PACK SQUARE PHONE -10 POLICE POWER CAN BE INVOKED 10 CLOSE CHURCHES IN THIS STATE Is Now a Prevailing Opinion- Judge Connor Explains That the Newbern Case Did Not Involve Question of the Validity of a Closing Ordinance. evidence that the state or Further, municipality does not lack authorthe close any church or other institution in the Interest of public health during epidemics, la furnished by Judge George W.

Connor, who has tried recently the only case of this character, and the principle, Judge Connor declares, was not involved. The Asheville government which "requested" the churches to close on the outbreak of Influenza was commended by the Greensboro Daily News for "requesting" because it could not, "under a decision of the supreme court of North Carolina, "command the churches to close. Following that editorial announcement the Raleigh correspondent of the Greensboro Daily News interviewed the state board of health which furnished the recent Craven The state board Interpreted case county case which Judge Connor. tried. las an evidence that Judge Connor, at least.

did not see the police power to close churches, and therefore missed the action against Mrs. L. Jenkins Christian scientist reader, who was defendant Writing to the newspaper corre-1 spondent, Judge Connor says: "My attention has called to a letter in the Greensboro boron Daily News this morning, in which you report that I decided in a case pending in the superior court of Craven county that an ordinance of the board of health requiring a church to be closed on account of the prevalence of fluenza was void--that a church could not be required to be closed. "No such case involving this proposition has been presented to me--I did a case in which certain defendants were charged with violation of an ordinance requiring closing thine of churches, etc. I held that upon the evidence offered by the state, defendants could not be convicted and gustained the motion to non-suit.

I WAS of the opinion, and so held, that evidence was not sufficient for the jury to find that this particular ordinance had been violated. The question as to the validity of the ordinance or the power of the board of health to pass this or a similar ordinance was not involved. think it 80 strange that you 'newspaper fellows' in reporting the actions of judges and courts do seem to realize the Importance to the public being accurate. I think much of the so-called criticism of the courts is due to inaccurate reports in the newspapers of what the courts do or fail to do. But I shall not preach.

I do not wish to be put in the position--and especially at this time--of having rendered a decision which may hamper the public health authorities with whom I sympathize and wish to co-operate, personally and officially. So far as I know no one has questioned the power of the board of health to pass the closing ordinances or the duty of all citizens to obey them. "I will thank you to state that you are now informed that the case a tried before me at New Bern did not involve the power of the board of health to pass the ordinance and that no decision relative to this question was made." Judge Connor makes the opinion nearly unanimous that the police power of state, municipality or any' other unit, can be invoked to any Institution that opens under North Carolina laws.

Most watch owners never give a thought to the amount of work a watch movement is called upon to perform, the millions of ticks it gives until it stops. It needs and deserves an occasional inspection, cleaning and adjustment.

Its monetary value, as well as its usefulness, justifies this occasional attention. We maintain a service departinent, under an expert watchmaker, to give proper attention to our customers' watches. This is an assurance of satisfaction to which you should give much weight, especially in making your decision from whom you will buy your watch. Our line of watches will merit a visit of inspection.
