KERM0N OFFERS
BILL ON JURORS
Proposed Measure Would
Increase Pay Per Day
To Five Dollars

, Representative Robert M. Ker-
mon is keeping his promise to see
that those citizens of New Hanover
who are summoned for jury duty
in the Superior court fare better
at the hands Of the county ex-
chequer.
He introduced yesterday in the
state house of representatives at
Raleigh his bill to increase from
81 a day to S. a day the compen-
sation for jurors in New Hanover
county.
The Kermon measure was refer
red to the house committee on sal
aries and fees.
Compensation for jury duty in
New Hanover county has been 81
a day for many years, despite the
fact that the county commissioners
in their discretion might increase
the rate of pay to a maximum of
81 a day.
The Kermon bill proposes, by fix
ing a S. daily rate of pay, to go
beyond the maximum rate which
might be fixed by the commission
ers.
Reports have indicated that a
general movement is under way in
most sections of North Carolina to
pave the way for more substantial
compensation for Superior court
Jurors.

LACK
MAY HIT FARMERS
Shortage In Nitrogen Slows
Production Throughout
Nation

The governments prediction of
an acute fertilizer shortage in the
nation this spring, hit home yester-
day in an announcement by a Will
mlngton manufacturer that outside
supply forces were being asked
for aid in helping the farmers of
this area secure their needs of
this vital agricultural necessity.
Two weeks ago the warning of
an impending shortage of fertilizer
was issued from Washington. The
announcement said that the search
ty of nitrogen was the basic reason
for the shortage. s
j. M. Blass, manager of the Naco
Fertilizer Co., here, said that out
side aid was being sought chiefly
because OF ingredient shortage and
boxcar scarcity. However, he said
that the Julia B. Barnes, a small
cargo vessel, locked here yester-
day with 1900 tons of superphos-
phate for his company.
Meanwhile, a shipment Of nitrate
OF soda is expected to arrive here
within the next couple of weeks
from Chile. Fertilizer manufactur-
ers said that this shipment would
greatly alleviate the situation, and
farmers in this immediate area
probably would be able to get what
guano they may need a little later
in the spring.

Association are underway, with

pending.
H. E. Boyd, traffic manager of
the Port Traffic Association, and

stood the matter is under dis
cussion but admitted they were
not aware of the details of any
concrete action being taken at the

The two offices work in close

to combine the work of the two
organizations is to effect a solution

Along The Cape Fear

we missed a golden opportunity.
We, were on the track Of a story
that should send chills down the
spine of the most intrepid reader
of Along the Cape Fear.
It's folklore, no doubt, but we
certainly would like to hear more
about it.
1t seems that there was a ship,
calling Wilmington its home port,
which had a rendezvous with a ghost
each time it sailed down the Cape
Fear for the sea.
Our informant was not sure of
all the details and advised us to go
to our readers, whom he felt sure
could tell us the complete story.
So anyone knowing the legend OF
the boat-boarding ghost of the Cape
Fear please contact us as soon as

Attorney Outlines Views
. In Raleigh On Propos-
ed. Referendum

City Attorney William c. Camp
bell, testifying at. a public hearing
in Raleigh yesterday on the state
wide liquor referendum question,
told a senate finance committee
that it was better for revenues de-
rived from the sale of liquor to go
to governing bodies than ihto the
hands of moonshiners.
"Liquor always has been Sold"
he said, land it's better that THE
profit go to governing bodies rath
er than to moonshiners."
Campbell, in speaking against the
proposed referendum on the sale
of liquor and some types OF wine
in the state, pointed out that $780,
900 had been set up in revenues for
law enforcement in 25 counties IN
the state from ABC store taxes.
Campbell was one of five speak
ers appearing at the hearing being
conducted by the special commit
tee on propositions and grievances
Heading the opposition to the
referendum at the hearings was
Frank Spruill of Nash county. JOIN
ing the anti-election forces were
w. A. Lucas of Wilson, and Leon
S. Brassfield Of Raleigh.
Brassfield- declared that it was
a matter of local self government
for a county to- decide whether II
wants to keep liquor profits out OF
the hands of lawless elements.
Also attending the public hearings
were delegations from Wrightsvllle
Beach and Carolina Beach, the rep
resentatives of which were opposed
to the referendum sought by dry
forces in the state. Two membrs OF
the legislature, Senator George T.
Penny of Guilford and Senator l..
M. Chaffin of Harnett, have already
introduced measures designed to
force a statewide referendum on
the liquor question.
