New School Bill
To Reduce Taxes
(Dontumed from rage 0«e.)
ers of the State and as the first ma
jor defeat of the organized school
forces. The bill is far from acceptable
to most of the school people, since
it is going to make it necessary for
most of the counties and districts to
operate their schools on the money
received from the $16,000,000 a year
appropriated toy the State, which is
approximately $6,000000 less than was
spent this and last year on the eight
months term. But the provisions in
the bill making it as difficult as pos
sible for local units to levy supple
mental tares is a decided victory for
the people who have been paying the
school tares and who have been in
sisting that they must be given some
relief.
WiH Cause Hardships.
While it is agreed that the reduction
made in the appropriation, for the
eight months school term is going to
cause some hardship on the teachers
and superintendents, principally thro
ugh a heavy reduction in salaries,
those who have studied the ne*w ma
chinery act maintain that the school
children are not going to suffer ma
terially. Some even maintain that in
many cases the school children aie
going to. have a better educational
opportunity than heretofore, as the
result of the Statewide eight months
term They also point out that, while
he teachers will get a reduction of
20 per cent below the salaries they
are now getting, that they will have
the advantage of being sure they will
get they pay checks for eight months
from the State, instead of six. For
they will no longer have to “take a
chance” on getting their pay for an
extra two months from local taxes
which in the past were often not col
lected There are many counties and
tax districts, in which supplemental
taxes for the extended term have been
levied but not collected, which are
\s much as two years behind in com
pleting the payment of their teachers
for the extended term.
Rigid Restrictions.
The school forces, especially the
superintendents, contended that the
GTiffin machinery bill would wreck
the schools,” and did everything pos
sible to defeat it and have the Aycock
school bill in the House substituted
for it. But the House turned a deaf
ear to their complaints and made the
Griffin bill even stronger than it pass
ed the Senate. For, while it Prided
that the larger cities and units may
levy supplemental taxes for a ninth
month, it adopted the O’Berry amend
ment that provides no city, county or
unit in default may levy supplemen
tal taxes for a ninth month, even by
a vote of the people. The superin in
dents also opposed the heavy reduc
tion made in the salaries of super
intendents, which now will range from
*£2» a year to *=“.800 .. year where
they formerly ranged from 82,000 to
84 000 a year. They also opposed the
m ’he bill that does not set
Sp any definite pupil load per teach
er But both of these features will
bring about the more eco"omde s l »p
--{.ration of the schools so the\ were
retained. „ . .

Another feature of this billtha WtH

CONTRACT BRIDGE

FAMOUS BRIDGE TEACHER
CAN EAST-WEST DEFEAT
4-SPADES?
NORTH AND SOUTH were vul
nerable, but East and West were not
vulnerable when the hand below ap
peared. South went game on spades.
The questions arose whether he
should have been allowed to play
the hand at spades, and if some other
type of defensive play would not
have defeated the contract.

North, 4-Clubs; South, 4-Spades,
doubled by East, ending bidding.
West led his Ace of diamonds, fol
lowed by the 9, to beat, dummy. East
had to play his 10. South won with
his false-carded K. The Ace of
spades won the third trick, and
East’s K of spades took the fourth
trick. East led his lone Qof hearts.
Dummy’s Ace won, upon that trick
the declarer discarded his 7 of dia
monds. The sixth and seventh tricks
were won with dummy’s Ace and K
of clubs. East won the eighth triek
portation, although the cost has been I
as low as $2 a pupil in some counties
and much more in others. Under the
old system, if a superintendent got
more for transportation than he ac
tually needed, he could use it on some
thing else. But under the new law,
the transportation system will be co
ordinated on a Sttewide basis and
{paid for at the actual cast. This
provision was bitterly opposed by the
superintendents, but without avail.
While the new law provides for the
abolition of the lod State Board of
Equalization and the creation of a
new State School Commission in its
place, the school forces were) far from
satisfied, since the new commission
is given even greater powers than the
board of equalization had. They were
also worried lest Leßoy Martin, exe
cutive secretary of the old board,
should toe appointed to the same of
fice with the new board. They made
every possible effort to make it im
possible for him to be connected with
the new board by offering numerous
amendments to bar him. But none of
these efforts prevailed.

