NEW YORK, Nov. 10. (UP) -
The New York boxing commission

day and ruled, instead, that the

Big Gain in Travel Busi-
ness Shown in Gas
Consumption

RALEIGH, Nov. 10,-Visitors
and vacationists spent more than
$60,OOO,O00 in North Carolina
during the fiscal year from June
so, 1887, to June 80, 1888, ac-
cording to study just completed
by the division of state advertiS-
ing, it was announced today by
director Il. Bruce Etheridge of
the department of conservation
and development. This is the same
fiscal year during which the state
for the first time carried on it's
nationwide advertising program
under the direction of the conser-
vation department. There are def
mite indications that this adver-
tising program helped materially
to increase the travel business in
the state during this past year,
Director Etheridge said.
Estimates made last spring
were that the travel business for
this past fiscal year would amount
to at least S50,0O0,0OO. But these
new figures, based both upon gas
oline consumption and actual
counts of visitors to the Great
Smoky Mountains National park,
indicate these early figures were
too conservative and that visitors
to North Carolina spent at least
$10,000,00O in excess of these es-
Inmates.
A total of 3SS,522,OOO gallons
of gasoline were used in North
Carolina for the fiscal year 1887
80, according to the records of
the gasoline tax division Of the
department of revenue. Taking
the national average Of II miles
per gallon for both passenger
cars an dtrucks, motor vehicles
travelled total of 4.662,264, 900
vehicl emiles in North Carolina
during the past year. i
Since IS per cent of all the gas
oline consumed in North Carolina
is used by passenger cars, 252,-
$4,000 gallons were used by
passenger cars ana % per cent OF
1876, ,9S2,700 gallons were used by
trucks.
Some of the facts learned from
a study of these gasoline con-
sumption figures for the year
1937-38 are as follows:
A total of 454,200 passenger
cars from other states visited
North Carolina. .. ...-
These 454,200 cars contained
1,362,600 persons, taking the ma
tional average of three persons to
a car while on tour.
These 100000 visitors spent |
SCI, ,319,700 while in North Caro-
lima, assuming that each remained
in the state six days (the nation
al average is seven days. and
spent $3.50 a day. (The average
expenditure by tourists is SO a
day for the nation as a whole;
according to the American Au-
tomobile association.) '.N"E |

The 100000 passenger cars
owned and registered in Nortn
Carolina, on the basis of using IA
miles to a gallon lthe nationai
average) and an estimated traIei ave-
of 5000 miles year WITHIN on .ne
state, travelled total OF Z'4oo'-
90 car miles. ,ou,
Passenger cars from both
North Carolina ard other states
consumed enough gasoline, at an
average of Ia miles to gali,on'
to travel 3,535,55O,2OO car miles.
The difference between the
car-miles travelled by North Car
olina cars and those from other
states indicates that outl of-state
cars travelled 1,135,55O,2OO car
miles.
state car travelled $500 miles
while in North Carolina, the num-
ber of car miles travelled py
these cars shows that 454,2OO pas
senger cars from other states
made this mileage. e,
Using the figures derived from
the traffic count by the Natlonal
Park service in the Great Smoky
Mountains National park for the
past park year the following facts
are obtained:
A total of 694.634 persons Wis
tied the park during the past year.
Assuming that 675,000 of these
were from states other than
North Carolina and that this
number represents only half of
those who visited the entire state,
the total number of visitors
to l350,000.
These 100000 visitors spent
a total of $60,750,O00 while in
North Carolina on the basis Of six
DAYS in the state with an average
expenditure of $3.50 a day.

Reconstruction Proved
Johnson's Downfall

lH weeks after his second in.
auguration, Lincoln was .shol
IN Ford's Theater, Washington
and to Andrew johnson fell the
staggering task of reconstruction
m Americas tragic era" 1t was
% prove a catastrophe for one OF
me most able and courageous men
ever to enter the White House.
For hardly had johnson moved
70 carry out the policies of Lin
ooln when he found himself torn
between a demand for reprisals
On one hand and a pressure for
Ieniency toward the south on the
other. Johnson chose to favor
he south TO cement the Union.
Almost at once he fastened to
bring Virginia back into the
Union, and soon after he brushed
aside all regulations restricting
trade with the secessionist states
He proclaimed general amnesty to
nearly all Confederstes and pre-
pared the way for provincial gov
ernments in southern states.
All of which ensnared the
President in bitter quarrels with
his northern advisers. In succeed
ing months johnson vetoed much
of congressional reconstruction
legislation and finally replaced
Stanton as secretary of war. The
upshot was a trial to impeacf
the President. The vote was
guilty, IS; not guilty, 10. and
since a two-thirds vote was nec-
essary to convict, johnson was
acquitted. But his political sta,
had set. Not for many years were
the temperate historians to jus.
tify his course. Johnson i,

Chairman John j. Phelan of the
commission warned Caplln: New
York State did not recognize Hos
tax as champion, and it does not
recognize Krieger. Hence this six
months business has no bearing on
the case. We are giving krieger
a chance to defend his claims"
Phelan emphasized that Apos-
toll had beaten four champions in
over-the weight matches: Brouil-
lard, Thil, Risko and Steele, in ad-
dition to walloping Krieger twice.
He is the commissions No: l con-
tender. Corbett is Apostoli's title
opponent because Corbett beat
Apostoli in a 10-rounder at San
Francisco in February.
Apostoli and Corbett signed
commission contracts yesterday
for their "title" brawl on Nov. 18.
Provisos stipulate that each will
defend the title against krieger
in case of victory. Also $4,000
will be taken from the winners
purse and be posted with the COM
mission guaranteeing such meet

bout on or before Nov. %. Krie-
ger and the winner will receive

Caplin and Krieger insisted that
they would not change their minds

Judy's insides felt cold. She

first, that he simply had to obey
the call of duty. Any girl in her

Marvel would be at the Coro-

Judy thought. All the highest

there, and Navy parties frequent
