate payment of some $6,OOO,-
600 in short term notes, bearing six
percent interest In addition, counties.
cities and towns were defaulting on
their indebtedness, counties and cities
were not able to collect the taxes due
them and the schools were being fac
ed with the spectre of having to close
for lack of money to pay the teachers.
to buy fuel and to operate buses.
Those were bleak dark, sick DAYS for
a new governor and a sick governor
to face.
discouraged, was not frightened and
was unafraid. He rolled up his sleeves
and went to work. He told the 1888
General Assembly that first of all it
must balance the budget-provide a
dollar revenue for every dollar ap-
propriated. He also maintained that
with the tremendous shrinkage in pro-
perty values, and the difficulty of col
lecting taxes, the only way to keep
the schools open was to transfer
school maintenance to the State-and
that the schools must be kept open
even though general sales taz
should be required.

commission further recommends that
