Less Than One Cent Per Tar Heel

It would be tragic indeed for Eastern North remain in those areas. With each pawing year fewer Carolina if the current General Assembly fails to pa young women in Eastern North Carolina who receive the appropriations bill for $97,000 which would assure their nursing training elsewhere return to this area establishment of a state-supported school of nursing to follow their profession, in this section of the state.

Compared with the^ overall stale budget ,for the coming biennium, the proposed $97,000 is not a drop in the bucket. The expenditure of such an amount for a state-supported school of nursing would represent less tnan one cent per year per per.son in the entire state.

Without a state supported school of nursitig for this area, there is every reason to believe the critical shortages of nurses which exists now in Eastern North Carolina will become even more acute in the years ahead. .

For less than one cent per Tar Heel per year, the proposed state supported school of nursing for the East could be established during the coming biennium.

How can memberl^of the legislature, in good conscience, deny to the people of the Eastern section of the state this new facility which is so desperately needed to provide adequate medical care for citizens of the board area of the xtate?

Such an amount is not sufficient for the budget 'holri-the-iiners" to raise a big squawk about, other than the fact that it was not included in the budget recommendations made to the legislature. If the budget line is broken for a state supported school of nursing - for the East, it will have to oe broken elsewhere . . . and the total plus figure will not be a few thousands, but in the millions.

Even so, leaders of the med'cal profession of the stateas well as those in the Eastn cognize the need for the state supported school of nursing for this part jof the state. Toe proposal has not only been endorsed by medical associations in thi.s area, but the state med-cal association as well. It has tjeen endorsed by bo.sp-Tal boards, county govrrning boards, health officials

as well as civic and other groups who recognize the the position of leadership in Asia, need from the layman*s standpoint.

The need for nurses in the hospitals of this part of the state is appalling. ractica!ly every hospital in Eastern North Carolina needs more nurses than it can obtain. Further, the trend over tHe years has been for vvas taken to India againrt nis will,

That group was lieaded by Victor Bryant of Dur-bum. and la commonly known as the Bryant Comrnlsaion

Besides the elmlnent members of the eommltfees lUerullv Inin-dieds of other Ntulh Carollniiins .s.slstr(l in viirlou* stages of the studies, The Bryant Commission came up wltlt a complete re-wrUlng of the enUre eoiistiiution. Many of the proposed chatiges were clarification of language, llmination of diiplleiitlons, etc. But In explaining the final product Chairman Bryant said there were 5fl auhslnntlve changes It became immediately apparent that many legislator.s. even .Homi* ntembcrs of the commission, were not willing to accept all these recommendat ions.

The Bell (ommlttee, restrict ed in Its area of study to the courts, also proposed numerous RUbalantlve changes, ropreseut-Jng drastic revision of existing law and widely diverse conclusin* from those reachetl hy the Bryant Commlsslon with respect to courU

It Is Impossible to reduce the fccommendallons of either group or the dlffert'oces between them to simple language. One veteran lawyer-leglslator perhaps came as ntar doing that as anybody when h aid the "Bell Committee recommends a unified court under complete control of the Chief Justice, the Bryant Commission proposes a svslem of uniform courts largely under control of the General Assembly."

Deep rooted Husslan imperial-l.%t tradition and the awkwardlVlfi-Jlcxible dogma of Mtirxism* Leninism may lie colliding with ndki Impatience.

A rlue came early this year from the 21st party congrrs.i in Maxcow , a Hended by Communist lemiers from all over the world Developing at that moment was the Iraq Rtuafion, with Us look of golden opportunity.

To the Great Ruaalsna heir waa n rhanee to realise what the esais had vainly dreamed of Uw rentuiies sdfoothold on the Perfilan Gulf. 1o (he ('ommunist*. here wins n ehance to c.xtahltsh eentrolHng Inniience for the first time In an important Arab oil producing ith. But two things were In the way- Hu'sUn tradition and Comnmniat dogma.

M(vlng out nstlps.sly for centuries from the duchy of Mascovy, tlie nnsstans did not overleap laiul haulers in modern times, communism was lmjvsed upon natlon.s only where there wa.s bordering ('ommuntst territory. Turkey and Iran lie lietween tlie USHll, and Iraq,

Mo.scow strategy planners,, loo, would l>e wary of permitting an overt selxure of power which might bring a direct threat of World war. Communists are supposed to serve Moscow foreign lioUcy, not their natlonal interest*

"The longest journey begins with the first step." Charles S. Hhype, president of the American Bar Association, told the arolotte Conference on World eace Through Law the other day.

Attorney Rhyne spoke of man.s need for replacing the rule of terror wdih the rule of law.

