(JJ DAILY DISPATCH, THURSDAY, MAYS, 1932 ” CLAIM MORRISON IS MAKING GAINS (Continued from Page hibltion plank seems to hr more pop ular than in any other part of the State. The more ardent Reynolds support ers believe that he really has a chance to be high man In the first primary and get more votes than Morrison, though none of them believes Rey nolds can actually get a majority. But the more conservative political obser vers agree that Reynolds cannot hope to do more than be second man lb the first primary. There is no doubt, too .that there are many Democrats in the State who are going to vote for Reynolds in the first primary, in order to cast a protest vote against prohibition, in the belief that he can not be more than second in the race, but who will vote for Morrison in the second primary. While they like Reynolds' stand in ooehlon to pro hibition. they at the same time feel that Morrison is more experienced, has more prestige in Washington and in the final analysis will be o# more service to the people of the State in Congress than would Reynolds, ac cording to reports reaching here. "The size of the vote Reynolds Is going to get U going to surprise every body in the State except his own sup porters. and especially is going to sur prise Morrison " said a man here to day in eloee loach With the situation in Eastern North Carolina and a Rey nolds supporter. "However, it b also a fact that I have heard a good many say they are going to vote for Reynolds in the first prtmary as a protestant against prohibition, who admit that they will probably vote for Morrison in the second primary.” There is no doubt, of course, that Morrison has been in hot water as a result of his attitude toward imme diate payment of the soldiers' bonus to the war veterans and that the tem perature of this water has been in creased within the last few days as a result of Morrison's controversy with the Veterans of Foreign Wars, in which he denies he has ever stated his stand on the bonus and in which the veterans say he promised to sup port it. ‘However, with indications pointing more and more against the passage of this toll in Congress, it may not embarrass Morrison as much as some had thought. Frank D. Grist is also making con siderably more headway than many thought he would, according to ob servers. and may surprise every one but himself in the number of votes he may get. However, opinion here is that he is considerably overplaying his hand in issuing so many chal lenges to MoTrison for joint debates and is makin it more and more plain that he is issuing these challanges for political effect and little else. As result there are few who believe that Grist can muster as many votes as Reynolds or that he can do more than run third. Tam C. Bowie has made very little progress recently, especially in the east and the consensus of political | opinion here is that Bowie cannot i hope to do more than run fourth. Most people seem already to have I forgotten Arthur Simmons, of Bur lington. the fifth candidate in the race who "popped in” at the last min ute and then "popped orut” almost as quickly. As ominous as the opposition to Morrison looked for a time, the con viction seems to be growing that the majority of the Democrats, after look ing over the entire field, are turning 1 back to Morrison as the best fitted for the job.

State Ready To Pay Off Hu|« Bond Installments Within Next Few Week* (Amtfttuea from Fege One.) facts and figures and show what North Carolina has done within the pant three years to set its financial affairs in order and balance Its budget that no difficulty will be ex perienced in securing a renewal on the $6,030,000 in notes. Os this bloc of notes. $3,800,000 falls due on May 28. while the remaining $2,336 ,000 does not become due until July 15, according to Treasurer Sted man. It will be remembered that the $3,800,000 was borrowed by the Statr last December in anticipation of re venue from then until June 30 of this year, the end of the present fiscal year. At the time this money was bor rowed on thene notes it did not ap pear like that the State would be able to borrow any more money at any price, or that it would be possible to renew these notes when they ex ptred. Money conditions have since improved somewhat, however, as has NoTth Carolina's fiscal condition, as a result of the economies put into effect since last December. With the result that little difficulty is expect ed in getting a renewal on these notes. Six months ago it was expected that the State would have to pay this $3,800,000 when it c&ine due bay 25. But now, since it appears likely that the notes can be renewed, and in view of the fact that the State is fac ing a deficit this fiscal year of about $3,000,000, it has been decided to re new them. "It would put such a burden upon the State and cause such depletion of the revenue needed to carry on the necessary service of government to pay these notes at this time, that it has been decided to renew them in stead,” Treasurer Stedman said. "In fact, with conditions as they are now, it will probably be necessary to carry this $3,800,000 in notes and the $2,- 230,000 in notes due July 15, which were issued to fund (he deficit of the last biennium until after the 1933 General Assembly so that it can pro vide some way to fund them, pro bably with a bond isseu.
