| McDonald has heant it and doesn't
believe it. Governor Ehriughaus gets
that suggestion oftener than anybody
does, and he has no occasion to do
anything to help one of his most per
sistent critics.
If that session should come hero
again, it would he sure to get into a
row over the liquor question. Mr.
| Graham knows how lie stands on that
issue and Mr. Iloey has told the world
where he always has been. Dr. Mc-
Donald was less dogmatic abon! that
’ subject in Raleigh last winter than no
was about any other. He had very
great convictions on taxation, tint
none for public purposes on liquor
1 taxes. He observed after the assembly
i j adjourned that cases and restaurants
-j were soiling very high kick wines and
-I beers and drunks were following. In
r i deed, while wets and drys are trying
- to say whose liquor causes these
I j drunken drivers, everybody s wine
- may he helping.
I since I lieutenant Governor Graham
thinks the governor should see the
, need of a special session and cotirage
l ntisly call the body to Raleigh; and
l inee Dr. McDonald perceives embar
rassment for the State if it. docs not
; pass some enabling legislation, Gov
ernor' Ehriughaus can give Mr. Hoey
a big boost by teaming with him
i on this call. Mr. Hoey may have to
summon the assembly here if he is
! elected, governor. He has been State
. and national legislator. He knows
when communities are well off.
i Raids On Drivers
Don’t End Drunks

! may have been drinking its own
brandy, a concoction said by drinkers
to he as good as anybody's and bet
ter than the cheap stuff in Virginia.
Two things stand out in these fig
: tires: The highway patrol is running
in these drunken drivers. Patrol sta
tistics on highway deaths do not dis
! close any startling proportion of
drinking in these mishaps, but many
accidents may be the indirect result
of liquor. Certainly, with the roads
full of drunken pilots there would be
many times more danger of fatal ac-
I cidents.
The first big attack of the patrol
was on useless killings. It is too early
to set up claims, but the doubled pa
trol and the many times multiplied
activity of that organization must
show in the reduced killings, the pa
trol feels. And every time a driver
■ loses his license he advertises the
fact. The renders take heed.
The patrol reports now almost ex
clusively drunken drivers, but there
is just us vehement a campaign a
gainst careless and reckless drivers
as against the drunks. Undoubtedly
these reckless persons cause more
killings than liquor does and they are

very much harder to convict. Ihe
statutes do not. define careless and
reckless persons very pat. Rut liquor
had the faculty of making testimony
against itself.
The reckless driver gets mother
chance after his first offense and
therefore has a double advantage
over the drinking man. Still the pa
trol will have considerable discretion
in making arrests. Two practicing
physicians, one woman, and a lawyer
or two have lost their licenses. The
professional man deprived of his car
for' a year finds making a living a
very difficult thing.
The publication of the names or
those men whose licenses have been
revoked, the officers feel, is doing
more good than the courts can do to
moke highway travel less fatal.

standard and went on a managed cur
rency.
In the meantime, the United States
government by its purchases had bid
the price up to such heights that
China could sell its silver at a profit.
Then, the United States turned upon
China once more.
It stopped bidding. Rightly. It had
been bidding the {trice up against
itself.
And the bottom dropped out of the
world market.
Wake Is Watching
Franklin Election
(Continued from Page One.)
Douglass and Clarence E. Mitch HI.
from Raleigh, and E. M. Thompson,
from Garner, voted dry every time,
but new candidates are declaring for
county control. If Franklin votes it.
Wake will be tempted and four votes
in the assembly might balance
a lot of power. If Franklin goes dry,
as the leaders of that cause believe it
will, Wake’s wet candidates will be
careful how they talk.
Representatives of whisky houses
have been watching the Franklin poll
ever since the campaign began. But
there has been little or no excitement
in the fight. The election was delay
ed by court action which undertook
a restraining order that later was
overruled in the Supreme Court. If
the wets carry Franklin, the failure
of their injunction will be accorded
first, place amongst the reasons for
the overturn.
Nine of 14 Victims of

agreed this morning that the inquest
would boa mere formality in the
full investigation as to why the At

through a safety rail and into the
draw, which had been opened for a
tug and barge.
"All we can do is to say they are
dead, sign the death certificates and
say if was an accident,’’ Mayor Eld
er declared.
The identified dead were announced
as follows;
Mrs. Anne W. Duncan. Pitlsboro.

L. O. Alford, 38. Five Points. N. C.
Mrs. J. W. Massey, Hopewell.
Captain .John B. Belch, Hopewell

ALFORD WAS KNOWN HERE
BECAUSE OF MANY STOPS
L. G. Alford, driver of the Grey
hound bus that crashed through a
drawbridge near Hopewell, Va,. yes
terday and drowned 1-1 persons, was
well knowm here. His run was be
tween Raleigh and Richmond through
Henderson, and the bus had a regu
lar stop in this city. Officials and
attaches at the Union Bus Terminal
ihere knew Alford and were very
fond of him. He was last here on
Saturday on run north, from
which he was returning Sunday when
the fatal accident occurred. He was
among those dead.