Some see the campaign launched by the American Bar As.'O-c.at lop as highly visionary and irtipractlcal. Many said the same of a confederation of Ame-i icari .states 2<K) yeais ago and the United Nations scarcely a decade ago Yet the rallty of our situalion drmand.s acknowledgment of new Ideas. Old ideas In a world of hydrogen! bombs are not enough. Right now. a-s Gerald Johnson told the Raleigh Iiwtltute of Religion aeveral months ago, somebody needs to replace the E m Einstein's equation for energy with an L (Standing for lovci. The man who finds a way to replace "the forces of terror, des-pnlr and hatred In the inner .'paces of the human heart . . by the counterforces of cour-bge, hope and love" will be tomorrow's hero.

Of course, U is difficult to think in terms of world law. What can be done about natural differences existing between men around the world and their In-tltutlon.s, their varying development and needs. Yet the snlt-the.sls of law Is anarchy.

By the same token, as President Rhyne noted, the "rule of law la the antithesis ofCommu-nhrni":

If people accept the rule of law and place law above government they automatically thereby reject Communism. The I ule of law is both a peace plan and a plan to defeat Communism. When the rule of law pre

vails within a nation, order and stability and Individual freedom prevail and Communism is thereby defeated. When the rule of law prevails between nations, order and stability will then prevail and CommunLsm will be defeated as Communism can advance only when trouble, chaos fear exist.

The goal of the free nations goes far beyond the defeat of Communism, But It Is strlkinly tnie that man never defeated Eomethlng with nothing.

The free nations must have a mission over and above the negative objective of defeating Communism. They must provide a rallying cause for emerging peoples everywhere.

But many men will continue to say that the extension of law Is lmpo.sstble. They are the same soothsayers who insisted the world W'as flat They are the men who ridiculed the gieat moral and physical pioneers w'ho continuou.sly prove the "impossible" Is not impossible.

Therefore it is encouraging that President Elsenhower and Vice President Nixon, among others. have endorsed the Bar As-,nclation.s Idea. Arthur Larson, fomier Elsenhower assistant. Is head of a new World Rule of Law Center recently .set up at Duke University to investigate the practical applications of world law.

Bringing order out of disorder IS not visionary. It is supremely practical. And regional conferences the American Bar Association is holding around the United States are commendable becau.ro they denion.strate that pracUcal, hard-headed men do not believe world law* is Im-piacUcal

Men pioneering in these new fields of human relations constitute the best hope for lasting peace.

"the law is Inconsistent to me.

The trial judge solemnly ordered the remark stricken from the record, while the defense attorney regained his composure.

In the same courtroom, yesterday morning, a slip of the hand interrupted,,Md almost disrupted, the Judicial proceedings.

A witness in a case involving possession of non-tax-paid whiskey was. according to the story being told In the Court House, demonstrating how half-gallon jars of moonshine are carried under a coat. He was demonstrating with a jar full of the white whiskey.

He got the container under his coat and started to close the zipper. The jar slipped from his hands, out of the bottom of his coat and onto the courtroom floor. It smashed Into a mass of broken gla.ss and high-smelling whiskey.

Court attendants and other Court House employees mopped up the mess during a short recess. They could not, however, wash away the odor and there was little they could do to immediately repair damages to the floor.

"That white lightning, one authority on such things declared, "ate everything off that floor except the tile. It was enough to make a man seriously wonder how anybody drinks it and sur-\ives.

Another courtroom story which has become a personal favorite in recent day.s Ls one of an in-cdent in a New Bern court sometime ago. The principal character In the story was under cross-exaimination by an attorney who wa.s greatly lntere.sted in the defendants past criminal record.

"Now, it says here." the lawyer said, "that you were guilty of a crime several years ago.

I guess you think you were not guilty in that case.

"No, sir, I wasn't guilty, but the jury said I was. the defendant replied.

"Well, how about this other case you w*ere convicted in? Were you guilty then?"

"No, sir."

"But you were found guilty. Is that correct?"

"Yes. sir."

"There'.* another case down here on your r'ecoid. Were you guilty in that one?"

"Yes, .sir. I was guilty in that one. but you .said I wasnt.

"What do you mean I said you were not guilty?" the lawyer demanded,

"I hired you as my lawyer In that case and you told me I wasnt guilty. But. I was."

There is nothing to indicate how long it took the lawyer involved tc work nis way out of that one.

NEW YORK (AP)"tt isnt enough to have a. good idea you have to do something about it," said the man who changed the smell of^shoe polish.

At 43, Irving J. Bottner is Americas shoe polish kingand a one-man idea facto^.

Bottner decided that the 70-million-doUar annual industry wai static and addicted to old ways.

But how do you glamorize a thing like shoe polish?

"The way to make money in this country is to capitalize on pei^les natural laziness," said Bottner. You look for a way to make tasks easier and pleasanter."

