Raleigh, Oct 294Speeches of Com
missioner of Agriculture w. Kerr
Scott and State College Dean 1. O.
Schaub before the State Grange con-
vention at Oxford forecast battle
royal in the 1899 legislature for agri-
cultural appropriations.
Scott, continuing his drive for
better marketing program, reiterated
his intention to seek funds for that
purpose. Schaub, as head of the re-
search and experimental division, an
nounced he will seek some $4,000 dol
lars in increased funds for that sort
of agricultural work.
What with every other division of
every other department trying to pry
the State loose from more money, this
means that it's going to be a question
OF every man for himself when the
appropriating time comes. $3.50
It also means that in all likelihood
the Messrs. Scott and Schaub will be
found during the legislature doing a
bit of battling each other-something
which, incidentally, will be nothing
new for them, as they have been more
or less at loggerheads over something
or other ever since the Alamance
man took over the Department of
Agriculture.
Both are very determined men and
it ought to be scrap worth watching.
OF course, there is the possibility that
the two may get together and each
do some back scratching for the 9TH
er's pet plan, but that wouldn't be
characteristic. Jealousy between tht
State Extension Service and the De
partment has existed in virulent form

On Speeding

Raleigh, Oct. 29.-Ronald Hocutt,
director of the Highway Safety Divis
ion, is giving careful study to pro-
posed amendments to North Cardinals
motor vehicle law, chief among which
is establishment of maximum speed
limits on all parts of the States high
way system. y q sti e>,4i|'. ~
He has not definitely committed
himself to any speed limit, but he has
expressed the opinion that excessive
speed is one of the chief accident
causes. His department chief, Com
missioner of Revenue A. j. Maxwell.
has on several occasions favored some
speed maximum, although he has
never committed himself to any par
ticular figure. ssf
The amendment which Director Ho-
cutt is studying are those recommend
ed by committee from the National
Motor Vehicle Administrators Asso-
ciation-a group which met recently
in Washington and studied at length
proposals to revise the so-called Uni
form Motor Vehicle Law, of which
North Carolina's statute is virtually
a copy. sg~~ isf'ii +ftsr ~
Outstanding in the committees re-
concentrations is one that an abso-
lutte maximum speed of not more than
As miles per hour be set on all night
driving. While Mr.. Hocutt has not said
he favors such a limit in North Car
olina he indicated an inclination Ito
that point of view by pointing out
that excessive speed is particularly
dangerous when the drivers view is
limited by darkness or weather con-
ditions which impair full visibility up
to 500 feet. 4

likely be submitted as rccommenda-
tions of his division.

Raleigh, Oct 29.-There is more
than a little head scratching going on
around Raleigh in an effort to solve
the weighty problem of why the cleo
trical cooperatives of the State so sig
nally failed to show the slightest CO.
operation with an obviously coopera-
tive-minded State Rural Electrified
;ion Authority. hss.a fta.. n
Recently Director Dudley Bagley
and Secretary d. S.. Weaver got in
touch with all the half dozen coops
over the State on the subject Of hold
ing get-together session in Raleigh
at which mutual problems could be
discussed, information and advice
swappcd Date was set for the session
"a date presumably satisfactory to
all concerned.
When the time came just one had a
representative here. Three didn't even
take the trouble to write explaining
why they didn't attend. y
All of which recalls that the State
REA and the Federal REA haven't
been in any too close ropproachment
(cahoots to YOU'D, largely because the
Federal body look pristling exception
to the Bagley policy of cooperating
with everytody-private utilities, MIL
inequalities and cooperatives-a policy
which has resulted in putting North
Carolina in the front rank in advanc-
ing rural electrification.
At all events, it is fact that Boyd
Fisher one of the big shots of Fed
eral REA, came into Raleigh a couple
of weeks ago, saw Governor Clyde r.
Hoey and, among others, Dean l. O.

much as darkening the door of the

ferent types of anemia are known
to the medical profession? (21
What are the chief causes ~
anemia? (3) Would weak nervous
system affect the blood? az What
is the best method of treatment Of
the anemias?"
Answer: (1) Anemias may be
secondary to blood loss from hem.
orrhage or to infections. They NAV
be primary degenerations of the
marrow, in which case they are clas.
sified on the basis of the appearance
of the blood cells under the micro.
scope into hyperchronic and hypo-
chronic. Lastly, anemia may occur
from increased blood destruction in
the spleen-splenic anemia. (2)
Causes of anemia are hemorrhage.
infection, any wasting disease, lack
of the marrow-stimulating element
in the stomach-Addisonian anemia
and enlargement of spleen. (3)
In Addisonian or pernicious anemia,
there is a degeneration of the nerv
GUS system, but it is effect rather
than cause. (4) Anemias are
treated by removing the cause, if
possible; liver extract, iron, Vita
min B and removal of the spleen.