with his Q of clubs. He held four
losing spades, and one losing club.
His side had won only three tricks.
What was he to do? If he led a
spade the declarer’s four spades and
his good diamond must win the rest
of the tricks, giving him his game
contract doub.ed. If East led a club
the dummy would be In the lead and
both East and the declarer would
have to trump. East led a trump,
thinking it possible that the declarer
held a losing diamond. Os course
South spread his hand for game.
As a matter of fact, West’s open
ing lead of his Ace of diamonds was
about the only defensive play that
could enable South to go game. That
lead established two good diamonds
in the declaring hand, and later on
the declarer was able to discard his
only remaining losing diamond upon
dummy’s Ace of hearts. Laying
down an Ace of a long suit, and fre
quently of a short suit, ts about as
poor an opening as can be made.
Because East held the missing Q
of hearts an opening lead of a low
heart would have defeated the hand,
but North’s double led West to be
lieve that dummy held the missing
heart honors, and that an opening
lead of that suit might prove fatal.
He was not to blame for refusing to
make that opening lead. Nor was
West to blame for not realizing that
an opening lead of a low diamond
would also have defeated the con
tract. West should have led a low
trump. That would also have defeat
ed the contract, as then the declarer
must have lost two tricks in dia
monds, also one trump and one club
trick. Tomorrow we will consider
what could have been done at clubs.j
abolishing 1932 tax penalties in many
counties of the State.
Both divisions of the assembly re
ceived an unexpected message of ap
preciation from Governor J. C. B.
Ehringhaus. The action was believed
to be without legislative precedent.
The chief executive thanked the leg
islators “for your splendid services
performed in these most difficult days
of modern times.” He expressed es
pecial gratification at enactment of
the eight months school law and fis
cal legislation to balance the budget.
Under suspension of the rules, the
Senate passed a bill intended to add
New Hanover and Haywood counties
to those divisions in which tbe voters
may express themselves on legalization
of pari-mutual betting on hdrse-rac
ing. The measure was delayed for
(clarification amendments in the
House.
The beer supplementary measure
threw the legislature into a deadlock.
The Senate adopted a conference re
port, but the House rejected it be
cause it placed a tax limit on State
licenses to sell beer at S6O. Under the
original law a bassic unit of a chain
is taxed $5 and the rate increases 50
cents for each additional store.
Provisions in the bill to allow brew
eries to ship beer out of the State
and reduce the cost of licenses for
salesmen from $25 to $12.50 were not
contested.
The General Assembly passed a sub
statue bill for a measure amending
an earlier House bill abolishing
sheriff’s tax sales. The amended pro
posal would move up sales three
months this year and limit costs at
$6 and limit interest at eight percent.

