Greenwood. Greenwood business
men have filed a strong protest with
the South Carolina delegation in Con
gress against the revenue bill/which
Congress is considering. Mayor Hart-
zog has sent telegrams personaUy to
the South Carolina senators and mem
bers of the house, together with mes
sages signed by leading farmers-in
this section. He wired the South Car
olina delegation as follows:
“The pending revenue bill Is causing
great anxiety to the business‘of the
country. It is tying up vast sums of
money, preventing new enterprises
and the enlargement of those already
started. It is placing the products of
our country at the mercy of specula

Florence.—Florence will be the host
of the forty-second annual state Sun
day school convention, according to
an announcement made here. At an
enthusiastic meeting of pastors and
business tnen, an invitation was ex
tended to the State Sunday School
convention to hold its annual conven
tion in Florence on June 3-5
The State Sunday School conven
tion, held annually, is without doubt
the largest gathering of religious ! to Germany so as to enable her
take measures to prevent Germahy
from declaring herself an insolvent
debtor or a bankrupt state.

immediately fix the amount of our
account against Germany which she
must be made to pay to the full limit
of her financial ability without con
sideration for her feelings. It will be
time enough then to decide about thg
method of payment,
“Whether the installments we shall
demand from Germany* be twenty,
thirty or forty billions of francs yearly
depends entirely upon our decision,
after an inVestigation as to what
amount Germany will be able to pay,
These payments would be guaranteed
by customs tariffs decided upon at the
conference, reserving for ourselves the
I right to raise such tariffs should Ger
many fail to meet her obligations.

should be forbidden, because their in
