The Governors Appointments

Governor Scott s appointment:
20 State Offices are NOT making
= very good impression.
The News and Observer, which
was the Governors enthusiastic
supporter during the session Of
the legislature. criticizes severe
~ the appointment Of c. r.
Tolar, who drove Scott around
during the run-of primary last
year, as commander Of the State
Highway Patrol. The Raleigh
paper, after citing the record Of
Tolars having been arrested for
speeding in Halifax county, and
Of the affidavit by two police
officers that he had told them
be was going TO be the new High
way Patrol commander and had
tried TO persuade them 70 drop
the charge, says:
'Tolar was guilty Of violating
The traffic laws of the State. The
incident il not offset by any sug-
gestion that he has any special
training or qualifications for the
job. Indeed, almost the only
highway qualification he has is
that he drove the car in which
Governor Scott campaigned last
year =.
This is unfortunate for the
Governor, for Tolar and for the
State. II is going TO be very diff
ficult for Tolar 10 do the great
job which needs TO be done in
convincing people that law-yio-
lating driving does not pay In
view Of the fact that he was APP
pointed after he violated the
Law while expecting 10 be Patrol
commander. II will not help the
Governor in a campaign for
roads upon which safety il one
Of the most important factors. |"
And here is a comment from
Charlotte on the appointment Of
jeff B. Wilson as assistant direc-
tor Of the safety division Of the
Motor Vehicle Department. VIII
son was active in the guberna-
torial campaign last year, on the
right" side, and was calendar
clerk in the recent legislature.
@Mr. Wilson is a chubby, af-
fable fellow whose chief skill
seems TO be his ability to amuse
legisIators,' says the Charlotte
News. "Once, during the recent
session he dressed up as a plump
lady, lipstick and all, and was
escorted down to the Speakers
dais by that humorous gentle
man from BERTHE, Cousin Way
land Spruill, while the House
roared. Again, at a legislative
songfest, he laid them in the
aisles with an imitation of an
highly inebriated pedestrian
who was afflicted with an upset
stomach.
"The State safety program
took a bad enough licking from
the General Assembly when the
auto inspection law was re-
pealed. II is not going to be
helped back on its feet by the
appointment Of a speed law vio-
lator as safety director, and a
Legislative court jester as as
sistant safety director"
The character Of these two
appointments gives an ironical
flavor to an article sent to the
newspapers by the Motor We
hicle Department about Cover
nor Scott's receiving on behalf
Of the State, the first-place
award in the 1948 Southern Re-
gional Safety Contest, won by
North Carolina. Observe, this
award was for progress in
safety achieved in the vaay 1919

According to the big, hearty man himself, Ray Murphy's one claim to fame up here is that he is the only man in the Territory sporting a straw hat.
 Murphy has many claims to fame which are more plausible.
 He was National Commander of the American Legion for the 1935-36 term. He is general counsel for the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies.
 Moreover, he was chairman of the Iowa State Tax Commission in 1894 and 35, when Iowa had a critical tax condition.
 We came to the point of diminishing returns on direct taxes" said Murphy today. The effects of the depression on farm industry were such that there was practically no tax base left. We had to start taxing the in t0ngibleS.
 We worked it out through per- sonal and corporate income taxes, then a two percent sales tax. Re- alizing that we still had left loophole in the matter of out-of- state commerce, we added a use tax.
 Things worked out wells'
 Although an Iowan, Murphy mas made his home in New York City for the past 12 years.
 On his first trip to Alaska. his visit to Juneau was iorief, as he arrived Tuesday and was sched- uled out on today's flight to An chorage. He will visit Fairbanks and other parts of the Interior before returning to New York.

The Moss Point Tigers spent 80
minutes Friday night wearing
down Charley Kuhn and then,
spanked by Pat Gardner and Norm
Stewart, proceeded to score three
last-half touchdowns and a 21-0
win over their rivals from Pas
cagoula.
To say that Gardner and Stew
art played good ball is similar to
saying Citation is a fast horse.
They flashed all over the place
like Roman-candles.
Stewart gained a net las yards
in IA carries and scored the
Points final touchdown on a 25-
yard run after taking a pass from
Maggie Hammond.
Gardner Scores Two
Gardner, who is the core of the
MP ~offense, racked up two quick
ones in the third period = one on
a dilly of a 3i-yard run around
right end, the other on a l5-yard
bit of zig-zag after taking in a
Hammond pass.
But to say that the game was
easily won Is going off in the
wrong direction. The Panthers
put up g valiant battle and but
for those three Tightening strikes
played the Pointers to a standstill.
