PUBLICATIONS OF THE NORTH CAROLINA HISTORICAL COMMISSION LEGISLATIVE REFERENCE LIBRARY NORTH CAROLINA MANUAL 1933 COMPILED AND EDITED BY H. M. LONDON LEGISLATIVE REFERENCE LIBRARIAN RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA HISTORICAL COMMISSION 1933 PREFACE This volume is issued by the North Carolina Historical Com- mission in order to furnish in succinct form information about the State, its government and institutions, which otherwise would re- quire much investigation in many different sources. Unless other- wise stated, the data in each case is the latest available. Similar manuals were issued by the Secretary of State in 1903, 1905, and 1907, and by the North Carolina Historical Com- mission in 1909, 1911, 1913, 1915, 1917, 1919, 1921, 1923, 1925, 1927, 1929 and 1931. The demand for these volumes has been so great that all editions except those of 1925 and 1927 have been exhausted. The cut in the 1930-1931 and 1931-1933 appropriations of the His- torical Commission as a result of the general condition of State finances has compelled a sharp reduction in the size and scope of the 1931 and 1933 editions of the Manual. The sections, "Executive Departments," "Judicial Department," "State Departments, Boards and Commissions," "State Charitable and Correctional Institu- tions," "Miscellaneous," and "Constitutions," which are found in previous editions, have been omitted.
