DEVELOPMENTS RISE
IN DAVIDSON CAMP
Wildcats Have New UniJ
forms For Games This
Fall; Field in Good
Shape
Davidson, Aug. 9—Developments
of both a pleasing and displeasing na- j
ture occurred around the Davldi;on
College football camp this week. The J
former consisted of the information
that George Ross and Percy McElraUi j
big Cackles, would return to Davidson
this Tall, while the dsiconcerting nev s
was !that Joe Lee. who was expected
to alternate with Buddy Gardner at
center, had undergone an operation
for appendicitis, which would keep
him on the inactive list until the. mid- ,
die of October, or perhaps even longer. '
With Wagner. Whitfield. Ross and
'MeElratih all hovering e-round the '
200-pound weight. Coach Newton will,
hdve ah abundance -of material for
the tackle positions. Besides
four, there are about four others who
wilt be in the midst of the competition,
giving tihe line an unusual amount of
material for this part bf hia line.
Lee’s operation is particularly dis
heartening to Coach Newton, Coupied
with this ia the information that Boyd
Morris will probably be absent tlhis
fall. Morris was used in the winder
practice as a substitute center, hav
ing been shiftde from the flanks. This
leaves Gardner und Wootten as the
two main candidates today, and this
is an inufficient number to make the
Davidson line tutbr feel secure at
center.

Dizzy Dean Pitches In Sec

Victory In Five Days
St. Louis. Aug, 29 (AP) —The ec
centric Dizzy Dean, who recently ask
ed to be used in more games and was
granted, pitched the St. Louis Cardi
nals to victory for the third time in
five days in the second game of to
day's doubleheader with Brooklyn, 6
to 4, after Paul Derringer won the
first for the Red Birds, 4 to 1.
The double defeat sent the Dodgers
into third place in the National. lea
gue race, behind the idle Pittsburgh
Pirates, while the world champions
passed up the Boston Braves, alsoidle,
and went into a tie with Philadelphia
in fourth position.
The Cardinals bunched four hit*
in the sixth inning of the first fame
for , fotir • rurta t& silinbh victory, for
Derringer who held the Brooklyn
players scoreless until Uhe ninth.
Dean went ’ eight innings for the
Cardinals yesterday, giving way to
a pinch hitter Roy Blades, but was
the winning hurler. Wednesday and
Friuay he went the route for Gabby
Streets clan, chalking up victories
over the Giants on both occasions.
HEELSPRESENTING
LIGHT AGGREGATION
First Season In Years That
Backfield Has Been |
Heavier Than tine
Chapel Hill, Aug. 29 Advance
dope blowing about the Tar Heel foot
ball camp indicates that the 1932 edi
tion of Chuoh Collins' gridiron hopes
will be the lightest to represent the
university of North Carolina ip Re
cent years.
A tentative starting lineup based
on Spring practice will give the Tar
Heels a backfield averaging around
172. While this is slightty heavier
than last year, the line will be con
siderably lighter.
The graduation of Fysal. Mclver.
Gilbreath, and Brown reduces the line
weight about 35 pounds, or 5 pounds
to the man. These figures are based
on the heaviest replacement possible,
as seen in Spring practice.

GENERAL SALES TAX
LOOMS AS CERTAIN
(Continued from page On*.)
sales tax group in the Senate it may
be able to defeat the general sales
tax move. But it is generally con
ceded that the general sales tax forces
have the cream of the leadership in
the Senate, and probably in tjie House,
as well, with the result that many
observers here are already convinced
that a general sales tax is virtually
Inevitable.
Those Behind Movement.
The forces that are favoring a gen
eral sales tax > are the big property
owners, including the railroads, to
bacco companies, power companies
and large corporations. These were
the ones who pushed the general sales
tax through the House of the 1931
General Assembly and tried to com
pel the Senate to enact it, though
without success. But this time, with
16 general sales tax ad
vocates in the Senate and with A. D.
Mac Lean, of Beaufort county, and Ro
bert M. Hanes, of Forsyth, who led the
general sales tax fight In the House
in 1931, to lead it again in the Senate
this year, observers here believe it
will be almost Impossible to prevent a
general sales tax from passing the
senate during the 1933 session. Larry
L Moore, of New Bern, will also be
a member of the Senate this time. In
1931 Moore was president'of the North
Carolina Tax Relief Association, as
well as of the “third house" and
brought several mass meetings to Ra
leigh composed mostly of eastern far
mers, advocating a sales tax.
Dangers Loom, However.
If the general sales tax advocates
make too determined an effort to
enact a general sales tax, they may
get themselves into another very dif
ficult situation, however, For, while
the State Merchants Association is
now understood to be bitterly opposed
to either form of sales tax, as it was
in 1931. many believe that this associa
tion with its S,(MX) merchants will come
out in favor of a luxury tax rather
than a general sales, tax, and thus
slap a luxury tax on the State instead.
This would greatly discomfit the to
'bacco companies. For while the to
bacco companies are very anxious for
a general sales tax and have been
doing everything possible to build up
sentiment for the general sales tax
since the 1931 General Assembly, ac
cording to reliable reports received
here, they would rather have no sales
tax at all than have a luxury sales
tax. For this tax would impose a State
tax of about 20 per cent on cigarettes
and tobacco products, as well as on
soft drinks, peanuts, candy, chewing
gum and about 150 other comihodities.
Position of Merchants.
If the 5,000 merchants in the State
should come out for a luxury sales
tax they would, of course, lose the
support of their drug store members
as well as the bottlers, it Is conceded
here. There are many more merchants
than there are drug store operators
and there is no doubt that the mer
chants would rather see the so-called
luxuries taxed and which are sold for
the most part by the drug stores, than
see all of them taxed with a tax on
gross sales covering almost every com
modity. Nor have the merchants any
very platonic feeling toward the to
bacco companies. They know to what
lengths the tobacco companies, assist-

