S. No. 1. Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Nichols and their grandchild. Miss Margaret Lowndes, all of Atlanta, were injured, the exten was not known at an early hour this afternoon. It was said that the little girl was apparently the most seriously injur ed of the trio. She sustained a badly cut leg and a severe blow on the head (while Mr. and Mrs. Nichols were ’bruised considerably, the extent of their injuries not having been ascer tained.

He recallde that in the past several weeks he; had been compelled by iUneses to he away from the office The keen interesit of Mr. Taylor and! his fellow workers reflects the road m'ndedness of the people. During the four days i, n Whi'ch delegations were heard from more than half the counties of the State, there were ap- peals for roads which in the aggre gate would cost half as much as the withe system. Careful estimates show, ed that $75,000,000 in new construc tion had been sought by thes ©dele gations. Any previous opinion that the State is weary of roadbuilditng must be corrected. At the late ses sion of t'h!e General Assembly there were three months of solid shooting up the highway commission. But three months later there is a greater rush for roads than there ever has been. Th® people Wish to build more. The nmniciipalitaes made an effort before the 1933 assembly to get bafck some of the gasoline tax. There was a great deal of senthnenit for it, but th dominating objection to this was the constant jeopardy in wihich such a division of funds would place the State’s credit. Then the state was constantly ‘heijnig, ||clmlindleid ‘tlhj.lt might have to take over more lodai business than it could handle. The effort .to divide thleete funds with the cities failed utterly at the last. The letter of Mr. Taylor does (prove beyond any doubt that North Carolittila is still riding on hard roads and wishing to have twice as many miles of such construction a® she now has.

Council of State did not agree to the payments. The point of the story is that such fees seldom have any relationship to, those set by the P rofe ssion.

There is in the memory of most North Carolinians the famous Tri- State Tobacco Growers Cooperative Association. It was thrown into a re ceivership after several efforts to keep it going had failed. The re ceivership meant that it was dead as a noperating concern. The liquida tion was forced by member growers. They had failed to get what they rea sonably hoped to receive when they joined. Senator W. M. Person of Franklin county, was one of the attorneys. The Franklin lawyer could not have been rated a world beater. He was not ac customed to the kind of fees that are earned, by John W. Davis and Charles Evans Hughes. Mr. Person was paid $5,000 for his services. Judge Isaac M. Meekins thought the compensation was adequate.
