Interest in the national economy
drive headed by Senator Harry
Byrd of Virginia is becoming more
pronounced among North Carolina
business men, according to j. Paul
Leonard of Statesville, leader of a
group in this state which is sup
porting the economy campaign.
Leonard, who is spending a few
days in this section of the state,
said last night that he sis delighted
with the interest evinced here in
Wilmington.
1T is the contention of those
whom I have the honor to repre-
sent as spokesman" said Leonard,
that the tax-paying ability of
many Of our citizens has already
reached the limit, and that it is
time for government to realize
that real patriotism can be dis
played and substantial revenue can
be found in economy, and the elm
iation of waste and extravaganza
in he spending of tax and bond
money for activities which have no
direct bearing on the war effort"
He said North Carolinians find par
ticular pride in the stand taken by
Robt. L. Doughton of
this state, who, as chairman of the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee, and vice-chairman of the spe-
,ial Congressional Economy Com
mittee headed by Senator Byrd, is
now refusing to recommend addi-
tional taxes until non-essential
government agencies reduce their
spending.
AS leader Of the economy group
and executive secretary of the
North Carolina Fair Tax Associa-
ton, Leonard has made many
speeches in the state through which
facts are given the public relative
to actual instances of waste of pub
lie funds, and much literature has
been distributed from his office, in
GLIDING reports furnished by Sena-
tor Byrd. He points out that the

The course of Danish governments
since the occupation has been to
follow policy that would at the

as possible and save the country
from complete domination by the
invaders.
The Germans exercise their con-
