Workers have set Thursday as a tentative date for the w&.k-out at *the Toledo Edison Com jMLny. • East May Lose Its Assembly Control i (fenturned from n»i Oue.) I political fights that threaten to defeat some of the more experienced candi dates for the 1935 assembly, according to reports being rceeived here, and send entirely new and inexperienced members instead. Take the first senatorial district, for instance, composed .of Camden, Cho wan, Currituck, Gates, Hertford, Pas quotank and Perquimans counties. This district was represented in the 1933 General Assembly by (State Sen ators Dudley W. Bagley, of Currituck county, and Lloyd E. Griffin, of Ed enton, Chowan county, both of whom were among the leaders in the sess sion, and who assisted in enacting legislation reducing property taxes on farms, homes and businesses. Both Senators Bagley and Griffin are now seeking renomination to the Senate from the first district in the primary Saturday. But reports from the dis trict indicate that both are 1 in danger of being defeated largely because of local opposition within the district to the sales tax and to the present school law. Several town and county school superintendents and understood to be making a particularly bitter fight against Senator Griffin becuase their salaries were reduced by the 1933 school law and because Griffin was active in writing it and securing its passage. The real facts are that the' salaries of school teachers and super intendents would have been reduced much more if it had not been for the fight made by Senator Griffin, in which he was backed by Senator Bag ley and Senator Carl L. Bailey, of the second district to fix the appropria tion for schools at a minimum of $16,- 000,000 instead of at only $14,000,000, as many others wanted to do. In fact, despite the fact that Sena tor of the 1933 school bill, his refusal to vote for it unless the appropriation was fived at $16,000,000 instead of only $15,000,000 is regarded here as being almost entirely responsible for the appropriation of the $16,000,000 for the schools. The House bill carried an ap propriation of only $11,000,000 for schools. Senator Bagley, as a mem ber of the conference committee on the finance bill, helped to iron out the differences between the Senate and House on that bill and secure the en actment the final bill that provided the revenue with which to pay the $16,000,000 appropriation for the schools and balance the state’s bud get, thus saving the state from de fault and bankruptcy. However, it seems that the element fighting both Senators Bagley and Griffin are opposing them almost solely because they voted for the rev enue act, which contained the sales tax, but without which the budget could not have been balanced and the $16,000,000 provided for the schools. In fact, if the sales tax had not been adopted, the General Assembly would have been forced to reduce the appro priation for schools ba-ck down to the House level of $11,000,000, the maxi mum amount of revenue which repre sentative Tam C. Bowie and his anti sales tax bloc in the House could find for school purposes. Since the counties in the first and second districts are almost entirely agricultural counties, and in which the farmers and home owners would have had to pay much higher property taxes if the sales tax had not been imposed to enable the State to take over the entire cost of supporting the schools, many here are unable to un derstand the bitte ropposition report ed to exist against Senators Babley and Griffin in the first district and Senator Babley in the second.

In these wireless reports they asked the field officials be appraised of their in tention to land to make repairs to some “minor trouble’’ to tib«tr ship.

Deputy Commissioner of Docks John McKenzie was there representing the mayor’s office, and Liteutenant Commander Robert ickie in Hcom mand of the naval air base at the field was on hand.

