Everyone Wants A Part
OF State Surplus Fund

, constitutional amendment which
would have allowed legislators ar
additional $40 a day for so days
for expenses was defeated by the
people.
Governor Cherry, when inaugur-
ated in 1915, asked that the SBI,
the Highway patrol, and the Blu
reau Of Identification beunited. His
efforts were tuitless in that legis.
lative session, but Cherry is dog
matte and tenacious. Sources close
to him say that he will again seek
that consolidation in 1947. If he
does, the sheriffs of the state will
oppose him, as they did two years
ago.
Some sales tax opponents are
likely to seek its abolition. The
sales tax, however, in all likelihood,
will stay in North Carolina. There
might be several minor changes
as to its enforcement.
The proposed changes in solici
torial districts, as recommended
by a special commission appointed
by Governor Cherry as directed
by the 1945 assembly, would de-
crease the number from 81 to 10,
Increase the pay of solicitors from
81, 500 to Sc, 900 a year and increase
their travel allowance from $500

could not engage in the private

though, that any changes will be
made in current laws regulating
