TEM OF REFORMS ON THIS
BASIS.
Washington, Nov. 28.?The full
significance of the American "four
points" proposed by Elihu Root and
adopted by the arms conference to
guide its discussions relating to
China, is coming to be better understood
as the Far Eastern negotiations
pass through the "accepted-inprinciple"
stage and approach decisions
on specific subjects.
At first regarded as largely a reiteration
of general principles which
had long been sanctioned on paper
" by all the powers, the "four points"
now have, in fact, become the foundation
on which China's friends in
the conference hope to erect a system
of reforms that will in many respcts
reverse completely the prac>y
. tices of the past and present.
In this far reaching development
Ik* - the American delegation has taken
the leadership by making known in
|? a" decisive manner that it regards
the Root resolution as something
vastly more than a few finely turned
diplomatic phrases. The American
pi v position is that in: accepting the
"four points," the participating na.
- tions have bound themselves solemn*
ly to apply in a concrete way the
- long . professed principles of fair
dealing toward China and to proceed
without subterfuge to give China as
!\
i?.... great a degree of independence as
conditions will warrant.

LIBERTY BONDS SOAR
TO NEW RECORDS
J
CI
New York, Nov. 29.?Seven of the r
Liberty bond issues soared to new ii
high records of the year on the
jttock exchange today as the result h
of further heavy buying, which in- s
eluded various out-of-town sources, e
In the first two hours, sales of p
these bonds approximated $5,000,- f
000 par value, this representing
more than half of the entire deal- I
ings in the bond list.
The first fours were strongest,*
rising $1 per $100, to $97, while the
tax exempt 3 l-2s rose 74 cents to
96.80.
Other new maximums included
the second fours at a gain of 42
cents to 96.30, the first 4 l-4s, 40
cents to 97.40, the second 4 l-4s, 80
cents to 96.94. the third 4 l-4s. 46
cents to 97.80, and the fourth 4 l-4s
78 cents to 97.28.
Victory notes also were active and
strong, the 4 3-4s, selling at par
thereby duplicating their recent
high quotation.

Cheater and Honea Path.
One of the deciding games of the
State championship footiball series
vill (be played Friday afternoon when
Chester and Honea Path meet in
Greenwood. Chester has much the
>est record and ought to win by a
food margin acording to local dopesers
who have seen the two teams
>lay. However, the game will not be
:asy for either side. It is expected
hat a number of AJbbeville people
nil attend.
Heard in Honea Path?
According to some one who once
ived there or to some one who is enrious
of the town's football record,
t is said that the following repartee
an be heard on the streets of Honea
Jath immediately after any games.
First Boy?Betcha my daddy made
nore touch-downs than yourn.
2nd Boy?Betcha 'e didn't.
3rd Boy?Shucks, mine made
noren both of yourn.
Etc., in the manner of small boy
irgument. As stated this is not given
is fact but merely as what "they
ay."
It Could Be Worse.
The constant lament in Abbeville
bounty about the cotton crop is not
is bad as it might be, according to
he census figures of cotton grinned.
Jinned to November 14 in this couny
were 15,115 bales, against a total
xop of 24,644 bales last year. That
s almost 75 per cent of normal. But
oak at McCormick county, 4,000
ind odd bales, against more than
4,000 last year. Orangeburg is xn
he same boat with 17,000 this year
tgainst 69,000 last year. In that
ounty the newspapers are full of
he riff's sale notices. Bamberg has
;inned 3,816 bales against 18,194
ast year. Berkeley 823 against 5,'32
bales last year. Beaufort, which
3 not a cotton county, at its best,
howed a gain over last year, 387
gainst 192. Calhoun made <*neeventh
of a normal crop, 4,844
laginst 28,791. It's bad enough but
'things are not always what they
eem," milk masquerades as cream,
