Here 1t Is Again

The unemployment office IN Ra-
leigh makes public its figure for the
end OF April. showing that to that
date more than Sl4,000,O00 in bene-
fits To North Cardinals unemployed
workers had been paid. The period
covered % months of the operation
of the unemployment found.
During than t.me receipts reached
S34.956.4 O5.42. all OF it contributed
by employers. except 1892, 1885 in
interest. This leaves a balance OF
S2O.942. 237.O3. From S75O,000 to
100000 OF the total will be turned
over to the railroad retirement fund.
But what has always been so
mysterious about the whole set-up
is this tremendous reserve that is
being accumulated. already close to
double the amount that has been
paid out.
It's just another contribution to
the ravenous appetiteS OF taX-eaterS
in these modern times upon which

OTHERS VIEWS
PREDICTS WINNERS

10 the Editor:
The woods are full OF political
nr,phcts these days and some OF
tncm are 50 cNtravagant in the
.ctajm, they are simply ridiculous.
rbc following predictions are made
latter visiting ninety five counties IN
the state at least once and several
of the larger counties number Of
times.
Hon. \. j. Maxwell will be the
next governor Of North Carolina. He
.wjlL come TO Raleigh from the east
with a clear majority over the field.
He will get 4 good vote in Raleigh
and Wake county, but will not carry
Wake county. He will carry sixty
four and possibly siXty-eight coun-
ties in the first primary and he will
be the high man. He and Hon. J. M.
Broughton Will oppose each other IN
the second primary, Maxwell win
ming. Maxwell has been the leading
candidate ever since the contest
started and his campaign has never
fallen 10 second place. He has more
than an even chance in the Piedmont
section. and west of Salisbury he will
have a majority Of the votes cast.
The vote in the state will be ap-
proXimatcly four hundred thousand
and Maxwell will get from one hum
drCd and thirty-liVc to one hundred
and fifty thousand in the first pri-
mary. Broughton will get from one
hundred to one hundred and twenty
five thousand votes in the first pr
mary.
The campaign so far has been very
free from any form Of mud singing.
The promising industry has been go
ing full blast night and day ever
since the beginning of the contest,
and the laudation that has been
heaped on Governor Hoey by all the
candidates has transcribed anything
that ever happened in North Caro-
lima It is such magnitude that it is
calculated to turn the head of a
weaker governor than Clyde R. Hoey.
EN-Speaker Reginal Harris will be
the winner in the contest for lieu
tenant governor and Wayland Spruill
will give Kerr Scott real run for
his money.

Again, Register

Leaders in both political parties
in this county are much disturbed
by the indifference of so many citi-
zenS about registering for the APP
preaching primaries. While some
hundreds OF names were enrolled
last Saturday, the total so far, not
known precisely, is much too small
for comfort and for an adequate eX-
preston of voters at the polls.
Further preachments on the neces-
sity for registering so that one may
be qualified to vote should be I'M
necessary. But there are real fears
that unless citizens are aroused
many of them will be unable to have
voice in the selection of the next
governor and other officials of the
State, and county, come primary
day May 25.
One of the most realistic threats to
the continued successful functioning
OF democracy as we have known il
in America is contained in this in
difference toward the ballot box.
Certainly those who refuse to take
part in elections cannot justifiably
criticize the selections of those who
do vote in setting up our official
structure.
The American citizen has no high
err privilege aS such than that OF
expressing his will at the polls. And
when he fails 10 exercise that right
he is deprivjng himself of provi-
sion that men have fought and died
for, and which countless millions OF
men and women throughout the
world would be glad to have. The
man who is so indifferent about the
conduct Of his government is not as
good a citizen as he might be if he
were to exercise the privilege vouch-
safed to him by the State and the
nation.
If you have not already enrolled
for the primary election, don't wal
another day. Get your name on the
book and then go back to the poll
ing place on May % and vote youl
preference for every office that ap,
pears on the ticket. It is your privi-
lege and your duty.
