Liquor Sales Mount

Whether liked or not, and there
are many who do not relish the sys-
tenn, liquor sales at the county's lone
ABC store are steadily and rapidly
climbing month after month. Prob
ably no n single factor can pro-
vide the explanation for this, there
may be several contributing causes.
One of them, of course, is higher
taxes that have been put on liquor,
all of which apparently has been
added to the sales price. Another is
that there is more money in clrcula-
ton from diversified local industries
that are operating at capacity and
partly also from amounts trlckllng
in through workers who are draw
ing fabulous wages for helping to
construct Camp Butner.
There is the speculation, too, that
the roWdy element among soldiers
who soon will be stationed at the
new camp and who come to Hen
derson for their recreation will help
keep the cash registers ringing in
the marble front bank building.
Whether America can beat the Axis
with men given over to drink is to
be seen. and even though true enough
that unquestionably they would do
a better Job if they didn't dlssipate
their energies in this fashion, as IN
others. the fact is that they are sub
tantial patrons of cOunty-oWned
stores in localities adjacent to al
ready-existing camp areas.
Last months ABC gross was the
largest for any single month Of the
five so far this year. Each preced-
ing month of the year was also lar
ger than the one that went before,
except in the case where January
followed December. and at that
wasn't far behind. Records show. toe,
that each of the five months Of this
| year thus far are about or more than
twice the volume for the comparable
month in l94l. And for the period
the total in 1912 is right much more
than double the same months a year
ago..
So they continue to guzzle, May
be they would get it somewhere else
and somehow if they didn't get it
here, so that the moral result is
largely the same SO far as the in
dividuals are concerned. But they
are getting it here in Henderson.
For our part we can't relish with
great enthusiasm the idea Of liquor
profits financing in substantial
measure the operations and activities
of the county, but since a majority
of the voters have twice said they

,. General Sherman on April u,
1868 issued orders to all the officers
and soldiers under his command TO
respect and protect the governor and
all state and city officials as long as
no hostile act was committed by
these officials. On the advice of
friends Governor Vance had already
left Raleigh for the western part of
the State, and did not return to take
up amy official duties.
3. John Robert French, who was
elected congressman in 1868 follow
ing North Cardinals reentry INTO the
Union, came to North Carolina in
1864 following his appointment by
President Lincoln as direct tax COM
missioner for this State, He settled
III kdentOn, then in the hands of
Union forces. Immediately after the
end OF the War IN 1865 he became
active in Republican reconstruction
politics. In 1868 he was a delegate
from ChOWan county to the Candy
constitution convention, and aided IN
framing the present Constitution Of
North Carolina. Immediately follow
ing this convention the State was re-
admitted, and Ca~rpetbagger French
was elected to congress. Congress-
man French was born in New Hamp-
shire in 1919, and had done editor
lal work on a number of newspapers,
and ON the outbreaks of the War in
1861 had secured a Job IN the Treas
my Department in Washington. Died
IN Boise City, Idaho, IN 1890.
A.. A number of North Carolina
towns secured special acts of the
legislature requiring citizens to pro-
cure ladders and not less than two
leather buckets, and were required
to keep them in accessible places in
event of fires.
5. The census of 1920 gave Eden

1910 census gave Edenton 1885 as a

certainly ought to net added profits
to the county, and which many think
should be directly applied toward tax
reductions.
Tax-fixing time is upon us now.
Moreover, the public should be let
in ON the operation of this business,
which the county owns and in which
it has a legal monopoly, to the END
that it may be known to all whC

