An Open Letter to Grange Members:

The right to vote is one of the time
honored traditions of the Grange. We
of the Grange have always stoutly de-
Tended our right to pass judgment on
bonds issued to build schools, roads and
to make other county improvements. 1t
is only proper that Public Utility Dis
trict bonds like other bond issues be re-
ferred to the people for popular vote.
For that reason we believe we are
speaking for great many members of
the Grange when we voice our own
Independent opinion that initiative 166
should be supported and passed in the
best interests of all the people. -.

Which Way?

The United States is "crying out loud"
for raw materials, and the only answers
from Uncle Sam are predictions that the
things and articles we can't locate now will
be on the markets before Spring
A new house will be easier to build in
late 1947 than at the present time because
materials and workmen will be cheaper.
The wise boys predict that along about the
same time the landlords of the country will
be on top again and raise rents.
City building lots and old houses have
perhaps reached peak prices and if you
want an old house you'll be able to buy it
much cheaper in year from now.
Land has been boom, including farm
land, That happened during the first
World War and then the crash came that
brought farm land down to the old price
levels. It will happen again.
All "wishful thinkers" loudly proclaim
their dislike for strikes but nearly all in
dustrialists hold to the belief that costs,
prices and wages must be on the same
level. l@

Representative Bob Doughton would
apply to the national finances and the
national economy the rule he used for his
own and by which he succeeded so we'll
Making campaign visit to Concord, the
Ninth district representative said he fav-
ored balanced budget, elimination of un-
necessary expenditures, curtailment of
those considered essential and policy of
reducing taxes consistent with a sound
economy.
With such a program Mr.. Doughton
has made what is probably the No. per-
sonal success in North Carolina Spring
ing from mountain soil not noted for fer
tlllty, he coaxed and demanded from it the
material things necessary where weaker,
Selt-lndulgent man would have failed en-
tirely. He was able to do this without
mlserllness, finding time and means for
sensible, gracious way of life His "chance"
was less than the average mans but he was
always solvent, always ahead.
In such program there is no place for
unnecessary expenditures or an unbal-
anced budget. The results speak for them
selves Extravaganza was a sin and a
foolish one. Mr.. Doughton cut his cloth to
lit and it turned out, naturally, to be a
fine, full garment.
The Federal government could do the
same If it were composed of Doughtons,
but they are too few. Offhand can you
think of one other connected in any way
with the government, any government

Doughton is tower of strength and force
but 1t wQuld require about 400 more like

nances from spendthrift to saving basis.

tax contributions by the highway users.
In 1910, perhaps the last normal year be-
fore the war, railway taxes, according to
the report, were $4O2, 95S, 900. In that year,
highway users, in addition to paying ST.
374,514,O 900 in special imposts for highway
purposes, paid over $755, $4,000 in general
taxes not including income, excess prof
its and social security taxes which are in
cluded in the railway figure. This bears
out the conclusion reached in the famous
Eastman report, a Government study
which proved that commercial highway
users have overpaid by millions Of dollars
every year since 1927.
Of the total of two billion dollars paid
by highway users in 1910, the second item
alone-$755, 613,0O0-is more than all the
taxes of every kind paid by all other forms
of transportation combined.
It is pulling that the railroads should
forget their own absolute dependence upon
highway transport at both ends of every
shipment by rail, and the fact that they,
including the Railway Express Agency.
constitute the largest motor vehicle flee
ownership in the World.

While he was guest recently of the

he had been asked to speak and answer
some questions from newspaper men
about the Nations production problems,

described as "at least to me quite clear"
ending with the solid observation that
everyone will be better off when "the GUS

pected to get their names on the
books before Saturday night.
In addition to the various Off
GERS for State, U. S. Congress and
county offices there will be two
amendments to be voted upon;
but so far there seems to be little
interest in these.
The first amendment is design
ed to make the Constitution
equally applicable to men and
women as to jury service, suf-
frage and in other respects. It
is commonly called the women
jury amendment" although it
goes far beyond simply permit
ting women to serve as jurors.
It's principal advocates insist that
its purpose is to fully equalize
right and opportunities between
the sexes.
The other amendment provides
for payment of $1,000 per day ex-
penses for not exceeding 60 days
of any legislative session. Mem
bers of the General Assembly
now draw $500 for the regular
biennial session and eight dollars
per day up to 20 days for special
sessions. They get no mileage OF
allowance for living expenses
while in Raleigh. It is well known
that a few members during the
past several sessions have been
able to take home any part OF
the 5000, and many have had to
draw upon private funds for ex-
penses while here.

MR.. CLIFFORD MILLER,
LANSING, N. c.
Dear Mr.. Miller:

LANSING, N. c.
Dear Mr.. Miller:
l received your letter of Oc-
tober 81, 1916, and carefully not
ed the contents. therein. There is
no man in Ashe County that has
greater sympathy for the World
War Veterans than I. I know
what it means to have part of
your family on a foreign battle
field fighting in the defense of
our country, and for my part I am
willing for them to have the best
of everything.
The laws of the State of North
Carolina set out certain qualifi-
cations for voting in any election,
and we have no power or author
ity to vary from the law. But if
you wrote the letter that you sent
me and will present yourself to
the Registrar of your township,
he will register you.
I regret that this has come
about and hope that it can be adj
justed to the satisfaction of all
concerned.
Very truly yours,
H. H. LEMLY,
Chairman Board of
Elections.
