of the speech was thought provok-

Representative Marvin Rich, OF
Mecklenburg: tIt-was fine speech. IF
diversion of highway funds can be
prevented without q constitutional
amendment. that will be all right. But
| am certainly very strong for what
ever it will take to prevent. diversion
Nor is there. any way l canHsee to re-
form the absentee ballot act"
Senator Lumpkin, of Franklin, also
expressed approval Of the message as
a whole. II have sometimes been call
ed an 'anti-administration candidate -
he said but that isn't true I have
never opposed Or favored any measure
just because the administration was
for or against lit. So such portions of
the governors present program as
approve I will support, and those
which which @I2do not think good for
the State l will vote against. The mes
sage certainly will be of great benefit
and help to the legislature"
Representative Bost, of Cabarrus
"A fine State, paper and as a general
program probably will be adopted"
Senator John w. Umstead, OF
Orar ge: 'The best message to legis-
iature I have heard in years. With
one or two exceptions I shall support
his recommendations"
Senator II. B. Morphew, of Jack
son: Il don't know what he means to
do with the absentee ballot law. 1t
isn't so bad now if the law is enforced
| AS for his reference to market roads,
it looks like the State could supply
these roads since the labor is furnish
/ ed free by WPA.'
Representative Richardson, of I'm
ion: "For the most part can go along
with the governors recommendations
feel very strongly that money de-
rived from gasoline and auto license
taxes should all be used on roads. AT
this time the situation has not been
made clear enough for me to say
whether I will support a constitution
al amendment looking to that end, or
depend upon statutes to take care OF
it,
DR.. T. w. M. Long, senator from
Halifax, was not interviewed, but
, your correspondent heard him say
soto voce, when the governor was
discussing the absentee ballot, tha
''his position is exactly right or
that" &
State officials, as well as legisla-
tors, were highly pleased with the
message, which had been kept more
secret perhaps than any other such
paper in long time. Secretary of
State Thad Eure said it was the best
message delivered by q governor tc

speech was the speech of man who
has the courage of his convictions.
and such man the public will al
ways respect"
Senator Balm, of Wayne: IAN ex-
cellent State paper, and one in which
| concur as to general recommends
tions l am afraid, however, that the
absentee act cannot be adequately
safeguarded. If it can be, then it may
be best to retain it. WITHOUT corni
mitting myself to the support of any
particular measure, I can ssey that I
regard the governors program as
sound and constructive"
Representative George Uzzell, Of
Rowan: tTt was thought provoking

value to the General Assembly in
solving the problems of this session

tunity to study it just what my po'

the smiling observation that "the
governors pronouncements on educa-
ton were entirely satisfactory"
1t was clearly evident to one watch
ing the joint session during the read
ing of the message, that the mem
bers of the General Assembly were
listening with more than casual at
tention. An occasional smile or frown
indicated the attitude of the parti

rently under discussion, but indicated
also that the member was really lis
