The rackets of organized criminals that flourish in the big cities attract so much attention are not unknown in degree in North Carolina cities. The most conspicouus instance recently came to light in Charlotte. In Charlotte' and other North Carolina cities and towns what is called "the lottery racket" has become a prominent industry. Lottery tickets find ready sale anywhere The details of this particular industry are not' familiar but it includes the sale of lottery tickets, which is illegal. So profitable is the -business to promoters that competition among them is fierce and it has aroused deadly an- era and under the corn- depression some of the landholders -students to learn to fight.

The foregoing is brought to the attention of our readers because it is of vital concern to every citizen of the State. The organized lawlessness which the Observer declares has become "brazen and blatant" and defiant in Charlotte is not confined to Charlotte or other of our larger cities. It will appear in some form in smaller urban settlements and in rural districts.

It has already appeared. So that we are all concerned in the Charlotte situation. Overcoming the evil there will aid in its suppression elsewhere. There is no inside knowledge of the official situation, but the infer- If this dredging can be brought Into the class of self-liquidating projects, a requirement to 'get money from the public works and it would seem to fall into that class some of the money could be used for that purpose, and a good purpose with large benefits to private landholders not only but to all the people in the vicinity of the in- sanitary conditions as well. The loans will be made at 4 per cent interest with 25 years for amortization.

Thirty per cent of the loans, or for labor purposes do not have to be repaid. That is, near a third of the loan is a gift. The re-, maining 70 per cent must be secured so that the loan will be good.
