The Causes OF Fire

According to a survey by the National
Board of Fire Underwriters, based upon
claim records covering a five-year period,
three out of four fires start from causes
involving carelessness, inattention, or plain
accidents Most of these fires could be
prevented by good housekeeping and eau
tious habits.
Almost 80 per cent of fires result from
careless use of matches and smoking ma
terials. More than 10 per cent are caused
by defective electric wiring and appli-
ances-misuse Of that great servant, cleo
tricity. Over % per cent stem from lack
of care in the use of cooking and heating
equipment. And more than II per cent
are the result Of carelessness with open
lights and inflammable liquids
Here is a tragic tribute to American
careIessness, indifference and plain lazi-
ness which will cost US some 10000, 000
in property values and more than 10000
lives this year. Failure to replace a dollar
light cord may destroy $4,000 home and
its occupants with it, The kind of "econ-
Omy' that prevents us from calling the
furnace man when the heating plant acts
up may result in a holocaust And the
housewife who uses gasoline to clean her
clothes at home is inviting complete dis
aster.

The Stamp OF Peace

Today a new three-cent stamp is to be
released to mark the centenary OF the
birth of Joseph Pulitzer Q847-191D news
paper proprietor and editor, will be purple
in color and Of the formal of the special
delivery stamp. In an oval at right will be
Philately's first likeness of Pulitzer with
his name and 1847 and 1947 underneath in
dark modified Gothic.
AS tribute to the newspaper publish
ing business is a centered inscription, in
the same style of lettering, reading "Our
Republic and It's Press Will Rise or Fall
Together" in four lines against back
ground of the Statute of Liberty and suns
rays Along the base are &c" and United
States Postage" in white Gothic.
Postmaster General Robert E. Hannegan
points out that lit was through Pultzers
efforts that funds were raised for the
erection of the pedestal on which the Stat
ute of Liberty rests and which to this day
throughout the world is symbol of hope
and opportunity 3 *The quotation on the
stamp is by Pulitzer and expresses his
conviction that free press and Gov
eminent based on the principals of democ-
racy are inseparable."
1t is very fitting that this stamp be
issued at this time when the freedom Of
the press as is democracy is questioned in
some countries of the world.

Plans For Schools

The newly appointed county board Of
education will have an opportunity this
year to make some long-range plans for
the Improvement of our schools. During
war years there was no possibility of ex
ecuting such plans; but it is now time to
look ahead for improvements that are to
be made in the next few years.
Few of our high schools of the county
are sufficiently large enough to set up
vocational agriculture departments in
them. And this is a subject that is badly
needed to be taught in this county.
We believe that there should be more
consolidation. It may mean change in
some of the districts. But it must be re-
membered that the present districts were
outlined some years ago. Since then we
have had road Improvements. Additional
bridges across streams have also changed
however, that the consolidation program
should be carefully studied by members OF
the board and such steps then taken that
will mean the most good to the greatest
number OF children. Attendance trans
portation, buildings and equipment should
all be considered and plans made for fu-
ture development. Some Junior high
schools may be the answer. There are a
number of factors that enter into the pic
ture and all these should be weighed in
the light Of their Importance to the school
system of the county. Let's start now
toward improving our schools.

increases of approximately 80 per
cent for public school teachers
and about 20 per cent for other
State employees. Public school
appropriations for the biennium
total $128,000,OO0 with about
S102,000,000 earmarked for teach
ers' salaries.
The spending measure aIlocat-
ed a total of $117,761,968 from
the highway fund for highway
construction, and S2,138,323 from
the agriculture fund.
Revenue Funds
The Governor, as director Of
the budget. estimated that The
States general fund revenues for
the biennium would total $780,
l72,6O0 compared with approp!i~
atoms Of S19I,692.725. This ap-
parent deficit would be met with
a surplus of S6,57O.664 expected
at the end Of the current fiscal
year, leaving the general fund
in substantial balance"
From the general fund surplus
row on hand the Legislature APP
propriated $48432, 255 for its per
manent improvements program,
S70O0,00O for an emergency sal
airy bonus now being paid teach
ers and State employees, $780,
! 600 to boost the postwar reserve
fund to $30,0O0O00 and $1,500,000
for the purchase and develop
ment Of Camp Butner, part of
which is to be used as a new
! hospital for the insane.
Highway safety legislation en-
acted by the General Assembly
includes a financial responsible
ity measure and an act to require
mechanical inspection of motor
vehicles, periodic resistance of
drivers licenses, a 55-mile-an-
hour speed limit on State high
ways, and stiff penalties for vio-
lation of the traffic laws.
AS finally passed, only one in
spection fee of ST will be charg
ed through 1949 and thereafter it
will be rs cents per inspection.
Under the Financial Respon-
sibility Act, a motorist must fur
nish proof of financial response

Alcohol Debated
Many legislative days were TAX
en- up with debate on the issue
of alcohol. Three measures were
introduced calling for State
wide referendum on the subject.
Two were killed by the Senate
Finance Committee and a third
received it's death blow from the
House Committee on Propositions
and Grievances.
More than tWo-ScOre measures
were introduced to deal with
wine and beer. Some Of them
called for elections in various
counties to outlaw the two beV-
erages. Others would have pro-
hibited wine and beer in num-
Der of townships or in the vicin
ity of schools and churches.
Most of these measures were
securely locked in finance COM
mittees of the two houses until
Representative Odus Null of
Cleveland succeeded in attaching
to the revenue measures an
amendment to dry up beer and
wine sales in Cleveland county.
For agreeing to remove this rid
err from the revenue bill, Null
won support for bills to prohibit
wine and allow local regulation
of beer in 20 counties. These
measures sailed through the
House, but were killed by the
Senate Finance Committed.
Wild Life Club
The most effective lobby seen
in Raleigh in many years, the
N. c. Wildlife Federation, brought
terrific pressure to bear upon the
lawmakers and won a battle to
divorce the Division of Game
and Inland Fisheries from the
State Department Of Conserva-
ton and Development. After
July l, an independent State
agency. the Wildlife Resources /
Commission, will administer the
program to protect the States
