BOARD REPORTS
TYPHUS CASES

Two more cases of typhus have
been reported to the Consolidated
Board of Health, DR.. A. H. Elliot:
city-county health officer, sale
yesterday.
Elliot said the reports were CIV
en- by telephone from James
Walker Memorial hospital.
These cases bring the total num-
Der of typhus cases to develop
within the past several weeks to
eight, and the total for the year
to approximately u. There are
believed to be other cases not
clinically diagnosed and reported.
The new patients are both men,
Elliot said.
Both Of them are "pretty sick"
but, as in the instance of all other
cases, there have been no COM
plica tons. There have been no IA
talities from the disease, Elliot
declared.
Typhus is contracted from the
bites of fleas coming from typhus-
infected rats.
Elliot has advanced the theory
that the destruction of rats here
through the United States Public
Health Services rat-control pro-
gram is forcing the feas to seek
hosts of second choice.

RulingsI IandedDown
.OnOffice Holdings

RALEIGH, Aug. II -'Hl- Az
torney General Harry McMullan'
said today that in. the event OF
the death, resignation or otherwise
inehgibility of a duly elected party
nominee for any elective office, the
county executive committe of the
party affected must fill the vacan-
cy.
In a digest of opinions which
touched on double-office holding,
several municipal matters and
school laws, Mcmillan ruled that
members of a district school COM
mite appointed under G. S. 1l5-
1854 must reside Within the terr1tor-
ial limits of the school district.
This conclusion, he sad is not
affected by the fact that some Of
the pupils attending the schools
in the district may come from adj
joing counties.
Other opinions.
A municipal corporation may not
levy license, franchise or pr,vil-
lege tax on railroads. Such a tax
is prohibited by Section 202 of the
Revenue Act which imposes a
franchise tax on railroads and
specifically provides that no coun-
try, city, or town shall levy a
license, franchise, or privilege tax
on the business taxed under this
section. t.-
The manufacture, possession, sale
and transportation Of the ordinary
variety of ''home brew is pro-
hibited by the North Carolina sta
tutes.
The mayor of city has no right
to carry a concealed weapon. While
the statute prohibiting the carry
| ing of concealed weapon exempts
certain officers from the operation
thereof, a mayor of city is not
one of them. r.,3
WllCIlt tIlC C1lIAC lOI lilC SOl1l-
mission of which a person is be-
ing extradited is felony, the ex-
pense Of the extradition shall be
paid out of the state treasury on
the certificate of the governor and
the warrant of the auditor. In all
other cases, the expenses of eX-
tradition shall be paid out OF the
treasury in the county in which
the crime is alleged to have been
committed.
The positions of mayor of city
and membership on the county
board of education are both offices
within the meaning of the provision
OF the North Carolina constitution
prohibiting double office holding;
therefore, one person may not hold
both positions at once.
The positions of town policemen
and alderman are both offices with
in the meaning of the provision OF
the North Carolina constitution pro-
hibiting double office holding and
one person may not hold both posi-
tons at one time.
Since the acquisition and install
lation of individual freezer-lockers
to be rented to citizens of the
municipality is not necessary ex-
pense, a municipal corporation can
not contract debt therefore with
out vote of the people authorizing
the same. This result is not chang
ed by reason of the fact that such
freezer-lockes are to be. installed
in a market house, the erection
and maintenance of which is a
necessary expense.
The county board of education
may employ a special attendance
officer whose salary is to be paid
from fines, forfeitures, and penal
ties or other funds. Thus, if the
fines, etc, are not sufficient to pay
the officers salary, the board of
education is authorized to include
in the school budget an amount
sufficient to cover the salary of
such officer.
