The two candidates for major office Clif ford Frazier for governor and Jake Newell for United States senator, are as dry as anybody has been. They are pressing their point. If they are losing any Republican support it does net appear from anything that comes to Raleigh. There will be no attacks on Demo cratic members of the lower house in Washington. Mr. Hancock, of Gran ville, is not a wet, though he favored submission of the eighteenth amend ment. No other member went his length. The Anti-Saloon League will therefore have only Mr. Reynolds to fight. Centering on him will be for tunate for them. Republicans say. They don't think Democrats will be in a hurry to take on outside trouble. By attacking Mr. Reynolds the league can avoid the appearance of politics, by voting 11 of the 12 Democrats of fered in the election they can make themselves passably Democratic and that is what they appear to be doing. Mr. Reynolds alone is under the lea gue's condemnation. EXISTING AGENCIES ARE TO ADMINISTER RELIEF FOR STATE (Continued frem Pag® One.) tion of $300,000,000 which is loaned to the states at three per cent is ap portioned according to needs and not by population. There is a limitation about the acmount which any state may receive. It is 15 per cent. New York is said to have called for $30,- 000.000, which is just 10 per cent. Un til North Carolina’s returns are all in and the elaborate questionnaire has been completed the State's needs will not be known. Frank Bain, state com missioner of Virginia, an-! secretary to the national organization of wel fare superintendents, has told Gover nor Gardner that the North Carolina questionnaire is very comprehensive and the best that he has seen. The old council of unemployment and relief has expired and it will not be set up again. Governor Gardner's purpose to use State agencies without increasing salaries or providing any new ones will leave the fund intact. The State appropriated a small amount, about $20,000, for the purpose of helping the unemployed to find work- but the good that it may have done was partially off-set by the po litical assaults made on it. The old council never purported to find jobs, but sought to stir individuals and communities into action in behalf of people who have no work. Lieutenant Governor R. T. Fountain made the governor's council on unemployment and relief an Issue before the public In the campaign for governor. Mr. dead of night Hundreds have been keeping a nightly vigil re cently.

'■ , • -2W Miss Joan MacDonald, second daughter of Prime Minister Ram say MacDonald of Great Britain, is shown at Edinburgh just after she received her degree of bache lor of medicine and surgery at the University of Edinburgh. She ia about to become the bride of Dr. Alai-tair MacKinnon, who was a fellow student in the wards of the Roval infirmarv at Edinburgh. Fountain had quite a lot of fun de riding this organization, which he said spent $19,000 and found employ ment for only a pair of stenographers, a college teacher, and a press agent. The council, however, was acquainting the people with the needs and was in no sense a job-finder. It is an odd turn in politics that the two state agencies which will disburse these millions will be the organization which Mr. Fountain most often mentioned with adversions. The State Highway Commission's chair man handles the workers who get em ployment under this act, and the wel fare department regiments the needy and helps them. Mr. Fountain as sailed the highway management con stantly, He made attacks, not on the welfare department, but on its mar ried kinspeople. But these State agen cies will take on the administration of these funds. Governor Gardner says that xyhen needy and able-bodied workers can get positions with the highway com mission they will pass from the list of dependents and the funds will be available for others less fortunate. The calls for this money vary in their immensity. Some counties have as sumed that they do not need their regular relief |levies, ibut Governor Gardner urges the people to under stand that the Federal funds are merely supplementary to the regular city and county provision. Failing crops will make North Car olina's needs greater this year than usual. Governor Gardner has written Washington. Foods and foodstuffs raised in great quantities have failed on account of dry weather. His ex cellency expects a loss of about $lO,- 000,000 this year on that account.

F. Criswell, agricultural economist at State College said today. During July the price for hog® soared above the five dollar mark compared to a record low of $3.19 last May. "The North Carolina farmer In a position to take advantage of the in creased pork prices should prepare to do so but great changes should not be made without considering the risk involved,” Criswell said. “There Is still the low price for all farm commodities to be considered as well as the fact that veal, mut ton and beef can be substituted for pork and vegetable oils for lard if pork products go too high in price."
