FLOOD BUDGET
BOOST LIKELY

The Budget Bureau soon will
propose a sharp increase in flood
control funds over the January
budget estimates, members Of
Congress we're informed today.
The proposal is expected to call
for an appropriation of at least
$50, 200, 900, to carry out the $780,
100000 flood control act, passed
last year instead Of the $30,000,-
600 recommended in January.
The bureau also is expected to
recommend an increase in the
$22, 100000 suggested in January
to carry on the huge flood con-
troll program on the lower Mis-
sissippi River.
A decision to speed flood con-
troll works already authorized by
Congress, to minimize the danger
of disastrous floods, wa said to
be the reason for the proposed
increase in immediate appropria
tons.

TIMBER LACK
IS SECUTED

The lumber industry's opportuni-
ties to recapture lost markets and
return to its former prosperity de-
ponds more upon the extent of
local labor shortages and the avail
ability of working capital than on
rumored fears of an inadequate
timber supply. DR.. Wilson Compton
told members of the National Lum.
Der Manufacturers Association
yesterday in the opening session
of their thirty-fifth annual meet
ing, now in progress at the May
flower Hotel.
In his secretary's report, DR..
Compton said there still were vast
unused sources of lumber which,
If fully developed, could produce
q supply greatly in excess of pro-
spective demand. The labor prob
lem, he said, involving a detailed
discussion of current strikes and
the effect of Supreme Court deci.
sions on the industry, will receive
consideration at the association
luncheon today.
Emphasis on the promotion OF
a national, low-cost housing pro
gram was given by both DR.. Comp
ton and w. B. Nettleton, president
They estimated a five-year pro
gram Of construction to reach
3,200,0 900 homes, or about $4,000
units a year. Part of the housing
movement will be diverted to con
struction of automobile trailerc
used for permanent residences.
The association will meet with
the Forest Conservation Confer
ence beginning tomorrow for a
three-day joint session. A dinner
will be held at the Mayflowel

Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
By j. G.. BASKERVILLE

RaIeigh, Jan. 25.-Not only is there
no duplication between the functions
of the State geologist of the Depart
ment of Conservation and Develop
ment and the State mine inspector Of
the Department of Labor, but the
work of these two officials is decid-
eddy different, State Geologist H. J..
Bryson, explained today, taking cog
nizance of recent inquiry on this
subject.
''The law creating the old North
Carolina Geological and Economic
Survey, succeeded by the Department
of Conservation and Development"
according to Mr.. Bryson, "says that
the State geologist shall investigate
mineral deposits to determine the
economic possibilities The law Great
ing the Department of LABOR says
that the State mine inspector shall
inspect the mining properties to de-
termine the safety conditions of the
men employed and to see that the
safety laws are observed.
GAS shown by the laws creating
these departments, there is no dupli-
catiCA of effort because one deals
with investigation to determine the
economic possibilities while the other
inspects to determine the safety con-
ditions.
"At the present time, the State mine
Inspector, employed by the Depart
ment of Labor, cooperates with the
Division of Mineral Resources in that
the mine inspector sends copies of
his inspection reports to the State
geologist. The State geologist cooper
ates with the State mine inspector in
reporting conditions in mines and
quarries that are hazardous to the
men employed. After this report is
made, the State mine inspector for
wards copies to the commissioner and

ALI Unwanted Persons and
Products at Line
Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Daily Dispatch Bureau,


Raleigh, Jan. 25.-North Carolina
would put patrol on every highway
entering the State and would erect a
barrier to keep out all unwanted per-
sons and products, if Representative
j. B. Vogler, of Mecklenburg, had his
way about it.
Too, the State would have a depart
ment of justice of its own, with opera
tives authorized to supervise and in
vestigate (under cover) operation of
the law enforcement agencies of every
town, city and county.
The Charlotte solon believes the
State should pay particular attention
to those who enter it's borders and
should see to it that they introduce
no contraband of any sort He would,
therefore, have every conveyance of
every sort, kind of description stop
ped and searched as it enters North
Carolina. -
Would Turn En- Back.
If there are persons in the convey
ance who cannot show that they have
good and sufficient reasons for COM
ing into Tar Heelia, they would be
turned back forthwith, under the Vog-
lC1 pldI Illus, lie CIlluhS, 1Iuc11ly uD-
desirables would be excluded and the
unemployment problem of the State
would be lessened to no slight extent
He cited the Charlotte mail truck
robbery of some three years ago as a
crime that his border patrol and in
spection service would have prevented
because, he says, the machine guns
with which the bandits were armed
would have been discovered and their
importers Immediately Jailed. He men
toned, too, a recent cache of arms
found in a Charlotte hotel and said
they could and should have been kept
out of the State.
Some persons may claim that tour
lists and other on legitimate business
might object to being stopped and
searched as they enter North Caro-
lima, but Mr.. Vogler says he doesn't
think many good citizens would mind
being quizzed and inspected if they
had nothing to conceal

There hasn't been an English gov

pot. The best results were obtained,
however, when the whole bed was
sprayed, leaving other beds some dis
lance away to serve as checks.
Because the plants are grown in a
limited space, spraying is not much
of problem, DR.. Clayton says. Both
bordeaux mixture and copper-oxide
oil are inexpensive and can be obtain
ed readily as commercial products.
Although promising results have
been obtained from the spraying, de-
finite recommendations are not being
made tc the growers in different sec
tions of the tobacco belt. New ma
terials and new schedules are still be-
ing tested. DR.. Clayton believes that
definite seeded spray program may
be worked out soon to provide effec-
tive control of wildfire, mildew, and
other seeded infections. It is very
certain, however, that a bordeaux
mixture spray is not effective against
the mildew or blue mold disease.

Jan. 25, 1759-Robert Burns was

No literary mans birthday is more
widely observed. On Robbie Burns
day, loyal Scots everywhere eat bag
gis. The legend is that st. Andrew,
patron of Scotia, was walking through
Ahe countryside and stopped at a
peasants home for food. The family
and left for him were the heart, lungs
and liver, which he chopped up, mix
ed with oatmeal, stuffed in the stom-
ach and boiled. Much to the surprise
of everybody, it wasn't so bad. And
this mixture, together with onion and
peppers, remains the standard recipe
for haggis, and dish Robbie Burns
was first to celebrate.
It is served hot with mashed pota-
toes and full glass of Scotch whisky.
With a tumbler of Scotch in you, you
don't care what you eat.

They were workingmen and idlers,
too, 1000 all told, led by Daniel Shays,
40-year-old veteran of Washington's

capitalists whom they blamed for pow
erty, unemployment and high taxes.
They wanted courts curbed, a big is
