There is even more speculation
about the attitude which Governor
to-bc J. NJ. Broughton will take to-
ward legislative drive for a state
wide referendum.
MI. Broughton has pretty general
~ been classed as dry-has been
ever since he became even moderate
~ prominent in political affairs: but
it is known that Gale K Burgess and
other leaders Of the United Dry
forces Wcrc not d bit enthusiastic
about him in the primary. They re-
garded him as quite likely to do just
what Governor Clyde r. Hoey did
in l937--Which was exactly nothing
al aIl. Ch2nccs arc they still look up
on him with that same spirit of sus-
piciOn.
mere are stories TO the effect that
Mr.. BrOughtOn is committed de-
lnIlcIy 10 a do nothing" policy if
and when the issue arises He is said
to have given several Wake county
politicians direct assurance that he
VIII take no part in any liquor con-
trOVCrsy.
There is d very general impression
that the next governor is, in fact,
reasonably well satisfied with the
status quo-certainly that he isn't
dissatisfied enough TO take up the
cudgelS and make any strong fight
one way or the other.

There's some speculation here over
genesis OF the movement for a vote
on ABC stores in Person county soon.
The county commissioners have set
Il date for the polling after getting
petitions for it.
The question agtating some RAJ
leigh folks is whether the ABC ad-
vCcateS (Who lost by some 80 votes
last time they tried it in Person)
really want another vote; or whether
the prUhiDi,ioniSts. cmbOldened by
their sweeping victory in Johnston
county. are anxious TO give another
example, under different conditions,
of what they contend is the great
dry tide rising all over North Caro-
lima.

Hatch had no objection to this
amendment since he and Senator
Byrd had joined in advocating SINH

Hatch Planning New Move.
Meanwhile. Senator Hatch re-
vealed that he is working on new
plan for further safeguarding elec-
tions by having the Treasury make
direct appropriations to the major
political parties, as complete sub
stitute for private contributions, to
finance national campaigns. He has
no intention of seeking such legisla-

The New Mexico Senator believes
that method of defraying the cost of
national elections would be cheaper
for the country and preferable to
private donations He has not per-
fected the details of how the CAM
paign budgets would be fixed and
distributed.
Other changes made in the Hatch
measure in the closing hours of the
long Senate battle were:
An amendment by Senator Brown,
Democrat, of Michigan, permitting
State employees to run for elective
offices, If they take leave without

House Committees
Posses Senate. s. to 2S;
Author Sees Changes
As Increasing Support
BY j. A. OLEARY.

The fate of the Hatch bill rested
today with House leaders, as the
measure awaited Judiciary Commit
tee consideration, after passing the
Senate late yesterday. So to %.
Designed originally to bring State
employees paid in whole or in part
from Federal funds under the ban
against political activity already ap-
piled to Federal personnel. the
measure was broadened during two
weeks of Senate debate to curb
private campaign contributions. The
Senate also adopted several last
minute amendments to ease the
effect of the politics ban in unusual
cases.
One of these late amendments,
by Senator Byrd, Democrat. OF Vir-
ginia would enable the Civil Service
Commission to restore the right long
enjoyed by Federal workers to take
part in running the municipal af-
fairs of nearby Maryland and Vir-
ginia towns in which they live. The
same privilege would be extended to
scattered municipalities throughout
the country, where a majority OF
the voters are Federal employees.
Amendments Seen As Aids.
Although some of the influential
members of the House are reported
to be without enthusiasm for the
bill Senator Hatch. Democrat, of
New Mexico predicted today that
some OF the amendments expected to
lessen the chances of enacting the
measure into law may have the ef-
feet of increasing its support.

Opposition Comes Rapidly.
Signs of stiff House opposition
materialized rapidly. Representa-
tives Celler, Democrat, of New York

Carolina. two members of the Ju-
dietary Committee. declared against
the bill. Speaker Bankhead also
announced his disapproval Demo-
cratic Leader Rayburn has been

Republican Leader Martin said it
would be dificult to get the legisla-
ton to the floor this session because
the Rules Committee might refuse
it the right of way even if the Ju-
dietary Committee recommended its
enactment. He emphasized that he
favored the bill, however.
If it clears the two committee
hurdles. Senator Hatch is confident

THE LOWDOWN
FROM HICKORY GROVE

Just about everybody seems
to have cure for the youth
problem. And when you inquire
around you will find half of those
who are worrying about our
young folks are gallivanting
around the country-and are Gre
ating a youth problem in their
own bailiwick, by neglecting
their own offspring.
So far as / can see, there is no
youth problem that requires any
mama or papa to go up and down
the country on a lecture tour. By
staying home and keeping a wea-
ther-eye on activities there, they
would solve the whole problem.
But some people like to lecture.
They are the problem versus the
youth. r e
But / reckon we could improve
a little in our schools and maybe
limp along with a few less funny,
modern theories there. A little
overhauling at our colleges might
be welcomed by our young folks
who knows? But our older
spavins-we gotta find some way
to keep 'em home.
Yours with the low down,

erS to fall back on.
Wason also stated today that
''some day Key West will have a
free court.
AS to his past experience and
qualifications for the office of
Attorney General, Mr.. Watson
listed the following:
From 1902, when he graduated
from Military College at DAN
vile, Ga, to 1909, he was in
business, chiefly to accumulate
funds for a legal education. He
was employed by the American
Tobacco Company in New Or
leans, Chicago and Tampa.
He was graduated from law
school washington and Lee Uni
versity) in 1911, with LIB. de-
gree, and admitted to Virginia
and Florida bars in the same year.
Since then he has practiced law,
chiefly in Florida, being admit
ted to all courts of the state as
well as the United States Su-
preme Court.
In 1915 he was elected to the
post of Municipal Judge of Tam
pa, serving until 1918. He was
a member of the state legislature
from Hillsboro county in 1891
and 1882. Actively supporting
all civic drives looking to the So
cial welfare and the betterment
and improvement of living con-
dltions in his community and
this state, Mr.. Watson has been
leader in that respect.
Other public offices include
that of personal attorney for the
liquidator of Florida State Banks
under the administration of J. M.
Lee, Comptroller of Florida; and
that of special attorney for De-
partment of Justice in charge of

porarily without jobs through no
fault of their own.
Industrial and business con-
Germs which employ eight or
more workers pay all the unem-
ployment compensation tax that
is paid in Florida. Consequently,
only employees of these covered
concerns are entitled to claim un-
employment compensation when
they lose their jobs.
The purpose of unemployment
compensation is to furnish some
income to insured workers dur
ing periods when they cannot get
employment because of lack of
work. Insured wage earners with
sufficient previous employment
will receive payments under GER
tain conditions and for a certain
number of weeks. These pay
mentS are not equal to the work
er's regular wages, but they will
help tide him over until he can
get back to work.
