Mcleod of Cascade, providing
equal rights in public places and
employment for people of all races,
for a brief period, fitted about the
house in an atmosphere of unin-
teresting debate; then succumbed
to unacceptable defeat as a glazing
consequence to irremissible, ire
mediable qualification of over-am-
bitionists who, with childish as
sumption and Unsuitable greed of
recognition, sought to accomplish
a worthy purpose which, with
long-sighted continuity of thought
and plan might not have found
oblivion in the waste basket. Gold
en- years of experience, well-con-
certed and well-timed stratagems
found no place in the plans of
those misguided little minds.

WILLIAM |. CAUDLE
DECLARED SUICIDE
Funeral for Townsville Man
Held From Rock Spring
Church Sunday
Especially

Townsville, April 1.-THE funeral
of William L. Caudle, who commit
ted suicide Saturday afternoon at his
home several miles from here, was
conducted at three o'clock Sunday
at Rock Spring Baptist church by the
pastor, Rev S. l.. Morgan, burial was
made in the church cemetery in the
presence of a large congregation.
All the community was shocked by
the tragic death, which was clear
case of suicide, according to coron-
er's inquest held at the scene OF the
death by DR.. Hoover and other Of
ficials from Clarksville at 10 o'clock
Saturday night A shotgun was found
resting on the left side of the body,
and his right hand held stick that
rested across the body, which evil
IDENTIFY had been used to pull the trig-
ger of the gun. A hole in the left
side of the breast showed that the
entire load had been discharged thro-
ugh the heart according to DR.. Hoov-
er, passing almost through the body
Clearly death had been instantaneous
The deceased had gone to Clarks-
vile Saturday morning with his two
youngest girls, Gladys and Helen, re-
turning about 1:30 p. m. According
to his son, James l.. Caudle, soon
after dinner his father took the gun
and went out. He supposed he had
gone to shoot a hawk, and he gave
the matter no serious thought. Near
six o'clock he went back Of the house
and found his father in the position
described. He went hurriedly across
the fields to his uncle's, Tom l..
Caudle, and Gladys went for help to
the home of Willie Owen and w. L.
Mitterer, and officials were notified
in ClarkSville.
Little cause for the suicide was
known, though members of the fam
lily stated that once or twice since
his wife's death in January he had
indicated it was in his mind. The past
two weeks he had appeared unusual
ly nervous and restless, suffering
much from insomnia, and appeared
to brood over his wife's death.
Only the three youngest children
were at home, the older daughter,
Virgie, being on visit in the vicin-
ity and the second, Emma Alice, be-
ing in Henderson, where she holds
a clerical position in the office At
torney j. M. Peace. All the children
were present except Lassiter L., who
is with the U. S. Navy in the Canal
Zone. Another son, w. Ryland, ar
rived from Camp Bragg for the fun
eral.
Besides the children named, he is
survived by his brother, Tom L.
Caudle, and by three sisters, Mrs
Claude T. Robertson, Louisburg; Mrs.
Robert L. Robertson, Oxford; and
Mrs. Robert Richardson, Henderson.

Scott Given
More Money
But Few Jobs
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, April 17.-Commissioner
OF Agriculture Kerr Scott will have
more or less control over the eX-
penditure of ali additional $21O,000
during the next biennium, but de-
spite this fact he will not be able to
give out three or four new jobs at
the very most.
This is said without meaning to
intimate that the commissioner
would load up with more personnel
in view of the fact that he will have
opposition in next years primary
1t is just fact which is made
amply apparent from the conditions
and stipulatiOnS surrounding the
added funds voted by the recent leg
islature. It may also forestall charges
that political motives dominated
the commissioner in working for the
increased appropriations.
The new money came in three
separate and distinct fields. First
there is the 100000 voted for Japa-
nese BEETLE control. It was distinct
ly set out that this sum is to be
expended for the purchase of ap-
propriate pOisons for an eXtermina-
tory campaign against the insect
poets. Not even one job can be
Wangled out this money.
Then there is the $4,000 for
Bangs disease control. Here again
there isn't even a penny for pat
ronage purposes. The money must
be used to pay farmers whose stock
is destroyed in the campaign against
this dreaded cattle disease
Third and last item is the only
one from which any new places at
all may be created. That's the
$4,000 it is estimated the added
five cents per ton fertilizer inspec
