" ‘With a war-expanded industrial and credit structure, clearly the end of the world conflict was a time to halt and analyze fundamental facts. “ ’Rather we chose to proceed with our abnormal production. “ ’A vast system of intalment credit ■prang Into life, aided by the federal reserve system. “ Tt was a logical development that anticipated profits should be capital ized, as anticipated production and consumption had been capitalized— and that the Federal reserve system should finance this capitalization of anticipated profits. All this brought the country to a point where tjie individual was llv ihg .beypnd his rbeans, and speculat ing. in the nopq that he could make enough to pay his debts when they come due’.” “ The geniuses who presided over this defiance of economic laws were the world’s greatest financiers and industrialists. They presently realized that optimism could not forever serve as the basis of a constantly expand ing credit. ‘“ln 1928 they decided that a re adjustment was imperative. Since then the machinery to per fect this accomplishment has been in full force and effect. Commodity prices are being reduced practically to the 1913 basis. Wages are being reduced through the creation of a labor surplus, by the slowing up of production.’ ” That, said the Pennsylvanian, "was my forecast. It is still In pro cess of fulfillment. “Within a year, at the present rate declining national income and rising costs of government, as money’s value advances, will balance one antoeher; the crash will come.” Can it be averted? By restoring Its purchasing power to American agriculture,” nodded the congressman. ~ Through currency inflation? ‘No, said the representative, “that would be bad economics. ‘‘lt should be accomplished through a complete revelation of reserve board manipulations; by a treasury investigation, uncovering all tax evas ions. followed by collection, wiping out the deficit; by full publicity, con cerning transactions in and out of the treasury’s back door—the Reconstruc tion Finance Corporation, the moet powerful body ever created.” Highway Commission Will Urge Beautifying Roads (Continued from Page One.) get the cooperation of as many out side organizations as possible to help in the observance of this day. ‘‘ln addition to our entire main tenance force, an enormous force of volunteers should be recruited from the various schools, colleges, farms chambers of commerce, women’s clubs and other civic organizations and in dividuals, ’ the bulletin to the various division engineers states.

A mighty out pouring of workers must be secured. This means that every direct engineer is to carry a heavy responsibility on that day and that he must lay his plans carefully in advance. He must first plan a full day's work of tree planting for ail his maintenance for ces and then plan the work of the volunteer forces, keeping them separ ate and apart. Thousands of trees must be provided, equipment needs studied an dthe various projects de finitely located ln advance.” In the first part of the bulletin, the highway commission says: . “The State Highway Commission, realizing that beautiful highways will be a tremendous asset not only to the State as much, but to every etlzen. industry and business, has decided to take so far as it can, an active part in the general promotion of highway beautification and roadside planting. the ..desire of t,he commission tHai -ftr employes encourage highway beaaitificatloh -.in every • way possible and whenever an opportunity pre sents they should invite pro perty owners, civic 'organizations, gar den clubs, county, township and muni clpal authorities, bus companies, ser vice station operators and others, to enter enthusiastically into this pro gram.

BRUMMITT RULING OF FAR REACHING IMPORTANCE NOW (Continued from T*age One.) entire eight months required for a standard high school, that others wise might not have been able to retain the extended term.” Dr. Allen said. Several counties, especially Bladen and Columbus counties, had inquired whether it would be possible this year not to levy any taxes in the special school tax districts for the extended term, according to Dr. Allen. As & result he asked Attorney General Brummitt for the formal opinion that was given Saturday night. In this opinion, Mr. Brummitt held that, since the special tax for Yhe school districts had been vot4d by the people, these tax levies could not be removed or ignored unless voted off either by the people or by an act 6f the General Assembly, and that hence sufficient taxes would have to' be levied in these districts to operate the kchdols’ f qF' *h(*’ except ln the case off Schools, in which case the amount of the tax levy might be reduced and the schools operated for a term of less than six mofiths. "The General Assembly has not passed any act abolishing these dis tricts or removing or revoking their special taxes, nor has it conferred power to do so upon any other offi cial boards or bodies, but it has con ferred power upon local officials and tax levying authorities with respect to th# extent to which local taxes may be levied,” Mr Brummitt said. "Local school officials may prepare a budget and request a levy of the special tax for districts supporting and maintaining a high school at a rate sufficient and limited to main tenance of schools of such districts for a minimum term of eight months.

Clark, dentist of Franklinton. was found dead in bed this morning at the home of his sister. Miss Marina Clark, near Kittrell where he had been visiting over the week-end. Dr. W. H. Furman, who was called, said death was caused by a heart attack. He was 79 yarn of age. Dr. Clark, was a native of Alabama, ' where he was bom In 1853, had been practicing in Franklinton the past' two years. His wlf had been dead for years, and he leaves no children and . no brothers, the sister in whise home • he was a guest at th time of his death being the only near relative. He had practiced dentistry 40 years. Funeral services will be held tomop* row aft moon at 2 30 o’clock at the.! home of-Miss Clark near Kittretl. and will be conducted by Rev. R. E.

"Local school officials may a budget and request a tax levy for > elementary schools within a local tax district supporting elementary schools only, limited to one or more months of an extended term and to State standards established for the opera tion of the six months school term, and tax levying boards and the State Board of Equalization may limit their . approval of such budgets and tax > rates to the same extent.” Boiled down, this means. *' 1. That boards of county commis-. sioners or school boards cannot re-C fuse to levy taxes in special school' tax districts that have been voted by „ the people, since only the people or the General Assembly can remove these taxes. 2. That the board of county com missioners or other tax levying body does not necessarily have to levy the maximum tax provided for in the act# creating the special tax districts, but*' that it must levy enough tax to main tain the extended term on the same standard as set up for het State six months school term, and that the tax levying board and State Board of Equalization may cut the tax rat mJ down to this basis. 3. That in districts where high schools are operated, the tax rate must be sufficient to operate the high school or high schools fro eighty months, but that in districts where’ there are only elementary schools, that the term may be reduced to seven months, although a sufficient tax to operate the schools for the desired term on the basis of State standard* must be levied. 4 Hearing fc.Waived* By Durhanfi Banker For Embezzlement Durham, July 25.—(API —A F. ’Noell. former chief teller of the Fidelity Bank, waived a preliminary hearing on a charge of embezzlment here today and was bound over to the Sptember term of Durham Su perior Court under $5,000 bond.