ALL TISSUES of the body, con-
tain inorganic chemical salts or
minerals. Some tissues, such as
bone, are largely made up of min
erals - calcium and phosphorus.
There is constant loss of these
materials from the body. SO they
must constantly be replaced in the
food. snr
If they are deficient in the diet,
or if they are not utilized, a def
mite disease develops in the case of
nearly everyone.
CGLciatna-Besides being an ingre-
dent Of the structure of bone and
teeth, calcium is utilized in many
ways in the body. It is necessary
for the clotting of blood. 1t is neces-
sary that a certain concentration of
calcium be present in the muscles
in order that proper tone be main
tanned. The secretion of the para
thyroid glands is necessary for
proper calcium utilization.
There are two disorders of cal
cium metabolism. One is tetany (not
to be confused with tetanus), a pc
culiar spasm and lack of control of
the muscles. It may occur in nurs-
ing mothers, due to the depletion
of calcium. It is not due entirely to
deficiency of calcium in the diet, be-
cause if the calcium is increased, it
is not helped. Replacement of the
parathyroid secretion, however, does
cure.
ricketts, May Occur
Ricketts, is the other disease of
calcium (and phosphorus nutrition)
and is a far more frequent and seri-
Gus condition. It occurs in young
children. The bones may become so
spongy as to result in deformities.
Here, too, simple calcium replace
ment does no good, until vitamin D.,
in. the form of cod liver oil or some
other form, is given.
Iron and copper-Iron is a part
of the blood and Of MANY tissue pig
ments. An adult man requires in his
food about Is mg. of iron day.
This he easily gets on a balanced
diet. Lettuce, yellow corn, meats,
livers, spinach, raisins, eggs and
oatmeal contain iron. tThe ash of
lettuce, corn or beef liver, fed to an
anemic person, will restore him. It
was found, incidentally, that this
restoration depends on a trace of
copper. Copper does not enter into
the composition of any cells of the

chine had taken in. Mr.. Briscoe said
he asked to look at the machine, but
Elliott agreed only when he was
threatened with arrest.
Mr. Briscoe said he found two small
levers had been placed on the machine
which prevented hitting either of the
two highest pots the player can get.
Mr.. Briscoe testified the machines,
without the gadgets, paid back to the
player about IS cents on the dollar,
but with the contrivances the return
would not exceed 10 cents.

White HOUSETHIEF
GIVEN SIX MONTHS
Man Arrested Sunday After So
Theft Pleads Guilty to Petty
Larceny.

William Buchly, 81, of the 400 block
Of Ingraham street NV, who was
arrested Sunday by White House
police after he stole three marked
81 bills at the Executive Offices, plead
ed guilty to petty larceny before
Judge Hobart Newman in Police Court
today and was sentenced to serve six
months in jail.
Acting 1t. Herbert L. Marcy and
Policeman Paul w. Proctor testified
that Buchly, who had been White
House mail room clerk for nine years,
had removed the money from letter
which they had addressed to the Ex-
ecutive Mansion and that he had the
money in his possession, together with
the torn pieces of the letter, when he
was arrested.
Buchly, who said he once served
in the Navy and was honorably dis
charged, told the court he had never
been arrested before and asked that
he be placed on probation.
Police said Buchly had been under
suspicion for several months in con-
nection with a number of thefts from
the White House, but it was neces-
sary to employ the marked money
method of gaining evidence. 1t. Mar
cey said no attempt would be made
to bring stronger charges against the
defendant as q result Of any other
thefts occurring at the Executive

The plan is to have redectors pick
up the glare from sautomobile head
lights and distribute it over the high
way so shoulders, curves and bitches
will be illuminated, Mr.. Smith said.
On the stretches to be used as test
ing grounds, poles topped by three
