YEAR’S ELECTIONS
COST STATE $5,610
Includes Two Primaries and
General Election; 7-,
950,000 BalloU
7Q^ le ‘ Kh ’ 7 (AP) There were
TWSO.OOO ballots furnished counties' by
the State Board of Eelection* for the
two primaries and the general elec
tion this year. Raymond C. Maxwell
executive secretary of the board re
Ported today.
In addition, in order that election
officials might be informed on pro
per procedure and laws bn elections
and might have proper records the
board furnished:
Two thousand poll books; 15,000
copies of the election laws; 135 000
absentee ballots; 77 000 abstracts and
return fo.ms; 800 registration books
and thousands of printed pamphlets
of instructions."
"Thes- supplies.’ Mr. Maxwell said
represent several times the nunibei
which was necessary for the State n
Jew years a,,,. } „ , h „, *
furnished now to the counties at
much less cost than then." •
The total cost of the three State
wide ballot lugs led this year was $5..
610 for the fiscal year 1931-32. includ
ing the first and second primaries
and about $7,500 for the fiscal year
1932-33. including the general election.
Entiy fees in the primaries totalled
$2,600. leaving the net primary cost
at S3OIO.
"I understand. Maxwell said, "that
the total cost to the state of the last
primary and general election- will be
less than the cost to some of the lar
ger counties in the State for holding
the primary and general election this
year within those counties."

Raleigh. Dec. 7.—Dinner pails
scores of them big ones, little ones,
round ones square ones, ovail shap
ed ones-- all of them Hoover dinner
pails with nothing in them were on
a long table in the Division of Pur
chase. and Contract here today.
"What is the big idea - has pros
perity returned so quickly that peo
ple need dinner pails again and ac
tually have something to put in thm?"
some one asked of A. S. Brower, di
rector of the JWitoii. l " ~ *
Still another person remarked that
the election of Mr. Roosevelt must
hive started, the Dpvtßton or Pup
chase to get ready for better days by
purchasing a supply of dinner pails,
convinced that some food would be
available soon with which to fill then*
It turned out, however, that the
dinner pails were samples subbmit
ted by various manufacturers for ex
amination by the purchasing division
of the State Highway Commission, as
port of another proposed economy
plan in th* handling of prisoners. The
pi ison department, with less funds
and more prisoners to feed every’
month, is going to try to reduce ex
penses by sending its ‘‘trusty’’ pri
soners out without guards and with,
their dinners in dinner puiLs, to re-'
duce the time and expense of having
to bring prisoners either back to the
camps for dinner or of taking din
ner to the prisoners in trucks.
Tried so far only on an experimen
tal scale, the plan has worked out
well and at a considerable saving,
since it has reduced the cost of
guards and the cost of feeding the
prisoners and the cost of transpor
tation. So the commission is considei
ing the purchase of additional din
ner pails tor the trusty prisoners in
the hope that still more money can
be saved.

fA’OTV QO ON WITH THE STORYJ
CHAPTER 2S
IT WAS nearly ten o'clock when
Nanette returned to th« beach cot
tage.
I’ete Russell was talking to some
of his feminine guests when she
walked in. He saw her and let out
• gasp of admiration. Abruptly, al
most rudely, he left them and went to
hui.
"You're wonderful!" he exclairued.
Quite openly he allowed his eyes to
cover her from head to foot.
A moment Jater she was surrotided
b' most ofahe men. each clamoring
his compliment Id afi effort to outdo
♦ho other. Tbe women, left unat
tended, exchanged glances of, venom

Nanette’s gown was of tight-fitting
Mack silk, daringly decollete, aerv
tng to reveal than conceal the
<volv.ptuotianess of her dainty, well
pcoportioned form. Her hair was
drawn hack tightly, parted In the

"She would nave to d.*i somoTlunr
Kl;e that,” one of the girls muttered
MUerly.
Pete Russell, unable *to control
himself, grasped her by the arm. but
she easily, but firmly, released her
self. and in such a manner that she
gave no offense
“You were gone so tong.” he
breathed -devotedly, "three hours.”

“It was so warm." she explained,
and there was a mysterious twinkle
in her eye. "and I had so much to
think about. Before I knew where
I was I found myself in Beverly Hills,
so I decided to change from my hath
sad for something else."
Pete turned to his guesis. "Bet's
*H get dressed." he suggested, "and
go out and crash somebody ctse's
party."
The women were only too glad io
do that. Without further ado. they
went to the rooms set aside for them
The men were more reluctam to
leave her. but they finally dragi;ed
themselves away.
If Nanette's ears burned as she was
l*ft alone there was ample cause The
women, whom she had caused to be
so completely snubbed and Ignored,
set upon her with drawn fangs, and
hy the time they had put the finish
ng touches on their toilette her rrpu

uis nothing left unsaid about her.