CJ DAILY DISPATCH, MONDAY, MAY 28,1634 Number Expected To In' crease in Next 'Few Months .as Work Spreads Daily Dispatch Rnrrna, In the Sir Walter Hotel. BY J. C. HASKERY T ILL. Raleigh, May 28. —More than 5,500 men are now directly employed on highway construction projects being carried on in the State with $10,500,000 received from the Federal government for highway work, W. Vance Baise, assistant State highway engineer, said here today. The number of men em ployed on highway jobs is expected to increase decidedly during the next month or two as more contracts are let. But unless Congress appropriates more money for the continuation of this work, the present program will again go back into the ranks of the unemployed Baise pointed out. “So far contracts have been let for projects totaling $7,980,000, leaving only a little more than $2,500,000 from thej present allotment of. Federal funds still to ibe expended,” Baise said. “Contracts *or this remaining amount are ready to be let as soon as the vari ous projects have been approved in Washington. Os this amount $262,000 has already been earmarked for ex penditures of the electrification of grade crossings in the State by the erection of electric warning signals, ■while some $300,000 is also being re served for thes urface treatment of, road construction projects now under way. So not very much of this re maining $2,500,000 will be available for new construction work.” Baise also pointed out that under the regulation of the Public Works Administration, 50 per cent of this money has had to be expended only on roads already contained wihin the Federal aid highway system, that 25 per cent has had to be expended with in the city limits of cities and towns on streets traversed by Federal aid highways and that only 25 per cent could be U3ed on “feeder” roads not al ready designated as a part of the Fed eral aid system. , “The State could easily use from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000 more of FeFd eral funds with which to build really needed new roads’’ Baise said. But present indications are that we will get only albout $2,300,000 more from the government. TALMADGE HOYLE IS SPEAKER AT CHURCH Talmadge Hoyle, son of a promin ent family of this county, spoke at the First Methodist church Sunday evening in relating his impressions and his experiences while in the is land of Cyprus in the eastern Medi terranean a year ago. He was sent there by a tobacco company to make an experiment as to the possibility of growing flue-cured tobacco in that land. He was asked to speak at the Methodist church evening service, which was ni charge of the young people. In closing, he reacT a part of the last chapter of St. Matthew’s gos pel containing the command of Jesus to his followers to carry the Christian message to all the world, and pointed to the island of Cyprus as one place affording an opportunity for service. Zollicoffer Will Lead Ticket, Managers Claim (Continued Irom Page One.) for the Vance county man, especially after the visits of the motorcades which have toured the district. Mr. Zollicoffer, who accompanied the mot orcades, has made short speeches at practically all the stops. Plans for the final week of the cam paign center arojund tbe headquartej-s jn Raleigh, with several .short trips 5 throughout the district having been planned. Another motorcade may al so be sent out in the final stages of the campaign, ' The Zollicoffer campaign has been free from bitterness, and it is believ ed that the Henderson candidate is in an ideal position to enter the second primary, since he has made no at tacks on any ,of his opponents, and has not alienated those who may not support him in the first balloting. Summer School Head ■» . Os University H Hi in Dr. Walter C. Jackson, da&p of the School of Public Administration in the University of North Carolina, is servjpg this year as director of sum mer schools of the consolidated Uni versity of North Carolina, which opens June 13. During the first term ses sions will be held at the Qhapel Hill Raleigh, and Greensboro units of the University, while the second term, which opens July 25, will be consoli dated at Chapel Hill. Potato Growers Talk Marketing Agreement Plan Norfolk, Va., May 28. (AP)—A hundred or more potato growers, shippers and representatives of coqp-, erative organizations in Eastern Caro lina and Tidewater VirgMiflh today dis cussed an agreement to join fin a mar keting agreement of earty Irish pota toes from the southeastern .itates in an effort to stabilize prides and pre vent surpluses from being dumped on; the market, with cons|qu< disastr ous effects on the financial return to* the growers. Representatives came*,. from the Maryland potato area and one Ala- Alabama shipper was present. Revised Forecast Puts Zol licoffer In Second Place (Continued rrom page One.) , dates, if the primary should be held today, is about as follows: * I s>. t ft 1 if P P © S « •• O 2h V N K Chatham .. 1,506 950 1,200 200 Johnston .. 3,300 1,200' 1;400 300' Franklin .. 850 1,350 1,800 50(1 Nash 500 5,200 1,000 300 Randolph .. 