Church Leaders Have
Control In the City of Raleigh. . . State Labor Union Men Doubt Report That
Union Labor Will Put Up Man to Contest in Ninth District. . . Teachers
Intervene Tomorrow
By Maxwell Gorman
Raleigh, N.C., Nov. 25—The State Teachers Assembly, which
begins its three-day annual meeting in Raleigh Wednesday night of this week,
promises to be one of the most largely attended of recent years. Several
hundred have registered by mail already. Contributing factors to the largest
attendance on the better co-operation of the county and municipal school boards
of the counties and towns, whereby the teachers who attend the meeting will be
paid for the time and their expenses assumed by the school boards.
Labor union men here do not credit the report that they may
yet put up a man to vote for in the ninth congressional election December 16th.
The impression here seems to be that, as an organization, labor will take no
part in the fight between Hoey and McCati (?) for the nomination. As to
Morehead, it does not appear that he can enlist much strength among the
organized labor ranks of the district.
Raleigh’s new mayor T.B. Eldridge, completes the trinity of
the most pious set of commissioners the city has ever known if prominence in
church conventions are to be classed as 100 per cent “piety.” Brother Eldridge
teaches a Methodist Bible class. Brother ?? is a Baptist Tabernacle deacon,
while Brother Pace is a pillar in the Presbyterian church here.