It reduced the salaries of all State

It adopted a three pr cent general

Among Most Outstanding
Game Laws Also Revised, Compensation Act Saved
and Many Professions and Classes Regulated; Cor«
poration Commission Fight Outstanding
Dully Dlipatrlf RurCat,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
HIT 4. C. IIASKRHVILL.
Raleigh, May 15.—The biggest fights
to come before the General Assembly
this year were naturally the revenue,
appropriations and school measures,
but much time was also consumed on
the other matters, notably reorgani
zation of State government, the game
laws, so-called “moral” legislation
affecting various classes and profes
sions.
One of the longest and bitterest
fights during the session was over the
bill abolishing the three-member Cor
poration Commission and establishing
in its place a public utilites commis
sioner. This bill, sponsored by the
joint committee on the reorganization
of State government, and ostensibly
could be financed without recourse to
any hew forms of taxation, especially
without recourse to a sales tax. The
appropriations bill proposed by Bowie,
it is now agreed, would not have pro
vided for more than four months op
eration of the public schools and did
not purpose more than a six months
school term, ft would have reduced
the salaries of all State employes 44
per cent below the 1931 level, instead
of only 32 percent below it, as the
ibill finally enacted provides. Although
Bowie and his group, by forming a
coalition with the more moderate
economy group headed by Represen
tative R. Gregg Cherry, of Gaston,
succeeded in getting his bill adopted
in place of the committee appropria
tions bill, it was amended ot such an
extent before the House finished with
it. that it bore little resemblance to
the original Bowie bill. The total ap
propriations it called for was increas
ed from a beginning of about $lB,-
00,000 to about $22,000,000. When the
Senate got it, an additional $2,000,000
was added for an eight months school
term, and more for other purposes,
making the total appropriations
amount to approximately $25,000,000
a year from the general fund, and to
about $41,000,000 a year for everything
(tnciluetyig she StErfte highways ''and
debt service. This represented a net
reduction of more than $10,000,000 a
year in the appropriations as compar
ed with the 1931 allotments.
Fight Over Revenue.
The next major fight developed over
the framing of a revenue bill that
would yield the $25,000,000 a year need
ed with which to finance the appro
priations bill and hence balance the
budget. The contention of the Bowie
extreme economy bloc all along had
been that unless the most drastic
economy were practiced a sales tax
would be necessary. The others had
maintained from the first that a sales
tax would be necessary any way, if
the State removed the 15 cents pro
perty tax, and that a still larger sales
tax would be necessary if a State
supported eight months school term
were adopted. The finance commit
tees had been working for weeks try
ing to write a revenue bill without a
sales tax, and had been unable to raise
enough revenue without some kind
of sales tax.
House Finally Agrees.
But the House at first refused to
consider the sales tax section in the
revenue bill and threw it out, trying
to raise the revenue from other sour
ces, despite the fact that Governor
Ehringhaus had previously advised
the levying of some sort of a sales
tax as an emergency measure in or
der to balance the budget. After wal
lowing around for several
House named a special suh-comrMtt||e
to draw up a plan that would yield
enough revenue and it came back with
a recommendation for a two per cent
sales tax. An effort to substitute a
luxury sales tax for this failed. The
House finally adopted the two per
cent general sale stax plan, and sent
the bill to the Senate. The Senate
decided that even this would not bal
lance the budget and put in the three
per cent sales tax, with a few exemp
tions, which all agreed would balance
the budget. The House finally accept
ed this and the main fight was ovsr.

an economy measure, was really aim
ed at a more efficient administration.
Prison-Highway Bill.
While this was one of the most
lengthy fights before the General As
sembly, the most important of all the
bills brought out by the reorganiza
tion committee was the prison -high
way bill, designed to make an annual
saving of more than $400,000. This
bill consolidated the State Prison De
partment into a single Department;
of Public Works. The new head of
this consolidated department is pro
bably the most important appoint
ment that Governor Ehringhaus will
have to make.
Game Laws Revised.
Game legislation came in for con
siderable attention. Various bills were
offered which would have had the
effect of virtually destroying the ad
ministration of the game laws, but
the more drastic of these bills were
defeated. One of the bills enacted
abolishes the office of State game
warden and the office of inland fish
eries commissioner and turns this
work over to a single man to be sal
ected by the director of he Depart
ment of Conservation and Develop
ment, and who will not be paid more
than $3,000 a year. Another bill pass
ed cuts hunting licenses from 33 1-3
percent.
Professions Regulated.
Various classes and professions
have been “regulated” by legislation
encated at this session, including the
cosmetologists, nurses, lawyers, bar
bers, undertakers, and o’hers.
Banking and labor legislation also
came in for a grea' deal of a’tention
Many new banking daws were passed,
