such action in two different ways.
.In the first place, the State could
not assume the $99,000,000 of county
road indebtedness now outstanding,
since to do so would violate the sec
tion of the Constitution that stipu
lates that the State shall not con
tract any debt in eaeess of 7 1-2 per
cent of the assessed valuation of the
State. ('Sec. 4, Article V.) The pre
sent bonded indebtedness of the State
of $181,000,000 is almost to this limit
of 7 1-2 per cent of the State’s as
sessed valuation, now at approximate
ly $2,800,000,000. If the General As
sembly orders a revaluation, such as
is being asked, this valuation will un
doubtedly be greatly reduced. So many
think this clause alone would make
it unconstitutional for the General
Assembly to attempt to shove the
county road Indebtedness over the
State. '
But even without this provision that
the State may not borrow up to more
than 7 1-2 par cent of its assessed
valuation, the second clause of this
same Section 4. Article V, of the Con
stitution would prohibit assumption by
the State of these county bonds sold
for highway construction, according
to a number of legal minds here, un
less the question should be submitted
to a vWe of the people in a special
election. For this section further pro
vides that the “General Assembly
shall have no power to give or lend
the credit of the S‘ate in aid of any
pedson, association or corporation....
unless the subject be submitted to «
direct vote of the people of the State
and be approved by & majority of
those who shall vote thereon.” It is
maintained that thu section clearly
prohibits the general assembly from
enacting any legislation whereby the
State would assume the payment of j
the unpaid portion of any county road i
bonds, unless such action should be
approved in a special election.
There are rumblings, however, that
those who would like to dump all
county indebtedness into the lap and
onto the treasury of the State and thus
remove almost the entire tax load
from property and rtanafer it to in
direct taxes on business and industry,
will advotae an amendment to the
Constitution removing the existing re
strictions. An amendment will also
be sought, according to current ru
mors, to increase the limit on the
State income tax from 8 per cent to
10 per cent. These proposals are un
derstood to be already before the
Constitutional Commission, which is
drafting a new Constitution to be
presented to the 1933 general assem
bly, with a view to its adoption at a
subsequent special election.
These measures are being sponsored
by the same group in eastern part
of the State which supported Mac-
Lean in his famous "Mac Lean Law”
to require the State to pay the entire
cost of operating the six months
school term without any tax on pro
perty. Mac Lean and his bloc did not
succeed entirely, since the general as
.-embly finally imposed a 15 cents tax
on property for schools. But it re
lieved the counties of almost $12,-
000,000 in taxes for school purposes. It
is a foregone conclusion that the 1933
general assembly will abolish —if it
can—the 15 cents tax, so that the
coqnties will no longer pay any taxes
either for the support of the schools
or roads.
Having been successful in unload
ing the cost of school and road main
tenance from the counties onto the
State, it has been assumed for some
time that this same school of thought
that is determined to transfer the
cost of government in North Carolina
from property to indirect taxes on
business and industry, would cast
about for something else to pass on
to the State and that it would be
the assumption of either the county
road debts or school debts. But un
less the Constitution is changed, it
would appear that Section 4, Article
V will effectually prevent this move
unless the Constitution is amended.

I told him that If he had never had

he would come down with It because
measles Is one of the most conta

enough. In about a week he had
plenty of measles. During his Isolated
childhood life .on the farm none ot‘

Children around home get used to
the infections of their few Intimates
and acquire an Immunity to them.
But when they enter school they
make contacts with a great many
new acquaintances who come from
many different homes and bring
strange infections with them. Human
carriers are the most frequent cause
of the spread of disease.
Some of the dangers of school life
can be entirely prevented, and all
parents should see to It that their
children have the benefit of this safe
guard. How this can be done will be
described tomorrow.