1,400 1,800 1,000 300 Vance 600 200 4,000 Wake .4,300 6,000 .4,2.00 ,2,0001 Total: ...12,600 16,700 14,600 3,600 There is a possibility, some pf the Zollicoffer leaders admit, that by the end of this week the Cooley and -Pou total may be reversed and Pou may get into the lead. But they are con fident that if Pou does pick up enough strength to get into second place he will get this strength from Cooley rather than from Zollicoffer and .that Zollicoffer will still be in second place. Many of his friends, however, feel that he still has a chance to .get first place, although none of the political olb-servers here in Raleigh think that possible. It is conceded here, how ever, that there is still a possibility that he, rather than Cpoley, may get into second place if Pou gets into tha lead. While the Zollicoffer forces concede Johnston, his home county, and Chatham county to Pou, they main tain that he will not carry Randolph county, as his forces say he will, but that Cooley or Zollicoffer will carry it. They also maintain that Pou will not be able to get a majority over Cooley here in Wake county, and that his vote will be small in Vance, Nash and Franklin. The Cooley forces are claiming they will carry almost every county in the district with the exception of Vance, and that Cooley has a chance to get a majority in Pou’s home county of Johnston. But most observers here think these claims are exaggerated, although conceding Cooley will get a heavy vote in his home county of Nash, a large vote in Franklin and probably 5,000 votes here in Wake, or about a third of the Wake vote of 15,000. The Pou backers maintain, however, that Pou made large gains this past week and will make still more this week. They feel certain he will not only carry his home county of John ston by at least 5,000 votes, but that he will also carry Randolph and Chatham counties with a margin of at least 1,- 000 votes in each. They are also con fident he will get at least 7,000 votes here in Wake county and thus make sure of a lead over (both Cooley and Zollicoffer. “Machine” Not With Pou The claims being made by both Cooley and Zollicoffer that the “ma chine”, apparently meaning the State Highway and Public Works Commis sion, is working for Pou, are being strongly discounted by recent develop ments and are believed to. be ■. helping Pou and hurting hjis opposition.] For most observers hferl Are convinced that Chairman E. B. Jeffress of the State Highway and Public Works Commission and most of those in the, engineering department of the com mission are quietly supporting and working for Cooley rather than Pou, in spite of Cooley’s charges that they ,are supporting Pou. It is no secret ( here that Jeffress did not want Pou in his department at any time, that there was never much cordiality be tween them and that he was decidedly relieved when Pou resigned. from the prison department, there is probably more anti-Pou sentiment in: the offices of the Highway Commis sion here than anywhere else in Raleigh. So the charges that the Highway) Commission “machine” is working for Pou are toeing pooh-f poohed here and in many other coun ties. ; The Cooley forces have also been maintaining that Senator Josigh W J Bailey, as he himself has maintained., has been playing -hands off in this fourth district campaign. Thqy have, even intimated that Herbert Gulley, one of Bailey's chief lieutenants and; formerly one of his secretaries, has, been working for Pou. But Senator Bailey was here Saturday and con ferred with J. M. Broughton, one of the most vocal Cooley supporters here? and the iiqpression here in Wake< county and Raleigh is that many of Senator Bailey’s supporters are open ly active for Cooley. The report that Gulley is active for Pou is also said to have emaniated front} Cooley head-, quarters here and is believed to have been put out as a smoke screen. The, Pou supporters vigorously deny that; Gulley is giving any support* to ,Pou p and maintain that he is really work ing for Cooley. Much Trading Reported There are also indications that much trading is going on between the supporters of all three leading candi-» dates and considerable double-cross ing. While very few believe that either Evans or. Palmer Bailey will get many votes outside °f Wake county, most observers agree that they, have been cutting into Cooley more than any other candidate and thus, have been helping both P° u and Zol licoffer. » Another Place Where Increased Auto Sales Are Being Greatly Appreciated (.WORLD. fat a Glance By LESLIE EICHEL New York, May 28.—There is a growing belief in Ne«| York that President Roosevelt is inviting reac tions to his program. For example, when word seeped out that the staff of the NRA would be reduced when Congress adjourned, busiess itself began to question the advisability. Months of labor will be required to work out codes, to iron out inequalities. Actually, additional com petent persons are needed rather than fewer. of course labor looks witht alarm bordering on fear to any re duction of the policing forces of the NRA. Labor sees such forces as in adequate now * * * Another Example The President may welcome, also the Darrow report, as terming his ac tions to-date as ‘too conservative”.
