lOG ufllllCdJlOIl VI NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Of the states public schools.
RALEIGH, Jan. 14.-Liquor,
election reform issues, and a pro-
posal to make death the penalty
for kidnapping, were placed for
mally upon the legislative calen-
dar yesterday.
Into the House, bearing the sig
natures of 16 introducers, came
the liquor bill with a proposal to
repeal the 1885 county control
laws and provide for statewide
referendum on whether the whole
state should be wet or dry on No
vember 9 Of this year.
Since other liquor bills embody-
ing the county control idea are in
preparation, the bill is expected
to remain in committee (Judici-
airy No. /, Rep. Sam Blount, chair
MANI until all may be considered
at one time after public hearings.
The Hutchins bill is in line with
the minority report Of the State
Liquor Commission, which split 4
to 3 on the question of a state
referendum.
From Rep. J. B. Vogler, Meek
lenburg. came two bills to change
polling hours from sunrise to sun
set, to 1880 a. m. to $50 p. M,
and to change the day for hold
ing primaries from Saturday to
Tuesday. These bills also will lie
in the Committee on Election
Laws until others accumulate. The
question Of election reforms. in
Guiding matters taken in the Vog-
Ter bills, will be taken up by the
State Democratic executive COM
mittee in it's meeting here Friday,
January %.
The recent kidnap-murder case
in Seattle, Wash, was echoed in
the senate in a bill introduced by
Sen. L. M. Alternately of Caldwell
to make the penalty for kidnap-
ing death. Another senate bill was
the widely-heralded measure of
Sen. ]. C. Pittman's to reorganize
the State Highway Commission.
The senate also received a bill to
remove the sales tax from speci-
fled necessities. A similar bill was
introduced in the house Tuesday.
The house recalled tragedies
from fireworks as it received two
bills to ban them as to sale and
use. They followed an explosion
in Asheville which took two lives
and accidents in High Point in
jured 100.
Senator Pittman's bill to reor-
ganize the highway commission
would provide a salary of $4,000
for the administrative office cor
responding to that now held by
Capus M. Waynick, commission
chairman, who gets $4,000 for his
services. As previously announced
by the senator from Lee, his re-
organization would make the

federal authorities believe that
more than one kidnaper was in.

EVERETT, Wash, Jan. IA
(UP)-Two suspects, a blood
stained automobile, and a rusty
hammer were held by authorities
today as the search for the degen-
crate kidnaper-slayer Of 10-year-
old Charles Mattson moved re-
lentlessly forward.
The search centered in Everett,
near where the naked body Of the
little victim was found Monday in
q snow bank. The automobile was
virtually established to be the ma
chine used by the criminal In dis
posing of the body, and there was
q possibility that the hammer was
the weapon that smashed the
child's skull after he had been
knitted and subjected to an un-
natural assault.
The two suspects were held at
Olympia. One was q known de-
generate. The other was an ex-
convict and had been partly con-
nected with the burglary OF q
home near that Of the Mattsons
in TacQma-a crime that, before
the body was found, had been
connected by some authorities
with the kidnapping itself.
Another man was arrested here
last night, but released after be-
ing questioned.
Meanwhile, at Tacoma, C. C.
Spears, federal bureau Of investi-
CATION aide to J. Edgar Hoover,
signed a John Doe warrant for
the arrest of the kidnaper, charg-
ing him with kidnapping, attempt
ed extortion, using the mails to
defraud, murder, and conspiracy
to kidnap and extort.
The warrant will permit Off
GERS to hold q suspect indefinitely,
whatever his name.

CREDIT BUYING
SETS RECORD

One factor making for initiation
since 1882 has been an increase
in the amount of funds borrowed
to finance purchases on the in
Stallment plan, according to the
Alexander Hamilton Institute.
While complete figures on in
stallment buying are not avail
able, retail automobile financing
throws considerable light on the
situation. Such financing in 1886
amounted to $1,716,00O,OO0 as
compared with $1,616,000,000 in
the pre-depression year 1929, an
increase of So per cent.
The year 1887 started off with
automobile financing running at
an annual rate of $1,977 900 900,
or 1913 per cent more than in
1929. Since the national income
in 1896 was 24.5 per cent lower
than in 1929, there is considerable
evidence that the debt incurred
through installment purchases is
approaching an amount which
cannot be greatly expanded.
The curtailment of installment
buying in 1880, 1881 and 1882 was
accompanied by a deflation of the
national income Notwithstanding
the inflationary influence of Gov
eminent borrowing, the report
added.

STEEL OUTPUT
RATE HIGH

Steel output continues at
high level, but new buying is in
lighter volume, according to the
magazine Steel" Operations re-
main at 911a per cent.
Despite smaller inquiry mills
have not made much Roadway IN
reducing backlogs and continue TO
restrict bookings to average needs
OF the buyer, the review said.
Adjustment of steel and iron
scrap prices is proceeding in or
derby fashion, according to the
summary, with the composite
down to SCI, off so cents for the
week. European scrap consuming
countries, it was stated, are form
ing a cartel to handle purchases of
scrap for import IN an effort to OBJ
tain better prices.
Railroads continue to support
the market by large equipment
orders, the summary said, with car
orders for April to date within
less than 300 cars of the S,155
bought in March.
Foreign pig iron consumers con.
tinue to look to this country for

Great Britain be asked to cede ter

in payment of its debt.
