substantial as sums of money, have
been like a few hundred gallons of
water thrown on a desert.
Tax laws have permitted cor
porations to deduct charitable con-
tributions up to five per cent of
their net taxable income for Is
years now. In that time grants by
corporations for all purposes, of
which education is only a part,
have been closer to one per cent.
Legal Paddock
BASED on figures for recent years
the full tax exemption would ex-
ceed 81, 500. .OOO, 900 - more than
the total operating cost of all pri-
vate colleges. While no one sug-
gests that corporations should
automatically make gifts up to the
legal maximum, the fact that the
maximum is so much greater than
what has been done to date does
show that in good times corpora
tons have the leeway to support
amply private schools and colleges.
One paddock on corporation
funds at present, so far as colleges
are concerned, is a legal one. The
law properly looks on men who
manage corporations as the trus-
tees of the people who own the

stock. Managers are authorized
by law to give reasonable support
to activities helping the corpora
tons business. But some state
laws are very vague about whether
giving to general education is a
justified use of the firms money.
Suppose a board of directors de-
cided to make an educational gift
that in their opinion was justified.
They could be sued by one of the
oompany's owners who held a diff
ferent opinion. If the dmectorshad
guessed wrong, and the courts
should find no reasonable direct
or indirect benefits fiowing;to the
company, they would be required
to make up the gift from their own
pockets.
FOR some Llme many Hlen WllO
work for corporations have been
aware of this hurdle. One of them,
Alfred p. Sloan, Jr., of the General
Motors Corporation, put his finger
on a principal reason. He said, IF
corporations do not intervene with
generous donations, the federal
government will by default be
given this responsibility. Govern
ment aid will mean increased taxes

Bridges Says Government
Wants to Destroy ILWU

SAN FRANCISCO, R - Harry
Bridges charges the government
wants to destroy the International
Longshoremen's and Warehouse
mems Union.
Bridges made the charge at the
unions convention Wednesday
after Frank Maxey, member Of
Local since 1889, alone opposed
resolution pledging ILWU sup
port to Bridges and former union
officers j. r. Robertson and
Henry Schmidt.
In 1850 all three were con-
victed of perjury and conspiracy
to commit perjury. A federal dis
trict court jury ruled Bridges had
lied when he swore, in obtaining
citizenship, that he was not and
never had a been a Communist.
Bridges told the 200 delegates
their responsibility was to keep
the union going the govern
ment is not concerned whether I,
Robertson or Schmidt were ever
members Of the Communist party.
They're concerned with breaking
this union"

Wilson Asks Senate Waive
Stock Disposal Rule For
Prospective Assistants

WASHINGTON, III Secretary
of Defense Wilson has asked
members of the Senate Armed
Services Committee to waive their
stock disposal rule so he can hire
two more big businessmen as top
assistants.
The Defense Secretary's move
to reopen the touchy political sit
uation seemed likely to bring flat
refusal from Armed Services Com
mittee members. Senators willing
to- discuss the matter predicted
the committee will not relent in
its requirements that defense Of
ficials dispose Of their industrial
holdings.
The law says that no federal
official shall do business with any
firm in which he has even an in
direct financial interest.

Herring Fisheries
Lag In Norway

The spring herring fisheries off
western Norway have so far been
disappointing. But the winter her.
ring season, which came to an end
Feb. Ia, was "a marked success.
Up to Feb. "a, only about 1880
tons of spring herring had been
caught along the entire west
coast, as against 10000 tons at
the same time last year. Most of
the herring was landed by METERS;
purse seiners made out very poor
ly.
Just the reverse was the case
during the winter herring fish
cries. Of the total 100000 tons
we'll over 100000 was caught by
seiners and only 10000 by METERS
Never before have the net fisher
men landed so little in proportion
to the purse seiners.
Meantime, prospects for the
northern Lofoten cod fisheries is
moot question. Going by results
attained so far, fishermen are
pesSimiStic.

Inlet has been responsible for
a great increase in sportsfishing
facilities here. Since the 1852
season, at least two new Gulf
Stream cruisers have been added
to the local fleet and two new
quays or berthing places have
been completed for accommo-
dating local and nonresident
boats which will come here to
operate in the Gulf Stream
waters which have become ma
tionally famous for big game
species of fish.
Capt. Ernal Foster owner of
the Albatross fleet of Gulf
Stream cruisers here has added
another craft, the Albatross
III. Recently launched in a
Core Sound port, the vessel is
now undergoing finishing touch
es locally prior to its maiden
trip off Cape Hatteras. 1t will be
the largest and fastest of the
already famous Albatross fleet
which in recent years has been
responsible for landing most of
the big blue marlin taken with
rod and reel in waters off Cape
Hatteras.
Another modern and fast Gulf
Stream craft is soon to be deli
vered to Capt. Edgar Styron
who will place it in Gulf Stream
service. His cruiser is also being
built by a Core Sound builder.
This season will see additional
harbor space at Hatteras. Capt
Styron's boat will be berthed

LITTLE HOPE THIS
YEAR FOR SCHOOL
ON OUTER BANKS

Discussion of the school site
for the proposed Outer Banks
school near Cape Hatteras has
been tabled to the July meeting
of the Dare County Board of
Education, following notice from
the Attorneys representing the
county that the court hearing
would not be held until April
9th.
A letter from Mrs. Raymond
Wescott, President of the Manteo
P.T.A., requested that the new
addition to the Manteo School
be named in honor of Miss
Bonnybel Evans. Mr.. Balance
moved that the Board approve
the request. This was seconded
by Mr.. Best and unanimously
carried. It was decided that the
P.T.A. should select the name.
The Board authorized the
superintendent to pay a bill Of
1920 for work done on Hatteras
School, and authorized tn e
superintendent to- place an order
with the Division of Purchase
and Contract for a truck to re-
place the maintenance truck
now being operated. The Board
voted to renew the lease on the
County School Bus Garage To-
Gated at the Airport. The Board
adjourned to meet again on call.
The Board this week awarded
bids for hauling coal to the
schools. o. Burrus of Manteo was
successful bidder, getting the
contract for $1,324. Rudolph
