Fight 4-Year
Terms For
Commissioners
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
BY LYNN NISBET

Raleigh, March 17.-Considerable
opposition is being found to the bill
introduced by Representative Seeley,
of Carteret, 'by request increas-
ing terms of all county commission
ers in the State to four years. The
bill would continue in office until
1912 all commissioners now in office,
and in 1912 and quadrennially there
after they would be elected for four
year terms. There is some objection
to the four-year terms but more OBJ
lection to the Seeley bill is based up
on the wholesale legislating into Of
flee the present commissioners and
to proposed elections coming on the
same year with the election of gov
ernor and president.
In some counties there is already
difficulty in getting out the full vote
in "off years." and members from
these counties fear that if nothing
is left to vote for on those years
except members of the legislature
there will be much greater difficulty
in arousing interest.
To offset that argument, propon-
ents of the bill suggest that there
might be better mid-term legislatures
elected if the issues are confined to
legislative candidates, unencumbered
by gubernatorial and county cam
paigns.
Although there have been num-
Der of local laws passed this session
extending terms of county officers,
and legislating in office for two more
years the incumbents, there are sew
eral court decisions growing out of
the register of deeds law of 1887
which raise the question of whether
such acts are constitutional.

bloc, however, the government
counted ION its normally small but
steady conservative majority to push
the bill through the lower house to-
morrow.
The Senate was called for a ses-
sion Sunday to rush the measure to
adoption.
The cabinet also approved the
government statement OH the CEN
trail, European situation to be de-
livered in the Chamber of Depu-
ties. The cabinet communique said
merely that ''the bill would confer
on the government the powers neces
sary to consolidate and increase the
strength of France.

new money; and second, banks have
been too timid about making loans.
In not seeking intermediate and long
term business loans on the one hand
and turning them down on the otheH.
ers are probably wise.
Checking account depositors natu-
rally want to be able to use their
money when they need it. If the bank
lends it on a long-term business loan,
it may be tied up in a pasteurizing
plant for dairy farm, new wing
for factory, or new department
for store. Naturally, those borrow
ing the money for such purposes can
not repay it in three months, or a
year, or maybe in five years. Ger
tainly, they cannot repay it at a NOM
ent's notice when depositors' sudden
ly want their money. So this type of
loan, no matter how necessary it is
to the nations prosperity, is now
turned down by the banks.
Second Major Blow
Ihe decline in good real estate
mortgages was blow number two.
Formerly, big portion of banks
earning power came from real estate
financing. The collapse of the real
estate market from 1880 to 1884, plus
errors in loan judgment, showed the
folly OF commercial banks financing
a building boom. Recently, the FILA
insured mortgage plan has created
new interest in home financing by
banks, but many bankers are still
wary and are taking only the choic-
est risks. Personal loans, once scorn-
ed bankers, are avidly sought. Yet,
these can never replace the once
profitable commercial business and
only offer competition to instalment
credit loans.
Both savings and commercial
banks have always owned some pub
lie and corporate securities. never
were they emphasized as they are
now, however. The watchword OF To-
days banking philosophy is liquldity.
1t is stressed first, last and always.

she said. softly. "Beautiful!"
She and Jim would have their
first dinner in Brighton in the new
rooms, Iona planned that after
noon, as she waited for Jim on the
busy little square. She had been
shopping and her arms were ridicu-
lousy full of bundles. Steak, they
were to have. And French fried po-
tatoes, and a salad of ripe, red to-
matoes-she had noted how alb
surdly fond Jim was of tomatoes.
Then there would be a deep apple
pie chosen from the window Of a
fancy little bakery. A truly gala
meal!
Her eyes were dancing and she
was glowing with eagerness when
she caught sight of Jim's long legs
threading through the crowd to-
ward her just as the quaint town
clock on the church steeple doomed
out a cheerful three.
'Whew, girl" he exclaimed at
sight Of her. "You must have
bought out the town. What's up?"

was bubbling over. 1.-THE sweetest
little apartment, with the incest
people. It's way out on Main street,
and we're going out there for din

"And howl" He was taking the
packages in his own big arms.
They seemed mountainous now, and
Iona laughed.

she confessed. "But it's our first
meal in our own place. There were
so many little things had to get"
She was shy, suddenly. did you

denly happy and carefree.. The
walk up Main street in the summer

smelling pleasantly of food, gave
her delicious feeling Of going

her bright face darkened a little.

Reaching over, Iona clasped the
thin white hand across the table.
She wanted to say more, but some
thing in the girls face stopped her.
There was a moment of awkward
silence. Then Dinah smiled again,
a smile that was a little twisted.