Mrs.. Gra.v V; I..ji,n Poole, of

ed by the railroads and power com
panies. went to in 1931 to put over a
general sales tax Now, if this same
coalition tries the same maneuver in
1933. it is regarded as almost certain
that the merchants will switch to the
luxury sales tax both to save their
own hides and In order to “sock it to"
the tobacco companies. 111 1.931. if the
merchants had weakened for even one
day, a luxury sales tax could have
been enacted, it is agreed -by those
who followed the sales tax fight in
that assembly. If the merchante'come
out for a luxury tax in 1933 it is
agreed it will be difficult for the to
bacco companies to prevent it enact
ment. despite their influence and
wealth.
General Tax Folks Busy.
It is evident, however, that the gen
eral sales tax advocates have been do
ing a great deal of missionary work
in the State, and that some of those
who two years ago were bitterly op
posed to the general sales tax and for
the luxury tax are now clamoring for
the general sales tax and opposed to
the luxury. This was evident in some
of the speeches made by county of
ficials at the meeting of the State
Association of County Commissioners
in Wrightsville Beach the first part
of this morlth. Some of those who went
to the National Democratic Conven
tion in Chicago, many of them mem
bers of the forthcoming General As
sembly, were royally entertained there
by representatives of companies anx
ious to have a general sales tax but
bitterly opposed to a luxury sales tax,
according to reports that have reach
ed here. It is understood that several
of those who went to Chicago and
who will be in the 1933 legislature are
now firmly in favor of a general sales
tax.
If this campaign of conversion from
the luxury to the general sales tax
has been general enough, and if the
general sales tax bloc can wm over
enough of the luxury tax group—it
needs'to win over only 7 ten 1 members
in order to have- a majority in the
Senate—4t will just about have things
its own way, it -is agreed here, Not
even the merchants can stop them
should— they come out for a luxury
tax, a majority hern agree.
Line-Up of Senate.
The most recent survey of the 1933
Senate shows 16 senators believed de
finitely aligned with the general sales
tax. 18 senators for the luxury sales
tax and only 16 senators opposed to

either or both forms of the sales tax.
But if a prolonged deadlock should
appear likely over the sales tdK ques
tion, such as developed in 1981, it is
believed that enough senators will de
sert one group or the other in order
to enact either the general or luxury
tax. with the odds at present
being in favor of the general sales tax,
largely because the big tobacco com
panies are expected to throw the full
force of th£ir influence behind th*

Ebbing Immigration Tide
And Declining Birth Rate
Suggest Evil Times Ahead
(Continued from r*aga One.)
rope's numbers nearly doubled. In the
nineteenth they more than doubled
again.
"Throughout the world. wherever
the white man went, taking his in
stitutions with him, there was a sim
ilar increase. India’s population pro
bably doubled in the last century,
Japan's doubled in the last 60 years.
Under the Dutch. Java's increased
eightfold within a century.
“Economists of Malthus' school be
came greatly alarmed, and no won
der.”
"The L'nited States," went on the
doctor, began by doubling every quar
ter of a century, but this rate of in
crease had begun to decline long be
fore immigration was sharply re
stricted.
"Between 1870 and 1880 the rate of
increase was 30 per cent; between 1880
and 1890, it was 25 per cent; between
1890 and 1900, and again between 1900
and 1910. it was 30 cent; between 1910
and 1920. if was 15 per cent.
The curtailment of immigration not
only reduced additions from abroad;
it also resulted in a lowering in the
American birth rate, for our com
paratively newly-arrived immigrants
were the folk who usually had been
providing our large families.
“Our trend toward the cities aiso
had set in. To the farmer children
are an asset from the age of 10 or
12 upward they are helpful to him. In
a city they are a burden practically
until they reach maturity. This ac
centuated the decline it. the birth
rate.
“In 1921 It stood at 24,1 per thou
sand throughout th.; registration area.
In 1931 it had sunk - o 17.0."
“Many children," raid the doctor,
"die in infancy, nr i 1> per cent of
men and women never have o'fspiing.
This means ihat, to maintain a sta
tionary population, the number of chil
dren must be nearer three than tvo
per family.
“To avoid a decline the birth rate
must be 16.7 per thousand, at our pre
sent life expectancy of 60 years.
"And we are down to 17.6.
"In two or three years, at that rat*
we shall be on a stationary basis; in ■’
two or three years after that w# shall
need an annual 150.000 legally admit
ted immigrants plus the 50,000 who, it
is estimated, enter illegally each year,
to prevent our population from show
ing a decrease when our children of
today have reached middle age."