He made a survey and found that*75 per cent of American men and nearly all womenpolish their own shoes, but regard the chore as arduous, dirty and unpleasant.

Bottner came up with a "stand-up shine bar for the home, and pushbutton cleaners that could be sprayed on shoes without staining socks or hose. But most women objected to the odor of shoe polish.

"Why should shoe polish have tc smell like slioe polish?* Bottner asked himself. He decided it didnt have to. He put his chemists to work. Their answer:

A revolutionary new kit that contains shoe cleaners in five different fragrances,

"Until now the average family has spent less than $2 a year for shoe cleaning preparations," said Bottner. "If we can raise that figure to $3 or $4. the Industry will have its biggest boom in history."

As a child, Bottners playpen was a wicker basket in the small Bronx hand laundry run by his |>arents. Life was hard. When he was 8, he went into the streets with a shoeshlning outfit and earned $2 to $3 a,week to help out his home.

He also went around the neighborhood knocking on doors, trying to drum up new business for the laundry.

"I learned early you cant sit and wait for opportunity, you have to go out and start knocking ycurself."

He worked his way through college, took an $18 a week job as a warehouse clerk with a frozen food fii'm. It was a new iield, crying for new ideas.

Bottners ideas soon won him advancement. His genius for finance as w'ell as promotion led to a better job with a paper bag manufacturer.

"I helped pioneer vacuum cleaners on wheels and thin-wall air conditioning units, he recalled. Going on doing old things in the same old way is a sure way to die of dry rot. The only real adventure in business is to develop new methods and new ideas

It was this challenge that led Bottner to accept his present post, and the boy who once got a nickel a shine is on the

path that leads to millions.

Opinions In Brief

"As governments grow to gargantuan size, the elected representatives come to the place where they cannot keep tabs on many public functions.

"While practically everyone realizes that the unemployed must be provided for, when they cannot obtain work, yet some Harford farmers are finding it most discouraging to be unable to secure farm help.

Coimresa Ls considering legislation to undo the Supreme Court decision upholding the right iH .stales to tax out of-i.tale Corporation. on their earnings within the .state.

There no agreement on how this .should l>e done, but it seems ptvssible for Congrss. to take some action under the eighth rnd tenth .ectloas of Article I of the Constitution.

John Dane, Jr., on behalf of W e U S Chamber of Commerce, suggested the Senate Small Business Committee iniUate leLla-tion stating that the decision placed an undue burden on interstate commerce; or provide a umfuim formula for the appor-Uonment of a oorpoiations taxes among Uie siafeg in which it doc. buslnes.; or leglxlhle other anangement, for the allocation of the right to tax.

BIIV CDRPDRATIO.N8 OB.IECT Corporations doing business in imwe than one ,*(.1x16 have two maiu aiaumt'uta agaiusi muRipi*

taxation;

Fir.xit; Earnings in exce.ss of 100 per cent of sales (or income may be a..sessed. Suppose Corporation X does business in State* A. B andiC. With each stale applying it. own formula for allocation of taxable sales and-or Inconie. the corporation may end tip paving taxes on ISO per cent of its sale. or income. "May?" Nay. probably Second Costs of complying With multiple taxes may be excessive. Take General Motor., which doe. busine.* in all of the fifty sUles and the District of Columbia. If each state levie. taxes on sale. or Income, it will have to maintain a staff of M or more tax cxiM'rU. plus audi* tcrs. plus coiuuiltants. plu. ty-puts, plus boy to run out for coffee. Obviously, your next Bulck win coat more So will everything cDe you buy from multi.tte compame.

OTHER .SIDE'OF COIN There are other dangers, Slate governments are not so high on Um a;ala a* 4# R* RifV*

rigging laws to benefit local companies in compellllon with uut-of-state corporation*. In fact, state law books are cluttered with such legislation, New' tax powers would simply give states a new c.Uib with which to beat out-of-state firms that cannot deliver vote..

(n the^her hand, there is a goo(r"lJ(iint for tbe Supreme Court's view. Mind you. this L not a legal discussion, but simply an evaluation of the economic consequences.

If the Supreme Court .hould reverse itaelf. or if new legislation should undo its rulings, then corpnratliyns could adopt this piactice;

They could incorporate or .set up plants in low-tax states, and m.iny .tafea today will pare taxes to attract new busine..es, E.ICAPF. MONT TAXE.S

Then they will do all Jhe busi-res* they can in other states, . escaping taxes if Congress or tlte Court provides a way. Thua a oompany with headcjuarters la

Dakota without paying taxes on either sales or gross profits, while a firm , domiciled there might, under state laws, pay taxes on both. In the end. all major corporations would move to low-tax .states, while high-tax states would be powerles. to tax them or the millions they pumped out.

Maybe the Nine Weisenhelm-ers are interpreting the Con-fUtution tn light of some cor-pcrate practices.
