NORMAN L. SLOAN, former
North Carolina State athlete, has
joined the college coaching staff in
the capacity of head basketball
coach and football assistant.
Gambling Tax Proposed
A move is now on ip Congress
to levy a tax on gamblers as a|
revenue measure. Congress is al-'
ways quick to jump at ar.v propos
al that will produce more money.;
The t. x would include a 10 per,
cent excise on all bets on sporting
events, elections, or other contests
made with bookmakers or others
who accept wagers for a profit.
It would seem that with all the
crime and scandal so prevalent
now, much of it reportod in gov
ernment. that such a proposal
would not be considered by a
group of congressmen and senators
who arc sincerely concerned over
the present dangerous and decay

vf rnment to pass a bunch of

applied for a carpenter’s job. They
told me, he said, that I would have
to go back to Augusta and join a
union, paying an initiation fee of
$108, with subsequent dues of $5.50
per month. He drifted around
from one crew to another talking
with the men—and looking. He
will report the glaring waste oL
manpower he saw to the Atomic
Energy Commision.
Such loafing as reported is the
reason costs will continue to
mount. And the requirement that!
he join a union and pay mitia-!
tion fees of 108 would guarantee
him, no doubt, a job permanently,
regardless of how much he loafed.
The government is making the
rules for employment, calling the
plays and paying the bills. The
still unanswered $64 question is

Early In 1930 • resident of thia
community had one of those com
mon-place accidents that can raise
so much havoc with our everyday
life
While attempting to lift a heavy
can of oil, he strained his back to
the extent thaj the pe*a^vhich fol
lowed rendered him practically
helpless. He was instructed to stay
in bed. but even ten days complete
rest failed to correct or improve his
condition.
He was then advised that he
would not be able to work again
unless he submitted to a spinal op
eration. The same day he decided
to consult another doctor rather
than have the operation.
He went directly to the office of
Dr. C. J. Hart, local Chiropractor,'
who found the cause of his trouble!
and corrected it in a very short i
period of time. His response was so'
great that he returned to his job
16 days after Dr. Hart gave v thej
first treatment, and yet another
doctor was said to have made the!
statement that an operation was
necessary.
Millions of Americans are turn
ing to Chiropractic treatments for
their backaches and obtaining re
lief and complete recovery with
this modern science. If you are suf
fering with backaches, strains,
rheumatism, arthritis, sciatica or
neuritis, you are invited to have a
consultation with Dr. Hart. You
can be free of those nagging back
aches, let Dr. Hart advise you how
to get rid of them. v —advj
