PHILPOTT &. 1t is always GUS
tomary to say nice things about
someone recently departed. Some
times it isn't easy.
But with the late 1t. Gov. H.
Cloyd Philpott, there was no way
but the right way. We never heard
anyone mot even his bitter rivals
IN the race for the No. 2 office
last summer say an unkind word
about Cloyd Philpott.
On the contrary, we heard only
praise for him from David McConn-
Ell and C. v. Henkle who ran
against him for 1t. Governor. No
body disliked him. Why was this so
= in rought-and- tumble politics?
Mainly, because he was always
sincere.
Although small in stature, he
comment. He had nice eyes a strong
chin, and was a good listener. He
seemed always to be interested in
what YOU had to say. There was
nothing slow and ponderous about
him He was not the back-slapping
type.
Gov. Terry Sanford liked Cloyd
Philpott - because he was bus
sness-fiberal. He was true liber-
al.

FRAUD BY MAIL -. Some Of the
best legislation ground out by the
N. C. General Assembly never gets
much attention.
It is important ~ but just not
"newsworthy".
A good example was the rewrit-
ing of the statute having to do with
correspondence schools doing big
business in North Carolina. This
occurred during the 1861 legisla-
tive session. It is important to you.
Most schools-by-mail seem to be
all right. Some are fine. A lot of
them are worth less than nothing.
When in doubt, write the N. C..
Dept of Public Instruction in Raj
eigh and ask for a report on the
school you or a friend have under
consideration. Don't fail to do thisl
In three months this year, says
the Dept, a certain gentlemen sold
approximately 200 correspondence
courses at $50 each on how to be-
come a Civil Service employee, etc.

while the Government said
"the economically useful life
of the stallion" for breeding

Revenue Service improperly re-
classified their noted race horse
Nashua as a horse held for
breeding and gave him a long
er useful life than applicable to
horses used for training and
racing. AS a result. the depreci-
alton was less.
The suit also alleges the Gov

couple claimed when they sold
Elk Hill Farm.
Former Gov. A. B. Chandler
named the wealthy Widener
State police commissioner in
1855. The next year the post of
