 City Government set-ups, like any public endeavor, are complex Every penny spent, for whatever service rendered, must be account ed for. And under the proper heading.
 We have already mentioned the dock fund, the street and harbOr fund. There is also the water and sewer fund and the general fund.
 Under the general fund, revenue IS collected from property taxes. This item alone yielded $216,948.- II. Other sources included locally collected licenses and permits, cerCa-n business and non business licenses and permits, fines and for;eituges, mainly from the City Magistrates court, and revenue from other agencies. Two items alone in the latter category namely, alcoholic beverage license refunds and business license re- funds yielded SPA, 1856.
 The business of keeping the City clean and healthy is paid out of this fund. Garbage collection ser vice nets $26, 30 year. In turn

vacation motor trip. If, on the other hand, your pet is afraid, or is prone to car sickness, he may be happier left with friends or boarded at kennels, even though motion sickness pills or aranquilizers prescribed by your veterinarian may relieve most of the problems.
 Regardless of what type trav. eler your pet is, here are some tips to make motoring more pleasant for all concerned.
 Make him sit in the back seat. It's safer for the driver. Don't let him hang his head way out the window, as the constant rush of air may irritate his eyes. Try to stick to his regular feed- ing schedule and stop often enough to give him a run. Carry water with you so the dog can be given a drink when you stop or in an emergency.
 Never leave your pet in a closed or partially closed car in hot weather, for the interior heats up rapidly. Fresh oxygen laden air can't enter and your dog may suffocate.
 Be sure he's wearing all the proper credentials :. license tag and name tag with your name. address and phone number, In ease he Strays.
 You should have your dogs pillow or blanket along for sleeping. If he's youngster or not too well trained, you should lave a travelling case or crate Sin which he can be confined at stopovers.
 Feeding Tip: To simplify Seeding while travelling. take along a top grade of commer. aially prepared dog food such as Frfsaxies. The dry type may bs served @. is. or water may be edded. For the canned varietvs aeo yesa need ig acan epeusus

Population Variation Eases
John F. Kantner of the Gen.

sia's population now exceeds
this country's by only IS per
cent as compared with As per
cent before World War II. This
resulted mainly from Russia's
war losses. Females outnumber
males by 20 million, he said.
He estimated that the num-
Der of Soviet men of military
age will remain relatively sta
tionary over the next is years.
He added that "the present
numerical superiority which the
USSR has relative to the
United States will decline from
about IL million to about 3.5

Another projection indicated

industrial growth will proceed
more rapidly in the Soviet

United States toward choking

1.-THE Soviet system has made
clever use of both knout and

tinues, the balance of economic

Education and particularly

Joseph S. Berliner of Syracuse

and the standards of admission

the USSR."
Management Skill Vital
Prof. David Granick of the
Carnegie Institute of Tech
nology emphasized that future
industrial growth in both coun-
tries depends on "the level of
management skill and organi-
cation" as much as on natural
resources, labor skills and
financial investment for ex-
pansion.
There is a considerably
higher proportion of college
graduates among Soviet than
American managers. he said.
Soviet college education pro-
Vides a f1rmer factual basis but
a weaker analytic training. The
total Russian tradition is
more theoretic, but the Soviet
industrial manager. after his
school years, is more prone to
do general reading than is the
American manager.
Russian managers have an
early, heavy dose of work
directly in production. BY and
large, this is not true of the
American managers. Since
Russian top management is
completely dominated by grad
uate engineers, Soviet engineer
ing should be even more recep-
tive to new chronological ideas
than are American firms"

SON THINGS r BETTER NOT SAID
THE TYPE OF case like the @BonsoIea case should never
be repeated in these Islands. Here is a professional man APP
plying for a license to practice his profession, but before it is
all over the very medium through which he is to be licensed
becomes the one around which publicity reyolves and dis
agreement prevails.
H LAYNAN, knowing little Or nothing Of what is
technically involved, must depend for his enlightenment upon
which he reads and hears. But this is no matter which in the
first place should have been given publicity. Professional
boards cannot afford to become involved in publicity, especi-
ally Of the kind which points to dissension among their mem
bers. This can only serve 70 weaken their very purpose.
EXAMINING BOARDS, be they pharmacy dentistry,
law, accounting, or what, owe a sacred duty to the public, not
the least Of which is to maintain the highest level Of prof
cheney and evidence Of cooperation and unaniminity in their
actions affecting the public.
THESE BOARDS HAVE a kind responsibility which.
places them in a most delicate position. Confidence, there
fore, must grow out of their actions and deliberations, for it
is they who must pass upon and maintain the highest level Of
professional practice in the community.
is OF. concern here IS not what went into the
examination, on how, but the fact that basic rules and regu-
lations were being attacked publicly by the members them
selves. 1t would have been so much better had not the first
word reached the public
BUT THERE is another side to ii. Those men and wo-
men who come up for examination by the boards should not
be put in the position where their applications become matters
over which there is pickering i, for example, the full board
Is to conduct an examination, then let The full board do it.
On the other hand. if less than the full board may conduct an
examination, then that too, should be clearly understood and
adhered to.

HELP FOR AGED

Governor Luther Hodges has de-
signated the week of July 1918 as
period for special attention to the int
erests, needs and problems of the ag-
ed in our state. The Governor has urg-
ed all North Carolinians to observe
this week in all appropriate ways
which will bring added happiness,
health and welfare to our citizens who
are Us and over.
North Carolina now has approx
mately 100000 persons in this age
group and the number is increasing ut
a rate of ariund $500 year. In Amer
lea ID million persons have reached
their golden age" and l2 millions
more are becoming senior citizens ev-
cry year, as better health care length
ems life expectancy.
The need for improved health pro-
lection for these persons 65 and over
IS recognized as one of the foremost
needs facing our state and nation to-
day. 1t Is therefore encouraging news
that the Hospital Care Association of
Durham has come out with a new SEN
Tor Citizen Blue Cross certificate
which will help to meet this need in
North Carolina. What the Governor
asked for, Hospital Care Association
has provided
This new disqualification, surgical

health. The cost is about 20 cents a
day per person.
Hospital Care Association has al
ways recognized the special health
needs of the aged and has provided
the opportunity and encouraged all
subscribers to continue their Blue
Gross protection, regardless of age.
Now, by extending an opportunity to
enroll to those who are past 65, the
Durham plan has demonstrated in
positive way its determination to help
solve growing social problem in
North Carolina and perhaps set an ex-
ample for other states to follow.
People who are 65 and over urgent
ly need reliable health protection. Ad-
vanclng age is generally accompanied
by a higher frequency of serious ILL
ness requiring considerably more hos
pltal and medical care than is the case
among the younger segment of the
population. The new Hospital Care
Senior Certificate will give people in
this age group the kind of protection
needed.
The big concern is protecting those
members of our Senior Society who
are living on limited incomes from en-
ployment, retirement programs, or So
cal security. While they are self-sup-
porting they are not able to meet hea-
Wy unexpected hospital and medical
expenses. These are the people who
need voluntary prepaid health care.
10 them the new Hospital Care Senior
citizen program is indeed a gondsend.