even brought to a vote in the Senate.
Drastib reduction in governmental
expenditures was insisted upon by the
secretary who predicted that the pre

following year, at the present pace,
with a deficit of $307,000,000 exclusive

$479,00p.000 in the 1934 fiscal year if

Mr. Mills asked Congress to retain
the one cent a gallon tax on gasoline,
which was to be effective only until
next June, if it was containued
for another year it would provide an
additional $137,000,000 of revenue, re
ducing the estfmated deficit by that
amoußt. It is not feasible, he said, to
provide for resumpton of the nor
mal reduction of the public debt in
1934, blit urged that otherwse the bud

would have willingly played Elaine.
But when she was left alono Nan
ette doited her shroud of Imperial
superiority. ’ A frown darkened her
face; her lips were pressed together
until they were white. Fear sprang
into her eyes. Haunted!
She went to the window and looked
out, as if expecting someone. But If
she was anticipating the , arrival of
anyvwie else she w;La disappointed.
She turned and walked slowly across
the room, her hands clenching and
unclenching.
Back and forth she paced, nerv
ously, anxiously. Something was
preying on her mind.
The radio sent forth its blatant
jazz Distractedly, she turned to it
and stalled to snap off the current.
At that moment the sound of a loud
gong crashed from t!*e loudspeaker.
It was like a gong of doom.
. A voice rasped: "Ladies and gen
tlemen. may wo Interrupt the pro

She grew tense and pale.

Nanette stood staring at the radio
receiving set with unseeing eyes. So
Chivington was dead. He had paid
'his price of loyalty to one who did
not deserve It. A cloud of suioor'
tainty crossed her countenantte. The
police said it was suicide. Was that
just a trap? Did Die police really

Approaching footsteps roused her
from hi t cogitations She had forced
a smile to her lips when Pete Rus

her. He advanced toward lier. ;;r n

repealed, and that there be imposed
a general manufacturers' excise tax
substantially in the form appearing in
the bill originally reported by the
ways and means committee of the
House of Representatives during the
last session of Congress.
"It is estimated that such a mea
sure with the 2 1-4 per cent rate will
yield about 355.000.000 assuming a
full year's collections, thus making
possible the elimination of a number
of the unsatisfactory and relatively
unproductive new excise taxes. "In
View of the misunderstanding as evi

of last winter I must emphasize that
I am not recommending a general
sales or turnover tax with the in
evitable pyramiding of the tax but

The manufacturers’ excise tax bill
referred to by Mills levied a tax upon
all finished manufacturers, excepting
only food and moderate priced cloth
ing.
Later other exemptions were added
in an effort to win congressional ap
proval.
Mills did not name the new taxes
he would like to see repealed but said
the taxes on brewer's wort, on bank
checks and recreation admissions had
produced muen less than expected.
The internal revenue bureau report
he transmitted to Congress said it had

such a manner that he knew she

"Gee,’’ lie enthused, “I sure wojild

But Nanette never did learn what
he was going to say. The approach
of some of the other guests silenced
him ami he started talking, as men
and women will, about the weather.
Boon they were all dressed and
anxious to be off. the women csj>e
cially. They were disgusted with the
treatment which had been accorded
them since Nanette Lcßoi had come
among them, and they were not at
all hesitant about revealing just how
they felt.
“1 think she’s got her nerve." the
(luffy blonde exclaimed angrily. "Her
sweetheart Isn’t in his grave yet. and
here she Is out vamping every man
within reach.’’
Nanette overheard and turned a
1 deep scarlet. Her eyes blazing, she
• whirled toward the girt.

The secretary said that while it had
been estimated last May that the in
come of the government for the 1933
fiscal year would araount to $3,098,-
000,000, revised estimates indicated it
would total $2,624,000,000. He said cus
toms duties now were estimated at
*290.000,000 a drop of $60,000,000 from
the May estimate; income taxes at
$860,000,000 a drop of $176,000,000;
brewer's wort at $10,000,000 a drop of
$72,000,000; bank checks at $45,000,000
a drop of $33,000,000; arid admissions

fiscal year he estimated that receipts
from all sources woukl amount to
$2,624,256,193 and expenditures to $4,-
268.888.400.
Mills recommended that when
money advanced to the Reconstruc
tion Finance CorpmaUon is repaid it
be applied to reduction of the public
debt. Such action would reduce by ap
proximately $1,000,000,000 the increase
in the public debt in recent years.

When there are five of a suit miss
ing, as tbere were with clubs, ther*
are 88 chances In 100 that the five *
missing cards are divided 3-2 be- ;
tween opponents. Even If one opi>o
neht held four clubs It would coal
no more to let him win a trump trick
than to have an opponent win s
heart trick. Y played rile hand per

and hla own 10 won. Y it-d his last
heart, and dummy trumped with
the K.
A cam* very near making a seri

The declarer won his sixth and.

them evenly divided are (!5 to 35. As
he feared might be the case, the de
clarer found on the third lead ot