Uncollected Taxes

State Treasurer Charles Nj. John
son is quoted as saying tina: an ex-
animation revealed more than SIT
900 900 in uncollected taxes owed
10 cities and counties in the State.
which is an amount equal to the
surplus expected as of July |. next,
in the State treasury. Mr.. Johnson
thereupon urged upon local govern
ment officials that they make a
su%per-human effort now to get the
money while the getting is good.
Obviously it is impossible for any
taxing unit to get the last penny of
any annual levy. But there is reason
to believe that a good deal more
could be obtained if sufficient alert
ness We're exercised and enough
pressure applied. And when tax COL
leCtOrS fail to exhaust every means
at their disposal to get what their
agencies are entitled to, they have
not done their full duty, either 10 the
cit. or county that employs them or
to that portion of the public, for
tunately in the majority, which re
SpeCts and meets rs obligations, often
at great pain and sacrifice.
InsolVencles in some instances are
Inevitable, but there are perhaps
,,tt,n- ,,,.'nt,rn. ulNnrni,, AAltt l..,|
considerations enter DIS a deterrent
to efficiency IN gathering accounts
that could and should pe paid. Men
elected TO positions Of responsibility
should lose sight of the OBJ
legation they assume, namely, 10
serve the best interests of the public
rather than to further political for
tunes of their own or others.
For most people, about the hardest
paying they have to do is that OF
taxes, whether TO city, county, State
on nation. Yet these are obligation,
as legitimate and almost as neCes-
sary as any the individual faces.
Without them there could be no ade-
4uate government, and without
strong government few other tunC-
lions that make life worth living III
this democracy would be possible,
or certainly not pleasant.
Most citizens willingly pay then
taxes. Some cannot. But those who
can and won't do it until compelled
to pay should feel the heavy hand
of the law upon their shoulders to
require compliance. That is only tan
to honest, laW-abiding people. When
they pay and others do not, they art
carrying more than their share OF
the cost of stable government, whose
benefits are accepted and pro1ltec
from by the slackers.
This clement is perhaps ;he group
10 which the State treasurer reiels
when he appeals to local authorltie
throughout the State to gather N the
sheckles while the gathering IS good.
His advice is sound and proper ano
lust. Tax burdens could be llghtened
in many instances if the advice We're
followed.

Freuchmen Ready

Statements by AN authority with
the best of Information on conditions
in France in Washington that
Frenchmen a, a whole Wotld vel
come an invasion by Allied force
and do everything IN their power 10
cooperate With 1t are easy to be
lieve. Frcnchmen have no love for
a brutal enemy that has ONerrun half
or more OF their counsry and are
dominating the rest Of 1t through
native puppets who have betrayed
their own country and sold out to the
Nazis.
Already there have been enough
hat French fifth columnists would
spring into action the moment they
were convinced that an Allied tOrce
could hold its ground OF advance,
once a handing We're effected. Ruth
less slaughter of French citizens by
Germans IN reprisals tor attacks upon
or slayings of Nazi civilians OF
military officers OF soldiers have
served only to intensity hatred OF
the invader.
Another interesting comment by
this "authority with the best Of in
formation on conditions in France
is that the bulk of the French fleet
is at Toulon, and is under orders 'to
yield to no one, Axis o. Allied. That
is all right. SO long as the fleet is
kept out OF the hands Of the Hitler
gang, United Nations will be con-
tent to leave it unmolested.
But so long as these Warships are
convenient t. the Nazis, there is the
possibility always OF a coup by them
to seize the fleet. 1t could be so
quickly and so cleVerly executed
that French crews would hardly
have time TO scuttle their ships.
We still believe the best bet of the
Allies. if they would be absolutely
certain this formidable armada could
never be used against them, is tC
buy, bride or steal the fleet. If in
the effort the fleet were sCuttled ana
sent to the bottom by its w Of
ficcrs and men. results would be the
same. in that then it certainly could
not fall into the hands of the Ger
mans.
Moreover, there won't be much
need for Frances fleet after the war,
assuming an Allied victory, which
all of us do. There will then be nc
German or japanese menac at sea
or anywhere else to threaten free
dom of the world. And there will be
enough of the American and British
navies to. handle whatever situation
might arise.
So that if the French fleet went
to the bottom, its only loss would
be economic, not military. Why
= should not the United Nations at
tempt at least a feint and let the
Frenchmen destroy their fleet them
selves? Worse things could happen
