CALHOUN He Did All He Could to Run Oil Mill and Crush Seed The following communication appeared in Wednesdays State: A news itenvttpeared in your issue of Thursday regarding revoking the license of the Clio Oil & Fertiliser Company by the food administrator. A few facts as known here by residents I feel it should be given in Justice to the mill in question. In the first place A. L. Calhoun, Jr., is sole owner of the mill and a man of large means and Interests. He is one of the largest planters in the Pee Dee section, running probably upwards of a hundred plows on his own lands. He runs one of the largest furnishing stores in the eastern part of the state and is president of a banking institution. He is rather retired in his disposition and but little is done by him to get in the public view. Mr. Calhoun conformed to the request of the government last summer and did not lay by a supply of coal for his fall and winter needs as was his custom, relying solely on thei assurance of the government that an adequate supply would be available at government figures. With the congestion that came on transportation lines, he found himself with a scant supply of fuel and it impossible to secure shipments at any price. A few cars that were headed this way were confiscated by the railroads. Donoho plantation with three foremen (the property of Mr. Calhoun) was called into action and wood was cut and efforts repeatedly made to get it transported by the Seaboard Air Line Railway to his mill here, a distance of six miles (a siding is located on the farm), but without re-1 ip| ; - Waahingt Wfi ' ' Richmoai I I, I 1 ' !

He then started wagons to hauling the wood six miles and was able to gin part of the time, but an adequate supnl> was impossible to keep steam for all machinery running. All in all, Mr. Calhoun hauled < more than 500 cords of wood with his farm hands, a distance of six miles, and a great many tons of saw dust from the mills nearest by, which in one instance is at least five miles, for use as fuel.
