Brigadier General Frank T

Federal workers, indorsing more
than $4,000 workers as eligible

The official explanation OF the
Civil Service Commission follows:
1--WE cannot comment on such
announcements until after Sep
tember 24-the date set by the
President as the deadline for us
to remark about Civil Service
blanketing. We intend to con-
solidate all cases from the sew
eral Government departments,

we shall make known our find
ings.
Under an executive order, 1t
has been arranged for us to in
Quire as to which position shall
be acceptable for Civil Service,
for example, attendants. nurses
and other employees at Mount
Alto and similar institutions.
ut is probable that many
other Government agencies have
numerous employees in similar
categories and it is likely that
no definite determination as to
their status will be decided upon

HOLY LAND FACTS

Rev. ]. A. Jones, pastor Of the First
Presbyterian church, spoke to the
members of the Rotary Club last
evening on the Holy Land, giving
giving much interesting information
of the section. Mr.. Jones visited the
country few years ago.
The program was in charge of S. T.
Peace
The speaker related that Palestine
was SO small one could stand on a
mountain on a clear day and see the
entire country. He described the land
as almost barren, saying any one liv-
ing in eastern North Carolina, where
there is abundant growth, would think
they were living in a desert if they
were in Palestine. Rev. Mr.. Jones told
many interesting things of the places
mentioned in the Scripture that he
visited
George A. Rose, Jr., was named vice
president and to the board of direc-
tors, succeeding D. L. Cannon who

NEXT COURT MIGHT
CLEAR UP DOCKET
Judge Parker Will Aim At
That At Term Start
ing January 8

When Judge R. Hunt Parker, of
Roanoke Rapids, comes here on
January to hold the regular one
week term of criminal court he may
Gear the entire docket before the
end Of the week, Clerk of Superior
Court E. o. Falkner said today.
About a dozen cases Of more or less a
minor character were left at the spe-
c;al term of criminal court held here
the week of December II, and which
WIS presided over by Judge Parker.
Very few cases have made the jan
uary superior court docket during
the holiday period thus far, and I'M
less there is great flood of law vio-
lations to clutter the calendar in the
next ten days, there is good reason
to suppose that all of them can be
written off as disposed of during the
week of court early next month.
It will be the third term of super
ior court in succession that Judge
Parker has held in this county, and
the fourth within the space of year.
He presided at a special term last
February, and also at the regular
October term this fall, and then the
special term this month
1t has been several years since the
criminal docket was entirely cleared
in this county. Some important cases
have been tried during 1888, including
several homicide charges. Many
years in the penitentiary have been
melted out to defendants convicted.
